The Western Imperial City was the third largest city of the Nine Furnace Divine Kingdom and also one of the 10 largest cities in the central region of the Sky Spill Continent. There were three great aristocratic families here as well as a special organization called Destiny Grasp.
Humans have a saying: stand tall at 30, bewildered at 40, hold your destiny at 50. The meaning behind this is that by the time a human is 50 years old, their life finally turns to stone and they know what their fate will be like.
The name of the organization Destiny Grasp also comes from this.
It was the largest intelligence organization in the entire Sky Spill Continent. Destiny Grasp was the one who had started the Destiny Decree, jointly working with several other intelligence organizations to compile the information together for the list.
Thousands of years ago, Destiny Grasp was only ranked fourth or fifth among the various intelligence networks on the continent. Then, he used a large amount of energy and resources to compile the Destiny Decree and ensure that the rankings were basically correct. After so many years, the fame and glory of Destiny Grasp continued to reach new heights until it gradually developed into its current scale.
The building housing Destiny Grasp looked very square and ordinary. On the first floor of the building, there were some people sitting around drinking tea while chatting; it looked like a very ordinary teahouse. But, if one carefully investigated it, they would find that this building was filled with powerful spells. Even Destiny Decree ranked masters could be severely injured if they were to get caught up in this spell.
"It's Destiny Grasp that compiled the Destiny Decree ..." Lin Ming looked at the building and saw the name of the organization written in large characters on the signboard. Then, he stepped in.
“What news rank do you want? A regular? A secret? ”In Destiny Grasp, a gray-robed middle-aged man asked from a chair behind the counter. He started to appraise Lin Ming.
Lin Ming was wearing a wood spirit jade mask like before, except that he had switched to one with a new look. This one had been personally carved by him.
In the Nine Kingdoms Heavenly Furnace, when a martial artist attended an auction or went to the hidden city square, they often wore wood spirit jade masks for security purposes. When a martial artist went to an intelligence organization to inquire about the news, many of them would also choose to wear a wooden spirit mask to conceal their identity. Thus, it was common to see a martial artist with Lin Ming's appearance in Destiny Grasp.
"How much does it cost?"
“One spirit essence stone per regular news article. As for the secret news, it depends on the value of the news itself. It started at 50 spirit essence stones and there was no limit to how far he could ascend. You can also ask about certain things, but it will cost you extra fees according to the question. ”
There were many martial artists who came to Destiny Grasp to inquire for certain information. For example, look for a specific object or look for a specific person. The cost of asking such questions is often quite high. Depending on how valuable the information was, it might cost several thousand or even tens of thousands of spirit essence stones.
“Ordinary news. About the four heavenly Kingdoms, the lucky chances, and the mystic realm. I'll take 20. ”
Lin Ming said casually. Ordinary news does not mean worthless. It had just become widespread and one did not need to go through Destiny Grasp to find out, so why was the price set low.
But Lin Ming had been in closed-door seclusion for the past three months. He knew nothing about the movements of the four Royal Kingdoms at the moment, especially that of the Asura Heavenly Kingdom. It was best for him to have an approaching understanding so that he would not be caught off guard later.
The gray-robed middle-aged man took out 20 cards and gave them to Lin Ming. Ten of them had information of the four heavenly Kingdoms and the other ten were lucky to be listed and Mystic Realms.
Lin Ming looked through them.
'The Nine Furnace Crown Prince Yang Yun had decided to move against a large trading company .. if this could be ordinary news, then it seemed that almost everyone already knew about it. '
Lin Ming looked at the second card. It was said that Yang Yun had sealed two of the three big trading firms, leaving the Heavencraft Trading Firm alone for now. Full and precise evidence has been filed and all their property has been confiscated.
'The Asura Divine Kingdom actually took it out for me. The reward for my catch was 800,000 spirit essence stones, two God-transforming Pills, and even a Life-Gifting Pill. They actually laid down the capital this time. '
Lin Ming faintly smiled, not caring too much. Something like robbing a reward could only happen once; it was almost impossible to succeed a second time. Otherwise, the Asura Heavenly Kingdom would have vanished long ago.
'The Great Demon Lord of the heavenly Kingdom of the Heavenly Kingdom and an Imperial Scholar both led the operation to capture me. It seemed that the second, third, and fourth Demon Envoys also wanted to atone for their sins. That Great Demon Envoy must have been the person I saw that day … '
Lin Ming recalled the Decree of Destiny master he felt from afar as he fled the Jagged Slope Mountain Branch Division. The energy is terrifying. If Lin Ming had really met her then it would likely be difficult to escape.
Lin Ming put aside the rest of the cards regarding the heavenly Kingdom and then looked at those depicting mystic realms, lucky chances, and such things. Although he did not hold on to expectations too much, there was still a slight chance he would be able to find a bit of luck from these cards.
'mm? The Great Desert of the Northwest had managed to gather all the jade keys and was able to open the mystic realm left behind by the ancient Sacred Lord? And they had invited the heroes of the world to join them in the exploration, as long as they could pay the price that could move the Great Desert of the Northwest? '
As Lin Ming saw this news, his heart trembled. After he killed Xuan Wuji, he had found one of these jade keys in his spatial ring. Because of that jade key he was involved in a fierce conflict with Wang Yichan in the Great Desert of the Northwest. The two of them clashed on the day of his wedding banquet.
Afterwards, Lin Ming exchanged jade keys for a mysterious young girl named 'Jue'. He came from the Forsaken God Clan and was distantly related to the sleeping goddess in the Eternal Demon Abyss.
He had not expected that the Great Desert of the Northwest had finally gathered all the keys of the mystic realm and prepared to unlock the ancient ruins of this Sacred God.
“Hehe, invite the world of the heroes of the world as long as they can pay the price that moves them? It sounds good to hear, but this Great Desert of the Northwest is likely looking for some free scouts to find a way in front of them and die for all the traps for them. '' The voice of Demonshine suddenly sounded from Lin Ming's spiritual sea. “I can bet you that they will not invite martial artists who are too powerful or come from the four heavenly Kingdoms. They would probably only bring in martial artists who did not have a strong background. ”
"That sounds right. Even so, there will still be people coming in and betting that they will find a great chance of luck there. ”
"mm? You wanna go? "Demonshine knew that Lin Ming had come to Destiny Grasp mostly to ask for lucky chances in hopes of finding a turning point to break through Life Destruction. This Mystic Holy Lord Realm was actually a pretty good opportunity.
Lin Ming hesitated for a moment, not responding immediately. If he were to go to this Mystic Lord Realm then there would be layers upon layers of danger. And most importantly, he could not reveal his identity. Trying to hide his status in front of a group of masters was easier said than done.
Moreover, he had no understanding of this Mystic Lord Holy Realm. Once he entered, he would not have the slightest advantage. There was no way for him to struggle with a Holy Land level power like the Great Desert of the Northwest.
After his status was revealed then Lin Ming truly believed that Wang Yichan, who had a grudge against him, would attempt to capture him alive and exchange him in exchange for the Asura Heavenly Kingdom.
If he went to this Mystic Lord Realm Holy then it could really be called walking to the door of death. There are nine chances to die and only one chance to live!
Although Lin Ming was not afraid of danger, he would not easily attempt this kind of dangerous adventure that he had absolutely no ability to control.
And even if he were to leave, it did not mean that he would make it through Life Destruction afterward.
The date for the opening of the mystic realm was two more months. He still had a month to decide before he had to leave.
Lin Ming did not immediately make a decision. He didn't stay in town for too long. At night he left the Western Imperial City and slipped into the wilderness at night.
The status is very sensitive at the moment. Even though he was wearing a wood spirit jade mask, it was inevitable that there would be people observing him. After all, it was easy to form an association since he was a late Revolving Core martial artist wearing a wood spirit jade mask.
Lin Ming found a random cave in the wild and placed several defensive spells and warning spells nearby. He carefully hid all the traces he had left behind and then began to meditate in silence.
For the sake of security, Lin Ming had already decided to change locations every night as long as he was at the borders of the four heavenly Kingdoms.
Like this, a few hours passed. The moon hangs high in the cloudy sky.
Suddenly, as Lin Ming was in meditation, his eyes opened wide and he was on guard.
He could sense a dangerous atmosphere approaching, but his warning spell had yet to be triggered. It was clear that this other party was deliberately avoiding them. They were definitely not common individuals!
'Are they from the Asura heavenly Kingdom? How did they find me? In the middle region of the Sky Spill Continent, even if there were not 10,000 Revolving Core martial artists wearing spirit wood jade masks, there should still be at least 8000.
'Besides, this is still the kingdom of the heavenly Nine Furnace. It was impossible for the Asura Heavenly Kingdom to place too many spies and their eyes here. So how did they find me so quickly? Could it be that they started following every Revolving Core martial artist wearing a wood jade mask?
'Or do they have a special method of breaking through the concealment of the wood spirit stone mask?' This thought flashed through Lin Ming's mind before he denied it. If they had this method then they would likely detect him at the beginning.
At this moment, the uninvited guests outside finally stepped within the range of the surveillance array he had set outside. From the battle array disc in the cave, Lin Ming finally saw the ghost images of these people.
With a single glance, he immediately took a cold breath.
The second, third, and fourth Demon Envoys were all here. And beyond that, they respectfully followed behind the other three. It was clear that the three of them had a much higher status than them!
The three in front were a middle-aged man, an old woman with a cane, and a gentle and gentle boy.
This little boy looked extremely cute and playful, but Lin Ming could actually feel a terrifying energy coming out of his body. It was as if a demon was contained within the body of the boy. And the old woman with the walking stick was covered in evil energy, the devil. His hair was twisted and bundled like a bunch of pythons. He just looks like an old witch.
Of the three, what seemed the most normal was the middle-aged man dressed in black. He was tall with broad shoulders and eyes as deep as the stars of the night. He exuded a very familiar atmosphere.
'Great Demon Envoy?'
Lin Ming recognized this middle-aged man. Without a doubt, he was the Great Demon Envoy that Lin Ming had seen in the Jagged Indentation Mountain Branch Division! Even though he was inside the spirit boat at that moment, the atmosphere he was exuding still shocked Lin Ming! The other two would likely be the Imperial Scholars of the Asura heavenly Kingdom.
'Run!'
This was Lin Ming's first thought as well as his only thought.
Not to mention the three monstrous existences ahead, even the second, third, and fourth Demon Envoy, one of them was someone who could not compete with Lin Ming!
And it was clear that they had already locked down the area where he was. It's impossible to sneak out of here without notice.
If this were to be a speed match, could he really compare?
Lin Ming did not even have the slightest bit of confidence in this matter. Since they knew his superiority in speed, there was no way they were unprepared beforehand. With the profound legacy of the Asura Heavenly Kingdom, how could they not have the means to greatly increase their own speed?
This was a murder party that specifically targeted him!
