The two sat down cross-legged, talking about swords and swords, concentrating to the extreme, their ears did not hear anything else, and everything around them seemed to have nothing to do with them.

Zhao Yige was left aside, and there was nothing to say, but fortunately, Xiao Buming sent spiritual wine and spiritual food, poured himself and drank it, and he was happy.

Hours passed.

Guo Ziming stood up solemnly, bowed and saluted, with a solemn expression, "Today, I have heard Brother Shu's high talk, and I am deeply respected, but I hate to meet too late." ”

Zhou Shu hurriedly blocked it, "Brother Guo said it, it's just a small personal experience, it's not worth mentioning." ”

Guo Ziming insisted on finishing the ceremony, and then got up, "Brother Shu's sword path is a school of its own, and it has found a new way, I have never heard of it in Xia, the truth is simple but profound, and after I go back, I need to retreat for several years to understand." ”

He glanced at Zhou Shu with emotion, then took out three jade bottles, and said sincerely, "In the Dao of Suitable Talents, it seems that I heard that Brother Shu has a lot of respect for Quanyuan Dan, and I happened to carry three bottles below, so I gave them to Brother Shu." ”

Zhou Shu thanked him, and took it without pretentiousness, and was satisfied.

He said that it was for the Spring Source Pill, not to mention that the pills refined by such monks could replenish spiritual power, but more importantly, the Yuan Qi in the Spring Source Pill could protect the qi veins, so that he could continuously use the third change of the Sea Treading Technique, which was very important before he reached the Jindan realm.

As for the sword path given to Guo Ziming, most of them are deduced from deduction, and they do have a lot of benefits for enhancing sword intent, and they can be regarded as taking what they need.

"You are glad to leave me, my master, aside, and the wine not with me. ”

Zhao Yige's face was slightly drunk, and he glared at the two of them angrily.

Guo Ziming hurriedly sat down and picked up his wine glass. "My bad. Brother Zhao. Come, you and I are drunk for three days. ”

The two pushed the cups and changed the lamps and invited Zhou Shu to join, and Zhou Shu smiled and said a few words, and left.

The next day, before Zhou Shu walked to the test venue, he got a shocking news.

The Red Leaf Sect cultivators who had signed up all abstained and no longer participated in the Treasure Hunting Conference.

It was a surprise. But it is also reasonable, even Yuan Lin, one of the top Jindan Realm in the Red Leaf Sect, did not succeed, and the other cultivators in the sect have even less chance of obtaining the magic weapon, and by taking advantage of this, they can also save the face of some sect masters.

In short, it was a good move for the Red Leaf Sect, but those cultivators who wanted to see the excitement were quite disappointed and scolded for several days.

Things happened one after another, and a few days later, the backer also announced that he would withdraw from the treasure hunt.

It all started with the previous day's competition. Guo Ziming, who was invited by the backer gate, announced his abstention in public on the test platform. even said that his sword intent was not as good as Shu Zhou, and there was no point in competing.

What kind of character is Guo Ziming, everyone thinks that he is a disciple of Jianlu, a genius sword cultivator, but he says that his sword intent is not as good as Shu Zhou?

Almost everyone didn't believe it, but the facts were clearly in front of them, on the test table, Guo Ziming bowed very solemnly to Shu Zhou, as if he regarded Shu Zhou as the teacher, and then left and went back to Xiaolian Mountain directly.

For a while, there was a shock in the test room, and the news soon spread throughout the city.

Accounts differ and opinions vary.

"This ...... Guo Ziming actually admitted defeat in person. ”

"Could it be that the two of them have some private deals?"

"Don't talk nonsense, what kind of person is Guo Ziming, that is the sword cultivation of Jianlu, extremely arrogant, as long as he can fight, he will definitely fight, he said that if he admits defeat, he will really lose. ”

"This Shu Zhou...... What the hell is the origin? ”

If Zhou Shu's victory over Yuan Lin was just a trick before, it made people still have some ideas, but now Guo Ziming admitted to his face that he was not as good as Zhou Shu, and he didn't even compare, the effect was completely different.

The next day, the backer gate sent out Tie Zhenmu.

Tie Zhenmu, one of the candidates for the next sect master of the mountain gate, a genius in refining the body, a body of steel and iron bones that is no less than the defense of the fourth-order high-grade magic weapon, is known as a humanoid magic weapon.

He knew that Zhou Shu's sword intent and magic weapon were powerful, and it was difficult to attack, so he put on a defensive posture at the beginning, intending to win with defense, compete in cultivation, and consume Zhou Shu's spiritual power, this strategy is good.

But on the test bench, his steel and iron bones failed to last four rounds under Zhou Shu's continuous outbreak, and his skin was broken, if Zhou Shu hadn't stopped in time, the steel and iron bones would have turned into a pile of iron slag.

Tie Zhenmu conceded defeat.

After that, the backing sect soon announced its withdrawal, and the two major sects withdrew one after another, and the other cultivators who signed up also followed one after another and no longer participated.

At this time, it seems that the only one who still insists is the Liuxia Sect.

A vigorous treasure hunting conference turned out to be like this, which many people did not expect.

"This Shu Zhou of the Condensation Realm is really strong, it is difficult to beat him one game, and it is impossible to win two games in a row. ”

"Forget it, we can only see. ”

"Haizhonglou is only afraid that it will rise this time, two real geniuses. ”

In Xixiang Valley, Zhou Shu ushered in several guests.

"Shu Keqing, at this time, you are in the limelight in Lingyu City, I don't know what your plans are in the future?"

The cultivator who spoke was Xie Qinxin, Zhou Shu had never dealt with her, she looked like she was only in her early thirties, she was dressed in exquisite clothes and showed nobility and extraordinary, the golden light was faintly radiant, and her lips were dotted with two points of crimson cinnabar, and she spoke softly, but there was no lack of majesty.

Zhou Shu's expression was respectful, "Inform Elder Xie that the junior has no plans for the time being, and it is best to concentrate on cultivation." ”

He already knew that Xie Qinxin would come to him, and he also knew what it was for.

"Cultivation is excellent. ”

Xie Qinxin nodded lightly, "However, Elder Keqing's resources are too small, otherwise, if you join the Liuxia Sect, I will give you the identity of the Great Elder, you can concentrate on cultivating the retreat, you don't need to worry about pills and so on, and you don't have to participate in the treasure hunting conference over there, all the Liuxia Sect will abstain." ”

Zhou Shu thought for a while, "The younger generation is still suitable for the identity of Keqing, so it is very satisfying." ”

"Oh, don't think about it?"

Xie Qinxin frowned slightly, his eyes looked at it intently, and an imperceptible coercion followed.

Zhou Shu was not afraid, and calmly opposed him, "No need, Elder Xie." ”

Zhou Shu didn't have a good impression of the Liuxia Sect, and he didn't plan to leave the Heyin Sect, this had already been decided, and no one could change what was decided. As for Xie Qinxin, he had already prepared and had nothing to fear.

Xie Qinxin nodded slightly, and accepted the coercion, "You don't want to join the Liuxia Sect, maybe there is a misunderstanding, I won't explain much, you don't choose this path, you might as well consider another path." ”

Zhou Shu was slightly suspicious, so easy to deal with?

Xie Qinxin said slowly, "Since entering the mountain, you and the Hao family sisters have been in harmony, why don't I fulfill you and let one of them be your Taoist companion? ”

"Huh?"

"Ahh

Two exclamations came from behind Xie Qinxin, and Hao Ruoyan and Hao Yiyun were stunned in surprise.

"Please take back the commandment. ”

Hao Ruoyan glanced at Zhou Shu, walked to Xie Qinxin, and slowly bowed down. (To be continued.) )
