The first thousand one hundred and seventy-two chapters
All the monks agreed in unison that the things in the weapon refining room belonged to the weapon refining hall and there were no personal belongings.
Wang Daoyuan has a spirit bead space on his body, and his usual belongings are all placed in the spirit bead space, so there is nothing to pack away.
The next day, a flying warship stopped at the gate of the Refining Hall.
There is nothing strange about this flying warship. It is just an ordinary fifth-level high-grade flying warship.
But there were quite a few Yuanying monks on board, and there were as many as twenty monks in the middle and late stages of Yuanying.
Judging from this posture, it should be transporting something more important.
Wang Daoyuan has only been a disciple for a few years. He usually stays in the weapon refining hall and rarely interacts with other people.
He didn't even know the other stewards of the Weapon Refining Hall.
He didn't even know the Nascent Soul monks from other halls.
After the flying boat hovered stably, a late-stage Nascent Soul monk stepped onto the bow.
Chao Wang Daoyuan raised his hand and said, "It's Manager Zhou, I guess. Deputy Palace Master Liu has already greeted us. Please come with us to the Bone Palace."
Wang Daoyuan returned the gift: "Thank you, senior brother."
Then, he took everyone on the boat.
Feng Lin and other golden elixir monks naturally cannot stay with Yuanying monks.
They arrived at the bottom of the flying warship and stayed with the Jindan monks who were driving the warship.
After a group of people boarded the ship, the warship took off and headed southeast.
Wang Daoyuan and Zhou Luan came to the bow of the ship, and the late Nascent Soul monk came forward to talk.
“I heard that Guanshi Zhou’s skill in refining weapons has been appreciated by the sect leader and deputy sect leader, and he has the support of the Weapon Refining Palace. His future prospects are limitless.
I am Zhao Yan, the steward of the Alchemy Palace. I heard that Zhou Daoyou and his wife are also proficient in weapon refining, so I would like to ask steward Zhou to take care of me in the future."
The master of the Pill Hall is a member of the sect leader Zhenjun Xiaofeng. Although he and the Weapon Refining Hall are not from the same faction, they have always had a good relationship.
After all, alchemy and weapon refining are close in many aspects, and the two palaces have often communicated before.
It is common for the stewards of the Pill Hall and the Weapon Refining Hall to discuss something with each other...
As the saying goes, "don't hit someone with a smiling face", people treat each other with courtesy, and Wang Daoyuan is naturally polite.
"Manager Zhao, you're very polite. My husband and I are new here. It's an unexpected surprise that we can get a manager position. We really don't dare to think anything wrong."
Wang Daoyuan was a little unsure as to what the purpose of Zhao Yan's approach was.
Although the relationship between the two palaces is not too tense, it is not close to each other.
Zhao Yan smiled and said: "Guanshi Zhou is a casual cultivator, and he must have met many powerful cultivators who like to rank based on seniority.
Our Zhenhai Sect has always been different from those forces. The promotion of disciples has always been based on individual abilities.
As long as you have real ability, you can be promoted.
Just like Zhou Daoyou and his wife, they had already become stewards as soon as they joined Zhenhaizong.
If you were in an ordinary sect, you would have to have served the sect for at least several decades to receive this kind of treatment."
This is quite reasonable. Zhenhaizong is indeed pretty good at recruiting talents.
It's just that Zhao Yan is still doing Tai Chi, and his true purpose has never been revealed.
He was unwilling to tell his true purpose, and Wang Daoyuan also laughed: "Zhenhai Sect is indeed much stronger than the general force against disciples who are casual cultivators."
The two chatted for a long time, one after another, but made no progress.
Zhao Yan saw Wang Daoyuan's desolate look and knew that it would be of no use if he didn't show something real.
He sent a message and asked: "What is Manager Zhou's impression of the sect leader?"
Wang Daoyuan sneered in his heart, he finally showed his fox tail. After pulling so much, he turned out to be poaching for the sect leader.
"Manager Zhao is joking, it has only been three years since I joined the sect.
Until now, I have only seen the three senior sect members, the Deputy Master of the Weapon Refining Hall, the Great Elder, and True Lord Zhaoling.
As for the sect leader, I have only heard of it but never seen it.
Manager Zhao asked me about my impression of the sect leader, which was really difficult for Zhou."
Zhao Yan smiled awkwardly: "It's Zhao who didn't think well. In these years of dealing with the Bone Palace, the sect leader has always been at the forefront, and Manager Zhou has probably never seen him before.
The sect master is a generous man and thirsty for talents.
I used to be just a helper in the Pill Hall, and my cultivation talent was average.
I just have a little bit of talent in alchemy.
Fortunately, thanks to the promotion of the sect master, we are where we are today.
Fellow Taoist, both in terms of cultivation talent and alchemy and weapon refining talent, are far superior to Zhao.
If the sect leader sees you, he will definitely promote you."
This guy is indeed poaching for Zhenjun Xiaofeng, but his level of poaching is not high.
Wang Daoyuan is here to trick Zhen Haizong. It doesn't make any difference which faction he belongs to.
However, now that he has become the subordinate of the cultivator named Chen, if he joins the subordinates of others, he may cause unnecessary trouble.
No matter who you are working for, there is no need to waste time seeking information. There is no need to take this risk.
"I am now the steward of Zhenhai Sect, and naturally I am also a subordinate of the sect master.
If you make great contributions in the future, the sect leader will surely reward you."
There was a look of disappointment on Zhao Yan's face. Wang Daoyuan's words had made it clear that he was very satisfied with the current situation and had no intention of changing the status quo.
Knowing that he could not win over Wang Daoyuan, Zhao Yan lost his previous enthusiasm. After chatting with Wang Daoyuan for a few words, he left the bow and returned to the cabin.
As the steward, Wang Daoyuan could naturally find a room in the cabin to live in.
Stay in the cabin with Zhou Luan, waiting to reach the front line.
The speed of the flying warship is not too fast, and it is estimated that it will take four days to reach its destination.
After flying on the sea for three days, the warship arrived at the southeastern part of the Ten Thousand Demons Islands.
The aura here is richer and more violent than that on Zhenhai Island.
Of course, Wang Daoyuan had fought Jue Tianyuan several times, and a bit of violent spiritual energy was really nothing.
Compared with other places, the biggest difference here is that there is a hint of unusual energy in the aura.
This energy is extremely subtle and difficult to sense.
If Wang Daoyuan had not been exposed to this kind of energy, he would not be able to sense it.
This energy is somewhat similar to the energy emitted by the soul body. Wang Daoyuan sensed this energy in the soul clan and some weapon spirits.
Moreover, as the flying warship continues to move forward, more and more special energy is mixed in the aura.
This flying warship is constantly approaching the gate of the White Bone Palace, and the White Bone Palace is very close to the ancient battlefield. It can be said that it is built on the edge of the ancient battlefield.
In this case, this special energy probably came from that ancient battlefield.
This flying warship is far away from the Bone Palace, and the straight-line distance should be four to five million miles.
That ancient battlefield could actually affect such a long distance. It was indeed the place where true immortals were buried.
The flying warship headed southeast with strong winds.
After flying another hundred thousand miles, the special energy in the aura suddenly became so thin that it was almost undetectable.
There's something wrong with this. This kind of special energy can only be produced in an environment like an ancient battlefield.
The closer it is, the richer it should be.
Even if my guess is wrong and the special energy does not come from the ancient battlefield, it should not suddenly become extremely thin.
His consciousness unfolded and he checked the surrounding situation.
Hundreds of miles away, the special energy is obviously much stronger than here.
And no matter which direction it goes, the special energy is stronger than here.
Now Wang Daoyuan knew in his mind that there was something moth in the sea that absorbed a lot of special energy.
Seeing that he didn't look good, Zhou Luan asked softly: "You don't look good, what happened?"
Wang Daoyuan sent a message and replied: "There is a moth in the sea, it's hard to say what it is.
What might be the impact on the warship if it moves from here?
Be careful, so as not to be in a hurry when a special situation arises."
Zhou Luan knew Wang Daoyuan very well and knew that he would not joke about such a thing.
She nodded slightly and said nothing more.
Others on the warship were unable to sense the special energy hidden in the aura at all, and naturally did not notice anything unusual.
The warship continued to move southeast, and suddenly, the special energy in the aura completely disappeared.
Wang Daoyuan frowned: "Here he comes."
Zhou Luan also became alert, with spiritual power surging within his body.
Once an abnormality occurs, you can take action immediately.
At this time, a white fog appeared ahead.
This white mist also contains that special energy, and it is extremely rich.
Even ordinary Jindan monks can sense the existence of extraordinary energy in the mist.
The white mist appeared so suddenly that the warship did not react at all and plunged into it.
Wang Daoyuan could only see a vast expanse of white everywhere in front of him, and his consciousness was severely suppressed.
He only released the power of spiritual consciousness comparable to that of the late Nascent Soul, but in the end he could only penetrate more than ten feet into the white mist.
At this time, Zhou Luan's body had been wrapped by a flaming phoenix.
Her physical body is not strong enough. If she has no means of self-protection and is suddenly attacked by a sneak attack, it is difficult to guarantee that she will not be injured.
Although there was no movement on the surface of Wang Daoyuan, bright yellow energy was already flowing on his skin.
Whenever he is attacked, he can instantly transform into a body of dragon scales.
In the half-dragon state, his physical strength and power will be greatly improved.
Even if a cultivator at the peak of his spiritual transformation makes a sneak attack, he will not be helpless.
Soon, a voice came from outside the room where Wang Daoyuan and Zhou Luan were: "Manager Zhou, are you still in the room?"
This voice is not unfamiliar, it is Zhao Yan's voice.
Wang Daoyuan shouted: "We are here, what is going on with this white mist?"
Zhao Yan breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you are still here. This thing is called the mist, and it is a special phenomenon in the southeast of the Ten Thousand Demons Islands.
Just like the dark storms that often occur in the far sea, they all appear suddenly in uncertain places.
As for the cause, no one can say clearly.
It's just that this thing is extremely rare and may not appear once in a thousand or two thousand years, so very few people know about it.
The mist itself is not dangerous, but it will suppress the monk's consciousness.
When strange fog occurs, there are often monsters fishing in troubled waters.
Since Manager Zhou is in the cabin, don’t go out easily to avoid being attacked by monsters.”
Knowing the details of Bai Wu, Wang Daoyuan felt relieved.
"Don't worry, Manager Zhao, we and I won't go out and hang out."
"I have to inform others and say goodbye."
Zhou Luan sent a message and asked: "According to Zhao Yan, this strange fog should be a special natural phenomenon. Why can you predict it in advance?"
"There is a special energy in this mist, which is very strong now, and you can feel it.
But I sensed this special energy half a day ago.
It's just that the energy was very thin before, and the closer you go to the southeast, the richer the energy becomes.
Just now, the special energy near the warship suddenly decreased, and I noticed something abnormal."
Zhou Luan nodded: "I see..."
Before he finished speaking, the warship shook violently.
According to what Zhao Yan said before, this should be a nearby monster that used the cover of the mist to cause trouble.
Wang Daoyuan searched out with his spiritual consciousness, but did not find the target.
Less than ten breaths after the shock, the warship shook violently again.
Wang Daoyuan clearly heard a subtle "clicking" sound coming from the deck of the warship.
It seems that the hull of the warship has been damaged.
There is a layer of defensive formation outside the flying warship. The monks at the peak of Yuanying attack with all their strength. It is impossible to break through it without struggling for several hours.
A single blow can damage the hull of a warship, which is not something a Yuanying monk or a fifth-level monster can do.
The attacks outside did not stop. Every few breaths, the warship shook.
The sound of the ship's planks breaking became more and more obvious, and after a few more twists and turns, the entire warship disintegrated.
At this moment, a loud shout came: "You evil beast, you dare to attack our Zhenhaizong's warship, you will die or die."
Then, a roar came.
Wang Daoyuan was not unfamiliar with this roar. During the decisive battle with the Blood Shark Thieves on Qingmu Island, the roars of those ten thousand years of corpse refining were like this.
