Yuan Ming was immersed in the chaotic sounds, but felt an indescribable alienation.
He longs to be free from this complicated whirlpool of fate and does not want to get stuck in it.
As soon as this thought arose, the power of the moonlight that originally enveloped him began to recede like a tide, slowly shrinking, and finally converged towards the center of his eyebrows.
Yuan Ming's heart was trembling, and he suddenly felt a secret and mysterious force tightly wrapping himself.
He immediately calmed down and felt the gathering power with all his heart. For a moment, his state of mind seemed to have entered an ethereal state, and all the external disturbances disappeared.
This strange change in the sky above Baidi City attracted everyone's attention.
"It seems that the master is about to advance to the level of fate witch." In the backyard of the city lord's mansion, Huazhi looked at the sky and said with determination.
"I also felt the powerful power of the soul." Lei Yu also echoed excitedly.
In the main hall where the City Lord's Mansion handles government affairs, Wang Fulong was discussing matters with several monks from the City Lord's Mansion. At this moment, they all stopped what they were doing and walked out of the hall one after another to the center of the courtyard.
Everyone looked up at the silver moon high in the sky, and everyone's face was filled with surprise.
"Lord City Lord, he has broken through in just twenty years. The City Lord has broken through to the realm of Life Witch. Now look at the other City Lords and the sects that have been coveting our Baidi City. Who dares to make trouble?
?" A middle-aged monk wearing a white Confucian robe shouted with joy on his face.
The rest of the people also nodded in agreement.
Wang Fulong and He Xiuwen looked at each other. They both had mixed feelings in their hearts, but they both chose to remain silent.
Over the years, their hatred and fear of Yuan Ming have faded away. Instead, they have begun to recognize him from the bottom of their hearts, become obedient, and even somewhat respectful.
Especially Wang Fulong, he threw away the shackles of the Sunset Sect and the constraints of the Tianpeng Chamber of Commerce. Yuan Ming gave him great freedom and support, allowing him to devote himself wholeheartedly to the management of Baidi City.
In his heart, he was actually full of gratitude to Yuan Ming.
Without these heavy burdens, although he was busy with the affairs of Baidi City and his cultivation time was greatly reduced, his cultivation level actually improved.
He Xiuwen received the resources promised by Yuan Ming, so he was very careful in managing Baidi City.
In the north of Baidi City, in a quiet house, a blond man was staring at the sky above the city with a solemn expression. He was holding a communication disk tightly in his hand and was communicating with others: "Lord of the City, Bai Di."
The Lord of the Imperial City has broken through to the realm of fate witches..."
There was silence on the other side of the summons for a long time, and then he slowly replied: "That's all, take our people and come back."
The blond man heard the words and responded in a deep voice: "Yes."
There was a trace of unwillingness in his eyes, but more of it was helplessness and relief.
…
Only a few miles away from here, in a quaint inn, there is a deep secret room.
A woman in green robes stood quietly beside the communication circle, with a solemn expression between her brows, and was softly telling the clear light figure in the circle about the latest developments in Baidi City.
The clear light in the magic circle flickered, reflecting a majestic and profound face, which was the city lord of Yinshan City.
As he listened to his subordinate's report, a complex emotion flashed through his eyes, and then he fell into a long silence.
When the green-robed woman saw this, she felt uneasy and asked cautiously: "City Lord, we have been lurking here for a long time, and my identity may have been exposed. Now that the Lord of Baidi City has broken through the realm and has greatly increased his strength, should we evacuate temporarily?"
Avoid its edge?"
The Lord of Yinshan City was silent for a moment, and finally said: "There is no need to evacuate. I will set off immediately and go to Baidi City in person to express my congratulations to them."
At the same time, outside the teleportation hall of Baidi City, there were crowds of people, and two long queues stretched into the distance.
These monks all applied for teleportation to leave Baidi City, and their faces were full of anxiety and uneasiness.
At the entrance of the main hall, several monks wearing black robes embroidered with gold patterns stood. They were disciples of the Jinji Sect and were responsible for stationing here.
The leader is an old man. Although he is old, he is energetic and has a pair of bright tiger eyes.
Sometimes he glanced at the teleportation hall, sometimes he looked up at the sky, and the vision there was still eye-catching.
A plump woman walked up to the old man and asked worriedly: "Elder Hong, do we really want to stay here? The person in charge of the City Lord's Mansion named He has been secretly investigating us for fear of our details.
We have been clearly touched by them. If they have murderous intentions, we may not be able to resist them."
"Why are we leaving? If they really knew our details, how could they take action easily? I'm afraid they are now having a headache on how to deal with the forces behind us." Elder Hong sneered and asked.
When everyone heard this, they felt relieved and had relaxed smiles on their faces.
"Okay, let's go back. Report the situation here to Master Queyue truthfully and let him decide the next step." Elder Hong withdrew his gaze and said calmly.
After saying that, he turned around and left with everyone.
…
Deep in the city lord's palace, the secret room is quiet, as if it is cut off from the disturbance of the outside world.
Yuan Ming sat upright, the power of the moonlight between his eyebrows gradually condensed, and finally turned into a thumb-sized beam of light, quietly blended into his eyebrows, and then disappeared without a trace.
As the light beam disappeared, a shallow silver moon mark slowly appeared between Yuan Ming's eyebrows, emitting a faint silver light.
He stood up slowly, and as soon as the silver moon mark flashed, his figure became illusory, as if he had blended into the surrounding nothingness.
Taking one step forward, Yuan Ming's figure turned into a hazy stream of light and quietly arrived at the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion.
At this time, in the backyard, Huazhi was holding an exquisite pastry in her hand. While tasting the delicious food, she looked up at the sky. The gradually dissipating vision seemed to have a different charm in her eyes.
Lei Yu was sitting on a stone bench nearby, his head resting on his hands, his eyes empty, as if he was thinking about some difficult problems.
Although Yuan Ming was already standing beside the two of them, neither Huazhi nor Leiyu could notice his presence.
"The concealment effect of the Yin-Moon Body is indeed surprisingly good. These two fifth-level monsters didn't even notice it at all." Yuan Ming thought secretly in his heart.
After advancing to the level of Fate Witch, Yuan Ming not only awakened the body of Yin and Moon, this physique made him seem to be covered with an invisible barrier when he was activated, which could obscure the secrets of heaven to a certain extent and make people instinctively detect the unknown.
to his existence.
Yuan Ming did not show up to talk to the two of them, but continued walking forward and soon arrived at the Government Affairs Hall.
In the main hall at this moment, everyone who had just held a meeting had gathered together and were discussing the matter of eliminating the spies left in Baidi City from various sects and sects as well as from the remaining eighteen cities.
He Xiuwen held a piece of paper recording the spies' situation and was showing them one by one for everyone to check.
Everyone looked at it with shocked expressions on their faces, even Wang Fulong was no exception. He frowned and said in a deep voice: "How can there be so many?"
"Each sect does not understand the strength of our city lord, and mistakenly believe that he was placed to manage Baidi City only because of his connections. Therefore, they all have the intention of secretly supporting puppets and controlling Baidi City. And the other eighteen
The city lords of the Tianhong Formation City used to follow Jin Mu's lead. But after Jin Mu's death, they all became disloyal and wanted to take their place and become the first city lords of these nineteen cities and take over the entire city.
Ten Thousand Monsters Mountain Range." He Xiuwen explained.
"If we want to clear them all, I'm afraid we will face a lot of resistance." A middle-aged round-faced monk heard this and said in a deep voice.
"What are you afraid of? They just don't know the true strength of our city lord. Once they see it, they will naturally not dare to think anything wrong." Zheng Heng sneered.
"We still need to do a good job of investigation, investigate clearly all the forces involved behind these secrets, and be prepared to deal with them separately." Wang Fulong said, appearing more cautious.
While they were having a heated discussion, unknown to them, Yuan Ming was standing quietly aside.
His figure is still illusory and ethereal, and no one can detect it.
As soon as he thought, light suddenly condensed in the sea of consciousness, and a pale golden eyeball slowly emerged, finally appearing between his eyebrows.
This pale golden eyeball is the same as the body under the body of Yin Yue, showing an ethereal state and cannot be sensed by others.
This is exactly the other probing magical power that Yuan Ming awakened after being promoted to a life witch, in addition to the body of the moon and the moon - the eye of reincarnation.
I saw the Eye of Reincarnation between Yuan Ming's eyebrows spinning, and a golden light shined through it, quietly covering Wang Fulong's body.
The next moment, Yuan Ming's sea of consciousness seemed to open a door to the depths of time, and pictures flowed like a revolving lantern.
These scenes seemed like Wang Fulong's past nearly a hundred years had been compressed into a blink of an eye and reappeared in Yuan Ming's sea of consciousness.
In the picture, Wang Fulong's various deeds from a young boy to a calm middle-aged man are displayed one by one in Yuan Ming's sea of consciousness, just like going back in time.
Those pictures, the closer they are to the present, the more coherent and clear they become, as if Yuan Ming has personally experienced Wang Fulong's various experiences, and those people and things all seem so real.
The closer to the past, the more fragmented and isolated the pictures become, but every picture is an extremely important moment in Wang Fulong's life.
Yuan Ming withdrew his gaze from the sea of consciousness and turned to a simple-looking copper incense burner on the table.
The incense burner looks ordinary, it just makes people feel calm when burning incense, there is nothing special about it.
When Yuan Ming's Eye of Reincarnation projected a golden light onto it, intermittent images gradually emerged in his sea of consciousness.
Yuan Ming browsed these pictures carefully and found that what they showed was the circulation process of this copper incense burner since it was successfully refined.
From its first owner, to every change of hands it has experienced, to everyone who has come into contact with it, everything is shown in this picture.
Just when Yuan Ming was about to continue to look deeper, he suddenly felt something in his heart, and with a movement of his body, he returned to the secret room.
As soon as he stood still, the mysterious and mysterious power of the avenue came again, shrouding his body like warm sunshine.
