Chapter 697 Running Free

[Optional mission completed, reward: Armor +1]

Looking at the long-lost completion reward, Jiang Beiran felt a little emotional, but only for a moment.

Now he has collected the six Emperor Gu, but nothing unusual happened when he put them together. He was probably paving the way for something in the future.

However, after Jiang Beiran's research, it seems that the strengths of these six Emperor Gu are not in combat or poisonous gas. Even in one-on-one, they may not be Lao Wang's opponent.

Of course, it is also possible that they were dug out of the formation before they were full, and they were not completely intact at this moment.

"Tsk, it's a waste to just leave it in the jar like this."

The six Emperor Gu have different images, and Jiang Beiran couldn't help but wonder if their abilities were also different.

And to prove this, experiments are definitely indispensable.

'As for Yangze... it should be fine.'

For Gu, the human body is an ability amplifier. How powerful it is will be known once it is put into a human body.

It's just that the power of the Emperor Gu is too great, and most people shouldn't be able to bear it, so Qu Yangze's body must be the best "test vessel".

But Emperor Gu is still too unfamiliar to Jiang Beiran after all.

So he decided to study the Emperor Gu carefully first, and at the same time continue to train Qu Yangze to make his body stronger to ensure his safety to the greatest extent.

After putting the six Gu cultivators into their respective containers, Jiang Beiran took out an arm covered with runes from the Qiankun Ring.

This is the talisman used as the formation eye in the super large formation of Qi State.

It forms exactly the same body as the other arm, legs, heart and head of the previous five countries.

Although these stumps had no function, Jiang Beiran felt that since they would be used as formation eyes, they must have something special, so he collected them and took them with him, intending to take them back together to study and see what the quilt was like.

What's so special about the body that was cut open to serve as an eye?

"Master Jiang is here."

At this time, Wen Zhanhong, who saw Jiang Beiran approaching at the assembly point, raised his hand and said hello.

Jiang Beiran stepped forward and cupped his hands to several people, "Thank you for your hard work, everyone."

"Compared with Master Jiang, all our hard work is nothing." Ling Zhen waved his hands and looked in the direction of the formation and said, "I don't know if it was my imagination. The moment the formation was broken, the Yin Qi seemed to be coming.

It’s heavier than the previous times, is it okay?”

"Well, it is indeed more troublesome to solve, but fortunately, I have taken care of it, please don't worry."

"Master Jiang is still very powerful. Without you, even if this formation is broken, the harm will be greater than if it were not broken."

Weng Xinzhi on the side nodded after hearing this and said: "That's true. The evil spirit of this formation is really too strong. I don't know what kind of crazy person thinks."

Listening to the words of several ninth-level formation masters, Jiang Beiran couldn't help but look thoughtful.

After guessing that the Gu clan might have tenth grade Gu masters, Jiang Beiran had to think about whether they might have various mysterious arts that were more powerful than those in the Black Dragon Continent.

Formation is naturally one of them.

Because judging from all the current information, the Gu tribe was driven out of the Xuanlong Continent hundreds or even thousands of years ago, and Jiang Beiran's guess is that the Xuanlong Continent was the most powerful in ancient times.

Maybe the Gu tribe has inherited many skills that have been lost here in Xuanlong Continent.

"Master Jiang, how are the preparations for the Xuanxing Tower you mentioned? I can't wait." After relaxing, Yin Xing looked at Jiang Beiran and asked.

"It's almost here, please wait a moment."

"Okay, we'll wait for as long as it takes." Several ninth-level formation mages laughed at the same time.

Recently, after they returned to their respective territories, it can be said that they are all out of sorts. The one who only focused on formations has disappeared. After a little free time, they always want to tinker with other mysterious arts. This has never happened before.

.

So when Jiang Beiran came to inform them, they all looked forward to it with great anticipation.

"Then please wait patiently for the good news." Jiang Beiran said with a smile and cupped his hands.

After seeing off the four ninth-level formation masters, Jiang Beiran got into Fei Mansion and arrived at the ancient ruins. This was the place he chose to build the Xuanxing Tower.

Since the last time he refined the earth-level elixir with the help of the Holy Light, Jiang Beiran has determined that this Holy Ruins is definitely the best place for the development of a Xuan Art Master.

But there is still a problem that needs to be solved, that is how to convince those strange beasts.

After all, alien beasts absolutely do not welcome cultivators into the ancient ruins. Although Jiang Bei was an accident, if there were too many such surprises, those alien beasts would probably not agree.

Arriving at Yongzhu's tribe first, Jiang Beiran found it in the nest with ease.

"Holy Messenger!? You're finally here. Last time you left in such a hurry that we didn't even have time to thank you."

As soon as he saw Jiang Beiran coming over, Yaozhu stood up and said, his tone full of sincerity.

"Being busy dealing with various things, you should know that you are not the only ones who have been attacked by those Gu cultivators."

Yaozhu nodded, and then said: "You humans have suffered a lot this time."

"It's a serious loss." After speaking, Jiang Beiran raised his head, looked at Yaozhu and said with a smile: "How about it, if you want to counterattack humanity, now is the best opportunity. Do you want to try it?"

After hearing this, Yaozhu was stunned. Although he had always believed that Jiang Beiran was the holy envoy who came to help the beasts, he was still a human being, so he still treated him as a cultivator.

Now that I hear that he actually encouraged himself to fight back against humanity, it feels really... a bit strange.

"Do you really think so?"

"Of course you are serious, we are friends, how could I lie to you."

After hearing this, Yaozhu was obviously still in disbelief, and his big head was full of doubts.

"It seems that you don't quite understand the situation outside." After Jiang Beiran finished speaking, he spread out the map of Xuanlong Continent on the ground.

"Today, the human kingdom is in a state of fragmentation. It is as powerful as Wei, Tan, and Tong, but it retains a lot of strength. It is as weak as Zeng, and its high-end combat power has suffered great losses..."

As for Yaozhu, Jiang Beiran's long speech sounded to its ears like: "Bala, bala, bala, this one is strong, bala balaba, this one is weak, bala balaba..."

So when Jiang Beiran finally asked, "What do you think?"

Yaozhu first looked thoughtful, and then replied: "So we should kill the weak ones first, right?"

"No." Jiang Beiran, knowing that it was impossible for Yongzhu to understand, shook his head, "No, even if we kill the weak ones, then several other powerful countries will join forces to attack you, and you still won't be able to stop them."

When he heard that the answer he had racked his brains to come up with was rejected by Jiang Beiran, Yaozhu's expression was obviously very lost, and his big head was full of sadness.

"What do you mean, Holy Envoy?"

"Join forces with weak countries, expand the territory of survival, and wait for the opportunity."

"Whose timing is it?"

"..."

"I'll tell you when it comes."

After hearing this, Yongzhu pondered for a while, and finally raised his head and looked at Jiang Beiran seriously and said, "But I can't decide these things. How about you go find Yingzhu, he can make more decisions."

"That's fine."

Jiang Beiran nodded cheerfully. After all, he didn't expect anything to come out of the discussion with Yongzhu from the beginning. The reason why he didn't go to Yongzhu directly was because he felt that his relationship with it was not good enough to discuss such a relevant matter.

It was about the fate of the alien race, so I used the Taoshu as a springboard.

Now that "Springboard" has understood its meaning, Jiang Beiran naturally does not need to continue talking to it.

Shaking his hair vigorously, Yao Zhu yawned and said, "I haven't seen those big eyes for a long time. This time I will go with you."

"That would be perfect."

Nodding, Jiang Beiran and Yaozhu left its tribe together.

While walking on the road, Yaozhu suddenly asked Jiang Beiran: "Did you just say that those things that cannot be killed are called Gu Xiu?"

"Yes." Jiang Beiran nodded, "They use Gu to enter the Tao, and they have strong recovery ability and toxicity."

"Oh, yes! I've heard of those little bugs."

"I wonder where the chief has heard of this?"

"I forgot too."

"..."

Fortunately, as the saying goes, there is no disappointment without expectations. Jiang Beiran never thought that he could get any valuable information from Yaozhu, so naturally he would not feel disappointed.

"Oh! I remembered it!" As they were walking, Yaozhu suddenly raised his neck and shouted, "My grandpa told me."

"What does the old beast say?"

"It says it's best not to mess with these bug-playing people when you see them, as they can easily cause disaster. I used to think that there was nothing to be afraid of, and I could just trample them to death. Now it seems that these bug cultivators are what my grandfather is talking about.

.”

"Did your grandpa say anything else?"

"Others..." Yaozhu thought for a moment, "It seems there is, but I forgot."

"..."
