the road to becoming a god

Section 34

Of course, only Iron-blooded City can do this kind of thing. Because the situation here is relatively special, especially in the once-year beast tide, a single decent or magic road can't resist the endless, seemingly endless beast tide impact at all. Only by jointlying the outside world can we gain space for survival. This is the consensus reached between the Iron Family and the Demons, and it is also an agreement that is unsigned but always valid. As long as the beast tide still occurs, the Iron-blooded City will always be a city of freedom and a city of equality.

When Qiu Jiu landed on a street in the Iron-blooded City, he did not attract anyone's attention. This is originally a city of freedom. If it hadn't been for such a special period as the beast tide, it would be free to come and go. Qiu Jiu saw that many practitioners on the roadside were setting up stalls selling things they didn't need or marking things that needed to be exchanged, so he approached a stall and asked, "Friend, where can I buy ice boxes for sale or exchange?"

The owner of the booth was a Tianjianmen in his early 30s. Seeing Qiu Jiu's polite question, he immediately got up and replied, "Brother, do you want to go deep into the wilderness to pick exotic fruits?"

Qiu Jiu nodded. The function of the ice box was to preserve those perishable fairy fruit species, so it is not surprising that this Tianjianmen can ask this question. The man continued: "Just this morning, the city lord's mansion issued a collection order. Due to the excessive collection in the past two years, the city master's mansion has designated some cherished exotic fruits that cannot be collected in the near future. If this brother wants to buy an ice box, he should first go to the bulletin board outside the gate of the city master's mansion to see if the fruits you want to collect are within the forbidden range.

"So that's it. Thank you for reminding me in advance. Excuse me, goodbye." Qiu Jiu smiled and saluted, asked the way to the city master's mansion, and turned around and flew there.

A few minutes later, Qiu Jiu saw the magnificent architectural community of the city master's mansion, and many practitioners had gathered in the square in front of the city's main mansion. From time to time, he could hear someone reading the list of fruits on the forbidden pick-off order, and some people who were about to mine this thing couldn't help shaking their heads and sighing, just saying to themselves. I have bad luck. Seeing the sea of people in front of him, Qiu Jiu didn't like to squeeze in. He looked at a demon monk beside him and asked politely, "Brother, I don't know if Wuyouguo is on the ban order?"

"Worry-free fruit? What is that? I haven't heard them read it yet. Please wait and see with me. I heard that more than 2,000 different fruits can't be mined this time, so I read three-fifths of them. The demon answered all his questions. Qiu Jiu said "thank you" and stood quietly, listening to the people in front of him slowly reading the forbidden order one after another.

It was hard to hear the previous people read the complete ban order. Qiu Jiu asked three practitioners who arrived earlier than him, and finally made sure that Wuyouguo was not included in the ban order, so he had to buy a ice box at ease. At this time, the crowd suddenly rose up for a while. However, the red gate of the city owner's mansion, which is 15 meters high and about 10 meters wide, slowly opened, and two rows of boys and girls came out of it, pressing men and women to the left and right, and 15 people stood on each side.

Then, two men and a woman came out of the door. Both men were over 30 years old, and their cultivation was unpredictable. At least Qiu Jiu could not see it. The woman is young, only about twelve or thirty years old, with a pink face and a big red cheongsam, which is indescribably cute. Some sensful people talked softly, "Isn't this Miss Tiejiajiu? Why did you come out to publish the recruitment today?

"Excuse me, brother, what is recruitment? This Miss Tiejiajiu is again..."

Looking at Qiu Jiu's confused face, the speaker knew that he was a new arrival in the Iron-blooded City and explained, "Recruitment is some difficult tasks issued by the city master's government, either collecting strange fruits, hunting foreign beasts, or completing the wild topographic map... Anyway, there are many types, depending on which one is good at. Moreover, these tasks are not limited to the number of people and cultivation, as long as they can complete the task. At that time, the city lord's government will give you the rewards agreed upon when publishing the recruitment. As for Miss Tiejiajiu, that is the pearl in the palm of the iron city owner, who has been cultivating in the house. It seems that there will be a trial task this time.

"Looking at your appearance, you must ask again what the trial task is. Haha, it doesn't matter. People who come to Iron Blood City for the first time have a lot of problems. You will know after living for a long time. The trial task is to accompany the disciples of the Tie family to go deep into the wilderness and help her condense Yuanying.

Condensing baby?! Qiu Jiu asked in consterrent, "Isn't this Miss Jiu less than 13 years old? Can you condense the baby so early?!"

The man laughed and said, "Little brother, Miss Jiu is 16 years old. Two months ago, the city owner just came to celebrate with a banquet. Moreover, the condensing Yuanying is not so simple. The trial task is to see if Miss Jiu has the ability to condense Yuanying. The real condensing baby still has to wait until she returns to the city master's mansion before starting to prepare. I remember that Miss Eight Ningying took eight years last time. I don't know how many years it will take for Miss Jiu.

While explaining, the man did not forget to listen to the recruitment information released by the city lord's mansion.

Qiu Jiu is also concerned that the Tie family is one of the seven major families, with a strong background, which is indeed unmatched by ordinary families. The reward of this recruitment information can be said to be very rich. But when Qiu Jiu looked at the expressions of the people around him, he seemed to be used to it for a long time and could not see any surprise. From this point of view, it should be regarded as such a rich reward for every recruitment.

But the old saying is also good. If you take more, you have to do more. After listening to a few recruitments, many people turned around and left, thinking that they had heard the information they needed. Qiu Jiu saw that these people who left should be in the peace period. Then, more and more people left, and their cultivation became deeper and deeper. After listening to more than 20 recruitments, among the people who left, there were actually masters in response to the robbery period.

"Oh, the little brother's cultivation is so deep that he is not moved by the previous information." The kind-hearted person who explained for Qiu Jiu couldn't help admiring Qiu Jiu's calm face. Qiu Jiu smiled and asked softly, "Can't the eldest brother see that the younger brother is only at the level of the Yuanying period?"

"Oh, I can't see it." The man's face suddenly became clear, but his words stagnated Qiu Jiuyi. He couldn't even see that he was in the Yuanying period. What level of cultivation is this guy?

At this time, the last recruitment of the city lord's mansion began to be released: "This is the last recruitment. Experienced friends should have seen that this recruitment will be related to Miss Jiu. Although it is an old rule, I am still reading the recruitment again for some new friends: in this trial, I accompanied Miss Jiu to go 500 meters deep into three layers of land and bring back three strange fruits growing in it, which can be regarded as the completion of the trial. The name of this fruit is: Worry-free fruit!"

"Worry-free fruit!" Qiu Jiu was shocked and blurted out, but saw that the person who was eager to explain himself also blurted out. The two looked at each other. The man raised his hand first and said, "I'm going. My name is Tan Xiaoqing, an alchemist. I'm familiar with all kinds of fairy branches."

One person opened his mouth, and then many people learned from each other, reporting their names and familiar ranges, or cultivation. Seeing that Qiu Jiu didn't say a word, Tan Xiaoqing couldn't help but say, "This brother, you also know Wuyouguo. Why don't you raise your hand to sign up for the trial?"

"Wuyou fruit, how many are there?" Qiu Jiu saw that the number of applicants this time was no more than 50. Tan Xiaoqing smiled and said, "Don't worry, there are hundreds of worry-free fruits, but the growth position is extremely strange and difficult to find. Since the Tie family is willing to release recruitment, they naturally know its approximate growth range. We will follow, only take advantage of it, and there is no loss.

"So that's it. Then I've also signed up." Qiu Jiu also raised his hand: "I also signed up. My name is Qiu Jiu, a demon cultivater, and I know the appearance and characteristics of worry-free fruit."

"Does the cultivation of Yuanying period also want to go deep into the third layer?"

"Damn it, I took Miss Jiu to try, not take your little white face to try!"

"Really, this boy doesn't have a fever and is confused, does he dare to apply to the third floor in his infancy?"

A series of contemptuous comments arous discussion came one after another. Among the audience, only Tan Xiaoqing said to Qiu Jiu in an worshipful tone: "Wow, brother, you are already a master of the Yuanying period. It's amazing!" Qiu Jiu blushed when he heard it. He didn't know whether he was joking or taking it seriously, but when he saw the sincere expression on Tan Xiaoqing's face, he couldn't help asking, "Brother Tan, what is your cultivation?"

Tan Xiaoqing laughed and said, "I don't have any cultivation. I'm an alchemist. Have you ever heard that an alchemist has cultivation?"

Qiuqi said, "Then you are the first to sign up..." The strangest thing for Qiu Jiu is that no one questioned Tan Xiaoqing, who had no cultivation. Tan Xiaoqing laughed and patted Qiu Jiu on the shoulder and said, "Although I don't have cultivation, I have medicine!" No matter how much medicine, tonic, or medicine to increase cultivation, I will give as much as I want. Hearing this, Qiu Jiu finally understood why Tan Xiaoqing was so confident that he could go deep into the third layer area.

Before all the people were destroyed, as an alchemist, he was absolutely safe and worry-free. And there are good exotic flowers, which are also right in his hands and distributed by him uniformly, which are used for refining drugs and which are used for direct use. Even if he is black-hearted and greedy for five or ten plants, no one dares to say no.

"In that case, I'll quit." Qiu Jiu smiled faintly and turned away.

"This boy is familiar."

"That's right, with a little cultivation, I'm not afraid to pull everyone's legs."

"Well, I think he's just itchy. If you don't show me some color, I don't know what his last name is."

The practitioners who remained in the field were sarcastic one after another. Only Tan Xiaoqing looked at the direction of Qiu Jiu's departure and smiled secretly in his heart: "This boy must have gone to buy an ice box."

Tan Xiaoqing was really right. Qiu Jiu's departure just doesn't want to cause unnecessary disputes. With his current strength, he can compete with the practitioners in the Hehe period, but how do those people know? In their eyes, Qiu Jiu is just the strength of the Yuanying period, which will only increase the probability of failure. If there is no trust, even if you join the team, you will soon be abandoned. In this case, it's better to follow quietly. Anyway, my primary goal is worry-free results.
