Devouring the Starry Sky: You will become stronger through practice

After reading the information, Luo Shen looked at the waiter beside him and saw that he was still waiting respectfully.

There was a strange flash in his eyes.

But Luo Shen didn't say anything, but continued to search for the bounty mission through the subpoena.

There are numerous bounty missions issued by the Dark Palace. In addition to the more common protection missions and mercenary missions, there are also more difficult assassination missions.

The most prominent one is naturally the mission to assassinate the supreme commander of the Huyang Legion, 'Mo Lixiao'.

Mo Lixiao, as the supreme commander of the ten legions of Huyang City, is a super strong man and the person in power standing at the top of the pyramid of Huyang City. Even the city lord attaches great importance to the opinions of this supreme commander.

But even so.

In the dark hall, the bounty for assassinating the opponent was still hanging high. Even Luo Shen was tempted by the generous reward.

However, if Mo Lixiao were alive, his plan for Luo Shen would be better than if he were dead. After all, the City Lord's Mansion was directly under the jurisdiction of the King of Yu State and it was impossible to win him over.

But Mo Lixiao is different.

Although he served as the supreme commander of the ten legions of Huyang City, he did not have much sense of belonging to the State of Yu. The reason he was able to hold this position was more because of his strength and the influence of the Moli clan in Huyang City.

As if noticing Luo Shen's gaze, the waiter smiled and explained, "The Dark Palace is a neutral force. We don't care who the mission is for. As long as the client can afford the money, we dare to take it."

The waiter added: "Even the God King is the same!"

With the strength of Yanfeng Guild, it is certainly qualified to say such things.

Not to mention the supreme commander of the ten legions of a small Huyang City, if someone is willing to offer a price to hunt down the king of Yu State, they will definitely take on this task as long as they can afford the price.

Luo Shen nodded.

His eyes wandered over the summons, scanning for suitable tasks. After all, he was very poor now. If he wanted to proceed to the fourth level of smelting, he would need a lot of materials. Some of the top-grade materials were even more expensive than the same amount of Amethyst Spirit.

However, what made Luo Shen feel a little disappointed was that there were only Eternal True Gods in the Huyang City, so the highest level missions were also those at the Eternal True God level. Although there were missions to assassinate the Eternal True God, such as Mo Lixiao, there were only two of them, and the price was only tens of thousands of cosmic sands, which did not exceed Luo Shen's expectations.

As I said before, assassinating Mo Lixiao is not in Luo Shen’s interest, so let’s just pass it.

So Luo Shen directly set his sights on another task.

"Assassinate the Master of Quicksand Valley!"

This is the assassination mission with the highest reward after the assassination of the Legion Leader Mo Lixiao, and it is only short of 10,000 cosmic sands.

But from the mission introduction, it can be clearly seen that the strength of the Lord of Liusha Valley is definitely not weak, and the difficulty of assassinating him is even not lower than that of Mo Lixiao!
Luo Shen carefully looked at the information about the master of the Quicksand Valley in the mission introduction.

As the saying goes, knowing yourself and your enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger. Even if Luo Shen is absolutely sure that he can kill any Eternal True God, he will never look down on it.

When he was still very weak, he remembered a sentence: the universe is very big and you should never underestimate any enemy.

Although the person who said this was only a barely-noble figure, his influence on the Earth was extremely important, so Luo Shen still remembers these words to this day.

The Quicksand Valley is a dangerous place outside Huyang City, in the opposite direction of the Wild Beast Forest. The scorpion spirits in the quicksand in the valley contain extremely rich spiritual essence, which can not only nourish the soul, but also allow practitioners to slightly increase the speed of sensing the power of heaven and earth. Most importantly, it tastes extremely delicious and can be sold at a good price.

Therefore, this Quicksand Valley has also become an area where many True God teams from Huyang City and True Gods of the Void go to explore.

The title of Lord of the Liusha Valley came from a group of bandits who had been entrenched in the Liusha Valley and whose name was gradually grown stronger.

In terms of strength, this group of bandits is certainly far from being able to completely occupy the Quicksand Valley.

But because they had cultivated several Eternal True Gods through burning, killing and looting over the years, and were familiar with the terrain of the Quicksand Valley, they were able to defend it from a dangerous position.

Even though the ten legions of Huyang City organized several encirclement and suppression operations, they were still unable to completely wipe them out, and the enemy still firmly occupied the area around Liusha Valley.

of course.

According to the information, these bandits are not only powerful, but also insidious and cunning.

The reason why the repeated encirclement and suppression of Huyang City failed was because the enemy had an insider in the city, and the status of this insider in the legion should not be low. After all, the person who could clearly understand the command and deployment of the Huyang City Legion was probably at least at the level of a deputy general.

The person who issued the mission had been assassinated by the bandits of Quicksand Valley a long time ago, but before his death, he deposited 100,000 cosmic sands into the Dark Palace, so the mission has continued.

During this period, many people took on this task, but the final results were all failures without exception.

Except for one person who managed to escape, all the others who failed fell into the clutches of the bandits in the Quicksand Valley.

"interesting."

Luo Shen glanced at the introduction about the master of Liusha Valley, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.

The Lord of the Quicksand Valley refers to the leader of this gang of bandits. He has the strength of an Eternal True God and is proficient in the origin of quicksand. In a place like the Quicksand Valley, he is particularly proficient in life-saving methods. Moreover, the harassment of the other party has made the practitioners who went to encircle and suppress him unbearable.

"It is said that no one knows the real strength of this big boss. Just the means he has shown are enough to make the entire Huyang City unable to underestimate him."

Luo Shen has a good memory.

In other words, any strong man of his level must have a very strong memory, otherwise how could he understand the mysterious laws of origin?
So he soon discovered an interesting message.

That is, the time when the Lord of the Quicksand Valley appeared was almost the same as the time when a certain Chaos Realm strongman from the Food Country disappeared, and the methods used by both sides to understand the Quicksand Origin Laws were somewhat similar.

Although it is impossible to determine that the other party is the same person, the mysterious disappearance of a Chaos Realm strongman at the critical time point of the confrontation between the Yu Kingdom and the Shi Kingdom, and the sudden appearance of a Master of the Quicksand Valley in Huyang City, did make Luo Shen feel a bit of conspiracy.

"Did he intentionally conceal his strength, or did he perform a secret reincarnation technique? Or is there some other method that I don't know about?"

Although there was no basis for his claim, Luo Shen still equated the Lord of the Quicksand Valley with the Chaos Realm expert from the Food Country.

of course.

Even if the other party really had nothing to do with the Food Kingdom, he didn't care. Since he was going to take on this mission, it meant that the other party was doomed.

Since you are going to die, why bother about anything else?

"Your Majesty, are you planning to take on this mission?"

The waiter was sharp-eyed. He saw that Luo Shen had been lingering on the introduction of this task for a long time and then clicked into the task browsing. He expected that Luo Shen wanted to take the task and was about to tell him some secrets of the task. Unexpectedly, Luo Shen's eyes suddenly shot straight into his heart like an eagle.

"Although I don't know what your position is in Yanfeng Hall, please be clear that there should be a sense of propriety between customers and waiters."

Although the waiter had always been thinking about Luo Shen and even gave him a lot of benefits, the other party's practice of constantly interfering in his affairs did indeed arouse his disgust.

The waiter opened his mouth to speak.

But he was interrupted by Luo Shen who waved his hand, stood up and walked out of Yanfeng Hall.

Before leaving, Luo Shen said, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally, "Even if you want to cooperate with me, you have to reveal your identity first. You don't want to reveal your identity, but you want to make money from me. It's really a fantasy."

These words finally reached the ears of the waiter.

Hearing these words, the waiter's face turned blue and red, and his expression kept changing, but he finally exhaled deeply and looked in the direction where Luo Shen left: "This Abyss God is really extraordinary. I just revealed my thoughts a little bit, and he has seen through my mind."

That's not the most important thing.

It's not like he hadn't come into contact with other gods before, but although some of them had discovered his hidden thoughts, none of them had pointed it out directly like Luo Shen had.

After all, if you get something for free, you might as well take advantage of it.

"It seems that I can't play such tricks on this Abyss Lord next time."

The waiter thought to himself, then turned around and walked into a secret hall in the guild hall and disappeared.

On the way out, Luo Shen's mind was recalling every detail of his previous interactions with the waiter, and he finally determined that the waiter did have some plans against him.

Or maybe the other party has some plan and needs your help.

"As expected, only after showing off one's strength can one be exposed to more interesting things. The information released today was probably released intentionally by the other party. I just don't know what the other party's purpose is."

Luo Shen was thinking in his heart.

He had walked away directly before, certainly not because of the other party's presumptuous behavior.

Luo Shen was too narrow-minded to offend a waiter for such a small matter. How could he become the ruler of a country in the future? It was mainly because of the other party's identity. How could a waiter get along with an eternal true god on an equal footing and try to control him?

Even if the other party has some hidden identity, so what?
Luo Shen would not reach any deal with the other party until the other party honestly told him his identity, even if the other party was very likely to be from one of the transcendent forces of the Yanfeng Club.

However, apart from this, Luo Shen was also thinking about the master of Liusha Valley.

"According to the introduction, the bandits of the Quicksand Valley have now taken root in a small oasis on the north side of the Quicksand Valley. Unless they are surrounded and suppressed, that will be their lair."

Luo Shen thought to himself.

"In that case, should I go and deal with the other party first?"

One hundred thousand cosmic sands is not too much, but not too little either. It is equivalent to the wealth of ten ordinary eternal true gods. For a strong man of Luo Shen's level, this is nothing.

But what really moved Luo Shen was.

As mentioned in the introduction, this group of bandits in the Quicksand Valley have been rich because of the countless robberies over the years. If we can catch them all in one fell swoop, the profit will definitely be a hundred times the profit of this mission!
A hundred times, a thousand times! ?

That would be tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of grains of sand in the universe!
Even if it is discounted by half, there will be tens of millions of cosmic sands of treasure. If we can get it, it will be enough for the smelting materials of the fourth and fifth levels of the smelting method. Even if it is not enough, it will be enough to destroy a few big families.

Although he had no intention of killing Mo Lixiao, Luo Shen had no intention of holding back against the other big families in Huyang City.

As for fat sheep, you have to choose the fat ones to slaughter!
Quicksand Valley.

Even though everyone knew there was a notorious group of bandits in the Quicksand Valley, it was still bustling with people. There were a large number of True God teams and Void True Gods flying across the sky with flying secret treasures, and some were guarding a certain sand dune, diligently searching for sand scorpions in the yellow sand.

Although the bandits in the Quicksand Valley burned, killed and looted, they generally targeted larger merchant groups or transport teams. They rarely exploited ordinary True Gods or Void True Gods, which was why the Quicksand Valley was still prosperous.

But even so.

The area around the small oasis where the bandits of Quicksand Valley were located was still empty. No True God or Void True God dared to try to challenge the authority of the other party, which was no different from seeking death.

Although they knew that the bandits would not easily take action, the practitioners from Huyang City who made a living in the Liusha Valley would occasionally look towards the area where the bandits' lair was located.

Just as a powerful Void True God who had killed the sand scorpion was contentedly collecting the scorpion spirit and sand scorpion corpse on the ground, his eyes subconsciously looked towards the small oasis.

Then he discovered something that surprised him.

An extremely dense darkness completely enveloped the entire oasis, as if a black cloth completely covered it. Even with the eyesight of the True God of the Void, he could not see anything.

"It's a small universe! Are those bandits in Quicksand Valley being attacked by the Eternal True God?!"

The True God of the Void was inexplicably shocked.

Although strong men have been trying to defeat the bandits in the Quicksand Valley over the years, the ultimate result has always been failure. This time, the opponent's first attack was with thunderous wrath. I wonder if there will be any other changes.

In other directions of the Quicksand Valley, strong men also discovered this scene.

"The group of bandits in Quicksand Valley are enveloped in a small universe, and there are strong fluctuations of divine power erupting from it!"

"It's the Eternal True God! Another Eternal True God is here to kill us!"

"Quick, report to the City Lord's Mansion. If we send out the army at this time, we will be able to capture them all in one fell swoop!"

While a group of strong men in the Quicksand Valley passed the news back to Huyang City, Luo Shen's right hand had already clenched into a claw and reached forward. Suddenly, it expanded dramatically, and a huge hand that covered the sky distorted the surrounding space and time, and forcibly grabbed the secret pattern of the formation covering the small oasis.

As the lair of bandits, the formation above this small oasis is naturally extremely powerful. Otherwise, if it fails to react when someone attacks it, it will be a complete failure.

However, facing Luo Shen's huge hand, this powerful formation exploded one after another, and many formation bases exploded directly, and the operating formation was completely torn apart! In a short time, Luo Shen had already rushed into the bandits' lair, and the terrifying big hand grabbed directly below.

Even among the Eternal True Gods, there are very few who can withstand his attack, let alone those ordinary bandits.

But in just a short time, Luo Shen had already opened the prelude to a fight. (End of this chapter)
