For Zhang Liang, he still has a long life.
It's only now less than one-seventh of it. This is the fundamental reason why his appearance has not changed, because he is still very young.
On the other hand, Yang Xue is now in her mid-forties, and her life is already halfway through. No matter how well-maintained she is, she can never be as pure and charming as a flowery girl.
Just listen to Yang Xue say: "Mountain Master, I dare to ask for something."
"explain."
Zhang Liang didn't refuse directly. He heard a sense of indifference from Yang Xue's voice. He guessed that after half his life, his mind and vision were different, and he also looked away.
For the sake of the joy in the past, Zhang Liang wouldn't mind if it was just a trivial matter.
I only heard Yang Xue say: "Master, in the concubine's clan, there have been several young people with good qualifications in recent years. The most outstanding one is my niece, who is twelve years old and has an eighth-level spiritual root. I am bold enough to ask for help. Can you ask the mountain master to accept me as a disciple?"
"disciple?"
Zhang Liang has never thought about this problem, but the talent of the eighth-level spiritual root is indeed not low, at least better than himself. He has only managed to upgrade to the seventh-level spiritual root, and he is not as good as others.
However, the matter of accepting disciples is really a waste of time. Moreover, he is not good at teaching female disciples.
However, whether she is accepted or not, this girl is from Biyou Island. She is afraid that she will be involved with Biyou Island in the future. It is not a good thing to leave her alone.
Zhang Liang pondered for a moment: "After the beast wave is over, you can bring it to have a look."
"Thank you, Mountain Master."
Zhang Liang waved his hand, signaling Yang Xue to step back and close his eyes to rest.
Six days later.
Biyou Island suddenly became lively because the tide of little beasts finally arrived.
At this moment, Biyou Port is overcrowded.
True to his promise, Zhang Liang began to sell spiritual insects reluctantly and opened hundreds of stalls, but he still could not stop the enthusiasm of buyers.
At this moment, Zhang Liang received an invitation from Taoist Baimei to come to Biyou Port.
At the berth of the port, there is an endless stream of Dharma boats. Some people are happy, some are sad, some are returning after suffering heavy injuries, and some may not be able to come back, but no one knows.
"The goods have been received. The ferocious beasts are purchased in stock and settled on site. The price is high..."
"Demon elixir, high-level demon elixir."
"Everyone passing by the Demon Blood Acquisition Office, don't miss it. High-level demon blood collection is here~"
"Fish skin recycling, focusing on exquisite fish skin for a hundred years."
"Pre-sale of spiritual talismans. Ultra-low-level spiritual talismans. If you can't buy them, you will be fooled. If you can't buy them, you will suffer a loss!"
"Array Fale, set up the formation on the spot, how can you save your life in the immortal sea without the help of the formation?"
"Baozi, hot buns just out of the cage, are all made of ferocious beast meat. They taste amazing and can strengthen your body. Don't miss it!"
The port is bustling with people doing everything.
And there are some businesses here that others simply cannot get involved in.
One is the resource exchange point of Lingxian Building.
Another thing is that most of the spiritual insect stalls here are managed by the three major insect farms. Even a small insect farm cannot occupy a stall so close to the port dock.
Zhang Liang saw that there were many queues in front of the spiritual insect stall, and he heard someone say: "Why don't you buy it for me? There is a purchase limit, why don't you buy it for me?"
The stall owner laughed: "One person can only buy it once. You have bought it at other stalls, but you can't buy it here."
"Nonsense, why do you say that I have already bought it from another place?"
The stall owner laughed: "Fellow Taoist, don't forget what I do. Are you sure you want to compete with an insect farmer for this?"
When the man heard this, he immediately walked away, and the stall owner didn't stop him. It didn't matter at all, because he knew how popular downloading spirit bugs were.
Zhang Liang did not stay any longer, but went directly to the third floor of the dock. There were already many people here, and Taoist Baimei had already prepared tea.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Liang raised his hands and said, "I have seen Fairy Chen Yin and Fairy Fei Su."
Chen Yin had a guqin in front of him. He was playing it lightly, but now he stopped and nodded to Zhang Liang.
Zhang Liang came forward and Li Huo followed.
Just listen to Li Huo say: "Hey, the mountain master is here? Do you know that the beast tide has begun?"
Zhang Liang smiled and nodded: "As far as the popularity of the port is concerned, if I can't see it anymore, what's the difference between me and a blind man? I just don't know why Fellow Taoist Baimei invited us here now?"
Taoist Baimei said leisurely: "I didn't want to bother you at first, but the situation is critical. This beast wave has spread too much, covering an area of hundreds of thousands of miles. The higher ups are paying great attention to us, and they want me to wait for the strong ones to fight all night long. Stay here. Once there is any change in the Immortal Sea, it will be time for us to take action."
Li Huo said: "Everyone, I just received a message from above. This beast tide, Lingxian Palace and its surroundings, has suffered a lot of damage. The radiation range of the overall beast tide may cover more than 500 islands. Even..."
"Even what? Why is Captain Li still hesitating?"
Li Huo said with an ugly face: "There may even be a big beast wave in the near future."
"What."
"Captain Li, this is no joke."
Li Huo sighed: "How dare I make this joke? Rao Shangxian originally wanted to visit Biyou Island, but now he is also left on Lingxian Island."
At this time, Du Feng came in a hurry, his face turned ugly.
When everyone saw this, they couldn't help but ask: "Deacon Du, why are you so frowning?"
Du Feng gritted his teeth and said: "I received news from the headquarters of Lingxian Tower, saying that the supply of materials to Lingxian Tower must be extended to once a month. You must know that it used to be once every half a month, but now the time has been doubled, and it is during the beast tide. During this period, there will definitely be a shortage of supplies in the building.”
Zhang Liangliang's head thought. This thing was much worse than he imagined.
Although he didn't know what the big beast tide was like, it was by no means comparable to the small beast tide.
Just listen to Zhang Liang say: "If the big beast tide really forms, what do we need to worry about?"
Li Huo: "In the beginning, we don't have anything to worry about. But once the big beast tide is defeated by Lingxian Palace, that's when the trouble begins. The flowing beast tide may attack any island. Even, in the next period of time, Outside the Immortal Sea on each island, it is very likely that second-level ferocious beasts will appear, which will be extremely detrimental to the fishermen and farmers on ordinary fairy islands. Moreover, except for the corpses of ferocious beasts, other materials can be said to be quite scarce."
Zhang Liang couldn't help rubbing his eyebrows: "When that time comes, will the island have to be closed?"
Taoist Baimei also stroked his forehead: "Sealing the island is not a long-term solution. Once a large number of ferocious beasts spread here, they are likely to stay here for a long time. In the next few years, or even up to ten years, the outer sea area will be more dangerous than before. Several times. Then we will have to rely on fish farmers and me to slowly eliminate it."
"eliminate?"
Zhang Liang couldn't help but wonder, why is it similar to the purge peripherals of the Black Fish Department?
If this is the case, although everyone is temporarily trapped, but with the resources of these ferocious beasts, perhaps under this beast wave, many people will make a leap in strength.
Just listening, Fairy Wu Meng said: "At that time, the burden of hunting the second-level ferocious beasts will probably fall mainly on you, Master Zhang!"
Zhang Liang raised his eyebrows: "Fairy Wumeng, you think too highly of me. I will definitely accept one or two of them. If there are eight of ten, I'm afraid it won't be enough to fill them in."
When everyone heard this, they wanted to laugh, but they were helpless because they all knew that there was nothing wrong with what Zhang Liang said. Zhang Liang can hunt second-level ferocious beasts with the help of spiritual insects, but he can only hunt occasionally. Otherwise, even if he uses all his cards and releases all the spiritual insects in the three major insect fields, how many can he hunt?
After Du Feng paced for a while, he immediately said: "Everyone, I have to go first. The acquisition standards of Lingxian Tower have to be lowered. Alas, I have to be scolded again."
Taoist Baimei also stood up and said: "You are all leaders of Biyou Island. This beast tide, I and a few others must go out to patrol the sea. In the early stage of the beast tide, if you don't work in pairs, everyone can have some free time. . On this first day, it’s up to me and Fairy Wumeng to be together!”
Seeing that everyone had no objections, Taoist Baimei and Fairy Wumeng went out to sea first.
The first day of the beast tide.
Zhang Liang and others were at Biyou Port, drinking tea and cooking animals.
During this period, only Taoist Baimei, Fairy Wumeng, Li Huo and others were walking back and forth in the Immortal Sea. Li Huo is the law enforcement captain, so there is nothing he can do if he runs frequently.
In the end, at the end of the day, the number of ferocious beasts caught in Biyou Port alone reached more than 3,800, and this did not include many people who did not show it to the outside world.
The second day of the beast tide.
Silver Fairy Chen Yin and Finger Flying Flower Zhao Feisu went together and returned together. When they came back, they brought a first-order ferocious beast, a blue and white eel, which was eaten by everyone.
On this day, the throughput of ferocious beasts in Biyou Port was more than 4,800, which was not a lot. Fishermen and farmers can digest it themselves.
The third day of the beast tide.
Zhang Liang and the giant sword Taoist got together in a group and headed out to sea.
At sea, Taoist Jujian took Zhang Liang's dragon boat and sat cross-legged on the boat the whole time, saying little, which made the atmosphere a bit awkward.
This person's name is Taoist Jujian, and his name is Wang Tai. Just like his name, he is aloof and unsociable.
Zhang Liang could clearly feel that this person was a master of physical training. His physical training level was almost at the second level of physical training, and his qi training had also reached the peak of qi training.
This strength can be said to be very strong. With Zhang Liang's current status, theoretically he should not be able to defeat this giant sword Taoist without using spiritual insects.
Wang Tai didn't speak, and Zhang Liang didn't bother to talk to him. To be honest, he was much higher than him. Even if you stand here and let him chop you, he won't be able to chop you to death.
Because Wang Tai was only at the peak of his Qi training, he did not develop spiritual consciousness, so Zhang Liang quietly released his spiritual consciousness and searched the surroundings. At short distances, this is much easier to use than spirit insects.
Because the spiritual consciousness does not deliberately scan Wang Tai, Wang Tai will not find anything.
The so-called patrol actually means wandering around the outer sea area.
In order to show the ability of the insect farm master, Zhang Liang did not act too low-key.
As his spiritual consciousness swept away, he immediately discovered many traces of ferocious beasts on the seabed.
Yes, the density of ferocious beasts has indeed increased, but it is still far from the level of a beast tide.
If this is called a beast tide, then what do you call the one you encountered in the volcano secret realm?
After only half an hour at sea, Zhang Liang suddenly said: "Fellow Daoist Jujian, eight hundred meters to our side, lurking in the mud and sand, is a sea python, which should be a first-class top grade..."
"Brush~"
"Plop~"
Before Zhang Liang could say anything, Wang Tai had already plunged into the sea and ran straight 800 meters away. Zhang Liang couldn't laugh or cry. Is this guy so reckless?
At the bottom of the sea, Wang Tai was seen holding a giant one-foot-long broad sword in his hand. He slashed with a sword like a storm. He fought with the sea python and killed it easily without even taking ten breaths.
"Pfft~"
Tens of breaths later, Wang Tai broke out of the water and landed on Zhang Liang's dragon boat again, holding a large sea python about eight meters long in his hand.
Just listen to him say: "Zhang Shanzhu, you are responsible for finding, I am responsible for killing. How to distribute, you decide."
Zhang Liang opened his mouth: "One for each of us! When we go back, the extra ones will be yours."
Wang Tai raised his eyebrows and thought that Zhang Liang was quite cheerful. He just felt that Zhang Liang was only at the ninth level of qi training, but he didn't have the slightest greed for the first-level high-level ferocious beasts, which was very valuable.
In fact, Wang Tai didn't know that in Zhang Liang's storage bag, there were three top-level second-level ferocious beasts, not to mention the first-level ones.
However, since Wang Tai said this, why shouldn't he show off?
Although I don't like the first-level ferocious beasts, but throwing them to the insect farm as a bonus will probably make the insect farmers happy to death.
After a while.
Zhang Liang: "A thousand meters to the south, there is a black stone. It is not a stone, but a black stone crab. It is at least the first grade."
"Plop~"
This time, after more than eighty breaths, Wang Taicai returned and showed a bit of joy: "A top-grade ferocious beast of the first order, quite impressive. How do you distinguish it?"
Zhang Liang: "Same as before, each of us has one ferocious beast from each realm. Since this is the first-level ferocious beast, fellow Taoist Giant Swordsman can take it."
Wang Tai said in surprise: "Give me these two? Master Zhang, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to find them later?"
Zhang Liang smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, as long as there are high-level ferocious beasts in this sea area, there is nothing I can't find."
A flash of light flashed in Wang Tai's eyes. He was indeed the leader of the three major insect farms. Not to mention his combat prowess, his ability to control insects and find prey was really incomparable to them.
In just three hours, Wang Tai took eight shots, which was a huge harvest.
This made him feel lucky that he came out with Zhang Liang, otherwise it would be hard to say how many high-level ferocious beasts he would encounter in the whole day.
Of course, during these three hours, they encountered many fish farmers. So far, no surprises have been foreseen.
At dusk, Wang Tai's eyes changed when he looked at Zhang Liang. Why was he patrolling here? This is obviously someone who brought the God of Wealth out to hunt for treasure!
In just one day, they captured 18 first-class top-grade ferocious beasts and 12 first-grade top-grade ferocious beasts, and they also surrounded most of the outer sea area. Such harvests were simply unbelievable.
Finally, when he was about to return, Wang Tai said curiously: "Zhang Shanzhu, if you insect controllers consider going to the body refining stream again, with this kind of tracking ability, even in Lingxian Island, I'm afraid there will be someone there." Are you trying to win over me?"
Zhang Liang smiled and said: "Refining the body! It's easier said than done. Today's harvest is mainly due to Brother Wang's strength. Otherwise, if I were to hunt alone, I wouldn't be able to hunt so much."
Wang Tai: "Zhang Shanzhu doesn't need to be humble. Without your guidance, I'm afraid I won't be able to find one."
Zhang Liang responded with a smile and asked his own question: "Brother Wang, is this not a formal beast tide? I thought the beast tide was the kind of black and fierce beasts, scrambling to be the first to sweep across the sea."
Wang Tai: "You are talking about a large beast tide. Compared with the beast tide that besieged Lingxian Island, there would be such a number of ferocious beasts. The small beast tide is not that exaggerated, at least it will not form a torrent of ferocious beasts. But even though In this way, the tide of small beasts is also extremely dangerous. Today, hundreds of vicious beasts appeared one after another around our hull, adsorbing on the hull. Although we are not strong enough, that is because we are very strong. If replaced by ordinary fish farmers, But we may not be able to handle it. Moreover, the tide of little beasts at the moment has just begun."
That night.
Wang Tai returned with his harvest, and everyone became excited when they heard that Wang Tai had killed eighteen first-level top-grade ferocious beasts and twelve top-grade first-grade ferocious beasts in one day.
Li Huo immediately said: "Master Zhang, how about we form a team tomorrow? Just sit on the boat."
Zhang Liang shook his head slightly: "Forget it, you just saw that I hunted many high-level ferocious beasts, but have you ever thought about how many spiritual insects I lost? This is a tide of beasts."
Du Feng: "Haha, don't embarrass Brother Zhang. You all have spiritual insects in your hands. You should know how much it takes to hunt so many high-level ferocious beasts. Our mission is not to hunt, but to protect Biyou Island. Safe and sound."
After everyone heard this, they stopped entangled.
On the fourth day, Li Huo went out with an old monk who was at the ninth level of Qi training. In the end, of course something happened, and Li Huo came back injured, his face bloodless.
When everyone saw this, they immediately stepped forward.
"Captain Li, why are you so seriously injured? Where is Mr. Yang?"
Li Huoji said: "Jie, Jie Xiu. Mr. Yang died on the spot."
"Jie Xiu?"
Everyone looked at each other, and then the white-browed Taoist said: "What kind of calamity cultivator can hurt you two like this? Is it a foundation-building expert?"
Li Huo: "No, the three of them are all in the qi training realm. The opponent's strength is amazing, they are both at the peak of qi training, but I am no match at all. We still managed to escape by borrowing the Baili Talisman."
Zhang Liang thought thoughtfully, what did the powerful Jie Xiu do on Biyou Island? There are so many islands outside, why did he come to rob Biyou Island? Is there anything on Biyou Island worth robbing?
Zhang Liang couldn't figure it out, and neither could anyone else.
Starting from the fifth day, several people formed groups of three and two groups went to sea at the same time. If an accident occurs, another team will immediately rush to help.
By doing this, it was true that Jie Xiu was never seen again.
It was thirteen days until the tide of small beasts came. On this day, the number of ferocious beasts began to increase, and it was several times denser than in the previous days.
Maritime fish farmers often have accidents, and their fate monuments are broken piece by piece.
Finally, Taoist Baimei and others decided to go out in four groups to inspect the Immortal Sea to see if there were any high-level ferocious beasts showing off their evil deeds so that they could be destroyed.
On this day, Zhang Liang, Li Huo, and Chen Yin were in a group of three.
The three of them went to sea for nearly two hundred miles and killed more than eight first-class ferocious beasts along the way.
Li Huo: "Sure enough, there are more high-level ferocious beasts. No wonder there are so many casualties on Biyou Island."
"Um?"
However, Zhang Liang, who had not taken the inspection seriously in the presence of the old god, suddenly felt something in his heart. Because in his spiritual perception, he discovered several very secretive second-order middle-grade spiritual insects.
You know, on Biyou Island, no one other than yourself should have so many second-order mid-grade spiritual insects.
Zhang Liang used the excuse of a quick inspection and controlled the boat to run for another hundred miles. He found that these spiritual insects were still following him, and there were as many as eleven of them.
The number of spiritual insects that followed him throughout the journey was as many as 23. And these spiritual insects are all second-order spiritual insects, and nearly half are even second-order mid-grade.
"It's interesting. Use spiritual insects to track me?"
As Zhang Liang began to point out the high-level ferocious beasts, the number of second-level spirit insects on the seabed began to slowly increase.
From a dozen at the beginning, there are now more than fifty.
This made Zhang Liang puzzled. If the person who came here was at the peak of Qi training, then his method of raising insects would be quite good.
However, a moment later, Zhang Liang suddenly felt a spiritual consciousness sweeping over him.
Immediately, his mind moved, spiritual consciousness, foundation building?
At that moment, Zhang Liang no longer used his spiritual consciousness to explore, but immediately withdrew his spiritual consciousness. At this moment, he was wondering, was it necessary for Foundation Establishment Overhaul to take action against them?
There is no need now, they have already established their foundations, and they don’t care about these high-level ferocious beasts at all.
The other party has obviously been planning for a long time to follow his Dharma ark. If it wasn't for Li Huo and Zhao Feisu, then it was for himself?
Suddenly, Zhang Liang guessed something.
But then he cursed in a low voice: "What's wrong with me eating a few small insect fields? Just for this, is it necessary to come to the foundation-building powerhouse to block myself?"
Yes, the opponent can control spiritual insects, and there are so many second-level spiritual insects, so he is definitely not an ordinary insect master. It's just that Zhang Liang didn't expect that a foundation-building expert would come to the scene in person?
What he doesn't understand is, is foundation building so worthless now? For such a trivial matter, why would you go to Biyou Island to find a place in the beast tide?
Zhang Liang suddenly said: "Two thousand meters directly ahead, there are many high-level ferocious beasts, about seven or eight in number. I will send hundreds of millions of spiritual insects to help you!"
When Li Huo and Zhao Feisu heard this, they immediately rushed away.
And Zhang Liang indeed sent ten thousand spiritual insects to accompany him.
However, just after Zhang Liang and the others were more than 500 meters away, a figure in green clothes floated over.
Zhang Liang glanced at him lightly: "Are you finally willing to show up?"
The person was confused: "You are a bit brave. How did you know you were being followed?"
Zhang Liang shrugged slightly: "I am also an insect master. I am a second-level middle-grade spiritual insect. Although it is well hidden, it does not mean that it cannot be discovered. Are you here for me?"
"My little friend, you swallowed all the insect farms on Biyou Island in one go. Didn't you think you would be retaliated against?"
Zhang Liang didn't panic at all, and said calmly: "I have thought about it, but I never thought that Foundation Establishment Overhaul would personally come to take revenge on me. Is it worth it for just a small insect farm?"
"It's just a small insect farm, so naturally it's not worth it. But the three major insect farms on Biyou Island and the second-level spiritual insects on you should be worth my visit. If you are willing to surrender to me, I can keep you here today." Life."
Zhang Liang did not answer, but asked: "Lingxian Island was attacked by a beast tide. As a foundation-building major, you were not on Lingxian Island, but came to Biyou Island. I am very curious."
There was a touch of sarcasm on the corner of this man's mouth: "Others have gone to resist the beast tide, so why don't I have access to all the fairy islands in the sea?"
"Oh, it turns out you are here to make money from disaster. Don't you want to know what will happen to you once the incident comes to light?"
"Ha! Boy, are you here to chat with me?"
"That's right, you are here to rob, so you are the so-called rob cultivator a few days ago?"
"A few days ago?"
"Looks like it's not you."
Seeing that Zhang Liang was calm and calm, the foundation-building major cultivator scanned his spiritual consciousness repeatedly, fearing that there was something fishy.
However, after repeated inspections, nothing seemed to have changed. Those two who are at the peak of their Qi training are still hunting the first-order ferocious beasts, and they still need to fight for a while.
Just listen to this person say: "Forget it, I am in a hurry, there is the next island waiting for me, I will take you first."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man swung his palm out of the air and made a big white palm, which looked extremely fierce.
However, when the man saw that Zhang Liang was not avoiding him, he didn't even care about his White Smoke Palm.
"ill?"
"Just practicing Qi, do you think you are the ancestor of Jindan?"
"Bang~"
However, the white smoke palm hit Zhang Liang and exploded with a bang, but Zhang Liang did not move at all.
Instead, a long sword appeared in Zhang Liang's hand, and he looked up at him slightly and said, "That's it?"
