On the unknown island, Luo Hong and Han Li stood side by side on the edge of a cliff, looking at the endless sea with different expressions.
"Senior Brother Luo, this sea is rippling with blue waves and full of life. It is far different from the lifeless boundless sea in Tiannan. How far have we teleported to?"
Han Li frowned slightly, feeling uneasy in his heart. He suddenly arrived in a desolate place with weak spiritual energy. It is normal for someone unfamiliar with the place to have such a reaction.
"If you guessed correctly, this place should be called Chaotic Star Sea, and there are many immortal cultivators there."
Luo Hong took out the jade slip of the catalog of spiritual materials obtained from Wanbao Pagoda and handed it to Old Demon Han:
"This jade slip is what I got from an unexpected encounter. It records various spiritual materials and their places of origin in ancient times. Although those spiritual materials definitely do not exist now, the names of various continental islands and islands in the human world are recorded in it.
There should be no change.”
When Han Li heard this, he couldn't help but be curious. Senior Brother Luo actually had such an opportunity. Could it be that he had found the cave of some ancient cultivator?
After taking a look at it with great interest, he quickly returned the jade slip to Luo Hong with a wry smile.
"Golden Crow Meteor Iron, Xuantian Immortal Vine, these jade slips are all recorded in legends. If you read too much, you will easily have dreams. However, it does contain a description of the Chaos Star Sea, which is very similar to the scene here."
After seeing the jade slips, Han Li felt at ease. As a casual cultivator, as long as he could practice, it didn't make any difference where he was.
"Senior Brother Luo, aren't you from the Immortal Cultivation Family? Why did you leave your family and career like your junior brother to come to this chaotic sea of stars?"
"Junior Brother Han didn't know that when Spirit Beast Mountain secretly opened a large formation and allowed the army of demon cultivators to make a surprise attack on the camps of various factions, most of the demon cultivators who attacked the camp in Yellow Maple Valley were demon cultivators from the Tiansha Sect.
Especially those Danjie elders of Tiansha Sect, they look like they want to avenge their disciples!
If I hadn't run away early when I realized the situation was bad, I would have died at the station that day.
After escaping, I thought about it. Now that the seven sects have been defeated, what should I do if the Tiansha Sect forces Huang Maple Valley to hand me over? After all, I killed so many of their foundation-building demon cultivators, which really offended them.
After thinking about it for a few days, I decided not to use this difficult problem to test the elders of the sect. I didn’t even return to Fanghua Garden and went directly to the cave where the ancient teleportation array is located.”
Luo Hong shook his head and sighed, as if he had no choice but to do so.
"By the way, junior brother, what happened to your cultivation level that it dropped back to the Qi refining stage?"
"Senior brother, don't mention it. Junior brother, I am just a good person with no reward. I don't know how long it will take for me to practice and come back, hey."
Han Li thought to himself that he had finally saved a beautiful girl as a hero, but not only did he fail to save the right person, but he also almost lost all his cultivation. This was really unlucky.
"Junior brother, there is no need to worry. I see that your energy is not damaged and your soul is not lacking. The lost magic power will be restored soon. The top priority now is to leave this desert island and find a place with strong spiritual energy.
Just settle down for the time being."
Luo Hong was not randomly comforting Old Demon Han. Although his magic power was gone, his physical body and spirit were still the foundation of a monk in the middle stage of foundation building. It would not be difficult to cultivate again.
"Senior Brother Luo is absolutely right, so we split up to find friends and meet on this island every evening."
Han Li felt slightly refreshed and suggested.
Luo Hong naturally agreed and flew to the vast sea with Old Demon Han.
At the end of the day, Luo Hong returned to the desert island without finding anything, and saw a huge sea ship pulled by more than a dozen big fish docked nearby, and Han Laomo was waiting on the ship.
As soon as he saw Luo Hong coming back as promised, he flew over and said:
"Senior brother, this is a local mortal merchant ship. They are going to Kuixing Island. We can take the ship with them and learn the local language on the way."
"Okay, junior brother, can you ask where this is in the Chaos Star Sea?"
It would be a good idea to go to Kuixing Island first to familiarize yourself with the customs and customs of Luan Xing Sea, Luo Hong asked as he flew towards the ship.
"It is said that this is the southwest corner of the Chaos Star Sea. There are three large islands nearby, including Wei Xing Island, Kuixing Island, and Sang Xing Island. Of course, there are also dozens of other small and medium-sized islands, all of which are inhabited by immortal masters and mortals.
In addition, the owner of this merchant ship seems to be seeking help from a cultivator, and I think he will come to us and make it clear to us after my senior brother boards the ship."
Han Li said a little unhappily, but he didn't want to be tainted with right and wrong just after arriving in a strange place.
"Junior brother, there is no need to refuse in a hurry. We have just arrived in the Chaotic Star Sea and our identity is questionable. If we want to integrate into the local immortal world, we still need some help from the local forces. Let's hear what the ship owner has to say later."
Although Luo Hong will not participate in any business qualification challenge, if he wants to do things conveniently on Kuixing Island, it is best to get the ship owner to come forward as a guarantee.
The two of them were discussing like this and soon landed on the deck. They were immediately led by the old man in charge, Wang Changqing, to the upper room of the merchant ship to rest.
Not long after, Boss Gu came to the door in person to inform him of the troubles he had encountered and the conditions for immortal cultivators to live on Kuixing Island for a long time.
"Our senior brothers know about your matter. You go out first and let me and I discuss it for a while. I will give you an answer tomorrow morning."
Luo Hong took a sip of tea and greeted the guests calmly.
After Boss Gu and Wang Changqing respectfully left, Han Li frowned and said:
"It seems that if you don't participate in that challenge, you won't be able to easily settle down and practice on Kuixing Island. What are your plans, Senior Brother Luo?"
"As for me, I don't want to stay on Kuixing Island for a long time. After all, I am a brother with a small fortune. As a casual cultivator, living in one place for a long time is very easy to be targeted by local forces with vicious intentions. I prefer to find a place overseas.
Cultivation on an isolated island with spiritual veins.
However, junior brother, your first priority now is to restore your cultivation. Those immortal masters mentioned by Gu Dongzhu are only in the Qi refining period. Junior brother, even if your cultivation is greatly reduced now, it should not be difficult to deal with it. Why not do this?
Let’s talk about it after spending a few years cultivating on Kuixing Island.”
Luo Hong discussed the matter.
Han Li nodded slightly. He really wanted to complete the first turn of the third turn of the Chongyuan Gong first, and he gradually made a decision in his heart.
Early the next morning, Gu Dongzhu came to inquire with an anxious mood. After hearing that Han Li was willing to challenge the Gu family on his behalf, he felt a little disappointed. After all, he knew some of the sects that were called among the immortal masters. Senior brothers were generally better than
Junior brother is stronger.
But Gu Dongzhu was also a very well-connected person in the city, and his disappointment did not show on his face at all. Instead, he thanked him happily and claimed that even if Luo Hong did not go to war, he would be his guarantee. Obviously, he had not given up trying to win over Luo Hong.
Luo Hong accepted this benefit with peace of mind, and he also acted as a lobbyist for him.
Five days later, the merchant ship finally docked amid the cheers of the mortal crew.
As soon as Boss Gu got off the boat, he hurriedly helped Luo Hong and Han Li go through the formalities. After finishing, he would lead them to the manor where he lived.
Luo Hong pinned the jade plaque brought by Boss Gu to her waist and declined:
"No need, you and I will say goodbye here. Boss Gu, don't be obsessed with Luo. Junior Brother Han will never let you down. Everyone, take your leave!"
Having said that, he jumped into the air without waiting for his proprietor to persuade him to stay.
"Senior Brother Luo, take care!"
Han Li slightly cupped his hands and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. After saying goodbye today, he wondered if he would ever be able to see his senior brother again in this life.
...
After leaving the port, Luo Hongfei fled for a short while and came to Qingyun Mountain, the gathering place for immortal cultivators on Kuixing Island.
After asking around for a while, we walked towards a small market at the foot of the mountain.
There is a huge difference between the market in Luan Xinghai and Tiannan. The main reason is that all kinds of monster materials are rare in Tiannan. They are like low-level talismans here and are sold and purchased in various shops.
After shopping around, Luo Hong walked into the largest shop he had ever seen.
The clerk in this shop is a young man with a third level of Qi refining. When he saw Luo Hong showing off his advanced level of Qi refining, he immediately greeted him enthusiastically.
"Your Excellency, please come in. Our Lanyun Pavilion has gathered all kinds of products around Kuixing Island, and we will definitely be able to meet all your needs!"
"Do you have a chart?"
Luo Hong asked with no sign of joy or anger.
The isolated spiritual island he was looking for definitely did not exist around Kuixing Island, or even in the entire Inner Star Sea.
You must first go to Tianxing City, pass through the teleportation array of the Star Palace, and reach the outer star sea ruled by monsters before you have a chance to find it.
After all, the so-called Inner Star Sea is actually a sea area that has been explored by immortal cultivators, and the islands in it that can be used for cultivating immortals must have been occupied.
The outer star sea is a world of monsters. Except for those islands where monster hunting monks can rest, the rest are uninhabited islands, and many of them have spiritual veins.
"Of course, what are your requirements?"
The young clerk's smile became even brighter, and he had a hunch that the business was likely to be successful.
A serious and old-fashioned immortal cultivator like the one in front of me never bargains for the things he likes, so he pays for the spiritual stones very readily.
"I want the sea map leading to Tianxing City. If there is a sea map of the outer star sea, please take a look at it."
Luo Hong said calmly, thinking that buying a chart would be trouble-free, but when he saw the young clerk's face turned bitter after hearing this, he knew that the matter was not that simple.
"What? Don't you have the chart I want?"
"Sir, to be honest, I have the chart you want, but I can't sell it to you. This is a rule set by the island owner. Except for the charts around Kuixing Island, other charts are not allowed on the island.
For sale in the market.
Monks who want these charts can only go to the Dengxian Pavilion set up by the island owner to exchange them, and it doesn't just take a few spiritual stones."
The young man told the truth.
There is such a rule?!
Is Kuixing Island in short supply of immortal cultivators?
The purpose of the island owner of Kuixing Island in setting up this kind of rule is simply to restrict the flow of immortal cultivators. Those who really want to leave must leave a sum of spiritual stones before leaving.
"Besides paying the spirit stones, what else do you need?"
Luo Hong asked with a frown.
"We need contribution points from this island. If you join the island's island protection team with your level of cultivation, you can get it by serving for ten years.
If you don’t want to delay for ten years, you can also choose to hand over some specific elixirs and spiritual materials, or perform the tasks issued by the Dengxian Pavilion."
The young waiter clapped his fingers and introduced each item.
It seems that Kuixing Island is really short of immortal cultivators. The entire Chaotic Star Sea is vast and sparsely populated, and this is the periphery of the Inner Star Sea, so the shortage of people is naturally even more serious.
It's impossible to work for ten years, let alone hand over the elixir and spiritual materials. I definitely don't have them on hand. Is it really necessary to carry out the task? It sounds a bit dangerous, otherwise there would be no need to force people in this way.
Do it.
Just as Luo Hong was thinking about it, two women, one large and one small, walked in outside the door.
The eldest is in his thirties and still has charm. He has a beauty mark under his right eye, which doesn't add to his charm.
The younger one is seventeen or eighteen years old and looks quite similar to the former one. Both of them are looking a little sad at the moment.
"Aunt Lan, are you really unable to find the manpower? If the delivery is delayed, we will have to pay a large amount of spiritual stones as compensation."
Yi Xiuxiu frowned. She actually participated in the market business at a young age, which made Luo Hong secretly surprised.
"There is no way. The demon-hunting team that has been cooperating with us in the past years has been recruited by the Ye family this time. Even if we can barely find the manpower, it is unlikely to catch a sufficient number of sharpmouth fish."
Aunt Lan shook her head and sighed, furious at the Ye family's shameless behavior.
"I knew it was the Ye family who did it. They wanted to force me to marry so that they could embezzle my Yi family's property. I won't let them do it!"
Yi Xiuxiu clenched her fists and said angrily, but then she loosened her fists weakly and leaned on Aunt Lan aggrievedly.
"Hey, Xiuxiu, my eldest brother said this would happen before he passed away. Only by winning over a foundation-building monk can our Lanyung Pavilion truly live in peace. Otherwise, plundering like today will continue to happen."
Aunt Lan put her arms around the girl's shoulders and comforted her for a while before taking her upstairs to rest.
"It would be great if my father hadn't gone out to hunt monsters with some of his friends, and Xiuxiu and Aunt Lan wouldn't have been bullied like this."
The girl complained in a low voice about the injustice of her fate, but Luo Hong, who had already half-stepped out of the shop door, listened.
"Two fellow Taoists, I may be able to help you solve your current troubles."
This girl's father has been to the outer star sea, so there must be relevant charts. Luo Hong feels that compared to the mission of climbing the Immortal Pavilion, this kind of monster hunting operation that happens every few years is safer.
"Who are you? You are so rude when you eavesdrop on your daughter's conversation."
Aunt Lan's eyes turned cold, she lost all the tenderness she had when treating the girl, and said in a scolding tone.
She dared to speak like this because Luo Hong's current tenth level of Qi refining was one level lower than hers.
"Aunt Lan, don't say that. We didn't avoid others when we spoke just now. It doesn't sound like this eldest brother was eavesdropping."
Yi Xiuxiu herself has no solution to the current predicament. Suddenly hearing that someone can provide help is like a drowning person who suddenly sees a straw. He knows that there is little hope but will never let go.
She immediately said to Luo Hong pleasantly:
"What do you call this big brother? Do you have a team of monster hunters?"
"I'm Luo Hong, a casual cultivator from a nearby island. I've just arrived in Guidao, but I don't have any demon hunting team under my command."
Luo Hong smiled and introduced herself casually.
"Look, I just said it was a lie, Yi Liang, you still haven't seen off the guests!"
Aunt Lan's eyes moved slightly, and she immediately issued an order to expel the guests.
"Wait a minute, Aunt Lan. Since Brother Luo has spoken, he has his reasons. Brother Liang, go and pour tea.
Brother Luo, please go upstairs to talk with me in detail."
Yi Xiuxiu couldn't hide the disappointment on her face, but she quickly cheered up and invited Luo Hong to a reception room on the second floor.
