After watching the captain leave, Xu Qing fell silent.

Although he still didn’t know the details of the big deed the captain was talking about, he had a rough guess. He understood that this trip wouldn’t be short.

Hence, he decided to apply for a long leave first and buy all kinds of things he needed for the next three days. After everything was prepared, Xu Qing returned to the Sword Pavilion and took out the eye of the Black Heaven Race that Ghost Hand had given him to study.

This item was mystical and possessed some enhancement effects to spirit. However, when Xu Qing used the power of the Purple Moon Heavenly Palace to control it, it underwent an abnormal change.

Three days pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye.

During these three days, every time dusk fell, the sky in the county capital would be a little different from usual. Perhaps it was because of the season, but the sky was no longer dim yellow but red.

It dyed the ground and all the buildings red like blood.

It was hard to tell if it was an auspicious sign or an ominous sign.

It was the same for three consecutive days.

Standing in the Sword Pavilion, Xu Qing looked at the sky. For some reason, he suddenly felt some uneasiness in his heart. This feeling came very suddenly but quickly dissipated.

Xu Qing revealed a puzzled expression. He had never sensed such a feeling before. Now that he thought about it, it was as though this sense of uneasiness came from his life-bound mosasaur.

Just as Xu Qing was pondering, a person walked over from the red glow.

It was the captain.

He rushed over excitedly. When he saw Xu Qing, he chuckled and performed a series of hand seals to set up an array formation in the surroundings. He then got Xu Qing to activate the Sword Pavilion’s array formation. After blocking the surroundings, he spoke mysteriously.

“Little Qing, everything is ready. This time, it’s just the two of us. I won’t call the others.”

“I originally wanted to call out to Ning Yan, but after this kid pa.s.sed the a.s.sessment, he actually disappeared. I searched for a long time but couldn’t find him. Could it be that he knows that I want to use him as a meat shield?”

The captain sighed regretfully.

Xu Qing was also surprised when he heard this. After some thought, he asked.

“Will there be any problem if he doesn’t partic.i.p.ate?”

“It originally had a great impact, but with the recordings on the Black Heaven Race you gave me, it doesn’t matter if Ning Yan partic.i.p.ates or not.” The captain’s eyes revealed a glint as he spoke in a low voice.

“Little Qing, we won’t act rashly this time. We’ll use our intelligence. I’ll bring you to… the Holy Wave Race!”

Xu Qing fell into deep thought.

“Are we going to the Holy Wave Race by pretending to be from the Black Heaven Race?”

The captain laughed and beamed with joy.

“Little Qing, you understand me best. That’s right, we’re going to the Holy Wave Race this time by pretending to be Black Heaven Race. Think about it, the Holy Wave Race is a slave of the Black Heaven Race. We’ll pretend to be their master and all our plans will progress smoothly.”

Xu Qing nodded. There were still many details that needed to be resolved. However, the captain was clearly very talented in disguise, so Xu Qing wasn’t worried about these details.

He a.n.a.lyzed the general direction and felt that this matter could be carried out.

“Where are we going in the Holy Wave Race?” Xu Qing asked.

“The Holy Wave Race’s Great Wilderness East County!” The captain said in a low voice.

“In the Holy Wave Large Region, there are 14 counties. Among them, this Great Wilderness East County borders Fenghai County. There’s a strange land inside called the True Immortal Ten Guts!”

Xu Qing’s gaze froze. He didn’t know much about the Holy Wave Race but when he heard this name, he still instinctively felt a little strange and uncomfortable all over.

Noticing Xu Qing’s expression, the captain spoke in a low voice.

“Do you think this name is very strange? True Immortal Ten Guts. It refers to ten mutated trees that meander like intestines.”

“The True Immortal Ten Guts have existed for an extremely long time. Before the G.o.d arrived, its territory covered more than half of the region. They were worshiped by all races in this region.”

“It’s said that at that time, everything in this region was covered by the branches of this tree. There were countless corpses hanging on them, and they were all sacrificed to It. It’s said that this way, one can obtain a blessing. Even the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether didn’t stop this custom of this region.”

“Of course, this is because there’s a legend about this True Immortal Ten Guts.” The captain’s eyes revealed a dark glint.

“Legend has it that this True Immortal Ten Guts was transformed from the last member of the Calamity Immortal Race who became an immortal countless years ago!”

Xu Qing’s gaze froze.

“The Calamity Immortal Race is mysterious and unfathomable. They think that the intestine is the core of the life that originates everything. At the moment of immortal ascension, one must open up their body and use it to release the spiritual intestine into the world, and absorb the nutrients of the world.”

“Legend has it that this Calamity Immortal Race’s cultivator succeeded in the end. He transformed into a true immortal of the w.a.n.ggu Continent, and this True Immortal Ten Guts was his main body… However, the G.o.d arrived and imprisoned him, and he is now in a deep sleep.”

As the captain spoke, he took out an apple and a peach. He handed the apple to Xu Qing, while he took a bite of the peach and continued to speak.

“This is a true immortal?” Xu Qing took a deep breath. This was different from the immortal he had imagined.

“You didn’t expect immortals to be like this, right? Little Qing, your understanding of this world is still insufficient. You have to learn more from Eldest Senior Brother in the future.” The captain bit the peach with a smug expression.

Xu Qing felt that it made sense and nodded seriously.

The captain’s eyes were filled with deep meaning as he spoke softly.

“What do you think immortals are like? We humans think of them as sage-like existences who have left the world and are ethereal.”

“However, the perception of every race is different. The Calamity Immortal Race thinks that immortals are the ten intestines, while the many nonhuman races portray immortals in all kinds of appearances.”

“In the future, we will go to many places, and you will see countless strange things.”

“This world is very fun.” The captain smiled.

Xu Qing’s heart stirred as he looked into the distance.

The captain’s voice continued.

“The trees of the True Immortal Ten Guts extend into an endless jungle. We’re going there this time!”

“That True Immortal Ten Guts Jungle produces a large number of True Immortal Dao Fruits every hundred years. These fruits have a peculiar appearance, exactly resembling the eyes.” “This fruit can’t be consumed. If you eat it, you’ll go crazy and develop multiple personalities. Even those people from the Grand Affairs Immortal Sect don’t dare to eat it, even though their cultivation art requires multiple personalities.”

“However, this True Immortal Dao Fruit is a rare material for refining artifacts. It can increase the might of the magic artifact by a large extent, so it’s quite expensive.”

“As for the officials of our county, because we don’t trade with the Holy Wave Race, they issue missions to purchase such Dao fruits all year round. Each Dao fruit will give 10,000 military contributions!”

“This time, if we get a few hundred Dao Fruits, won’t that be a few million military contributions?”

“How is it, Little Qing? Isn’t your Eldest Senior Brother amazing? This is the core of the big deed that I dug out after digging for a long time in the Office of Merit Records. Of course, this is only the first target. There are still other things…”

The captain’s expression was a little smug. After eating the peach, he took out another peach and took a bite.

Xu Qing instinctively put on a look of admiration as contemplation appeared in his eyes.

“Junior Brother, can you not be so perfunctory? I was the one who taught you how to change your expression…” The captain looked at Xu Qing eagerly.

Xu Qing nodded. His eyes widened and his expression was filled with disbelief. After that, he calmly spoke.

“Eldest Senior Brother, other than the trees, what other arrangements and dangers are there in the surroundings of the True Immortal Ten Guts? Moreover, the Holy Wave Race should also be looking to pluck such an important item.”

The captain looked at the change in Xu Qing’s expression and reluctantly accepted it. As he ate the peach, he continued to explain his plan.

“That True Immortal Ten Guts is dangerous, but after all, It is in a deep sleep.”

“In the surrounding jungle, because of the existence of the Dao fruits, several small cities have been formed over the countless years. Most of these small countries are subordinate to the four great dynasties in the Holy Wave Large Region,

“Every time the Dao fruits mature, these small cities will be in charge of collecting them and paying tribute to their respective dynasties.”

“There is indeed danger, but with our status as the Black Heaven Race, as long as the details are handled properly, we can succeed!”

The captain licked his lips and madness appeared in his eyes.

“The key to this matter is how we go over. If we go as the Black Heaven Race, it will be a little abrupt,” Xu Qing said softly.

The captain was confident and looked like he had everything planned out.

“Every time the True Immortal Ten Guts Trees’ Dao fruits are close to maturity, they require special nutrients called mica stones. Although they can be produced in other places, there isn’t much of it. Only Fenghai County’s Morning Glow Province produces it abundantly.”

“Therefore, every time these Dao fruit are about to mature, many of the Holy Wave Race’s merchant groups will secretly infiltrate and secretly transport the mica stones. Although the government doesn’t trade with the Holy Wave Race, the Yao family supports the Holy Wave Race.”

“This has always been an important source of income for the Yao family.”

At this point, the captain looked into Xu Qing’s eyes.

“Do you understand what I mean, Little Qing?”

Xu Qing’s eyes gleamed as he spoke softly.

“Let one of the convoys take the initiative to send us into the Holy Wave Race!”

The captain laughed, his eyes shining.

“That’s right!”

“I’ve already planned it out. Back then, I asked you to observe the actions of those few Black Heaven cultivators to disguise ourselves better as Black Heaven cultivators. I’m confident in this matter and I’m also prepared.”

“Although the capture of the Black Heaven Race by the Sword Holding Palace was secretive, I have secretly spread this matter to a target convoy. However, they don’t know how many Black Heaven Race members have been captured.”

“What we have to do next is to put on a show. We need the cooperation of another Sword Holder…”

“You’re close to Kong Xianglong. How about I leave this matter to you?” The captain said in a low voice.

Xu Qing thought about it and nodded.

“Then, it’s settled. We’ll set off tomorrow morning!” The captain took a deep breath and his eyes revealed antic.i.p.ation as he swallowed the peach in his hand.

“Little Qing, we’ll be rich this time and there’s definitely no danger. We’re going over as masters!”

Xu Qing understood. This trip was extremely dangerous but he was very well-prepared. Moreover, once they succeeded, the military contributions gained would indeed be astonishing. Hence, his eyes also revealed antic.i.p.ation. He had an incomparable thirst for military contributions.

As for how the two of them would return after this matter was completed, Xu Qing didn’t ask. He and the captain had done many major things. The rhythm of the two of them was to work together in the early stages and leave it to fate after they succeeded.

After watching the captain leave, Xu Qing took out the voice transmission jade slip and transmitted his voice to Kong Xianglong. He didn’t say everything and only mentioned his request. When Kong Xianglong heard this, he laughed.

“Pretending to be a member of the Black Heaven Race? What an idea. Bring me along!”

“My eldest senior brother and I…” Xu Qing hesitated.

“Uh… then I won’t go. Xu Qing, I know you don’t like to hear it but I still have to remind you. Be careful of your eldest senior brother. His ten feet light means he’s unreliable. Don’t be scammed by him.”

Xu Qing smiled bitterly and chatted with Kong Xianglong for a while more. After agreeing on the details, he ended the voice transmission.

Seeing that it was already late, Xu Qing checked his storage bag. He thought of how the time he was going out this time was uncertain, so he sent a voice transmission to Fairy Zi Xuan to tell her that he was going out.

After doing this, he sat cross-legged and meditated, waiting for dawn.

However… before dawn arrived, someone arrived outside his Sword Pavilion.

She was Fairy Zi Xuan.

After entering the Sword Pavilion, the fragrance on her body filled the entire place. She looked at Xu Qing with a gentle expression as she spoke softly.

“I won’t stop you from going out to do things, but the protection you have isn’t enough. Let me give you something.”

Outside the door behind her beautiful figure, the moonlight was like a river, flowing on her dress and landing on the ground.

Under the moonlight, Zi Xuan seemed to be standing in the moon river. Her elegant expression and gentle gaze were like a lotus flower blooming in the moon river, guarding the peace that belonged to her..
