Chapter 278
Seeing the other party's tough attitude, Xing Bai hurriedly stepped forward and explained with a bow: "Fairy, please understand. We have just experienced a great battle, fighting against the terrible Greedy Wind from Outside the Territory. Although we succeeded in destroying it in the end, it is really difficult to completely dissipate this foreign aura in a short time."
The woman looked puzzled when she heard this, as if she was wondering about the reliability of Xing Bai's words.
At this time, a middle-aged woman came from behind the woman. She nodded to the leader and whispered, "What they said is correct. We just received news that an extraterritorial planet appeared in the Demon Realm. Nine little celestial beings discovered it and informed Northern Emperor Lingxu. Thanks to the timely discovery and sealing, peace was restored in the Second Heaven. There is a video here, and it is them."
The leading woman nodded slightly, her sharp eyes carefully examining the person in front of her from head to toe, and her originally tense face gradually relaxed.
She opened her red lips and said slowly, "So that's how it is. If that's the case, then you can leave. But I have to kindly remind you that there is an extremely strange illusion array about a hundred miles ahead. If you don't want to be trapped in it and unable to escape, don't enter it by mistake."
After Gu Shihan led everyone to thank the woman, they did not dare to delay for a moment, fearing that something unexpected would happen.
A few people bypassed the territory of the Ice and Snow Clan, and then continued to move forward along the predetermined route.
In fact, Gu Shihan and his companions knew very well that this second world was full of dangers, and every step might hide unexpected and fatal threats.
In order to improve their own strength, they cannot retreat even if the road ahead is full of difficulties and dangers, and must move forward firmly.
At this moment, without any warning, Gu Shihan felt her heart suddenly beat violently, as if an invisible big hand suddenly tightly grasped her heart, making her feel an indescribable feeling of suffocation.
An extremely strong feeling of dizziness came over her like an overwhelming tidal wave, sweeping over her entire body in an instant, making her eyes suddenly go dark. Her body shook uncontrollably, and she almost stumbled and fell to the ground.
Duan Siqi on the side quickly supported her, with a worried look on her face, "Shi Han, what's wrong with you?!"
Gu Shihan had no energy to respond. She was extremely shocked. The task panel that had long been buried in the deepest part of her memory and was almost completely forgotten suddenly appeared in front of her without any warning at this moment.
"Ding Dong!" A crisp reminder sound was like a thunderous explosion that exploded in Gu Shihan's ears and continued to echo for a long time.
Gu Shihan was flustered for a moment, his heart beat faster involuntarily, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
He frowned subconsciously, stretched out his slightly trembling fingers, pointed lightly at the void, and opened the task panel.
After seeing clearly what was displayed on it, she was completely stunned.
On the task panel, the areas that originally recorded various attribute data had disappeared, and in their place was a clear and unquestionable task instruction - "Collect ten phantom crystals! Find the phantom clan within three years, or they will be killed!"
Every word seemed to be written in blood, exuding a chilling chill that made people shudder.
Gu Shihan bit her lips tightly, her face turned pale, and she was very nervous.
This was the first time since the task panel appeared that she felt unable to control herself.
What was that feeling? She couldn't explain it, but it was just the uncontrollable feeling of panic, heartbeat, and tiredness.
Gu Shihan murmured to himself: "Collect ten phantom crystals and the phantom spirit clan... There is only three years left. If you fail to complete it, you will be killed..." His voice became lower and lower, and it was almost inaudible in the end.
Shi Qinghan, who was standing by, was puzzled when he saw her like this, and asked quickly, "Sister, what are you talking about? What exactly is a phantom crystal? What is a phantom spirit? And what does annihilation mean?"
Gu Shihan took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner anxiety, raised his head, looked at Shi Qinghan, smiled bitterly, shook his head, sighed and said: "To be honest, I have always had a secret. I have a strange task panel.
It's just that it hasn't appeared in all these years, and I almost forgot about it. I didn't expect it to suddenly appear today, and bring such a nonsensical task. Where can I find the phantom crystal?"
"Junior sister, task panel? We haven't heard you talk about it before. Is there something difficult? Is it tricky? Tell us, we will analyze it together, there is strength in numbers." Mo Yu asked with concern.
"Well, it's a bit tricky. The previous missions were easy to complete, so you don't know. But this time it's a bit difficult? Have you heard of phantom crystals? I need to collect ten phantom crystals, find the phantom clan, and save the phantom clan, otherwise I will be killed by this mission in three years!"
"What? Killing? What kind of weird mission is this! Shi Han, what should we do? How did you encounter such a weird situation?" Duan Siqi shouted with astonishment on her face.
Gu Shihan frowned and responded with a worried look on his face: "I just found out about this mission, and now I really have no idea where to start. But for now, it seems that we can only look for clues about the phantom crystal first."
Situ Tinglang quickly comforted him, "Shi Han, don't be too anxious. You are not alone in this matter. Don't forget that we are all here. We can act separately and go in multiple directions to find out relevant information together. After all, we are a family, and your business is naturally the business of all of us."
Gu Jiahui on the side also quickly agreed, "That's right, we can definitely solve the problem if we work together. But before that, let's first figure out what this phantom crystal is.
Shi Han, you should check the task panel carefully to see if there are any more useful tips. In addition, isn't Xing Bai a nine-tailed fox? It belongs to the spirit race, and maybe it knows something about the inside story. "
Gu Shihan nodded, turned his gaze to the task panel again and studied it carefully.
After a while, she softly read out the content displayed on the panel and began to explain: "The phantom crystal often appears in deep places full of obstacles, or hides in the bodies of certain spiritual creatures. The place where it may appear is the mysterious misty forest..."
