Chapter 29: Eternal Life (Third Update)
With a slight cough, Zhao Zhuo took out hundreds of star crystals, and suddenly the space in front of him sparkled brightly. Jing Qingyi's expression changed instantly, her big, bright eyes flashing with stardust, as if she wanted to swallow all the star crystals in one gulp.
Seeing Jing Qingyi's greedy appearance, Zhao Zhuo couldn't help but pat his forehead, oh heavens, what a unique girl, he had seen people who were greedy for wealth before, but never one as unique as her.
Suddenly, Jing Qingyi let out a sharp cry: "Wow, I'm rich, I'm rich! So many star crystals!"
A burst of footsteps came, and the indestructible brothers rushed in first: "Big sister, what's wrong......ah......"
Zhao Duo only saw the five young men staring blankly at the hundreds of star crystals, their eyes shining brightly, and they didn't seem to be much worse than Jing Qingyi. It's really true that there are all kinds of big sisters and little brothers.
By the time Jing Qingyi reacted, Zhao Zhuo only saw Jing Qingyi's small white hand brush past, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of star crystals disappeared, that speed was truly incredibly fast, even Zhao Zhuo didn't see how Jing Qingyi did it.
"Haha, Zhao Shuo, you're really too kind. Don't worry, we'll take good care of you during your recovery."
Zhao Duo slowly shook his head and said, "Someone is trying to kill me, you are all just ordinary people, I don't want to implicate you, who knows when my enemy will arrive."
Jing Qingyi's face turned serious, "I know you're afraid of implicating us, but if I, Jing Qingyi, were a person who feared trouble, I wouldn't have brought you back. In your current state, if you leave like this, it's likely you won't make it far before something happens to you. It's better to stay here and recover!"
Zhao Hu looked at Jing Qingyi in surprise and said: "You really aren't afraid, maybe you'll end up losing your lives with me."
Unexpectedly, in Zhao Zhuo's eyes, this group of young people who were greedy for wealth and fame actually didn't fear the danger he brought to them.
Zhao Duo really didn't want to implicate Jing Qingyi and the others, struggling to get up, but unexpectedly Jing Qingyi suddenly burst out in anger, pinning Zhao Duo down on the bed: "What's wrong with you? We're not afraid of death, what are you afraid of?"
A pained cry escaped his lips, Zhao Zhuo smiled wryly, and could only follow Jing Qingyi's arrangement to stay behind and recover from his injuries.
It's unclear whether it was Zhao Zhuo's good fortune or the black-clad man being injured by Zhao Zhuo, but half a month had passed and although they lived in apprehension, there was no sign of the black-clad man coming to seek revenge.
The injuries on Zhao Zhuo's body, if it were an ordinary person, would take at least a few months to recover. But let's not forget that Zhao Zhuo has not only the Yin-Yang Wheel and the Great Millstone, but also his body is constantly tempered and nourished by the yuan force, as well as the mysterious North Ming Tian Di * cultivation.
So up to now, Zhao Zhuo's injuries have also recovered by about 70-80%. During his convalescence, apart from chatting and laughing with Jing Qingyi and others every day, he would enter a meditative state to comprehend the profound principles contained within the two great treasures, the Zhou Tian Ruyi Purple Light Tower and the Yin Yang Wheel Turning Great Millstone, and his strength was slowly increasing.
What truly made Zhao Zhuo's purpose was that in the lower abdomen, what was originally just a pool of spiritual power gathered together had now expanded several times over. Although it still had a long way to go before forming the yuan dan, at its current speed, it was already dozens of times faster than ordinary people. The rotation of yin and yang, the great wheel of fortune, had actually saved Zhao Zhuo the trouble of condensing his primordial energy into liquid, directly entering the stage of refining his body.
Slowly opening his eyes, Zhao Zhuang happened to see Jing Qingyi crouching in front of him, staring at him.
When Jing Qingyi saw Zhao Zhuo open his eyes, a faint blush flashed across her face. As if to cover up her own embarrassment, Jing Qingyi lightly coughed and said: "Zhao Zhuo, you're awake. Is your injury almost healed?"
Zhao Duo stood up, stretched his body, and suddenly made a crackling sound all over, chuckled and said: "Hmm, it's almost done, with another two or three days of work, I can recover, maybe even further"
Jing Qingyi's face was filled with envy as he said: "Congratulations to you indeed!"
Noticing the envy flashing in Jing Qingyi's eyes, Zhao Zhuang didn't say anything. How could he not know that Jing Qingyi and the others also wanted to obtain the Xingtu inheritance and open their spiritual apertures to enter the ranks of cultivators? And Zhao Zhuang wasn't incapable of doing so either. However, the Way cannot be lightly transmitted. If what is transmitted is not suitable for the person, it might bring disaster to one side. Therefore, even if Zhao Zhuang had intentions of teaching Jing Qingyi and the others how to cultivate, he still wanted to observe their character and moral integrity a bit more.
The night falls, another day quietly passes by. Sitting on the dilapidated steps, gazing up at the starry sky, the vast expanse of stars holds endless treasures and mysteries.
Sitting beside Zhao Zhuo, Jing Qingyi wore a cloak on her body, and her slender figure looked somewhat weak. She also gazed up at the starry sky with yearning in her eyes: "It's said that cultivators who reach the Dharmakaya stage can use the power of the Dharmakaya to break free from the constraints of the Benyuan Continent, freely roaming the starry sky and searching for all sorts of heavenly treasures and earthly riches in the boundless star universe."
Zhao Zhuo smiled lightly and said, "That's right. Once you reach the Dharmakaya stage, you'll have a long life. It takes hundreds of years to condense each Dharmakaya, so it would take thousands of years to be able to roam freely in the starry sky. Many strong practitioners are exploring the endless universe, and the mainland is actually more peaceful because many strong practitioners are missing."
"If there were no disputes and killings, how wonderful this world would be."
"This is impossible. As long as there are people, killing and strife will not disappear. This is probably the innate inferiority of human beings."
Jing Qingyi said: "Let's not talk about that anymore, tell me, why did the black-clothed man want to kill you? Did you have a deep-seated grudge with him, like killing his father and stealing his wife?"
He rolled his eyes and said, "Do I look like someone who can do something like that?"
Jing Qingyi looked at Zhao Shuo with a serious expression and said, "Hmm, this is hard to say."
Almost choked by Jing Qingyi's words, Zhao Zhuang was about to speak when a muffled hum came from the broken courtyard. His body shook violently, and before he could react to Jing Qingyi, he rushed towards the direction of the sound.
"Ah, they're dead! Ah Long and Ah Hu are dead... Who are you? Why did you kill us?"
Just as Zhao Zhuo burst into the room, a bloody aura rushed towards him. He saw two young men lying in a pool of blood - Jing Long and Jing Hu, who had been with Zhao Zhuo for over ten days. A black-clad man was slowly pulling out his long knife, which was covered in fresh blood, from Jing Bao's abdomen.
Jing Bao's eyes were filled with an unbelievable expression, his eyes unwillingly staring at the black-clothed man, as fresh blood flowed from his mouth: "Revenge, revenge!"
Watching the three people who lived with him like close brothers, Long Hu Bao, lose their lives in the blink of an eye, Jing Bu Si and Jing Bu Mie's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and they let out a loud cry as they prepared to pounce on the black-clad man.
