Chapter 40 The Divine Stick is Empty

Time flies very quickly when he is practicing, and when Kong Ming wakes up again, more than a month has passed, Kong Ming paused slightly, looked inwardly at the meridians and various small universes in his body, and made a preliminary estimate that his strength had reached the middle level of the Venerable, and now he can be said to be a master of one side.

"Thinking about the current strength, as long as you don't encounter accidents, you should have some confidence in dealing with things in the future. Kong Ming said to himself, since he entered here, it has been a year and a half now, in this year and a half, except for a little time, it is to talk with Li Feiyang and them, or fight with the card demon, Kong Ming has spent almost all the rest of the time in improving his strength, and this kind of effort has also made Kong Ming harvest very rich, and also made Kong Ming from a god to the middle level of the Venerable, this is an achievement that can only be achieved in countless years in the Huatian Continent, Kong Ming only completed it in a little more than a year, of course, if he wants to, then he can pass the Guò Divine Stone, let him become a god in a short period of time, but, This method is not the same as what he expected when he first came, becoming a god here is simply a waste of talent, not to mention, he still needs the mortal tribulation to refine his body, and he needs the power of the heavenly tribulation to condense the divine stone.

"Hmm, it's time to go and meet Sect Master Tang and them, after meeting with them, start a new round of cultivation again, hmm, this time go to those places where the light element is the mainstay, after all, I have absorbed too much negative aura before, if I don't absorb some positive breath, when the time comes, I will make myself inhuman." If it's not a ghost, then it's really hard to cry and laugh. Kong Ming muttered to himself. Whether he admits that he is a member of the Yun family or not, he is branded with the Yun family. That is, he was branded with Mingzong, and whether he admitted it or not, he was an earl in the Huayuan Empire and the commander of the expeditionary force, and he needed to have considerable respect for the founding emperor, which was the most basic element of a soldier. In the past three months, he was fighting in different places, so he absorbed either the breath of despair or the breath of killing. If it weren't for the fact that he had all these things in the small universe, he would have been stained with layers of despair and killing. In that case, whoever is near Kong Ming will not be too comfortable, who wants to stay with an executioner, so he needs to go to some special places now, absorb some positive breath, after all, in many small universes, these are things that must be injected.

Walking out of the practice room, Kong Ming walked towards the place where Tang Mingye was. I just walked to a place not far from the outside of Tang Mingye's house. Kong Ming heard a sound of laughter coming from the center of the room, there were Tang Mingye's and a few other voices. Kong Ming didn't communicate much with the other people, and was not familiar with their voices. So he didn't care, but when he walked in, he found out. There are a few people in the hall who are wearing long robes that are completely different from those of Huatian Continent, and these people should be the powerhouses of Zhongzhou Continent. They sat on one side, and there were six people from Mingzong. The five sat on the other side, and Tang Mingye sat on the main seat in the center, after all, he was the temporary master of this place, and he was also the sect master of Mingzong.

After seeing Kong Ming come in, Tang Mingye gestured to Kong Ming and asked Kong Ming to sit aside, and Kong Ming sat down behind a few people from the Ming Sect. After the other party saw Kong Ming coming in, he didn't feel any surprise and continued the discussion between them. And the people on Mingzong's side just nodded to Kong Ming, even if it was over.

"Sect Master Tang, the current Zhongzhou Continent is not as good as before, if you can't give us enough sincerity, we can't cooperate with you, you must know that now the five major sects are extremely strict in the management of the entire continent, and if there is a slight mistake, our sect will definitely be wiped out. You really don't have much sincerity right now, you discuss it first, and we'll bother you in a few days! After speaking, regardless of Tang Mingye, their faces were extremely bad, and they left here directly with his people.

At this time, the entire lobby fell into a silence, and they really couldn't talk to each other.

"Alas, can you really only rely on yourself?" Tang Mingye sighed, this was already the first sect they had contacted and didn't know, but there was almost no one who was really willing to cooperate with them to fight against the five major sects, which also made them a laughing stock in front of others. Six of the seven people in the entire hall sighed together, only Kong Ming didn't know what was going on, so he didn't react. Seeing this situation, Li Feiyang explained the matter to Kong Ming in a low voice. At this time, Kong Ming knew that since the people of Mingzong came to the land of gods and demons, they began to constantly communicate with some strong people from the Zhongzhou Continent, wanting to know some information about the Zhongzhou Continent, and also to see if they could cooperate with each other, so that they would have some benefits for future plans. However, the result really disappointed them, if it was said that everyone discussed the situation in Zhongzhou, it was not a problem at all, anyway, it didn't involve anything substantial, all said that in the first year, Mingzong had a good relationship with almost every sect that entered here. Of course, because the five major gates of Zhongzhou and those first-class sects are almost all behind the cultivation of immortals, they did not send people here, and even when Mingzong was strong, no one came to this place to practice, and this situation also greatly facilitated the actions of Mingzong and others. However, no matter what, in the more than a year of exchanges, Mingzong was never afraid of revealing where he was, after all, they were not the only ones in the entire Huatian Continent who came here, they were the head of the Huatian Continent's original Chinese empire, and they couldn't keep it a secret, and they didn't need to keep it a secret anymore. However, once they want to cooperate with each other, no matter how much hatred the other party has with the five major sects, none of them dares to come out and cooperate with the Huayuan Empire, which shows the domineering of the five major sects and the fear of each sect for these five behemoths.

It is precisely because of this that Tang Mingye and the others are extremely disappointed, after all, it is very important to have a person who is familiar with the inside and whether there is a supporting force. According to the Art of War, know what you know. Invincible.

"Kong Ming, do you have any way. Let them have some contact with us?" Yun Pingtai asked Kong Mingdao. They had already discussed it many times with each other, but. There is no good way.

"You should know this thing better than I do, why are you asking about me?" Kong Ming asked a little strangely. From Li Feiyang's words, Kong Ming learned that they had been in contact with all the forces in Zhongzhou here, both openly and privately, individually, and collectively. However, there is really no way, no sect will deal with them, and the most intimate among them is only a few hints, that is, the control of the five major forces in Zhongzhou is very great. If you are not careful, a sect will end up in ashes, and under such high pressure, who would dare to come into contact with a hostile force like Mingzong? Being able to say two words is already the limit.

"We have all thought of what we can do. What we could do, we did. But the effect is poor, even if they have the will to join forces with us, but. I don't dare to have a word about this kind in the open and in the dark. It can be said that the restrictions of the five major sects on Zhongzhou have reached the extreme. There's really no way!" Tang Mingye said directly on the side, they didn't expect it. It will become such a situation, so that. Don't say it's going to participate in the ranking battle, it's about entering the Zhongzhou Continent. That's all a matter of hard work and death.

Kong Ming thought for a while and said, "I haven't been in contact with them, and I don't know what this looks like, after all, I really can't say empty words, but if things are really as they say, then things will take a very big turn." Everything is the opposite of everything, and now their restrictions on the sect have reached such a level, which also proves that their control over Zhongzhou has reached its weakest time. Now there is Zhongzhou Continent is like an active volcano, which can erupt at any time, or sometimes it only takes a click of them to start erupting continuously. I think that even among them, there are people who are fighting against the five major sects, but it is just because our people are weak and weak, and people don't look down on us, or rather, they don't trust us very much, otherwise, they wouldn't tell us this news. ”

Kongming's words were like an initiation, causing a tsunami in the hearts of everyone. That's right, the greater the pressure, the greater the strength of the resistance, and in this way, a new form is formed.

Tang Mingye is worthy of being the suzerain of Mingzong, the founding emperor of the Huayuan Empire, and has a very human-like sensitivity to the politics in it.

"Are you saying that the force behind the current control of the Zhongzhou Continent is a very normal phenomenon?" Tang Mingye said. His words really startled Kong Ming, Kong Ming didn't think that far, he was just talking about things.

"I don't know this, and I don't know what kind of charter the immortal forces behind them are. Kong Ming shook his head very innocently, what are you kidding, he can still say something about the military, but for politics, the person in front of him can make him countless distances, and he can't catch up with the other party.

"Well, Kongming's words reminded me of something. Yun Pingtai said, his two eyebrows wrinkled directly together, and everyone looked over when they heard him say this. In this way, Kong Ming couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he didn't expect an extremely normal word, which made everyone have so many associations, and looking at Kong Ming's eyes, like a hungry tiger, he pounced directly on him the next moment, and bit out more meat at him.

"I vaguely remember that when I was a little monk, Master said that there was a force in the Zhongzhou Continent, and they were backed by the Immortal Realm, in other words, they were the spokespersons of the Immortal Realm in the Zhongzhou Continent. At the same time, there is also a force in the deepest part of the Zhongzhou Continent, this force is usually inconspicuous and does not show water, but if there is a combat power higher than the Venerable One reaches the Zhongzhou Continent and destroys it, they will inevitably intervene, and once someone destroys the balance of power in the Zhongzhou Continent, then they will inevitably intervene in it, but it seems that their intervention is always invisible, so that the long-term contradictions are invisibly eliminated, so few people can know their whereabouts. ”

Yun Pingtai said that at that time he was still a minor monk, and he was carefree within the powerful sect of Mingzong. Therefore, his master's words are just to be heard as a kind of legend. Now that I think about it, I realize the importance of seeing and hearing sometimes. At that time, Master wanted to hint at something to him, but unfortunately, the person was no longer there.

Kong Ming didn't expect things to be so complicated, and what other immortal realms, the mortal world was pulled in, it was just a matter of a continent, as for it? Kong Ming didn't know, this may be a kind of backlash in human nature, in a place that has been suppressed for a long time. The greater the pressure, the stronger the resistance becomes, and from this aspect, what Kong Ming said is not wrong.

Or maybe it was because Yun Pingtai's words directly opened the memories of all the people who fled from the Mingzong disaster here, and finally many people spoke.

"Hearing Senior Brother Yun's words, I also vaguely remember that my master also said something similar, that is, in the secrecy of our Mingzong, there was an extremely strong man, and he has always been taking care of the development of our Mingzong. Moreover, it is said that he also practiced immortal arts, but for some reason, he did not go to the immortal world. Instead, he chose to stay in Zhongzhou. Li Muxue recalled with a bloody face. He didn't know that when he said this, Kong Ming's heart had long wanted to stop the other party's words. It's just that because it's too late, I can only watch this stupid stay there and keep remembering. Kong Ming could only sigh. Many times, on other people's turf. It's really hard to say, after all, there are walls and ears in the mortal world, and there are countless spells in the cultivation world to listen to this kind of thing, and it is impossible to prevent it, just like now, the guide and the goddess are monitoring them, and Kong Ming is not monitoring the other party.

"That's right, I've often heard my master say similar things, but it seems that he doesn't dare to say it explicitly, it's always vague and elusive. ”

"Well, my father mentioned some of them, but I didn't understand them at the time, but today it's really an eye-opener. ”

After a few people who fled from the Zhongzhou Continent finished speaking, it seems that all of them have similar experiences, but they are all forgotten in the ocean of memory, which makes it difficult for people to remember for a while, only similar memories or a familiar word can pull them out of the depths of memory.

Time passed quickly, half a day passed in a blink of an eye, and Tang Mingye and the three seemed to have gotten a lot of information, and more importantly, they knew something, that is, there were two behemoths in Zhongzhou, and they were using all the forces in Zhongzhou to carry out some games beyond ordinary people's imagination, and obviously Mingzong was the eliminated product of this game back then, and if they want to really rise in Zhongzhou now, they must either take refuge in one of the forces, or they have the ability to sing against them. In Tang Mingye's view, they are more willing to seek a safety in the gap between the two major forces, so that Mingzong can reappear in the Zhongzhou Continent, while in Kong Ming's view, he is more inclined to the latter situation, that is, with his own absolute strength, let them have the ability to compete in the Central Plains, rather than acting as someone else's card or a gun or something like that, you must know that these things usually don't end very well, and Kong Ming believes that the expeditionary force he led will inevitably have such an ability after ten years of fighting. Different understandings bring different perceptions, and of course, if Kong Ming says such things now, then these people will have to think that he is a madman.

In the end, the party dispersed directly, leaving Tang Mingye's room, Kong Ming did not return to the cultivation room, but walked directly to the mission hall.

"Hehe, you've only been back from here for a few days, and you're here again! The goddess laughed, for more than a year, the two of them can be regarded as familiar people, after all, Kong Ming is constantly fighting in various tasks, collecting things, and then going in to fight, but he stays here most of the year.

"What can I do? If I don't practice like this, it will only take more than a year to become a ghost under the claws of the card demon!" Kong Ming sighed. Although he knew that there was no way to deal with him now, it would be a pity if he didn't use this card. And from the bright side, this is also the motivation for Kong Ming's continuous efforts.

"Hehe, you don't have to be afraid of him now!" the goddess laughed directly, but then she realized something again and quickly stopped talking.

"Why is he dead?" Kong Ming asked directly, since the last time he was scolded by the card demon, until now he didn't know the current situation of the card demon, after all, he rarely stayed in this place in the past few months.

Looking at Kong Ming's eager eyes, the goddess was a goddess after all, and she reacted very quickly, and smiled directly: "You think so beautiful!"

"And what do you mean?" asked Ku Ming angrily.

"Didn't you find those people from Mingzong, and you're still afraid of that demon even if they were there?" the god laughed, and she couldn't help but feel a little proud of her reaction.

"Where is the truth of a thousand days to prevent thieves!" Hearing this, the sky couldn't help but darken.

"Hehe, okay, don't say these frustrating words, what kind of task do you want to choose next?" The goddess looked at Kong Ming with interest, among all the previous tasks, Kong Ming mostly chose some tasks to fight and kill, which made her feel that Kong Ming was a violent maniac.

"Is there an easier task? Not the kind of killing. Kong Ming asked directly, although there were countless tasks on the task wall for them to choose from, but Kong Ming thought that the quickest way was the introduction of this goddess.

"Oh, why don't you like to fight and kill all of a sudden, aren't you pretty good at this?" the goddess was a little surprised, when did Kong Ming change her character.

"Hehe, I'll get tired of eating too many similar dishes, look at it, I was like that before, and now I'm mixed up and down with murderous energy, making me feel like an executioner who specializes in killing. Kong Ming said directly. At this time, although Kong Ming said that he had received a lot of murderous energy into the small universe, he had fought countless times, and countless demons and monsters had died in his hands, which made him look like he did have a terrifying feeling.

"Haha! I thought you didn't know, do you know that with the way you are now, after leaving the land of gods and demons, you will definitely be able to attract many people who will subdue demons!" the goddess smiled happily. Everyone's experience can affect a person's temperament, and if there are many people, there is an invisible murderous aura on the person's body, which makes people feel very uncomfortable after approaching, and if they are close to the target, then the target will react in the first time. People who read a lot will have a scholarly atmosphere, although it is not obvious at a glance, but as long as you communicate with him for a long time, then it will be directly displayed.

"So, I need a mission that can wash away the murderous energy from my body. Kong Ming sighed. He didn't want to appear in front of a soldier like a butcher, he preferred to remain his commander.

"Well, there are a total of 3,000 quests here to take away the murderous aura from you. The goddess looked at Kong Ming with a smile.

"You just say one and forget it, how do I know which one is really suitable for me?" Kong Ming rolled his eyes and said. After the two spent more time together, their speech was not as restrained as before.

"Well, that's it!" the goddess nodded, only to see a task displayed on the task wall. Preached for three months.

Kong Ming was dressed in the clothes of a clergyman, and this completely black outfit made Kong Ming look somewhat divine. At this time, Kong Ming was in a temple, and below it were more than 3,000 devout believers, who were sitting on the table with their hands folded and their heads bowed, praying to a statue in the center of the temple. The Kongming was located on their right front, sandwiched between the cultists and the idols.

"Great Father, may you bless your faithful people Alexei in Heaven!"

Countless words similar to these were whispering in this temple, and those prayers were incarnated into invisible beliefs and constantly poured into the idols. Of course, these beliefs are not visible to those people, and Kongming is just stained with the light of his previous life, and under his powerful divine sense, he can see it directly. That's the power of faith. (To be continued......)
