Mortal: Joining the Star Palace at the Start

Ji Qing moved quickly, unleashing a sword light with a wave of his hand, his aura fierce and unstoppable.

Ning Xue was prepared. She raised her hand and tossed it lightly. After a flash of blue light, a blue round shield swept towards Ji Qing.

The two clashed, unleashing a deafening roar, sparks flying everywhere, and the clanging of metal echoing endlessly, resulting in a stalemate for a moment.

"Whoosh!"

Ning Xue acted quickly, preferring to abandon the magical artifact rather than die here.

Upon seeing this, Ji Qing let out a cold laugh.

With a thought, thunder roared, and after a flash of lightning, his figure vanished.

When he reappeared, he was already in front of Ning Xue.

"go!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a golden sword light swept across, and before Ning Xue could react, her body was instantly cut in two.

Before she died, her pupils were wide open, and her face was filled with terror.

She couldn't believe that Ji Qing's escape technique was so fast.

"【Lightning Escape Technique】, who exactly are you?" Tang Hong coughed up blood, his fear evident in his voice.

Lei Xiu is a rare sight in the Chaotic Star Sea.

But that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

If he remembered correctly, there was a faction in the Inner Star Sea called the Divine Thunder Sect.

They cultivate the path of thunder and learn thunder magic.

However, this sect is very weak. The sect leader, who is in charge, is only at the mid-stage of Core Formation, and there are only a dozen or so disciples under his command.

Having figured this out, Tang Hong recalled Ji Qing's methods and quickly denied it:

"No... no, you're not from the Divine Thunder Sect, absolutely not."

Although the Divine Thunder Sect is the location of thunder cultivators.

However, the transmission of its internal techniques has been severed.

In addition, resources are scarce.

The people of the Divine Thunder Sect absolutely do not have the ability to cultivate such a powerful cultivator.

"Practice thunder magic and learn swordsmanship."

"What other tricks do you have up your sleeve?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Qing glanced at him coldly and said indifferently:

"You talk way too much nonsense."

Dead people don't need to know so much.

Upon hearing this, Ji Qing swept his sword horizontally, and a golden sword light swiftly slashed towards Tang Hong.

Tang Hong felt a heat on his neck. When he looked down, his head tilted slightly, and then he was plunged into boundless darkness.

"Phew, it's finally resolved."

Ji Qing breathed a sigh of relief, but his expression was quite unpleasant.

Killing the wood demon had already consumed a lot of my magic power.

Furthermore, maintaining the shapeshifting spell also requires magical power.

Now that he has killed these three guys, his magic power has been almost completely depleted.

If they continue to make moves...

He's probably going to suffer a major blow.

Ji Qing took a deep breath, raised his hand and gently waved. After a series of sword cries, the flying swords behind him surged into his body and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

"I wonder if these guys have anything good," Ji Qing murmured, his curiosity piqued.

He first took out a pill and swallowed it.

After his complexion gradually improved, he took stock of his spoils.

First and foremost is Xiao Mi's.

Ji Qing opened his storage bag, took a look, and was immediately pleasantly surprised.

"Not bad, not bad, you've got some skills."

Xiao Mi himself was quite capable, and his possessions were extremely abundant.

It contains not only thousands of spirit stones, but also several pills that are useful for Core Formation cultivators.

It is worth noting that Xiao Mi also possessed an antique of considerable quality.

This ancient treasure is a small bell, entirely azure blue, with several demon heads painted on it, their faces extremely ferocious.

Ji Qing looked at him, a thoughtful expression appearing in his eyes:

"Targeting ancient treasures related to spiritual consciousness? That's quite interesting."

Ji Qing held it in his hand and played with it for a while, feeling quite satisfied.

It seems that Xiao Mi did not choose to use this ancient treasure after realizing that his divine sense was powerful.

Ji Qing continued the search.

However, the result was that Xiao Mi had nothing else besides this ancient treasure.

"Poor wretch."

Ji Qing silently complained and changed his target.

"I wonder what that old guy Tang Hong has up his sleeve."

As the owner of Wanbaodian, Tang Hong should have a considerable fortune.

With this question in mind, he opened Tang Hong's storage bag and his eyes immediately lit up.

Sure enough, there's something good.

Let's leave aside the spirit stones in Tang Hong's storage bag for now.

There are quite a few elixirs, magical artifacts, and ancient treasures.

What caught Ji Qing's eye was that this guy actually had a fluorescent crystal.

"It was definitely worth the trip," Ji Qing said with a smile, clearly extremely happy.

Fluorite is an extremely precious material.

If it were incorporated into a magic weapon, it would definitely increase the weapon's power by 30% to 40%.

It is a rare treasure.

This item is extremely precious even in the entire cultivation world.

Ji Qing dared to say that this treasure was no less than Geng Jing, and might even be superior.

Ji Qing took out a jade box and carefully put away the fluorescent crystal.

Afterwards, he pasted several sealing talismans on the side of the jade box to prevent the spiritual energy from leaking out.

"Now I'm considered a small-time tycoon."

Ji Qing chuckled and put the jade box into his storage bag. Then he went to the woman and began to rummage through it.

Half an incense stick later, Ji Qing looked at the array manual in his hand and began to read it with great interest.

Ning Xue didn't have many treasures; most of them were formations.

The only thing she could show off was the book on formations in her hand.

This book on formations records many profound formations, which are quite powerful.

Now Ji Qing thought to himself that if he had the chance, he would definitely try to refine it.

After collecting the treasures, Ji Qing set off for the pagoda.

A square table stood in front of the pagoda.

Two exquisite jade boxes were placed on the table.

Ji Qing glanced at them, first using his divine sense to investigate. Seeing that there was no danger, he picked up one of the jade boxes and opened it to look inside.

"Huh!? What is this!?" Ji Qing was a little incredulous.

He looked at it intently again and was immediately overjoyed.

"Geng Jing!" Ji Qing blurted out.

Inside the jade box was a piece of Geng essence the size of a walnut.

Geng Jing was entirely silver, radiating a dazzling luster, and was extremely beautiful to look at.

"It really is Geng Jing!"

Ji Qing felt a surge of excitement.

He never expected that there would actually be Geng essence inside this jade box.

He originally thought that Tang Hong was just saying it.

Who would have thought that such a thing was actually inside the jade box?

"Haha, this is truly a stroke of luck!" Ji Qing said with a laugh.

Don't underestimate this small amount of Geng essence; it's more than enough to equip ten flying swords.

As long as he equips ten flying swords with Geng essence, he will be able to face cultivators of the same level without fear.

Han Li and Wen Tianren will all be trampled under his feet.

"Tang Hong, you really are my lucky star."

Ji Qing sighed and quickly took out the Geng essence, replacing it with a jade box.

He then took out several talismans and stuck them on the side of the jade box before putting it into his storage bag.

"What could this be?"

To be honest, Ji Qing was a little curious.

Since Geng essence appeared in the jade box,

Logically speaking, the treasures in the other jade box should be of good quality.
