The sky was clear, the fire was rising, and there was a small pot on it. The fish soup inside was steaming. Wei Sheng Suwen was teaching Qi Guanyu and Shentu Qi how to grill fish. Yan Feiyue, Tong Yi, Longxin Three girls were sitting in a row on the bank of the river fishing, yes, fishing.
"We can no longer walk along the river bank. If we want to go east, we have to enter the river." While Wei Sheng Suwen was grilling fish, he looked up at the river bank in front of him that turned north, and then looked at a vast lake. Said worriedly.
"Then enter the lake -" Qi Guanyu waved his hand, and a small cruise ship ran aground on the shore.
"This, this, this - this is a sixth-level magic ship. It is still made of hundred-year-old spiritual wood and hundred-year-old black iron. Even the cultivation level of the out-of-body stage cannot penetrate this ship." There were three dragon cores surrounding her. The half-height Dharma boat looked around and touched here and there, feeling envious.
"This sixth-level magic ship was redeemed by me when I was in the Central Continent, using up all the points I had accumulated in my sect for ten years." Qi Guanyu couldn't figure out why he insisted on using all his points to redeem it in the first place. , but now it comes in handy.
"How many spiritual stones are equivalent to ten years of points?" Yan Feiyue asked curiously.
"Five thousand pieces of middle-grade spiritual stones——" Qi Guanyu said.
"Ahem, cough, cough -, five hundred thousand low-grade spiritual stones? That much?" Shen Tuqi choked on his own saliva.
"It's also fifty high-grade spiritual stones. Sixth-level magic ships are hard to come by. Usually families or sects specially find weapon refiners to customize them. That can't be solved by fifty high-grade spiritual stones. And I This Dharma ship was originally customized by the family who wanted to re-customize it better, so the weapon refiner took it out and bought it alone-" Qi Guanyu now felt that this thing was actually worth buying.
"Then if you say so, it's indeed worth it." Wei Sheng said after thinking for a while.
"Then let's repair tonight and set off tomorrow -" Tong Yi put away the fishing rod, holding a small bucket with splashing water, and said to several people.
"Okay, let's rest on this cruise ship tonight. It can help cover up the aura and defend against attacks during the out-of-body period." Qi Guanyu said.
"The fish soup and grilled fish are ready, ready to eat-" Shen Tuqi placed the skewers on the small dining table and began to serve the soup.
Others took over the work in their hands, sat around the fire and enjoyed the food.
"The spiritual energy in this secret realm is rich, and the fish raised are more delicious than those in the outer continent-" Yan Feiyue couldn't help but admire it after taking a sip of the fish soup.
"Now I finally know why the monks are thinking of going up. The difference in the cultivation environment is really too big." Tong Yi has not forgotten that Guan Yu said when he first entered the secret realm that the spiritual energy here is rich. The level is comparable to that of the Central Continent.
"More than that, there is never the possibility of ascension in the outer continent. The aura of the outer continent is not enough to support the arrival of the ascension channel." Qi Guanyu said.
"Guan Yu, have you ever seen a monk ascend?" Longxin asked curiously.
"No, I was only twenty years old before I went to the modern continent. I had seen Void Refining monks, but I had never seen anyone successfully ascended—" Qi Guanyu said.
"Has anyone ever succeeded in ascension?" Weisheng Suwen asked.
"Yes, it is said that there are people in the first and second level sects in the Central Continent who have successfully ascended." Qi Guanyu said truthfully.
"With a Void Refining cultivator, you can naturally ascend successfully -" Longxin said nonchalantly.
"There has always been a saying in the world of cultivation: There is not even one ascended monk out of ten. The origin of this sentence is unknown, but its practicality is very strong." Qi Guanyu only knew that the road to ascending is difficult, but no matter how difficult it is, Don't know, but one day, they will know.
As dusk fell, Shen Tuqi and Wei Sheng Suwen erased all traces of their lives on the river bank, and the six of them boarded the sixth-order Dharma boat stranded on the bank.
"This boat is no worse than a modern yacht!" Yan Feiyue looked at the three rooms in the cabin and was extremely satisfied.
"Isn't that right! You can also enjoy the scenery of the lake and mountains from the plywood. It's like a paradise on earth." Loong Xin was lying on the fence of the plywood, happily exchanging thoughts with Yan Feiyue below.
"You guys should rest as soon as possible! Wei Sheng and I will keep a vigil tonight." Shen Tuqi pushed the excited Loong Xin back to the room and said consolingly:
"Xianxin, it's getting dark, and we can't light the lights. Let's go back to the room and go to bed. We'll observe slowly tomorrow."
"All right--"
The night is getting dark, and you can only hear the river flowing quietly, and the low whining sounds of birds and animals. The cabin shrouded in darkness is even more silent than this dark night.
"Quick, get into the river——"
"What if there are monsters in the river?"
"I don't care about so much anymore, hurry up——"
Wei Sheng Suwen and Shen Tu Qi had been sitting on the plywood of the Dharma boat meditating. They didn't want to pay attention to the sound of conversations coming from far away, but the sound became more and more familiar to them.
When Shen Tuqi got off the boat, he saw three seniors from the Xiahou family and a female cultivator running towards this side in embarrassment. He quickly opened a hole in the defensive formation on the river bank and called out softly: "Senior, here--"
"Shentu——" Xia Hourong didn't know whether he should be happy or sad when he saw his acquaintance. What was chasing them was a monster in the out-of-body stage! But in the current situation, the two groups are destined to have nowhere to escape and can only stand together.
"Senior, get on the boat first." Wei Sheng Suwen removed the restrictions on the boat and extended his hand to Xia Hourong. He was stunned when he pulled the second person. Why was there a female cultivator?
After all four people got on the boat, Shen Tuqi quickly restored the defensive formations on the river bank, while Wei Sheng Suwen reopened the ban on the Dharma boat.
Xia Hourong's heart was beating wildly, but when he saw the monster chasing to the river bank, it seemed that it had lost the direction of its prey, and it suddenly relaxed.
The demonic beast was seen sniffing here and there. After searching to no avail, it turned around several times angrily, roared "woof, woof, woof--" and then left unwillingly.
"This, this - is this a dog?" Shen Tuqi asked in disbelief as he looked at the animal that looked like a pig but had chicken legs and barked in the distance.
"This is Li Li, a monster at the peak of Yuanying." Xia Hourong explained while looking at the two people who were making a fuss.
"There are some healing elixirs here. The seniors will calm down and adjust their breathing first. Shentu and I will keep vigil here." Wei Sheng Suwen looked at the embarrassed and panting people and said.
"The three of us still have elixirs on us. Just give this fellow Taoist Bai a few elixirs with different curative effects." Xia Hourong said, taking out his own elixirs and taking them. He then saw that several of his colleagues also took the elixirs. Just feel relieved.
Shen Tuqi wanted to roll his eyes when he saw the elixir bottle that was empty after the three members of the Xiahou family took the elixir. Why are you trying to be so strong at this time? His own people were so polite. Just when he was about to persuade, he heard Xiahou say The friend continued:
"Although the elixir is gone, we have harvested a lot of spiritual herbs from this trip, and we will have it refining in the furnace tomorrow."
"……"All right! He had forgotten that this was also a big shot alchemist.
The next day, when the sky was bright, Yan Feiyue, Qi Guanyu, Tong Yi, and Longxin went up to the plywood and saw four more people. It was not that they were not alert in their sleep, but they really trusted Wei Sheng Suwen and Shen Tuqi.
"You guys are up, let's have breakfast first." Wei Sheng Suwen had already set up a dining table on the deck, which was still fruit porridge.
Yan Feiyue, Tong Yi, and Longxin were very curious about the new female cultivator.
Xia Hourong couldn't understand everyone's doubts, so he explained: "This is Bai Xinyi, the only direct descendant of this generation of the Bai family, with a cultivation level of the ninth level of the Golden Core. You can just call him Taoist Brother Bai."
The main reason is that the cultivation of Yan Feiyue and others has advanced too fast, and they are both Golden Elixir monks like Taoist Fellow Bai, and the only direct descendant of the Bai family has not yet become the head of the family, so they can only call them Fellow Taoist. .
"..." It turns out to be the unlucky fellow Taoist Bai from the legend!
"I have caused trouble to everyone this time. I am ashamed to say that I am unable to repay you now. When I get out of the secret realm, the Bai family will do their best to repay you." Bai Xinyi promised with a pale face, but still pretended to be strong.
"You're welcome, Fellow Taoist Bai. Your news is beneficial to us. It's a fair deal. Let's have some breakfast together first! These juniors in my family are quite knowledgeable when it comes to delicious food." Xia Hourong couldn't bear to look at Fellow Daoist Bai. Feeling down, he invited me warmly.
"..." This time it's even more terrifying! The head of the Xiahou family, who had always told them not to put too much emphasis on their appetites, now actually praises them for being able to eat. This is very abnormal. Is this true~~~~
"Thank you, fellow Taoist Xiahou——" Bai Xinyi thanked her sincerely. This was the first person she met who extended a helping hand to her after she was brutally betrayed.
"Senior, why were you in such a mess last night?" Shen Tuqi still remembered how several people fled in a hurry yesterday. If he hadn't happened to meet them, they would have been doomed! No one would naively think that this river is a pure land.
"This monster has been chasing us for two days -" Xia Houzai, the son of the old shopkeeper Xia Hou, said.
"Uncle Zai, how did you meet?" Yan Feiyue was curious.
"It's still my fault. When passing by Zhaoyao Mountain, the descendants of the Bai family took a fancy to an eight-hundred-year-old sixth-level spiritual grass, and then they were targeted by Li Li, who was guarding the spiritual grass at the peak of Nascent Soul.
In order to escape, they wounded me while I was concentrating on fighting the enemy. They left me behind to block the knife and then left quickly. If it hadn't been for several Xiahou Taoists who saved me, I would have been in the monster's belly by now. It's here -" Bai Xinyi did not feel sorry for himself, but instead felt a sense of ridicule.
This trip to the secret realm finally allowed her to see the true face of the Bai family. She didn't expect that this family could no longer tolerate her, and she could really give up.
Yan Feiyue saw the expression of pain, struggle and hatred on the face of fellow Taoist Bai, and couldn't help but persuade:
"Now that Fellow Daoist Bai has escaped, let's practice in the secret realm and deal with those shameless people when we get out. Don't get entangled in it, as this is not conducive to your practice."
Bai Xinyi's mental journey in the past few days is really not as true as this Taoist friend Yan's words. She really shouldn't bother with those dirty tribesmen. She should go her own way and let them know when she gets out. Called her own path.
