Chronicles of Celestial Origins

The dark sky and earth were shrouded in gloomy clouds and mist, and a blood moon hung high in the sky. From time to time, several cold and shrill howls of ghosts and wolves were heard between the sky and the earth.

On the side of the peak that towers like clouds, groups of tall skeleton guards patrol back and forth. Their bodies are uniform and uniform, like a well-trained army.

Within the peak, a skeleton soldier with a body as black as ink and blue ghost fire in his eyes led a human man wearing a large black robe to cover his figure to a pool of water as red as blood.

The skeleton soldier commander in front turned around and faced the man in a wide black robe. The green and blue will-o'-the-wisps suddenly jumped violently in his eyes.

The man seemed to have received some message. He took off the black hat covering his head and revealed his true appearance. He was clearly Jin Tang.

It's just that at this time, his face was extremely ferocious and terrifying. Most of the flesh and blood on his face had disappeared, exposing the white bones. The remaining half was like pieces of dried meat, sticking to his face, as if it would fall off when the wind blew. .

Two eyes, one of which has completely disappeared.

As for the other eye, the flesh and blood has also disappeared, leaving only an eyeball rotating in the bone socket, which looks extremely terrifying.

When he took off his black robe, his naked body was exposed, but all the flesh and blood on his body had melted away, leaving only a thin layer of skin adhering to it, and it was faintly visible that the white bones inside had turned black.

A look of determination flashed in Jintang's eyes, and without saying a word, he jumped into the blood-red water.

In an instant, the entire pool of blood seemed to turn into hot molten lava and boil.

Jintang was in the middle, wrapped in boiling blood, with a look of extreme distortion and pain on his face. His bone-white mouth opened wide, and he let out a shrill roar. His whole body slowly melted into the boiling blood, and he sank from top to bottom. In the meantime.

I don’t know how long it took, it could be a few days, a month, or a few months. The boiling and surging blood gradually returned to calm. At this time, the water level in the pool had dropped a lot visibly to the naked eye. Jintang’s body slowly rose from the level of the pool water. Floating out, the thin layer of skin covering his body and the sticky flesh on his face had all faded away, leaving only a set of dead bones as black as ink, exuding a bright luster.

The skeleton soldier guarding the edge of the pool fished him out of the water and carried him away from the place. He came to another spooky cave, where the gloomy energy was shrouded and condensed into a solid black color. Smoke surrounds.

The skeleton soldier placed his body on a crystal clear jade bed and left the place immediately.

Within the jade bed, traces of white gas penetrated into his pitch-black bones, and the surrounding black smoke seemed to be driven by something, rushing towards his body like a swarm.

Jintang lay quietly on it, and green flames suddenly appeared in his empty eyes. As time passed, the green flames became stronger and stronger, and his body became darker and darker.

At a certain moment, the green flames in his eyes seemed to be completely ignited, beating violently in his eye sockets. At the same time, Jintang suddenly sat up straight, looked around blankly, then raised his hands and stared for a long time, The green flames in his eyes stopped beating, and he jumped off the jade bed and strode outside.

After leaving the cave, a skeleton soldier seemed to be waiting outside. After the green light in the eyes of the two skeletons jumped for a while, they immediately rose into the sky and came to a majestic and majestic hall.

Inside, a green-faced and ferocious ghost with fangs was lying in a magic circle emitting dazzling light. Two skeletons knelt down on one knee and lowered their heads until the light from the magic circle disappeared.

The ghost general stood up slowly. His whole body was covered with black scales, as if he was wearing an outer armor. He looked majestic. His eyes glowed red, and he heard a low roar from his mouth. The two skeletons immediately raised their heads. He raised his head, and green flames jumped in his eyes.

At the same time, all the skeletons on the entire mountain seemed to have received the signal. They all stopped for a moment and looked up to the top of the mountain, with flames flickering in their eyes.

………

In front of the majestic and majestic cave where the Tenth Legion was stationed, two rays of light shot down, revealing the figures of two people, Tang Ning and Liu Ruhan.

Not long after waiting outside, someone inside quickly walked out and invited the two people into the inner room.

"Disciple pays homage to Master Uncle Wang." In the spacious and bright hall, seeing Wang Jingxing entering from the outside, the two of them stood up and bowed to him.

"No need to be polite, please take a seat!" Wang Jingxing smiled and waved his hand after the host took his seat.

The two of them sat down as they were told. Liu Ruhan's red lips were slightly opened and her voice was clear and clear: "Today, my disciples and my husband took the liberty of disturbing me to express their gratitude to Master Uncle Wang for taking care of me. Without Master Uncle's care, I would not have been able to be promoted to the deputy captain of the column, so I came here to express my gratitude." , I am harassing Qing Xiu, but I still hope for Haihan.”

"Some trivial matters are not worth mentioning, so there is no need to say more. Tang Ning has always performed well in the headquarters. Last time when Yuanxian County broke out, she killed an enemy monk who was practicing void refining. There are so many incompetent people in the headquarters who have been promoted. What’s more, he is a disciple of the sect, how can we not reuse him?"

"Thank you for your care, uncle. This disciple came to bother me this time because he was actually ordered by my master. I met with my master a few days ago and talked about it. When we talked about my husband, she mentioned you and knew that I was promoted by you. Vice-captain, I asked my husband and I to come and thank you."

Wang Jingxing said with a smile: "Uncle Nangong is too polite. She has so many things to do every day, but she still takes care of these small things. Please report back to Uncle Nangong for me. Don't worry, I will never treat Tangning badly as I am in the Tenth Army. It's a pity that he has not yet cultivated enough." That’s enough. If he reaches the middle stage of cultivation, I can legitimately promote him to captain of the tenth column.”

"Why do disciples dare to take on the position of column captain? I don't know how I can repay my uncle's support. I can only do my best on the battlefield in the future and kill more enemy troops to repay the favor." Tang Ning interrupted at the right time.

He brought Liu Ruhan to visit this time, of course, not under Nangong Muxue's order. How could Nangong Muxue specially order Liu Ruhan to come and thank him for such a trivial thing?

They came here this time actually to deal with monsters. This could only be done with the approval of the legion commander. Otherwise, it would not be so easy for him as the deputy captain of the column.

Even if the column independently defends the position and repels the Mubei demon attack, it is not his turn to deal with the corpses of the monsters obtained by cleaning the battlefield. There are inspectors and captains on the column, so it is impossible for him to just hand it over to the merchant just because he said it would be sold to the merchant. Merchant.

It would be different if he had the support of the legion commander. If a large-scale war broke out in the future and the legion was cleaning the battlefield, if he could take charge of this matter, he could legitimately handle the corpses of the monsters.

That's why he brought Liu Ruhan and used Nangong Muxue's tiger skin as a banner.

Wang Jingxing was originally a disciple of Taixuan Sect and a backbone of the master-disciple line. He belonged to the same branch as Nangong Muxue, so it was unlikely that he would not sell her this face.

It was precisely because of this relationship that Tangning had the confidence to go to merchants to discuss cooperation matters.

When Shang Daoxian found him before, he was also interested in his relationship with Su Yuanhua, thinking that when the column independently defended the position, it could hand over the corpse of the monster to the merchant for disposal.

At that time, Wang Jingxing was only the deputy captain of the legion and did not have the ability to decide who would clean the battlefield. Now that he has been promoted to the commander of the legion, he has the authority to handle all matters on the battlefield.

"Okay." Wang Jingxing listened to his words and nodded with a smile: "As expected of Master Nangong's favorite disciple-in-law. Not only is he extraordinary in ability, but his spirit is also commendable. If all the disciples of the sect are like you, why worry about the demons of the north? The trouble is unfair.”

Obviously, he didn't know that Tang Ning and Liu Ruhan were married at the fingertips and got married at a young age.

"Uncle Master is so complimentary that I, as a disciple, cannot live up to it."

"By the way, has Senior Brother Ling's injury gotten better now?"

"Senior Brother Su is still recuperating from his injuries. Although his injuries have improved, he has not yet recovered. The last time the disciples and his wife went to visit and talked about the current situation of the 10th Legion, they learned that his uncle was safe and sound and was promoted to commander of the legion. He asked us to speak for him. He said hello to his uncle," Liu Ruhan responded. Although the two of them had decided to draw a clear line between themselves and Su Yuanhua in private, they would naturally not reveal it in front of outsiders.

"Senior Brother Ling is a strong general in our headquarters. He is resourceful and has outstanding abilities. Now every one of the people in the column under the Tenth Army can compare with Senior Brother Ling. When he recovers from his injury, I will propose to the coalition forces to transfer him back to the headquarters. Such talents cannot be snatched away by others.”

Tang Ning then said, "Senior Brother Su must be very happy. He always said that my uncle is generous and tolerant, and he takes special care of the disciples of the sect. It is a blessing for the disciples of this sect to be able to serve under my uncle."

Wang Jingxing smiled slightly, taking advantage of these words. He looked at Liu Ruhan and said, "Where are you serving now? Is it with Master Nangong?"

"The disciple has been serving in the Fourth Army Corps of Qingwu Camp and has not joined the coalition. The last time I heard that the coalition army was going to recruit monks from Donglai County sects and aristocratic families on a large scale, the disciple had approached his family teacher and hoped to be transferred to the 10th Army of the 10th Army. Column, together with Zhuofu fight against the Mubei demon, the master also agreed to this matter, but in the end the order was transferred, but there was no name as a disciple. "

"Youdao means that a husband and wife work together as one, and they can cut through gold. If you also come to the tenth column of our headquarters, the husband and wife work together to fight against the Mubei demon. It may become a good story in the future. But staying in Qingwu Camp is safer than being in the coalition army. That’s always a good thing.”

The three of them chatted for a while. When Tangning saw that the time was almost up, she said, "Disciple came here today to ask for something else. Please tell me, please don't blame me, Master."

"It doesn't matter. It doesn't hurt to speak up if you have anything to say."

Tang Ning said, "That's right. A few days ago, merchants in Zuozong County asked their disciples to provide them with some corpses of monsters so that they can refine spiritual wine and spiritual food. Because the Mubei demons occupied Zuozong County, they The industry is shrinking on a large scale and the supply of raw materials is seriously insufficient.”

"In the early years, the disciple had contacts with the monks who were responsible for this aspect of the business, so they approached the disciple and begged him to provide them with some corpses of monsters."

"How can a disciple accomplish such a thing with his abilities? But if he has the support of his uncle, this matter will be easy. If we come to Japan to face the attack of Mubei monsters, there will definitely be a large number of monster corpses left on the battlefield. The merchants are opening The price offered is not low. If my uncle agrees to this matter, I am willing to do my best."

Wang Jingxing heard this and said calmly: "This matter! Let me think about it. No one can predict the situation on the battlefield. Cleaning the battlefield to collect the corpses of monsters is an opportunity that only the winner has. You have to fight first. Let’s talk about winning the battle.”

"Yes, this is what the disciple told the merchant. They said that whenever we are willing to provide monsters, they can pay the corresponding price for the spirit stones at any time."

"Let's talk about this later!" Wang Jingxing still did not make his position clear.

Seeing his attitude, Tangning stopped talking about this topic and changed the subject to the battle situation between the coalition forces and Mubei.

After chatting for a while, the two stood up and left.
