Chapters 261 to 62: The Big Demon Mixed In (2-in-1 Chapter Ask for a Monthly Pass)
The reward from the imperial court came quickly.
It only took half a month to arrive at Nanhai City.
at the same time.
The reconstruction of the Demon Division in Baiyue Town has actually started a long time ago.
Of course.
Shen Changqing had advanced the money, and would get it back when the government's allocation came.
Such an approach would definitely cause some trouble for ordinary people.
But if it were him, there wouldn't be so many problems.
Strong.
There are privileges everywhere.
at this point.
There is no doubt about it.
"Ten thousand meritorious deeds can be regarded as alleviating an urgent need!"
Shen Changqing held the ten thousand meritorious deeds in his arms, and a big stone fell in his heart.
In terms of meritorious service.
He is really lacking.
Not only do you need merit for building the Demon-Suppressing Prison, but you also need merit for issuing subsequent tasks.
Just like Jiang An.
Some demon slayers may not be willing to do tasks that are settled with money.
to be honest.
Demon Slayers are all about improving their strength.
There are only a few treasures that can be bought outside.
Those who are truly rich in resources, the Demon-Suppressing Division is second to none.
so.
If you want to improve your strength, you can only have enough meritorious deeds. The rest are quite difficult.
During this period, Shen Changqing went to the Demon Slaying Hall again and exchanged all the evil auras on his body, except for the evil aura at the demon level, into meritorious deeds.
moment.
The meritorious service increased from 10,000 to about 11,000.
This meritorious service value was hundreds more than he expected.
Go to the construction site of Demon Suppression Prison.
Shen Changqing happened to see Jiang An squatting on the ground, playing with something.
That thing.
It looked a bit like a square, flat box, or something similar to an iron plate. He couldn't tell what material it was made of at a glance.
"Brother Jiang, what is this?"
Shen Changqing asked directly.
As he spoke, his eyes fell on the thing.
I saw strange lines carved on the dark flat surface. Those lines were somewhat similar to the runes carved in the Demon Suppressing Prison. There were also several prismatic grooves on it, as if something was to be placed.
"Brother Shen is here."
Jiang An then raised his head.
He has long been used to Shen Changqing coming and going without a trace.
so.
Even though the sound was abrupt, Jiang An was not surprised.
After hearing the other party's question, he smiled and said.
"Brother Shen, do you remember that I once told you that Qianxin Pavilion borrowed a magic detector from the palace for research, hoping to mass-produce something similar to the magic detector to detect the existence of evil spirits?"
"Remember...could it be that this is the magic detector!"
Shen Changqing replied instinctively, and then looked at the inconspicuous thing in front of him with a shocked expression.
It is impossible for Jiang An to talk about the magic measuring instrument for no reason.
There is only one explanation for now.
The thing in front of me is the so-called magic measuring instrument.
moment.
He thought of other aspects again.
The magic detector suddenly appeared here. What does that mean? It means that Da Qin has been able to mass produce the magic detector.
This way.
In the land of Da Qin, all evil spirits will have no escape.
After figuring out the joints, Shen Changqing couldn't help but be shocked.
Jiang An smiled and said: "Yes, this is something studied by borrowing the magic measuring instrument, but it is not called the magic measuring instrument, and it is very different from the original magic measuring instrument.
It took me Qianxin Pavilion many years to truly research it.
If you don't reach the top, you don't have the qualifications to contact us."
"What is this thing called?"
"Astrolabe."
"Astrolabe?"
Shen Changqing looked startled again.
This name surprised him very much.
for a while.
I still can't figure out the origin of this name.
Jiang An smiled and said: "Brother Shen will soon understand the naming of the astrolabe. At present, each astrolabe has been sent to the Magic Division branch in each town. It will not be long before it will be fully launched."
"Can only a branch of the Demon Suppressing Division own an astrolabe?"
Shen Changqing frowned.
He thought that every level would have something like this to monitor the existence of evil spirits.
If it was only owned by the Demon Suppressing Division branch, its effect would be much smaller.
Hear the words.
Jiang An shook his head: "Brother Shen, don't underestimate the astrolabe. You will understand by then. To be honest, I didn't participate in much research on the astrolabe, so after I got the astrolabe, I found that it was better than I imagined. The middle one is stronger.
Right now, the astrolabe is being shipped to various cities, and it has not yet been time to actually activate it."
See what the other party said about keeping it confidential.
Shen Changqing was even more curious about the astrolabe.
"When will the astrolabe be officially launched?"
"August fifteenth!"
"August fifteenth?"
When Shen Changqing heard this time, his face looked a little strange.
pity.
There is no legend about Chang'e flying to the moon in this world, nor is there any talk about the Mid-Autumn Festival.
August 15th is just an ordinary day.
He silently counted the time and found that compared with August 15th, there were not many days left.
Later.
Shen Changqing asked again: "As for the astrolabe, where do you plan to place it?"
"The capital of the country has summoned the astrolabe, and the astrolabe is placed in the meeting hall. Only the guard envoy can ensure that the astrolabe is worry-free."
Jiang An said in a deep voice.
"Right now, I just got the astrolabe. If Brother Shen doesn't come, it won't be long before I go to find you. Now that Brother Shen is here, let's go to the meeting hall together."
"That's fine."
soon.
The two of them went to the meeting hall together.
After hearing the news about the astrolabe, Yun Zun and Fei Yun came here to inquire.
As for Xiang Yuan and Fu Lan, they both went back to Baiyue City and were no longer in Nanhai City.
"Is this the astrolabe?"
"Hey, Qianxin Pavilion is really strict about keeping secrets. I didn't even get any information in advance."
Yunzun and Fei Yun were filled with emotion.
They are not from Qianxin Pavilion, and they have no understanding of the astrolabe.
Looking at the lines on it, I felt a strange feeling in my heart.
It is clear.
The news that Qianxin Pavilion produced the astrolabe has not spread.
Only a very small number of people are truly aware of the existence of astrolabe.
——
Things will be much simpler from now on.
Time passes day by day, the Demon Division in Baiyue Town has almost been rebuilt, and the Demon Suppression Prison in Nanhai City has begun to take shape.
Although it's not quite finished yet, it still looks a bit like it.
Astrology matters a lot.
There will almost always be a guardian envoy staying in the meeting hall to ensure that the astrolabe is worry-free.
Although so far, the astrolabe has not revealed anything magical.
Not long after.
It’s already August 14th.
This day.
Shen Changqing and others gathered in the main hall, and everyone's eyes fell on the astrolabe.
"Brother Jiang, do you have an accurate time for opening the astrolabe on August 15th?"
"When midnight arrives, the astrolabe opens."
Jiang An said in a deep voice.
Then, he paused and looked solemnly at the person in front of him.
"Brother Shen, it's almost time now. I suggest it's best to call everyone in the Demon Suppression Division to gather in the main hall to avoid any accidents."
"What do you mean?"
"Brother Shen will know when the time comes."
Jiang An was sold out.
Shen Changqing looked at Yunzun and the others, and finally nodded.
"Okay, I will ask all the people from the Demon Division in Nanhai Town to gather here. In addition, people from Baiyue City and Poshan City are also going to Zhenxie Pavilion now?"
He thought of the other two branches of the Demon Suppression Division.
Start the horoscope.
It should be operated by someone from Qianxin Pavilion.
Jiang An said: "Brother Shen is right. As early as the arrival of the astrolabe, relevant people had gone to various Suppression Division branches."
"I see."
Shen Changqing nodded.
Since the other party said so, there is no reason for him to refuse.
Summoning the people from the Demon Suppression Division is not a troublesome matter.
As the order came out, all the people who were still in the Demon Suppression Division came to the meeting hall, including the demon slayers sitting in the library.
for a while.
There were hundreds of people gathered in the main hall.
This.
It's just the people who are currently staying in the Demon Suppression Division. If you include those who go to various places to perform tasks, the number is far more than a few hundred.
After all, the stability of a jurisdiction must be maintained.
After all, there are a few hundred demon slayers.
Was summoned suddenly.
Everyone had doubtful looks on their faces.
Observing the doubts of others, Jiang An said loudly: "Don't be surprised. It is important to gather you all at the moment. I hope everyone will stay where you are and don't move. If anyone leaves without permission, I have reason to suspect that you have betrayed The Demon-Suppressing Division.
Therefore, stay where you are and don’t act rashly. When the time comes, everything will be fine.”
Wait until Jiang An finishes speaking.
Shen Changqing said calmly: "What Elder Jiang said is what I meant. I hope everyone can cooperate and avoid causing unpleasantness."
The voice fell.
Everyone looked solemn.
If many people in Jiang An don't know each other and don't take his words seriously, then no one dares to disobey Shen Changqing's words.
Talk about it.
Among the Nanhai Town Demon Division, the prestige of the Nanyou Mansion's guardian envoy is higher than that of Yun Zun, the person in charge.
The scene became quiet.
Although many people had doubts in their hearts, they did not ask.
Time passes little by little.
Jiang An checked that the time was almost up and then came to the astrolabe placed in the middle of the hall.
To place the astrolabe.
The Demon Suppressor specially built a half-person-high pillar in the middle of the hall.
immediately.
He solemnly took out a jade box from his arms.
Opening the jade box, a surge of spiritual energy came out. Shen Changqing took a closer look and saw several blue stones placed on it.
When I saw those stones.
He suddenly thought of something, and his heart couldn't help but tremble.
Spiritual stone!
A kind of treasure that has only been seen in martial arts archives but has never been seen before.
"Brother Jiang, is the thing in your hand a spiritual stone?"
Shen Changqing asked, wanting to confirm.
Hear the words.
Jiang An nodded: "Yes, this is the spirit stone."
While speaking, he had already taken out the spirit stones and placed them one by one in the prismatic grooves of the astrolabe.
——
"let's start!"
In the Demon Division of the Capital City, Dongfang Zhao looked at the astrolabe in front of him, and his expression became unusually solemn.
This astrolabe.
It is much larger than the astrolabe in other branches, and the patterns carved on it are even more bizarre and unpredictable.
The voice fell.
The people of Qianxin Pavilion, who had been prepared for a long time, took out the corresponding spiritual stones and embedded them inside one by one.
With the spiritual stone embedded.
In the huge astrolabe, blue light suddenly appeared on the lines, and then they were outlined together instantly.
Immediately afterwards.
boom!
A beam of green light soared directly into the sky from the astrolabe. Even the main hall could not hinder the impact of the green light. It directly broke through the shackles of the main hall and went straight into the sky above Qingming.
In the dark night.
I saw a huge beam of blue light in the capital reaching straight into the sky, and all the darkness seemed to slowly dissipate under this beam of blue light.
After the blue light soared into the sky.
Less than a quarter of an hour.
In the distant night sky, there was a second beam of blue light rushing into the sky.
The third bunch!
The fourth bunch!
Beams of blue light soared into the sky, coming into view like pillars of heaven.
Nanyou Mansion.
Nanhai Town Demon Division, in the meeting hall.
Everyone's eyes are on the astrolabe.
A quarter of an hour has passed since the spirit stone was embedded, but there is still no movement.
When others were confused, Jiang An was also under great pressure.
"But don't let anything go wrong!"
He prayed secretly in his heart.
Although I know the astrolabe well, this is the first time in my history that I have activated the astrolabe myself.
so.
Jiang An himself was not sure if there was something wrong with the astrolabe.
If there is really a problem, then this time the Demon Suppression Division's research will be considered a complete failure.
Just when he was praying secretly.
suddenly.
On the spiritual stone inlaid on the astrolabe, there is a rich spiritual energy that turns into blue light and travels on the lines.
The next moment.
All the lines lit up, and a surging blue light rushed directly from the astrolabe, directly penetrated the hall, and went directly to the sky.
The sudden change caused everyone's expressions to change drastically.
Shen Changqing looked up along the blue light, as if the sky was filled with a light blue color.
In the blue light.
He noticed a surging spiritual energy surging.
"Astrolabe!"
Shen Changqing thought to himself.
He vaguely understood the origin of the name.
Less than an hour.
There are cyan stars rising into the sky from all over the Qin Dynasty, directly bombarding the sky.
If you look from a high place, you can see that there are blue light pillars all over Da Qin.
"What the hell is that?"
In a wilderness, Wang Mubai looked at the blue light in the sky and felt an uncomfortable feeling in his heart.
This feeling.
It made him feel very unhappy.
even.
For a moment, I wanted to take action and destroy the green light.
but.
Although there was such an impulse in his heart, Wang Mubai did not actually take action.
He will not easily take risks before he understands what Da Qin's purpose is.
I took a few glances.
Wang Mubai withdrew his gaze and looked at Tan Tianji who was standing aside.
"You are from the Demon Suppressing Division. Do you know what these blue lights are?"
"Well... my subordinates don't know either."
Tan Tianji was startled for a moment, then shook his head.
Although he is a member of the Demon Suppression Division, he is only an elder in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and he may not have access to many confidential matters.
If anyone knows me here.
You will find out.
The former elder of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is much younger than before. He does not have any aura of twilight in his body, and his energy and blood are frighteningly full.
It is clear.
Tan Tianji got what he wanted after betraying the Demon Suppression Division and joining Wang Mubai.
Looking at Qingguang, his expression became a little more solemn.
"The appearance of Qingguang must be unusual. Sir, do we still want to find Shen Changqing now?"
to be honest.
Today's Shen Changqing has changed so much that Tan Tianji was beyond expectation.
Although he has long known that the opponent is very talented and has great hope of breaking the limit in the future.
But I didn't expect it.
The other party not only broke the limit, but also grew into an even more terrifying situation.
Wang Mubai folded his hands and looked calm.
"I heard that Shi Maha had broken through to the realm, and his strength was comparable to that of our great demon, but he still died in the hands of Shen Changqing.
I would also like to see such a strong man with my own eyes.
What kind of opportunity could allow an ant to grow to where it is now?"
Facing the strong.
All he had in his heart was interest and no fear at all.
So what if it's comparable to a great demon?
Even if you can kill a strong man at the level of a great demon, what will it change?
Regarding this.
Wang Mu Baihun didn't care.
"I hope he is strong enough, otherwise, there will be another natural disaster in Nanyou Mansion!"
The corner of his mouth curled up into a smile.
But this smile, in Tan Tianji's eyes, made him feel an involuntary chill in his heart.
"Sir, I would like to ask, what is your purpose in creating natural disasters in Da Qin?"
"There are some things you shouldn't ask, so don't ask. This is the last time. Next time, it won't be that simple."
Wang Mubai glanced at the other party.
That look.
It made Tan Tianji feel cold all over.
Although he has made breakthroughs in strength, he is still no different from an ant in front of such powerful men.
One sentence.
His inner curiosity was instantly dispelled.
at this time.
All the astrolabes have been activated, and when the blue light hits the sky, all the rays of light are outlined together.
that moment.
The darkness over Da Qin was driven away.
The vast world seems to have gone directly from night to day.
Such a vision shocked everyone.
Just when they were shocked.
Suddenly.
There was cyan light falling from the sky, like a falling star, going in all directions, so densely packed that it was impossible to see clearly at a glance.
Inside the Demon Division of Nanhai Town.
A dozen rays of blue light descended from the sky and fell on some people in the hall.
"what happened?"
"what happened?"
Seeing the blue light falling on his body, those people all had stunned expressions, and the people next to him also had strange expressions.
Obviously.
The blue light cannot fall for no reason.
When Jiang An saw the green light falling, he immediately retreated to Shen Changqing's side and shouted loudly at the same time.
"Guard Shen, those covered in blue light are all demons and monsters. This is the treason of the Demon-Suppressing Division. Kill them quickly!"
The voice fell.
Among the people shrouded in green light, some opened their mouths to cry out that they were wronged, but some people turned around and ran away immediately.
See this scene.
The doubts that Shen Changqing had in his heart all disappeared at this moment.
With a palm strike on his face, the power of his soul came out of his body and fell directly on those who escaped.
Terrible power fell.
The heads of those people exploded in vain, and the headless corpses fell to the ground.
at the same time.
Those demon slayers who stood with the person covered in blue light immediately kept their distance from them.
Although I'm not sure whether Jiang Zuo's words are true or false, I just keep my distance.
Suddenly.
Those people were isolated.
Especially when he saw the headless corpses on the ground, his face became even more frighteningly pale.
Shen Changqing slowly came to the remaining people.
He did not speak, but covered these people with the power of his soul, and carefully felt and searched them.
finally.
There is a cold aura hidden deep in the blood of these people.
Shen Changqing is very familiar with that kind of breath.
"Those who betray the Demon Suppressor will die!"
He made a palm print, and the terrifying power suppressed it. The remaining people were all bombarded into minced meat by this power before they had time to say anything.
at this time.
The green light in the sky has slowly disappeared.
After Shen Changqing killed those who had colluded with Yaoxie, he turned to look at Jiang An, waiting for an explanation.
"The astrolabe is a means of monitoring evil spirits. Nowadays, astrolabees all over Daqin have been activated. It is like there is an invisible protective net over Daqin. As long as any evil spirit steps into this protective net, it will attract the stars. Disk changes.
At that time, when the green light falls, the demons within the scope of Da Qin will be contaminated by the green light, and there will no longer be any possibility of hiding their whereabouts."
When Jiang An said this, he paused and came to the astrolabe.
"Brother Shen, look here."
He pointed to the astrolabe.
Shen Changqing and others looked over and saw an illusory image floating in the sky above the astrolabe.
There is a city.
There are mountains.
There are plains.
In addition, there are many red dots,
"This phantom is actually the manifestation within the jurisdiction of Nanhai City. Mountains, rivers, and even cities and towns are all displayed here. Those red dots represent the number of evil spirits.
A red dot represents a demon or a demon.
The brighter the red dot is, the stronger the evil force is."
Jiang An explained patiently.
After hearing what the other party said, not only Shen Changqing, but also the demon slayers who had just been frightened looked at the phantom and the red dot on it in shock.
If that's the case, then the astrolabe method is too powerful.
As soon as the horoscope comes out.
All evil spirits have nowhere to hide, and they have no chance to hide.
Shen Changqing was also shocked in his heart, but he didn't show much on the outside, he just looked at the shadow in front of him.
"Where is Nanhai City?"
"here."
Jiang An pointed to a city in the middle of the shadow.
I saw that there were a large number of red dots in that city. A rough count showed that there were dozens of dots at least.
Shen Changqing looked cold and ordered immediately.
"Everyone, within half an hour, use all your strength to kill the demons and demons lurking in Nanhai City. Then you can go to various jurisdictions to eliminate the demons and demons hidden there. I will make sure that they no longer have a place to hide in Nanyou Mansion.
I will ask Tianchawei to give you the relevant information as quickly as possible."
"I'll obey!"
Everyone took the order and then turned around and left.
They all understand.
There is bound to be a big battle in Nanyou Mansion tonight.
No.
It’s not just Nanyou Mansion.
The entire Great Qin will be in complete chaos starting tonight.
But as long as all the evil spirits and monsters are killed, Great Qin will regain stability and become more stable than before.
After others leave.
Shen Changqing looked at a certain position in the shadow and couldn't help but frown.
"You said that the brighter the red dot, the stronger the strength. So, what level is the strength of this black dot?"
Hear the words.
Jiang An also discovered red spots at this time, and his face suddenly turned ugly.
"Light red ghost level, light red resentment level, normal red evil level, dark red low-level demons, red with a little black for mid-level demons, black with red for high-level demons, all black for big demons, black to purple He is the Demon Saint."
The voice fell.
Shen Changqing's eyes were slightly cold, staring at the black spot.
"So, there is a big demon sneaking into Nanyou Mansion!"
