"What, death?"

Chu Xuan's expression changed..

When he accepted the mission, Liu Bao had mentioned to him that the outer sect missions were divided into normal, difficult, dangerous and death levels..

Most of the outer disciples are Normal and Difficult..

Dangerous. Not even one in a few years..

Death level. It's not bad to have one in ten years..

Unfortunately, Chu Xuan was unlucky. Not only was his first quest dangerous, but now it was upgraded to death. Chu Xuan wanted to vomit blood..

"Senior, can't you just pull out the precious medicine and return directly to Qingyun Palace?" he hurriedly asked.

Lu Yuan saw through Chu Xuan's thoughts at a glance and shook his head helplessly." Chu Xuan, this isn't me scamming you. It's just that those precious medicines are special. They can only grow and mature in the special environment of that secret realm. If you forcibly dig them away, unless you have the ability to refine pills on the spot, they will wither very quickly and completely lose their medicinal efficacy..

”

" I guess the Ghost Emperor Palace has calculated this accurately. That's why they took the precious medicine that this old man guards. Even if this old man discovers it, this old man will not be able to ask the Azure Cloud Palace for help in the short term!"

Lu Yuan was also depressed when he mentioned this. Then, his expression became extremely serious." Chu Xuan, I know that it is indeed too much for a new disciple like you to accept a death-level mission. Now, I will give you two options..

”

"One, you give up the mission and leave quickly..

”

" Second, you stay here and help me guard this place for ten days. After ten days, the reinforcements from the Qingyun Palace will arrive. What choice do you have?"

Lu Yuan and the group of servant disciples looked at Chu Xuan with bright eyes..

Chu Xuan was also conflicted..

To be honest, he wanted to run. After all, he just couldn't complete the mission..

But he knew better. He could run, but he couldn't..

In the secret realm, he killed the evil spirit. The old man in the evil spirit's eyes had threatened to kill him. Chu Xuan felt that it was safer to stay by the side of an aerial master if he went back alone with him..

Chu Xuan's expression became firm." Senior, since I joined the Qingyun Palace, I will naturally advance and retreat with you..

”

In a word, you fight, I fight, you run, I run.

Chu Xuan answered very simply..

Lu Yuan couldn't help but admire Chu Xuan greatly." Good, good, I was right about you. Don't worry, I owe you a favor this time! Also, this is the reward you received for completing the mission of killing evil spirits. Ten Heavenly Essence Pills!"

It turned out that the reward for the dangerous level mission was in Lu Yuan's hands..

Chu Xuan cried out in his heart. If he had chosen to leave just now, it would not have been so easy to obtain the Heavenly Essence Pill..

" But Senior, isn't our Azure Cloud Palace the strongest? Why are we afraid of the Ghost Emperor Palace?" Chu Xuan asked curiously..

Lu Yuan smiled bitterly..

" Kid, do you know how many empires there are in our Northern Wasteland Region? There are hundreds of them! According to the scope of influence, they are divided into three palaces and one palace. Our Azure Cloud Palace is the three palaces and one palace is the Ghost Emperor Palace. Below it, there are many hidden sects and cultivation families. Although their strength is not as strong as our three palaces, they are not to be underestimated..

”

"Especially the Ghost Emperor Palace. They fought against us for territory and were defeated in many battles. However, I didn't expect the Ghost Emperor Palace to be so insidious when they couldn't fight openly..

”

"In short, everyone should pay attention these few days. Ghost eggs are extremely important to the Ghost Emperor Palace. Since they have been discovered, they will definitely come and snatch them..

”

Speaking of this, Lu Yuan's expression turned solemn..

The faces of the other servant disciples changed drastically. Panic appeared on their faces..

Chu Xuan finally understood why Lu Yuan wanted him to stay. Among these people, other than Lu Yuan and him, there was probably not a single one who could fight..

Even Chu Xuan was not confident in facing such a powerful force as the Ghost Emperor Palace for the first time. Therefore, the only thing he could do now was to improve himself as much as possible before the Ghost Emperor Palace came..

Therefore, Chu Xuan immediately asked Lu Yuan to prepare a cultivation room for himself..

：.

Fast forward to entering..

Lu Yuan also looked at Chu Xuan with admiration." Not only does this kid have talent, but he also has courage. If he can overcome this difficulty, I can recommend him to the higher-ups.".

”

Following that, Lu Yuan began to command his servant disciples and set up various defenses..

After entering the cultivation room, Chu Xuan also looked at the Heavenly Essence Pill in his hand and found it difficult. The pill was a good pill, but the timing was not right. After all, according to Lu Yuan's instructions, the experts of the Ghost Emperor Palace would come at any time..

" Lord Tower, what do you think? Should I improve my cultivation or my martial arts first?" Chu Xuan asked in a deep voice..

The tower spirit immediately replied firmly,"In this situation, it's still important to save your life. Your cultivation can be slow.".

I suggest that you use this time to try to break through the second layer of the Devil Dragon Body.

”

Chu Xuan's eyes lit up when he heard these words. He had already cultivated the Demon Dragon Body to the limit of the first level in the Azure Cloud Palace. However, the second level required too much demonic Qi. Just relying on the Heaven Devouring Pot to convert demonic Qi was obviously too slow..

However, if it was the Heavenly Yuan Pill…

Chu Xuan immediately took out five pills and threw them into the Heaven Devouring Jar without hesitation..

Currently, the Heaven Devouring Jar had two main uses in Chu Xuan's hands. One was to refine spiritual herbs into spiritual liquid, which would help him increase his realm. It would also obtain similar effects to medicinal pills..

The second is to transform the demonic Qi and cultivate the demonic dragon body with the demonic Qi..

The Devil Dragon Body had a distinct characteristic. It could not be attacked by a lower realm, and it could not be killed by a higher realm. Therefore, Chu Xuan dared to resist Liu Yan's attack when he was in the Spirit Gathering Realm..

The defense of the Demon Dragon Body was definitely Chu Xuan's strongest life-saving method..

Therefore, when Chu Xuan discovered that the medicinal power of the Heavenly Essence Pill had been transformed into demonic Qi, he immediately began to use this demonic Qi to train his body crazily. His body once again emitted a sharp pain that felt like his flesh and blood were being torn apart and his cells were being crushed..

This is the Devil Dragon Body Refinement. It's like self-torture..

And the greater the pain, the greater the fruits of practice..

Of course, if one did not have strong willpower and endurance, just the first layer alone would be enough to kill a person, especially when Chu Xuan absorbed demonic Qi..

The more demonic Qi there was, the more likely it was to devour one's mind and cause one to lose their rationality and fall into the demonic path. Therefore, apart from willpower, the most important thing to cultivate the demonic dragon body was a powerful dragon soul..

Only a dragon soul strong enough could resist the corrosion of the mind by demonic Qi..

Time also continued to flow as Chu Xuan's body was crazily refined..

In the blink of an eye, sunset, night falls.

At this moment, half a day had passed since Chu Xuan killed the evil spirit and discovered Black Egg. The night sky of Broken Sword City was pitch-black. Occasionally, only a few night birds could be seen flying past the night sky and emitting eerie chirps..

" Speaking of which, Broken Sword City had a glorious history. This place was not called Broken Sword City but Sky Sword City. Sky Sword City Lord was a powerful existence that surpassed the Airborne Realm. Unfortunately, due to his forced breakthrough and Qi deviation, he went crazy and massacred the city, causing the perfectly good Sky Sword City to turn into the ruins of Broken Sword City today..

”

In order to calm everyone down, Lu Yuan was telling a story to a group of servant disciples..

But as soon as I said that,.

Wu wu wu…strange footsteps could be heard from the ruins around Broken Sword City. The footsteps swayed left and right, as if dragging a heavy body..

"Oh my god!"

Suddenly, one of the outermost servant disciples screamed in horror..

He turned around in horror and found a rotten body stretching out its hand and patting his shoulder. The servant disciple was so scared to death on the spot.

Get out of here..

However, just as he retreated, the other servant disciples shouted in horror," So many, so many zombies!"

The courtyard that everyone was guarding was densely packed. Suddenly, a wave of decaying corpses appeared and frantically tried to rush into the courtyard..

Fortunately, Lu Yuan was already prepared. He directly blasted all these zombies to death with a palm strike from afar, forming a terrifying skeleton path. At the end of the skeleton path stood an old man with a gloomy face who looked like a dried corpse. He stared coldly at Lu Yuan." Lu Yuan, the junior who killed my evil spirit is there. Hand it over and I will leave your corpses intact!"
