"Did you fail..." Xiao Zhi muttered.
After hearing the news, there was no overly surprised expression on his face.
That advanced combined attack formation is a military secret and is not easy to steal.
From the beginning, Xiao Zhi felt that Li Pingfeng's operation had little chance of success. However, after all, this was a task assigned to Li Pingfeng by the All Living Beings Army, so it was hard for him to question it.
Fortunately, although the mission failed, the person was fine.
As long as everyone is fine, Li Pingfeng can continue to explore outside the dual world and continuously bring information from the outside world back to their world.
Seeing that Xiao Zhi was silent and silent, the female player continued to speak softly: "Not long ago, Mr. Li Pingfeng returned to the real world, talked about his current situation, and then re-entered the world of sentient beings. World, according to Mr. Li Pingfeng, the Jichang family has a long-standing feud with the Jimu Dynasty. After escaping into the Jichang family, he should be safe. Next, he plans to pass through the Jichang family and continue walking north. Go to other countries.”
"I know." Xiao Zhi nodded slightly.
The female player shut up and said no more, her eyes were lowered and her heartbeat was still a little fast.
After a while, she raised her eyes slightly and glanced quickly at Xiao Zhi, who was sitting cross-legged about ten meters away.
Xiao Zhi had closed his eyes at this time, as if he was resting his mind.
He should be practicing again.
Seeing this, the female player couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
The staff who can be arranged to be "dispatched" by Xiao Zhi's side, regardless of gender, are all extraordinary people, either with profound backgrounds or outstanding abilities.
They came to Xiao Zhi, firstly to admire Xiao Zhi, a world-class hero, and secondly, to become familiar with each other and accumulate some capital for their future development.
As for the female players who come here, they more or less have different thoughts in their hearts.
However, this Xiao Zhi spends most of his time practicing and doesn't pay much attention to these female players. This makes these female players who have other ideas in their hearts feel quite helpless.
Sometimes they even think with resentment that this Xiao Zhi is so incomprehensible and charming and deserves to be single until now!
In this way, several days passed.
In the past few days, both the real world and the world of sentient beings have been quite peaceful.
The 10,000 spirit stones that the Army of All Beings lent him have been returned to him.
The 5,000 spiritual stones that Venerable Jishi promised to him have also been sent to him by his disciples.
Xiao Zhi stayed in his small courtyard and continued to practice his [Nine Netherworld Yuanlong Visualization].
Time soon came to January 25th.
On this day, Yang Bin, whom he hadn't seen for several days, came over again to have some food.
When the guests came, Xiao Zhi, as the host, naturally needed to entertain them, so Xiao Zhi made a boiled ink dragon meat.
This Demon Lord's peak-level ink dragon meat is like seafood such as Australian lobster and king crab. Even if it is only boiled, it tastes extremely delicious.
"Brother Zhi, this wine is good. It's mellow and delicious, with endless flavor." Yang Bin took a sip of the wine in the white jade cup and praised it.
Xiao Zhi smiled and said: "This is what Venerable Li Yuan left for me when he visited me a few days ago. If you like it, you can take a jar back."
As he spoke, Xiao Zhi waved his hand, and an exquisite white jade wine jar appeared out of thin air. It was pulled by his true energy and floated towards Yang Bin.
Yang Bin smiled and said: "Then I won't be polite."
After collecting the jar of wine, the two continued to eat and drink.
Drinking the fine wine left by Venerable Li Yuan and eating the delicious boiled black dragon meat, Yang Bin sighed somewhat: "Brother Zhi, you don't know, ever since your consciousness entered this world of living beings, you have experienced the fine wine here. After delicious food, even the most expensive wine and the most delicious meat in the real world don’t interest me that much.”
Xiao Zhi took a sip of wine, picked up a piece of cooked ink dragon meat with jade chopsticks, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully. He said casually: "Is there any inside information you want to tell me in the past two days? ?”
Yang Bin thought for a moment and said, "There haven't been any major events recently. They're all trivial things, or some celebrity gossip. Do you want to listen?"
Xiao Zhi shook his head and said, "Forget it about those celebrity gossips."
He has never chased stars, and has always been indifferent to the gossip of these celebrities. This was the case before, and it is still the case now.
"I'm not very interested in these. Most of the celebrities who are popular now are players just like us. They are just better at packaging themselves and pretending. In terms of strength, don't talk about you, my boss. Even if Even I can beat them to the point where they cry for father and mother!"
Yang Bin obviously doesn't seem to have a good impression of the gamer celebrities that have sprung up during this period.
Xiao Zhi just smiled and did not express his opinion on this.
Yang Bin picked up the jug and poured himself a glass of wine. He drank it all in one gulp and showed an expression of aftertaste. After he finished recollection, he picked up a piece of boiled black dragon meat with jade chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth while chewing. While continuing: "It is already the twelfth lunar month, and in a dozen days, it will be the New Year. Brother Zhi, are you going to spend this year in the world of living beings, or return to the real world?"
Xiao Zhi was slightly shocked when he heard this.
It’s almost the New Year?
During the recent period, he was either practicing or fighting, so he didn't pay much attention to this. If Yang Bin hadn't mentioned it, he would have forgotten about the New Year.
Xiao Zhi calculated the time silently in his mind.
Today is January 25, 2021, and if he remembers the traditional Spring Festival of Xia Country correctly, it should be February 12, 2021...
Indeed, in more than ten days, the Chinese New Year will be here.
For Xia people like him, the Spring Festival is the most important festival of the year and is of great significance.
Xiao Zhi thought for a moment and said, "If possible, I still hope to return to the real world and spend this Spring Festival."
After a pause, he added: "With my parents, I haven't seen them for a long time."
Yang Bin stopped chewing. He seemed to have thought of something. He was silent for a moment and said, "Me too."
Xiao Zhi picked up the white jade jug and poured himself a glass of wine, then drank it all in one gulp, thinking: "New Year and new atmosphere, no matter before this, can I practice the [Nine Netherworld Yuanlong Visualization Diagram] to perfection?" Level, I'll go help Zhenlan Cannian and get rid of that ice glutton..."
"In this way... I can relax and spend this New Year with my family."
With the plan in his mind settled, Xiao Zhi calmed down and continued to practice his [Nine Netherworld Yuanlong Visualization Diagram].
Fighting with those Yuanlongs in the battle space belonging to the [Nine Netherworld Yuanlong Visualization Diagram] is a shortcut to visualize and practice this [Nine Netherworld Yuanlong Visualization Diagram]. This has already been verified. .
To this day, Xiao Zhi is still attacking the 17th Yuanlong and has not yet completed the first kill of the 17th Yuanlong.
But it should be soon.
When he first came into contact with the Seventeenth Yuanlong, every time he fought, he would be defeated quickly.
Not anymore. Now, he can fight with the Seventeenth Yuanlong for several minutes or even ten minutes without falling behind at all. Sometimes, he can even gain a slight upper hand.
However, if you want to complete the strategy against this Yuanlong, it is not enough just to remain undefeated. You must kill it before you can open the next level.
In addition to visualizing and practicing [Nine Netherworld Yuanlong Visualization Picture], Xiao Zhi will occasionally visualize and practice his [Dharma Appearance of the Mighty Heavenly King], transforming into the Mighty Heavenly King, going to the Buddhist world, and facing The demons and ghosts inside were killing people wantonly, in order to vent the depressed energy accumulated in his heart due to being unable to defeat the Seventeenth Yuan Dragon for a long time. In this way, his mood could become much more comfortable.
When he is tired from the visualization practice, Xiao Zhi either returns his consciousness to the world of living beings, sits and rests quietly in this quiet courtyard, and listens to some news about the outside world, or his consciousness sinks into the [Nine Netherworld Yuanlong Visualization Picture], Along with the god-level Yuanlong, they swam leisurely in the Nine Nether Realm.
During the recent period, Xiao Zhi followed this god-level Yuanlong around the Nine Nether Realm and never sensed Ji Yuanrong again.
Xiao Zhi felt that with the three-year appointment, Ji Yuanrong should have been dormant in a remote corner of the Nine Nether Realm. After all, there was not much true energy left in his body and he could not waste it anymore.
If he continues to waste his true energy, he will not be able to fight the war agreed upon in three years.
Another reason is that Xiao Zhi now spends most of his time on the Yuanlongs in the battle space. The time he can spend traveling around the Nine Nether Absolute Territory with this god-level Yuanlong has undoubtedly been greatly reduced. , the chance of sensing Ji Yuanrong is naturally even smaller.
A few more days passed in this way, and the time came to February 1st.
At this time, Xiao Zhi was fighting fiercely with the seventeenth Yuanlong in the battle space belonging to the [Nine Nether Yuanlong Visualization Picture].
Now, he has been able to gain the upper hand relatively steadily in the battle with the Seventeenth Yuan Long, but having the upper hand does not mean that he can kill the opponent.
Fighting and fighting, as the power is continuously consumed in the battle, Xiao Zhi's strength will decline, and the long-term tension will also make him feel tired, and then he will make some mistakes in the battle, and his opponent, The Seventeenth Yuan Dragon is like a tireless perpetual motion machine, with seemingly infinite energy and frighteningly stable performance!
Under the circumstances, Xiao Zhi was overturned by headwinds.
After being overturned by such a headwind again, Xiao Zhi sat cross-legged in the quiet courtyard a little tired, resting quietly with his eyes closed.
He is quietly accumulating strength and preparing to fight again!
It's coming soon, it should be coming soon.
Xiao Zhi had a feeling that as long as the combat effectiveness of the Yuanlong he transformed into improved, he should be able to capture the seventeenth Yuanlong.
While he was resting, Xiao Zhi felt something strange. As soon as he thought about it, a snow lotus petal appeared out of thin air and floated in front of his eyes.
The petals of the snow lotus exuded a shimmering light, and in the blink of an eye they transformed into the face of a handsome man, none other than Zhenlan Cannian.
The man turned his face towards Xiao Zhi, stared at Xiao Zhi and said, "How is the matter handled?"
Xiao Zhi was also staring at it and said calmly: "The matter has been dealt with. I am now practicing the [Nine Netherworld Yuanlong Visualization Diagram] you gave me."
The man's face turned cold and he said, "You don't take my affairs to heart, right?"
"Zhenlan, you misunderstood." Xiao Zhi said calmly: "I have always attached great importance to your matter. It is precisely because I attach enough importance to it that I did this. I think it should not exceed 1 month at most. I should I can practice the [Nine Nether Yuanlong Visualization Diagram] you gave me to the perfection level. By then, my strength will be raised to the peak level of Yuanying. In this way, when I face that ice glutton, Sometimes, we can be more confident.”
"You said that you can practice the [Nine Netherworld Yuanlong Visualization Diagram] to the perfection level in no more than a month?" The man's face showed a look of surprise.
"Yes, within a month, I will definitely be able to practice the [Nine Netherworld Yuanlong Visualization Diagram] to the perfection level and raise my strength to the peak level of Yuanying." Xiao Zhi said firmly.
"What if it can't be done?" The man stared at Xiao Zhi.
"If I can't, I will re-enter the cold mountain realm and kill that ice glutton as you please." Xiao Zhi said.
"I'll come back to find you in a month!" After saying this, the handsome man's face transformed into a crystal snow lotus petal again.
Xiao Zhi gently waved his hand, collected the snow lotus petals, and murmured: "Although this Zhenlan Cannian doesn't have much strength left, the abilities it has left are so powerful that it makes people... envious."
For example, Zhenlan Cannian's ability to transmit sounds is incredible.
The monks rely on jade symbols to transmit sounds. If they want to achieve long-distance communication, they need a city's defense array as a 'communication base station'. Once the coverage of this 'communication base station' is exceeded, it will be difficult for each other to pass through. This sound transmission jade talisman made contact.
In addition, it is also very susceptible to interference from the external environment.
For example, if you are in dangerous or remote places, you will not be able to communicate with the outside world through the sound transmission jade talisman.
This is not the case with the snow lotus petal that Zhenlan Cannian handed over to Xiao Zhi. Even though they are separated by an extremity, even if they are hundreds of thousands of miles away, through this snow lotus petal, Zhenlan Cannian can still contact him, and he can rely on it. With this snow lotus petal, I contacted Zhenlan Cannian.
This is the legendary magical method.
Nascent Soul monks like him can be regarded as immortal figures in the eyes of ordinary people in the world of living beings, but they are far behind compared to real gods.
After dealing with Zhenlan's residual thoughts, Xiao Zhi continued to practice hard.
On this day, Xiao Zhi successfully killed the Seventeenth Yuanlong in the battle space belonging to the [Nine Nether Yuanlong Visualization Map] and completed the strategy for the Seventeenth Yuanlong.
Next, there is the Eighteen Yuan Dragon.
