Chapter 244 Nether Calamity (for subscription)
Half a month later.
Dragon Fish Island.
Three escaping lights came together and landed in the Evergreen Pavilion.
Not long after, a cyan rainbow also flew over and landed on the top floor, revealing Fang Xi's figure.
He glanced at Liu Sanqi, Zhong Hongyu, and Ruan Xingling, and then smiled: "I was a little worried when I heard about the accident on Emerald Island, but now that the three have returned safely, I can finally let go of my heart." ..."
"Thanks to Liu Daoyou's help, otherwise I might not be able to support myself..."
Ruan Xingling gave a wry smile, and an abnormal flush suddenly appeared on her face.
"You are hurt?"
With a flash of blue light, Fang Xi came to Ruan Xingling's side, a blue-yellow halo erupted from the palm of one hand, and grabbed Ruan Xingling's bright wrist.
The healing secret technique recorded in the "Kurong Jue" is extraordinary. After only a moment of effort, Ruan Xingling opened his eyes and smiled slightly: "Thank you, Brother Fang, for your help. I am fine now..."
"That's weird..."
Fang Xi withdrew her palm, looked at Ruan Xingling, then at Zhong Hongyu: "This time at the ruins of the Emerald Island, Hongyu is fine, but you were seriously injured. I'm really surprised..."
Both Zhong Hongyu and Ruan Xingling practiced the same technique, but Ruan Xingling was already a mid-stage foundation-building monk, and the reputation of fighting skills shocked the country.
As a result, when the two went to Emerald Island at the same time, Ruan Xingling was seriously injured, while Zhong Hongyu seemed to be fine.
"Thanks to Sister Ruan protecting me on Emerald Island, I can be safe..."
Zhong Hongyu quickly explained.
At this time, Fang Xi realized that along with the Nether Earth Vein, there were many ghosts at the Qi refining and foundation building levels.
At that time, many monks were fighting independently, and the scene was extremely chaotic. Thanks to Ruan Xingling's protection, otherwise this woman might not have been able to escape.
"I see…"
Fang Xi nodded, feeling that Ruan Xingling seemed to regard Zhong Hongyu as a personal disciple.
"Actually...if it's just those ghosts, I'm sure I can get out of my body, and I won't be so seriously injured..."
After Ruan Xingling pondered for a while, she said something else: "When I was on Emerald Island, I felt a little strange when I saw the two Ancestors of Jiedan breaking the restriction... Later, it was almost certain that it was I fell into a certain scheme...it has nothing to do with a female cultivator present. That female cultivator definitely has a grudge against the Xuantian Sect, and she is practicing magic arts!"
Hate appeared on her face: "If I hadn't caught up with that woman and lost some vitality, I wouldn't have been besieged by ghosts and seriously injured..."
"oh?"
Fang Xi inquired carefully, only to find out that there was also a mysterious female Zhuji who appeared at that time, and it seemed that she was trying to sneak attack Zhang Patriarch of Xuantianzong.
Even though he didn't succeed, he escaped smoothly, and even made Patriarch Zhang fall into the predicament of being besieged by Jindan Ghost Cultivator. The method was very ingenious.
"The female demon's cultivation level is almost the same as mine, but her magic skills are quite powerful. Not only does she have a sense of attack, but she also has a body method, which is like a dream... When she escapes, she disappears without a trace!"
Ruan Xingling explained in detail: "I suspect that the female demon cultivator may possess the 'Phantom Spiritual Root'...otherwise it would be impossible to hide my consciousness with a fake body."
"Phantom spirit root?"
Liu Sanqi said: "I have heard of this kind of talent. It is said that those who have this spiritual root are very helpful for practicing illusion..."
'What kind of spiritual root is Situ Qingqing? '
Fang Xi recalled in his heart, and immediately shook his head, how did he know such a secret?
However, judging from the means of the female demon cultivator, it is indeed the 'Wuji Yuan Demon Art', and she has enmity with Xuantianzong. It is very likely that Situ Qingqing is the one.
Perhaps Ruan Xingling also discovered something, so she chased after this woman desperately, which caused her to be seriously injured instead.
After all, Ruan Xingling has a deep blood feud with Moxiu of Situ's family, and he will never die.
Fang Xi finally learned the details from Ruan Xingling and Zhong Hongyu.
This kind of first-hand information is much more accurate than the rumors of outside monks.
"The number of Jindan ghost cultivators on Emerald Island is actually more than three... Unless the four major alchemy forces unite, it will be difficult to deal with it..."
Fang Xi couldn't help murmuring after listening.
"Not only that, the core area has long been infested with ghostly ghost energy, even if there are any alchemy spirits, I'm afraid it has been polluted long ago..."
Ruan Xingling replied with a wry smile: "Without the temptation of alchemy spirits, it is impossible for Jindan Sect to take the risk of the ancestor's demise and start a war with ghost cultivators. Maybe they will give up our Wandao Lake and let the cultivators of Wandaohu live on their own. Destroyed..."
"A buffer zone? This is really possible..."
Fang Xi was thoughtful.
If it is a third-tier demon king, at least you can get the inner alchemy if you kill it, but most of the alchemy ghosts will turn into nothingness after death, which can be said to be an extreme loss.
In addition, the relics of the Nine-leaf Sect are no longer lucrative, and any choice should be made, as long as a rational cultivator can make a choice.
"It seems that Wandao Lake will suffer from ghost cultivators in the future..."
Fang Xi said: "Fortunately, the island's defense circle is strong enough, and it should be able to last for a while... If you are worried that your dojo is not safe enough, you can take refuge here..."
"Thank you, Island Master, for your kindness."
Liu Sanqi arched his hands, but replied with a wry smile: "I still want to go back to the Golden Turtle Island, where there is still the elixir I planted so hard, which cannot be transplanted easily..."
Ruan Xingling thought for a while, and finally answered in the same way.
"Since that's the case, I won't force it..."
Fang Xi heard the words, could only sigh, and let them go.
Cultivator Foundation Establishment is not a child, on the contrary, he is a famous character in the world of cultivating immortals. Now that he has said so, he must have certain confidence in dealing with ghost disasters.
…
The exploration boom of the ancient ruins on Emerald Island has finally come to an anticlimactic end.
Not only did a large number of well-known foundation-building monks fall, but even small Qi-refining cultivators who were greedy for cheap died a lot.
After discovering the difficulty of the Netherland Leyline and the Ghost Cultivator, various forces also made the decision to evacuate.
Bai Ze Xiancheng was the first to run!
Before leaving, Yuan Feihong specially came to visit Fang Xi.
The opponent at this time is already at the late stage of Foundation Establishment.
Fang Xi's 'Chong Yuan Pill' back then seemed to have really helped a lot.
After all the forces withdrew, Lingkongfang City became much more depressed at once. Fang Xi didn't even care about it. After taking away most of the spirit stones and supplies, he threw them directly to Yan Dongqing.
Calculating afterwards, through this "Emerald Island Ruins Fever", several of them have made a lot of money in building foundations, and the spiritual stones alone have piled up into hills, not counting all kinds of rare elixir, spiritual materials, and supernatural powers. Treasures, skills and secret techniques, etc...
It's just that the Wandao Lake ghost disaster that followed really caused the local cultivators a lot of trouble.
Ghost cultivators with alchemy levels do not leave Emerald Island, but like to drive some low-level ghosts out to collect living souls, and there are even examples of breaking through Spirit Island and slaughtering monks and mortals on the island.
These ghosts may wander in groups of three or four, or wander alone. Among them, there are even ghosts comparable to Foundation Establishment. Ordinary Qi Refining monks are no match. Only the second-level spirit island where Foundation Establishment monks sit is able to withstand it.
This also led to Wandao Lake, monks and mortals alike, concentrating on the four islands of Maple Leaf, Arowana, Golden Turtle, and Lingkong.
There are more monks and mortals who want to come to Longyu Island to avoid disaster. After all, Fang Xi is known as the "No. 1 monk in Wandao Lake", which is quite valuable.
Because they were just Qi-refinement cultivators and mortals, Fang Xi couldn't be too cold-blooded and ruthless, so she readily agreed to set aside a few areas for them to recuperate and recuperate.
Moreover, I have to suppress the demon tree every day, so as not to see so many blood eaters, I will instinctively count them all...
Even so, the entire Wandao Lake area became much more depressed, and Xuantianzong did not respond.
It seems that Patriarch Zhang really paid an extremely painful price in order to break out of the encirclement.
The large area of Wandao Lake was undoubtedly abandoned by Xuantianzong.
Longyu Island Wharf.
Many mortal ships docked, and many mortals came down from above to help the old and the young.
These mortals are the descendants of the monks of Wandao Lake. Now they encounter ghost disasters, and they don’t want to flee to Yujun County of Yue Country to become real mortals. They can only choose to live in Longyu Island with the monks who took refuge in Longyu Island. .
"finally reached…"
"Don't be afraid, there will be no ghosts on Longyu Island..."
"Hoo, daddy...I'm going to find daddy..."
…
Fang Xi hid her body and stood in the air, watching the refugees' various expressions, but also remained silent.
Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows and looked at the lake not far away.
There, a few flashes of spiritual light flashed, but it was the accompanying Qi Refining Cultivator, who was escorting with a magic weapon.
Not far away, there was a sudden gust of dark wind, and a ghost fog tens of feet long floated in, in which there seemed to be a large number of vague shadows that were fleeting.
"It's those ghosts, chasing them again!"
An old man who was driving a flying sword changed his face greatly: "I said that we should not transport so many people at once. If there are too many mortal blood and blood, it is easy to attract the attention of ghosts..."
"The family is also stingy, don't you know how to buy more 'Qi Containing Talismans'?"
A girl with almond eyes and peach cheeks was also a little out of breath.
"Alas... It's useless to talk at this time, but fortunately, among these ghosts, there are no second-order ones, so I will fight them!"
The old man controlled the flying sword, and the flying sword turned into a brilliant white streamer, piercing into the mist.
"Jie Jie!"
The next moment, there was a strange laughter coming from the mist, and the old man's face changed: "Not good...my magic weapon..."
"These ghosts are powerful, run away quickly, and notify the monks of Longyu Island to come to help!"
These monks fought and retreated, fleeing all the way to Longyu Island, and the slightly slower boat was entangled in gray fog, and there were screams immediately, and then there was a dead silence...
The ghostly fog was not satisfied, and drifted to Longyu Island Wharf again.
Right at this moment, within the Xuanmu formation, a black mist flashed and expanded suddenly, enveloping the ghost mist.
In an instant, the ghost fog disappeared without a trace.
Seeing this scene, the old man and the young girl couldn't help being stunned...
