Ascension

Bana became a senior member of the church.

Coincidentally, the Pioneer Blessing she randomly obtained was Ekifla's "Charm Enhancement" and "Mental Resistance".

Seeing her visibly radiant complexion, Xiaoguagua was extremely happy.

Ever since Big Tadpole was promoted to sainthood and the upper limit level of his followers was synchronized to the 9th level, he has not yet subdued any saint-level followers.

Bana was the first.

She also possesses the inheritance of the compassionate ancestor. Both her identity and status are not something that ordinary minions can look down upon.

With her leading the way, there will definitely be more heroes and heroes under the command of Big Tadpole in the future, gathering together to create immortal achievements.

"Great! The bond of destiny has been extended!"

"Big tadpole, let's leave the Land of Laziness. There's nothing here. It's too boring!"

"Oh, don't forget Little Sun, Little Liesheng, Little Golden Crow, and Little Shili!"

"After being separated for more than a hundred years, they must be worried. We must let them know that everything is fine!"

Ye Hanjun followed his heart and nodded gently.

The transmission was too sudden. Even if Lie Xinxin and the others could remain calm at first, they would probably become anxious as time went by.

I don’t know how they have been doing over the years.

After all, Lie Xinxin is the most holy and perfect Sister Lieyang. With her leading the team, she should be able to protect the other companions, right?
"laugh."

As his thoughts turned, Ye Hanjun rode on the Storm Fox transformed by Gua Gua and flew to the border of the Land of Laziness.

Along the way, he took a quick look at the country's topography and customs.

The only thing that can be felt is that the number of residents is not proportional to the size of the city.

Another thing is that most of the creatures here are half a year old.

They have long lost the vitality of their youth. They just bask in the sun and eat carrion every day, living one day at a time. Their lives are counting down, and there is no fun at all.

Day 12.

Ye Hanjun left the border smoothly, and no blind evil beast tried to stop him.

The land beyond his sight was a plain covered with lush grass.

There is a group of "wild dog demons" with horns on their heads who occupy this place and wantonly kill the low-level creatures passing by.

"Bang!!"

Ye Hanjun found their king, a "wild dog insect demon" that had evolved into a holy form. It had three eyes on its head, insect wings on its back, and a dog's body covered with an insect shell. It looked really weird.

Its strength is not weak, it is a minor saint. No wonder it can be so powerful in an area.

Ye Hanjun basically did not take any action. He just used the help of his dogs and grandchildren to follow the clues to find its cave, blocked it inside, and then released the Dharma World.

“Woof! Woof woof woof!!”

"Woof! Woof woof! Woo woo woo ..."

The wild dog insect demon is intelligent and was intimidated by the pressure of blood, so it surrendered to all the attacks it was supposed to take.

For example, what kind of monsters are there in the surrounding area, and how much does it know about humans and the descendants of the Seven Sins.

By comparing the intelligence, Ye Hanjun quickly grasped the location.

On the map hand-drawn by Jiezhi, the current location belongs to the damaged half. If there are only Ye Hanjun and Ye Liuying, they will be like headless flies and can only waste time wandering around.

But with justice, things are different.

She also had the map, a complete map with nothing missing.

The above records in detail the distribution of humans in the Desire Realm at the beginning of the Second Era of the Cenozoic Universe.

Even though nearly two thousand years have passed and many places no longer exist, they still have reference value.

"Let's go here."

Bana pointed at a corner of the map, her eyes firm:
"The defense system of this place ranks among the top ten habitats of the human race in the Desire Realm."

"There are at least 100,000 people who have settled there, received a good education and been tempered by war."

"Whether it's obtaining the latest intelligence or spreading faith, it's the best choice in the category, bar none."

Ye Hanjun stared at the direction of her finger, where a star was drawn with a golden marker.

He agreed immediately without much hesitation.

"Shhhh! Shhhhh!"

After a good night’s sleep, the team members’ energy is basically so high that they need to vent.

Guagua rushed to be the mount, flying in the air and hiding underground, using the magic skills of wind and earth elements with great skill.

Unfortunately, I didn’t encounter any enemies of high enough level along the way, such as Goose Immortal and Huazhu, so I had no way to fight with them and could only compete with my own partners.

By chance, the three of them rescued a bug-type spirit who had reached the level of a minor saint, the "Silver Bell Insect Saint".

The holy insect was trapped at the bottom of a quagmire and almost suffocated to death.

Just because a demon commander died here and his corpse turned into the aura of the demon swamp that shrouds the place all year round, a forbidden place that cannot be entered gradually took shape.

"Thank you, Your Highnesses! I will never forget your kindness!"

"Eh! Your attributes are quite pure. Do you know the way of rhythm?"

The little Guagua beast was very smart. He lay on the armor of the Silver Bell Bug Saint, pulled its tentacles and asked.

"Yes……"

Silver Bell Worm Saint did not dare to move, trembling and said:

"Fifty years ago, I accidentally entered the Demonic Swamp. Although I ate the remains of the Demon Commander, I was able to advance to Minor Success."

"But with the power of a little bug, I still can't escape the curse of this area. If you don't lend a helping hand, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for another three to five hundred years."

"Yeah, yeah, so we are your benefactors, right?"

"Why don't you pledge yourself to me? Little Bana hasn't found a suitable contracted spirit yet, and you seem like a good choice."

Guagua either doesn’t speak, or when he does, his words are earth-shattering.

"Huh? You want the little bug to sign a contract with humans?"

The Silver Bell Insect Saint's compound eyes popped out of their sockets in fright.

"What's the matter, isn't little Bana good enough for you?"

"She is Justice among the Seven Virtues, and she will have a chance to become an Emperor in the future."

"If you follow her, you will have a life of luxury and comfort."

Gua Gua shook his head and tried to seduce.

"Cuckoo..."

Silver Bell Bug Saint became even more frightened, and a string of white foam came out of his mouth. He was so weak that he was about to faint:
"Seven, seven virtues? The seven virtues that fight against the seven evil lords?"

"I think this human force can't even protect itself. If we stay with you, we might be purged by the Seven Sins Demon King!"

"Are you afraid?"

Guagua patted the big bug's head and said in a conscientious manner:
"History is written by the victors!"

"In the future Desire Realm, the Big Tadpole will be the center of power. The Seven Sins and the Seven Virtues must respect his opinions!"

"Big tadpole?"

The Silver Bell Insect Saint, who understood human nature, followed Gua Gua's gaze and secretly looked at Ye Hanjun.

Judging from the naked eye alone, this person is completely dry and it is difficult to gauge his depth.

But... the creature hanging on his feet blinked its bloodshot eyes because of its gaze.

"boom!"

The sky seemed to be falling down, and the dizzy Silver Bell Insect Saint couldn't tell east, west, south, or north for a moment.

When it finally woke up, it immediately prostrated itself on the ground and kowtowed to the three people:
"Greetings to the three supreme gods! I am willing to follow the footsteps of the supreme gods and defeat the seven evil demon kings together!"

"Eh? I've said so much, but the effect is minimal."

"The rag only revealed a hint of divinity, and you agreed to it. You changed your mind too quickly..."

Guagua pouted and looked angry.

Of course, its anger comes quickly and goes away quickly.

After Bana successfully signed the contract with the Silver Bell Bug Saint, the First Saint's followers under the Big Tadpole finally had spirit companions of the same rank to participate in the war.

It became lively and energetic again, without any trace of regret on its face.

……

Half a month later, the iron-free dungeon.

This is an ancient city that is tens of thousands of meters deep underground. It was built in the ninth era of the ancient universe.

To this day, thanks to its solidity and concealment, it remains a model of a peaceful and prosperous life.

The human beings living here are protected by dozens of guardian holy spirits, and the pressure is greatly reduced.

Bana's arrival did not cause any trouble and was very low-key.

She did not expose her whereabouts easily. After all, if she thought about it, she must be the target of the Seven Sins Demon Clan.

Whether it was being betrayed by her fellow humans or causing a bloodbath in the places they passed through, these were not the scenes she wanted to see.

"Selling buns! Fresh Niu Mo buns! Fragrant and sweet!"

"Aunt Shen, you look good today. Oh, is this your daughter? She has grown up to be so pretty. I wonder which silly boy will marry her in the future..."

"Knock, knock, knock! A new round of awakening ceremony is about to begin. Children who are seventeen years old or older and cannot actively awaken their powers, please go to the awakening hall immediately. The shaman elders are waiting for you!"...

There are hundreds of chaotic sounds in my ears.

These sounds came from humans on the street. As long as they were within Ye Hanjun's perception range, he could capture them without any mistakes.

At first, all he heard were normal conversations in human society, so he remained calm.

But as he listened, he couldn't help but prick up his ears and a hint of astonishment appeared in his eyes.

"Dad, I've joined the Grey Sun Cult!"

"You idiot, you want to die. The Seven Virtues can't stand the wrath of the Seven Sins, and you join a cult. Do you want to kill the five people in our family?!"

On the corner of the street, in an old shabby house, through the crack in the window, an old man and a young man were having a conversation.

At this time, the older one was so angry that he started cursing.

However, the young man who was confronting him seemed to have expected this.

He waited until the elder had finished scolding him and his emotions had calmed down a lot before he said seriously:

"Dad, this is not a cult, this is a righteous religion."

"The God of Gray Sun is a true god who fell in ancient times. His strength is no less than that of the Seven Sin Demon Gods."

“Although I don’t know his heritage, how could he suddenly break into the self-enclosed Desire Realm.”

"But this is obviously good news. The Seven Virtues corresponding to the Merciful Ancestor, plus the Gray Sun Cult corresponding to the Gray Sun God, have two major human forces working together. Are they just thinking about fighting against the Seven Sins? No, no, no, maybe one day they can fight back."

"Oh!"

The elder smashed a teacup and said angrily:

"A Pan, don't let the devil get you crazy!"

"Dad has lived his whole life and never heard of the Gray Sun God!"

"This must be because the Seven Virtues are facing the catastrophe of falling. Some bad people are causing trouble and want to squeeze out the last bit of nutrients from the human race, absorb them all, and then let us fend for ourselves!"

"No, Dad, it's not like that!"

The young man stood up and argued:
"I have seen the left guardian of the Grey Sun Cult. She is dressed in a flaming robe and her head is like a flaming wheel. She can burn the vassals of the Seven Sins with just a slender finger!"

"Moreover, that day she successfully rescued Diligence, one of the Seven Virtues. This shows that the Seven Virtues and the Gray Sun Cult have been cooperating for a long time, but it was too secretive and the people were still unaware. When the time is right, His people will surely sweep across the Desire Realm like a flame!"

"Wow~~~"

The conversation between the two was still going on when suddenly, a man and a woman emerged from the shadows cast by the lampstand in the house.

The young man named "Apan" realized it later and suddenly grabbed the short blade at his waist.

"Snapped."

Ye Hanjun watched with his eyes, and the hand froze in the air, unable to touch the weapon no matter what.

At this point, A Pan was horrified and realized that he had met a super strong man whose strength far exceeded his own.

After only two breaths, he suddenly calmed down and asked with gritted teeth:
"Who is your Excellency?"

"I have no ill intentions, I'm just a little interested in what you just said."

Ye Hanjun snapped his fingers, took out a few longevity elixirs from his storage ring, and placed them casually on the table.

At the same time, the sound of a door opening was heard outside the house. Bana walked in and looked at the four people present with a little confusion.

"What happened? How did you break into the house?"

"He seems to have seen my companions. How can I just sit back and watch this kind of information?"

Ye Hanjun smiled, and suddenly the only trace of oppression disappeared, and he sat down calmly on a chair.

It can be seen that the owner of this house is not well-off.

Even the chair legs are spliced ​​together and could break again at any time.

But Ye Hanjun did not despise it, and neither did Ye Liuying.

Seeing that both of them had sat down and were about to have a friendly chat, Bana stepped forward, patted the young man on the back, and supported the older man, saying softly, “I’m so glad to see you.
"I am Justice among the seven virtues. You can tell me anything. Don't be afraid."

"Justice?"

The wrinkles on the face of the elderly man, whose body was already stiff, twitched and he stuck out his tongue in shock.

The young man, A Pan, was also shocked for a moment, but he was very adaptable and remained calm, trying to sort out his thoughts:

"Your Excellency heard our conversation just now. Could it be that the content you are interested in is "diligence"? "

"Well, diligence is one of the seven virtues, so naturally we want to know his whereabouts."

"But I also heard about the Grey Sun Cult. Is this a new force in the Desire Realm? How did you join it?"

"..."

A Pan's eyes twitched and he suddenly fell silent.

If he were an ordinary villain, he might try every means to gain your trust.

But the current situation is unclear, and one of these three people calls himself "righteous". The development of the situation has seriously exceeded his ability.

"Don't be nervous, I am also a member of the Gray Sun Cult."

Ye Hanjun thought about it and activated the Gray Sun between his eyebrows.

At the same time, the gray full moon between Ye Liuying's eyebrows and the gray stars between Bana's eyebrows also emitted the same light.

"Really Gray Sun?!"

A Pan, who was hesitant, couldn't help but be shocked.

He had seen this pattern before, and he even had the same badge in his arms!

"Quack! We just took a nap, but Little Sun did so many things?"

Gua Gua crawled out from Ye Hanjun's back and stood on his shoulders openly.

Its eyes moved around, showing curiosity and amusement.

The only person who could know about the Gray Day was the friends who stayed on the small wooden boat with Lie Xinxin.

In other words, before Big Tadpole himself officially started to exert his strength, Lie Xinxin actually helped spread the legend of the God of Gray Sun? This is really a telepathic connection!
"Meet...the messenger of God!"

Ah Pan suddenly knelt on one knee. The tension disappeared from his face, and he was filled with endless awe:

"The left protector said that when you meet someone with the Gray Sun mark engraved on his forehead, you can regard him as the leader of the Divine Religion."

"He is the only disciple of the Gray Sun God. He is the continuation of His bloodline and His incarnation."

"And Huiyue is the Holy Envoy of the second echelon, and his status is second only to that of the others."

"According to the prophecy of the King of Holy Beasts, when the gray sun descends upon the Desire Realm, the fate of the declining and suffering human race will turn around..."

"Now it seems that the time has come!"

"You really showed up. The human race in the Desire Realm... is saved!"

A mist welled up in the corner of A Pan's eyes.

It not only reflects the excitement in his heart, but also hides his infinite yearning for a better future.

"Get up."

Ye Hanjun stepped forward to support him and at the same time stuffed a Gray Star Key between his eyebrows.

"Buzzing..."

After a brief sublimation, A Pan opened his eyes again, his clothes fluttering in the wind, and it seemed as if there was a dormant dragon inside his body.

A look of amazement appeared on his face, and he looked at his hands in wonder.

Then, he no longer had any suspicion and said with an even more respectful attitude:
"Master Shen Yi Envoy, have you lost contact with the Left Protector? Do you need her latest information?"

"Yeah." Ye Hanjun nodded, "Due to some force majeure, she and I have been separated for a long time and have temporarily lost contact."

"Then I will tell you everything I know."

Ah Pan said solemnly and logically:

"The last time I met the Left Protector was about thirty years ago."

"At that time, I left the dungeon and went out hunting. I was chased by monsters and it was the Left Protector who saved me."

"Then, when I was leaving, I hid in a corner and accidentally saw several primordial dragon demons radiating rageful flames. They stood above my head like mountains, with overwhelming power and invincibility."

"They are hunting a human being, a seriously injured human being."

"That man is Diligence. His left arm is broken, his right eye is blind, and he is in critical condition."

"The left protector risked his life to save them, and together with a few other fire-attributed beasts, they managed to drive back the Primordial Dragon Demon's pursuers."

"Then... I was touched by a trace of the aftermath and fainted on the spot."

"Fortunately, I survived the incident. A group of people who claimed to be from the Grey Sun Cult rescued me."

"Then I joined them. At the same time, I heard that the situation of the Left Protector was not optimistic. The seven evil descendants of the wrathful side were still hunting her and Qinfen all over the world. They said that they would not let her go even if she fled to the ends of the earth..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Hanjun's eyes gradually turned cold.

Rage...Original Dragon Demon...

This clan seems to have a way to die...

After thinking about it, he asked again:

"Any more recent news?"

"For example, where has she been these past few years? I will go find her immediately." (End of this chapter)
