Chapter 641 The World Outside
At this time, saving his life was the most important thing. Everything else was out of his mind. As for why he had a sixth-level forest-piercing beast skin on him, he probably didn't care too much. Now that the seven major immortal sects had changed, people were in a panic. Who would pay attention to these details?
Qingyang reacted in time. As soon as the skin was thrown out, the sharp claws of the red flame bird had arrived. With a sizzling sound, the forest-piercing beast skin was cut in half by the red flame bird, and Qingyang took the opportunity to roll out two or three feet. When the red flame bird was about to attack Qingyang again, the people around him had already reacted. Without any greeting, they each sacrificed their spiritual weapons and launched an attack.
The red flame bird did not intend to fight these foundation-building monks head-on. Seeing that this attack could not succeed, it laughed twice, then quickly circled in the air, avoided the attacks of these disciples, and began to look for the next target to attack.
Qingyang escaped the disaster, his heart was beating so hard that he couldn't calm down for a long time. Fortunately, he was the second target of the Red Flame Bird, which gave him some buffer. If the Red Flame Bird had attacked him first, he would have died long ago, and the Chuanlin Beast Skin would have been useless.
Qingyang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He finally escaped. There were hundreds of cultivators present, and he was the second one to be targeted by the Red Flame Bird. He was extremely unlucky. However, he had been attacked once, and according to the probability, the possibility of him being attacked again was not high, so he was safe for the time being.
The development of the matter to this point was completely beyond Qingyang's expectations. Huixuzi and General Chuanlin had already escaped from Yinfeng Gorge. He originally thought that the war was about to end and it would not take long for the Seven Immortal Sects to return victorious, but he did not expect the situation to take a sharp turn for the worse and become what it is now.
What was even more unexpected was that the Seven Immortal Sects, which seemed to be extremely prosperous, were so vulnerable that they collapsed just because of a small matter. Of the seven sect leaders, only Qiyun Zhenren and Yuchu Zhenren were left struggling to support the group. It was hard to say who would win or lose in the end, and this was just the beginning. Even if they could escape safely this time, they would still have to face the attacks and pursuits of the remnants of the Blood Demon Cult. From then on, the cultivation world of Jiuzhou Continent would probably never have peace.
It is said that the more chaotic the cultivation world is, the more opportunities there will be. If you can seize the opportunity and follow the right person, you may have the possibility of soaring into the sky. However, Qingyang also knew that opportunities and dangers are proportional. The more chaotic the cultivation world is, the more dangers there will be. The safety of most cultivators cannot be guaranteed, and it is unlikely that they can cultivate with peace of mind.
At this time, Qingyang suddenly remembered what the Netherworld Sanren said twenty years ago. The so-called Jiuzhou Continent was just a small island in his eyes. Compared with the whole world, it was just a drop in the ocean, and the real world was so huge that it was beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
And the one-eyed dragon Leng Yu had also been in the outer sea for twenty years. He couldn't make it anymore, so he fled back to Jiuzhou Continent with the soul-catching Sang Fan.
In other words, the world outside is vast, and there may be more opportunities. Of course, it is definitely more dangerous outside than the Jiuzhou Continent. If Qingyang's cultivation is still in the Qi Refining Stage, he will definitely not go out to take risks casually. If his cultivation is too low, he will simply die.
Now Qingyang is already a foundation-building cultivator and has a certain ability to protect himself. If the Netherworld Sanren dares to come, does he not dare to go out? Qingyang also has his own pursuits. He also wants to see what the ultimate of cultivating immortals is. With the Drunken Immortal Gourd in hand, he does not think he is worse than others. The Jiuzhou Continent is still too small to pursue, and Qingyang will go out sooner or later.
Unconsciously, Qingyang's thoughts ran farther and farther. In short, he secretly made up his mind that if the Blood Demon Cult did not succeed in the end, he would continue to stay in the Jiuzhou Continent until his cultivation was higher and more confident in the future. If the Blood Demon Cult is powerful, the seven major immortal gates are broken by the Blood Demon Cult, and the righteous path withers from then on, then he will go out in advance and try his luck outside.
Regardless of what Qingyang was thinking, the situation on the field was becoming increasingly tense. From the previous round, the Red Flame Bird had a clear advantage, killing a foundation-building cultivator while being unscathed. However, a cultivator in the early stage of foundation-building was not a serious injury to the hundreds of disciples present, and the Red Flame Bird did not take too much advantage.
According to the strength of the monsters, the Red Flame Bird is a seventh-level spirit beast, which is roughly equivalent to a second-level Jindan cultivator. It is not much stronger than the cultivators, but she made full use of her advantages and restrained hundreds of foundation-building cultivators with just one spirit beast.
Of course, the cultivators were not given away for nothing. First, they were numerous, and second, there were many backbones in the late stage of foundation-building among these disciples. Their strength was not much worse than that of the Red Flame Bird. With the cooperation of many people, their attack power was not inferior to that of a Jindan cultivator. The Red Flame Bird could only cause sporadic damage to the foundation-building cultivators, but it was difficult to cause large-scale damage. It had little impact on the overall strength of the foundation-building cultivators, and it was possible that they would be surrounded because of a moment of carelessness.
But in general, the seven major sects are still at a disadvantage. After hundreds of foundation-building cultivators were tied up, Yu Chu Zhenren's strength is not much higher than Huang Ming Zhenren. There is almost no possibility of defeating the opponent in a short period of time. Instead, he may be held back by Huang Ming Zhenren, creating conditions for Ling Xue Zhenren. At that time, the seven major sects will lose.
Thinking of his momentary greed, he and Gu Hong Zhenren secretly pushed for a decisive battle with Yinfeng Gorge, which resulted in the death and injury of several sect leaders. Seeing that the Blood Demon Cult's evil plan succeeded and might even unify the Jiuzhou Continent's cultivation world, Yu Chu Zhenren regretted it. If the Blood Demon Cult really destroyed the seven major sects in the end, he would completely become the eternal sinner of the righteous cultivators.
Although Gu Hong Zhenren was the main messenger, he was already dead and paid the price of his life for his mistakes. What should he do? Should he watch the Blood Demon Sect destroy the seven major sects? No, never, he must stop all this from happening and atone for his mistakes.
Seeing the stalemate on the field, Yu Chu Zhenren's eyes suddenly showed a trace of determination. He gritted his teeth, took out a fiery red pill from his arms and threw it directly into his mouth. The pill quickly turned into a hot liquid that was absorbed by the body and gradually spread into his limbs.
The boundless heat radiated, and Yu Chu Zhenren felt that his body was so hot that it was uncomfortable, as if he was roasted on a big fire. In a blink of an eye, Yu Chu Zhenren's body swelled up, his skin was scary red, and his momentum almost doubled. Originally, Yu Chu Zhenren's strength was the seventh level of Jindan, which was similar to the opposite side of Huang Ming Zhenren. Now it has suddenly been promoted to the eighth level of Jindan, which is not much less than that of Qiyun Zhenren in his heyday.
