Yan Mingkong, who had been under house arrest for a few days, was calm and did not seem to be affected much.
On the contrary, based on what Chen Luoyang knew, the other party had devoted himself to cultivation in a short period of time. Not only did he not waste his willpower, but his sharpness had also become sharper. His cultivation had successfully advanced to the 15th realm, the Ruhua realm.
Compared to Chen Luoyang, she wasn’t as fast. However, she had similarly broken through from the 13th realm to the 15th realm in a few months. She had jumped two steps in a row. If she was placed in the mortal world, it was enough to attract attention.
Other than the boost from the second style of the Dark Sword, Chen Luoyang deduced that another important reason was that the other party had remained at the 13th realm for seven years.
With Yan Mingkong’s past achievements, her talent and comprehension, and the help of the first move of the Dark Sword, it was unusual for her to stop at the thirteenth level.
Perhaps it was because she wanted to fight with Chen Luoyang at that time, forcing her to be patient and continuously temper herself.
To a certain extent, she had succeeded.
At the 13th realm, her strength was even stronger than the Demon Cult Master at the same realm.
If Chen Luoyang hadn’t transmigrated, then Yan Mingkong, who had broken through to the 14th realm, would have been above the Demon Cult Master, who was originally at the same realm.
On one hand, the Nether Sword Technique was truly extraordinary, far surpassing the Heavenly Demon Blood.
On the other hand, Yan Mingkong had a lot of savings.
Therefore, the accumulation of thin hair, once met the wind and cloud will turn into a dragon.
After learning the second style of the Dark Sword, as his cultivation deepened, he crossed the fourteenth realm in a short period of time and broke through to the fifteenth realm.
However, after crossing two realms in a row, her momentum would naturally slow down.
If she didn’t have more fortuitous encounters and resources like Chen
Luoyang, it would be very difficult for her to improve in a short period of time.
Even though the overall cultivation environment in the Mortal World was better than the Divine Lands.
However, the 15th to 16th level was the progress from Martial Emperor to Martial Saint. Becoming a Saint on the spot meant that there was a huge natural chasm that trapped countless geniuses.
Not to mention outside of the Holy Land, there were many direct descendants of the Holy Land who were stuck below the Martial Saint Realm.
Yan Mingkong had been in the mortal world for some time, so he had some understanding of the situation.
However, she was determined and stubborn, so she did not feel discouraged at all.
At this moment, the white-robed woman was also calm and composed after being captured by the dark starry sky.
The deep and majestic mysterious voice rang out, “”lt seems that you have made preparations again.”
“Yes.” Yan Mingkong answered quietly.
The first level of training she was given was to put her in an environment full of enemies and persevere for three days. She would then fight her way out of the encirclement and her life would be up to fate.
At that time, it was precisely because of the ” Life ” Heavenly Book that the few magnates had descended upon the Divine Lands to find trouble with Chen Luoyang.
In order to divert the attention of Old Sword Immortal Tianhe and Blood River Patriarch, Chen Luoyang threw Yan Mingkong into the mortal world.
The two giants did not give in to each other and restrained each other, preventing Yan Mingkong from falling into a dead end immediately.
However, she still had to face many experts from the Sky River and Blood River Families.
It wasn’t easy to hold on.
However, after the battle with Ye Tianmo in Zhengyang City, Blood River Ancestor took the opportunity to find Yan Mingkong.
This almost put Yan Mingkong in a dead end.
No matter how calm and decisive she was. it was impossible for her to face a big shot alone.
That was called courting death, not training.
Thus, even though he didn’t say it explicitly, Chen Luoyang had an unwritten bottom line for Han Mei, Yan Mingkong, Zhao Rimian, and the others.
In other words, when facing a powerhouse at the level of a giant, giving up the mission would not be punished.
Otherwise, it would not be forcing others to do something, but forcing them to die. It would be better to do it himself.
In reality, Chen Luoyang’s bottom line was that he would also give Yan Mingkong and the others a helping hand when facing a Martial Saint at the peak of the 18th realm or even the Red Dust Ten Heroes who were comparable to experts at the 18th realm.
However, it was fine as long as he knew about this.
Under normal circumstances, he wouldn’t have given them such an inhumane task. The main thing was to guard against unexpected accidents.
The only one who was special was Yan Mingkong. Because of his special effect, he was tricked by him.
On the other hand, the special care was basically given to her alone.
Blood River Patriarch left Zhengyang City to look for Yan Mingkong.
Back then, the time limit of three days hadn’t been up yet. However, Chen Luoyang had decisively stopped Yan Mingkong’s training and brought her away, causing Blood River Ancestor to miss.
Under such circumstances, Yan Mingkong did not fail his experiential learning.
Of course, there was no reward.
Yan Mingkong was well aware of this, so he had no objections either. He was calmly waiting for the arrangement of the next test.
“Your fourth test is to head to the southern foot of the Yong Yue mountain range in Western Qin, to the east of the Thousand Parting Peak. Find the deputy general of the Northern Guards, Leng Ji, and send him to the Yunduan Lake in the northern border.” Under the dark starry sky, the deep and mysterious voice echoed, ‘”‘There is a Daoist named Ban Hai over there. Just send Leng Ji to him.”
Then, a light image appeared in front of Yan Mingkong. In it was a middle-aged Daoist with a three-foot-long black beard. He was dressed sloppily, but he had a carefree charm that made people feel moved.
Yan Mingkong knew that this was Daoist Banhai.
She calmly memorized the image of the Taoist priest. A trace of icy blue flashed in her eyes as she said,”Can I ask you two questions?”
“Speak.” Chen Luoyang said.
“If he doesn’t follow me, can I hurt him?” Yan Mingkong asked.
“Sure, as long as you can do it.” “But I can’t harm his life,” Chen Luoyang replied.
Yan Mingkong nodded and continued to ask, “”ls there anyone who has the same mission as me?”
“No, I haven’t.” ” On the contrary, ” Chen Luoyang said, ” there will be people who will obstruct you and attempt to take away your target. For example, Western Qin or Misery.
Yan Mingkong did not show any fear. Instead, when he heard the name ‘Misery,’ icy blue brilliance flashed in his eyes again.
“I have no more questions. I can set off at any time.” she said quietly.
The deep and dignified voice rang out, “” You can leave now. You have one month. ‘
“Yes.” Yan Mingkong answered.
Then, the scene in front of her changed. In the next moment, she had returned to the mortal world that she had not seen for a long time.
Yan Mingkong looked around. This was not the place where she left the mortal world, but somewhere else.
She retracted her sharp edge and first gathered information to confirm her location.
Chen Luoyang wasn’t worried about the other party’s situation.
Back in the Divine Lands, the Great Empress did not only know how to kill.
When he was young, he left the Ancient Gods Clan’s Saint Domain and became a famous witch in the Divine Lands. He had a lot of experience in the martial world.
It wasn’t until she became a Martial Emperor and returned to the sect to take up the position of the Vermilion Bird Palace Hall’s Chief that she began to live in seclusion and gradually reduced her presence in Jianghu.
If Yan Mingkong had not been so experienced, how could he have lasted so long when he had just wandered into the mortal world alone and faced the pursuit of experts from different holy lands?
The Blood River Patriarch had died in the mortal world, and most of the Blood River Lineage had retreated into the Blood Sea.
The old Celestial River Sword Immortal was heavily injured, and the Celestial River Branch had suffered heavy casualties. There were also internal worries, and it was difficult to look after them in the short term.
To Yan Mingkong, the two most obvious threats were not something he needed to worry about for the time being.
Of course, she could not sit back and relax.
Misery and Black Water Palace had direct disciples who died in her hands.
On this trip to escort Leng Ji, he would inevitably have to face the Demonic Buha’s successor of the Misery Sea.
Although the address Chen Luoyang had given Yan Mingkong was more detailed, allowing her to find Leng Ji more easily and quickly, it was still quite a challenge to break through the encirclement and reach their destination, Yunduan Lake, all the way up north.
After all, Yan Mingkong and Leng Ji had yet to break through to the Martial Saint Realm.
Moreover, how Yan Mingkong would convince Leng Ji to go with her might be an even more difficult problem.
As for Yunduan Lake, it was already close to the Black Water Absolute Palace’s territory.
Yan Mingkong had once killed a disciple of the Black Water Palace. This was another test for her.
However, this test was not only targeted at her.
Chen Luoyang wanted to test another person.
The old lord of the Black Water Absolute Palace, the Infernal Queen, Ji Tianqiong.
Chen Luoyang was very interested. If Yan Mingkong ended up in the hands of the Black Water Palace, how would the Infernal Queen deal with him?
As far as he knew, Yan Mingkong had a good relationship with Chen Chuhua when they were in the Divine Lands.
Although one was the pillar of the elder faction and the other was the backbone of the younger faction, the two had a clear distinction between public and private affairs. They often fought in public affairs, but they did not damage their personal relationship.
If Chen Chuhua was really related to the Infernal Queen, would there be more clues regarding Yan Mingkong?
Before he interacted with the Infernal Queen, he might be able to let Yan Mingkong probe the waters first…Chen Luoyang thought to himself.
As for Daoist Banhai, who was waiting at Yunduan Lake, Chen Luoyang had naturally used the ” Illusion ” Heavenly Book and the Green Bull Temple’s supreme treasure, the Tusita Heavenly Net, to deal with him.
He had never intended to hand Leng Ji over to West Qin or Misery so easily.
Of course, these two families were powerful and had more than one or two Martial Saints.
It was not easy to fish in troubled waters.
This was especially so for the Great Cult Master Chen himself, who would have to spend more time on his own cultivation to digest what he had learned. On the surface, he wanted to stay out of this West Qin battle.
Misery was a good lackey. He did not say that he would take care of the other party, but at least he would not directly ruin the situation on the surface.
But in private, there was still room for manipulation.
After sending Yan Mingkong off, Chen Luoyang touched another star.
Then, a woman in red appeared under the dark starry sky.
“Greetings, Senior,” Han Mei greeted with a smile.
Her heart was pounding.
The other party had teleported a big shot like the Azure Dragon Island Master last time, so she was almost certain that this mysterious Almighty expert was the Supreme Being who dominated the mortal world.
She couldn’t resist at all and could only go with the flow.
However, the other party had said that there would be a punishment accompanying the fourth test..
