"What? You still want to repay kindness with enmity? We don't bother with you, but you still want to chat us up? You even invited us to drink. Your way of chatting us up is too old-fashioned. Men thirty years ago didn't use such excuses." Bai Ying complained.
"There's no need to apologize, but you have to be more careful next time. It would be bad if you really hurt someone." Li Qingyi said after looking at the King of the Void Realm.
"I promise that something like this will never happen again." Li Zheng said seriously.
"That's good." Bai Ying said as he walked over and blew out his own longevity lamp, and the two figures immediately disappeared.
"That guy looks good, but his brain isn't very good." Outside the trial gate, Bai Ying said to Li Qingyi.
"Why do you say that?" Li Qingyi asked in confusion.
"Look at what he did, like a lunatic. He lay on the desert looking at the ancient city, brought a wild demon into the city, and not only did he hurt us, but he also wanted to seduce us, and he only wanted to buy us a drink. It's a nice thought." Bai Ying said with a sneer.
"That person is not simple. You also saw that the wild demon spirit could leave such a deep mark on my shield. It must be an S-level demon spirit, and not an ordinary S-level demon spirit. It must be of brilliant quality at least, or even a glorious demon spirit. It is not easy to make such a wild demon spirit obedient. He is probably here to participate in the Demon Spirit Competition. It seems that this Demon Spirit Competition is not as simple as we thought. We just don't know whether he is participating normally or coming to make trouble." Li Qingyi said thoughtfully.
"Isn't it just an ability similar to charm? We have seen it before. The fact that he can charm wild monsters to be obedient doesn't mean he has such a powerful monster ring. Wild monsters can't be brought out of the trial ground, so there is nothing to worry about. Besides, I don't think the light on that monster is very strong, so it doesn't look like it is of very high quality. I guess it just has a powerful skill." Bai Ying disagreed with Li Qingyi's opinion.
"No matter what, if you meet him in the Magic Spirit Competition, you must not be careless." Li Qingyi warned.
"I got it. If we really meet him, I will tell him to give up. As long as you give up, I will give you the contact information of my best friend with big breasts and long legs. Judging from the way he looked at you just now, he will definitely surrender immediately..." Bai Ying said with a blink.
"You're looking for death!" Li Qingyi cursed with a smile.
…
After watching them leave, Li Xiu brought the King of the Void Realm to the Underworld House. He patted the Lion's Head, and the door of the Underworld House opened immediately. A man and a demon walked in.
"Madam, a guest is coming." Li Xiu shouted after entering the room.
"So you are the new generation master of the Virtual Realm." The proprietress's voice came from the second floor. She actually knew the King of the Virtual Realm.
When the King of the Void heard the voice of the proprietress, he seemed a little reserved and said very seriously: "Madam, I would like to drink a cup of real illusion. I hope you can allow me."
"Li Xiu, make it a cup of real illusion." The proprietress said lightly.
"Thank you." The King of the Void Realm hurriedly expressed his gratitude. It seemed that he was very afraid of the proprietress.
Li Xiu thought to himself, "I don't know where the boss lady comes from. Xiaoxu seems to be very afraid of her. I can ask Xiaoxu when I leave later."
Li Xiu walked behind the bar, took out the cocktail making tools, and began to select wine from the wine cabinet.
The three kinds of wine, Eye of Truth, Mirage and Mask of Falsehood, are the main wines of Real Illusion, and there are several other auxiliary wines.
The Eye of Truth only needs one drop, and that drop of wine is like a shining tear. Although the light is not strong, it is enough to move people's hearts.
The mirage is like smoke and fog, and you can't see the true appearance of the wine when you pour it out.
There is a mask logo on the bottle of Hypocritical Mask. After opening the bottle, the light from the bottle mouth is like a strong flashlight.
The amounts of the three kinds of wine were all very small. After pouring them into the shaker, Li Xiu immediately put the lid on it and started shaking it.
The mixing method of Real and Unreal is a bit special. You need to mix three main wines first. After the three main wines are fully integrated, add other auxiliary wines as quickly as possible. Then you must drink it immediately without waiting too long.
With a flick of Li Xiu's wrist, the few drops of wine in the shaker appeared like smoke and fog, filling the entire shaker.
The wine flowed inside like smoke and mist. As the three kinds of wine continued to combine, the smoky wine became more and more viscous, just like beer that was shaken to produce foam.
The King of the Void Realm watched eagerly from the side, not daring to make a sound for fear of disturbing Li Xiu.
Li Xiu shook the shaker while feeling the energy vibration coming from it. When he felt that the three kinds of wine had been fully blended, he opened the lid with one hand and opened four bottles of wine with the other hand. At the same time, he quickly put the four bottles of wine in order without using a wine measuring vessel and poured them directly with the bottles.
Because of the time requirement, there was no time to use a wine measuring vessel, so Li Xiu could only pour it directly.
Fortunately, Li Xiu has absolute order, so even without using a wine measuring vessel, he can still make sure the amount is exactly right.
Originally, as soon as the lid was opened, the smoky wine inside began to come out, and it seemed like it was about to burst out. However, as soon as the four auxiliary wines came in, the smoky wine seemed to melt and disappeared quickly.
After all four kinds of wine were put into the pot, the smoke and haze had disappeared by almost half.
Li Xiu picked up a wine glass with his backhand, and with his other hand almost threw out the wine in it, and every drop of the wine fell into the glass.
Time is running out, and Xiaoxu must drink the wine before it disappears completely.
As soon as the wine was poured into the glass, Li Xiu pushed it towards Xiaoxu outside the bar.
The wine glass slid for a distance and stopped right in front of Xiaoxu.
Xiaoxu gritted his teeth, put his head directly into the cup, and sucked the quickly disappearing smoky wine into his stomach in one gulp.
The wine glass was empty in an instant. After Xiaoxu drank a glass of wine, he seemed to be drunk. He staggered towards the outside, opened the door with his head and crawled out.
"Why are you leaving so soon? Wait for me." Li Zhengxu wanted to chase after him but was stopped by the proprietress.
"Don't disturb it, this is the most critical time for it." said the proprietress.
"What's the most critical moment?" Li Xiu was slightly stunned.
"Alas, I really don't know how a human like you who knows nothing but cocktail recipes can achieve redemption and the illusion of reality." The proprietress paused and said, "It's going to transcend. It's either life or death. Don't disturb it."
"Is the super spirit so dangerous?" Li Xiu frowned.
"Exceeding one's own limits is inherently extremely dangerous. The higher the demon's own limits, the more dangerous it is to do such a thing. It is the new owner of the virtual world, and its upper limit is extremely high, so the risk of transcending the spirit is even higher. Otherwise, why do you think it has not transcended the spirit until now, and has to wait for this cup of real illusion. Without this cup, its chance of death may be as high as 90%. "The proprietress smiled and said, "If it weren't for you, it would have no idea how long it would have to wait. If it can survive, it will be considered to owe you a huge favor."
"What kind of place is the virtual world?" Li Xiu asked.
"You were able to find it, but you don't even know what the Void Realm is?" the proprietress asked in surprise.
"I really don't quite understand." Li Xiu didn't explain in detail.
"Back then, the King of the Virtual Realm swept across the desert, and millions of demons submitted to him and worshipped him as their king. But the virtual realm today is no longer what it used to be. It's really pitiful and sad that the King of the Virtual Realm has to rely on a cup of real virtual super spirit." The proprietress sighed.
"What on earth happened to cause the virtual world to fall to this point?" Li Xiu was quite interested in these things.
"Don't ask about things you shouldn't know. You did a good job this time. Keep looking for those demons and let them drink the demon wine. The more demons like the King of the Void Realm you find, the better." said the proprietress.
"I do want to go look for them, but where do so many evil spirits come from in this Black Death City?" Li Xiu said.
"You might as well go and have a look outside the South Gate, maybe you'll find something." said the proprietress.
"Which one is the south gate?" Li Xiu now had no idea about the direction of the Black Death City, because he didn't know which direction was south.
It's different here than the outside world. There's no rising or falling sun or moon, and no compass or anything like that. Without a reference, it's impossible to guess the direction.
"Turn left when you get out the door."
"Is it the city gate where there are ghost crying sounds outside?" Li Xiu frowned slightly.
"good."
"What's outside that door? I'm afraid I won't be able to come back if I go out, and then there will be no one working for you, the boss lady." Li Xiu had wanted to go out and take a look for a long time, but he was unwilling to risk his life. The boss lady seemed to know what was outside the door, so he could go and find out.
"There used to be a cemetery outside the city gate. I don't know what's there now." The proprietress's answer was very irresponsible.
"A cemetery? A cemetery is right outside the city gate? Isn't this a bit too far-fetched?" Li Xiu was a little unconvinced. Who would build a cemetery specifically at the city gate when building a city?
"Nine out of ten households are dead, and the rest are dying. They are almost extinct. It's good enough that we can bury them. Do you still care where you bury them?" The proprietress sneered.
"Are you talking about the original residents of Black Death City? Why did they die?" Li Xiu's curiosity grew stronger.
"I don't know." The proprietress said coldly and stopped talking.
Li Xiu asked a few more questions but got no response from the proprietress, so he had to leave the underworld.
He can now enter and exit the underworld house freely without drinking. In fact, Li Xiu wants to drink, but unfortunately he has no chance, unless other creatures give him wine, as he has already used up his own share.
Xiaoxu was no longer seen outside the door. He was probably already back in the virtual world.
"I don't know if it can successfully become a super spirit. If it succeeds, will it thank me or want to kill me?" Li Xiu decided not to go to the desert again unless he could become a super spirit.
After looking at the South Gate, Li Xiu still did not go there. Even if he wanted to go, he had to wait for the Jedi Knight's light energy to recover, and he had to take Chu Jun with him.
The harvest this time was good, a piece of super spiritual bone, an S-level brilliant magic core, and an invincible body skill. Li Xiu was quite satisfied with it.
After Blowing Out the Lantern and leaving the Black Death City, Li Xiu fed the S-level magic core to the Jedi Knight. After the Jedi Knight ate it, he showed no signs of being promoted, and no one knew how many cores were needed to be promoted to S-level.
"If we kill some of those S-level monsters in the virtual realm, it should be easy for the Jedi Knight to be promoted to S-level." This idea flashed through Li Xiu's mind, but unfortunately it was not very realistic.
The super spiritual bone was sent to Ximen Guan, who was asked to study it. Ximen Guan was very happy and said that he would study the material carefully.
Lightspeed 2 is still under construction, but it will definitely not be completed before the Magic Spirit Competition.
Li Xiu knew that Lightspeed 2 was not so easy to build, so he did not urge Ximen Guan again.
…
Meng Xiaotian has been a little depressed recently. He has been looking for a magic costumer wearing a ghost-faced magic costume for so long, but he has not found anyone.
Recently, he was sent to the City of Light to investigate some kind of magic spirit competition, which annoyed him.
Meng Xiaotian has always believed that only magic armor masters and magic armor can save the world. Although he has heard about trial-takers and demons, he doesn't care much.
"No matter how strong the trial-taker is, he is still a flesh and blood body. How can he be compared with the products of science and technology? What's so good about visiting a magic spirit competition held in an unknown small town? Don't those guys know how to read history books? In which major progress of mankind was not led by scientific and technological development? When have you ever seen a group of muscular men with a group of pets changing the world? If muscles were useful, dinosaurs would still be the overlords of the earth. Aren't the muscles of primitive people more developed than those of modern people? Haven't they disappeared in the long river of history..." Meng Xiaotian walked into the City of Light while complaining.
"This is just a small, shabby town. I really don't know what's so interesting about it." Meng Xiaotian took a look around and felt more and more that this trip was unnecessary.
This city is too small. Even in a place like the Southern Cross Federation where there are many small cities, such a small city is relatively rare.
A city that can be independent must have a population of at least 100,000. It is hard to say whether a small city like this can accommodate 100,000 people.
"I'm sorry, sir. Photography is currently prohibited here." Meng Xiaotian was taking pictures outside the newly built Demon Spirit Arena when a man who looked like a security guard came over and stopped him.
"I am Meng Xiaotian, the anchor of the Hero Platform. I want to report on your Magic Spirit Competition. I hope you can help me." Meng Xiaotian said with a smile.
As an anchor who specializes in magic costumes, he is still well-known on the platform. Although this is just a smokescreen to hide his true identity, he has achieved some success.
"Sorry, sir, we don't accept interviews." The security guard didn't know Meng Xiaotian at all and still insisted on asking him to leave.
"You are holding a magic spirit competition, so you definitely need media exposure. I have millions of fans and can promote you very well. It's free, and I don't charge any fees." Meng Xiaotian brought up the number of his fans. Although most of them were bought fake fans, it was still very impressive to say it out loud.
"Sorry, please leave." The security guard didn't buy Meng Xiaotian's words and had no intention of letting him go.
"I want to see the person in charge here." Meng Xiaotian felt that the security guard was an uneducated idiot and there was no need to waste words with him.
If the person in charge here knew that this big anchor with millions of fans was promoting the Magic Spirit Contest for them for free, he would have to serve him attentively, and maybe even treat him with delicious food and drinks, and ask him to say a few good words about the promotion.
After hearing Meng Xiaotian say that he wanted to see the person in charge, the security guard didn't say anything else. He spoke a few words into the intercom, and soon someone brought a few security guards over.
Meng Xiaotian turned out to be a beautiful woman with a strong aura. She was wearing a red tight skirt and red leather boots. Her long legs were so sexy that they could kill people.
Seeing the beautiful woman leading people towards him, Meng Xiaotian was overjoyed, thinking: "Although this small broken city is not very good, the beauty is quite hot. If the beautiful woman speaks well, I can consider promoting them."
Seeing the beauty approaching, Meng Xiaotian smiled and took the initiative to extend his hand, saying, "Hello, beautiful lady. I am Meng Xiaotian, the anchor of the Hero Platform."
But the beautiful woman just walked past him, ignored him, and just said, "No interview."
Meng Xiaotian was stunned. After traveling all over the country for so many years, this was the first time he was treated like this.
"What's so great about someone from a small, broken city?" Meng Xiaotian was so angry that his teeth were itching, but the other person had already got into the car and left, so he had no place to vent his anger.
"Sir, please." The security guard made a professional gesture of invitation.
"Hmph." Meng Xiaotian turned and left, deciding to do some "promotion" for this little broken city.
After returning, Meng Xiaotian immediately started writing, seizing the time to write the copy.
However, the copy he wrote was not mocking or slandering, but praising them to the utmost, directly praising the City of Light and the Magic Spirit Competition to the sky.
As a professional, Meng Xiaotian knows very well that the higher a small city like this with no foundation is praised, the harder it will fall in the future.
With Meng Xiaotian working day and night, a video titled "The City of Demons That Makes Mage Masters Cry - The City of Light" soon appeared in his column.
Click to enjoy it first. Meng Xiaotian is quite satisfied with the copy this time. With just one video, the City of Light has offended both the magic outfit masters and the trial-takers. He can already foresee the tragic situation that will occur when the City of Light becomes the target of public criticism.
Soon, his comment area was filled with sarcasm and abuse, but Meng Xiaotian was not panicked at all, as this was exactly what he wanted to see.
Meng Xiaotian did not expect that this video would become unexpectedly popular. Although he only has tens of thousands of real fans, the number of clicks on his video has increased day by day. It was also pushed to the homepage of the platform. In just two days, the number of clicks reached millions, and there were tens of thousands of real comments.
However, the category pushed by the platform is a funny category.
Looking at the comments in the comment section, almost all of which were mocking and sarcastic, Meng Xiaotian felt particularly happy.
"After the Magic Spirit Competition starts, I will make a funny video and use the magic spirits and magic costumes to make a funny comparison. Maybe it will become really popular and I can be a host with millions of fans in the future." Meng Xiaotian was thinking about how to design subsequent videos after the Magic Spirit Competition started.
