The rising sun shatters the darkness!

Chapter 497: Evil winds rise in all directions, seeking freedom, the vast sea blocks the dryness of the two-finger Zen (daily monthly tickets requested)
As a veteran soldier, Xu Shu is experienced and says he has seen all kinds of situations.

So he quickly calmed his little brother's stress reaction and enjoyed it with relish...

No, it is to examine one's past seriously.

With that critical look.

For example, although Master Qi Zhu's clavicle is big enough to raise a small goldfish, it is too plump and not fresh enough, and too delicate. If a small beauty mole is placed here, it can greatly alleviate this situation, but unfortunately it cannot be placed there.

For another example, although Master Qi Zhu possesses both enchanting charm and strong dignity, two completely different temperaments, which create a strong contrast and give people a sense of shock and desire to conquer, because she has no clothes, her decoration appears too simple, and her degree of dignity is too high, slightly exceeding her charm.

A lace leg ring should be put on her smooth and round thighs to add interest, so as to achieve a delicate balance, and it can also serve as a handrail for the baby.

Alas, there really is no one in the world who is truly perfect. If you look for faults carefully, you can always find something that you feel is not good enough...

As Xu Shu was thinking this in his mind, the progress in the legend had already reached the point where "The Seven-Colored Taoist Nun was trapped in the subconscious world, and the Vajra Mantra Embryo angrily killed the evil Sutra Bug."

Xu Shu was seen riding on the little Wang Teng, using the [Nine Phases of the Cursed Fetus] to the extreme, with the Prison Ox playing the zither, the Jiaozi roaring, and even eating it alive in the end, but he was still no match for the tide of insects in the waves.

So he chose to use the body of Qi Zhu, the demigod who had inexplicably fallen into a coma, to directly spit out all the dead bugs in his stomach and feed them to her.

Thanks to the strength of this demigod, Xu Shu narrowly won and achieved the achievements of "Nine Apertures Opening the Jade Gate" and "Passing by the Door Three Times Without Entering". (Note: Volume 3, Chapter 25)
Although this was the second time he had seen these insects, Xu Shu still inexplicably felt a sense of depression and horror in his heart.

"Alas, the gift of a forbidden existence~"

"Alas, the Taoist nun who has an unlucky old age~"

"Alas, the curse of the goddess of destiny~"

"This world is full of malice. Even the so-called way to become a god seems to have some huge hidden dangers. I might end up being robbed by the evil gods after working hard for my whole life. It's really hard to accept! Is it possible that in this vast world, there is no place for human beings to settle down?"

Xu Shu sighed three times, feeling extremely heavy-hearted.

He once again felt his own weakness and helplessness, so he wrote down the information about those mysterious creatures in order to remind Xie Xiaochan's master, the female high-ranking official of Xu Palace.

It is hoped that this method will allow the demigod to notice that something is wrong, thus giving them some room to maneuver.

[So this is why you wrote "menstrual disorders" on the private part of your belly? ]

[Too great, worthy of you. 】

[After this battle, Xie Xiaochan successfully advanced to the third stage of the "Female Crown" path: Tianming Xuannv. ]

[As the cursed fetus in your body, you have also gained a lot. You regard the gift of that forbidden existence as a tonic and eat your fill. The second phase of the nine phases of the cursed fetus is about to be completed. Once you digest this harvest, you can reach a higher level.]

[The next day, Xie Xiaochan woke up from her training and checked herself. She discovered a phenomenon that surprised her greatly—her curse seal had changed! ]

[Her talent is indeed not bad, but she was originally just an ordinary female Void True Transmission, and had not yet reached the level of a Heavenly Man, so she originally had a combination of three flawless purple curse seals.]

[But today, she saw that the first-level spell had inexplicably become epic, while the second-level spell was still flawless. What was even more terrifying was that the third-level spell had become legendary!]

[In addition, her third-level curse seal is also different from the third-level curse seal of the general "Female Crown". Others have "Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Woman", but hers only has "Mysterious Woman", and it is a double entry, with two legendary levels of "Vajra Mysterious Woman" and "Giant Devouring"! ]

【Xie Xiaochan was very nervous. As we all know, there was no "legendary" curse seal in the public intelligence, but she had it, and it also violated the iron rule of the extraordinary world that "the quality of high-level curse seals is less than or equal to that of low-level curse seals". This was not good news.】

[However, fortunately, she is a woman with a big heart but not big breasts. After a quick brainstorm, she came to the conclusion that she had gained this fortune through the Trial Secret Realm.]

[This conjecture cannot be said to be completely wrong, it can only be said that the relationship is almost zero. ]

[Obviously, she doesn't know that it's your presence that caused her curse to change.]

[This is normal. After all, you are just a premature baby. Which mother can feel it? ]

"..."

"Wait, this isn't normal?"

Looking at the beautiful young bride exploring herself in front of him, the expression on Xu Shu's face froze.

Xie Xiaochan's first-level curse seal evolved from purple to gold. This is easy to understand. It is a natural manifestation after the first-level curse fetus has been completed.

Therefore, it is easy to understand why her second-level curse seal is still purple even though the cursed fetus is already at the second level. As long as Little King Kong reaches the perfection of the second level, she can become a mother with honor because of her son and become a ruthless person who has completed the evolution of both the first-level and second-level curse seals.

But how did her third-level seal become legendary?

You should know that even the curse used by "Wang Teng" himself is only at the epic level.

How did she manage to overtake on the curve?
Is this the consequence of coming into contact with a forbidden existence?
The entry "Vast Devouring" seems to be somewhat similar to the Xuan Zhang [Taotie] obtained at that time.

As for the fact that "Heaven's Destiny Lady" became "King Kong Lady"...

Uh, could it be that it was merged with the fate of "born as a diamond"? Fate and fate, it seems that there is only one word difference, and the meaning is similar, it is not impossible that they can replace each other...

Thinking of this, Xu Shu concentrated his mind and tried to see something more from the review.

Unfortunately, the "previous situation" is just a "previous situation" after all, and cannot be controlled by Xu Shu.

So at this moment, Xie Xiaochan had already taken a shower, changed her clothes, and ran out to wander around and make friends.

As a true disciple of a powerful force, his status has now been further elevated. He has become one of the few "world travelers" in the Nuxu Palace and has a wide range of friends.

After more than a week of running around, Xie Xiaochan had already gathered enough people and carried half of the magic sword "Cunzhi" to the Dongji District to meet Xu Shu.

"Huh? We're about to enter the ruins!"

Seeing this, Xu Shu became excited.

Compared to 'Arthur' who was recovered afterwards, 'Wang Teng' participated in the entire process of the ruins.

This is a good opportunity to use the legendary review to determine the truth about the underground church!
Therefore, Xu Shu no longer dwelled on the origin of the legendary curse. After all, he could study it slowly later. The most urgent thing was to concentrate on watching the movie with all his senses:
[On the first day of the 19th year of the new calendar, you followed Xie Xiaochan to the East Pole War Zone, took a boat across the Sea of ​​Death, and met with the scalper of the ruins tickets you had arranged in advance, and entered the ruins known as the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, the underwater island country.]

[On that day, the nine of you were marching together, originally full of vigor and vigor. Everyone thought that under the leadership of a powerful and great being, this trip to the ruins would be as easy as eating and drinking. However, within an hour, you began to experience a series of setbacks.]

[For example, in the hospital, the third-level corpse king Needle Scar accidentally entered Xie Xiaochan's body and tried to commit murder, but encountered the legendary mama's boy. The power of the two phases was as strong as a monster. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't defeat him. Xie Xiaochan was safe and sound;]

[For example, outside Nagoya, the teammate on the human list suddenly betrayed him, and the protective contract turned into an evil curse to lock his soul. It didn't matter, the mama's boy showed his power again and saved the mother from death. ]

[There are so many difficulties and obstacles that I don’t need to elaborate on them. ]

[Finally, you have arrived at the mysterious and strange Death Ridge, the border between light and darkness.]

[After a night's rest, you entered the Mother Goddess Church during the day on the 2nd, and opened the side door through the trigger, entering the more mysterious interior of the church.]

[This place is decorated to look like the Church of the God of Death, with three statues dedicated to Arthas, the "King of Infinity", the Soul King, the "Son of Death", and Nereilis, the "Maid of Death". ]

[Of course, this is just an appearance. In fact, there are only two targets that contain divinity. One is the sealed incarnation of the great existence (incomplete version); the other is the eyeball of the Dark Mother Goddess.]

[Because it is daytime, the eyeball is dormant in the Iris statue, but it is always monitoring the incarnation of the great existence, waiting for the slightest movement, and will wake up immediately. ]

"It's just like that. I knew this old bastard was staring at me. I was wondering how he could react so quickly. As soon as I took Arthur's spirit, he opened his eyes and killed me instantly. Fortunately, I'm more skilled!"

Xu Shu clenched his fist angrily, indicating that he had remembered this grudge and it was not that he did not want to take revenge but that the time had not come yet. Then he patiently continued to check.

[You discovered the mysterious passage, and immediately went underground, arriving at the mysterious bronze gate.]

[There are countless mysterious monster reliefs on the huge bronze door, and there are even a few ancient small characters on the top. You don’t recognize what these characters are, but fortunately, Taichu Scroll helped you translate them: Prison Gate Border! ]

[This is a divine artifact from ancient times, and three terrifying beings are sealed inside. Unfortunately, you don't know the truth. You think you have found the treasure, so you push the door and go in to look for the treasure, but you don't know that you have been targeted by the terrible evil spirits sealed here.]

[Their names have turned to dust in history, and only a few of them remain on the bronze door, namely "Emperor Shitian" in the first door, "Yamata no Orochi" in the second door, and "Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox" in the third door.]

[Their strength has all reached the fifth level of Yin God: Yin Emperor! ]

[The top of Yin, proud of the world! Even after countless years, and having to endure the suppression of the seal, and being extremely weak, the three Yin Emperors are almost invincible, and not something your teammates can resist. ]

[Sure enough, when the time is right and you go deep into the third level of the temple to take the treasures, the three Yin Emperors who have discussed how to distribute your flesh, blood and essence suddenly attack you! ]

[Among them, Yamata no Orochi turns into a blood-dropping guillotine, and Emperor Shitian turns into a mask of pain, and they are the first to kill your bride Xie Xiaochan and another teammate Gu Pan.]

[Oops, at this moment, an accident happened! ]

[For unknown reasons, the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox suddenly betrayed and entered Gu Pan's body.]

[The Mama's Boy encountered a high-end situation and directly initiated an implosion, which barely blocked the attack of the Yamata no Orochi and saved Xie Xiaochan's life. ]

[Everyone finally realized something was wrong and fled. ]

[The two Yin Emperors chased after them, not wanting to miss the dinner that was about to arrive, but under the constant interference of the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox, who was fighting one against two, the expedition team finally managed to escape from the Bronze Temple at the cost of 60% death.]

[“Tamamonomae, what have you done!”, “Take me with you, and we can put aside our differences!”]

[The two supreme beings roared continuously, but were unable to break the shackles of the seal. They were dragged back into the darkness and could only watch the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox leave the cage.]

“???”Xu Shu.

No, wait.

Did Tamamonomae actually escape that day?

She actually got into Gu Pan's body?

What about after that?

Where did this old fox go after he came out?
Could it be that this person is still inside the teacher's body?
But Gu Pan didn't react at all...

I hope nothing happens to Teacher Pan?
Xu Shu's pupils shrank as he watched, and he was eager to know what was going to happen next.

However, in the subsequent legend, this incident was not given much emphasis, nor was any attention paid to Gu Pan.

This made him feel annoyed, but he had to accept it. After all, his perspective in [Continuation of the Legend] was "Wang Teng", and naturally he could not see the world beyond this subject.

【After this experience, you will never dare to mess around again, and you will wait until dark before leaving the church. 】

[After a series of explorations and battles, Xie Xiaochan takes you, who are dying, out of the ruins and back to the Nuxu Palace.]

[She felt that she was carrying a lot of bad luck, so she stepped into the hot spring and started to take a bath.]

[A day has passed.]

[One night has passed.]

[Another day has passed, and the bride is still taking a bath. During this time, she went out to make a deal with the great being (that is, you), but this did not affect her bathing. ]

[It can be seen that she loves taking baths, because this hot spring is specially provided by the "Saint" of the Nuxu Palace, and is specially drawn from the top floor of the holy land of cultivation. It has many miraculous effects such as accelerating cultivation, beautifying the skin, nourishing yin and kidney, calming the mind, warming the uterus and protecting the fetus. ]

[January 1th, you can start to move now. Friendly reminder, your current condition is very bad, the entire placenta is on the verge of breaking, you need to recuperate in the mother's womb for a few days, it is best not to move around. ]

Xu Shu: “…”

Thank you so much!

How come Xie Xiaochan is the same as my aunt? You women have to take a bath desperately as soon as you see something wrong, right?
Besides, the hot spring water in Nuxu Palace is not very decent. Who would put pregnancy-protecting medicine in the water of a holy place for cultivation? What the hell...

He was quite speechless and complained a few words silently, but still chose to remain motionless.

There was no way. I felt warm lying in Xie Xiaochan’s Queen Wa Palace and really didn’t want to move.

[The bride is taking a bath...]

[You work from sunrise to sunset, and rest from sunset to sunrise. You have experienced a life of ups and downs and struggles on the brink of death in this legendary life. 】

[You have brushed against the taboo many times, but failed to have close contact. The evaluation is not very good. It seems that the table is too slippery and you dare not go up. ]

【But you saved the new mother many times and barely got the guaranteed score. 】

[You get the item: Bloodline (Epic)]

[Number of times opened today: 0/3]

……

At exactly six o'clock in the afternoon, the fog dissipated and the chaos faded away.

Xu Shu fell from an infinite height and returned to reality, back to the luxurious private room of Yuelai Yueshang Hotel, on the soft big bed.

In the Taichu Scroll's item column, there was one more [Bloodline (Epic)] that looked like a genetic spiral test tube. The number had originally been reduced to only two, but now it had quickly increased to three.

However, Xu Shu did not dwell on this.

He immediately turned on the upgrade driver and checked to see if Gu Pan had added him.

After all, judging from the legend just now, the nine-tailed fox from ancient times, which was definitely not "kind", was likely possessed by her.

"I hope nothing happens to Teacher. Otherwise, I will lose another confidant in this matter."

Xu Shu was quite nervous as he searched through the numerous additional messages sent by the maids and nuns of the Mother Goddess Church.

After a while, he let out a sigh of relief.

Found it, ["Jun Mo Xiao" applies to add you as a friend, do you accept? Note:]

A message that is out of place among other messages like "Brother Caowo" stands out in the application.

Xu Shu decisively accepted his friend's request and was about to say something, but then he hesitated.

It has been added, but what is Gu Pan’s current status?
Did the nine-tailed fox do anything to her?

Could it be that, like my aunt, he took over her body?

This is hard to say. How can I ask to confirm it?

Otherwise, I can trick her out into the ruins, and then I can commit suicide on the spot and enter the hyperdimensional mode to see what happens?
No, the super-dimensional mode seems unable to tell whether it is possession or not. I didn't see anything on Gu Yueming before, so I still have to use the legendary mode to detect it. For example, let her stay with Gu Yueming, and then I run and activate [Continue the Legend]!
Xu Shu's expression was twisted as he quickly thought of a way to tell whether you were real or fake.

At this time, Gu Pan took the lead in sending a message: "Traitor! I finally added you. I added you many times before, why did you refuse?"

Um, added me multiple times? Is that true?
This tone seems to be the same as her own...

Xu Shu rolled his eyes for a while, and suddenly an idea came to him, so he sent a message.

"Tamamonomae, still want to escape? Where are you running to!" - Gu Pan.

“??? What the hell are you talking about?” - Jun Moxiao.

No?

Is Tamamonomae pretending, or is there really nothing wrong?

Xu Shu's eyes narrowed slightly, but he did not give up and further selected: [You have initiated a team invitation and applied for location sharing]!
This is a sure kill, because if the other party is up to something, as an ancient visitor, we would definitely not dare to take the risk easily.

So, just give it a try and you’ll know!
Xu Shu smiled complacently.

[The other party agreed to your team invitation]

[Current team size: 2]

Xu Shu: …

Accepted...accepted...

He looked at the location and found that Gu Pan was in the center of area D8B4, which was obviously inside the Star Tower.

Now it can be confirmed that at least she has not been possessed by another body, otherwise her attitude would be like that of my aunt. She would deliberately try to avoid me and would never accept to team up and share a position so easily!

A huge stone was lifted off his chest, and Xu Shu suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

Gu Pan then asked in the team channel: "What? You want to come over to meet me now? Not yet. The two you stuffed in last time were too big and it hurt me so much that I almost died. I still haven't recovered yet."

"?"

Xu Shu's just relaxed expression froze for a moment.

She, what is she talking about?
What two are too big?

Doesn’t look that serious…

Oh, are you talking about the two thick and long "bloodline appearances" after leaving the temple?
Almost forgot!

Xu Shu slapped his head, suddenly realized, and prepared to reply.

But before he could finish typing, Gu Pan on the other end asked first: "What did you just send? What Tamamonomae?"

Xu Shu thought for a moment and sent a message: "A test. This is what happened. When I left the ruins, I found a fox demon hiding in my body. It wanted to harm me. Its name was Tamamonomae. I was lucky enough to block it. I'm afraid you may have it too, so I'm asking this."

This is of course a lie, and in fact this is the real temptation.

The purpose was actually to remind Gu Pan implicitly, letting her know that something might be attached to her body, and it would be best if she could seek help from a powerful demigod to exorcise the evil spirit.

This time, almost half a minute passed before Gu Pan replied, "You actually have the scent of a fox on you? Damn it, I had it on me too, but it disappeared on its own later."

"That's good." Xu Shu said.

Seeing Gu Pan's answer, he was completely relieved and was sincerely happy that Teacher Pan was not killed by the evil spirit.

But at the same time, I also started to speculate.

According to the information obtained in the legend, Tamamonomae did escape from the seal of "Prison Gate", so where did she go?

Was it that he was unable to escape from that passage in the church?

Or, in the process, did he enter the "border between light and darkness", that is, the Death Ridge, and leave on his own?
Of course, it is also possible that she returned to Japan with him, back to the place where she had appeared before?

It seems that if I want to go back and get the "Kamiya No. 1" mark in the future, I will have to be on guard against Tamamonomae's move?

Xu Shu had a lot of thoughts in his mind.

At this time, Gu Pan sent him another message: "I want to practice. After I retreat for a month to digest those two big things, I will talk to you about my aunt! Please keep an eye on her for me, don't let her run away. In addition, your filial piety is commendable. Of course, there is no need to thank each other between master and disciple. In the future, your master will support you and compensate you, and let you live a prosperous life!"

God damn, all the chickens and dogs are promoted to heaven...

Xu Shu couldn't help but smile bitterly, replied with an "OK", and left the team.

He looked at the sky outside the window, rubbed his hands and said, "Now that things have come to this, it's time to eat again."

……

D8B4 safe zone, around the Star Tower, a quiet room rented out by the Astronomical Society.

As a former second-class safety zone and now a third-class safety zone that is trying to restore its treatment, the local astronomical society has issued a large number of rewards to encourage local extraordinary people to expedition into the wilderness and search for new clues to large-scale ruins.

As corresponding logistics, the local area has set up many training rooms around the Star Tower that can be used as long as a fee is paid.

As well as various extremely inexpensive medical treatments, food, and even garrison companies that can be hired. All of this is to support the pioneers as much as possible, so that everyone can complete team building, treatment, and logistics as quickly as possible, and most importantly, to obtain the corresponding internal motivation in a timely manner - there is no incentive that can make people flock to it more than the ability to improve their strength and wealth as soon as they return from pioneering.

It can be said that in order to restore its former glory, District D8B4 is really working hard and racking its brains to get everyone moving, rather than just talking about it.

At this time, in one of the quiet rooms.

Gu Pan, who had just finished a phone call with a student, sat cross-legged on the ground with a suspicious look on his face.

She frowned as she looked at the blue-quality protective charm she had just bought, which strangely could not be successfully stored because the "grid was full".

After hesitating for a long time, Gu Pan seemed to have made up his mind. He tilted his head slightly and immersed his will into the spiritual realm of the "Grandmaster" extraordinary person, the "sea of ​​consciousness", and called out softly:

"Old...Senior Xiaojiu. I have something I want to ask you."

"Hmm? What's the matter, little guy? You can relax a little with me, but you don't have to worry about it. I'm not like your old and conservative ancestor. Hehehe~" A charming and charming laugh sounded ethereal.

A mature and charming woman was sitting with her legs crossed, peeling her nails vaguely, as if she was in some special state.

The one-legged Kuiniu next to her gave her a cold look but said nothing more.

Seeing this, Gu Pan calmed down and asked carefully, "Do you have an accomplice named Tamamonomae, oh no, companion, who escaped with you?"

“……” The expression on Xiaojiu’s face froze.

After a while, the nine-tailed white fox stopped joking and asked more seriously, "Where did you hear that?"

Gu Pan said confidently: "Every one of my teammates who came out with me said that they were possessed by a fox demon who claimed to be Tamamonomae."

"Every one? How many?"

"Eight." Gu Pan looked at the other's tail and opened his mouth.

"?" The nine-tailed fox was stunned for a moment, confusion written all over her pretty face.

Eight?

How could this happen???
Are they all Tamamonomae?
that…

So who am I?

Have I, my memory, and my spirit been polluted...

Damn, damn those two horrible women...

The sea of ​​consciousness fell into a long silence.

"Senior Xiaojiu? Is there any problem?"

"Don't make any noise, I'm thinking."

"Oh……"

……

……

At eight o'clock in the evening, Xu Shu came out of the Star Tower calmly.

Just now he had found Lao Gang from Pangu Machinery and purchased a batch of single-piece level 10 third-order crystals.

The price of this batch is slightly higher than the previous level 4 and 5 ones. Of course, they look similar in appearance, after all, they are still in the "early stage of level 3".

After stockpiling the cultivation materials, he spent another half an hour communicating with Xiaoya about the situation. After learning that the Judgment Division still had nothing to show for it today, he continued to cultivate with peace of mind.

A night of practice always makes people physically and mentally exhausted. It is best to continue the legend at this time, and it is also a feast for the eyes.
Can accumulate experience√, always monitor my aunt√

Occasionally, I would revisit the journey to the underground temple with Xie Xiaochan to review the past and learn new things.

In order to ensure that nothing was missed, Xu Shu even made a small black leather notebook to record the gains of each legend:

-

January 1th, nothing happened, I prayed in the bathtub with my aunt; the witch's prayer was warm, can this be called exorcism? It felt like a massage for me. Obtained a blue Xuan seal. Rubbish.

……

January 1, nothing happened, I paid attention to Master Zhu. I can only watch her for a few days at a time, and I won't see her again later. I can't skip it. I miss Master Zhu when I can't see her. Blood relationship +7
……

On January 1, I took a bath with the bride. She is small and cute. Blood relationship +8
……

On January 1th, I took a bath with my aunt.

……

January 1th, I missed my master, so I went to see her. Of course, she is not my master, but the master of the little bride. Blood relationship +10
……

1 month 11 day.

Xu Shu, oh Xu Shu, how could you be so depraved and addicted to this!

A day's plan begins in the morning. Playfulness leads to failure and diligence leads to success. From today on, you must stick to the Tao!

Adjust your murderous intentions, accumulate resources, and be sure to find out all those who have offended me and trample them hard under your feet!!!

After three expeditions, he harvested three crystals (with a total value of less than 3), destroyed a den of prostitution, and killed three first-level extraordinary people who were the masterminds behind the scenes.

Three white props.

Come on, be full of energy every day!

effort!

Practice!!
struggle!!!

……

January 1, taking a bath.

In the womb, he reminisces about the time he spent fighting with his bride, recalling the good and bad times.

……

On January 1, Alice finally woke up. She started by saying that I was very mean for not coming home for several days. It was really frustrating because I was the one who saved her!
But it doesn't matter, after I comforted her (compensated her with two excellent crystals), she apologized to me and said I was the best person in the world. Her attitude was very sincere.

When I was practicing with her at night, Alice sneaked in and lay on top of me. Did she think I didn't know? It was so funny. I was too lazy to expose her. It was quite healing.

According to her, the enemy who came to our house that day was a rather powerful "Cardinal", and it was just before I left home to go to the Sea of ​​Death.

Bruce White?
Humph, anyone who dares to mess with me will be punished by death.

The entire Red Emperor Army will be buried with him!
……

1 month 14 day.

Take a bath.

I really want to drain the water from Master's bathtub. It's so annoying! This is the first time I feel that water is such an inconvenient thing.

In addition, the cat ball can be used to rub the back, which is very effective.

…………

……

If you look at them day after day, even for such stunning beauties as XX Zhu and Gu Yueming, there will always be a day when you get tired of them.

It can even be said to be quite annoying. After all, these guys have no self-control and spend most of their time taking a bath.

Gu Yueming was especially called upon to soak in the bathing pool and not get up. He was told to either pray in the pool or practice in the pool.

Sometimes Xu Shu really wanted to drain the annoying foamy water!

It's a pity that I can't draw it, as that would easily expose my existence.

Under such circumstances, Xu Shu would occasionally set aside time to go outside the city to explore in expedition mode to see if he could collect any folk rumors about the [Four Bitternesses].

But there has been no gain.

There is nothing new in the Penglai Wasteland, they are all dirty things. Some of them can be dealt with by Xu Shu, making the reputation of the Conqueror King Yu Mingluan more famous; for others, he can only pretend not to see them. One reason is that the sins are not serious enough and he is too lazy to care about them. The other reason is that there is a very powerful Baiyujing Director Group behind the other party, which he cannot afford to offend.

Xu Shu certainly knew that in this world, even if one wanted to be a nosy person, one had to have enough capital.

What is capital?

Capital is not money, it is strength. Strong strength is the real capital!
Therefore, most of the time, Xu Shu stayed in the city, working hard to improve his cultivation.

He even changed his schedule for this purpose, from wasting the whole day on Legendary games to patrolling and waiting in the city in the morning, and then spending a few more hours in the afternoon after the sun went down, spending 12 hours to draw three times, taking advantage of the Taichu Volume that would not be calculated.

In fact, since the 5th, there has been a feeling of impending storm in Baiyu Capital.

The Judgment Department posted notices everywhere, stepping up efforts to search for members of the Red Emperor Army in the city, while also offering a large reward to encourage the public to actively report all lawless elements.

The whole city was in turmoil for a while, and every criminal was in danger.

Originally, everyone thought that this kind of thing was just a face-saving project and would be over in a few days.

After all, Baiyujing is a very traditional place, and they celebrate the Lunar New Year's Eve. Now that the New Year is coming to an end, your soldiers from the Judgment Department must go home to celebrate the New Year and reunite with their families, right?
But no.

No one expected that it wouldn’t be over after three days, five days, one week or two weeks, and now that the New Year was almost here, it still wasn’t over!

The Judgment Department's search was almost to the point of digging three feet underground! As long as there was a clue, they would go to great lengths to find it, not even sparing an ant!
Now everyone understands that the Judgment Bureau is serious!

Under such circumstances, a large number of underground forces that had nothing to do with the Red Emperor Army and had been thriving in the lower city for many years were unfortunately dug out.

The innocent are affected.

But there are too many fish in the pond. The lower city has been harboring filth and corruption over the years, and no one knows how many people are lurking here.

Maybe some of the upper echelons of Baiyujing were involved. How can they just clear out the whole thing?
The Judgment Department was under such heavy pressure that it even provoked a crazy counterattack from the other side.

For a time, the Judgment Department was in constant friction with various forces in Baiyujing, and wars were going on every day.

But the Astronomical Society is the Astronomical Society, and the Arbitration Department is the Arbitration Department. Even though they were alone against a hundred people, they still overwhelmed the crowd and destroyed a large number of dens.

Emphasize a firm attitude: criminals must be eliminated! Evil must be brought to justice!

This is why Xu Shu reduced the daily legendary bathing time to only three hours.

Because during this period, he was called by Xiaoya to join the battle many times.

All I can say is that you have to suffer through the first volume of Taichu first, and let Xiaoya bear the blame.

Unfortunately, with such an exaggerated search intensity, countless small fish and shrimps in the lower city of Baiyujing were caught, but the real target, the members of the Salvation Army headed by White and Yan Hui, were always hiding and no trace could be found.

Especially Voodoo, the "mechanical expert", who has three burrows. Xiaoya has found his hiding places many times, but in the end she could only kill one puppet, which was time-consuming, laborious and costly.

Xu Shu sometimes asked her, "You are acting so recklessly. Isn't it obvious that you are being led by the other party?"
Wouldn't your boss give you pressure for wasting so much manpower and resources without achieving any initial success?
Don’t the top management criticize you during the weekly meeting every week?

Xiaoya was also very straightforward: "Sister, I have a good reputation and can handle this little storm! I will definitely restore a bright and clear sky to this city!"

Since she was so ambitious and dared to think and act, Xu Shu didn't say anything and just waited patiently.

It is worth mentioning that in this situation where the whole city was in turmoil, perhaps because a large number of originally inconspicuous small-scale underworld organizations were eliminated, the reputation of the Judgment Bureau among the people was really booming, and it even had the momentum to surpass Baiyujing at one point.

Xu Shu felt that there might be some unimaginable trick going on here.

Perhaps, the purpose of the Judgment Department was not just as simple as uncovering the Red Emperor Legion gang?
But it has nothing to do with me.

For Xu Shu, these days, which seemed like a disaster to others, were actually quite stable for him.

In the beginning, he was always surrounded by dangers in the wasteland and had little time to develop; now that he is hiding in the safe zone and has the support of the Judgment Department, he is relatively stable.

Every day I would start my crazy practice at the right time, take a legendary bath, practice, patrol, and continue taking a legendary bath.

It even made him a little addicted.

In this state of concentration, people always feel that time is not enough, and they have the courage and perseverance to grind an iron rod into a needle with hard work.

……

The sage said: There are no years in P.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is the end of the month.

January 19, 1 in the New Calendar.

It is also the New Year's Eve of the lunar calendar year 2142.

In order to enhance the festive atmosphere, red lanterns were hung up in every household in Shangcheng District before dawn, making it look extremely festive.

From time to time, the crackling sound of firecrackers could be heard from below, which would attract a group of patrols from the Judgment Department to drive people away - as everyone knows, in this city, firecrackers can only be set off in the upper city area, but not in the lower city area.

This is a symbol of status.

This is also for safety reasons.

But there are always people who disobey orders, and there are always people who want to take advantage of the chaos to fish in troubled waters, thus adding obstacles to the anti-gang operation that the Judgment Bureau does not forget to carry out on New Year's Eve.

At 3:30 in the morning, amid the noise of gongs and drums.

With a plop, blood splattered everywhere. Xu Shu, who had been lying in the pool of blood for almost a month, stood up again from the pool of blood which was darker than usual and looked a little dark red because it was too thick.

Every inch of his skin was trembling slightly.

Every pore was shrinking and inhaling and exhaling mist visibly.

The thumping sound of the heartbeat is like the shaking of the earth, it is the most powerful engine.

The whole person presents an aura of perfection, satisfaction and sharpness.

After a long time, Xu Shu finally suppressed the urge to roar to the sky, suppressed the urge to split the building in half, and slightly thrust his hips to activate the upgrade drive.

A screen of light particles condensed in front of him.

[Scanning your curse seal...]

[It is detected that you have reached level 12 of the third stage. You will definitely comprehend the breakthrough skills of the third stage curse seal. In-depth testing is in progress...]

"finally!"

As the familiar sound of electric current came out from his underwear and traveled all over his body, as if searching every cell, Xu Shu couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth slightly.

After more than half a month of intensive training, he finally made great progress and was promoted to a mid-third-order master!
Even though I knew I had a breakthrough just now, after all, the pain during that kind of breakthrough is several times more violent than usual and cannot be faked.

However, every time I see the upgraded driver officially scan and give the results, I still have a different sense of expectation.

The electric current travels throughout the body and eventually appears on the screen.

"I felt it was a bit strange from the beginning. This situation started when I started my retreat more than half a month ago, and it has continued vaguely until now. This unique skill..."

Xu Shu narrowed his eyes slightly, and when he saw the unique skill 'Two-Finger Zen', he couldn't help but tremble his hands.

He took a deep breath and slowly felt the changes in himself.

His index and middle fingers were itching and trembling, eager for a fight!
Also longing for...

Drain all the water?

Xu Shu couldn't help but look at the pool of blood next to him and reached his hand in.

Stir, pinch, and pull!
Pattering!
In an instant, all the blood in the bathtub condensed into a water dragon like a mad dragon sucking water, and automatically rolled back into his hand, turning into a round water column the size of a thumb.

And in the bathtub, there was not a drop left.

Uprooted!

Not a drop left!

The next second, Xu Shu was still itching to do it. Apparently, it was his first time using his unique skills and he was not satisfied yet. He felt empty inside and had to do it again quickly to feel better.

As a result, his gaze naturally fell on the side, and his steps involuntarily moved closer.

This is the flush toilet that the cat just used.

Lifting the lid, there is a pool of water, a small spring, full of attraction! It seems to say that this is a good place to practice!
"..."

"?"

Xu Shu's expression froze.

"and many more……"

"Wait a moment!"

"No! You can't do this!"

"You can't fucking do this~"
