Chapter 87: Ancient Ruins Appear
Although this strange sound wave does not seem to have much damage to objects, even if Cheng Xing uses it himself, he still feels an inexplicable discomfort in his heart when he listens to this sound, and depression and nervousness are constantly breeding, which is the result of Cheng Xing deliberately suppressing the power.
Rubbing his temples to relieve fatigue, Cheng Xing shook his head with a wry smile: "It seems that this sonic fighting skill is really not easy to learn, and if you are not careful, you will hurt yourself, but in the future, when you encounter an enemy who can't be solved, this is inevitably a strange trick." ”
Indeed, due to the extreme rarity of sonic fighting skills, not everyone has ever seen them, even if the other party knows this kind of fighting skills, because there is no obvious preparation stage, once released in close combat in actual combat, it is easy to shock the enemy to the ground and delirium, and the worst can also interfere with judgment, so as to provide sufficient time and opportunity for their next move.
"One more move and one more guarantee, with these things on my body now, it is not a problem to single out a five-star great fighter." Cheng Xing carefully calculated and took out the ice spirit bead.
The current Ice Spirit Bead only emitted a faint light, and it was obvious that the three of them had been frozen before, and they had consumed a lot of Cheng Xing's previous Dou Qi, this thing was currently the strongest combat power, and it was necessary to maintain sufficient Dou Qi reserves.
Cheng Xing put the Ice Spirit Bead on his knees and started cultivating again.
With the operation of the exercises, the rich fighting qi around him began to continue to surge towards Cheng Xing's body.
Feeling the pure energy entering his body, Cheng Xing's handprint changed rapidly, and a small fighting spirit emerged from the palms of both hands, and finally entangled towards the Ice Spirit Bead.
With the nourishment of this fighting energy, the faint light of the ice spirit bead began to slowly increase, and a suction force also appeared on its surface, helping Cheng Xing absorb the free fighting energy around him.
In this way, one person and one bead continued to absorb the fighting energy, so that a strong vortex appeared in the entire courtyard, fortunately, with the isolation of a protective cover, this overly strong attraction did not spread to other places, but from the outside, this vortex with strong suction power can still be found.
Even if the system was broadcasting the success of the Qi Gathering and Dispersion refining, it still failed to make Cheng Xing interrupt this kind of cultivation day and night.
It lasted like this for nearly half a month, and was finally broken by a voice.
"Cheng Xing, pack up, come to me to gather, the sect has assigned the task." Xue Xi's gentle voice came into Cheng Xing's mind, reminding him to pay attention to receiving information, but he didn't forcibly end his cultivation.
Listening to the familiar voice, Cheng Xing's tightly closed eyes slowly opened, and a mouthful of turbid breath came out of his mouth.
"It seems that there is a mission that must be participated, otherwise Uncle Xue would not have transmitted the sound like this."
After this period of contact, Cheng Xing found that what Xue Xi said was true, the other sect disciples have always had unfinished sect tasks, and he basically doesn't need to do tasks here, those trivial matters are directly exempted, and only very important tasks will be notified. And today, it is the first time that Cheng Xing has received a task of this level.
Seeing that the room was shrouded in the light released by the Ice Spirit Bead, Cheng Xing also breathed a sigh of relief, picked it up and felt the majestic fighting spirit inside, and then carefully put it away.
"The preparation that Uncle Shi said earlier should be this mission." Cheng Xing clicked a few times on the system panel, and after the two Qi Gathering Dispersers were successfully put into the backpack, he was ready to go out.
After this half a month of cultivation, Cheng Xing's strength is firmly at the peak of the one-star Great Dou Master, and he will soon be able to enter the two-star Great Dou Master.
Fingers slid twice on the jade ring, and the shortest path appeared in front of him, and the wings behind Cheng Xing shook suddenly, and his body turned into a little streamer and flew into the distance.
On the main peak of the sect, Xue Xi was suppressing the injuries in Xue Ling's body, Wang Cheng was organizing the rest of the disciples in the hall, and there were at least ten disciples outside the hall.
After flying into the main peak area, Cheng Xing looked at the many disciples lined up neatly in the square, and there were many Douwang powerhouses lined up in the air, and the flying ships on the edge of the square stayed for more than ten times, and many disciples were boarding the ships in an orderly manner, seeing this, Cheng Xing's heart was inevitably a little surprised.
"Why isn't it so lively on weekdays, but there are so many people today, is there really anything big?" Cheng Xing glanced at the square a few times, but was surprised to find that the lowest people in it were at the level of the Great Dou Master, and there were actually thirty or forty Dou Ling among every hundred people, and he couldn't help but wonder what was going on to make the people so excited.
At this moment, the people below also noticed Cheng Xing, and watched him quickly row across the largest square, and then swept over the long steps, directly into the buildings halfway up the mountain.
After stabilizing his body, Cheng Xing immediately walked towards the palace where Uncle Xue was, there were no more sect disciples along the way, and it seemed that they were all concentrated in the square.
Soon Cheng Xing came to the gate of the palace, and after seeing the many unfamiliar faces distributed inside and outside the palace, he was a little overwhelmed.
"Senior Brother Cheng, you are here, Uncle Cheng is waiting for you." When Wang Cheng saw Cheng Xing coming, he immediately completed the handover of the things at hand and took Cheng Xing to the hall.
Seeing the expression on Wang Cheng's face, this matter seemed to be very important, even the senior brother who liked to joke was so serious, Cheng Xing couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Brother Wang, what's the matter, on my way over..."
Without waiting for Cheng Xing to finish speaking, Wang Cheng replied first: "There are not many people along the way, all of them are concentrated in the largest square, right?" ”
Cheng Xing nodded hurriedly.
Wang Cheng just sighed lightly: "This matter will not be clear to you for a while, let's talk about it after seeing Uncle Shi." ”
In this way, the two of them walked quickly to the hall, and saw Xue Xi pacing back and forth in the hall, looking quite anxious.
"Senior Uncle, Senior Brother Cheng is here."
Seeing Cheng Xing's arrival, a smile appeared on Xue Xi's face, and then he clapped his palms, and more than a dozen disciples who were also dressed in white robes with Cheng Xing came out of the side hall, all with the snowflake-shaped badge of Yushamen tied to their chests.
And the leader is Feng Yao, who had several connections in Silver Ice City before.
"Since everyone is here, then I will briefly talk about why you urgently summoned everyone this time." Xue Xi didn't ink either, and distributed a map directly to everyone from the ring.
"This is the map you need for this mission, so please keep it." Xue Xi explained while drawing the scene on the map in the air with his fighting spirit.
Cheng Xing looked at the flashing red dots on the map, and there was also a pale blue area surrounded by several blue dots.
I saw Xue Xi pointing to this piece of light blue with a serious expression and said: "A month ago, I received a report from the affiliated sect, and in this area of more than 100 miles, abnormal phenomena have occurred one after another, according to the reports of the reconnaissance teams sent continuously before, there are the remains of an ancient battlefield here. ”
Speaking of this, everyone is talking about it, every time the remains of an ancient battlefield appear on the mainland, it will attract many forces to come to fight, after all, this is a big piece of fat, and it is likely that there are all kinds of fighting techniques left over from ancient times, and even high-grade pills.
Xue Xi's voice raised by a few points, suppressing the noise of everyone: "And there are signs on the surface, this area will thaw in half a year to a year, it is the scene of the warm land in spring, and the ancient ruins inside are a treasure land for the sect, and it is an opportunity and a great creation for you." ”
"Uncle Shi, did you tell us to go to the battlefield ruins first?"
"But the anger in this ancient battlefield is extremely fierce and dangerous."
"There are so many fighting skills buried under the snow, are you still afraid of these?"
Listening to everyone's chaotic discussions, Cheng Xing couldn't help frowning, thinking in his heart: "If this information is true, why do you want these low-level disciples to go first?" Shouldn't you send the Dou Huang Dou Sect level to go? It's not that simple. ”
Xue Xi coughed lightly and said: "For this mission, the sect will give a large amount of subsidies, including pills, exercises, fighting skills, etc., provided that you participate in and complete the task, of course, if you find the ruins and obtain items from them, they will belong to you." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's discussion came one after another.
"Uncle Shi, what kind of pills are these pills?"
"Master, what kind of fighting skills are these fighting skills?"
Xue Xi answered them one by one, quite patiently.
But in Cheng Xing's opinion, a sect is willing to spend so much effort on low-level disciples, and its purpose is likely to be only one, that is, to let these ordinary disciples explore the way and be cannon fodder!
Thinking of this, Cheng Xing couldn't help but retreat, after all, this ancient battlefield is extremely dangerous, no one knows what is hidden here, in case it is contaminated with any ancient remnant soul, it is not good.
"Senior Brother Cheng, wait a minute, our task is not this, Uncle Shi has other explanations."
A familiar voice sounded, Cheng Xing turned his head to look, only to find that it was Wang Cheng who wrapped the words in his fighting spirit and passed them on to him.
Soon, the rest of the disciples rushed out of the hall with great interest, rode on the specially prepared flying demonic beast, and flew towards the outside of the sect.
And Xue Xi looked at the many disciples who had gone away, and there was a trace of sadness in her eyes.
After bidding farewell to these Great Dou Master-level disciples, there were only Dou Ling level and five Dou King powerhouses left in the hall.
Looking at the remaining fifteen people, Xue Xi's eyes showed a trace of sincere pity, and then with a flick of her fingers, fifteen exquisite jade bottles floated out of the ring, accurately suspended in front of everyone.
"This is the pill prepared for you, which includes one Dragon Power Pill, five Qi Cultivation Pills, and five Body Cultivation Pills, your tasks are different from theirs, so you need to use these pills."
Cheng Xing listened to the name of the pill, his pupils shrank and looked at Xue Xi with a loving face, and he was shocked in his heart: "Actually took out so many five-grade pills, and there is such an elixir as Longli Pill that instantly improves strength, what kind of task is it, the sect will be so bloodletting." ”
"Uncle Shi, please also specify the task of the disciple." Feng Yao took the lead in accepting the jade bottle, knelt down on one knee and clenched his fists and said.
Xue Xi watched Feng Yao take the lead in receiving the jade bottle, she smiled with relief, and then said slowly: "This time the ancient battlefield ruins are located in the middle of the extreme north, that is, the closest to the eastern region. According to the information from the sect's undercover agent in the Xuanbing League, the Xuanbing Alliance has also been gathering disciples in recent days to prepare to enter this area. ”
"Sure enough, there is no such thing as a free lunch in the world!" After Cheng Xing heard this, he also secretly sighed in his heart.
"The reconnaissance team sent out before was very right in their hands, so this time, the sect decided to let the younger generation of the Xuanbing Alliance lose as many people as possible in this place."
For a while, the atmosphere in the hall became extremely solemn, compared to the cheerfulness of those disciples before, now the faces of the people in the hall were hesitant and entangled, although the sect would give corresponding rewards, but licking blood at the tip of this kind of knife is too dangerous for many people.
Seeing everyone's sad faces, Xue Xi also smiled bitterly, he didn't want his disciples to lose their lives, so he begged his own pockets to find these pills from the sect and other places.
However, the order of the sect was difficult to disobey, so Xue Xi had no choice but to continue: "In this operation, you can get a rich reward for killing the disciples of the Xuanbing Alliance, and you can get one point for killing a great fighter, twenty points for fighting spirits, and fifty points for fighting kings. ”
Hearing that a big fighter can only be worth ten points, Cheng Xing couldn't help but feel a trace of bitterness in his heart, and now he is just a big fighter.
"I pleaded with Venerable Xue, whatever is in my name, forty points can be exchanged for a low-level fighting technique or exercise, fifty points can be exchanged for a Douling Pill, and the rest of the five pills can be obtained by only thirty points." The corners of Xue Xi's mouth twitched slightly, but he had been grinding and soaking these conditions for a long time, and the master reluctantly agreed, and half of the cost had to be paid by him.
Listening to the earth-level fighting skills and the Douling Pill, the five Dou Kings led by them couldn't sit still, this Dou Ling Pill was an elixir that could directly improve the strength of the Dou King Rank, although they had been able to enter the vicinity of the Heavenly Frost Pavilion to cultivate, but they needed to improve the strength of one star, at least they had to retreat for more than a year.
"Uncle Shi rest assured, the disciple will definitely rush to the front, so that the Xuanbing Alliance will pay for the blood debt." The five Dou Kings pocketed the jade bottle in front of them almost at the same time, and said with their fists in unison.
With six people taking the lead, Wang Cheng also immediately expressed his position, and then everyone, including Cheng Xing, accepted the jade bottle and hugged his fists one after another.
Several Dou Kings took the jade bottle and said goodbye directly, and the rest of them followed closely.
Cheng Xing looked at Wang Cheng's small eyes, knowing that his task had not really been sent down.
When there were only three people left in the hall, Wang Cheng, Feng Yao, and Cheng Xing, Xue Xi slowly spoke: "You three, follow the guidance above, go to find medicinal materials, and remember not to let others know your goal." ”
Three specially made maps floated in front of the trio, each with a different location on it.
Cheng Xing looked at the map in front of him, which said "Extremely Cold Earth Vine" and "Ice Crystal Flower", these two are the necessary medicinal materials for refining the Cold Crystal Complex Pill, and then he came back to his senses, it turned out that the main thing he wanted to find was these two medicinal materials.
"The three places above, I have investigated on the spot, and they are the most likely to appear, you must be careful, according to the detection of the Snow Venerable and the sect over the years, the ancient ruins are also likely to be near these three places." Xue Xi explained earnestly, and it could be seen that he was really thinking about the safety of his disciples.
"Please rest assured, Uncle Xueling, the disciple will definitely bring back the medicinal materials to heal Senior Sister Xueling." Feng Yao said impatiently, his eyes staring at Cheng Xing viciously.
Feeling the bright hostility, Cheng Xing secretly scolded Shabi in his heart, but on the surface, he looked like he was nothing, directly ignoring Feng Yao's gaze.
"Hehe, I hope so, okay, you all go." Xue Xi smiled slightly, and then waved her hand to signal that the three of them could leave.
After Cheng Xing saluted Xue Xi, he was about to leave with Wang Cheng.
