Chapter five hundred and ninety-two Xizhou terroir
Xizhou is located in the northwest of Nanzhou and west of Zhongzhou. Sixteen thousand miles outside of Da'an City in Zhongzhou, there is a large river several thousand meters wide and hundreds of thousands of miles long. That is the dividing line between Zhongzhou and Xizhou, but this river is also
The dividing line between Nanzhou and Central Continent, the long and narrow Yue Kingdom is right next to the river. However, Nanzhou monks rarely take this road. Most of them take the teleportation array in Xuanyue City and leave. This also makes the Yue Kingdom become...
It has to decline.
"According to ancient records, the Xizhou Immortal Realm has been destroyed several times. The most recent one was related to the Jade Emperor. At that time, the demon dragon was in trouble and the monsters counterattacked. It was the Jade Emperor who came out of nowhere, killed the demon dragon, and defeated many others one after another.
It took a monster clan supreme to put an end to the monster rebellion. Counting from then on, the rebuilt Xizhou has a history of less than 300,000 years, making it the shortest among the five continents."
"For 300,000 years, the monks of Xizhou have overcome obstacles and opened up territory for the human race, but they have only pushed less than 300,000 miles. The territory is really narrow, and within these 300,000 miles, due to many tug-of-wars, the Lingshan Mountain was broken.
The level of spiritual veins is also low, so Xizhou produces very little, and it is also the poorest place among the five continents."
Lan Lingyu has never been to Xizhou, but she has read a lot of books about Xizhou in Danxia Sect, and she still knows a lot about its history.
The Xizhou Immortal Cultivation World has been destroyed many times. Every time the demon clan counterattacked, Xizhou suffered heavy losses and destroyed its territory. As a result, its spiritual mountain level was too low, its output was too little, and there were not even as many high-level monks as there were in Nanzhou.
"But Lan Fairy, you must not underestimate Xizhou. Xizhou's monks are very famous for their fierce reputation. Xizhou adopts the model of one sect and one country. The sects are completely integrated into the country. The country is poor and all resources are exhausted.
Relying on fighting, the monks are particularly fierce."
Lin Xiao also responded. Lin Xiao had a little understanding of the situation in each continent. Xizhou can be said to be a country of immortality that combines politics and religion. All official positions in the country require immortality cultivators, and immortality cultivators will find some
Staff and the like come to assist.
However, the management system is not important. What is important is the army system. The Xizhou Kingdom puts all monks into the army and trains all year round. The monks’ advancement is linked to their cultivation and military merit, so the monks are stimulated to be fierce and warlike. This system is actually very unhealthy.
, but it is the reality that suits Xizhou. If we don’t do this, Xizhou will not be able to survive at all.
Lin Xiao and the two traveled all the way, learning about the customs and customs of Xizhou. They met many, many monks on the way. This number was more than that of Nanzhou and Central Continent, because Xizhou, where all the people were soldiers, would not let go of any child with spiritual roots.
The most practiced method in Xizhou is body training. Many of the body training methods have even been simplified and then popularized among mortals. Any mortal is a martial arts master with several moves.
These body-refining mortals can defeat some first-level monsters, and they are also an important means for Xizhou to resist the monsters' counterattack. As for the monks, they are naturally more powerful.
Martial arts practitioners have bad tempers. They have seen many fights along the way. It is common for mortals and monks to kill and seize treasures. The rules of society tend to be the law of the jungle, which is unimaginable in Central and Southern Continent.
"There is also a Qin State in Xizhou. It is actually a big country. This is a coincidence."
A few days later, Lin Xiao and the two came to a country in the Western Continent called Qin State. It had the same name as the Qin State in the Southern Continent, but the two had nothing to do with each other. It was just a coincidence.
"Qin is one of the five major kingdoms in the Western Continent. Its border is in the wilderness. It is also the main force against the demon clan. There are many high-level monks in the country. It is said that its leader is at the peak of the seventh realm."
Lin Xiao told Lan Lingyu the information he had learned. There were five major countries in Xizhou, which were the strongest. The remaining dozen small countries had little strength. Even Dao Gang monks could create their own country. They were all five major countries.
of vassalage.
These five major countries are also constantly conquering each other. Because resources are scarce, they all want to annex each other and strengthen their own power. This also makes the order of Xizhou become chaotic.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way"
In the capital of the Qin State, Lin Xiao and Lin Xiao were sitting in a restaurant facing the street. After a while, they saw a large number of soldiers appearing, driving away passers-by. Then a team of carriages appeared. The people in Kyoto were accustomed to this and took the initiative.
avoid.
"It's Princess Mingyue"
"It's really Princess Mingyue. She's back from the front line. No wonder there's such a big battle."
"Yes, Princess Mingyue is the God of War of our Qin State. Not only is she highly skilled in cultivation, but she is also very resourceful and has thwarted several demon clan counterattacks."
"Isn't Princess Mingyue's toughness just a shame for men like me? A noble monk actually wants a woman to protect him. Those princes are really embarrassed."
The restaurant has always been a news distribution center. The two of them sat in their seats and listened to the discussions of the surrounding monks. They knew who the visitor was and the general movements of the Qin State.
In addition to the sectarian system, Xizhou's national system is also combined with the family system. In Tiansheng Sect, families are suppressed by Nanxuan, but here in Xizhou, this is not the case at all. The strongest forces in the country are generally the royal family.
, the royal family cannot suppress the power of the other major families and will be overthrown.
Therefore, the countries in Western Continent attach great importance to the cultivation of their children. The royal family has a large population, and some outstanding figures will often appear. The most powerful descendant of the leader of Qin is Princess Mingyue.
Princess Mingyue is less than 500 years old, but she has achieved the level of spiritual cultivation. She has been leading troops on the border since the beginning of the Zi Mansion to conquer and defend against monsters. She is extremely powerful.
"Xizhou is cruel, using Qi and blood as its power, and it truly deserves its reputation."
But Lan Lingyu's attention was elsewhere. She was looking at the soldiers. Most of them were low-level monks or even mortals. Their biggest feature was that they had extremely strong qi and blood.
This exuberance is due to their cultivation skills. Xizhou monks are the best at fighting formations, and Xizhou's fighting formations not only condense the monks' profound energy, but also their qi and blood, which increases their power several times.
Once the energy and blood are consumed too much, it will have a great impact on the body of the monks. It is often difficult for such monks to advance, and their life span will be greatly reduced, even less than half of normal. For example, if a mortal warrior has participated in a battle, even if
Most of them survived, and most of them did not live to be fifty years old, so Lan Lingyu said they were cruel.
"Lan Fairy, the reality is different in different places. There is nothing to blame. The monks in Xizhou are struggling to survive, so this is a last resort."
"I know, it's just a sigh. In fact, how can we Central-Continent monks have it so easy?"
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore, let's listen to what they say."
Lin Xiao replied that there was no point in arguing about these things, and Xizhou would not stop doing this just because of the dispute between the two.
The two of them listened to the words of the monks in Xizhou and became more and more understanding of the customs and customs of Xizhou. There are many mountains in Xizhou. It is difficult for the monks and it is even more difficult for the mortals. That is why they are fierce. After being fierce, what they talked about most was all kinds of wars. Today
Whoever beats whom will be beaten again tomorrow. They are very bellicose.
The two of them heard that it was not interesting, so they went to visit the shops in Qin's Kyoto to see how the resources in Xizhou were. Xizhou was also one of the targets of Zhongzhou's exploitation. In fact, there were still many high-end resources.
However, a large part of these high-level resources are not cultivated, but collected in the wilderness. Although the demon tribe has the upper hand in Xizhou, the monks will not be beaten passively. There are many monks who go into the wilderness, and they all use
Appearing in the form of a small team, wandering in the wilderness, you can often collect some wild high-level elixirs or ores, and you can often make a fortune, so this kind of adventure activity is also particularly popular in Xizhou.
"We are foreign monks. It seems that people have seen all our details and are unwilling to sell anything to us."
Lin Xiao and Lan Lingyu went to several shops, but they didn't see any high-end resources. They were not willing to take them out at all. Lin Xiao went to several shops before he realized what they were doing.
"No way, just because he is a foreign monk, he won't sell it?"
"It's normal. High-level spiritual objects are strategic resources. If they are sold to an enemy country, doesn't it mean they are collaborating with the enemy? Therefore, monks who are not familiar with and don't know how to follow will definitely not be able to buy them."
"Well, it seems that we should get familiar with the customs and customs of Xizhou as soon as possible, otherwise we will really be unable to move forward, and there will be no point in traveling."
"Haha, it's too late, we're being targeted"
"Focus on where?"
"Lan Fairy, did you see the man selling sesame cakes and candied haws at the door just now? Don't you think they look familiar? There is also the man who is carrying us on his back. He has walked in front of us at least five times."
Lin Xiao replied that although his level was not as good as Ye Xiao's professional spies, he was still much better than ordinary people. They had been targeted since they came out of the restaurant.
It's just that the cultivation level of these surveillance people is very low, the highest is only Zifu, which is too far away from the two of them, so Lin Xiao doesn't care at all.
The monk's memory is very powerful. After Lin Xiao's reminder, Lan Lingyu immediately remembered it and said, "No wonder Tianxuan Sect's Black Water Tower fell into your hands. You are indeed a powerful person."
"Haha, stop praising me, let's go, there's a good show tonight"
"Just in time, let's see how much details this Xizhou country has."
Lan Lingyu replied that the two of them are not afraid at all. The peak monks in Xizhou are also golden-bodied monks. Ordinary monks will not be their opponents. As for the golden-bodied monks, they have to consider the consequences. Although her Danxia Sect is not in Central Continent,
What a sect, but it is not something that countries like Xizhou can bully. As for Lin Xiao, she is not even worried. No matter how powerful Xizhou is, can it be compared to Tianxuan Sect? This person has slapped Tianxuan Sect in the face several times and is still alive and kicking.
When the two returned to the inn, sure enough at night, a large group of people mobilized around the inn and surrounded the inn. Then a Taoist monk knocked on the door of Lin Xiao and Lan Lingyu's room.
"What happened"
"Where is your household plate?"
"We are foreign monks and we don't have a household."
"If you don't have a household plate, you are an illegal monk. I suspect that you are spies from other countries. Come with us."
"Wait, are you sure you want us to go back with you?"
Lin Xiao even ran over him immediately, causing the Dao Gang monk to kneel on the ground with a plop. Lin Xiao did not have the habit of paying private visits in disguise, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. A master must have the magnanimity of a master.
However, as soon as the Dao Gang monk knelt down, the monks surrounding the inn did not show any fear or retreat. Instead, they all activated their qi, blood and profound energy and twisted it into one force towards Lin Xiao.
