In the past thousand years, the Ziyang Sect has risen, and the little-known Lingjing Mountain has also developed more and more rapidly.
Lingjing Mountain is inherently deficient. It is just a hill a hundred feet high and cannot be regarded as a large mountain gate.
However, this mountain also has an advantage. The ground veins are much stronger than ordinary famous mountains and rivers, so it was used by Liu Xuanyan to build a secret cave and arrange a cross-continental teleportation array.
With this secret cave hidden underground, Zhang Zhixuan and Qing Chan did not give up this place where they practiced in their early years, and invested a lot of resources to run it with all their heart.
By the time they made great progress, they had already become accustomed to the plants and trees in Lingjing Mountain and were unwilling to move the mountain gate, so the Ziyang Sect's mountain gate was located in this little-known place, making this small place known as Yuanyang Realm.
The monks preached.
In order to operate and build Lingjing Mountain, the Ziyang Sect consumed countless resources, totaling more than hundreds of millions of spiritual stones.
Not only did they cultivate this mountain into a sixth-order high-grade spiritual vein, they also arranged two sets of sixth-order high-grade formations on the mountain.
The sect even dispatched tens of thousands of monks to use the method of building mountains with soil to transform the terrain of Lingjing Mountain for thousands of miles, connecting Lingjing Mountain with nearby Lushan, making Lingjing Mountain beautiful and steep.
Ziyang Sect has invested such huge resources and has already made the surrounding area tens of thousands of miles extremely prosperous.
In the underground cave, a purple light flickered slightly, and the cave was shrouded in a mountain-protecting formation.
Zhang Zhixuan and Qing Chan sat opposite each other and suddenly opened their eyes.
Qingchan sighed: "There's going to be an earthquake again."
"In just a few decades, seventeen earthquakes have erupted in Yuanyang Realm, and we don't know how many mortals will be killed or injured."
Qingchan smiled bitterly and said: "When disaster comes, even we must be careful to protect ourselves. It is also our own misfortune to live in such an era. In recent years, due to the continuous earthquakes, even Qi Practitioners and Foundation Establishment monks have been killed or injured.
A lot of people, let alone ordinary mortals!"
The two shook their heads and immediately passed the news of the earthquake to their disciples, asking the Ziyang Sect monks to organize mortals to avoid the earthquake.
Both of them are Yuanshen monks and can sense the core of Yuanyang Realm's earth veins.
Any subtle changes in this world will be difficult to hide from their eyes.
Especially for large earthquakes that affect an unusually wide range, they can often be sensed by Yuanshen monks several days in advance.
Sure enough, just three days later, Zhang Zhixuan suddenly felt vibrations up and down, left and right.
This earthquake affected a very wide range, and earthquakes broke out in almost all the five continents and seas of Yuanyang Realm.
If Ziyang Sect had not taken precautions in advance, who knows how many people would have been killed or injured? Even so, the entire Ziyang Sect territory still suffered heavy casualties.
Less than a month after the earthquake, in the Lingjing Mountain Patriarch Hall, Zhang Zhixuan Qingchan was sitting at the top, with more than a dozen Nascent Soul monks standing on both sides, and below were more than a hundred important Jindan masters of the sect.
Zhang Zhixuan's eyes flashed and he asked Tang Yinsheng, "How about the losses?"
As Zhang Zhixuan broke through the Yuanshen in retreat, the position of head of Ziyang Sect has been handed over to Tang Yinsheng.
Tang Yinsheng's face was heavy, and all kinds of data in recent days had already been recorded in his mind.
"According to the summary of various sects, the epicenter of this earthquake was in Xiyao Prefecture. The territory of three counties in this prefecture was razed to the ground, and the mountains and rivers were completely displaced. Even the Nascent Soul monks lost more than thirty people.
Because of our early warning, the losses from this major earthquake were relatively light. According to statistics, more than 1.7 million mortals were killed and injured in the major spiritual mountains, more than 2,000 Qi-training monks were lost, and 37 Foundation-building monks were also killed. As for the Vassal Sect,
Because the preparation time is shorter than ours, the casualties may be more serious."
In the seventy-three years since Zhang Zhixuan's thousand-year-old ceremony, seventeen super-large earthquakes broke out.
In the territory directly under the Ziyang Sect alone, more than 200 million mortals died in the earthquake, equivalent to one-fifth of the population of the Ziyang Sect, which greatly damaged the sect's foundation.
Although the monks above the Zi Mansion suffered less losses, the death of a large number of mortals still brought considerable difficulties to the Zi Yang Sect. If this situation continues, all sects in the Yuanyang Realm, large and small, may be wiped out.
The Yuanshen monks from both the human and demon tribes are a little worried about this.
It was the first time they noticed the integration of the two worlds. Everyone thought that the date of the integration of the two worlds was coming soon. Unexpectedly, this date has been delayed again and again.
The Yuanshen monks made two calculations, but they were not accurate.
A few days ago, Zhang Zhixuan, Qing Chan, and Taoist Yu jointly conducted a test and found that the date when the two worlds will merge will have to wait for a month.
However, everyone is a little unsure about the calculation results.
"Mortals are our foundation. It is extremely unfortunate to encounter such catastrophes in succession. You give orders to the low-level monks of the sect and let them enter the mortal world for three years to help major towns with disaster relief, build houses, and dig wells."
Tang Yinsheng nodded and said: "Master, don't worry, I have already warned you about this in advance."
Suddenly Zhang Zhixuan and Qingchan's expressions changed, and they immediately set up Ziyang Xianyun and came to the sky above the earth's fetal membrane.
Purple light flashed in their eyes, and they immediately used the Heavenly Eye Treasure Light Technique, and immediately discovered that there was a hole in the fetal membrane of Yuanyang Realm.
A ray of red light broke through the fetal membrane, and a large amount of extraterrestrial fire suddenly fell. In an instant, countless cities and mountains were plunged into a sea of fire.
Under this level of disaster, only a dozen Nascent Soul monks escaped with their lives.
Zhang Zhixuan frowned and said: "It seems that the affected area is near Qingmang Plains in West Yaozhou."
Although Qingmang Plain is located above Xiyaozhou, it is the territory of the Qingyang Demon Saint. The area affected by this disaster is the border between the human and demon tribes, and is relatively close to Qinghu Mountain, the hometown where Zhang Zhixuan visited in the past.
"There are holes in the fetal membrane of the earth, and strange fires from the sky will continue to pour in. By then, there will be no grass growing in the Yuanyang Realm. It seems that the date for the blending of the two realms is really close. The top priority is to discuss it with other Yuanshen. See
How to plug this hole?"
The two shook their heads and smiled bitterly, and both came to the vicinity of the fetal membrane gap together.
At this moment, many souls have come to the gap in the earth's fetal membrane.
There are many old acquaintances of Zhang Zhixuan here, as well as a few unfamiliar souls.
"Zhang Xiaoyou is here?"
"I've met Ancestor Yu."
Discovering that Taoist Yu had arrived nearby first, the three of them immediately gathered together. Through Taoist Yu's introduction, Zhang Zhixuan got to know several unfamiliar souls.
The two Yuanshen monks with the ugliest faces are Yang Shenggong and Qingyang Demon Saint.
Yang Shenggong is relatively junior among Yuanshen monks, and his cultivation level is the same as Zhang Zhixuan Qingchan.
This person can be regarded as a fellow monk of Liu Xuanyan's generation, who became the Yuanshen four hundred years ago. When Zhang Zhixuan Qingchan was traveling in Xiyaozhou, Yang Shenggong was only the top Yuanying.
The Qingyang Demon Saint is dressed as a young girl, and it seems that she has taken off her demon body and transformed into a human form. From her appearance, there is no trace of the demon cultivator, but according to rumors, the demon saint's true body is a fox demon and a human.
Goat hybrid.
Different from ordinary demon saints, Qingyang Demon Saint is a demon cultivator who keeps his integrity and cultivates hard.
She has been cultivating Yuanshen for six thousand years and has never provoked a large-scale war. This demon ascetic monk has made extremely rapid progress. After six thousand years, Qingyang Demon Saint's cultivation has become equivalent to that of Yuanshen.
Four floors.
The longevity of a demon cultivator is long, far longer than that of a human being. According to normal calculations, this Qingyang Demon Saint has enough longevity to cultivate to the eighth level of the soul.
