Chapter 266

~8 min read 1,496 words

That Jin Xian Bai Hu captain, a pair of pale golden vertical pupils, passed through the demon crowd and looked at the tiger demon "Chi Tong" transformed by Su Chen.

In an instant, a powerful pressure mixed with the majesty of a divine beast pressed toward the area where Su Chen was.

Feeling the pressure of the Bai Hu at the Jin Xian cultivation base, the noise of the ten thousand demons instantly lowered.

Lu Ming, who was beside Su Chen, was struck by lightning, his already soft limbs could no longer support him, and he "plumped" to the ground, his huge deer eyes full of despair and fear.

However, Su Chen, who was at the center of the pressure, still had a straight figure and did not move at all.

That pressure, which was enough to make an ordinary Heavenly Immortal collapse, was nothing more than a breeze to him.

He raised his eyes and collided with the Jin Xian captain's gaze in the air, without the slightest fear on his face, but instead revealing a trace of doubt.

Seeing this, the Jin Xian captain had a different color in his eyes.

What a strong physical body, what a steady mind!

In this pilgrimage team of ten thousand demons, most of them were some beast races with low cultivation and mixed bloodlines; it was rare to see one that looked decent.

He put away the pressure, took big strides, and walked straight toward Su Chen under the awe-struck eyes of a group of demon beasts.

The white-gold armor plates on his body collided, making a crisp clanking sound.

"What is your name?"

The Jin Xian captain stopped in front of Su Chen, his figure a circle larger than the tiger demon transformed by Su Chen, and asked from a high position.

"Returning to the Lord, my name is Chi Tong." Su Chen bowed and said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "I came from Western Xiuniu Hezhou, heard about the Saint clan's ancestral sacrifice, and specifically came to go on a pilgrimage."

"Chi Tong?" The captain raised his brows, and his pale golden pupils scanned Su Chen up and down again. "Late-Stage Heavenly Immortal cultivation, solid foundation, although not of my clan's bloodline, the tiger clan bloodline is considered pure, not bad."

"The Lord praises me too much." Su Chen responded calmly.

The captain didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the point: "I am Bai Ling, captain of the Second Law Enforcement Squad. This ceremony, there are too many descendants coming to go on a pilgrimage, and my Bai Hu clan is short of manpower. Seeing that you are also capable, I can give you a chance."

He reached out his large hand and patted Su Chen's sturdy shoulder.

"From now on, you are requisitioned."

Requisitioned?

Su Chen's heart stirred, but a trace of astonishment appeared on his face.

Bai Ling took out a white-gold token carved with a Bai Hu totem and threw it to Su Chen.

"This is a temporary law enforcement order. With this token, you are a member of the temporary law enforcement team of my Bai Hu Holy Land. Until the end of the ceremony, obey the dispatch, patrol the holy land, and maintain order."

He paused and added: "Joining the law enforcement team, there will be no shortage of benefits for you. Not only can you enter the inner hall to watch the ceremony, but you will also be allowed to cultivate in the Ancestral Vein for three years after the sacrifice is completed."

Cultivate in the Ancestral Vein for three years!

As soon as these words came out, the demon races around who heard this all couldn't help but look at Su Chen, their eyes full of undisguised jealousy.

That is the Geng Metal Ancestral Vein, the Geng Metal Qi in it is incomparably pure, and the Metal Law is easier to comprehend; cultivating in it for one year is comparable to a hundred years in the outside world!

This is not a requisition at all, this is clearly a great reward.

`It is truly a case of sleepiness coming and being sent a pillow, and it comes with full service. `

Su Chen laughed secretly in his heart, but his face was solemn. He accepted the token with both hands and said in a deep voice: "It is Chi Tong's honor to be able to serve the Saint clan."

"Very good." Bai Ling nodded with satisfaction. "Bai Lu, take him to get familiar with the rules."

"Yes, Captain!"

A Xuan Immortal tiger clan guard behind him responded and came out.

Su Chen nodded to Lu Ming, who was paralyzed on the side and already too scared to speak, and followed the guard named Bai Lu, passed through the archway, and officially stepped into the holy land of the Bai Hu clan.

Entering the canyon, that rich Geng Metal Qi rushed toward his face.

Bai Lu led the way in front while concisely introducing the rules.

"Our law enforcement team is mainly responsible for three things: first, suppress troublemakers; no matter who it is, if they dare to be presumptuous in the holy land, take them down directly; if they dare to resist, kill them directly; second, guide the pilgrimage team to prevent them from breaking into forbidden areas by mistake; third, and most importantly, guard against those bald donkeys who have not given up."

"Bald donkeys?" Su Chen asked knowingly.

"Who else could it be?" A trace of disgust appeared on Bai Lu's face. "That group of monks on Lingshan. They have long coveted the Ancestral Vein left by the ancestors and are as annoying as flies. With the ceremony approaching, they will definitely send people to make trouble. If you find any suspicious bald heads, you don't need to ask for instructions, take them down directly!"

"Understood." Su Chen nodded.

Bai Lu soon took Su Chen to a stronghold on the periphery of the Bai Hu clan, had people register Su Chen's identity, assigned Su Chen's patrol team, and left in a hurry.

Su Chen thus became a temporary worker in the Bai Hu Holy Land.

For the next few days, he followed the patrol team and patrolled back and forth in the peripheral area of the Geng Metal Ancestral Vein.

With this identity, he could observe the terrain and get familiar with the layout of the Bai Hu clan's territory openly.

During these days of patrolling, Su Chen was not idle either. Whenever he had a chance, he would try to use the Hunyuan Jin Dan to sense the flow of Geng Metal Qi in the Ancestral Vein. He sensed that deep in the earth of this massive mountain range, a terrifying power that made his heart tremble was dormant.

Su Chen suspected that this was the place where the Innate Gengxin Undying Spiritual Light was entrenched.

It's just that its specific location was covered by the heavy restrictions laid down by the Bai Hu and the majestic earth vein Qi, making it difficult to lock onto precisely.

However, Su Chen was not in a hurry at all; there would always be opportunities. `

He suppressed his temper and conscientiously played the role of Chi Tong.

On this day, he was patrolling in a valley with others in his patrol team, and this place was already quite close to the core area of the Ancestral Vein.

Suddenly, Su Chen's heart stirred.

He sensed that from deep in the earth vein, a powerful Geng Metal Qi suddenly fluctuated violently, and at the same time, a faint spatial fluctuation came.

That fluctuation flashed and disappeared, but Su Chen could be sure that it was the aura of the Innate Gengxin Undying Spiritual Light; it was moving.

Su Chen's gaze was cast toward the direction from which the fluctuation came; it was a deep valley shrouded in rich mist, with powerful restrictions at the entrance, which was clearly a forbidden area that the Bai Hu clan focused on.

Just as he was thinking about how to get closer to investigate.

"Woo..."

A sharp and urgent alarm sound pierced the sky and rang out from another pass in the distance.

"Enemy attack! Someone is forcing their way through the pass!"

A Bai Hu guard's face changed, and he roared.

Another Bai Hu guard beside Su Chen had a fierce light in his eyes and licked his lips.

"Finally, there's work to do! Go, Brother Chi Tong, follow us to slaughter those bold people."

Before the voice fell, the Bai Hu guards in the same team had transformed into several streaks of light and galloped toward the direction where the alarm sounded.

Su Chen stood in place, looked at the direction from which the alarm came, and then looked at the valley where he had just sensed the fluctuation.

An opportunity to get to the bottom of things was placed in front of him, and Su Chen was thinking about how to choose.
