Facing the rising sun, I squinted my eyes subconsciously.
Looking at the people coming and going around him, Zheng Cheng felt as if he was in another world.
"Damn... I'm almost ruined. Is that woman sure she's a priest and not a succubus?"
"I didn't even get any sleep the whole night. If it weren't for the adrenaline-stimulating technique, I really wouldn't have been able to kill her..."
He opened his personal attribute panel and checked it, and found that he only had about ten points of spirit left, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Damn it, she keeps sucking, transforming my spirit into holy light fire and then uses the clarity potion to recover and continue sucking."
"As the saying goes, only an ox that dies of exhaustion can plow the land to ruin it. The ancients were right."
"But fortunately, the rank-breaking mission was completed, and my level was raised to LV59 due to the accumulated experience."
"I have learned new skills, and there are new rank-breaking tasks. As long as..."
"Zheng Cheng!"
As he was muttering, Zhao Yunxiao, who was not far from the door, was waving at him.
He subconsciously straightened his back, walked over with a normal expression and said, "Sister Yunxiao."
"Well, are we done? Let's go, everyone else is ready, now only you are missing... hm?"
Zhao Yunxiao, who was about to take Zheng Cheng away, suddenly stopped, turned around and looked Zheng Cheng up and down, his nose twitched slightly, his brows slightly frowned, and asked: "What's the smell on you?"
"What smell?"
Zheng Cheng was shocked. What do you think? I have already taken a shower.
Last night it was first in the hot spring, then on the floor, on the table, on the sofa, and on the bed, then on the floor, on the sofa, and on the table again, and finally in the hot spring again.
You can still smell it after soaking for so long, are you sure you are not a reincarnated member of the Wolf clan? "No!"
Zhao Yunxiao suddenly reached out and grabbed Zheng Cheng by the collar and tried to lift him up, but when he tried hard he found that he couldn't lift him up. He could only move closer and smell him hard.
“What are you doing…Sister Yunxiao, what are you doing…”
Zheng Cheng subconsciously tilted his head back and held Zhao Yunxiao's shoulders with both hands, signaling her not to be impulsive.
People passing by were pointing and talking in low voices.
"What are those two doing?"
"What a loving couple."
"What a ridiculous love story! It's obviously the wife checking up on him..."
"Zundu fake du?"
After a few breaths, Zhao Yunxiao suddenly raised his head and said viciously: "You smell like that vixen... She slept with you!"
"How dare you slander someone's innocence out of thin air!"
"snort!"
Zhao Yunxiao gritted his teeth and said, "My nose is very sensitive!"
"And I'm very familiar with the smell of this little vixen Song Zeqian, it can't be fake!"
"She must have slept with you... Damn little vixen, how dare you steal my person...!"
"ah……!!!"
She screamed and immediately walked towards the Holy Light Church.
As she walked, she stretched out her hand and grabbed into the air, and the silver spear immediately fell into her hand.
The silver armor also emitted a silver-white light, wrapping around her tall body.
The several paladins guarding the entrance of the Holy Light Church clearly sensed that something was wrong with Zhao Yunxiao and hurried over to him.
"Miss, what are you doing? Put down your gun!"
"Miss, this is the Holy Light Church. You are still young, don't go down the path of crime!"
"ah……!"
Zhao Yunxiao thrust out with his spear, easily knocking down the paladins, and strode in.
"Song Zeqian! Get out here!"
"ah!"
"Someone broke into the Holy Light Church! Hurry and report to the Holy Knights..."
"Hurry up and notify the night watchman...ah!"
"Bang!"
For a moment, the Holy Light Church was in chaos, and most people were fleeing in all directions.
There were also a few professionals who boasted of their strength and wanted to come out to stop Zhao Yunxiao, but they were easily knocked away by her.
Zheng Cheng outside the door also looked inside with a strange look on his face.
"Xiao Qing~"
Zheng Cheng called out Xiaoqing, but found that Xiaoqing's body was slightly red, but he didn't care.
"Hurry, hurry and follow Sister Yunxiao. Don't let her get hurt."
"snort!"
Xiaoqing glared at Zheng Cheng fiercely, but still followed him with a pout.
Zheng Cheng was puzzled. What happened to Xiaoqing? Fortunately, this was inside the imperial capital, and no one dared to act wildly here. Therefore, the Paladins guarding here were not very strong. They were just used to fill the scene, or their level strength was only below LV69.
So Zhao Yunxiao, with his gun, was like a tiger among a flock of sheep, and he easily killed the high-level officials.
"Song Zeqian! Come out here!"
"You dare to do it but not take the responsibility, right?"
"Believe it or not, I will tell you all the ugly things you have done...!"
"It's Captain Zhao! Captain Yunxiao, it's me, we have met before..."
Someone in the Holy Light Church recognized Zhao Yunxiao and quickly stopped her.
"Is it you? Where's Song Zeqian? Ask her to come out and see me!"
"Bishop Song?" The visitor asked in surprise, "She left the church early this morning and said that she had applied to go to the alien battlefield..."
"How is this possible! She has been in seclusion in the Holy Light Church for five years. How could she go to the alien battlefield? Get her out!"
"I'm telling the truth...bang...ah!"
Listening to the chaos and noise inside, Zheng Cheng could only clasp his hands together and pray silently for the people inside.
"I didn't expect Sister Yunxiao to have such a violent side, or should I say..."
Zheng Cheng's eyes lit up slightly, and he thought of something.
"Forget it... I'm still weak now. Sister Yunxiao is definitely more difficult to deal with than Song Zeqian. I'd better improve my strength first..."
He thought about it and opened the personal attribute panel again.
Breakthrough task.
The new LV59 breakthrough task has been formed.
[Level Breaking Mission: Killing the Evil]
[Mission Description: As a pastor, your mission is to save lives, spread light, and also to destroy evil. ]
[Task requirements: You need to rely on your own skills and abilities to kill evil things. You will be judged based on the number, quality, and level of the evil things you kill. The more evil things you kill, the better the quality, and the higher the level, the higher the skill effect and quality you will get after completing the rank-breaking task.]
[Note: Evil things are creatures with dark attributes, brutal, cruel and bloodthirsty personalities, including but not limited to undead creatures, dark creatures, demons, ghosts, dead souls, etc.]
"this……"
"It's somewhat similar to the level-breaking quest 'Gods Also Have Fire' at level 39."
"But one is to kill aliens, and the other is to kill evil things."
"It just so happens that we are going to a secret realm of darkness to level up. I wonder if the dark creatures there are considered evil."
"Also, after completing the LV49 breakthrough mission, I also learned two new mutation skills."
His mind moved, and the skill tree in his mind began to flicker.
On the endless skill tree, the divinity of death is still flashing bright black light.
There are two skill icons wrapped in strange patterns, tightly entangled on the skill tree and the divinity of death.
The first skill icon is light blue, and the pattern looks like a human brain with dots of lines wrapped around it.
[Alzheimer's Forgetfulness (Internal/LV1): Mutation skill, casting range 10 meters, can make the target forget or misremember the skills they have mastered in a short period of time (depending on the target's magic defense). If the skills they master are spiritual or elemental skills such as magic, divine arts, witchcraft, etc., it can cause magic backlash effects on them.]
"Alzheimer's Forgetfulness... Isn't this just a mandatory debuff skill like Silence or Forgetfulness? It can make the target forget the current skill."
"And there's a backlash effect... it's really too cruel!"
"Unfortunately, the casting range is a bit too short. I can only approach the opponent... I hope the casting range can be farther after the upgrade."
After hearing the voices in the Holy Light Church becoming increasingly quiet, Zheng Cheng realized that Zhao Yunxiao must have been persuaded to stay.
After all, it is the Holy Light Church, the holy place of all the priests in Xia Country. How could it not have a strong guard force? Taking advantage of this time, Zheng Cheng looked at the second mutation skill.
[Ultimate Body (External/LV1): After years of overload training and integration with nature, your body and mind have reached a state of complete control over every part of your body. Your mind is calm, free of distractions, and you return to yourself. Your body and consciousness are separated, allowing each part of your body to transcend instinct to perceive the danger around you, without the need for the brain to think first, maximizing your movement speed and reaction ability.]
"This thing... Dragon Ball? Son Goku?"
Zheng Cheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. How did he get this mutant skill? It's completely for close combat! I'm a priest, and you want me to fight with others with fists as big as sandbags? This style is wrong! Forget it, it's better than nothing.
Moreover, the body of extreme freedom is indeed more useful in some aspects.
After a long while, Zhao Yunxiao walked out angrily and saw Zheng Cheng looking at him.
“You… come here!”
"Hey Sister Yunxiao~"
Zheng Cheng ran over quickly and asked with concern: "Sister Yunxiao, are you okay? Did they do anything to you?"
Zhao Yunxiao laughed in anger and said, "Why, do you still hope that something happens to me?"
"How is that possible..."
"Tell me the truth, what happened last night?"
"Uh... do you really want to know?"
Zhao Yunxiao gritted his teeth and said, "Speak!"
"It's like this, I..."
"Talk as we walk!"
"Alas." Zheng Cheng hurriedly followed, and said embarrassedly: "Sister Yunxiao, you know me. The reason why I stayed here is entirely based on the concept of serving the seniors and helping the seniors break through. Who knew that she would covet my body!"
"Sister Yunxiao, you have no idea how miserable I was last night. Not only were my legs weak, but my kidneys were almost broken!"
"Also, she kept asking me to release the Holy Light Fire for her to absorb. I was almost drained dry. She also gave me a lot of medicine..."
The more he spoke, the lower his voice became, because Zheng Cheng found that Zhao Yunxiao's head was almost smoking.
"Uh... Sister Yunxiao, are you okay?"
"call……"
Zhao Yunxiao took a deep breath, turned around and said, "I'm fine!"
"Hurry up and get ready to enter the secret realm! If you dare to associate with that vixen again, I'll castrate you!"
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything, I won't say anything..."
Under Zhao Yunxiao's 'supervision', Zheng Cheng obediently returned to school.
After a few days of rest and preparation, they all adjusted their condition to the highest level.
At the same time, the five people who were preparing to enter the secret realm to level up all broke through to LV59.
After all, so many magical beasts were killed in the blessed land of spirits, and everyone gained a huge amount of soul power.
Cheng Zheng, Zhixue Yao, Xinyu Zhou, Xiabing Cui, and Poppy Zi.
These five people are the main team members for this expedition to the new secret realm.
The apparent configuration is three assistants, one melee output and one ranged output, but among these three assistants, whether it is Zheng Cheng, Cui Xiabing, or Purple Poppy, they all have strong strength.
Escorted by a small team of night watchmen led by Zhao Yunxiao, the few of them set out for the secret realm.
Zhao Yunxiao took out some information and distributed it to everyone.
"This secret realm is located at the foot of the Mang Mountain in the north and south of the imperial capital. During the catastrophe more than 300 years ago, the Mang Mountain in the north was the main invasion site of the Ghost Clan, one of the myriad clans in the heavens."
"The Ghost Clan is ranked 236th among all the clans in the heavens. It is a subsidiary clan of the Ghost Clan, which is ranked ninth among all the clans in the heavens."
"The tribe is invisible and intangible, and is best at bewitching people, absorbing human essence, and controlling will-o'-the-wisp power."
"In order to resist the Ghost Clan, we lost countless ancestors before we drove them out of Beimang Mountain, and then sealed them away in the 'underground cave' on the alien battlefield."
"As for the underground cave, it is a small alien battlefield, connected to the 'underground cave', one of the three major alien battlefields."
"You will go there if you have the chance in the future."
Having said this, Zhao Yunxiao paused for a moment, waiting for other people to ask questions.
As expected, Cui Xiabing raised his hand and said, "Captain Zhao, according to the regional division and the principle of our attributes' mutual restraint, the newly discovered secret realm should be a secret realm of darkness and immortality. Is it related to Beimang Mountain and the Ghost Clan?"
"All I can say is...it's possible."
Zhao Yunxiao nodded and said, "In order to ensure the safety and integrity of the secret realm, we did not send anyone in to check it out after we discovered it."
"At the back of the document, there is some basic information about this secret realm. You can check it out."
After hearing this, several people immediately turned to the last page of the information.
Sure enough, the last page of the information contained a picture.
A faint blue entrance to a secret realm is located in the center, emitting a faint blue light, like a pupil.
[Secret Realm: Black Mountain Ghost Town]
[Level: LV59 (only LV59 and below professionals can enter)]
[Number of people entering: 5]
[Difficulty: Hell]
[Explanation: Heishan was originally an ordinary city, but one day after the villagers drank the water from the river, they turned into very aggressive monsters, which spread throughout Heishan like a plague. Three months later, Heishan became a dead city.]
[Main Mission 1: Find out the main cause of the Black Mountain incident.]
[Main Mission 2: Eliminate the source of ghosts in Black Mountain City. ]
[Mission Description: After the plague, the villagers of Black Mountain City have all turned into immortal ghosts, wandering around Black Mountain City all day long, unable to rest. The culprit who caused all this seems to be hiding behind Black Mountain City. Find him and kill him! ]
"Black Mountain City... City?"
Zheng Cheng looked up suddenly and said in surprise: "An entire city has become a ghost town? Doesn't that mean we have to face at least tens of thousands, or even more than a hundred thousand ghosts!"
Zhao Yunxiao hesitated for a moment, but still nodded and said, "After preliminary calculations, this is what I think."
"Since it can be called a city, even if it is just the smallest urn city, there will be 30,000 to 40,000 people living in it."
"You must be careful in this secret realm."
"If anything unexpected happens, leave the secret realm immediately!" (End of this chapter)
