Shen Changqing looked indifferent, and the greeting message in his hand was very short. It was nothing more than some compliments and a statement that Bei Jue, the deputy lord of the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land, wanted to meet him.
In front of him, Duan Jing whispered: "The people coming to the ancient holy land are not good, ancestors should be careful!"
"As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake. No matter how strong the ancient holy land is, this is also Honglingfang City, so naturally it cannot tolerate him.
Since he wants to meet, there is no harm in meeting him.
Go ahead and tell the Deputy Holy Lord that I will wait here for him to come to your door at this time tomorrow!"
Shen Changqing squeezed the greeting card with no force, and the greeting card was quietly destroyed, turning into ashes and disappearing.
Ancient wilderness holy land!
Although the words in the greeting card were polite, Shen Changqing could also understand that the person who came was not kind.
but.
As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake.
So what if the person who comes here is evil.
If Shen Changqing is really an ordinary divine king, he really doesn't have much confidence in the ancient wilderness holy land.
But Shen Changqing is not an ordinary divine king, so he does not put the ancient holy land in his eyes.
…
The next day.
Bei Jue came to visit.
The other party came with a group of disciples from the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land, and Shen Changqing also sent people out to greet them.
In the lobby.
Bei Jue looked at the middle-aged man in white in front of him, clasped his fists and said, "I, Bei Jue, have met the Hongling Divine Lord!"
"I've met the Northern Lord God!"
Shen Changqing also responded politely.
Several people sat down.
Bei Jue looked at the person in front of him and asked tentatively: "May I ask where Hongling Shenjun practiced in the past? I have been living in the ancient wasteland for many years and have never heard of the reputation of fellow Taoists."
Originally, Beibei didn't pay much attention to Shen Changqing, but when he really saw Shen Changqing, he found that the other party was not as simple as he thought.
The aura of the person in front of me is vague and elusive.
You must know that Bei Jue is already a powerful person at the lower level of the Divine Lord. It is unlikely that a Divine Lord would hide his cultivation in front of him.
If Shen Changqing can prevent himself from seeing depth clearly, then there are only two possibilities.
Either the other party's cultivation level is higher than yours, or they have some kind of magical means that has the power to cover up.
Of the two.
Bei Jue prefers the latter.
He doesn't believe it.
A strange god can be stronger than myself.
Shen Changqing shook his head and said with a smile: "I was originally a loose cultivator in the mountains. I was lucky enough to get a chance when I was young, and that's how I got to where I am today step by step.
After traveling around the world, he happened to step into the ancient wilderness, so he temporarily settled in the Hongling Mountains.
In today's era of great catastrophes, it is not easy for us casual cultivators to find a place to settle down."
This sentence.
All the monks in the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land felt the same way.
The catastrophe breaks out.
The ancient holy land has also been affected a lot.
Bei Jue said: "What the Lord God said is absolutely true. Now that the great catastrophe is sweeping across the world, no place in the Eight Wildernesses of Nine Provinces can survive. Even in the ancient wilderness, many wars broke out in the past few years, and countless people died of the God Emperor and God Lord.
The Hongling Divine Monarch is not weak in cultivation. There would be no problem practicing in the Hongling Mountains in the past.
But now that catastrophes are happening frequently, and the dark camp and the netherworld camp are constantly fighting, it is undoubtedly difficult for us monks to protect ourselves.
In my opinion, even if the Hongling Mountains are currently peaceful, I’m afraid it won’t last long!”
To the end.
Bei Jue looked sad, as if he was really thinking about Shen Changqing.
When the latter heard this, he asked calmly: "Did Bei Jue Shenjun get some news by saying this?"
"To be honest with you, I have received news from the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land that the dark camp is now integrating its army and intends to enter the Ancient Wasteland again and capture the nine cities of the Ancient Wasteland.
The last battle in the Nine Cities of the Ancient Wasteland took place hundreds of years ago. Many powerful men fell in that battle, and the impact was widespread.
Now the war is coming back again, and it will definitely be more intense than the last time."
When Shen Changqing heard this, his eyes moved slightly.
The dark camp is back!
This news was quite important to him.
Of course.
He had no idea of standing up to the dark camp.
Now that Shen Changqing has fallen out with the Demon Lord, he has completely separated from either camp. In this case, he doesn't have to think so much and only needs to seek benefits from it.
War breaks out.
For ordinary monks, it is a disaster, but for Shen Changqing, it may not be a disaster.
after all.
War often represents opportunity.
Shen Changqing's current breakthrough requires a large number of Dao Rule fragments. If a strong man dies, he will have the opportunity to break through.
Seeing Shen Changqing's silence, Bei Jue thought that the other party was afraid after hearing the news, so he smiled calmly and continued.
"There are many casual cultivators in the Hongling Mountains. If a war breaks out between the two sides, there may be some impact. It is rumored that the dark camp often forcibly recruits casual cultivators to accompany the army, forcing other monks to participate in the war.
Your Excellency is now quite well-known in the ancient wilderness, and if you are targeted by the dark camp, something will definitely be wrong."
After Bei Jue finished speaking, Shen Changqing gave him a meaningful look.
"Could it be that Lord Beijue Shenjun has a way to crack it?"
"That's natural!"
Bei Jue smiled proudly.
"Our ancient holy land has stood in the ancient wilderness for many years, and it can be considered deeply rooted. In addition, it has always maintained neutrality. Even if a war breaks out, the forces on both sides will give us some face.
As a strong and dignified Divine Lord, your willingness to be a casual cultivator has always failed to achieve your status as a Divine Lord. Therefore, I came here this time to invite the Hongling Divine Lord to join our ancient wilderness holy land."
When the words came to this, Bei Jue also had no idea and directly stated his purpose.
"With your Divine Lord cultivation and your status as a third-level Talisman Dao Grandmaster, if you can join the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land, we will definitely be more powerful. In this way, we will be more confident in resisting the coming catastrophe.
Moreover, the Holy Lord has said it before, if the Hongling Divine Lord is willing to join the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land, he can become the Deputy Holy Lord of the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land, on an equal footing with me!"
Deputy Holy Master of the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land!
Shen Changqing's expression moved slightly.
He was not surprised when Bei Jue came to recruit him, but Shen Changqing was a little surprised that the other party could take the position of Deputy Holy Master.
Immediately.
Shen Changqing also reacted.
Just a deputy saint.
A false position.
The Ancient Wasteland Holy Land has long since declined. On the surface, there are only two God Lords in charge. Now, they are using the false title of Deputy Holy Lord to recruit another God Lord. He is also a God Lord who has practiced Talisman Dao to the level of the third-level Grandmaster. He is undoubtedly the most powerful one. Things that make a lot of money.
Not only that.
The Ancient Wasteland Holy Land can take this opportunity to directly intervene in the affairs of Honglingfang City.
This way.
The conditions given by the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land are absolutely guaranteed to make a profit without losing money.
While Shen Changqing was silent, Bei Jue was already looking at the other party with a smile, showing a confident attitude.
How many monks want to join the Ancient Holy Land and struggle to do so, but not everyone can succeed.
What's more, this time the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land is not just recruiting people, but directly giving out the position of the Deputy Holy Master.
As long as you are a normal monk, there is no reason to refuse.
Just when Bei Jue thought there was no accident, Shen Changqing's voice came.
"I am honored to be valued by the Ancient Holy Land, but I have always been used to freedom and not accustomed to being restricted, so I still need to consider what the Lord God said."
"God Lord Hongling agrees to...what?"
As soon as Bei Jue said the words, he suddenly reacted and looked at Shen Changqing with eyes full of disbelief.
What is the other person saying?
This is rejection!
The so-called consideration is just a casual talk, and normal people can hear the rejection in the other party's words.
This completely caught Bei Jue off guard.
At this time, it was difficult to maintain the smile on his face, and his expression was slightly solemn.
"God Lord Hongling must understand that catastrophes are happening frequently these days, and no matter how strong the individual cultivators are, it is difficult for them to protect themselves. Only by joining other forces and combining the strength of a group of monks can we truly survive the catastrophes.
Our Ancient Wasteland Holy Land is second to none in terms of strength in the entire Ancient Wasteland, not to mention that the position of Deputy Holy Master is also highly respected, so why do you need to think so much."
"I understand the Lord Shen's good intentions, but this matter is not trivial, so I need to think about it carefully. When I make a decision, I will inform the Lord Shen as soon as possible!"
"Okay, since you have made up your mind, I won't force you. I'll take my leave!"
Bei Jue didn't say any more. As a divine king, he also wanted to save face. He was rejected by Shen Changqing again and again, so he had no intention of continuing.
so.
When the voice fell.
Bei Jue simply led the other monks away.
Watching the people leaving, the smile on Shen Changqing's face gradually faded, and his eyes gradually became calm, but it was a bit scary.
"This time, I have offended the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land. I just hope you can be more sensible, otherwise, there will be no need for the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land to exist!"
Bei Jue was rejected by himself and felt dissatisfied, and Shen Changqing could see it clearly.
but.
The other party is dissatisfied, and as long as it doesn't affect him, he doesn't bother to care.
But if the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land becomes angry because of this, Shen Changqing doesn't mind taking action personally to wipe out the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land.
A declining Holy Land sect.
to be honest.
Shen Changqing really didn't put the ancient holy land in his eyes.
Even in the ancient Holy Land where the God-Emperor was in charge and was at its peak, he would not feel any pressure.
…
the other side.
Coming out of Shen Changqing's mansion, Bei Jue's originally unattractive complexion turned completely gloomy, and it was as black as ink, as if it could drip water.
"Deputy Holy Master, what should I do now?"
An elder frowned slightly.
Shen Changqing's refusal also surprised them.
Bei Jue's voice was indifferent: "The one who wants to consider it, let him think about it carefully, and then wait for the auction first. The third-level master's talisman is also of great use to the Holy Land.
If you can get them all, they will be of great use!"
