Chapter 0439 Subdued
Ban Ming, no matter what these people thought, just continued: "Of course, although that's the case, in fact, I will not interfere with the operation of the ghost city. What did you do before and what you are now. However, if one day I hope you can do your best, then I hope you can cooperate fully and not do the trick of lip service."
"Please forgive me for taking the liberty." The burly and domineering man stared at Ban Ming and said without blinking: "From what you said just now, I only saw the city lord's request for the ghost city, but did not see any contribution. Even if you are the city lord, I want to ask you on behalf of all the people in the ghost city, why should we kill the enemy for you? Why do we have to give you the future of our lives?"
"Ba Xuan, you are so brave! You dare to question the city lord?" Ming Xi immediately shouted with an ugly look.
"It's okay." Ban Ming looked at the man named Ba Xuan and said lightly: "The deputy city lord can hand over his city lord order to you, which shows that he has recognized your ability and prestige. But I want to ask you, do you know why the deputy city lord built a ghost city?"
As soon as he asked, all the senior executives of the ghost town, including Ba Xuan, were stunned.
Seeing that everyone was not talking, Ban Ming said lightly: "The ghost city was established during the most chaotic and dark period a hundred years ago. However, at that time, the ghost city established did not come forward to relieve the dangers of the demon clan, nor did it embark on the road of fighting for dominance in the world. Instead, it lived in this star field, cultivated and revived, and developed silently. Until today, it is already a strong man. Even with so many powerful people in the realm of destruction, he always chose to be low-key and silent... Haven't you ever thought about why this is?"
"Of course we thought about it!" Yao Qianniu suddenly spoke and said in a deep voice: "But the city lord must have the city lord's consideration. As a subordinate, we only need to obey his orders."
Ban Ming's eyes were very cold. Looking at Yao Qianniu's vertical pupils, it seemed that he could see through everything: "Now, even if you look at the entire universe, you are the top strong people. I don't believe that you have no ambitions in your heart, and you don't have the ambition to go out to break out into the world. The world is so big, as dragons, you are trapped in such a small pond... You should have a lot of dissatisfaction with the deputy city lord, right?"
This sentence is too straightforward, as if it was to uncover the deepest scab in the heart, making the many powerful people present with discomfort expressions.
In fact, as Ban Ming said, as strong people, how could they have no ambitions in their hearts? It’s not that they want to go out independently to explore the world, but because they don’t understand why the ghost town has such strong strength, but always wants to live in a corner?
It is true that this is a Feng Shui treasure land, but why can't we use this treasure land as the foundation and expand outward, have more resources and greater reputation?
Seeing this scene, Ban Ming couldn't help but shake his head and said lightly: "You really don't understand the deputy city lord's painstaking efforts."
"I would like to ask the city lord for advice. Why did the deputy city lord make the ghost city so low-key?" Yue Qiyun, who was light-hearted, couldn't help but ask at this time.
Ban Ming smiled softly when he heard this and said, "Of course, it's because the ghost town has more important things to do. The reason why it is silent is just because the time has not come."
This sentence was like a loud bell ringing, giving everyone present a sense of enlightenment.
The answer to the question that has been puzzled for a long time is so simple and crude!
This answer is actually not that difficult to guess, but none of the people present has ever thought about it.
However, the problem that follows is...
"What is the so-called more important thing?" Ning Buzhou asked with a frown.
"That's what I need you to do in the near future. But the details are not yet available for you to know." Ban Ming said slowly, looking at Ba Xuan, and said, "As for what I can do for the ghost city... I can also pay what the deputy city lord can give in the past. Moreover, there are some things you will never understand, and you don't need to understand."
The last sentence was so mysterious that no one present could understand it, but everyone savored something from Ban Ming's slightly bleak tone.
This made them start to think about a question, that is, where has this city lord been doing and what has he done in the past century?
The deputy city lord is already mysterious enough, as if he suddenly rose up overnight a hundred years ago, and the main city lord seems to be even better in this regard.
In fact, they would never understand that if he hadn't stopped Qian Changsheng's conspiracy a hundred years ago, they might not have had the chance to sit here, and even the world was not the world they knew.
And Ban Ming didn't need anyone to understand, because he didn't wait for that person to thank and miss him at the beginning of his work.
He just does something he will do.
"Let's talk about this first."
Ban Ming looked at Ba Xuan, and a trace of light suddenly flowed in his eyes.
In this moment, Ba Xuan was creepy and felt that everything about him seemed to be invisible under this gaze.
Ban Ming said lightly: "If you continue to let go of the injuries in your body and do not deal with them, the consequences will be very dangerous."
Then he bounced his fingers and a flash of light shot towards Ba Xuan's eyebrows.
Ba Xuan subconsciously wanted to dodge, but in the end he gritted his teeth and let the light fall into his eyebrows.
A flash of light exploded, and an invisible meaning entered Ba Xuan's body, and then it took effect!
Ba Xuan's body suddenly shook, and a raging vitality boiled like wildfire in his body, penetrated his limbs and bones, even the spiritual world, and the depths of his soul!
After a few breaths, all the injuries in his body that were forced to suppress with his cultivation were healed!
At this moment, Ba Xuan had a red face, but the domineering power on his body completely disappeared. He stared at Ban Ming with a ghostly look, and even his speech became a little stuttering: "You, how did you do it? Also, how did you find that I was injured?"
"What! Ba Xuan, are you really injured?" Yao Qianniu said in shock: "I didn't see when the incident happened at all!"
Yue Qiyun also stared at Ba Xuan with beautiful eyes, obviously not knowing it at all."
Facing Ba Xuan's gaze, Ban Ming said lightly: "From your appearance, I have noticed your abnormality. You are domineering and even when you walk out of the space channel, you are extremely imposing and shocking the exit of the space channel into pieces and turns into a storm. It does look very shocking. However, if you maintain this state at all times, it seems a bit weird. It only means that you are circulating your cultivation anytime and anywhere, like a string that is always tight, and can only be tighter and unable to relax... As his colleagues, have you not noticed this?" The last sentence was said to Yue Qiyun, Yao Qianni and others.
Yue Qiyun stared at Ba Xuan and said, "Since Ba Xuan took over as the city lord, he seemed to be like this. I thought he was trying to establish his authority in the ghost city..."
"I think so too..." Yao Qiannun said.
Ban Ming continued, "As for how I did it, it's related to my martial arts, I can't tell you... However, if you dodged the light just now, I wouldn't have taken action again. You just asked me what I could do for the ghost town, and this is one of the things I can do."
Ba Xuan recovered from the shock, and looked at Ban Ming's gaze full of complexity. At the same time, he felt a little grateful and... respect!
You know, he was actually targeting Ban Ming just now. To be serious, he was provoking the authority of the city lord. As a result, Ban Ming not only did not hold a grudge, but instead healed his injuries. Such a mind, unfathomable cultivation, and that meticulous insight all made Ba Xuan reverse the impression of Ban Ming and convinced him.
At the same time, Ba Xuan felt a little scared.
He had no doubt at all that if he had chosen to avoid the light just now, Wuming would really not care about his life and death.
The choice of life or death is only in one thought.
Seeing that Yue Qiyun and others were looking at him, Ba Xuan smiled bitterly and said, "It's because of the Dark Moon Abyss. During a small eruption a few years ago, I was accidentally hit by a large ball of dark blood. If I couldn't be driven out, I could only suppress it with my cultivation..."
"Dark blood!" Yue Qiyun and others changed their colors and showed a terrifying look.
It seems that this dark blood is something that even the powerful people in the Destruction Realm are afraid of.
Suddenly, Yue Qiyun found that Ning Buzhou and other three law enforcement elders were very calm. He couldn't help but move his eyebrows and said, "The three law enforcement elders have known about it early in the morning?"
"Yes." Ming Xi nodded slightly, and smiled bitterly, saying, "You all know that the dark blood is powerful. Once it is contaminated, it will be extremely difficult to get rid of it. What's more, the dark blood that hit Ba Xuan's body was the size of a fist, and it was impossible to expel it at all. This is why Ba Xuan's cultivation is so advanced that he can suppress it. But even so, it's only a matter of time before the dark blood attack occurs... After all, you all know that the more dark blood is suppressed with cultivation, the stronger it will become."
As he said that, he looked at Ban Ming strangely and said, "Before today, I never dreamed that someone could completely resolve the Dark Blood wound."
Yue Qiyun asked nervously: "Ba Xuan, has the dark blood in your body really been completely resolved?"
Ba Xuan sensed it again and nodded with confidence.
For a moment, even Xu Bo looked at Ban Ming differently.
Ban Ming said at this time: "Can anyone explain to me what dark blood is?"
Everyone's expressions were suddenly strange, and Ban Ming's eyes were so strange.
After a long time of trouble, this guy didn't know the root cause of Ba Xuan's injury. A flash of light popped up could even heal him. This is really... I don't know what to say.
In the end, Ba Xuan explained it personally.
It turns out that the so-called dark blood is a rare substance unique to the "Dark Moon Abyss", one of the five major evil realms in this starry sky. This substance is an extremely viscous dark black liquid that looks like oil, exudes a faint smell of blood, so it is called dark blood.
This substance generally does not appear, and will only erupt at an extremely high speed when the Dark Moon Abyss erupts.
The gushing dark blood will immediately merge into it no matter what object it touches, and then infect it instantly, turning it into a part of the dark blood, even if the other party is a giant star.
A huge star will turn into a small drop of dark blood within a few breaths.
What's bizarre is that if you ignore such a terrifying dark blood and let it float in the void for a period of time, it will naturally evaporate without a trace.
No one knows the source and composition of dark blood, but even if a strong man in the Dao Realm is contaminated with such things, it is still irresistible and will soon be transformed into dark blood.
Only warriors above the third level of the Taoist realm can have certain resistance, but they must also drive the dark blood out of their bodies in the shortest time. Otherwise, the dark blood will be like a maggot in the tarsal bone and cannot be expelled no matter what. Even if it is temporarily suppressed by cultivation, as time goes by, the flesh and blood will gradually erode, and the body will eventually turn into a drop of dark blood.
Ba Xuan used his body to resist a piece of dark blood the size of a fist in order to save a young junior.
Such a large amount of dark blood is extremely rare. If it were ordinary people, they would definitely be completely dissolved in a blink of an eye. However, with his strong cultivation, Ba Xuan has been able to support it until now.
However, if it goes on for a long time, he may not be able to hold on in another year or two and turn into a part of the dark blood.
Yue Qiyun added: "The Eternal Night Clan seems to be very interested in this kind of thing. In the past few decades, the Eternal Night Clan has often sneaked into this star field to obtain dark blood."
"Dark blood..." Ban Ming murmured in his heart, then shook his head secretly.
This world is always full of wonders. Even if it is him, it is impossible to get a glimpse of the whole picture. For this dark blood, he could not figure out what it was before he saw the real thing.
However, it is obvious that although this kind of thing has great lethality, it still has no resistance in front of the founding intention - yes, what he had just penetrated into Ba Xuan's body was exactly the founding intention.
It is estimated that only the founding meaning in this world can easily resolve this extremely difficult dark blood.
"Okay, it's time for me to leave. Next, the ghost town has its own way of operating. If there is anything, please contact me." Ban Ming said, pinched a piece of the corner of the table with his own hands, and then under the eyes of everyone, the metal turned into liquid form, and in a blink of an eye, it turned into a small oval cake-shaped object.
And on the front and back of this cake-shaped metal, there are natural formation patterns.
