Going Out on a Mission

Chen Qingqing nodded and said, "Zhao Kingdom has four relatively strong forces, namely Hundred Ghosts Sect, Yin Corpse Gate, Blood Skull Sect and Heavenly Fiend Sect. Hundred Ghosts Sect is good at exorcising ghosts, and Yin Corpse Gate is good at controlling Corpse Refining The monks of, Blood Skull Sect like to refine their enemies into skeletons, so Heavenly Fiend Sect can enter the Tao. Apart from these four forces, Liu Clan is undoubtedly the most powerful. Qiang, Liu Clan is a force that emerged after the destruction of the Yu Clan. It is supported by the Hundred Ghosts Sect, and there are many Core Formation Cultivator."

"Yu Clan?"

Shen Long was slightly startled.

"Yu Clan has been inherited for hundreds of years and has strong strength. Core Formation Cultivator has at least five people. Junior Brother Shen should know Ten Fiends of Donghua Five Immortals!"

Chen Qingqing asked.

"Of course, they are all from Rogue Cultivator, Divine Ability is broad, the ten evil spirits are Core Formation Cultivator, and Five Immortals is Nascent Soul Cultivator. Could it be that Yu Clan provoked the ten evil spirits Five Immortals?"

Shen Long asked curiously, all major forces do not like to provoke high-level Rogue Cultivator, Ten Fiends of Donghua Five Immortals has a good reputation, Yu Clan should not take the initiative to provoke the ten evil spirits Five Immortals.

"Yes, I don't know how they provoked Master Mad Blade. Master Mad Blade committed suicide on Yu Clan Fortress alone. No one survived. Yu Clan's territory was quickly divided up by other forces. Liu Clan annexed most of the Yu Clan's territory. Heavenly Fiend Sect Very dissatisfied, Yu Clan and Heavenly Fiend Sect are very close, Heavenly Fiend Sect has taken in some of the Yu Clan's children, but Yu Clan has been destroyed for more than two hundred years, Liu Clan is now Zhao Kingdom's first cultivator Lineage."

Chen Qingqing said slowly.

"Master Mad Blade!"

Shen Long took note of this name.

"You have to think about hiding your identity. You don't need to ask for any information at the moment. What you have to do is to lurk. Mysterious Yin Marketplace is Marketplace opened by Yin Corpse Gate. The overall strength of Yin Corpse Gate is Four Sects of Zhao Ranked last among them, our intelligence personnel mainly operate in the territory of Hundred Ghosts Gate, and the intelligence network was destroyed by the Intelligence Hall of Hundred Ghosts Gate. Before you go to take office, I will train you for a period of time and teach you some lurking skills and methods of gathering intelligence."

Chen Qingqing said.

"Senior Sister Chen, our sect spent a lot of manpower and material resources to go to the Zhao Kingdom just to monitor the movements of Four Sects of Zhao? If there is really any change in Four Sects of Zhao, we can't detect it, right?"

Shen Long said doubtfully.

He didn't believe that Spirit Control Sect was just monitoring Four Sects of Zhao's movements, but he didn't know Spirit Control Sect's purpose of doing this.

"Junior Brother Shen, your authority is not high enough. I cannot tell you many things. Otherwise, if you are captured, the secrets of our sect will be revealed. I know your concerns. This sect has invested a lot of resources on you, not just to let you die. This is also an opportunity for you. If you can make great achievements, you may be selected as 72 Talents."

Chen Qingqing's tone is full of temptation.

Shen Long will naturally not eat the pie painted by Chen Qingqing. It is so easy to achieve great achievements. Other intelligence personnel have already achieved great achievements. The general will be outside and military orders will be ignored. When Zhao Kingdom arrives, it will be good if he does not surrender to the enemy. As for the mission, it depends on the situation!

"I will recommend a Second Rank Talisman Master to you as soon as possible, but time is running out, so you should make more preparations! Over at Azure Cloud Peak, I have already said hello to Junior Brother Liu, but he does not know that you have been promoted to the Foundation Establishment Realm."

Chen Qingqing said.

"Senior Sister Chen, can the extra allowance be paid out for ten years at a time? It can't be paid out year by year, right?"

Shen Long said that he should try his best to obtain resources for cultivating immortals for himself.

Chen Qingqing nodded and said, "I can give it to you for ten years at a time, and I will give it to you when you leave."

"That's good. If nothing happens, I'll go back first. I hope you can recommend a Second Rank Talisman Master to come over as soon as possible. If you have a skill, it will be easier for me to lurk."

Shen Long said that Rogue Cultivator can also make elixirs and talismans, but the proportion is not high.

"No problem, you go back to practice first, and if you find a candidate, I will recommend it to you immediately."

Chen Qingqing agreed.

Shen Long nodded and left.

Returning to his residence, Shen Long walked into a secret room, entered Spirit Control Tower, and came to the second floor.

He blew a whistle, and Fire Rock Beast rushed over from a distance. There was plenty of fire Spiritual Qi here, but it would be too wasteful just to raise Fire Rock Beast. He planned to plant some spirit medicine spiritual fruits with fire attributes.

He has no experience in growing spiritual fruit spirit medicine, so he can go to Scripture Depository to check the classics on this subject.

He sat cross-legged on the Cyan Stone Bed, took out a Cyan Porcelain Bottle, drank the Demon Beast Essence Blood inside, and started practicing.

······

Azure Cloud Peak, Begonia Courtyard.

Ye Yutang, Ye Yuqing and Qian Dafu are sitting in a Cyan Stone Pavilion, talking about something.

"Junior Brother Shen No news for so long? Something happened, right?"

Ye Yuqing said.

"Probably not. I asked Senior Brother Qin and he said that Senior Brother Shen was transferred out to work."

Qian Dafu said.

"That's strange. He didn't join Grand Competition and was directly transferred out to work? Could it be that he offended someone and was excluded?"

Ye Yutang said doubtfully.

"That's not clear. I haven't seen him for a long time and there is no news about him. Junior Brother Lin is still planting Spirit Peach Tree on Senior Brother Shen. He should be fine."

Qian Dafu analyzed.

Ye Yuqing nodded. "I hope so!"

······

More than five months have passed quickly, and Green Fox Peak is one of 72 Inner Peaks.

Green Rose Garden, a secret room, with a large number of red runes engraved on the stone wall, and the temperature is frighteningly high.

Shen Long is sitting cross-legged on a Red Prayer Mat, staring closely at Red Alchemy Furnace not far in front of him, with four legs and two ears. Alchemy Furnace is engraved with a flame pattern on the surface, and there is a ball of Crimson Flame at the bottom.

The room was filled with a strong medicinal fragrance, and a woman in a red dress in her early forties stood aside. The woman in the red dress had picturesque facial features and her hair was combed into clouds.

After a while, Shen Long's magic formula changed, his sleeves flicked, Crimson Flame disappeared, he opened Alchemy Furnace, got up and walked over.

There are nine Qi Recovery Pills in Alchemy Furnace, and each one has three Pill Patterns, which are all low-grade elixirs.

The woman in the red dress came over, saw Qi Recovery Pill in Alchemy Furnace, smiled slightly, and said, "Not bad! Junior Brother Shen, it seems that you have a certain talent in alchemy. With more practice, you should be able to refine a middle-grade elixir."

"Thanks to Senior Sister Jiang's guidance, otherwise I wouldn't have progressed so quickly. It's disrespectful to be careless."

Shen Long took out a Red Storage Bag and handed it to the woman in the red dress.

The woman in the red dress is named Jiang Yan. She is a second-level alchemist Alchemist, teaching Shen Long how to make alchemy.

Shen Long asked Chen Qingqing to help recommend Second Rank Talisman Master and teach him how to make talismans. Unfortunately, he did not have the talent to make talismans. The success rate of refining the first-level Talisman was quite low. In desperation, Shen Long could only ask Chen Qingqing to help recommend the second-level refining Alchemist.

Unexpectedly, Shen Long has a certain talent in alchemy. Currently, he can refine a variety of first-level elixirs, but they are only low-grade elixirs.

Jiang Yan did not refuse and accepted Red Storage Bag.

After chatting for a few words, Shen Long left.

Returning to his residence, Shen Long walked into a secret room, entered Spirit Control Tower, and came to the second floor.

Shen Long stood outside Giant Valley, a mountain surrounded by mountains on three sides. The valley was filled with a large red mist, making it difficult to see clearly what was going on in the valley.

He took out a Formation Disk with a flashing red light and entered a spell. The red mist dissipated and he walked in. There was a large spiritual field in the valley, and he could see some inch-high red grass and red flowers.

The red grass is Fire Flame Grass, the red flower is Crimson Flame Flower, which was planted by Shen Long.

He has temporarily opened up twenty acres of spiritual land, all of which are used to plant fire-attribute spirit medicine. Even if he sells spirit medicine, Shen Long, he can make a lot of money.

Shen Long Hand Seals with both hands, a burst of dazzling blue light lit up in both hands, and the right index finger raised to the sky and tapped lightly, a blue light flew out, flew to the sky above Lingtian, and turned into a huge blue cloud.

Blue clouds rolled and surged, and big blue raindrops poured down, and the rain fell on the spiritual field.

After applying rain to the twenty acres of spiritual fields, Shen Long walked out of the valley and injected a spell into Formation Disk. A cloud of red mist emerged and flooded the valley.

He whistled, and Fire Rock Beast came running from a distance, making a loud roar.

Shen Long made a stop gesture with his right hand, and Fire Rock Beast stopped immediately.

In order to prevent Fire Rock Beast from eating spirit medicine, Shen Long specially purchased several sets of first-level Formation to protect the spiritual field, and at the same time trained Fire Rock Beast to prevent it from getting close to the spiritual field.

He took out two Red Ginseng plants and fed them to Fire Rock Beast.

Shen Long now has more than 40,000 Spirit Stone, as well as a large piece of spiritual land, and is very wealthy.

Raising Spirit Beast Spirit Insect Spirit Bird requires a lot of immortal cultivation resources. The emergence of Volcano Cluster greatly eases the pressure on Shen Long, and he can cultivate more Spirit Beast Spirit Insect.

He can refine the first-level elixir now, and it will be even easier when he can refine Second-tier Medicinal Pill.

Shen Long exited Spirit Control Tower. He took out a Communication Disk with a flashing blue light and entered a magic formula. Chen Ziyi's voice sounded, "Uncle-Master Shen, Grandpa asked me to bring you the Law Artifact you want. I am now at the door of Green Lotus Garden."

"Okay, I'll go out right away."

Shen Long put away Communication Disk and walked out.

He walked out of Green Lotus Garden and invited Chen Ziyi in.

"Uncle-Master Shen, this is Hundred Illusion Mask refined by my grandfather. High-grade Magical Tool can change your face easily. Foundation Establishment Cultivator is very difficult to find your true face."

Chen Ziyi took out a human skin mask and handed it to Shen Long.

"Hundred Illusion Mask!"

Shen Long took Hundred Illusion Mask with a happy face.

"Senior Brother Chen is tired."

Shen Long praised.

"It's just a mask that changes the face. Pills or Talisman can also do it. The advantage of Hundred Illusion Mask is that it can maintain the same face for a long time. Grandpa said that Hundred Illusion Mask can record up to five faces. In other words, Uncle-Master Shen can freely switch among the five faces. To say it has hundreds of faces is actually an exaggeration."

Chen Ziyi explained.

Shen Long smiled slightly, "Five faces! This is enough."

"As long as Uncle-Master Shen likes it, if nothing happens, I will not disturb Uncle-Master Shen's cultivation."

Chen Ziyi said goodbye and left.

Shen Long walked into a secret room and worshiped Hundred Illusion Mask.

Early the next morning, Shen Long walked out of the secret room, took out Communication Disk and contacted Chen Qingqing and Zhao Qian.

Not long after, Chen Qingqing and Zhao Qian came over.

"Senior Sister Chen, Senior Sister Zhao, I plan to go on a mission. Senior Sister Zhao, this is the key to Green Lotus Garden. I don't have anything valuable. Senior Sister Wang can come and go freely. You can hand the key to Senior Sister Wang for me."

Shen Long took out a Cyan Token and handed it to Zhao Qian.

"Okay, I will definitely transfer it to Junior Sister Wang for you."

Zhao Qian agreed.

"This is a ten-year allowance. When you get there, you should be more careful."

Chen Qingqing took out a Blue Storage Bag and handed it to Shen Long.

Shen Long took Blue Storage Bag, Divine Sense scanned it and nodded.

After chatting for a few words, Shen Long Royal Device left Spirit Control Sect General Headquarters.

······

Qing Prefecture, Thousand Bamboo Valley, there are many pedestrians on the street.

A tall and tall Blue-Shirted Youth stood at the door of a three-story Cyan Pavilion. The plaque of the Cyan Pavilion read "Ye Family Weapon Shop" in five large golden characters.

Blue-Shirted Youth is none other than Shen Long.

"Changed the name of the store?"

Shen Long frowned.

He returned to Thousand Bamboo Valley this time mainly to visit Sun Huowang.

A Green-Shirted Attendant in his early thirties came out. He was a little surprised to see Shen Long and said, "Shen Long, no, Senior Shen."

"Is the shopkeeper here?"

Shen Long asked.

"Shopkeeper Sun has moved away a long time ago, congratulations! Senior Shen."

Green-Shirted Attendant is full of envy.

Shen Long was actually promoted to the Foundation Establishment Realm, which really surprised him.

"Moved? Where? When did you move?"

Shen Long asked.

"I don't know where they moved, maybe five years ago! Shopkeeper Sun and Fairy Sun left suddenly without any warning."

Green-Shirted Attendant said.

"Is Qin Qing still at Marketplace? Is there anyone wanted by Marketplace?"

Shen Long asked.

"Qin Qing? I haven't seen him for a long time. I haven't heard of anyone wanted."

Green-Shirted Attendant said it truthfully.

Shen Long nodded. It seemed that Qin Qing did not spread the news about Spirit Control Token. He had already joined Spirit Control Sect. Even if Qin Qing spread the news, it would not affect Shen Long.

Shen Long took out ten pieces of Spirit Stone, threw them to Green-Shirted Attendant, and said, "Pay attention to the news from the shopkeeper. I will come back in the future."

"Yes, thank you Senior Shen, thank you Senior Shen, thank you Senior Shen."

Green-Shirted Attendant thanked her profusely.

Thousand Bamboo Valley came out, Shen Long launched Law Artifact, flew towards high altitude, and left this place.

······

Golden Centipede Mountain Range is located in the southwest of the Zhao Kingdom, stretching for tens of thousands of miles, with countless dangerous mountains and peaks, often infested by poisonous insects and beasts.

Golden Centipede Mountain Range is filled with miasma and has been gathering for a long time. There are a large number of poisonous insects and poisonous beasts, attracting many immortal cultivators to hunt Demon Beast here.

Deep in the Golden Centipede Mountain Range, a Blue-Shirted Youth with ordinary features stood in an open field, it was Shen Long.

Entering the territory of the Zhao Kingdom, Shen Long put on Hundred Illusion Mask and changed his appearance.

He joined Immortal Ascension Assembly and got to know a lot of Qi Refining Cultivator. He might meet old friends in the Zhao Kingdom and it would be safer to change his appearance.

Iron Tail Scorpion is fighting with a Golden Centipede. Golden Centipede is two feet long, has golden eyes, and has some flame-like patterns on its shell. This is Golden Flame Centipede from First Rank Late Stage.

The tail of Iron Tail Scorpion hit the hard shell of Golden Flame Centipede, and there was a dull sound of gold and iron clashing.

Shen Long blew a whistle, and a white shadow fell from the sky, it was Snow Wind Sparrow.

It flapped its wings lightly, and White Ice Blade, which was more than ten feet long, flew out and hit Golden Flame Centipede one after another, making a muffled sound.

Golden Flame Centipede opened its bloody mouth, sprayed out more than a dozen Crimson Fireball as big as a bowl, and headed straight for Snow Wind Sparrow.

Snow Wind Sparrow flapped its wings and quickly avoided more than a dozen Crimson Fireball. It circled around behind Golden Flame Centipede and sprayed out a stream of White Cold Qi, hitting the tail of Golden Flame Centipede. Its tail quickly froze, and the ground also froze.

Golden Flame Centipede twisted its huge body and the ice shattered.

Iron Tail Scorpion sprayed out a pungent Yellow Poison Mist and hit Golden Flame Centipede's body. A burst of green smoke suddenly appeared from its body. More than a dozen White Ice Blade fell from the sky and hit the place where the green smoke was coming out.

There was a muffled "clang" sound, and a thin layer of ice chips appeared where the smoke was coming out.

Iron Tail Scorpion's tail stinger flicked and turned into a large piece of yellow silk thread, which hit the smoking area of Golden Flame Centipede one after another. Suddenly, more than a dozen small holes appeared on Golden Flame Centipede's body surface.

Golden Flame Centipede opened its bloody mouth and spurted out a thick stream of Crimson Flame. The moment it opened its bloody mouth, Iron Tail Scorpion's body surface glowed with yellow light and it burrowed into the ground.

Crimson Flame hit the ground, and a huge pit suddenly exploded on the ground, with signs of melting in the pit.

Golden Flame Centipede wanted to continue attacking Iron Tail Scorpion, but a stream of White Cold Qi fell from the sky and landed on it, and Golden Flame Centipede's body froze again.

It twisted its body again, and the ice broke again.

Iron Tail Scorpion emerged from the ground and appeared at the tail of Golden Flame Centipede. The tail stinger suddenly shook, and a large yellow line flew out, hitting the hard shell of Golden Flame Centipede one after another.

Golden Flame Centipede had more than a dozen tiny holes on its body surface. It made a painful hissing sound, and its huge body kept twisting.

Under the joint attack of Iron Tail Scorpion and Snow Wind Sparrow, it didn't take long for Golden Flame Centipede to be defeated and poisoned by Iron Tail Scorpion.

Shen Long nodded with satisfaction. He passed by this place and learned that there were many poisonous insects and beasts here. He went into the mountain specially to give Iron Tail Scorpion a good meal and to train them to join forces to fight against the enemy.

Iron Tail Scorpion's pair of giant pincers clamped Golden Flame Centipede's body, gently pulled it, tore Golden Flame Centipede in half, and swallowed it.

"Okay, come back! It's time for us to leave here, business is important."

Shen Long ordered.

Iron Tail Scorpion and Snow Wind Sparrow seemed to understand Shen Long's words, and turned into a yellow light and a white light respectively, each flying into a Spirit Beast Bag.

There was a loud noise in the distance, the ground shook violently, and a yellow Giant Scorpion emerged from the ground. There were traces of fire on the surface of the body, and there were two tail spines. The tail spines were as black as ink.

"Second-order Twin-Tail Scorpion!"

Shen Long said in surprise.

"Fellow Daoist in front, please take action to stop this Twin-Tail Scorpion."

A loud male voice came from far away.

Twin-Tail Scorpion regarded Shen Long as an enemy, opened his mouth and sprayed out a thick yellow light, heading straight towards Shen Long.

Shen Long's figure swayed and he avoided the yellow light. The yellow light hit a boulder, causing a burst of green smoke to appear on the boulder and signs of corrosion.

Twin-Tail Scorpion wanted to continue attacking Shen Long. A Cyan Vine as thick as an adult's thigh broke out of the ground and wrapped around Twin-Tail Scorpion's body.

After Shen Long was promoted to the Foundation Establishment Realm, he used the first level Law Technique again, and the power was greatly improved.

The two tail spines of Twin-Tail Scorpion shook suddenly and hit Cyan Vine one after another, causing Cyan Vine to break.

A Giant Fireball with a diameter of three feet fell from the sky and hit Twin-Tail Scorpion.

There was a loud rumbling sound and rolling flames drowned Twin-Tail Scorpion's body.
