Chapter 69: The Gift of the Torch
Hades and his party.
Yan Jing's harvest can be said to have completely exceeded expectations.
Not only did he have a deeper understanding of the origin and role of the Dragon Tiger Yama statue, but he also reached an agreement with the underworld that guarded this heaven and earth, and won an extremely precious opportunity for the earth.
"I saw in the newspaper that the new general was mentioned, and his appearance was ......"
Staring at the man in front of him, the surprise when he came became determined at this time, Bai Ruosu continued,
"That's you, isn't it?"
"That's right, this is considered a reward from the Underworld, after all, as an outsider, breaking into the lair of the Shinto people alone, and successfully assisting the Underworld in sealing the extraterritorial heavenly demons, I really took a lot of risk, and I deserve it."
Yan Jing didn't intend to hide Bai Ruosu from this matter.
After all, as he said before, Bai Ruosu will become the channel of communication between him and the underworld in the future, and these things will have to be told to her sooner or later.
"If I remember correctly, you are a visitor from outside the world, you don't belong to the city of Xudu at all, and you don't even have any connection with this world, why would the Hades give you the position of a Hades general, and even let you accept the offering...... How is it possible for a living person to bear the power of incense? ”
The speculation in his heart was verified, and Bai Ruosu only felt that things were becoming more and more ridiculous.
She recognized Yan Jing's credit.
The problem is that the reward offered by Hades is unreasonable.
It is important to know that when a living person receives an offering, he or she generally has to lose his life, because it is impossible for the person to be offered to bear this vision.
"Eat and drink enough, how about walking around the nearby streets, just to consume food."
Without explaining the reason for becoming a mortal general, Yan Jing stood up and changed the subject,
"It's been a few days since I've been here with you, and I haven't enjoyed the street market scenery of the capital city, so you're not a competent host."
"You hid your identity and deceived me first!"
Although he complained, Bai Ruosu still put down a few copper coins on the table and took Yan Jing to a more lively neighborhood nearby.
Even though there was an accident at the festival two days ago, life in the capital city continued.
The streets are still thriving.
"I love this city, not only because it's so different from the world I live in, but more importantly, I see peace and stability here."
The two walked side by side on the street, Yan Jing didn't have an umbrella, so he could only take the one in Bai Ruosu's hand, prop it on top of the two of them, and said with emotion,
"The world I live in...... No, it should be said that the country I live in has been as peaceful as yours in the past, but the invasion of the extraterritorial heavenly demons has caused turmoil on all sides, and there are a large number of casualties every day. ”
The scene of the moment when the mushroom cloud rose appeared in his mind, and Yan Jing's expression was a little gloomy.
Bai Ruosu walked beside him, his face was stunned and difficult to hide.
She couldn't imagine the scene Yan Jing described, nor did she know that the world in which the latter lived was so turbulent.
Thinking of this, Bai Ruosu suddenly understood the reason why Yan Jing had descended on the capital city and was willing to be driven by the underworld.
"That's right, I want to ask Hades for the arrangement of the sealing gate, and Hades obviously thinks further than me."
Glancing at Bai Ruosu, Yan Jing looked down and said,
"Do you know the world outside the city?"
The city can be said to be a super city, but the world is obviously not the only place in the city.
"I grew up in the city of Xudu, and according to the books, the outside of the city should be a wasteland, a dangerous realm, and even an area that has been ravaged by extraterritorial heavenly demons."
As a native of the city, Bai Ruosu, like everyone else, thought about what it was like outside the city when he was a child.
It's just that neither her parents nor her colleagues in the Three Laws Division know much about the world outside the city.
"The city of Xudu can survive to this day, relying on the Hades to sit in charge, but have you ever thought about it, the population of this city is destined to expand in a stable environment, and the consumption of resources will continue to grow, sooner or later, you will have to step into the so-called 'wilderness', face the threat from another space, the sealing door is just a door after all, and the monsters outside the door are always there!"
In fact, all Yan Jing originally wanted was the Domain Sealing Gate technique.
However, in the communication with Hades, he became more and more aware that the latter had actually developed a sense of crisis, thinking about himself and the future of the city.
Not only Cui Yu and Zhong Kui, but also King Yama was aware of the urgency of the situation.
This battle was indeed a great victory for the underworld, but the extraterritorial heavenly demon that was sealed was only one of the monsters that had destroyed the Shinto after all.
Just like Yan Jing said, the Domain Gate does have a protective effect, but it also completely restricts the development of the capital city.
If this continues, one day the extraterritorial heavenly demons will be strong enough to break through the Domain Sealing Gate and forcibly descend on this world.
At that time, Hades will come to the same end as the Shinto of the past.
Only by going out can we find a real way out!
"You just said that I will be the mouthpiece and eye of your communication with Hades, which means that ...... Hades intends to use this opportunity to cooperate with your world? ”
It was only at this moment that Bai Ruosu finally sorted out what the three things Yan Jing said earlier represented.
"At present, the plan is only in the testing stage, no one knows if it will succeed, the key lies in you and me, which is why I came to see you again before leaving."
Returning the umbrella in his hand to Bai Ruosu, Yan Jing turned to face her and walked backwards into the snow,
"Hopefully we'll see each other again."
"You ......"
Taking the oil-paper umbrella, Bai Ruosu looked at Yan Jing who turned away, suddenly reacted, and took two steps to say something.
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept from the corner of the street.
Snowflakes drown out the sight ahead.
Wait until the wind stops and the snow falls.
Yan Jing was long gone.
Only in front of me was a light cyan wind swirling, and a fragment hung in the center.
"The fragment of Erlang God's three-pointed two-edged knife, it took too much effort to bring it back, and I only chose this one, which should be a commemoration."
While reaching out to take the fragments, the wind whirlwind sent Yan Jing's last words to Bai Ruosu's ears,
......
Alone in a dark space.
The extremely quiet environment allowed Yan Jing to hear his breathing and heartbeat clearly.
He could feel that he had returned without incident, only this time there was another accident where he had returned.
"The Domain Sealing Door technique has been detected, please hand it over to the remaining apostles."
The torch suddenly sounded in my ears.
A few meters in the darkness ahead, a bonfire was lit to illuminate the charred brown ground surrounded by wild grass.
It was also at this time.
Yan Jing keenly smelled that the air began to fill the air with some scents that had never appeared in the remaining space before,
It's like the smell of a scorched lake after a forest fire burns out, mixed with blood......
Is there really a lot of room here?
Confused in his heart, Yan Jing followed the torch's instructions, walked to the bonfire, and took out a jade wat from his bosom, which was engraved with intricate incantations, and sometimes a streamer flashed on the surface.
"Please throw the wat into the bonfire."
The torch gives a hint again.
Yan Jing stretched out his hand, but stopped above the bonfire, looking at the dark space around him, his gaze was not focused, he just shouted loudly,
"This technology is just as important to my world, and I can give it to you if you're willing to copy it to me!"
Negotiating with the torch as an apostle of the remnant is like death at all times.
Before doing so, Yan Jing would consider it carefully, but after this incident, he was convinced that he could get the answer he wanted.
"After three days, the jade wat will be back in your hands, and it is your reward."
The torch gave an answer, and Yan Jing did not hesitate to let go, letting Yuwat fall into the bonfire.
The next second.
The bonfire went out, and the surroundings were plunged into darkness again, and the smell they had just smelled disappeared in an instant.
Yan Jing put his hands back in his pockets, his face calm.
It's not that I'm worried about the torch repenting, but I'm thinking about what it was.
The sight of the campfire and the smell in the air proved that it was another world, not a special space created by the torch.
Coupled with the fact that the torch took the initiative to ask for the domain sealing door technology, could it be ......
Where the torch originated?
Mixed thoughts swirled in Yan Jing's mind, and before he could come up with a reason, he was interrupted by a glimpse of the resurface:
The bell in front of the Soul Hall sounded, and the Bodhisattva in Sun's dyeing workshop was twisted and changed
Wangxiang Tai witnessed the ghost wandering back, and the four generals who fell into the gods outside the technical bureau were reckless.
Lingxiao Treasure Palace, Yaochi Wonderland.
Grand Festival.
Alone in the face of the Shinto, rampage through the tide of aberrant corpses.
The picture is finally frozen in the appearance of Yan Jing stepping on the branches of the Extraterritorial Heavenly Demon after the activation of the Deathcore Doom.
"A special connection between the Remnant Apostles and the Underworld has been detected...... Verification is complete! ”
"Obtain the special title [Immortal]!"
"The injuries of the remaining apostles have been fully repaired, and the fire point is consumed: 30."
The settlement report of the otherworldly event is as follows:
The main quest is completed, and the progress of the otherworldly exploration is 30%.
Over-complete the Recruit event and earn 100 Merit Points.
[Apostle privilege elevated, currently at the Moonlight level]
(Meritorious points can be used for the use of special functions of the Torch, including World Search, World Return, Torch Bazaar Meritorious Trading, etc., please explore the remaining apostles on their own)
(The Conscription World will soon open the merit exchange advent function)
The reward-weighted calculation is complete.
The settlement evaluation of this otherworldly event mission is ...... Unparalleled!
The Apostle's authority has been elevated, and the current level is Moonlight, and the rewards of otherworldly events are weighted to 300%!
[Reward 1: Ascension to the Mysterious Realm (Foreign Body)]
[Reward 2: Seed of Space (Foreign Body)]
[Reward 3: Randomly select a rare sublimation quality item, two random directional lottery opportunities]
[Reward 4: Space Link (Exclusive Permission)]
[Reward 5: 3,000 Torch Points]
Look at the information given on the torch panel, especially the first two items in the rewards.
Rao was already prepared, and Yan Jing was stunned for a few seconds before he could react.
There is no doubt that the mission was not only a complete success, but also far exceeded the expectations of the torch.
The strength of the reviews and awards speaks for itself.
The main quest only requires Yan Jing to explore the Domain Sealing Gate technique as much as possible, which in itself is an extremely ambiguous requirement.
In other words, what the torch thought from the beginning was that Yan Jing just had to do his best.
Unexpectedly, the latter, with his own ability, actually succeeded in gaining the recognition of the Hades, not only to retrieve the complete version of the Sealing Door technology, but also to have the layout of the Hades.
By the way, he also asked Hades to agree to try to dock with Earth.
This feat alone was enough to surpass the role played by Yan Jing at the combat level.
Wushuang commented, Yan Jing deserved his name.
Of course, Yan Jing didn't have the heart to think about these things right now, his attention was already completely drawn to the first two rewards.
After being reminded by the Hades, Yan Jing realized that the statue of the Dragon and Tiger Yama was actually a treasure given to him after the heaven and earth where Jingjiang Town was located, and all the torch did was to convert it into props and then hand it over to himself.
For this reason, Yan Jing once felt that he had lost, but now he only feels that the torch's ability to "pick up leaks" is really admirable!
Thinking of the torch that suddenly disappeared before he left the Spirit Realm, Yan Jing was almost certain that it must have quietly stayed and collected the remaining core after the collapse of the Spirit Realm when the Spirit Realm collapsed and the soldiers of the Underworld returned.
As a result, they became the two most important rewards for Yan Jing's mission.
As for why Yan Jing was so sure.
The reason is simple.
The torch is hinted at in the description of these two items......
No, it should be said that the torch did not intend to cover it up at all, but told Yan Jing directly.
That's the gift for him!
【Ascension Mystery Realm Meditation Urn (Foreign Body)】
Quality: Unknown
Special effect:
The special talisman made from the content recorded in the sixth volume of the "Xuanjun Seven Chapters of the Secret Sutra" was originally one of the cores of the spirit world of the different space, and was lost in the turbulence of space due to the collapse of space.
【Seed of Space (Foreign Body)】
Quality: Unknown
Special effect:
The original state of the other dimension, if you can find a way to open it, you may be able to open up a new space.
Is there a more obvious hint than that?
It was precisely when he saw the hints of these two foreign objects that Yan Jing was so out of shape and excited.
If there is no problem with the torch's description of them, it means that as long as these two items are collected, Yan Jing may be able to open up a different space that belongs to him!
Perhaps Yan Jing didn't have the ability to be as strong as an extraterritorial heavenly demon, and he was able to run the spirit world into an independent small world.
As long as it can expand enough space, it is no less than the hole card of the Dragon Tiger Yama Statue for Yan Jing.
After all, this alien space is not like a torch space that can only store dead things, and it itself is Yan Jing's safest and most private refuge or private base.
Not to mention that Yan Jing also had an entire alien insect race in the Ruojiang Mountain Range.
Due to their own particularity, it is still difficult for them to leave the deep mountains and old forests, and the only ones who can help are the tiger fireflies who can change their appearance at will.
But if you wait until Yan Jing has his own space, he will go out and meet the enemy besieging him later.
Then there are good looks!
