After using the Five Elements Ring to imprison the Confucian scholar and the strong man, Luo Hong flicked out a Dark Qingzi with his fingers, while Han Li waved his hand and struck out several Qingyuan Sword Qi.
Although these two are not powerful magical powers, they are deadly enough for two monks who are in the early stage of forming pills and have never practiced body refining techniques.
The next moment, a bloody hole opened up between the Confucian scholar's eyebrows, and the strong man was cut into several pieces with his sword energy, and he died at the same time.
The two of them fired a small fireball to dispose of the body. Luo Hong collected the Confucian scholar's storage bag and the sacrificed inkstone, and said calmly towards the sea below:
"Fellow Daoist Ling, you really caused a lot of trouble for Zhuo this time."
Although Luo Hong's voice was not loud, it echoed across a large area of the sea along with the sea breeze.
"Brother Zhuo, there is nothing I can do. The grace of saving my life today will be repaid generously in the future!"
As soon as Luo Hong finished speaking, a figure wearing Star Palace's iconic white clothes flew out from the sea.
Han Li also noticed that there was a person hiding in the sea, and wanted to call him out, but was overtaken by Senior Brother Luo, and Senior Brother Qi Luo seemed to be familiar with this person.
While he was doubting, he saw the appearance of the person coming clearly, and immediately realized that he also knew this person.
It was the strange monk Ling Yuling who was indistinguishable from male to female whom he met in the Star Palace Artifact Refining Room many years ago.
This person has actually reached the early stage of pill formation!
After not seeing each other for so many years, Han Li felt that Ling Yuling was becoming more beautiful, and the charm between her eyebrows was even more charming, but her handsome and masculine temperament was also much stronger, so when we meet again today, we still can't tell whether she is a man or a woman.
"We don't have to wait until the future. Brother Han and I have something we need help from fellow Taoist Ling."
Although not much is known in the Star Palace about Ling Yuling's identity as a descendant of the Twin Saints of Heaven and Star, the elders above the level of pill formation all know that she has a profound background. With her as a guarantee, it will be easy to borrow the teleportation formation of the Star Palace.
"Brother Zhuo, are you encountering difficulties? Please speak up and I will definitely help you."
Ling Yuling was stunned for a moment, then bowed her hands and said.
"Zhuo and Brother Han have an emergency trip to the sea, but we both know that the Star Palace will strictly control the teleportation array during this war.
As outsiders, Brother Han and I are afraid it will be extremely difficult to borrow the teleportation array at this time, so I would like to ask Fellow Daoist Ling to help us make a triumphant return."
Luo Hong bowed his hands and returned the greeting.
"You two are going to the sea?"
Ling Yuling glanced at Luo Hong and Han Li, pondered for a moment and then said:
"I beg your pardon to be frank, but it is not a good choice for you two to go to the open sea right now.
Although the Counter Star Alliance is an alliance formed by a ragtag group of people, it has already become a force. It will take a lot of time for us in the Star Palace to destroy them. Once the two of you are teleported to the outer sea, I am afraid that they will not be able to come back before the war is over.
.
And if the two of you just want to avoid the war, there is no need to go to the open sea.
Because on the other side of the sea, there are also forces from our Star Palace and the Counter Star Alliance fighting, and the two of them just ran from one battlefield to another.
In comparison, it would be better for you two to join our star palace. With Brother Zhuo's weapon refining skills and Brother Han's ability, you will definitely be able to occupy a place in our star palace. Even if you are in the whirlpool, it will be safer than going to the open sea alone."
Luo Hong secretly laughed. This Ling Yuling was indeed the young master of Xing Palace. At this time, she was still thinking of winning them over. Her words were quite evasive.
Everyone knows whether the Counter Star Alliance is a mob, but as a member of the Star Palace, Ling Yuling naturally cannot gain the morale of others and destroy her own prestige. It is not unusual to belittle her opponents in this way.
Although there are wars in the outer sea, compared to the war in the Inner Sea of Stars where even the alchemy monks are unable to defend themselves, it is only as noisy as a child.
In addition, Luo Hong would not take Ling Yuling's assurance that it would be safer to join the Star Palace seriously even if he did not face the pursuit of Ji Yin and others.
It wasn't that he couldn't trust Ling Yuling, but that Ling Yuling didn't have real power after all, so she couldn't always take care of him and Old Mo Han.
Therefore, after joining Star Palace, the probability that he and Old Demon Han will go to the battlefield is extremely high, and they will most likely be sent out on cannon fodder missions.
Luo Hong and Han Laomo looked at each other, and after confirming that neither of them had wavered in their determination, Han Laomo coughed lightly and said:
"Fellow Daoist Ling, although I have longed for the Star Palace for a long time, Brother Zhuo and I are both elders of the Miaoyin Sect, so we cannot abandon the sect at this time.
In addition, the two of us do have important things to do when we go to the outer sea. We are not just trying to escape the war, but we also ask fellow Daoist Ling to make it convenient for us."
"In that case, I won't persuade you anymore. I'll leave it up to you to borrow the teleportation array. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time. Let's set off now."
Ling Yuling knew that Luo Hong was not a simple person. After Dai Xinggong expressed his goodwill, he gave up the invitation and did not force too much.
Han Li's face was filled with joy. He didn't expect that the most troublesome matter would be solved before he even arrived at Tianxing City. Senior Brother Luo was really blessed.
Luo Hong nodded slightly, thinking, "There are people above who can do things easily." This sentence is indeed true. Lu Daoyou sincerely does not deceive me.
Afterwards, the three of them fled all the way without encountering any accidents along the way.
When they arrived near Tianxing City, a group of monks, four men and one woman, flew in from nowhere.
The leader is a middle-aged monk with a sallow complexion, one of them is a monk in the early stage of pill formation, and the remaining four are all Star Palace disciples in the foundation stage.
The yellow-faced monk was extremely attentive when he saw Ling Yuling. He treated Luo Hong and the two of them as if they were nothing, and greeted Ling Yuling with greetings and greetings.
This person showed it so clearly that his thoughts were obvious to all passersby.
Ling Yuling obviously disliked this person very much. She was always polite to others, but she didn't give him any good looks.
"Junior Brother Ling, you are injured! Brother, there is a Heavenly Spirit Pill here, which is quite effective in healing injuries. Please take it as soon as possible."
When the yellow-faced monk saw that Ling Yuling's expression was wrong, he anxiously took out an emerald-green pill.
"Thank you, senior brother, but that's not necessary. Junior brother has to take these two fellow Taoists into the city. They will take the elixir to heal their injuries later."
After Ling Yuling said that, she left the yellow-faced monk behind and led Luo Hong and the others toward the few remaining open entrances to Tianxing City.
The yellow-faced monk watched Ling Yuling go away with a look of astonishment. Although Junior Brother Ling had been kind to him before, he would not be so indifferent. What happened today? Is it because of the two strange monks beside him?
Thinking of this, the yellow-faced monk couldn't help but reveal a fierce look.
After getting rid of the yellow-faced monk, Han Li couldn't help but become more curious about Ling Yuling's gender and couldn't help but take a second look.
"Brother Han, why are you always looking down? Is there anything wrong?"
Ling Yuling didn't mind Han Li's gaze. After so many years of pretending to be a man, she was already accustomed to such curious glances.
However, I felt a little uncomfortable being stared at all the time, so I gave a warning.
"Haha, fellow Taoist Ling, don't be surprised. Brother Han is just curious about whether fellow Taoist is a dragon or a phoenix. He has no evil intentions."
Luo Hong saw Old Mo Han's embarrassment and explained.
"Oh? Then Brother Zhuo, are you really curious? Or do you already have the answer in your heart?"
Ling Yuling stretched out a slender white hand to stir up her hair, with a smile on her face, she suddenly became extremely charming and charming.
Luo Hong and Han Li couldn't help but be stunned by such beautiful scenery.
Later, Luo Hong, who felt a slight chill on the back of his neck, woke up first and said with a slightly embarrassed smile:
"Well, Zhuo is actually a little curious. If it is convenient for you, fellow Daoist Ling, please help me and the two of you clear up our doubts."
"Haha, of course I am a man, where are you thinking?"
Ling Yuling smiled heartily and turned around. Neither Luo Hong nor Han Li noticed the two blushes that quietly rose on her cheeks.
What happened to me just now?
When faced with this kind of problem in the past, I always said frankly that I am a boy, so why would I do this unnecessary thing this time?
"Then why did that Taoist friend just now..."
Han Li was a little dizzy and filled with doubts.
"Haha, Brother Han, there are people of Longyang in this world. Fellow Daoist Ling is so handsome, so it's normal for him to attract bees and butterflies."
Luo Hong chuckled and explained deliberately.
"Brother Zhuo! Please stop talking about this!"
Ling Yuling was immediately embarrassed when she heard this, and quickly spoke to stop Luo Hong from continuing.
Hehe, I told you to tease me and Old Mo Han just now, so it’s even.
Luo Hong thought secretly.
After this twists and turns passed, although the three of them were questioned many times along the way, they were all let go smoothly because of Ling Yuling's presence.
In this way, after the two entered Tianxing City, they went back to the cave to pack their things, and then Ling Yuling led them to the Teleportation Hall.
Before entering the door, she suddenly turned around and asked the two of them:
"Brother Zhuo, Brother Han, are you heading to the open sea to do with monsters?"
Han Li didn't know the reason why Ling Yuling suddenly asked about this matter. After thinking for a while, he replied:
"It is indeed related to monsters. I don't know, Fellow Daoist Ling, can you give me some advice?"
“I don’t take it seriously, but I know that there are many more monsters near a monster island than other monster islands.
If you two believe me, you might as well teleport there."
Ling Yuling was somewhat mysterious.
"I can go anywhere, what do you think, Brother Zhuo?"
Han Li was about to kill demons and make elixirs. If what Ling Yuling said was true, it would be the best thing.
"Okay, Fellow Daoist Ling, just make arrangements."
There are many monsters and monsters, which means that the spiritual energy in that sea area is rich, and the chance of finding a high-quality spiritual energy island will be greater. Luo Hong will naturally not object.
"Okay, you two, please come with me."
Ling Yuling smiled slightly and led the two of them towards a house.
As soon as they entered, the two Xing Gong Dan Elders who were guarding the formation raised their hands and saluted:
"Ling Protector."
"These two are my good friends. I need to go to the sea for something else. I also asked the two elders to activate the teleportation array."
After Ling Yuling nodded in response, she ordered unceremoniously.
"But Protector Ling, the Supreme Elders have ordered the teleportation array to be sealed. No one can enter or leave. If the monks are released to the open sea privately, I'm afraid..."
When the bald elder among the two elders heard this, he immediately said with an expression of embarrassment.
"This order was conveyed by me personally, so it is clearly clear to me. There is no need for Elder Hong to remind me!"
Ling Yuling's eyes turned cold at first, forcing the bald elder's subsequent words back into her stomach, and then said warmly:
"Although you two elders activate the teleportation array, if anyone holds you accountable in the future, just say it was me, Ling Yuling, who forced you two."
The two bald elders had actually secretly released the immortal cultivators to the outer sea to take the opportunity to collect the spirit stones. They were not the ones to accept death. Therefore, after receiving the guarantee from Ling Yuling, they stopped talking and began to cast spells to open the teleportation array.
At this time, Luo Hong looked at the stone tablet in front of the teleportation formation and smiled bitterly in his heart.
I saw the word "Qiyuan" written on the stone tablet. It was obvious that the destination of this teleportation array was Qiyuan Island.
There is no problem with this island. The reason why Luo Hong smiles bitterly is because he has the mark left by the ninth-level demon cultivator Feng Xi in his body, and Qiyuan Island is the closest monster island to this demon lair.
At the auction that year, Luo Hong took the risk to trade with this demon in order to obtain the heart of ten thousand years of wood. Because it went surprisingly smoothly, he suspected that the demon had played tricks on him, but no clues were found at the time.
Later, after Luo Hong's soul broke through the Fourth Evolution realm, when he checked himself again, he found the aura of this demon.
However, the mark set by this demon is very special. It seems to be its innate magical power. Luo Hong has been busy practicing over the years and has never been able to completely eliminate this mark.
Luo Hong didn't want to go to Qiyuan Island, but it seemed a little late to make this request at this time.
"Brother Zhuo, Brother Zhuo?"
"Oh, why did Fellow Daoist Ling call Zhuo?"
Luo Hong heard Ling Yuling's shout and came back to his senses.
"Nothing, I just want to say goodbye to Brother Zhuo. We are going to the outer sea. I don't know when we will see each other again. Brother Zhuo will cherish this very much."
Ling Yuling didn't even ask what Luo Hong was thinking just now and said goodbye.
I want to stay for two more days, is that okay?
Luo Hong thought depressedly and said:
"We will meet each other if we are destined. Fellow Taoist Ling cherishes it. When we meet again, you and I will discuss the mystery of spiritual roots."
Ling Yuling helped him to this extent, and Luo Hong was embarrassed to make excessive demands. Anyway, after many years of wear and tear, the power of the mark was greatly reduced. As long as he was not within a hundred miles of Feng Xi, he would not be able to sense him.
The open sea is so big, as long as you are not too unlucky, there is no need to worry about this.
"Fellow Daoist Ling, thank you very much for your help. Please be sure to accept this pill. It will help you recover from your injuries."
At this time, Han Li felt Ling Yuling's feelings and took out a fiery red elixir. Its aura concentration was several times higher than the highly cherished Tianling elixir of the yellow-faced monk, and its aroma was astonishing.
Ling Yuling is a knowledgeable person, and she can tell at a glance that this elixir is extremely valuable. After taking it, she can not only recover from her injuries, but also improve her cultivation level.
I hesitated for a moment, wondering whether I should accept this important gift.
"Although Fellow Daoist Ling accepts this elixir, Brother Han's alchemy skills are rare in the world. Since it is his intention, please don't be polite."
Luo Hong chuckled lightly.
"Then I'll be ashamed of myself."
Ling Yuling took another look at the ordinary Han Li and took the elixir.
At this time, the teleportation array was opened, and Luo Hong and the two walked into it together. After a flash of white light, they disappeared.
Seeing that there were no errors in the teleportation, Ling Yuling put away the elixir under the greedy eyes of the two bald elders and walked out of the teleportation hall slowly.
Not long after she left, the bald elder started discussing with the people around him.
"Brother, what are the backgrounds of the two people teleported away? They are not ordinary people who can give away such precious pills!"
"Brother Gu, those who can make friends with Protector Ling are definitely not ordinary people. I just don't know if we will be blamed by the superiors for doing this?"
The old man named Qian said with a worried expression.
"What are you afraid of? Guardian Ling said that if anything happens, he will be free to bear the responsibility. The two of us are just following orders."
The bald elder said indifferently.
"Oh? Follow orders? Whose orders are you taking?"
Suddenly, a calm voice came from outside the hall, and the next moment an old man with starry eyebrows and sword-like eyes appeared in the hall. He was floating in mid-air, looking down at the two bald elders with sharp eyes.
"Uncle Zuo!"
After the two of them saw the face of the visitor clearly, they quickly bowed and saluted, and played drums uneasily.
"Did you two activate the teleportation array just now?"
Zuo Changqing asked expressionlessly.
"Exactly, but we are under the orders of Protector Ling, so activating the formation is not our original intention."
The old man surnamed Qian quickly answered, feeling something bad in his heart.
"Hmph! Is Protector Ling in charge of this place? Or does he have a warrant from the Two Saints?!"
Zuo Changqing's tone became even colder and he asked.
"This...but..."
The bald elder wanted to explain, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he realized that he really couldn't justify it in terms of the rules, but who would only do things according to the rules?
"For your first offense, you two will be punished by serving three years in prison and facing the wall for one month."
After Zuo Changqing punished the two of them, he turned around and floated out of the hall, muttering to himself:
"If Yu Ling continues to act like this, this Star Palace..."
After seeing the Supreme Master Yuanying leave, Gan and Gu immediately started to sigh, feeling extremely depressed and not knowing where to go to reason.
...
At the other end of the teleportation array, Luo Hong and Han Li appeared in a simple stone house that was common on Monster Island. Here, several monks were arguing with the star palace disciples in charge of the teleportation array in order to teleport back to the inner star sea.
This matter had nothing to do with them, so after just taking a look, they walked out of the stone house.
When he saw the prosperous scene on Qiyuan Island that was different from other monster islands, Han Li was immediately surprised. He grabbed a passing low-level monk and threw out several spiritual stones to question him.
After a few simple introductions, he could earn spiritual stones. Naturally, the man looked happy and immediately introduced the situation of Qiyuan Island in detail.
It turns out that because this island is close to a huge ocean abyss infested with many high-level monsters, it once provoked a war between various forces. Later, I don’t know what kind of deal these big forces reached, and an island in the gray area was built on Qiyuan Island. In Black Rock City, many shady businesses can be carried out blatantly here.
High-level monsters and gray transactions have created the prosperity of Qiyuan Island.
However, all monks who have been to this island will be ordered to keep silent by the powerful forces that control the island, and they are not allowed to disclose the situation of this island, so Qiyuan Island is not well-known in the inner star sea.
After sending away the passing low-level monk, Han Li said with satisfaction:
"Fellow Daoist Ling really didn't lie to us. There are even eighth-level monsters that appear here. I heard that these monsters can already turn into human form. I don't know how they are different from ordinary people."
You will soon meet several demon cultivators who transform themselves into demons.
After Luo Hong cursed, he and Old Mo Han wandered around Black Rock City. If he wanted to find the aura island, he had to buy a nearby sea map. The same was true for Mr. Han.
In addition, there is one more thing that needs to be done before parting with Old Demon Han.
