Chapter 293 The Relics of a Jindan-stage Monk [Subscription Request]

in the valley.

When Zhou Mingde saw Ruan Hongzhuang suddenly pounce on Zhou Chun, his face changed drastically with shock, and he hurriedly and loudly reminded Zhou Chun to be careful.

However, Ruan Hongzhuang acted too suddenly, and was less than twenty feet away from Zhou Chun. As soon as he spoke, he appeared beside Zhou Chun.

In this case, using the Purple Mansion stage's cultivation to deal with a cultivator in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment can be said to be easy at any rate.

This is what Ruan Hongzhuang thought in her heart.

It was only after she came out and saw Zhou Chun approaching that she suddenly came up with an idea to capture the hostage.

Before, in the underground mausoleum, she was forced by the situation to agree to Zhou Mingde's proposal and cooperate with him to deal with the green-faced zombie.

However, with the example of Shen Borong in front of her, she didn't believe in her heart that Zhou Mingde would really share the results of this tomb exploration with her.

So after she reached the ground, she looked at Zhou Chun approaching and instantly had the idea of ​​taking Zhou Chun as a hostage.

Judging from the fact that Shen Borong’s previous proposal to send three juniors to help was rejected by Zhou Mingde, it is clear that Zhou Mingde has an extraordinary concern for Zhou Chun, his junior.

If they could capture Zhou Chun as a hostage, they wouldn't have to worry about Zhou Mingde ruing his actions, and they might even be able to use this opportunity to force Zhou Mingde to give up some of their gains.

However, she had a good idea and the timing of her attack was also very good, but she never thought about whether she could really capture Zhou Chun.

All the good things she thought of were based on capturing Zhou Chun as soon as possible.

But in fact, she failed when trying to capture Zhou Chun!

At that time, seeing Ruan Hongzhuang suddenly rushing towards him, Zhou Chun's face changed drastically and he was terrified.

But his reaction was very quick. He immediately opened his mouth and spit out a golden rainbow which shot towards Ruan Hongzhuang who was rushing towards him, while his body quickly retreated.

Until now, Zhou Chun has not spent much time on other secret arts, and only focused on practicing the "Flowing Golden Rainbow" secret art.

After years of diligent practice, he has mastered this secret technique to an extremely profound level, and can now use it at will, just like the "Golden Tripod Mysterious Light".

Moreover, the power of "Golden Rainbow" at this time was several times stronger than when he first started learning it.

Ruan Hongzhuang decided to capture Zhou Chun because of a flash of inspiration. At that time, she did not think that with her Purple Mansion stage cultivation level, she would fail against a cultivator in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment.

So by the time her spiritual sense sensed the power of the golden rainbow and realized that something was wrong, it was too late for her to change her tactics.

But as a golden rainbow flashed, the shield held up by Ruan Hongzhuang was instantly covered with cracks, and her moving figure was forcibly stopped by a great force.

Although the pause was only for a moment, she quickly attacked again and shot a beam of fiery red light at Zhou Chun.

But it was this moment of pause that made her completely lose the chance to capture Zhou Chun!

However, under Zhou Mingde's order, the Fire God Jackal immediately pounced on Zhou Chun and blocked her attack.

Seeing this, Ruan Hongzhuang felt extremely regretful, but she turned around and ran away without hesitation.

It turned out that before she took action, she had already sent a message to her descendants, asking them to immediately use the formation flags to open a formation passage for her to leave.

But something happened that made her miscalculate again.

The formation passage opened by her descendants suddenly disappeared just as it appeared.

The person who stopped her from escaping was Shen Borong's descendant!
Obviously, the formation provided by Shen Borong at the beginning was not as simple as he said.

In fact, the real control over the formation is still in the hands of his descendant.

"Shen Shiming, what did you do?"

With her retreat cut off, Ruan Hongzhuang could not help but look at the junior Shen Borong with shock and anger.

At this time, facing her angry rebuke, Shen Borong, the junior, also looked at her with a face full of shock and anger and said: "I would like to ask Senior Ruan what you want to do?"

"Where is my great uncle? Senior Ruan, what was your intention in attacking Daoist Zhou just now? Why do you want to leave alone now?"

It turned out that he had already received Shen Borong's instructions that unless Shen Borong personally asked him to open the formation, anyone who tried to open the formation channel to escape would be interrupted immediately.

Moreover, even if Shen Borong had not given this instruction, Ruan Hongzhuang's behavior just now was enough to make him do so.

After all, the green-faced zombie that chased after him looked extremely powerful. Ruan Hongzhuang, as a cultivator in the Purple Mansion Stage, wanted to escape alone, so he certainly disagreed.

But what he never expected was that his great uncle Shen Borong, who had entrusted him with the task, was actually dead!
And what he did just now also blocked Ruan Hongzhuang's way of survival!
Ruan Hongzhuang was so angry that she yelled, "You idiot! You didn't stop the guy who killed Fellow Daoist Shen, but you came to stop me instead. How could Fellow Daoist Shen have such a stupid junior like you!"

"What did you say? My great uncle is dead!"

Shen Shiming was shocked and looked at Zhou Mingde with shock.

But Zhou Mingde didn't say much at this time, he just used his magic weapon to attack him.

At the same time, the green-faced zombie pounced on Zhou Mingde, who was the closest and weakest.

This chaotic battle was dizzying to watch, as the changes were too fast.

But the results came out very quickly.

Facing Zhou Mingde's attack, Shen Shiming had no power to resist and was killed in one blow.

Zhou Mingde, with the help of the third-level defensive talisman and protective magic weapon, was able to withstand the attack of the green-faced zombie.

On the other side, Zhou Chun, who was protected by the Fire God Jackal, quickly activated the formation flag to open a formation channel after Shen Shiming's death.

Then Zhou Mingde threw Shen Shiming's body at the green-faced zombie, and he quickly rushed towards the formation passage.

The green-faced zombie itself has low intelligence and acts entirely on instinct.

When Shen Shiming's bloody corpse was thrown in front of it, it, which was seriously injured, immediately hugged the corpse and drank the blood.

This also allowed Zhou Mingde to successfully break out of the formation with Zhou Chun.

When they got outside, Zhou Mingde immediately let Zhou Chun leave first, and then he and the Fire God Jackal went to chase and kill Ruan Hongzhuang who had also escaped from the formation.

At this time, Zhou Chun was also filled with shock.

He didn't know what happened in the underground mausoleum and why Zhou Mingde wanted to kill Shen Borong.

However, out of trust and obedience to Zhou Mingde, he immediately activated the "Flowing Golden Rainbow" secret technique and escaped.

With Zhou Chun's weakness gone, Zhou Mingde no longer hesitated and began to pursue Ruan Hongzhuang relentlessly.

At this time, there were no traces of mortals in the territory of Yang State, so neither of them had to worry about whether the green-faced zombie would slaughter other living beings after coming to the earth.

They didn't care about this matter. In Zhou Mingde's opinion, only by killing Ruan Hongzhuang and silencing her could he completely reap the spoils and prevent the news from leaking out.

In order to survive, Ruan Hongzhuang was naturally unwilling to sit there and wait for death.

After such a pursuit, Zhou Mingde was ultimately unable to save Ruan Hongzhuang's life, as she successfully escaped from the pursuit.

Zhou Mingde's attempt to silence the witness failed, and even though he was unwilling to do so, he had no choice but to accept the reality.

He did not stay in Yang State for long. After a short rest, he quickly returned to Dayun State.

Not long after Zhou Chun returned to the market, Zhou Mingde also returned safely to the market.

"Grand Elder, what happened in the underground mausoleum? Why did you fight with Shen Borong, Ruan Hongzhuang and others?"

In the market town, Zhou Chun waited for Zhou Mingde to return. While he felt relieved, he couldn't help but immediately ask the doubts in his mind.

In fact, Zhou Chun was not unprepared for the internal strife among the three Purple Mansion Stage cultivators.

After all, countless examples in the past have proven that in the face of truly precious treasures, it is difficult for monks to be willing to share their gains with others.

But the situation at that time made Zhou Chun full of doubts.

Because he witnessed with his own eyes the scene of Zhou Mingde and Ruan Hongzhuang rushing out of the underground mausoleum, and at that time it seemed that the two were still in a cooperative state.

Facing his series of questions, Zhou Mingde waved his hand with a tired look and said, "I know you are anxious, but now is not the time to talk about this. I will tell you the details after I recover!"

After saying this, he went into the secret room in the yard alone to meditate and recover.

He meditated for a whole day.

After all his magic power was restored and his mental and physical conditions were relieved, Zhou Mingde took out the storage bag and spirit beast bag obtained from the green-faced zombie to check his harvest.

With anticipation in his eyes, he first opened the spirit beast bag and put his spiritual consciousness into it.

Because the owner had long since passed away, both the spirit beast bag and the storage bag could be opened at will.

The spirit beast bag in Zhou Mingde's hand was undoubtedly the most advanced item he had ever seen.

The internal space of this spirit beast bag is extremely large and is divided. It is estimated that it can hold five spirit pets or five different kinds of demon insects at the same time.

What's rare is that the material of the spirit beast bag itself is very tough, and it is unlikely to be damaged by the attacks of a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

A spirit beast bag like this one with partitioned internal space is much more difficult to make than an ordinary spirit beast bag, and is hard to buy on the market.

If this spirit beast bag were to be sold, it would probably be more expensive than an ordinary third-grade top-grade magic weapon.

After carefully checking the spirit beast bag and finding no demon beasts or demon insects in it, Zhou Mingde put it aside and opened another storage bag.

The storage bag of a Jindan stage cultivator is naturally extraordinary.

This storage bag not only has a huge internal space, but also has unique protective restrictions. When the owner is still alive, even if an outsider gets the storage bag, it is difficult to open it without damaging the contents.

However, the owner of the storage bag had passed away for many years, so Zhou Mingde naturally opened the bag without any effort.

And when he put his spiritual consciousness into the storage bag, a smile soon appeared on his face.

He just raised his hand and shook it, and everything in the storage bag fell out.

Compared to the huge storage space of ten meters square inside the storage bag, there are actually not many things contained inside.

However, treasures are always more valuable in quality than in quantity.

Among those few things, it can be said that every one of them is a treasure!

It has to be said that the methods left by the tomb owner caused Zhou Mingde and his men to suffer a lot.

But the treasures he left behind were also very rewarding.

In the storage bag, Zhou Mingde found a large number of well-preserved classics, including various books such as martial arts, secret techniques, illustrated books, travel notes, etc.

Even two instruments of Taoism were found among them!
Not surprisingly, Zhou Mingde easily found the skills of taming beasts and expelling insects mastered by the tomb owner in these classics. In fact, many of those classics were about the inheritance of this skill.

But now is not the time to study these classics.

After taking a quick look, Zhou Mingde turned his attention to other treasures.

Perhaps considering the damage caused to the treasures by the long period of time, the treasures left by the tomb owner were specially sealed in jade boxes.

Zhou Mingde first opened the two jade boxes made of the best materials. The contents did not disappoint him. They were the two magic weapons left by the tomb owner.

The two magic weapons were a dark blue flag and a khaki protective shield.

Both of these magic weapons were quite spiritual. Even though they had been sealed for who knows how many years, after Zhou Mingde opened the jade box that sealed them, they instantly emitted spiritual light and automatically flew out of the jade box.

However, Zhou Mingde was well prepared for this scene. He immediately reached out and used his magic power to grab the two magic weapons and suppress them.

Although he is a cultivator in the Purple Mansion Period and cannot refine magic weapons, it is not difficult for him to suppress these two ownerless magic weapons.

After studying the two magic weapons for a while, Zhou Mingde put the magic weapons back into the jade box and sealed it up.

Then he opened the other dozen jade boxes one by one, and the things sealed inside came into his sight.

What was somewhat beyond his expectations was that among the dozen or so jade boxes, there were not many that actually contained magical instruments and spiritual objects. There were only four.

In the four jade boxes, there were two third-grade top-grade magic weapons, three spirit crystals, and a fist-sized piece of golden ore.

The rest of the jade boxes were filled with various insect eggs!

The tomb owner was obviously very concerned about those insect eggs. Not only did he seal them in a jade box, he also used unique sealing objects for them.

Some insect eggs are sealed in spiritual jade, some are sealed in gold and stone, and some are specially sealed using pills as containers.

Under the protection of these special sealed spiritual objects, even though countless years have passed, most of the insect eggs inside still retain vitality and can be hatched.

From this, it is not difficult to see that the owner of the tomb actually hoped that the monk who obtained his relics could inherit his insect repellent skills and prevent this skill from being lost.

After counting to this point, Zhou Mingde couldn't help but sigh: "It is worthy of being the relics of a Jindan-stage cultivator. Although there are not many things, their value is immeasurable!"

Then he suppressed his joy and opened another storage bag.

That is Shen Borong’s storage bag.

Now he wants to verify one thing.
