Chapter 20: Search
Shui Sheng took this treasure map in order to provoke Ximenjing completely.
However, since the people at the top of the Sea Dynasty wanted this map, they were sure that it should be of any use.
But this picture has actually been read several times ago, and it is indeed a reproduction, and the clues point to the depths of the Wanshui River.
Therefore, the aquatic life does not have the free time to check the authenticity at present.
"Alright, it's time to start cultivating!"
When the sun returns to the earth, the realm of aquatic life is much better again.
"In less than three days, I will be able to reach the tenth level of blood and body and reforge the meridians!"
Shui Sheng inspected his body, only to see a thin layer of blood mist covering his body, but this faint red light could only be seen by himself.
And when the blood body is ten heavy, this layer of red light will be completely condensed, and then turn into the meridians of the whole body!
And because it is a meridian that is recast with one's own blood, the quality of the meridians that will be formed at that time is related to the characteristics of one's own blood.
According to Shui Sheng's speculation, his Blood Demon meridians will become tenacious, and there will be some changes that he did not expect.
At this moment, there was a sharp knock on the door of the aquatic room.
"The people of the Sea Dynasty have appeared!
At the same time, a dull sound of horns came from the gate tower of Linjiang County.
"Ten breaths! There is an invasion of masters!"
Shui Sheng reacted immediately and quickly rushed out of the door.
I saw a young guard pounding on every room of the inn.
"Quick! The Three Prodigal Sons of the Dynasty have appeared! We, the guards, must act immediately!"
When the young guard saw Shui Sheng, he hurriedly urged a few words and continued to call the others.
And the water life also nodded, and ran towards the city gate.
Outside the city gate, a young guard captain armed with a steel knife was talking loudly.
The two rows of guards in front of him then scattered in all directions.
Shui Sheng hugged a fist at this time.
"Wanshui Island guards the aquatic life. ”
The youth captain looked back at him, then handed him a wooden cylinder.
"Someone just reported that one of the three prodigal sons, the eternal scorpion, appeared in the city, immediately find him, and then pull the cloud-piercing arrow, remember, don't be impulsive!"
After the aquatic life took the cloud-piercing arrow, a few dodges left the place.
"The Eternal Scorpion, the weakest of the three prodigal sons, has just entered the Earth Spirit Realm, and because half a month ago, he successfully robbed and killed the merchant ship of the Greedy Wolf Chamber of Commerce led by the powerhouse of the Earth Spirit Realm, so he became famous..."
The aquatic thought quickly in his mind about the information of the eternal scorpion.
When he first entered the Earth Spirit Realm, he was able to kill the Earth Spirit Realm cultivators of the Greedy Wolf Chamber of Commerce, and his actual combat power could be seen.
This is exactly this battle, he was favored by Wan Jiangxue and accepted as a core personnel.
It is said that this eternal scorpion is no more than thirty years old, and he should be a young man from the Blue Water Country, but somehow, he fell into the bandit industry.
Of course, he didn't care about these gossips, he only cared about how strong the people in this spiritual realm were!
And in his memory, the strength of the Earth Spirit Realm cultivators over the people of the Small Spirit Realm was in addition to the difference in the size of the Spiritual Qi Sea.
Another point is that there is a difference in the quality of this aura absorption.
If the sea of aura in the small spiritual realm is a jar of clear water, then the sea of aura in the earth spirit realm is a sweet spring.
This double difference in quantity and quality doomed the people of the Little Spirit Realm to be unable to defeat the Earth Spirit Realm.
Even in the memories of the hundred immortals in the water, there was never an example of a small spirit realm defeating an earth spirit realm.
"Senior, what is the basis for this eternal scorpion to be able to defeat the veteran of the Earth Spirit Realm when he first enters the Earth Spirit Realm?"
Faced with Shui Sheng's inquiry, the senior of the Human Emperor hesitated and replied directly.
"It's very simple, it depends on the foundation, like what level of exercises, the strength of martial arts, or he also has some adventures, etc., these are all considered foundations. ”
"Oh, then will I be able to defeat the Earth Spirit Realm cultivator with the strength of the Little Spirit Realm in the future?"
Shui Sheng was a little curious, according to the words of the Human Emperor, his own background was very strong.
But before he could analyze it properly, the senior of the human emperor said lightly.
"If you don't want to die, you can do it. ”
Shui Sheng was a little puzzled and couldn't help asking.
"Senpai, do you mean I can't do it?"
The Human Emperor sighed and said.
"It seems that you don't understand what I mean, I mean that you can skip the challenge, and there is a high probability of success, but the consequences of doing so are probably not something you can bear. ”
"What does that mean?"
Shui Sheng was even more confused after listening to the Human Emperor's explanation, he didn't understand what the consequences would be if he overstepped the level and defeated the enemy.
The human emperor seemed to be a little reluctant to say more, but after pondering for a long time, he still talked about the reason.
"You should know that monks go against the sky, but if you want to break through certain constraints, you will provoke certain people. ”
"These people love to see the monks going through hardships and suffering for the sake of cultivation, because that's what they allow. ”
"But if you break the rules they have made, they will think that you are provoking them, and they will punish you for not following the rules. ”
The human emperor said for a long time in one breath, and Shui Sheng also seemed to understand it.
If what you think is right, according to the meaning of the predecessors of the Human Emperor, it seems that there is a certain type of person watching them.
If you work hard to cultivate, you can forget it, but if you do something to challenge the rules, you will be executed by them.
The Human Emperor saw that Shui Sheng was bowing his head and pondering, so he continued to speak.
"You can understand that you are pretending to be forced to be struck by lightning, and I won't say much about the rest. ”
"Uh, okay. ”
In the time that followed, Shui Sheng circled around Linjiang County a few times, and then ran to Ximenjing's residence, but did not find anything abnormal.
Not only did he not find out, but he met many other guards along the way, all of whom said that they did not see any suspicious people.
And in a pavilion somewhere in Linjiang County, two guards were resting, and they took out their kettles and swallowed a few mouthfuls of water.
"This is strange, although the Eternal Scorpion is a master of the Earth Spirit Realm, but Linjiang County is not big, why haven't we found it at all after looking for so long?"
One of them frowned with some thought, while the other smiled.
"How do I know this? It's good for me to say I can't find it, the Earth Spirit Realm is not something we can provoke. ”
"That's right..."
"Are you looking for me?"
Suddenly, a somber laugh rang out from behind the two men.
"Who!"
They immediately jumped up, took out their weapons, and turned around and slashed, but only cut through the air.
But then the two of them only felt that their eyes were dark, and then they fell to the ground with a "bang".
"Hehe, these guys are pretty fast!"
It was still the gloomy voice just now, but its owner appeared in the gazebo wearing the clothes of the Linjiang County guard.
And the portrait he was holding in his hand was the appearance of Ximenjing.
"It's really fearless to throw the corpse in the hole like this! But these miscellaneous fish are not the opponents of the messenger, who is so bold?"
Before he could finish speaking, the fake guard disappeared from the gazebo, leaving behind two corpses wearing only underwear.
After a while, Shui Sheng searched around and came to this pavilion, and immediately saw two dead people on the ground.
"Linjiang County Guard!"
Although they didn't have any costumes, among the guards that Shui Sheng had seen scattered at the gate of the city before, there were these two people.
And in the search process before, the aquatic life also met with them once.
"It seems that they died at the hands of the eternal scorpion, and their clothes were taken away by the other party..."
The water sensed that the wounds on the necks of the two men were caused by a dagger, and that the Scorpion's weapon was a dagger.
Besides, those who dare to commit murder in Linjiang County and kill the guards of Linjiang County are only the people of the Sea Dynasty who have the courage!
"It's better to hide these two corpses first, so as not to startle the snakes. ”
Although he didn't know the purpose of the eternal scorpion exposing the corpse like this, at least he already knew that the eternal scorpion had blended into the guards of Linjiang County.
Therefore, in the next search, Shui Sheng took great care of the guards of Linjiang County.
He had been using the secret technique of the Thousand Faces Venerable to distinguish the aura of these people to see if he could catch this eternal scorpion properly.
Of course, what happened after finding the Eternal Scorpion had nothing to do with him, anyway, the strongest person in Linjiang County, the young guard captain who had reached the middle stage of the Earth Spirit Realm, would take action.
