Chapter 16: The Hidden Demon Temple

Elder Sikong shook his head, pushed open the door on the bridge, and walked in.

The bridge is made of stone, which is very thick, and the door is made of wood, which is quite wide and thick, and it is not clear that it is old.

The bridge was wide and the water was fast, so the group divided into four groups and walked towards the opposite wooden gate, only to cross the bridge and arrive at Sunset City.

The Sunset City guard saw someone coming, and ran over in silver armor.

"What for? Do you have a pass? ”

Elder Sikong stepped forward and took out the pass issued by the border city.

"Release." The Sunset City guards retreated to both sides, allowing Elder Sikong and his party to pass by.

Elder Sikong was unhurried and led everyone towards the streets of Sunset City, where there was the stronghold of the Enlightenment Academy.

"Everybody follow me." Elder Sikong gave an order, and everyone hurriedly followed.

This Sunset City is not the same as Mo Ming imagined, the people here have swords on their bodies, even those who set up stalls and open shops, and there are weapons next to them, and it seems that they have the posture to take away the goods with a fight.

"There are only two things that work in this Sunset City, one is a spirit stone, the other is a fist, what the spirit stone can't solve, can be solved with a fist, even if you kill the other side, no one cares."

"But the most taboo thing in Sunset City is fighting, as long as you fight with others, it means that you have interests involved, so be careful to become the target of public criticism."

These were what Elder Sikong said to everyone, and Mo Ming naturally wrote them down.

A group of people followed Elder Sikong to turn left and right, and finally stopped at a shop called "Afterglow Blacksmith Shop".

"Shopkeeper, have you had any good iron lately? Come and help me fight a 777-pound weapon. ”

Elder Sikong tore out his voice, for fear that the people inside would not hear it.

"What kind of weapon do you need?" The shopkeeper was drowsy, but when he heard that there was business, his eyes rolled.

"Seven-story pagoda ......," Elder Sikong knocked on the table.

"Okay, please go inside!"

Elder Sikong led everyone through the front shop and came to the backyard of the blacksmith shop, where he met many clerks on the way, all of whom were three or five thick, and seemed to have inexhaustible strength.

"These shirtless clerks are trustworthy clerks who have followed me for more than ten years." The shopkeeper opened the backyard hall, which looked like a conference hall with many tables and chairs.

"You guys are here to recuperate first, and then I'll arrange the work, and I'll be back soon." The shopkeeper poured tea for Elder Sikong, asked him to leave, and everyone hurriedly returned the salute.

"Go ahead, there's no hurry."

Elder Sikong led everyone and watched the shopkeeper leave.

"Let's talk about the purpose of this experience first." Elder Sikong looked around at everyone, and with a wave of his hand, an enchantment to prevent prying eyes was arranged.

"This time I brought you out, it's not just to kill demon beasts, collect elixir, our Great Mo Dynasty has a foundation in this Sunset City, and similarly, the Spirit Beast Mountain Range, the Half-Demon Dynasty, and the Mermaid Dynasty have also been operating in this Sunset City for many years."

"Recently, there has been a mysterious force in Sunset City, they know the four major forces very well, and they specialize in robbing those who have no power, and those who are robbed only see them wearing the clothes of the four major forces, and their moves are secretive, which makes the four major forces in Sunset City turbulent, their status began to waver, and there have been many unnecessary bloodsheds."

"The existence of these people has affected the stability of Sunset City, so the academy sent us here, the first priority is to find out the purpose of this group of people, if you can break into them and find out their details, the academy will have additional rewards."

Elder Sikong heard a knock on the door and knew that the shopkeeper was coming, and with a wave of his hand, the door opened, and the shopkeeper entered the enchantment.

"This group of people has no stronghold in Sunset City, and it is preliminarily estimated that their stronghold is in the Spirit Beast Mountain Range, so you need to leave Sunset City and go to the Spirit Beast Mountain Range."

The shopkeeper took out the map, and the spirit beast mountain range on it marked a small circle.

"This is the internal map provided by the Spirit Beast Mountain Range, you all write it down."

Mo Ming glanced at it, the small circle on this map was not very far from Sunset City, and it was half a day's journey.

"Why don't you do it yourself?" Axe Yue looked at the shopkeeper and expressed his doubts.

"There are many masters in Sunset City, isn't it good to deal with this group of people who hide their heads and tails and directly end their lair?" Zhang Huan also spoke his mind.

"Young people are impulsive, this group of people knows Sunset City well, as long as we send strong people on our side, they can immediately know that the four major forces of Sunset City went three times, each time they returned empty-handed, and the next day they were retaliated against and arrested the people of the four major forces, so this time it is our turn to send people, and we must not repeat the mistakes of the past."

The shopkeeper hated the fifth largest force in Sunset City, after all, Sunset City's business had been affected.

"Okay, it's decided, early tomorrow morning, set off for the Spirit Beast Mountain Range, and then change all the clothes from your hometown, if you don't have one, just wear one, if you don't have it, don't go to the outside store to buy it, see if the shopkeeper has the right one here."

Elder Sikong took two steps, and it seemed that there was something to worry about.

"Tomorrow in pairs, take care of each other, don't startle the snake, expose yourself, there are many people on the opposite side, there are immortal-level powerhouses, that's not something you can compete with, pay attention to safety, and break up."

Sikong waved his hand, lifted the barrier, and went to the next room to rest.

Mo Ming held the black sword and sat on the stool, the shopkeeper had not yet arranged a rest, and everyone could only sit here and wait for the arrangement.

"Axe Yue, just now the elder said that the people of this fifth major force have immortal-level powerhouses, so are we spiritual level junior scum useful in the past?" Zhang Huan couldn't bear it and stirred up the topic.

"Listen to the elders, we only need to lurk in and find out the truth, and leave the rest to the academy." Axe Yue glanced at the people of the Martial Spirit Academy, it was not good to talk about their elders here.

"Oh, got it." Zhang Huan looked at it, and there were several pairs of eyes staring directly at him, so he didn't speak again.

"The elder said that there are two people in a group, there are ten people in our Martial Spirit Academy, just five groups, how do you divide the two academies?" The leader of the Martial Arts Academy is a bald head, named One Day, which is said to inherit a kind of ancient martial arts, not afraid of swords, and is very powerful.

"We are in a group of Axe Yue and Liu Yue in the Enlightenment Academy, Zhang Huan and Nai Qing are in a group, and the rest is me, who has just broken through the primary level of the Spirit Rank, is anyone in your Inscription Academy willing to join a group with me?" There are two girls in the Enlightenment Academy, and they need to be protected, otherwise it won't be good if something happens.

The corners of Axe Yue's mouth twitched, Liu Yue lowered her head shyly, Zhang Huan looked like you know me, and it didn't matter if he was there, after all, the strength was there.

"We've assigned it, you can go to the other side in the future, you need them to protect you." The people from the Inscription Academy have a girl named Mengxue, and her strength should be good.

The one called the future was a little boy, who should be the youngest of the group, who was a little shy at this time, just nodded, "um", and seemed to know that he was not good at fighting.

Mo Ming didn't care either, looking at the boy who was younger than himself and smiled.

"My name is Future, fourteen years old, water, earth and engineering attributes, you make me feel kind." Future smiled shyly.

"My name is Mo Ming, Mu Attribute, I will take care of you." Mo Ming patted the future on the shoulder, the inscription master has strong mental strength, but his actual combat ability is not strong, so no one objected to Mo Ming's words.

The shopkeeper didn't come to arrange the room until the evening, this time there were a bit of people, the shopkeeper's room here was not enough, and he could only grieve five people in a room, after all, martial artists practice, just need a quiet environment.

The next morning, Elder Sikong called for good news.

"That mysterious force has been recruiting troops recently, as long as it is a young man of the spirit level, he can pass their test and join the Hidden Demon Palace."

"So they're called the Hidden Demon Temple? It's a nice name. "Liu Yue seems to be quite interested in this force.

"Don't make trouble, Hidden Demon Palace, this name is not a good class when you hear it, everyone should be more careful, so as not to harm yourself and not say it, and even affect others." The axe Yue pulled Liu Yue aside, after all, it was his teammate, and it was not good to be too embarrassed.

"Then we'll make a plan and join the Hidden Demon Hall first." One day I picked up a weapon, and it was a wooden stick with a pattern on it.

"Then what are you waiting for, according to last night's allocation, let's go!" Everyone is gearing up and wants to do a big job.

Mo Ming changed into the clothes that his grandfather bought, coarse linen clothes, and stained his face a little more, just like when he was in the bamboo hut.

In the future, he will dress as a boy and become a little young master.

In this way, Mo Ming took the black sword and followed behind in the future, the marks on the map, the two of them had already memorized the markings on the map, and the future was very familiar with the terrain trend, and the two arrived at the destination before everyone.

It is a cliff, there are many grottoes, there are plank roads next to the grottoes, the plank road is smooth, ordinary people have no place to borrow, only people with wind attributes fly up, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

If the others want to go up, they can only use the vines hanging down from the cliff, there are not many vines, judging from the pile of dry vines under the cliff, it seems that they have been cleared by the people of the Hidden Demon Temple.

"Did you climb up?" This cliff, even if Mo Ming uses the wind attribute to fly up, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult, even if you are lucky, after going up, the meridians have no spiritual power, and they are not slaughtered by others.

"Pretty much it's okay." The future wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, if this height falls down, he will not die or be disabled, I really don't know what this Hidden Demon Hall thinks, as a stronghold on this, not to mention the difficulty of transporting materials, and the water source is not convenient, unless the people of the Hidden Demon Hall do not need to eat and bathe.

Mo Ming squatted down and motioned for the future to go up.

"Come, I'll carry you, I have a lot of strength, it's easy to climb up." Mo Ming patted his arm, although it was not very thick, but it did have some muscles.

Future smiled and lay on Mo Ming's back.

"It's so comfortable, it's so familiar." It's not the first time I've felt this way in the future, like a swallow returning home.

Mo Ming grabbed the vine with both hands, the wind attribute flowed, his body was much lighter, and he climbed towards the top of the cliff.
