Seeking Immortality

"What mission?" Xu Qingfan asked.

"About ten days ago, a team composed of several small sects chased some beastly monks into a hidden valley. Unexpectedly, there were a large number of beastly monks in the valley. Among them There was no shortage of people who had reached the pill-forming stage. In the end, only one monk in the team escaped by chance. In the end, according to our judgment, that valley should be one of the sources of the Ying-infected Beast Mania that you killed back then. But I don’t know why I gave up again.”

Having said this, Zhang Hualing frowned and continued: "One day ago, Qing Lingzi sent a letter to me, saying that he wanted the mixed team you led, the Ciyun Temple team, to go to the valley to destroy it. Those beastly monks. I didn’t expect that you would encounter something like this again, so I agreed.”

Xu Qingfan pondered for a while, nodded and said: "It's just an action. Postponing the retreat time for a while will not affect the overall situation. However, if the valley is the source of the spread of beast madness before Ying, it will be extremely troublesome."

As he said that, Xu Qingfan frowned, but he remembered the battle with Ying that year. Xu Qingfan's Jiuhua team, plus the other two teams, deliberately and unintentionally designed the Xingyin Sect team as bait. There were still heavy losses. Because of this, Xu Qingfan felt a little apprehensive when he heard that he was going to destroy a source of "beast madness" with two teams.

"But I don't know how many beast-crazed monks there are in that valley? How many beast-crazed monks have reached the elixir-forming stage?" Xu Qingfan asked.

Zhang Hualing shook his head and said: "The monk who escaped only knew that there were a large number of beastly monks in the valley, but how many there were in total and how many had reached the elixir formation stage, but he was focused on escaping and did not take a closer look."

Seeing Xu Qingfan's frown, Zhang Hualing said with relief: "Don't worry, I'm not sending you to that valley this time to fight against those beast-killing cultivators with the strength of two teams. But to let you and the Ciyun Temple team Just put up a barrier on the outside of the valley to prevent those beastly monks from escaping, and spread the sadness into the valley."

"Sangxin Powder" is one of the more insidious drugs in the world of consciousness and immortality. If a mortal or a low-level person is exposed to it, he will lose his mind and attack all the living creatures around him crazily. This drug is very harmful to those beasts. For the crazy monk. The effect is particularly obvious, and even the bestiality monks in the elixir-formation stage cannot avoid its influence.

During the chaos of the Beast Mania in the world of cultivators, the cultivators relied on the influence of barrier confinement and "Sangxin Powder" to make those beast maniac monks kill each other. He finally survived that catastrophe, but this time, because of the sudden arrival of the beastly monk. The distribution is scattered, so "Sangxin Powder" is rarely used.

After hearing what Zhang Hualing said, Xu Qingfan felt slightly relieved. and nodded in agreement.

only. Although the task of just setting up the barrier and releasing "Sangxin Powder" was not difficult, Xu Qingfan still felt that something was wrong in his heart. After all, he knew nothing about the valley. How many beastly monks are there? What about strength? Also, since that valley was the source of "Beast Maniac Monks" created by "Ying" back then, why did it suddenly give up? Furthermore, the "Beast-Crazy Monks" were aggressive by nature, so why did they gather in that valley and never come out?

Just like many questions in the world, it is just a question. Just thinking about it in your mind cannot get the answer.

"However, if you just spread your sorrow into that valley and set up a barrier outside the valley, there shouldn't be any problem, right?"

Xu Qingfan thought to himself, thinking this way. But he felt that he had made too much fuss over those previous doubts.

"After this mission is completed, I will tell all the leaders that the team you lead will take a year or two to recuperate and exchange missions with the monks who stayed in Ronghua Mountain. After all, you have led the team to make meritorious deeds in the past seven years. Quite a lot. If they don’t get a long rest, the leaders won’t have any reason to object.”

Seeing Xu Qingfan nodding in agreement, Zhang Hualing said slowly.

Seeing that Zhang Hualing just talked to himself for a while and thought about some questions, the fatigue in his expression became even deeper. Xu Qingfan knew that it was because Zhang Hualing was fighting against the evil energy that invaded his mind all the time, so he also No more interruptions. When all the problems were discussed and solutions were discussed, Xu Qingfan said nothing more and bowed to leave.

Zhang Hualing didn't hold back or say much. He just watched silently as Xu Qingfan bowed and Xu Qingfan retreated. When the courtyard door closed, Zhang Hualing suddenly sighed silently, but didn't know it was because of Xu Qingfan's growth? Or was it because of his own exhaustion and weakness?

Outside the hospital, Xu Qingfan took another look at Zhang Hualing's soul bead, only to find that compared to last time, the soul bead was still mainly blue, but among the blue, the blood streaks were much darker than when he last looked at it. There were a few more. Although the progress was slow, the blood streaks had been slowly increasing over the years, and gradually became one. Thinking of Zhang Hualing's soul-deep exhaustion in the courtyard, Xu Qingfan couldn't help but sigh. It vaguely echoed the sigh coming from the courtyard.

But I wonder if these two sighs can also be regarded as a handover?

Shaking his head, Xu Qingfan raised auspicious clouds at his feet and flew towards the room arranged for him by the Righteous Alliance. In the courtyard, Zhang Hualing closed his eyes and continued to fight against the evil energy that constantly invaded his mind.

Many decisions made unintentionally can often affect many things, from the mood of the next moment to the survival of countless creatures in distant places.

At the moment when Xu Qingfan put the jade pendant given to him by Zhang Hualing on Xiao Jin's neck, in the distant southern wilderness, not far from the prosperous Middle Earth, the various monsters that were galloping towards the "Ronghua Mountain" stopped their galloping bodies after seeing the leading monsters stop. Although there was some confusion, they were disciplined and acted like a human army! !

Looking at the leading monsters again, they were of different shapes, some were hundreds of feet tall with green faces and fangs, some were small and cute, and some had wings covering the sky with golden feathers and iron claws, but each of them exuded an extremely amazing aura, and their strength was not inferior to those of the Mahayana cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation. As they looked back, the beasts crawled in fear.

Obviously, these monsters with different appearances are the heavenly monsters that have become legendary in the world of immortal cultivation. After retreating to the south of the Southern Wilderness for tens of thousands of years, they finally reappeared in the world again! !

A moment later, three or two powerful monsters that seemed to be holding the line in the rear came to the front of the formation. The might of the eleven heavenly monsters combined made the countless monsters behind them unable to stand up. The flying monsters in the sky also felt that the gravity of the earth increased sharply, and they were no longer able to flap their wings. They fell to the ground fiercely, but they did not dare to show any dissatisfaction. They just lowered their heads in awe like those ground monsters.

Although the scene of thousands of beasts bowing was amazing, these heavenly monsters did not even look at it, as if it was a very common thing for them.

However, looking at those heavenly monsters, as powerful as they were, they actually had a look of doubt and even panic. With an unbelievable look in his eyes, he looked at a small monster beast like a squirrel in suspicion. This monster beast had been running ahead of all the beasts before. It was the best at tracking and had the most sensitive spiritual sense among the eleven heavenly monster beasts.

It is said that when a monster beast reaches the heavenly level, it will have spiritual intelligence that is no less than that of humans. Now it seems that this rumor is likely to be true.

After these heavenly monster beasts gathered together, eagles roared, tigers howled, and wolves howled. The eleven monster beasts kept making their own sounds, and with the anxious and suspicious look, it seemed as if some humans were arguing about the decision of something.

From time to time, these heavenly monster beasts would call some monster beasts who were good at finding six sensitive senses in the herd to explore something. Once those monster beasts did not find it, they would be slapped to death.

However, although these monster beasts had developed spiritual intelligence that was no less than that of humans, the world of beasts was originally a world of strength. There was no reason that whoever had the strongest power was right. This time, however, the monsters obviously had two opinions. Because of their equal strength, no one could convince the other.

During the quarrel, a heavenly-class monster that looked like a cow but was countless times larger than a cow seemed to be in a hurry. It roared loudly, turned around suddenly, and sprayed a blue sea of ​​fire that covered the sky and the earth at the beasts behind it. In the sea of ​​fire, the monsters howled miserably, but did not dare to fight back at all.

With just one blow, hundreds of monsters died in the sea of ​​fire, leaving no bones behind, including earth-class and even high-level earth-class monsters.

After spraying such a flame, the anger of the cow-shaped monster seemed to have subsided a lot. Then, with a loud roar, it led about half of the monsters to run towards the vast land of Shenzhou. There were four other heavenly-class monsters with him.

But these monsters did not want to run towards the direction of "Ronghua Mountain" like the group of beasts before, but dispersed, and each heavenly-class monster led a large number of monsters and ran in different directions.

The remaining six heavenly-level monsters, led by a nine-tailed fox, continued to rush towards "Ronghua Mountain".
