Chapter 73: Be Sure to Perform Well
"Have you succeeded?"
"Yes."
"Are you sure that Chu Liang is dead?"
"certainly."
"Then why did he show up at Tongtian Peak this morning?" It was still in the dark cabinet, with a dark figure sitting in front of the case, and a masked man carrying a pair of swords standing in the hall.
Faced with Hei's questioning, the double-swordsman was stunned.
"What?"
"The Shushan disciple named Chu Liang not only returned to Shushan safely, but also retrieved the materials that can form elixirs without any injuries." There was anger in the black shadow's words,
"Who did you kill?" He plays a role similar to a general manager in the organization, and he is the one who contacts these people.
Originally, the Dual Swordsman said that Chu Liang had been killed, so he believed it and reported the news. But this morning, the spy in Shu Mountain suddenly said that Chu Liang had once again appeared at Tongtian Peak with his beard and tail intact.
The limbs are flexible, the facial features are correct, the body is healthy, and the mentality is good. Let alone being killed, there is no sound at all.
"How is it possible..." The double-sword guest said with suspicion,
"I cut him in half with a secret sword slashing technique, and he died without the ability to fight back... This can't be false."
"Have you identified the body?" Hei asked.
"I..." The double-swordsman hesitated for a moment, and then said:
"At that time, the Jinmaohong caught up quickly. I didn't have time to check it carefully, but Yigu had been cut in half in the third realm. How could he be resurrected...unless I wasn't the one who killed him at that time?"
"No matter what the reason is, he is still alive." The shadow said:
"But I have reported this matter to the boss before. If any news about Chu Liang comes out in the future, will the boss think that it was you and me who lied? You know his behavior style." The eyes of the double swordsman showed.
Showing a hint of fear, he immediately said:
"I'll kill him again!"
"That's what I mean too." Hei Yin said:
"The boss went to the Western Regions to deal with the matter. You'd better solve it before he comes back, otherwise I will definitely not bear the responsibility of not doing things well."
"Yes." The double-swordsman only responded. The black shadow picked up a brush from the front of the case, dipped in ink to draw a bird on the white paper, and then made a few strokes with his fingers.
The piece of paper suddenly burned. When the fire burned away, there was no trace of ashes, only a lifelike black crow appeared, hovered and landed on the shoulders of the two swordsmen.
"He should be going to Xianren Ze to look for the Immortal Grass now. Just follow the magic crow to find the specific location," said the black shadow.
This crow does not have as powerful an ability as Qianli Xunren. It is just an extension of his tongue. And he will use the method of seeing from the sky and hearing from the earth to monitor the location of the target, and pass it to the actor through the magic crow.
"Xianrenze..." The double-swordsman muttered, his low tone full of cruelty:
"If I don't kill him this time, I will come back with my head in my hand."
"It's so big." The three Shen Yijing disciples all sighed in their hearts when they flew to Xianren Ze. It is said that in ancient times, Xianren Ze was a vast and boundless lake with many islands in it, making it the largest lake in the world.
Later, during the vicissitudes of life, the water level gradually decreased, land was exposed in many places in the lake, and those islands became mountain peaks.
Now it looks like hundreds of connected lakes, large and small, stretching over an area of hundreds of miles.
If Ascension Grass appears, it will grow on the banks of these lakes. Practitioners who come to find Ascension Grass should carefully walk along the lakes to look for possible places.
If you scan it roughly with your spiritual consciousness in the air, you will probably miss something. And it may also attract water from the lake.
"Ghost". Among ghosts, there is a special kind of existence.
"Zombies", as generally understood, are ghosts that have lost their bodies and become filled with resentment. Zombies, on the contrary, arise from bodies that have lost their souls and arise with a breath of resentment.
The more mysterious existence among zombies is called
"Yue". Generally speaking, only the corpse of a practitioner contains spirituality. After the corpse is lifted up and becomes stronger, it will become Yue.
The Yue in Xianren Ze was once overrun with disasters. The weakest Iron Yue here also has the strength of the third level. After absorbing the blood of living people, it can gradually evolve into iron, copper, silver and gold.
The strongest Jin Yue has the strength of the sixth realm, but it is extremely rare, so Shushan usually sends a fifth realm disciple to protect the law.
Above Jin Yue, there may be someone equivalent to the seventh level powerful one.
"Disasters". Among them are droughts where corpses are lying on the ground for thousands of miles, floods where everywhere they go becomes Zeguo, and snowyue where the sky is freezing in June... This type of disaster occurs almost every thousand years.
But every time you leave Immortal Lake, a large amount of life will be harvested, which is extremely difficult to deal with.
It is even said that after the disaster demon harvests enough creatures, it can grow into Xianyue and Shenyue equivalent to the eighth and ninth realms. However, charms of that level have never appeared in history, and are just a legend.
More than two hundred years ago, after the Yu Dynasty suffered a disaster, it made up its mind to unite the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths and decided to clean up the increasingly overflowing disasters in Xianren Ze.
But after a series of killings, the effect was average. Because the lakes are interconnected underwater as they can escape into the water, unless the entire Immortal Lake is covered with great magic power, it cannot be completely cleaned.
And if Yue is transformed from the corpse of a cultivator, if people never enter the Immortal Lake again, the occurrence of Yue can be prevented from the source.
But this is extremely difficult. Because this place is rich in spiritual energy, there are many heavenly materials and earthly treasures worthy of adventurers to venture into. Spiritual plants such as Immortal Grass can even grow only in this place.
It is impossible to completely blockade such a large fairyland, so we can only let it go.
"The three of you spread out slightly, advance from west to east, and don't go too fast. The golden-winged eagle will be vigilant in the air, and once a bird appears, it will immediately warn. If there is a bird that cannot be dealt with, try to protect yourself and delay it.
I will arrive immediately." After landing, Xu Ziyang said.
"Although the chance is very slim, if we do encounter the Immortal Grass, whoever gets it first will belong to whoever gets it first, and there can be no more fighting." When walking in dangerous places, it is naturally the safest way to stick together.
But after all, everyone was here to find the Immortal Grass, so if they saw the treasure at the same time, there would inevitably be a fight over it, so they were allowed to spread out a little.
These are the lessons learned by Shushan over the years. Senior Sister Chen Suli was the first to say with a smile:
"I'll just follow Senior Brother Xu Chang. It will feel safer this way." Chu Liang had already noticed along the way that she was Xu Ziyang's little crush. She might have come here just to get close to Senior Brother Xu Chang.
, and don’t care much about celestial grass.
In fact, the same is true for Shang Ziliang. He also intends to have a good exchange of feelings with Xu Ziyang this time. If he can get the approval of his uncle, won't things between him and Xu Ziqing be settled?
But who would have expected that he would meet Chu Liang as soon as he arrived. Referring to himself and others, Shang Ziliang felt that Chu Liang had the same idea as him, and he must have come here just to show off in front of Xu Ziyang.
Thinking of this, all the old and new grudges surged up. In front of Xu Ziyang, he didn't dare to think twice about plotting against Chu Liang... not to mention that he had suffered so many losses before.
But the competitive spirit is still indispensable. Immediately, the flames of war burned in his eyes, and he secretly said in his heart that he must perform better than this guy.
Let the future uncle see how good he is! Then...
"Are you leaving yet?" Xu Ziyang turned around and said coldly. It turned out that Chu Liang had already led the way alone, and Chen Su had followed Xu Ziyang several dozen feet away. Only Shang Ziliang remained in the same place, giggling in a daze.
I know what nasty things I'm thinking about.
"You must always be vigilant in Xianren Ze, otherwise you may be in danger of death!" Xu Ziyang warned again.
"Hey, yes, yes!" Shang Ziliang immediately came to his senses when he heard Xu Ziyang's words, trotted to follow him, and nodded repeatedly.
