Dayu national border, offshore area.
Over the vast sea area, you can see many escaping lights shuttle back and forth, and from time to time there are some that dive into the sea.
If you rely on the mountains, you can eat the mountains, if you rely on the sea, you can eat the sea.
The offshore area of Dayu is also filled with spiritual pearls, jade shells and other objects, as well as scattered seabed spiritual gold and spiritual grass. Many Qi Refining monks collect seabed resources in exchange for spiritual stones to provide for their own cultivation.
In further areas, there are real people in the foundation building stage who lead a team to hunt down the powerful monsters in the Fubo Sea. The risks are high, but the profits are also greater.
"These hundreds of thousands of miles of sea area have supported many monks."
Zhang Yao felt a little emotional when he saw this scene.
He flew all the way for more than three days, crossing the entire Fubo Sea, and saw many small sects and small aristocratic families on the islands in the sea, scattered and insignificant.
There are many countries along the Fubo Sea, but the only truly big countries are Dali and Dayu.
Dayu is not only to the east of the Fubo Sea, but also to the extreme east of the southwest. After crossing the barren border zone of Dayu, there are the southern countries among the hundreds of countries in the Central Plains.
"Buzz!"
Zhang Yao stretched out his powerful spiritual thoughts and spread them in all directions.
Under the blessing of the 'Ten Thousand Souls' Thoughts Formation', although his current power of souls and thoughts is not as great as his mana advantage, it can still surpass the ordinary late-stage golden elixir.
Such a powerful spiritual thought is enough to cover the surrounding area of several thousand feet in the sky and underground. In this area, there are many Qi Refining monks who come and go.
Soon, he zeroed in on a late-stage Qi Refining monk who was performing magic on the sea and preparing to dive under the sea.
"Wow..."
Silently, Zhang Yao used the secret soul-searching method, and his spiritual thoughts were blurred and sneaked into the soul of the monk in the late stage of Qi refining, looking through his memories to find the location of the mountain gate of Fuhai Sect.
"Um?"
Zhang Yao raised his eyebrows, as if the result surprised him:
"Hai Fu Sect's mountain gate moved to the Luoxia Mountains?"
"It seems that their situation is really bad...but they still have an ally, so it's not the worst situation."
Within the territory of Dayu, there are four major Jindan-level forces—Luoxia Sect, Tiansha Sect, Changbai Sword Sect, and Xuling Sect.
The Luoxia Mountains are where the gate of the Luoxia Sect is located. Master Haihe moved Haitian Floating Island to the Luoxia Mountains. The meaning of "joining forces to fight against the enemy" is obvious.
"So the current situation in the Dayu Immortal Realm is that Fuhai Sect and Luoxia Sect join forces to fight against Tiansha Sect, Changbai Sword Sect and Xuling Sect?"
In Zhang Yao's mind, thoughts flashed slightly:
"There must be some secret involved... Let's go and see for ourselves."
As soon as he thought of this, he made a turn in the light and flew towards the north.
…………
North of Dayu, Luoxia Mountains.
The Luoxia Mountains, which stretch for thousands of miles, are not majestic and majestic in the north of Dayu, but they contain one of the best spiritual veins in Dayu.
Since five years ago:
The Fuhai Sect moved the Shanmen Haitian Floating Island from the offshore area to the sky above the Luoxia Mountains.
This is equivalent to the two major sects sharing a medium-sized spiritual vein. This move caused dissatisfaction among many Luoxia sect disciples, but it was suppressed despite the strong objections of the sect's golden elixir ancestor 'Xiaguang Fairy'. Opposing voices.
Five years later, the relationship between the upper echelons of the two sects has become relatively harmonious, but there is still a vaguely hostile relationship between the middle and lower sect disciples.
On this day:
The gate of Luoxia Sect is in a deep valley.
The Jindan Patriarch 'Xiaguang Fairy' who is in charge of the Luoxia Sect is meeting with the Haihe Patriarch of the Fuhai Sect.
"Fellow Taoist Haihe."
Fairy Luoxia, dressed in a colorful palace dress and wearing a rainbow hairpin, has a dignified look on her face:
"The day when the Emerald Palace will open for the second time is getting closer."
"At that time, the two of us must enter the Jade Palace, but if there is no one in the sect to take charge, I am afraid that the Tiansha Sect will never miss this opportunity!"
"And the two of us are weak after all. We can't compete with the three of them in the Emerald Palace, and there is even a risk of falling..."
When she said this, she paused and then asked:
"When will the Qingxu ancestor you mentioned come?"
"Please rest assured, fairy."
Ancestor Haihe looked calm and said:
"The Master Zhuji who I sent to Dali to deliver congratulatory gifts has returned from Dali two days ago."
"She brought definite news. The Qingxu ancestor promised to come to Dayu in the near future. If we calculate the time, it should be almost within the next few days."
"That's good."
Fairy Xiaguang breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, but then she inevitably felt a little worried:
"I also know a little bit about the reputation of Patriarch Qingxu."
"He is a monk who can refine the formation into the body. His strength is far superior to monks of the same level. Even several of Dali's golden elixirs were defeated by him and had no choice but to surrender to him."
"But if he acts arrogantly and has a perverse personality, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to have the means to check and balance him..."
This is also what worries her the most:
In this battle for the Jade Shrine, she and Haihe Ancestor were forced to bring in foreign aid due to the situation, but they were worried that they would attract wolves into the house and cause even greater disasters.
"Here, he should be easier to get along with..."
Hearing this, Patriarch Haihe couldn't help but hesitate.
He originally subconsciously defended his friend, but when he thought of the rumors in the past, he hesitated and his tone lost confidence.
Is the now famous Ancestor Qingxu really the same Master Qingxu he knew back then?
"Fairy."
Ancestor Haihe really didn’t know what to say, so he changed the topic and changed the subject:
"Didn't you also invite a comrade? I wonder what her strength is?"
Hearing this, Fairy Xiaguang sighed and said:
"Fellow Daoist Haihe, we are all Jindan monks, and I won't hide it from you either."
"My close friend is from Jingguo. He has the bloodline of a demon cultivator. His strength is definitely better than mine, but compared to the Qingxu Ancestor, I'm afraid he is still far inferior."
"If he really has any bad intentions, we may not be able to stop him if we join forces..."
Ancestor Haihe was silent for a moment, then slowly said:
"Based on what I know about him in the past, he shouldn't be this kind of person, and he wouldn't be plotting against fellow Taoists' foundations and wealth."
"Besides, our current situation is not good and the situation is extremely dangerous. Under this situation, the more powerful he is, the better."
"After all, don't forget that Taoist Sansha also has extra jade tokens in their hands. They are not fools. In order to ensure their absolute advantage, they will definitely invite foreign aid."
"After all, our numbers are not as good as theirs. If we want to restore the decline, we can only rely on this ancestor Qingxu."
After hearing his words, Fairy Xiaguang nodded slightly, and her expression became much more relaxed:
"Fellow Daoist Haihe, you are right."
"Things have their own priorities. Our current top priority is to gain a certain advantage in the Jade Palace..."
She hasn't finished speaking yet:
An extremely powerful spiritual thought suddenly hit the Luoxia Sect's formation, causing the sky to glow with glow.
"The poor Daoist Li Qingxu came here to pay my respects!!"
A clear voice, along with the powerful spiritual thoughts, spread through the formation into the Luoxia Sect.
"he came!"
Ancestor Haihe stood up suddenly, showing a hint of joy and heaving a sigh of relief:
"...It's finally here."
Fairy Xiaguang also stood up, looking a little nervous, but still pretending to be calm and said:
"Fellow Daoist Haihe, let's go."
"Let's go meet this ancestor Qingxu."
"Um."
Ancestor Haihe responded, and immediately rode the escape light with Fairy Xiaguang, hurriedly left the valley and went outside the formation to greet them.
Soon, the two of them saw Zhang Yao standing alone with his hands behind his back on the sky outside the Luoxia Mountains.
"Qingxu!"
Ancestor Haihe stepped forward and bowed, showing a smile and emotion:
"Long years no see."
"Yes, it's been more than seventy years."
Zhang Yao also had a hint of sadness in his expression and looked him up and down.
There was almost no difference between the image of Patriarch Haihe and the image in his impression, but his aura was much deeper, exuding the rich magic power of the Golden Core realm.
The smile on his face did not diminish, and he said with emotion:
"After so many years, you have also achieved the golden elixir realm, which really makes me happy."
As he spoke, he paused, looked at Fairy Xiaguang aside, and said with a smile:
"Won't you introduce it to me?"
Hearing this, Patriarch Haihe quickly said:
"Oh, this is Fairy Xiaguang, the ancestor of the Golden Pill of Luoxia Sect."
"Since the Jade Incident five years ago, Fairy Xiaguang and I have been our closest allies, and we have joined forces to fight against the Tiansha Sect and the others."
As he spoke, he added:
"Without Fairy Xiaguang's help, I'm afraid I would have died in the hands of Taoist Sansha and the others."
"Fellow Daoist Haihe is so ridiculous. Thanks to your help, I was able to escape from the Jade Palace."
Fairy Xiaguang replied humbly, then Wanfu bowed and said:
"I have a glowing body, and I pay my respects to Patriarch Qingxu."
"Fairy is so polite, but Qingxu doesn't dare to take it seriously. Please get up quickly."
Zhang Yao held his hands up and returned the salute before speaking:
"As for the Jade Palace that fellow Taoist just mentioned, could it be the source of Fengxi orichalcum?"
"good."
Ancestor Haihe on the side nodded slightly, stretched out his hand and said:
"It's not convenient to talk here. Let's go in and talk."
Zhang Yao was naturally a guest and agreed readily.
Soon, the three of them returned to the deep valley. After the guests and hosts took their seats and served fragrant tea, Zhang Yao mentioned the matter again:
"The wind-breathing orichalcum mentioned in the letter from fellow Taoist friend Haihe really makes me dream about it."
Zhang Yao said in a joking tone:
"Fellow Taoist must also know that I am bound to win Fengxi Orichalcum."
"If fellow Taoists have any troubles, or if Fuhai Sect encounters any difficulties, please tell them too. If I can solve them, I will never refuse."
"As for the source of orichalcum in Fengxi, I also ask fellow Taoists to tell the truth, so as to avoid this poor Taoist's journey in vain."
After hearing his words, Fairy Xiaguang and Ancestor Haihe looked at each other and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It can be seen from these words that this Qingxu Patriarch is still a stickler for rules and is not the kind of domineering monk. They don't have to worry about attracting wolves into the house.
Next, I hope that the cooperation between the two parties can proceed smoothly and each can get what they need, which is naturally the best result.
"Here, I have to apologize to Qingxu first..."
After the ancestor Haihe bowed solemnly, his expression showed a trace of guilt:
"My previous actions were somewhat provocative. I hope you can forgive me."
"It doesn't matter."
Zhang Yao waved his hand and said:
"There is a saying in the world that it is difficult to know the heart when it comes to knowing the face of a person."
"Due to the situation, I concealed my secret deeply and found it difficult to reveal it. Later, I had no choice but to make such a big fuss."
At this point, he paused, with a hint of seriousness in his tone:
"But please believe, fellow Taoist, that the friendship you and I have had for many years is not fake, and I am not a cold-blooded person."
After hearing this, the thorn in the heart of Patriarch Haihe dissipated a lot without realizing it, and he laughed and said:
"Hearing you say that, I feel really much better."
After the two talked about it, the previous liveliness was gone, and they talked about each other's experiences over the years, with a lot of emotion.
Fairy Xiaguang on the side also remained silent and listened silently. It wasn't until the two of them had chatted to their heart's content that they finally got down to business.
"...Speaking of this so-called Emerald Change, the truth is actually very simple."
Master Haihe picked up the tea cup and took a sip before speaking:
"There is an emerald lake in the center of Dayu. It has been a scenic spot since ancient times. It also produces a rare spiritual material, emerald, and is also a popular destination for immortals."
"Because of the special geographical location of Emerald Lake, about two to three thousand years ago, the Jindan ancestors who dominated the world of immortal cultivation in Dayu formed the habit of discussing matters and resolving conflicts on Emerald Lake."
Zhang Yao nodded slightly when he heard this.
Similar rules actually exist in Dali. It is normal for the great Jindan forces in charge of the world of immortality in a country to have conflicts with each other, and they cannot always fight.
A large-scale all-out war like the Battle of the Five Sects is an outbreak of conflicts that can no longer be reconciled. In most cases, they can be discussed as long as they can.
"This kind of meeting happens every twenty years."
"And the last meeting was five years ago, and something unexpected happened..."
Ancestor Haihe said, with a hint of reminiscence in his expression:
"I remember that day very clearly. Several of us took the Luoxia Sect's spiritual weapon flying boat and went boating on the Emerald Lake to discuss the ownership of a spiritual stone vein."
"I didn't expect that in an instant, huge waves would roll up on the Emerald Lake, killing countless creatures in the lake."
"After a few people investigated, I discovered that an Emerald Temple appeared out of thin air in the depths of the Emerald Lake..."
"Emerald Palace?"
Zhang Yao frowned unconsciously when he heard this:
"With all due respect, this is too much of a coincidence!"
He has been cultivating all the way to this point, and he doesn't believe in random coincidences.
Often behind the seemingly coincidence, there are a series of complex reasons and long-hidden secrets.
So after hearing the news that the Emerald Palace suddenly appeared, he instinctively felt that this was not a coincidence, and there must be some kind of secret hidden behind it.
The typos have been corrected, and I’m currently adjusting it. I’m trying to update two chapters a day, with a total of 6,000 words, so keep up the good work.
