Chapter 390 Star Reaching Conference and Return to Star City
Putting away Feijian and Huang Tiansuo, Mo Juren suddenly sighed.
Hunting a level 7 peak monster would naturally be a huge profit. Unfortunately, it was just a water attribute monster. For him who already had a level 7 Black Crystal Centipede, its value was greatly reduced.
It can only be equivalent to a sum of spiritual stones.
Fortunately, he is not in a hurry. There is no urgent need at the moment anyway, so just take your time.
I let go of my consciousness and explored the area, but didn't notice anything unusual. I breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time, I couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
White light flashed all over his body and quickly returned to the flying boat:
"This is not a place to stay for a long time. Let's leave now."
……
The name of Broken Soul Island comes from Broken Soul Abyss, which itself is not much different from many other overseas islands in Star Palace.
The area of the island is not small, and there is a city on it. And because of the existence of the Soul-Dead Sea Abyss and the rich resources of monsters, the business here is very prosperous.
Correspondingly, in order to resist the attack of the monsters of the abyss, there is also a strong person stationed here. According to rumors, he is a Nascent Soul stage elder from the Star Palace.
At this time, four figures were walking slowly on the main street of the city. It was the three girls, Mo Juren and Wang Ying, who had arrived here after three months of traveling.
Looking at the bustling crowd around them, several people felt a sense of intimacy in their hearts.
"The teleportation array is set up in the southeastern area of the city. Brother Mo, do you plan to go there immediately?" He was about to return to Tianxing City, which also meant that it was time for the two parties to part ways. Wang Ying suddenly felt a trace of reluctance in her heart.
"It's not too late to go shopping in various shops." Seeing the prosperous business here, Mo Juren naturally didn't intend to let it go. What if he could find some needed rare materials? It wouldn't take long anyway. "That's fine. It just so happens that my little sister doesn't have anything important to do, so she can accompany Brother Mo." Wang Ying felt inexplicably happy and replied.
Fan Jingmei and Zhuo Ruting looked at each other in shock after hearing this. They have both disappeared for more than a year. The Miaoyin Sect still doesn't know what is going on, but the owner of the sect doesn't care about it. Instead, he goes shopping with others?<
/p>
The word love is really terrible, it can make people lose all reason, but the two of them can only watch and can't do anything.
Fortunately, Senior Mo is indeed excellent, and the sect leader made the right choice in choosing him. It would have been really bad if it had been Cheng Yang. Fortunately, such a thing did not happen, otherwise he would have really fallen into a pit of fire.<
/p>
The only troublesome thing is that the only one who seems to be interested is the head of his own family, but Senior Mo always looks indifferent and polite. I really can't guess what he is thinking?
There are many large and small shops in the city, and it is naturally impossible for Mo Juren to visit them all. It is enough to choose the largest ones, especially the branches affiliated to the four major business alliances. If there are any rare materials, there is a 90% chance
All will come from it.
It was neither good nor bad luck. After searching, I only found a few types, which was better than nothing. Regarding this result, Mo Juren was not depressed. It was just incidental anyway, and it was not a loss to find one. p>
The teleportation array leading to the Star Sea is located at the edge of the southeastern part of the city. After the four of them walked around, they came straight here. What they saw was a tall stone house, which was completely dark and looked ordinary without any sense of beauty. p>
However, the empty area in front of the stone house is now full of people, all of them are cultivators waiting to be teleported.
Mo Juren was a little surprised. Do so many people want to return to the Star Palace? They still have to queue up?
But at this moment, Wang Ying on the side suddenly came closer and exhaled: "If I remember correctly, the 'Star Reaching Conference' held by the Star Palace every hundred years is about to begin. These people should be anxious.
I’m going back to participate.”
"So that's it!" Hearing this, Mo Juren suddenly understood. He naturally knew that the 'Star Reaching Conference' was a grand gathering for the Xinghai human race monks. It involved too many interests and would naturally attract the attention of countless people.
.
As the nominal official power, in order to control the inland sea, the Star Palace took three islands in each of the eight peripheral areas and the four central areas, and established direct-administered sub-islands.
】
These thirty-six islands form a defensive force surrounding Tianxing City in all directions. They are also spread throughout the entire inland sea, covering all areas.
Among them, the managers of the twelve inner star islands are directly appointed by the Star Palace, but the twenty-four outer star islands are an exception. Every hundred years, there will be a public challenge and selection in Tianxing City, and the winner will automatically become one of the island owners.
Take control of one party.
This is the largest grand event in Xinghai. The Wanfu Festival held on Fengle Island before is far from comparable. At this time, almost all high-level monks will gather here, and some will go directly to the position of city lord to participate in the challenge.
some are just here to broaden their horizons, communicate with colleagues, and exchange for some needed resources, etc.
In short, before and after the Star Reaching Conference is held, the entire Tianxing City will be overcrowded and extremely lively.
"Brother Mo, do you have any ideas? With your strength, if you participate, it is almost easy to win the title of island owner." Wang Ying's heart moved and she reminded again.
"Forget it, Mo likes to be quiet and less restrained." Mo Juren gave up without even thinking about it. Being the owner of the island, in addition to a lot of trivial matters, he also had to fight with various forces. I really can't see any
He would only fight for the benefits unless he was crazy.
Wang Ying just waited for nothing to happen and asked casually without any other ideas. Since the other party made it clear, she stopped asking and started chatting about other things.
There were quite a few monks queuing up, and it wasn't until nearly a quarter of an hour had passed that it was their turn. As a white light flashed by, the teleportation array had become empty.
……
"Brother Mo, this is..."
After walking out of the Starry Sky Palace, it was time for the two parties to part ways, but at this moment, a storage bag suddenly appeared in Mo Juren's hand, and he handed it directly to Wang Ying. The latter was stunned and didn't understand what it meant? p>
"I haven't gained much from this exploration of the ruins. Except for what Mo needs, I'll give you these."
"No, I can't accept it." When Wang Ying heard that this was the case, she immediately refused without thinking, and even pushed the other person's palm back.
That's right, I did invite the other party to help me at the beginning, and I also promised to give the other party a certain amount of reward afterwards.
But that was just the initial idea, without considering the real situation. Until I met the monks from Kamikaze Island and the Corpse Jade Sect, and the other party showed great strength, the situation was completely different by then.
This is also true. Whether Cheng Songting or Qin Yue, they all agreed to let the Miaoyin Sect exist as a third party and share the harvest because of Mo Juren's face.
Although what I got later did not meet expectations due to various accidents, this fact cannot be ignored.
Without Mo Juren, Miaoyinmen can only participate in the exploration as a vassal of Kamikaze Island. Let’s not mention what to gain for the moment. Whether they can save their lives or even escape from the ruins are two questions.
That secret realm is not a kind place. The half-demon clan, including the Master of Paradise Palace, are not benevolent people. In addition, after falling into it, their strength is banned and they are completely reduced to mortals. How can they have the slightest qualification to resist?
The reason why she did not encounter any danger, and even lived a relaxed and leisurely life, was entirely because of the person in front of her. Without the presence of the other party, there is no telling what the outcome would be, and even if she could escape in the end, she would not be able to escape intact. p>
As someone who has experienced it herself, she knows this very well.
Therefore, she had already forgotten what she had gained, and had no extravagant expectations. On the contrary, she felt that she owed the other party too much from this experience, and it was too late to repay it.
It's not just her, Kamikaze Island and Corpse Jade Sect are no exception. Whether they admit it or not, they are able to leave the ruins smoothly, more or less, they owe Mo Juren a favor.
"Just take it, I won't need it anyway. Besides, this exploration started because of you, and I can't let you go in vain." Mo Juren pushed out his palm again.
What precious thing can only be regarded as a spiritual stone to him, and it really means nothing. Without waiting for the other party to refuse again, he directly forced it into the other party's hands, and then said without any doubt,
"If you don't accept me, you won't treat Mo as a friend, and it will be even harder to interact with him in the future."
Upon hearing this, Wang Ying's face suddenly changed slightly, and a hint of complexity flashed in her eyes.
Naturally, she could tell that the other party was just joking, and the purpose was to get her to accept the things. However, this friendship was extremely precious to her, and she could not tolerate any risks.
She didn't dare to refute, for fear that if she refused again, the other party would really ignore her. What made her even more disappointed was that in the other party's heart, was she just a pure friend?
For a moment, she was confused and even worried about gains and losses.
Mo Juren could not guess the change of mind of the other party, so he left a special summons token, informed the other party of his residence, and then left without hesitation.
Looking at the other person's figure gradually moving away, Wang Ying stood there in a daze, speechless for a long time. It wasn't until she felt her sleeves being pulled that she came back to reality.
"Master, it's time for us to leave." As a woman, Fan Jingmei vaguely guessed something, but she could only sigh silently, not knowing how to persuade her.
"Let's go." Wang Ying sighed softly, and finally remembered that she still had business to do. After disappearing for more than a year, she must immediately convey the news of her return to the door to avoid any trouble. This must be guarded against, especially
Those two elders always made her worry. Fortunately, the Miaoyin Sect had its own stronghold in Tianxing City, so it didn't take much time.
As for the contents of the storage bag, she put it away without even looking at it, then summoned a flying sword and flew straight to the bottom of the Holy Mountain with the two women beside her.
……
A moment later, Mo Juren had flown down to the forty-fifth floor of the Holy Mountain. When he saw his cave again, he couldn't help but feel a sense of trance.
Thirty-one years have passed since the last time I left, but nothing has changed outside the cave. Just as I was about to open the formation and enter, a familiar voice suddenly came to my ears.
"Brother Mo! You are finally back!"
"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Wang. I haven't seen him for many years. He is even more elegant than before!" He turned around to look at the person coming. He was an old man with gray hair and a rosy complexion. His cultivation was in the middle stage of pill formation.
This person was his neighbor, named Wang Yuanshan, a casual cultivator. The two parties had communicated several times in the past and were considered acquaintances. The moment he saw each other, a smile suddenly appeared on Mo Juren's face. p>
"Wang is just old and decrepit, how can he still have any grace? Brother Mo, on the other hand, has made a breakthrough again after not seeing him for decades. It is really gratifying." While Wang Yuanshan congratulated, there was a turmoil in his heart. I saw it before.
It's not easy to show up to the person in front of you. I didn't expect it to be underestimated. It's only been a few decades since I entered the pill formation, and I actually broke through again. This speed is really incredible.
Think about yourself again, you are over 300 years old, and you are still just wandering around in the middle stage of pill formation. In comparison, you are really nothing. No wonder that person paid so much attention to the other person, and even asked yourself to always pay attention to the news of his return.
.
"It's just a fluke." Mo Juren didn't explain much and suddenly asked again,
"From what Fellow Daoist Wang said just now, it seems that you have something to do with Mr. Mo?"
"It's not Wang, but..." Wang Yuanshan paused, but suddenly sighed softly,
"It's not a big deal, so I won't hide it. A certain nobleman from the Star Palace asked me to keep an eye on Brother Mo's information and notify him as soon as he returns."
"Pay attention to me!" Mo Juren couldn't help but be a little surprised. Besides Ling Yuling, who else in the Star Palace would pay attention to him? Sure enough, the other party's next sentence confirmed his guess.
"It's Manager Ling from the Law Enforcement Palace. She has specifically asked that there is no need to hide this matter. If Brother Mo asks, just tell him directly."
"So it's her!" Mo Juren nodded. The girl paid attention to him more than once. Of course she wasn't following him. She was just staring at her residence to see when she would return. He didn't bother to take it to heart. However, the last time they met,
The other party was only the captain, but now he has become the manager. This promotion is really fast.
"When did Fellow Daoist Wang and Fellow Daoist Ling...Ling meet?"
"Thanks to Brother Mo, because of Manager Ling's recommendation, Wang has now joined the Star Palace." Speaking of this, Wang Yuanshan's face suddenly lit up with joy, and his eyes showed sincere gratitude. If not
The other party, how could he have anything to do with a powerful person with wide connections like Manager Ling, let alone get the other party’s recommendation?
"So that's the case, then congratulations to fellow Taoist Wang." Mo Juren looked slightly surprised and immediately congratulated him. The other party was a casual cultivator, so being able to join the Star Palace was naturally a dream. As for the fact that he played a certain role in it,
It's just a superficial reason. If the other party is not in the middle stage of pill formation, it is impossible for Ling Yuling to have the idea of recommending him.
The two chatted again for a while before parting. Mo Juren directly opened the formation and entered the cave. Wang Yuanshan, after rejecting the other party's invitation, took out a communication talisman and immediately began to activate.
In the hall of the Law Enforcement Hall, a young man with an unusually handsome appearance in a white robe was sitting in front of a desk. Not far away, a stern-faced middle-aged man stood respectfully and kept reporting in a low voice.
But at this moment, he seemed to suddenly sense something. The handsome young man's expression moved slightly, and then he raised his hand to interrupt him.
"I already know everything. You can go down first. Now is the critical period of the Star Reaching Conference. You should all be alert and report to me if there is any abnormality."
"My subordinates resign!"
After the middle-aged man left respectfully, the handsome young man waved his arm lightly, and a ray of fire shot out from the window, and his white palm took it into his palm with a single move.
"It's him!" As a piece of information was transmitted into the sea of consciousness, the originally calm expression suddenly changed, and there was even more surprise that could not be concealed in his eyes.
Subconsciously, he stood up and planned to leave, but suddenly he thought of something. Then he sat back down and murmured: "No rush, let uncle rest for a night. It won't be too late to go there tomorrow."
