"Huh, it's really dangerous! If it weren't for this [Black Gold Armor] made of gold-eating rat skin to protect me, I might have been careless in Jingzhou today and capsized the boat in the gutter!"
On the barren mountain, Zhou Yang stood up from the ground with a look of joy on his face. He looked at the corpse of the bandit who had died on the ground with a pale face and shouted that he was lucky.
What happened just now really taught him a vivid lesson. Never think that everything will be fine just because the enemy has fallen to the ground.
Immortal cultivators have strong vitality, and all kinds of magical skills and secrets in the world of immortality are endless. If you don't chop off the enemy's head and beat the enemy to death, you can't think that you have the last laugh.
Just like just now, if he hadn't been wearing the "Black Golden Armor" magic weapon made from the skin of a gold-eating rat and never took it off ever since he got it, the bloody arrow just now would have been killed long ago.
He was shot to the core.
And even with the defense of this second-level top-grade defensive inner armor, he was hit by a blood arrow at such a close distance. He still felt severe pain in his chest, and he probably suffered serious internal injuries.
It would be a long night and many dreams, so Zhou Yang did not dare to stay here any longer. After taking a healing elixir on the spot, he dragged his injured body and left the barren mountain with the loot.
Because he was worried about the foundation-building bandits patrolling the sky, Zhou Yang did not dare to use any spells to support himself after leaving the barren mountains. He relied solely on his own physical strength to move forward in the barren mountains and ridges.
Although this made him move as slow as a turtle, it did have a great hiding effect. Several sword lights flew through the sky nearby, but he was not found so close.
After walking like this for several days, Zhou Yang's internal injuries gradually recovered to the majority under the influence of the elixir, and others had already reached the famous "Baisha River" on the Baisha River oasis.
Walking along the Baisha River and using the water to hide your breath was the advice given to Zhou Yang by his adoptive mother Zhou Xuanyu when he was in Fangshi.
Most of the immortal cultivators in the boundless sand sea do not like to practice and live in places with abundant water spirit energy due to their spiritual root attributes and skills, and they are not good at water escape techniques.
In this regard, even monks in the foundation building stage are no different from those in the Qi training stage.
When Zhou Xuanyu asked Zhou Yang to escape with the help of the water of Baisha River, he specially gave him several "Water Escape Technique" talismans.
"Water Escape Technique" and "Earth Escape Technique" are both only second-level low-grade spells. However, in the boundless sand sea, it is difficult to find even a handful of people among a hundred monks to practice this spell, because in the sand sea
Among them, this spell basically has no use.
Only a talisman maker like Zhou Xuanyu, in order to enrich the types of talismans he can draw, would deliberately learn some spells that do not match the attributes of his own skills. As the Five Elements Escape Technique is the most commonly used spell among immortal cultivators, she will of course make it the first choice.
It's not surprising that he always has a few "Water Escape Technique" talismans on his body.
But these "Water Escape" talismans that usually accumulated in her storage bag and ate dust were put to great use today.
After Zhou Yang came to the Baisha River, he took out a blue "Water Escape" talisman and slapped it on his body. His body quickly merged into the river and escaped to the lower reaches of the Baisha River with the help of the flowing water.
While escaping with the aid of the river, Zhou Yang sensed the powerful auras of the Foundation Establishment monks flying over the river several times. He knew that these were the Foundation Establishment bandits who had not yet left the Baisha River Oasis.
Think about it, in addition to the Chen family's Baituoling ancestral land and Jinxiashanfang City, there are several other foundation-building families in the Baishahe Oasis.
When the foundation-building monks of the Chen family in Baituoling were being watched by the Zifu monks, more than a dozen foundation-building bandits acted together. Basically no foundation-building family could block these attacks.
When Patriarch Chen Yaohui and others went to hunt the fourth-order monsters, they would definitely not be able to come back without more than half a month. After all, the fourth-order monsters were basically in the depths of the desert far away from the oasis, otherwise they would have been killed by the cultivators long ago.
.
In other words, for at least half a month, these bandits can basically walk sideways on the Baisha River oasis.
Zhou Yang is now convinced that several foundation-building families in the Baisha River Oasis may have followed in the footsteps of Jinxia Mountain. Otherwise, the foundation-building monks among the bandits would not be so scattered throughout the oasis to hunt down these fugitives.
monk.
"I don't know how my adoptive mother and the others are doing. I hope everyone can survive this crisis safely!"
In a certain forest along the Baisha River, Zhou Yang was hiding in an underground cave dozens of meters beneath the forest. He couldn't help but worry about the other monks of the Zhou family.
Now, he is basically safe. As long as he hides here without leaving for half a month, unless the monks in the foundation building period fall into the woods and use all their strength to let go of their spiritual consciousness to explore underground, it will be impossible.
Someone found him hiding tens of meters underground.
Considering that this forest is not a place where spiritual veins gather, this probability can basically be ignored.
In the case of his own safety, what Zhou Yang is most worried about is of course his adoptive mother Zhou Xuanyu and his brothers and sisters in the clan.
With his wealth and means, he almost died at the hands of bandits during his escape, not to mention his brothers and sisters who had just reached the middle stage of Qi training.
It's a pity that all he can do now is pray, and he can't do anything else.
Nothing can be done, literally.
Because he was afraid that the spiritual energy fluctuations produced when practicing magic would expose his existence, Zhou Yang even stopped his daily magic practice. It was only at this time that he had time to check the trophies he got after killing three bandits.
After killing three bandits, Zhou Yang found a total of seven storage bags from the three of them. Two more storage bags were broken during the battle. The contents inside could no longer be taken out, so he did not pick them up.
.
Of the seven storage bags found, four had a capacity of one foot, and the remaining three also had storage spaces of five feet.
In these storage bags, Zhou Yang found a large number of spiritual stones, more than 1,600 pieces in total. Apparently these spiritual stones were robbed by three bandits.
In addition, he also found more than a dozen second-level low-grade and medium-grade magical instruments in the storage bag. Most of the magical instruments were more or less damaged. Needless to say, these magical instruments must have been stolen.
In addition to spiritual stones and magic weapons, the most things Zhou Yang found were not elixirs, talismans or spiritual materials, but hundreds of various books and a dozen precious jade slips.
These books and the jade slips recording precious knowledge all have a mark that he is very familiar with, which is Huangshamen's external logo, a yellow gourd logo.
Most people may not know why Huangshamen uses a yellow gourd as the sect logo, but Zhou Yang knows from the records left by Zhou Yuquan, the ancestor of the Zhou family, that Huangshamen has an extremely powerful inherited magic weapon called the "Sacred Sand Gourd".
", the divine sand released by this magic weapon can kill even the golden elixir stage monks, it is extremely powerful.
A while ago, in order to study the jet black ore, Zhou Yang went to Huangshamen's store in Jinshafang City to buy some books. Now when he saw these classics in the bandit's storage bag, he knew that this must be the case.
It's the stuff from the shop in Huangshamen.
But he didn't expect that these sand bandits would be so bold, even daring to steal Huang Shamen's belongings!
Although Huang Shamen's shop in Jinshafang City is only managed by some Qi-training stage disciples, it is also Huang Shamen's property. Generally, foundation-building stage monks would not dare to put on any airs when entering that shop.
"Generally speaking, although sand bandits do all kinds of evil, they are still wary of Huang Shamen, a big sect in the boundless sand sea, and they will not touch Huang Shamen's things easily."
"This time these sand bandits broke this rule. It seems that someone gave them the confidence not to fear the revenge of the yellow monk!"
Zhou Yang's heart sank, and he suddenly realized that this bandit attack might not be as simple as robbery.
Think about it, although bandits usually commit crimes in gangs, they usually form small gangs of several or a dozen bandits, and there is basically no connection between the various gangs of bandits.
However, this time, not only the extremely rare Sand Bandits in the Foundation Establishment Stage suddenly appeared, more than a dozen people appeared, but the ordinary Qi Training Stage Sand Bandits also showed up with more than a hundred people.
It is not a simple matter to organize so many bandits together, and it is not something that can be done by a high level of cultivation. It must have sufficient manpower and well-connected information channels to achieve it.
"And whether those foundation-building monks are real bandits or not is a matter of debate!"
Zhou Yang recalled the performance of the foundation-building bandits during the battle at Jinxia Mountain, and his heart became a little more gloomy.
He had a feeling that this attack on the oasis would not end so simply. The world of immortality near the Baisha River oasis might not be as peaceful as before in the future.
Unfortunately, due to the lack of information, even if he guessed something, he did not dare to draw random conclusions in the absence of actual information verification. He could only suppress these ideas temporarily and leave them for later verification.
However, with the hundreds of books collected from the bandit's storage bag, Zhou Yang didn't feel uncomfortable in the next half month.
These classics released by Huangshamen for sale are of course not precious items. They are all low-level exercises, spells and basic weapon refining techniques, alchemy techniques, talisman makers, spirit planters, animal tamers, etc.
Introductory knowledge of cultivating immortals and hundreds of arts.
These basic introductory knowledge of cultivating immortals and low-level skills are all available in the Zhou family's scripture cave, so there is no need for Zhou Yang to read them.
But the dozen or so jade slips were very attractive to him. These jade slips were all travel notes and autobiographies written by monks in the Foundation Stage and even the Zifu Stage who traveled to the world of immortality. They recorded the local customs and various customs in various places in the world of immortality.
Strange monsters, treasures, and legends about forbidden places are the things he likes to read the most.
In addition, Zhou Yang also found the secret method of "Blood Arrow" that the bandit used to plot against him in a black jade slip.
This secret method is actually related to the legendary demon monks. It is a secret method of the blood demon cultivator!
