The sun sets and the glow gradually fades.
At the Dark Guild outpost, there was a "rustling" sound, and a pale arm suddenly stretched out from the grave-like ruins, like a broken and withered poplar tree.
Flutter!
The birds that were jumping around in the ruins looking for food all scattered.
"Woo, woo, woo!"
The plague hyena that was gnawing on the corpse howled excitedly, calling its friends to show off its hoarse throat.
The monsters licked their scarlet tongues, drooled, and stretched out their four slender legs like bamboo poles to surround the arms. Some of them started biting and fighting over who would eat first.
A hyena took advantage of a fight between its companions and suddenly pounced on their arms, taking the initiative to bite them.
The other hyenas scolded it for being shameless and rushed over.
They opened their bloody mouths and madly bit the delicious food that suddenly appeared.
Boom!
The ruins exploded like a volcanic eruption, and the hyena that was biting my arm was instantly burned to ashes.
The remaining hyenas whimpered, tucked their tails between their legs, and fled.
The pillar of fire shot up into the sky and lasted for an incense stick of time before it stopped, as if entering the sage time.
"Chang Ping, Ye Zong, I will never forgive you!" Shen Hong climbed out of the charred "crater" and howled to the sky.
His arms were covered in blood, revealing the horrifying white bones. It was a horrible sight.
Shen Hong released his soul power, detecting survivors in the ruins like a radar.
Two lines of blood and tears flowed down his dirty old face.
Except for himself, no one else who escaped was spared.
Considering that the family that remained in the City of Light had probably been destroyed and their property was confiscated, and now he was probably the only one left in the entire Sacred Family, a sense of sadness welled up in Shen Hong's heart.
"I, Shen Hong, swear to the heavens that I will tear Ye Zong, Chang Ping, and Shen Xiu into pieces to pay tribute to the souls of my clansmen in heaven."
After venting his anger, Shen Hong took out medicine from his space ring and applied it on his injured arm.
Then, he used his soul power to move the broken corpses of his tribesmen out of the ruins, gathered them together, covered them with rubble, and piled them into a large grave mound.
He made a simple tombstone and engraved on it - Tomb of the Holy Heroes.
After doing all this, Shen Hong straightened up. He looked around and prepared to find a shelter nearby temporarily, waiting for the people from the Dark Guild to arrive and meet up with them.
"Um?"
Shen Hong suddenly sensed that a large group of strangers were approaching rapidly.
They were a group of hunters wearing simple animal skins, with sallow complexions and thin bodies, obviously suffering from long-term malnutrition.
Their weapons were extremely simple and varied, including stone spears, iron swords, hardwood bows, and clubs full of fangs.
"Who are you?" Shen Hong looked at the hunters around him, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eagle eyes.
"We are people living on the Tianyun Plateau. Who are you?" The leading yellow-haired hunter was holding a pair of copper hammers. He looked at the ragged Shen Hong. When he saw the space ring on Shen Hong's hand, greed appeared in his eyes.
Tianyun Plateau?
Shen Hong frowned sinisterly.
How come I haven't heard of this place?
Is there any other human beings alive besides the City of Glory?
Shen Hong showed a sinister smile on his face.
…
In the evening, it was dusk.
In the Alchemist Association's boardroom, Chang Ping was typing away on the keyboard, helping Yang Xin sort through a massive amount of correspondence.
Yang Xin was concentrating on refining the Soul-Quenching Pill in the alchemy room.
Ever since Nie Li Laodeng sent over five pill recipes, the Alchemist Association has been operating at full capacity.
The pills would be sold out as soon as they were made. In order to meet the needs of the huge consumer group, the Alchemist Association had to work overtime and frantically make them day and night.
This is not just to make money, but also to enhance the overall strength of the City of Glory. The stronger the warriors and demon masters are, the more secure the City of Glory will be. Therefore, the Alchemist Association has an obligation to do so.
As a director of the Alchemist Association, Yang Xin naturally has to lead by example.
"Oh~" Chang Ping sighed.
The more popular the Alchemist Association's pill business is, the more uncomfortable Chang Ping feels, because the more pills he sells, the more dividends Nie Li and Lao Deng will get.
"Although I may be attacked by the Dark Guild, I will still go to the Gulan City Ruins tomorrow. Only by going to the Gulan City Ruins can I be richer than Nie Li and Lao Deng." Chang Ping clenched his fists with a firm look.
After sorting out the information, Chang Ping opened the Zhutian Trading Network on his laptop.
What he deleted was just the shortcut; the software remained in the computer.
"Huh? Updated?" After Chang Ping controlled the mouse and clicked the software, instead of entering the software, an update progress bar popped up.
The update took about two incense sticks of time, and the software was reinstalled and loaded automatically.
When you enter the software interface, a pop-up window appears.
The information displayed above said that a new world called "Fantasy Beast Palu" had been added to the Zhutian Trading Network, and everyone could get a "Palu Ball" for free today.
"Free?" Chang Ping's heart moved, and he immediately typed in the search bar - Fantasy Beast Palu.
He was so moved that he wanted to cry.
"It's not easy. After all these days, I finally have something I can get for free!"
The palu ball worth 0 gold coins ranked first on the best-selling list. Chang Ping was not blind and found it immediately.
Click to buy.
Whoosh!
A vortex appeared on the laptop screen, and a spit-like spit spurted out towards Chang Ping's face.
Chang Ping was quick to catch it in time.
Holding the palu ball, Chang Ping observed it carefully.
The palu ball is a small ball that Shen Xiu can catch with one hand.
There was a faint blue light flickering in the sphere, giving it a weird and mysterious feeling.
Suddenly, a strange memory flooded into Chang Ping's mind. It was the instruction manual of the Palu ball.
As long as you beat "Palu" to a low health, throw the Palu Ball at it, and the Palu Ball will automatically suck Palu into the ball and turn it into your loyal servant. The subdued Palu will obey your orders unconditionally, and even if you want to kill it, it will not run away or resist.
The Palu Ball can not only recapture Palu, it can recapture all living things, including humans.
"My goodness, they can even recapture people?!" Chang Ping was so shocked that the dried fish in his mouth dropped.
However, the Palu Ball is a one-time item. After you capture a Palu, you are bound to that Palu. If you kill that Palu, the Palu Ball will also break.
Moreover, it is impossible to buy another Palu ball because Changping does not have the gold coins from the Palu world.
Chang Ping carefully put the palu ball into his pinky ring; he was not going to use it now.
Such an awesome thing can only be used by monsters with ancient bloodline.
There are four kinds of bloodlines of monsters: ordinary bloodline, dragon bloodline, ancient bloodline, and prehistoric bloodline.
The ancient bloodline is the strongest among the monsters. It is said that the big boss of "Demon God Chronicles", Saint Emperor, is actually a monster with ancient bloodline.
