About twenty years ago, the Southwest War ended, and the Southwest Proto-Dao Alliance led by Yuanxia Mountain occupied the Tianjue Mountains, Canglijiang and other cultivation resources treasure lands, while the Liyun Valley was controlled by the three alliances of demons, witches and demons. After that, the Southwest pattern gradually stabilized, and occasionally minor frictions occurred.
Therefore, Chen Xuan was able to enter Liyun Valley safely with his identity as a disciple of the Wu Zhen Sect.
Seeing a group of demon cultivators, witch cultivators and demon cultivators who were busy patrolling the Riyun Valley, Chen Xuan casually found several of them to deal with and asked about the situation in the Riyun Valley in recent years.
In the more than half a month, Chen Xuan frequently changed his identities and traveled between Tianjue Mountains, Liyun Valley, Kuai Clicheng and Cangli River near Qingyang Mountains. While inquiring about the recent situation of the Southwest Zhengdao Alliance and Qingyang Gate, he was also intensively preparing his plans.
After so many days of inquiry, Chen Xuan received important news.
Legend has it that there is a spiritual object in the mountains and sea realms called worms.
According to the "Shan Hai Qi Tan": "A fish with a fish body and a bird's wings are like a mandarin duck. If you see it, you will have a big flood in your town."
This strange fish, which looks like a bird, will come in groups from time to time, hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands, from the extreme northern Juehan Sea, pass the Yinyuyuan of the Northern Wilderness, pass through the Black Storm Desert, head south through the Tianjue Mountains, cross the Liyun Valley, enter the Cangli River and flow along the river, swim into the East China Sea, and arrive at the legendary East Heaven Divine Pillar that has stood between heaven and earth since the creation of the sky.
The East Heaven Divine Pillar standing above the East China Sea is flowing with a curtain of the most majestic and vast waterfalls in the mountains and seas, called "Tongtian Waterfall".
In Tongtian Waterfall, another strange fish, which is said to have the bloodline of "Chiwen", one of the nine sons of the ancient real dragons, lives.
According to the romantic descriptions of some travelers and poets, thousands of fish set out from the northern cold waters and crossed hundreds of millions of miles of mountains and rivers to enter the East China Sea, in order to meet and fall in love with the sea dragons living in Tongtian Waterfall and stay together for the rest of their lives.
Although this romantic statement cannot stand the craftsmanship, the worms are indeed descendants of the East China Sea and the sea dragon. It is said that the crystals of the two strange fish have an extremely low probability of being born "fish and dragons" that are infinitely close to the ancient real dragon. In this way, the worms and sea dragons can change the fate of the clan with the fish and dragons, and even allow the ancient dragons to return to the mountain and sea realm.
However, after this extremely long and dangerous journey of ten thousand worms, one in ten people entered the East China Sea, and very few people could combine with the sea dragon to produce fish and dragons. Fish and dragons often cannot grow normally after birth, and most of them became food in the stomachs of monsters in the East China Sea.
Therefore, after so many thousands of years, the fate of the two strange fish has not changed, leaving only the world with a sad and romantic legend of alien love.
After hearing this legend from a wandering poet in the cliff city, Chen Xuan was very curious about why the fish did not fly directly from the extreme northern cold waters to the East China Sea to reduce casualties, but instead circled a large circle and were killed by monks from various states.
In this regard, the wandering poet explained that the worm must go through various hardships and tests, and only after entering the East China Sea can we get the love of the sea.
Chen Xuan felt that this explanation was too romantic. His own guess was that the geese chose a longer path. Perhaps like the monks, they were all for the sake of experience, so that they could become stronger in the experience, and that they would be more likely to give birth to fish and dragons when they entered the East China Sea and combined with the sea and dragon.
The reason why Chen Xuan was interested in this legend is that the geese that were about to come to the southwest prefecture were related to a major event in the southwest.
It is also an important part of Chen Xuan’s next plan.
By buying news in the black market of Cliff City and finding opportunities to question the low-level Qingyang Sect disciples who came to Cliff City, Chen Xuan learned that Elder Gu had performed missions for the Southwest Zhengdao Alliance in recent years and had obtained a lot of good achievements.
These good skills are accumulated enough to exchange for a middle-grade cave house located on Yuanxia Mountain. Elder Gu broke through the Return to Void Period in this cave, and has been practicing in the cave for more than a year.
So if Chen Xuan wants to kill Elder Gu, he must wait for Elder Gu to leave Yuanxia Mountain. He will not be so reckless that he will go directly to the largest sect in the southwest to kill people.
As the geese are about to enter the southwest prefecture, the Southwest Zhengdao Alliance is preparing to organize a large-scale "fish hunting" event, located on the bank of Cangli River.
Although the worm is only a fifth-level spirit beast, its flight speed is far beyond the escape speed of the monks in the God Transformation Stage, and is even faster than the monks in the Return Void Stage and the Hedao Stage Stage, and is extremely difficult to catch.
Therefore, it is necessary to set up a formation ban specifically for worms in Canglijiang in advance. At that time, all sects of the Southwest Proto-Dao Alliance will send monks to participate in the hunting.
Originally, Elder Gu could choose not to participate in this fish hunting event, but this event was unprecedented in scale. It is said that a big man from the top sect in the east happened to come to the southwest prefecture. In order to please this person, the Southwest Zhengdao Alliance invited him to go to Canglijiang together to watch the monks of the southwest Zhengdao sects display their magical powers and catch strange fish.
Chen Xuan has not found out who this mysterious big shot is yet, but he only needs to know that Elder Gu will definitely participate in the fish hunting event at that time, which is enough.
After almost the information was collected, Chen Xuan came to Linfeng Tower, the cliff city, and found a seat on the top floor where the most scarce and expensive tables were located. He took a leisurely tea, enjoying the scenery of the corridor bridge in front and receiving the sound transmission from Beigong Shi.
Chen Xuan once came to Linfeng Tower and had a conflict with his disciples. Thinking of the past, Chen Xuan couldn't help but sigh that time flies. Fortunately, there is no change in things. Zhang Zhicheng and Qin Feixue, the two beauties who were chatting and laughing with him in Linfeng Tower, both lived a good life.
Through inquiry, Chen Xuan learned that Qin Feixue has now reached the level of the God Transformation Stage and is one of the top ten super geniuses in Yuanxia Mountain and even the entire southwest prefecture.
There are three days left before the Southwest Pro-Dao Alliance fish hunting event, and Chen Xuan is not anxious at all. After completing this plan, he will return to Zhongzhou as soon as possible.
Because according to the news that Beigong passed by the Tengser Ring and the summary of rumors about the war in Zhongzhou in the cliff city, Chen Xuan learned that the war in Zhongzhou has reached a heightened level.
About a year ago, the Yunqin Wu Dynasty and the Guangming Wu Dynasty launched a war against other Wu Dynasty under the bewitching of Jiuge. At that time, Yunqin's attack on the Shengtang was blocked. Bai Junlang turned to lead his troops to cooperate with the Guangming Wu Dynasty to attack several other Wu Dynastys that were slightly weaker than the Shengtang. He won one after another, and two Wu Dynasty was in danger.
In addition, the Han Lan Wu Dynasty and the Shang Wu Dynasty took advantage of the rekindling of the war in Zhongzhou and each used strong forces to oppress the allies to use their troops to fight. On the surface, it was to unite against the Yun Qin Wu Dynasty and the Guangming Wu Dynasty, but in fact it was ambitious. These actions made the battle situation in Zhongzhou even more confusing.
