Chapter 222 Xiao Wu sacrifices

Entering the majestic hall, hundreds of officials were already standing in the hall.

Shi Quan and Zhu Zhuqing followed Xue Qinghe to the position below the throne and stood there. However, Dugu Bo did not stand beside Shi Quan, but stood beside Xue Xing opposite Shi Quan.

This move also explained to all the civil and military officials present that Dugu Bo did not support Xue Qinghe.

"See Your Majesty."

Soon Emperor Xue Ye came and sat down in the hall, and Shi Quan followed everyone and saluted Emperor Xue Ye.

Emperor Xueye looked at Shi Quan with a smile, "Master Shi, I haven't seen you for a long time. I heard from Qinghe that Master Shi will go to the Star Dou Forest to obtain the soul ring in the near future. The empire can prepare a hunting group for you to help you hunt down the soul beast. , I wonder if Master Shi needs it?"

Shi Quan smiled and saluted and said: "Your Majesty, Shi Quan accepts it wholeheartedly. This time I go to the Star Forest, Grandpa Dugu will go with me, so I won't bother Your Majesty."

Emperor Xue Ye nodded, "Okay, Master Shi has contributed the Zhoutian Cultivation Method to the empire this time and has made a huge contribution to the empire. I wonder what kind of reward Master Shi wants?"

Shi Quan said with a smile: "My subordinates are very interested in soul guides recently. Soul guides have a wide range of uses. If we can develop a combat-type soul guide specifically for soul masters, it will definitely be of great benefit to soul masters and even the entire empire." .”

Emperor Xue Ye burst out laughing when he heard this, "Master Shi is indeed the pillar of the country, and everything he does is for the country and the people. Since Master Shi is interested in the soul guide, I naturally can't be stingy. The empire's treasure house There are many soul guides, Master Shi, you can borrow them for research, and the empire will provide you with the necessary consumables."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Hearing this, Shi Quan also smiled.

"In addition, Master Shi Quan will be conferred the title of Duke, and he will be rewarded with thousands of soul coins. He will not pay homage in the future."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Shi Quan saluted again after hearing this.

Shi Quan's reward was over, and all that was left to the imperial court were trivial matters. As the saying goes, if you have something to report, you will report it to the court if there is nothing.

Morning time was quickly over.

"Brother Shi, come with me."

Looking at Shi Quan's eyes, Xue Qinghe naturally understood and led Shi Quan towards the imperial treasure house.

Under the leadership of Xue Qinghe, a group of four people quickly arrived at a tightly defended hall.

"Brother Shi, please wait a moment, I will order someone to get it for you."

Even the crown prince Xue Qinghe cannot enter or exit the imperial treasure house at will. Those who can enter and exit the imperial treasure house are absolute loyalists of the Tiandou Empire and absolute deadliest servants.

If you want to take out something from the empire's treasury, in addition to Emperor Xue Ye, you must have a warrant from Emperor Xue Ye.

Once you have the warrant, you cannot enter the imperial treasure house. Only those who guard the treasure house can enter the treasure house.

They can only wait outside.

After waiting for almost a quarter of an hour, an attendant came to Shi Quan and the others with a brocade plate covered with a layer of red cloth.

Shi Quan looked at the brocade plate with burning eyes and opened the red cloth.

Suddenly, the entire palace was shrouded in strong precious light.

It was an extremely strange thing, its entire body was crystal clear blue and had a three-dimensional triangular shape. The whole thing seems to be carved from sapphire and is only about the size of a palm. The crystal blue light is filled with precious light, and strange energy fluctuations are constantly coming from it. On this blue triangle, there are lines like water waves. These lines don't seem to be carved, but more like they are alive. Circles of blue light are flashing, and the palace is filled with light. Baoguang.

"Is this the Vast Sea Universe Cover?" Shi Quan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked up and down.

Dugu Bo on the side was also a little surprised. He had heard the name of the Vast Sea Universe Shield, but this was the first time he had seen it. Such a sight was indeed a national treasure.

The reason why Emperor Xueye agreed to Shi Quan's permission to borrow the Vast Sea Cosmic Shield was, in addition to Shi Quan's personal strength, the most important thing was Shi Quan's terrifying wisdom.

The cultivation techniques created by Shi Quan are too shocking, and the Zhoutian cultivation techniques will improve the strength of the entire empire.

At such a young age, he was able to create a new extreme soul ring theory, plus these two techniques.

This allowed Shi Quan's influence to reach a very terrifying level in the entire soul master world.

If Shi Quan can really develop a soul guide for combat, then the empire will directly have the power to compete with any force.

Moreover, these soul tools should be left alone. It would be absolutely worth the money to capture Shi Quan's future potential with such a number of soul tools.

And it is just a borrowing now. If the stone falls into silence in the future, he can also take it back in the name of borrowing.

There is no loss for the empire.

Shi Quan raised his hand and grabbed the Vast Sea Universe Cover, and the familiar voice of the system sounded in his mind.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the special item Poseidon's Heart, which triggers the looting of the treasure chest."

"Ding, it is detected that the host has successfully placed Xiao Wu under house arrest. The loot box can be triggered again. Do you want to integrate the trigger of the loot box?"

"yes!"

Shi Quan answered without hesitation.

"Sure enough, it worked." Shi Quan thought to himself.

Soon he knew what good things the integrated treasure chest could contain.

Put the Vast Sea Universe Cover into the treasure bag.

The purpose of this trip has been achieved, and Shi Quan does not intend to stay in the palace for a long time.

When leaving, Xue Qinghe sent Shi Quan to the entrance of the palace.

"Brother Shi wishes you a smooth journey. Get a satisfactory soul ring."

Shi Quan nodded towards Xue Qinghe and waved goodbye.

Farewell to Xue Qinghe, Shi Quan directly communicated with Dugu Bo and Zhu Zhuqing and returned to Sunset Forest.

When returning to the Ice and Fire Eyes, the three of them first returned to the cave at the bottom of the spring. After making sure that Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan were still absorbing soul bones, they returned to the Ice and Fire Eyes.

"Shi Quan..."

Xiao Wu, who was sallow and skinny, appeared in front of the three of them. As soon as they met, he cursed fiercely at Shi Quan.

When Shi Quan heard the words, his expression was indifferent, he raised his right hand, and in the next second, his powerful mental power turned into a phantom dragon shadow that appeared behind Shi Quan.

"Phantom Tsukuyomi!"

Xiao Wu's expression immediately fell into a dull state.

In the bloody fantasy space, Xiao Wu was horrified to find that she had been trapped on a cross without knowing when, unable to move her limbs.

Countless phantoms appeared all around, and each phantom was himself.

And there is a person standing in front of each phantom, it is Shi Quan.

Xiao Wu wanted to open her mouth to speak, but found that she couldn't make a sound at all.

Shi Quan was holding a sharp blade, cutting her flesh and blood. The huge physical and mental pain made Xiao Wu's expression distorted. Despite the crazy struggle, she couldn't move at all.

outside world.

But in an instant, Xiao Wu lost consciousness and collapsed on the ground. Even if she lost consciousness, her whole body was still convulsing, as if she had experienced something terrible.

"In just a moment, it was possible to torture the soul of a hundred thousand year old soul beast to the point of collapse?" Dugu Bo raised his eyebrows slightly.

Zhu Zhuqing looked at Shi Quan in confusion, "Xiao Quan, did you release Xiao Wu just to torture her?"

"Of course not." Shi Quan shook his head, "Zhuqing Xiaowu is the gift I prepared for you."

"Ah?" Zhu Zhuqing looked at Shi Quan in confusion.

"Zhuqing, have you ever heard of a hundred thousand year soul beast transforming into a human being?"

Shi Quan then told Zhu Zhuqing about Xiao Wu's origin.

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes were full of shock and disbelief when he heard this, "You mean Xiao Wu is actually a 100,000-year-old soft-bone charm rabbit?"

"That's right." Shi Quan nodded and said, "And her soul ring and soul bones are just right for you."

Zhu Zhuqing quickly calmed down and said, "With my current strength, I'm afraid I won't be able to absorb Xiao Wu's 100,000-year-old soul ring and soul bones, right?"

"It's really not possible under normal circumstances." Shi Quan looked down at Xiao Wu with a smile on his lips, "But as long as she sacrifices her, you can perfectly absorb her hundred thousand year old soul ring and soul bone."

"This Xiao Wu hates us so much, how can she be willing to sacrifice to me?"

"Of course I have my own way."

Shi Quan smiled, and a shadow appeared behind him. Five soul rings, four silver and one red, appeared below him, "Xiao Meng, help me!"

"No problem Quan." Xiao Meng's hand floated down and landed on Xiao Wu's forehead. At the same time, the fifth soul ring under Shi Shen suddenly lit up.

"The fifth soul skill, Dream Soul Captures the Heart!"

Silver-gold light rose up and enveloped Xiao Wu, becoming increasingly intense.

"Huh?" Xiao Wu's painful expression quickly changed, her brows straightened, and her face began to look happy. She closed her eyes slightly and shouted softly, "Third brother!"

Not long after, Xiao Wu's voice turned into a scream, "Third brother, be careful!"

"No, no, third brother, leave me alone and leave quickly!" The expression on his face was very anxious.

After a while, it turned into despair, and then into determination.

"Third brother, forget me!"

The next second, pink light continued to rise from the body, and the surrounding green light was quickly dissipated and turned into dark red. At the same time, it turned dark red, as well as the skin all over the body. It was crystal clear like a ruby, with rich blood-colored flames burning on it.

"A real sacrifice!" Zhu Zhuqing looked at the scene in front of him in shock.

"Third Brother!" Xiao Wu still closed her eyes tightly, her expression distorted, and she was completely unaware that the burning pain in her body was completely integrated with the dream, making it impossible for her to distinguish between reality and illusion.

Her mental power was suddenly locked on Zhu Zhuqing, and Zhu Zhuqing, who was locked by her mental power, was also shrouded in red light.

As for Xiao Wu, her physical body is gradually turning into an illusion.

"Third brother, I love you..." Xiao Wu, who closed her eyes, leaned forward, then frowned and opened her eyes with trembling eyelashes. In her sight, the person shrunk by a huge red ring in front of her was not her third brother whom she longed for.

But Zhu Zhuqing.

"Zhu Zhuqing!" Her expression suddenly changed, and everything in front of her clearly showed that she had been deceived.

"No no..." Xiao Wu screamed and turned around suddenly to look at Shi Quan.

"Shi Quan, you must die a happy death!"

"You must not..." The voice stopped suddenly, and the figure was completely unreal. I still have the expression, but I can't make any sounds.

"I can only blame you for being with the wrong person." Shi Quan looked at the scene in front of him calmly.

Facing the enemy, you can show mercy, but you can never be soft-hearted...
