Godly Dragon Guard

The Holy Envoy is a demon cultivator with the head of an ox and the body of a bull, with a cultivation level in the middle stage of integration.

Shen Lang could tell that his true form was a black-eyed mad bull, and this beast ranked last among holy-level spiritual beasts.

"Haha, fellow Taoist Wolf, it's been a long time." The Holy Envoy greeted him kindly. The Frost Wolf was a well-known casual cultivator in the Tianyao Mountains, so of course he had to respect him.

"The wolf is far away, so the Holy Envoy is too polite." Shen Lang clasped his fists.

Although this holy envoy is average in strength, he holds considerable power in the Heavenly Demon Palace, and ordinary casual cultivators will respect him.

"Eh? Dare I ask who this fellow Taoist is?" The Holy Envoy glanced at Liu Yunmeng beside Shen Lang and asked curiously.

"Oh, this is my concubine, whom I married not long ago." Shen Lang introduced.

"I've seen the Holy Envoy." Liu Yunmeng, who was wearing a mask, said with his fists clasped.

"you are welcome."

The Holy Envoy could tell that Liu Yunmeng was a female cultivator from the human race.

Human monks also existed in the ancient demon world, and there were many of them, spread across all continents of the demon world. It's just that human monks are relatively rare in the Demon Continent.

The female cultivators of the human race are famous for their beauty and tenderness, but their lifespan is too short. It is something worthy of praise for a demon cultivator to have a beautiful human female cultivator as a concubine.

"Fellow Taoist Wolf, you are not interesting enough. You married a concubine with such a high level of cultivation, but you don't invite me to drink. It's so outrageous!" The holy envoy showed a hint of dissatisfaction.

Shen Lang said: "Sorry, I will make up for it some other time."

The Holy Envoy smiled and said, "We'll talk about drinking some other time. Let's get down to business now."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Holy Envoy took out two invitations from the storage ring and handed them to Shen Lang.

Shen Lang picked up the invitations and looked at them. One of them was an invitation letter for the tribute pilgrimage meeting issued by Tianyao Palace to casual cultivators, and the other golden invitation letter came from Tianyao Palace.

"Holy Envoy, why is there an extra invitation letter?" Shen Lang asked curiously.

The Holy Envoy said seriously: "Fellow Taoist Wolf, that golden invitation letter is an invitation letter issued by the top management of Tianyao Palace to the powerful casual cultivators in the Tianyao Mountain Range, inviting some powerful casual cultivators to discuss matters in Tianyao Palace. "

"Discussing? What are we discussing?" Shen Lang asked.

The holy envoy said in a deep voice: "Originally, this matter was kept secret, but for the sake of our friendship with fellow Taoist Wolf, I will tell you. Recently, the border conflict has become increasingly serious, and the Dragon Emperor and Demon Emperor are preparing to lead an army to attack the Demon Emperor. Clan! Therefore, the senior officials of Tianyao Palace want to recruit some powerful casual cultivators to form a camp and carry out secret missions."

"What? Is there really going to be a war?"

Shen Lang said in surprise.

"The war is about to begin, and the news cannot be false. As for whether you are willing to join the camp, Tianyao Palace does not force it, and it depends on the wishes of the casual cultivators. However, the reward this time is extremely generous, and I can't say more about the details now. Fellow Daoist Wolf will then I know." The Holy Envoy said calmly.

"Thank you for letting me know." Shen Lang clasped his fists.

After chatting for a few words, the Holy Messenger left.

"It seems that this Tianyao Mountain Range is not a peaceful place. Shen Lang, what are you going to do?" Liu Yunmeng asked.

Shen Lang pondered for a while and said: "Since there is going to be a war, it will be more convenient for us to sneak into the demon clan. Let's go to the Tianyao Palace to attend the conference first, and then look at our plans later."

"good."

Liu Yunmeng nodded slightly. Wherever Shen Lang went, she would follow.

Now she is not worried about delaying Shen Lang's retreat. She has Jiuyi Cauldron. If it is inconvenient for a man to take her with him, she can hide in the cauldron at any time.

The spiritual land where Shen Lang is located is not too far away from the Heavenly Demon Palace, about three or four days' journey.

After resting for a few days and getting ready, the two set off.

As for the two demon cultivator servants, Shen Lang let them stay in the spiritual land.

The Tianyao Palace is located in the center of the Tianyao Mountains, covering an area of ​​hundreds of thousands of miles. There are tens of thousands of spiritual veins intertwined underground. Purple energy comes from the east, and the five elements of spiritual power in the surrounding area are extremely rich.

The Tianyao Palace can be imagined as a very large sect, which has gathered powerful demon cultivators from the entire Tianyao Mountain Range. The sect has existed for countless thousands of years and has an extremely profound foundation.

The Tribute Pilgrimage Conference is held once every thousand years. The process is very simple, which is to pay the tribute, and the second step is to worship the Holy Ancestor of the Tianyao Mountains, the Dragon Carrying the Candle!

The dragon holding the candle, also known as the Zhu Jiuyin, is a true dragon variant and a top true spirit! Not weaker than the top five-clawed golden dragon of the True Dragon Clan.

It is said that the dragon holding the candle was the patron saint of the southern wilderness when the ancient demon world was born. The southern wilderness at that time was today's Demon Continent.

In ancient times, the dragon holding the candle taught the demons. The ancient demon cultivators at that time all regarded the dragon holding the candle as a god. But for some unknown reason, the dragon holding the candle suddenly disappeared and disappeared, as if it had disappeared from the world.

In later generations, demon cultivators in the Demon Continent will call the dragon holding the candle the "Holy Ancestor". Whenever they hear the name of the dragon holding the candle, they will feel a deep sense of awe in their hearts.

The tribute pilgrimage meeting was held on the highest peak on the mountain behind Tianyao Palace. This is also the altar of Tianyao Mountain. A huge statue of a dragon holding a candle stands on the top of the mountain.

Handing over tribute is actually similar to collecting protection fees.

Demon cultivators in the Void Refining Stage need to pay tribute worth 100,000 Sky Crystals every thousand years. Demon cultivators in the integration stage need to pay tribute worth two million large sky crystals every thousand years.

For the demon cultivator, this should not be considered a small amount.

Therefore, there are very few casual cultivators in the Tianyao Mountains. Generally, demon cultivators above the Void Refining Stage are recruited by the Tianyao Palace. The Heavenly Demon Palace has inherited the teachings of the Dragon Carrying the Candle, and does not force demon cultivators to join the Heavenly Demon Palace. It allows the existence of casual cultivators in the Tianyao Mountain Range.

In fact, it is difficult for casual cultivators in the Tianyao Mountains to earn big sky crystals in other ways. In the end, they still have to accept the tasks issued by the Tianyao Palace. It is not much different from joining the Tianyao Palace, but it is more free.

Shen Lang and Liu Yunmeng attended the conference, and Liu Yunmeng was registered as a casual cultivator in the Tianyao Mountains in the name of Shen Lang's concubine.

Although there are few casual cultivators in the Tianyao Mountains, there are still thousands of them, and there are five to six hundred cultivators in the combined stage. The casual cultivators who arrived at the scene were crowded together, but they all remained quiet.

In front of the statue of the Holy Ancestor, these domineering demon cultivators were also in awe.

Shen Lang and Liu Yunmeng lined up to pay four million large sky crystals, and then kowtowed to the so-called Saint Ancestor of the Sky Demon Mountain Range.

The statue of a dragon holding a candle on the top of the mountain is very realistic. It is carved with crystal stones of various colors and is lifelike.

Thanks to this, Shen Lang finally knew what the legendary dragon carrying a candle looked like.

The dragon holding the candle looks like a real dragon, with a pair of sharp antlers, dark golden pupils, and red and black dragon scales. It is majestic and majestic!

Just the statue standing there could make Shen Lang feel an inexplicable palpitation in his heart.

After the conference, Shen Lang, Liu Yunmeng, and hundreds of well-known casual cultivators in the Tianyao Mountains left the venue under the reception of the Holy Envoy and went to the Tianyao Palace main hall to participate in a secret meeting.
