Sure enough, when Xiao Zhi teleported through space, crossed a thousand miles distance, and came to the bloody vortex, the figure of the man in black armor had already slipped into the bloody vortex and disappeared.
"Bastard!" Xiao Zhi looked at the bloody whirlpool in front of him and couldn't help but cursed, his face looking very ugly.
"This grandson's courage is too cowardly. I'm not the True Heavenly Emperor. Why are I running so fast?"
To be honest, this black-armored man ran away after a disagreement, which was really beyond Xiao Zhi's expectation.
He has seen a lot of powerful people outside the world. This is the first time he has seen a man in black armor who ran away before even saying a few words.
The next moment, the air fluctuated slightly, and Luo Yiyi, dressed in black armor, appeared beside Xiao Zhi out of thin air.
"Where's the big fish?" Luo Yiyi turned his head and glanced around, asking in a cold voice.
Xiao Zhi smiled bitterly and said, "Let him run away."
"Run away? How did you run away?"
Xiao Zhi smiled bitterly and said: "I think he was scared away by me. He recognized me as soon as I appeared, and then he fled back through the bloody whirlpool without hesitation."
"This bastard ran away so fast, I didn't even have time to stop him."
Luo Yiyi was silent for a moment and said: "It should be Zhi Shen that you performed really well in the previous battle of the strongest. As for your performance in the battle of the strongest, those high-ranking gods outside the world are hearing about it.
After knowing the news about you, how can I dare to fight you? If I were him, I would choose to escape as soon as possible. This is a wise move."
Xiao Zhi continued to smile bitterly.
Luo Yiyi was silent for a while and then said: "If there is another big fish in the future, let me do it. You can just act according to the situation behind."
"Okay." Xiao Zhi nodded helplessly and agreed to Luo Yiyi's proposal.
Soon after, the battles in various areas were declared over.
Everyone gathered together again.
"Brother, you should be able to see my performance on the battlefield, right? What do you think?" Yang Xi looked at Xiao Zhi expectantly.
"Not bad, keep up the good work." Xiao Zhi praised Yang Xi with a smile.
"Okay." Yang Xi said with a smile.
Xiao Zhi glanced at everyone present and said: "This time is the same as last time. I have to seize the time to practice. I will leave the next guard task to you. Are there any problems?"
"No problem!" Zhao Yan patted his chest and was the first to say: "Brother Zhi, just go and practice with peace of mind. As long as we are here, there will be no trouble in this mission!"
Others also echoed their words.
Xiao Zhi nodded with satisfaction, looked at Yang Xi, and said, "Yang Xi, you should also practice."
"Okay." Yang Xi nodded obediently.
Soon after, Xiao Zhi took out his floating airship, sat cross-legged on the floating airship, and prepared to continue practicing his [Tianji Holy Body].
The main reason why he took out the floating airship when practicing was that he was used to sitting on his floating airship to practice the Holy Body.
Yang Xi chose a relatively secluded place in the mission execution area as his temporary training place.
Soon, at the place chosen by Sunset, trees appeared one after another, forming a small forest, adding a little vitality to this desolate land.
Xiao Zhi withdrew his gaze from the small forest. With a thought, he called up the management interface of the All Beings System and looked at the various data in the management interface.
'Well, the number of guard missions being executed is still four.'
Xiao Zhi waved away the translucent light curtain in front of him, his heart sank, his body glowed with a rich jade light, and he began to practice his [Tianji Holy Body].
A day later, Xiao Zhi, who was practicing, turned his head as if he had something to say and looked towards the dim sky outside the place where the mission was carried out.
He saw a figure floating quietly in the dark sky.
This figure is clearly the Sky Emperor.
"Emperor Kongtian!" Xiao Zhi stood up quickly, bowed slightly, and saluted Emperor Kongtian from afar.
Emperor Kongtian nodded slightly, and his voice rang in Xiao Zhi's ears out of thin air: "Xiao Zhi, how is your [Tianji Holy Body] cultivation going?"
Xiao Zhi replied: "It is still the Dacheng level. It will take some time to break through to the Perfect level."
"How much longer will it take?" Emperor Kongtian asked.
A wry smile appeared on Xiao Zhi's face, and he said: "I don't know about this. The cultivation of this [Tianji Holy Body] is a bit difficult. If I want to cultivate this [Tianji Holy Body] to the perfect level, it may take several years."
, it may also take more than ten years.”
After listening to Xiao Zhi's answer, Emperor Kong Tian also showed a wry smile: "The cultivation of the Holy Body is really difficult. My cultivation of the Holy Body is still at the Tianyu stage. I'm not as good as you, right?
I'm a little anxious."
After giving a wry smile, Emperor Kongtian glanced at Xiao Zhi and said, "You should practice well, and I won't disturb your practice."
Xiao Zhi stared at Emperor Kongtian and asked: "Emperor Kongtian, is there something bad about the current situation?"
"Yes." Emperor Kongtian was silent for a moment, nodded, and said: "In recent times, those outsiders have invaded our heaven, and the invasions have become more and more frequent. I guess this may be because they are going to carry out a large-scale
Signs before an invasion."
"It's just as I thought." Xiao Zhi said, a look of worry appeared on his face.
"Okay, you can practice and practice well. It's useless to think about these things too much. If one day, those people from outside the world really invade in large numbers, all we can do is to block them with soldiers and cover them with water and soil."
"Yeah." Xiao Zhi nodded slightly.
After a few brief exchanges with Xiao Zhi, Emperor Kong Tian left. His figure quickly disappeared into the dim sky and disappeared within Xiao Zhi's sensing range.
Watching Emperor Kongtian leave, Xiao Zhi couldn't help but feel a little heavy.
A word emerged in his mind - precarious.
Today, the world he lives in can really be described as 'precarious'.
‘Practice, Emperor Kong Tian is right, there is no use thinking about it now.’ Xiao Zhi shook his head, abandoned the distracting thoughts in his mind, and slowly sat back on the floating craft.
time flies.
A few days passed in a flash.
Xiao Zhi sat on the floating flying boat and rubbed his slightly sore temples with his hands.
‘Let’s take a little rest,’ Xiao Zhi thought to himself.
After he stopped practicing, the jade color on Xiao Zhi's body quickly faded.
This time, he simply lay down on the floating airship, closed his eyes, completely let go of his mind, and let the floating airship carry him forward slowly.
It wasn't until several hours later that Xiao Zhi opened his eyes again and sat up.
After resting for a while, Xiao Zhi was not in a hurry to practice. Instead, with a thought, he called up the management interface of the sentient being system and glanced at the various data in the management interface.
At this glance, Xiao Zhi's brows furrowed deeply.
Because he saw that in the management interface, the number of guard tasks being executed had changed from four to five!
'The situation is not good...' Xiao Zhi had a worried expression on his face.
Time flew by and two more days passed.
On this day, Xiao Zhi was practicing, and the ethereal voice belonging to the sentient system suddenly rang in his ears: "Alarm! Alarm! The heaven is undergoing a large-scale invasion, and the joint guard mission is about to begin!"
Xiao Zhi's face suddenly turned ugly.
"What was supposed to come has finally come." Xiao Zhi exhaled softly and slowly stood up from the floating flying boat.
At this moment, not only Xiao Zhi heard the beep from the All Beings System, but Luo Yiyi, Lu Zhong, Zhao Yan and others also heard the beep from the All Beings System.
At this moment, everyone's expressions became solemn.
At this time, Xiao Zhi's voice rang in everyone's ears: "Did everyone hear it?"
"I heard it." Everyone nodded solemnly.
Lu Zhong said at this time: "Brother Zhi, let's get together and discuss countermeasures."
"Okay, let's get together first." The voice belonging to Xiao Zhi said.
Soon, spatial ripples visible to the naked eye appeared on everyone's bodies. Then, everyone's figures turned into nothing and disappeared. When they reappeared, everyone had gathered together.
"Brother Executive."
"Zhi Shen."
"Great Emperor." Everyone looked at Xiao Zhi.
When Xiao Zhi was about to speak, the ethereal voice belonging to the sentient system rang again: "The joint guard mission has begun. All players above the god level in the twelve regional overlord worlds must participate in this joint guard mission.
"
"The transmission is about to begin, countdown to 3..."
Hu Yang said at this time: "We are currently on a guard mission. At this time, a joint guard mission suddenly breaks out. The sentient system may not necessarily send us there. Maybe we have to wait until this guard mission is over.
Only then will it be sent over."
Lu Zhong nodded when he heard this and said: "Yes, I remember this was the case once. At that time we happened to be performing a guard mission, and then a joint guard mission suddenly broke out. At that time, the system teleported us.
If we fail, we are told to continue to carry out the guard mission. After we have completed the guard mission we are responsible for, we can then go to the place where the joint guard mission is carried out."
"I also have an impression of this." Zhao Yan said.
Xiao Zhi said in a deep voice: "Whether it will be like this this time, we will know later."
After hearing this, everyone nodded and began to wait silently.
The 3-second countdown passed quickly, and at this time, no spatial ripples appeared on anyone's body.
The ethereal voice belonging to the sentient system rang again: "Transmission interrupted..."
"It has been detected that your world is performing a heavenly guard mission. Your world needs to continue to be stationed here and be responsible for monitoring this area. After this area returns to stability, it will be transferred to the joint guard mission execution place."
"Sure enough, it's still like this." Lu Zhong exhaled a long breath.
Not only Lu Zhong, but Zhu Changwu and Mai Ti also showed expressions of relief.
The joint guard mission is a fight between gods. In the joint guard mission, the life safety of high-level god-level players is not guaranteed. If you are not careful, you may be killed, let alone novice players like them.
.
Beginner players like them, who are at the bottom of the food chain in the joint guard mission, have a frightening life.
As first-time players, they have a subconscious fear and rejection of joint guard missions.
Among the first gods, Zhao Yan was a different one. What appeared on his face was an expression of disappointment that could not be concealed.
Among the gods, there was no expression on Luo Yiyi's face, Hu Yang pursed his lips and said nothing, and Gorea was looking at Xiao Zhi.
Yang Xi was also looking at Xiao Zhi.
Xiao Zhi had a calm face, as if he was thinking about something.
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Zhi sighed softly.
Yang Xi looked at Xiao Zhi and said, "Brother, why are you sighing?"
Xiao Zhi glanced at Yang Xi and said: "In my opinion, every joint guard mission that our great realm has experienced so far can be regarded as a life and death situation. If we are not careful, our great realm will be destroyed."
The realm may be doomed. In this case, I cannot participate in this joint guard mission. This way we are safe, but this is not a good thing for our great realm.
"
As soon as Xiao Zhi said this, everyone fell silent.
After being silent for a while, Maiti couldn't help but praise: "The emperor's pattern and righteousness are beyond even my flattery."
Everyone couldn't help but nod when they heard this.
Xiao Zhi shook his head when he heard this and said: "I don't have any plans. I just want to live a good life. What I want is that once our world is over, I, you, and everyone will
They all have to die, so our great realm cannot be destroyed."
Luo Yiyi said at this time: "Zhi Shen, don't you have a token from Emperor Kongtian? You can use this token to contact Emperor Kongtian and ask Emperor Kongtian to pass us over. Emperor Kongtian has higher system management authority than you. He
It should be possible to do that.”
"That's exactly what I meant." Xiao Zhi nodded.
Then he saw that with a thought in his mind, the white jade ring that represented the token of Emperor Kongtian appeared out of thin air in front of him.
When Xiao Zhi was about to use this token to try to contact Kong Tian Emperor, the ethereal voice belonging to the sentient system rang in his ears at this moment: "Reminder! Kong invites you to participate in this joint guard mission.
You can choose to agree or refuse. If you choose to agree, you will immediately be transported by the sentient system to the joint guard mission execution place. All the rewards you received in this regular guard mission will be
Empty.”
When the system prompt sounded, a translucent option box appeared in front of Xiao Zhi out of thin air.
