Guishan Monastery has stood in Jingxi for thousands of years, and has been a first-class sect for more than a thousand years. It must have a good foundation, and its connections are also indispensable.
Shen Hao doesn't care about how to establish the relationship between Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshan Sect. He is only responsible for pointing out a way. The result depends on whether Guishan Monastery is willing to pay the price to fight for it.
It is foreseeable that in order to preserve the sect's foundation this time, Guishan Monastery will definitely have to bleed a lot.
"By the way, the sect leader gave you a Death City Token last time on your birthday, right?" Nie Yun saw that Shen Hao had already said everything he needed to say, so he remembered another task that the sect elders had given him before. This should be mentioned first, but he just forgot about it.
"Yes, the sect leader gave me a Death City Order and said that he would notify me when he goes to the City of Death to open the underground palace. What? Has the date been set?" Shen Hao asked quickly after hearing this. What he cares about most recently is his trip to the City of Fusi at the end of the year.
"Well, the date has been determined. It will be at the end of next month. We can set off around the 25th. Then there will be disciples coming to find you. You can calculate the time and make arrangements in advance.
However, the sect asked me to bring you a message, that is, since you are very interested in the underground palace of Wusi City, we will arrange for you to follow you to the core area to gain knowledge and gain some benefits. "
Shen Hao's hands suddenly stopped peeling the beans. WTF? Take him into the core area of the underground palace of the City of Undead to gain some knowledge? Are you sure you're right?
"Brother Nie, are you doing anything wrong? Even if I can successfully break through this month, I have just stepped into the back realm of Yuan Dan Realm. Now I can go into the core area of Wishi Death City to gain experience? Don't just die as soon as I enter. No guarantee?" Shen Hao was indeed very curious about the underground palace in the City of Wasted Death, but just because he was curious, it didn't mean that he would make fun of his own life.
Nie Yun was actually surprised by the sect's decision. But at this time it was his turn to explain to Shen Hao, saying: "That's not wrong. Zongmen means that the periphery of the underground palace in the City of Wasted Death has actually been searched many times, with limited harvest, and there are some wonderful places inside. It's also there in the core area, and it's even more wonderful.
And although your strength is far from the core area's admission standards, the sect will arrange three elders to protect you. As long as you don't explore dangerous places, it's okay to wander around the core area. "
After a pause, Nie Yun curled his lips and said: "Also, the original words of the sect leader said that you are a person with deep blessings and great luck, so maybe you can achieve something in the core area and have an epiphany. No matter what, it’s not impossible to have a high-grade or spiritual weapon.”
After saying this, Nie Yun's face felt really hot, so he added: "This is what the sect leader asked me to convey. To be honest, I feel a bit stingy. If you have any other ideas, just tell me directly. , I’ll transfer it back, it’s all easy to discuss.”
Shen Hao felt like laughing in his heart when he heard this, and he also understood what Nie Yun meant by the following paragraph about the underground palace in Wushou City.
To put it bluntly, the senior officials of Guishan Monastery were trying different ways to offer him benefits as a reward for his help.
However, these benefits are indeed, as Nie Yun added later, a bit too stingy. There is no real thing, just an empty promise and a relatively rare opportunity to enter the core area of the underground palace.
Of course, these benefits cannot be directly called "rewards". Compared with the secular world, people in the sect are always a little more cautious in this regard. In the end, Nie Yun said that if Shen Hao was dissatisfied, he could raise it himself. This was actually very clear.
However, Shen Hao had no intention of asking for other "rewards".
Perhaps in the eyes of others, Guishan Monastery's stinginess was a little unreasonable, and they probably wanted to take advantage of the friendship between Nie Yun and Shen Hao. But this stingy calculation played right into Shen Hao's hands.
To be honest, Shen Hao basically doesn't have much need for cultivation resources such as exercises, elixirs, etc. What he currently has in his hands is completely enough for what he needs. As for magic weapons, he doesn't think much of those below the top grade, and those above the top grade or even spiritual weapons are too rare. Although Shen Hao has never been to the underground palace of Wusi City, he has some understanding of the output inside. At least spiritual weapons are rare things that can be encountered but cannot be obtained in the underground palace. Therefore, Guishan Monastery said that spiritual weapons can be found in the underground palace. Although this is not nonsense, the possibility is too low.
In fact, what Shen Hao really cares about is not the cultivation resources in the underground palace, but the various possible information carriers inside, such as some murals or inscriptions. After all, these things may contain the information that Shen Hao wants most about existences such as the Black Beast Tattoo, and it can also prove that Shen Hao has always speculated that there is a connection between the underground palace of the City of Death and existences such as the Black Beast Tattoo, or evil beasts. Not that there is some kind of relationship.
The Yin Jade maps in the underground palace of the City of Death before had also aroused the reaction of the Black Beast Tattoo.
Shen Hao remembers clearly that when Shen Hao held the Yin Jade map depicting the head of an eyeless beast, the emotions that emerged from the black beast tattoo were the contradictory emotions of "expectation" and "fear".
This is easy to understand. The reason why the black beast tattoo "expects" it must be that it can benefit from it. Maybe it's the golden soul energy similar to that in the Sword King's Tomb, or maybe it's something that other black beast tattoos need or desire. And "fear" should be the literal meaning. The black beast tattoo is afraid that there is something that can threaten it.
What could threaten a black beast tattoo?
So far, it can be said that the black beast tattoo has been very arrogant in Shen Hao's contact most of the time. Even when he met Zhou Yankong or Yang Shan and Yang Qingzhi, who are great monks in the back realm of the Xuanhai realm, the black beast tattoo has never been empty. Pass. The only person who makes the Black Beast Tattoo feel guilty is the one of its kind attached to the Emperor's body. Every time it approached the emperor, it would pretend to be dead, and it almost didn't even dare to show its head when it stepped into the imperial city.
So is it one of the same kind that makes the Black Beast Tattoo "fearful" in the underground palace of the City of Death?
Shen Hao thinks it is very possible. Because the Yin Jade map that made the black beast tattoo react with "fear" and "expectation" is also a bit special. Not only does it have a weird red line outlining the map route, but there is also an eyeless beast head pattern on the top.
It is this eyeless beast head that gives the black beast tattoo a different emotional response.
Is this eyeless beast head the same kind as the black beast tattoo?
Shen Hao distinguished the appearance of the tattoo on his chest and the appearance of the eyeless beast head on the Yinyu map. He found that the two were similar, but they were not "the same type" in the general sense.
However, no matter what, the core area of the underground palace in the City of Death is undoubtedly more attractive to Shen Hao than the periphery.
