Chapter 496 Immortal Army

It turns out that Tianshui Xiancheng, if you want to talk about ancient times, you have to go back to hundreds of thousands of years ago. This fairy city was built when the Yushui Palace just appeared.

However, at the beginning, this Tianshui Xiancheng was naturally not as magnificent as it is now. At that time, Tianshui Xiancheng was at best a small fairy city, and because it was located in the deepest part of the Wanyao Sea, it was often attacked by monsters.

In this process, this Tianshui Xiancheng was also transferred back and forth between human cultivators and monsters, and the entire fairy city was rebuilt in ruins again and again.

Later, after hundreds of thousands of years of fighting and fighting, the human race gradually gained a foothold here, and through the advantages of the human race's formation, they established a formation known as the first strange formation in ancient and modern times-the Five Elements Fantasy Sky and Sea Formation.

When Xiao Lin heard this, he naturally guessed the sky curtain he saw outside.

Li Er quickly explained to Xiao Lin that the Five Elements Illusionary Sky and Sea Array was indeed the sky curtain that stretched between the sky and the sea outside. From Li Er's introduction, Xiao Lin learned that the sky curtain usually looked like a barrier across the depths of the Wan Yao Sea.

Once the monsters attacked, the Five Elements Illusionary Sky and Sea Array would exert its true power. This large array was a high-level array that combined the five elements of attack. Moreover, according to rumors, this large array was not created by the Yu Shui Palace, but was personally supervised and built by the legendary Divine Transformation Monk.

It was precisely because of this Five Elements Illusionary Sky and Sea Array that Tianshui Xiancheng has been as stable as Mount Tai for tens of thousands of years. Although it has experienced several attacks by endless monsters, it was safe and sound in the end. Every time the monsters attacked, the ending was to leave countless corpses and flee back to the depths of the Wan Yao Sea in a panic.

Xiao Lin listened to Li Er's explanation with great interest. In his opinion, Tianshuixian City had indeed witnessed the process of human cultivators expanding their territory in the endless sea of ​​monsters. There were failures and successes, but overall, human cultivators were very tenacious and stood firm in this boundless sea.

This made Xiao Lin admire the deeds of those human ancestors. Cultivators practiced Taoism in order to ascend to the upper realm one day and enjoy a long life.

But the reason why these latecomers were able to grab a large amount of cultivation resources in the sea of ​​monsters was thanks to the predecessors who died here in order to open up this foundation.

Although Yushui Palace is the vested interest in this large sea area, it was also at a great cost that they were able to achieve today's achievements. In the final analysis, it was not a fluke.

However, Xiao Lin only reminisced about these past deeds. He naturally had no idea of ​​following the footsteps of his predecessors, continuing to expand the territory and further expand the human race's voice in the sea of ​​​​ten thousand monsters.

In his opinion, at his current level, he should practice honestly and strive to further improve his combat power and realm. As the saying goes, one should not interfere in other's affairs. Since the Yushui Palace wants to occupy the endless resources for cultivating immortals, it will naturally have to pay some costs for guarding.

Immediately afterwards, Li Si began to introduce Xiao Lin to the commercial layout of Tianshuixian City. Through his explanation, Xiao Lin realized that Tianshuixian City also has a large market located at the east gate of the city. It is the only entrance and exit through the sky curtain to enter the battlefield of humans and monsters.

Therefore, in the east market, there are a large number of resources from the Wan Yao Sea, which can be said to be everything. In the north of the city, almost all the famous businesses in the East Territory gather. These businesses purchase a large amount of materials on the one hand, and sell various items on the other hand. It can be said that there is everything.

As for the south of the city near Tianshui Peak, many caves for cultivation have been built, and around Tianshui Peak, the higher the cave, the better the quality. The best cave in the entire Tianshui Fairy City is on the top of Tianshui Peak, on the inverted mountain.

It is rumored that the several caves for cultivation on the top can turn spiritual energy into liquid, and there is a spiritual pool in each cave. However, only the supreme elders of the Yu Shui Palace are qualified to cultivate in these caves. And it is heard that there are at least six Yuanying stage cultivators stationed in Tianshui Fairy City all year round.

Counting the Yuanying stage cultivators who travel to Tianshui Fairy City, the number of Yuanying old monsters in Tianshui Fairy City has always remained above a dozen.

Hearing this, Xiao Lin was also amazed. Since he started cultivating immortals, he had encountered no more than two palms of immortal cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage. However, there were more than a dozen of them gathered in Tianshui Xiancheng. It was no wonder that Tianshui Xiancheng had stood for tens of thousands of years and was still as stable as a mountain.

Moreover, Xiao Lin also heard a new term from Li Er, that is, the Immortal Army. Whether it was the Yushui Palace, the Five Elements Alliance or the Six Paths Kuimo Palace, they were so powerful that they became an unshakable existence in the Eastern Territory.

It was precisely because there were immortal armies in these three major sects, that is, the army of immortal cultivators. These armies of immortal cultivators were different from the many immortal cultivators gathered together. These armies of immortal cultivators were composed of disciples drawn from the sects. Disciples of each major realm would rotate to serve in the immortal army during this realm.

For example, the outer disciples of the Yushui Palace, that is, the numerous Qi Refining disciples, when they enter the late Qi Refining period, have to serve in the Immortal Army, usually for ten years. During this period, these Qi Refining disciples not only have to continue to practice and improve their own realm, but also have to practice various combination arrays that can be used by Qi Refining cultivators.

These arrays range from the simplest Three Talents Array to the more complex Five Elements Array, Seven Elements Array, and even the Nine Palace Array that can only be performed by hundreds of cultivators. Through the skilled combination of arrays, Qi Refining cultivators can launch more powerful attacks, and even many Qi Refining cultivators can easily kill true monsters with their arrays.

The same is true for Foundation Establishment disciples, and they serve longer, reaching an astonishing thirty years. During their service, the treatment of these Yushui Palace disciples is also extremely enviable. Not only will the sect issue a large number of spirit stones, but also spiritual pills every month. Even their own magic tools are uniformly refined and issued by the sect.

This also made many disciples of the Yu Shui Palace want to join the immortal army to serve. Of course, the main reason is that the human race and the demon race are still in a peaceful state. If they are really in a war, most people are still unwilling to join the immortal army.

After all, in a large-scale war, even these well-trained immortal armies will suffer heavy casualties.

Xiao Lin also learned from Li Er's introduction that in a super sect like the Yu Shui Palace, there are immortal armies formed by Jindan Zhenren. Even when facing the transformed demon race, such immortal army teams are not afraid of the battle.

It is even rumored that there are some high-level formations controlled by Yuanying cultivators in the Yu Shui Palace. Once deployed, even the powerful beings in the demon race will die.

However, ordinary immortal cultivators can't see this level of fighting at all. What Li Er said is just a legend.

Xiao Lin naturally wouldn't take these things seriously. For cultivators, the higher the realm, the less obvious the advantage of winning by numbers. For example, if a Jindan cultivator takes action, even if there are several great cultivators fighting with him, there is a probability of more than 90% that these great cultivators will be wiped out.

By the same token, a great cultivator can easily resist several late-stage Yuanying cultivators, and there is a high probability that these late-stage Yuanying cultivators will end up in complete defeat.

Therefore, in Xiao Lin's view, the formation formed by Jindan cultivators, even if they can compete with Yuanying cultivators, is only a competition and delay time. If they want to really kill the transformed demon cultivators, it is mostly impossible.

In fact, what Xiao Lin thought of was more reliable. As a Jindan cultivator, as his realm and cultivation level improved, he began to understand that the gap between high-level cultivators would only widen. At the level of Yuanying, it is no longer possible to rely on numbers to gain an absolute advantage.

However, through Li Er, Xiao Lin also gained a lot. Not only did he have a deeper understanding of the power of the Yushui Palace, but he also had a clear understanding of all the layouts of Tianshui Xiancheng.

After throwing twenty low-grade spirit stones to Li and sending him away, Xiao Lin went straight to the city's east market.

Many of the soul-eating fire insects raised by Xiao Lin have advanced to the true high level, which also caused a shortage of demon-transforming grass in his spirit wood space, and the gap is very large, so as usual, Xiao Lin will search for green demon-transforming grass everywhere.

When he came to a remote corner, Xiao Lin's spiritual light flashed, and when the spiritual light dissipated, he had already turned into a forty-year-old black-faced man with a warm smile on his face, heading towards the east of the city.

Tianshui Xiancheng, according to Xiao Lin's estimation, covers at least two or three hundred miles, and there is a no-fly ban in the fairy city. If he just walks, it will take a few days for Xiao Lin to reach the east of the city.

However, in this fairy city, a teleportation array was built between each area. After spending sixteen low-grade spirit stones, Xiao Lin was directly teleported to the east of the city.

After leaving the teleportation array, Xiao Lin heard a noisy sound. Looking around, a huge square covering a distance of 10 to 20 miles appeared in front of Xiao Lin. On the square were rows of immortal cultivators with countless stalls.

Tens of thousands of immortal cultivators shuttled through it, and the sounds of bargaining, explanations, and noise filled this area.

Although Xiao Lin had already advanced to the Golden Core Stage and was considered a high-level immortal cultivator, he still felt a sense of familiarity after seeing such a scene.

Thinking that he had cultivated step by step from the bottom to the present level, he also gained a lot in this low-level market.

Moreover, the reason why Xiao Lin liked to come to this market was that there were often some spiritual medicines that did not meet the age for sale here. The value of such spiritual medicines themselves was extremely low, and they would not appear in some large business houses, but these spiritual medicines were all treasures for Xiao Lin.
