Chapter 1289
A moment later, in the Guancheng meeting hall.
The messenger of God sat upright in the upper seat, his whole body surrounded by golden light of merit and virtue, shining with light.
Her black hair was tied up with a star crown woven with silver threads. When the hem of her dress fell to her feet, it seemed as if an invisible wind gently lifted it up. The star pattern embroidered with silver threads on the fabric seemed to be really slowly rotating in the golden light.
To be a god is to be closer to being an immortal.
On both sides stood two powerful men from the Fu family, whose strength had reached the other shore realm.
Such a powerful person is willing to be a supporting role for God. The power of God's court is frightening.
Below, Hu Tiancheng and other people in charge of Sin City listened to the teachings, but they were filled with indescribable envy.
The gods in the Divine Court are worshipped by all spirits and have great merits. Their strength far exceeds that of practitioners at the same level. Moreover, it is rumored that as long as one has a wisp of soul deposited in the Divine Court, it will be immortal.
The Divine Court transcends life and death and touches upon reincarnation, which is unimaginable for cultivators on earth.
"This divine envoy came to the Arctic Sin City with only one task, which was to investigate a cross-border demon. The Divine Court has issued an edict that the cross-border demon must be captured. Those who provide clues will be granted the merit of self-protection, and those who capture the demon will be enshrined in the Divine Court." Divine envoy Zhang Xiu dropped a bombshell.
After a brief moment of shock, everyone present couldn't help but become excited.
Just by providing clues, one will be granted the merit of self-protection. Those who capture the demons will even be admitted to the divine court and become gods.
But this excitement came and went quickly.
The world is vast and boundless, with the sky round and the earth square. To encounter a mere cross-border demon is as difficult as ascending to heaven.
How can I be so lucky?
It would be more reliable to take another route to the Divine Palace.
"We will do our best to investigate the demon, but please tell us how to do it, Lord God's Envoy." Hu Tiancheng bowed respectfully.
"This divine messenger has three mirrors, named Demon-Revealing Mirrors. If anyone in the city walks under these mirrors, the true form of any demon will be revealed." Zhang Xiu said. After he finished speaking, he flipped his hand, and the three glittering colored glass mirrors began to spin and grow rapidly. In a few breaths, they were as big as washbasins.
A hazy spiritual light flickered, illuminating everyone present. Zhang Xiuguan took a few glances, then thrust the Demon-Reflecting Mirror forward, and two mirrors floated in front of Hu Tiancheng.
Hu Tiancheng took the two mirrors and said, "With these, the investigation of Sin City can begin today."
"Your Excellency, there are widespread rumors that one hundred thousand demons are about to descend upon this world. I don't know whether it is true or not. I would like to ask Your Excellency to enlighten me." At this time, Gong Zang asked.
"One hundred thousand is a large number..." The glass beads dangling from Zhang Xiu's fingertips suddenly paused. The previously flowing clouds of energy condensed within the beads, as if resonating with his words. "The rumors are exaggerated. The Divine Court's Heavenly Eyes monitor both heaven and earth. If a hundred thousand celestial demons truly had gathered, they would have been covered by the Divine Court's network of merit and virtue. There is absolutely no way there would be no signs."
As he finished speaking, the golden light of merit surrounding him undulated slightly, as if confirming the weight of his words. The powerful Fu Clan members on either side of the platform remained standing with their hands lowered, their gazes quietly sweeping over the crowd below. The subtly spreading pressure of the Other Shore Realm added a touch of solemnity to the already tense atmosphere.
"But this matter..."
Zhang Xiu changed the subject, and the crescent crystal on his forehead suddenly lit up with a faint light, casting a colder light in his eyes. "That demon crossed over through the spatial rift. Although alone, he is very dangerous. He must be a high-level demon who forced his way across the realm and intends to deploy means to support him in this realm."
"This mirror is not only used to check people, but also to monitor every corner in and outside the city—especially where negative energy gathers."
"Do you still need to check the land?"
Hu Tiancheng frowned immediately. "But the Arctic Crime City is vast. It will probably take quite a while to investigate it just by using the Demon Mirror."
"Don't worry. The generals of the Fu family also have three treasure mirrors and will accompany you on the inspection." Zhang Xiu interrupted Hu Tiancheng, his eyes sweeping over everyone present. The golden light of merit circulated around him faster, and there seemed to be warmth spreading, but also with invisible pressure:
"Just remember this—checking out the demons is not only to protect the safety of your Sin City, but also to maintain the first line of defense for this world.
If anyone slacks off or secretly harbors a demon, they are becoming enemies of the Divine Court. Don't blame the Divine Court for being ruthless then."
"Yes!"
Hu Tiancheng and others could only feel bitter in their hearts and bowed in response, their voices even more respectful than before.
The Demon-Illuminating Mirror floating in front of them seemed to shine even brighter because of the words of the divine messenger, clearly reflecting the awe and determination in everyone's eyes.
Zhang Xiu sat upright in the upper seat, the glass beads on his fingertips turning again, but his eyes were quietly cast towards the sky outside the conference hall, as if sensing something.
