On a solitary peak, on the edge of a cliff, Zhou Yang stood with his hands behind his back.
He looked into the distance with his eyes, as if he could still see the stunning face of that stunning beauty across many mountains and rivers.
At this time, three years have passed since the opening of the Kunxu Realm. Others have returned to the "Linghuan Realm" and are currently in an unknown mountain peak in the Immortal Cultivation Realm in the far west.
And he looked into the distance, still recalling the last few months in Kunxu Realm in his mind.
After leaving the "Holy Infant Valley", he and Jiang Fengxian spent the remaining time in a temporary cave.
It was a wonderful time, a wonderful time that Zhou Yang should remember throughout his life.
Looking back on the good times of the past few months, Zhou Yang raised his palm to the tip of his nose and sniffed, and it seemed that he could still smell the lingering fragrance of the beautiful woman on his palm.
It's a pity that the beauty has gone far away, and this lingering fragrance will dissipate soon.
I don’t know when we will see each other next time.
"If love lasts for a long time, how can we live together day and night?"
"Fengxian, wait for me, I will definitely meet you again as soon as possible!"
"Next time we meet, I will definitely not let you run away so easily again!"
Beside the lonely cliff, Zhou Yang raised his hand and held it in vain, as if he wanted to hold the beauty far away in his hand.
He had already prepared for Jiang Fengxian's departure. Although he felt a little sad at this moment, he was not surprised.
When the Kunxu Realm is opened, monks from all over the "Linghuan Realm" can be teleported into it. When they leave, they can also be teleported back to various places in the "Linghuan Realm" according to the monks' wishes.
Zhou Yang originally wanted to return to the Yunzhou Immortal Realm with Jiang Fengxian, so that he could drop by the Xuanyang Immortal Sect for an appointment.
However, Jiang Fengxian did not choose to return to the Yunzhou Cultivation World. Instead, he stepped into the teleportation array to reach the Tiannan Continent Cultivation World. He said that he wanted to take this opportunity to travel to the Tiannan Continent Cultivation World, and then the Tiannan Continent Cultivation World transferred to Donghua.
The world of immortality cultivation in Liuyun Continent will eventually return to the world of immortality cultivation in Liuyun Continent.
Traveling through the two realms of cultivation in this way will definitely take dozens or hundreds of hours, or even longer.
Zhou Yang still has a lot of things to do, and of course he has no time to follow Jiang Fengxian, even though he really wants to travel around the world with Mei Xiaoyao.
And without Jiang Fengxian by his side, Zhou Yang had no intention of returning to the world of immortal cultivation in Yunzhou.
Lu Xuanji's original agreement with him was that after leaving Kunxu Realm, he would arrive at Xuanyang Immortal Sect within ten years.
In view of the unpredictable life and death of this trip, he felt that before he went to the appointment, it was necessary to return to his family in the Immortal Realm of the Boundless Sand Sea and deposit the harvest he gained from the Kunxu Realm into the family secret treasury. At the same time, he and his Taoist companion Xiao
Ying and others explained.
Unfortunately, those teleportation circles in the Kunxu Realm only lead to certain areas of large-scale immortal realms such as the Liuyun Continent Cultivation Realm, the Extreme West Land Cultivation Realm, and the Tiannan Continent Cultivation Realm. They do not include the Boundless Sand Sea Cultivation Realm.
This is actually a small world of immortality attached to the world of cultivation in the far west.
Therefore, Zhou Yang could only choose the Immortal Cultivation World in the far west as the place to return. After all, returning to the Immortal Cultivation World in the Boundless Sand Sea from here is at least easier than crossing the Duanyun Mountains from the Liuyun Continent Cultivation World.
What's more, he is still a little worried about the Zhou family members in Cangyuan Immortal City, and the ghost servant Xu Song who is still in the far west.
More than a month later, Zhou Yang, who had hidden his identity, returned to the outside of Cangyuan Immortal City.
Out of some fear, he did not enter the fairy city, but went directly to the Zhou family's Lingshan Mountain outside the city.
What reassured him was that, after more than ten years, the Zhou family here had not changed much except that the number of monks was more than before.
This shows that Guo Jinhong does not know his true relationship with the Zhou family, and did not take action to eliminate the Zhou family because he colluded with the Tiansha Corpse King to severely damage them.
Of course, it is also possible that Guo Jinhong discovered his relationship with the Zhou family, but deliberately kept the Zhou family to bait him.
Therefore, he did not contact the Zhou family directly, but found a casual cultivator during his Qi training period, put several fourth-level demon pills, some elixirs, and magic weapons into a storage bag, and asked them to be transferred to the Zhou family.
In the hands of the owner.
With his skills as a Golden Core cultivator, he naturally had a way to make the casual cultivator obey and not dare to hack the things he gave to the Zhou family.
As long as Zhou Tongyue or Li Hong get the storage bag, they will naturally know that he is out of trouble, and then they can use the things he gives them to develop and grow the Zhou family here.
I just don’t know if the two of them will have the chance to meet him again in this life.
But Zhou Yang believed that if he met these two people again in this life, he would have the confidence not to be afraid of Guo Jinhong's revenge.
After visiting the current situation of the Zhou family, Zhou Yang left Cangyuan Immortal City without any hesitation and went to the "Falling Demon Valley" in the rock wasteland.
The "Netherworld Contract" signed with the ghost servant Xu Song allowed him to feel that Xu Song was still cultivating in the "Valley of Fallen Demons" and had never left.
Of course, this kind of induction is two-way. When he sensed that Xu Song was still in the "Falling Demon Valley", Xu Song also learned about his return through this kind of induction.
Therefore, when he arrived outside the "Falling Demon Valley", Xu Song had already come out to wait for him.
"Congratulations to fellow Taoist Zhou for forming the golden elixir, and you can look forward to the great path!"
As soon as they met, Xu Song congratulated Zhou Yang with a surprised look on his face. The smile on his face was not fake at all and was very sincere.
"We haven't seen each other for many years. It's gratifying that Senior Xu has made further progress in his cultivation!"
Zhou Yang looked at Xu Song with a smile on his face and smiled lightly, not caring whether his words were sincere.
He didn't trust Xu Song very much, which can be seen from the fact that he didn't let Xu Song accompany Xiao Ying and others back to the boundless sand sea to cultivate immortality.
Xu Song himself knew this very well.
The two of them signed a "netherworld contract" to become master and servant, which was just an act of each taking what they needed under the circumstances.
Zhou Yang was on guard against Xu Song, but how could Xu Song ever be honest with him?
But that was all in the past. Now that Zhou Yang has formed a golden elixir, Xu Song, a mere ghost cultivator on the second level of the golden elixir, is no longer in his eyes. Even without the constraints of the "Netherworld Blood Contract", he is still in his hands.
Can't afford any waves.
Xu Song knew this very well, so when he met Zhou Yang this time, his attitude was much more respectful and honest.
Hearing Zhou Yang's words at this time, he quickly waved his hands and said: "Fellow Taoist, I call you a senior, but I'm sorry. Since you have already formed a golden elixir, how can I be so virtuous and capable as to dare to call myself a senior in front of my fellow Taoist?"
?I am honored to be called a fellow Taoist!"
"Okay then, from now on Zhou will call Xu Daoyou as fellow Taoist."
Zhou Yang nodded slightly and readily accepted his suggestion.
In the past, Xu Song was called "Senior" because his cultivation level was lower than that of his counterpart, and he also had many things he wanted from him.
Now that his cultivation is at the same level as the other party, and he is the leader of the contract, there is of course no need to call him senior anymore.
Xu Song took the initiative to propose this, which shows that he is very self-aware, in other words, he is very knowledgeable.
Zhou Yang likes people with this kind of understanding. Talking to such people will not be tiring.
So next, everyone and the ghost had a tacit understanding and did not mention where Zhou Yang had been over the years, but just discussed the matter of returning to the boundless sand sea to cultivate immortality.
Zhou Yang didn't want to talk to Xu Song about the Kunxu Realm because it involved many of his secrets.
Although Xu Song guessed that he escaped through the "Kunxu Order" and was curious about what he had gained in the Kunxu Realm, he did not dare to mention it proactively to avoid upsetting him.
Let’s talk about returning to the boundless sand sea to cultivate immortality.
Zhou Yang does not have a map of the journey back to the boundless sand sea to cultivate immortality from the far west.
But before he had a falling out with Guo Jinhong, he had already learned about the "Death Sand Sea".
So now he only needs to follow the rocky wasteland all the way east into the boundless sand sea, and then cross the "death sand sea", and he will naturally reach the boundless sand sea to cultivate immortality.
The "Death Sand Sea" is very famous in the boundless sand sea cultivation world. It is known as the tomb of the Golden Core monks. The "black sand storm" and "sandworm" monsters raging in it are all things that can bury the Golden Core monks.
.
However, Zhou Yang dared to choose to return to the Immortal Cultivation World from the Far West to the Boundless Sand Sea, so he naturally had his own support.
Let's talk about monsters like "Sandworm" first. Although this kind of monster is ferocious, the "Taiyin Zanpakutō" and "Qianyang True Fire" magical powers in Zhou Yang's hand are sharp weapons against such huge monsters.
If that doesn't work, he still has the "Xuanyang Zixiao Divine Thunder" jade talisman presented to him by Lu Xuanji.
Although natural disasters like the "Black Sand Storm" are terrifying, with Zhou Yang's powerful body, the chance of surviving it is still very high.
Of course, all these are just speculations in his own mind. The facts will only become clear after he has personally verified and experienced them.
Ten years may seem like a long time, but for the Golden Core Stage monks, it is just a short period of retreat.
Therefore, Zhou Yang did not stay much in the far west. After joining Xu Song, he plunged directly into the boundless sea of sand.
In order to preserve his magic power, he was alternately carried by the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle and Xu Song along the way. Both of them were very fast and could fly seventy or eighty thousand miles in one day.
Therefore, in less than a month, Zhou Yang saw the famous "Sand Sea of Death".
Different from the yellow sand that is everywhere in the boundless sand sea, the sand in the "Death Sand Sea" is a kind of black sand. This black sand has a high iron content, and its temperature is much higher than ordinary yellow sand in the sun.
And I don't know if it was an illusion, but after Zhou Yang entered the "Death Sand Sea", he felt that he consumed more mana when flying than outside.
"No, it's not an illusion, it's true!"
His expression changed slightly, and he quickly confirmed that what he felt was not an illusion.
And he didn't know this information before.
Then he recalled the records he had read about the "Sea of Death Sand" and found no such records.
Then the situation is obvious. Either this change did not occur in the previous "Death Sand Sea", or the monks who left records deliberately concealed this situation.
As for Zhou Yang, he prefers the former!
"I hate this uncontrolled change!"
He cursed in a low voice, but knew that he had no way out and could only walk to the dark side.
…………
"Who is it? Who dares to erase the mark of the soul that I left in the [Netherworld Coffin]?"
"Damn little thief, don't let me catch you, otherwise you will be unable to survive or die!"
boom!
In a certain underground mausoleum, a black sarcophagus suddenly exploded into countless pieces, revealing the ferocious body of the Heavenly Evil Corpse King inside.
Ever since Zhou Yang took away his enlightenment treasure "Netherworld Mysterious Coffin", it has been waiting for the day when Kunxu Realm is closed.
As long as the Kunxu Realm is closed and Zhou Yang returns to the "Linghuan Realm" with the "Netherworld Mysterious Coffin", it can sense the location of the treasure through the mark it left on the treasure, and then kill it and take the treasure back.
However, what it never expected was that more than three years later, it did not wait for the "Netherworld Coffin" to reappear, but instead waited for the result that the imprint of its soul left in the treasure was forcibly erased!
The Divine Soul Brand is different from the Divine Consciousness Brand. When the Divine Soul Brand is planted, the practitioner needs to separate part of his own soul to stay in the treasure.
This kind of divine soul brand makes the connection between spiritual practice and treasures much stronger than the spiritual brand. Even from a long distance, a strong connection can be established with the treasure.
And even if the treasure is obtained, it will not be easily refined.
However, this move has advantages and disadvantages. Once the mark of the soul is forcibly erased, the practitioner will lose this part of the soul forever, and the loss is not small.
Even a late-stage Nascent Soul demon cultivator as powerful as Tiansha Corpse King, when the mark of the soul left in the "Netherworld Xuan Coffin" was forcibly erased by the black-robed man, he suffered a lot of damage and couldn't help but get angry.
Gaffe roared.
Of course it has reason to be angry. The "Netherworld Coffin" is related to its chance of enlightenment. Without the help of this treasure, its chance of advancing to the Tribulation Stage is infinitely close to zero!
If someone's path is cut off, everyone will be furious, let alone a demon like the Heavenly Evil Corpse King.
"If you dare to block my path, I will search the entire [Linghuan Realm] and I will definitely find you, a little thief!"
The Corpse King roared and swore, and the ground where the mausoleum was located suddenly cracked, and countless black evil spirits poured out.
This change immediately attracted the attention of the monks within hundreds of miles nearby. Those brave monks rushed over to check the situation. In the end, they all became victims of the corpse king's anger, and were eaten alive without leaving any bones.
.
Zhou Yang, who was far away in the boundless sea of sand, naturally didn't know that the man in black robe had done him a big favor.
He is also in trouble now.
Ever since he entered the "Sea of Death Sand" and discovered that the situation had changed, he had been very energetic along the way and did not dare to relax for a moment.
But the "Sea of Death Sand" can leave a great reputation, so naturally it is not possible to pass through it unscathed just by being vigilant.
On the first day Zhou Yang entered the black desert, he encountered the famous "Black Sand Storm".
The "Black Sand Storm" at that time was not particularly big in terms of scale, it was just a medium-sized storm at most.
However, it suddenly formed without any warning, but it did not give Zhou Yang a chance to avoid it, and directly involved him.
Being in the "black sand storm", Zhou Yang finally understood why the senior monks were so awe-inspiring when talking about this kind of natural disaster.
After he practiced the "Taixu Divine Refining Technique", his spiritual consciousness was as powerful as that of a ninth-level golden elixir monk. However, in the storm, he could not even separate his spiritual consciousness from the body. At the same time, he used the "Fire-Living Golden Eyes"
"Even with magical power, the line of sight cannot extend beyond three feet.
That feeling of loneliness, as if one has been abandoned by the whole world, can easily make people despair and give up resistance.
Zhou Yang was not desperate, but he was definitely not feeling well.
With his powerful body, he can survive in the storm much more easily than ordinary Golden Core monks.
But although the power of the storm could not strangle him, it also put him under tremendous pressure. His body felt like it was about to be torn apart. He had to use mana to defend himself every once in a while to give his body some rest time.
By the time he survived the "black sand storm" and saw the light of day again, it was already two days later, and his location had deviated from the original place by an unknown distance.
After more than a month, he experienced four more "black sand storms". In two of them, he sensed the signs in advance and avoided the center of the storm in time. However, the other two storms did not appear like the first storm.
Any signs.
At the same time, for the first time in more than a month, he saw the "Sandworm", a famous fifth-level monster in the boundless sea of sand.
This kind of monster is over a thousand feet long and is proficient in a variety of earth magic powers. What's more, it is naturally good at hiding its aura. It is extremely difficult to be discovered by monks when it is deep underground in the sand sea.
However, by choosing Zhou Yang as food, "Sandworm" obviously hit a brick wall.
Its hard outer skin with strong defensive power can be broken in front of the unparalleled "Taiyin Zanpakutō" with one cut. The extremely cold and freezing power attached to the blade directly destroys most of the "Sandworm's" powerful self-healing ability.
.
And then the blazing golden flame that fell on its knife wound made the "sandworm" experience the taste of ice and fire.
It's just that although Zhou Yang had the absolute upper hand in the battle, the sand sea was still the territory of the "sand worms". In the end, he was unable to leave behind the seriously injured "sand worms" and let them escape deep underground.
Neither the "Black Sand Storm" nor the "Sand Worm" could stop Zhou Yang, and the "Death Sand Sea" could be said to have been stepped on by him. Logically speaking, his trip should be over.
He originally thought so, until he met...
"Hell, where did these monsters come from? How come there are so many monsters in the boundless sea of sand!"
In the black sand sea, golden flames rose all over Zhou Yang's body, and he kept throwing out balls of flames to burn all kinds of monsters that rushed towards him. He looked at the direction of the monsters with an extremely ugly face and cursed.
About three days ago, a large "black sand storm" suddenly broke out and involved him.
When he finally survived this fatal storm and saw the light of day again, he found that the place he was in was filled with the scent of monsters.
And after he used his "Qianyang True Fire" to kill several strange beast-shaped monsters, suddenly a large number of monsters gathered towards him from all directions and attacked him crazily.
"If you want to uncover the mystery, I'm afraid you have to go in the direction where these monsters came from to check. Xu has a hunch that the appearance of so many strange monsters is definitely not related to some experiments conducted by demon cultivators here.
We could be in big trouble!"
In the mid-air several hundred feet away from Zhou Yang, Xu Song stared at the direction of the distant monster and spoke out his suggestions in a deep voice.
He was a ghost cultivator, and he didn't take action against those monsters, so the monsters didn't take action against him.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that the monsters attacking Zhou Yang are generally of low level and lack IQ. If a fifth-level monster appeared, Xu Song would not be allowed to watch the battle so easily.
After Zhou Yang listened to Xu Song's words, he pondered for a moment, then looked at him solemnly and said: "Zhou seems to be targeted by these monsters now. If he moves forward rashly, he may easily cause some bad changes.
As long as you have trouble, fellow Taoist Xu will do it for you!"
