Xuanyang Island is still the same, still a little lifeless.
After Zhang Zhixuan and his party arrived at Chiyun City, Bai Sixing had made all preparations and was waiting for Zhang Zhixuan and his party.
He was quite wary of Qing Chan's magical background. When he saw Zhang Zhixuan and the two of them, he said respectfully: "We haven't seen each other for decades. The cultivation of these two fellow Taoists has improved greatly, but I am still the same. After a while,
I'm afraid even Daoist Fellow Zhang can't compare to you."
When we first met, Zhang Zhixuan's cultivation level was only at the eighth level of the Zifu. Now, after only more than forty years, his cultivation level has almost caught up with Bai Sixing's.
Many years ago, Bai Sixing was severely injured by Zhao Leshan and Li Yingyuan. He has made no progress in the past forty years. A simple battle of skills may not necessarily defeat Zhang Zhixuan, a latecomer.
"Brother Bai Dao is so polite. It is our first time as a couple to participate in the monster war. We are not familiar with the situation of the Scarlet Flame Sect. I would like to ask Brother Bai to help me with some things."
Bai Sixing quickly cupped his hands and said very politely: "Brother Zhang Xian, just ask, you and your wife have saved my life. I will do my best to help as long as I can."
Zhang Zhixuan asked directly without being polite: "It is rumored that the Red Flame Sect has been defeated continuously in recent years, and there is only a small territory left in the Fire Dragon Abyss. If we hunt down the fifth-level monsters, can we wait for reinforcements from the Nascent Soul Stage monks?"
"Although the Scarlet Flame Sect is at a disadvantage, there is no problem in sticking to the mountain gate for the time being. Some large islands nearby are not only connected by teleportation arrays, but also protected by powerful formations, so their safety is guaranteed. If you are not far from the Scarlet Flame Island
, Nascent Soul stage monks will usually intervene. However, there are no absolutes in this world. If we are unlucky and the Nascent Soul stage seniors are restrained by the sixth-order dragon, we will have to rely on ourselves."
The Xuanyang sea area is close to the vast sea, and it is a remote place in the Qingli Sea. There is not even a sixth-level demon king, and monsters above the fourth level are very rare. The Dafang Island treasure ship fleet is busy for a year, and it is estimated that it can only hunt one.
Both ends.
Although this sea area is desolate, human monks are the overlords.
But the Fire Dragon Abyss sea area where the Scarlet Flame Sect is located is a little different.
The Fire Dragon Abyss sea area is adjacent to the Xuanyang sea area, and the situation here is that the monsters have the upper hand.
The Scarlet Flame Sect monks were forced into a small corner and had to rely on the support of the monks from the nearby sea area to barely stabilize the situation and avoid losing the mountain gate.
Because of the fierce conflict between humans and monsters, the brutal war between the two sides has lasted for two to three thousand years, and the blood left behind has been countless and can dye the sea surface thousands of miles red.
The Xuanyang Sect and the Scarlet Flame Sect have a close relationship, and because of their relationship, they often send Golden Elixir monks to participate in wars to assist the Scarlet Flame Sect.
The last time Luo Yuzhang participated in the battle, he successfully obtained the fifth-level demon pill.
Unfortunately, the treasure ship was severely damaged by the demon king, so there was not actually much profit. However, by being able to capture the demon pill, the sect's foundation became a bit stronger.
"After going to Scarlet Flame Sect, what are your plans for Brother Bai Dao?"
Bai Sixing said: "My biggest task when I go to Scarlet Flame Sect is to repair the treasure ship. In order to repair the treasure ship, I have brought a lot of precious materials here. I probably won't risk going out to sea to hunt monsters. Zhang Xiandi will also need to go there."
Be careful.
The Scarlet Flame Sect is in a tight situation, and all kinds of extraordinary skills can be exchanged with merit. Even the fifth-level treasure ship that has been refined has been sold to outsiders. If Brother Zhang Xian wants a fifth-level demon pill, he can exchange it with merit.
You have to keep an eye on the high-level monsters."
Along the way, as Bai Sixing continued to talk, Zhang Zhixuan gained a clearer and clearer understanding of the situation of the Red Flame Sect.
After five months of running around, everyone finally entered the Fire Dragon Abyss.
Entering the Fire Dragon Abyss sea area, you can indeed encounter groups of monsters of various levels. Unfortunately, without the supervision of Nascent Soul monks behind you, Zhang Zhixuan does not dare to take action rashly. Once delayed for a long time and trapped by a large number of monsters, even if they are
Golden elixir monks are also very troublesome. If they encounter a sixth-level demon king, they will suffer heavy losses.
Along the way, everyone kept changing directions, avoiding various groups of monsters.
Relying on the invisibility talisman drawn by Qing Chan, they avoided most risks and arrived at the Red Flame Sect smoothly.
The Scarlet Flame Sect lacks strength and only occupies six large islands in the entire sea area.
In particular, Chiyan Island, where Shanmen is located, is about five or six times larger than Xuanyang Island.
However, the fire veins on Chiyan Island are very strong. Although it is suitable for cultivating fire spirit root monks, it is not very friendly to mortals. The population of the island is only 30% of that of Xuanyang Island.
In order to cultivate a large population, the Scarlet Flame Sect monks chose the road of enclosing the sea and building islands.
Thousands of years ago, they built more than ten artificial giant islands and placed spiritual veins on them to reproduce the population.
Unfortunately, three thousand years ago, the power of demon beasts became more and more powerful, especially when two sixth-level demon kings moved from the outer sea more than a thousand years ago. The balance of power in the Fire Dragon Abyss sea area began to become unbalanced, and battles between humans and demons also became frequent.
Over the years, the Scarlet Flame Sect has been defeated in successive battles and has lost seven large islands. In addition to the Shanmen headquarters, the remaining six islands have fifth-level spiritual veins arranged on them, leaving enough Golden Core monks to garrison them.
Relying on the powerful formation on the island, even if you encounter a sixth-level demon king, you will not collapse at the first touch and can wait for the help of the Yuanying monks of the sect.
Moreover, the Scarlet Flame Sect also had a powerful fleet of treasure ships and a steady stream of external aid. It finally stabilized its position and was not completely expelled by the monsters. It was driven out of the mountain gate.
The Chiyan Island has a radius of more than 100,000 miles. In order to avoid the dispersion of power, the cities and towns on the island have already been combined into one giant city.
The Red Flame Sect has been operating here for thousands of years, and it has become rock solid and difficult to break into.
Almost all the essence of the Red Flame Sect is concentrated here. The spiritual fields outside the city are all wrapped in the mountain protection formation. The area of the spiritual fields exceeds hundreds of thousands of acres, ten times that of the Qingxuan Sect.
Soon after Zhang Zhixuan and others landed on Chiyan Island, they felt the power of the defensive formation.
A powerful forbidden law was deployed on the island. Even Zhang Zhixuan and other Jindan monks felt a heavy pressure. The Shenxingzhou involuntarily landed from high altitude and stopped thousands of miles away from Fuyun City.
"The range controlled by the no-fly formation here is really large. The amount of spiritual stones consumed every day must not be a small amount. There must be a large spiritual stone mine on this giant island, otherwise it will not be able to sustain it for too long."
The four of them did not force their way in. Relying on the cultivation of Zhang Zhixuan and others, as long as they were willing to spend a lot of mana, they could still fly to the city gate.
However, they came to Scarlet Flame Sect for the fifth-level demon elixir, not to slap someone in the face and offend others. Naturally, they would follow their master's wishes and use divine walking skills instead of forceful flying with swords.
The scale of Fuyun City is larger than that of Huoshan City, because there is no shortage of spiritual stones on the island, and the level of spiritual veins is superior to that of Huoshan City. The number of monks on the island exceeds one million, and most of them live near Fuyun City.
The buildings in Fuyun City all follow the spiritual veins, like a crescent shape, with only three city gates. Arriving at the city gate, Zhang Zhixuan's expression changed, and he discovered two fifth-level puppet beasts. This shows the background of the Red Flame Sect.
