Chapter 399
Su Hao has been reincarnated in many worlds, and he has not seen many worlds with a system of slavery.
Perhaps because Su Hao was weak at first and unable to explore the world, he didnt know much!
The word slave suddenly appeared, making Su Haos heart tremble slightly. He walked while observing these ordinary people who deliberately avoided him.
These people looked no different from ordinary people, but Su Hao always felt that something was missing in their spiritual world, as if the vitality of being human was gone, although they still lived stubbornly, they were just like chickens raised in the mountains, surviving by instinct.
Chickens raised in the mountains can actually live happily as long as they dont know too much.
Whats terrible is that the chickens know they are just chickens raised in captivity.
Su Hao looked at these people and realized faintly: They dont hold any hope for life.
These are people who have lost the heart of battle.
If people no longer fight, lifes joys are more than halved!
Su Hao just followed behind Feng Ling, and his fluctuating heart gradually calmed down: Oppression is everywhere! This cultivation world is full of corruption, somethings not right!
As for whats not right, Su Hao couldnt pinpoint it for a while, but he thought to himself, Gather more information first.
Su Hao didnt ask further and soon arrived at a pavilion with Feng Ling. After presenting the special token of the Yunzhong Valley and confirming their identities.
The shopkeeper-like old cultivator took the task scroll handed over by Feng Ling, opened it carefully to inspect, then stroked his chins small beard and said, Wait a moment, I will change the token for you!
After speaking, he slowly turned and entered the compartment.
This old cultivator is a Golden Core cultivator, looking quite old, at least two hundred years old, but still mentally sharp.
There was no longer the enthusiasm for cultivation in his eyes, surrounded by a peaceful atmosphere, as if he had completely laid down and was enjoying the good life now.
In Su Haos view, this old man could actually live to such an age in this chaotic cultivation world, he could be considered a winner in cultivation.
After a slight sound of rummaging through the boxes, the old cultivator finally walked out slowly, holding another scroll of task in his hand, and handed it to Feng Ling, saying, Its done. For the next five years, you will take over the guarding duty of Qilou Peak three thousand miles west of here. Your main responsibility is to ensure the safety of spiritual power mines, prevent them from being plundered by other cultivators, and manage three hundred laborers to collect enough spiritual power stones every month and deliver them here. After five years, you will be rewarded with five hundred merit points.
Feng Ling took it and thanked him, then asked, Uncle Yu, how many disciples will be stationed here next?
The old cultivator said leisurely, Currently, only you two! That place is remote and doesnt need too many cultivators to guard. There wont be any problems. Moreover, there have always been two disciples stationed there for each term, and there has never been any problem. So rest assured!
Feng Ling and Su Hao exchanged glances, not daring to agree with what the old man said. So Feng Ling took out a secret scroll found from a Six Lines Transforming Golden Gate cultivator on the way and said, We encountered a group of Six Elements Transformation Gate cultivators halfway, and accidentally obtained this secret scroll related to our Yunzhong Valley. Uncle Yu, do you know how to report to the Ancestor Wu?
The old cultivator took it slowly, glanced at it for a while, shook his whole body, collected the scroll, immediately jumped up agilely from behind the counter, while pinching his fingers, closed the compartment: I already know, you two may leave!
After saying that, he ran out of the pavilion and disappeared in a moment.
Su Hao and Feng Ling:
No wonder this old man has lived for so long. Facing danger, his reaction is beyond imagination.
Su Hao pointed to the secret scroll in Feng Lings hand and said, Master, let me see the secret scroll. The structure seems to be different from the previous one.
Feng Ling casually handed the secret scroll to Su Hao and said, Lets go! Lets go to Qilou Peak first.
Su Hao and Feng Ling arrived early. There were still more than twenty days before the deadline for taking over the guard duty. They were not in a hurry to take up the post early, but planned to go there to investigate the situation and prepare.
Three thousand miles might not be far, and Su Hao and Feng Ling soon arrived at the location marked on the scroll map.
Here, there were many strange peaks and deep valleys, and Qilou Peak was the highest mountain peak among them.
Su Hao and Feng Ling landed on top of Qilou Peak, looking around, the surrounding mountains and rivers were all within sight.
Su Hao said, There are people below, it seems to be those laborers. Should we go down and take a look?
Feng Ling shook her head and said, No, lets find a place to rest for a while first!
Su Hao also had this intention. What he was thinking now was to establish an experimental base in a corner, then research for a period of time, quickly understand the Foundation Establishment realm, and then find a way to obtain Golden Core realm techniques and attempt to break through to the Golden Core realm.
Huh? Su Hao was about to leave when suddenly he felt something.
Drawing out the versatile knife, Su Hao leaped up and stood firm, flying towards the valley of another mountain, Master, I have found something, come with me!
Wait for me! Feng Ling also leaped up and followed Su Hao.
Since Su Hao demonstrated his strength, it seemed that the roles between Feng Ling and Su Hao had exchanged. Feng Ling consulted Su Haos opinion more frequently, and Su Haos suggestions were almost always agreed upon by Feng Ling without much thought.
She often secretly rejoiced, Having such a disciple who doesnt need to worry about anything is really relaxing. I dont need to think too much!
This is just like when a girl goes on a trip and doesnt like to think about where to go or what to do, as long as everything is arranged properly for her.
Eating well, drinking well, and playing well without using her brain is really enjoyable!
After a while, Su Hao stopped on a stone in a valley, and in front of him was a corpse with eyes wide open, looking up at the sky, with a fatal wound in the heart, blood staining the ground beneath.
Seeing the crescent moon mark on his clothing, it was obviously a disciple of the Yunzhong Valley.
Feng Ling landed beside Su Hao, looking shocked at the disciple, murmuring, This is a disciple of the Yunzhong Valley. I have seen him twice in the sect. It is said that he is also a strong disciple in the Foundation Establishment realm. Why did he suddenly die here?
Su Hao said, From the look of it, he hasnt been dead for long. Perhaps he is the disciple stationed at Qilou Peak for the Yunzhong Valley!
Feng Ling frowned and said, Elder Yu said that there are two disciples stationed here. Where is the other person?
Feng Ling finished speaking, looked at Su Hao, hoping he could find the other person. Feng Ling was very curious about how Su Hao could find this corpse, but she was too lazy to ask anymore! Asking is genius! Asking is the versatile knife! Asking is smelling! Asking is feeling!
The reason Su Hao could sense this persons corpse was because this person hadnt been dead for long, and there was still a trace of blood reaction in the body. If the other person was also in trouble, Su Hao should be able to find him.
Injecting spiritual power into the core rune in his body, in an instant, the light and shadows of tens of thousands of meters around were within Su Haos perception.
Nothing?
Su Hao frowned and planned to change his approach. He commanded Little Light, Little Light, search for traces of cultivator battles within the past five hours.
Little Light immediately connected with Su Haos radar perception. After a while, Little Lights voice came, Respected Mr. Su Hao, suspected traces of cultivator battles have been marked for you.
Su Hao opened his eyes and flew ahead, saying, Master, follow me!
Feng Ling didnt say much and followed behind Su Hao.
After a while, the two landed in a forest and saw a puddle of blood in the grass, as well as a blood-stained outer garment with the mark of the Yunzhong Valley on it.
Feng Ling muttered, What happened here? Why was it attacked here? Is it related to the leak of the changing guard information we saw earlier?
At this moment, Su Haos voice came, Master, a severed finger was found here. Judging from the residual spiritual power on the severed finger, it should belong to a Golden Core cultivator.
Feng Ling was shocked, A Golden Core cultivator! How how is this possible? Can a Golden Core cultivator die like this?
In Feng Lings understanding, Golden Core cultivators were very powerful. As long as they were prepared, even if they were not as strong as other Golden Core cultivators, they could still escape calmly.
So, there was only one possibility left. A strange fear flashed in Feng Lings eyes as she said slowly, A Nascent Soul cultivator took action!
Su Hao said lightly, Master, the body of the Golden Core cultivator should have been taken away. The killer is probably far away now. There wont be any useful information here. I suggest we report the situation here to the sect as soon as possible and let the elders of the sect decide.
Feng Ling immediately nodded, Okay! Lets set off now!
Just as they were about to leave, Feng Ling suddenly stopped, turned to look at Su Hao, and pointed to the versatile knife behind Su Hao, Feng Wei, if you encounter a Nascent Soul realm cultivator, is this universal knife still useful?
Su Hao casually replied, It should be! I can give it a try!
Feng Ling breathed a sigh of relief, Thats good! Feng Wei, when will you make a universal sword for me?
Su Hao said, In a few days! Ill refine one for you when I have some free time!
With the materials now filling the storage space, what cant be refined?
