Qu Ke and Shen Zening still hadn't recovered from the shock just now. They looked in a daze and didn't know what they were thinking. From time to time, they glanced at Lin Shen with strange eyes.
Lin Shen seemed unaware and looked around at the exquisite and elegant layout in the cabin with great interest.
After he estimated that Qu Ke and Shen Zening had recovered quickly, he came to sit across from them and said with a smile across the coffee table:
"Two senior brothers, I came in a hurry this time, and I still know little about the Xuandu Conference. Can you two senior brothers explain to me the specific situation?"
"Why not?"
Qu Ke came back to his senses and smiled immediately.
After seeing Lin Shen's strength, he became more and more optimistic about Junior Brother Lin's future, and he was even more interested in making friends with him. If he had this opportunity to get closer, he would naturally not refuse it.
After thinking about it for a moment, Qu Ke slowly spoke.
"The Xuandu Conference has been held in Xuandu Mountain, fifty miles west of Muzu City. This strange mountain is said to be rich in spiritual energy and is extremely suitable for the growth of wood, natural materials and earthly treasures. There are even many plant elves living there, and Xuanhua
The liquid comes from one of the plant fairies called Xuanhua Wood Spirit!"
Xuanhua Wood Spirit!
Lin Shen's expression moved slightly.
Strictly speaking, plant elves are also a type of demon clan.
It's just that compared to ordinary monsters, it's more difficult for plant elves to enlighten their spiritual wisdom or survive human tribulations.
It often takes hundreds or even thousands of years for a spiritual grass or tree to have the slightest chance of awakening spiritual wisdom.
After awakening spiritual wisdom, it often takes hundreds or even thousands of years of practice before it is possible to survive human tribulations and enter the immortal path.
These are still spiritual grasses and spiritual trees. It is hundreds of times more difficult for ordinary plants and trees to awaken their spiritual wisdom and survive human calamities!
The only advantage that plant elves have over ordinary demons is that their lifespans are longer.
Of course, this does not mean that they have enough time to practice.
Plants and trees that have become refined are great tonics for practitioners—whether they are human or demon practitioners!
Therefore, many plant elves are often captured by practitioners to refine elixirs and medicines before they have time to grow up.
Those who were lucky enough not to be arrested spent most of their time dodging and escaping. If they were not careful, their cultivation careers would end.
It can be said that among the many monster races, the grass elves are one of the most miserable races!
"The Xuandu Conference is held once every three years, and each session lasts for one month. Only practitioners who hold the Xuandu Order can enter."
"Once the conference starts, the mountain guarding formation will be closed. People on Xuandu Mountain, even monks, cannot leave. During this period, everything the participants gain on the mountain will be their own. Xuanling Sect will not
put one's oar in."
After that, Qu Ke told some stories about the Xuandu Conference.
Most of the information was obtained from senior brothers and sisters who participated in the Xuandu Conference in previous years.
Although not all of them were useful, Lin Shen still listened with interest.
After chatting for a long time, the three of them returned to their rooms until nightfall.
The journey was boring, so the three of them spent a few hours every day chatting, and spent the rest of the time practicing in their rooms.
Lin Shen's current cultivation has stagnated, and his martial arts have reached the highest level. He only has five qi to stabilize his body, and the three skills of shadow-holding and water mirror have not yet reached perfection.
The spirit-casting elixir in hand has been used up again, and the spiritual veins cannot be condensed.
So he simply practiced the remaining three techniques with his clones.
According to his estimation, all three techniques should be almost perfect before arriving at Muzu City.
After that, you have to wait for Xuanhua Liquid to be obtained and break through the realm before you can continue to practice.
Lin Shen never thought that one day he would encounter a situation where he would be unable to practice.
You know, he used to think that there were too few clones, not enough for cultivation and distribution!
Five days passed in the blink of an eye.
The Dragon Tooth Flying Boat is already very close to the depths of the Longyuan Mountains.
According to the original plan, the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat did not enter this dangerous area, but took a long detour along the edge.
Along the way, we encountered many flying demon clans, but with the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat guarding them, these demon clans had nothing to do with the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat. After chasing them for a while, they left in frustration.
Lin Shen and the other three didn't care at all.
Two days passed quietly like this.
But on the day when the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat was about to leave the depths of the Longyuan Mountains, Lin Shen, who was resting in his room, suddenly felt the floor shake violently, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in surprise.
With the stability of the Dragon Fang Flying Boat, this situation will not occur even when it is attacked by monsters.
Unless it was attacked close to the limit of the guardianship limit!
Lin Shen's eyes narrowed, and he immediately stood up and walked out of the cabin.
Arriving on the deck, Qu Ke and Shen Zening had arrived and were looking outside with frowns.
Following the gaze of the two people, Lin Shen was slightly startled.
I saw a group of strange-looking monsters surrounding the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat at some point.
These monsters are shaped like owls, with the body of a pheasant and the tail of a dog, but they have a human face.
It has two wings on its back, and its upper body has a pair of upper limbs with sharp claws.
"This is the human-faced owl!"
Lin Shen immediately recognized the origin of these monsters.
The human-faced owl is a Tongxuan realm monster that possesses the power to control the wind. It usually appears in the depths of the Longyuan Mountains and rarely leaves to the outer areas.
"Why did the human-faced owl appear here?" Lin Shen muttered to himself in confusion.
"It's the Eagle Department!" Qu Ke suddenly said, "Only people from the Eagle Department can drive the human-faced owl out of the activity area and to the outskirts of the mountain range!"
Eagle Department?
Lin Shen frowned.
Among the five demon tribes in the Longyuan Mountains, apart from the Fox tribe, which acts extremely low-key, the Eagle tribe is the most elusive.
It's just because most of the Ying tribe are demons with the ability to control the air.
Even the weakest demons in the Qiling Realm can move freely in the mountains by virtue of their ability to control the air, and are extremely difficult to be discovered and killed by practitioners.
And when the Tiger Tribe, Python Tribe and Bear Tribe were wiped out by the three major sects of Linlong City, and the Fox Tribe was frightened by the experience of the Haoshan Fox Clan and acted more and more low-key, the Eagle Tribe became the only king of the Longyuan Mountains.
I don’t know if it was because of this that the Ying Department lost its usual caution and became so domineering that it dared to leave the depths of the mountains and attack the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat with the Jiuyang Sect’s logo!
Looking around, I saw that there were at least one or two hundred human-faced owls besieging the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat.
Although most of them are only at the early stage of Tongxuan Realm, relying on their numbers and joining forces, they are enough to shake the protective restrictions of the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat.
At this moment, these human-faced owls kept flapping their fleshy wings, setting off gray winds that hit the dragon tooth flying boat one after another.
Looking from the outside, the entire spaceship has been surrounded by dense gray winds!
"A mere man wearing hair and horns dares to attack us, and we don't know whether to live or die!"
Qu Ke made a cold sound, took a white feather from his sleeve, and blew a deep breath upward.
The white feathers were nourished by the true energy, and seemed to have become spiritual. They trembled violently, broke free from his hands, and suddenly turned into a white rainbow and flew away.
The human-faced owls surrounding the dragon-tooth flying boat attacked for a long time, but there was no counterattack. When they relaxed, they became more and more proud and wild, emitting harsh and sharp excited chirping sounds from their mouths.
At this moment, a white rainbow suddenly shot out from the airship, and it circled around the airship like a comet trailing through the sky.
In an instant, with the flying boat as the center, a ring of blood flowers suddenly bloomed all around. Twenty or thirty human-faced owls froze suddenly, and then fell from the sky one after another like dumplings!
The sudden change frightened the surrounding human-faced owls, and they all screamed and retreated, and the offensive suddenly stalled.
But when they stopped, Bai Hong's attack didn't stop. He turned around again and continued to kill the demon group, constantly penetrating the vital points of the human-faced owls!
In an instant, blood flowers bloomed one after another in the sky, and human-faced owls fell one after another.
On the deck, Shen Zening watched this scene, his eyes lit up.
"Senior Brother Qu's Bai Hongyu is really powerful, but we can't let Senior Brother Qu take all the limelight. I'm here to step in as well!"
At the same time as he finished speaking, Shen Zening threw out a bit of green light, which shot out of the flying boat like a sharp arrow, instantly piercing the eyebrows of a human-faced owl.
The human-faced owl didn't even have time to scream, and died instantly. The green light rushed towards the next human-faced owl without stopping, and its speed was not inferior to that of Bai Hongyu.
When dealing with Yan Jingren before, Lin Shen had seen Shen Zening use this green light magic weapon to easily block Yan Jingren's Pingling Monument.
It’s just that my cultivation was limited at that time and I couldn’t see clearly what magic weapon it was.
It was only then that he discovered that the green light was actually a jade medal!
The jade token seems to have the effect of destroying the true essence. The gray gust controlled by the human-faced owl cannot stop the jade token even a little bit, allowing it to penetrate the strong wind and then harvest the lives of the human-faced owls.
Qu Ke and Shen Zening are both masters who have condensed their spiritual veins.
The demons in the early stage of Tongxuan Realm were no different from the miscellaneous soldiers under these two men.
In the blink of an eye, a large area of the human-faced owls around the flying boat were cleared by the two men. The remaining human-faced owls finally became frightened and fled away into the distance screaming in terror.
Qu Ke and Shen Zening controlled the magic weapon and chased them for a while, killing dozens of human-faced owls before they finally stopped with unfulfilled intentions.
Lin Shen watched the whole process from the sidelines without any intention of taking action.
Before, he would have thought about killing the man-faced owl to gain the effect of his talent of Killing the Way.
But now, whether it is cultivation, martial arts, or spells, they have been cultivated to the limit, and even if the talent is triggered, the effect cannot be improved.
He had tested this before.
Seeing the human-faced owl retreating in panic, Lin Shen suddenly felt a line of sight. He subconsciously turned around and saw a black shadow flashing on the mountain wall in the distance, as if something had slipped into the gap in the rock wall.
Lin Shen's eyes flashed slightly, and he looked away after a while.
After driving away the human-faced owl, the dragon tooth flying boat continued on its way.
When the dragon tooth flying boat went far away and turned into a black spot at the end of the sky, a human-faced owl slowly walked out from the mountain wall where the black shadow had flashed before.
"That spaceship has gone far, come out."
The human-faced owl that was speaking was far more slender than its brethren, and its upper limbs had almost turned into human arms, only covered with a thin layer of silver feathers. It was obviously not far away from surviving the human calamity.
After the voice fell, several more human-faced owls came out of the gap.
Without exception, they are closer to humans than the ones that besieged the flying boat just now, but not as much as the first silver-feathered human-faced owl.
"I have already said that the human cultivators who can ride on that kind of flying boat must be very strong, but you just don't listen to me. Now, let's see how you explain it to Master Miao You after losing so many of your own race!"
Upon hearing the word Miao You, Silver-feathered Human-faced Owl's expression visibly froze, but he still said firmly:
"That's because you refused to take action and you didn't allow me to take action. Otherwise, those two human cultivators would have been dealt with long ago!"
"Come on, those two people didn't even get out of the flying boat. They clearly haven't tried their best. Besides, there's a third person in the flying boat. If we really have to take action with you, we're afraid the whole army will be annihilated!"
"You are trying to embolden other people's ambitions and destroy your own prestige!"
"I won't argue with you. I'll wait until Lady Miao You comes back and let her comment!"
Silver-feathered human-faced owl's cheeks twitched, and he snorted heavily, saying: "Master Miao You was injured because of the human cultivators. I am avenging Master Miao You!"
"The human cultivator who hurt Master Miao You is not from the Jiuyang Sect!"
"They are both human cultivators, what's the difference?"
"you!!"
Several other human-faced owls almost fainted from anger.
Has this guy used all his intelligence in cultivation?
They don’t even know how to think carefully with their brains!
Can Jiuyang Sect and casual cultivators be the same?
Although their Ying tribe has become more and more powerful recently and has become the overlord of the Longyuan Mountains, it is only limited to the Longyuan Mountains.
If you really want to face the Jiuyang Sect, the outcome will never be any better than that of the Tiger, Bear and Python tribes.
Maybe he will follow in the footsteps of these three movies!
Several human-faced owls have begun to regret bringing this brainless guy out.
In a hurry, they had no intention of talking to this guy anymore, and were planning to wait for Lord Miao You to come back from Muzu City before they could sue this guy properly.
The attack by the human-faced owl was just a minor incident. Lin Shen and the others quickly put it behind them and continued on their way.
The rest of the journey was uneventful, and we did not encounter any large-scale monster attacks.
The Dragon Tooth Flying Boat left the Longyuan Mountains safely that night.
After flying for another day and a half, the outline of a giant city finally appeared in the distance.
"We've arrived, that's Muzu City!"
Lin Shen looked around and saw that under the blue and white sky, the towering city walls stood straight and stretched to both sides, with no end in sight in the distance.
Just from the front, the length is no less than ten miles by visual inspection.
You can vaguely see the dense vines entwining the city wall, almost covering the outside with a layer of vine armor.
Lin Shen didn't need to look closely to know that it was probably some kind of spiritual tree.
If nothing else, it should be part of the defensive formation of Muzu City.
Out of courtesy, the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat stopped about two or three miles away from Muzu City. Lin Shen and the others then set up their wind control skills and flew toward Muzu City at an unhurried pace.
They hadn't gone far when two disciples came up to them on flying cranes.
"Are you a fellow Taoist who came to attend the Xuandu Conference?"
"Exactly."
Lin Shen and the others handed over the Xuandu Order.
After checking the token, a disciple immediately said: "Our sect has set up a residence at the foot of Xuandu Mountain. Three fellow Taoists, please come with me!"
The three of them were not surprised and followed immediately.
There are not a few cultivators participating in the Xuandu Conference, and they are a mixed bag. For safety reasons, Muzu City will definitely not allow these cultivators to enter the city. The best way is to place them near Xuandu Mountain.
It is just close to the venue where the Xuandu Conference is held, saving time and effort.
Not long after, Lin Shen and the others, led by two disciples, arrived near Xuandu Mountain.
As you look in front of you, you will see endless stretches of majestic and undulating mountains.
Among all the mountains, one mountain stands out the most.
Not only is it towering into the clouds, but you can feel the rich spiritual energy soaring into the sky from a distance.
It’s Xuandu Mountain!
Among all the mountains, Xuandu Mountain stands out from the crowd and is particularly conspicuous.
Even if it’s your first time coming here, you won’t be mistaken at first sight.
At this moment, many stone houses have been built on several mountains near Xuandu Mountain. They are piled up like fortresses along the mountains.
Practitioners from all over the Tokaidō gathered here, and at a glance, there were probably more than a thousand people.
Qu Ke was filled with emotion after seeing this.
"There are still six days until the Xuandu Conference. There are already thousands of people at this conference. When the Xuandu Conference starts, are there two or three thousand people?"
Two to three thousand practitioners may not sound like a lot.
But if you think about it carefully, almost all the people who came to participate in the Xuandu Conference came for the Xuan Hua Liquid.
Those who need to use Xuanhua Liquid are practitioners who have reached the ninth level of Mingqiao and have begun to forge spiritual veins.
Such a person would already be an elite practitioner with a high status in any big city.
But there are two to three thousand people here, which is amazing when you think about it.
Lin Shen and the others were brought to several vacant houses, and the two Xuanling Sect disciples then left.
The remaining three people stopped chatting and each chose a room to stay in, preparing to recharge their batteries and prepare for the Xuandu Conference six days later.
Although the house prepared by Xuanling Sect could not be said to be simple, it was just an ordinary residence without any protective formations.
Lin Shen looked around, took out a few house-holding charms from the storage ring and pasted them on the wall. They were better than nothing.
"It seems that we have to find an opportunity to practice the formation. You don't have to be too proficient, but you don't have to be ignorant, lest you encounter this kind of situation next time and you can't even set up the simplest protective formation."
Making a decision secretly in his heart, Lin Shen sat down cross-legged on the bed, preparing to spend the next few days meditating.
But not long after he sat down, he suddenly felt someone approaching.
There were two people in total, and judging from their auras, they were not Qu Ke and Shen Zening.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door.
Lin Shen had no choice but to stand up, go to the door and open it.
There were two people standing outside the door, both in their thirties and forties, one tall and one thin.
He is tall, has a sinewy face, a strong back and waist, and has more white eyes than black eyes. You can tell at a glance that he is not a good guy.
The short one has a smile on his face, his eyes are rolling around, and he is shrewd inside and out.
"What's the matter with you two?" Lin Shen looked at the two of them calmly and asked casually.
The short man cupped his hands towards Lin Shen with a smile on his face and said:
"My dear Lianxi, this is my companion Luoden. The two of us have been admiring the Xuandu Conference for a long time. We have long wanted to attend a conference. Unfortunately, we have no way to obtain the Xuandu Order and have not been able to do so. Now we have taken the liberty to come and disturb you.
I wonder if my brother can give up the Xuandu Order to the two of us?"
"Of course, we won't take it for nothing, we will definitely give you enough reward!"
