All players: I can choose my own dungeon rewards.

Chapter 439: Changes in the Demon Sealing List

As soon as Wang Zhifan entered the ink-and-wash portal in front of him, he found that the place he had arrived looked like a thatched hut.

Its interior space is not very spacious, nor does it have any gorgeous decorations, but it gives people a particularly simple and stable feeling, as if arriving at an old home that makes people feel at ease deep in their hearts.

"My dear friend, my humble abode is simple. Please feel free to find a chair and sit down."

The teacher with long gray hair was sitting on a simple wooden stool, working at a square wooden table that looked even simpler and older. He was holding a brush in his right hand and writing something on a roll of yellow cloth.

Without waiting for Wang Zhifan who had just come in to greet him, he raised his head slightly and spoke to him in a calm tone.

"Thank you very much, Master... I wonder what you want to talk to me about?"

Wang Zhifan wasn't quite sure how to show the right etiquette in this situation, so he simply kept things simple and asked the teacher in front of him directly. After all, the other party didn't look like a particularly old-fashioned person.

"Haha...you are indeed a person with a straightforward style."

As expected, the teacher who was writing at his desk did not seem unhappy to see him speak so directly. Instead, a peaceful smile appeared on his face.

He then placed the brush that had just finished writing the last word on the inkstone beside him, picked up the yellow cloth covered with words on the table and examined it, while speaking to Wang Zhifan:
"I asked you to come here not for personal matters, but to deal with the upcoming disaster... I have been deducing the secrets of heaven recently and found that there are some additional variables in the invasion of the demon world. The most prudent strategy is to let you deal with these variables, so I invited you to come over for a chat."

"May I ask what the specific variables are, Master?"

Wang Zhifan felt a little unhappy when he heard what he said here. Mainly because he hated to ponder such vague riddles. The amount of information was pitifully small. In many cases, it was better not to know. At least when he didn't know, his mentality would not be affected by the riddle and he would not be suspicious.

"They are visitors from outside the domain. Many of them are enemies of the Disaster Realm and of you. They will invade the Disaster Realm along with the army of the Demon Realm."

The Master then explained it much more clearly, allowing Wang Zhifan to immediately understand what the existence in front of him who was called the number one under the Saint was referring to.

"Out-of-region visitors? Could he be talking about the fact that there will be many hostile players coming over from the Demon Realm?"

Wang Zhifan was a little confused for a moment, wondering why this situation shouldn't have happened.

Because the players in this instance are all on the side of the Disaster Realm by default, only the "Avengers" with special identities will be hostile to other players, but the problem is that according to his understanding, Avengers players need to be VIP or SVIP players to transform, but where are there so many VIP players concentrated in this instance? And all these VIP players have chosen the Demon Realm? No matter how you think about it, it doesn't make sense!
So he immediately asked the Master:
"Master, do you know the approximate number of those visitors from outside the region?"

The Master raised the yellow cloth with writings on it a little higher and answered casually:
"If my calculation is correct, it should be more than two hundred."

"More than two hundred 'Avengers'... How is it possible... This is a rip-off!"

Wang Zhifan was speechless when he heard what he said. He began to seriously doubt whether he had misunderstood the information provided by the other party. He couldn't help but move his eyes slightly and frown.

At this time, the Master finally shifted his gaze from the yellow cloth in his hand, raised his head and smiled at him, saying:
"My friend, don't be confused. It is just as you thought. There may be some subtle differences, but those visitors from outside the domain are indeed opponents you are familiar with... I hope you can be well prepared and repel them together with the army of the demon world..."

After he finished speaking, without seeing any special movements from this rumored existence that was as powerful as a saint, Wang Zhifan noticed that the scene in front of him changed, and he instantly returned to the small cave where he had entered the ink and wash portal before.

And just before he left, he remembered seeing three large, ancient characters written on the side of the yellow cloth in the Master's hand facing him: The Demon Sealing List.

Just as Wang Zhifan was deep in thought, a tall and graceful figure came from behind him. It was the Moon-Destroying Dragon Sword who had entered the cave in advance and was waiting there.

"Brother Fan, what did the Master say to you?"

Mieyue Longdao was obviously very concerned about why Wang Zhifan was specially summoned by the Master, and she asked with a very curious look on her face.

"It's about asking me to pay attention to dealing with enemies outside the domain...but I don't quite understand the details yet."

Wang Zhifan naturally did not hide anything about his partner. After all, it would be difficult for most of the people in the copy to have as accurate an understanding of their group as the Master did. Even if he told them, they would not understand the real situation.

"Enemy from outside the domain? Could it be that...besides the Demon Realm, there are enemies from other worlds that intend to invade our Disaster Realm?"

Unexpectedly, the Moon-Destroying Dragon Blade followed suit and immediately gave a personal understanding that was almost the same.

"That's about it... Let me continue to think about it."

Wang Zhifan immediately stopped the topic because he still had a lot of details to think about in order to confirm the authenticity of the important information provided by the Master.

The dragon girl also saw that he didn't want to talk more, so she didn't say any more about this. The two of them then left the cave together and went back outside to continue wandering leisurely, planning to eat something and make some new friends.

Before this, Mr. Qingfeng also happened to rush over from the Central Garden, and came with a very curious look to inquire what Wang Zhifan knew from the Master.

Wang Zhifan actually didn't want to say much to this guy, but since he was one of the landlords of this conference, he revealed a little to him to satisfy his curiosity.

"Enemy from outside the realm? Which realm? Could it be those incomplete little worlds that are even further away than the Demon Realm? I heard that the strongest being there is not even a super-innate one, so it's not worth mentioning at all!"

After hearing this, Mr. Qingfeng showed a bit of disdain. He did not take the so-called foreign enemies seriously at all. He was obviously more concerned about other aspects. He then asked Wang Zhifan in a mysterious whisper:
"Wu Zun, when you went in just now, did you notice what the teacher was writing?"

"Well, the Master wrote on a roll of yellow cloth."

Wang Zhifan answered with some doubt on his face.

"Yellow cloth? That's right! Wu Zun, you may not know that this item is extremely extraordinary! It is the key to this conference!"

"Oh? Then I'll have to look forward to it."

After chatting with Mr. Qingfeng for a while, Wang Zhifan and the others parted ways with him again. The main reason was that this guy was not as free as they were, and he had too many people and matters to deal with.

The following time was relatively peaceful and boring. After Wang Zhifan and Mieyue Longdao had enough of the delicious food, they went out of their way to make friends with some of the people present, especially those who were younger and of the same generation as them. They found out that all the people attending the meeting were indeed outstanding figures from all walks of life.

For example, there were young masters who came from the Dao Realm to provide support like Wang Zhifan's original identity, fierce men from the Disaster Realm who had once ventured into the Demon Realm alone and returned safely, special tribes similar to the Moon-Destroying Clan who specialized in the Way of the White Tiger, Black Tortoise, and Vermillion Bird True Spirits, and barbarian hermits who claimed to have opened up a new path. All of these people not only had a powerful aura, but each of them gave people the feeling of having experienced many stories, which made Wang Zhifan and Moon-Destroying Dragon Blade feel that they were just ordinary people here.

Of course, we will only know who is more capable after the catastrophe begins.

The two of them made some new friends, and then they gathered with Zhenxuzi, Huayangzi and the members of the Mieyue tribe, and talked with each other until noon, when the conference officially began.

Just like all the guests gathered for breakfast in the morning, the meeting convened by the Master to fight against the invasion of the demon world was also held in a small world.

But this time, hundreds of thousands of super-innate monks did not gather in a place with beautiful mountains and rivers. The Master chose to hold the meeting in an ancient battlefield with yellow sand and blood-red setting sun to highlight the heavy atmosphere of the conference and the determination of the monks in the disaster realm to fight to the death with the demon world.

At this moment, in an area of ​​ruins half-hidden in the vast yellow sand, nearly a thousand monks formed a semicircle.

Some of them gathered at the top of the sand dune, some stood on the tips of the broken stone pillars protruding from the gravel surface, and some simply sat in the air, or molded the surrounding sand and gravel into temporary chairs, their eyes focused on the top of an empty and broken stone temple in front of them.

Wang Zhifan, Mieyue Longdao, Zhenxuzi, Huayangzi, Mieyue Aotian and others were all standing low-key on a huge rock in the sand, which might have been the back of a stone sculpture of a guardian beast. Like everyone else, they remained calm and silent, looking towards the top of the stone hall where everyone's eyes were focused.

They didn't have to wait for long before a middle-aged man with long gray hair, who was taken very seriously by everyone, slowly emerged. He was the convener of this conference, the Confucian master who was said to be able to become a saint at any time.

As a very high-end conference, after the Master appeared, there was no noise from the crowd as there would be in a secular gathering. They all remained calm and waited quietly for the Master to speak.

"Dear guests! We are glad that you can attend this conference!"

The Master's first paragraph was not particularly surprising. He expressed his gratitude to the participants like an ordinary middle-aged man.

But no one was distracted at this moment, and everyone listened carefully and seriously.

"I know that you all came here to learn about our strategy of fighting against the demon world, so I will not waste any more words and directly tell you about the arrangements of the three saints."

After he finished speaking, a piece of ancient rectangular yellow cloth appeared in his hand. Then he raised the ancient yellow cloth and it continued to grow bigger and longer in the strong wind and sand.

At the beginning it was only as long as one person, but soon it became hundreds of feet long and dozens of feet wide, spreading high in the muddy yellow sky, as if it was an imperial decree from God to the people of the lower world.

"This is a gift from the three saints. I call it: The Demon Sealing List!"

As the Master's voice shook the four directions, everyone saw three weathered and vigorous characters appearing on the ancient yellow cloth under the muddy yellow sky. These were the "Demon Sealing List" that the Master had mentioned.

For a moment, the many super-innate monks below were shocked. Some of them looked up at the ancient giant cloth in the sky with surprise, as if shocked by its incomparably noble nature; some of them fixed their eyes on the three words "Demon Sealing List", as if they were thinking about the specific meaning of these three words.

But no one was whispering at this time, and everyone continued to listen to the Master's words.

“The word ‘Feng Mo’ is taken from the meaning of ‘Feng Jin Mo Jie’ (sealing all demons)!

Everyone present, whether you kill the demon army or drive the demons back to the demon world and never let them return, will be recorded on this Demon Sealing List!

All demon-sealing achievements will be recorded on the list, and ranked in order of achievement!"

"After defeating the demon world, those who rank in the top 100 on the list will be able to personally hear the voice of the Three Saints, regardless of whether they are alive or dead. The dead will be resurrected, the injured will be healed, and they will receive rewards from the Three Saints!"

“Those who rank in the top ten on the list will learn the secret of becoming a saint and embark on the path of becoming a saint!”

"For the person who tops the list, the Three Saints can grant any reasonable wish of his or hers once!"

As soon as the Master said these words, the many monks who had been listening quietly became excited and could no longer suppress the urge to discuss.

"The top 100 on the Demon Sealing List can be brought back to life! The saint is really generous!"

"The secret of becoming a saint is even more precious! Throughout history, many top masters have been stuck at the super-innate level and can never break through!"

"It is extremely rare to have any wish fulfilled! As expected, it is the only one who can do it at the top of the list! If I have this luck, I will definitely ask the saint to grant me immortality!"

……

The discussion was so heated that the Master, who was the focus of everyone's attention, paused his speech and waited for the many monks to digest the information he had just said.

The people around Wang Zhifan also started discussing, among whom Taoist Zhenxuzi was the first to sigh:
"I have less than 200 years left to live, and a breakthrough is even more distant. I originally planned to return to dust when the time comes, but now it seems that I have to fight for my old bones!"

The equally not-so-young Mieyue clan leader, Mieyue Aotian, also murmured:

“I don’t know what the secret of becoming a saint is… I don’t ask for a saint to be born in my clan, as long as I can make further progress in the path of the true spirit, it will be a great honor…”

Hua Yangzi, the fat Taoist, also looked a little excited and said:

“It seems very difficult to be in the top 100 on the list, but having a high level of cultivation does not necessarily mean you will kill more enemies. Chance and coincidence have a great influence. Ordinary super-innate cultivators like us are not without a chance.”

Only Wang Zhifan had a relatively calm expression. He waited quietly for the teacher's next words.

Soon, seeing that the people around him had almost finished discussing, the Master began to explain the other functions of the Demon Sealing List, making it clear to everyone that this was not just a ranking list, but a treasure that could actually help them defeat the demon world.

For example, the Demon Sealing List is hidden in the void and has endless clones. Everyone present can summon it out at any time to know the overall situation of the disaster realm and communicate information with the people on the list.

Moreover, everyone has certain permissions and can rely on the Demon Sealing List to escape urgently or rush to the designated location in the disaster zone, which is equivalent to having restricted teleportation capabilities, which is bound to greatly enhance the flexibility of combat.
