Wonderland

Chapter 1198

In the center of the Dark Marsh Mountain Range, there is a mountain range that spans tens of thousands of miles. The range of millions of miles surrounding this mountain range is in a state of prosperity.

The main peak, Lingze Peak, is [-] feet high, covering a radius of hundreds of miles, and around it, there are five side peaks, all of which are more than [-] feet high.

The scenery here is beautiful, the ravines are steep, and there are many rare elixir growing in it, because with Lingze Peak as the center, deep in the ground, lies a first-order fairy spirit vein, which extends thousands of miles away.

It is precisely because of this fairy vein that the wonderful scene of bell spirits within tens of thousands of miles around Lingze Peak has been created.

It stands to reason that this kind of spiritual realm will inevitably be occupied by some large sects, but this is the place under the jurisdiction of the spirit clan. Attributes.

There are usually many conflicts between the nine ethnic groups, and occasional friction is not uncommon, but facing the foreign races, the nine ethnic groups are still very united, and the Nine Spirits Hall is set up among the spirit clans, and the Nine Spirits Hall is exactly Located in the holy city of Jiuling, it is the power center of Jiuling clan.

The monks of the Mahayana realm and the tribulation realm of the nine ethnic groups are basically the great elders of the inner hall of the Jiuling Temple.

This first-order fairy vein in the Anze Mountains is directly affiliated to the Nine Spirits Palace, and it is where a fairy mine vein under the jurisdiction of the Nine Spirits Palace is located. Under the six peaks including Lingze Peak, there are countless In the pitch-black mine, many miners of foreign races were coming in and out, transporting the spirit stones dug out from the spirit veins, and handing them over to the stewards of the Jiuling Temple here.

For this reason, the Lingzu built a large hall at the foot of the Lingze Peak, named Lingze Palace, and the owner of the Lingze Palace was personally appointed by the Jiuling Palace, and his realm was at least above the high level of the Fusion Realm. , in special times, even the mighty monks who cross the tribulation realm will be sent to guard it.

The three of Xiao Lin passed through several side peaks, and soon arrived in front of Lingze Palace.

This is also their first stop in the Dark Marsh Mountains, where they need to exchange tokens and receive specific tasks from Lingze Palace.

On both sides of the entrance of Lingze Palace, there stood a monk of the Spirit Race. One had dark red skin, and the other had greenish blue skin.

Xiao Lin glanced at the two of them, and sensed that both of them were in the stage of the early stage of transformation, which surprised Xiao Lin. The dignified monks of the stage of transformation were actually guarding the gate here.

Moreover, Xiao Lin was aware that there might be a lot of high-ranking monks hidden in this Lingze Palace. Just before the three of them arrived at the gate of the palace, he sensed more than a dozen strands of divine consciousness sweeping over him, and these The spiritual scan did not cover up anything, with a strong sense of provocation.

Although the three of Xiao Lin were sullen in their hearts, they did not show it. Compared to the Spirit Clan, the Human Clan is just a third-rate clan and has no status here at all.

The three of them glanced at each other before walking towards the palace gate.

Entering Lingze Palace, after passing through the long passage in the hall, the three of them came to the main hall. There was a golden chair in the middle of the hall, which was resplendent and resplendent, but there was no one on it.

On the left side of the main hall, there is a table, and inside the table is an old man in his fifties with a sallow complexion.

The old man raised his triangular eyes, glanced at the three of them, and then said lightly, "You are human monks sent by the Tianmu clan."

"Yes." The three answered almost in unison.

"Come here and get the task." The old man waved to the three of them.

When the three of them came to the table, he continued: "My name is Tubo, and I am from the Tuling tribe. He is in charge of issuing your missions. Is this mission easier or more difficult? The task can be said to be close to death, but for the three of you, it shouldn't be a problem.

The old man suddenly opened his mouth, revealing a mouth full of yellow teeth.

When Xiao Lin heard this, his heart moved, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his hand, and a bag appeared.

"My cultivation base is superficial, and I hope Tubo can assign us an easier task."

Xiao Lin casually put the bag on the table and said to the old man with a smile.

Hearing this, the old man couldn't help but glanced at Xiao Lin approvingly, then picked up the cloth bag, weighed it lightly, and took a sneak peek inside, then showed a satisfied expression.

"Boy, you're on the right track, anyway, there is a task to guard the Qingze Peak Mine, you are responsible for protecting the surroundings of the mine, mainly to prevent the spirit stones dug out of the Qingze Peak Mine from being attacked and stolen by the spies of the Bone Race Go, of course, you can also take the initiative to clean up the Bone Race spies around you regularly, and you can rest for ten years if you are on duty for ten years. Some tasks with a higher risk factor."

As the old man spoke, he stretched out his palm and beckoned at the three of them.

The three immediately understood, took out tokens one after another, and handed them to the old man.

The old man took the tokens from the three of them, cast a secret technique, and engraved the task into the token, and the token immediately changed color.

After finishing, the old man threw the token to the three of them.

"The task details have been recorded in the token, and you can use the token to enter and exit the mine. At the same time, you can also open caves around Qingze Peak for cultivation, but you have to keep in mind that for the mine dug out Spiritual stones must not be guarded and stolen, otherwise, once discovered, they will be killed on the spot, and both body and spirit will be destroyed."

After finishing speaking, before the three of Xiao Lin could ask, the old man waved to the three of them, indicating that they could leave.

After the three of them left the main hall, they distinguished their directions, and then turned into three rainbows and fled away.

Inside the main hall, the old man opened the cloth bag and looked at the hundreds of middle-grade spirit stones inside, with a smile on his lips.

"Good boy, you really know the times and have a future." After speaking, he put away the spirit stone with a smile, and then lay down on the table, showing a drowsy appearance.

Qingze Mountain is one of the five side peaks of Lingze Mountain. It is located thousands of miles south of Lingze Peak, covering an area of ​​hundreds of miles.

Around Qingze Mountain, surrounded by mountains, and among the mountains, dozens of bright blue orbs are dotted, forming a piece of lakes, the big ones are tens of miles long, and the small ones are several acres in size .

To the south of Qingze Mountain, there is a field with piles of soil rising and falling one after another. On both sides of the field, near the lake, there are sparsely built rows of houses.

Especially on a hillside on the right side, a small village and town was actually formed, and people could vaguely see people coming and going inside.

The three of Xiao Lin flew to the southern slope of Qingze Mountain, pressed the escape light, and fell towards the bottom.

The three of them fell to the ground and saw that there were at least hundreds of mines densely packed on the side of Qingze Mountain. From these mines, tired figures walked out from time to time. They carried bamboo baskets on their backs, which were full of of soil and gravel.

At the same time, quite a few miners walked out of the mine and headed towards the attic next to it. The attic had two sides, not too big or too small. There was a huge spiritual pressure faintly emanating from the second floor, obviously there were immortal cultivators stationed there.

When the three of Xiao Lin fell down, there was a huge burst of divine sense shooting towards them.

Before the three of them spoke, they heard a voice from the attic: "The three of you are mine guards? In Xiaqing Peak, they are members of the Muling tribe. Please go upstairs and talk about the three of them."

There was a hint of domineering in this person's words. Xiao Lin and others had judged that this person's realm was in the late stage of transformation when this person had just searched for him with his spiritual sense. If it was normal, they would naturally not False words, but the situation is different now. Although the wood spirit clansman named Qingfeng is not higher than the three of them in terms of realm, his status is much higher than that of the human race.

With a bit of arrogance, it seems to be reasonable.

After the three of them glanced at each other, they shot towards the attic and walked into the attic. The three of them saw on the first floor of the attic that there were more than a dozen people from the spirit race who were collecting the spirit stones and various kinds of spirit stones dug by the miners. associated ore.

Most of these miners are short Tu people. They are short in stature, but their limbs are strong and powerful. They carry a bamboo basket much larger than themselves, and they look extremely relaxed.

After a little observation, Xiao Lin found that most of these dwarfs had practiced some superficial body training formulas, and their combat strength was probably only equivalent to the realm of the foundation-building period of the human race.

The three of Xiao Lin did not stay on the first floor, but went directly up the stairs to the second floor.

In the lobby on the second floor, there was a person sitting upright. This person had light blue skin and was short in stature, but he exuded a fierce pressure all over his body.

Seeing the three of them, he couldn't help showing a smile on his face: "Sit down, please."

The three of Xiao Lin were not polite, they found a chair and sat down.

"In Xiaguyin, these two are Daoist Xiao Lin and Fairy Zhu Danyu. I have accepted the mission to guard the Qingze Mountain mine. You think Fellow Daoist Qingfeng is the person in charge of the Qingze mine?"

Hearing this, Qingfeng waved his hand and said with a smile: "Qingfeng is just an unknown junior, how can he become the person in charge of this Qingze mine vein? The person in charge is senior Qinghua, who is also Qingfeng's master uncle. It's just a steward."

"It turns out that it's the management of the youth, please be polite. Since I have the duty of guarding, I won't bother you here. I should go to patrol around Qingze Peak to prevent the Bone Race monks from infiltrating."

"Don't be in a hurry." Qingfeng waved his hand.

"Is there any order for the youth management?" Gu Yin was slightly taken aback, and asked.

"Oh, it's actually not a big deal. It's like this. A few days ago, near Heize Lake to the east of Lingze Mountain, the Bone Clan appeared. The Bone Clan is very mysterious among the Bone Clan. Once the Boneburied Race appears, based on our Spirit Race and their many years of experience in fighting, there must be a huge conspiracy hidden. It's just that Qing has been searching for a long time, but he has not found out where their conspiracy lies. If the three of you can find out The reason is nothing more than a piece of credit?"

"The task of the three of us is to protect the mine veins of Lingze Mountain. The conspiracy of the Bone Clan seems to have nothing to do with our mission. Besides, if we go to investigate the Bone Clan, if the Bone Clan takes the opportunity to attack the mine veins of Lingze Mountain, when the time comes Don't you care about one and lose the other?" Gu Yin said after pondering for a moment.

"Hehe, Qing naturally knows the missions of the three of you, but since the Bonebuying Clan appeared near Lingze Mountain, their conspiracy is aimed at us. If we can't find out their purpose, aren't we just passively defending? It is easy for them to succeed."

When the three of Gu Yin heard the words, they all fell silent, what Qingfeng said was not without reason.

Moreover, before Xiao Lin and others came to Hongshan City, they had learned about the Bone Clan from many sources. There are many branches of the Bone Clan, even more complicated than the Spirit Clan. In fact, it is a branch of the Bone Clan, and this Buried Bone Clan is also a branch of the Bone Clan.

The Bone Clan is good at the technique of earth escape in the Five Elements Spirit Shield. The earth escape is their innate supernatural power. Walking underground is like a fish in water. Not only that, when the Bone Clan uses the earth escape technique to hide underground, unless it is The realm is above their big realm, otherwise it is impossible to find their traces.

Even if the realm is a big realm higher than theirs, they can only be found within a hundred feet through the power of divine consciousness.

The Spirit Clan is a race that is good at spells, but even the Earth Spirit Clan in the Spirit Clan, although they are more talented than the Bone Clan in most of the earth spells, but they are far behind in this earth escape technique. Far worse.

Qingfeng belongs to the Wood Spirit Clan among the Spirit Clan, Mu Ketu, but even he showed helplessness towards the Bone Clan, which shows how difficult this matter is.

"In this way, as long as the three can find out the conspiracy of the Bone Clan and destroy it, Qingfeng is willing to report to the elders of the clan and record one of the three immortal skills. You must know that this immortal skill is the highest merit that you can obtain. Each of the three can increase the credit value by [-], and the head of a Bone Race monk of the same level is worth [-] credits, this task can save the three of them from beheading three monks of the same level."

"[-] credits?" Hearing this reward, all three of Xiao Lin began to hesitate.

This temptation is indeed not small. After all, they are passively waiting here, and they don't know when they will be able to accumulate enough credit points. If they fail, a war between the two clans will really break out. Will be cannon fodder in the war.

At the same time, they also had some hesitation in their hearts. Qingfeng gave them the feeling that he was not reliable and honest, and they didn't know the strength of the Bone Clan that appeared around them. With a little strength, it is almost the same as sending to death.

"Don't worry, you three. Although Qing is not very sure, he is at least six or seven percent sure. This time, there will never be a cultivator of the Void Refining Realm from the Buried Bones Clan, because there are thousands of miles around Lingze Peak. Inside, everyone is under the shroud of my wood spirit clan's wood spirit fairy light. Whenever a Bone Race cultivator above the Void Refining Realm appears, it will cause changes in the Wood Demon. , beheaded him personally."

"Within ten thousand miles? Qing Guanshi just said that the traces of the bone-buried people were found near Heize Lake, and as far as Xiao knew, Heize Lake is tens of thousands of miles south of Lingze Mountain, which seems to have exceeded Qing The range of the wood spirit and fairy light that the steward said has been covered."

"Ha ha." Hearing this, the Youth Manager smiled awkwardly, and then said, "You don't need to worry, Fellow Daoist Xiao, Lingze Mountain is not the main target of the Bone Race, and the chances of Void Refining Realm cultivators coming are not high. Of course, if the three of you are worried about yourself If the safety is at stake, you can also refuse to accept this task, but Qing will also report to the elders' house, using the reason of non-cooperation, to double the credit value required for the three to obtain freedom."

What the youth management said made the faces of the three of them turn ugly.
