In the northern border of Dongguo, Piaoxue City.
As the first city to be destroyed by Night Dire, Piaoxue City was in a strange state at this moment. The Transparent Tower has long been in dilapidated condition, and there is no longer a trace of light. There are all kinds of 'corpse' crawling on the streets. This is a city completely occupied by night-gaunts, a city that no longer belongs to the human race.
"Amitabha." In the dark night, an old monk with a bare head and bare feet came over.
He walked into the city and looked at the scene in the city, but he closed his eyes again and couldn't bear to look directly. The surrounding night-gaunts instantly became excited when faced with the intruding prey, and began to kill them from all directions.
The ascetic monk opened his eyes, his eyes no longer filled with kindness, but with determination. He clasped his hands together, and a golden light burst out from his body, like a sun. All the Night Dires that surrounded him evaporated instantly, leaving behind soul beads on the ground.
The ascetic monk stepped in the void, and lotus grew at every step. When he reached the mid-air in the center of Piaoxue City, he made a gesture and a huge Buddhist swastika appeared on the ground, spiraling and expanding, covering the entire Piaoxue City in an instant. Snow City.
Under the Buddha's light, all the night-gaunts in the city evaporated, leaving no power to fight back. Even the two monarch-level night-daunts lurking underground were crushed to death without any resistance.
The old monk waved his hand, and countless soul beads flew towards him from everywhere. These soul beads are the remnants of the Night Dire after devouring human souls.
"Amitabha!" sighed again, and the old monk instantly transcended all the souls.
After finishing all this, he walked towards the dead Tongming Tower. The main purpose of his trip was to investigate the reason why the Tongming Tower was destroyed.
"Huh? All the formations in the Transparent Tower are out of order. Night Dire understands the formations?" The old monk was shocked by this discovery, but this was a fact.
He himself also knew the formation, and he was also familiar with the structure of the Transparent Tower. After a night of repairs, the Transparent Tower lit up again. But the ascetic monk's heart was even heavier. "They didn't destroy it casually. They really understood the structure of the Tongming Tower and knew how to really destroy it. How did they do it?"
The ascetic monk single-handedly regained the Piaoxue City and repaired the Transparent Tower. The people living a precarious life in the surrounding scattered villages can return to the city. As long as the statue of the goddess is there, the city will be safe for the time being.
At the same time, a similar scene happened in Huolun City in the western border of Chaoyang Kingdom, and the person who took action was a scholar. The scholar's attack was filled with endless awe, and Night Dire was easily killed without any resistance. He also repaired the Transparent Tower and regained Fire Wheel City by himself.
"I have to let my two apprentices investigate carefully. Why is the night dire so smart?" The storyteller had the same doubts as the ascetic monk.
Dongguo, the capital of learning.
In the secret room, there was only one person in front of Zhan Yue, and it was Lei Zun. Lei Zun, who used to be carefree, has become much more stable recently. His Zhang Fei-like appearance makes Zhan Yue always feel a little scared when looking at him.
The way Lei Zun looked at Zhan Yue at this moment was indeed unusual, admiring, curious and worried...
"The goddess has told me that you are even more important than the saint to Dire. After she leaves, your safety is crucial. What are your plans?" Lei Zun asked.
Zhan Yue smiled helplessly, "What can I do? Stay in school and don't go out." Zhan Yue had no other choice. The Night Dire Clan's commander-in-chief had already paid attention to him. Now he should be able to guess that he has lost the power of the goddess. Sheng Sheng, I am afraid that I will try my best to get rid of him. The academic capital is now protected by Thunder Master and Sword Master, so even if the Great Lord-level Night Dire comes, it will be able to resist it.
Lei Zun said: "If the capital of learning is always protected by us, there will be no worries. But we may not be able to stay here forever, and we can't take you with us wherever we go."
"This..." Zhan Yue is now just a little shrimp who is not even a profound practitioner. He can't help himself in everything.
"Do you know the original name of the academy?" Lei Zun asked suddenly.
Zhan Yue nodded. Although he didn't know why Lei Zun suddenly asked this, he still answered honestly. "The capital of learning was originally called Tianshu City."
Lei Zun smiled mysteriously, "Do you know the Book of Heaven?"
"Book of Heaven?" Zhan Yue shook his head again. Isn't this school called Sky Book City because there really is a Book of Heaven here?
"Not to mention other things in our era, the research on many ancient ruins is far beyond the era of the goddess." Lei Zun explained, "There is really a heavenly book in the heavenly book city. Strictly speaking, it is not a book. , but a world. It’s called the World of the Book of Heaven.”
Before Zhan Yue could understand it carefully, Lei Zun said again: "Now we have to find an absolutely safe place where you can avoid the pursuit of the night dire and at the same time allow your strength to grow. The best thing I can think of is The perfect place is the world of the Book of Heaven.”
"World of Heavenly Book?!" Zhan Yue said in surprise, this must be the biggest secret of the academic capital.
"But you need eight keys to open the world of the Book of Heaven. By the way, your contract object is not that sword, but the Earth Mother's Golden Cauldron." Lei Zun said suddenly.
Zhan Yue was stunned and asked in confusion: "How did you know?"
"Of course it was the goddess who told me. I told her about the world of the Book of Heaven and the eight keys. Among them, the 'key to the earth' has no clue. The goddess said that your contract object is the earth mother's golden tripod, which can communicate with the power of the earth's veins. , can be qualified for the 'Key to the Earth'. It's a pity that your current cultivation is still too weak, and you need at least the realm of the Mystic to be competent." Lei Zun explained.
"So that's it." Zhan Yue understood in his heart that the Goddess of Tongming had prepared a way out for him before leaving.
"So the top priority is to let your cultivation level break through the mysterious realm, thereby opening up the world of heavenly books. As long as you enter the world of heavenly books, your safety is guaranteed." Lei Zun explained.
"However, my skills are special and my cultivation progress is slow. It may be difficult to break through in a short time." Zhan Yue said helplessly. His cultivation progress is too slow. Although he is extremely strong and can kill enemies across borders. , but his own cultivation speed is not very fast.
"Look, who is this?" Lei Zun smiled. Outside the secret room, a middle-aged man dressed as a Taoist priest walked in.
"It's you! Senior Dan Taoist!" Zhan Yue saw the middle-aged man in front of him look surprised.
"Little friend, we meet again." Taoist Dan smiled.
"Long time no see, senior is still as energetic as ever." Zhan Yue said politely.
Taoist Dan didn't talk nonsense, "I have long seen that you are very human, but I didn't expect that the goddess would think so highly of you. I came here to discuss some things with Lei Zun, but your matter seems to be more critical. You What I am practicing is the method of fire elixir cauldron, so it is not easy to break through it. Fortunately, I happen to have this thing."
But I saw the alchemist Taoist take out a green medicine bottle. There was only one pill in the bottle, which was the ninth-grade pill - Karma Fire Tempering Xuan Dan. It is the pill that all fire-based martial arts cultivators dream of to break through the realm. It is generally used. Yu Xuanzhe broke through the spiritual god, but Zhan Yue had to say that he was overqualified for his use in breaking through the Xuanzhe. But the alchemist doesn't care. After all, only this elixir can 100% help Zhan Yue directly cross the small realm and break through to the big realm.
"Senior, this is too precious." Zhan Yue's hand holding the elixir was trembling. This was a ninth-grade elixir.
"Just take it, but if you take this elixir directly, it may be a little dangerous. It's best to find someone to protect you. I can tell that the little girl Gong Xiaoyu is also in the academy. She is a contractor of water. She is the most suitable person to protect you. If the power of the medicine goes wild, ordinary people may not be able to suppress it, but with her power of water spirit, she can handle it easily. You can go to her quickly with the medicine. Only by arranging your situation can we Let go and act." Taoist Dan explained.
"Thank you, senior." Zhan Yue knew that now was not the time to be pretentious, so she took the elixir and left the secret room.
Watching Zhan Yue leave, Lei Zun breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, there are seniors to help, otherwise I wouldn't be able to solve this kid's problem for a while. Since several seniors are willing to come out, then the identity of this human race leader is natural It’s not my turn.” After Lei Zun said that, he took out the Goddess Token.
Taoist Dan waved his hand, "We don't want to be burdened by worldly affairs, so you should keep this Goddess Token. You can just drive us old guys around. We haven't moved for a long time, and it's time to loosen our shins."
Lei Zun no longer hesitated and took back the Goddess Order. Nowadays, the three legendary predecessors of the ascetic, the storyteller and the alchemist have entered the world one after another, which can be said to have greatly strengthened the human camp.
"That girl Mi Hongchen went to discuss with Long Zun. I wonder if the Dragon Clan is willing to go all out in this decisive battle." Lei Zun said with some worry.
The Alchemist pointed to the sky, "The Goddess is watching from the sky. Those guys from the Dragon Clan will not slack off if they want to show off. Who among all the spirits and tribes does not owe the Goddess? Now that the Goddess has appeared in this world, she has sacrificed her freedom to fight for us and prepare for the decisive battle. Time, both the Dragon Clan and the Yu Clan should know the principle of both prosperity and loss."
