Lonely Immortal

Chapter 669: The story of the pilgrim

But these are not the most important things. There are some very important things here, which are also what Zhang Zhiwen needs to be vigilant about. For example, Lin Jingyuan is a threat in itself, which is also worth being vigilant about.

Lin Jingyuan has Zhang Zhiwen's handle in his hand, and he can report Zhang Zhiwen at any time. Although Lin Jingyuan can't kill Zhang Zhiwen, if Lin Jingyuan just reports it, will Zhang Zhiwen have any good results?

In addition, Lin Jingyuan and his people want him to go to Zhao Wangfu as an undercover. As we all know, being an undercover never ends well. What kind of place is Zhao Wangfu? Any servant may be an ancient Yuanying cultivator, or even an ancient Mahayana cultivator. If a Mahayana cultivator comes, then just a breath is enough to destroy Zhang Zhiwen, not to mention the two-star and three-star official immortals in Zhao Wangfu, they are all ancient Daohun cultivators in the Mahayana period, and the Immortal King himself may even be a master of the God Transformation Period.

Zhang Zhiwen is just a mid-stage Jindan cultivator. What can he use to fight against the monsters in Zhao Wangfu? The monsters can lurk in Zhao Wangfu. You can imagine how terrifying their strength is, right?

Therefore, Zhang Zhiwen knows how dangerous this trip is without thinking too much. Would the monsters in Zhao Wangfu not know why Zhang Zhiwen went to Zhao Wangfu to work? The recommendation letter was left by Chen Zhouzhu. In other words, if Zhang Zhiwen accepted this task and went to Zhao Wangfu, he would be a confidant of Chen Zhouzhu. It was obvious where Zhang Zhiwen came from. Even if Zhang Zhiwen didn't even know who Chen Zhouzhu was or what he looked like, he was given the title of a member of the alliance to eliminate monsters.

What kind of undercover can he be? Isn't this going to die?

Also, even if Zhang Zhiwen went, would he dare to expose the so-called holy body? Wouldn't that clearly tell the monsters lurking in Zhao Wangfu that Zhang Zhiwen was going after them? What's the difference between that and seeking death?

With Zhang Zhiwen's current strength, he can't even beat the ancient Dao Soul cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage. This is just the strength of the low-level official immortals. Any of the middle-level and high-level official immortals can kill Zhang Zhiwen more than a hundred times.

In addition, which of these official immortals doesn't master various weapons? This is still the Nascent Soul stage. What if it is a Mahayana stage? What kind of terrifying magic weapons do they have in their hands? What about the God Transformation stage? In addition to magic weapons, there are also various magic pills and medicines, various powerful secrets and methods...

Zhang Zhiwen is very clear that he is just an ant on Wanxian Island, an insignificant existence. Although he now has the qualifications of the Great Dao, he is still too weak. Fighting a low-level cultivator and killing a Jindan cultivator is no problem, but once he encounters a cultivator above the Nascent Soul stage, he will be finished.

After all, his strength is still too weak, and the most depressing thing is that he has encountered a bottleneck in his impact on the late Jindan stage. Otherwise, he can still barely fight against the ancient Dao soul cultivators in the Yuanying stage.

But even so, it seems to be of no use. How many ancient Dao soul cultivators in the Yuanying stage are there in this huge Xian Dynasty? There are a lot of them at random, such as the cultivators at the level of the Mansion Lord, and even the cultivators at the level of the County Lord. They are all Yuanying masters of the ancient Dao soul. This is a random count of trillions. In addition, there are official immortals above the state lord, which are all intermediate-level official immortals. Many of these official immortals are masters of the Mahayana stage, and their Dao souls are also ancient Dao souls. How can Zhang Zhiwen be their opponent?

Zhang Zhiwen was really puzzled. These people obviously have ancient Dao souls. They want to save the Xian Dynasty, so they go to kill monsters. Isn’t it ridiculous to force him, a cultivator with Jindan cultivation, to kill monsters?

This is simply using him as cannon fodder, but what can Zhang Zhiwen do? Zhang Zhiwen even feels that he is definitely not the only one sent to be an undercover agent. Even many Jindan cultivators who were sent to be undercover agents probably have no good ending in the end.

But now, Zhang Zhiwen has no choice. He has to go, otherwise Lin Jingyuan will turn against him immediately. People like Lin Jingyuan don't care who lives or dies, he just cares about the survival of the Immortal Dynasty. It's useless to reason with such a person. Going to Lin Jingyuan seems to be quite polite on the surface, but who knows what he thinks in his heart?

Zhang Zhiwen couldn't help but take a deep breath. He felt that he was about to face all kinds of troubles, and he had no clue for the time being. He still had to go to the so-called Zhao Wangfu to see what the situation was before deciding what to do next.

So, Zhang Zhiwen set off.

The old man Lin Jingyuan actually saw Zhang Zhiwen off in person. It was clear that he had bad intentions. He looked smiling, but he didn't bring anything with him. He just said a few nice words, saying that as long as Zhang Zhiwen could find the monster in Zhao Wangfu, he would be honored to ascend the Golden Palace and meet the emperor.

Zhang Zhiwen didn't bother to pay attention to him. He knew that this trip was a life-or-death journey, so he flew away from the government office.

The Southern Dynasty was extremely vast. It took Zhang Zhiwen more than a month to fly from the county office to the government office. Now, from the government office, across several large state offices, all the way north, Zhang Zhiwen flew for half a year, but he still didn't reach Zhao Wangfu.

The Prince Zhao's Palace is really far away, but the land along the way is all the Southern Dynasty's territory, which is extremely vast. There are also a lot of cultivators, and cultivators from all walks of life and from all palaces come and go. The monsters outside have almost been hunted down and killed. Zhang Zhiwen suddenly felt that these monsters were not really a threat. They were just a group of poor animals that were left to be hunted by humans.

On the contrary, it was the monster that was the most terrifying, and the monsters were actually transformed from humans, which was very different from his original cognition. Zhang Zhiwen originally thought that these monsters should be transformed from monsters, but in fact they were not.

Monsters will not become humans. They are monsters, at most they will continue to become stronger and bigger, breaking through the void and leaving, but monsters are not like that. Monsters have human souls and have been human in the past, but they are infected by the evil spirit in the murder weapon and eventually become monsters.

This monster can hide, and didn’t Zhang Zhiwen kill the strange beast in the mining area before? The strange beast is actually the lowest level monster. The newly transformed monster loses its mind and kills people indiscriminately.

After flying for half a year, Zhang Zhiwen gradually calmed down. It was inevitable that he would go to Zhao Wangfu, but he didn’t have to take the recommendation letter given to him by Lin Jingyuan to work in Zhao Wangfu, otherwise he would definitely die.

He had to go to the Zhao Palace alone and seek refuge in the Zhao Palace in other ways. His identity was a nine-star official immortal from the Lin Palace. It was not uncommon for him to come from the Lin Palace. There were at least 80,000 cultivators in the palace. When would they care about a cultivator like Zhang Zhiwen?

This Immortal Dynasty was so big that unless Zhang Zhiwen took the recommendation letter from the Lord of Chenzhou to seek refuge in the Zhao Palace, it was basically unlikely that his identity would be recognized and his intentions would be exposed.

So, in essence, he also sought refuge in the Zhao Palace. When he entered the Zhao Palace, he would just send his identity to Lin Jingyuan to see. How would Lin Jingyuan know whether he entered the Zhao Palace with a recommendation letter?

Therefore, this method must be feasible and relatively safe. This is to deal with the problem flexibly. You can't be stubborn, otherwise you will definitely die.

Besides, if Zhang Zhiwen entered the Zhao Palace, Lin Jingyuan would probably ask him to find out what news he wanted. This was bound to happen, but Zhang Zhiwen still had the initiative at this time, because Lin Jingyuan didn't know what happened in the Zhao Palace. Zhang Zhiwen could report whatever he wanted, and Lin Jingyuan didn't know whether it was true or false.

In this way, Zhang Zhiwen would be a little safer, at least he didn't have to let Lin Jingyuan lead him by the nose, otherwise the risk would be too great.

Then there was the matter of transformation. He was in the Zhao Palace, so he couldn't transform casually, otherwise he would be dead. The monster knew what he was at a glance. Lin Jingyuan didn't know the tricks, but Zhang Zhiwen knew very well that he was a reincarnated soul and could clearly sense the monster, and the monster could also clearly sense him.

Unless he hides his presence, hides in the Zhao Palace, maybe after a few years, he can get some insignificant news to deal with Lin Jingyuan, and then he can get rid of Lin Jingyuan's entanglement, because by that time, Lin Jingyuan still said something about theft, then Zhang Zhiwen doesn't have to worry too much, it's been so long, he can't catch Lin Jingyuan's handle, for example, didn't Lin Jingyuan let him lurk in Zhao Palace? That itself is an act of rebellion, but it is also a capital crime!

With these checks and balances, Zhang Zhiwen can move forward and backward more freely at that time. He guessed that Lin Jingyuan actually knew this. Lin Jingyuan just used him for a few years, and then got some information, and then he could think of a way to deal with the monster lurking in Zhao Palace.

And!

Zhang Zhiwen felt that this was not just for the so-called saving of the Immortal Dynasty. It must involve the struggle of various forces. Otherwise, with Lin Jingyuan, who barely reached the middle level, he would not have the qualifications and strength to challenge any big monster.

There must be a very large force behind Lin Jingyuan, and this force must have infiltrated the Immortal Dynasty in various ways. Their purpose of capturing the big monster is more than that? Is it really for the so-called saving of the Immortal Dynasty? I am afraid that Lin Jingyuan is also a target of use.

Of course, Zhang Zhiwen did not think too much about these things because he knew limited things, but for now, his plan was still feasible, so Zhang Zhiwen was relieved. Otherwise, he would be sending himself to death if he went to Zhao Wangfu, or even let the big monster catch him and refine the human pill, which would definitely not be able to escape!

Suddenly, Zhang Zhiwen felt that he was really a bit desolate. He had been trying to survive in all kinds of adversities all his life, overcoming all kinds of obstacles along the way. He had never had a day of glory. He was trembling with fear most of the time. He felt that the strength was really important. Unfortunately, if he wanted to improve his strength, he would inevitably be involved in these disputes and then encounter various extremely dangerous situations.

Zhang Zhiwen sighed slightly. He fell from the sky. Below was a county town. He planned to rest here for a while. Moreover, this place was not far from the Zhao Wang Mansion. It was only a month's journey.

After coming down, he found an inn. This county town was not big. It was not much different from the county government office where he had stayed before. The cultivators in the county government office came in and out, busy and sloppy all their lives. The people outside the county government office were also busy and sloppy all their lives.

The inns outside were all controlled by the official immortals. They looked prosperous and lively, but in fact, they were all controlled by the official immortals and the official immortals. They still wanted to kill all the monsters in the world? Isn't this still the world full of monsters?

Although these common people are born in the Qi Refining stage, in this Wanxian Island, humans in the Qi Refining stage are even more of a tonic in the eyes of monsters.

Zhang Zhiwen sometimes thinks of some strange things, such as when he was young, he followed the private school teacher in the county town to learn secretly. He read some ancient books, which also wrote about monsters and even stories about people who went to seek scriptures.

At that time, Zhang Zhiwen felt very strange. Is the flesh and blood of mortals so delicious? Why did a monster slaughter tens of millions of mortals in the mountains occupied by a monster? What is the difference between those mortals and pigs and dogs? What benefits can these monsters get from eating these people?

And I heard that the flesh and blood of mortals is actually dirtier and less delicious. Why do monsters like to eat people so much?

At first, he was very confused. He felt that this was clearly imagined by mortals. There was no basis at all. It was just to deliberately discredit monsters and exaggerate so that the government could better control the people. Otherwise, the people would not be afraid.

All these things, now it seems, are not so simple. The so-called mortals are not mortals at all, but are born in the Qi Refining Stage. Even after a few years of growth, they will naturally reach the Foundation Building Stage. Once the foundation is built, the foundation is there, the spiritual roots are there, and the monsters will naturally like to eat them, and eating them is also a great tonic.

Therefore, those ancient books are not talking about things in the secular world, but things in the world of cultivation. In this way, all this makes sense.

So now, where is the pilgrim? Where is the great sage who slays demons and eliminates monsters? This may be a fantasy of beautiful expectations in people's hearts?

As Zhang Zhiwen walked into the inn, he couldn't help but think of these messy things, and then he found a seat by the window and sat down. There were quite a few people in the inn, coming and going, all kinds of people, and they seemed to come from all over the place. These people were also discussing some things, and they were quite devoted. Zhang Zhiwen couldn't help but listen attentively.

"Hey, have you heard that the Zhao Wang Mansion is going to recruit a group of servants recently!"

"Oh? Are you serious?"

"Of course, otherwise, why do you see so many people coming here recently?"

"Hey, the palace is the palace, it is still relatively open-minded, as long as you are a Lixian, you can participate in the recruitment!"

"Yes, this is different from other places. Some government offices and state offices do not want Lixian below seven stars, and even require Lixian above six stars to recruit!"

...

Zhang Zhiwen did not expect that it was such a coincidence that the Zhao Wang Mansion actually publicly recruited servants, but he soon found out that the Zhao Wang Mansion recruited servants every year, and he just happened to rush here when the recruitment was about to start this month.
