I Just Won’t Play by the Book

?? "Come! Drink!"

With a bang, Ji Qinglin smashed a wine jar on the table.

?? "I'm not good at drinking, Master Ji, why don't we drink tea instead?"

?? "What's the point of drinking tea? This is the best Jinbochun. I'd be reluctant to take it out for him to drink." the entire account.

?? "Smell, can you hold back the aroma of this wine?" Ji Qinglin took out a porcelain bowl and immediately handed it to Jiang Beiran, and at the same time two options appeared in front of Jiang Beiran.

?? But Jiang Beiran thought that he would have to leave later, and he really didn't want to drink at the moment, so he waved his hand and said, "Master Ji, I really can't drink."

?? "I've filled you up with wine. If you don't drink it, you won't give me face."

?? As soon as Ji Qinglin finished speaking, two options appeared in front of Jiang Beiran.

??【Option 1: Take the porcelain bowl and drink it. Completion reward: Wujin Yaoshu (high-grade Xuan-level)]

??[Option 2: "You have to let me drink, but you just don't give me face." Completion reward: +1 random basic attribute point]

??'Um? ’

?? Looking at option one, Jiang Beiran couldn't help frowning.

??'what happened? Could it be that the wine is poisonous? ’

?? However, Jiang Beiran immediately rejected the idea. After all, from Ji Qinglin's perspective, why would it be so troublesome to kill him, and would he need to rely on poisoned wine?

?? Jiang Beiran, who couldn't think of a reason for a while, chose the second and said: "You have to let me drink it, but you just don't give me face."

?? [Optional task completed, reward: Spirit +1]

??"Huh?" Ji Qinglin squinted at Jiang Beiran for a while, and then smiled: "As expected, there is no more than three...four that Shengguo dares to speak to me like this."

?? 'Is that so specific...'

?? He spit out a groove in his heart, and Jiang Beiran responded: "I am really not good at drinking, and I also invited Ji's leader Haihan."

??"Okay, okay, then I'll take it as you are not good at drinking." Ji Qinglin said that he put the wine jar again, sat opposite Jiang Beiran and said, "Since you don't need wine to cheer, let's talk like this, Talk about what you think."

?? "I don't know what Master Ji is referring to?"

?? "Nature is the future of Shengguo."

?? 'Did you raise the topic so high as soon as it came up? ’

?? After thinking for a moment, Jiang Beiran replied: "The first step is naturally to concentrate the living strength of Shengguo."

??"and then?"

?? "Far and close attack, slowly and slowly."

?? "Ha!" Ji Qinglin slammed the table, "I didn't expect you to be a moderate like my master, but have you ever thought about what our Shengguo would do with other people's diplomacy?"

"Then I don't know where Master Ji thinks the way out for Shengguo?"

?? "Explore the mystery!"

?? "..."

?? Seeing Ji Qinglin say these three words seriously, Jiang Beiran suddenly understands where the difference between him and Yin Jianghong is.

?? On the map of Xuanlong Continent, there are various places full of visions.

?? For example, the Anbei Plain, where the gravity is far higher than other areas, such as the throne mountain, which is half flame and half frost, such as the Ghost Crow Forest, where the poisonous insects are bigger than people...

?? But when it comes to the most famous and most terrifying place of vision, it must be Mysterious Island.

?? Xuanji Island is located in the southernmost section of Xuanlong Continent. At the beginning, its name was Black Mist Island, because it was shrouded in black mist all year round, hence the name.

?? At the beginning, because the situation in the black mist could not be seen from the outside, the fear of the unknown blocked the footsteps of many strong people to explore.

?? But no matter which world you are in, there will always be warriors.

?? In the second year of the discovery of Black Mist Island, a strong man from the Profound King Realm broke in, but he never came out again, and no one knew his life or death.

?? Since then, Kurokijima has been shrouded in a mysterious veil, making countless people stay away.

?? However, just like no world is short of warriors, no world is short of stunners.

?? The disappearance of the Profound King made most cultivators feel fear, but it also made a small number of cultivators smell the taste of opportunity.

?? Most of them have a very provocative (zuo) and (private) spirit. After analyzing a lot of what is there and not, they entered the Kuroki Island in batches.

?? One year, two years, three years.

?? Ten people, a hundred people, a thousand people.

?? When more and more powerhouses entered Heiguri Island one after another, but no one ever came back alive, these stunned youth finally knew how to write fear.

?? This black fog island is like a machine that harvests people's lives. Even if it is as strong as Xuanzong, it will not be able to survive and return from it.

?? But just when everyone was about to list Heiguri Island as a forbidden place, a man named Duan Yuan suddenly came out of the black fog.

?? This makes those "best friends" who are guarding outside Kuroki Island overjoyed, and they are glad that their persistence for so many years has not been in vain.

?? And when they greeted Duan Yuan, something even more surprising happened to them.

?? Duan Yuan actually broke through to the Xuanzun realm in one fell swoop! And it is already the fifth rank of Xuanzun! After knowing Xuanzun, it is very difficult to improve each rank.

Zun was definitely regarded as the strongest in the world at that time.

What is even more amazing is that before Duan Yuan entered the Black Mist Island two years ago, he was just a Profound King. In just two years, from Profound King to the fifth rank of Profound Venerable, this is something that no one can imagine. promotion speed.

?? But when people asked what Duan Yuan experienced in the Black Mist Island, Duan Yuan replied...

?? "I don't remember anything."

?? That's right, although Jiu Yuan's cultivation base has become extremely powerful, his memory still remains when he first entered Kuroki Island, and the memory of the two years in Kuroki Island after that seems to have been completely erased. Not even a little picture or sound was left.

?? But no matter what, the ascension of Duan Yuan's cultivation realm is real, which also makes those cultivators who were about to give up regain their confidence and step into the Black Mist Island again.

?? After that, five more people came back from the Black Mist Island one after another, and the most powerful one was already at the peak of Xuanzun, and he was only one step away from advancing to the Xuansheng realm.

?? Xuansheng is already the most powerful person on this continent, all under the legendary Xuandi.

?? But in the same way, these five people do not have any memory at all in Kuroki Island, no matter whether it is five years or ten years, all of them have no memory left.

??In the end, the six people who came out of Heiguri Island became strong, but none of these six people forbade other practitioners from entering Heiguri Island, and even strictly prohibited some sect generals with ulterior motives from Heiguri Island. Circle for your own chassis.

?? The sternness of the words is completely to say that whoever dares to treat Kurokiri Island as his own is to be the enemy of the six of them.

?? This makes all cultivators feel very strange. Logically speaking, if a person digs a gold mine in a certain place, then he will definitely try to hide the place for himself, but these six Individuals not only did not do this, but even encouraged others to dig together.

?? This is simply incredible.

?? Such an abnormal behavior naturally attracted everyone's imagination, and some people thought that only people with such a mind could get the recognition of Kurokishima and come out of it.

?? Some people think that these six people want to find more companions. Maybe one day, one person will come back with all the memories in Kuroki Island and tell them what is inside.

?? There is also a small group of people who think that these six people have actually been brainwashed by the people in Kuroki Island, and they come back to let more people die in Kuroki Island.

??…

?? It's just that rumors are rumors after all. Most people see only substantial benefits. King Xuan goes in and Emperor Xuan comes out. Where can such good things be found?

?? The existence of these six people is like announcing loudly to the whole world.

?? "Want to get the same power as us? If you want, I'll give it to you, go find it! Everything in the world is there!"

?? For a time, the era of the Great Black Mist begins, from the Xuanshi to the Xuanzun, those who want to "get rich overnight", those who want to explore the truth, and those who want to continue to improve themselves...

?? With various purposes, countless practitioners entered the Black Mist Island without looking back.

?? It was also from that time that the name of Kuroki Island became Xuanji Island, which means the island of finding opportunities.

?? However, after a full ten years!

?? But no one came out of Kuroki Island.

?? You must know that in the past ten years, hundreds of thousands of cultivators have entered Kurokijima. This number can be said to be quite staggering.

?? But so many people have never returned from Xuanji Island, which makes countless cultivators with dreams and luck finally come to their senses.

When I looked up again, the mysterious island in front of me was no longer a holy place full of opportunities, but a terrifying monster with a bloody mouth, as if it was going to devour the practitioners of the entire Xuanlong Continent. .

?? In the future, there will still be iron-headed practitioners who choose to enter Xuanji Island every year, but the number has not been as large as before. Since then, Xuanji Island has become a forbidden place full of legends in the eyes of most people.

?? Because there was too much uproar back then, not to mention the practitioners knew about it, even many ordinary people knew about it, and even some desperados would choose to go to Xuanji Island for a fight when they were desperate.

?? Of course, in the end none of them came out alive.

?? Jiang Beiran has naturally heard the famous name of Xuanji Island when he first joined the sect, but most people have only regarded Xuanji Island as a famous place these days.

?? Just like everyone knows Mount Everest, but few people who know it will think about climbing and conquering it.

?? 'Really... the master is by my side, no, it should be said that death is by my side. ’

?? Jiang Beiran never thought that Ji Qinglin would have the idea of ​​going to Xuanji Island. No matter how he thought about it, it was a waste.

?? Seeing Jiang Beiran stunned, Ji Qinglin asked seriously: "I know you think this idea is crazy and unrealistic, but I think you are the real unrealistic."

??"I know your idea is to attach to a powerful country, and then slowly accumulate your own strength to replace it, but are they so stupid? They are stupidly waiting to be replaced by us? If they are so stupid, then it is impossible Become one of the great powers competing for dominance in the world.”

?? This is simply incredible.
