Assassin Seven, starting in Shennong Kingdom!

Chapter 183 The Appearance of the Bright King

Above the devastated ruins where Qin Ming fought the great demon, two figures appeared almost immediately after Qin Ming left.

"Are you confident, Yating?"

"Tsk."

The burly man beside him looked annoyed. "Didn't you say? We'll only know after we fight! And another thing! My name is Seven Knives! How many times have I told you? Are you deaf?!" (He turned around and roared angrily)

Ayan replied, "Oh, I see, Yating."

"You &@*￥（）!"

Whoosh!

The two continued their pursuit, one in front of the other.

Soon after, the two stopped and looked ahead with serious expressions.

At this moment, Qin Ming found another great demon, a young man dressed in a yellow robe. He had a smiling face and delicate features, like a scholar, but the spirit emanating from him gave the two of them a sense of dread!

They exchanged a glance and tacitly hid away.

The figure in the yellow robe looked at Qin Ming, narrowed his eyes, and smiled, saying, "Laojun sent you, didn't he? You don't need to explain. I can't find anyone else here besides him. So, tell me, what brings you here?"

Qin Ming said bluntly, "I'd like to learn from you."

"Oh?"

The other person's smile remained unchanged, then they opened their eyes slightly, revealing golden pupils.

He grinned, revealing a fang. "Not bad, but didn't Laozi tell you what the price of provoking me is?!"

boom! !

In an instant, Qin Ming felt a terrifying tremor coming from the void dozens of meters away beneath his feet!

Spirit Controlling System·Earth + Spirit Controlling System·Wood!

The power created by combining the two is Spirit Wood!

"The spirit wood immortal's spirit wood ability is extraordinary; it cannot be burned by ordinary fire-type abilities. If you want to challenge him, you'd better be careful."

"understood."

Lao Jun knew that Qin Ming wanted to challenge other demons, and gave him a lot of advice.

boom! !

As Qin Ming raised his hand, a beam of fire descended from the sky, directly covering a large area of ​​forest, including those terrifying giant trees that looked like countless monstrous pythons soaring into the sky.

In an instant, flames filled the air, turning the sky a deep red.

"what?"

The Spirit Wood Immortal was shocked. The reason was simple: part of his spirit wood had been burned, and countless giant trees had turned into charcoal and peeled off.

But then he raised his hand again, and this time, an even larger giant tree swept over everything!

Qin Ming did not attempt to continue using fire because these giant trees were growing too fast!

He also discovered that the flames falling on it did not burn indefinitely; instead, they quickly went out!

Is this the spirit wood?

His figure darted and weaved through the air, constantly dodging, but these giant trees seemed endless. Qin Ming raised his hand and threw a punch.

Thump! Rumble!!

The terrifying force shattered a giant tree into pieces, but for some unknown reason, the ground several hundred meters away suddenly cracked open, as if it had been bombarded by a missile!

"Bastard!"

The Spirit Wood Immortal was enraged, but at the same time, he was secretly alarmed.

The reason his spirit tree is so powerful is because it is connected to the earth's veins and cannot be easily destroyed, not even by fire-type abilities!

But the force of Qin Ming's punch just now actually affected the earth veins he was connected to!

This is his foundation, his opportunity to become an immortal!

Enraged, the spirit tree spread even more frantically toward Qin Ming.

The battle lasted a full day, ending with the Spirit Wood Immortal injured and Qin Ming retreating on his own initiative.

……

"That scared the fairy to death! Was that guy really human? It was terrifying! He actually fought the Spirit Wood Immortal like that!"

"Shh! Stop talking nonsense, this news must be reported to the guild immediately. The emergence of such a monster among humans is huge news!"

……

Fairies are not uncommon in this era, and their contact with humans is also common.

Especially now that the three dynasties of the human world have just collapsed and a new dynasty has been established, all kinds of demons and monsters can no longer hide. Of course, not all demons are bad.

However, Qin Ming's challenge to the Spirit Wood Immortal caused too much of a stir, which attracted many demons.

"Hey, are you sure it's okay? This is too dangerous!"

"Don't worry, I saw it clearly. That guy didn't have much spiritual energy left. Besides, even the Spirit Wood Immortal was injured, how could he be alright!?"

"Uh……"

Ayan and Qidao followed Qin Ming all the way to a forest.

Beneath a waterfall, Qin Ming was gathering spiritual energy.

Transparent, bubble-like spiritual energy continuously gathered from all directions and was gradually absorbed into Qin Ming's body.

The spiritual energy in this world is quite abundant, but the truly good places are actually controlled by powerful demons. They use these places to cultivate, and their speed of gathering spiritual energy far exceeds that of ordinary wild demons.

When Qin Ming first arrived in this realm, there was naturally no such place, so he had to make do.

Two figures gradually approached from the bushes not far away.

Qin Ming didn't react at all. After a few minutes of stalemate, Qin Ming finally sighed, "Aren't you two tired after following me all this way?"

Oh no! We've been exposed!

The two emerged from the jungle, staring intently at Qin Ming.

Ayan hesitated for a moment, then said, "We mean no harm, please don't misunderstand..."

"Did the Ming King send you two?"

The two of them, "...(sweat)"

Already feeling the pressure, Qin Ming knew they had been following him all along, and now that even the Ming King knew, they seemed unsure how to respond.

"Stop dawdling! The King of Ming has ordered us to take you back, it's that simple!"

Qi Dao couldn't take it anymore and immediately attacked, pointing at Qin Ming and saying, "Now, you either come with us obediently, or I'll beat you down and take you away. The choice is yours."

"Hey! Ya-ting, the Ming King says..."

"My name is Seven Knives!" (Roars angrily as he turns around)

Qin Ming, "..."

Sighing, Qin Ming didn't know what to say. These two must be trying to be funny.

He made it so obvious. He knew the two were following him and were confident they could completely defeat the Spirit Wood Immortal, but he still chose to give up. Isn't that obvious enough?

If those two don't show up, he'll keep a watchful eye on them.

However, this is not the fault of the two of them, since they did not know who Qin Ming was.

Qin Ming pointed out with his finger, and the two men's expressions changed slightly. Just as they were about to dodge, they suddenly discovered that two tree roots had appeared under their feet and tightly bound their legs.

"Wood element? Wasn't it supposed to be a life element?!"

"This little piece of wood, I can just...?"

Ayan was somewhat panicked. Qidao tried to break free. As Mingwang's subordinates, they were all undead. They had cultivation potential in life, which is why their souls did not dissipate after death, thus forming undead spirits.

Their talents were naturally quite good, not to mention that they had cultivated under the Ming King for so many years.

However, Qi Dao's attempt to break free failed!

Startled, he realized the problem and looked at Ayan beside him, saying, "Hey! Help!"

"I've already made a move, but it's no use! My abilities can't affect him!"

A light shone in Ayan's eyes as she stared intently into Qin Ming's eyes, but she couldn't affect Qin Ming.

He is a mind-controller, capable of controlling others' actions, but his methods are still far from the terrifying, almost rule-like methods of Laozi.

Boom! !

Seven Blades unleashed even stronger spiritual power, blasting a deep crater beneath his feet. But the piece of wood remained tightly bound to him, advancing instead of retreating, and had already wrapped around his waist!

"Damn it! What the hell is this little piece of wood?! It's so hard!"

Just as the two were struggling, a figure appeared silently behind them.

"Alright, the more you try to control the spirit, the harder the wood becomes. Don't waste living beings."

"Lord Ming Wang!"

King Ming!

Qin Ming frowned slightly. He had only wanted to test the ability he had just mastered, but he hadn't expected to attract even this person's attention. This was troublesome...
