Chapter 516 Ten Years Are Coming
"Okay, I see." Leng Cuihuan was silent for a while, said something to the two of them, then turned and flew towards the distance.
In the twilight, her complexion was a little cloudy and uncertain.
She had originally discussed with Shi Mu about the next Qinglan Holy Land entry election, but she didn't expect that the other party was not there.
At the same time, she was also a little worried.
At the beginning, Shi Mu promised to keep her safe for ten years, but now she will be out for five years. I hope nothing happens, otherwise her efforts will be in vain. After all, without Shi Mu's support, Zhao Chenlei may come to her at any time.
The expression on Leng Cuihuan's face flickered, she turned around, and flew back to her retreat, walked in, and closed the door with a "bang".
Afterwards, several layers of formations lit up, covering her retreat layer by layer.
In Shi Muling's land, where the Huolingquan is located, Cai'er's body emits streaks of red light, forming a red light cluster.
Strands of red flame gas gathered and merged into the red light cluster.
"Damn stone, leave me here! It's so boring, I have to practice to pass the time..." Cai'er muttered, opening her mouth to swallow the gathered flames.
...
Time flies, and years pass by in a blink of an eye.
In the northern part of Qinglan City, at the entrance of the ice cave where Shi Mu retreated, the mountain wall that collapsed back then has long been covered with thick snow. It seems that no one has come here for a long time.
At this moment, there was a loud "boom"!
The whole mountain trembled suddenly, and the rocks at the entrance flew towards the surroundings with a bang, hitting the nearby mountain wall, and there was a sound of "slapping" like rain hitting plantains.
The entrance to the buried ice cave is revealed.
A figure in green robe came out from the ice cave, it was Shi Mu.
At the moment, his clothes are shabby, his chin is unshaven, and he looks unkempt, but his eyes are extremely bright.
He slowly raised his right arm, and the whole right arm looked a little pale.
He exerted a little force, and a layer of faint black light immediately appeared on his right arm, and the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped sharply.
The snowflakes flying around immediately turned into pieces of ice, still maintaining the shape of snowflakes, but a layer of white ice emerged outside, and fell to the ground with crackles, as if it was raining.
Ice and snow can also be frozen again. If others see this, they will be surprised.
Shi Mu suddenly let out a low cry, and punched out.
Black light radiated from his right arm, and a bucket-thick beam of pure black light flew out of his hand, hitting a huge sword-shaped mountain hundreds of feet high in a flash.
A muffled sound!
There was a flash of light on the surface of the sword-shaped mountain, and it was instantly covered by a thick layer of ice crystals. Several deep cracks appeared on the sword-shaped mountain, running across the entire mountain, obviously caused by the intrusion of terrifying cold air.
Shi Mu waved his right arm, and the black light on it dissipated.
He looked at the sword-shaped mountain, and a trace of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.
After eight years of closed-door training, after incorporating the blood of the heavenly beasts, and with the help of the top-grade extreme yin energy, the second turn of the Nine Turns Mysterious Kung Fu has finally reached the stage of great achievement.
The second turn of the Nine Turns Mysterious Art is the power of the most yin. It has been cultivated to the state of great achievement, and its power is comparable to the power of the most yang in the left arm. He has saved a lot of strength just now, otherwise all the tens of miles around will be frozen. layer coverage.
Shi Mu's true energy circulated in his body, his brows were slightly frowned, and a layer of red light enveloped his whole body.
Although he completed the second round of Nine-Turn Mysterious Kung Fu, his cultivation has not improved much.
After a while, the red light dissipated, and his body had returned to its previous appearance, and the worn-out blue robe was also replaced.
He didn't stay here any longer, and waved his hand to sacrifice the Qingyi Speeding Vehicle, and flew towards Qinglan City.
Half a month later, in the first floor area of Qinglan Holy Land, a ray of blue light flew from a distance, landed in the cave, and Shi Mu's figure appeared.
"Hey, Shitou, you're finally back!" Shi Mu had just stabilized his body when a group of colorful shadows flew over, and it was Cai'er.
"I haven't been here these years, how is it like here?" Shi Mu smiled slightly, gently stroking Cai'er's feathers.
"With me here, how could something go wrong! That Zhao Chenlei has visited the door two or three times, but I... directed Qi Feng to send them away!" Cai'er complained all over her face.
"Oh, besides him, who else has been here?" Shi Mu said.
"Well, Ma Long, Zi Ling, Qing Changtian have all been here, and besides, that ugly monster Lu Jing has also been here." Cai'er said.
"Okay, I see, you go and call Qi Feng." Shi Mu nodded noncommittally, and said while walking towards the cave.
A moment later, in the cave.
"Palace Master, you are finally back!" Qi Feng looked a little excited when he saw Shi Mu.
Shi Mu nodded, his eyes turned, and he fell on a figure beside him, which was Leng Cuihuan.
"Palace Master, please forgive me for coming here uninvited." Leng Cuihuan saluted Shi Mu.
"It's okay. You've also left customs. I haven't seen you for a few years, but you've reached the middle stage of the earth level. Not bad." Shi Mu said.
"It's all thanks to the cultivation environment that the Palace Master gave me, as well as those cultivation resources... By the way, Palace Master, do you still want to go out this time when you come back?" Leng Cuihuan first thanked, then hesitated for a while, and then asked.
"I'm back this time, and I won't be away for a long time in the short term. Qi Feng, let's talk about the harvest of the spiritual land in these years." Shi Mu said.
"Palace master, these are the bills of income and expenses of the spiritual land and the spiritual grass and the income of the spiritual stones over the years, please have a look." Qi Feng heard this, and quickly took out a jade slip and a storage ring from his arms, and presented them with both hands.
"That's right." Shi Mu took it, glanced at it, nodded in his heart, and said.
In nine years, excluding the rewards given to the attendants, the total income was almost seventy-three top-quality spirit stones. You must know that Shi Mu's spirit land is the barren land of all spirit lands, and he has already earned so much , no wonder so many people are rushing to join Qinglan Holy Land.
"One more thing, my subordinates want to report to you." Qi Feng said again.
"What's the matter?" Shi Mu asked.
"It's like this. It's been less than a year since the ten-year competition. If the Palace Master doesn't participate in this competition, it will be equivalent to giving up his qualifications as a disciple of the Holy Land and he will be forced to leave the Holy Land... According to the rules of the sect, you must participate in the competition." Bi, you must meet the requirements of completing ten tasks within ten years, and you have not gone to Wanfa Pavilion to complete the task, so some time ago, the sect sent someone to urge you." Qi Feng said in a low voice.
"Okay, I know about this. I came back this time to participate in the big competition. I will deal with some trivial matters. If there is nothing else, you can step back first." Shi Mu said with a faint smile.
Qi Feng's face relaxed when he heard the words, he agreed and withdrew.
"Cuihuan, what's the matter, tell me." Shi Mu turned his gaze, landed on Leng Cuihuan, and said.
"Palace Master, the ten-year contract is approaching. I plan to sign up for the entrance trial. I also hope that the Palace Master will guarantee me." Leng Cuihuan said.
"No problem. Besides, if it's during this period, then Zhao Chenlei wants to trouble you, just come and tell me." Shi Mu said.
"Many thanks, Palace Master." Leng Cuihuan said, bowed to Shi Mu again, and also left.
Shi Mu stood in the cave, his gaze was looking into the distance, his expression flickered, he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Shitou, there is only less than a year left before the Grand Competition, are you really sure to complete the ten sect missions? I heard that those missions are not easy." Caier asked.
"Why, you don't have confidence in me either?" Shi Mu glanced at Cai'er and said.
"Of course I have confidence in you, but where have you been for the past eight years, and why did you come back now?" Cai'er asked strangely.
"I'll talk to you about this later." Shi Mu smiled, and immediately left the cave and flew towards the Xuanling Pagoda.
Half an hour later, the Holy Land Wanfa Pavilion.
Here, he came here once when he was getting started.
Wanfa Pavilion is a huge hall, the interior space is as big as a large square.
There are not many decorations inside the hall, only there are blue stone pillars on both sides of the hall, with some exquisite reliefs on them, which looks extraordinary.
In the middle of the main hall stood a huge blue stone wall, above which flashed spiritual lights, and lines of small characters emerged, each line of words was a task.
This jade wall is the task list of Wanfa Pavilion. At this moment, dozens of holy land disciples in blue shirts gathered around, looking up at the task list, discussing something in a low voice in groups of twos and threes.
In addition to the century-old disciple with a green leaf pattern on the chest of the green shirt, there are also several thousand-year disciples with two green leaves on the chest, but they all seem to be alone.
Near the cyan stone wall is a stone platform, and several deacons of Qinglan Holy Land are sitting in it, their eyes are half-closed, and they seem to be resting.
Shi Mu also walked under the stone wall and looked up.
The task text on the stone wall flickers, there are hundreds of them, and the content is also varied, such as hunting high-level monsters, searching for rare ores, spiritual herbs, and even some talisman-making or alchemy tasks. None of it is easy to accomplish.
At this moment, a big man in a blue robe next to him took out the Xuanling Bi and waved it at the stone wall.
A task on the stone wall suddenly turned into a stream of light and flew into his Xuanling Bi.
The person turned around and walked out. Not far away, several Qinglan Holy Land disciples seemed to be waiting for him, and they walked out of Wanfa Pavilion together.
Seeing this, Shi Mu glanced around again.
Although there are many Qinglan Holy Land disciples in the main hall, they are all standing together in clusters in the east and west, obviously they are all in their own teams.
"Hehe, is this junior brother here to pick up the task? I see that you are a bit unfamiliar, but I have never seen it before. I am under Houtong, dare to ask the junior brother's name?" At this moment, a young man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks came over and looked at him. However, he is a hundred-year-old disciple.
"Shi Mu." Shi Mu frowned slightly, but still said his name.
"So it's Junior Brother Shi, nice to meet you." Hou Tong chuckled, glanced at the mark of the upper disciple on Shi Mu's body, and his eyes lit up with joy.
"What's the matter, Your Excellency?" Shi Mu asked.
"Hehe, judging by the appearance of the younger brother, he is here to take on the task, right? Although the younger brother Shi is a high-ranking disciple, the tasks in the Wanfa Palace are very difficult to complete. The younger brother is inevitably weak alone. I wonder if he is interested in joining Hou If you have a team with several people to complete the task together, you will be more confident." Hou Tong said.
A few people stood not far behind him, and they all looked over at this moment.
"Senior Brother Shi!" A clear female voice sounded, and a girl in a green shirt among them spoke in surprise, and walked over quickly. (To be continued.)
