Chapter 514: Magnetic Riot
Under the gloomy sky.
The dark sea water was breaking the shore, the waves were rolling, and the roar of the waves resounded through the world.
The sea barrier that reached the sky stretched across the north and south, like a hundred rivers competing for the flow, and it was almost impossible to see the end at a glance.
The Yuanci Taoist stood in the air, overlooking the sea below, with a solemn expression.
"The situation here in the Eightfold Sea has deteriorated a lot compared to three years ago."
Beside him, Qu Shentong, An Changshou, Xiong Zhaojing, and Qin Shengyong stood still, also looking down with extremely solemn expressions.
Although they have been paying attention to the situation of the Eightfold Sea in the West Sea Kingdom, they only learned about it from the reports of the people below and did not come in person.
Although they knew that the situation was extremely bad, now they saw it with their own eyes, they knew how serious the disaster of Yuanci had become.
Except for the core area of the Eightfold Sea, the entire West Sea Kingdom has become barren.
The spiritual energy is declining, and although there are living creatures, they are all mortals and beasts.
Such an environment has little impact on these mortals and beasts, but for cultivators, this place is a forbidden zone.
Only the highly condensed mana in the body of the Nascent Soul cultivator can barely maintain its own actions in such an environment.
If it were a Golden Core or Foundation Building cultivator, it would not take long for the realm to fall and the mana to disappear.
Even so, if a Nascent Soul cultivator stays here for a long time, there is a danger of falling in realm.
"Fellow Daoist Yuanci, we are all familiar with the magic formula you passed on to us before. Please tell us how to use it to solve the disaster of Yuanci here."
An Changshou, the elder of Changsheng Sect, looks like a gentle and elegant young cultivator. He does not seem to have the sharp temperament of a sword cultivator. At this time, he glanced at Qu Shentong and then spoke to Yuanci Taoist.
Taoist Yuanci pondered for a moment, then said:
"The scope and depth of the disaster of Yuanci are not a one-day event. It will not be a one-day event to completely eradicate it. This is the premise."
An Changshou, Qu Shentong, Xiong Zhaojing, and Qin Shengyong looked at each other, then nodded slightly:
"I understand what Taoist Yuanci said. I will not rush for success, but will only take steady steps."
Taoist Yuanci nodded and said:
"The real membrane eye of Yuanci is the root, and the raging outside is the surface. If you want to eliminate the disaster, you must first treat the root. But once the root is eliminated, the outer Yuanci will also collapse and spread everywhere. If such a huge amount of Yuanci power is not controlled, it will definitely cause disaster to most of Fenglinzhou, not just Xihai Kingdom."
Hearing this, several people couldn't help but look a little stern.
Xiong Zhaojing couldn't hold back and asked in a low voice:
"We came here to stop the spread of Yuanci to Dajin. In this way, won't it make it worse?"
An Changshou and Qin Shengyong were also quite solemn.
Only Qu Shentong was calm.
An Changshou glanced at Qu Shentong, and his face suddenly changed from worry to joy:
"Since Taoist Yuanci said so, I guess you have found a way?"
Hearing this, Xiong Zhaojing and Qin Shengyong couldn't help but look happy.
Taoist Yuanci looked calm and didn't keep anyone in suspense. He said truthfully:
"The way I can think of is to eat away at it step by step. Some people use the Eightfold Sea as the core to block the flow of Yuanci power and trap Yuanci here. Some people clear the periphery. After the clearing is completed, they will work together to form a formation and advance, gradually dividing it until the membrane eye is locked and finally sealed in one fell swoop."
Several people looked at each other and nodded.
This method is not difficult to understand. Although it is not very sophisticated, it is safe.
"You can give it a try."
An Changshou pondered for a while, then glanced at the sea barrier in the distance with a solemn expression, and said in a deep voice:
"My Changsheng Sect cultivators will guard around the Eightfold Sea and cut off the outflow of the Yuan magnetic force."
Hearing An Changshou's decision, the other three were a little surprised.
Qu Shentong frowned and said:
"The Eightfold Sea Yuan magnetic force is rampant, and it is difficult to survive. Brother An Dao is generous and righteous, but we can't take it for granted..."
He pondered and said:
"My sect is willing to allocate 300 people to assist Brother An Dao in guarding together."
"Three hundred?"
Although Qu Shentong had agreed to fill the vacancy before, the three sects and one clan knew each other very well, and everyone knew more or less about the situation of the Wanxiang Sect.
Besides, the Wanxiang Sect disciples who came together only had more than a hundred people in total.
Hearing that Qu Shentong was going to assign 300 monks to guard this place, everyone was surprised and curious.
However, Qu Shentong seemed to have not noticed the curiosity in everyone's eyes at all. He calmly said to the Wanxiang Sect monk standing not far behind:
"Palace Master Lin, you will take your disciples to clear the periphery later. Well, you will be responsible for the east and south of the Eightfold Sea."
A red-robed monk bowed and saluted immediately after hearing this:
"Lin Yi obeys the order."
Seeing that Qu Shentong had arranged his own affairs in a few words, and the direction of clearing was still a slightly dangerous area on the sea, he showed his responsibility.
Although Xiong Zhaojing and Qin Shengyong were curious about where the extra 300 monks of the Wanxiang Sect were, they also spoke out:
"Brother An Dao and Brother Qu Dao are so righteous, how can we fall behind? The West Sea Kingdom and the northern part of the Eightfold Sea will be handed over to our two families."
In this way, the three sects and one clan are basically arranged.
An Changshou then looked at the Taoist Yuanci and said politely:
"Only Taoist Yuanci is well versed in the way of Yuanci here. Please coordinate and dispatch in time."
Taoist Yuanci smiled and nodded:
"This is what should be done."
After speaking, he pointed out the key points to each of the four people.
"Where Yuanci is rampant, Lingxi Stone is also affected by it. It is quite inconvenient to communicate with each other. It is best for you to meet up regularly and summarize the specific situation..."
Taoist Yuanci reminded.
The four people pondered for a while and then agreed on a time together.
The Taoist Yuanci then said:
"I want to explore the core of the Eightfold Sea again. You must be careful. If you feel tired, escape from here immediately to prevent any changes and be caught off guard."
The four people nodded.
Soon.
The Taoist Yuanci flew directly into the depths of the Yuanci Sea.
Qu Shentong, An Changshou and others looked at each other.
Xiong Zhaojing and Qin Shengyong then led the cultivators of Youxian Temple and Qin's family, some flew to the north, and some quickly flew to the West Sea Kingdom.
An Changshou also summoned the cultivators of Changsheng Sect.
More than 300 Yuanying cultivators appeared together, and the momentum was quite magnificent.
After making some arrangements and instructions, more than 300 Yuanying cultivators then dispersed to the surroundings.
An Changshou then turned to look at Qu Shentong and chuckled:
"Brother Qu, it's already this time, are your three hundred hidden disciples still hiding?"
Qu Shentong laughed:
"Brother An, you are joking. Our two sects are connected to each other. If there are really hidden disciples, can they be hidden from you?"
An Changshou couldn't help showing a hint of curiosity on his face:
"Not hidden disciples? Then it must be..."
Qu Shentong no longer tried to hide it and waved his sleeves.
Three hundred mountain-sized monsters leaped out of his sleeves.
Along with the flying of the monsters, there were also bursts of chicken crowing.
An Changshou looked closely and was immediately confused:
"This... is this a fourth-level spiritual beast?!"
Looking up, they were actually huge fourth-level spiritual chickens and turtles.
The key is that all these spirit chickens and spirit turtles are fourth-grade top-grade spirit beasts, or even fourth-grade top-grade spirit beasts!
"So many fourth-grade spirit beasts... How can there be so many?!"
An Changshou's face showed a rare shock.
Qu Shentong rarely showed his true colors, but he still hid some of them. He shook his head and said:
"This is also the accumulation of my sect's beast control department over the years. I originally planned to take it to Yuntian Realm... Alas, it's all the family assets left by the previous generation."
An Changshou was shocked when he heard this, but he quickly accepted it.
The Wanxiang Sect planned for tens of thousands of years to build a "tribulation treasure raft" to go to Yuntian Realm. Although it was not used before it ushered in a great catastrophe of heaven and earth, so that it failed, but the foundation accumulated for so many years is undoubtedly the most profound among the three sects and one family.
Three hundred fourth-grade spirit beasts may be unimaginable for other sects, but for the Wanxiang Sect, it is really not impossible.
But An Changshou could not help but frown soon, glanced at the spirit beasts that were very obedient after flying out, and whispered:
"Brother Qu, although most of the fourth-level spirit beasts have awakened their intelligence and are no different from humans, they do not practice Taoism after all. Although the nameless technique passed on by Daoist Fellow Yuanci is not difficult, can they... do it?"
Qu Shentong was a little hesitant when he heard this, but thinking that since Wang Ba dared to take the initiative, there must be a reason, he responded calmly:
"Brother An, just wait and see."
Seeing Qu Shentong's confidence, An Changshou did not ask any more questions.
At that moment, Qu Shentong followed Wang Ba's instructions before leaving and gave instructions to these spirit beasts one by one.
Soon, these spirit beasts showed understanding in their eyes.
A spirit turtle even stepped forward, its two keratinous front paws overlapping, as if saluting:
"Don't worry, Master, we will not let you down!"
After saying that, the spirit turtle turned around and whispered something to the spirit chickens and spirit turtles below.
Soon, these spirit chickens and spirit turtles dispersed in batches in an orderly manner.
Each of them was separated by a very long distance, and a ray of hazy light shone on their bodies. The primordial magnetic force that permeated around them was invisible and intangible, but once it came into contact, it quickly condensed into pieces of gray, flowing liquid-like things.
That was the manifestation of the primordial magnetic force.
Although these spirit chickens and spirit turtles seemed clumsy, they were very experienced in performing the nameless technique.
As if they had practiced it countless times.
The primordial magnetic force around them was immediately offset by the hazy light...
Seeing this scene, Qu Shentong was relieved.
An Changshou couldn't help but sigh:
"I've heard for a long time that the Wanxiang Sect's inheritance is all-encompassing and outstanding, but I didn't expect that the way of taming beasts is also unique in the Xiaocang world..."
Qu Shentong rarely said modestly:
"It's not that the Wanxiang Sect's beast control method is unique in Xiaocang Realm, it's just that the spiritual energy has been thin in recent years, and it's difficult to raise spiritual beasts. It's not that the beast control inheritance that has been accumulated in the early years has long been cut off, so no one competes with the Wanxiang Sect."
An Changshou couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he heard this.
In the past, Xiaocang Realm was not without a once-glorious beast control sect.
It's just that with the decline of Xiaocang Realm, these beast control inheritances have gradually withered.
As far as he knows, several branches of the Wanxiang Sect related to beast control were merged into the Wanxiang Sect because they were on the verge of extinction.
In fact, it's not just beast control, such as the way of alchemy, the way of instruments, etc., compared with the past glory, they are actually much more lonely now.
Qu Shentong also put his mind at ease at this time, and his mind turned, recalling another thing that Wang Ba told him before leaving.
Then he looked at An Changshou and said in a deep voice:
"Brother An Dao, I mentioned the matter to your sect before. I wonder what your sect leader Liang thinks?"
An Changshou was stunned, then reacted and frowned:
"Our sect is willing to support the matter of the dojo, but the "Immortal Treasure Tree" is really a big deal... In the past, your sect leader Shao went to our sect in person to seek this treasure but failed. Brother Qu Dao should also know about it."
Qu Shentong was a little displeased when he heard this:
"The dojo is built. With the friendship between our two sects for tens of thousands of years, if there is a share of the Wanxiang Sect, there must be a share of the Changsheng Sect. Once the dojo is opened, if there is no treasure like the Immortal Treasure Tree to suppress it, how can the dojo stand for a long time? This is a win-win situation. Why should Brother Dao hesitate?"
An Changshou heard this and couldn't help but smile bitterly:
"What Brother Qu Dao said is exactly what An has in mind. What I thought was that… Changsheng Sect is different from your sect after all. There are many old people in the sect, and they are not willing to make any changes. Moreover, this immortal treasure tree… is too relevant to be explained in a few words. The most important thing is…”
He paused, and then said:
“Now everyone in the sect knows that Zhongshengzhou can accommodate the existence of a god-transforming cultivator… Although it is only the early stage of the god-transforming, it is enough for most people. After all, how many people can cultivate to the middle and late stages of the god-transforming, or even the refining of the void?”
“With a life span of four or five thousand years, plus the shade of the immortal treasure tree, it may not be impossible to live for six thousand years.”
“Most people in the sect want nothing more than this.”
Hearing An Changshou’s words, Qu Shentong was silent for a while, and finally sighed:
“How do you know that Fenglinzhou today is not the future of Zhongshengzhou?”
An Changshou could not help but be silent.
Then he said helplessly:
"Brother Qu Dao, please allow me to persuade him again."
Qu Shentong sighed and did not reply.
The plan of building a dojo was actually shelved when it was first proposed in the sect.
Even Jiang Yi, the proposer, was not optimistic about it.
After all, it was too unrealistic to open a dojo with at least a thousand Dao domains.
Qu Shentong also thought so.
Only the deputy sect leader Wang Ba seemed to be secretly concerned.
And he secretly mentioned it to him several times.
Although he was not optimistic about this plan, Qu Shentong was optimistic about this junior nephew who was one generation younger than him. After several times, he finally agreed.
He had no way and no ability to solve the Dao domain matter.
But he thought of another way, which was to get Changsheng Sect to join.
Changsheng Sect had a large number of people, and high-level cultivators emerged in an endless stream, and the foundation was also profound.
Especially the Immortal Treasure Tree, the most precious treasure of the sect, can be used as a divine object to suppress the Taoist temple.
It’s a pity that he failed to accomplish what the former Sect Master Shao failed to accomplish.
“No wonder my sect wanted to leave this world in the past. Given the friendship between the two sects, the Changsheng Sect did not go with us…”
Qu Shentong sighed in his heart.
But everyone has their own aspirations, and they cannot be forced.
Thinking of this, he lost his mood. After bidding farewell to An Changshou, he went to inspect.
A few days later.
A figure in a black cloak flew from the gloomy sea to the top of Fengyu Mountain, which was very close to the coast.
On the top of the mountain, there were already several figures waiting.
As soon as he landed, the figure smiled and said:
“Ladies and gentlemen, I am not late, am I?”
“No, we just arrived.”
The young monk in the lead said with a smile.
It was An Changshou, Xiong Zhaojing and others.
After not seeing each other for a few days, they all looked a little tired, but they still forced themselves to chat for a while.
Then An Changshou said solemnly:
"Almost half of the area guarded by our sect has been isolated. Except for some sea beasts that caused trouble and were killed by me, everything went smoothly. At most, it will be completely isolated in another month and a half. I wonder how you are doing?"
The others looked at each other.
Qu Shentong then said: "My isolation speed is a little slow, but if there is half a month, it will be enough... Lin Yi has not arrived yet. When he arrives, I will ask him about the situation in the south and west."
Xiong Zhaojing and Qin Shengyong also replied:
"The northern part of the Eightfold Sea is not bad. I encountered some fierce beasts and captured them. The only problem is that the Yuan magnetic field spreads too far. If we want to completely clear it, I am afraid it will take at least more than a month."
"We have already sent people to block the border in the West Sea Kingdom. It is estimated that it will not take half a month."
Qu Shentong's heart moved when he heard this, and he suddenly said:
"Brother Xiong, I am a little interested in the fierce beasts you captured. Let's talk about it later."
Xiong Zhaojing was stunned, but he didn't think much about it and nodded.
An Changshou looked at Qu Shentong a few more times.
Thinking of those fourth-level spirit beasts, he was thoughtful.
The four of them then briefly summarized it.
Qu Shentong frowned quickly:
"No, you didn't see the incarnation of our deputy leader?"
The other three people couldn't help but look stern.
The Taoist Yuanci is the core of this operation, and there must be no mistakes.
An Changshou said solemnly:
"My sect and your sect have surrounded most of the Eightfold Sea. If Taoist Yuanci comes out, he will definitely run into us, unless he has not returned yet."
Xiong Zhaojing comforted:
"Brother Qu Dao, don't worry. Taoist Yuanci is at the same level as us, and he is proficient in the way of Yuanci. He is like a fish in water here. Even ordinary gods may not be able to do anything to him here. To put it another way, even if he encounters some changes, with his cultivation, he will be able to warn us. But now there is no movement, most likely he is still investigating..."
Qu Shentong's face was slightly relieved, and just as he was about to speak, a red figure quickly flew over from a distance.
Several figures were also vaguely seen flying from behind.
"It's the Lord Lin of your sect..."
Qin Shengyong said.
But he soon showed a puzzled look on his face:
"Hey, why is Sheng Zhao here too?"
Qu Shentong looked over and saw that it was indeed the Lord Lin Yi of the Rende Hall.
In just a blink of an eye, Lin Yi landed in front of the four people and saluted them one by one.
However, Qu Shentong stopped him and said anxiously:
"Lord Lin, have you ever met the incarnation of the deputy sect master when you were in the periphery?"
Lin Yi was stunned, and seeing the other three people looking at him, he immediately reacted and smiled:
"Replying to the sect master, Lin Yi has never met the incarnation of the deputy sect master, but I have an important matter related to the deputy sect master to report to the sect master."
"Hmm?"
Qu Shentong was stunned, and then he was a little confused.
As the Lord of the Rende Hall, Lin Yi still has a sense of propriety, and he will not disclose important matters in the sect at will.
Now it is mentioned in front of everyone, which is quite strange.
An Changshou and others also looked at Lin Yi with some curiosity.
Lin Yi said with a little excitement:
"Not long ago, the monks from Huangji Continent suddenly came, crossed the Chen Kingdom, Sen Kingdom and Li Kingdom, and attacked Dajin..."
The four people's faces changed slightly!
An Changshou couldn't help but ask:
"Huangjizhou monks? Why did they attack Dajin?"
Qu Shentong's face was even colder, and he said in a deep voice:
"Attacking Dajin... Where exactly did they attack? What does this have to do with the deputy sect master?"
Lin Yi saw that the few people were so solemn, and he didn't dare to keep it a secret, and hurriedly explained:
"According to the news from Palace Master Ma, these Huangjizhou monks seemed to be planning to sweep the entire Fenglinzhou, and the first place they chose was Dajin. So after crossing Liguo, they went straight to our Wanxiang Sect, but they were still easily defeated by the deputy sect master in front of the sect. Now, except for the bandit leader who was deliberately released, the rest of them have been captured."
Hearing this, the four people's hearts sank at first, and then they felt relieved.
Qu Shentong's eyes were cold and grim:
"These Huangjizhou cultivators are quite courageous. After we return to the sect, we will definitely go to the Great Sui Lord Yang Que to ask for an explanation."
Xiong Zhaojing couldn't help shaking his head and said:
"These Huangjizhou cultivators are also blinded by greed. They just brought some people here and wanted to sweep across the Great Jin. It's simply..."
Lin Yi was stunned when he heard this, and immediately knew what they had misunderstood.
And Qin Shengyong also smiled and said:
"I'm afraid they think that after the change of heaven, our Great Jin will never recover? These people have been suppressed by the ancestors of Huangjizhou for too long. Now that they have gained power, they will inevitably get carried away..."
Lin Yi was about to explain.
The figures in the distance also landed one after another.
"Chunqiu, why are you here?"
An Changshou looked at one of them in confusion.
It was Yuanci Taoist's old friend, Rui Chunqiu.
Xiong Zhaojing also looked at Xiang Sili, who was flying hurriedly, with a complex expression, and seemed to be full of admiration.
"Xiang, nephew, didn't I tell you to recuperate in the temple for a while? Why did you suddenly come back?"
Xiang Sili shook his head repeatedly, looked at Qu Shentong and Lin Yi, and then sent a message to Xiong Zhaojing.
Xiong Zhaojing's face changed suddenly, and he looked at Xiang Sili in disbelief, then looked at Qu Shentong and Lin Yi, and finally subconsciously lowered his voice:
"You just said that there were a thousand Yuanying cultivators attacking Dajin?!"
"The leader is the Lord of the Great Sui, the Huashen cultivator Yang Que?"
Xiang Sili couldn't help but look at Xiong Zhaojing.
He sent a message on purpose, but why couldn't the deputy master hide the words at all!
But the words had already been said, and Xiang Sili could only nod.
Anyway, it seems that this matter cannot be concealed. The three sects and one clan have ears and eyes all over Dajin. Basically, everyone knows about this kind of thing as soon as it happens.
Sure enough, An Changshou and Qin Shengyong, who still didn't dare to believe it, finally reluctantly accepted this amazing news after listening to the reports of Rui Chunqiu and Qin Shengzhao respectively.
Wanxiang Sect actually defeated the Divine Transformation cultivator Yang Que with almost no losses, even though most of the Nascent Soul cultivators in the sect had left the sect. They also captured thousands of Nascent Soul cultivators.
Only Qu Shentong had not fully accepted it.
Not only the so-called 1,000 Nascent Soul cultivators, but also because of the secret report that Lin Yi secretly transmitted to him.
"Deputy Sect Master, Yang Que was subdued in a single thought... He is a Divine Transformation cultivator!"
Before, Wang Ba had also made a move to turn the tide on the day of the heavenly change and defeated several third-class evil gods.
But they were evil gods after all, not Divine Transformation cultivators.
Now that Wang Ba has subdued the Divine Transformation cultivator himself, it has undoubtedly truly proved his own strength.
"Deputy Sect Master, there is no difference between him and a Divine Transformation cultivator."
He sighed slightly, and in his heart, he suddenly had a desire to retreat.
He originally thought it was too early to hand over the sect to Wang Ba, but now it seems that Wang Ba's growth has far exceeded his expectations.
"It's time to retreat."
"After the Yuanci disaster is resolved and I return to the sect, I will prepare for this."
Qu Shentong thought secretly in his heart.
At this moment.
An invisible sword suddenly flew out of Qu Shentong's sleeve.
The sword flashed, and a figure suddenly appeared out of thin air.
He looked towards the direction of the Eightfold Sea with a cold face.
"Elder Xumi?"
Qu Shentong was stunned.
Xumi did not say anything, his expression was extremely solemn, and he spoke quickly:
"Quickly retreat! Deep in the Eightfold Sea, the Yuanci is about to riot!"
"What!?"
Everyone was shocked.
Qu Shentong's face changed:
"Daoyou Yuanci is down there..."
"I can't take care of him, hurry up!"
Xumi shook his head slightly.
Everyone looked at each other, but they didn't dare to gamble with the lives of their disciples, so they flew around at high speed.
...
Dayan.
In the dilapidated original demon sect.
A group of black-robed monks with deep and rich aura bowed their heads to protect an old man, standing on the ruins.
The old man looked gloomy.
In front of him, a volatile and seemingly disappearing Yuanying phantom looked sad:
"...We were robbed by the Huangjizhou monk... Although he is a god, he doesn't seem to be suppressed by heaven and earth."
"The population we have accumulated over the years has been robbed by him, and many of our fellow disciples have been abducted by him. I beg the Supreme to save me..."
"Where is he?"
"I, I don't know, I only know that he seems to have gone to find those true warriors... Supreme, please save me, as long as I recover, I can still..."
The old man suddenly snorted softly.
The shadow of the Nascent Soul disappeared in astonishment.
"Since it is useless, why do you keep it?"
The old man killed the Nascent Soul casually, but he did not seem to have any emotion at all, and his voice was calm.
He raised his eyes and looked into the distance.
The next moment, his figure disappeared silently on the spot. (End of this chapter)
