A figure wearing a cloak and a hat flashed in the mountains and forests, and the thunder flashed in the sky, turning the mountains white, and the gloomy dark clouds seemed to be pressed down.

The figure walked through the mountains and forests, and finally stopped outside a hidden cave

"Who would have thought that the Qingyu Pavilion, which secretly controls the eighteen cities of Beining, would have the entrance and exit in such a place"

Ye Cheng raised his head, looked at the black entrance of the cave in front of him, and walked in without hesitation.

The cave was extremely dark, the stalactites were dripping down, and the sound of ticking echoed in the empty cave, even ordinary people would only think it was an ordinary cave when they entered here.

Although the deserted village can also reach the headquarters of the Qingyu Pavilion, after all, it is also the entrance to the black market, and there are many people, so there are naturally other entrances for the members of the Qingyu Pavilion.

Ye Cheng followed the secret mark on the cave all the way to the end of the cave, and pressed lightly on a secret grid somewhere on the wall, and with a click, the black stone wall parted to both sides.

When Ye Cheng reappeared, he was already halfway up the mountainside, and below it was a group of buildings that stretched out, surrounded by green mountains, slightly drunk in the twilight rain, and the courtyard with white walls and blue tiles showed a kind of vicissitudes of antiquity.

Ye Cheng went directly to the main hall of the Qingyu Pavilion, which was the place to take the task, but as soon as he entered the palace gate, he found that something was wrong.

In the main hall, there were twenty or thirty figures standing, either middle-aged or young, but there was no doubt that every one of them had a powerful aura surging on his body, Ye Cheng was secretly shocked in his heart, these dozens of people turned out to be condensation masters.

Everyone in the hall had a scroll of jade slips in their hands, and they were frowning and examining it carefully.

Ye Cheng wondered in his heart, usually there were a few people at most in this hall, how could so many masters gather at once today.

"C eighty-six, seventy-two, fifty-five, this is the mission credential"

Ye Cheng reported the number of the task he received, and at the same time handed a cloth bag to the deacon disciple, which was a part of the body of the slaying ghost.

The black-clothed disciple respectfully took the cloth bag, and after checking it, he swiped it lightly on Ye Cheng's token.

"One cabinet entry task, another ordinary C-level mission, the final settlement of nine hundred and sixty dedication points, if there are strange events in these three locations in the next month, you also need to continue to deal with it"

Ye Chen nodded and took the token.

This regulation is naturally to prevent the people in the cabinet from indiscriminately filling up the number and lying about the task, anyway, he really killed the ghosts in these three places, and he is not afraid of the subsequent verification.

Out of the main hall, next to it is the worship hall, and like the main hall, the worship hall is also crowded, forty or fifty people are constantly flipping through the books exchanged.

There was a circle of people in front of the exchange table, some people changed the fine iron armor, and put it directly on the body and went out of the main hall, and some people changed the sword and spear, and hurriedly went out of the temple door with it in their hands, without exception, everyone was frowning and looking solemn.

Originally, Ye Cheng wanted to continue to exchange things for the miscellaneous chapter, but when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but stop thinking.

"It's not right, something must have happened during my absence"

From receiving the task to coming back, Ye Cheng only took less than two months, which is already extremely fast, after all, he has completed three tasks in one go.

He thought about it, and went directly to Meng Yuan's mansion, if something happened, he would definitely not be able to hide it from Meng Yuan, the foreign envoy.

In the octagonal pavilion, the drizzle has fallen on the residual lotus, and some of the trees in the courtyard have fallen yellow leaves.

"Brother Meng, this is ......"

Ye Cheng looked at Meng Yuan with some surprise, his originally rich body was suddenly thin, and the two dark circles under his eyes were extremely obvious, you must know that Meng Yuan was a master of the Condensation Realm, what could make a master of the inner family work like this.

"It's really time for Brother Xian to come, it's the first time I've rested in the past two months, and you're here," Meng Yuan said with a wry smile

"But what's going on in this pavilion, I just came back from the cabinet mission and the other two tasks, and found that the atmosphere in the pavilion seemed to be quite dignified, so I came directly to visit my brother."

"Oh, so the virtuous brother has completed three tasks in a row

Okay, okay, so that the virtuous brother can avoid this matter clearly."

Meng Yuan's face was relieved, and then he said slowly

"Recently, Hei Yuan didn't know what was crazy, and he actually committed a crazy crime in the Eighteen Cities of Beining, oh, by the way, this Hei Yuan is the largest ghost force in the Northern Spirit Domain, and it is also the main opponent that our Qingyu Pavilion here should deal with.

"In the past two months alone, there have been nearly a hundred strange incidents, the pavilion master has issued a death order, all members of the pavilion above the condensation level must complete three black list tasks this year, no, almost everyone in the Qingyu Pavilion is back"

Meng Yuan rubbed his eyebrows, "Now there is chaos outside, even I haven't slept for five or six days, but fortunately, as a foreign envoy, I don't have to force the completion of the task, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise."

After Meng Yuan finished speaking, his face still looked palpitating

"With Brother Meng's strength, the task on this list should also be handy."

Seeing Ye Cheng's puzzled look, Meng Yuan shook his head

"This time it's different, those ghosts in the black abyss suddenly went crazy, although the pavilion has tried its best to investigate, but there is no way to accurately locate the strength of those ghosts, some people have taken the task of condensation level in the past, but found that it is simply a ghost thing at the transformation level"

"It's been just these two months, because of this kind of thing, fifteen condensation masters have died, this is internal news, it's good that Brother Xian has heard it, don't spread it"

Ye Cheng was taken aback, only then did he realize the seriousness of the problem, imagine a condensation-level master in the past, but suddenly encountered a ghost at the level of ghosts, what the end can be imagined.

"What does Hei Yuan want to do, isn't there any news from the pavilion master's side?" Ye Cheng asked

"The pavilion master has already gone to investigate, it is said that this time the matter is quite big, and even someone from above has come down, in short, the virtuous brother has completed three tasks, and he can be regarded as escaping this catastrophe"

"Is it the Xuanyu Pavilion?" Ye Cheng asked, although the powerful branch was designated as the Purple Jade Pavilion, it was the difference in resource distribution from the Qingyu Pavilion, and it was the Xuanyu Pavilion that really led the Northern Spirit Domain.

"It's not just the Xuanyu Pavilion, I heard that there are higher-level figures coming," he reached out and pointed upwards.

Seeing that Ye Cheng was still going to ask, Meng Yuan diverted the topic, obviously not wanting Ye Cheng to continue to ask.

"Almost all of the members of the Qingyu Pavilion in Beining have come back in this incident, if the virtuous brother has anything he wants to change, he should start as soon as possible, if he goes late, he is afraid that he will be replaced."

Meng Yuan took a sip of tea, and the rain was strung into beads along the corner of the pavilion and was blown into the court by the breeze.

Ye Cheng heard that Meng Yuan didn't want to mention more, so he didn't ask, and his heart moved, and he asked another question.

"As far as I can see, there seem to be only sixty or seventy people in the pavilion, is this the only person in my Qingyu Pavilion?" Ye Cheng wondered

"What do you mean by this person," Meng Yuan rolled his eyes

"There are about more than ninety masters above the condensation level of my Beining Qingyu Pavilion, plus more than a dozen people who died in battle, this is almost all the masters."

Seeing the confusion on Ye Cheng's face, he continued

"My Qingyu Pavilion recruits people, under the age of twenty to enter the inner family, or under the age of thirty into the condensation, under this condition, even if it is nearly 10 million people in the eighteen cities, there are only a few people who are qualified to enter the pavilion, plus the inner family who die in battle every year, seventy or eighty people are already a lot."

A look flashed on Ye Cheng's face, Qingyu Pavilion recruits people not because of strength, compared to strength, they value potential more.

The two conditions, no matter which one has already turned away nine out of nine martial artists, and with a population of nearly 10 million in the eighteen cities, only one person in 100,000 people can be qualified to join the Qingyu Pavilion, which is a place where truly worthy of the name of genius gathers.

"I don't know what the pavilion master and deputy pavilion master are in the pavilion, the younger brother is new to it, and he really doesn't know what to do in the pavilion."

Ye Cheng's eyes flashed and he asked again.

"Okay, today my brother will tell you about the structure of this Qingyu Pavilion, my Beining Qingyu Pavilion Master is a master of the Tianyuan level, and below the pavilion master are the eight deputy pavilion masters, each of the deputy pavilion masters is the peak master of the transformation level, and the top combat power in my pavilion, and the deputy pavilion master is our condensation level of external affairs envoys and internal affairs envoys. ”

Ye Cheng knocked on the side, and finally asked the names and characteristics of the eight deputy pavilion masters, these were not information that needed to be kept secret, but Meng Yuan was very happy to tell Ye Cheng the information of several people.

"The blood-robed sword refers to Zhu You, and the nine-sword Guiyuan refers to it, it seems that the red-robed man is Zhu You"

Ye Cheng's face was a little ugly, the Qingyu Pavilion in charge of the Eighteen Cities only had eight deputy pavilion masters, it was conceivable that the identity and status of the deputy pavilion master, he quietly killed the deputy pavilion master, and the waves caused by it may be greater than he imagined.

Meng Yuan didn't notice Ye Cheng's face, but said to himself.

"This matter is not something that can be ended in a day or two, if the virtuous brother still has an offering point, he might as well change a few more talismans to protect himself, otherwise in a few days, I am afraid that I will not be able to change the contribution point."

Seeing that the Fu seal was mentioned, Ye Cheng asked

"Could it be that this sigil will still be replaced?"

"Of course it will be replaced, there are so many talismans that Xuanyu Pavilion puts down every year, and if you finish changing, you can only wait for next year, this is still in Qingyu Pavilion, if it is in the world, you may not be able to exchange it for a talisman even if you have gold and silver."

"Could it be that the production of this talisman is extremely difficult" Ye Cheng couldn't help asking, he was still in a blank state for many things in the transcendent world.

"It's hard to say, it's not difficult to say, it's not difficult to say, some ordinary runes, if you're lucky, warriors like you and me can also draw it, if you're unlucky, you may not be able to succeed once even if you paint it thousands of times."

"That's how the talismans in the pavilion came by chance?" Hearing this probability, Ye Cheng's heart was not only cold, but it could only succeed once thousands of times, how could this be done.

"Of course not, all the runes in the pavilion are refined by the special runes in the Xuanyu Pavilion, the biggest difference between the runes and us is that they can condense the runes, and they can control the success rate of drawing runes at more than fifty percent by relying on the runes. ”

"What can really condense the talisman is the qualification of one in a million, which is more difficult than becoming a martial artist, and once you become a talisman, it is directly a guest that all major families have to compete for, even if it is a beginner talisman, the status is comparable to that of a martial artist in the Tianyuan Realm, but it is not something that we small martial artists may be able to compare."

Meng Yuan couldn't help but sigh

"Then Brother Meng didn't try to be this talisman master" Ye Cheng's eyes flashed and asked

"How to try, parsing the ciphertext for the sigils, the texts for getting started, and the huge resources needed for practice, these things are not things that a small foreign minister can try"

Meng Yuan had a helpless look on his face, and he laughed at himself a little.

Ye Cheng sighed lightly in his heart, the blockade of extraordinary power in this world was stricter than he imagined.
