The land of Kyushu is only a part of the Kyushu realm. It is the part located in the center of the world that is most suitable for human beings to thrive.
To the east is the vast sea, and to the east of the sea is an unimaginably huge group of whirlpools, whose astonishing suction force can even suck in the light from the sky; to the south is the vast Daze, and the end of the Daze
, there is a vast sea of fire that will never go out; to the west, there are continuous mountains, and the Lianyun Mountains at the end of the mountains tower up to the Gangfeng layer, among which Jietian Shenfeng is known as the Pillar of Optimism;
To the north is the winding ice field, and to the far north is the Grand Canyon that is said to lead to the netherworld.
No matter which direction it is, it is actually bigger than "Kyushu".
And to the southwest where Wu Jie is going now, there are mountains connected one after another.
In fact, the so-called "the west of Kyushu is a mountain" refers to the southwest. The northwest of Kyushu is a desert, and there is another land and population on the other side of the desert, which has become its own country. When Wu Jie helped Xiao Buyi find the true legend of Buyi's god
, I once met two monks from the Far West countries in the desert.
The names of those two people are very strange, one is called Momoda and the other is called Hehe. Whenever Wu Jie thinks of them, he will be curious about the land in the far west - could it be that in the country beyond the desert, people are called
Such a strange name?
"Speaking of which... I have either been busy with cultivation or other things these years. In short, it seems that I have always been busy. After condensing my essence, I might as well go to the Kingdom of the Far West to see it and gain some experience."
He was talking to himself as he drove the Escape light through the mountains.
The reason why he doesn't use Soaring Clouds and Riding Mists but uses Fire Escape is because Soaring Clouds Riding Mists will expose his cultivation level.
In the mountains outside Jiuzhou, there are many powerful monsters. They are not stupid and will not easily conflict with the monks passing by. But if the passing monks are strong enough to threaten them, then even if they are not for majesty,
And when fighting, you must come forward to find out what is going on, lest you miss any opportunities or be plotted against someone for unclear reasons.
With Wu Jie's cultivation at the peak of his martial arts, once he passes by in an honest way, there will definitely be many powerful monsters jumping out to block the way. Or "Our family just wants to fight the strong..." or "What's the good thing? Count me in."
How?" Or "Human, your power is enough to destroy the balance here..." If that is the case, it will be really annoying! So he would rather hide his cultivation and advance as a Taoist monk. A casual cultivator in the Taoist realm.
, there are still quite a lot of them in this southwest mountain. Although their cultivation level is not very high, they often have one or two unique skills of pressing the bottom of the box, which really forces them to use special tricks, and ordinary refining monsters will suffer.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, those refining monsters will ignore these casual cultivators and treat them as if they do not exist as long as they do not cause trouble.
Naturally, Wu Jie had his reasons for choosing to use Fire Escape, the simplest way of flying. As the saying goes, a man is not guilty but only carries the treasure. If he uses some special means, there may be greedy people who will rob him. Fire Escape is
A street product is low-key enough, but the speed can prove from the side that it is very powerful. It is low-key but not low-key, simple but not simple, and is most suitable for avoiding trouble.
He flew day and night non-stop for several days. Finally, he saw the sky turn reddish from a distance, and felt a powerful flame force surging not too far away.
Come to think of it, it was the volcano that had just erupted.
There are frequent volcanic eruptions in the mountains in the southwest, but what makes Qingyang Guan pay attention is naturally extraordinary. From hundreds of miles away, Wu Jie can feel the power of the surging earth fire. As he gets closer, this
The feeling of identity became clearer and clearer. When he finally came to the volcano where thick smoke was still billowing, sparks were rising, and the sky was red, he could almost hear the power of the earth's fire surging, as if
Like jumping for joy.
He nodded and lowered the escape light.
His escape light was only halfway down, but he suddenly stopped and looked at the volcano doubtfully.
He hadn't noticed just now - the volcano was being enveloped by a huge formation. The formation was quite clever. He couldn't fully see the changes hidden in the middle for a while.
Wu Jie is not a fool, and it is impossible for him to rashly step into a large formation that he has not yet finished. That is simply equivalent to putting his neck under someone else's knife, which is simply stupid!
And he can bet that there must be someone in charge of this formation. Seeing his escaping light suspended in the air, it is impossible for the person in charge of the formation to have no reaction.
Sure enough, he waited for less than half a cup of tea before the formation was activated. A tornado wrapped in black smoke went straight into the sky, allowing the entire volcano to regain its clear vision.
On the hillside of the volcano, there is a simple stone chamber. It can be seen that it has just been built not long ago. Next to the stone chamber is an extremely complex formation disk, which is obviously the core of the entire formation.
In the formation, a bald demon with a horn in green clothes was silently controlling the formation, while outside the formation, there were two other monks, staring at Wu Jie hanging in the air.
"Where do fellow Taoists come from?" asked a short monk in gray-white clothes, "In the next place, there is Bai Youcai in the Volcano. This is a newly opened town in our Volcano. Fellow Taoists, please don't trespass."
Wu Jie smiled slightly and replied: "I am Du Ruo, a loose cultivator from the Yue Kingdom. I heard that there is an acupoint here that leads to the depths of the earth, and I want to find an opportunity. I wonder if I can go there?"
"Huh! Everyone wants to find an opportunity, but how can it be so easy to find an opportunity!" A big man sitting on a stone bench next to him, picking his feet, shouted rudely, "You have so little ability, but you also want to find an opportunity? Believe it or not.
If the underground fire breaks out below, it will burn you to the point of leaving no ashes!"
Wu Jie glanced at him, shook his head slightly, and asked: "If I'm not mistaken, the cultivation level of the three Taoist friends is only comparable to that of Du. Since you can guard here for a long time, I can naturally go down and look for you."
Looking for an opportunity - Du has no other abilities, but he still has some experience in the fire spells."
The big man who picked at his feet suddenly burst into laughter, and a fierce and mixed flame rose from his body, seventy-eight percent of which was composed of earthly fire: "How dare you say you understand fire in front of Sajia? Who do you think you are!"
Wu Jie was not angry, and even ignored him. He just looked at the other person.
It is obvious that one of the two people sings the red face, and the other sings the white face. Now that the white face has sang, it is time for the red face to speak.
Sure enough, the short man came forward in time and persuaded the big man "Old Wu" to put away the flames. Then he said to Wu Jie: "Fellow Taoist, although my senior brother's words are rough, his truth is not wrong. This
Anyone can go to the cave under the volcano. But if you don’t have enough skills to go down... I’m afraid you’ll never come back!”
"To be honest with you fellow Taoist, since the news of the opportunity here spread, thirty or forty fellow Taoists have gone down to look for the opportunity. However, less than half of them can make it out alive, and less than half of them can gain anything.
Half. I see that Taoist fellow Taoist is not very old, so why bother taking a big risk just for this possible opportunity!"
Wu Jie couldn't help but laugh: "Fellow Daoist Bai, Fellow Daoist Wu, you two should stop talking in circles. Although Du is not that old, he has been in the world for decades. What are you going to do before you let me go?
?But quotes please!”
The foot-picking big man Lao Wu and the short Bai Youcai looked at each other. Lao Wu spoke first: "You borrowed the road from our volcano, so you should have something to show for it!"
This meant collecting tolls. Wu Jie nodded, noncommittal.
"Fellow Taoist, please don't get me wrong, we are definitely not trying to block the road and rob. We are just maintaining this large formation to prevent the ground fire from violently erupting and protecting the living beings in this area - even if there is no credit, it is still a bit of hard work."
Bai Youcai said, "I think fellow Taoist is upright and a reasonable person. Quan should just support us and be a little more thoughtful."
He said it so sincerely that Wu Jie couldn't help but laugh.
"Then what do you want? The yellow and white things in the world are of no use to us."
"It doesn't matter if it's magic weapons, talismans, seals or elixirs!" Seeing Wu Jie's intention to relent, Old Wu suddenly became interested and shouted, "There is a shortage of everything in the mountains!"
What he said was very honest, but it seemed too shabby. Fortunately for Wu Jie, Du Ruo and Jasmine in the Book of Heaven couldn't help but laugh, and even Du Xin, who had always been expressionless, couldn't help but shake his head.
"It's so miserable to be so shabby when robbing people!" Jasmine finished laughing and sighed, "If he is so shabby and wants to imitate others in robbing, does he even know how to write the word 'death'?"
"There's nothing I can do. It's just because I'm poor that I want to rob." Du Ruo said with a smile, "But this person is really... so unscrupulous!"
Wu Jie nodded and looked at Bai Youcai again. He had already seen that among the three Earth Fire disciples present, the demon cultivator was a taciturn person like a saw-mouthed gourd. Old Wu was just a make-up person. The real
The one who can decide the matter is the inconspicuous Bai Youcai.
"To be honest, we really lack everything." Bai Youcai smiled sheepishly, but he was not in a hurry. Instead, he seemed very calm, "But we don't ask for much, as long as fellow Taoists are willing to express their opinions."
He was probably worried that Wu Jie didn't believe it, so he added: "Actually, the bulk of our income comes from asking for dividends from fellow Taoists who come back with a full load. Generally speaking, fellow Taoists who can make big gains are in a better mood.
As long as you say a few nice words shamelessly, you can always get some."
Wu Jie couldn't help but laugh: "You are really here!"
"Of course, we don't get the benefits of fellow Taoists for nothing." Bai Youcai smiled and took out a jade slip, "This jade slip contains the information we collected about the underground acupoints. In exchange for this, he said
What do you think?"
Naturally, Wu Jie would not object, so he took out a few pills he had refined while practicing, and exchanged this information.
With his ability, even the pills he made casually are rare and excellent for monks entering the Tao. The three of them did not expect him to be so bold. Although Old Wu smiled from ear to ear, even the man sitting in the formation
The demon cultivators among them all showed expressions of surprise. On the contrary, Bai Youcai was still calm and unhurried, and he had the air of a general who is unfazed by flattery or humiliation.
When Wu Jie was about to step into the volcano, he couldn't help but ask: "This information of yours is valuable. Since you have this, why didn't you take it out from the beginning? If you exchange it for it, no one will be willing to pay for it.
Bar."
"I will be kind to others only if they are kind to me. As for those who are unreasonable, we will just watch them burn to ashes in the ground."
Wu Jie nodded - if this man named Bai can continue on the road of spiritual practice, he will definitely become a great person!
