Flying over the Baichuan River, there is a plain wetland, and Baichuan City is thousands of miles away.
During the flight, Elder Lu explained to Zhang Ling the situation of the monk they had just stopped.
Elder Lu is the middle-aged man with gray hair, and the blue-clothed female cultivator's surname is Park. Both of them are honorary elders of Baichuan City.
As for the person just now, he was not an alien demon, but a rogue demonic cultivator, named Evil Wanderer. He also came to Baichuan City a few days ago to provide reinforcements.
The immortal city was naturally very happy.
However, this person launched an attack half a day ago and seriously injured the city lord of Baichuan City, Clear Water Zhenren.
This Evil Wanderer, is said to have had an old relationship with Clear Water Zhenren, knowing each other for hundreds of years and having dealt with each other many times.
This matter was not launched by this person alone. There were also two rogue cultivators at the time.
The three of them used an excuse, saying that they were willing to join Baichuan City and become elders, so they met with Clear Water Zhenren.
The power of Baichuan City is among the top of the Twelve Immortal Seats. Currently, there are seven Nascent Soul old monsters sitting in town.
Clear Water Zhenren was very happy that a Nascent Soul old monster was willing to join.
Originally, joining the Twelve Immortal Cities and becoming an elder required a review, especially by the main city, Tianmu City.
But during this time of war, even if Clear Water Zhenren was unwilling, he would not refuse openly.
After all, there were three Nascent Soul old monsters(元婴老怪: Nascent Soul old monster), and the energy they could exert during this war was naturally not small. Therefore, he was willing to win them over and went to discuss it.
Clear Water Zhenren had the strength of the middle stage of Nascent Soul, and he also took an elder surnamed Chen with him at the time.
Unexpectedly, the three of them had already set up an ambush and suddenly launched an attack. The elder surnamed Chen died on the spot. Clear Water Zhenren was also caught off guard and seriously injured, almost falling, and escaped with a secret technique.
This matter immediately caused a commotion in the city and alarmed many cultivators in the city.
You must know that the current Baichuan City is not just the original power of Baichuan City, but has gathered a large number of high-level cultivators. There are thirty to forty Nascent Soul cultivators gathered.
The three of them saw that the matter was exposed and immediately fled. The Nascent Soul old monsters(元婴老怪: Nascent Soul old monster) in the city would naturally not let them go, and several old monsters immediately went after them.
The gray-haired Elder Lu and Fairy Park were chasing this Evil Wanderer.
After listening to the whole story, Zhang Ling couldn't help but stroke his chin and hummed softly. "So that's how it is. These three are so bold and reckless, aren't they afraid of becoming the public enemy of the cultivation world?"
"These three are indeed too bold to attack our city lord. However, this kind of thing has happened once a few days ago, so it's not too surprising. In the end, this matter is still related to the alien demons.", Elder Lu smiled wryly.
"Oh, has it happened once before?" Zhang Ling's eyes flickered, as if realizing something, and said, "Could it be that this has happened in the several immortal cities that have been captured so far?"
"Fellow Daoist Zhang has extraordinary knowledge. Indeed, among the five immortal cities that have been captured so far, Shuanghu City was captured in this way. It is said that it was similar to this attack on Clear Water City Lord. They were all familiar rogue cultivators who wanted to join the immortal city and gained the trust of the immortal city lord, and suddenly launched an attack when the alien demons attacked the city, disintegrating the defense of the immortal city from within.
Blackwind City seems to have had an elder betray them. Together with the alien demons, they destroyed the core of the city's formation, which is why it was quickly captured. Otherwise, how could our side's forces have been broken through five cities in such a short period of days?" Elder Lu said worriedly.
The blue-clothed Fairy Park also had a serious expression. "Fellow Daoist Zhang, this kind of thing is not a special case. During the period of the alien demon invasion, it always happens a few times. Some rogue cultivators are greedy for demonic energy and are turned against by the alien demons. Sometimes, alien demon cultivators are mixed into our human race. Some alien demons do not have demonic characteristics on their bodies, and it is difficult to distinguish them from our human race cultivators."
"This time, the alien demons seem to be out in full force, so it's not easy to deal with. Fortunately, Leiguang Zhenren has already contacted the righteous path, the demonic path, and the Tianhai Immortal Alliance. These forces have successively sent reinforcements. Our chances of winning are still very high. After all, we are a bit stronger than the alien demons."
The three of them talked about the current situation, and Zhang Ling saw that the clouds and mist in front of him became thinner, and strands of morning light sprinkled on the earth.
It was already dawn.
There were more cultivators encountered along the way, most of whom were guards of the immortal city, patrolling the area thousands of miles nearby.
Before long, Zhang Ling saw Baichuan City. He first saw a vast expanse of water.
Baichuan City is extremely special. It is not built on the ground, but on a huge lake.
In the distance, the clear water is meandering, surrounded by a faint water mist. A towering black shadow is hidden in it, looking a little ethereal.
On the water, you can also see many huge flying boats and other large flying magical artifacts parked.
Zhang Ling swept his spiritual sense towards that side, and he could see the momentum of Baichuan City clearly.
Baichuan City, from a distance, looks like a straight mountain peak, tens of thousands of feet high. However, the horizontal area is not wide, and it looks like an independent mountain pillar inserted into a huge lake. There are pavilions, carved railings and painted buildings, long stone bridges, Tianjie(天街: sky streets) and other buildings built in the air.
There are also some cultivators' escape light shuttling in it.
This kind of mountain pillar is Baichuan City, which is said to be divided into thirty-six floors. There are eighteen floors exposed on the water surface, and there are another eighteen floors of underwater mansion under the water.
The momentum is unique, which makes people's eyes shine.
Zhang Ling couldn't help but exclaimed in his heart, Immortal Palace underwater mansion.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, this is my Baichuan City. This big lake is called Tianyi Lake, and Baichuan City is built according to Tianyi Lake. There is also a exquisite water vein sealed by ancient cultivators hidden in Tianyi Lake, and the Tianshui Great Array is arranged, which can connect the entire Baichuan River. It can be said to be impenetrable. Even if the alien demon army arrives, it will be difficult to capture."
Seeing Baichuan City, Elder Lu's mood seemed to have improved, and he introduced it to Zhang Ling with a smile.
Zhang Ling nodded and thought to himself that there is actually a exquisite water vein hidden here. This is a special spiritual vein, which is even rarer than spiritual veins like the Ice Fire Eye.
exquisite water vein, another name is Water Dragon Abyss, which is said to be a water vein transformed by a true dragon.
The closer to Baichuan City, the more active Zhang Ling felt the water spiritual energy in the air. Cultivators who practice water-based exercises will definitely get twice the result with half the effort here.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise on the water in front of him. The water gurgling, rolled up a dozen huge water vortex, and streams of water rose up.
This scene attracted Zhang Ling's attention. There were more than a dozen golden core cultivators over there, holding blue jade screens, seemingly controlling the water flow.
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Zhang, this is a disciple of the immortal city building a defense works. This is a water flow wall built on the Tianshui Great Array." Seeing Zhang Ling's gaze, Fairy Park explained with a smile.
"I see." Zhang Ling retracted his gaze and looked in other directions. Sure enough, there were many cultivators all over Tianyi Lake, setting off streams of water, or forming a huge water curtain, or water vapor lingering, gathering into clusters of water mist.
You can also see a kind of huge flying fish with a body length of several feet and blue-black scales all over its body, taking some cultivators and shuttling in the water.
"Iron Head Flying Fish"
Zhang Ling is no stranger to this kind of flying fish. He has seen it in Tianmu City, and there are shops selling it. The strength of the Iron Head Flying Fish is not high, and it is roughly equivalent to the second or third-order demon beasts after adulthood.
However, this kind of flying fish has tenacious vitality, and it also has wings. It can fly in the air and is good at shuttling in the water. It is a good water-based mount.
It is a special product of the fish and beast in Tianyi Lake. It is said that the meat is very delicious, and many cultivators also like to eat it.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, Lu and my junior sister have to report back to the city lord, so we will take our leave first. Fellow Daoist helped us kill the Evil Wanderer. I will report this matter to the Elder Council, and rewards will be issued soon." Elder Lu stopped his escape technique at this time, cupped his hands at Zhang Ling, and said with a smile.
"Oh, by the way, Fellow Daoist, you are an elder of the Haoyuan Sect, and you should be under the dispatch of Yanhua Immortal City. But now the situation is special, and our power of dispatch has been taken back by Tianmu City. Now only the Elder Council formed by Tianmu City in Baichuan City can dispatch us.
So Fellow Daoist, you have to go to the current garrison of Yanhua City to report and prove your identity, so as not to be restricted in the city." Speaking, Elder Lu also pointed out the current camp of Yanhua City to Zhang Ling. He and the blue-clothed Fairy Park accelerated their escape technique and flew towards Baichuan City.
Zhang Ling was still flying slowly, watching a large number of cultivators building fortifications, and heading towards the current camp of Yanhua City.
In the previous conversation, he specifically asked about the current situation of Yanhua Immortal City.
Yanhua Immortal City was also captured a few days ago. It is said that a total of ten alien demon Nascent Soul old monsters were dispatched at that time. This is not the main thing. During the war, an alien demon Nascent Soul late stage expert appeared. This is how Yanhua City was captured.
Fortunately, the elders of Yanhua City saw that the situation was not good, and transferred half of the cultivators in the city through the secret teleportation array. As for the casualties of Nascent Soul cultivators, it is said that only one Nascent Soul cultivator who volunteered to stay behind to cover the retreat was lost.
That person's name wasKuyunzi, one of the original four elders of Yanhua City, but his life was running out, so he was willing to stay behind to cover the retreat. In the end, he self-detonated his Nascent Soul and, with the help of the remaining formation power, detonated two alien demon Nascent Soul old monsters.
The alien demon Nascent Soul late stage expert who appeared seemed to have been slightly injured as well.
Hearing this news, Zhang Ling felt a little guilty in his heart. He couldn't help but admire him. This kind of cultivator is extremely rare in the cultivation world.
He asked himself that he could not do this in the same situation.
Flying over Tianyi Lake for a quarter of an hour, Zhang Ling walked three or four hundred miles. Along the way, he saw many warships and some pavilions and buildings floating on the water. These were mostly cultivators who came here to provide reinforcements.
Many of the buildings have special sect logos on them, which seem very independent and messy.
At this time, Zhang Ling saw three escape lightshurrying past him. His eyes lit up, his figure moved, turned into a yellow light, and instantly blocked the three escape lights.
The three escape lights were golden core cultivators. Seeing someone blocking their way, one of the white-haired old men looked ugly and was about to explode when he noticed that the person blocking them was a youth.
He swept his spiritual sense and immediately observed the spiritual pressure on Zhang Ling, which was unfathomable. The old man's face was startled, and he put away his anger. He gave a dry laugh. "Ah, Nascent Soul senior. I wonder if the senior has any instructions."
"It's nothing." Zhang Ling replied casually and looked at a yellow-clothed woman next to the old man. "Little Yan'er, it's been many days since we last met. How are you?"
"Hehe, it turned out to be Brother Zhang, you scared us." The yellow-clothed woman's round eyes saw Zhang Ling, patted her chest, and said with a sigh.
"Junior Sister Mu, do you know this senior?" The white-haired old man asked, putting away his thoughts.
"Senior Brother Zhou, this Senior Zhang, Zhang is an elder of the Haoyuan Sect." Mu Xiaoyan said with a smile.
"So it is Senior Zhang of the Haoyuan Sect. We have met..." The old man also breathed a sigh of relief and quickly saluted. Zhang Ling waved his hand and asked again. "Are you in a hurry because you have a task to do?"
"Brother Zhang, my two senior brothers and I are going to report to the city and assist a senior in controlling a large number of low-level water spirit beasts."
Zhang Ling nodded, "Then I won't delay you. You two go first. I want to ask my little sister a few things."
As he said, he looked at the white-haired old man and another black-faced middle-aged man. The two of them naturally did not dare to object, and hurriedly said goodbye before flying forward.
"Brother Zhang, what do you want to ask? So mysterious." Mu Xiaoyan's beautiful eyes blinked , a little curious.
"Xiaoyan, do you know where my Haoyuan Sect's(昊元宗: Haoyuan Sect) garrison is?" Zhang Ling looked ahead and asked slowly.
"Oh, so Brother Zhang wants to ask this. Some forces near Yanhua City are stationed in the area hundreds of miles ahead. The驻地(駐地: garrison) of the Haoyuan Sect and our Beast Control Sect are still next to each other, just in this direction, tens of miles away."
Zhang Ling hummed and raised his hand to take out a few jade bottles and a green jar.
"Now the alien demons are coming fiercely, and your cultivation is still a bit weak, so it is not small to be safe and sound. Hehe, this ancient treasure was obtained by me by chance, and I can't use it, so if you refine it a little, your means of saving your life will greatly increase."
Zhang Ling pointed at the green jar, the green jar was flat and round, with many bumpy points on it, which was very ugly. However, with the infusion of spiritual power, the protruding points on the jar turned into blue-green flower and bird patterns, illuminating the jar into a strange green jade jar.
The mouth of the jar was gently opened, and a cloud of green mist emerged. It could be sensed that the mist was transformed by pure wood spiritual power, and there was a faint fragrance.
"Ancient treasure, Brother Zhang, this is too precious, I can't accept it." Hearing that it was an ancient treasure, Mu Xiaoyan quickly waved her hand.
Zhang Ling shook his hand and put away his spiritual power. His figure flashed and turned into a yellow light and flew into the distance. At the same time, his voice came. "This green mist has a strong paralytic, although it is not fatal, be careful when you use it. Okay, I'm leaving."
The green jar is a wood-based ancient treasure, which was a treasure in the storage bag of the pale-faced old man who was killed in Blackwind City a few days ago. It can release paralytic poison smoke, which has some power.
However, for Nascent Soul cultivators, it does not cause much damage. A bit of a chicken rib. Meeting Mu Xiaoyan here, giving it to this girl can exert some effect.
Of course, Zhang Ling does not intend to let Xiaoyan repay anything, this is just casually doing it.
Staring at the direction Zhang Ling left, Mu Xiaoyan muttered , Thank you Brother Zhang. Then she put away a few jade bottles and a green jar. Caught up with the two senior brothers in front.
