Chapter 696: Treasure Key

"These old guys are very calculating."

Xiao Mu was secretly vigilant, not daring to underestimate any top powerhouse.

Emperor Xuan Ding may be really timid and lacking in courage, but he is also making arrangements, and he cannot see his purpose clearly.

After searching the corpse of the Undead Evil Ancestor, it was a surprise to find two fragments of divine treasures. Xiao Mu put them away with a little satisfaction.

Then he checked Guishou Mountain again. Except for the area where Emperor Xuanding borrowed the corpse, other places in Guishou Mountain were normal, so Xiao Mu left with confidence.

Leaving Guishou Mountain, head south all the way and return to the Datang ruins.

Xiao Mu used the escapism technique and didn't stop there, but when he passed by the site of the ancient Song Dynasty, he happened to meet Xuan Mo.

Xuan Mo had just come out of the ancient Song Dynasty ruins with three mutants in the early stage of the Yin God Realm, and was about to set off to the north. Judging by the posture, it seemed that he was going in the direction of Guishou Mountain.

When seeing Xiao Mu, Xuan Mo couldn't help being stunned, his face was full of surprise and disbelief, "Xiao Mu, you...you're not dead?"

"Does Chief Xuan really want me to die?" Xiao Mu replied coldly.

Xuan Mo froze for a moment, and couldn't help but ask in the next moment, "You...you...killed the Immortal Evil Ancestor?"

"That's right, you don't need to go to Guishou Mountain anymore, I have already killed the Immortal Evil Ancestor." Xiao Mu replied to the other party, and left directly using escapism.

"Xiao Mu actually killed the Undead Evil Ancestor, is his strength already that strong?" Xuan Mo muttered to himself, looking lost, as if he couldn't figure out how Xiao Mu's strength could be raised to such a level , Even the existence of the undead evil ancestor who was in the early stage of the spiritual realm and possessed the treasure of the city god was killed.

After Xiao Mu returned to the Tang Dynasty ruins, the first thing he did was to go to Guzhi Mountain to meet the great leader Wu Jie.

"Is the big boss on the mountain?"

At the foot of Guzhi Mountain, Xiao Mu saw Zhao Qian.

This man in his early forties had cultivated a field of energy fruit trees at the foot of Guzhi Mountain, and was currently pruning the fruit trees.

"The chief is resting in the pavilion, you can go up directly." Zhao Qian smiled at Xiao Mu, and waved for Xiao Mu to go up by himself.

Xiao Mu used escapism to climb Guzhi Mountain and entered Wu Jie's small courtyard on the top of the mountain.

The environment on the top of the mountain was quiet, and in a small pavilion surrounded by flowing water on all sides, Wu Jie was resting on a bamboo recliner.

You are leisurely, but it is a pity that you will not be able to be idle soon.

Xiao Mu smiled, and cupped his hands at Wu Jie from a distance, "Xiao Mu pays homage to the chief."

"Xiao Mu, you're back."

Wu Jie opened his eyes and glanced at Xiao Mu sideways, but he did not leave the bamboo recliner and lay down leisurely, "Is the harvest good this time? Did you get any magic treasure?"

"good."

Xiao Mu nodded slightly, sat down on another bamboo chair opposite Wu Jie without seeing anyone, and said lightly, "I killed the immortal ancestor, and got the judge's pen and the book of life and death."

"You got the judge's pen and the book of life and death?"

Wu Jie was taken aback, and immediately got up from the bamboo recliner and sat up straight.

He was just asking casually, but Xiao Mu really got something out of it.

And this harvest is simply astonishing, no matter the book of life and death or the judge's pen, they are all treasures of the city god.

Chenghuang is a righteous god at the level of gods, and his treasures are top-notch among all treasures at the level of gods.

"Young and promising, you have surprised me every time! Xiao Mu, have you ever thought about giving the book of life and death and the judge's pen to the ruins? Don't worry, your benefits are indispensable. The ruins will exchange the resources you want with you .What do you want, energy fruit? Cheats? Or something else?"

Wu Jie admired, his eyes lit up, and his expression was excited.

The importance of the book of life and death and the judge's pen is too great. Even if he has stepped into the state of righteousness and has the karma of Lei Gong, he cannot ignore it.

"Sorry, chief, I plan to keep these two treasures for myself."

Xiao Mu declined Wu Jie politely, and had no intention of taking out the treasure of the City God and handing it over to the ruins.

He himself already possessed the status of City God, and he would be able to grasp the authority of these two divine treasures as soon as he entered the Divine Spirit Realm, so how could he possibly hand over the treasures to the Tang Dynasty ruins?

"What a pity!"

Wu Jie felt extremely regretful. After thinking about it, he couldn't help persuading him, "Xiao Mu, in fact, you are only in the Yin God Realm. Although the City God's Treasure is powerful, you still can't exert your true power for the time being. Why don't you consider borrowing it for a while?" For the ruins?"

Seeing the reluctance on Xiao Mu's face, Wu Jie immediately guessed what Xiao Mu was thinking, smiled and added: "Don't worry, with me here, the ruins will not swallow your treasure."

"Not only will it not swallow your treasures, but it will also give you corresponding compensation."

"Aren't you short of energy fruits? How about renting 10,000 energy fruits from the ruins temporarily from you? When you step into the realm of the gods, I will return them to you immediately."

"Let's just rent it."

Although Xiao Mu was not afraid that the treasures would not be taken back, he still did not want to lend them out, and directly refused: "Boss, I have already lent several treasures to the ruins, and I haven't taken them back yet."

"As for the City God's Treasure, I can't use it, and no one can use the ruins. As far as I know, there is no existence in our ruins that owns the City God."

Wu Jie opened his mouth, as if he wanted to continue persuading.

Seeing this, Xiao Mu immediately changed the subject, "Boss, I came to see you this time because I have important news to report."

"Oh! What's the news?" Wu Jie immediately sat upright when he heard it, and Xiao Mu's dignified expression infected him. Wu Jie realized that the matter must be serious, and for a moment he didn't even care about renting the city god's treasure.

Xiao Mu tidied up his speech and said, "Does the chief know about Immortal God?"

"You're talking about the founder of the Life and Death Sect?" Wu Jie frowned. He had been dealing with the Life and Death Sect for many years, and he had heard about the existence of Immortal God Venerable, a righteous god.

"That's right, it's him." Xiao Mu nodded.

Wu Jie was slightly surprised, "I heard that this person has been dead for twenty or thirty years, Xiao Mu, how could your news be related to him?"

Chief, your news is behind.

Xiao Mu cursed in his heart, but said in his mouth: "Boss, I went to the ruins of the ancient Song Dynasty this time and found the Immortal Evil Ancestor. I heard different news from the Immortal Evil Ancestor."

"According to the Immortal Evil Ancestor, the Immortal God Venerable didn't actually die, but by means of a fake death, the Burying God brought his flesh and blood into the human world, and planned to use his flesh and blood to be reborn in my world."

"Is there such a thing?"

Wu Jie frowned deeply, thought for a while, but wondered: "Isn't the Immortal Evil Patriarch a member of the Life and Death Sect? How could he betray the sect and reveal the news of the Immortal God to you?"

"Boss, Immortal Evil Ancestor is not a member of the Life and Death Sect. He is a spy sent by Emperor Xuanding to infiltrate the Life and Death Sect." Xiao Mu knew exactly what Wu Jie was suspicious of, so he quickly explained.

"Emperor Xuan Ding, why is Emperor Xuan Ding involved again? Xiao Mu, please explain in detail." Wu Jie was confused.

"Boss, it's like this..."

Xiao Mu recounted in detail the news he found during his trip to the ruins of the ancient Song Dynasty. As a result, the more Wu Jie listened, the more solemn his face became.

After Xiao Mu finished speaking, Wu Jie suddenly couldn't help but stood up from the bamboo chair with a solemn expression, "Xiao Xiao, if the information you got is true, the matter will be extremely serious."

"Even if the realm of the Immortal God falls, he is still a half-righteous god."

"Enemies of this level cannot be dealt with by our Tang ruins alone. I will report to the headquarters immediately and ask them to send someone to investigate."

"The leader is wise!" Xiao Mu stood up immediately, and cupped his hands at Wu Jie.

"You kid, don't flatter me. I don't think I can ignore the involvement of a strong righteous god." Wu Jie waved his hand and smiled, "Xiao Mu, you go back first, and I will notify you when the envoy from the headquarters arrives."

"By the way, the information of Mr. Baifu that you requested to check will arrive soon."

"I have already explained that when the materials arrive, you can go directly to the reference room to check."

"Thank you, Chief!" Xiao Mu once again bowed his hand to Wu Jie, and solemnly thanked him.

Information related to Lord Baifu is extremely important to Xiao Mu, and finding Lord Baifu is the top priority of his current task.

Next, Wu Jie contacted the headquarters, and Xiao Mu bid farewell to Wu Jie and left Guzhi Mountain.

As soon as he got off the mountain, Xiao Mu received another message.

This message came from Wang Gui from the mission team's advisory room. The content of the message was: New news, come quickly!

Xiao Mu thought for a while, then turned to the consultant room.

Wang Gui obviously understands Xiao Mu's situation, and because Xiao Mu's realm has improved too fast, and his realm has far surpassed him at this time, Wang Gui became a little restrained when facing Xiao Mu.

"Brother Xiao's level of improvement is astonishing, and he has made great contributions to the ruins continuously, which is really enviable!"

Wang Guichong cupped his hands to Xiao Mu, looking a little envious.

"Brother Wang is too famous."

Xiao Mu shook his head politely, and smiled, "I am envious of Brother Wang, who only needs to study the data every day, without the need for missions, and there is no risk."

"By the way, Brother Wang called me this time, what news do you have?"

Xiao Mu's words made Wang Gui relax a lot, so he said with a smile, "Brother Xiao, do you still remember this thing?"

While talking, Wang Gui took out a picture from a table next to him, and handed it to Xiao Mu for Xiao Mu to look at.

On the picture, there is a stone-milled spirit plate, with various ancient symbols engraved on the surface of the spirit plate, these ancient symbols together form a certain kind of peculiar texture, possessing some kind of magical power.

Xiao Mu took the picture and glanced at it, and immediately recognized the origin of the stone grinding disc on the painting, "Is this the millstone that Du Wenzhen and I brought back from a land mansion?"

Wang Gui nodded and said, "Brother Xiao has a really good memory, it's that millstone."

Although the stone grinding plate was brought back by Xiao Mu and Du Wenzhen, it was later assigned to the consultant room of the mission group for research, but was assigned to the consultant room of the second mission group.

"What's the reason why Brother Wang asked me to come?" Xiao Mu asked suspiciously while holding the picture, but in his heart he secretly guessed that the reason why Wang Gui asked him to come here must be related to the stone mill spirit plate.

Wang Gui explained: "Brother Xiao, the origin and purpose of this spirit disk has been researched by the consultant room of the second group."

The second group researched the origin of the spirit plate?

Xiao Mu heard a surprise, and asked concerned: "Brother Wang, do you know the origin of the spirit plate?"

Wang Gui shook his head and said apologetically, "The origin of the spirit plate seems to be a secret, and the second group kept it secret, so I don't know. If Brother Xiao wants to know, you might as well go to the second group and ask."

"Well, the reason why I called Brother Xiao was because I was worried that Brother Xiao didn't know that his treasure had been researched to find out its origin, so I would take the liberty to remind you."

"Thank you, Brother Wang, I will go to the second group of consultants to take a look."

Xiao Muchong bowed his hands to thank Wang Gui.

After Cui Yan's death, the second group had a new leader.

Now the new leader of the second team is Zhu Qingyu, who is at the peak of the Yin God Realm. He is relatively low-key and has no conflict of interest with the task team.

After leaving the consulting room of the first group, Xiao Mu went directly to the consulting room of the second group.

He only cared about what kind of treasure the stone grinding plate he brought back was, and he didn't care whether it fell into the hands of the first group or the second group.

After all, no matter whether the spirit plate falls into the hands of the first group or the second group, it belongs to the Tang Dynasty ruins.

With Xiao Mu's current status in the Tang Dynasty ruins, no matter whether it is a treasure of the first group or a treasure of the second group, he is eligible to borrow it for observation and use.

The consulting rooms of the second group and the first group of consulting rooms are in the same yard, and the distance between them is not very far, at most a few miles away.

Xiao Mu strolled over and arrived in a few minutes.

With the death of Cui Yan, the leader of the second group, the second group has shown signs of decline, and there are not many people in the consulting room.

When Xiao Mu arrived, he saw three young mutants playing a card game at the door of the consultant room of the second group.

"You... Are you Mr. Xiao?" Seeing Xiao Mu, a young man who was sitting facing Xiao Mu immediately dropped the card and stood up in fear.

"Mr. Xiao, ah! Hello, Mr. Xiao!"

"Mr. Xiao, hello! My name is Ye Su, it's an honor to meet you!"

The other two young men and women also stood up after hearing the words, showing expressions of fear and surprise but also admiration.

"good!"

Xiao Muchong nodded to the three of them, "Are you all from the second group of consultants?"

"Yes, Mr. Xiao, we are all from the consulting office." The young woman among the three replied with a smile at Xiao Mu.

"I heard that you have researched the origin of this item. I came here to take a look. Can you tell me what this item is?" Xiao Mu said while taking out the picture of the spirit disk that he got from Wang Gui. Let the young woman watch.

"Mr. Xiao, please show me your picture." The young woman took the picture excitedly, glanced at it and responded, "It turns out that what Mr. Xiao is asking about is this thing. This is a key."

"Key?" Xiao Mu wondered, is the Stone Mill Lingpan a key?

The young woman nodded, uneasy, "This key has been taken away by Elder Xu Yuan, and he also ordered the information to be blocked so that we cannot leak it."

"If Mr. Xiao wants to know more, you can ask Mr. Xu Qianwu and Xu Yuan. Due to regulations, we cannot tell Mr. Xiao the specific information."

"Okay, thank you!"

Xiao Mu thanked the young woman, took the picture from her hand and turned to leave.

"This is Mr. Xiao Muxiao, so strong!"

"It is said that this Mr. Xiao not only improves his realm quickly, but also has unique treasure-hunting abilities. Wu Yanwu's team leader's Underworld King's position and a full set of Underworld Lord's treasures were all brought back by Mr. Xiao."

As soon as Xiao Mu left, the three young mutants couldn't help whispering, with undisguised admiration in their tone.

Xiao Mu smiled and went to Xu Qianwu's office.
