"Ferryman, has anyone crossed the river from you before?"
The Blood Knife Elder of Wantu Clan, who was also a wealthy man, simply threw over a bag filled with spirit stones.
And he also revealed his own aura at the same time.
For these independent cultivators, we have to give them some benefits so that they will do things well. At the same time, we also have to tell them that we are not easy to mess with so that they will not have any bad intentions.
Sure enough, after the ferryman He Lao San took the bag of spirit stones, he put on a commercial smile.
"This gentleman has asked the right person."
"This stretch of water is eight hundred miles long, and I am the only raft."
"Just three hours ago, a generous young man took my raft over there. Are you looking for someone?"
The leading elder glanced at the compass in his hand again. The long needle was still pointing forward and shaking slightly.
"The aura is just ahead, not far away. Don't let him escape into the depths of the Ten Directions Domain. Chase him!"
"Ferryman, please take us across the river quickly."
Twenty ferocious monks jumped lightly and landed on the bamboo raft.
"My Lords, this is unacceptable. My raft can only carry ten people."
He Lao San also deliberately shirked responsibility.
Then another bag of snacks was thrown into his arms.
Then two Blood Blade Guards stood beside him, one on the left and one on the right.
"Don't worry, we all know some light body skills. As long as this bamboo raft doesn't sink and we have a place to stand, it will be fine."
"I believe this raft of yours will not sink."
As soon as he finished speaking, the two Blood Saber Guards standing beside him drew their swords. A bloody aura immediately filled the air, a naked threat.
The people of Wantumen also know some of the tricks of these ferrymen.
They would not feel safe riding the bamboo raft without two knives at the ferryman's side.
"It's natural, it's natural."
He Lao San nodded repeatedly, pushed the bamboo pole and crossed to the other side of the Liusha River.
Seeing the compass needle reacting more and more violently, the Blood Knife Guard became excited.
When we catch that Chongshan League leader, we will definitely teach him a lesson. Why run to this dangerous Ten Directions Territory when there are so many places to run to? I hope that guy didn't go too deep.
But just as they reached the lake, a dark cloud was blown in from the sky by a strong wind.
But as soon as I raised my butt, raindrops as big as beans began to fall from the sky.
Suddenly, the water level in the Quicksand River rose again, and in a moment it became turbulent and unbearable.
Even a bamboo raft made of very thin bamboo was shaken violently by the rushing current and was about to fall apart.
The leading elder, the Blood Sword Elder, turned around and squinted at the ferryman, but without panicking, he turned around and slashed three blood swords towards the sky.
Three terrifying knife lights tore through the dark clouds in the sky, causing the rain to suddenly decrease.
Rays of sunlight shone in from the area split open by the bloody knife, and the weather was about to clear up.
The terrifying power of the Divine Transformation cultivator was such that he actually changed the weather with the flash of his sword.
"You are a traitor. We are the Wan Tu Men. Anyone who sees you should leave immediately."
After resolving the dark clouds in the sky, the Blood Knife Elder shouted in all directions, warning certain beings.
If it was really a natural climate change, how could it be so easy to change it? This was clearly someone's doing.
But when he announced the name of his sect, hoping to scare off the invading enemies with ulterior motives, everything on the bamboo raft began to spin.
A stream of water suddenly gushed up from the river below, blowing the entire bamboo raft, along with all the monks on it, away.
They tried hard to keep steady in the air, but under the influence of the Flowing Sand River, they eventually fell into the water.
The two Blood Sword Elders drew their swords from the water and immediately became extremely alert and looked around.
Then soon, they discovered the culprit who attacked them.
A huge dragon fish with eight tumorous lumps on its head.
The original one head plus these eight tumorous lumps is the nine-headed dragon fish, which is why it has nine heads.
It was he who caused the dark clouds and heavy rain just now, and the rushing water into the sky was also spit out by him, the great demon Nine-headed Dragon Fish.
The big catfish that has just joined Jiang Li's team is not a fool.
Following Jiang Li's order, he became a bait and blocked the enemies that were following him.
Although he was an aquatic monster and had a huge advantage in the Quicksand River, how could he be a match for the powerful pursuers at the level of the God of Incarnation? So he immediately rammed his head against the underwater reefs, injuring himself, and then hurriedly went to seek help from the Nine-Headed Dragon Fish.
He said that an outsider came to provoke him, and it was not enough to kill one fish. He would come again in a few hours to stew the strongest dragon fish in this water area and drink it as fish soup.
What bad intentions could a fathead catfish have? After all, he had been a subordinate for so many years, and the leader of this area of water didn't have much doubt at all, so he believed the catfish's words.
How could the Nine-headed Dragon Fish, a great monster of the Flowing Sand River, bear this kind of humiliation? It had already come here to wait for these guys.
Now when the two sides meet, they are extremely jealous of each other.
They started doing it on the spot as soon as they met.
For the other cultivators of Wantu Sect who are below the level of God Transformation, it is difficult for them to survive in this Quicksand River, so there is no need to count on them to take any action.
The two Huashen elders are fighting against one. Although they have more numbers, their strength may be stronger.
But they couldn't fly away after falling into the water, which was very disadvantageous for them when playing away.
It is impossible to defeat the dragon fish monster in the Quicksand River.
Whether they can escape unscathed depends on whether they have the ability to do so.
Huge waves frequently exploded in the waters of the Liusha River. The two men and the monster fought for a whole day and a night. In the end, the Nine-headed Dragon Fish won, and the lives of the two Blood Swords were unknown.
Jiang Li, holding the order of the leader of Chongshan Alliance, also learned about the situation over there.
The ferryman He Lao San was rescued by the big catfish after he fell into the water. He then immediately used the communication spirit stone to pass the situation to Jiang Li in real time.
His previous guess was correct. There were indeed pursuers following him. It was worth it that he emitted a little aura from time to time to lead the Blood Knife Guards here.
The Wantumen still wants to kill him.
The two sides are already in a stalemate to the death, and this situation is not uncommon.
When mountains and rivers meet, it depends on whose means are more skillful.
After putting away the alliance leader's order, Jiang Li continued to trek through the mountains and forests.
This Ten Directions Domain is indeed the place where all demons gather. The situation is very different from that in the places occupied by human cultivators.
The main difference is that there are almost no decent roads in this area.
Many years ago when humans were still thriving here, some of the roads left behind were not cleaned up for many years, and now it is difficult to recognize their original appearance.
At most, you can only see some animal trails in the mountains that have been trampled for many years.
And trekking through the woods and wilderness, following the animal trails is not a wise choice.
If you follow the animal path, you might bump into a patrolling beast at any time, or walk directly into the cave of a demon king, which would be a lot of fun.
However, no matter how careful you are, you will inevitably encounter some monsters here.
Compared to Dachong Mountain and other places in the Eastern Region, the Shifang Region has a very good ecological environment because it has refused entry to human monks all year round and has not been subjected to years of hunting and plundering.
As the story often says, where magical herbs grow, there must be monsters guarding them.
Jiang Li has encountered such situations several times.
But after happily killing the monster, he discovered that the elixir guarded by the monster was in a secret area of the medicine garden in Dachong Mountain, where he could grab a handful of it.
After all, most of the really good things have fallen into the hands of those big monsters who occupy the mountains and act as kings.

The remaining ones are either not valued by them, or grow in places that are too hidden and dangerous, making it difficult to find them.
"It smells so fishy, do you smell it?"
Just as Jiang Li carefully left a piece of big demon's territory, he heard a sound coming from not far away.
"Fish smell? You must be smelling it wrongly. We have been walking for three days and there is no river or lake in this place. Where does the fish smell come from?"
"Hurry up and deliver the gifts to Wuzhe Fortress. If we delay important matters, the king will definitely not forgive us."
"That's right, that's right. The king's tribute is important. Let's go."
A group of wolf demons walking upright, driving a dozen large beasts and a group of ordinary goats, were passing by the foot of the mountain.
Jiang Li, who had quietly sneaked up close, restrained his breath and hid in the crown of a big tree, looking at the group of wolf monsters.
The smell that the wolf demons smelled before was probably Jiang Li. He had come into contact with a large catfish before, and his body was covered with dragon scales, so the fishy smell was indeed strong. Even if he tried to cover it up, it would be easily detected by the wolf demons with a keen sense of smell.
Of course, Jiang Li’s ears were also very good, and he was immediately able to spot the wolf demon as soon as it made a sound.
It’s just that monsters have a strong sense of territory and generally won’t easily step into other people’s territory.
There seemed to be no gathering place for wolf demons in the nearby area. Where did this group of wolf demons come from? Why did they cross such a long distance? From their conversation, it seemed that they were going to give gifts. Was the destination the Wuzhe Fortress?
These wolf monsters were wearing armor and ornaments made of bones and teeth, and holding extremely rough weapons in their hands. They did not look like wild monsters, and there should be a main mountain behind them.
Monsters also have their own complex social needs. The Manjianghong Inn opened by Jiang Li now has no less than two thousand stores and has seen countless little monsters.
Even the little demons form cliques, flatter and are cunning.
These monsters are no less intelligent than humans, so there is nothing strange about this.
There was a person in front of the wolf demon, holding a small gong. He would knock it lightly every time he walked a certain distance, and recite something loudly over and over again.
"The Green Wolf of Black Bamboo Mountain is here to borrow my passage. Kings of all the mountains, please do not be surprised if there is anything strange. The Green Wolf of Black Bamboo Mountain is here to borrow my passage. Kings of all the mountains, please do not be surprised if there is anything strange. "
Behind them were two wolf demons. Every time they arrived at a new place, they would lead two goats from the team and tie the goats to a tree.
This is the rule in the Ten Directions Realm. When borrowing a road, one needs to pay tolls and gifts to the kings passing by on the road.
Two goats are nothing, of course. But it's also an attitude.
Gifts are delivered so that both parties can save face and avoid a fight over face.
In addition to this group of goats, they also drove a group of wild animals.
These large animals do not seem to have any intelligence. They are just ordinary livestock that are trained and used for transportation.
But each of these animals had two large cages hanging on it.
There were a total of fifteen animals in this wolf-demon team, and thirty of them were hanging in cages.
These cages were all covered with a layer of red gauze. A large flower ball was hung on the top, looking festive. It must be the gift they mentioned.
It is covered by red yarn, so the contents of the cage cannot be seen directly.
But Jiang Li could clearly hear the low sobs coming from the bamboo cage covered by the wedding dress.
This sound...
Jiang Li frowned, gathered his magic power and blew it forward.
The demonic power turned into a demonic wind, and immediately a strong gale blew up, blowing up all the red gauze on the bamboo cage.
The wolf demon team immediately became a little confused, and they all picked up their weapons and stood guard around the gift.
Ignoring the chaotic wolf demon team, Jiang Li now saw clearly that the thirty bamboo cages were filled with human girls in red clothes and skirts.
And they were the gifts sent to the Five Exiled Cities. Monsters using humans as gifts was almost unheard of in Dachongshan.
These human girls were no more than 11 or 12 years old, and the oldest was no more than 17 or 18 years old. These were the best years of a girl's life.
But at this moment, there was no light in their eyes.
Only a few people were still sad and crying, and most of them just had numb expressions on their faces. They already knew the result, so they no longer held out hope.
Just like the information Jiang Li had obtained before.
In this ten-direction domain, humans have not completely disappeared.
Instead, a part of them were left behind and raised by the local demon tribe.
Eat whenever you want, kill whenever you want.
There is no difference between them and the domestic animals in the human world.
People eat animals, animals eat people, this world is really cruel.
Although he knew this, Jiang Li's eyes still became unusually cold when he looked at the team.
But after looking at the mountains behind him, he finally decided not to take action.
The catfish demon pill in his stomach was of low quality, and he himself was not good at using demonic energy.
If we take action now and only use the power in the demon pill, it will be difficult to kill this group of wolf demons quickly.
But if he used other powers, or made too much noise, he would definitely be discovered by the big monster in the mountain behind him.
When the fight starts, the big monsters in the surrounding area will gather and attack, and even he will not be sure to escape unscathed.
But it seems that Yan Hong is near the Wuzhe City. Jiang Li was worried that there was no road in this place and it would be difficult to find the specific location of the target.
Now that there is a wolf demon leading the way, he saves some effort.
And the Five Exiles City? Using the name of exile is quite arrogant.
It's a good opportunity to see what these monsters are doing.
