Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Netherworld Forest
It's dusk, and the sunset is tangent to the horizon and will not set. In the front hall of the Qi Mansion, Qi Yuntian sat in the right position, Wang Aotian and Bai Jiewei sat on the side seats on both sides, while Chen Feng, Bai Yufei, Qi Siting, Wang Zheng and Qi Xiaoyun and Qi Jie were arranged to take a walk in the garden in the south of the Qi Mansion, but they were quite leisurely, as for the Wang family and the rest of the Bai family, they all stood in the front yard silently with respectful expressions and waited.
On the main seat, Qi Yuntian glanced at Wang Aotian and Bai Jiewei on both sides, and then he took out a golden scroll from the Qiankun bag on his waist, the surface of this scroll was full of golden light, and wisps of formation patterns were surging on its surface, obviously there was some kind of relatively powerful prohibition.
Qi Yuntian's left hand was raised slightly, and a stream of Xuan Divine Power was transmitted into the scroll, and the surface of the scroll immediately bloomed with dazzling light, and then a streamer of light flew out from the scroll, illuminating the entire front hall.
The light continued to move in the air, outlining a rather wide drawing, and rows of gilded characters gradually appeared on the surface of the drawing, which was extremely gorgeous and dazzling.
"Two family heads, in fact, this time the deputy mayor Yun Lie went to the main city and brought back a piece of news that was extremely unfavorable to us, I think we should pay attention to it," Qi Yuntian looked at the two of them and said solemnly.
"I don't know what the news is that makes the mayor so serious, please tell the mayor clearly," Bai Jiewei shook the folding fan lightly, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Qi Yuntian looked solemn, without the slightest intention of joking, which made Bai Jiewei and Wang Aotian's expressions become serious, obviously what Qi Yuntian wanted to say was indeed extremely important, otherwise the latter would not have behaved so seriously.
"According to the information that Yun Lie went to Heavenly Star City this time, I think it will be extremely difficult for us in Qingxuan Town to get a good place in the selection competition this time!" Qi Yuntian said with a bitter expression.
"Oh, why did the mayor say that?" asked Wang Aotian in a deep voice.
Qi Yuntian glanced at the drawings that were already full of big characters, pointed them out to the two of them, and said with a wry smile: "Look at it!"
Wang Aotian and Bai Jiewei looked strange, but they still moved their eyes to the drawing hanging in the air, but they gasped after just one glance, and the whole person froze in place.
I saw that the drawings were full of rows of names and their corresponding cultivations, and the words on the top row were particularly eye-catching, which read: Gu Xinyu: The son of Gu Yuetian, the city lord of Tianxing City, cultivated as: Early stage of enlightenment.
And the second row was followed by Lin Ye: the first day of the Lin family, the four major families of Tianxing City, cultivated as: half-step enlightenment realm.
The second is Zhao Mingxuan in the third row: the first day of the Zhao family, the four major families of Tianxing City, cultivated as: half-step enlightenment realm.
......
"It's... How can it be so strong!" After a long while, Wang Aotian breathed a sigh of relief and exclaimed.
Although Bai Jiewei didn't say anything, his face was full of surprise, and he was probably so surprised that he couldn't even speak.
Qi Yuntian sighed slightly, in fact, he didn't look at this scroll, he had already learned something about the strength of the major geniuses in the main city from the main city before, but in order to confirm its authenticity, Qi Yuntian asked Qi Yunlie to go to the main city a few days ago to investigate, and this scroll was also secretly bought from the great elder of the Zhao family at a very high price.
After all, in order to prevent the strength of their geniuses from being exposed, the major forces generally keep it secret from the outside world, if it weren't for the fact that they had a good relationship with the Zhao family, and the Zhao family's means of obtaining news were also extremely extraordinary, otherwise they Qingxuan Town would still have no idea about the strength of the main city of Tianxing City!
Bai Jiewei and Wang Aotian stared at the drawings without blinking for more than a quarter of an hour before slowly retracting their gazes, their faces full of shock.
Because there are a total of twenty geniuses in the main city of Heavenly Star City, the weakest ones all have the cultivation of the early stage of the Martial Dao Eightfold, and they are all much stronger than their first day in Qingxuan Town, Qi Xiaoyun, doesn't this mean that they Qingxuan Town will be eliminated directly this time!
Because although each town is allocated four places, each city in the city group, whether it is a big city or a small city, can only send a maximum of ten genius representatives, after all, there are millions of cities in the Mingwu Empire, even if each city only sends ten geniuses, the number is extremely terrifying, reaching tens of millions, and it is already extremely difficult to organize such a number, let alone send more geniuses.
And looking at the cultivation of all the geniuses on this drawing, the weakest ones are far beyond Qi Xiaoyun, and the number of geniuses on this alone has exceeded ten, so how can they still have a place in Qingxuan Town in the selection competition!
After reading the drawings, Bai Jiewei glanced at Qi Yuntian who was sitting on the main seat, his eyes flashed slightly, he knew that the latter could not just let the two of them see the strength of the geniuses in the main city, there must be other purposes, I saw him ask with a light smile: "Mayor Qi won't just let us see this drawing, right?"
Seeing Bai Jiewei ask like this, Qi Yuntian secretly said in his heart that he was smart, only to see him wave his left hand, take back the drawings into the Qiankun bag, and then clear his throat and said: "Actually, I invited the two family masters to discuss one thing with you this time, and this matter may improve the genius strength of our Qingxuan Town a lot!"
When Wang Aotian heard Qi Yuntian say this, his gloomy face couldn't help but show a hint of curiosity, and he asked suspiciously, "I don't know what the matter is." ”
"I want you geniuses to go to the Netherworld Forest for half a month, maybe some of them can get some opportunities in it, so as to narrow the gap with the geniuses of the main city," Qi Yuntian replied.
"No, the Netherworld Forest is too dangerous, the genius cultivation of our major forces is only six or seven martial arts, and this kind of strength can't even protect oneself," Wang Aotian was the first to object, and said with a serious face.
Although Bai Jiewei didn't speak, he was a little reluctant to look at his eyes, although Qi Yuntian was a little dissatisfied with this Wang Aotian's attitude, but he could also understand the latter's meaning, this Netherworld Forest was indeed extremely dangerous, and their genius was indeed a bit risky.
The Yin Forest is a well-known dangerous place in the entire Tianlan County, and this dangerous place is located a hundred miles away from Tianxing City, and the people in Qingxuan Town can reach it in only two days if they want to go, and a strong person like Qi Yuntian who is in the Realm of Enlightenment can reach it in less than a quarter of an hour.
And the reason why this Netherworld Forest is so famous is because the entire Netherworld Forest is filled with an extremely strange cold air, and the more this cold goes deeper into the forest, the stronger it becomes, this cold air can be extremely terrifying, just the cold air on the periphery can make a martial artist with a fourfold martial arts fall instantly, not to mention the cold air in the depths!
And what's even more terrifying is that this underworld forest is full of demon beasts, these demon beasts are all spiritual, and their IQ is almost comparable to that of humans, and these demon beasts are extremely powerful, and they like to eat humans very much, so as long as humans go in, they will generally die without a place to be buried, so Wang Aotian and the others directly rejected Qi Yuntian's request, because this is indeed too dangerous!
