Everyone Was on the Same Side: Arrival at Lightless Island
Subduing Ice Sect has risen rapidly in recent years and has gathered many powerful casual cultivators.
The reason why everyone got together was because they wanted to unite to bully the other monks.
Right Protector is not willing to give in. He just wants to take the opportunity to attack and ask for additional benefits.
As the large blue spiritual ship on the opposite side approached, the ferocious ice dragon carved on the bow gradually became clearer, and the runes on the ship's body lit up with a cold light.
I saw an old man standing on the bow of the boat with his hands behind his hands. His hair was as white as frost and he was wearing a black robe.
Golden Core Great Perfection's powerful pressure crushed Three Immortals Sect's spirit ship like a tide, like a huge stone pressing on the chests of Yu Zhenyang and the other three.
Both Qiu Fanghui felt short of breath and numb on the scalp.
Although he is also Golden Core Great Perfection, compared to the top players who fought in the Outer Sea, he cannot be compared to him.
What's more, there will definitely not be only one person on the opponent's large spiritual ship, and this ship may not be the only one around. If they really want to fight, I'm afraid they will suffer disaster today.
Only Xiao Chen looked as usual, unmoved.
"Daoist Qiu, please think of a way."
Yu Zhenyang quickly called Divine Sense Transmission in secret, "Didn't you say before that you have many friends in the Outer Sea? We are all our own people. Don't hurt the harmony."
Qiu Fanghui has been to the Outer Sea twice.
In a casual conversation a few days ago, he boasted that he was well-informed and well-connected at the Outer Sea.
When I heard this, I suddenly cried secretly in my heart.
He was only Early-stage Golden Core at that time, and at the Outer Sea he was also helping another senior run errands, so he didn't know anyone who was a real big shot.
But talking about this now will do nothing but lose face.
Forget it, let's treat a dead horse as a live doctor.
"Everyone, please be patient and wait for me to negotiate with the other party."
Qiu Fanghui first used Divine Sense Transmission to calm the four people around him.
Then he secretly crushed a Body Protection Jade Talisman in his sleeve, then forced himself to pretend to be calm, stood up and faced him.
Although he was panicking in his heart, on the outside he was stroking his beard and smiling, "Master Protector, wait a minute!"
"My dear Qiu Fanghui, I drank Spirit Tea with your teacher Elder Peng in Lightless Island."
"I have no intention of passing by this place today, how about I make it a convenience?"
As he spoke, he also reached out and handed over a small Storage Bag: "Master Protector, you have worked hard on patrol. Here are one hundred thousand Spirit Stones. Please consider them as some of our thoughts."
In fact, Qiu Fanghui doesn't know that Elder Peng at all.
He had only heard of such a person named Subduing Ice Sect at an auction thirty years ago.
So I casually made up a friendship and tried to get through.
I hope that the other party can take Spirit Stone's face into account and not worry too much about myself and others.
Cao Mingjie on the ship stared at the Spirit Stone Pouch with heartache, that was a total of 100,000 yuan Spirit Stone!
But now is obviously not the time to save money. We can only hope that there will be enough harvest from the ruins to fill these shortfalls.
But Yu Zhenyang immediately sent a message: "Daoist Qiu, Spirit Stone is not enough, you can add more. You must stabilize this old thing..."
Money is something external to the body, so just think that you are unlucky enough to encounter Bandit Cultivator, and just spend money to eliminate the misfortune.
"Oh~?"
Right Protector narrowed his eyes and asked, "Are you talking about Peng Qinglan Elder?"
This is a fake name, just to test Qiu Fanghui.
Just now he passed the five people on the opposite side with Spiritual Sense Probe, and there was only one Late-stage Golden Core.
The spirit ship is an ordinary style and does not even have a composite formation.
Whenever Qiu Fanghui can't answer, Right Protector is ready to take action directly.
A few miscellaneous fish also dared to break into Blackwater Zone, so I just wanted to try my newly refined Mystic Ice Soul-Locking Array on them.
While thinking, he secretly pressed the array plate with his right hand behind his back. The Ice Dragon Statue immediately rolled his eyes and seemed to come to life, and the Attack Array at the stern also began to recharge.
Ma Wenbo, who had been paying attention to the spirit ship, immediately shrank his pupils.
He quickly sent a message to the others to warn, "No, the Talisman at the stern of the opponent's ship is unfolding. You may have to fight with all your strength!"
Yu Zhenyang took out Defense Array Flag in his hand, but his eyes were looking at Qiu Fanghui.
This is all his hope at this time - Daoist Qiu, but it all depends on you.
Cao Mingjie's cultivation level was no more than Early-stage Golden Core's, and he was already under strong pressure. Looking at the illuminated formation runes, he was so nervous that he couldn't even breathe.
If there really was a fight, he would be the most dangerous one.
Xiao Chen heard Ma Wenbo's warning, his eyes narrowed, and he took out the flying claw in his hand.
If Qiu Fanghui knows each other, forget it, it's just a misunderstanding.
If you don't know it, it's time to test whether your newly acquired Mechanical Grappling Claw is easy to use.
If he hadn't had this concern, he would have taken the initiative long ago.
But it doesn't matter. With his current strength, even if he strikes later, the opponent will still suffer disaster.
"Well, I know..."
Qiu Fanghui's Adam's apple rolled a bit, and now that it's over, it can be said that it's hard to get off.
His heart skipped a beat and he nodded and admitted. "Yes, it's Peng Qinglan Elder."
"Hahaha, everyone is actually our own people, hahaha."
Qiu Fanghui pretended to smile while quietly observing the other party's reaction.
However, after hearing this answer, Right Protector looked tense and said nothing.
So much so that Qiu Fanghui was the only one laughing there.
Feeling the chilling atmosphere in the air, Qiu Fanghui's smile became stiffer.
It sounded like a duck that had been pinched out of its neck and was suffocating, and his face was uglier than crying.
The tense atmosphere spread to everyone around him.
Three Immortals Sect The three brothers' hearts sank, and the monk Subduing Ice Sect also came out of the cabin.
There were actually two Late-stage Golden Core and four Mid-stage Golden Core, holding Spirit Artifact with fierce eyes.
Just waiting for Right Protector to give the order, he was ready to cooperate with Attack Array to swarm forward.
However, after they showed up, they still couldn't wait for the order to take action.
Several people looked at each other, a little confused as to what was going on.
The other party is obviously lying. What is the protector doing?
None of them knew that Right Protector's back was soaked with cold sweat at this time.
Many monks have their own little secrets, especially the casual cultivators who can achieve Golden Core. They have all obtained fortuitous opportunity, big or small.
When Right Protector was still Qi Refining Cultivator, he accidentally picked up a special shell at the beach.
The lines on it naturally formed the character "", which looked very auspicious, so he took it with him to hope for good luck.
From then on, whenever he encounters danger, Fortune Character Shell will generate heat to warn him.
It was by relying on this shell that he turned disaster into good fortune, and went from being a casual cultivator of Qi Refining to today, becoming the protector of the Subduing Ice Sect.
And just now, the Fortune Character Shell hanging on my chest suddenly became hot.
And it heated up like a soldering iron in an instant, which immediately startled him.
For many years, Beike had never shown such strong signs, almost indicating that he would be in a life-or-death crisis.
So much so that he doesn't dare to move now.
Although he looked expressionless and gloomy, in fact he was like an ant on a hot pot inside.
.
What exactly went wrong?
In just a few breaths, Right Protector's brain was thinking rapidly about the current situation.
The early warning was suddenly triggered when he activated the formation disk with murderous intentions. Could it be because of this?
Qiu Fanghui was originally the person most likely to bring danger, but he made up lies and took the initiative to bow his head and surrender without any strong demeanor, so the danger should not come from him.
But the remaining few are obviously just trash fish from the Inner Sea.
He glanced at the four people in front of him again with the corner of his eye, and was suddenly startled when he passed by Xiao Chen.
Something was wrong, the black-robed monk had a restrained aura, and I actually felt like I couldn't see through him.
I heard from Sect Master that New Ruin is about to open near the Lightless Sea recently, so there may be experts who hide their identities.
Could it be that I am so unlucky that I meet a ruthless person?
After noticing the abnormality, Right Protector tried hard to keep a straight face and try not to show any emotion.
I glanced out of the corner of my eye again and saw Xiao Chen holding a small rectangular box in his hand.
The more strange the door Spirit Artifact is, the more careful you must be.
"What the hell is this? Damn it, you can't see the other party's details at all."
Right Protector is already trembling in his heart. Could it be some special Hidden Dao Heritage?
The more he thought about it, the more doubts he had.
The three people next to them all had a look of fear or panic in their eyes, which should be the reaction of ordinary casual cultivators.
But Xiao Chen looked indifferent in the face of his pressure, especially the look in his eyes that showed no emotion at all, as if he was looking at a dead object.
What should I do now?
Right Protector suddenly burst into laughter and said, "Hahaha, it turns out we are Elder Peng's friends. We are all our own people!"
"What Spirit Stone put it away quickly, how can I get my own things?"
"The flood almost washed away the Dragon King Temple. What a misunderstanding, hahaha."
He deliberately added an accent to the word "own" and repeated it twice, for fear that Xiao Chen might not hear it clearly.
The six people behind, Golden Core cultivator, were confused at the time.
Huh?
One of them, Late-stage Golden Core, whispered, "Is there another Elder named Peng Qinglan in our church? Why don't I have any influence at all?"
Another person, Late-stage Golden Core, suggested. "What the protector says must have profound meanings. If you don't understand, just understand more, but don't ask too many questions that shouldn't be asked."
In fact, he himself couldn't understand it, but there must be a monster when something goes wrong.
At this time, we should use the virtue of silence is golden.
Until then, Qiu Fanghui, who was standing frozen on the spot, felt as if he had been granted amnesty, and immediately laughed in agreement again, "Hahaha, one of our own, one of our own."
Great, thanks to my good luck, I actually got it right.
It turns out that the full name of Elder Peng is Peng Qinglan. Remember it. If you brag to others in the future, just use this full name.
The two of them smiled, and the originally solemn atmosphere instantly became relaxed.
Yu Zhenyang was overjoyed, Daoist Qiu was indeed very popular, and even Subduing Ice Sect the Dharma Protector gave him face.
Ma Wenbo's eyes widened in surprise. He had always felt that this Daoist Qiu seemed to be bragging on weekdays and was not worthy of his name, so he did not actively follow him.
Now it seems that the other party is indeed Divine Ability, and he is completely overthinking it.
Having said that, if you really don't have the confidence, how can you dare to take the initiative to greet me, and how can Subduing Ice Sect Right Protector become so enthusiastic all of a sudden.
It seems that he will have to be more enthusiastic in the future.
Cao Mingjie secretly made up his mind to increase his efforts to win over Qiu Fanghui.
Be sure not to miss such a thigh.
"Daoist Qiu, don't take a detour, it will waste more time."
Right Protector hurriedly started to make amends. "Let's just go here."
Qiu Fanghui quickly waved his hand. "No, since your teaching has important matters, we'd better go around."
However, Right Protector grabbed his arm. "Daoist Qiu, it's okay, just go here."
He has now fully entered the state. "Sea Seal actually only targets those outsiders. We are all our own people. What are you afraid of?"
Since he guessed that Xiao Chen might be here to attend the ruins, Right Protector did not dare to waste time moving forward at this time.
"I... this..."
Qiu Fanghui hesitated. "Sea Seal It's a rule, it's better not to disturb your sect's activities."
He was worried that when entering the Sea Seal area and encountering other patrol teams, they might not be able to fool them.
"It doesn't matter, I'll send you off personally..."
Right Protector originally wanted to say, 'I'll send you there myself', but then I thought about it, and I didn't mean to stay near Xiao Chen for several days.
Then the conversation changed. "I will give you a Subduing Ice Flag. Just hang this flag on the top of the mast to ensure that you have unimpeded traffic."
After saying this, Qiu Fanghui had no reason to continue to refuse.
So the spirit ship turned around again and returned to its original direction.
"Daoist Qiu, I really have a patrol mission and I can't leave, so please go slowly!"
Before leaving, Right Protector waved goodbye, looking quite familiar.
It wasn't until the ship disappeared and the shell on his chest returned to normal temperature that he let out a breath of fear.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough today and managed to come back with his life on the edge of the cliff.
"Fortunately, Daoist Qiu is here today, so we are safe and sound."
On the spirit boat, Yu Zhenyang and others also praised him enthusiastically, "Not only are you superb in skills, but you also have an extensive network of connections. You are truly a role model for our generation."
Qiu Fanghui was also a little excited at this time. "Hey, it's just my friends who give me face."
They were chatting enthusiastically, but Xiao Chen was thinking alone. He felt a little strange. Right Protector's attitude change seemed a bit too sudden.
But he didn't bother to think about it carefully, there was no need.
Instead of scheming and scheming, it is better to seize the time to enjoy the sea breeze and relax, then return to the attic and continue to practice and improve your strength.
Cultivation is the foundation of everything.
As long as you are strong enough, no matter what happens, it will be nothing more than soldiers coming to block the water and earth to cover it up.
Perhaps thanks to Subduing Ice Flag, the spirit ship successfully passed through the so-called Sea Seal area without encountering any other mishaps.
On June 30th, we successfully arrived at the edge of the North Side of Lightless Sea.
And the rumored Lightless Island was found here.
Although it looks like Lightless Island is not that big from the chart.
But in fact, this island is about more than 900 miles long from east to west and more than 300 miles wide from north to south. It is the largest island within a radius of 50,000 miles.
"Daoist Jinguang, we're here."
After the spirit ship was parked in the port, Yu Zhenyang also came to inform Xiao Chen: "It's still early, you can rest here for two days."
"By the way, I'll replenish supplies, get some information, and prepare for exploring the ruins."
"We have discussed it and plan to go to Lightless Tavern to try Outer Sea's specialties first. Daoist Jinguang do you want to go together?"
In fact, it's a banquet Qiu Fanghui
.
Xiao Chen usually keeps to himself and does not seem to be very gregarious.
However, he actually didn't dislike contact with others, so he nodded. "Okay, I also want to experience the special flavor here."
Due to the long and narrow terrain, the city on Lightless Island is also divided into east and west sides.
The east side was built by the Yin Corpse Sect, and large restaurants and Market Grand Array are all on the east side.
The northwest is a place where casual cultivators gather. To put it bluntly, it is a relatively flat wasteland with a large group of people setting up street stalls.
It's just that because Lightless Island is relatively famous, there are a lot of monks here.
Some vendors have been setting up stalls in the west for many years, and even built their own simple houses, so it gradually formed a gathering place.
Lightless Tavern is naturally in East Market.
The group of people came to Fang City ten miles away with their swords, pressed Flying Sword and entered on foot.
This is a rule that many cities have, and some places even rely on formations to restrict outsiders from wielding swords in the city.
However, not long after they landed, they saw Sword Light passing by, and they rushed straight to the entrance of Fangshi before stopping.
In the Outer Sea, some rules are not so strict.
Of course, the main reason is that in order to save formation consumption, the Yin Corpse Sect usually only activates the air-forbidden formation within the city, and does not control the periphery at all.
"It is said that Outer Sea is different from the Inner Sea, and they don't seem to have much style."
This was the first time Cao Mingjie came out. I was looking around curiously along the way. But when I walked into the city, I was disappointed to find that Outer Sea seemed to have no distinctive buildings.
"After all, this is our Human Race building, so naturally they all have the same style."
Qiu Fanghui proudly pointed out. "If you want to see something different, you have to go to those alien Secret Realm, or the area east of the Compassion Sea."
"I think I went to the Merfolk Secret Realm back then and took a look at the Sea Palace that Shark Human Race left behind."
Eastern Domain There have always been rumors about alien races.
However, as Qiu Fanghui said, alien races live in very deep places and cannot be seen under normal circumstances.
"Of course, if fellow Daoist Cao really wants to see a foreign race, I have a good place to go."
Qiu Fanghui showed a special smile, "There is a Hidden Spring Pavilion in East Market, and there is Sea Race who took Transformation Pill."
Most Demon Beast require Nascent Soul to transform, and some special bloodlines even require Spirit Transformation or even higher cultivation.
But there are also some Demon Race, such as Fox Clan, where you can get the human form in the Golden Core Realm.
Or if necessary, you can also take Transformation Pill to gain this ability.
"Well... let's forget it."
Cao Mingjie smiled bitterly and shook his head, "A brothel of this level is simply a gold-selling den. There is no place where I can afford to spend money."
After all, the lowest price there is Tier 3 Demon Beast, so the price naturally remains high.
"That's not necessarily the case."
Yu Zhenyang said with a smile, "Maybe we can make a lot of money by going to the ruins this time Spirit Stone."
While a few people were chatting and laughing, they came to Lightless Tavern in the middle of East Market.
As a landmark building of Lightless Island, even though it was just afternoon time and not yet lunch time, the place was already crowded with guests and the traffic was very lively.
After all, many monks who come here for the first time will choose to come here to have a look.
"I'm really sorry, today's private room has been booked in advance, and it won't be available for the next ten days."
The Zhike in the store brought bad news. "A few days ago, there were rumors that some ruins would be opened on the tenth day of July, so our place was already booked as early as the day before yesterday."
"Does the guest want to stay and try the special roasted fish?"
Yu Zhenyang and Qiu Fanghui discussed it and finally decided to come and have a makeshift meal.
Xiao Chen has always been indifferent to this, and he is not picky about food. Instead, he is more interested in the starting time of the ruins.
So while the other four were studying the menu, they pulled Zhike and asked, "Has the date of the ruins been determined?"
"Where did this news come from?"
Zhike shook his head. "You are just a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. How can you understand such a big thing? It's just hearsay."
"It is said that the news came from the Yin Corpse Sect, but I don't know whether it is true or not."
Xiao Chen did not embarrass him, after all, Foundation Establishment Cultivator did have limited knowledge.
"Is this fellow Daoist also here to explore the ruins of the Heaven Star Sect?"
Someone at the table next to me took the initiative to chat. "The time of the ruins is indeed the tenth day of the seventh month, but it's only three quarters to one hour in the evening."
"This news was not originally obtained by the Yin Corpse Sect, but came from Falling Fate Master from the Heaven's Secret Pavilion. It was only spread by the Yin Corpse Sect on his behalf."
The monk who spoke looked middle-aged, wearing a green shirt with a jade belt, and holding a folding fan.
There were two companions beside him, both dressed similarly.
"Thank you fellow Daoist for reminding me."
Xiao Chen raised his hand and thanked him, "Golden Light Rogue Cultivator, do you know your surname?"
The other party responded, "Mr. Cheng is just a casual cultivator, with a single name of Jie."
The two parties nodded to each other and didn't talk much.
After all, for Cheng Jie, they will be considered competitors after entering the ruins in a few days, so naturally they have no intention of leaking more information.
Xiao Chen doesn't think they have a competitive relationship, but he has never been a gossiper.
"Daoist Jinguang, please order some dishes too."
Yu Zhenyang handed over the menu. "I'm not sure about your taste, so it's up to you to pick two favorites."
Xiao Chen took the menu without looking at it carefully, and pointed at it casually. "Then let me have a gathering of heroes."
I have to say that Lightless Tavern is very efficient.
One of the best-selling signature dishes - Jade Belt Golden Scale Soup - was quickly served.
It is a special soup made by cutting the best real sea bream into thin strips and making them into "jade belts" and frying golden shrimps into "golden scales".
Each person was given a small bowl, and it looked like there was only about three ounces of soup and water.
However, its unit price is as high as three hundred Spirit Stone.
Xiao Chen After tasting it, the fish meat melted in the mouth and the shrimps were firm and elastic.
It tastes really good, but it doesn't help improve your cultivation at all.
Identified as flashy.
The entire meal was all about complimenting Qiu Fanghui, which was really boring.
Xiao Chen I really don't want to follow them and flatter them, and I don't want to just keep my head down.
After all, not to mention the limited dishes, he is still Body Cultivator. If he really eats it, he will weigh hundreds of pounds.
So I had to look left and right to take stock of my surroundings.
However, when he looked at it, he really made an unexpected discovery.
In the southeast corner of the hall, three female nuns with delicate looks and graceful postures were sitting.
The point is that although they wear different styles of skirts, they have the same patterned purses tied around their waists.
It seems to be a disciple from the Cloud Pool Sea Heavenly Sound Sect.
According to rumors, Heavenly Sound Sect is good at the art of sound killing. More than 70% of his disciples are female cultivators, and the remaining 30% include Guest Elder and sect servants.
All in all, the whole sect is prosperous and Yang is declining, but Cloud Pool Sea's status is very transcendent.
At the same time, it is also one of the famous sects throughout Eastern Domain.
