After the Spring Festival, the fourth year of peace had passed. In the blink of an eye, it was already the fifth year of peace.
Early in the morning, before the sun rose …
Wu Ming stood at the top of the pavilion with a solemn expression. His lungs expanded as he inhaled and exhaled towards the east. Amidst the rising clouds, a wisp of indistinct purple aura descended.
When the first ray of sunlight broke through the sky, Wu Ming did not dare to move anymore. With a flash of light on his face, he circulated the Internal Cultivation Art and converted the wisp of purple aura into golden liquid, which he swallowed in three mouthfuls.
"I have the body of a Xiantian Realm cultivator as my foundation for this Internal Cultivation Art, but I'm able to make breakthroughs without any difficulty …"
After half an hour, Wu Ming slowly stopped and silently looked inside. He saw that in the chaos, the range of light in his sea of consciousness had expanded a little. He knew that he had made progress again, so he couldn't help but nod in satisfaction.
Then, a gloomy expression appeared on his face.
"2nd of February, Dragon Raising Its Head! Dragon Gate Gathering! "
Time was a little tight.
"Sister Wu Qing probably had a premonition that she would return to the Dao Academy to prepare immediately after the new year!
"It's a pity … Even though I've already crossed the threshold and improved rapidly, I'm still not strong enough to participate in such matters. It's like steering a boat in a raging sea, and I might be crushed if I'm not careful!
"The only way to quickly improve my strength is in the main hall!"
Wu Ming laughed. "Which of those Reincarnated Realm cultivators isn't on tenterhooks when it comes to missions? It's rare to see a fool like me looking forward to it!"
He went down the stairs and walked into a tunnel.
The place was filled with filthy and sinister aura, which made Wu Ming frown.
The light was dim. After taking a few more steps, he reached the depths of the tunnel and saw a building that looked like a dungeon.
Screams and whipping sounds could be heard coming from the gap of the door.
"Greetings, Young Master!"
The door opened, and Wu Tiehu walked out with a sinister smile. When he saw Wu Ming, he was stunned for a moment before quickly bowing.
"Hmm, how's the person inside?"
Wu Ming asked.
As for the layer of mysterious light on Wu Tiehu's body, he had already thoroughly studied it. This was the Heavenly Corresponding Star, the phenomenon of obtaining the light of a certain ominous star in the sky. In the future, he would definitely be able to accomplish great things.
Of course, it was only a sliver. If the stars truly responded to his will, then his power would truly be limitless.
However, even if there was only a sliver of it, it was not something that could be restricted by one's original fate. In times of chaos, even heroes would have a place to display their prowess. The original structure of an officer could not be restricted. When the time came, one could become a general.
'The Dao of fate is not unchangeable. The True Dragon Son of Heaven is the creator of fate. He can change the fate of others with the fate of the country. One Heaven and Two Earth refers to the descent of the Heavenly Star, and the Earth Dragon Qi can also change the size of the weapon …'
Wu Ming was very clear about this.
Even in chaotic times, the Flood Dragon, True Dragon, and Hidden Dragon Fate were not born with it.
At most, he would be born with a bit of his life force hidden deep within. If the world was peaceful, it would be useless, and he might even waste his life away.
Only by combining with the general trend of the world, obtaining the Heaven's Will and Earth Qi, slowly sculpting during growth, and after the general trend was achieved, would he be able to soar into the sky like a dragon.
Otherwise, if there were a few more people like Wu Ming, wouldn't he be able to find all of them?
This Wu Tiehu was the same.
With a sliver of the ominous light, it only made his foundation better than ordinary people. He was hot-tempered and brave. If he continued to mingle around, he might have to make a trip to the market.
However, once he had the authority of a weapon, he would start to evolve, and there would immediately be a difference!
In fact, as this person's authority and fate continued to expand, he could even attract the original stars to invest more, and become a true Star Fate!
'I wonder which ominous star this person corresponds to?'
However, Wu Ming knew how vast and vast the power of the stars was. There were at least eight hundred in the world that were born with a sliver of mystic light, if not a thousand!
If it was a famous ominous star, it was possible that there were tens of thousands of them!
With so many seeds, they would be planted widely and harvested sparingly. Those who died along the way would be ignored, and those who did well would be invested in, until the final Star Fate was decided, and that would be the Heavenly Star Descent.
'This is a bit similar to the Path of the Dragon. With Wu Tiehu's talent and fate, if he wants to attract the ominous star's life force, at least to the extent of being able to see the original body, he would need at least a real rank seven fate! To truly correspond to the stars and obtain the support of the Star Fate, it is possible to become a rank three or rank one general … '
'But … according to the rumors, these officials and generals of the stars are all signs of chaos, and they are here to assist the True Dragon Son of Heaven … Is this world … really going to be in chaos?'
Wu Tiehu naturally didn't know that Wu Ming was thinking so much in a trance. At this moment, he bowed and replied, "As usual, Fourth Ma also said that I'm afraid I won't be able to get much out of him, and he won't be able to live for long …"
"Yes!"
As soon as Wu Ming entered the dungeon, he saw a badly mutilated figure lying on the ground. The figure's legs were broken, and he was gasping for breath.
When the dead eyes saw Wu Ming enter, they moved again, revealing a battered and haggard face. It was the deacon of the Zhou Clan, Yu Cheng!
When this person saw Wu Ming, his body twitched.
"Yes! Seeing me come in, and the unharmed appearance of my Wu Clan, you should have given up, right? "
As Wu Ming spoke lightly, he saw a trace of despair in Yu Cheng's eyes.
"You are a smart person, and naturally, you should have guessed that you have been abandoned by the Zhou Clan … To tell you the truth, the Zhou Clan has already counted the evidence of your crimes, and you have been removed from the clan! All the young and old have been chased out, and it can be said that they have cut off all ties … "
"Although there are still people taking care of you in the dark, you are also the son of a noble family, and you should know that the tea cools when the person is gone. This kind of care is the most unstable, and if the main family can't remember it, how much of the relationship will be left?"
As Wu Ming spoke unhurriedly, Yu Cheng's eyes flickered.
"I won't hide it from you. You will die without a doubt, and my arrival this time is your last chance …"
"If you can hand over any information that can interest me, I can give your clan some silver and secretly take care of you …"
"You can choose not to believe me, but if you want to protect your clan, this is your only choice!"
After saying these words coldly, and placing the cold reality in front of Yu Cheng, Wu Ming directly turned around and walked out.
When he reached the ground, he breathed in the fresh air, but he slowly sighed.
"Young Master, Yu Cheng is already dead. This is the last thing he wrote!"
After a while, Wu Tiehu came behind him and presented a piece of white paper, on which a few lines of distorted words were written.
"Yes, you have worked hard. Go to the accountant to collect fifty taels of silver, and that Ma Laosi, reward him with twenty taels of silver! And the rules, do you remember? "
Wu Ming said casually, but Wu Tiehu shivered. His body quivered, and he promised loudly, "Young Master, don't worry. If a single word of it is leaked, I will immediately kill Ma Laosi and bring his head to you! Then, I will kill myself to apologize! "
…
After sending Wu Tiehu away, he returned to the room.
Wu Ming's expression was calm. He lit a fire and burned the paper. When he recalled the information on it, he faintly sighed, "County Wang … Wang Clan?"
This was the only piece of information that Yu Cheng had guarded until now, and only took out to exchange for the fate of a clan.
Unfortunately, to Wu Ming, it was not good news.
The mastermind behind the scenes who instructed the Zhou Clan in the county was shockingly the Prince of Chu Feng County, the Wang Clan that resided in the prefecture city for generations!
Wu Ming rubbed the space between his eyebrows, and a bit of information appeared in his mind.
This Wang Clan had been in Chu Feng County for a long time, and had risen to power a hundred years ago. Until now, there were a thousand clansmen, and they occupied two hundred hectares of land. Their servants formed an army, and their maids were as numerous as the clouds. Their power and influence were spread throughout the eight counties of the county. They were the true hope of a county, and a huge clan!
Of course, the most important thing was that the head of this clan a hundred years ago was the County Governor, Wang Zhong!
He had built a dam in the gorge, erected a monument to suppress the White Flood Dragon, and turned the harm of the Raging Dragon River into a benefit. The people of the county were grateful to him, and it was rumored that he had become the City God of Hell, Wang Zhong!
"Wang Zhong, City God of Prefecture, White Flood Dragon, 2nd of February, Dragon Raising Its Head … Dragon Gate Meeting! They are all linked together! "
Wu Ming gritted his teeth, and laughed coldly.
The strength of the County Governor was at least five times that of the Zhou Clan, and his influence was not small.
Needless to say, there was also the City God of Hell, silently presiding over the gathering, and increasing the luck of Yin Virtue!
Without a doubt, this was a terrifyingly strong opponent!
Boom!
There seemed to be a flash of thunder in the air.
Wu Ming was startled, and when he opened his Spiritual Eye, he was shocked once more.
He saw that after he obtained the information of the mastermind, the fog not far from his luck was pushed aside, and an extremely thick layer of black energy appeared!
This black energy rose up, and it even formed a black cloud, and it gave off an unstoppable feeling.
"Black clouds cover the city, and the city is about to be destroyed!"
This sentence suddenly appeared in Wu Ming's heart.
When luck comes and goes, it's all the same, and when it's over, the hero isn't free. The Dao of Luck was to confuse the five colors, causing one to be confused and unable to see the truth.
Especially when doctors don't treat themselves, and the law doesn't apply to oneself.
Before one could see through this barrier, one wouldn't be able to see this thick tribulation energy. One would have to wait until it acted up, and when it was irreversible, only then would one be able to comprehend it.
"No wonder people say that this Qi Gazing Technique is useless!"
Wu Ming laughed bitterly, but he knew that with his luck, the chances of him getting through this black cloud were extremely slim.
In fact, not to mention himself, even Wu Qing was a little uncertain.
With the value of her life, she might be able to protect herself, but her luck would probably be reduced by more than half. It was really hard to say what would happen in the future.
"The heavens move vigorously, and so should a gentleman!"
Wu Ming was silent for a moment, and then he suddenly recited a sentence.
"There's a line in the heavens' secret. Even if it's a calamity, there's still a chance of survival! And … Is the county so great? Since they're going to attack my family, I can't let them live! "
Immediately, a ruthless look appeared on his face.
"Wait for me to go to the county office and observe my luck. As long as there's a flaw, I'll be able to break it!"
However, at this moment, a piece of information suddenly appeared.
[Ding! Respected Samsara Traveler, Geng Shen 69, Apostle of the Master God! Your mission will start three days from now. Please be prepared!]
[This mission is a medium-sized mission! Scene size: Medium!]

Wu Ming was stunned, and then he laughed, "Good!"
