Cataclysm King - #362 - Chapter 362 The Netherworld Train to the Bai Family
“Aunt Qin also fell under the illusion of happiness?”
“yes.”
Qin Ru’s frank answer extinguished Dong Qi’s gossip.
Happy dreams are, of course, joy.
The answer has been very direct.
Although the three of them are very familiar with each other, they do not deliberately avoid these topics on weekdays.
But if you ask more carefully, the atmosphere will seem strange.
Dong Qi was very sensible and didn’t ask further questions.
Ji Xun didn’t pay much attention.
Although he had guessed some of the operating mechanisms of the Lunar Illusion, for him, those charming thoughts were just some colors in his memory, nothing more.
The tacit understanding that has not been broken is even more subtle.
The three of them and a little girl were eating dinner by the campfire and chatting.
The topic of chat returned to the previous battle in Tailong Machinery City.
Although the largest defense line in the southern part of the Eastern Wasteland was breached this time, the southern continent also lost hundreds of thousands of its main troops. For a long time to come, it will obviously be very difficult to continue the attack in terms of numbers.
Moreover, with the arrival of the moon god Arachne, the Royal Court of Oran has another powerful and mysterious trump card in its hand, and the future battlefield will be more variable.
From the perspective of ordinary people, this time it is a lose-lose situation.
Even Donghuang was slightly better.
But in Ji Xun’s eyes now, he saw more.
Ever since he learned that the essence of this war was a promotion ceremony for top-level extraordinary beings, his perspective was that of a chess piece and a “spectator” other than the two chess players.
From this perspective, those at the top of the southern continent may not have the means to respond to the arrival of the moon god.
It’s more likely that they didn’t take it seriously and just let it go.
Because Donghuang is too weak.
There are indeed god-level dragons in the Southern Continent. The awakening of an old god who has not yet matured may not be a big threat to them.
What’s more, a war has just begun. It’s possible that some senior officials wanted the Oran royal family to have stronger royal power and had the idea of ”fattening them before killing them.”
There may not be some further plans.
What’s more, no matter who wins or loses, the laws of war have been realized, and the military disaster is getting worse.
That’s enough.
As a bystander, Ji Xun also glimpsed some future trends in the deeper aspects of this war from the deduction.
He felt that this war was far from being as simple as it seemed.
The three of them talked about the situation and all felt that working hard to improve their strength now was the best preparation for an uncertain future.
The atmosphere in the outdoor tent is harmonious.
The three of them drank some wine with great interest.
Full of wine and food, and a good night’s sleep.
Qin Rushi, the legendary card master, was only a hair away from breaking through.
I had touched the threshold of “divine power” before and completed the last step to break through the bottleneck.
Now that she has become more stable, she is confident that she can advance to the seventh level.
The career card has been prepared for a long time, and she plans to complete the career advancement as soon as possible.
So in the next few days, the three of them deliberately searched for some remote wilderness caves in the wilderness and found a safe place to retreat.
Ji Xun and Dong Qi helped guard.
The good news is that no pursuers are coming.
During this period, Ji Xun was not idle either.
He poached the moon god’s corner and obtained a large number of [Secret Cause Mediums].
In the past few days, for the sake of safety, he stayed a few kilometers away from Qin Rushi’s retreat place and absorbed these psychic mediums day and night.
As a result, the physical attributes have also skyrocketed visibly to the naked eye, reaching the point where his level is almost overflowing.
At the same time, Ji Xun also discovered another surprise.
Since he touched the threshold of “Space Law” last time, he also found that little Ivan was helpful in understanding the law.
However, I didn’t expect that the help would be so exaggerated.
It feels like you want to understand what “fire” is, and there is no more intuitive and convenient way than placing a stove next to you.
Ivan’s favorite thing to do when he’s full is to sleep on Ji Xun’s head.
This gave Ji Xun the feeling that he was always holding a “space furnace” containing mysterious energy above his head.
If you really want to feel it carefully, Ivan is like an endless void.
This made Ji Xun curious about little Loli’s life experience, and he also confirmed that the Dragon Rebel Army had given him a big gift.
This little loli was sent here to take refuge, and at the same time he was given a generous “reward” for the risk.
The good thing is that Ji Xun’s understanding of the laws of space has skyrocketed, and he has truly gained access to the magical and mysterious method of “Imaginary World”.
Ji Xun was originally not very interested in the career sequence [Seven of Spades – Painter].
But after understanding this mysterious magic method, he discovered that this secret method not only points to the laws of space, but also has the ability to depict the world.
It is the miraculous ability to create the world through imagination.
Plus “I am the world.”
One has strict logical thinking ability, and the other has the ability to turn those concepts into design drawings.
The two seem to have completed the basic framework of the creative field.
This allowed Ji Xun to truly have a correct direction for his “everything field”.
Time flies and a week passes.
This day.
Ji Xun is practicing daily meditation.
Dong Qi was also concentrating on the mountains of mechanical drawings in front of him.
Suddenly, Ji Xun felt a familiar and powerful aura outside the cave, and couldn’t help but exclaimed: “Eh”
Dong Qi on the side looked at him with a strange expression and looked up.
The two of them watched Qin Rushi walk in with a gentle smile on her face.
Dong Qi stood up excitedly: “Aunt Qin, have you successfully advanced?”
“Um.”
Qin Ru’s crystal eyes sparkled, and she nodded with a smile.
I have just advanced, and I have not fully mastered the powerful demonic power newly obtained after the breakthrough.
But it was the faint aura that overflowed that made Ji Xun feel it, and he was surprised in his heart: “So strong!”
It’s not like he has never seen a seventh-level card master.
But unlike Gong Wu or Aragorn, Qin Ruzi has the aura of an immortal spirit and the awe-inspiring aura of a Valkyrie.
Qin Ru looked at the two of them, chuckled and said, “I’ve been troubling you these past few days.”
Her progression was smooth.
Having obtained the secret technique inherited from the Bai family, it is much easier and safer than advancing to Gong Wu by herself.
The strength of the legendary card master is far beyond the ordinary sixth level, and the advanced physical body and law understanding are sufficient; and the divine power, the anchor of the physical body, anchors the physical body without being distorted by the massive demon gods, as expected.
Everything fell into place.
This was the first time Dong Qi saw a seventh-level card master.
After all, this is a “legendary existence” in Donghuang.
She was not as high as Ji Xun and could not clearly perceive the subtle aura of the Immortal Family. However, she also noticed that Qin Rushi had changed a lot, so she asked directly: “Aunt Qin, why do I feel that your whole temperament has changed?” “
Saying that, the feeling was not real, so she took her hand without ceremony.
He touched and pinched everywhere on that proud figure.
Qin Ruzhi patted Dong Qi’s increasingly slender hands angrily, and explained with a smile: “This is the overflowing ‘divine power’. I haven’t been able to fully control it when I first advanced, but it will be fine in two days.”
No wonder.
Ji Xun listened thoughtfully.
Resolute, tenacious, heroic, and feminine, there is also a feeling of being untainted by the gods.
This was very different from the divine power he had seen Gong Wu.
This was the first time Dong Qi had experienced real divine power. He couldn’t hide his surprise and said, “Aunt Qin, is this divine power?”
“Um.”
Qin Ru nodded.
She also knew what the two of them were wondering about, so she added one more sentence: “Divine power is the manifestation of personal will, and everyone is different. Moreover, the ‘divine power’ I understand is even more different from other card masters. In addition to everyone’s will, , and the will of the Immortal Family, so it is contaminated with the spirit of the Immortal Spirit. This advancement is so smooth, thanks to the protection of the Immortal Family’s ancestors.”
Dong Qi seemed to understand.
Ji Xun understood a little bit.
It feels like if the enemy wants to deal with her, they have to deal with her and the Xian family together.
Qin Ru’s combat power was at the top of the East Wasteland before he advanced. How strong is he now?
However, no matter what, successfully advancing is a good thing.
Ji Xun felt that he had plenty of time, so he slowly asked for advice.
“Aunt Qin, are you going to Thieves City?”
“Yes. I had this plan originally. I wanted to go after the battle in Tailong City. Unexpectedly, by chance, I succeeded in advancing to the seventh level. I am more confident about going this time.”
“.”
Ji Thief City is the base camp of the Bai family.
Ji Xun knew what Qin Ru was going to do.
When he was in the Plague Swamp before, the White Snake, who had lived for three thousand years, hinted that if he wanted to obtain the complete inheritance of the Bai family, he had to obtain the three sacred artifacts of the Bai family.
This also seems to be a test.
[Ten Thousand Immortals Lamp], [Immortal Scroll] and [God-Stealing Ring].
Now the ring is in his hand.
The other two pieces are in the hands of the Bai family.
Especially the [Immortal Scroll], which contains countless immortal spells and secrets passed down by the Bai family for tens of thousands of years.
If Qin Rushi wants to master the God Stealing Sequence, he must get this.
But the strength of the Bai family cannot be underestimated.
At the time, the Bai family was not a prominent family among the five major members of the federation, but it was definitely the strongest family.
Now he is the high priest of Oran Royal Court.
If Qin Ru is going to find someone to get the inherited sacred object, those people will definitely not hand it over so easily.
Ever since Ji Xun saw the endless trump cards of the Oran royal family, he had a deep understanding of the heritage of these ancient families passed down from the Talon dynasty.
If you really want to cause trouble for the Bai family, the legendary card master will definitely not be enough.
Even now that Qin Ru has advanced to the seventh level, it’s hard to say.
What’s more, I still go to someone else’s base camp to stir up trouble.
Dong Qi also thought of this and immediately said: “Aunt Qin, I will go with you!”
Qin Ru smiled and shook his head: “I’m not here to fight. I’m not interested in anything about the Bai family. I just want to try to see if I can get the recognition of the inherited sacred weapon.”
Dong Qi now has the Hunter God Armor, which is very powerful in combat.
But she couldn’t wear the armor all the time.
The Bai family’s various mysterious methods are very weird, and you may not get any benefits if you go there.
Dong Qi himself understood.
There was a flash of disappointment in his eyes, but he didn’t say much.
Ji Xun thought about it and asked in a questioning tone: “Aunt Qin, how about you take me with you?”
He has always been very curious about the secret techniques of the Bai family.
If you really have a chance to experience it, you must go.
And he didn’t forget that Qin Ru said before that he wanted to point out his own domain and divine power. If he could accompany him, he would have a lot of time.
Qin Ru glanced at him, a flash of thought flashed in his eyes, and he quickly responded: “That’s fine.”
She knew that when Ji Xun opened his mouth, he must have made an accurate assessment of the risks.
This guy’s character is never one to be deterred by danger.
What’s more, I happened to have advanced to the seventh level, so I was somewhat confident.
Even if the goal cannot be achieved, there are still people who are confident that they can escape unscathed.
Furthermore, Ji Xun’s strength and ability are not weak, but he doesn’t necessarily need to take care of him.
Saying that, Qin Rushi added: “Your Vientiane Domain needs to combine the strengths of many sequences. The Bai family’s secret [Immortal Scroll] has exactly what you need.”
Ji Xun was also happy when he heard this.
He also felt as if he was at a certain bottleneck.
Qin Rushi, a person who has been here, obviously sees things more clearly than he himself.
One day later.
A hundred miles northwest of Tailong Machinery City, there is a mining town called “Rose Town”.
News of the war has spread throughout the Eastern Wasteland through newspapers, panic has spread, and many small towns in the south have become deserted.
Rosetown has also become a ghost town.
There were only empty houses in the town.
The usually busy railway transportation network has also become idle.
This is also convenient for Ji Xun and the others.
At midnight, there was a busy scene at the town’s train station.
A group of mysterious people wearing robotic arms are loading precision instruments onto the train.
This is the receptionist arranged by Song Can.
They will send this batch of equipment to the Song family’s secret base.
Dong Qi also got on the bus.
With her here, there is basically no need to worry about the safety of the transportation mission.
Moreover, the wilderness is not a good environment for a mechanic. A scientific research base with complete equipment and a large number of mechanical experts is the best space for her to grow.
After a while, the train left the station.
There were only two figures on the platform, standing quietly.
Ji Xun and Qin Rushi did not leave, but waited silently for the next train.
After waiting for a long time, it was already past midnight on the pocket watch, but still not there.
After the fall of Tailong Mechanical City, all civilian trains in the area were suspended.
What they were waiting for was obviously not a normal train.
Ji Xun is not impatient, but just curious: “Aunt Qin, is there anything special about that train?”
They were going to Thieves City. They could obviously drive there and it would be faster.
But just now when he saw Qin Rushi burning a spell card that looked like a ticket, he knew that this means of transportation was different.
Qin Rushi looked at the dark distance with his eyes and said: “I only rode it once when I was a child. When I was young, my only impression was that the train was ‘scary’. Well, you will know by then.”
She seemed to recall some childhood memories, but she did not go into details. After pondering for a moment, she added: “After getting in the car, there are many things that I can’t explain clearly. Just be careful when the time comes.”
“Um.”
Hearing this, Ji Xun was even more curious.
He also vaguely guessed that since this train came specifically to pick up people, it might be due to some special rules of the Bai family.
The Bai family knew Qin Ru was going.
This train may not be peaceful.
Qin Ruzhi knew that Ji Xun could understand what she meant, so he didn’t explain much.
The two of them just waited quietly.
It was not until two o’clock in the evening that the sound of billowing steam was suddenly heard outside the deadly silent Rose Town Station.
“Woo. Woo.”
The sound of the whistle echoed in this deserted town, revealing a bit of weirdness.
After a few breaths, Ji Xun looked in the distance and saw a simple-looking steam train slowly approaching.
Obviously there was no sign of an approaching train before, but the train in front of him appeared like a ghost out of thin air.
Ji Xun had been mentally prepared for a long time, so he was not surprised by this magical way of appearing.
More of a curiosity.
However, when he looked at the translucent black antique train entering the station, he seemed to understand it all at once.
“So this train belongs to an immortal?”
Ji Xun looked at the Netherworld train and muttered in his heart.
He was not surprised because he had a similar experience once.
During the development of the ruins of Xia Mu City, Ji Xun, Catalina and Old Man Xu took a disaster train called “Bazquez’s Netherworld Train”.
And the fairy train in front of me is called [Neon].
What’s the meaning.
The dark night is colorful?
Ji Xun instinctively thought of the scene when he was almost trapped and died in the strange time barrier on the train.
This car is not easy to ride in.
Just as I was thinking about it, the train stopped at the station.
The door opened, and a conductor wearing a black windbreaker and a high hat stepped out.
It was as lifeless as I remembered, and its appearance could not be seen clearly.
It stands at the door, waiting for passengers to get on the bus like the Grim Reaper.
Qin Rushi glanced at Ji Xun beside him: “Huh?”
Ji Xun responded with a smile.
The two of them boarded the train calmly.
