Chapter 227

The faint consciousness gradually became clear.

After absorbing and integrating the light ball given by the ancient sage, Xu Jiu opened his eyes.

The sight is still not a dark ritual field, but a huge underground cave.

At first, Xu Jiu thought it was the people of the secret society who turned on the light, so he saw this scene, but then he realized that there was no stone platform where he had lying before.

Not only that, there are fuzzy boundaries or fog shrouded areas in most of the surrounding areas.

This is obviously not what a normal environment should have.

Xu Jiu didn't think that the evil doer dared to face himself after he was beaten by himself, but he was subconsciously alert.

After looking around, I didn't find the enemy. On the contrary, I found a very exquisite blue gray stone gate standing in front of me.

The circular arch with a height of nearly five meters and a width of about three meters depicts a large number of refined arrays. There are also a large number of mysterious patterns between the Dharma arrays, and energy flows from time to time.

The appearance is incompatible with the space surrounded by broken stones and stone columns.

"Firm, positioning, passage..."

Xu Jiu's eyes lingered in the refining array on the door, whispering their respective abilities.

wait.

The ability to form an array?

Xu Jiu was stunned for two seconds and suddenly grinned.

He found that he could actually see most of the refining array on the arch, and immediately realized that this should be the knowledge given by the ancient sage.

To Xu Jiu's satisfaction, these knowledge can be directly reflected in his mind, just like instinct. When he sees it, he will react.

So I thought how wonderful it would be if the ancient sage gave this method to himself.

The parents of those children who took the exam in Wusu city had to hurry to send money

Without thinking much about this, Xu Jiu quickly thought that the reason for this scene was probably related to his new abilities.

Before the awakening ceremony, Xu Jiu specifically asked Jing Shu what kind of ability she might gain after becoming a mystic, and the latter gave a very direct answer.

uncertain!

Facts have proved that every mystic will have a unique harvest in the process of awakening ceremony. For example, in the ability obtained by Jing Shu, there is the restoration and reproduction of things, and the same ability does not appear in other mystics.

It is precisely because of this that she will go to the four seasons special area to perform tasks during the period when she has just awakened and should be cultivated.

of course.

This is not to say that every mystic has different abilities, and many people obtain the same abilities.

What kind of ability will make you hallucinate for no reason, and it is still such a real illusion?

The stone gate in front of him was obviously the key. Xu Jiu stepped up and found that the position of the stone gate was also strange. It was actually in the center of the underground karst cave, with open stone fields in front and behind.

He raised his hand to touch the refining array on the door frame and looked at the door. Xu Jiu didn't think someone was full and put the door here as an ornament.

The sight wandered back and forth, and suddenly solidified at a certain moment.

Xu Jiu's eyes flashed a touch of surprise. He immediately jumped up, suspended in front of the arch, and looked at the familiar spell engraved in the middle.

Xu Jiu didn't expect to see the mantra on the stone tablet in the remains of the yuemian sect originally obtained from the secret society, and some new knowledge emerged in Xu Jiu's mind at the first time.

In a brief silence, the palm brushed the surface of the arch and whispered an obscure spell.

The last syllable falls.

The surface of the arch is suddenly full of light, and several refining arrays bloom at the same time.

A colorful halo appeared in the originally empty door, but it began to rotate again in just a few seconds and turned into a breathtaking streamer vortex.

Xu Jiu raised her eyebrows and stepped in without thinking.

From the moment he saw the mantra, he vaguely guessed the origin of the illusion. No matter what behind the door, he had to take a look, otherwise he might not even sleep well tonight.

In the blink of an eye, the cold wind swept up under itself, and the wind roared in my ears.

Xu Jiu stared and fell from the sky.

Lying on his back calmly, he looked at the bloody full moon in the sky. There seemed to be something in it, but it disappeared when he wanted to see it carefully.

After a pause, Xu Jiu vaguely heard some noise from below and hurriedly turned around.

The pupil contracted suddenly.

Under the bloody moon gauze cage.

A huge building is suspended in the sky.

......

Time came late into the night.

In the cafe outside the secret society, beige lights are reflected on the glass wall, and the aroma of coffee is relaxing.

The rain has decreased a lot and the traffic control on the streets has been lifted.

Traffic between the cafe is no longer deserted.

On the second floor, near the window, Xu Jiu, Jing Shu and Max sat opposite each other, with a pile of food in front of them in addition to coffee.

In addition to the small cake, there are barbecue and soup pot

Fuling arched back and forth in the center of the table like a bulldozer. After eating and drinking enough, he jumped back to Xu Jiu's arms.

In fact, the cafe only offers some snacks.

However, Xu Jiu wants to eat. This store is also the industry of the secret society. He can only go to another store quickly to buy it.

"Your Excellency, your excellency, Mr. Xu?"

Max looked at Xu Jiu, who leaned on the sofa opposite, smiled and began to Daze again.

After waking up half an hour ago, Xu Jiu had this situation from time to time. It was clear that he asked himself to ask about the awakening ceremony. As a result, he was in a daze and stopped talking after a few words.

"It's not stupid, is it?"

Thinking of this possibility, Max couldn't help showing a worried look on his face. He turned to look at Jingshu next to her. Her expression was similar to the former.

"Hmm? Well... Sorry, I think of something happy."

Rubbing Fu Ling's stomach, Xu Jiu still couldn't help recalling the scene he saw in the dreamland.

you 're right.

Sky city!

It takes no time to find a place with broken iron shoes. That should be the case.

Facts proved that Xu Jiu's previous speculation was correct. The building depicted on the stone tablet of the remains of the crescent sect was the cathedral at the top of sky city, but he didn't expect that the spell was the key to open the door.

As soon as she read this, Xu Jiu was glad that she didn't give up because of the uncertainty of the awakening ceremony.

Unfortunately, after seeing the sky city, the illusion ended. Rao Shixu Jiu tried his best to speed up and couldn't take a look.

The expression suddenly stagnated and found that the two people opposite were eager to talk and stopped. Xu Jiu inevitably sipped his coffee in embarrassment and pulled his scattered attention back to business.

Specially brought them out to ask about the awakening ceremony, but Xu Jiu didn't come up straight and asked about the situation in the dreamland.

"The protection of your ritual site is not very good. Evil spirits broke in halfway through the awakening ceremony. I'm afraid it would be very difficult to keep your place if I didn't have some ability."

Xu Jiu decided to find a hot topic to hold down the field first, and later he could ask for other information.

This is a big truth. If Xu Jiu fails in the dreamland, the evil spirit of getting the ball will inevitably usher in a strong outbreak.

There are strange jellyfish in the bead. I don't know how many years of biological souls have accumulated. Xu Jiu can't use it, which doesn't mean that evil can't use it!

This topic seemed to be a little too hot. Mike, who had just picked up the coffee cup opposite, shook his hand and sprinkled some on the key position between his legs. She hurriedly wiped it. Jing Shu seemed to choke on the cake and cough.

Sneaking into the headquarters of the secret society is one of the most tightly guarded places.

If the news gets out, will the researchers in the headquarters still be able to sleep?

Not to mention that the secret society is now looking for evil in Wusu city. In the end, the other party is making trouble under his nose, but the secret society can't notice anything. It's really a shame to say it.

"At present, there are still two hidden evils in Wusu city. I don't know what you're talking about..."

When it comes to the security of the secret society, Max immediately gets nervous and doesn't care to wipe the wet marks on his pants. He asks in a hurry.

"Of course, I want to grab the end of the round bead. Its ability is somewhat similar to that of the dream weaving spider, but the latter is to make dreams, and its ability... I can't tell. By the way, the monsters in the rattan marsh next to the temple in the four seasons special area also appeared at that time, and there are a bunch of disgusting monsters with mushrooms all over."

Xu Jiu couldn't give a clear conclusion about the sinister ability. He could only tell the two people what he saw as much as possible. The rest depends on what the secret society can analyze from this information.

"Mushroom, wait a minute. Is it in this state?"

Like what he thought of, Max took a quick action to remove the secret machine from his secret society and sent out a few pictures from him to Xu Jiu.

"This is a large number of victims in Wusu city during your awakening ceremony. At that time, we suspected that it was the evil spirit No. 03, but we couldn't discuss the significance of it... It was originally to recapture the round pearl and even sacrifice the believers accumulated in recent years."

While talking, Max looked at Xu Jiu with a little more judgment and surprise.

You should know that the evil spirit of No. 03 has been lurking in Wusu city for a long time. It is highly dangerous to evaluate it in the secret society. Now it launches an attack in this way.

As a result, in the mouth of the man in front of him, he was so understated that he was solved.

Is this really reasonable?

"Ha! No wonder that guy looks so angry after being beaten by me. Now is a good opportunity to seal it. If you can find it, feel free to contact me."

Xu Jiu now wants to seal the evil spirit more than anyone. After all, only by completely eliminating it can Yuanzhu return to normal.

"Don't worry, sir. The tracking of the remaining two evil spirits is already in progress, and there are certain clues."

The vision of the crown level special area undoubtedly stimulated the secret society. In order to step up the sealing of evil deeds, we can say that we have spared no effort and applied for support from the official government.

"One more thing, after I finished the awakening ceremony, I found that I dreamed of some strange scenes related to the ruins. The strange thing is that I have never been to the ruins, but I have learned about them through some channels."

While Max and Jing Shu are worried about the evil things, Xu Jiu turns to the problem he really wants to know,

"What is this?"

"Predictive power!"

Jingshu heard Xu Jiu's description and gave the answer immediately. The latter was shocked and turned to look at her, waiting for the next explanation.

But Max finally picked it up,

"Similar abilities have appeared in our mystics in the past. They can predict certain situations through some nuances... Different from knowing what may happen in the future out of thin air, the ability of prediction requires you to know something very well first, and then some relevant situations will appear when you start the ability."

"How can I actively use this ability?"

Xu Jiu almost immediately thought that he might use this ability to find the location of the crystal fragment of sage.

"Well, I'm afraid I can't."

"What do you mean?"

"Because you asked this question means that the ancient sage did not give you the ability to actively use foresight. According to the experience accumulated by the secret society in cultivating secret scholars over the years, this kind of ability must be activated independently in a special environment."

Max's meaning is easy to translate.

What the ancient sage gave you can be used. What it didn't give, it can't be realized.

"Gee, this is bullshit."

Grabbed the kebab and chewed it. Xu Jiu spat in disappointment.

Recently, with the promotion of magic form, flame fist and the refining success of Dragon Ridge, it has four kinds of extraordinary abilities of invasion level.

In contrast, the consumption of spar energy is also increasing in every fierce battle.

The energy reserve that was surplus when the second fragment was collected now seems to be a little stretched.

Because of this, Xu Jiu urgently wants to collect more spar fragments.

"Your Excellency, this is actually a good thing. Becoming a mystic does not mean that you can use unlimited ability. Such extremely special abilities involving prediction and other effects, without exception, have to pay a corresponding price... The more powerful the ability, the heavier the price."

As a senior member of the secret society, Max has met many mystics. He is also one of the makers of the awakening plan. He is clear about the possible consequences of the ceremony.

There has never been a free lunch in the world.

It is not so much that the ancient sage is unwilling to give Xu Jiu the ability of independent prediction.

In fact, it is more likely that Xu Jiu can't afford the heavy price brought by this ability!

"Knowledge is curse."

Seeing Xu Jiu falling into silence, Jingshu next to her made up a sentence,

"You will gradually realize it later."

Not everyone can accept the gifts of ancient sages.

"Since you chose to complete the awakening ceremony, there is no regret, ancient sage... Unfortunately, you didn't really see it."

Xu Jiu took a sip of coffee, smacked his mouth and put it down. Instead, he picked up the iced juice next to him. He still preferred this taste.

Jingling bell~

The phone suddenly rang. Xu Jiu, who was going to talk about other things, looked down at the screen.

A communication request from Hobbes.

It seems that Xinmu group has prepared the reward and is waiting for him to get it.
