Chapter 749: Slow Down

Shi Mu drifted in the turbulent space for an unknown amount of time, and his nerves, which were a little tense at first, gradually relaxed.

Thinking of myself breaking into the Black Demon Starfield with Yanluo and dealing with so many great powers in the divine realm, when I think about it now, I still feel like a dream, a little unreal.

In any case, I have gained a lot this time. Among the demon-slaying tokens, I have already accumulated a lot from the Black Demons of the holy rank and the heavenly rank, not to mention the two of them, Di Zhe and Chi Bie. The gods are powerful.

Speaking of it, these two guys are really unlucky enough. If it wasn't for the two people's way of transforming gods and comprehension, they were forcibly extracted by Yan Luo, resulting in a sharp drop in their cultivation level, and they happened to have the Tianji stick sheath, the number one refining weapon in Kunlun back then It is impossible for him to take advantage of the spirit treasure refined by Shigong Shuzi with all his painstaking efforts.

But I have to think of a suitable reason, otherwise I am afraid that even Qinglan Shengzu will be so shocked that his jaw will drop when he finds out!

Of course, the biggest gain of this trip is that my incarnation outside the body, by chance, absorbed a god-level corpse whose strength was no less than that of the former Kunlun Lord in his lifetime, and now his cultivation level is higher than his own. So a cut.

It seems that after I go back this time, I have to prepare well to hit the holy rank, otherwise I will not even be as good as my avatar in the future, but it is really unreasonable.

Just as Shi Mu was thinking wildly, the seven-colored light in front of him suddenly flourished, filling his field of vision.

When his vision recovered and the foreground became clearer, he suddenly found himself in a vast starry sky.

There was a golden light in his eyes, and he swept around, confirming that he should have returned to Miyang Starfield at this moment, and appeared at the high altitude of Fudao City, the stronghold of the Black Demons.

Because not far from his right hand, he could clearly see the flickering black light and the tumbling magic energy, which was exactly where the space channel was.

It's just that now, the Dark Demon guards who were originally patrolling all around are gone, not even the spherical light curtain that originally wrapped this place is gone.

Unleashing his divine sense to scan, he found that now the entire floating island city has been emptied, and it has become a completely empty city.

After a little thought, Shi Mu understood.

The two tribes of Shi Wuya and Yunlu were forced to come to the Miyang Starfield through the space channel in order to avoid the invasion and chaos of the ancient barbarians. Now that the matter has been resolved, they naturally don't need to stay here anymore.

It's just that they don't know what the people of the three holy places will think when they learn that the Dark Demons who have troubled them for many years have suddenly retreated, and they have retreated so thoroughly.

He took a deep look at the space passage, then turned around, summoned the dragon feather speeder, and flew away from the floating island city.

Three days later.

Among the sea of ​​pumice stones, the people stationed here at the Three Great Sacred Grounds were surprised to find that the Black Demons had really withdrawn from the Miyang Starfield this time, not because of any conspiracy or trick.

Not only was there not a single Dark Demon figure in the entire star field and the occupied planets, even their stronghold, Floating Island City, was nowhere to be seen.

This scene disappointed many people who had accepted the task of the Demon Slaying Order and rushed to the front line with great enthusiasm, hoping to accumulate merit by hunting the Black Demons.

However, while the top management of the three holy lands were puzzled, they were ecstatic.

In one of the great halls of the floating castle fortress, more than a dozen saints from the three holy places gathered here.

The elders of the three holy places stood together, and there was a faint hostility between them. The atmosphere was tense, and no one spoke for a while.

"Everyone, what do you think of the sudden retreat of the Black Demons?" A green-robed old man at the late stage of the Holy Land in Qinglan Holy Land coughed dryly and said.

"Fellow Daoist Qingbeard has always been superior in knowledge, why don't you make a high-level comment first." A black-faced man from the Cloud Chasing Sword Sect said coldly.

When the old man with the blue beard heard the other party's obviously thorny words, his face darkened, as if covered with a layer of frost.

"Everyone, we are discussing the matter of the Black Demons together today, so please don't get involved. The Black Demons matter has been involved for so many years, and it is not like there have been similar incidents during this period. We must treat it with caution." A Lichen Sect The middle-aged man with a red face said in a deep voice.

This person's cultivation base has reached the peak of the holy rank, and he is the strongest among the people present.

As soon as he opened his mouth, the black-faced man from the Cloud Chasing Sword Sect snorted coldly, his expression restrained a little.

"What Ge Daoyou said is not bad. The sudden withdrawal of the Black Demons' troops still cannot be ruled out. They are hiding other plots. Since we have been sent here by the sect and need to be responsible for everything on the front line, everyone should put aside some personal grievances and discuss countermeasures." " said a young woman in a white robe from the Cloud Chasing Sword Sect.

"What's your opinion, Fellow Daoist Yun?" The middle-aged man with a red face from Li Chenzong looked over.

The young woman in white robe pondered for a while, and said: "In any case, since they have left the pumice star sea, our top priority is to immediately occupy the floating island city and completely seal the space passage. In addition, I suggest continuing to send troops to station here. Monitor what's going on here."

As soon as this remark came out, the others immediately nodded, and most of them agreed.

"Fellow Daoist Yun's words are reasonable, but the people stationed here will continue to follow the current model, with our three holy lands forming a coalition, or..." said the middle-aged man in red.

Everyone present glanced at each other, but no one spoke for a while.

"Cough! In my opinion, it's better for our three holy lands to send people in turn." The blue-bearded old man in Qinglan Holy Land coughed and suggested.

"That's good. As long as the space channel can be successfully blocked this time, it is only necessary for someone to guard this place, and there is no need for people from the three holy places to gather here." The middle-aged man with a red face nodded and said.

The three holy lands are hostile to each other, and the high-level officials of these three holy places naturally understand it. These days, the alliance is forced by the pressure of the dark demons to join forces to fight against the enemy. Now that the dark demons have retreated, as long as the situation is confirmed, they will naturally not want to fight again. Face off against people you hate every day.

"Since that's the case, then we will be sent by Zhuyunjian for the first round of duty. After ten years, one of you will come to rotate." The young woman in white robe said.

"That's the way it is." The blue-bearded old man and the red-faced middle-aged man said together.

A few days later, on the square in front of Wanfa Pavilion in Qinglan Holy Land.

On the wide square, there is a high platform of bluestone ten feet wide and narrow. Behind the high platform stands a huge white jade wall, shining with golden light, densely filled with lines of small golden characters.

On the top of the jade biscuit, there are three golden ancient seal characters written: "Slaughtering Demon List."

Zhao Jian's name was impressively placed on the first line under the big characters, followed by:

"Four holy ranks of the Black Demon Clan and one hundred and ninety-seven heavenly ranks will be killed, and a total of 156,300 Xuan Ling points will be rewarded."

The second place after that, the reward of Xuan Ling points is only 43,600 points, the gap with it is really huge.

At this moment, in the open space below the Qingshi high platform, there were more than a thousand people standing densely, all looking up at the high platform.

On the high platform, there were three red sandalwood carved dragon chairs, on which were three holy rank powerhouses with breaths like the sea.

One of them, with a long sword on his back, was dressed in a blue shirt, and he had no beard. He looked dignified, but it was the guardian Yue who was in charge of the Qinglan Discipline Hall.

On the left side is a girl with extremely beautiful appearance and dignified temperament. Her light blue palace dress looks like a lotus coming out of water. It is extremely beautiful, which is in line with her reputation of "Lotus Fairy".

On the right side of Protector Yue, there is an old man wearing a golden robe and embroidered golden dragons. His face is clear and pale, and his beard and hair are white. He is the elder who presided over the affairs of Qinglan's disciples in Xinghai. , Guan Shanhai.

The three of them sat peacefully on the red sandalwood chair, did not talk to each other, but just looked forward with eyes like water.

A middle-aged man wearing the costume of a ten thousand year disciple saluted the three of them, then walked to the front of the stage, and said loudly: "Now that the Dark Demons have completely retreated, the task of the Demon Slaying Order will be terminated soon. Today is the last day , but there are still disciples who participated in the task and haven't handed in the token yet?"

There was a lot of noise under the stage, and the sound of rustling discussions sounded everywhere, but no one came to the stage.

"It seems that Zhao Jian is the first one." Under the stone platform, a monster man with a sharp forehead said to another young man with white hair on his face.

The white-haired young man was also looking up at the white jade, nodded and said: "The winner of this task will not only get an additional 300,000 mysterious spirit points as a reward, but also meet the Holy Master in person and get his personal guidance." It’s an opportunity. That’s one of the three great god realms in our Miyang Starfield, I’m really envious of others!”

"If you ask me, Zhao Jian is the Holy Master's direct disciple. Giving him the opportunity to teach him personally is a waste of money. It's better to give it to the second place." The man from the monster clan said.

The person next to him covered his mouth and whispered to him: "You don't know about this. Last year when I went out with Elder Tu on a mission, I heard him say that Holy Master Li Sheng seems to have been doing this for so many years. Busy with retreat and cultivation, rarely going out, I am afraid that he has given little instruction to Zhao Jian. These years, Zhao Jian is nothing more than claiming the name of the Holy Master's personal disciple."

As soon as the two finished speaking, they heard the voice of the Wannian disciple from the stage: "Noon is approaching, it seems that all of you from the same sect have handed in the demon-slaying tokens. Then I announce that the first day of this magic order mission One is the nephew Zhao Jian."

When everyone in the audience heard the words, they were naturally envious, and various voices of admiration resounded everywhere.

Of course, there are also some sour words of jealousy mixed in.

Zhao Jian's face was indifferent, without any joy of being honored, he walked up the stone steps on the left side of the high platform slowly.

However, as soon as he stepped onto the stone platform, he heard a voice from the right side of the high platform: "Wait a minute, I haven't handed in my demon-slaying order yet."

The voice was not loud, and the tone was very peaceful, but it was transmitted to the ears of everyone present with incomparable clarity, making the scene suddenly quiet.

Zhao Jian's face turned cold, he stopped, and looked towards the opposite side, only to see the light flashing on Shi Mu's body, floating down from mid-air. (To be continued.)
