I Just Won’t Play by the Book

Chapter 697 Running Free

[The optional task has been completed, reward: Art Armor +1]

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

Now he has collected all six Emperor Gu, but there is no strange phenomenon when they are put together, it is 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, and even if they are one-on-one, they may not be the opponent of Old Wang.

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

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

The six Emperor Gu have different images, so Jiang Bei can't help but wonder if their abilities are also different.

And to prove this, experiments must be necessary.

‘Yang Ze’s words…should be fine. '

For Gu, the human body is a power amplifier, how powerful it is, you can tell once you put it in the human body.

It's just that the power of the Emperor Gu is too great for ordinary people to bear, so Qu Yangze's body must be the best "test container".

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

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

Putting the six Gu cultivators into their respective containers, Jiang Beiran took out an arm full of runes from the Qiankun Ring.

This is the talisman used as the eyes of Qi Guo's super large formation.

It just formed one body with the other arm, legs, heart and head of the previous Five Kingdoms.

Although these stumps are no longer useful, Jiang Beiran felt that since they would be used as array eyes, they must have something special, so he collected them and brought them with him, and planned to take them back together to study and see if they were used as eyes. What is so special about the body that was cut to serve as the eyes of the formation?

"Master Jiang is here."

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

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

"Compared to Master Jiang, our hard work is nothing." Ling Zhen waved his hand, then looked in the direction of the formation and said, "I don't know if it's my illusion. It's heavier than the previous few times, is it okay?"

"Well, it is indeed more troublesome to solve, but fortunately, I have already dealt with it, please rest assured."

"Master Jiang is still very powerful. If there is no you, this formation will be broken. I am afraid that the harm will be greater than not breaking it."

Weng Xinzhi on the side nodded after listening and said: "That's true, the evil spirit in this formation is too heavy, and I don't know what kind of crazy person thinks it."

Listening to the words of several ninth-rank formation masters, Jiang Beiran couldn't help showing a contemplative look.

After guessing that the Gu clan might have tenth-rank Gu masters, Jiang Beiran had to think about whether they might have all kinds of profound arts that were more powerful than the Xuanlong Continent.

Formation is naturally one of them.

Because judging from all the current information, the Gu clan 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.

Perhaps the Gu clan has inherited many skills that have been lost in the Xuanlong Continent.

"Master Jiang, how is the preparation of the Xuanxing Building that you mentioned, I can't wait." After relaxing, Yin Xing looked at Jiang Beiran and asked.

"It's coming soon, please wait a little longer."

"Okay, we'll wait as long as we want." Several ninth-rank formation masters laughed at the same time.

Recently, after they returned to their respective territories, it can be said that they were all in a bad mood. The self who was only dedicated to formation has disappeared. When they are free for a while, they always think about tinkering with other profound arts. This has never happened before. .

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

"Then please wait for the good news." Jiang Beiran smiled and cupped his hands.

After sending off the four ninth-rank formation masters, Jiang Beiran took Feifu to the ancient ruins, which was the place he chose to build the Xuanxing Tower.

Since the last time when the earth-level panacea was refined with the help of the holy light, Jiang Beiran has determined that this holy market must be the best place for the development of a mysterious artist.

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

After all, strange beasts absolutely do not welcome cultivators to enter the ancient ruins. Jiangbei is an accident, but if there are too many such accidents, those strange beasts will probably not agree.

First came to the tribe of Wuwu, and Jiang Beiran found it in the lair.

"Holy envoy!? You've come, last time you left too hastily, we didn't have time to thank you."

As soon as he saw Jiang Beiran approaching, Zhu Wu got up and said, his tone full of sincerity.

"Busy to deal with various things, you should know that you are not the only ones who have been attacked by those gu cultivators."

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

"It's a serious loss." After speaking, Jiang Beiran looked up at Wuwu and smiled, "How about it? If you want to counterattack humans, now is the best opportunity. Do you want to try?"

After hearing this, Wuwu was taken aback. Although he had always firmly believed that Jiang Beiran was the holy envoy who came to help them, he was also in the form of a human being, so Wuwu always treated him as a cultivator.

Now hearing that he actually encouraged himself to counterattack humans, it feels really... a little strange.

"You really think so?"

"Of course it is true. We are friends. How could I lie to you?"

After hearing it, Wu Wu was obviously still a little unbelievable, and his big head was full of doubts.

"It seems that you still don't understand the situation outside." Jiang Beiran spread out the map of Xuanlong Continent on the ground after finishing speaking.

"Nowadays, the human kingdom is in a state of disintegration. It is as strong as Wei, Tan, and Tong retain a lot of strength, and weak as Zeng. Its high-end combat power has suffered a great loss..."

As for Zhuwu, Jiang Beiran's tirade was completely in his ears: "Bala bla bla blah, this one is strong, blah blah blah, this is weak, blah blah blah..."

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

Zhu Wu first acted in a contemplative state, and then replied: "So we should kill the weak ones first, right?"

"No." Jiang Beiran shook his head knowing that Wuwu couldn't understand, "No, even if those weak ones are killed, then several other powerful countries will join forces to attack you, and you still can't stop it."

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

"What do you mean by the envoy?"

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

"Who is the timing?"

"..."

"I'll let you know when it comes."

After hearing this, Zhu Wu pondered for a while, and finally raised his head and looked at Jiang Beiran seriously and said, "But I can't decide on these, or you should go to Jiu Wu, he can make up his mind better."

"Also."

Jiang Beiran nodded briskly. After all, he never expected to have any results from talking with Wuwu from the beginning. The reason why he didn't go directly to Wuwu was because he felt that his relationship with it was not good enough to talk about this kind of relationship. As for the fate of the alien beast race, that's why he used 梼杌 as a springboard.

Now that "Springboard" has understood its meaning, Jiang Beiran naturally doesn't need to continue talking to it.

Shaking his fur vigorously, Zhu Wu yawned and said, "It's been a long time since I saw that big eye, this time I'll go with you."

"That would be all the better."

Nodding his head, Jiang Beiran and Zhuwu left its tribe together.

While walking on the road, Zhu Wu suddenly asked Jiang Beiran, "You just said that those things that can't be killed are called Gu Xiu?"

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

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

"I don't know where the chief heard about it?"

"I forgot too."

"..."

Fortunately, as the saying goes, if there is no expectation, there will be no disappointment. Jiang Beiran has never thought about getting any valuable information from Wuwu, so naturally he will not feel disappointed.

"Oh! I remembered!" As he was walking, Zhu Wu suddenly raised his neck and shouted, "My grandfather told me that."

"What does the old beastman say?"

"It said that if you see these bugs, you'd better not provoke them. They could easily cause disasters. I used to think that there was nothing to be afraid of some small bugs. I just trampled them to death. Now it seems that what my grandpa is talking about is these troublesome Gu cultivators. .”

"Did your grandfather say anything else?"

"Others..." Zhu Wu pondered for a moment, "It seems to be there, but I forgot."

"..."

After silently saying "no expectation, no disappointment", Jiang Beiran continued to walk forward.

When they came to the forest where the scorpion was, before the scorpion opened its mouth, a vine broke through the ground and quickly grew to the same height as a human.

"You are welcome, Holy Messenger."

Said after a big eye grew on the vine.

"Hey, big eyes, don't you welcome me?" Wu Wu said with some dissatisfaction.

"If it wasn't for you, I would have directly welcomed the envoy in."

After hearing this, Zhu Wu was about to get angry, but his expression was filled with guilt.

"You really hold grudges. I didn't apologize to you about the flower garden. Why are you still talking about it?"

Without continuing to pay attention to Wuwu, the big eyeball on the vine looked at Jiang Beiran again and asked, "Why is the holy envoy here?"

"It's like this. I want to help the beasts counterattack the human kingdom. After hearing my plan, Chief Zhuwu suggested that I come to you."

Hearing the words counterattack the human kingdom, the big eyes on the vines shrank suddenly, and in the next second, more vines grew around Jiang Beiran, and quickly combined into a huge tent.

"Holy envoy, if this is a joke, it's not funny at all."

After the vine tent was formed, the main body of Fengxi slowly rose from the ground.

"Of course this is not a joke, please listen to me." After Jiang Beiran finished speaking, he opened the map of Xuanlong Continent again, and said to Qiwu again what he had just said to Qiwu.

During the conversation, Jiu Xi's four ears would vibrate from time to time, as if to express her astonishment.

"You want us to join hands with cultivators?" Jiu Xi asked after listening.

This made Wuwu, who had a somewhat expectant expression on the side, suddenly disappointed. It originally planned to laugh at Wuxi for not being able to understand the meaning of the envoy's words just like himself, but he seemed to understand it right away.

"That's right, it's more accurate to say that it's an alliance, because this matter can't be done in a short while, and it may not be enough to join forces just once."

"Hee hee hee hee..."

After listening to Jiang Beiran's answer, Jiuxi suddenly let out a very weird laugh, and his eyes behind him were completely narrowed.

"Holy envoy, if it was Wuwu who gave you the illusion that strange beasts are stupid, then I can tell you now that it does not represent all strange beasts."

"Big eyes! I think you're looking for a fight!" After finishing speaking, Zhu Wu raised his paw to slap towards Jiu Wu, but was entangled by dozens of vines.

Just when Wuwu struggled to break free, the eyes behind Jiuwu looked at it and said: "You should be able to hear that we are talking about important things. When the chat is over, I will beat you however you want."

Hearing Yan Xi's serious tone, Wu Wu had no choice but to spit resentfully, and put down his paw.

After the two beasts had finished arguing, Jiang Beiran smiled and said, "Does Chief Yuxi not believe my proposal?"

"Yes." Yunxi replied very directly, "Actually, we all owe you a favor. If the envoy really needs our help, you can tell it directly, and you don't have to waste so much time."

Although I felt it the last time I met him, but chatting with this 茼訑 again, Jiang Beiran felt more and more that not all strange beasts are so easy to fool, there are smart ones among them, and some stupid ones, but there are more stupid ones. .

With some emotion in his heart, Jiang Beiran continued: "Chief Fengxu has misunderstood, and my suggestion is sincere. The current structure of Xuanlong Continent is as chaotic as I said, which is very suitable for you to take advantage of the situation. If you don’t believe me, I can tell you a few benefits.”

"The situation of most of the alien beasts in the human kingdom is very difficult now~www.readwn.com~ but it is impossible to bring them all to the Four Sacred Lands. Now, as long as we cooperate with a few weak countries, we can expand Your territory, I can guarantee that practitioners on these territories will absolutely not invade each other."

After hearing this, Yuxi fell into silence, as if thinking about something.

Seeing this, Jiang Beiran continued: "With more territory, you can breed better and reverse the situation where the number of exotic animals is decreasing."

"What the envoy said... is indeed very tempting, but... what is the price?"

"Hahaha, Chief Jiuxi's words are really straightforward, but it is not so much a price as a condition."

"It's all right, anyway, the meaning is similar, please tell me."

"Okay, then I'll just say it straight, I need to use your power to balance human power."

"What's in it for us?"

"I can let you and the cultivators coexist peacefully and run freely on the Xuanlong Continent."
