Versatile Mage: I Awakened Nine Stars

Chapter 342 The Sudden Appearance of the Black Church
Xu Shen was called into the secret room and was stunned.

Just now, Old Man Bao gave him a task that was even more horrifying and perverted than carving tofu.

The specific task flow is as follows:

First, find the formation master Ding Yumian to design a light magic formation to imprison the soul of the Condensed Evil Pearl, so that it can only have the ability to charge, but cannot actively seduce people. In order to ensure that the soul will not break the seal, the level of this magic formation must be at least heavenly.

Second, let him copy this extremely complex magic array into the Condensed Evil Pearl.

"Old man, if you want us to die, please just say it," Xu Shen blurted out after coming to his senses.

For an ordinary formation master, let alone designing a heavenly magic formation, if he can fully understand some of the things left by his predecessors, he will already be a remarkable formation master, and will be a guest of honor wherever he goes.

There is no denying that Ding Yumian is a genius, but how old is she? Even if she has the experience of her predecessors to refer to, is she sure she is not kidding when she designs a heavenly-level magic circle on her own?

That's a heavenly-grade magic circle. A most common heavenly-grade magic circle needs to connect at least a million nodes. The magic power required between each circuit is different, and the precision required is abnormally high.

Especially when it comes to engraving on a magic weapon as small as an eyeball, the precision required is extremely abnormal.

With Xu Shen's level of magic control and spiritual power...

emm...

Seems like it's really possible?
Why do I feel so excited for such a difficult challenge?

Xu Shen slapped his forehead and said: I'm probably going crazy.

"It's such a fun thing, don't you want to try it?"

Inexplicably, Xu Shen felt that Old Man Bao's dry voice was extremely attractive.

He swallowed and said, "I'm going to Hangzhou now, wait for my news."

Seeing Xu Shen rushing out the door, Mo Fan was confused: "Where did he go?"

"Of course I'm going to find someone to help you research the second plan."

Old Man Bao closed the door of the secret room and sipped his tea leisurely: "The matter of the Red Devil is no trivial matter. Leng Chuan, I will go with you to Japan this time."

"what about me?!"

Lingling was a little anxious, like a monkey jumping up and down.

Leng Qing gave the restless Ling Ling a slap on the face: "You just awakened your magic not long ago, stay home and practice well."

Mo Fan exclaimed: "Lingling is 15 years old?"

"almost."

Old Man Bao explained it vaguely and didn't want to waste time on it.

……

The West Lake in Hangzhou is sunny and the spring scenery is picturesque.

Unfortunately, Tang Yue was not at home today, so Ding Yumian was the only one who came to the station to pick up Xu Shen.

She was dressed warmly, using sunglasses and a mask to cover her breathtakingly beautiful face, and she waved at Xu Shen vigorously at the door while holding flowers.

So lively, it must be Mianmian.

Xu Shen smiled and rushed over to give him a big hug.

It's only been half a month since we last met, but I already miss you a lot.

"Why did you suddenly come to Hangzhou?"

"miss you."

"Hmph," Ding Yumian raised her chin proudly, and inadvertently lifted up her jeans while driving, revealing the white stockings wrapped around her ankles.

"Mianmian, find a convenient place to park the car."

"how?"

Ding Yumian pretended not to know, reluctantly stepping on the brakes and obediently stopping by the roadside.

"It's convenient."

Xu Shen grinned and moved closer.

……

It took Ding Yumian only more than ten minutes to get from the lake island to the high-speed rail station.

But the journey back took nearly three hours. It was dark when Xu Shen finally returned to the Tang family, carrying the disabled Yu Mian on his back.

Tang's father and mother looked at Xu Shen with dark faces, and waved their hands to have the waiter clear the table of sumptuous but cold dishes in the restaurant.

Xu Shen smiled awkwardly.

Monk Xiuyuan said sarcastically, "Aren't you going to participate in that stupid national competition? How come you have time to come here?"

As Xu Shen listened, he inexplicably thought of the monkey in Journey to the West who went around asking for help.

"I have something to ask for help... Li Yu", Xu Shen smiled and said, "Uncle and aunt, where is Sister Tang Yue?"

"I went to M City."

Tang's mother had a pretty good temper. Although she looked unhappy, at least she didn't ignore Xu Shen directly.

"Um, I just came back from M City." Xu Shen was stunned: "Why didn't she tell me on the phone?"

"M has discovered the Black Church's traces. If I tell you directly, there is a risk of being eavesdropped."

Xu Shen was a little surprised. No wonder Senior Sister Leng Qing was also in M ​​City.

However, Zu Guangyao was not a good-for-nothing. After he faked his death, the Black Church became more and more violent.

During that time, he was in the dark and saw much more than what was revealed in the Ancient Capital Incident.

Although Saran was not caught in the subsequent catastrophe in the ancient capital, the backup plan he had arranged in advance did not disappoint. Saran's forces left in the country were almost uprooted. Even if there were a few cats and dogs that escaped, they would basically not be able to do anything.

If I remember correctly, the person in charge of Saran who stayed in M ​​City seemed to be a blue-clothed butler named Fang Shaoli. I guess the grass on his grave has already grown very tall.

How could there still be traces of the Black Church in M ​​City?

Xu Shen couldn't help but ask, "Wasn't the Black Church's influence in M ​​City completely eliminated after the Ancient Capital Incident? Is the Inquisition sure it's not a mistake?"

"It's not Saran this time."

A powerful voice was heard, and an old man in Tang suit came into the living room.

Xu Shen knew this man, his name was Tang Zhong, he was Tang Yue’s uncle and the current chief judge of the Lingyin Tribunal.

"Not Saran?"

Xu Shen frowned slightly.

"The one who took action this time is codenamed 'Nine Infants'."

"Nine Infants?!"

Xu Shen and Ding Yumian couldn't help but look at each other.

They suddenly thought of Ji Letian, oh no, it was Gu Yanbing in the illusory world of Taixu.

If I remember correctly, when he was recruiting Wu Ku, he also said that he was a member of the Black Church.

At that time, Lingling also obtained a list of official positions of Ji Le Tian, ​​and the name with the highest position was Jiuying.

This, it seems, is no coincidence.

Inexplicably, Xu Shen suddenly remembered Gu Yanbing's sarcastic remark when Wu Ku said that his boss was Salan: Is he worthy of being a cardinal?

The reason why Gu Yanbing said this is probably because his boss has a similar status to Saran in the Black Church, but is more powerful and has a higher level of skill.

Of course, it is not ruled out that he is bragging.

"Why, judging from your reaction, you know about Jiuying?"

Tang Zhong is an experienced judge. Even if he is not a psychic mage, he can guess everyone's psychological activities based on some micro-expressions.

"I guess I've heard of it," Xu Shen said hesitantly, "I know a list of names, and the boss on the list is called Saran."

Tang Zhong's eyes lit up: "What list?!"

"If Sister Tang Yue has met Ling Ling, maybe she already knows."

The trial had its own internal contact information, and soon Tang Zhong confirmed Xu Shen's guess.

"Okay, today is a family gathering, why are you talking about business right away? Let's eat first, and then you can talk about whatever you want after dinner."

Tang's mother interrupted the serious atmosphere with a smile and directed the waiter who had been waiting outside the door for a long time to bring the freshly prepared dishes to the table.
