Chapter 1078 Rest
Lin Qiuheng's previous inaction must have caused Shui Daozi's dissatisfaction.
If he gave Lin Qiuheng the antidote for Yin Yang Cuo alone, what would Shui Daozi and his men think?
It is conceivable that Shui Daozi would definitely hold Lin Qiuheng accountable and investigate his collusion with the enemy afterwards.
Therefore, the only thing he could do was to let Xiaohong chase Shui Daozi and his men and secretly tell them not to hurt Lin Qiuheng.
But there is no absolute in such things, not to mention that there are dozens of other Star Guards besides Xiaohong.
He was afraid that the situation would be chaotic and Lin Qiuheng would be injured by mistake.
Now that he knew that no one in the Five Elements Sect died, it meant that Lin Qiuheng was also fine, which made him a little relieved.
Looking at the embarrassed Xiaohong in front of him, Duan Qing said helplessly: "Let's rest for a while before continuing to move forward!"
Not only did Xiaohong need to rest to replenish his energy source, but he was also very tired from the busyness and fighting in recent days.
In fact, he had been forcing himself to move for half a day. If he didn't rest, even with his strong body, he couldn't hold on!
The Five Elements Sect had just suffered a heavy blow, so they probably had no time to mess up again.
Yu Ya naturally would not object to Duan Qing's proposal.
He knew very well how tired Duan Qing had been these days.
He looked at Duan Qing and said a little embarrassedly: "Junior brother, I, the senior brother, will pay for Xiao Hong's spiritual stones to replenish her energy source!"
Duan Qing had done a lot of work these days, but he could not help much, and giving him more spiritual stones would make him feel better.
Duan Qing waved his hand and did not agree, but silently took out the spiritual stones and gave them to Xiao Hong.
One thing is one thing, Xiao Hong is his star guard, how could he let the senior brother spend money.
He gave Xiao Hong almost 8,000 top-grade spiritual stones in one breath, and Xiao Hong indicated that it was enough.
Seeing Xiao Hong take so many spiritual stones to replenish her energy source, Yu Ya could not help but secretly gasp.
It seems that the spiritual stones that the two had obtained before did not seem to allow Xiao Hong to use them many times!
Duan Qing did not feel distressed when he suddenly lost about 8,000 top-grade spiritual stones on his body.
Spiritual stones are external things, and the most urgent thing now is to let Xiaohong replenish her energy source and maintain her peak condition.
Otherwise, if Shui Daozi and others come again, what can he do to deal with them?
After giving Xiaohong the spiritual stones, Duan Qing went to seal the archway leading to the Five Elements Sect area on the left side of the courtyard with the Wushuang Ban, and then he went through the archway on the north side of the courtyard with Xiaohong and the eldest brother and came to an alley to rest.
It is better to be safe than sorry. Although the Five Elements Sect is unlikely to make trouble again, it is necessary to be on guard.
If Shui Daozi and others come back to kill, with the ban he set up, he can also buy some time and let him prepare in advance.
...
Half a day later, Duan Qing opened his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief
Yu Ya, who was resting with his eyes closed, noticed the movement and opened his eyes, blaming him: "Little Junior Brother, why don't you rest for a while?"
Duan Qing stretched his muscles and said: "It's almost time. Time waits for no one. We have wasted enough time before. We can't waste it any more."
Calculating the time, it has been nearly three months since the opening of the Broken Star Palace. He and his senior brother have also stayed in the Mars Palace for one or two months.
The two of them are now about halfway to the Broken Star Palace. Considering that the speed will be slower and slower as they go further, time is indeed more urgent.
Yu Ya heard Duan Qing say this, and seeing that Duan Qing seemed to have really rested, he no longer insisted and nodded: "Just listen to Little Junior Brother!"
Duan Qing nodded slightly and looked at Xiao Hong: "Xiao Hong, sense the nearby star guards and re-plan the route. Be careful not to overlap with the area of the Five Elements Sect!"
Xiao Hong had also recovered at this time. With just a little sense, she calculated a route and reported it to Duan Qing.
Because they had to avoid the area of the Five Elements Sect, the route planned by Xiao Hong this time would inevitably encounter high-level star guards.
But neither Duan Qing nor Yu Ya raised any objections.
With the Illusion Butterfly, high-level star guards were no longer a problem for the two of them, and they no longer had to waste time taking a long detour to avoid high-level star guards as before.
After determining the route, Duan Qing was about to set off, but suddenly thought of something and took out the black ball he had obtained from the bracelet.
Yu Ya saw the black ball and then remembered that there was this thing.
Too many things had happened before, and the continuous fighting and escaping made him forget about this thing!
"Junior brother, do you know this thing?"
Duan Qing stared at the black ball in his hand and shook his head in confusion: "I don't know either, so I took it out to see if Xiao Hong knew it!"
In his opinion, the treasures in the Broken Star Palace were undoubtedly owned by Broken Star. Xiao Hong was refined by Broken Star, and she had been in the Broken Star Palace for so many years, so she should know a lot of things.
After hearing Duan Qing ask her to identify the object, Xiao Hong immediately set her sights on the black ball and looked at it carefully. She didn't say anything for a while, and it seemed that she didn't recognize the black ball.
After a while, Xiao Hong said, "Xiao Hong doesn't recognize this thing."
The two were very disappointed that they didn't get an answer from Xiao Hong, so they could only study the black ball on their own.
If the treasure born in the six-color light column can be studied for its use, it may help the two in the Mars Palace.
Unfortunately, after all the hard work, the two did not gain anything, but found that this thing was indestructible, and even Yu Ya's purple sky thunder could not hurt the black ball at all.
Yu Ya was a little discouraged and threw the black ball back to Duan Qing: "Little Junior Brother, you should keep it first. After you figure out the purpose of this thing, you can deal with it!"
Duan Qing caught the black ball and put it into the storage bracelet, feeling helpless.
It is a pity to have a treasure in hand but not be able to figure out its purpose.
It seems that I can only ask the master about the origin of this thing after seeing him!
Regrettable as it is, the two did not delay any longer and continued to move forward along the route planned by Xiao Hong.
After breaking dozens of restrictions and formations in one breath, as Xiao Hong expected, a spiritual star guard blocked the two in front of them.
However, under Xiao Die's control, the 875th Mars Guard mentioned by Xiao Hong, in a short time, ended up with the same fate as the spiritual star guard who chased the two before.
With Xiao Hong's induction and Xiao Die's restraint on the star guard, Duan Qing and Yu Ya's forward speed can be said to be unstoppable, and the star guard can no longer be an obstacle to the two.
The only thing that took a lot of time was to deduce the core nodes of the restriction.
However, this high-intensity cracking and deduction also made Duan Qing's attainments in the restriction constantly improve, which in turn accelerated the speed of deduction and cracking.
Therefore, even though the restrictions became more and more difficult, the time Duan Qing spent on cracking the restrictions did not increase significantly, but always maintained a moderate range.
