Chapter 177 The style of painting is a little bit wrong
Something going on behind the scenes?

Zhou Yuan was stunned.

This unusual event is of great significance, as it involves a brief intersection of two dimensions.

If there really is someone behind this, that person must have means to do anything that is omnipotent.

However, there is no need to worry too much. The high-end combat forces of the Control Bureau must have already entered this world. If they are not absolutely sure, they will not issue a notice to summon the extraordinary people.

Hmm... think about it more deeply. Since the Control Bureau has not yet razed the mansion of the Lord of Ghost Market to the ground, it means that the high-end combat forces have already confronted the mastermind behind the scenes and have no time to take action. They can only mobilize other extraordinary people to go there.

There must be a lot of good things in the mansion of the Lord of Ghost Market.

Zhou Yuan thought about it and finally decided: "Let's go."

Fang Qing nodded slightly towards the white-faced and rosy-cheeked vendor:

"Then take me to meet the Lord of Ghost City."

[An event has been detected, and tasks are being generated...]

[Mission name: "Two Worlds"]

[Mission Objective: Destroy the plane channel maintenance device in the ghost market lord's mansion 0/1]

[Task Reward 1: Experience Points*800]

[Task Reward 2: Star Coins*5000]

The system's prompt sounded in Zhou Yuan's mind, and the words "plane channel maintenance device" made him frown secretly. This thing didn't sound like something that belonged to this world.

If it was a local creation, the name should be more mysterious...

·
Before leaving, Fang Qing put away the Xuanming coffin and the spirit tablet without saying a word, which made the white-faced and rosy-cheeked merchant happy, thinking that this transaction seemed to be promising.

Although it lost two extremely precious magic weapons, if it could establish a cooperative relationship between the Ghost King and the Lord of the Ghost Market, the benefits it could gain would definitely far outweigh the value of the two magic weapons.

The white-faced and rosy-cheeked merchant hurriedly led everyone to the residence of the owner of the Ghost Market. Due to the ban on the Ghost Market, the use of vehicles such as horses and flying boats was not allowed, so they could only go there on foot.

Zhou Yuan stopped at a bookstore on the way and wanted to buy some books to learn more about this world.

He originally wanted to take another look at the cultivation techniques, but was told by the store owner that all the techniques had just been bought up by a group of people, and that group was openly purchasing all kinds of techniques at high prices. Many cultivators disguised as ghosts could not resist the temptation and sold their cultivation techniques.

Zhou Yuan was not surprised by this. The knowledge system from other worlds has always been a rare strategic resource, and all major forces would be jealous. He just didn't know whether that group of people were from the Control Bureau or other forces.

Since a large amount of inventory had been cleared out, Zhou Yuan could only buy books such as world maps, history books, and legends that were still available in large quantities.

According to historical records, one hundred thousand years ago, the world encountered a catastrophe and was in danger. But at this critical moment, an immortal descended from the sky, resolved the catastrophe, and saved hundreds of millions of lives.

From then on, becoming an immortal became the ultimate goal of all cultivators.

After preventing the catastrophe of heaven and earth, the immortal used his supreme magical powers to move the continental plates, dividing them into five continents: east, south, west, north and center. Each continent is vast and boundless, and it is impossible for a mortal to cross a continent in his entire life.

The current location of the group is a country in the north of the Southern Region, called the Daqian Dynasty. It has been established for more than 500 years and is the most powerful dynasty in this area.

The main reason why it is the most powerful is that the founding emperor of Daqian is a cultivator at the fusion realm. A cultivator at this realm is undoubtedly like a dragon if placed in a small corner of the Southern Region. As long as he is alive, Daqian will be the strongest dynasty in this land.

Over the past five hundred years, the Daqian Dynasty has annexed countless weak dynasties to reach its current terrifying size, dominating the northern part of the Southern Region.

However, Emperor Daqian gave up his free and easy life as a cultivator and insisted on coming to this place to found a kingdom. The reason was actually simple - he wanted to use the imperial dragon energy to practice.

When one reaches his level, every step forward is as difficult as ascending to heaven. If one wants to practice, he must find another way. The way he chose is to establish a dynasty, gather the dynasty's luck, condense it into imperial dragon energy, and promote his own practice.

"Using the dynasty's luck to assist in cultivation is not a bad idea, but if the country collapses and the dynasty's luck dissipates, the emperor's cultivation will inevitably be backlashed, and he may even fall back to a lower realm. To be honest, taking this path under this worldview is a bit suicidal. Who knows one day the dynasty may be casually blown away by a passing high-level cultivator, or destroyed by the aftermath of a battle between high-level cultivators." Chen Guangxi commented sharply.

“I guess Emperor Daqian has no better way. If he wants to make further progress, he can only resort to this method. Otherwise, he will face stagnation in his cultivation until he dies of old age.” Zhou Yuan said.

For monks, being unable to improve their cultivation is undoubtedly a terrifying thing. In order to prevent this from happening, they are willing to try all possible or impossible methods at all costs.

Zhou Yuan continued to look at the maps of various provinces of the Daqian Dynasty, and finally found a specially marked ghost market in a small corner of a southeastern province.

"Compared like this, the area of ​​the Daqian Dynasty alone is probably larger than the entire earth. It's worthy of being a fantasy world." Zhou Yuan marveled.

Their communication was all in the mental channel. The pale-faced and rosy-cheeked vendor could not hear them and always led the way honestly in front.

Not long after, the white-faced and rosy-cheeked merchant led Zhou Yuan and the other two to the gate of the ghost market lord's mansion.

It scratched its hair and muttered curiously: "Why don't I see the guard?"

There were always two guards guarding the entrance of the mansion, but at this moment, there was no sign of them. No one knew where they had gone.

The vendor paused for a moment, then smiled apologetically at Fang Qing: "Please forgive me, sir. These two guys must have gone somewhere to slack off. I will ask my uncle to remove them from their posts, peel off their skin and remove their tendons, and use them to make pills."

It hurried forward, pushed open the door, and led the three people into the mansion.

But the strange thing was that the mansion was completely empty, without a single ghost. It was extremely quiet, filled with a strange atmosphere, which made the white-faced, red-cheeked vendor, who was a fierce ghost, feel a chill and fear. It thought carefully and found that the closer it got to the mansion, the fewer ghosts there were around...

Where have they all gone?

The pale-faced, rosy-cheeked merchant continued to move forward while muttering to himself, and finally led the three people into a spacious hall.

This place is also empty, with no trace of anything.

Drops of cold sweat appeared on the forehead of the pale-faced, rosy-cheeked vendor. Something was wrong, very wrong.

"My Lord... I don't know what happened here..."

Before it could finish its words, its eyes widened in surprise as it saw a flash of scarlet color passing through the air, leaving behind a sharp and fierce red line. This line passed through its body, splitting it in half right down the middle.

Bang!
It was like a white-faced, rosy-cheeked vendor suddenly exploded and turned into ashes.

Fang Qing had a blank expression on her face. Killing this little Karami was as easy as stepping on an ant.

Since something strange has happened in the mansion, there is no need to keep this damn guy anymore. Those vase girls were all created by this bastard, so their death is not a pity.

[The mansion of the ghost market lord is empty, what happened here? Let me tell you in detail: The bastard ghost market lord, who ate, drank, gambled, drank, whored, gambled, owed 350 million, and ran away with his sister-in-law! ]

Zhou Yuan's eyelids twitched, but fortunately the Eye of Identification gave him some key information:
[You are not the first group of Extraordinary people to come here. A large number of Extraordinary people have already arrived before you. Now they are fighting fiercely in a special space.

If you want to enter that special space, you can ask the beauty on the big car if there is any way. 】

Zhou Yuan couldn't help but look at Chen Guangxi, who raised his eyebrows and asked, "What are you doing?"

"There is a special space here. Do you have any way to get in?" Zhou Yuan asked.

"You can actually see that? Oh, I know. You must have used the magic tool to see it."

Chen Guangxi said, "I have been looking for the corresponding frequency since just now, don't disturb me."

After a while.

"found it."

Chen Guangxi chuckled, a silver light flashed in his eyes, and the space magic was activated.

A dazzling light lit up, then dimmed, and the surrounding scene became completely different, turning into a fragmented palace with countless huge fragments floating in the dark void.

The gravity here seems to be disrupted, making it difficult to distinguish up and down, left and right, front and back, as if you are in space.

There were constant vibrations and roars coming from a huge piece of palace debris, and the complex and chaotic energy fluctuations spread like a tsunami. There was no doubt that the main battlefield was there.

[The mission objective is there, but now you have to solve the upcoming troubles first. 】

Click.

The piece of palace debris where Zhou Yuan and the other two were standing suddenly cracked and broke into three precise pieces. Each piece carried a person and flew rapidly towards the distance like a meteorite.

In the blink of an eye, the three of them were separated, so far away that they couldn't even see each other's location.

"Want to defeat them one by one?"

Zhou Yuan felt the energy fluctuations coming from afar just now. Someone had deliberately separated them.

call out!
An arrow wrapped in gray light suddenly flew in the air. Zhou Yuan reacted instantly and exerted force with his feet. With a loud bang, the fragments of the palace under his feet exploded into countless pieces and flew out in a splashing shape.

He ricocheted onto another piece of palace debris, and a second arrow broke through the air.

The arrow was extremely powerful and could blast the palace fragments into pieces with one strike. However, Zhou Yuan was faster and used his speed advantage to dodge among the fragments. He soon found the guy who shot the arrow.

However, when he saw the enemy's appearance clearly, he was stunned.

The cold and smooth black metal armor covers the whole body. The reactor on the chest shines brightly, releasing energy comparable to the sun every second. The engines on the shoulders, back, calves and soles of the feet spray flames to help the wearer fly steadily in this space with disordered gravity.

It held a crossbow in its hand, and as the bowstring was pulled, black arrows automatically gathered, with the arrowheads sharp and flashing a dangerous black light.

[This is one of the guards of the Ghost Market Lord's mansion. Its current combat power is approximately equal to that of a 4th-order extraordinary person. The iron armor on its body was given by the Ghost Market Lord's mentor. There are nearly a hundred guards like this.

The crossbow it holds is a broken magic weapon of perfect quality. The arrows it shoots are as heavy as mountains. It is best not to be hit. 】

Damn, Iron Man + Hawkeye?

Zhou Yuan was a little confused for a moment. Isn't this a fantasy world? Isn't this the territory of a group of evil spirits? Why did the iron armor come out?

There's something a little off about the style of the painting.
