"Understood!"
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Remember, you have to ensure your own safety. At the same time, don't reveal your identity. You can use other methods to complete the mission. I'm talking about any method, even if it involves slaughtering civilians. Also, remember, ensuring your own safety is the most important thing. Even if you don't get any information, as long as you're alive, you've completed the mission.
Understood! "" Yes, I understand! "
Zhao Hai nodded. Then with a wave of his hand, golden runes flew towards Liu Qingrui and the others. As soon as these runes touched their bodies, they directly entered their bodies. Five runes were placed on each person's body.
Zhao Hai looked at the disciples and said, "I've placed five runes on each of your bodies. Each of these five runes contains my attack power. Nobody would be able to find out where these runes are. If you want to use these runes, then as long as you think about it, you'll be invincible in the sea. Naturally, if you don't have enough time to shout, then the runes will activate themselves. But remember, these runes can only be used five times. After that, if you encounter any danger, then you can only rely on yourselves." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Five runes have been placed on each of your bodies. These runes can only be used five times.
If you encounter any danger, then you can only rely on yourself. "Everyone nodded. They were very happy. After all, Zhao Hai only had five chances to make a move. They believed that these five chances were enough to ensure their safety.
Zhao Hai looked at them and said, "I'll give you five days to prepare. If you need anything during these five days, then you can directly ask. The sect will do its best to satisfy you. After five days, you'll have to leave on time. Go back and think about it. If you need anything, remember to tell the sect."
Everyone nodded, then they turned around and left. Then it was time for the next group of people. Only after all 500 of them had their runes placed on their bodies did the meeting come to an end.
When Liu Qingrui returned to his room, his heart was still filled with excitement. He believed that the five runes that Zhao Hai gave him weren't that simple. He must make good use of them. If he didn't need to use them in the spiritual world, then Zhao Hai wouldn't take them back. If he were to encounter any danger in the future, then it wouldn't be too late to take them out and use them.
At the same time, Liu Qingrui also understood that this operation would be very dangerous. One must know that the place they were going to was a completely unfamiliar place. It was precisely because of this that Zhao Hai asked them to make a request. Asking them to make a request wasn't to say that they would die, but to give them something good before they die. Obviously, this wasn't the case. Letting them make a request was to ask them what they needed in order to improve their strength and better protect their lives. Liu Qingrui understood this point, so what he needed now was to ask the Sect for something.
Five days passed in a blink of an eye. Liu Qingrui also thought about what he needed. He asked the sect to prepare things for him. Some pills, some crystals, and some formations. These things were all put away by him.
Five days later, the group of five hundred people were all ready. Then, they went directly to a small courtyard in the Sky City. Then, they entered the courtyard in batches. This time, the sect gave them the task of completing it individually. Therefore, they were sent to different places separately. At that time, they would also communicate with each other. However, when they communicated with each other, they would also use some secret words to prevent others from discovering them.
Liu Qingrui began to feel nervous as everyone disappeared into the teleportation array. They were about to go to a completely unfamiliar place, so it was natural for him to feel nervous. After taking a few deep breaths, he calmed himself down and walked into the teleportation array. With a flash of white light, Liu Qingrui disappeared into the teleportation array.
Liu Qingsong was an ordinary farmer in Pine Needle Village at the foot of Qingsong Mountain. Their Pine Needle Village was a very ordinary village. However, Liu Qingsong also knew that their Qingsong Village was under the jurisdiction of Elegant Wood. Elegant Wood was an Immortal Sect, an extremely powerful Immortal Sect. The people in the Immortal Sect could go anywhere, topple mountains and overturn seas. They were omnipotent.
A few years ago, some children in Pine Needle Village were found to have spiritual roots and were directly taken away by the Immortal Sect. Even their families were taken away. This matter caused a great sensation in Pine Needle Village at that time. One must know that it was the first child in Pine Needle Village with spiritual roots and the first child to become an Immortal since the village was founded. The villagers were naturally very excited. However, their excitement was not only because of the child. The child becoming a disciple of the Immortal Sect would not bring them any benefits. They did not need to be excited. What they were excited about was that if a child with spiritual roots appeared in the village, there would be a second one. Maybe one day, their child would also have spiritual roots and could also join the Immortal Sect and become an Immortal in the Immortal Sect.
Liu Qingsong thought the same. Although he was only 16 years old and was not yet at the age of marriage, he had already begun to think about what would happen to his child in the future. If his child really had a spiritual root and could really cultivate, then their family could move to the safe zone and live there. They would no longer have to live in fear and trepidation like this.
The reason why Liu Qingsong felt so scared now was that their family was not safe. Although their family was under the jurisdiction of the Elegant Mu Pavilion, the people there did not care whether they were dead or alive. People said that there was a difference between immortals and mortals. They belonged to mortals and immortals would not even look at them. He still remembered that when he was 10 years old, he had a very good friend called Cheng Ming. Cheng Ming's family lived on the other side of the mountain. When his father went hunting, sometimes he would go to Cheng Ming's house to stay. The place where Cheng Ming's family lived was Cheng Village.
However, when he was ten years old, he never saw Chen Ming again. This was because Chen Ming was killed that year. Their entire village was killed. Moreover, their corpses turned into a pile of bones. All of their flesh and blood disappeared. According to the elders of the village, the Immortals killed them. The Immortals wanted to use their corpses to make things, so they killed them all.
He still clearly remembered that he cried for several days and had nightmares for a whole year before he slowly recovered. From then on, he was filled with fear towards the Immortals. At that time, the elders in the village said that the Immortals had killed the Immortals because they had found enough people. Otherwise, their village would have been destroyed by the Immortals.
It was precisely because of this that Liu Qingsong wanted his child to become an immortal. Because if his child became an immortal, then they could live in the Safety Zone. Once there, they would not have to be afraid of being killed. It was said that people in the Safety Zone would not be killed.
It was precisely because of this that Liu Qingsong was very happy. He was happy that there would be a person with spiritual roots in their village. Because if one person in the village had spiritual roots, there might be a second person with spiritual roots. Then, the girls from other villages would be willing to marry into their village.
Liu Qingsong's father had already passed away, so only his mother was left in the family. His mother had already arranged for him to get married. Although it was a bit early to get married at 16, there were many people who got married at this age. Therefore, it was not too early.
Today, Liu Qingsong had just finished taking care of his family's field. Their Pine Needle Village was located at the foot of Qingsong Mountain, so there weren't many good fields. Liu Qingsong's family only had one good field, and the rest were sloping fields. This sloping field was still dry land, so it wasn't a good field. However, there was still some yield every year. In addition, they could go into the mountain to hunt, so they didn't have to worry about food and water.
After Liu Qingsong finished taking care of his family's sloping field, he hid under a tree and rested. Children of his age in the village could already be considered half an adult, so they began to help their family farm. Because of Liu Qingsong's father's early death, he began to help his family farm. Because of this, his body looked shorter and thinner than his peers. However, there weren't many of his peers who were as strong as him.
While Liu Qingsong was looking at the two birds singing in the tree, he suddenly felt a flash of white light in the woods not far from him. The white light was very bright, so it was hard for him not to notice it.
Liu Qingsong immediately jumped up and curiously looked in that direction. Then he picked up his hoe and slowly walked in that direction, wanting to see what was flashing.
While Liu Qingsong was walking in that direction, a voice was suddenly heard, "I didn't expect someone to be here. Little Brother, let me ask you, where is this place?"
When this voice was heard, Liu Qingsong was startled. Liu Qingsong clearly heard the voice, but he didn't see anyone. This made his hair stand up. He looked around and said, "Who is it? Who's talking? "
The voice was heard, "Little Brother, look up, I'm above you."
When Liu Qingsong heard this, he couldn't help but raise his head. He found a person about five meters in front of him, and he was floating in the air. Liu Qingsong was sure that the person wasn't stepping on anything and was just flying in the air.
Immortal! Liu Qingsong immediately thought of this word. When he thought of an Immortal, Liu Qingsong immediately fell to his knees and said with a trembling voice, "Senior Immortal, please spare my life!"
Liu Qingrui looked at the trembling child and couldn't help but frown. One must know that in the Sea Exploring Sect, these children wouldn't kneel in front of them. This was because the Sea Exploring Sect attached great importance to their children. All of the children who reached a certain age would go to school to study. When they see the Sea Exploring Sect, they would only need to give a salute and call them Senior Brother. How could they be like this child, afraid to this extent?
Liu Qingrui said, "Get up, there's no need to be afraid. I won't hurt you. Just tell me where this place is."
Liu Qingsong was still kneeling as he repeatedly said, "This little one wouldn't dare, this little one wouldn't dare. If Senior Immortal wants to know, then just ask. This little one will tell Senior Immortal everything."
Liu Qingrui looked at Liu Qingsong's appearance and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was now certain that the attitude of the people in this place towards these children would be different from that of the Sea Exploring Sect. Even their attitude towards commoners would be different from that of the Sea Exploring Sect.
Liu Qingrui's figure flashed and landed in front of Liu Qingsong. He reached out his hand and helped Liu Qingsong up. Then he said, "You don't need to be afraid. Tell me, what's your name?"
Although Liu Qingsong was helped up by Liu Qingrui, his body was still trembling. After hearing Liu Qingsong's words, he quickly replied: "Replying to Senior Immortal, this lowly one is called Liu Qingsong. I live in Pine Needle Village below."
"Liu Qingsong? You're Liu Qingsong and I'm Liu Qingrui. Haha, our names are really similar. Those who don't know would think that we're relatives. You don't need to be afraid, come and sit. " Then Liu Qingrui brought Liu Qingsong to a nearby tree and sat down. Liu Qingsong sat next to Liu Qingrui while trembling. From time to time, he would steal glances at Liu Qingrui. He had never seen such a polite Senior Immortal. The smile on the Senior Immortal's face made him feel like a spring breeze. His nervousness couldn't help but lessen a bit.
In fact, he hadn't seen many cultivators before. Last time, when the cultivators came to the village to select people, this was the first time he saw a legendary Immortal. Those cultivators were naturally arrogant and wouldn't even look at him. Because of this, Liu Qingsong was very curious to see a cultivator like Liu Qingrui.
Liu Qingrui looked at Liu Qingsong and couldn't help but smile. "Liu Qingsong, right? I'll call you Qingsong. Qingsong, where is this place? Have you heard of any Immortal Cultivators around here?"
Liu Qingsong quickly said, "Senior Immortal, this is Qingsong Mountain. Our home is in Pine Needle Village below. The Immortal Cultivators you're talking about should be Senior Immortals like you, right? Yes, but I don't know how far away they are from here. A few years ago, several Senior Immortals came to our village to select people. In the end, they chose Liu Songguo from our tree. I heard that those Senior Immortals were from Elegant Wood Pavilion. Elegant Wood Pavilion is a very powerful Immortal Sect. There are many powerful people inside, each of them has the ability to topple mountains and overturn seas. "
Hearing this, Liu Qingrui couldn't help but frown. He said, "Elegant Wood Pavilion? I've never heard of it. Qingsong, tell me everything you know about the Senior Immortals. Also, tell me everything about the Senior Immortals that happened around here. What do you think?"
Liu Qingsong quickly replied, "Yes, Senior Immortal, Senior Immortal, our Qingsong Mountain is very big. I heard that the Elegant Wood Pavilion is located in the depths of Qingsong Mountain, but no one knows the exact location. Because our mountain is very remote, very few Immortals come here, and we don't have much information about Immortals. I only know two things about Immortals. One is that a few years ago, Immortals came to our tree to choose immortal children. The other is that when I was ten years old, an Immortal killed all the villagers of Cheng Village on the other side of the mountain. Besides these two things, I don't know anything else about Immortals."
