"No, I didn't see it, and I don't know what happened."
Listening to Li Guanqi's question, Saoirse also looked ugly, biting her red lips, "I have been sitting in the city-state of Aix before and have never left, but when I received the order from the Queen, I was on my way to Larlon
,I was attacked!
The space transmission channel I built was smashed through, and the whole person fell into the space turbulence.
When I crawled out of the space turbulence and returned to the outside world, what appeared in front of me was a purple-red heart suspended in mid-air.
Then it exploded.
I obviously used the spiritual shield to block it, and not a drop of blood was splashed on me, but I...but I...I still felt poisoned...I felt extremely weak and unconscious.
In an instant, all the monsters in the forest around me were poisoned and died.
I felt a little strange, so I walked around the forest a few times to confirm a fact.
I was indeed poisoned.
And it’s a contagious poison, and the source of the poison is me!
I didn't have time to think too much at that time, I just knew that I couldn't let other people be infected by me, so I didn't go to the imperial capital or the city, but tore open a rift in space and found an uninhabited cave to hide.
I originally planned to hide first and then ask the Queen for help.
However, before I could send a remote request to the Queen for help, my consciousness began to become drowsy, I could not think, and soon I fainted completely.
Until... you."
Saoirse looked at Li Guanqi, her beautiful golden eyes flashing with a moving look, "Mr. Li, the reaction you had on me using your pocket watch to teleport away from the star attraction place was equivalent to a mental stimulation, which finally made me recover a little bit.
consciousness.
Because once you use the pocket watch, there will be a reminder on my side, similar to a numb feeling in the fingertips. If you don't respond immediately, the reminder will appear again.
On the fifth day, it was a little heavier.
On the tenth day, I would feel a headache.
On the fifteenth day, I had a severe headache that lasted for one minute.
It was this headache that stimulated me and brought me back to consciousness!
After I woke up, I immediately wanted to ask the Queen for help, but after all, I was too poisoned at that time, and my vision was blurry, so I actually used the messenger magic weapon to turn into a tarot deck for prophecy... and they were both
It's so similar.
But this just saved my life!
I did not activate the messenger instrument, but activated the tarot deck and got the prophecy result of [Eastern].
I relied on this prophecy to come to your side and let you successfully save me!"
Having said this, Saoirse knelt down on one knee and performed a knight's salute. She clenched her right hand into a fist and pounded her left chest heavily. She shouted loudly and seriously: "Mr. Li, you saved my life. It's my Xi
Erza Augustard's savior, according to the glorious knight code, you can make any request to me!"
"Forehead."
As she said this, she felt slightly embarrassed, "But, I am a member of the Queen's Wings, and I have long sworn to dedicate my life to the Queen, so I am sorry that I cannot swear allegiance to you."
"..."
Li Guanqi did not answer, but sighed helplessly.
There is no information at all.
Saoirse didn't even know how she was poisoned, let alone the information about the son of Jiugong-level Tongyou.
However, what is certain now is that... Ying Xiao, the demigod-level spellcaster who could play chase with Luo Di, chose to help the Tulip Empire and even gave away the "National Destiny Condensation Method".
On the side of the Conjuration Academy, there is a son of Tongyou at the Jiugong level who is helping.
"By the way, is Ying Xiao still being hunted by Luo Di?"
Li Guanqi ignored Saoirse's statement just now and just asked out of curiosity.
"Still, still."
Saoirse was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "But the frequency of battles has become shorter. Before I passed out, they had not shown up for 13 consecutive days. According to our demigod knight's inference, it is said that with the passage of time,
Not only did Luo Di not get any more tracking experience, but it became increasingly difficult to find Ying Xiao. It seems that Ying Xiao found a way to counter reconnaissance."
"Mr. Li?"
After that, she continued the topic, "You saved my life, what do you want to ask me for in return?"
"..."
Li Guanqi thought slightly.
He is not going to play any tricks without asking for anything in return, but is going to speak out about his current urgent needs.
Saving people's lives without expecting anything in return is not a virtue that is promoted in the Tulip Empire.
The code of chivalry in the Tulip Empire is about doing good deeds and getting rewarded.
After helping someone, you have the right to ask for something in return.
After being helped by someone, you are also obliged to repay the other person.
The most important thing is that he does have needs now.
The seven-star Great Perfection realm is already visible, but he has almost no resources to increase the spiritual strength to the corresponding upper limit. There is only one clue - the reward for completing the [Ares Armor] mission previously.
That is the address of the Temple of War.
However, there is a high probability that the Temple of War, like the Temple of Ice, had been looted by Pluto's minions back then. I am afraid that I am not too optimistic about the help that the remaining divine power in the temple can provide to Li Guanqi.
What he needs most now is...
"resource."
Li Guanqi looked at the Jiugong-level blond sorcerer in front of him and said seriously: "Miss Saoirse, I really need training resources now!"
"good."
Saoirse nodded heavily, and after thinking for a while, she said: "Then, after you finish pulling the remaining five stars and reach the seven-star perfection, I will help you increase your physical strength to the upper limit of seven-star.
."
Flesh?
Li Guanqi frowned slightly.
The power of the stars in the Beidou sequence is attached to his spiritual power. It is regarded as a spell cultivation. It is naturally the upper limit of spiritual power that can be improved and has nothing to do with the physical body of martial arts.
In order to increase the upper limit of the physical body's strength, after he completed the Beidou sequence, he had to pull the second set of stars.
In other words, he is now a seven-star conjurer, but he is only a Liuhe-level human of different blood.
"No, what I want is to enhance my spiritual power."
Li Guanqi thought of this and then said softly.
"Eh?"
Saoirse was stunned, "But aren't you a knight of different blood?"
Li Guanqi just looked at her calmly and asked, "Her Royal Highness the Queen said that, didn't she?"
"Yes, yes."
Saoirse lowered her head slightly.
The Queen had told him a long time ago that she could not ask more questions about Mr. Li unless the other party told him.
"Then so be it."
Saoirse looked at Li Guanqi and chuckled: "You are still five stars away from completing the Beidou sequence. After you complete the Beidou sequence, I will help you increase your spiritual strength until it reaches the upper limit."
"Well, actually..."
Li Guanqi felt a little embarrassed, "Besides this, my soul strength has also reached level seven, but I haven't been able to raise my soul power to the upper limit. Can you..."
"able!"
Saoirse smiled and patted her chest, "You are my savior. This little thing doesn't matter. Just wait for me."
After saying that, she lowered her head and began to search for her space rings. First she brought out a huge bronze cauldron with oriental characteristics and engraved with dragons, phoenixes and animals. It was nearly 2 meters tall and was taller than Li Guanqi.
Then, she continued to take out precious medicinal materials one by one, some of which Li Guanqi knew, and some that she had never heard of.
"Miss Saoirse, are you going to make a potion on the spot? A magic potion?"
Li Guanqi asked curiously.
"Potion?"
Saoirse turned over the medicinal materials and replied: "No, what I want to refine is not a medicine, but an elixir."
"Elixir?"
Li Guanqi looked surprised.
In this world, instead of directly swallowing the blood of cursed spirits and the flesh and blood of monsters, a more advanced method is to collect materials and create "refined products".
This kind of refined products can basically be divided into two types: Western medicine and Eastern elixir.
Because generally speaking, directly swallowing alien blood and demon blood and flesh requires digestion time, and this time is still very long.
But things are different with refined products, which shorten the digestion time to the shortest possible time.
The children of the great nobles have been drinking potions as drinks and eating elixirs as jelly beans since they were young, so they can practice very quickly.
However, due to the existence of the "Plunder" spell, Li Guanqi rarely takes these refined products because he does not need to. With the digestion ability of the "Plunder" spell, he has an explosive full level. It is almost instantaneous digestion, and he can eat it directly.
Alien blood and demonic flesh and blood.
But even so, he had taken medicine.
However, things like elixirs... Li Guanqi thought about it, and it seemed that he had never taken any elixirs before.
"Miss Saoirse, where did you learn alchemy?"
Li Guanqi looked at her curiously.
At this time, the Jiugong-level blond sorcerer has dug out all the materials and is currently suspending them in mid-air, undergoing the process of selecting and processing materials before making alchemy.
"Daluo Dynasty."
Saoirse stared intently, her slender white hands were like playing a piano, tapping gently in the air, white-gold spiritual power rippled out, and she pulled out some medicinal materials that looked like a combination of ginseng and dragon fruit in the air.
of hardened protrusions.
"Have you ever been to Daluo?"
Li Guanqi blinked.
"certainly."
Saoirse looked back at him with a smile on her face, "Who do you think accompanied the Queen when she went to Daluo Qingxuan Valley? It was me."
"By the way, can I ask?"
Hearing this, Li Guanqi couldn't help but become curious, "I heard you tell some stories before. Judging from those things, the Queen had already ascended the throne when she went to Daluo Qingxuan Valley. As the lord of the empire,
Why did she go deep into the hinterland of another country back then?"
"To find someone."
Saoirse withdrew her gaze and continued to process the medicinal materials. She said while processing: "I followed Her Majesty the Queen to Daluo Qingxuan Valley in order to find an alchemy master who lived in seclusion in that valley. We wanted to find him.
He asked for a pill to treat the old marshal."
"Old Marshal?"
Li Guanqi raised his eyebrows slightly, "The Tulip Empire has only one marshal, the formation master, Smith Otterstein Joseph?"
"Yes."
Saoirse nodded lightly, "We went there with a token. As long as we have that token, no matter who it is, Master Qingxuan will accept him as his disciple and teach him alchemy.
But the Queen and I did not become apprentices for the sake of the past.
In fact, we never thought that the weird master who was a magician from southern Xinjiang but chose to settle in the Daluo Dynasty would teach us two foreigners the art of alchemy. At first, we just thought about using this
An opportunity to recruit a disciple in exchange for that pill."
"ah?"
Li Guanqi was stunned, "Southern Xinjiang? I thought that Master Qingxuan was from Daluo, but it turned out to be from Southern Xinjiang... But since he is a magician, why did he choose to settle in the Daluo Dynasty, which is the most discriminatory towards magicians?
?”
"God knows."
Saoirse smiled and said, "That old man is very strange. You can't think clearly or guess what he's thinking."
"What happened next?"
Li Guanqi looked at her curiously, "Did you succeed?"
"OK."
A flash of reminiscence flashed through Saoirse's eyes, and she sighed softly: "Things went very smoothly, surprisingly smoothly. We found Master Qingxuan and successfully got him to refine a life-saving elixir, which allowed the old Marshal Joseph to live for a long time.
today.
But, the matter is not over.
Because at that time, after the alchemy was completed, Master Qingxuan actually said that the Queen and I were both excellent talents in alchemy and wanted to accept us as disciples and pass on what he had learned to both of us.
This is the top alchemy technique in the East.
Master Qingxuan's alchemy level ranks among the top three in the entire East, and he is actually willing to teach us.
The Queen and I naturally agreed and stayed in Qingxuan Valley for a while to learn alchemy from Master Qingxuan.
But, um..."
Speaking of this, Saoirse's delicate and lovely face showed a little helplessness, "The turning point of the matter occurred a month after learning alchemy. The Queen and I were refining alchemy, but another person suddenly broke in.
This valley."
"Ah, I see, that person is a man."
When Li Guanqi heard this, he couldn't help laughing, "It's my master, Wang Xiu. It turns out that's how he first met the Queen in Qingxuan Valley."
"yes."
Saoirse couldn't help but smile, with crooked eyes, "At that time, the Queen and I hid our identities to learn alchemy, and naturally also hid our cultivation. It was under this situation that the Queen and Mr. Wang Xiu
The spark of love was sparked, and then the following things happened.
And the most important thing is that the Queen was completely fascinated by Mr. Wang Xiu. She didn't even learn alchemy and just ran out to play with Mr. Wang Xiu.
In the end, I was the only one left to study alchemy with Master Qingxuan.
At that time, Master Qingxuan was so angry that he said that the Queen of the Empire was obviously a stupid girl who had committed a nymphomaniac, but the Queen at that time was already hundreds of years old, hahahaha!"
At the end of the sentence, Saoirse laughed happily.
Obviously, that period of time was very wonderful and wonderful for her.
Li Guanqi also smiled when he saw this.
Next, Saoirse chatted with him about interesting stories from the past, while she began to burn the cauldron to make elixirs. The red flames burned blazingly in the cauldron, and she kept throwing the processed materials into it, amidst the raging flames.
Gradually merge and turn into the shape of a pill.
During this process, Li Guanqi just watched the excitement.
After all, he is an outsider. For this kind of technology that only an expert can understand, a person like him who has never been exposed to alchemy can naturally only see the light of the fire.
But that's not important.
The important thing is that according to Saoirse's explanation in the middle, the elixir she is refining is called [Seven Transformations Soul Cleansing Pill]. It is said that it will cleanse his soul from beginning to end as many as seven times, and then the elixir will
During this process, all the medicinal power of the medicine will be integrated into the soul.
If nothing unexpected happens, after seven soul cleansings, his soul strength will be directly raised from the early seventh level to the peak seventh level in one go.
And his current situation is...
[Soul:lv.70(70.8)]
A real early stage of seventh level.
"Miss Saoirse, this elixir should be very precious. After all, it can directly fill up a huge realm of soul..."
Li Guanqi looked at Saoirse who was burning a cauldron to refine elixirs, and blinked.
"precious?"
Saoirse smiled and said, "Well, it is indeed very precious, but at least I think that my Saoirse's life should be more expensive than this pill, right? Mr. Li, you saved my life. This
Nothing in return..."
"Teng!"
Before she finished speaking, the Jiugong-level female sorcerer suddenly focused her eyes, clenched her hands suddenly, and the red flames inside the giant bronze cauldron burst out with a scorching heat wave.
Li Guanqi was slightly startled, thinking something had gone wrong while refining the alchemy.
But soon, the flames in the cauldron began to shrink sharply, until the flames were completely invisible, and a rich fragrance began to permeate the air. Just one whiff made Li Guanqi feel that his soul was numb with pleasure.
.
"Buzz——"
Saoirse waved her right hand, and the lid of the bronze alchemy tripod flew up, and the blue light inside shone brightly.
In Li Guanqi's extremely expectant eyes, a flashing blue light slowly flew out from the inside of the alchemy cauldron and floated in mid-air.
"This elixir cannot be stored, eat it quickly!"
However, Saoirse hurriedly opened Li Guanqi's mouth, then grabbed the blue light point and stuffed it in, "Also, be patient, taking the Seventh Transformation Soul Cleansing Pill is equivalent to enduring the soul being pulled and kneaded seven times.
The pain is so severe, but you just have to endure it and it will be fine.”
Li Guanqi didn't even know what the seventh-turn soul-cleansing pill looked like, so he ate it directly.
This elixir melts in the mouth, and there is no feeling of swallowing at all. As soon as it hits the tongue, the elixir turns into an icy cold current and rushes straight into the brain, just like when he was a child, he put a piece of ice in his mouth in the winter.
General.
"boom!"
After the icy cold current, there was a roaring sound, which exploded directly in Li Guanqi's mind.
And then...
…
…
"Um?"
Li Guanqi opened his eyes, looked at the scene in front of him, and was slightly stunned.
The dim blue ocean seems endless...
This is the depth of his soul.
"Ah, I remembered it all."
Li Guanqi closed his eyes and murmured softly.
As soon as he returned to this place, his memories of the previous meetings that were sealed by Pluto were completely restored and he remembered them completely.
"Pluto..."
Li Guanqi opened his eyes again and looked at the soul body of a god and demon that appeared in front of him, with a helpless expression, "So, every time my soul improves, I have to come here to see you? And then I wait for you to give me some
What kind of law enlightenment is needed to seal the memory and let me out? By the way, my soul has not broken through this time."
"In addition to breaking through the realm, raising too much soul power at once will also... Also, believe me, I don't like this even more than you do."
Pluto turned his back to him, sitting cross-legged on the water of the soul power ocean, and said calmly, "However, at least this time it is a good thing for you. After all, if you stay here, you don't have to endure the seven-turn soul cleansing.
Dan's torture is equivalent to chatting with me for a while, closing and opening your eyes, and getting a peak seventh-level soul when you go out, isn't it good?"
"..."
Li Guanqi narrowed his eyes slightly, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly said: "Hey, Pluto, I have a question for you."
