610 Short rest
Ye Qin, Zhou Yi and other Jindan monks, after asking the location of the Tiandao League branch in Mingxiaguang City in the city, they went to report their merits together.
The statistical formulation of the demon killing list is the responsibility of the elders of the two immortal leagues to ensure fairness. However, the number of members of the Presbyterian Group of the Tiandao League and the Tianmo League is not large, and it is impossible to cover all aspects. Many specific affairs are completed by the deacons of the subordinates of the Presbyterian League.
The same is true for identifying the merits of the demon killing list.
In the Tiandao League and the Tianmo League branches of the major fairy cities, each has deacons responsible for counting merits and rewards, and Xiaguang City is no exception.
At this time, it was the end of the month, and a large number of Jindan monks were stationed in Xiaguang City. When Ye Qin and others came to the stone hall of the branch of the Tiandao League, many Jindan monks were handing over the demon elixir and shadow book to the deacon in the hall in exchange for rewards and recording their achievements.
"There are so many Jindan monks in this city, and the strength of the Western clan of the Tiandao League is really strong!"
Zhou Yi stepped into the hall and saw the crowd, so he couldn't help but praise in a low voice.
"I'm afraid that Baoxia Palace recruited some of the middle and late Jindan monks of the Western clan of the Tiandao League to this Xiaguang City to defend the city, so it was so popular. All the monks of our northern clan are no less than them.
Jin Zhongshan said with a smile.
"It's a pity that the strength of the northern clan could not be concentrated, otherwise it would not have been such a big defeat."
Zhou Yi shook his head as he spoke, and then turned to Ye Qin and other monks and said, "Brother Ye, everyone, let's report our merits, go back to find a place to stay in the city for a while, and then discuss future actions."
"Good!"
The monks nodded one after another.
Ye Qin nodded slightly and lined up with a small number of people.
There are many Jindan monks in the city, and there are many deacons of the Tiandao League in the hall. There are special monks responsible for identifying, registering meritorious deeds and distributing rewards.
Not long after, it was Ye Qin's turn.
Ye Qin came to the counter of a middle-aged deacon and put a shadow book and a storage bag containing a demon elixir on the counter.
"How many monsters have you killed?"
The middle-aged deacon glanced at it casually. "I didn't even look at Ye Qin much, and asked lazily. He recognized almost all the well-ranked Jindan monks in the city, but he had no impression of the green-shirted monk in front of him. In his opinion, most of them were unknown people, so Ye Qin nodded and poured out more than ten demon elixirs in the storage bag.
"So much!"
The middle-aged deacon couldn't help but be shocked. Finally, he looked up at Ye Qin in surprise, immediately put on a serious attitude, and carefully checked these elixirs.
If it's a low-level demon elixir, it doesn't matter if there are more than a dozen.
What really shocked him was that most of these more than a dozen demon elixirs were ninth-order and eighth-order demon elixirs. It is not what ordinary Jindan monks can kill so many late Jindan monsters in just one month.
At least the top 100 monks have such strength.
The middle-aged deacon identified the demon elixir, and then picked up the shadow book. The divine consciousness was carefully checked and compared in the shadow book.
The middle-aged deacon does not dare to neglect at all. For the ranking of more than 1,000 in the Jindan Demon Killing List, it must be filed. The high-level audit of the Xianmeng is extremely strict.
These demon elixir varieties, equal levels, and the monster varieties and equal levels recorded in the shadow book must be able to be numbered one by one, so that they can be killed by the green-shirted monks in front of them. Otherwise, these elixirs may have been bought from other monks.
This batch of shadow books" is specially created by the two immortal alliances for the battle of immortals and demons. It has unique marks and cannot be faked.
The middle-aged deacon quickly looked at the shadow book with his consciousness, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became. After a little noise, he saw a small warship behind him appear. The middle-aged deacon's eyes were almost dull, looking at Ye Qin in disbelief.
"Your Excellency?"
"Ye Qin" the elder of the Purple Sword Palace.
"Ah n, it was originally Elder Ye of the Purple Sword Palace!"
The middle-aged deacon finally remembered something. Recently, a monk has risen very fast in the Jindan anti-killing list. I don't know if it's too surprising to leave. I'm very excited. "Your Excellency killed a total of 27 ninth-order monsters this month." Twenty-seven eighth-order monsters and fifty-one seventh-level monsters. Most of the monsters behind were annihilated together with the demon elixir due to the spirit cannon bombardment. However, this part of the monsters killed can still be counted as meritorious deeds. "It's just because there is no demon elixir, so it can't be exchanged for rewarding elixirs, spiritual stones and other materials."
"These ten elixirs, please help me change them into top-grade spiritual stones first."
Ye Qin hummed faintly to show his understanding.
Then, Ye Qin took the storage bag with a large number of spiritual stones handed over by another deacon and walked to the gathering place.
Several deacons next to the counter quickly calculated their merits and couldn't help but look at each other. If it is not unexpected, this Elder Ye of the Purple Sword Palace has entered the top 100 of the Golden Elixir Demon Killing List in one breath. It is not a problem at all. The problem is only the specific ranking.
Ye Qin did not have any excitement. He held a storage bag containing a large number of top-grade spiritual stones, but was a little annoyed.
You know, for every shot fired by a large-winged warship, it consumes the aura of 10,000 top-grade spirit stones.
Perform a volley, and ten cannons bombarded together, which is 100,000 spiritual stones on the road.
When the beast tide broke out half a month ago, he was forced to take out the big wing warship and shot at the beast tide at least five times before escaping from the beast tide in time.
Indeed, he killed a lot of monsters, which greatly increased his achievements.
However, the spirit cannon destroyed the demon elixir and corpse of the monster. He failed to get any elixir and materials, but the spirit stone consumed too much and did not return the cost at all. These more than ten elixirs were obtained by him before killing monsters with flying swords.
If it weren't for the sake of his life, he would never have bombarded the monsters with a warship and made such a loss-making business.
In fact, under normal circumstances, no fairy palace or monk will take a warship to bombard monsters in exchange for merit. It's too much to lose money. Killing monsters with magic weapons such as flying swords and runes is the lowest cost to earn money.
Only under special circumstances, at the critical moment of life and death, regardless of the cost of the spiritual stone, can the warship be used.
The monks of the Purple Sword Palace and the League Palace reported their merits respectively. After receiving the reward, they left the Tiandao League branch hall and found more than a dozen pavilions in the city as temporary residences. Some monks went out and continued to look for the defeated monks from the battlefield.
A few days later, Zhou Gongzhu and many other Yuanying monks finally arrived in Xiaguang City with a large number of Jindan monks who were defeated from the battlefield. In addition, Ye Qin, Zhou Yi and others sent out to search, and also found many Jindan monks back.
The lords and elders of the fairy palace gathered their own Jindan disciples to deal with post-war affairs.
After explaining some affairs to the disciples of the Purple Sword Palace, the owner of the Zhou Palace met Ye Qin alone.
"Lord of the Palace!"
Ye Qin stepped into a wing room on the top floor of the Pavilion of the Purple Sword Palace and met Zhou Yu, the owner of the Purple Sword Palace.
Master Zhou was standing in front of the window with his eyebrows condensed. His face was frosty, and his temples seemed to have a lot of blue and gray hair. Obviously, the previous defeat suffered a huge blow.
In the past few days when Ye Qin was in Xiaguang City, he heard a lot of news about the recent large-scale outbreak of beast tide in the Blood Sea. However, the [truth] of it is not high, and I'm afraid only Lord Zhou can solve his doubts.
"Elder Ye, sit down!"
When Master Zhou saw Ye Qin coming, he waved his hand tiredly.
After Ye Qin sat down, the owner of the Zhou Palace slowly said, "This time, the large-scale beast tide of demon cultivation suddenly broke out, and there was no expectation in advance, so that the losses were heavy. The stone city built by our Purple Sword Palace and our allies' Fairy Palace has been destroyed, and six Yuanying monks have been damaged, which can be said to have suffered heavy losses. The only thing that comforted me was that the Jindan monk lost about 10%, which also saved the vitality of the fairy palace.
Ye Qin silently collected after listening to it.
There are more than four or five hundred golden elixir monks, about 40% or more than forty or fifty.
In such a large-scale outbreak of beasts, under such a critical and chaotic situation, only about one-dred of the golden elixir monks were lost, which is fortunate.
If the Yuanying monks hadn't rushed to the front and contained the strongest group of demon practitioners, the Jindan monks would have rushed out of the encirclement of the beast tide in time, otherwise the result would have been unimaginable. The most tragic possibility is that it is not impossible to be completely destroyed.
"In this situation, what does the palace owner have to do?"
"Long before the war, I and the elders of Taishang had estimated that this kind of failure might occur. The fairy and demon war is already very difficult, and it is normal to have a small defeat. Even the whole line was defeated, and there was such an experience in the immortal world in the East China Sea.
Seeing Ye Qin silently, the owner of the Zhou Palace sighed and continued, "Although he has lost, he can't give up easily before the election of the northern suzerain of the Tiandao League. I decided to continue to fight."
"So what to do next?"
After Ye Qin heard this, there was no accident. He had guessed before that with the nature of Lord Zhou, he would not easily lose confidence because of a defeat.
Master Zhou pondered for a long time and said, "There is only one last year left, and it is meaningless to build another stone city. This palace has an old friendship with Master Jiang of Baoxia Palace. This time, he is preparing to rely on Xiaguang City for the time being to lead the Yuanying monks to continue to hunt and kill the demon monks, obtain meritorious deeds, and strive for the last opportunity to win the throne of the northern patriarch. In the rest of the time, Elder Ye continued to lead the golden elixir monks of the Purple Sword Palace with Yi'er to hunt monsters and get as many merits as possible. Now the situation is difficult, and we need to go all out.
"Okay!"
After listening to this, Ye Qin did not hesitate and agreed directly.
His agreement with Master Zhou has not yet been completed, so he naturally can't retreat. There is only one last year left. Anyway, finish the task of killing monsters first.
Master Zhou then asked Ye Qin about some information on the way out of the siege before leaving the pavilion and going to other parts of the city.
As for Ye Qin's possession of a large-winged warship, Master Zhou was slightly surprised, but he didn't pay attention to it. As early as a few years ago, when Ye Qin clashed with Wang Shiwei, the master of the young palace in front of the Wanluo Palace, he vaguely knew that Ye Qin had a small warship in his hand. With Ye Qin's alchemy master and financial resources, it is still possible to build a junior-level small magic ship.
