Tian Yuan Xian Ji

Chapter 663 Mission
Seven or eight hundred miles south of "Qingzhengli City" from Donglai County City, there is a huge cyan light curtain in the open plain, covering an area hundreds of miles away.

At noon, the sun was shining brightly, and there were no clouds in the sky. A ray of light shot from the southwest, revealing the figure of a handsome man. It was Tangning.

Since he left from the Qiankun Spiritual Beast Pavilion last month and returned to the alliance, a month has passed in the blink of an eye. He came here again to participate in the annual spirit beast betting competition of the Qiankun Spiritual Beast Pavilion. It has been reported to participate in this betting competition, and the spirit beast on the field is the golden rhinoceros ant.

Now it has been bet on Qiankun Spiritual Beast Pavilion, under their control, just waiting to play today.

Tangning flipped it in his hand, and a talisman fell into the inner room. Soon, a corner of the light curtain melted away, and he entered the inner room in a flash.

The interior is a plain, and there is no obstacle to the field of vision.

The area with a radius of hundreds of miles is divided into dozens of areas of different sizes, shrouded in light curtains, and next to each area, there is a majestic and towering palace.

Since the gambling competition will officially start tomorrow, there are not many people in the room. He came to prepare as a contestant and needs to arrive a few days in advance.

Tangning flew all the way, and after a while, she came to a majestic palace.

He went straight into the hall, the inside was extremely spacious, about several hundred feet in size, with carved beams and painted buildings on the beams, crystal palace lanterns hanging high from the roof, and jasper red walls around, it was very luxuriously decorated.

There are more than a dozen figures standing or standing in front of the cabinets in each corner, and dozens of large desks are placed.

Besides, there were about a dozen people bustling around in the hall, all of whom seemed to be monks participating in the spirit beast game.

Tang Ning came to a desk, engraved with the names of various spirit beasts participating in the competition, there were more than a hundred spirit beasts, divided according to level, clearly marked from the fourth level to the first level, including battle spirit beasts The types and odds are written on it one by one.

Tang Ning saw the name of the Golden Armored Ant in the ranks of the second-tier middle-grade spirit beasts.

The odds of the second-tier middle-grade spirit beast, the golden rhinoceros ant against the three-tailed red scorpion, are six to four.

The odds for the golden-armored ant are six, and the odds for the three-tailed red scorpion are four. Because this is the third time for the three-tailed red scorpion to participate in the game held by the Qiankun Spiritual Beast Pavilion, and they won the first two times, the odds are higher.

He glanced at the match information and odds, came to a man in front of the cabinet, flipped his hands over, took out a token and handed it to him, "My fellow daoist, I am the organizer of the spirit beast game organized by your Chamber of Commerce." participant."

The man took a look at the token, handed it back to him and said, "What do you need, Fellow Daoist Tang?"

"I don't know where the spirit beast is now sealed, I want to take a look."

"Out of the main hall, more than a hundred miles ahead, there is a Lingguan Pavilion, where fellow Taoists can go for consultation."

Tang Ning thanked him and left the hall. Before it was time for a cup of tea, he saw a Ling Guan Pavilion standing upright. He went straight into the inner room. There were several monks from the chamber of commerce sitting in front of the desk.

He walked to the side of one person and handed the token: "I am a contestant in the spirit beast game, I wonder if I can take a look at the state of my spirit beast first."

The woman took the token and glanced at it: "What kind of spirit beast is the fellow Daoist participating in?"

"Golden rhinoceros ant."

The woman flicked her left hand, took out a book, and looked it up: "Fellow Taoist, please follow me."

The two left the main hall, walked to a small light curtain, flipped their hands, and a talisman disappeared into the room.

Soon, a corner of the light curtain melted away, and the two of them entered the inner room, which was only a few miles around, filled with more than a dozen cages that looked like gold but not gold, wood but not wood.

Each one was about a hundred feet in size, densely packed with runes, and there was a pavilion at each of the four corners, with a man sitting cross-legged underneath. Tangning's spiritual sense swept over them, and they were all Gold Core cultivators.

Seeing two people entering, the four people did not raise their heads, they still sat cross-legged.

The Golden Armored Ant was being imprisoned in one of the cages that was not made of gold or wood. Tangning walked up to it and saw it lying on the lower end, its whole body was bound by unknown black runes, unable to move at all.

"Can you let me take a look at it out of this cage?" Tangning asked.

The woman replied: "Sorry, there is a rule in this pavilion that no one is allowed to touch the participating spirit beasts until before the competition. Neither we nor the owner of the spirit beasts can touch them in advance until the start of the ring."

Tangning looked at it for a while, and he could faintly feel that the golden armored ant seemed to be very tired and drowsy at the moment.

"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist, these runes won't damage its body, they just make it unable to move. This pavilion has prepared a resting place for the contestants, and we will return the spirit beast to Fellow Daoist after the game is over. would hurt it."

Tang Ning nodded, and the two of them stepped out of the light curtain and disappeared into the distance.

..........................................

In Fenghua City, a huge thunder ship slowly sailed out from the exit of the city, a silver arc flashed all over its body, and it went straight to the sky, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

On the top deck of the ship, all kinds of cannons stand, and above the bow, flags are flying.

Jiang Yuhuan stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the mountains and rivers flashing by under his feet, the expression on his face was still carefree, but his eyes were deep.

Suddenly footsteps sounded behind him, but a woman with a waist and buttocks with a bee waist and a skin that is more radiant than snow came slowly, it was Nangong Feiyue, a disciple of the original Shui Yunzong.

Jiang Yuhuan smiled and said, "You don't come to collect debts from me, do you! I'm penniless now."

Nangong Feiyue ignored him, walked up to him, stood side by side with him, leaned on the bow of the boat, and looked at the afterglow of the sunset: "This time we are going to garrison Qingdao, why don't we see fellow Taoist Tangning? Three teams?"

"I didn't expect you to care about him."

Nangong Feiyue's face turned cold.

Jiang Yuhuan smiled: "I don't know either, it seems that I heard that Junior Brother Tang was transferred from the seventh column, and I don't know exactly where he went."

Nangong Feiyue turned her head and glanced at him: "What about you? Why didn't you leave? You are Hou Yi from the Jiang family in Qingzhou, and the supervisor of our seventh column seems to be a child of the Jiang family. I heard that he has even met you? Are you going to be sent to the hospital? Transferred directly to the column? Why not go?"

"The tone sounds like a review, I forgot, you were from the inspection department before."

"I'm asking you something." Nangong Feiyue's expression darkened.

Jiang Yuhuan shrugged, leaning on the bow of the boat with a lazy look: "What difference does it make where you go?"

"I will tell you a secret. I have always believed that everyone has his own destiny."

"From the moment he came into this world, he has shouldered his unique mission. What kind of achievement can a person achieve, or when will he die? It has been predestined in the dark, and this cannot be changed."

"So life and death are not important. You can't control it yourself. Living in this world is like a puppet on a string. It has no meaning in itself, because the ending cannot be changed."

"What is really interesting is the process, the process from birth to death, the scenery experienced in a lifetime, and the mood of seeing the scenery."

"It's like when you see a flower blooming, what's really interesting is the process of it blooming and blooming."

"When it is in full bloom, it is the beginning of its withering. Although it looks beautiful on the outside, it is actually withered inside."

Nangong Feiyue snorted coldly: "It's nonsense."

"You don't believe it? Let's do this! I'll give you a divination." Jiang Yuhuan flipped his left hand, took out a pair of golden tortoise shells, and handed it to her, "Try it."

Nangong Feiyue took a look at him, but she saw a smile on his face and a strange look in his eyes. She originally dismissed this and was about to refute it, but by accident, she took the tortoise shell naturally, shook it, Hand it back to him.

Jiang Yuhuan took the tortoise shell, opened it, and saw that there were more than a dozen ancient copper coins scattered inside: "Hey! This hexagram is not very good. It seems that you have a bad life."

"Nonsense." Nangong Feiyue said expressionlessly, "What about you! What is your hexagram?"

"Haven't you heard of it? Physicians don't heal themselves, and healers don't heal themselves. How can you calculate for yourself! This is a big taboo."

Nangong Feiyue didn't continue to dwell on this topic, and asked, "If the battle with Mubei is over, will you return to Xingang?"

"will not."

"Why? Isn't it the same for people like you who live with the situation and don't care about life and death?"

"When did I say that I don't care about life and death anymore? I just said that life and death are fixed and cannot be changed by humans. These are two different things. Don't misinterpret them."

"Why haven't you answered me yet?"

"Didn't I say it? The important thing is the process, the scenery along the way. Xingang is like a well, and you can see how big the scenery is when you are in the well! Have you ever seen a frog that jumped out of the well and returned to the bottom of the well? "

"So, you want to go back to Jiang's house?"

"It's the same wherever you go. It doesn't matter if you are a casual cultivator, you can be free, or you can practice in a family of Xuanmen Chamber of Commerce! It doesn't make much difference to me. But you, you probably won't go back to Xingang again! Where are you going?"

Nangong Feiyue said: "How do you know that I will not return to Xingang?"

Jiang Yuhuan said: "Everyone has a special mission from birth. Some people never find it in their whole life, some people find it but give up, and some people persist but fail. There are very few people."

"As for your mission, you can find out if you think about it carefully."

"You were born in the Mubei Grassland and grew up in a village of the Non-Monster Clan. You don't lack the inheritance of skills. Why did you come to Xingang instead of the near ones? This is definitely not your personal wish. It must be the result of the discussion of the elders of the Non-Monster Clan. .”

"Why did the elders of the non-yao clan send you to the Taoist sect on Qinghai Island? Isn't it because the Taoist sect was powerful at that time, and hoped that you could integrate into it?"

"You have come here with missions and tasks. I would boldly guess that the elders of the non-yao tribe scattered you young children to various Taoist sects. clan status."

"Presumably before you left, the elders of the clan should have mentioned these things by ear!"

"But now that Xuanmen is in decline and the world is in chaos, I heard that there are not a few non-monsters in the Mubei coalition army. You have already occupied a place in Mubei, so why bother to serve Xuanmen! What's more, Xingang is small and weak. Privately, you have no reason to return to Newport."

Nangong Feiyue turned her head to look at him.

"Don't look at me like that, even if what I said is wrong, from a personal point of view, there is no need for you to go back to Xingang, is there?"

"If you allow, let me give you a little advice! If you are lucky enough to survive on the day when the great war ends, and you haven't decided where you want to go, I advise you not to join the Xuanmen organization anymore."

"You should be very clear that the Taoist sect is not suitable for someone with your status. Although you have served as the head of the inner court in Shuiyunzong with the status of a golden core monk, in fact it is only because the Shuiyunzong sect is small. Weak, no one can use it."

"If you are in Dazong, there are many people with your aptitude and cultivation level, you can't get any reuse, you will only be excluded."

"What's more, now that the monster race is on the rise, and the non-monster race from Mubei joins the Mubei Alliance Army, your special status will be even more unwelcome, and your lives may be in danger."

"Now that the world is in chaos, the original structure and forces will definitely undergo a new round of reshuffling. It is not known whether Xuanmen can maintain its dominance."

"Continuing to stay in Xuanmen, whether it is public or private, is not a good choice."

"Pretending to be smart." Nangong Feiyue snorted coldly, turned around and left.

"Thank you for your donation that day, and the Lingshi will be returned to you in a few days." Jiang Yuhuan said from a distance, Nangong Feiyue didn't turn her head back, and left without pausing.
