Chapter 99: Destroy the Marquis Single-handedly
In the quiet and elegant manor, Shen Mu and Yu Lun walked side by side.
"Your Highness, this courtyard is exactly the same as the manor where Your Highness lived in the original secret realm. These three giants are really..."
Yu Lun didn't know how to describe it. After all, the other party was at the peak of the marquis level, so some words were not convenient to say.
Shen Mu smiled and said, "It seems that the hands of these three giants are not ordinary clean."
Shen Mu also shook his head slightly. He was not interested in being a special supervisor of a virtual universe company. In short, as long as these three ministers did not cause trouble during their terms, the rest did not matter.
Just as Shen Mu and Yu Lun were talking, Tuanzi's voice suddenly sounded in Shen Mu's ears.
"Master, Lord Qianwu wants to see you."
Shen Mu was slightly startled, and then he quickly connected a wisp of his consciousness to the virtual universe network and logged into his residence in the Qianwu Temple.
Inside the hall, King Qianwu apparently waited here for a while, and then Shen Mu walked into the hall.
"teacher."
The Lord of Qianwu State took a look at his young disciple, and then said with some emotion: "Since you have come back, my Qianwu Universe State has been in turmoil."
As he spoke, the King of Qianwu gently raised his hand, and a screen of light appeared in front of Shen Mu.
"The ancestor of the Mengyou Empire, Yaohai, has been confirmed to be controlled by the Zerg soul..."
Shen Mu took a quick glance and understood why the teacher had summoned him in a hurry.
The Mengyou Empire is one of the many intermediate countries under the jurisdiction of the Qianwu Universe, and is much stronger than Shen Mu’s hometown, the Black Dragon Mountain Empire.
The ancestor of the Mengyou Empire's royal family, Yaohai, was originally an immortal military lord, and before that a high-level immortal military lord. However, according to the Virtual Universe Company's investigation over the long years.
The immortal god Yao Hai has become a minion of the race and is completely controlled by the soul. He has also practiced a soul secret book from the Zerg. His instantaneous burst of soul attack can barely rival that of a primary immortal.
In order to obtain this information, the Virtual Universe Company has been monitoring this man, Jian Yaohai, for a long period of time, and has been planning to launch a thundering attack to kill him.
What was unexpected was that Shen Mu's arrival this time caused some changes. This treacherous man Yao Hai suddenly mobilized various resources and connections, and got an invitation to the welcoming banquet at almost any cost.
If such an unusual behavior happened to an ordinary immortal, it might just be considered as an attempt to curry favor with Shen Mu.
But if it happened to an immortal controlled by the Zerg soul, it would basically be certain that the Zerg would attack Shen Mu at this welcoming banquet.
"It seems that the Zerg is planning to assassinate my disciples at this welcoming banquet." Shen Mu smiled helplessly and looked at his teacher.
The Lord of Qianwu nodded and said, "That's right, but the Zerg don't know that the spy they buried in my Qianwu Universe for millions of years has been exposed."
"According to the Virtual Universe Company, the welcoming banquet will be held as normal. We will arrange for strong people to protect you. Your master will also take action when necessary."
Shen Mu bowed and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Teacher."
The Lord of Qianwu Kingdom shook his head slightly and said, "You are my direct disciple, so you don't have to be so polite. Also, although you already know the Zerg's assassination plan, you can't be careless, but need to be more vigilant."
"Disciples should remember the teacher's teachings."
……
At Tianyuexing Manor, Shen Mu came back to his senses and looked at Yu Lun beside him.
"Yu Lun, you may have to work hard this time. The teacher just summoned me and told me that I might be assassinated by aliens at this welcoming banquet."
Yu Lun's expression became serious. As the commander of Shen Mu's guard, his duty was to protect Shen Mu's safety at all costs.
“Your Highness, no matter what danger you encounter, Yu Lun will stand in front of you. But your safety is a matter of great importance, and I am just an ordinary immortal who has not even reached the level of a marquis…”
Shen Mu laughed and said, "Don't worry, the company has already made arrangements in this regard."
After communicating with Yu Lun, Shen Mu entered the retreat room of this manor. The retreat room here is not comparable to the original secret realm, but it is also made of F-grade metal, which is relatively safe.
"The spiritual power has been nourished for such a long time, it should be able to recognize the master."
Shen Mu's mind moved, and a transparent crystal ball appeared out of thin air in front of him. To be precise, it was a multi-faceted sphere with a total of 10081 facets, and there was a faint strange magic sound flowing.
It was the soul-defending treasure that was obtained when he passed the inheritance of the Demonic Sound God. Although it was just an ordinary treasure, it was already extremely precious.
The more powerful the treasures and weapons are, the longer it takes for them to recognize their master. Even the most basic controller of the Nine Divine Weapons needs to use mental power to nurture them for a period of time before they can leave a mental mark.
It naturally takes more time for a valuable treasure to recognize its owner. Moreover, with Shen Mu's realm of realm master, if he wants to recognize this treasure as his master, he must have the special telekinesis of the Demonic Sound God General.
hum!
A strand of Shen Mu's mental power poured into the gem, and then he tried to imprint his own spiritual mark on it.
boom!
The colorful lights radiated in all directions with the multi-faceted sphere as the center, just like a dazzling colorful sun. The endless colorful lights instantly evolved into a vast world.
"Ang! Woo! Buzz! Hum..."
The eternal ancient pressure and this strange demonic sound instantly swept across most of the courtyard, and many guards who were patrolling fell into coma in an instant.
Not only this group of guards, but also Yu Lun, who had been guarding the entrance to Shen Mu's retreat room, fell into the illusion without any resistance. And this was just a trace of breath leaking out.
call out!
The next moment, the aura of the gem became restrained, and then turned into a stream of light and sank into Shen Mu's forehead.
A series of mysterious and ancient secret patterns appeared on Shen Mu's forehead and then disappeared.
"It is indeed a treasure." Shen Mu couldn't help but speak.
With this magic sound bead guarding Shen Mu's soul, he can be directly immune to any soul attacks below the immortal level.
Immortal-level soul attacks can be weakened a hundred times, which is the most practical ability for Shen Mu.
As for the soul attack of the Venerable level, it can also be weakened tenfold, which is also the limit of this treasure. However, once the Venerable attacks Shen Mu, this tenfold weakening is not necessary at all.
"The soul attacks of the immortal level are weakened a hundred times, and any soul attacks below the marquis level can be ignored."
As for the soul attack at the marquis level, even if it is a soul attack at the peak of the marquis level, as long as it does not burn divine power, it will only be the initial stage of immortality after being weakened a hundred times.
Shen Mu's soul was at the peak of the realm master level, with a soul amplitude a hundred times greater, and basic defense comparable to that of an immortal being. With the protection of his own "Magic Sound Soul Defense" secret technique, he could easily block it.
The Demonic Sound God's inheritance is divided into basic amplitude and three ultimate skills, namely the Demonic Sound attack secret method in the first stage, the Demonic Sound defense secret method in the second stage and the ultimate skill that can only be obtained in the third stage.
"Be careful when facing Fenghou Immortal, the burning divine power is still too strong."
A Marquis-level immortal possesses a power that is 1000 times greater than that of a Realm Lord. Most importantly, he has condensed an immortal body that can burn divine power.
Burning divine power can increase one's own attack by thousands of times. The two are completely on a different level.
Just at this moment, Yu Lun's voice came from outside the retreat room.
"Your Highness, just now..."
Before Yu Lun finished speaking, he was interrupted by Shen Mu: "Don't worry, Yu Lun, I just made the noise when I recognized a special treasure as my master."
Hearing this, Yu Lun outside the door breathed a sigh of relief.
"I don't know what treasure His Highness just claimed as its master... maybe it's the legendary treasure?"
"That's right. With your talent, it's normal for the tribe to give you one or two precious treasures to save your life."
Yu Lun couldn't help but guess what kind of treasure Shen Mu was claiming to be his master. In his understanding, the most powerful treasure was the most valuable treasure.
Even his teacher, King Qingtian, the strongest disciple of Lord Qianwu, did not have a supreme treasure of this level.
...A month passed in a flash, and on Tianyue Star, in the magnificent palace where the banquet was held.
In the main hall of the banquet hall, the three giants of the Qianwu branch stood not far from the door. The laws were pervasive and the surrounding space was faintly distorted.
Powerful figures kept appearing and greeting the three giants, but the three men just dealt with them casually and then continued to wait.
"Golden Feather Marquis, Purple Lightning Marquis, Black Annihilation Marquis!"
A one-horned man in a gorgeous dark golden robe strode over and greeted Hei Yanhou and the other two enthusiastically.
"King Dragon Wing, long time no see!" Jin Yuhou walked up and greeted him with a smile.
This Dragon Wing King was the open class teacher who explained the laws of space to Shen Mu in the Qianwu Secret Realm.
Facing the Dragon Wing King, the three giants were still enthusiastic. After all, this was a strong man who was no weaker than them.
The eighteen divine generals and thirty-two kings under the command of Lord Qianwu are all at the level of marquis. King Longyi is the best among them and is at the peak of the marquis level.
King Longyi looked around the hall and asked in confusion, "Marquis Zidian, why don't I see His Royal Highness Shen Mu, the special envoy of supervision?"
Originally, King Longyi was planning to approach Shen Mu to make peace with him. After all, he had taught this prince a lesson in the past, so he should be able to build a relationship with him. He didn't expect to ask Shen Mu for help, as long as he didn't cause him trouble.
"Your Highness will be here soon." Marquis Zi Dian said softly.
One after another, immortal gods came with their subordinates, and the three giants of Qianwu branch received them one by one, but more and more people gathered around them.
If you observe carefully, you will find that the immortals around the three giants are all immortals with extremely powerful strength and status.
However, some other immortals with weaker strength had already entered the banquet hall and started chatting in twos and threes.
"His Highness Shen Mu has arrived!"
Someone announced loudly, and immediately a group of people looked over.
A young man in white walked into the hall, his long hair casually tied behind his back, and a faint light and brightness could be seen flowing in his eyes.
Marquis Hei Yan said with a smile: "Everyone, I don't need to introduce His Highness Shen Mu in detail, but many people may not know that His Highness Shen Mu is now known as a peerless genius who appears once in hundreds of millions of epochs!"
A marquis-level deity came up to greet him enthusiastically: "Your Highness, welcome back to Qianwu Universe. I am Ding Tianhou."
Shen Mu smiled and said, "When I was in Qianwu Secret Realm, I had the honor of attending Senior Ding Tianhou's open class."
"Haha, Your Highness, do you still remember me, Old Dragon?"
"..."
As Shen Mu arrived, many immortal gods came forward to greet him warmly and surrounded Shen Mu in the center.
Beside Shen Mu, the three giants of the Qianwu branch also followed and introduced the identities of these immortal gods to Shen Mu.
Among the many immortal gods, a handsome young man wearing emerald green armor and with a strange crystal embedded on his forehead also approached Shen Mu unknowingly.
Soon, the young man in green armor approached Shen Mu.
"Your Highness, Your Highness...I am Yao Hai!"
Yao Hai approached Shen Mu with a fawning smile on his face, then stretched out his hand and said, "I heard that shaking hands is a kind of etiquette in your hometown?"
Shen Mu looked at the man silently, then said with a smile: "It seems that Mr. Yao Hai has specifically inquired about it. He is thoughtful."
As he spoke, Shen Mu also stretched out his hand and shook hands with Yao Hai.
The next moment, the crystal between the eyebrows of the young man Yao Hai emitted a green light visible to the naked eye, and then a emerald green soul-destroying needle burst out with a strange wave.
Shen Mu and Yao Hai were face to face, and everything happened so fast.
"not good!"
"Yao Hai is a traitor!"
At the first moment, many immortal gods noticed the change and quickly took action to protect Shen Mu.
The one who reacted the fastest was Jin Yuhou. The change in the law of space he understood was limited teleportation, which was one of the strongest variations under the teleportation trick.
The specific effect is somewhat similar to teleportation. As long as you leave the divine power coordinates within a certain range, you can teleport directly there. The only difference from teleportation is that you can't flash at will.
call out!
With a flash of golden light, Jin Yuhou appeared directly in front of Shen Mu, blocking the attack of the soul-destroying needle.
In addition to Jin Yuhou, there is another person whose reaction speed is no slower than Jin Yuhou.
The terrifying extreme cold divine power burst out instantly, as if the surrounding space was frozen, directly enveloping Yao Hai.
"Is your Highness all right?"
In the extremely cold divine light, a giant about ten meters tall smashed the Yaohai with one palm, and then looked at Shen Mu. He was King Hansui, a peak-level powerful man who was no weaker than King Longyi.
Shen Mu's originally clear eyes became haggard and turbid, and his gaze fell on King Hansui.
"Han Sui, I didn't expect that even you were controlled by the aliens."
An old and hoarse voice came out of Shen Mu's mouth, causing everyone's expression to change slightly.
When King Hansui made his move just now, his aura had already locked onto Shen Mu. Even though it finally landed on Yao Hai, Shen Mu still noticed it.
"If Jin Yu hadn't blocked in front of me immediately, your target would not be Yao Hai, but me."
As soon as he finished speaking, a dreamy bubble suddenly appeared around Shen Mu's body, and then the bubble suddenly burst.
The high-spirited young man Shen Mu has disappeared, replaced by an old man with a hunched back and his life force fading.
"Master Special Minister!"
"Senior Techen!"
When the many marquises and immortals present saw the special minister appear, they hurriedly bowed and saluted, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.
Even Jin Yuhou and the other two looked respectful and said, "Greetings, Senior Techen!"
King Hansui looked at the special minister with cold sweat and said, "Master Special Minister, have you misunderstood me? I..."
Techen raised his hand slightly, and invisible waves instantly enveloped the entire Tianyue Star.
The entire ancient life star fell into a state of space blockade at this moment, and then a huge hand stretched out.
At this moment, Te Chen even burned a little bit of his divine power. His palm seemed to have no change, but he performed a special spatial change, similar to the Buddha Kingdom in the palm of his hand, and instantly suppressed King Hansui.
"No need to explain, just go to hell."
With a slight twist of his palm, the special minister killed a powerful man at the peak of the marquisate.
This scene immediately made countless people present more respectful.
The rumors back then were indeed true. At that time, the Special Minister won the duel with the King's second disciple, King Qingtian. With such strength, he could easily kill a peak marquis.
The special minister raised his head and looked around with cloudy eyes. No one dared to look at him, and no one dared to breathe, for fear that he would suspect them of being alien spies.
"Jin Yu, His Highness's safety is above all else. Please end this welcoming banquet here."
The special minister looked at the three giants of the Virtual Universe Company and gave them orders directly. The three giants did not dare to disobey and could only nod in agreement.
