Chapter 490 Channel

"There are nine continents in Xiaocang's boundary, Fenglinzhou is in the middle, Tupi, Daosheng, and Xituo are in the west, and Tianmo, Huangji, and Jingyuan are in the east."

"There is Beihai Continent in the north, and Zhongsheng Continent in the south."

"It has been isolated from the other eight continents for many years. People in the continent rarely go out. It is because of these..."

Rui Chunqiu pointed to the storm of black crows at the end of the horizon ahead.

Then he pointed to the map in his hand and drew a circle outside Zhoulu at the southernmost edge of the map:

"According to the monks who came from Zhongsheng Continent in the past, the sea area around Zhongsheng Continent is surrounded by Yuan Magnetic Storm that lasts for many years, which is called the 'Yuan Magnetic Sea'."

"The situation we just experienced is nothing compared to it. Perhaps it is for this reason that ordinary monks can hardly get in or out."

Taoist Yuanci, Xiang Sili and Qin Lingxiao were not disturbed when they heard the words and just continued to listen.

Everyone knew about the situation in Zhongshengzhou before they came here.

Even though Yuanci Taoists may not know it clearly, they have communicated with each other on the road.

They all knew that Rui Chunqiu must have other reasons for saying these words at this time.

Sure enough, Rui Chunqiu soon said with a solemn expression:

"The magnetic storm not only blocks but also protects Zhongshengzhou."

"If we want to enter this Zhongsheng Continent, the first thing we have to solve is the problem of the Yuanci Storm... But with Fellow Daoist Yuanci and Fellow Daoist Qin here, it is not a big problem."

"Fellow Daoist Rui, you'd better tell the key point directly."

Xiang Sili couldn't help but interrupt.

Rui Chunqiu was not angry when his speech was interrupted. He nodded and said:

"Fellow Dao Xiang, don't worry. The second point is that Zhongshengzhou has nothing to do with us, Fenglinzhou. We can't say whether their attitude towards us is good or bad. If they are all in harmony, then that's easy to say. I'm just afraid of conflicts. We have few people after all, so we'd better have a plan in advance to avoid being in a hurry."

Hearing this, both Taoist Yuanci and Qin Lingxiao's expressions froze slightly.

Xiang Sili smiled and said:

"What's there to worry about?"

"The soldiers are coming to cover up the water and the earth. Not to mention fellow Taoist Yuanci and fellow Taoist Qin, you and I are both Yuan Ying perfection monks. If we can't defeat them, why can't we still escape?"

"What's more, this Zhongsheng Continent is, after all, the border corner of Jiuzhou. I think the land on this map is pitifully small. It's at most half the size of Feng Linzhou. It has not communicated with the outside world and has been closed off for many years. If you want to come here, you can be like Feng Lin Continent." Those small countries in Asia are nothing to worry about.”

Hearing this, Rui Chunqiu somewhat agreed.

However, Taoist Yuanci then opened his mouth and said:

"It's not a bad thing to be more prepared. As Fellow Daoist Rui said, if the local monks here in Zhongsheng Continent are unwilling to help us, or are even hostile to us, what should we do?"

Although Xiang Sili didn't agree with Rui Chunqiu's words, he had a little more respect for Yuanci Taoist. He frowned and thought for a while and said:

"We have been delayed on the road for so long, and there is no room for delay. If they are unwilling to cooperate, I think we should fight if we can, so that they have to cooperate. At worst, we should make amends and apologize later. As for if we can't win, Let’s talk about it then.”

Upon hearing this, the three of them looked at each other and finally nodded.

"Then let's go, but I still say what I said, think about defeat before winning. If something cannot be done, let's retreat first and choose the opportunity to act."

Rui Chunqiu said finally.

The three of them all nodded in unison this time.

They found a nearby archipelago to rest and rest for a while, and then the Yuanci Taoist took the lead and carefully walked around the dark storm several times.

Taoist Yuanci's expression gradually became solemn.

"Fellow Yuanci, what's going on?"

Both Rui Chunqiu and Xiang Sili noticed the change in Taoist Yuanci's expression.

Qin Lingxiao, who had been silent, seemed to be aware of the situation in the magnetic storm at this moment, and frowned.

Taoist Yuanci didn't talk nonsense. He pointed to the huge storm in front of him and said in a deep voice:

"I don't know where the Yuan Magnet inside comes from. It seems to be a little different from the Yuan Magnet we encountered before. It has a lot of corrosive smell and is extremely difficult to refine."

"And in terms of intensity alone, although it is not as strong as those membrane eyes in the Yaehai Sea, it is still far better than the Yuanci Void Eyes we have encountered along the way. What's even more troublesome is that this Yuanmai Storm covers a very wide area. I don't think so. It takes a very long time to cross, and even if I walk alone, I will almost certainly be squeezed by the surrounding magnetism."

Taoist Yuanci's words immediately made the three people's expressions darken.

However, at this time, after experiencing so many hardships, no one would think of giving up.

Qin Lingxiao seemed to have thought of something at this time, glanced at Taoist Yuanci, and then said in a rare voice:

"Is there a special passage?"

Rui Chunqiu frowned and said:

"Those monks who came out of Zhongsheng Continent did not explain in detail how they entered and exited the Yuanci Storm. It is not clear whether there is such a passage, but since they can come out, and we have Fellow Yuanci and Daoist Qin here, there is no reason to enter. Don’t go.”

Xiang Sili simply flew closer, focused his eyes, and lit up his spiritual light, trying to see clearly through the black storm that blocked the sky and the sun.

However, Qin Lingxiao's words made Taoist Yuanci's heart move slightly.

"Everyone, wait a moment."

After saying that, he fell straight into the sea water.

The power of Yuan Magnet in the sea ripples with the sea water. Although it is extremely strong, it has no impact at all in front of Yuan Magnet Taoist.

Soon, the figure of the Yuanci Taoist could not be seen at all on the sea.

And affected by the power of Yuan Magnet, the spiritual consciousness is completely unable to penetrate into the sea water.

The three people in the air did not dare to neglect. While guarding their surroundings to prevent another vicious beast from attacking, they waited patiently.

In the past two years, the four of them have experienced many twists and turns on this boundless sea, and they have already become accustomed to this situation.

Not long after, Taoist Yuanci flew out calmly.

There was a hint of joy on his face:

"I found it. There is indeed a natural passage under this sea area that can be barely passed."

Rui Chunqiu and Xiang Sili suddenly became energetic.

Immediately, Qin Lingxiao, led by Taoist Yuanci, quickly sank into the sea.

There are some ferocious beasts in the sea, but perhaps because the power of the magnetism here is too strong, they just look at them from a distance, but they don't dare to get close at all.

Seeing this scene, Xiang Sili felt very happy:

"Finally we are going to Zhongshengzhou!"

Taoist Yuanci glanced at these ferocious beasts and frowned slightly, but considering that the situation here might be different from before, he didn't think much about it and swam straight to the depths of the seabed with the three of them.

The power of magnetism at the bottom of the sea is actually thinner than in the air.

Despite this, Qin Lingxiao, who had practiced the true method of Yuanci, could not help but cheer up.

Because she found that the power of the Yuan Magnetic here was indeed as the Yuan Magnetic Taoist said. It was more corrosive and even incompatible with her own Yuan Magnetic Mana. This was a situation she had never encountered before.

There was no time to think too much.

After swimming along the seabed for a while, they finally found a natural channel with countless currents running through it under the undulating seabed beneath the extremely fast waves.

Seeing this passage, Taoist Yuanci, Rui Chunqiu and Xiang Sili felt nothing, but Qin Lingxiao was stunned for a moment.

The picture in front of me seemed to overlap with the scene I had experienced in my memory.

"...Fellow Daoist Qin? Fellow Daoist Qin?"

Xiang Sili's voice suddenly woke up Qin Lingxiao.

"Uh, I'll come right away."

She was slightly flustered, and after speaking, she quickly followed him.

The turbulence in the passage is astonishing. If it hits the body, even a golden elixir monk may be injured if he is not careful.

It's just that three of the four people at the moment are Nascent Soul Perfection cultivators. Even if Qin Lingxiao is slightly weaker, he is still in the middle stage of Yuanying.

This turbulence cannot be shaken.

Of course, it is difficult to increase the speed at which they are traveling.

She followed at the back, perhaps because the Yuanci Taoists had pushed away the power of Yuanmai in front of her, and the turbulent flow reached her. The power of Yuanmai had been greatly reduced, and her pressure was immediately reduced a lot.

But not long after she walked, she suddenly saw a fierce light and a dull roar in front of the passage.

I was startled, and I was about to take action, but then I heard that familiar and peaceful voice:

"It's okay, let's keep walking."

The smelly blood was quickly taken away from her side by the torrent.

And the calmness and tranquility contained in that voice made Qin Lingxiao feel relieved.

Not long after walking forward, she saw a piece of remains of a ferocious beast hanging in the passage that she had not had time to clean up.

In the limbs, even if there is interference from the power of Yuan Magnetic, it is still not difficult to see that it has reached the fourth level of top grade, even the best grade.

But in the hands of Yuanci Taoist, it was just a fleeting light.

"His realm seems to have improved again."

Qin Lingxiao withdrew his gaze and continued to follow Xiang Sili in front of him, but he couldn't help but feel a familiar and deep sense of powerlessness in his heart.

In the past two years, all four of them have obviously experienced life and death, but only Yuanci Dao people seem to make progress every once in a while amid such twists and turns.

Although for this industry, the stronger the Taoist Yuanci is, the more beneficial it is to everyone, but seeing the gap getting wider and wider, she can't help but feel a trace of self-doubt in her heart:

"My great-great-grandfather said in the past that I was a rare genius of the Qin family for thousands of years, but I know that I am still far away from him, so I have never stopped practicing hard in these years... But why to this day, I can't even be his incarnation? Can’t compare?”

"Is the gap between us really that big?"

She didn't know, she only knew that the distance between the two seemed to be getting farther and farther...

Just thinking about it.

The Taoist Yuanci in front suddenly stopped.

Although Rui Chunqiu and Xiang Sili were protected by Taoist Yuanci, they still immediately displayed their magic weapons and asked urgently:

"Fellow Taoist, what's going on?"

Taoist Yuanci who was walking at the front frowned slightly and shook his head:

"It's okay, I sensed something wrong. Just keep walking."

Then he continued to move forward.

Feeling the strong soul power that suddenly emerged out of thin air in the Nascent Soul, I couldn't help but frown secretly in my heart.

"It seems that the power of incense gained from the main body is getting more and more... The difficulty of integrating the incarnation will probably increase."

"However, the improvement of the soul will also be of great benefit to me in controlling the power of magnetism. I benefited from this when I was practicing latent cultivation before."

He immediately stopped thinking about it, carefully felt the front, and walked deeper into the passage.

But he didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt inexplicably that the deeper he went, the more relaxed he felt.

It was as if the invisible weight pressing on him was quietly disappearing little by little.

And at the same time.

In the metamagnetic storm above the sea water that reaches the sky.

A white-haired young man with clothes and patterns that were quite alien was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed. The magnetic force around him was so strong that it almost condensed into substance.

With every breath, the magnetic force rose and fell like the tide.

Above his head, a gray divine light swallowed up the magnetic force around him bit by bit. Every time it swallowed up a bit, a part of the power full of corrosive taste was stripped out and gathered in front of him.

At this moment, he seemed to realize something and suddenly opened his eyes.

The gray divine light then fell into his fontanelle.

A cold and murderous look appeared on his face:

"An outsider broke in."

He lowered his head slowly, his eyes seemed to penetrate the surrounding magnetic storm and the sea water below...

But then, a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes:

"Four fourth-level mages...three of them are great mages."

There was a little more solemnity in his eyes, but there was no fear at all, but a hint of hesitation flashed across his eyes:

"Is it the foreign aid they invited?"

"Or did people from other continents accidentally break in here?"

"No matter, let's catch them all first."

The white-haired young man slowly stood up, then looked in the right direction and took a step out...

...

"Welcome to the God!"

The great elder of the Yinshen Vein, Sha Hui, knelt on the cold ground of the temple.

There was a hint of excitement in his respectful voice.

He was really about to cry.

It's not easy!

This God had disappeared for more than ten or twenty years. As the great elder, he had nothing to do all day, so that the Yin God Vein's already sparse population was now only a few cats and kittens.

In addition to managing the mortal population sent from other temples from time to time, there was nothing else to do.

There was no hope for cultivation. To be honest, if he had not been deeply bound by the Yin God Vein, he really didn't want to do it.

When the God appeared again, it seemed that he had no intention of instructing him, and asked directly:

"What happened during my absence?"

Although he had complained countless times, in front of the gods, Sha Hui did not dare to really neglect it. After a brief thought, he hurriedly said:

"Reply to God, in the twenty-one years since you were away, the number of Yuanying cultivators in Huangji Continent has really increased several times as you said. We, we have suffered several defeats in a row, and now we have all retreated to the southernmost part of Huangji Continent."

"Retreat to the south?"

In the statue, Wang Ba was a little surprised.

The divine consciousness quickly spread out, and indeed found that his temple had moved again.

"Yes, I don't know much, I just know that this is the Mother Goddess's intention."

Sha Hui explained hurriedly.

Wang Ba heard this and vaguely guessed something in his heart.

"It seems that the Mother Goddess' realm has been improved again..."

The temperaments of these evil gods will become more indifferent and rational as their cultivation level improves.

Just like the state of Bing Dao Ren.

Rational mind and calmness can produce wisdom.

After approaching rationality, the Mother Goddess made a decision that was in line with her understanding of the situation.

And Wang Ba almost saw the real purpose of this decision at a glance.

"On the one hand, fighting with the monks of Huangjizhou, showing weakness to the enemy, on the other hand, secretly accumulating strength... With the growth rate of the evil gods, it is indeed easier to become stronger than these monks of Huangjizhou. Time is on their side."

At this moment, he really wanted to find an opportunity to hunt these evil gods and slow down their growth.

However, he also knew very well that doing so would only alert the enemy and arouse the suspicion of the Mother Goddess.

Even if he wanted to hunt, he had to find a suitable opportunity.

However, these thoughts would naturally not be revealed, and he immediately asked:

"Are there any other things?"

Sha Hui thought about it hesitantly, and then hesitated:

"I don't know if this counts as a matter... The cities of Daqian were suddenly wiped out by one of the forces not long ago."

"Huh?"

Wang Ba was a little surprised: "Wipe out?"

Sha Hui nodded:

"Yes, all of them were taken under the command of that force. The name of that force seems to be 'Imperial Capital' or 'Great Sui'..."

"By the way, the leader seems to be called 'Yang Que'." (End of this chapter)
