On an unnamed island.
Cheng Buzheng, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, Cheng Buzheng recovering his magical power and paid no attention to the Desolate Beast that had been blasted to death.
The cold-faced youth stepped forward, collected the Desolate Beast's corpse, and then returned to guard the spot.
The sky gradually darkened.
At this moment, Cheng Buzheng, who was sitting Secret Chamber, suddenly opened his eyes. A glint of light flashed in his eyes, which was especially noticeable in the dark Secret Chamber.
Immediately.
Cheng Buzheng put away the puppet again, transformed into a ray of light, and continued on his way.
More than twenty days later.
Cheng Buzheng stood in the air above a sea area, gazing at a distant island, and murmured:
"We finally made it within three months!"
This island is Xuanli Island, which is three thousand miles in circumference. Its shape resembles a conical hat, hence the name ' Xuanli Island '.
At this moment, streaks of spiritual light fell and rushed out.
immediately.
Cheng Buzheng linger any longer and transformed into a beam of light, flying towards the Immortal City at the center of the island.
Upon entering Xuanli City, one finds that the city's prosperity rivals that of a small market town.
Although the number of cultivators cannot match the bustling prosperity of a medium-sized island Immortal City.
Almost all the cultivators were at the Qi Refining Stage stage, but the buildings they owned were generally quite nice.
--Though the sparrow is small, it has all five cards!
Even the Earth Fire Chamber, this city has one, and apart from lacking Teleportation Hall, it has all the necessary facilities!
Cheng Buzheng walked along, looking around as he went.
Not long after!
Cheng Buzheng arrived at the City Lord Mansion and directly presented the ring.
See here.
The guards on both sides of the gate dared not neglect him. One of them led him into the living room, served him tea, and then served him with utmost care!
The other person immediately ran to report it.
Upon receiving the guard's report, the city lord of Xuanli City immediately took out several crimson Talisman, muttered a few words, and then raised his right hand, which transformed into several beams of light that rushed out of the City Lord Mansion and split into several directions.
Immediately afterwards, the city lord of Xuanli City walked directly into the living room.
In the living room, Cheng Buzheng was playing with the teacup in his hand when he suddenly looked up and looked outside. Then, as if he had thought of something, he resumed his casual waiting.
The guards, who were carefully attending to their duties, became uneasy upon seeing their senior suddenly make a move, fearing that they might be mistreated in some way.
After reviewing the situation and confirming that there had been no oversight, he felt slightly relieved.
Just then, the city lord of Xuanli City entered the living room.
Upon seeing Cheng Buzheng sitting in the chair and sensing the unfathomable Spirit Pressure, he showed a respectful expression, quickly bowed, and then clasped his hands in greeting:
"I am Kong Ying, the city lord of this city, paying my respects to the new Garrison Commander!"
Then, he asked in a low voice:
"May I ask how you are addressed, sir?"
Cheng Buzheng said calmly:
" Cheng Buzheng "
During the conversation, Cheng Buzheng sized up the City Lord Kong in front of him.
This City Lord Kong was a burly man with broad shoulders and long arms. He wore a light yellow robe, and his square face exuded masculinity. Judging from his appearance, he was around forty years old, and his body radiated the Spirit Pressure of Late Qi Refining Stage.
However, just as Cheng Buzheng sizing up the other party, City Lord Kong was also cautiously observing Cheng Buzheng eye, fearing that he might offend the senior in front of him.
After all, the future safety of this city rests entirely in his hands.
A short while later.
City Lord Kong withdrew his gaze from his peripheral vision, a warm smile spreading across his face, and began to speak:
" Garrison Commander, I have already informed Guardian Si, and he should be arriving soon!"
"I have already informed the deans of all the academies in this city. After they have met with Guardian Si, I will have them come to pay their respects to you."
Upon hearing this...
Cheng Buzheng and smiled:
" City Lord Kong, you've put your heart into this."
"I wouldn't dare!" City Lord Kong quickly shook his head and said.
" Garrison Commander, you flatter me."
Immediately, City Lord Kong turned his head to look at the guard on one side and said:
"Get out!"
The guard then bowed respectfully and withdrew.
A short while later.
Sitting in the living room Cheng Buzheng seemed to sense something, put down his teacup, and looked outside!
Suddenly, an elderly man with a ruddy complexion appeared outside the hall.
When City Lord Kong saw the old man, he quickly bowed and said:
" Garrison Commander, this is Garrison Commander Cheng!"
The ruddy-faced old man sensed the Spirit Pressure emanating from Cheng Buzheng and began to examine him.
Immediately, Guardian Si stepped forward a few steps and went straight to the point, saying in a hearty manner:
"I originally thought you would arrive in a few more days!"
"I didn't expect you to arrive so early, fellow Daoist."
Cheng Buzheng noticed the other party's impatient tone and roughly understood the reason.
It is precisely because he cannot peacefully cultivate during his guard duty that the other party is in such a hurry. Perhaps the other party also wants to complete the handover as soon as possible so that he can continue his secluded cultivation.
After all, cultivation is a cultivator's primary task!
"It's not exactly early, just a few days ahead of schedule!"
Cheng Buzheng smiled and let it go.
Upon hearing this...
Guardian Si smiled slightly and said:
"Fellow Daoist, as the date for your mission approaches, you'll understand my urgency!"
Then, he sighed softly and continued:
"Everything else is fine, but the spiritual energy is too thin, and it's impossible to cultivate in peace."
"A few scattered Demon Beast and Desolate Beast are manageable; the cultivators on the island can handle them. However, if a large group of Demon Beast and Desolate Beast appears, the cultivators on the island are completely unable to cope. Sometimes, even second-tier Demon Beast and Desolate Beast appear."
City Lord Kong quickly clasped his hands in greeting and said:
" Guardian Si, you've worked hard all these years!"
After saying this, he bowed deeply!
"Alright," Guardian Si waved his hand and said.
"You are no different; this is simply my duty!"
Then, he turned his gaze to Cheng Buzheng and said:
"Fellow Daoist Cheng, let's hand over the mission!"
Cheng Buzheng smiled and nodded, saying:
"Very well! I understand your feelings, fellow Daoist. I'll take up your time."
The two then exchanged rings, each leaving a mark on the mission information!
Then, the Guardian Si took out a Jade Talisman, handed it to Cheng Buzheng, and said:
"If you encounter Demon Beast or Desolate Beast that you cannot defeat, you can use this Sound Transmission Talisman to request help from Huanqiu City!"
"Of course, it's best not to use it if possible. I believe you understand this principle, fellow Daoist."
Cheng Buzheng smiled, took the Jade Talisman, and said:
"Thank you for the reminder, Fellow Daoist Si. I understand!"
He also understood that once he requested help, he wouldn't get a single thing from the Demon Beast or Desolate Beast, even if he contributed his efforts!
Asking for help means losing something, but when faced with Demon Beast and Desolate Beast that are impossible to resist, one has no choice but to give up that benefit.
After all, no amount of profit can compare to one's own life!
After the task handover is completed.
Guardian Si smiled and said:
"Fellow Daoist, I hope we will meet again someday. I take my leave now!"
Cheng Buzheng nodded with a smile.
Immediately.
The other party vanished in a ray of light.
