The Fifth Evil Expert

  A gigantic hand materialized in mid-air, grasping downwards with immense force. This fellow from the Giant Ship Sect was actually a ruthless character who specialized in cultivating internal energy techniques. His Heaven-Defying Grasping Hand technique was not inferior to the Sixty-Level Ghostly Fungus that had snatched my flying sword back then.

  "What a gathering of talents on this great ship!"

  As I flipped my hands, I had already formed the Five Fire Yin Thunder Net. Dozens of thunder fires rose and fell, instantly covering the giant palm that the player from the Giant Ship Gang had transformed into using his Innate First Qi.

  Both sides clashed, my Five Fires Yin Thunder Web was dispersed, and the opponent's Innate One Qi Big Capture also failed. On the surface, both sides were evenly matched, but in reality, my operation was slightly better, and the opponent's move was more powerful. This Five Fires Yin Thunder is only the sixth layer of the Xuan Yin True Classic, and it's normal to be slightly inferior to the opponent.

  "Not bad! Great Master, you're quite skilled. You're exactly the kind of talent our gang wants to recruit. I'll take you back to our headquarters right away!"

  It turns out that the giant ship is still looking for people and needs to go through an assessment? I'm considered a pass, right? Following the brothers in front of me, I flew east for over an hour and finally saw an island shaped like a grass sandal, with an area of tens of kilometers. The level of construction on the island is not much different from our Minjiang faction, obviously belonging to a construction site that is still under development.

  The oceans in Shu Shan are different from the land, the land is basically copied from reality, but the ocean is completely designed according to the original description of Shu Shan, referencing countless myths and legends, and has nothing to do with the real world.

  As soon as I landed, Wang Yabin immediately led me to a large hall that was still relatively intact and then bid farewell. There were already four players here, each with a solemn air, their eyes gleaming like electricity. Needless to say, they were all invited to help with the task as external experts.

  Shu Mountain has been open to the public for a long time, and many legendary stories have emerged. These legends all indicate the rise of some super masters. Just as Shu Mountain is not my family's, the ancestral master who operates the flow in Shu Mountain is also not our Mianjiang San Yao.

  Yuè Lóng ér's skills are impressive, but her personality is too plain, she hasn't done anything earth-shattering in Shǔ Shān, and doesn't attract attention. Therefore, she can't be considered a famous expert, the most famous experts in Shǔ Shān have already been ranked by players on the private Tiān Bǎng list.

  Ranking first, Qingfeng Mingjian is a disciple of Emei. He is said to be the only player today who has practiced the school's swordsmanship to the second layer peak. His favorite thing in life is dueling with others. Since entering Shu Mountain, he has had over 2,700 battles, big and small, with less than one percent of them being defeats. The reason for these defeats was almost always because he challenged high-level players who were several levels above him. In the past few months, players who saw Qingfeng Mingjian's shadow but didn't quickly use their Land God Symbol have become extinct.

  Known as the fastest in Shu Mountain, Tan Ranruo Shi is ranked seventh on the Heavenly List. Recently, it's said that he has also cultivated the Huashan Sword Manual to the top of the 20th layer.

  The leader of the Giant Ship Gang, Bai Hongzi Dian, is said to be ranked 198th on the Heavenly List, with two seven-tier flying swords in his hand, one white and one purple. He is also a top-notch expert in Shu Mountain.

  We, the three demons of Minjiang, except for Qinglong's great dance ranking on the Heavenly List at 148th place, I'm also honored to be on the list, but only after 200th place. Cough! This Heavenly List actually has a total of 219 players. Moreover, due to poor performance or being removed from the list for not making any stunning moves for a long time, there are sometimes more characters who have been brushed off than new rising experts.

  These four advanced players, I secretly checked their equipment and had a rough idea. The one with the rascal's temperament, who deliberately found someone to embroider a long leg, high chest, and slender waist on his clothes, is probably the recently notorious evil master Cao Ye. This person is simply the new generation of rascal extreme products, rumored to have hooked up with countless good wives in the game, and was jointly pursued by several major guilds. Now he still dares to wear this outfit, I estimate it's not a fake.

  In addition to the two, who were tall and fat, dressed as monks, they must have been the ones who recently found the hidden gate and learned the Buddhist heart sword of Dashan. They didn't wear a cuirass like me. There aren't many top Buddhist masters in Shushan now, let alone those with golden kasaya robes which are exclusive symbols. The probability of mistaken identity is not zero, but it's already so low that it can be ignored.

  It's the fourth person that I couldn't figure out his background, after all, in this world there are people who like to show off their personality, and also those who prefer to keep a low profile. Among the 300 million players in Shu Mountain, if I could recognize every single one of them, my brain would have exploded from memory overload.

  Not long after, Wang Yabin brought three people to appear in front of us. At a glance, I knew that the three giants of the Giant Ship Gang had arrived on the scene. The gang leader Bai Hongzi was elegant and refined, standing there like a jade tree in the wind. Seeing us, he bowed his fist, with impeccable etiquette.

  The deputy leader, Ming ℃, is very particular about efficiency and immediately introduced us to each other. That mysterious player was also vague in his words, obviously not knowing the other's background either. As for me, the information I provided to Wang Yabin was naturally false. Ming ℃ could only introduce this master, with the Buddhist name of Zhishan Sanqian, a high-ranking Buddhist expert who also practices Taoist secret arts.

  After the introductions, everyone seemed to be getting along on the surface. Ming ℃ revealed the veil of this task for us. "Although our Jù Zhōu Bāng is just a small gang in the East China Sea, we are not willing to fall behind others. This time we invited you masters over, we want to establish long-term cooperation. In the near future, we will build a fleet that spans the East China Sea, and at least twenty giant wooden ships will be built. And one of the important materials for building these giant wooden ships is the skeleton of the deep-sea giant squid. Only with the extremely hard skeleton of this deep-sea monster as the dragon bone can the giant wooden ship be invincible and sweep across the East China Sea."

  He glanced at the five of us and continued, "The target level for this mission is as high as 120 levels. Ordinary experts are useless. Only those like you who can take on a precision demon that exceeds their own level by more than 20 levels have the qualifications to join this mission. To show fairness, our Giant Ship Guild has even applied for guild mission publishing functionality, so everyone doesn't need to worry about us not paying the reward."

  PS: I won't update anymore today, tonight at 12 o'clock, Crystal Congress and updates, friends are welcome to come and support.
