  Chapter 237 Large-scale ruins, Xu Bai broke through (8000)

  Time is like a track that keeps moving forward without any hindrance. Even if there are earth-shaking changes, it still cannot stop the passage of time.

   In the blink of an eye, nearly two months have passed.

  In the past two months, various bizarre events have occurred.

   Strange and frequent haunts in various places have brought great troubles to the people.

  Although Supervisor Tiansi changed their arrangement today and arrived in time, there will always be negligence.

   Fortunately, people's hearts will not be unstable, and they can barely control it.

   On the other hand, relics have occurred frequently in the Great Chu Kingdom, and the average frequency of occurrence is much higher than before.

  For the people in the industry, this is a good thing, but for the high-level, this kind of abnormal change is often unknown.

  Everywhere is changing, and so are barbarian fiefdoms.

   After a period of time, some important institutions that were lacking have finally been successfully made up, and today's barbarian fiefdoms can also basically operate.

   It is Chu Ling who is a little more relaxed. Now she has relieved a lot of burdens, and the complicated work is much less, allowing her to take a little rest.

  In the resplendent palace, Ye Zi was supporting Chu Ling to sit down.

  In two months, Chu Ling's belly had begun to take shape, and wearing loose clothes now did not have much impact on the people in the industry.

  Although the fetus in the womb is constantly absorbing her power, as the barbarian fiefdoms become more and more perfect, she is not far away from the extraordinary as an emperor, and she can balance the degree of this absorption.

   "Sister, I don't know how my husband is. I haven't seen him for two months." After Ye Zi helped Chu Ling sit down, he poured a glass of water for Chu Ling.

   Over the past two months, the two of them have been working almost non-stop to completely run the current barbarian fiefdom.

   During these two months, Xu Bai never showed his face, and stayed in the palace treasure house all the time. If everyone in the world knew that Prince Xu had not left the barbarian fiefdom, they might think that he was no longer here.

   "It's probably something important. As long as my husband doesn't call us, and if my husband doesn't come out, let's not bother him." Chu Ling rubbed her belly with a smile on her face.

  A pregnant woman's temper will become bad, but a pregnant woman will also exude a kind of maternal brilliance, and Chu Ling is like this today.

  The two of them haven't seen Xu Bai for more than two months. To be honest, they really wanted to meet, but everyone restrained themselves.

  They think that a sensible woman always knows when to leave a space for a man to be alone, especially when a man is doing business, it is a stupid behavior to disturb too much.

   "That's right." Ye Zi nodded slightly.

  Even if you want to see Xu Bai again, you shouldn't disturb him at this time.

  Ye Zi looked at Chu Ling's growing belly, and couldn't help but touch it with his hands.

  When the two women are together, they have a very good relationship in private, and they are very open when there are no outsiders.

   Chu Ling had long been familiar with this kind of action and did not stop it.

   Just then, there was a knock on the door.

   At the same time, a clear voice came.

   "Your Highness, Qingxue has something important to report."

   "Come in." Chu Ling hurriedly slapped Ye Zi's hand away, and returned to that graceful and luxurious look.

  Ye Zi stuck out her tongue and sat quietly by the side.

  The door was pushed open, and Qingxue, who was dressed in green, hurried in with a booklet in her hand.

   As the saying goes, one person attains the Tao, and the chicken and the dog ascend to heaven.

  Because of Xu Bai, Chu Ling sat on the throne of the barbarian fief and became the owner of the barbarian fief today.

   And because of Chu Ling, Qingxue is now a big celebrity in this barbarian fiefdom.

   Whenever there are internal affairs that need to be reported, Qingxue will hand them over.

   "Your Highness, two hundred miles to the north of the royal city, we found a sign that the ruins are about to be opened." Qingxue handed the folder in her hand to Chu Ling, and added another sentence at the end.

   "Large."

  All the relics can be seen in size from before they are opened. Qingxue’s expression is very dignified. It can be seen that the relics this time are very unusual.

  Chu Ling did not speak, stretched out her white jade hand, took the booklet in her hand, and after opening it, her slender eyebrows furrowed tightly.

  She read the notebook slowly with the same dignified expression.

  After she finished reading, she put away the notebook solemnly, as if she was thinking about something, and did not speak.

Beside   , Ye Zi casually took the booklet, and flipped through it as well.

   His eyes, which were already very big, stared even wider because of seeing the book.

   It is written in the brochure that the relic that appeared this time is an extremely large relic.

  This means that there will be no shortage of resources inside, but at the same time, there will be no shortage of hidden crises.

  The ruins are like this. It seems unreasonable, but in fact it is very fair and just, and there will be no tilt.

   If you want good things, excellent resources, and greater benefits, go to the ruins.

   But at the same time, they will also face endless dangers and unimaginable horrors.

  The ruins written above are very large, but this is not the main thing. The most important thing is that this is a barbarian fiefdom.

   Since taking over, the relic event happened for the second time.

   There is a long distance between the two, but it has already happened, which means that this is not an easy start.

  Sitting in their position, they are very aware of the major events happening now, especially the frequent occurrence of ruins.

   Does this mean that the current barbarian fief has already begun?

   After it comes to a head, there will be more and more ruins appearing at a faster and faster frequency?

  Ye Zi felt that his conjecture was very reasonable, and it was in line with the current general trend of the world.

   "Understood, Qingxue, go to the treasure house of the palace, find your husband, and show this notebook to your husband." Chu Ling handed the notebook back again.

  They didn't want to disturb Xu Bai, but her husband had told them about this matter a long time ago.

   If there is something related to abandonment, you must tell him as soon as possible, so Chu Ling asked Qingxue to go there.

   "Yes." Qingxue took the folder into her hand, bent slightly, and left without saying a word of nonsense.

   After Qingxue walked away with her legs, Chu Ling showed a trace of worry on her face.

   Now, she has completely run the barbarian fiefdom, so don't make any more fools.

   Now he just wants to take care of the daily affairs of the government, raise the baby with peace of mind, and give birth to Xu Bai's child, and doesn't want to do other things.

   "Sister, don't worry. Don't forget who your husband is. In this fief, with a husband in command, unless a few masters come over, they will be vulnerable." Ye Zi comforted softly

  Chu Ling nodded and agreed.

  Although he agreed, the anxiety between his brows still exists.

  …

  Qingxue took the notebook and walked in the spacious and clean palace.

  At this time, she clenched her hands tightly, not as relaxed and indifferent as she was before facing Chu Ling, she seemed very nervous.

  The folder was pinched in her hand, and it was a little crumpled.

   "Normal heart, normal heart." Qingxue took a few deep breaths, patted her huge chest with her hands, and only rushed towards the palace treasure house after her mood calmed down.

  …

   Palace treasure house.

At this time, in the majestic royal city, in the royal treasure house, Xu Bai was sitting on a chair, holding the experience of failing to become a saint, and staring at it intently. His eyes did not leave the book, but carefully stared at the book on it. progress bar.

  Nowadays, the progress bar is only a little short, and it is only a short step before it can be completely completed.

Next to   , only Liu Qingfeng was left to accompany her. As for the female temple master, she had already left the palace treasure house not long ago.

  In the quiet room, although Liu Qingfeng felt that he had no hope of competing for the qualification to become a saint, he was still staring intently at the book in his hand.

   No matter how slim the hope is, he has to try anyway. If he dares not even try, then there will be a big problem in his mood. With his current strength, he can't bear it.

Thinking of this, Liu Qingfeng even glanced at Xu Bai subconsciously, sighed slightly, and thought in his heart: "In such a short period of time, it is easy to reach the peak of the extraordinary, even in my era, I am afraid it is a The beloved darling of heaven and earth."

   Sometimes people are more angry than others. This sentence is not fake at all, but Liu Qingfeng has lived for such a long time. Although he is crazy most of the time, he does not feel jealous.

   At most, it is envy, which is a bit sour.

  Xu Bai felt Liu Qingfeng's envious gaze, and knew the reason for the gaze.

  But he couldn't distract himself now, and went to talk to Liu Liuqingfeng, because he was staring at the book with all his attention at the moment, the golden progress bar, at this moment, reached perfection.

  The light blue text was suspended in mid-air, and in a blink of an eye, it formed an order that Xu Bai could understand, and appeared in front of his eyes.

  【You observe the failure experience of entering the holy loss, comprehend the fusion × 1】

   Soon, the light blue text disappeared, but after disappearing, it didn't get into Xu Bai's mind, but turned into another line of information.

  【Matching fusionable options. 】

  【Match successful! 】

  【Fusion technique can forcibly classify and fuse irrelevant skills. 】

  【Converging...】

   After a while, the new text appeared again.

  【Fusion successful! 】

  With the disappearance of the fusion technique obtained this time, the light blue text finally turned into information and penetrated into Xu Bai's mind.

  Xu Bai closed his eyes, feeling carefully, and only opened his eyes after he had thoroughly grasped the information in his mind.

  In front of his eyes, the light blue text disappeared, replaced by brand new attributes.

  【Name: Xu Bai. 】

  【Realm: Transcendent Ninth Rank Sanren. 】

  【Wan Xiang Tian Yin Shan Hai Jue (Extraordinary Level 9.1): Full level. 】

  【Phantom Dafa (Extraordinary Level 9): Full level. 】

  【Thousands of Attacks (Level 1 Saint): Full level. 】

  【All kinds of defense (level 1 of becoming a saint): full level. 】

  [All kinds of miscellaneous arts (level 3): full level. 】

  【All kinds of support (Level 1): Full level. 】

  【Thaumaturgy (Extraordinary Level 9): Full level. 】

  【Comprehension: full level. 】

  …

   This time, he finished the two books of ecstasy experience, and these two books of ecstasy experience came from the hands of Miao Xiao.

All kinds of miscellaneous arts are formed through the fusion of the ten thousand poisons, the ingenious puppet's true solution, the water adaptation method, the feng shui arithmetic, the intangible formula of thousands of faces, the method of inviting gods from mountains and seas, and the method of controlling corpses. order.

   To be honest, it is indeed very strong, but this skill does not tend to be for combat, it is more like the feeling of mixing many things together.

  However, being able to reach this level is considered a pinnacle in various fields.

  The other one made Xu Bai slightly happy.

  Wanwan Assistance, which is a fusion of the two skills of strengthening the kidney and returning to the original, and the coexistence of yin and yang, has reached the level of the first level of sainthood.

  When the two are separated, they have different characteristics. First, the method of strengthening the kidney and returning to the original source is equivalent to storage.

  The coexistence of yin and yang can enhance one's combat power.

   Now, when the two are fused, they have reached the first level of sainthood. Not to mention the others, both of them have reached this level.

  First of all, this skill has the original storage function, but it can store the true energy of the first level of sainthood.

  Of course, this content is not just the content.

   "I feel that mobilizing the true energy in the body seems to be able to fight with the first-order saints."

  What is the description of the skill, it does what it does, it is so overbearing and unreasonable.

  Being able to store the true energy of the first level of sagehood means that although he has not reached the first level of sagehood, he already has the combat power of the first level of sagehood.

  The more Xu Bai thought about it, he couldn't help laughing.

   This is equivalent to getting a holy experience card, and it is a 24-hour holy experience card.

Comfortable!

   And more importantly, the role of all kinds of support is not only as simple as increasing the true energy, but also has a more important role, which is to enhance the combat power of the coexistence of yin and yang.

   "Excellent!" Xu Bai thought in his heart.

  The harvest this time is an extremely important harvest for him.

   But there is also something that makes him dissatisfied, that is, his strength is still the ninth rank of extraordinary.

  Heart method did not produce fusion at all, which also indirectly confirmed his previous conjecture.

  His own liver progress bar, if the liver heart method, the heart method will be automatically fused, so there is no place where he can perform the fusion technique.

   "So this thing really can't take a shortcut, it can only be crazy?" Xu Bai thought, and couldn't help feeling a little headache.

  Especially when he thought that only a dozen or so books of the ninth level of Transcendent could only improve the progress of that book by 0.1, he became more and more speechless.

  Except for the body method of Phantom Dafa, and the mental method that comes with it, the others have all become skills starting with "Wan Ba".

  Now there are two situations. The first one is that he has other skills. The skills he acquired will not be fused, but will be fused into the skills starting with "Wan Wan" by using the fusion technique.

  This is the best case, in this way, it will not slow down the progress.

  There is also a second situation, that is, after the liver and other skills are released in the future, they will be integrated immediately, but at the current speed, it is estimated that the integration of more than a dozen books will not increase much.

   "I hope it's the first case." Xu Bai thought to himself.

  If it's the second situation, he really doesn't know whether the fusion technique is a loss or a profit. As for what kind of situation it is, he can only try it out later.

  The other thing is, do you want to acquire more skills in the future, and then find the experience of failure in becoming a saint, so that you can integrate a few more books and the grade will be higher.

   Of course, this is all for the future, and there are more important things now.

  Xu Bai looked at the corner of the stairs, where a woman in Tsing Yi was walking slowly.

  Qingxue came in style, handed over the booklet in her hand, and said softly: "Your Highness gave it, it's about the ruins."

  Xu Bai received it in his hand without even looking at it.

  He already knew that because of Chu Ling's pregnancy, part of his soul focused on taking care of Chu Ling, so he already understood these things.

   "I see, I'll go in and have a look at the ruins this time." Xu Bai said.

  Qingxue was slightly surprised: "Aren't you in retreat?"

  In the past two months, no one has seen Xu Bai, so Qingxue was very surprised when he suddenly heard Xu Bai say that he was leaving the customs today.

   "It's been more than two months, it's been a long time, it's time to go out and do some activities." Xu Bai smiled.

  He has not forgotten about the ruins, and the things in the ruins are very important.

  Actually, he can continue to work on it now, because there are quite a lot of exercises on the barbarian side, but he doesn't want to continue now.

  The reason is also very simple. If it is a small relic, it may not arouse his interest, but this time the relic is very large, maybe he can find some clues.

   What's more, the progress bar can also be found in the ruins. Of course, he will not let go of this thing that kills two birds with one stone.

  Qingxue bit her rosy lower lip: "Then I'll talk to His Highness now."

   "Let's go together." Xu Bai stood up.

   Qingxue nodded and stopped talking.

  The two left the palace treasure house together.

   This place became much quieter in an instant, only Liu Qingfeng was left alone.

  Liu Qingfeng looked left and right, then lowered his head, looking at the book in his hand, always feeling that he is now inexplicably lonely.

  …

   From the palace treasure house to the bedroom, the location is not far away, and if you don’t walk slowly, you will arrive soon.

  But Xu Bai and Qingxue slowed down, neither of them spoke, falling into a strange silence.

   When walking nearly half of the distance, Qingxue finally couldn't bear it anymore, stepped up and walked in front of Xu Bai, and stopped.

  Xu Bai also stopped, and looked at Qingxue suspiciously.

  Qingxue gritted her teeth, summoned up her courage, and said, "Your Highness told you before that I am a dowry maid, you..."

  The rest of the words have not been said yet, and he seems a little hesitant, looking like he wants to say but is hard to say.

  Even if Xu Bai is a fool, he can still hear the content. He smiled and shook his head: "I can't give you the answer right now. After everything settles down, I will give you the answer you should have."

  Qingxue, we all raised our heads, our eyes were slightly bright: "It's good, it's still bad."

   "Probably good." Xu Bai pondered: "Are you sure you want to do this?"

   "Sure." Qingxue nodded vigorously, expressing that she was very sure.

  Xu Fan looked up and down the woman in Tsing Yi, and finally sighed.

   "Come on, you'll have the answers you want, but you need everything to settle down."

  Qingxue looked directly at Xu Bai, but still didn't move half a step: "Just like the answer you gave Liu Xu?"

   "How do you know..." Xu Bai said a few words before closing his mouth.

   The corners of Qingxue's mouth slightly raised: "I know a lot, well, let's not mention this matter, let's go, I guess His Highness is in a hurry."

  At this time, Qingxue didn't stay any longer, and walked in front of Xu Bai, leading the way, her steps becoming more brisk.

  Xu Bai shook his head with a wry smile, and followed behind.

   Not long after, the two arrived at the bedroom. Qingxue didn't go in, but just opened the door and let Xu Bai in.

   After Xu Bai went in, Qingxue left.

   Walking into the room, Xu Bai looked at Chu Ling whose belly was slightly swollen, and rubbed his hands involuntarily.

   "Come, let my husband listen."

   While speaking, Xu Bai walked directly to Chu Ling's side and put his ear on Chu Ling's abdomen.

  Feeling the signs of life inside, Xu Bai showed a happy smile on his face.

  Chu Ling gently stroked Xu Bai's head, enjoying it.

   "Husband, do you only care about my sister when my sister is pregnant?" Ye Zi was next to him, pretending to be savoring.

  Xu Bai stood up with a smile on his face: "Didn't the night before be covered with rain and dew, how could one favor one over another?"

  Ye Zi heard Xu Bai's teasing, his face turned slightly red, and turned away.

  Xu Bai didn't continue to tease, and said seriously: "I want to go in and have a look at the ruins this time. If there is any problem when I am not here, you can't solve it, you can tell Liu Qingfeng and let him handle it."

   It takes time to enter the ruins, and a large ruins takes a lot of time.

   Only after the time of the ruins disappears will they come out, otherwise they will stay inside forever.

So Xu Bai also arranged the outside affairs. Currently, Liu Qingfeng is the top-notch super expert who can be mobilized. Other forces can also be mobilized, but not as directly as Liu Qingfeng. After all, Liu Qingfeng has already been sold to Xu Bai. .

  Chu Ling heard the words, and said with a little worry: "Husband, the ruins are very dangerous, you must be careful."

  She didn't stop her, let alone say anything she couldn't say.

  Because everyone has been together for so long, they are also familiar with Xu Bai's character. If Xu Bai makes a decision on one matter, it will be impossible for nine cows to pull it back.

  Xu Bai patted Chu Ling's head: "Don't worry, I am now a master of the ninth rank of extraordinary, and now there are very few who can be my opponents."

   These words will sound a bit pretentious, but they are pretending to be very practical.

   No one can refute it, because now, except for the holy masters, there is really no one who can beat Xu Bai.

  Next, Xu Bai discussed with Chu Ling and others about the follow-up matters. After knowing that the ruins would be opened tomorrow, he decided to go tomorrow.

  But tonight, he will not return to the palace treasury.

  It's boring there, where is the fun here?

  The quality of the bed in the bedroom is very good, and there is no sound even when shaken.

   One shake, one night.

  …

  The next day.

  Xu Bai got up early, dressed and washed under the service of the two women, and went directly to the huge ruins.

  The two women did not follow. They still have to deal with the affairs of the court, but it does not mean that they are relaxed about the ruins.

  There have long been people from the Tiansi Supervisor and those in the army who have been guarding it.

  The ruins are open to the outside, but the order must be maintained, so no one can be there.

  The location of the ruins is located in the middle of the Great Chu Kingdom and the barbarian fiefdoms. It is a wilderness. When Xu Bai arrived, seeing the crowds of people, he felt bad.

  Although I knew that a large relic was very attractive, I didn’t expect that there would be so many people, surrounded by the inner three floors and the outer three floors. If it weren’t for the people in the army guarding the edge, there might be some troubles.

   "Meet Lord Xu!" In the dark, a man dressed in ordinary clothes came over and saluted.

  Although he was dressed in ordinary clothes, he was wearing a badge on his waist. Xu Bai could tell at a glance that this was a member of Tiansi Supervisor.

   "Where is Shadow Moon?" Xu Bai frowned.

   "Master Mu has already dispatched people, but she is still investigating weird things, so she has no resources at her disposal. However, there are many people transferred here, so nothing will go wrong." The person explained.

  Master Mu refers to Mu Yingyue.

  Xu Bai nodded, expressing his understanding.

   Today's Xu Bai has long been known by everyone. Unless he changes his body shape, as long as he comes, he will be discovered by others?

  So at this moment, many people have discovered Xu Bai, and they all cast their gazes over. Xu Bai's hearing is very good, and he can hear the conversations of these people.

   "It's Lord Xu. I didn't expect this ruin to alarm Lord Xu. We actually saw Lord Xu!"

   This is the sound of excitement, Xu Bai guesses, it is similar to that kind of fanaticism.

   "It's gone, it's gone... The blood butcher swordsmen have come here in person, and it is estimated that there will be a lot of search inside, it's gone!"

   This is a voice that thinks it's unlucky, and it seems that everything inside is Xu Bai's.

   "Hehe, I am also extraordinary. Although I am only a third-rank, I have long wanted to meet Xu Wangye. This time, just see what I searched. Is there more Xu Wangye?"

   Extraordinary?

  The road is narrow, little brother.

  Xu Bai screened out some information and tried to spread his soul. Soon, he felt a few different people, and these people were all in an extraordinary realm.

   "Unexpectedly, it really attracted a lot of people, even Chaofan. It seems that everyone wants to compete for the resources inside."

  Unfortunately, I didn’t see the people from the academy and Buddhism, let alone catkins and flowers.

  In fact, if you think about it carefully, they are right not to come.

  The huge influence of the academy is not bad for these resources, not to mention, those scholars are more interested in studying as an official.

  As for the Buddhist sects, they are all learning the new Buddhist teachings spread by Wuhua, so how can they bother to care about them?

  So Xu Bai was not surprised that these two forces did not come.

   The noisy voices became louder and louder, and the noises were all caused by Xu Bai's arrival, Xu Bai's brows frowned even tighter.

  He knew that if he didn't speak at this time, the situation might get out of control.

  Thinking of this, Xu Bai could only speak slowly.

   "Everyone."

  Just after saying two words, all the people present stopped, and the scene fell into an eerie silence.

  Xu Bai felt the attention of all the people present, and said with a smile: "Don't get confused just because of the king's arrival. After entering, look for your own opportunities, and don't cause trouble for the king."

  The meaning of this sentence is to let them take a peace of mind pill, not to be too surprised, and also give a warning.

  If it were an unknown person, giving a warning here would probably arouse public outrage, but who said it was Xu Bai?

  This year, most of the time.

   To make a very simple analogy, among ordinary people, if a person who is too ordinary speaks, not many people will pay attention to it, but if a powerful person speaks, he will be sought after by everyone.

  Now, Xu Bai is like this.

  No one dared to object, and Xu Bai didn't care about them. He looked over the crowd and saw the mid-air ahead.

   There's a huge area there that's constantly distorting.

   This scene is very similar to the first time I entered the ruins.

  Xu Bai rubbed his chin, and asked the member of Tianjiansi next to him: "How long is it?"

  The member shook his head: "I can only give a general idea, anyway, I should be able to enter today, and the prince may have to wait a little longer."

  Xu Bai hummed and stopped talking.

  As a member today, I also know that if Xu Bai doesn't want to talk, he will only annoy others if he stays here, so he said goodbye and left.

  Xu Bai raised his feet and walked forward. Wherever he walked, those Jiang Hu people all gave way.

  He came to the front without hindrance.

  With so many people staring at him, he felt particularly relaxed. He found a random position and waited patiently.

   But these Jianghu people feel like they are on their backs, which is not natural.

   In such a very weird atmosphere, time continued to pass, and in a blink of an eye, night came.

  The distorted space in mid-air suddenly became more distorted, as if a snake was constantly crawling and flicking its tail.

"coming soon!"

   There was a quack who couldn't help shouting.

  Of course Xu Bai was also attracted by this scene. He looked up at the sky and narrowed his eyes slightly.

  The distorted space continued to spread, and soon, a huge black hole appeared, which was the entrance to the ruins.

   Logically speaking, after it appeared, the people present would definitely rush in, but now no one dared to advance, and all looked at Xu Bai.

  Everyone is very clear that Xu Bai is definitely going to go in. No matter how big the ruins are, there is a limit on the number of people. If they really rush in and Xu Bai doesn't go in in the end, then they won't be able to mess around.

   After all, there are rumors in the world that the blood butcher swordsman is very vengeful.

  Xu Bai also knew what these people were thinking. Without hesitation, he flew up and fell into the **** hole.

  Since everything has been decided, he didn't hesitate.

   Soon, his figure disappeared.

  The Jianghu people were all relieved when they saw this scene, and then they entered in an orderly manner, taking turns until the upper limit was reached and the big hole in the ruins disappeared.

  …

  Xu Bai only felt a blur in front of his eyes, and soon, he found himself in a strange place.

  Now, he is standing on a vast grassland, the grass on the ground is withered and yellow, looking lifeless.

  Because of the vastness of the grassland, from his perspective, the sky looks even more vast.

   Most importantly, there is no one here!

   It stands to reason that if everyone enters together, there is a high probability that they will appear in one place.

   But Xu Bai waited for so long, but there was no one.

   Four times, there is an empty space.

   Except for… dead bodies.
