Chapter 1736
The Tiangong team broke into Qianhuan's territory; originally, the Illusion Sect occupied the geographical advantage and wanted to exhaust their strength before killing them like turtles in a jar; but if the Tiangong takes Stone Dragon Peak, the strong and weak will be reversed, and the advantage will change hands. When Qianhuan comes out of seclusion, he will also become a lone commander, which will be easy to deal with. "Qianhuan won't come out?" Miaozhantian laughed lowly. "Good, very good; you just kill all his disciples and grand-disciples, and let him take a good look!"
And take all the treasures from the Illusion Sect's treasury!
"This old thing Qianhuan must have accumulated many treasures from ancient times to the present."
Bai Ziqi pondered: "Also, send people to explore Upside-Down Lake; that place is not quite right."
There is an Upside-Down Lake in the Upside-Down Sea; how could he not care? Local fishermen also said that every time the storm wall opens, night-fork ghosts crawl out of the lake to eat people.
Heh, what a joke. Can there be idle monsters in the cave dwelling of an ancient True Immortal? If Qianhuan really didn't want to see them, he could slap them into slag with one palm! The gray parrot suddenly said to Bai Ziqi: "If you capture True Person Qianhuan for me, you will have made an immortal contribution; what reward do you want?"
Bai Ziqi lowered his eyebrows and eyes: "Even if the God bestows a goose feather, to me, it is heavier than a hundred mountains."
These words were not said casually. Miaozhantian is one of the thirty-five main gods, and his ranking among the gods of Lingxu can be ranked in the top four. Otherwise, how could he have such a large golden statue in the temple of Xushan, and how could he occupy the faith of a country on the Flash Gold Plain? Bai Ziqi also knew that this trip to the Upside-Down Sea was also an opportunity Miaozhantian snatched by suppressing other gods. Once he successfully captures True Person Qianhuan, his strength will inevitably skyrocket, and his divine position will also have to move forward.
This is a true great god.
"You have always been known for your uprightness and loyalty; when did you learn to be so slippery?" The gray parrot just happened to pluck a feather from its back and casually threw it to him. "Come, bestowed upon you."
Bai Ziqi took it with both hands and said seriously: "Thank you, Goddess."
The gray parrot stopped laughing, tilted its head to look at him twice, and then continued: "The old man managing the Tiangong is becoming less and less capable; the Holy Venerable already intends to arrange for you to succeed the position of Chief Envoy, but I am not convenient to stand up for you."
Bai Ziqi nodded, knowing that the Goddess's words were very realistic.
"You have already bestowed many treasures upon me, as well as this lamp spirit." Bai Ziqi raised his hand, and a little golden flame ignited at his fingertip. "I am already very satisfied."
Bai Ziqi has merit in leading the army, and Miaozhantian should bestow rewards, but there is no rush for a moment. The gray parrot said "Hmm": "After becoming the Chief Envoy, what do you want to do?"
"Today's Tiangong is corrupt and decaying, decaying with Beijia; the most important thing to do is naturally to scrape the bones to clear the corruption, remove the old and accept the new." Bai Ziqi said seriously. "The spiritual energy of the human world is erupting and unstoppable, and the Tiangong should also be actively promising; continuing to muddle along like now, without any reform, will only make us more passive in the future great changes."
Miaozhantian laughed lowly twice: "I finally know why you are so annoying."
He didn't hear less of Bai Ziqi's negativity usually.
This kid wants to advance too much, but he is already the Chief Envoy of the Tiangong, and there is only one position above him. The more capable Bai Ziqi is, the more people who don't like him.
"The God praises me." Bai Ziqi continued. "Not to mention anything else, why was the matter of He Xiao being the culprit who caused chaos in the Tiangong hidden for so long? Who was covering for him in front of Beijia, Lingxu City, and the Tiangong? Also, the war against the Mou Nation has been intermittent and small-scale, and the Tiangong has let it go, unable to restrain it, causing chaos in the surrounding areas! I knew the truth after getting it; if these stumbling blocks are not removed, the Tiangong's actions will always be stumbling. When the changes are at the door, dragging once, being slow by a beat, perhaps the whole game will be lost."
The gray parrot laughed lowly, as if feeling that his last sentence was a bit alarmist, but still said: "Very good. We didn't misjudge you."
The Tiangong needs a successor who can show his ambitions like this.
Bai Ziqi heard His disapproval. With the strength of the Tiangong and the prosperity of Beijia, what's wrong with making a few small mistakes? Why talk about losing the whole game? But the sense of urgency in Bai Ziqi's heart was real, and it had become heavier since he came to the Flash Gold Plain. This land looks chaotic as usual at first glance, but in fact, a new change is brewing. Not to mention anything else, why is the quantity of evil energy much lower than before?
Bai Ziqi always felt that a new force was rising in the dark, called inauspicious. Letting it continue to develop would definitely be very unfavorable to the Tiangong.
He didn't know where the threat would specifically come from, but he could feel that it already existed.
Unfortunately, he had no evidence, could not speak it out, and could not convince the gods.
The fleet continued to advance along the coastline, and then an informant came to report: "There is no beach at the southeast corner of Silver Pearl Island, but there is a long reef."
The parrot flew away, and Bai Ziqi ordered: "Approach it."
The fleet was cautious when approaching the long reef, fearing that the terrain would suddenly be raised again, causing the ships to run aground.
However, until they sailed near the bay corner, the water area ahead remained open, without any sudden change in terrain.
At this time, Bai Ziqi hesitated instead and didn't let the fleet advance directly, but walked back to the table to observe the sand table.
This was the map made by the kite demon patrolling Silver Pearl Island.
Bai Ziqi looked at the sand table repeatedly, compared it with the scene in front of him, and pointed: "There was originally a reef dam here, with the sea outside the dam and a lake inside; now this dam is gone?"
Two reef dams surrounded each other, cutting out an inner lake and an outer sea.
He still remembered the name of this lake; it was called Upside-Down Lake.
Now that one is missing, the water bodies inside and outside are connected, and the lake and sea are connected.
Bai Shiqi looked down and up, compared it several times, and was shocked: "Yes, the reef dam is gone! Could the Illusion Sect have set a trap for us?"
This sand table was made less than two hours ago; either there was a mistake in the drawing, or the Illusion Sect was playing tricks, secretly removing the reef dam.
Both possibilities are not small.
Bai Ziqi looked at the water area ahead: "I said why there were no raised mountain cliffs here; it turns out the Illusion Sect wanted to drive us here."
Bai Shiqi looked at the dark lake water, and the more he looked, the more he felt the crisis: "Still seen through by the Lord!"
"The Illusion Sect doesn't know that I have already made a panoramic sand table of Silver Pearl Island, and still wants to lure me into Upside-Down Lake; there must be something suspicious about this place." Bai Ziqi said "Hmm." "The two fishermen said before that Upside-Down Lake is the entrance to the 'Ghost Realm.' That is to say, this is very likely the boundary between reality and illusion. Order it down: advance."
"...... My Lord?" Knowing it's a trap, still want to go forward?
"Land as soon as possible, before the Illusion Sect releases the next great divine ability." Only when this team has their feet on the ground can they exert their combat effectiveness.
So even if he knew it was a trap, the Tiangong team had no choice but to plunge in headfirst.
