Two days later

Two days later.

"The days are coming again?" a monster with a tiger's body and a human face covered in cyan hair suddenly spoke.

"Isn't it here again? Every ten years, a group of small people will be sent to Yorktown to die, and I don't know why?" It's just a little smaller than the one who just spoke.

"The complaints of the generals below could have flooded the valley of scales"

"But they only dare to say it behind their backs, who dares to find out. The smaller monster swept the tiger's tail and said disdainfully.

"That's nature, who dares to easily touch the boss's moldy head. Speaking of which, the boss has been dissatisfied for a long time, but the attack on Yorktown was decided by the Elders' House, and the boss can't help it. ”

"Tell me, the House of Elders ......," the smaller monster looked around for a while, making sure there was no "person" nearby, and then cautiously walked over to the big monster and whispered into the big monster's ear, "How did you come up with such a foolish method in the first place?" Although there are a lot of Yuan Beasts in our country, this Great Barren Mountain is also very large, so there is no need to save resources in this way, right?"

Listening to the words of the small monster, the big monster glared at the small monster fiercely, "Who said that the House of Elders is to save resources?

The little monster's two eyes as big as copper bells suddenly lit up, and he asked excitedly, "Big brother, do you know?"

"I don't know," the big monster replied crisply.

The small monster glanced at the big monster, and the tiger's tail swept left and right irritably, and a large tree with a diameter of half a zhang happened to be swept by the tiger tail of the small monster, and it was immediately broken into two.

"You don't know, I can't ask the boss, and the elders in the elders' house are naturally even less likely to tell me. The little monster said in annoyance.

"Why do you want to know? Anyway, there is no way to send us to death. The big monster said disapprerovingly.

"I also know that even if the old guys in the House of Elders were really stupid, they would never send us there. But I just want to know, I just want to be curious. ”

"I'm not curious, and I don't want to know. Anyway, you don't want me to ask the boss for you!"

"Big brother, why do you think so? Our boss has always hated attacking Yorktown, and he hates it when people mention it the most, so how could I make you break the boss's taboo? What do you think of me?"

"That's good. As long as you don't pull me in. ”

"Really, even the eldest brother won't help. The little monster began to sweep his tail in irritation again.

"Turke. ”

"The subordinates are here. ”

"Tomorrow we are going to attack Yorktown, you go and pick some weak and usually disobedient ones, gather them for me, and let them do something for me. ”

"Yes," Butcher commanded, walking out of the cave.

"Wait a minute. ”

"May I ask what else the marshal commands?" said Tuke, turning back again, respectfully.

"Tell them, kill an ordinary person and reward one spirit stone, kill a first-order cultivator, reward ten spirit stones, kill a second-order cultivator, reward 100 spirit stones. For the third, fourth, and fifth orders above, according to this ratio, the spirit stones awarded will increase tenfold. In the end, Marshal Ben had to pick out a name and give him a treasure of great value

"Also, let them use human ears as proof, and two ears count as one person. Well, that's it. ”

"Yes, then...... subordinates ...... Retire first?"

"Well, let's go down. The little monster waved his forepaw casually, and Butcher walked out of the cave.

"It's been a long time since I've tasted human ears. The human ear is crunchy and tender, and it tastes particularly chewy. Especially the ears of those cultivators, tempered by spiritual power, are even more delicious in the world. The little monster unconsciously drooled.

"Marshal Ben is looking forward to the early arrival of tomorrow. ”

There is a huge valley with a wide waterfall. The waterfall is nearly 100 zhang wide and cascades down from a high cliff. The rumbling sound of water amplified through the valley, making it even more majestic.

Under the waterfall, there is a majestic figure. That figure was about a foot long, far exceeding the height of ordinary people. At this moment, the figure was holding a giant sword more than three feet wide and seven feet long, slashing the water of the waterfall from above and down. Is this man crazy?

This man is certainly not crazy. With each of his slashes, a bright sword slash would be slashed. Jian Gang collided with the water of the waterfall, and the waterfall actually flowed back in that place.

The speed of the figure's slashing was not very fast at first, but gradually, it became faster and faster. A sword gang was connected to a sword gang, and in an instant, one hundred and eighty swords were swung. But the figure still seemed to be too slow, and slashed harder. Two hundred and eighty swords, three hundred and eighty swords, all the way up to one thousand and eighty swords. The figure seemed satisfied, and casually plunged the giant sword in his hand into the pool under the waterfall, and he himself also drilled to the bottom of the pool, and after a long time it showed its head on the surface of the water again. Immediately afterwards, he jumped ashore.

The shore is densely forested with trees and many unknown flowers. There are white, red, pink, and all kinds of colors. The figure casually picked a small yellow flower on the shore. Leaned close to his nose and sniffed carefully, as if he was not satisfied, he threw it casually and fell into the pool. Then, I started picking another one. This time it was a red flower, and I sniffed it carefully, and as if I was not satisfied, I threw it into the pool. In this way, nearly a hundred flowers were picked in a row, and the tall figure seemed to be dissatisfied, and the clusters by the pond were all flowers thrown away by the figure.

Finally, the figure picked a flower again and put it to sniff, showing a happy smile. Then he carefully inserted the flowers into his belt and walked happily into the depths of the dense forest on the shore.

As soon as we approached the forest, the sky immediately darkened. The sunlight was blocked by dense foliage, and there was only a small trace of it, which was able to break through the barriers and successfully break through into the dense forest. The tall figure stepped on that little bit of sunshine and jumped forward. Because there is so little sunlight penetrating the dense forest, there is often a long distance between the points of light. If you want to persistently step on the point of light, you must step at least five zhang away. This is an absolutely impossible task for ordinary people, and it is indeed simple and easy for a tall figure. The tall figure jumped five feet lightly and skillfully, and landed silently, not at all as domineering and heroic as when facing the waterfall, but looked extremely light and delicate. It is really unbelievable that such a tall strong man's movements are so light and so soft.

Jumping and jumping, and in a few moments, the tall figure came to a majestic white palace. The palace is huge, indescribably large. You stand on both sides of the palace and look at the palace, and you can't see the end of the palace at all. Moreover, what makes this palace amazing is not only its size, but also its location. The palace was built on top of a steep mountain with seventy-two iron cables on all sides. At this moment, the tall figure stood beside an iron cable. He patted the rope lightly, and then jumped onto it. Walking briskly along the iron cable, the sound of dangdang echoed between the cliffs. The bitter cold wind blew the iron ropes to and fro, swinging from side to side with a great amplitude. But the tall figure seemed to be walking on the ground, walking steadily and steadily. The swaying rope was like a winding path to him, and although it required a twist and turn, it didn't take much effort.

In this way, the tall figure had been walking among the cliffs for about a quarter of an hour, and the wind blew by, and the strange sound of whimpering and roaring sounded in the bottomless valley, which was terrifying to hear. Finally, the palace was right in front of him. The tall figure jumped and stood in front of the gate of the magnificent palace. He walked slowly towards the gate, and in a moment he was a foot in front of the gate. The whole gate is made of gold, and it is four zhang high and two zhang wide. On both sides of the gate, there were two guards in dark iron armor, although they were not as tall as the tall figures, they were much taller than ordinary people, and they were about a foot taller. When they saw the tall strong man, they immediately saluted him respectfully. The right fist slammed into his chest with a muffled thud. The tall figure only glanced at them, and there were no more actions or words. After a while, the tall figure moved, and he walked straight to the giant door, his two broad palms covering the left and right sides of the gate together, and then with a slight force, the gate was slowly pushed open. The bright sunlight outside the palace couldn't wait to burrow into the palace through the cracks of the larger and larger doors, as if even it was curious, what was inside this majestic palace?

When the gate opened, about two meters wide, the tall figure slowly walked into the palace. The sound of heavy footsteps echoed in the empty hall, and the sound was amplified by the four walls, becoming more and more majestic. The footsteps of tall figures kept ringing in the hall, like war drums, and they rang heavily for half an hour before they suddenly disappeared. The moment the footsteps disappeared, the palace suddenly became brighter than ever. Countless red candles are lit on all sides, illuminating the magnificent hall.

The tall figure was standing beside a divine throne at this moment. The back of the throne is connected to the whole hall, and the high back of the chair seems to be dissatisfied with the constraints of the palace, and it wants to reach into the sky. At this moment, there was no one on the throne, only red candles shining on the jewels set on the throne.

"You're here. An ethereal voice sounded, and I couldn't tell my age, I couldn't tell where I came from.

"Hmm" The tall figure nodded slightly, bowing to the empty shrine.

"How's the preparation for this year?"

"Same as in previous years. ”

"Hmm......" the ethereal voice paused, "What's going on over there at Burning Sky Ridge?"

"It's still flaming, but it's just ......"

"Just what?"

The tall figure hesitated, "It's just that it seems to be a little dimmer than usual." ”

"Dimmed?" the ethereal voice suddenly raised its volume, "Are you sure you're right?"

The tall figure nodded seriously and said slowly: "Although there is only a trace, I am sure that I am absolutely not mistaken. ”

"Oh~ I know, you go first, I'll have to discuss this matter with a few other old guys. ”

"Yes. The tall figure answered, but did not leave immediately as the ethereal voice said, but still stood firmly in front of the majestic and gorgeous throne.
