Chapter 128: Chapter 92: The Mysterious Relic of the Fifth-level Cultivation Country (6k)_2

Seeing this scene, Zhou Qing couldn’t help but feel a bit startled.

He didn’t expect this item to come from a fifth-level Cultivation Country.

It appears that both the Life-Purchasing Paper from yesterday and these two items in front of him likely came from the same place.

The imperial family’s depths are indeed unfathomable.

But where did he get them from?

However, this had nothing to do with him; he was just here to make money.

Just as Zhou Qing was about to pretend to think by patting his forehead, the Seventh Prince presented a plate first.

On the plate were over forty sparkling mid-grade Spirit Stones.

Yan Xiaohu, standing nearby, drooled at the sight.

"No matter which one Brother Zhou remembers, I hope you won’t dislike this small token!" said Xuanyuan Yichen.

Zhou Qing’s eyes lit up, and he felt a wave of excitement.

Right now, what he needed most was money, especially from someone as noble as this.

Zhou Qing coughed lightly and smiled, "Brother Yichen is too polite. Let me think a little longer."

After a while, Zhou Qing clapped his hands and said, "I remember now, this item seems to be called the Four Ghosts Saluting Gate."

"Four Ghosts Saluting Gate? Are you sure?" Xuanyuan Yichen immediately became excited upon hearing the name.

Zhou Qing nodded, thoughtfully glancing at him.

It seemed like he knew something.

Yan Xiaohu mumbled quietly, "What Four Ghosts Saluting Gate? Shouldn’t it be the Black Spirit Sect?"

Zhou Qing said, "It’s the Four Ghosts Saluting Gate. The booklet recorded it having strong sealing abilities, especially the four ghost images being the most crucial. However, activating it is not easy, and the specific method is unknown."

Zhou Qing didn’t dare say that this item could seal Spirit Severing Realm cultivators. Some things were best kept to oneself.

Throughout the Holy Martial Dynasty, there were only a dozen or so in the Spirit Severing Realm. If they knew something could threaten them, it would cause unimaginable chaos.

Moreover, since this Seventh Prince could tell its authenticity, he should know its purpose.

"Thank you!"

After Zhou Qing finished speaking, Xuanyuan Yichen thanked him profusely and handed over forty mid-grade Spirit Stones without hesitation.

"And this—" He pointed to the last black needle, seemingly wanting to verify something.

Zhou Qing frowned and said, "My memory is still a bit fuzzy. Maybe tomorrow, I’ll remember."

Xuanyuan Yichen said, "Alright, I will come back tomorrow. Thank you so much."

"You’re too kind!" Zhou Qing said with a big smile.

Soon, Lu Yaoyao and the Ninth Princess came over. Lu Yaoyao looked proud and said, "How’s that, Brother Zhou is amazing, right? Nothing in this world can stump him."

The Ninth Princess nodded repeatedly, "I didn’t expect Brother Zhou to be so knowledgeable and help solve my brother’s problem in no time."

Zhou Qing felt a bit embarrassed hearing this.

"It was just a coincidence. I used to think those things at street stalls were just idle pastimes, but it turned out they were real. If I had known, I would have paid more attention." Zhou Qing said with a smile.

Xuanyuan Yichen looked a bit anxious and then said, "Alright, we won’t disturb Brother Zhou’s rest. We will come back tomorrow."

Lu Yaoyao quickly said, "How about you guys go ahead? Sister Mu Qian and I will stay a little longer."

Xuanyuan Yichen glanced at the silly chicken pecking at their shoes and said, "I see Brother Zhou looking tired. It’s better we don’t disturb him. We will come back tomorrow."

"Alright, Brother Zhou, we’ll take our leave. See you tomorrow!" The Ninth Princess bowed.

Lu Yaoyao was hesitant to say more.

Zhou Qing then said, "Alright, I cultivated all night last night. I need some rest. I won’t see you out."

After a bow, they left.

Yan Xiaohu stared at the plate full of sparkling mid-grade Spirit Stones, almost drooling.

"Old Four..."

"Third Brother, see them off for me!" Zhou Qing waved, and a mid-grade Spirit Stone landed in Yan Xiaohu’s hand.

Yan Xiaohu immediately beamed with joy.

"Don’t worry, leave it to me!" Yan Xiaohu said and quickly chased after them.

Zhou Qing smiled and shook his head, looking at the Spirit Stones on the table with excitement.

Counting this batch, he now had seventy-nine mid-grade Spirit Stones, enough for two trips to the Divine Ruins Celestial Palace.

He needed to quickly attempt to pass through the Gravity Zone; at least he needed to increase his success rate. Otherwise, what would he do if the Supreme Elder summoned him again?

If he didn’t refuse, entering there would mean those Golden Core Realm wandering souls would surely devour him.

If he refused, the Supreme Elder might feel embarrassed and not summon him again. Then what?

He had a feeling that the scroll in the green mist was important to him.

After a short rest, he resumed practicing the second technique.

Soon, on the third day, Xuanyuan Yichen and the others came again with high expectations.

Zhou Qing immediately identified the item.

[Ghost Stitching Needle: An item from a certain fifth-level Cultivation Country, capable of stitching soul wounds, especially effective on fragmented Divine Souls. However, the thread used for stitching comes at the cost of the stitcher’s lifespan.]

Seeing the introduction, Zhou Qing couldn’t help but frown.

The Yellow Official Paper, Four Ghosts Saluting Gate, and Ghost Stitching Needle, although from a mysterious and powerful fifth-level Cultivation Country, all seemed sinister.

One buys lives, one separates souls, and one stitches Divine Souls. What exactly was this fifth-level Cultivation Country?

Zhou Qing looked at the forty mid-grade Spirit Stones already placed on the table and said, "This item is the Ghost Stitching Needle, capable of stitching soul wounds..."

This time, he noticed a flash of joy in the Seventh Prince’s eyes, as if he had anticipated it.
