A heart-to-heart talk completely opened up Zhang Hu's heart and strengthened his thoughts. When things got to this point, he had no choice but to fight to the death. He left immediately and started implementing Cheng Ling's plan.
At this time, Cheng Ling could no longer sit still on the main peak. He wanted to set up an eighth-level immortal formation covering thousands of miles above the blue sea, connecting it to the Luochen Continent.
The best way is to cover the Sword Sect's ruins in the formation. As the top sect in ancient times, there must be formations in the inheritance place of the Sword Sect. With a little movement, the original formations can be connected with the subsequent formations.
This was also a helpless move. There were only two months before the invasion of the Hai Clan. Even Cheng Ling found it a bit difficult to deduce all the nodes of an eighth-level immortal formation in such a short time. This time, he didn't have the patience to let the formation hall disciples follow him to study.
Sneaking into the seabed and walking along the direction of the Jianzong ruins, his eyes flashed with azure light from time to time, which was the manifestation of the Holy Eye of the Netherworld operating to its limit. When looking for the formation nodes of the Jianzong ruins, we can only ignore the losses.
But it is still very difficult. It has not been known how many thousands of years have passed since the fall of the Sword Sect. Finding it will not be a day's work.
After searching like this for more than ten days, I finally caught a faint trace of the formation. He was ecstatic in his heart and quickly followed the traces of the formation's fluctuations to observe.
After continuing to sneak for three more days and observing almost all the nodes, he immediately felt relieved. As expected, the place of inheritance was indeed protected by formations. But after years of erosion, many nodes began to collapse and needed to be reset.
But for him, it only takes ten days to find the location of the node and then re-enter the formation base.
But this is only the first step. The second step is to reset a formation center and drive the Green Lotus Colored Flag into it. The most ideal location is the center of the Luochen Continent and the Jianzong ruins, so that both sides can be taken into account, and the coverage of the formation can be greatly enhanced.
He returned again, and after several days of sneaking around, it was estimated that he was almost ready. Then he took out the green lotus colored flag from the storage ring and plunged it into the seabed.
In an instant, the seafloor ground trembled violently, like an earthquake. With the Green Lotus Flag as the center, a powerful shock wave was formed that continued to spread to all sides. Wherever the waves passed, the seawater rolled violently, like a tidal wave, one after another, slamming against the coast.
This continued for several days before the changes under the sea gradually calmed down. But the next moment, where the Green Lotus Treasure Flag was, a bright golden light pillar rose into the sky, rushing from the bottom of the sea to the sky to the top of the sky.
Immediately afterwards, along the center of the formation, pillars of light rose up from the bottom of the sea one after another, one...two...three...until one hundred and eight pillars of light, Every node position was triggered, and a layer of white mist began to brew on the sea, spreading and spreading towards the surroundings...
These one hundred and eight bright golden light pillars stayed for a very long time, lasting about two hours, and could be seen by monks and sea people within a radius of thousands of miles.
"What a magical light. Human ruins were discovered in Sandao Bay more than half a year ago. They also emit colorful dazzling light. Looking at it now, it is still in that direction. What is going on? Is there another rare treasure from heaven and earth?"
"Huh? This beam of light seems to be at the edge of the destination. Could it be related to Jiansha Li and others being trapped?"
"There are weird things, there are problems, there are treasures! This kind of light appears in the blue sea realm, and wherever millions of troops pass by, those who block it look at it with disdain. This treasure is destined to belong to the Sword Shark Clan, hehehe~! Send the order, let's The army is marching faster, don’t let the humans take the lead.”
"Yes, General Sword Shark."
"Damn it, we must get ahead of the Sword Shark Clan. If not, is there still room for my Tiger Shark Clan in the Land of Blue Sea? Let the battleship move as fast as possible!"
"Such a strong treasure light. Could there be another treasure appearing in the world? Unfortunately, in the blue sea, I heard that the Hai Clan has sent out an army to destroy the Luochen Sword Sect. It's better not to join in the fun at this moment!"
"You damn Sea Clan, if I get that treasure, I might be able to make great progress in cultivation. As the saying goes, wealth can be found in danger, so fight for it!"
"..."
Wherever the light beam touched, whether it was the sea race or the human race, everyone was jealous and went there one after another.
In the past few decades, earth-shattering changes have continued to occur in the Zhongyuan Continent. A long time ago, there was the Black Demon Abyss in the southeast. I don’t know what happened in it. The ground shook and the mountains shook for several months before it calmed down.
Next is the southwest direction, which is inaccessible and full of dense forests and mountains. It has always been the territory of the demon clan. Further on is the bloody wasteland in the northwest. The Jiuyou Immortal Mansion appeared, causing a bloody storm. It was rumored that it was acquired by Cheng Ling, a disciple of the Wuji Sect.
Now it's Lan Hai's turn. What's terrible is that the Luochen Sword Sect also had a conflict with the Hai Clan, trapping the 100,000 troops of the Sword Shark Clan and the Tiger Shark Clan. The Hai Clan was furious and the war was about to break out. At this moment, a shocking incident occurs on the sea. It is conceivable that another bloody killing is about to take place.
Everyone speculated, but no one knew the reason.
Cheng Ling couldn't control much of this. After the formation was completed, he sensed the monks and sea clan experts coming from all directions, sneered at the corner of his mouth, and left.
Returning to the Luochen Sword Sect, he first summoned Zhang Hu and asked about the effect of the elixir. The answer he got pleased him. This elixir was extremely effective. After swallowing it, the cultivator of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Immortal Stage who was tested was able to improve his cultivation by a small level in less than two hours. .
Cheng Ling was overjoyed and hurriedly called Su Zimo over, taught him the recipe and asked him to refine it at full speed.
Next, he called Mei Aohan and a group of formation hall elites without stopping, and went to the edge of the illusion formation on the Luochen Continent to start strengthening the formation.
After all, a hundred thousand troops have been trapped for more than half a year. The sea tribe inside are trying to rush out like crazy, as well as the monks who later entered the formation battle. The movement caused by the battle between the two sides is likely to damage the formation base, which needs to be repaired in time. .
This time, he explained in detail the location and layout of the magic array's nodes, and then he asked Mei Aohan and others to start repairing it. While repairing, I also kept giving guidance.
The Hai Clan's million-strong army is coming soon to ensure that the 100,000 people trapped on the mainland have no chance of escaping. But he didn't have the ability to clone himself, and he still had to preside over the battle on the sea. After much deliberation, he could only let the disciples of the Formation Hall take action, thus completely trapping these 100,000 people here.
After explaining all this, Cheng Ling called Zhang Hu, Song Yingjie, Fang Zhongshi, and Dongfang Bai, and said: "There is still some time before the arrival of the Hai Clan army. The 100,000 troops trapped here are a hidden danger. , take this opportunity to let those monks who are willing to stay go all out and kill the Sea Clan to the best of their ability. If the order is passed, any monk who provides an inner elixir of the Sea Clan can exchange it for a Tianhua Pill."
Everyone gasped, the Tianhua Pill was developed by Hu Yue and was refined from the Hai Clan's inner elixir. Depends on the grade of the Sea Clan's inner elixir. The low-level Sea Clan's inner elixir is called the first-grade Tianhua Dan, the middle-grade is the second-grade, and the high-grade is the third-grade.
The key is the effect of the elixir. Each one can improve a small level. It is conceivable that those monks will go completely crazy when they hear such a reward!
Cheng Ling wanted to use generous rewards to mobilize the enthusiasm of all the monks.
As soon as he finished speaking, he picked up a teleportation token and rushed into the illusion formation first. The other four people saw it and rushed in one after another.
After Zhang Hu entered the illusion formation, he carefully looked around, chose a direction at random and rushed over. In the past few months, he had spent very little time in the illusion formation, but he had also killed more than a dozen mid-level sea tribesmen. After these few battles, his cultivation and understanding of the way of heaven had improved.
In this, Jiuyou Immortal Mansion played a big role. Since refining Jiuyou Immortal Mansion into his body, his cultivation has advanced much faster. He has surpassed Song Yingjie and reached the late stage of Immortal King. Coupled with the countless pure Yang stones in the Immortal Mansion, his Physical training and cultivation make thousands of miles with each passing day.
Pure Yang Stone can fill the qi and blood, temper the body, temper the soul, and also temper the immortal essence. The tempering of qi and blood has great effects on both body refiners and non-body refiners. When qi and blood are full and strong, the body's strength becomes stronger, and in the end one can even cultivate a pure yang body.
A body of pure yang, with qi and blood like a rainbow, strong physique, full of yang energy, inaccessible to ghosts, invulnerable to all evil, and amazing recovery ability.
It is extremely difficult to cultivate a pure yang body. The first step is to maintain a pure yang body and not have sex. Secondly, the more qi and blood you have, the greater the probability of success. Finally, you need to persist in absorbing pure yang. The Qi is tempered until it reaches the limit.
Cheng Ling had many beauties and confidants and had long since lost her pure Yang body, but Zhang Hu could. Although this boy has learned that Cheng Ling is probably cunning and scheming, he is still a novice when it comes to men and women. He has been practicing Taoism for hundreds of years and has not come close to being a womanizer.
After practicing with Pure Yang Stone for a long time, his physical fitness and combat power have reached the top of the same level. This time, he was very lucky and did not encounter a powerful sea clan. Although the other party was also a high-level sea clan, his aura was only about three stars, which was equivalent to the perfection of the human immortal king.
The Hai tribe had been trapped by the formation for more than half a year, wandering around in the white mist all day long. They couldn't get out and were almost going crazy. Seeing Zhang Hu appear, he ignored it and came over with a sea fork about ten feet long in his hand.
Zhang Hu moved his hand, and a black scabbard came to the palm of his left hand. It was the Nine Jue Sword. With one draw of his right hand, he took out the sword of fire and started fighting with him.
The Nine Ultimate Sword was recently refined by Zhang Hu in a weapon competition. On the surface, it is a black scabbard, but in fact it can be turned into nine top-notch middle-grade swords, namely: gold, wood, water, and fire. , earth, thunder, light, darkness and space nine!
He is a five-attribute spiritual root monk, and what he is best at is naturally the five elements. As for the remaining four swords, he only meets Cheng Ling's requirements and has not dabbled in them.
The reason for this, to put it bluntly, was Cheng Ling's intention. After a battle with the Nine Yang True God in the sea of consciousness, he had an intuition that among the artistic conception of the attributes of heaven and earth, the five elements, light, darkness, space, and time are the main ones, and the other attributes can be counted as their branches.
Only by integrating these nine attributes can we go further on the path of cultivation in the future. Of course, Zhang Hu's refining of these nine swords was somewhat different from what he expected. At least the swords containing the attribute of time were not refined.
There was no way around it. The attribute of time was too profound. Even he himself could only understand 10% of the artistic conception. With Zhang Hu's current level of weapon refining, he couldn't refine it at all.
