General Baiyun has a delicate appearance and is very thin in armor, but no one dares to underestimate the power contained in his body. His contract object was a white umbrella with a pattern of wandering clouds and wild cranes on it. As a hybrid contractor, he actually mastered the ability to fly in the Xuan Realm. He was a master among masters, so he was able to rush to the scene as soon as possible.
"The fire burned the mountain, and it burned so completely that not a single flame was left. Did an expert in the Fire Pact Spiritual Realm take action?" General Baiyun swallowed his saliva as he looked at the half black and half green mountaintop.
"Wake up!" Gu Bai fed Cheng Lu a pill to restore mental strength, and the latter woke up soon after.
"Is this? General Baiyun? Am I dead?" Cheng Lu sat up with confusion on his face.
"And my hand?" Cheng Lu looked at her hand and then at her unscathed body. Even the armor on her body was in good condition, with no knife marks left. "That's not right. I've obviously been hit by more than ten knives. No, where is my realm? Haven't I broken through to the mysterious realm?"
Looking at Cheng Lu who was in confusion, Gu Bai asked at the side: "Don't worry, what happened?"
"No! Zhan Yue is in danger, where are the others?" Cheng Lu suddenly remembered Zhan Yue and was about to move but was held down by Gu Bai.
"Where is there anyone around here? I have already checked. I am afraid that a war broke out in that mountain forest before. The whereabouts of the soldier you mentioned are unknown. He may have died in the battle, and his body was burned to ashes. Of course, it is also possible that He was taken away by others." Gu Bai said.
"Is life or death uncertain?" Cheng Lu looked at the green and black hills not far away, and was also shocked. What happened after he passed out? No matter how strong the assassin is, he can't make such a move. Has anyone else taken action? If he came to save Zhan Yue, Zhan Yue's life would probably be safe. If he came to kill Zhan Yue, I'm afraid Zhan Yue would really turn into ashes at this moment.
"Based on your previous descriptions of a big battle, a breakthrough in battle, and a severed hand, I have thought of a possibility. You are probably under an illusion, and all of this is your illusion." Gu Bai analyzed rationally.
"Illusion?" Cheng Lu frowned. Illusion can explain everything before, but is that sense of reality really an illusion? But if it weren't for illusion, there seemed to be no other more reasonable explanation.
"Let's go, they are still waiting for you." Gu Bai helped Cheng Lu up and opened the umbrella, which then dragged the two of them into the air. Gu Bai is the general stationed at Shanheyi. He is usually responsible for guarding the teleportation formation, so his strength is naturally extraordinary.
"Is it true that there is no trace of Brother Zhan?" Cheng Lu looked guilty, "Before I came out, I swore to keep him safe, but the result is that life or death is uncertain? Alas..."
"Who are you, Brother Zhan, to think that a master of the Yue Xuan Realm came to assassinate him? He is only at the third level of Qi Ling." Gu Bai was full of curiosity.
Cheng Lu shook her head and said she didn't know.
"I hope he will be as lucky as before this time." Cheng Lu could only pray in his heart. After all, he knew that the soldier rescued by the saint last time was Zhan Yue.
However, Zhan Yue was in an unexpectedly good mood while walking alone in the mountains and forests.
"The sea is wide enough for fish to jump, and the mountains are high enough for birds to fly. Such a life might not be bad." Escaping a fatal assassination made Zhan Yue more cautious. What's more, after he punched explosively before, he vaguely understood the second stage of "Fire King's Boom" - Lihuo Stage. But Zhan Yue punched out, and a fireball was produced out of thin air. Along with the wind of the fist, it bombarded the stone not far away, leaving a scorched black mark on the big stone.
"Is this the Lihuo Realm? I also have the means to attack from a distance. The combat skills have advanced so smoothly, but it's a pity that there is no movement in my realm. I am still at the third level of the Spiritual Contract." Zhan Yue said regretfully.
"Who makes you so special? One of your contract objects involves the way of time and space. I have never heard of the techniques of time and space. The other is me. It cannot be defined. There is no suitable technique for you to practice. Naturally, it's very slow." The Tongming Goddess explained that Zhan Yue had already told her about another contract object of hers and its corresponding abilities.
"Let's take it one step at a time. Now I'm at least worthy of being an opponent at the ninth level of Qi Ling." Zhan Yue was not in a hurry, and there was no point in being anxious.
"Where are you going?"
Zhan Yue took out a wooden sign from the storage ring, "This is the sign left to me by Her Royal Highness the Princess. With this sign, you can enter the Empire's First United College. It sounds very powerful. I plan to learn it." If I change my name and live in the academy, I don't believe that the thief can find me."
"It's okay, do you really have no clue about this assassination?" the goddess of transparency asked with concern.
"I don't know. I don't know many people when I come to this world. I don't have any enmity with anyone. Could it be Ye Jun's people? Because I ruined their plan to assassinate the saint? No way, given their behavior. It's not like she hides her head and shows her tail. Besides, the saint teleported away by herself and has little to do with me. I'm afraid I won't be able to get into the eyes of those people." Zhan Yue was puzzled. Of course, he couldn't know that it was just Because he spent a day alone with the saint, he aroused the jealousy of others and sent out killers.
"Let's go. I hope it will be a smooth trip and nothing will happen again."
With a map on his body, Zhan Yue planned his route in an orderly manner, "I can arrive at the capital in about three months. Dongguo is really big. The mountain in front of me is called Quliu Mountain. I'm afraid there is no one there." How am I going to spend the night if I can’t go out for two or three days?”
"You should worry more about the ferocious spiritual beasts in the mountains than the night-gaunts. You are protected by the Sun Stone. Ordinary night-gaunts cannot do anything to you, but it is difficult to encounter night-gaunts above the king level. There are generally three ways for night-gaunts to attack humans:
One is to possess other creatures, control them to attack humans, kill them and then devour their souls.
Second, directly attack humans and swallow souls alive. This method is usually only used by high-level night dire. With the Sun God Stone protecting the body, you don't have to be afraid of this method.
Third, sneak into human dreams and quietly devour souls and memories in dreams. This is a method only available to king-level Night Dires. The last king who sneaked into your dream has already lost his temper. "The Goddess of Tongming explained.
"What you need to worry about most is that the Night Dire possesses a powerful creature to attack you. However, although you only have the third level of spiritual contract, you can use my power of light, or activate the Sun Stone to activate the Sun Flame. Ordinary intermediate Night Dire There is no way they can be your opponent. So compared to night dire, spiritual beasts and humans are the enemies you should worry about more."
Zhan Yue smiled and said: "Compared to the Saint, I am afraid that I am more like the natural enemy of the Nightmare. If the Lei Zun Sword Master knew, would they give me the title of Saint Son Dangdang?"
"..." The Goddess of Tongming was speechless, and then said with emotion: "Whether it is a saint or a saint, I am a goddess, but it is just a title. The price for obtaining this title may not be something you can bear."
"Let's not talk about this anymore, Senior Goddess. What happened to the Night Dire clan you mentioned before that they deliberately concealed their strength?" Zhan Yue asked curiously.
"Don't call me Senior Goddess or Lord Goddess. Didn't you like the title of Big Sister before? Just call me Sister." Tongming Goddess actually doesn't like those unfamiliar and humble titles.
"Sister...sister?" Zhan Yue was speechless. This woman can be regarded as his ancestor...grandmother.
"Are you thinking I'm old?" Goddess Tongming seemed to see through Zhan Yue's thoughts.
"How dare you, sister goddess." Zhan Yue immediately changed his mind. Even the goddess really cares about these things.
"Just call me Xixuan. In fact, I don't like the name of Goddess. I'm just a stronger human being, not a god. But my teachers said that faith can unite the human race, so I didn't object to the name of Goddess Tongming. Title, now that I am reborn, I still want others to call me by my name. This is the only thing my parents left me, and I don’t want to lose it too." Goddess Tongming added.
"Okay, sister Xixuan." Zhan Yue felt that the relationship between the two of them seemed to be much closer.
"That's right. Regarding the Night Dire clan, they seem to be really hiding their strength. I found many Night Dires who were forced to sleep. The number of the Night Dire clan is definitely far greater than what the human race can control today. What I read in the book is Nowadays, humans and dire are about evenly matched. I am now certain that this was definitely a misjudgment. The dire seems to be waiting for the opportunity, and then shows its true power to launch a general attack on the human race. If I guessed correctly, they are waiting for the corpses. The emperor has awakened, so I am now rushing to the seal of the corpse emperor. I want to strengthen the seal as much as possible so that it will wake up later." The Tongming Goddess said, and the information revealed in her words may be enough to shock the world.
"Is this so? These beasts actually learned to conserve their energy and pretend to be pigs to eat tigers? This is incredible. By the way, Sister Xixuan, how does your strength compare with the Corpse Emperor?" Zhan Yue asked curiously.
