Chapter 481 The Clues Left by the Palace Master

That night, after the two palace lords, Pursuing and Criminal Law, left the county capital for the northern war zone, the [-] sword wielders of the Palace of Swords, led by the palace lord, set off in a mighty way.

These 10 people are the elite force accumulated by the entire Fenghai County for hundreds of years.

Any one of them was once a leader in each state, and after many tests, he finally became a sword bearer.

Each of them has performed many tasks, whether it is killing or tenacity, they have experienced a lot of tempering.

It can even be said that they are the core of Fenghai County, and they are entrusted with the future.

But today, these [-] sword wielders were dispatched.

With determination, with swearing to death, with the words and oaths read in the past rituals, he marched towards the western theater.

Xu Qing stood on a mountain outside the county capital, concealed himself, and looked at the direction of the army in the dark night. In the cold wind, his clothes were blown up, and there was a sound of hunting, and his long hair fluttered. Fly behind.

Staring silently, after a long time, Xu Qing's eyes showed sharpness, he turned around, blended into the darkness, and embarked on the road to Zhaoxia Prefecture.

Like a lone wolf walking in the dark.

"Zhaoxia State..." In the darkness, Xu Qing, who was galloping at full speed, felt turmoil in his heart under this vigilance and vigilance.

Because Zhaoxia Mountain is in Zhaoxia Prefecture.

And the thing he longed for the most when he came to the county was to go to Zhaoxia Mountain, but he never thought that it would be done in such a way now.

During this journey, Xu Qing took out the jade slip given by the palace lord, held it in his hand and began to examine it.

Before the palace lord set off, he talked to him a lot and expressed his thoughts very clearly.

The sheriff's sudden demise is full of strangeness, and anyone may be behind the scenes.

And the contents of the jade slips also made Xu Qing's footsteps stop suddenly after a while, and his breathing became slightly short of breath.

"Shangguang Life Tribulation Pill?"

Xu Qing murmured in his heart that he had never heard of this kind of elixir as he had studied medicine deeply.

In the palace lord's jade slips, this elixir was introduced emphatically. This is a forbidden elixir that was strictly forbidden to be refined and destroyed in the period of Emperor Xuanyou, and it has long been lost.

Even the ban on this pill at the beginning was responded by all races, and the high-level leaders of every ethnic group hated this pill deeply.

This Life Tribulation Pill has no effect on ordinary monks, but to the rulers of all ethnic groups, it is an irresolvable or even immediate death Tribulation Pill.

Because of its principle, it is related to luck.

This pill can detonate the power of luck in a person, causing him to die instantly, and the more his luck gathers, the more powerful it will be. In history, this pill was first used in order to fight against the rule of the ancient spirit clan. Created in the light of the Fall.

Later, in the era of Emperor Xuanyou, this pill reappeared, poisoning many people who gathered good luck in the human race, and also poisoning many rulers of foreign races, and even three emperors of foreign races died in the hands of this pill.

Regardless of whether it is a human race or a foreign race, as long as they are in the Wanggu Continent, those in high positions will naturally gather the luck of their own ethnic group.

This luck can give oneself a certain degree of destiny, but at the same time, if this luck turns into a catastrophe, its backlash will be terrifying and astonishing.

During the half-month investigation, the Lord of the Sword-holding Palace directed all the clues to the Light-Life Tribulation Pill.

The pupils of Xu Qing's eyes contracted, and the message left by the palace master of the jade slip appeared in his mind.

"According to my investigation during this period, there are many possibilities for the fall of the old county guard, but among the many possibilities, there are only a few... that can simultaneously affect the prison secretary guarded by Kong."

"What is being suppressed in the Prison Department is the last clone of the sleeping god in the Immortal Forbidden Land. The method of suppression is related to luck, and it turns into the power of forgetting, making the god clone think that it is the spirit of the prison department. "

"Follow-up investigators can look through the files and look up Ding Yisaner. As for the Prison Secretary, Ding Yisaner is the epitome and also the representative. You can also ask my secretary Xu Qing. This son is the last guard of Ding Yisaner. It is also one of the future successors I plan to train, credible."

"Cell [-] in Siding District of the prison is formed by the scattered force of repression. Inside it is a finger of a god clone, and there is also a spirit formed by the luck of Fenghai County."

"The power of the divine avatar in the Immortal Forbidden Land is to make all those who remember him fall into endless doom. According to previous records, this kind of doom will become more terrifying every time until death."

"As for the role of Ding Yisaner's luck spirit, it is to erase the memory of the person who saw the gods and make them forget, so as to determine cause and effect."

"So, normally, no matter what happens in the county, even if the old county guard falls, it is impossible to affect the prison department, because the prison department has existed for too long, and has experienced the appointment and resignation of many county officials. .”

"And after I ruled out the few possibilities one by one, I finally set the target on the Shangguang Mingjie Pill. As for why this pill is associated, follow-up investigators can go to the [-]th volume of secret characters."

"But all of this is based on my investigation based on limited clues, and I can't wait for the time, and because the enemy is in the dark, I can't reveal my suspicions, and now that the war zone is in danger, the safety of Fenghai County is more important, and it is difficult for me to remain silent Go check."

"Therefore, I will send Shuling Xu Qing to investigate and verify a clue secretly."

"That's the morning glow."

"Because of the Shangguang Mingjie Pill, if you want to activate it, you need a condition, that is the light before the sun falls, and the retention time of this light is extremely short."

"It's just this light that occasionally forms on Zhaoxia Mountain."

"However, with the scheming and means of the person who made the game, this investigation is likely to be invalid, so we have to investigate. As for the result... If Kong dies in battle, please follow-up investigators to ask Xu Qing."

Standing on the plain in the dark night, Xu Qing silently put away the jade slips, turned his head and looked in the direction of the western war zone. After a while, his body shook and he galloped towards Zhaoxia Prefecture.

In this way, several days passed.

Just when everyone thought that he was still following the palace lord and had already gone to the battlefield, Xu Qing opened the hidden jade slips given by Shangxian Zixuan all the way, and arrived at the state border between the county capital and Zhaoxia state without a sound.

This state boundary area is not small, and occasionally there will be a special wind blowing between the sky and the earth.

Wherever this wind passes, countless space cracks will appear in mid-air, making it difficult for people to fly, and they can only gallop on the ground, and this wind only targets the sky and has no effect on the earth.

It is said that this kind of wind is a unique climate formed after the sun fell in Zhaoxia Prefecture and spread to all directions, which is called solar wind by local people.

When the solar wind blows, unless the cultivation base is surprisingly strong, it is difficult to resist.

You can only fly when the wind is over.

Only by walking through this area can one truly enter Zhaoxia State.

Here, Xu Qing galloped all the way, landed when the wind rose, and rose again when the wind scattered. During this rush, he also saw the huge impact of the war on Fenghai County.

Everywhere is a small country with human races, and people are panicked.

The villages and towns in the wilderness became more and more desolate.

Every person Xu Qing saw carried fear of war and confusion about the future.

As for the foreigners, even though it was the same, Xu Qing, who had changed the sword-wielding Taoist robe and put on an ordinary gown, could still see greed and ambition in the foreigners he met.

It is conceivable that once the battle zone in Fenghai County falls and the army of the Shenglan tribe rushes in, these foreign tribes in Fenghai County may immediately turn against the human race and take advantage of the chaos to search for everything.

"The palace lord's decree is correct. If these strong men from the foreign race are not recruited, the danger will be even greater."

There was coldness in Xu Qing's eyes. As he continued on his way, he also saw a place where there used to be human sects. At this moment, all of them have activated the mountain sealing formation, and most of the monks in it have been conscripted. battlefield.

In addition, the taboo magic weapon from Dazong also appeared in the world, and was taken over by the taboo magic weapon of the county capital and used in a unified manner.

In the past few days, the sky has changed hundreds of times, and every time the color of the sky and the earth changes, the wind is surging, and all directions are roaring.

Xu Qing knew that this was a taboo magic weapon being induced.

At this moment at noon, the sky roared again. Xu Qing looked up and saw bright lights flowing rapidly from the big net, exuding astonishing coercion. They were divided into two parts, heading to the west and north.

There, the power formed by these taboo magic weapons from the human sect will explode, causing huge damage.

The rumble of the sky every few moments reminded Xu Qing that the war was going on fiercely.

Xu Qing withdrew his gaze and continued walking.

Two more days passed.

At the edge of Zhaoxia Prefecture, which was only one night away, when dusk fell and the solar wind appeared in the sky, Xu Qing, who was galloping on the ground, saw a village.

Something is wrong with this village.

Everything in it is extremely unreasonable, completely different from the village in the cognition.

For example, the trees in the village do not grow on the ground, but in mid-air.

There is also a group of birds, floating in the sky, although their wings are flapping, they can't move forward, as if they are restricted there.

Under the solar wind, they are gradually becoming mutilated.

And the ground is even more weird, the houses in the village are actually built upside down, and even many areas sometimes disappear and sometimes appear, as if stuck.

At the entrance of the village, there was a bald dog with a human face, baring its teeth and growling at Xu Qing.

When Xu Qing glanced over, the dusk dissipated at this moment, and night fell.

In an instant, everything here changed again, and as it got dark, everything returned to normal, and it became a very ordinary small mountain village.

As for the dog at the entrance of the village, it also turned into a tall and stupid man, showing black and yellow teeth at Xu Qing, and constantly waving.

Xu Qing had no expression on his face. He had no time to waste here. In a flash, he bypassed the village and was about to leave.

But at this moment, the village behind him suddenly shook, and all the buildings grew slender legs, stood up from the ground, and chased Xu Qing.

Xu Qing paused, and when he turned around to look, all the buildings in the village squatted down, and the big stupid man at the head of the village, still baring his yellow teeth, waved at Xu Qing.

While smiling strangely, the whole village also emitted a wave of malice.

Xu Qing took a look and walked over.

The shadow hidden in the night behind him emitted excited mood swings, which continued to spread, and the sound of swallowing saliva echoed in this quiet night.

"hungry……"

Hearing the sound of the shadow's saliva, Xu Qing felt the emotional fluctuations in the shadow, and couldn't help but think that in the Great World of the Ancient Spirit Emperor, the shadow ate a lot of ghast while suppressing nausea all the way.

Finally vomited.

This kind of loyal performance made Xu Qing feel that he should be rewarded, so he walked faster.

In an instant, he arrived at the village he had found on his own initiative, and stood in front of the big stupid man who smiled at him at the entrance of the village.

Seeing Xu Qing's arrival, the big fool was about to speak, but the shadow behind Xu Qing couldn't bear it anymore, and rushed out.

In the shadow, the big fool disappeared.

As the chewing sound came out from the shadow and echoed throughout the village, all the buildings in the village trembled.

Eyes grew from the trees in these houses, and when they looked at Xu Qing, they all shrank rapidly.

"Let's go and eat." Xu Qing stood there with no expression on his face, and said lightly.
