There was a commotion outside...
The people who were practicing in the tent all ran out, and Shi Nan kicked Ma Yang, who was sleeping like a pig next to him.
Ma Yang just turned over and ignored it. Heather was afraid of the appearance. After all, this was still an area densely populated by monsters. After grabbing Ma Yang and shaking it for a few times, he slowly opened his eyes and said, "Let me sleep for a while."
"Get up, the guards should be back soon, and we should be prepared." Heather said calmly.
"Huh?" Ma Yang then realized that he was still in the area densely populated by monsters, and stood up like a carp.
The two came outside the tent, and the red sun was setting in the west. In the afterglow of the setting sun, the entire camp and the lake were dyed with a light golden light, and apes and tigers roared in the distance.
Dozens of people appeared on the horizon, led by the guard envoy Ning Yuanlong. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, he could vaguely see something shining with golden light in his right hand.
"Found it!" Ning Ruman, who was already standing outside the camp, cheered. The chubby Qi Bao saw Ning Ruman flying to her feet at a very fast speed and rubbing her ankle with his furry face.
After Ning Yuanlong approached, everyone stared curiously at the light dragon bud in Ning Yuanlong's hand, which was a plant that looked like a pile of grass. The leaves are thin and long, in the shape of willow leaves, with clearly visible veins. The lush green leaves look particularly green and bright under the support of the dark green leaves. In the middle of the few long leaves is a flower with countless Dao lines. This flower has only five petals, and each petal shines with golden light in accordance with the rhythm of the Dao lines. Below the flower is a straight stem, inserted in the middle of the leaves like a sword.
"The mission is considered completed. It's already very late today. I'll have a night's rest before going back. You four little guys performed quite well. Come to my tent later." After saying this, Ning Yuanlong went straight to the tent in the middle of the camp. .
"Miss Ning, the guard is going to give us a big reward!" Hua Lin looked at Ning Ruman who was holding one of her arms and joked.
"I don't know either, but before we set off, he said that as long as we follow him to practice, he will give us some rewards after the mission is completed." Ning Ruman grabbed Hua Lin's arm and followed him, while Qi Bao seemed to have fallen out of favor. Walking quietly behind Ning Ruman.
"Let's go take a look too." After saying this to Ma Yang, Shinan also followed.
In Ning Yuanlong's tent, the sand table had long since disappeared, replaced by a large round table.
Ning Yuanlong took off a leaf from Guanglong Qiya, cut it into pieces with his spiritual power, and threw it into the four cups on the table. Then put the remaining Guanglongqi buds into a transparent glass cover, lift the kettle aside and pour it into the cup.
"Drink, your current ability can only withstand the power of the leaves." Ning Yuanlong didn't say much, and he brewed the spiritual material as tea for the four of them to drink.
The four of them looked at each other. Although they felt that this seemed a bit wasteful, they didn't ask any more questions. Heather was the first to pick up the cup, shake it and take a sip.
I have to say that the water brewed from such spiritual materials is light and delicious, with a lingering fragrance. Seeing Heather taste it, the other three people also picked up their cups and tasted it.
"How is it? Do you feel that your spiritual power is more concentrated?" Ning Yuanlong asked, looking at the four of them with a smile.
Shinan didn't feel any difference. Maybe it was because he had already completed the foundation building, or maybe his spiritual power was more concentrated than ordinary cultivators.
But the reaction of the other three people was very obvious. The three people just took a small sip and began to enter the cultivation state.
"You are worthy of being the number one genius in our Mian City. In such a short period of time, you have already reached the foundation building stage. It seems that I have to reward you separately." Ning Yuanlong stared at Heather with interest.
"Thank you, Lord Guardian. I have one more thing I want to report to you." Heather thanked Ning Yuanlong.
"Oh? Tell me." Ning Yuanlong was playing with the light dragon bud as he spoke, trying to plant it in the glass cover.
"I don't know whether to talk about those five people in Bangzi Country or not." Heather took another sip of the water in the cup.
"Don't worry, just say it. Those people were trying to do something wrong. Did you find anything?" Ning Yuanlong took out a flower pot and used his spiritual power to get some soil from the ground and put it into the flower pot.
"They found the entrance to a secret realm in the lake outside, and I followed them into it." Shinan said and took a peek at Ning Yuanlong. Seeing that the other party continued to play with the Light Dragon Qi Ya, he had to continue: "Enter it. Later, I discovered that it was the Shushan Sword Tomb, and those people had been meditating in front of the stone tablet."
"Did you break through to the foundation-building stage after enlightenment?" Ning Yuanlong didn't take it seriously. He gently put the light dragon bud into the middle of the flower pot, and then covered its roots with soil.
"Well, I made a breakthrough last night. As for the stone tablet, I saw that it was an ordinary stone tablet that someone placed later. It has no value." Heather put down the cup, picked up the kettle and filled the empty cup with water.
"Didn't they notice?" Ning Yuanlong turned his head and stared at Heather with some concern.
"No, the writing on the stone tablet is machine-carved and cannot be discovered without mental observation. The five of them are not alchemists, so they have no mental power and cannot observe it. In addition, it is carved with large seal script, so they don't even recognize it. What is it writing?" After saying this, Heather blew on the water that was scalding her mouth.
"Well done, they didn't enter the innermost part of the secret realm?" Ning Yuanlong seemed to know something about the secret realm and asked quickly.
"No, I tried it too, but couldn't get in at all. After they gave up, they said they were just here to investigate the situation." Heather's expression looked a little disappointed, and she deliberately spread her hands.
"You don't need to close this matter. Of course, someone will cause trouble for them." Ning Yuanlong put the glass cover on the flower pot and took out another glass cover.
"Okay." Shinan nodded heavily, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He could not let the second person know that he had entered the Yunyang Hall. This Shushan Sword Sect must not have disappeared, otherwise how can we explain this stone tablet? Obviously someone is worshiping from time to time, and I don't dare to provoke such a behemoth.
"Shi Xiaoyou, if I remember correctly, you applied for the Military Defense University of Science and Technology, right?" Ning Yuanlong covered the flower pot with another glass cover, and connected it with the glass cover covered with the Light Dragon Qiya. The spiritual power seals it.
"Yes." Heather replied honestly.
"There happens to be an old friend of mine there. After you report, you can take this letter to Chen Zhi, Academician Chen. She is a famous god-level alchemist in China." Ning Yuanlong seemed to have prepared it in advance. Yes, a letter appeared in his hand and he handed it to Heather.
When I took the letter and looked at it, I found that the entire letter was very clean, with only the words "Chen Zhi personally express" written in the middle.
Heather was curious and wanted to use her mental power to see what was written inside, but she couldn't penetrate the letter no matter what. There is a film attached to the letter, and neither mental power nor spiritual consciousness can enter it. Having no choice but to give up, Shinan bowed to Ning Yuanlong again to thank him.
"You don't have to be so polite. This is a reward you have earned. It will be tomorrow morning when they wake up." Ning Yuanlong looked at Guanglong Qiya fondly and waved his hand.
Shinan left the camp and met Park Changji.
"Brother Shi, what benefits has the guardian envoy given you?" In fact, Park Changji has been wandering outside the camp. Due to the strength of the guardian envoy, he did not dare to approach the camp at all. So he didn't know what was going on inside. The guards outside the door didn't even want to see him, and didn't give him a good look.
"I just drank the tea collected by the city lord and talked about some things about our college studies." Heather replied calmly.
"That's all?" Park Changji asked in disbelief.
"That's it. We didn't contribute much. The good things are definitely Brother Park and you who contributed more." Heather walked to the bonfire during the day. At this time, it had been extinguished by the soldiers. Heather glanced at the pile of brachion meat with some disappointment, and swallowed her saliva, looking very unsatisfied.
Hearing this, Park Changji handed over a second-level beast core to Shi Nan and said, "Thank you very much, Brother Shi. This beast core will be used as a thank you gift."
"Brother Park, why are you so polite? You see, I don't have any useful information. How can I be embarrassed to accept your gift?" Shinan pretended to refuse. In fact, he didn't want it at first, but now it was time to fall out with this person. It can be done half-heartedly.
"Take it, our brother was polite to me. From now on, if you have any important news, please tell me as soon as possible." Park Changji looked generous, handed it to Heather and left.
Heather held this beast core and suddenly another thought popped into her head. If she fished with this, would she fall into a good freshwater monster?
"You should give it a try. Huangdi Xuanyuan likes to use beast cores to catch monsters, and the effect is particularly good." Xiao Ling's voice sounded in Heather's mind at this time.
"Xiao Ling, I want to ask you something." Heather is also a person who does what she says. She took out the fishing rod, hung up the second-order beast core, and sat by the lake to relax.
"Just tell me what's going on. Please ask me for advice on what's going on." Xiao Ling's voice sounded a little disdainful.
"Can you change your form?" Heather has never dared to take out the Sword of the Holy Path. The appearance of this sword is already shocking, and it would not be good if someone saw the clues.
"Okay, but do you think my aunt is not good-looking?" Xiao Ling's voice was obviously just teasing Heather.
"Of course not, just because you are so beautiful, isn't this to avoid unnecessary trouble." Heather stared at the fish float and said silently in her heart.
"For the sake of your sincerity, I will spare you this one time. Tell me, what do you want me to become, but I can only transform into the appearance of the weapon I have swallowed." After listening to Heather's words, Xiao Ling The tone was very happy.
"It couldn't be better, just turn it into the sword I had before." After learning about Xiao Ling's function, Heather felt very happy.
"The fish is hooked!" Heather quickly stood up and lifted the fishing rod.
This fishing rod was of course made of special materials, and he came across it by chance when he was looking for the couple to sell elixirs on consignment in the black market. I bought it because I had the Fairy Lake right at my doorstep and could accompany my father fishing at any time.
According to the introduction from the boss at the time, it was made from the ribs of a fifth-level demonic beast, but Heather knew that it was made from the spine of a second-level moon-crying demon wolf, so he bought it after several bargains. After being forged with alloy, the spine of the Howling Moon Demon Wolf can still recover when bent by the strength of Heather. Its strength has to be said to be superb, and it can also shrink like an ordinary fishing rod.
A fish about three meters long jumped into the air and splashed with water. The fish had silvery scales that glowed golden-red in the afterglow of the setting sun. Its fins were rose-colored, and its tail was like a golden-red gauze. It was biting a heather fishing line in its fat mouth. There was a constant struggle in the air.
"It's the second-level demonic beast Phantom Wave Fish. It's a blessing. Hahaha..."
