"By the way, little monk, Gao Lan escaped and secretly went south, causing a disturbance. My master was alarmed and went to Longtai. If you meet him again, it's best to avoid him."

Jiang Zhiwei was afraid that Meng Qi would bring up the martial arts technique again, so she deliberately changed the subject.

Speaking of this matter, Meng Qi told his own experience in detail, hiding Gu Xiaosang's joke and the absurd act of sworn brotherhood with Gao Lan. Then he took out the remains of the Human Emperor Sword and asked seriously: "Do you have a corresponding refining diagram?"

Jiang Zhi frowned slightly and answered the question irrelevantly: "According to my master, Gao Lan is sometimes crazy and passionate, and sometimes he is ruthless and cruel. When he gets mad, he is even more unreasonable. He once killed many noble families and sects in Northern Zhou that were dependent on the royal family and betrayed the Gao family. He colluded with the top noble families and martial arts sects to suppress and seal Gao Lan. If Senior Chonghe and Mr. Lu were not confronting Guerduo and the Grand Master of the Changsheng Sect at that time, he would have died."

"When you are with him, you must be careful with your words and not to touch his sore spot."

It turns out that my elder brother had such a past... Meng Qi suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, he had always been cautious, and even though he had become sworn brothers with Gao Lan, he did not act without restraint.

"It sounds like Gao Lan has attained the Dharma body..." Ruan Yushu's voice was cold and erratic.

From Meng Qi's description, Gao Lan's strength has exceeded her and others' imagination, and is beyond their comprehension and understanding, so she guessed that one of the twin stars of the past has condensed into a Dharma body.

However, the Ruan family of Langya had not had a great Dharma master for several generations, and Ruan Yushu could only judge based on the few words recorded in the family books and could not be sure.

Meng Qi confirmed:
"He should have attained the Dharmakaya. Brother Shang Yi also met us in the Human Emperor Ancient Road. If not, Gao Lan and I might not be able to survive until now!"

He had some hope before, but now after knowing Gao Lan's past, he broke out in a cold sweat.

Ruan Yushu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked:

"Is he still in the Human Emperor Ancient Road?!"

There was some worry in his words.

Meng Qi nodded and said:
"Brother Shang has been doing something in the Human Emperor Ancient Road for more than half a year without even caring about the Human Emperor Sword and these scraps!"

Then he comforted:

"With Brother Shang's methods, there shouldn't be any problem. I'm sure there are more important secrets there than the Human Emperor Sword!"

As Meng Qi spoke, he looked up at the beam of light in the center. Everyone's eyes flickered when they heard his words, and they tacitly stopped discussing this topic.

"Sometimes, my master gives me the same feeling, but rarely..."

Jiang Zhiwei changed the subject thoughtfully and said, "If Gao Lan condenses his Dharma body, the world will probably enter a period of trouble."

"At least there will be changes in the Heavenly Ranking." Qi Zhengyan's tone was unclear whether it was yearning or emotion.

Since the matter of Dharmakaya was too far away from them, they did not dwell on it too much and instead discussed seriously how to improve "Heavenly Wound" or "Flowing Fire".

At this moment, the light column rose again, and Zhao Heng emerged in it, and was actually injured.

Without waiting for Meng Qi to ask, he walked out with a wry smile: "The team I led was too willful and reckless. They acted boldly and adventurously, causing drastic changes in the mission. I couldn't take the initiative to hurt anyone, and I was almost implicated by them... Uh, the secret treasure of humanity! The True Emperor Seal!"

He was shocked and speechless before he could finish his words, because Meng Qi had a seal in his hand that exuded a humanitarian aura.

Hey, you're paying so much attention to the Crown Prince and King Jin's intentions... Meng Qi chuckled secretly, confirmed Zhao Laowu's thoughts, and said leisurely: "I picked it up on the road. Do you want it? If you want it, tell me and we can discuss the details of the exchange."

Zhao Heng's expression changed slightly, and he said, "I have no ambitions and have never thought about the throne. What's the point of having this real imperial seal?"

"Okay then, I'll exchange it for Liudao." Meng Qi said without further ado, turned around and walked towards the central column of light.

"Wait, wait a minute!" Zhao Heng subconsciously spoke out to stop him.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Jiang Zhiwei covering her mouth with her left hand and laughing secretly. Ruan Yushu was looking at her toes, as if enduring something. Qi Zhengyan turned his head away, unable to bear to look at her.

Zhao Heng's eyelids twitched a few times, and he swallowed the words "presenting it to my father" and said self-deprecatingly: "Alas, if the thief is not dead, it will be difficult in the future. Su Meng, can the real imperial seal be kept until the end of the mission? I can't gather so many good deeds for the time being."

He lost a lot of items in his last mission, so most of his accumulation in the main world was exchanged for useful things. Even though he was rich, he was still stretched to the limit. He could only ask Meng Qi to keep some for himself and sell everything he had after the mission was completed.

"Okay!" Meng Qi turned around and said with a smile.

Anyway, what he got was for Sikong Tu's wife and children, so leaving Zhao Heng's items behind temporarily would help him complete the mission.

As there was no time to go to Xianji to exchange it and he was in urgent need of good deeds, Meng Qi reluctantly returned the "Vajra Seal" to Liudao and obtained 1,050 good deeds. Together with the remaining merits, the total was 1,170 good deeds.

Jiang Zhiwei and the others completed the exchange before leading the mission, leaving only 500 merits each to exchange for the "Immortal Binding Rope" - a secret treasure worth 2,500 merits, which can only be used once, but can bind strong men below the third level of the outer scene, forcing them to rely on their own bodies or a small amount of extremely special skills to withstand attacks within five breaths.

Therefore, after exchanging for the "Immortal Binding Rope", they had nothing to do and all helped Meng Qi plan the upgrade of his precious weapons. They also said that if Meng Qi lacked good deeds, they could exchange some elixirs for them and lend them to him.

For Yu Mengqi, although he does not have healing pills for the time being, his own body protection skills have greatly improved, he is not easily injured, and his recovery ability is already very strong. He can also buy or temporarily "borrow" his friends' from the mission world, so he decided to upgrade his weapons first to improve his combat effectiveness.

This is much more useful for tasks!

After considering various aspects, Meng Qi chose to upgrade Liuhuo, because it is a sword, and it is stronger than the Thunder Blade, and is more suitable for the scrap of the Human Emperor Sword. Then Jiang Zhiwei provided a refining diagram, using the sublimation method of the various metals contained in the scrap as the main material, supplemented by various fire materials.

After spending a total of six hundred good deeds, Meng Qi watched the flowing fire roiling and steaming in the central light column, bursting into a scarlet glow.

After a while, he took out his sword and suddenly had an inexplicable feeling:
"Liuhuo can grow into a precious weapon worth five thousand merits. It is made of scraps from the Human Emperor Sword and red dragon scales. Every time a powerful enemy is killed, it will use the opponent's will and blood to temper itself and climb upwards."

"Due to the limitations of its own materials, it can only be upgraded to the level of a top-grade treasure weapon.

"Its scorching heat is restrained, it can cut metal like mud, and burn evil and filth. If it is used with all its strength, it can bring about changes in the sky within a radius of 20 miles, burning the clouds, filling the sky with flowing fire, and turning the flames into hell. If it is concentrated, the external scene will not be visible, and the invisible sword energy will hurt people. Once the enemy is hit, a wisp of Yin Fire will burn from the soles of their feet, and half a strand of Eight Divisions of Heavenly Dragon Fire will descend from their eyebrows. The place where the sword hits will rise up with the remaining fire of the Dragon Platform. The three will meet and turn into ash."

"It contains powerful power. Through its aura, we can borrow some of its power and display various magical powers."

Suddenly, flames appeared, and Meng Qi disappeared from the sight of Jiang Zhiwei and others. Soon, flames rose in the distance, and Meng Qi stepped out.

"The range of Fire Escape is no more than ten feet, but it's pretty good..." Meng Qi smiled.

Jiang Zhiwei looked at Liuhuo with admiration and praised it.

After everything was ready, several people began to wait for the mission to begin.

Suddenly, Ruan Yushu whispered:
"The Demon Mirror, the Demon Suppression Tower, the Immortal Binding Rope, these secret treasures are strange and powerful. They can help us to deal with external situations, but there are basically no such things in our world..."

Although the Ruan family also has secret treasures, they are only able to separate the aura of the treasured soldiers, or to block an attack from the outside world, or have similar power. They are not like the secret treasures such as the Immortal Binding Rope and the Demon Mirror, which have special effects, are highly targeted and extremely terrifying. "Maybe, there is a world that specializes in this..." Meng Qi took a deep breath and said meaningfully.

At this time, the voice of the Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation sounded:

"In ancient times, gods and demons descended upon the world, leaving behind many descendants, unique skills, and precious weapons, bringing turmoil and prosperity to the earth."

"Now, the royal family has lost its way, the emperor has failed, war is raging everywhere, and rebellion is on the rise."

"Let's see which descendant of gods and demons can obtain the Nine Cauldrons and ask the world!"

"Main quest: Go to Daning, rescue the leader of the Red Army trapped in the city, 'World-suppressing Heavenly King' Du Huaishang, and assassinate the mastermind behind the scenes, 'Blue-eyed Flying Dragon' Zuo Hanfeng. If you complete the task, you will be rewarded with 1,000 merits. If you fail, the corresponding merits will be deducted."

…………

Behind the hill, in a camp, several men in red were looking at each other with worried expressions.

"Sixth Brother, didn't you burn the talismans left by the alien? Can you ask the master for help? Why hasn't he shown up yet?" The leader paced anxiously.

Lao Liu was a shrewd man. He sighed and said, "I just gave it a try. Who knew that the talisman of the alien would not work..."

Boom!

Suddenly, there was a sound of thunder in the sky, and countless silver-white lightning struck, illuminating the surrounding area like daylight.

Lightning flashed and crackled, and five figures emerged from it. At the same time, a black bird flew from the void and landed on the shoulder of one of the women.

“Master…” Several men in red opened their mouths halfway, staring blankly at the strange scene before them.

Zhao Heng looked at Ruan Yushu's shoulder with envy. He knew that this was not an ordinary black bird, but a magical weapon with life that could move independently. It was equivalent to a protector of the Dharmakaya realm!
With the Black Bird around, no one can hurt Ruan Yushu unless the Dharmakaya takes action personally.

Of course, he also knew that the black bird would not help them easily, and would only take action at the critical moment of life and death.

There was no wind or thunder, but silver-white lightning bolts struck densely, and demons danced wildly, turning into a forest of thunder, bringing a doomsday-like atmosphere.

They entangled with each other, crackling continuously, and condensed into five different figures.

Several men in dark red clothes were already stunned. Although there were many descendants of gods and demons in the world who could communicate between heaven and earth with the help of the power of blood and produce all kinds of miracles, to achieve a similar doomsday thunder punishment scene, perhaps only real gods and demons could do it.

The silver-white lightning gradually subsided, and five figures appeared clearly in their eyes, three men and two women, all of whom had extraordinary auras, and some of them had extremely outstanding looks.

"Yes, it's Master!" The monkey-like man called Lao Liu suddenly came to his senses and exclaimed.

“Master?” The leader and several others looked at each other, seeing the surprise and astonishment in each other’s eyes.

Could it be that the guru mentioned by the stranger is a celestial being who serves the real gods and demons? Otherwise, why would the scene when he appeared be so exaggerated and shocking!
They had been at the brink of bloodshed for many years, but they quickly calmed down and the leader bowed respectfully: "The five masters have come to the world in response to the imperial edict. We are deeply grateful."

Since the reincarnation mission began, Meng Qi and others were usually quietly thrown into the world by Liudao, and had never had such a prominent appearance, so they were quite surprised for a moment.

Fortunately, Meng Qi was "used" to showing off in front of others, so he quickly put on a stern face without showing a trace of smile, and said sternly: "What are you burning the talisman for?"

He asked back based on the meaning of the other party's words.

Seeing that Meng Qi was so accustomed to similar situations, Jiang Zhiwei shook her head with amusement. It was true that it was difficult for the little monk to change his nature. But as long as he didn't let his "habits" lead him around and affect his judgment and ruin things, why not do it?

The leader bowed his head and saluted respectfully, then quietly looked up at Meng Qi and found that this master was not very old, handsome, with a long sword on his waist, and dressed in white. He did not have any characteristics of a god or demon, but his eyes were as deep as a bottomless pool, and they sparkled and changed like stars, which made people immersed in it and unable to extricate themselves.

"Master, we are the leaders of the Red Army. Our eldest brother Du Huaishang is trapped in Daning and we have no other options, so we burned the alien talisman and asked for help." The leader said respectfully.

Jiang Zhiwei, Zhao Heng, Qi Zhengyan and Ruan Yushu stood in front and behind, two in front and two in the back. Once there was a change, they could play to their strengths. Meng Qi held up the "Liuhuo" and asked calmly, "Is the 'World-Suppressing Heavenly King' Du Huaishang?"

"Master, do you know my elder brother?" The leader was surprised and happy.

Big brother's reputation has spread beyond the Nine Heavens and has been known by the celestial masters who serve the gods and demons?
The monkey spirit man circulated the power of his blood, and his voice was as thin as a thread, drilling into the ears of the leader: "Second brother, the stranger was saved by the eldest brother, and he was able to ask the master to come down to the mortal world to help. He can communicate with the nine heavens and pass on the name of the benefactor."

So that's how it is... The leader suddenly realized.

Meng Qi didn't understand the situation, so he didn't respond and said:

"Tell me in detail about how Du Huaishang was trapped in Daning."

"Thank you, Master!" The leader could hardly contain his joy.

Such a question means that the master is willing to rescue the eldest brother!

Then, he organized his words and said, "The emperor is unjust, and the people are living in misery. Big brother raised his banner in Ningnan, determined to save the people from the dire straits and create a paradise. Therefore, he will fight to the death with the governor of Daning and the Zhennan Army under his command."

"Whenever we go to war, we all wear red battle jackets, so we are called the Red Army. We are a thorn in the side of the imperial court. If it weren't for the smoke of war everywhere and many earth-level masters mixed in, the imperial court would have been exhausted and would have sent more masters to the south to wipe us out."

As a half-baked strategist of the Red Army, in his eyes, the master came from beyond the Nine Heavens and served the true gods and demons. If he could get them to support the Red Army, great things could be accomplished. So he spoke a few long-winded words and explained the origin and beliefs of the Red Army.

After saying this, he quietly raised his eyes and saw that the expressions of Meng Qi and others were unchanged, so he suppressed his impulse and returned to the topic: "A few days ago, we received news that the 'Blue Eyed Flying Dragon' Zuo Hanfeng, who stayed behind in Daning, recruited a group of strangers and prepared to attack the main force of our Red Army, so we wanted to find out more about this matter."

There are many descendants of gods and demons in this world, and the form of war is more like a one-on-one duel or a gang fight between generals. The winner will then lead the soldiers to attack. As long as a few main generals are killed, the Red Army will be destroyed.

"Zuo Hanfeng is very powerful, and Daning has many masters. It is a real dragon's den and tiger's lair. We are not strong enough, and we will only be a burden if we follow him. That's why Big Brother went there alone to contact the spies." The leader's expression became solemn and worried. "Who knew that on the third day after Big Brother entered the city, Zuo Hanfeng suddenly blocked the city, allowing people to enter but not leave. From then on, the inside and outside were separated. We had no news about Big Brother, and sent several spies in, but still no news."

"If our appearance, figure and skills had not been spread all over Daning, we would not have been able to sneak in under such circumstances. We would have entered the city and died together with Big Brother. Now we can only stabilize the team and are at a loss. Fortunately, God has mercy on us and sent five masters to help us."

"As long as you can save my brother from this predicament, you will be rewarded handsomely afterwards."

Meng Qi listened quietly without saying a word, and said calmly: "Since there is an imperial edict, we will take action. There is no need to ask for a high reward. As long as you are willing, it will be fine."

Intentional? The leading man frowned. This cannot be taken lightly. How much reward would be considered intentional?

The more nonchalant the other party sounds, the more you should not take it lightly!
"When we came to the mortal world, we were subject to many restrictions and could not fully exert our strength, so we could not succeed easily. We need you to provide us with relevant information so that we can know ourselves and the enemy." Meng Qi made up a reason.

He did not specify the reason for the restriction, so that if the man had any questions, he could calmly explain them. (End of this chapter)
