When the sky was dark, the caravan escorted by Zhou Yang and others finally got rid of the last wave of monsters.
They spent the entire night fighting.
At first, two fourth-level monsters and a group of flying monsters came to pursue them, delaying their departure. Later, when some land monsters also caught up, their breakout became difficult.
Although the "Six-Winged Flying Centipede" can fly, with such a heavy cargo on its back, its flying height is only more than 700 feet, and it can only fly more than a thousand miles in an hour. This height and speed are obviously not enough to get off the ground.
The attack range of those third-level monsters.
So the mission of Zhou Yang and others later changed from intercepting the chasing flying monsters to helping the "Six-Winged Flying Centipede" resist the spell attacks flying from the ground.
Of course, with the huge size of the "Six-Winged Centipede", they will definitely not be able to intercept all spells. They can only intercept the attacks of those third-level high-grade monsters that can cause serious injuries to them, and they can only rely on themselves for the rest of the attacks.
Let's fight hard.
At this time, the ability of this monster to "take a beating" became apparent. After enduring countless attacks along the way, the three "six-winged centipedes" were cured by the various spells and elixirs of the three trainers.
I carried it over, without any of the chain falling off halfway.
Even because they withstood many attacks, the guarding monks such as Zhou Yang who stood on their backs did not encounter many attacks from underground.
After chasing for thousands of miles all night long, the chasing land monsters finally became less and less. In the end, all the remaining monsters were killed by Zhou Yang and others.
"Thank you fellow Taoists for your overnight escort. Now that the pursuers have been eliminated, I will land and rest for a while to allow the three flying centipedes to recover their strength, while waiting for Senior Jia to catch up."
As the sun rose in the east, after some discussion among the monks from the Shenbingfang above the Flying Centipede, Hua Yuerong finally came forward to communicate with Zhou Yang and other escorting monks, and made the decision to land and rest.
Zhou Yang and the escorting monks were paid to do things. Naturally, no one would question or object to the employer's decision, as long as it did not involve their personal safety. So the three "six-winged centipedes" were quickly tamed.
Under the command of the beast master, they landed on a clearing in the mountains.
"Fellow Daoist Hua, the sect closest to Zhenyue Immortal City is Baishuihu Jingxuan Sect, but looking at the direction of our flight, it doesn't seem to be this route?"
While resting, Zhou Yang was meditating to recover his mana when he heard one of the two ninth-level monks in the escort asking Hua Yuerong about the escort route, which made him prick up his ears and listen.
.
"Young Daoist He doesn't seem to know that Jingxuan Sect has been forced to close the mountain to protect itself by the beast tide. If we go to their side at this time, wouldn't we be walking into the tiger's mouth and sending ourselves to the monsters?"
"So this time when we go to Yulong Kingdom, we will not take the Jingxuanzong road, but directly detour through Bitaoling and pass through the territory of Biyunmen."
Hua Yuerong glanced at the monk surnamed He who was asking questions, and then at Zhou Yang and others who were listening with their ears raised. She smiled slightly on her pretty face and spoke the caravan's march plan in a soft tone.
"I see, He understands. Thank you Taoist Hua for clearing up the confusion."
The monk surnamed He nodded with a sudden expression on his face and said nothing more. It seemed that he accepted the caravan's plan.
Seeing this, Zhou Yang also showed a thoughtful look on his face.
Since he is going to the Immortal Realm of Liuyun Continent, he has naturally studied the route from Zhenyue Immortal City to Xuanyang Immortal Sect and even the Beast Control Sect. He knows that starting from the location of Zhenyue Immortal City, he can only take the Huayuerong Route.
Speaking of these two roads, there will be immortal cultivators and markets along the way to provide supplies.
As for the true Immortal Realm of Liuyun Continent, it is actually 30,000 to 40,000 miles away from Zhenyue Immortal City!
This area of 30,000 to 40,000 miles is actually the buffer zone between the human monks and the monster beasts in the Duanyun Mountain Range.
Otherwise, if the human monks get too close and move the sect family's mountain gate directly to the Duanyun Mountain Range, they will force the sixth-order demon kings in the Duanyun Mountain Range to lead all the demon beasts out and fight with the entire Liuyun Continent.
The world of cultivators is desperate.
A buffer zone that is 30,000 to 40,000 miles long can only appear in this fairy world. When Zhou Yang saw the news about this, he was also amazed.
Moreover, he also knew that this buffer zone was gradually being developed by mortals and some low-level casual cultivators. Dong Jianping told him that the Dong family that would be developed in the future would place its headquarters in this area.
Inside.
This is actually a very helpless choice, because in the future, in the real Immortal Cultivation World of Liuyun Continent, all the forces have already finished staking out the land. A casual cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Period will go there to start a family, and only the members of various local Cultivation Clan families will
Resistance cannot be dealt with by a foundation-building monk.
On the other hand, when establishing a family in this buffer zone, there is no need to worry about this at all. The only thing to worry about is how to guard against the attack of the monster beasts that flow here from the Duanyun Mountains, and how to survive when the "tide of beasts" comes.
the lives of family members.
Next, after Zhou Yang and the others waited for about half an hour, Jia Yunzhen, who intercepted two fourth-level monsters, caught up with them.
Looking at the cold look on his face, Zhou Yang knew that the two fourth-level monsters must not have taken any advantage.
Speaking of which, except for the flash of strange color in Jia Yunzhen's eyes when he first saw him escorting the team, the two people behind him actually didn't say a word along the way, as if they didn't know each other at all.
"Senior Jia, Fei Centipede should rest for two or three hours to recover its strength. You should also have a cup of tea and rest to recover its mana."
Hua Yuerong went up and handed Jia Yunzhen a cup of freshly brewed Wanhua Valley's special scented tea with an attentive look on her face. Her attitude was obviously different from how she treated Zhou Yang and others.
When Zhou Yang and others saw this, no one had any objections. Everyone in Yuexian City knew about Jia Yun's true strength. He enjoyed superhuman treatment, and everyone seemed to take it for granted.
And Jia Yunzhen was not polite to Hua Yuerong, and he was not afraid that Hua Yuerong would do anything in the tea. He directly reached out to take the tea, raised his head and drank it in one gulp, then sat down cross-legged on the ground, holding a medium-grade spiritual stone, meditating and recovering.
Got mana.
Nearly half an hour passed in this way, and after Zhou Yang's mana had recovered to about 60%, Jia Yunzhen, who was meditating to recover his mana, suddenly opened his eyes, looked sharply in a certain direction and shouted coldly: "Who is spying over there?
?Get out!"
Before he shouted, a ray of silver light flew out of him and shot straight to a forest in the distance.
"Hahaha, Fellow Daoist Jia is indeed worthy of his reputation. I didn't expect that I would be discovered by Fellow Daoist even though I was hiding so far away!"
A burst of laughter came from the woods, and Jia Yunzhen's flying sword quickly returned to him in vain.
At this time, after hearing the warning, Zhou Yang and others also stopped and stood up, cheered up and looked towards the direction where the laughter came from.
Amidst the laughter, an old man in purple robe with white hair and childish face was seen flying out of the woods on a white cloud with a smile on his face, and entered everyone's sight.
Soaring in the clouds and riding in the fog?
When Zhou Yang saw the purple-robed old man flying out of the woods on clouds, he immediately thought of the golden elixir monk's signature magical power, "Soaring into the Clouds and Riding on the Mist".
But after he took a closer look at the white cloud under the purple-robed old man's feet, he breathed a sigh of relief and realized that it was not the magical power of "Soaring into the Clouds and Riding the Mist", but a strange fourth-level flying magic weapon.
This kind of flying magic weapon that looks like a white cloud may not necessarily fly faster than the flying sword of the monks in the Zifu period, but the bonus in terms of face is far less than that of the flying sword.
If nothing else, let’s just say that when Zhou Yang and others saw the purple-robed old man flying over the clouds, they immediately thought he was a golden elixir-level monk in front of them.
Comparative?
Compared to them who were quite surprised, Jia Yunzhen was extremely calm throughout the whole process. When he saw the purple-robed old man flying over the clouds, his face suddenly darkened and he said coldly: "It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Zhu from Purple Star Pavilion. Why, Fellow Daoist Zhu is not here."
The Zhenyue Immortal City is located in the Purple Star Pavilion, and what are you doing sneakily following the caravan from the Shenbingfang? Could it be that the business of the Purple Star Pavilion has been bad recently, and Daoist Zhu wants to change his career to that business without capital?"
Zixing Pavilion? It seems to be a shop selling elixirs in Zhenyuexian City.
When Zhou Yang heard Jia Yunzhen's words, his heart moved, and the name of this store immediately came to mind. He had gone to this store to buy a healing elixir for his father Zhou Xuanhao.
However, what he never expected was that after hearing Jia Yunzhen's words, the purple-robed old man surnamed Zhu turned his eyes, suddenly fell on him, and said in a low tone: "Jia Taoist friend is joking, giving Zhu the courage to do so."
, and I don’t dare to take action against the caravan from Shenbingfang. Zhu came here all because of this kid. He has something that Zhu must take!"
Zhou Yang's expression changed instantly.
He looked at the purple-robed old man in shock, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Why did the senior say this? The junior has never met the senior, so how can there be anything that the senior values ?"
"Oh, really?"
The purple-robed old man looked at him coldly, and his voice suddenly changed.
When Zhou Yang heard this voice, his heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but exclaimed again: "It turns out to be you!"
Immortal cultivators have a good memory, not to mention that it has only been more than two years since that underground exchange meeting. How could Zhou Yang fail to recognize the voice of the Zifuqi alchemist who made a deal with him that day.
But what he didn't expect at all was that more than two years later, the old man in purple robe still remembered that incident, and he didn't know what means to find out his identity, and chased him here.
In fact, it wasn't just him. Jia Yunzhen also recognized the identity of the purple-robed old man after hearing his voice just now, and also figured out why he was looking for Zhou Yang.
Zhou Yang also slightly changed his voice to cover it up that day, so he never recognized Zhou Yang as the person with whom he had exchanged secret techniques. But when the purple-robed old man said it just now, of course he understood it immediately.
For a moment, the way he looked at Zhou Yang became strange.
When the old man in purple robe saw this scene, he felt happy. He was afraid that Jia Yun would really protect Zhou Yang, and in that case he might not be Jia Yun's real opponent.
Now seeing that Jia Yunzhen seems to be dissatisfied with Zhou Yang, how can he be unhappy?
His eyes were slightly cold, and he looked at Zhou Yang coldly and issued an ultimatum: "Very good, it seems that you have already remembered, then should you hand over the storage bag yourself, or should I do it myself?"
Harvested from your corpse?"
When Zhou Yang heard what he said, his heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
He looked at Jia Yunzhen, then at Hua Yuerong and several other monks from the Shenweifang. As a result, these people either had expressionless faces and didn't know what they were thinking, or they gave him a helpless look, or simply looked at him.
Turn your head away from him.
This made him feel cold, knowing that it would be difficult for him to get help from these people.
But if you want him to hand over the storage bag like this, you might as well kill him directly!
So after he gritted his teeth, his face became grim, and he couldn't help but look at the purple-robed old man and shouted angrily: "Senior, aren't you afraid of making people laugh when you do this? The things that were exchanged in the underground exchange meeting were later tried to kill people and seize the treasure to get back.
How is this behavior different from what a demonic monk does? And what would Senior Tian Wenxuan, who held the underground exchange meeting, think if he knew about this behavior?"
"You are such a sharp-tongued junior. It's your turn to teach me how to do things. You still dare to use fellow Taoist Tian to pressure me. You really don't know how to write the word "death"!"
The purple-robed old man was furious and was completely angered by Zhou Yang's three consecutive questions.
An angry look flashed across his face, then he raised his hand and launched a red flying sword towards Zhou Yang, intending to kill someone at the slightest disagreement.
Due to the suddenness of his attack, Zhou Yang did not expect that he would be so decisive. For a moment, he had no time to dodge or resist. He could only watch the red flying sword flying toward his neck, his eyes full of unwillingness and surprise.
The color of anger.
However, at this moment, a silver flying sword came in front of the crimson flying sword and knocked it aside on the spot. However, Jia Yunzhen suddenly took action.
When the old man in purple robe saw this, he was shocked and angry, and shouted quickly: "Fellow Daoist Jia, what do you mean by this? Do you really want to fight with me for this kid?"
Jia Yunzhen ignored him, just looked at Zhou Yang and asked coldly: "Boy, have you learned my sword skills?"
Zhou Yang had just saved his life at the gate of hell, and now he was sweating coldly and secretly rejoicing. After hearing Jia Yunzhen's question, his face was slightly stunned, and he had no idea why the other party asked.
But thinking that Jia Yunzhen had saved his life just now, and that the current situation seemed to be no worse, no matter how bad it was, it was like a broken pot, so he nodded without any concealment and replied: "After half a year of hard training, this junior, by luck,
I have learned the first level of the sword technique, and now I am studying the [Four Elephants Sword Formation for Subduing Demons]!"
Hearing his words, Jia Yunzhen was shocked and couldn't help blurting out: "Is this true?"
After finishing speaking, he seemed to realize that he had made a mistake, and nodded again: "Not bad, not bad, I have mastered the first level of sword tactics so quickly, and also learned three basic sword formation changes so quickly. It seems that I
This sword technique fell into your hands and was not buried!"
Then he turned his eyes, looked at the purple-robed old man coldly and said: "You Zhu Ziyu are shameless, I still want the things exchanged at the exchange meeting, even if you really suffered any loss, it was because of your own mistakes.
What's wrong with others? This kid has learned my sword skills. I can't watch him beheaded by you in front of me. You can either go back to Zhenyue Immortal City now, or you can try first to see if the sword in my hand is sharp?
"
"you……"
The purple-robed old man suddenly became angry. He pointed at Jia Yunzhen with shame and anger and shouted angrily: "Jia Yunzhen, do you really want to make an enemy of me and the Purple Star Sect for the sake of a boy in the Foundation Establishment stage who has no idea of his origin?"
