Demon Domain, Demon Palace, Man Garden.

The garden is covered with mandala flowers, which come in eight colors, including purple, pink, red, white, blue, black, gold, and green.

The sun shines on the garden, and the mandalas stretch and bloom, like graceful women dancing, very beautiful, its fragrance permeates the surroundings, but don't smell it, because although the mandala is beautiful, it is highly poisonous.

There is a thousand-year-old banyan tree in the center of the garden, and there is a stone table under the banyan tree, two wooden chairs are placed on opposite sides, and there are roads on the front and back, left and right.

At this time, on the wooden chair on the right, there was a young man in a purple robe, seeing that his eyes were closed, his hands were on the armrests of the wooden chair, smelling the fragrance of flowers, so comfortable.

Suddenly, a charming voice came from the garden gate.

"Demon Venerable, I'm sorry, Yingniang has something to report."

Immediately, the Demon Venerable's eyebrows moved slightly, and he nodded his right index finger, and a majestic force emanated from his fingertips, instantly shaking the entire Man Garden, and all the mandala flowers dissipated tastelessly in an instant, and Ying Niang dared to walk in.

"I'm sorry Yingniang disturbed your rest." Ying Niang approached his side and gently flicked her red lips.

"It's all right, what do you have to tell you?" Demon Venerable's lips moved, his eyes still closed.

"Back to the Demon Venerable, the spies have come to report that Shen Ming has gone down the mountain to experience today, and the location is in Jiaoyang Town, Dongzhou." Yingniang said, the posture is respectful, enchanting and charming.

"Okay, this seat knows, so what stage is his current cultivation?" Demon Venerable asked.

"Listening to the information reported by the spies, Shen Ming has reached the third level of body refining last night." Yingniang responded.

"What, are you sure?!"

Demon Venerable suddenly opened his eyes, and his sharp gaze glanced at Yingniang, who shuddered and took two steps back.

"Yes, Demon Venerable." Ying Niang affirmed, her body trembled, and she didn't dare to look directly into his blood-colored eyes.

Then, Demon Venerable restrained his anger and shifted his gaze to the front, so that Yingniang dared to continue to look at his side face.

"Only the third order of refining the body, how could his cultivation be so slow?" Demon Venerable was puzzled and sighed.

If Shen Ming heard this, I don't know how he would feel, I'm afraid that the only pride he had would be wiped out.

"Demon Venerable, don't blame Yingniang for being too talkative, Shen Ming is just a mortal now, compared to ordinary cultivators, he is already fast." Ying Niang defended Shen Ming.

"That's right, it's because this seat has high expectations, but his cultivation speed can't be so slow, it should be that the potential in his body hasn't been stimulated, it seems that he has to add some stimulation!" The corners of the Demon Venerable's mouth were slightly raised, deep and unfathomable.

"Demon Venerable means ......"

Seeing that the Demon Venerable raised his right hand, a brown scroll appeared in his hand out of thin air, and then floated in front of Yingniang's eyes, and Yingniang took it with both hands.

"Ying Niang, you give this scroll to the Sect Master of the Dragon Yan Continent Sword Fighting Sect, he knows what to do."

"Yes, Yingniang takes the order!"

Yingniang bent down and bowed, but she didn't leave for a long time, as if something was wrong, Demon Venerable looked at her suspiciously, and said:

"Yingniang, are you okay?"

"Demon Venerable, Yingniang has a small request, I don't know if you can agree." Yingniang said shyly, her face slightly red.

"Something to say."

"Yingniang wants to pick a black mandala in the Man Garden and go back to cultivate, can the Demon Venerable agree?"

"Mandala flowers are highly poisonous, and if you are not careful, you will die, aren't you afraid?" Demon Venerable smiled lightly.

"I'm not afraid, although the flower is poisonous, I like it." Yingniang said fearlessly, her eyes full of affection.

The Demon Venerable smiled helplessly, looked at a flower bush in front of him, and in an instant, a black mandala flower broke through the ground by an invisible force and floated towards the Demon Venerable.

Seeing him touch the root of the mandala, Yingniang felt a trace of emotion in her heart, because the toxins in the mandala flower's body were being sucked away by the Demon Venerable, just like unpredictable death and darkness being shattered by the Demon Venerable and ceasing to exist!

This is undoubtedly the grace of the Demon Venerable, such an honor, I don't know how many demon women dream of it.

After a while, the non-toxic mandala floating flowers floated in front of Yingniang's eyes, and Yingniang took it excitedly and thanked:

"Thank you, Demon Venerable!"

"Little things, go get busy, this seat is going to rest."

"No, Yingniang retired."

Yingniang looked happy and turned to leave.

The Demon Venerable closed his eyes again, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and whispered, "The second move of this seat, it's time to enter the game." ”

Dongzhou, Jiaoyang Town.

Shen Ming and Shen Xue found an inn where they would stay for a month.

This time, they went down the mountain to experience, and there was an important task in the process of training, that is, to make money.

The daily expenses of the sect are all costly, food, clan clothes, weapons, medicinal materials, items, etc., these are all bought with money, and they will not fall from the world.

In the town's taskbar, there are various types of work, 360 lines, which will go to whichever line.

And Shen Ming, if they want to find a job, they must have both, and at the same time make money, they can also get experience.

In fact, every line has the meaning of experience, the key is how you think and how you want to develop in the future.

For example, the work of refining weapons and alchemy, you can not only make money, but also learn how to forge weapons and how to make alchemy into medicine, and if you want to engage in this industry in the future, you also have a foundation.

At noon, the wind and the sun are beautiful, and the blue sky is like a wash.

Shen Xue, Shen Ming, and all the disciples came to the taskbar, each picking their favorite and suitable job.

"If you want to become stronger, you must improve your cultivation through actual combat." Shen Ming thought to himself.

"Xiao Ming, what task do you want to choose?" Shen Xue looked at him with clear eyes, silently looking forward to it in her heart.

"Hunt the beast and capture the beast pill." Shen Ming replied softly, fighting with the beast can not only improve cultivation, but also seize its inner pill for money, killing two birds with one stone.

"Looks like we're on the same page." Shen Xue said with a smile and patted Shen Ming's shoulder.

"You're going to hunt beasts too?" Shen Ming asked.

"No, I'm going to pick this!"

Shen Ming looked at the notice she pointed to, which said to look for a black mandala flower.

"Senior sister, are you looking for flowers?"

"That's right, the mandala is the flower of the demonic realm, and black is the noblest variety of the mandala, symbolizing unpredictable darkness, death, and wandering love."

"It is recorded in the book that the mandala is highly poisonous, but it is so beautiful that it can only be seen, not touched."

"It is rumored in the world that the Demon Venerable came to the world a hundred years ago, carrying the seeds of the mandala and sowing them everywhere, maybe we also have them here, anyway, you are also going to hunt in the forest, this just happens to go together, no opinion, right?"

"Of course there is no opinion, how dare you have an opinion, let's go later." Shen Ming showed a wry smile.

"That's good, maybe Senior Sister can still protect you, so you can steal the fun." Shen Xue was full of confidence.

Shen Ming smiled inwardly: "That's not necessarily. ”

Subsequently, Shen Xue told everyone and said solemnly:

"All disciples listen to orders, if you choose a dangerous job, it is best to go together, safety first, you must return to the inn every night to take a roll call, are you clear?"

"Clear!" All the disciples responded in unison.

"Okay, let's go our separate ways."
