NOVEL NEXT Chapter 55 The Scorpion King Unlocked
The red lava channel behind the gray-robed old man penetrated the thick wall of the stone chamber and extended diagonally into the depths of the cave wall.
At a glance, the lava channel is bottomless, and only high-temperature liquid emitting billowing heat waves can be seen slowly flowing. The interior is red, as if it reaches the underground magma layer.
The power of that inconspicuous black pistol was truly astonishing, and the damage caused by this shot was terrifying.
Seeing this horrifying scene, the young man gently rubbed the black pistol in his hand. He couldn't put it down, and his expression became more and more satisfied.
"Master, he seems to be dying..."
Elder Han, who had regained some strength, quickly stepped forward to carefully examine the physical condition of the gray-robed old man and came to this conclusion.
The expression on the young man's face froze. He walked closer and found that the old man in gray robe was indeed on his deathbed. The fire of life was like wax remaining in the wind and might be completely extinguished at any time.
"Can it be rescued?"
He turned his attention to Elder Han who was busy around the gray-robed old man.
"There is little hope, and I feel ashamed. I can only try my best."
"If more than a dozen rare elixirs are used to supplement the treatment, there may be a glimmer of hope, otherwise..."
After about a cup of tea, Elder Han wiped away the small beads of sweat on his forehead and said this to the young man with some embarrassment.
"Forget it, let's give him a happy life so that he doesn't suffer."
The price of more than ten rare elixirs was too high, not to mention whether it was affordable or not. For the sake of the gray-robed old man, the young man also felt that it was not worth it, so he had no choice but to give up.
After a while, Elder Han finished handling the affairs behind his old friend.
The old man in gray robe did not carry many items with him. Only the bronze mirror magic weapon and the elixir in the jade box were considered precious, and they were pocketed by the young man.
After doing all this, Elder Han and the young man left the cave. The two of them drove the divine rainbow into the sky, streaked across the sky in an instant, and submerged into the Qingming.
After half a day, the two of them came to a valley under a rainbow light in a mountain range.
This is a place where the gray-robed old man is entrenched. There are some Taoist prohibitions engraved around the valley, but no one is in charge at this time. They are soon broken open by two people, and they find a cave hidden in the valley. The items were looted.
"Seize the time to heal your injuries and return to full condition as soon as possible. Soon, there will be something you need to do, and your help is indispensable..."
The young man brought the items that caught his eye, and the light disappeared in a flash, leaving only the lingering sound.
"Yes!"
After hearing this, Elder Han, who sent the other party away respectfully, looked enthusiastic. He stepped forward and picked up a diamond-like crystal on the ground, and put it into his arms as a precious treasure.
……
The sun is setting in the west, and the twilight is getting darker.
The afterglow of the setting sun casts a layer of golden color on the bamboo forest and thatched hut in front of the low mountain. The breeze blew through the bamboo forest. The sunset was gentle and the wind was intoxicating.
In the hut, an inconspicuous small bronze mirror flashed with light, and the young man revealed his figure, put down his belongings, and then turned into a cloud and disappeared.
"After all, he is a monk in the realm of Shenqiao, but he is so shabby..."
Zhang Jingming, who was sitting cross-legged on the futon, opened his eyes, looked at the bronze mirrors, jade boxes and other items stacked in front of him, and whispered to himself with some disgust.
A piece of divine pattern brilliance rushed out from the sea of suffering under his navel, and all the items were involved in it and slowly refined. The whole body was once again filled with rays of light and misty colored mist, and he once again entered into deep cultivation.
The days returned to calm, time passed slowly, and seven days passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period of time, Zhang Jingming has been immersed in practice, turning his ears to nothing outside the window, and practicing hard. The same is true for his two clones.
He had greeted Ye Fan and Pang Bo in advance, and since he had carved a pattern in the hut, no one came to disturb him.
On this day, two bolts of lightning suddenly flashed across the quiet hut, piercing the darkness.
Inside the small thatched hut, three identical teenagers were sitting cross-legged on a futon. Two of the teenagers turned into a cloud and disappeared. The boy in the middle had eyes shining brightly, as if he contained a lot of energy. Sun, moon and stars.
At this time, Zhang Jingming opened his eyes wide and looked around curiously, like a newborn baby, seemingly observing the world for the first time.
His eyebrows beat slightly, his spiritual sense seemed to have improved a lot, his five senses became extremely sharp, and the world in front of him suddenly became clear.
From Zhang Jingming's perspective, the world seemed to have unveiled an invisible veil, revealing its true appearance in front of him for the first time. Wherever he looked, many details that he had never noticed were revealed.
He stood up, walked out of the hut, and looked far into the distance. His field of vision suddenly became extremely wide. Even the scenery of the distant mountain peaks became very clear and he could see it all.
Zhang Jingming experienced this change in himself in detail. At this moment, he felt that everything in the world, every plant and tree, seemed to come alive all of a sudden.
"Is this the transformation of spiritual consciousness?"
He focused his attention on the space between his eyebrows, and could vaguely sense a whirlpool there, filled with wisps of pure and turbid air, very hazy, like chaos.

At this moment, words composed of mysterious information appeared in his consciousness, which caught Zhang Jingming's attention.
As his thoughts moved, these words all turned into dots of starlight, and then turned into embodied books.
The book opened automatically, and a woman wearing a black breastplate and skirt, and a black scorpion-shaped helmet came into view.
[Scorpion King, one-time summoning card, lasts for ten minutes after use]
ten minutes……
That should be enough to get a few things done.
As Zhang Jingming's thoughts turned, the book of manifestation turned directly to the last page.
On this page, there is a short sword drawn, which looks very ordinary and has nothing outstanding about it.
However, Zhang Jingming would not think that this short sword was really ordinary.
[The Imperial Instrument "Haunted by Evil Ghosts", the current unlocking progress is 0.1%]
The "Evil Haunted" Teigu is known as one of the "Forty-eight Unreplicable Weapons" and is an armor-type Teigu.
It is forged using the ancient dangerous species Thailand (Thailand) as its raw material, plus rare metals such as Orihagun and a large number of lost secret techniques.
The short sword in front of you is just in its normal form. After exhaling, it can release the armor form. The strong armor will automatically fly up and completely wrap the user in it. It has the ability to be hidden for a short time and becomes transparent, and is equipped with the attached weapon "Red-backed Shrike" ".
Moreover, the monster Thailand made into this imperial weapon has not died, so it can continue to evolve as the user's strength increases, and has very strong adaptability and upper limit.
However, although it can not only improve the ability after wearing it, but also has the function of invisibility, coupled with the ability to evolve independently, the combat power can be said to be very powerful.
But it also has a shortcoming, that is, it places a huge burden on users, which is far beyond what ordinary people can bear.
Of course, for Zhang Jingming who has embarked on the path of spiritual practice, this so-called burden is naturally not a problem.
