Chapter 90
"...Thank you very much."
The wolf shadow was startled for a moment, then an unusually human smile appeared on his face.
"All along, we have known Jiamu... What's your name? I will definitely write you into my travel diary in the future, and make you and the Cretaceous Immortal King famous all over the country!"
Chu Zhongyuan still spoke jokingly in that unnaturally relaxed voice when he said goodbye.
It did shatter some of the sadness at the moment.
"…Inn."
The wolf's shadow completely shattered in the laughter, leaving only two words.
"Life is like an inn, and I am a traveler. You often recite this poem, so I will be called Ni Lu!"
In the distant past that even Shochiku could not see, the young wolf king once said this to his friend with a smile.
In the last second before it dispersed, the tribe that gave birth to it was quietly wandering on the snowfield. The shadows of a pack of wolves rushed towards him, recognized him as their king, but then faded away, and finally turned into the Cretaceous Immortal King in green clothes and a straw raincoat among the bloody corpses of the wolves, who saved him from the hands of the evil spirits and reached out to him.
"Will you come with me? I need a travel companion for my journey."
"OK."
At the last moment of his death, when his consciousness faded away, Wolf Shadow smiled and stretched out his claws to the Immortal King.
But he was a wolf, and in the end he just opened his mouth like a puppy acting coquettishly.
He finally closed his eyes in peace.
At the moment when the wolf's shadow disappeared, the thin surface of water that originally reflected the sky became inverted with the sky. In an instant, the sea and the sky were replaced, the sky became like crystal, and there was nothing under their feet.
In the emptiness and confusion, there was the faint sound of bells mixed with the howling of wolves.
After first hearing about the Snowy Holy Tomb XI guarded by the Level 5 Mysterious Wolf King, Gu Qingming once asked Cao Sheng, what kind of place is the Snowy Holy Tomb XI?
Cao Sheng thought for a moment and said, "This kind of thing is too personal. I think the answer to this question is best to wait until you grow up a little bit and see it with your own eyes."
But I didn't expect that accidents would happen one after another, and this one happened so quickly.
but……
Gu Qingming closed his eyes and let himself sink into the mirage-like sky.
He now had the answer to that question.
If someone asked him what Snowland Holy Tomb XI was like, he would answer that it was made up of crystal, half twilight, a light lake like a sky mirror, and the confusing dreams of travelers.
Well, plus a promise that lasted four hundred years, as long as the eternal snow-capped mountains.
Gu Qingming opened his eyes again. The experience of Snowy Holy Tomb XI had now turned into an unshakable tenacity in his eyes. The best way to grow is to experience stories.
Luo Dong and Zheng Qiuji anxiously asked about the two's condition. Lin Yuan was relieved to see the three of them wake up. He shrunk the crystal brush in his hand and inserted it back into the hairband that fixed his long hair.
Gu Qingming vaguely discerned that they seemed to be in the CPA camp.
However, the location of the camp should have changed. The opening time of Snowland Holy Tomb IX has ended, the secret realm has been closed, and they were all teleported out.
Gu Qingming tilted his head slightly and looked into the distance as if guided by fate.
As the dim sunlight passed by, the misty and majestic snow-capped mountains appeared magnificently before his eyes. Above the white snow, the sun was shining brightly, sacred and peaceful, which made people's souls transparent and purified.
Behind the snow-capped mountains, the blue sky is so blue that it seems almost within reach.
This is the place closest to the sky. Gu Qingming had never understood this so deeply.
After seeing that Gu Qingming was fine, Luo Dong quickly picked up his phone and started taking pictures of the beautiful scenery in front of him. As a landscape photography enthusiast, he would never miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
That is the magnificent view that thousands of photographers dream of, a magical creation of nature.
It is a paradise of light and shadow.
Thousands of feet of golden light descended from the sky and shone on the top of the snow-capped mountain, like a golden palace.
The sun shines on the Golden Mountain, illuminating the southern sky.
But that's it.
Although they survived the disaster, there was still an even more dangerous road ahead. Without even having time to rest, everyone hurriedly began to scan the surroundings and arrest the Ceope members who were also kicked out of the secret realm.
Jiang Lanye has already captured dozens of Ceopes with the support team gathered outside the secret realm. He is now worried about how to transport so many criminals back to the headquarters to be tried by the Themis Law Society.
With Jiang Lanye, a psychic, relying on his ability to drive corpses, he single-handedly encircled and suppressed Ceobe. This time, the CPA ambush team reaped great rewards and successfully wiped out countless CPA forces. Unfortunately, those high-level wanted criminals at the top of the arrest list ran away too fast. They had been wandering outside for many years and had more or less some capital to save their lives.
But even so, every senior executive was more or less injured. The worst-case scenario was that one of the senior executives was almost paralyzed, and he escaped only by relying on the space-based supernatural power condensate that had been positioned long ago.
"But at least I have used up all their spatial energy condensates."
Jiang Lanye curled his black hair and said reluctantly.
However, Cao Sheng was not discouraged by the result. If those high-ranking officials were so easy to catch, they would not be on the CPA wanted list. He was just secretly thinking about what he needed to be vigilant about next.
The Wood Talisman and the previously lost Gold Talisman are with Ceobe's boss, while the Water Talisman, Fire Talisman, and Earth Talisman are all in CPA's hands.
If Ceobe's boss still persists in his delusions, the only place they will fight to the death before being caught is the underworld.
The place where everything began in that file, the source of the disaster four hundred years ago.
Cao Sheng frowned and patted his shoulder with a hand wearing a bracelet with five copper coins, as if to comfort him.
"You know, every time I look at you I feel like my life is about to be shortened. You should relax a little bit. If you keep tense, the enemy won't die on their own. Instead, they will..."
Lin Yuan appeared beside Cao Sheng with a serious expression.
"Did you...overuse your powers again?"
"...When I saw the boss principal's face, I couldn't help myself and blew him up. It was just a casual thing."
Cao Sheng waved his hands, nonchalantly, but his expression was not looking good, making his words seem unreliable.
"...You dare to do this when most of your power is used to seal the seal of the underworld. You are really amazing, the next president of the Monarch Research Association."
Lin Yuan shook his head, as if he was finally convinced.
"But being stubborn is not a good thing. Let's see how long you can keep being stubborn. Why don't you let me--"
"impossible."
Cao Sheng interrupted Lin Yuan.
"I am a monarch-level psychic of CPA, Sister Nanfeng... their departure is closely related to Ceob's boss. I must personally figure out everything. Moreover, the president entrusted Ceob's affairs to me because he trusted me."
Cao Sheng turned the topic around dryly.
"And...and, no matter how powerful that boss is, no matter how terrifying his seventh-level mystery is, it still does not exceed the responsibility of the CPA and cannot be handed over to the Volunteer Association and the Night Watch Association."
Cao Sheng sighed.
Lin Yuan nodded to show his understanding. Rather, he would have found it strange if Cao Sheng, who had been confirmed as the next president of the association, had chosen his direct help.
Although due to the strange increase in the concentration of mystery in recent years, the monarchs and high-level psychics of CPA have been very busy, the association has been fighting for a long time and barely squeezed out three high-end combat forces, Cao Sheng, Lu Ze, and Jiang Lanye, to deal with Keobe's affairs.
However, the Three Guards had signed an agreement when they were established, which defined the range of mysterious intensity that each official organization had to deal with. Even if Ceobe's boss was the seventh-level mystery that escaped four hundred years ago, it did not exceed the processing limit of CPA. It was absolutely impossible for CPA to show weakness in front of the other two organizations because of Cao Sheng's half of himself.
"Besides...it's not easy for you either, right?"
Cao Sheng sighed as he recalled that Lin Yuan’s figure was even more confusing than the busiest CPA specialists.
The Volunteer Association is different from CPA. CPA is busy because it faces many complicated things, while the combat-crazed people in the Volunteer Association face the most dangerous mysteries on the planet.
Or it can no longer be called mysterious, but divine.
The concentration of mystery has increased abnormally in recent years. Every organization is extremely busy, and they wish they could split each person in half. Handling their own affairs well is the best support for other hard workers.
"…Thank you for your understanding."
The corners of Lin Yuan's mouth curled up under the fox mask. He understood Cao Sheng's concerns and determination, so he no longer doubted it.
not to mention……
And there are Cao Sheng’s group of students who are best at creating miracles.
"But now...you should think about how to explain it to your students. I think they saw a lot in the secret realm."
Lin Yuan blinked, turned around and used the water escape technique to disperse.
"Teacher Cao Sheng..."
Gu Qingming and Chu Zhongyuan appeared behind Cao Sheng, seeming to want to say something but stopping themselves.
"It's okay, just ask."
Cao Sheng waved his hands and returned to his lazy look.
"...We roughly know the problem about the underworld."
Gu Qingming looked a little serious. The strangeness of the underworld had been rumored in CPA for a long time, but it was clarified by the top management every time and finally came to nothing, becoming an urban legend among urban legends.
However, Wolf Shadow's words and memories, and Boss Ceobe confirmed each other, and the current situation in the underworld, the place of reincarnation in the East C area, was definitely not good.
Chu Zhongyuan saw endless blood in his memory. According to the tragic scene in his memory, even if the Cretaceous Immortal King sealed the opened Gate of Nine Abyss with his own body, the terrible shock also destroyed a large area of the sea of red spider lilies and turned the Wangchuan River into a fluorescent sea of light.
If the Gate of Nine Abysses is opened again, the resentful souls will overflow from it. Even if CPA can stabilize the surface, half of the secret space of the underworld will be destroyed.
"You already know..."
Cao Sheng shook his head, as if he knew what they wanted to say.
"But I still suggest that you don't get involved. It's too early for you to get involved. We adults are here to take care of it."
"Can--"
As soon as Chu Zhongyuan opened his mouth, Gu Qingming showed a look of disapproval, but he saw the other party suddenly blinked playfully.
"Well, whatever you do, make your own decision. After all, I'm just making a suggestion. It's good that you make your own choice."
"After all, young people should be brave enough to try new things."
He had long thought that Gu Qingming and Chu Zhongyuan would sooner or later be involved in the problems of the underworld because of their supernatural powers, but when he really faced that day, he was still a little unwilling.
But after all, he is his student. No matter what happens, the teacher is there.
Cao Sheng added in his heart.
