Chapter 298 Resource Monopoly
In the prosperous era of the human race, the strength of the demon race was not weak. Relying on its special cultivation system and harsh environment, it was able to resist the fierce suppression of the human race. , and after the All Souls List appeared, as the human race gradually weakened and lost the suppression and restraint of the demon race, the scope of penetration into all walks of life became wider and wider.
Especially in chaotic places like the Abyss of Darkness, the demons have long been active in various areas. However, after the rise of powerful groups such as the monsters, spirits, and flames, they are also vigilant against the demons and secretly suppress them. This makes it difficult for the demons to have a clear gathering place like other ethnic groups. Of course, this is mainly because the demons don't like to stay outside. Go to the practice places of various ethnic groups to harass and plunder.
As for these space cracks, Yaozu and other ethnic groups basically don't care about them, because the space of the dark abyss is unstable, even if the seal eliminates the cracks, other ones will pop up after a while.
Since Shen Ping established the Zhenbao Pavilion, the Anjia caravan has been frequently harassed by demons, but the harassers are all demons at the Jindan Nascent Soul level, and sometimes there are demons in disguise. These things can only be solved by the guests in the pavilion. It could be solved, but he didn't take it to heart.
So after hearing An Zhiyuan's words, Shen Ping couldn't help showing a little surprise, "Why, could it be that the demons have increased their harassment in recent days?"
An Zhiyuan nodded, "Indeed, there has been an increase. Last time, there were demon cultivators at the refining level, and there were powerful demon cultivators to help. If it wasn't for a senior refining Xu from Jianyin City passing by, the caravan I'm afraid it will disappear completely."
"The senior suspects that the Demon Race may be eyeing the Zhenbao Pavilion, and the Demon Race has indeed become more active recently, so he made this proposal!"
Listen.
Shen Ping was stunned, but still puzzled and said: "The whereabouts of the demon monks have always been erratic. Apart from accompanying the caravan, I am afraid that it is difficult to have other ways to deal with it!"
Demon raids are like guerrilla attacks. They come here every now and then. Their main purpose is to plunder monks' flesh and soul, and they are especially fond of Nascent Soul.
An Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "This subordinate doesn't know."
Deal with the demon monks.
There is really no good way.
Even if you use special means to brand your whereabouts, you can only kill one or two, and it won't take long for others to reappear, and sometimes you will even encounter a magic cultivator in disguise, which is even more cunning.
In the past, the biggest headache for their Anjia caravan was facing the demon cultivators. They had no choice but to rely on formations and treasures to resist. The only fortunate thing was that there were not many space cracks on the Graystone City side, and the strength of the demon cultivators was not too strong. powerful.
But Jianyin City is different. The location of this comprehension city is no longer on the edge of the Black Mist Jedi, but in the hinterland of the West District.
If it weren't for the joint suppression of the demon race, the human race and the spirit race, the demon race would have been flooded.
thought about it.
Shen Ping decided to go to Jianyin City.
In any case, the caravan is the most important thing in the development of Zhenbao Pavilion at present. Like the Zhenbao Pavilion from all over the world, the reason why it can control every area depends on the powerful caravan resource transportation and the foundation of extremely fast transmission. .
It takes less than two or three months to go back and forth from Huishi City to Heisha Valley and then to other remote square cities or gathering places, so Zhenbao Pavilion can quickly develop branch pavilions, but the distance from Jianyin City to Huishi City is relatively far up.
Even if you use the top-grade airship magic weapon to travel, it will take more than two months to go back and forth.
If you really don’t care about it and let the demon monks plunder and wreak havoc, then Zhenbao Pavilion will not be able to gain a firm foothold in Jianyin City, and there will be no way to develop intelligence and control various information.
This is related to my own life.
Shen Ping was naturally serious.
So the next day, he set off for Jianyin City, and this trip was also with the caravan.
On the deck of a large airship.
The gangster wind whizzed and blew on the edge of the spaceship, oscillating the fluorescence.
Looking at the scenery passing by on both sides.
Shen Ping's eyes were calm, but his spiritual consciousness was communicating with Master Lian Xuejin.
"Disciple."
"The interests of the monks are the most important. You must be extra vigilant when you go to Jianyin City this time. Although the human race is gradually declining, it does not mean that the monks of the human race will work together..."
"Master, this disciple understands."
He knew what Master meant.
The purpose of those human seniors in Jianyin City may not be to deal with the harassment of demon cultivators, maybe they just want to meet him for this reason. After all, Zhenbao Pavilion is now quite famous in Jianyin City, not to mention being able to attack Not everyone can kill Shihu at the refining level.
One month later.
The caravan members on the flying boat were visibly nervous.
See here.
An Zhiyuan explained: "In front is Wanku Mountain. Mozu monks often harass this area. It is said that there are several space cracks in the depths of Wanku Mountain. There are sect-fit seniors from Jianyin City who went to investigate, but found nothing. ..."
"The Void Refiner who met the Demon Race last time was also here."
...
Boom!
I was thinking about it.
The airship suddenly shook violently.
An Zhiyuan's face changed, and his mana condensed voice swayed: "Magic Attack! Magical Attack!"
Whoosh, whoosh.
Hundreds of members of the caravan flashed around the deck in unison, their mana surged, and the formation of the entire flying boat suddenly glowed.
Boom!
At this time, a dozen or so flame-like black energy **** from the mountains not far away bombarded the flying boat, and the fluorescent light shook out layers of ripples, and the flying boat also began to shake.
An Zhiyuan hurriedly said: "Pavilion Master, this is a tentative attack from a demon cultivator. If the flying boats can't even bear this, they will rush over in a swarm. If they can bear it, they will send out strong men to harass them. If you lose, you will flee immediately!"
Shen Ping squinted his eyes and looked at the depths of the mountain range. His consciousness quickly swept out and easily extended to the surface of the mountain range. He saw that the surface was as bare as if it had been burned by fire, and there were densely packed caves on the surface. Those black energy **** were blasted from the caves. from.
As soon as his spiritual consciousness was about to infiltrate along a black cave, he immediately frowned, and his spiritual consciousness was impregnated by a dark and evil energy.
This kind of energy is like tarsal maggots. After being infected, it is not only difficult to eliminate instantly, but also feels that the consciousness is being swallowed and digested, which is very uncomfortable.
He hurriedly withdrew it, and then circulated the dark golden strange beast power in his dantian to quickly eliminate the remaining dark energy.
Bang bang bang!
The flying boat was constantly attacked, and it lasted for half a cup of tea.
At the mountain range, two powerful monks with soaring demonic aura attacked from the left and right sides.
"It's a demon cultivator at the level of transforming gods!"
"Start the big array!"
An Zhiyuan's voice vibrated.
The caravan has long been experienced in dealing with the attacks of demon monks. With the infusion of mana and a large number of spiritual powers, the spiritual lines carved on the edge of the flying boat are constantly flickering. Quickly enveloped the entire flying boat.
"Pavilion Master, these cultivators of the Deity Transformation Demon Race usually only attack for a cup of tea, and the formation of the flying boat can definitely hold it!"
Shen Ping couldn't help asking: "Why?"
An Zhiyuan replied: "The caravan that can withstand the attacks of the monks of the Huashen Demon Race has a strong background. Even if they break through the formation defense in the end, they will have to consume a lot of energy. Then they will fight with the caravan members and consume a lot of energy." More, it's not worth the candle for them, of course most of the time..."
While the two were talking.
Demon monks increased their attacks.
Compared to the Human Race and Spirit Race, Yan Race, Yu Race and other ethnic groups.
The demons usually use their powerful bodies to attack. In this regard, they are similar to the monsters, but the monsters can also display their innate supernatural powers and use magic weapons, etc., but the demons believe in their own blood and body.
Time passed by little by little.
Shen Ping stood on the deck and watched quietly. Sure enough, as soon as the cup of tea arrived, the two deities and demons saw that it was difficult to break through the defense of the flying boat, so they turned around and prepared to leave.
However, at this time.
A beast-shaped puppet rushed out of the formation, leaped to one of the demons at lightning speed, and stomped heavily with its hooves and claws.
The demon clan rushed forward without even thinking about it.
Boom!
Huge strength directly penetrated the body of the demon, and the energy containing the might of a strange beast quickly tore apart the demon.
Although the demon race is stronger than the demon race and the human race, but facing puppets of more than six ranks, one of the masks was seriously injured and fell. The other demon race was shocked when he saw this scene, and then directly burned his blood and blood. The beast-shaped puppets fought.
at the same time.
The black energy ball from the mountain cave blasted out again, and the target was a beast-shaped puppet.
It's a pity that they don't know the horror of beast puppets at all.
Just a few breaths.
The two deities and demons were completely killed.
"The recovery ability of the demons is extremely strong, but no matter how strong it is, it will take time..."
Shen Ping put away the two demon corpses and said calmly.
An Zhiyuan beside him glanced at the beast-shaped puppet enviously, and hurriedly nodded and said: "The pavilion master is right!"
"Let's go!"
soon.
The flying boat flashed its light, passing Wanku Mountain and heading towards Jianyin City.
The caves in Wanku Mountain are very deep and extend in all directions. In the situation where it is difficult for the spiritual consciousness to penetrate and explore, it is more dangerous to go deep rashly.
A few days later.
Jianyin City has arrived.
Standing on the flying boat and looking from a distance, the Sword Seal City looks like a thick Sword Seal Canyon, with steep peaks on both sides surrounding the city and spreading towards the depths. City, Lanhai Xiancheng and other places, the scale of Jianyin City is much smaller, but it is still the number one cultivation city near the edge of the black mist.
There is a large formation of forbidden air near the city.
The flying boat stopped early.
The caravan marched along the wide stone road built towards the tall city gate.
Along the way, you can see all kinds of creatures of various races coming and going in and out of the city gate in an endless stream. Some monsters even walk with their own bodies, and there are wood people, etc., but their bodies are deliberately shrunk, and they are slightly larger than humans. .
"Before the appearance of the All Souls List, although there were ethnic groups, the relatively vague Jianyin City was mainly dominated by sects and family forces, and other ethnic groups were also attached to the sects and families, but the All Souls List Later, the separation between ethnic groups became more and more obvious, but monks are different in strength after all. Although the human race is lonely, the sects and families in Jianyin City are still very strong. At present, only the monster race and the spirit race can compete with it ..."
Listening to An Zhiyuan's introduction, Shen Ping couldn't help but said: "The seniors in Jianyin City are not weak, if you take care of Huishi City and other places, it shouldn't be difficult, right?"
He meant that if an incarnate monk like An Zhiyuan joined the sect or relied on the protection of the family vassal, he would not struggle to survive among the various clans.
An Zhiyuan sighed helplessly, "This was indeed the case in the early years, but in the past few thousand years, the sects and families near Jianyin City have continued to shrink in power, the reason is that the lifespan of some combined seniors is short, and the monsters The Spirit Race and the Spirit Race are becoming more and more powerful, and they are looking for a fit for the seniors to fight against each other on the grounds of learning from each other."
"As long as you fight, it will more or less affect your own foundation. Once you are seriously injured, your lifespan will be lost, so gradually the seniors of the fusion are almost closed and will not show up easily. The Jing family in Graystone City is actually a vassal. The Yun family in Jianyin City, but you have also seen it, Pavilion Master, the Jing family was wiped out by the Shihu clan, and the Yun family did not come out!"
Shen Ping was silent.
It is obvious that the sects and family forces in Jianyin City are protecting themselves wisely, because everyone knows that the strength of Yaozu, Lingzu, Yanzu, Yuzu and other ethnic groups is improving. In this case, only self-protection is the best good way.
Not long.
The caravan entered the branch station of Zhenbao Pavilion.
The resident is not big.
After all, this is Jianyin City, and it can be said that every inch of land is precious. Even the nearby sects and families have difficulty occupying much land in the city.
"Master, please take a rest for now, I will contact that senior right away!"
It was evening.
An Zhiyuan came back, he cupped his hands and said: "That senior will come to my Zhenbao Pavilion in person in the future."
"good."
the next day.
Shen Ping did not meditate in the branch shop, but wandered around with An Zhiyuan. There are only three main streets in the entire Jianyin City, and there are many shops on both sides of the street. The whole is no different from the comprehension city from all over the world. There are many types of styles, like the shop of the monks of the flower family, it is completely a flower.
Except shops.
Chunlou Songfang and so on are also available.
But neither Shen Ping nor An Zhiyuan were interested. The shops they visited were mainly Dan Pavilion, utensil shops and other places that sold items and resources.
Just walked around a few times.
Did not see any good item materials.
"Pavilion Master, generally all the materials sold are below the sixth level, and those of the sixth level and above can only be found in auctions... The same is true for our Zhenbao Pavilion in Jianyin City."
Shen Ping knew that this was a resource monopoly.
The same is true in Wuzhou Sihai. If a cultivator wants to improve, he can only go to Zhongshengzhou. Here, a cultivator can only obtain resources to improve his practice at the auction.
Stroll until noon.
Shen Ping no longer had any interest, and began to meditate after returning to Zhenbao Pavilion.
