"Oh, what task?" Cheng Qian was stunned when he heard this, in his eyes, although Ruoshui had a refining period of cultivation, it was still a little difficult to complete some high-level tasks.

As far as he knew, the high-level tasks of the Golden Armor level were usually nine deaths and one life, and even if it was an ordinary refining period, it would not be able to complete the task intact.

"Senior Brother Cheng doesn't know that during the ten years you left, a lot of major events have happened in Tianyun Holy City. Just a few years ago, the Red Maple Valley, an alchemy sect in Tianyun Continent that had been inherited for thousands of years, was wiped out overnight. Ruoshui Dai said with a slight frown.

Hearing this, Cheng Qian's face changed slightly, although he didn't stay in the Tianyun Continent for long, he was still clear about some sects in the continent, this Red Maple Valley was not a big sect, but there were two Supreme Elders with the strength of the sky, and in a place like Tianyun, they could definitely be regarded as middle and upper-class.

Red Maple Valley entered the Tao with alchemy, and its reputation has been good for many years, and I have never heard of any enemies, such an alchemy sect is naturally protected by Tianyun Holy City.

Under the protection of Tianyun Holy City, he was still destroyed, not that Cheng Qian didn't believe it, but he was really shocked.

"How is this possible?" he knew that Ruoshui would not lie to him, but he was still a little incredulous.

"At first, Xiaomei also thought it was impossible when she heard such a thing, but the truth is true, it was not other sects that destroyed Red Maple Valley, but an evil cultivator in the late stage of refining, and it was rumored that she acted angrily because of some kind of elixir. Ruoshui saw Cheng Gan's face, and naturally understood the other party's mood at the moment.

Cheng Qian, as a cultivator in the Void Refining Period, was even more surprised when he heard this, an evil cultivator in the late stage of Void Refining single-handedly slaughtered a sect, which was absolutely unheard of.

In the case of Cheng Qian himself, although his strength far surpassed that of his peers, it was absolutely impossible to destroy a sect overnight.

Of course, there are no surprises in the realm of cultivating immortals. This kind of thing does happen all the time.

Hearing Ruoshui's words, Cheng Qian seemed to already know about this mission, and his brows furrowed slightly and asked, "Senior Sister Ruoshui's next mission, is it to arrest this evil cultivator?"

Ruoshui only has the cultivation of the refining period, and this evil cultivator can also slaughter a sect with the same cultivation, and his strength must be extremely strong, Cheng Qian really can't figure it out, how can Ruoshui take on this task?

Could it be that there is something hidden in this?

"Yes, this mission has been released for several years, and the senior brother who took this mission has basically never returned. Senior Brother Cheng don't need to be surprised. Although this mission has been listed as highly dangerous by the Holy City, and the little sister was hesitant for a while, since the last time I went out of the city, I accidentally bumped into a senior brother in Golden Armor and no one killed me, so I had to take this mission. Ruoshui knew Cheng Qian's doubts, and hurriedly spoke.

Cheng Qian was puzzled in his heart, and he also knew that Ruoshui would not be untargeted, just waiting quietly.

"My little sister went out of the city some time ago because of some things, and it was at that time that I happened to meet a senior brother in Jinjia who took over this task. The senior brother didn't know what to do. Unexpectedly, he directly found the evil cultivator who was hiding everywhere, and started a fierce battle with the evil cultivator. That evil cultivator is too powerful, little sister, I can only hide in the distance and be cautious, when Senior Brother Jin Jia was killed by the evil cultivator. I could clearly see that the cult had performed the Dance of the Morning Light and fled. Ruoshui swallowed a mouthful of saliva and continued.

"Dance of the Morning Light?" Cheng Qian frowned.

Ruoshui's expression was solemn, and he said calmly: "The Dance of the Morning Light is a unique technique of my Shadow Clan monk, once it is cast, the whole person will be like the morning sun, disappearing without a trace in an instant. ”

Hearing this, I finally understood. He said, "So, this evil cultivator is a member of the Shadow Clan?"

It's no wonder that Ruoshui will take on this extremely dangerous high-level mission.

"Xiaomei is not sure if this person is a Shadow Clan monk, but in the process of fighting. Look at the spells he casts, which are extremely aggressive and full of dark aura. Ruoshui Dai frowned, and seemed to be a little unsure, if it was really a Shadow Clan monk, this race of heaven and earth elves, Ruoshui could definitely sense it, and then spoke: "Our Shadow Clan belongs to the Heaven and Earth Elves, and is extremely sensitive to any breath, he can never be my Shadow Clan monk, Xiaomei took this task just to find out the reason, how did this person get the secret technique of the Shadow Clan." ”

Cheng Qian didn't know what the Shadow Clan's exercises were, but the inheritance of a race was seen in others, even if it was him, he would never let it go.

"I understand what you mean, but when are we leaving?" After Cheng Qian heard it clearly, he hurriedly agreed, although this matter had nothing to do with him, but when he thought of this kind of high-level task, once he completed it, the reward would definitely be very rich.

"If Senior Brother Cheng doesn't have anything else to do, we'll leave tomorrow. Ruoshui nodded and said.

Next, after Cheng Qian learned about the reward of this mission, he didn't stay long, and strode away as soon as he left the Tianxing Palace, and disappeared into the crowded streets the next moment.

After returning to his cave mansion in Huaxixi, Cheng Qian's brows furrowed, and he learned from Ruoshui that the evil cultivator who destroyed the Red Maple Valley didn't know where to hide now.

But fortunately, Ruoshui seems to have learned about this person's whereabouts through other channels, otherwise Ruoshui would not have taken on this task.

For the rest of the time, he sat in his cave mansion, controlling the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder and refining the Nine Colors Thunder Beads.

Although he didn't know what means that evil cultivator had, now that Cheng Qian didn't have the Heavenly Evil Divine Sword in his hand, he could only make more preparations. I heard Ruoshui say that the man's exercises were a little evil, and it happened that Tianlei had a good restraint zuò.

One night later, he finally refined a large number of nine-colored thunder beads, and when the sky was faintly bright, he escaped from the cave without hesitation.

A few hours later, after meeting at the agreed place with Ruoshui, Cheng Qian sacrificed a flying boat and galloped away in a certain direction of Tianyun Continent.

"Are you sure you found this person's traces in Qingyuan Mountain?"

Cheng Qian stood on the flying boat and frowned slightly, holding a dusty jade slip in his hand, and suddenly asked.

"Little sister can't be sure, this jade slip was also accidentally obtained by me from a god transformation stage monk, in order to investigate the whereabouts of the evil cultivator, the little sister spent a lot of spirit stones. Ruoshui also said with some uncertainty.

"In that case, let's go to Qingyuan Mountain to have a look. ”

Cheng Qian put away the jade slip in his hand, didn't say anything more, and immediately urged the spirit boat to turn into a streamer and disappear into the void.

Two months later, in a fang market where there were not many immortal cultivators. Cheng Qian and Ruoshui sat opposite each other in a restaurant, with several plates of brightly colored dishes on the table, and the fragrance of the dishes was diffused from time to time.

It's just that the expressions of the two are different, Cheng Gan's face is expressionless, and he occasionally glances at the other people in the restaurant, but Ruoshui frowns, and seems to be a little annoyed.

This place is a gathering place for immortal cultivators near Qingyuan Mountain, Qingyuan Mountain is located in the southwest of Tianyun Continent, and the two of them have come here a month ago.

With that jade slip, the two of them found a lot of places, and every time there were clues. They went to investigate with great interest, but each time they were disappointed.

Now Cheng Qian and the others have spent a full month here, and they still have no trace of the evil cultivator.

"The things recorded on this jade slip are not all false, that evil cultivator should have been here once in three years, and it seems that he will have to run a few more times to find out where the evil cultivator is. Cheng Qian withdrew his wandering gaze, looked at Ruoshui with a sad face, and said lightly.

After two months of investigation, Ruoshui knew how rushed she was to take on this task, originally she thought that with the perception ability of the heaven and earth elves, she should be able to complete the task quickly. But I didn't expect that this evil cultivator would not be found. This made her interest fade a little.

"Senior Brother Cheng, let's stay for another month, if we still can't find this evil cultivator, I'm afraid this task will have to be abandoned. Ruoshui sighed lightly. There doesn't seem to be the slightest bit of confidence.

"Why give up this mission, since this person has been here, we can naturally find some clues. Moreover, this task is positioned in the advanced category, so it will naturally not be so easy to complete. Moreover, there is no time limit for the task. Cheng Qian said with some doubts.

"Senior brother doesn't know, now we can't waste all our time on this task, and it won't be long before the Hundred Clans of the Spirit Realm will hold a Thousand Spirits Conference. The reason why Xiaomei took on this task. The first one is for the task reward, because I have to participate in the Thousand Souls Conference, and if I want to fight with the same level of various races in the spirit world, I must strengthen my strength in the short term. Second, because the Shadow Clan was suddenly wiped out, the exercises I practiced were not complete, and now that I see the Dance of the Morning Light, where can I rest easy. Ruoshui shook his head, and said with a hint of regret flashing in his eyes.

"Thousand Spirits Conference?" He still heard a little about this conference, but he didn't go into depth, and now he was naturally interested when he heard Ruoshui say this.

"The spirit world will hold a thousand souls chaos war every 10,000 years, because the spirit world has thousands of races, and each race wants to be stronger, this thousand spirits conference is to refresh the race ranking, although the little sister is now in the Terran continent, I want to represent the shadow clan to participate in this thousand souls conference, the shadow clan is destroyed, I don't want the world to forget the shadow clan. Seeing this, Ruoshui said with a hint of expectation on his face.

Cheng Qian suddenly realized that although Ruoshui didn't say it in much detail, he already understood the significance of the Thousand Spirits Conference. However, if Ruoshui wants to represent the Shadow Clan in the war, this is a bit unrealistic.

Let's not talk about whether there are any remnants of the Shadow Clan, even if there is, there will definitely not be many, the Shadow Clan was all the rage back then, the so-called people go tea and cool, since the Shadow Clan has become history, it is absolutely impossible to continue to let the world remember.

Princes and generals, who doesn't want their own racial dynasty to go down in history, but there are very few who can really be remembered for centuries.

The race of the Shadow Clan, if Ruoshui didn't say it himself, Cheng Qian would never know about this race of heaven and earth elves.

"I don't know how long it will take for this Thousand Spirits Conference to start?" Cheng Qian didn't want to pour cold water, but he was still a little interested in this Thousand Spirits Conference.

It is conceivable that most of the races in the spirit world will participate in the Thousand Souls Conference, including those high-level Terran monks from the continent, how can Cheng Qian let go of the opportunity to see this kind of grand event.

At the same time, he could also take this opportunity to inquire about Yun Qingtian's whereabouts, Cheng Qian didn't believe that such a grand event, Yun Qingtian's back disciples would not participate?

"There are still a hundred years to go before the Thousand Spirits Conference, and when you arrive, the three worshippers of our Tianyun Continent will definitely participate, after all, this is the glory of Tianyun. There are also restrictions on the Thousand Spirits Conference, such as the Transformation of God Stage cultivators cannot participate, only when the cultivation reaches the refining period, they can participate. Because the Thousand Spirits Conference is held once every 10,000 years, and when the cultivation reaches the refining period, the longevity will have 100,000 or even more. Ruoshui said.

Cheng Qian nodded when he heard this, how could there be no restrictions on this kind of grand event, and if the cultivators of the Transformation Stage participated, the ranking of ten thousand years would not change. The maximum lifespan of a cultivator in the Transformation Stage is only a few thousand years, even if he has obtained a good ranking in the Thousand Spirits Conference, once he can't advance to refining the void, this ranking will be refreshed again.

Only a cultivator in the refining period can ensure that the race ranking will not fall at any time.

"Could it be that there are Mahayana monks participating in the Thousand Souls Conference?" Cheng Qian immediately thought of something and immediately asked, if the Mahayana monks could participate, then how could they compete for the rankings.

"It seems that Senior Brother Cheng doesn't know any news at all, only the cultivators of the Refining Period and the Merge Period can participate in the Thousand Spirits Conference, even if it is a low-ranking race, there will be a Refining Void Period cultivator, unless it is a small family. Ruoshui chuckled when he heard this.

"In that case, I'm still very interested in this Thousand Spirits Conference, I don't know how to participate in this conference?" Cheng Qian's interest was great, even if there were Mahayana monks who participated, he must go and see it.

"This is also the reason why I don't want to delay too much time in the task of killing evil cultivators, there are countless high-level cultivators in the refining period of the Tianyun Continent, naturally it is impossible for everyone to participate, the Holy City will convene all the cultivators of the refining period in Tianyun before the Thousand Spirits Conference, and have a competition to compete for the place of the Thousand Spirits Conference, and those who can excel in the competition can naturally participate in the Thousand Spirits Conference. Ruoshui immediately spoke again when he heard this.

"It's interesting, it seems that you can't really waste time on this task. ”

There are still a hundred years before the Thousand Spirits Conference, and there are thousands of cultivators in the Tianyun Continent's Refining Void Period, but there will definitely not be many places to participate in the Thousand Spirits Conference, and I feel that it is too hasty to think of this.

"I believe that with Senior Brother Cheng's strength, he can definitely win the place in the Thousand Spirits Conference, I am optimistic about you. When it comes to the Thousand Spirits Conference, Ruoshui seems to have forgotten the sorrow just now.

Cheng Qian didn't say anything when he heard this, he smiled faintly and started to eat, there are still a hundred years before the Thousand Spirits Conference, and now his cultivation is already in the late stage of refining, he feels that it is necessary to try to impact the merge during this time, so that he is more sure to survive in the Thousand Spirits Conference.
