The pear tree absorbed the power of life, and immediately withered at a speed visible to the naked eye. The withering of the pear tree led to the rapid decay of the whole tree. People standing on the tree immediately fell from the tree, and some people's noses and faces were swollen.
But these people jumped up immediately, ignoring the pain, staring at the pear tree that disappeared and shouting, "This tree... why is this tree gone?"
"My pear, oh my pear!"
Someone had a miserable face and howled, and the pear in his hand suddenly turned to ashes.
"This is retribution, it's all retribution. It must be God's will seeing your evil and deliberately punishing you. If you line up in an orderly manner, without fighting or grabbing, and pick the pears on the tree one by one, there are so many pears on the tree. , everyone can get the pears, and everyone can eat enough. Unfortunately, you are too greedy and want to possess all the pears. God will not allow you to take away all the pears and take away the pear trees."
The scholar stood up and preached to the crowd with his hands behind his back.
Some people were ashamed, while others became more vicious, and raised their knives to threaten the scholar, "Get away, or I will kill you with one knife."
"There is no cure!"
The scholar left with his hands behind his back.
Is this the real world of ordinary people
Xiao Mu also sighed, and slowly left the scene. He continued to go to other places in the county, and as a result, he saw the same robbing, and even saw two people killing each other for a steamed bun, but also, he also saw helping each other.
Time is warm and cruel, and Xiao Mu has more insights during the walk.
He continued to wander around the city, but suddenly received a message.
Xiao Mu checked the sound transmission talisman and found that it was Qin Yuan who was contacting him.
Xiao Mu connected the sound transmission symbol.
Qin Yuan brought a bad news, his voice sounded very dignified and full of worry, "Elder Xiao, according to reliable news, there is another change in the powerhouse of the Heavenly Court."
"There is another change, do you know where it happened?"
After hearing this, Xiao Mu couldn't help being moved, and he hurriedly asked. It is a good thing that the powerful man in the heavenly court shows up, especially for someone like him who is looking for the whereabouts of the strong man in the heavenly court and is eager to establish his prestige.
Qin Yuan's reply made him happy, but at the same time he was a little disappointed.
"It is said that it happened in the northern part of our Eastern Wilderness. The exact location is unknown. The information came from the middle part of the Eastern Wilderness."
The central part of Donghuang refers to the command center of Donghuang, which means that the information is either from Zhu Ke or Wang Yuan, and it is the information collected by the entire Donghuang based on surveillance.
"I know, I'll pay attention." Xiao Mu responded lightly, and asked casually, "Do you know how strong the Heavenly Court is?"
Qin Yuan's reply made Xiao Mu feel disappointed again, "The specific strength is unknown, but it is said to be at the level of a righteous god."
At the level of the righteous god, Xiao Mu is not afraid. He himself is at the level of the righteous god, and even a strong man in the level of the righteous god. Even if the strength of the opponent is in the late stage of the righteous god, he has the confidence to fight.
Then, he told Qin Yuan to guard the northern part of the Eastern Wilderness with all his heart, and contact him in time once he had further information, and he would look for the whereabouts of the God of Heaven who descended.
At the same time, he couldn't help asking about Mo Lin's situation. Unfortunately, Mo Lin's situation was the same as Xiao Mu's guessed. Although this person did not escape, although he continued to guard the northern part of the Eastern Wilderness like Qin Yuan, he was caught by the forces of the Heavenly Court. Scared, now I stay at home most of the time and rarely take the initiative.
This disappointed Xiao Mu. At the same time, he knew exactly what the reason was. Mo Lin had already been frightened by the strength of Heavenly Court, and had lost the will to resist. Restoring confidence.
Xiao Mu didn't continue to ask. He hung up the sound transmission talisman and continued to patrol the city. The strong man hid somewhere unknown, but was not found by him.
But he didn't gain anything at all. In the process of searching, he himself further practiced the Kaikai God Axe, which made his strength faintly stronger.
In addition, in the process of searching, he encountered heavenly powerhouses at the level of gods, and he easily killed them all.
In the following days, Xiao Mu wandered around the ancient city every day, and at the same time, searched around the ancient city.
On this day, he finally received another contact from Zhu Ke.
"Elder Xiao Dayuan, how are you doing recently, have you encountered any powerful people from the Heavenly Court?"
Concern for Xiao Mu's safety was concealed in Zhu Ke's tone. He obviously not only cared about Xiao Mu's safety, but also cared about the situation in the northern part of the Eastern Wilderness, worried that there would be sudden changes in the northern part of the Eastern Wilderness.
"Everything is fine." Xiao Mu's answer reassured Zhu Ke a lot, and he followed up with his own inquiry, "It is said that there is movement in the heavenly court, and you are here in the northern part of the Eastern Wilderness?"
Zhu Ke said solemnly: "It's just a guess, there is indeed a strong person descending from the Heavenly Court, but where it descends is still unknown for the time being, it may be on your side, it may be on my side, or it may be on Lao Wang's side. "
"How's the situation over there?"
Xiao Mu asked politely.
"fine!"
Zhu Ke chuckled, he was very satisfied with Xiao Mu's performance, which meant that Xiao Mu was not lazy in his work, and he attached great importance to the situation of Donghuang.
"Where is Wang Yuan?" Xiao Mu continued to ask.
"Old Wang?" Zhu Ke paused when he heard that, "Old Wang, I haven't had much contact with him recently, so I don't know for now. I'll contact him later and see what's going on."
"I hope nothing will happen to him." Xiao Mu was a little annoyed. This Wang Yuan always made him worry that he would be unreliable.
The other party was too negative, almost similar to Mo Lin's situation, Xiao Mu was worried that this person would give up his mission one day.
"No, Lao Wang is not that kind of person." Zhu Ke laughed, but it seemed that it was just a self-consolation, and then he hung up the sound transmission talisman in a hurry.
Xiao Mu guessed that the other party probably contacted Wang Yuan.
"I hope there will be nothing wrong with Wang Yuan."
Xiao Mu was still worried, but in the end, he sighed secretly. Whether something will happen to Wang Yuan, he is not sure, but at least for now, he has no way to help the other party.
Looking in the direction of the ancient city, he decided to return.
In the ancient city, it is still the same as before, some places are chaotic, there are looting incidents, but there are also people who help each other.
Most of the mutants are practicing diligently, hoping to make a breakthrough one day earlier and contribute more strength in the battle with Heaven.
"Have you heard? In an ancient village ten miles away from the east city, a villager died suddenly. The death was inexplicable, like a plague. Some people suspected that it was the work of a strong man in the heavenly court."
"I just heard about this incident. It is said that the mutants in the city are organizing their staff and planning to go to the ancient village to investigate."
"Yeah, you can't rely on the headquarters, you can only rely on yourself. Where are the mutants, and how is the manpower organization? I want to sign up, I want to participate."
"I know where it is, if you want to go, follow me."
A mutant stood up and waved to the speaker.
Immediately, several people ran towards the mutant, and they all walked to the other side of the ancient city together.
Xiao Mu became curious and suddenly wanted to follow.
Near the ancient city, he has been patrolling, but apart from the few heavenly gods he killed, he has never seen any traces of other heavenly powers.
Could it be that I was negligent
Xiao Mu was a little puzzled, but he decided to follow along to have a look.
Seeing a group of mutants walking towards the other side of the ancient city, Xiao Mu couldn't help but want to follow them, so he set off and followed silently.
"Ah~"
A roar suddenly came from the alley on the left, and a flame shot into the sky.
Xiao Mu couldn't help turning his head to look at the alley on the left. After looking at it, he remembered that Duan Ming was actually on the other side of the alley.
A few days ago, Duan Ming started to digest the energy fruit. Now, after so many days, he has finished digesting it. But just now, Duan Ming was obviously showing his strength, and when the fire mutant was showing his strength, he naturally released flames , glowing.
So, Xiao Mu's attention was attracted again, he decided to go to see Duan Ming first, to see how the other party is practicing.
So, he remained calm, but changes occurred under his body, a shadow silently separated from his body, and followed the other mutants to another direction of the ancient city, while he himself walked towards Duan Ming's house.
"Ah~" Before he got close to Duan Ming's home, he heard the roar from Duan Ming's house again.
There was not only a roar, but also Duan Ming's roar, and the strong flame that this person spewed from his mouth.
"This strength, the improvement is not small."
Xiao Mu saw Duan Ming in the distance, he was a little surprised, but at the same time he couldn't help feeling delighted.
Duan Ming's strength has actually been raised to the fourth level of Mortal Realm.
When a person with fire energy in the fourth realm of Mortal Realm releases flames, he immediately becomes a fire man.
The flame rushed up from under his feet, directly supporting his body.
But Duan Ming was obviously very excited, he realized that his strength had improved, and at the same time he also knew that he was no longer an ordinary person.
He landed on the ground and waved his fist vigorously, looking extremely excited. But at the same time, he obviously also knows who he got from to get what he is today.
Wow! Wow! Wow!
Footsteps came from another direction, just passing Duan Ming's door.
Two warrior-like men in bunts happened to pass by the door of Duan Ming's house.
Duan Ming hastily turned his head to look at it, but when he saw it, his eyes lit up.
These two men are both neighbors near his house, and according to Duan Ming's knowledge, these two men have successfully joined Master Chang's sect and learned different arts from Master Chang.
Now, after so many days, Duan Ming knew from the walking steps of these two people that the other two were already mutants.
Duan Ming became curious, he suddenly wanted to know his own strength, and these mutants who followed Master Chang to practice, who is stronger.
He is also a mutant, but unlike these cultivators, he is a mutant of the supernatural system, while these mutants are mutants of the warrior system.
Duan Ming faintly felt that his own strength might be stronger than the opponent's, and his cultivation speed was also faster. Even in the same realm, his combat power should be stronger than the opponent's.
He didn't know why he had such an idea, but he just felt that even in the same realm, a mutant like himself would be stronger than a warrior.
In fact, his perception is really correct. In the early stage of cultivation, the strength of the mutants of the supernatural system is indeed stronger than that of the warriors.
Only by stepping into the real world, the strength of a warrior will gradually catch up with a supernatural mutant like him.
"Old Gao, Xiao Xu, are you going to practice?"
Duan Ming couldn't help calling out to the two of them.
The two mutants stopped by him stopped, and one of the tall and thin men responded, "No, I heard that there are mutants in the heavens in the ancient village. Master called us to go and investigate to see if it is true. It is related to the mutants of the heavens."
Another man with a short beard shouted: "If it is related to the mutants in the heavens, we will kill them. This is our chance. We have practiced for such a long time, and finally have the opportunity to fight the mutants in the heavens." .”
After finishing speaking, the two people ignored Duan Ming and strode towards the other direction of the ancient city.
"Wait for me, I'll go with you."
When Duan Ming saw that the two of them were about to leave, he became a little anxious, yelled, and chased them out of the house.
"You?" The thin and tall man gave Duan Ming a surprised look. He couldn't figure out why Duan Ming dared to go with him.
The other short-bearded man was more straightforward, he said frankly: "Duan Ming, you are just an ordinary person, you should not mix with us, our mission is very dangerous, even if the mutant goes, there may be a Die, ordinary people like you go, ten deaths and no life."
"Really? Then I'm going to have a look."
When Duan Ming heard this, he laughed instead. These two people underestimated him, but he did not defend himself, he decided to prove himself with practical actions.
The two men did not continue to persuade Duan Ming, whether Duan Ming died or not had nothing to do with them, besides, they did not have so much time left to persuade Duan Ming.
The thin and tall man said: "Since you want to go, then go, remember not to blame us if you die."
"Haha, Lao Gao, you really underestimate me."
Duan Ming laughed, looking unaffected at all, "If I die, it will be my own fault, how dare I blame you, let's go, let's go together."
Lao Gao and Xiao Xu stopped persuading them, and the two of them took big steps and started walking to the other side of the ancient city.
Duan Ming followed immediately. He had already stepped into the fourth realm of the Mortal Realm. As a mutant of the fire element, in the fourth realm of the Mortal Realm, he had already made subtle use of the energy of the fire element.
Although he has just stepped into the fourth realm of the Mortal Realm and has not mastered many skills, for the mutants of the supernatural system, the release of supernatural abilities is almost instinctive, so Duan Ming quickly adapted to this ability for the most part. .
He took big strides to follow the two of them, and the flames flickered under his feet. The fire light pushed his steps and accelerated his walking speed, making him keep up with the two of them unconsciously.
