Chapter 250 The first and last mission
Chapter 250 The first and last mission
The group crossed the street and headed straight for the location of the family.
In front of the ice forest, Jing Cangming stretched out his hand to stop everyone.
"The Condemnation Army! This is the first and last mission I give you! Because! I will leave after completing this mission! Mission target! The entire northern continent's altar! The mission will take one month!" Jing Cangming said to everyone with high morale.
"Yes! The Condemnation Force! We will ensure the mission is accomplished!" Everyone shouted in unison, including Lu Yuanming and Gong Xinghui.
This is the Condemnation Force. They never ask why, and all they have to do is complete the mission they have been given!
"Everyone, listen up! Change into black clothes! Cover your face, don't expose your signature items, and don't let anyone know your identity! Do you understand?!"
"understand!"
After saying that, hundreds of people took out a black nightgown from their worldly rings. The black color was quite eye-catching in contrast to the pure white of the northern continent.
However, Jing Cangming did this to make everyone think that this was an external force so as not to suspect the inside of the continent. This was also to give an explanation to the Northern Emperor.
Afterwards, Jing Cangming took out a fragment of the Wudao Spear from his world ring. The fragment kept changing its light and looked very special.
"Everyone listen carefully, I need you to collect such fragments from the altar and bring them to me! And such fragments need to be roasted by fire to appear. Now, all the strong and weak people from the Fire System and the Bloodthirsty Fire System must step out!" Jing Cangming shouted to everyone while holding the fragments of the Wudao Gun.
In the queue, about twenty people stepped out in an orderly manner, including Ke Miaoyan, who had been the team leader before.
Jing Cangming was quite satisfied with the number of people he had. "Now these twenty people will be the captains. Everyone will be divided into twenty teams of five people each!"
"Got it!" Everyone shouted in unison, and then the twenty people walked to the front and stood in a row. Immediately afterwards, including the two elders Gong Xinghui and Lu Yuanming, the remaining eighty people found their own teams and formed teams of five.
This is the case with the Condemnation Force. Any individual picked out individually is responsible and can be used as a temporary commander, but we won’t discuss whether the commander is good or not for now.
However, since they are all Beast Emperors, it is relatively easy for them to complete such a simple task. No command skills are required, just be careful not to hurt anyone.
Jing Cangming nodded with satisfaction. "There are now more than seventy altars of the major families. I will give you two days to destroy them all, take out the fragments, and then report to me!"
"Yes!"
"Let's go!" Jing Cangming shouted.
Then, one after another, black figures, in groups of five, headed towards the location of the aristocratic family.
Jing Cangming looked at them with a sigh, "If the Western Continent also had a team like this, I'm afraid it wouldn't be the weakest continent, right?"
After saying that, Jing Cangming also left here to complete what he had to do, which was the holy altar in the royal family.
Jing Cangming traveled at a very fast speed and returned to the palace again.
The altar of the palace was easy to find. It was at the back of the palace hall. Jing Cangming arrived here quickly.
However, this is not the same as the altar I know. How can this be called an altar? It is just a ruin!
Jing Cangming looked around in confusion, wondering, who else would dare to take action in the palace? What would be the point of them destroying the altar?
Just when Jing Cangming was wondering, a man walked out from the shadows. This man was none other than Bei Huang.
"Cangming," Beihuang said, standing behind Jing Cangming.
Jing Cangming turned around quickly and looked at Bei Huang in disbelief, "Uncle Long! What's going on?"
Long Ye smiled and said, "Save your energy. I broke it myself. You can do whatever you want."
Jing Cangming was so moved that he didn't know what to say. He was obviously reluctant to hand over the altar, but in order to help himself, he actually destroyed the spiritual pillar of tens of thousands of years with his own hands.
"Uncle Long...thank you..." Jing Cangming said tremblingly.
Upon hearing this, Long Ye just waved his hand and said, "Okay, do what you should do. I'm going back to drink."
After saying that, Long Ye turned and left, but his back looked so weak.
It seemed that destroying the altar that had existed for tens of thousands of years with his own hands was something that was difficult for him to accept in a short period of time.
Jing Cangming was suddenly relieved. He knew that there was no altar in the West Palace, but he didn't know why.
Jing Cangming looked at the destroyed thousand-year-old holy altar in front of him with tears in his eyes, not knowing what to say.
But time was not waiting for me. Ever since I absorbed the fragments of the Wudao Spear to improve my strength, I clearly felt that my cultivation was a bit slow. So I didn't focus too much on cultivation, but instead focused all my attention on the fragments of the Wudao Spear in the altar.
Jing Cangming summoned Xiaojiu, and instantly a beautiful fiery red figure appeared beside him.
"What? Did you miss me?" Xiaojiu said jokingly.
Jing Cangming smiled tiredly and said, "Well, I missed you."
Xiao Jiu noticed that Jing Cangming was not in a good state. "What's wrong? What happened?"
Jing Cangming pointed at the ruins of the altar in front of him without saying anything.
Xiao Jiu looked around in surprise, "Is this the imperial palace? Did you break the altar for them?"
Jing Cangming shook his head and said, "It wasn't me, it was done by the Northern Emperor himself."
"Ah?" Xiaojiu was a little unbelievable.
"Well, it was done by the Northern Emperor himself. I feel a little regretful now. This matter should not have been done by the Northern Emperor himself."
Xiaojiu quickly grabbed Jing Cangming's arm and said, "Well, things have come to this, don't think about it, and make it up to him later."
Jing Cangming nodded. It was indeed as Xiaojiu said. It was already like this. There was no turning back. However, the Northern Emperor probably didn't want others to destroy the altar that his family had been guarding for generations, so he destroyed it himself, right? But this was really too cruel for him.
"Xiaojiu, melt them and take the fragments," Jing Cangming said tiredly.
Xiaojiu nodded, let go of Jing Cangming's arm, and took two steps forward. The clattering sound of her high heels on the ice was particularly harsh in this quiet area.
Xiaojiu raised his hands in front of his chest, with his palms facing the ruins, and then an intense heat emanated from his whole body, which finally gathered between his palms.
In an instant, a fierce flame burst out from his hand, continuously spreading on the altar, and finally enveloping it and burning it completely.
Soon, the ice melted into water, the water turned into steam, and after leaving the range of the flame, it became liquid again, and then quickly condensed into ice crystals, repeating the cycle over and over again for ten minutes.
Colors began to appear in the firelight. These colors looked very dazzling, but in the pure white palace, these colors looked a bit abrupt.
When Xiaojiu saw the fragments coming out, he put away the fire, quickly came to the middle of the ruins, held them in his hand, and then came to Jing Cangming.
"Here you go," Xiao Jiu placed the fragment in his palm and handed it to Jing Cangming.
Jing Cangming looked at Xiaojiu and smiled, "Thank you for your hard work, you can go back first."
Xiaojiu said with some concern, "Can you do it by yourself?"
Jing Cangming nodded and said, "No problem."
"Okay." Upon hearing this, Xiao Jiu didn't say anything. He just said okay and returned to the world ring.
Jing Cangming looked down at the palm-sized fragment in his hand. This should be the largest piece of fragment he had ever received, but he was not that happy.
With a flip of his hand, Jing Cangming put the fragment back into his world ring and left the Beihuang Palace alone. He really didn't know how to face the Beihuang's kindness now.
However, Jing Cangming did not stay in this state for too long. After leaving the Beihuang Palace, Jing Cangming adjusted his state and returned to the outside of the ice forest.
At this time, through the ice forest, one could see that intense flames were beginning to burn where the aristocratic families were located.
There is no doubt that they were the ones who did it. At this time, in order not to hurt innocent people, these Beast Emperors had to freeze everything around the altar, and then let the temporary captain roast and melt the altar.
In fact, the most helpless ones are the children of aristocratic families. They watched the destruction of the altar with their own eyes but were unable to do anything. It was quite cruel for them.
The next day, a piece of news came out in the Beihuang Palace. It was said by Beihuang himself, "I heard from my ancestor in a dream that the holy altar was not for granting the beast generals souls, but for depriving them of their existence. So I destroyed the holy altar of the royal family with my own hands!"
As soon as this news came out, the entire Northern Continent was in an uproar. There were many different opinions, but almost everyone did not believe it.
But these words were spoken by the Northern Emperor himself, and he also personally destroyed the altar that the royal family had guarded for tens of thousands of years. What else can I say?
Of course, after this news came out, the children of the noble families felt much more comfortable. Since the imperial palace was destroyed, their own were not so special anymore.
But the Northern Emperor obviously overdosed his plan, and this news is very unfavorable to Jing Cangming.
Firstly, this would easily lead people to suspect that these men in black were sent by the Northern Emperor. Secondly, what if some villages were loyal fans of the Northern Emperor and they destroyed the altar themselves?
It’s not that I’m afraid that they will discover the secret of the fragments, but after the altar is destroyed, it will not be so easy to find.
The northern continent is always windy and snowy, and the ruins can be easily submerged, so this news also caused Jing Cangming a lot of trouble.
Fortunately, the larger altars are all on the northern continent. The altars in the wilderness look smaller, so the fragments are naturally smaller as well.
Two days later, the members of the Heavenly Punishment Force completed their respective tasks punctually, and each team handed over at least two pieces of fragments to Jing Cangming.
Jing Cangming nodded with satisfaction and said, "Next is the Great Wilderness."
"Let's set off immediately!" said Gong Xinghui and others.
Jing Cangming said, "Okay, be careful on your way, I'll be waiting for you at the headquarters of the Wangu Beast Hunting Team."
