Chapter 2490 2,381, Qilin’s Mutation
Even Su Yu, who had been expelled, had nothing to say. The hall master could only announce, “Alright, Su Yu will be transferred out of the Hundred Horse Path Group.”
The announcement made Su Yu’s heart slightly relax.
Hundred Lotus Heart and Heavenly Spirit Path also got what they wanted. They no longer looked at Su Yu.
The next thing to do was to disband everyone in the competition.
“Also, I have an announcement to make.”As expected, the Hall Master spoke his true intention at the end.
His expression was solemn, he said sternly, “According to the reliable information we have, there are suspicious people at the border. They are investigating several mines at our border. I have decided to send ten groups of members to the border to investigate. Once we find signs of a large-scale invasion, we will immediately report it to the sect.”
Immediately, the noisy military field became as cold as an empty mountain.
Everyone’s eyes were filled with solemnity.
The hall master said slowly, “Everyone, it’s not important. It’s just an investigation, not a direct battle. Moreover, based on our understanding, the enemy is very few in number. There are less than ten of them. Your mission is to determine if there is a large force other than ten of them.”
“As long as the mission is successfully completed, when we return this time, we will be promoted by an additional two levels of disciples.”
The moment these words were said, the many warriors heaved a sigh of relief and turned to look forward to it.
Many of them were seven-star disciples. Once they obtained two levels, they would become the highest level nine-star disciples.
As for the eight-star disciples and even the nine-star disciples, they were even more excited.
If they were given two levels of promotion, they could be promoted to the level of Vice Hall Master in one go.
And the military preparation hall could not accommodate an extra vice hall master. They could take the opportunity to transfer out and head to another hall.
This made many high-level disciples eager to give it a try, their spirits soaring.
Only Su Yu looked on coldly, disapproving.
Was It really that easy?
From the conversation between the Hall Master and the Vice Hall Master that day, it was obvious that it was not.
He was too lazy to get involved in this mess.
“Due to the danger of the mission, I have decided to send the sun, moon, and stars who are in the top nine and last place in this competition to participate.”
Upon hearing this, the entire stadium was filled with regret and sighs.
If they were willing to work harder in the competition, they might have a chance to enter the top ten.
Su Yu heaved a sigh of relief. At least he was safe.
He withdrew from the hundred horse track in time. He was not inferior to the top ten team members, so he could avoid this disaster.
However, to Su Yu’s surprise, the hall master added, “In addition, I will add an additional person.”
Who?
Why would he add an additional person? Could it be that the other party was very special?
“That is the new five-star disciple, Su Yu.”The hall master smiled and said to Su Yu, clapping. “Congratulations, you have obtained the qualification to go to the border to carry out a mission.”
Su Yu was not the least bit happy.
He even had the urge to hit someone.
He had kept such a low profile, and it was not easy for him to get rid of the top ten group members. How could he suddenly be called by the Hall master personally?
Suddenly, he noticed that the sun, moon, and star group members where Sun Zhongtian was were all casting a vague glance at him.
He instantly understood.
It should be because the hall master had just called the three of them to talk behind the scenes and learned about many things that had happened on the snow peak.
The reason why the Qiankun group was so powerful was because of Su Yu.
That was why the hall master had given Su Yu an extra light treatment and would never let him, this potential outstanding warrior, go.
“According to the information I have, Su Yu’s performance in the match was extremely outstanding, far surpassing any other warrior. Therefore, I have given him an extra special reward -- to raise the level of a level one disciple, and at the same time, he has been rewarded with a thousand time crystals.”
This was equivalent to the sum of the rewards for first and second place.
What?
Instantly, the crowd became excited.
“On what basis? It’s not fair!”
“He didn’t even get a single divine fire token. On what basis did he get a special reward?”
Even Hundred Lotus Heart and heavenly spirit path were so jealous that their eyes turned red.
They absolutely could not accept that Su Yu, the guy who had dragged them back, had instead gotten a reward that was far better than theirs.
The hall master pressed down with his palm, and a powerful pressure suppressed the sounds of resistance from the entire place. He said solemnly, “Why? Just based on the divine fire tokens he has on him, he has twice as many as any other group present!”
“Absorb!”
The hall master grabbed at the air, and the thirteen divine fire tokens that Su Yu had hidden in his spatial storage device actually sensed something. He forcefully broke free from the storage device and flew out, floating above Su Yu’s head.
“Thirteen?”
“How did he get them?”
“That shouldn’t be the case. Just finding the thirteen puppets would take more than half the time. How would he have time to battle with the puppets and defeat them all? Unless the puppets can’t even withstand a single blow from him.”
However, this possibility was extremely slim.
Everyone discussed animatedly, and the hall master said sternly, “The competition has never been about methods, only the results. Since he got so many divine fire tokens, it’s enough to show how outstanding his ability is. That’s why he’s given a special reward.”
As such, everyone was indignant, but it was hard to refute.
They could only watch as Su Yu’s 5-star disciple token turned into a 6-star disciple token.
At the same time, he received a thousand time crystals.
“Warriors who have been selected, you have three days to prepare. Three days later, you will set off on time!”The hall master waved his sleeve and announced the investigation operation three days later.
Everyone dispersed.
Su Yu also left in a hurry. However, it was clear that some people were unwilling to let the matter rest.
“Su Yu, you are sincerely making things difficult for us, aren’t you?”Bai Lian’s heart was filled with anger.
Since Su Yu, who was also in the same group, had obtained so many divine fire tokens, why did he hide them and not come out?
It caused them to lose the first place.
Heavenly Spirit Path’s eyes were filled with lightning as he berated, “Su Yu, give me a reason why you hid the divine fire tokens.”
Su Yu was not in a good mood when they were angry.
He was already in a bad mood when he was called on to carry out a dangerous mission for no reason.
Being entangled by the two again, he decided to shed all pretense of cordiality and said indifferently, “You keep talking about the human race and the leftovers. You keep saying that you look down on the human race. Why should I help you?”
Su Yu was patient enough with them.
“Don’t challenge my bottom line again!”Su Yu warned lightly and left with his hands behind his back.
Bai Lianxin and Tian Lingdao were both angry and angry.
“Lowly human, what right do you have to be angry at me?”Bai Lianxin’s eyes were full of anger.
Tian Lingdao’s eyes also turned cold. “I said that he would die without knowing how he died on the battlefield!”
Su Yu returned to the military preparation hall and came to his cave abode.
His eyeballs changed several times. Su Yu took out an iron ring.
The iron ring was left behind after the death of the evil loose cultivator that day. There was also a token engraved with the word ‘space-time’.
This iron ring was quite mysterious. Su Yu hadn’t fully comprehended it yet.
He tried again but failed to discover the profoundness of the iron ring. Su Yu threw it into his spatial storage.
At the same time, he waved his hand.
A hundred-jin nine darkness crystal appeared in front of him.
There was a skull-sized creature inside.
Su Yu had to increase his life-saving items as much as possible for this mission at the border.
Apart from the eight domains that he could only use as a last resort, he should also prepare other methods just in case.
Su Yu held a special tool in his hand and slashed down fiercely, splitting the nine darkness crystal into two halves, revealing the sealed creature inside.
That creature had no life characteristics and was already dead.
He tried to study this beast, but just as his fingers were about to touch it, he suddenly felt a sense of foreboding, and a powerful danger descended without warning.
Su Yu didn’t even think about it and instantly used his spatial domain to move away from the cave abode.
Just as he left, a burst of jade light suddenly shone brightly within his cave abode. It was incomparably resplendent.
Then, it quickly dimmed.
Su Yu’s pupils contracted fiercely, “That is... The Nine Netherworld Green Flame?”
How could he forget the terrifying green flame that he encountered in the depths of the abandoned mine?
The Majestic Xuan Dao Master Level Qin Yuan’s soul was completely incinerated by the Green Flame on the spot, and he couldn’t be any more dead.
But how did that flame appear in his secret chamber?
“It’s that creature?”Su Yu was incomparably shocked.
After waiting for a long time and confirming that there was no more jade flame in the secret chamber, he carefully returned to the secret chamber.
He checked the creature again.
The creature’s body was shriveled. There was not even a trace of flesh and blood left. Only a skinny corpse was left.
However, the corpse’s bones faintly showed a faint dark green color.
There was still a large amount of nine nether jade flame in its body!
Su Yu immediately felt that it was troublesome.
What was the use of this thing?
He couldn’t even touch it, and it had no value in itself.
He didn’t understand why someone would sell this nine nether jade crystal at such a high price.
Just when he didn’t know what to do with the corpse, the little qilin suddenly jumped out. It sniffed continuously and said, “What is it? It seems to be very fragrant.”
After a moment of silence, it stared at the corpse. Its eyes shot out a bright jade light. “Master, what is this thing? It seems to be very delicious.”
Su Yu’s eyes flashed. “You dare to eat it? Don’t blame me for not warning you. There is a rather dangerous green fire hidden in this corpse.”
“I think I should be able to eat it.”The little qilin rolled its eyes as if it was afraid that Su Yu would go back on his word. It pounced on the corpse and swallowed it.
Su Yu was shocked. “Aren’t you afraid of being poisoned to death?”
Cough --
The little qilin burped and rubbed his swollen belly. “I’m a little stuffed.”
Then, the little qilin suddenly fell to the ground. His belly was facing the sky and his limbs were twitching.
It looked like he was going to die.
Su Yu’s heart sank. He immediately went forward and prepared to use his domain to forcefully pull out the corpse.
However, the little qilin suddenly turned around nimbly and laughed loudly while holding his stomach. “Look at how scared you are!”
It turned out that it was deliberately teasing Su Yu.
At this moment, Su Yu’s forehead was filled with black lines. He went forward and gave it a kick.
The little qilin with its round belly bounced back and forth in the secret chamber.
The little qilin that was smashed into a mess just now surrendered. “Stop hitting me. It wasn’t easy to digest it, but you’re going to beat it out again.”
As if responding to its own words, it could not help but burp again.
However, that burp actually carried a faint wisp of nine Nether Jade Flame!
Fortunately, Su Yu’s reaction was very fast, and he quickly dodged.
Otherwise, if this wisp of flame invaded his soul, the consequences would be extremely terrible.
“You Can Digest Nine Nether Jade Flame?”Su Yu said in surprise.
The Little Qilin was stunned. “Nine Nether Jade Flame? You Mean This?”
It shook its chubby body, and a layer of jade-green flame emerged from its scales, dyeing the purple flame a pale green.
Su Yu’s expression changed drastically.
Tomorrow at the fifth watch.
