Chapter 644 Taiping Fortress, Sea-Covering Demonic Dragon

As the vehicle of the successive masters of Baizao Mountain, the Liuyu Feiyun Chariot is not only luxurious and majestic on the surface.

It also has many functions.

Flying is the most basic and most prominent function.

It has also made achievements in both offense and defense, but it requires a large number of people to control it to show its power, which is embarrassing for Luo Chen.

However, another "monitoring" function on this gorgeous cloud chariot is very suitable at this moment.

Relying on the water mirror and jade chime, Luo Chen learned a lot of secrets from the three people on his way.

They all came from Zhongzhou.

Although they called each other brothers and sisters, they did not come from the same teacher, but from three families.

Liu, Wu, Guan.

According to them, the newly rising Longyuan Zhenren of the Wanxian Society was not a casual cultivator without a foothold, but from the Zhongzhou Liu family where Changfengzi was.

The reason why the three of them traveled thousands of miles from Zhongzhou to Beihai was to emulate the immortal Long Yuan and obtain the qualification of a nine-star monster hunter in the Wanxian Conference, so as to obtain the resources for forming infants.

Except for Chang Fengzi who was a little worried, the other two were full of confidence, as if the nine-star monster hunter was easy to catch.

In their words, they were full of arrogance, as if Beihai was a remote and poor place.

Luo Chen didn't know where their confidence came from. Although Zhongzhou was a place with outstanding people, Beihai was also known for its rich resources and many strong people. Where did the sense of superiority come from?

Luo Chen no longer paid much attention to this.

The rest of the time on the road was devoted to adjusting his own state.

Although this trip was just for testing the sword, and the enemies to be faced were only monsters, he could not take it lightly.

Any enemy should be taken seriously!

Otherwise, it would be easy to capsize in the gutter.

Besides, these monsters are not ignorant fools. They are all powerful monsters who participated in the battle to destroy the Yuan Mo Sect in the Holy Land of Huasheng and survived!

…

The Yunchariot moved forward, passing through the Huanyang Sea, the Quyang Sea, and finally arrived at the first line of defense, the Liuyang Sea.

In front of a huge boulder fortress, the Liuyu Feiyun Chariot slowly landed.

Luo Chen looked at the surging crowd outside the fortress through the water mirror and sensed a solemn and restless atmosphere.

As soon as he landed, a foundation-building cultivator came up to greet him.

"Junior Zeng Xiong, meet the four seniors!"

Luo Chen put away the Yunchariot and waved his sleeves forward.

"Take us to see Fellow Daoist Shentu, the person in charge here!"

As he spoke, he showed his brand new five-star monster hunter waist badge.

When seeing the star rating of the waist badge, Chang Fengzi and the other two had different expressions.

Chang Fengzi was a little confused. He thought that Qing Yangzi, who had a Taoist name, was very powerful, but why was his star level of the demon hunter only level five?

Wu Tao and Guan Xiaoping looked at each other, and then curled their lips slightly.

In their opinion, in the Ten Thousand Immortals Association, the strength of the cultivators was linked to the star level of the demon hunter.

If it was less than the seven-star level, it was not very good, just an ordinary casual cultivator.

Senior Brother Chang Fengzi had asked them to respect Luo Chen before, but it seemed unnecessary at this moment.

After checking Luo Chen's waist badge, Zeng Xiong's eyes fell on the three people behind him.

"In order to prevent the enemies of the demon clan who are proficient in the art of illusion from sneaking into the Taiping Fortress, any newcomers who come here must show their identity tokens. Please forgive me, three seniors."

Luo Chen turned around and looked at the three people, signaling them to cooperate a little.

Chang Fengzi hummed, showed his waist pendant, and injected mana into it to activate it, proving that he was holding it.

Three white stars flickered slightly.

Wu Tao and Guan Xiaoping also followed suit, but when the three stars flashed, their faces looked a little unnatural.

Perhaps in their eyes, such a low star rating was a bit embarrassing!

Especially under Luo Chen's gaze.

Luo Chen didn't feel anything, it was just a reform of the Wanxian Association, otherwise anyone who joined the Monster Hunting Division would have to start from one star and slowly rise.

Three stars, in fact, is quite good.

The guard monk Zeng Xiong's eyes lit up when he saw this.

Now that four more Jindan masters have arrived, the pressure of clearing out the sinking sea monsters must be greatly reduced.

"Four seniors, please come this way!"

Luo Chen nodded and strode forward.

The three people behind followed closely behind, looking at the scenery of the fortress.

Luo Chen did the same, and from time to time he asked Zeng Xiong about the situation of the Taiping Fortress.

"I see this fortress, it's covered in blood and filled with evil spirits, why is the name so peaceful?"

"The word Taiping was coined by me, Feng Sanren of the Wanxian Society, when I woke up. It means that this place can resist the invasion of the demons and keep the human race in the rear safe."

"How many people are stationed here?"

"I don't know the details, but normally there are at least 3,000 people stationed here! Recently, Xue Sanren issued an order, and the number of cultivators has increased several times, with tens of thousands of cultivators coming and going. However, most of them went to the Sinking Sea. There are not many left here."

"There are three Jindan monks stationed in the two major lines of defense at the back. How about this side?"

"There are also three, but Lord Dao Lan is an exception. He borrows the monster tribe to sharpen his sword and stays here all year round, so there are four people."

"How many Jindan monks have come here recently?"

"The exact number is not very accurate. Some seniors went back early after completing the monster hunting mission. But as far as I know, there should be about 40 to 50 people."

"So many? Half of the Jindan monks of Wanxianhui."

"That's not the case. There aren't that many Jindan-stage seniors who are from the Wanxian Association. Some of them were sent by the three families of Wuzhong Valley."

Luo Chen nodded thoughtfully.

The Wanxian Association has nearly a hundred Jindan cultivators, including many pseudo-Dan cultivators, but the strong men from Wuzhong Valley, Tianqu Chen Family, and Coral Sea Zhou Family are not included.

The Jindan masters of the three families usually practice on their own territories, and only cooperate with the Wanxian Association in battles.

When he arrived at the gate of the fortress, Luo Chen looked up at the blood-colored fortress that seemed to be cast in steel, and his eyes fell on the square openings in the middle.

"Hey, why are there these holes in the middle of the city wall?"

It's no wonder that Luo Chen is curious. He has seen many immortal cities in his life. In order to ensure the integrity of the formation, except for the necessary four-sided gates, they are basically all solid walls with few openings.

This Taiping Fortress is so well-behaved, isn't it afraid that the formation will be broken and forcibly defeated?

Zeng Xiong immediately explained: "These holes are reserved for the Tianyuan Spiritual Energy Cannon. Once the number of monsters is too large and endangers the fortress, the spiritual energy cannon will be activated to carry out a large-scale coverage attack."

"Tianyuan Spiritual Energy Cannon?" Luo Chen was surprised. He had heard of the spiritual energy cannon, which was taken out by Tianfan City on the Tianguyuan battlefield. But why did the spiritual energy cannon on the Taiping Fortress have a name, and the name is so sensitive.

Zeng Xiong's answer confirmed Luo Chen's guess.

"This Tianyuan Spiritual Energy Cannon was purchased in bulk by my Wanxian Association from the Tianyuan Business Alliance. It is said that it is a powerful magic weapon developed by the Tianyuan Dao Sect in Zhongzhou. Seventy years ago, when the beast tide was the most serious, it was used. At that time, thousands of cannons fired at the same time, and the power was almost as powerful as the full-strength attack of the Yuanying Zhenren. It was really terrifying!"

When he said this, Zeng Xiong praised again and again.

Luo Chen also praised it, but when he saw the three people behind him who seemed to be proud of it, he raised his eyebrows.

With such an attitude, could it be that they are from the Tianyuan Dao Sect?

Or, are they related?

Luo Chen's speculation did not last long, and he soon entered the Taiping Fortress and met the person in charge of this place.

Shen Tu, the eighth level of the Golden Core, is one of the few seven-star demon hunters in the Wanxian Association.

He was dressed in ordinary clothes, with a golden face, which contrasted with Luo Chen's red face.

When he met Luo Chen, Shen Tu was very enthusiastic.

Luo Chen would not put on the airs of a master of casting, and communicated with the other party enthusiastically.

After a brief conversation, he explained his purpose.

"Are you going to the Sinking Sea?" Shen Tu nodded as if he understood. "Recently, most of the fellow Taoists who came here are going there. It's easy for you to go there. However, there is one thing I need to explain in advance."

"Well, please go ahead, Fellow Taoist Shen."

"Actually, it's the rule when you joined the Monster Hunting Division in the early years. Unless you use the monsters hunted on the battlefield for your own use, you must sell them to the Monster Hunting Division."

Luo Chen was not surprised, "Okay."

Shen Tu looked at the other three people, "Are you going to the Sinking Sea battlefield too?"

Shen Tu and Luo Chen had a very pleasant chat before, and he was a little cold to Chang Fengzi and the other two, which had already made two of the young men dissatisfied.

Wu Tao snorted, "Of course, otherwise why would we come all the way here!"

Guan Xiaoping couldn't wait to say, "We've seen the person and verified his identity. Is everything okay? It's okay, we'll just leave."

Chang Fengzi moved his lips, wanting to say something, but finally just nodded.

Shen Tu's face was normal, and he was not angry because of the dissatisfaction in the two people's tone. He just waved to Zeng Xiong outside the door, gave a few instructions, and asked Zeng Xiong to take the three people to the battlefield of the Sinking Sea.

The hall became deserted because of the departure of the three people.

But the atmosphere of Luo Shen and the others' chat was still as warm as before.

"This is a bottle of elixir I made in my spare time. The quality is pretty good. Since we first met, I will give it to you as a small gift."

Shen Tu was a little surprised, as if he was a little surprised by the "worldliness" of Master Qingyangzi, who was rumored to be aloof and indifferent to worldly affairs.

He took the jade bottle and smelled the rich elixir fragrance in it, and his eyes widened slightly.

"Third-level middle-grade elixir! I didn't expect that Master Qingyangzi, who was famous for casting instruments in the Ten Thousand Immortals Association, was also a powerful alchemist!"

Luo Chen smiled slightly, "Alchemy and refining instruments have some common points, but they are only done occasionally, and they don't deserve such praise from fellow Taoists."

Shen Tu put away the medicine bottle and his face became serious.

"I won't accept gifts from you for nothing. If you have any needs, just speak up."

Straightforward person!

Luo Chen didn't waste words.

"The battle in the Sinking Sea has lasted for two or three years, consuming a lot of manpower and material resources of the Ten Thousand Immortals Association, but the monsters in it are still being eliminated. I need to know the reason."

"In addition, Luo also wants to know the distribution of monsters there, as well as some methods of powerful monster kings."

Shen Tu frowned when he heard this, and then nodded slowly.

"This matter is simple."

...

The next day, Luo Chen, who had rested for a while, drove the escape light alone to the northwest.

The information Shen Tu had said before echoed in his mind.

"The Great Demon Sealing Formation of the Arctic Night Sky originally had two layers. One layer was set up by the Soul Refining lineage of the Yuan Demon Sect before his death, and the other layer was set up later by the newly promoted great power Li Canghai of the North Sea. The former restrains the strong men of the fourth level and above from escaping, and it is still in effect today. But the latter was mostly cracked thirty years ago."

"Therefore, the number of low-level monsters that have escaped in the past thirty years has increased."

"Originally, after they escaped, we were very worried. But later we observed that they were hoarding in the abandoned city of Taohai and did not attack the Sanyang defense line. It was not until recently that we discovered that they were not sitting still, but moved to the side of the sinking sea."

"There are constant monsters escaping from the Arctic Night Sky, which is the main reason for the endless fighting in the sinking sea."

After Luo Chen learned of this information, he did not doubt its authenticity.

As early as when he was on a garrison mission at the Quyang defense line, he had heard related news.

Now combined, it echoes the beginning and the end.

The only thing that worries Luo Chen is probably how many monsters are sealed in the Arctic Night Sky!

More than a hundred years ago, the demon clan claimed to have gathered hundreds of millions of troops to attack the Yuan Demon Sect.

That battle directly destroyed the Yuan Demon Sect!

The Yuan Demon Sect has three great ancestors who have reached the state of transformation. Except for the Blood Sea Ancestor who was not in the sect at that time, the Soul Refining Ancestor used his remaining body to form a formation, combined with the geographical advantages, to isolate the inside and the outside, and the Yuan Demon Ancestor's life and death is unknown.

Except for the great power of transformation, all other disciples in the Yuan Demon Sect, except for a few who were running outside, all died inside the sect.

This battle sounds horrifying, and the demon clan has achieved many results.

But the Yuan Demon Sect is not a soft persimmon. The top sect famous for its magic way will surely explode with earth-shaking power when it counterattacks before death.

In that battle, how many of the hundreds of millions of demons can survive?

If there are not many of them, even if the two seal formations in the North Pole are broken after thousands of years, the powerful monsters who escaped should not have much impact on the human race.

If so, then Luo Chen can continue to practice in Wanxianhui with peace of mind.

But if the Yuanmo Sect did not take away many monsters before it was destroyed, then Luo Chen would have to consider changing his practice.

"It's too far away, maybe I'm worrying too much."

Luo Chen shook his head, and the escape light stopped on a lonely peak.

Looking up, the vast sea seemed to be drawn by a long winding line.

The two sides of the long line were clearly divided.

One was blue, and the other was dark.

"Is that the sinking sea?"

Luo Chen looked at the dark sea, took a deep breath, and then took out a piece of animal skin drawing from the storage ring.

It was a simple distribution map of the soldiers of the sinking sea monsters sent by Shentu before leaving.

There are densely packed stars on it, and dozens of places are specially marked with red dots.

These red dots are all powerful third-level demon kings!

Luo Chen's consciousness probed into it, and soon the corresponding information came into his mind.

Suddenly.

Luo Chen's consciousness stopped and landed on a red dot.

[The Sea-covering Demonic Dragon, a third-level late-stage great demon king, is good at controlling water, and the single horn on his head can release magic attacks. It has a strong restraint on fire-attributed cultivators. Once encountered, if you are not in the late Jindan realm, it is recommended to escape. ]

"That's it!"

Luo Chen's eyes lit up slightly, and a trace of fighting spirit permeated from him.

This will be a good opponent for sword testing!
