Chapter 223 Eight Black Coffins!
The whole underground palace gives people a gloomy feeling, but this gloom has a hint of extraordinary flavor.
It has an indescribable grandeur and mystery.
The eight towering towers are covered by the ghost totems on the surrounding walls.
These eight towering towers seem to dominate one side, symbolizing a brilliant civilization.
If a scholar sees the murals on the wall, he will be surprised to find that the lines and depiction methods of these murals have the shadow of the Sixth and Fifth Ages, and can even be traced back to a longer time.
The lines carved on the top of the copper tower that sprang up in the underground palace due to the arrival of the gray-eyed young man are vaguely consistent with the lines on the top of a tower on the wall.
The gray-eyed young man gently threw the book in his hand and skillfully tucked it under his armpit.
He swung the two bells tied to the hem of his clothes and stepped into the copper tower.
There are very fresh traces of activities inside the copper tower, which means that there are always people living here on weekdays.
Sensing some dust under his feet, a drop of dark red blood was stained on the bronze statue on the high platform not far away.
The gray-eyed young man snorted coldly.
"It seems that you have been lazy during my absence!"
As he spoke, the gray-eyed young man raised his hand, and a long whip with a gray-black color and misty mist lingering above it appeared in his hand.
The gray-eyed young man swung forward, and it seemed that he was whipping the air, but it hit an object firmly.
Then there was a muffled groan and the sound of a broken mirror.
A strange humanoid creature collapsed on the ground, and its mirror-like body was shattered by the whip.
After doing all this, the gray-eyed young man stretched and ordered.
"You choose a steward by yourselves, and I will still ask the steward if there is anything that makes me dissatisfied!"
The mirror candle demon is a creature born from fairies and humans.
It has always been a taboo for humanoid beasts to breed with humans.
The offspring of humanoid beasts and humans are no different from ordinary people when they are young, but they will grow strange lines on their bodies when they grow up.
Once these offspring of humanoid beasts and humans grow strange lines, they will show various characteristics such as fear of light, fear of water, and gluttony.
These people were once considered ominous people, and it is often difficult for them to live for five years after the lines appear on their bodies.
The normal human federation regards these people as taboos, but the Eternal Alchemy Society likes them very much.
The offspring of these humanoid beasts and humans are excellent experimental materials.
Even the Eternal Alchemy Society will deliberately cultivate some humanoid beasts and force these humanoid beasts to breed with humans to conduct some evil experiments.
The Mirror Candle Demon is the offspring of the beautiful humanoid male beast Mirror Flower Candle Spirit and human females.
And in the process of breeding, a large amount of the blood of the mirror flower candle spirit is introduced into the embryo, so that the mirror candle monster inherits some of the characteristics of the mirror flower candle spirit at birth, which is very different from humans.
The new work developed by the Eternal Alchemy Society in the past ten years is widely used by it as a servant.
The body of the mirror candle monster is completely in a mirror state, which can be perfectly hidden in the surrounding environment.
It can adjust the brightness of the house by burning its body, and its super high IQ can perfectly complete the work assigned by the master.
Even if the mirror candle monster works on the side, it will not have much presence, which is very suitable for those who like quiet.
The gray-eyed young man does not need to get an answer. No mirror candle monster dares to make a sound in front of the gray-eyed young man.
Once a mirror candle monster makes a sound, the remains on the ground will be its own end!
Some mirror candle monsters deliberately cut off their tongues to prevent themselves from losing control.
The young man walked all the way to the second to last floor of the tower.
The second to last floor of the tower is a huge teleportation array, which is much more sophisticated than the teleportation array of the Beastmaster Alliance.
The gray-eyed young man stood in the magic circle. Under the violent fluctuation of space, the figure of the gray-eyed young man disappeared in the center of the magic circle.
Only the dull ringing sound of the bell on his waist remained.
When the gray-eyed young man appeared again, he was already in a larger tower.
There were eight black coffins in the hall of the tower.
Seeing that the other six black coffins were closed and only his own black coffin was still open, the gray-eyed young man walked in quickly.
As soon as the gray-eyed young man entered the black coffin, the lid of the black coffin closed automatically, and a charming female voice came to his ears.
"Jiling, you are the last one again, we don't have so much time to wait for you!"
The gray-eyed young man said coldly in the black coffin.
"You can not wait for me, but I have never asked you to wait for me!"
The charming female voice did not speak again, but the gray-eyed young man called Jiling clearly heard the sound of teeth rubbing and colliding in his ears.
"Alright! You two always quarrel, we didn't come here to listen to you quarrel!"
"Youyu's party was originally initiated by Ji Ling, if you are not interested, you don't have to come!"
The voice was extremely peaceful, and it was impossible to tell the specific age or even gender.
But this voice made the grinding sound even louder.
"Ji Ling, what exactly is the reason for you to take the initiative to ask for the party this time?"
"I heard that you have been very close to the Eternal Alchemy Society recently. I advise you not to let the Eternal Alchemy Society's things taint our pursuit of immortality!"
The gray-eyed young man smiled indifferently when he heard this.
"How can I possibly like something that even you don't like? "
"The Eternal Alchemy Society transformed the people into something neither human nor ghost. No matter how you look at it, this choice is inferior."
"Even if you live forever, you are still like a monster. Even your mind has changed under the erosion of time."
"You have always had an ambiguous relationship with the ancient sprout, haven't you? The Eternal Alchemy Society and I are just taking what we need."
"There are two things I want to say this time. The first thing is that I heard from the Eternal Alchemy Society that the Evil Heart Sect attacked the Dragon Federation."
"Does Whale Jie know about this?"
The Whale Jie, who was named by the gray-eyed young man, sneered.
"I have had some cooperation with the top leaders of the Evil Heart Sect, but the Evil Heart Sect does not need to tell me all their actions."
"If there is a problem, I can't help the Evil Heart Sect to bear the responsibility!"
"The Evil Heart Sect has previously targeted those small and medium-sized federations and dare not easily offend the large federations."
"They dared to take action against the Dragon Teng Federation this time, which must be because those high-level beasts made some promises to the Evil Heart Sect."
"The Dragon Teng Federation has a very high status in the Ten Thousand Nations Federation. The Ten Thousand Nations Federation will most likely take action against the Evil Heart Sect this time."
Whale Jie's words revealed a sense of gloating, as if the Evil Heart Sect, which had cooperated with him, had problems, which was a very happy thing.
The charming female voice sounded again after Whale Jie finished speaking, and her tone was full of disdain.
"The top leaders of the Federation of All Nations are controlled by the Creators."
"Creators are all egoists, and they will not easily use their own orders to cut their own cakes!"
"Master Runyu in the Federation of All Nations is very close to the Evil Heart Sect, how could he choose to move the Evil Heart Sect?"
"Master Runyu has formed a very deep party since he was promoted from an intermediate Creator Master to a senior Creator Master."
"These people are all Master Runyu's white gloves!"
The wind suddenly blew up and rippled the spring water. At this time, the seven people in the black coffin knew that the direction of the world was about to change.
But no matter what, the seven people in the black coffin were sure that they could stay out of trouble no matter which way the wind blew.
There was a feeling that the world was a chess game, and as a chess player, he could indulge in the game on the chessboard without holding the pieces.
An unusually serious middle-aged male voice interrupted Youyu's words.
"I don't care what the impact will be, I just want to know the purpose of the Evil Heart Sect."
"If there is no sufficient interest support, I don't think the Evil Heart Sect will make a mortal enemy with the Dragon Federation."
You Yu said unhappily.
"Zhu Xing, no matter what you care about, you shouldn't interrupt me, I..."
You Yu was just interrupted by Zhu Xing, and now she was interrupted by Ji Ling again.
"The reason is not clear yet."
"Although I have some connection with the Eternal Alchemy Society, the people of the Evil Heart Sect cannot tell the Eternal Alchemy Society all the reasons for their actions."
"The Eternal Alchemy Society speculates that the actions of the Evil Heart Sect may be related to the request of the blood clan."
"It is said that the crazy group of blood clan listened to the oracle of Queen Yin Lisi. Xue Jian has more say in this matter than me."
Xue Jian's reaction makes people know at a glance that Xue Jian is probably aware of some internal information.
Xue Jian is not only close to the Evil Heart Sect, but it is even possible that he is a member of the high-level blood clan.
However, since Xuejian was unwilling to answer questions, many things could not be confirmed.
Everyone was in the black coffin together, but they knew very little about each other.
"Ji Ling, I remember you have another thing to say. Let's talk about the next thing first."
"If I get any definite news, I will not hesitate to hold a meeting on my own initiative."
Ji Ling didn't care when he heard it.
Everyone has their own news channels, and many things can be roughly understood through the original news channels, and there is no need to break the casserole to get to the bottom of it.
Because once you ask, you have to pay the corresponding price.
The price you have to pay to get news from these people is not light at all!
"The second thing is of great importance. I need you to swear to the black coffin you are in with Xuan Zhang."
"No matter whether you have heard similar news before or will know it in the future."
"As long as you make a profit because of the news I said, you must provide me with 10% of the total income as a reward, and I am willing to tell you."
Ji Ling's words made the other six people in the black coffin frown suddenly.
Ji Ling dared to make such a request, which means that this news is definitely not simple!
It's just that everyone is not sure whether they will receive the news that Ji Ling said in the future, or whether they have received it now.
Zhu Xing said in a serious tone.
"Ji Ling, every time you make a request, I want to refuse, but I can't refuse."
"Before we swear to the Black Coffin with the Xuan Zhang, you should at least reveal some of the news."
"So that we can know whether we already know the news you said!"
"Who would pay you if it was already known?"
Ji Ling said calmly after hearing the words.
"You can add this point before swearing to the Black Coffin."
"I don't trust you, but I trust the restraint of the Black Coffin."
"You won't give up the opportunity to use a Xuan Zhang for these benefits. After all, I only want 10%."
After hearing what Ji Ling said, everyone had no reason to refuse and swore an oath with Xuan Zhang.
With the contract as a guarantee, Ji Ling said calmly.
"According to the remaining classics, we know which force we inherited, so you should all know the Epoch Temple!"
"A large relic appeared on the outskirts of the Hangu Federation. The Hangu Federation has not been able to explore this relic in recent years and does not allow other federations to get involved."
"I got the news that this relic came from the Xia Shi Temple, one of the four main halls of the Epoch Temple."
"Is this news enough for you to pay me the reward!?"
As soon as Ji Ling's words came out, no sound came from the other six black coffins for a long time.
In the third black coffin, there was a man with short silver hair and bloodshot eyes, and his wrinkled Tong Kong showed uneasiness.
It was as if a piece of news that he had concealed for a long time was suddenly revealed by someone.
Although he knew the corresponding news, Xuejian did not say anything until the end, as if he had tacitly agreed to Ji Ling's request just now.
Seeing that he had not heard any objections for a long time, Ji Ling said softly.
"In that case, I will take it as your tacit agreement to the oath you just made."
"If you have nothing to do, this party held by me will end here!"
"I hope I can hear what you have gained for me at the next party!"
As soon as Ji Ling finished speaking, he was ready to leave the black coffin first. Generally, the person who convened the party first left first, and then returned to the tower where he was in the order of the black coffin through the teleportation array.
Because of this rule, the people in the black coffin had no chance to meet each other.
In many cases, not meeting is not only not a bad thing, but can be regarded as a very good thing.
In the tower, the life span will not be lost, as long as you stay in the tower, you can have endless life span.
This is why the people in the black coffin look down on the Eternal Alchemy Society.
What the Eternal Alchemy Society desperately pursues can be easily obtained as long as you stay in the tower.
But before Ji Ling opened the coffin lid, he heard an old voice.
"Don't leave in a hurry. Refraction has been dead for nearly four hundred years. We can't keep one of the black coffins empty."
"I suggest that we take in a newcomer. What do you want from me?"
The old man was the coffin keeper who had been silent since the beginning of the party.
The old man's words made Ji Ling stop in his tracks.
All the people in the black coffins respected the old man very much. The old voice was something that shouldn't have happened to the forces they belonged to.
This old man was one of the earliest members of the forces. Many people joined the forces under the guidance of the old man.
Ji Ling said in a deep voice.
"I don't have any requirements for the coffin keeper. As long as you are satisfied with this newcomer, that's fine!"
"I think most other people have the same idea as me."
No one likes to be represented by others to express their opinions, but now no one objects even though Ji Ling forced them to express their opinions.
They all agreed with Ji Ling's statement.
The old man chuckled at the situation.
"Since you all trust me, I will select a good candidate for the organization before I perish!"
After each black coffin is opened, it will take at least five minutes before the next black coffin is opened again.
In the end, all the black coffins were opened.
There was no figure in the magnificent hall.
Fang Mu had already set off for Ludu.
On the one hand, he went to Ludu because Feng Chenhao was going to move Taoyao's headquarters from Qingcangsheng to Ludu.
As the second major city of Longteng Federation after Wangdu, Ludu is the core of the entire Longteng Federation's commerce.
In many industries, Ludu is better than Wangdu.
But no matter what, Ludu cannot surpass Wangdu's actual status.
Because the headquarters of the eight official organizations are all located in Wangdu, not Ludu.
The Taoyao brand is highly commercial, and it is worth Fang Mu's trip.
The Wanyu Festival in Ludu will start in a week. I heard from She Wan that Wanxiang Carp appeared at the Wanyu Festival in Ludu last year.
And Wanxiang Carp is not the best aquatic beast that appeared at the Wanyu Festival.
This greatly aroused Fang Mu's interest.
On the other hand, Fang Yuan sent a message to Fang Mu, saying that two six-pointed star beast masters were willing to be loyal to Jianmu Chamber of Commerce.
The two did not make any requests, but just said that they hoped to have a meeting with the senior management of Jianmu Chamber of Commerce.
Fang Yuan's mind has always been on the Chamber of Commerce Festival, and he has no energy to go to Ludu.
The two six-pointed star beast masters in Ludu put on an attitude that they hope Fang Yuan will be courteous.
Fang Yuan was unwilling to give up the loyalty of the two six-pointed star beast masters.
Since the other party wanted to talk in person, Fang Yuan did not make any promises on the phone.
Fang Yuan hoped that if Fang Mu had time, he could take the initiative to contact the two six-pointed star beast masters, or use She Wan's relationship to let the She family come forward and communicate with the two six-pointed star beast masters on his behalf.
The She family is one of the five families in Ludu, which is enough to explain the problem.
It just so happened that Shui Miao and Jinniu both said that the Longteng Federation took the initiative to call them, and then they could directly arrange for the two to meet in Ludu.
Through the teleportation array of the Beastmaster Alliance, Fang Mu appeared in the downtown area of Ludu from JA City in a short while.
As a private driver, Yin Nanzhen was taken to Ludu by Fang Mu.
At this time, Yin Nanzhen was full of complaints that the two six-pointed star beast masters in Ludu would put on airs.
They were so arrogant that they were unwilling to go to the capital, waiting for Fang Mu to come!
Before meeting Fang Mu, Yin Nanzhen also had a lot of uncertainty in his heart, fearing that he would not get any results this time.
The two six-pointed star beast masters in Ludu obviously wanted to give Fang Mu a warning and wanted to eat with a hard bowl.
Fang Mu looked like a teenager, but he had a deeper mind than many adults.
So for Fang Mu, all his willfulness would come at a price!
It would directly affect the treatment he would receive in the future!
