The time of cultivation is always very fast, and half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past half a month, Ning Yuan spent most of his time refining medicine, except for completing some of the morning classes of the inner disciples.

With the sect's contribution points exchanged for many medicinal materials, coupled with the natural advantages of the medicine peak, Ning Yuan refined many pills, helping his cultivation to rise to the tenth level of condensation.

Only one step away from breaking through the innate is possible.

Of course, the cultivation of swordsmanship and martial arts has achieved good results, and the Chiba swordsmanship, the leisurely sword step, all of which have been cultivated to perfection.

Early this morning, Elder Huang Zong personally visited and gave Ning Yuan a task.

"What, a birthday gift." Ning Yuan was stunned for a moment.

"Yes, seven days later, it is the eightieth birthday of the old general Yao of Tianhe County, and the Spirit Sword Sect attaches great importance to it, and I heard that the old general left a vicious illness in the battle that year, and he has not yet recovered."

"Therefore, Lord Zhong Feng spent seven days and seven nights refining a five-grade pill, and asked you to bring it to the General's Mansion on behalf of the Spirit Sword Sect to celebrate the old general's birthday."

As he spoke, Huang Zong took out a delicate jade box from his arms, a roll of maps, and put it on the table.

"Do I have to do it?" Ning Yuan grinned, this task was really a bit risky.

If anyone knows that he has a heavy treasure, he will definitely snatch it, and if he can't get it, he will have to play with all the pills.

Huang Zong naturally knew Ning Yuan's concerns, so he said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this, except for the five peak masters, only you and I know about this matter, and if you go out this time, we will identify it as an inner mission, in the eyes of outsiders, you are just performing a small task, and you will not suspect it." ”

In other words, Ning Yuan's mission is actually secret, no one will notice, and it is very safe.

Hearing this, Ning Yuan still hesitated, why didn't these old guys go to celebrate their birthdays in person, could there be anything that could not be done.

"But such a valuable thing, why doesn't the peak master go in person, I'm afraid there is something boring in it." Ning Yuan tilted his head and looked questioning.

Seeing Ning Yuan's questioning, Huang Zong secretly shook his head, sure enough, Ning Yuan, this kid is a monkey spirit, and it is not easy to deal with.

After pondering for a moment, Huang Zong finally decided to tell Ning Yuan the reason.

"Actually, General Yao and the five peak masters inherit the same lineage, but they have different aspirations, the five peak masters choose to stay in the sect and preach, while the old general Yao is determined to live in the common people, and chooses to fight for a lifetime to protect the family and defend the country."

"But thirty years ago, in a war, the old general and his wife were seriously injured, and the old general asked the Spirit Sword Sect for help, and in the end, the Spirit Sword Sect only had the ability to save the old general."

"But the old general was dizzy, how could he manage so much, he always thought that the Spirit Sword Sect was unwilling to save his wife, and in a fit of anger, he broke off the relationship with the five peak masters, and never returned to the Spirit Sword Sect."

"Thirty years have passed, and the five peak masters are still guilty, but they have also been paying attention to the old general's physical condition, and they know that the old general hates them, so they can't go in person."

"Therefore, the five peak masters can only drive you out."

Huang Zong's face had a trace of regret, he knew the relationship between the peak lord and the old general, but now he was like an enemy, which was really regrettable.

Ning Yuan's expression was slightly touched, it turned out that this was the reason.

Since this is the case, he will go on behalf of the Spirit Sword Sect.

"I understand, please tell the peak lord the elders, and I will definitely pass on their intentions to General Yao." Ning Yuan said seriously.

With that, Ning Yuan waved his hand and put the map of the pills on the table into the ring.

……

Tianhe County is one of the eighteen counties of the Nebula Empire, with a vast territory and a population of nearly 300 million.

And Luoyun City, located in the western part of Tianhe County, is one of the four main cities of Tianhe County, separated from the Spirit Sword Sect by nearly 30,000 li.

Ning Yuan led a purple electric dragon horse in the sect, traveled eight thousand miles a day, and galloped westward for three days and three nights, and came to a chaotic place, Wuyang Town.

It is said that there are a large number of outlaws in the town of Wuyang, and there are fierce battles every day, resulting in thousands of dead and wounded.

Every corner of Wuyang Town is full of rotting corpses.

"After three days and three nights in a row, even the dragon horse is a little unbearable, so he will rest here for one night tonight."

Ning Yuan looked at the purple electric dragon horse under his crotch, with some distress, he took Ning Yuan for 24,000 miles day and night, its state had declined, it was time to rest.

Although Wuyang Town is a land of chaos, there is no other choice at the moment.

Under the city gates.

"Stop!"

The two warriors intercepted in front of Ning Yuan, they were dressed in jet-black armor, thinking that they should be the soldiers guarding the city of Wuyang Town, but unfortunately, they have long been corrupted, and there is no doubt about the bandits.

"Boy, do you know the rules?" A soldier grinned and circled around Ning Yuan.

"Rules, what rules?" Ning Yuan looked at the other party and asked rhetorically.

"If you want to enter Wuyang Town, you must pay 500 gold coins." The other party smiled.

Hearing this, Ning Yuan's face was a little displeased, the other party's behavior was purely robbery, but Ning Yuan had something important to do, so he couldn't delay it in Wuyang Town.

In such a chaotic place, more is better than less.

Then Ning Yuan took out five hundred gold coins, handed them to the other party, and said expressionlessly: "Now, I can go in." ”

With that, Ning Yuan stepped directly over the two of them and walked in.

The two soldiers didn't care if Ning Yuan went or stayed, they didn't bother to take a look, they just sat in place and began to divide the spoils.

As Ning Yuan stepped into Wuyang Town, he saw its appearance clearly.

The shops on both sides of the street, and the residential areas scattered in groups, are all in a mess, piled up into ruins, and have become the homes of countless spiders and reptiles.

The atmosphere around is extraordinarily tranquil and chilly.

WhewW......

The cold and yin wind suddenly whistled by, and I don't know what it was blowing, and it hit the hooves of the dragon horse under Ning Yuan's seat with a bang, and the horse suddenly stopped.

The voice attracted Ning Yuan's attention, Ning Yuan glanced down to see what it was, and immediately, Ning Yuan's brows furrowed slightly.

It was a white, mutilated skull, human, with traces of age on the skeleton, perhaps a year or two.

After walking for a long distance, he found a dazzling light, which meant that Ning Yuan had come to the center of Wuyang Town, and the flow of people had increased.

The people wandering in this area are all human martial artists, and there are many condensation cultivators everywhere, and there are also many masters of the Innate Realm, all of them are outlaws at the end of the world, and they all have a cold murderous aura attached to their bodies.

"Find a place to stay first." Ning Yuan dismounted, led the purple electric dragon horse, and slowly walked towards an inn.

When the little guy in charge of reception at the door of the inn saw Ning Yuan, he enthusiastically took the initiative to take the purple electric dragon horse held by Ning Yuan.

"Yo, guest officer, are you sharpening or staying in the hotel? We have the best animal meat and wine, as well as the best comfortable rooms. ”

While walking, the little maid introduced the characteristics of the inn.

"Xiao Er, first give my dragon foal a hundred catties of raw beef and ten catties of spirits." Ning Yuan said very generously.

The purple electric dragon foal had driven Ning Yuan for such a long way, Ning Yuan naturally would not treat him badly, and would definitely let it eat and drink well.

"Uh, guest officer, your horses don't eat grass?" The little guy was stunned for a moment, and asked with a puzzled face.

"Haha, my horse only eats meat and drinks only strong wine, and if you don't give it, it will eat people." Ning Yuan looked at the little guy and said seriously, not like a joke at all.

The Purple Electric Dragon Horse is a substitute demon beast domesticated by the Spirit Sword Sect, which is a carnivorous demon beast, and it is so hungry that it even swallows people.

Hearing this, the little maid was instantly excited, and hurriedly asked someone to lead the horse away, and specially ordered to entertain the dragon foal with good wine and meat.

"Xiao Er, prepare another upper room for me, a table of good dishes, and a jar of immortal brew!"
