He did not join anyone's team, but stood alone in the back!
The rest of the people were packing their equipment, bags, and various other items, but he was the only one standing quietly in the corner, looking out of place.
"Originally, I wanted to let you set out again in a few days! After all, this time our family doesn't plan to rely on just one group of people to retrieve the goods."
Miss Tuoba came to his side, and this honor seemed less important in such an occasion.
"Most of them will die! Do you believe what I say..." Zhang Fan turned his head and looked at this pure-minded woman!
"Of course I believe it. It's a dragon! Its cultivation level is at least above the Jindan stage." Tuoba Feiyan sighed.
"Didn't your people say that any cultivator who gets close to that place will have his spiritual energy devoured and die without a burial place? Could it be that this curse-like effect is only limited to the human race?" Zhang Fan asked curiously.
"That's right, the human bloodline will be suppressed there."
"I'm afraid it's not just that. The dragon clan will definitely not dare to get close." Zhang Fan said coldly!
This made Tuoba Feiyan's beautiful brows frown immediately, and her eyes were fixed on Zhang Fan's face.
"You... figured out my identity?"
Zhang Fan shrugged: "I didn't see that, I was just guessing... After all, there are many things about the dragon bloodline in the human world. You admitted it yourself, but it has nothing to do with me."
Tuoba Feiyan's expression became much colder: "Do you think this is a joke? I can tell you clearly that this is a nightmare. And this nightmare is so close to us!"
Zhang Fan didn’t quite understand, but Tuoba Feiyan stood up and left!
He was not given an answer.
"My friend, people like you who go to the North Sea without any preparation are usually looking for death. I have prepared six days' worth of food, would you like to take some?"
The man in black who had exchanged the sword with him before came up to him carrying a small backpack.
Zhang Fan looked up, took out a big thick pancake from his backpack, took a bite without hesitation! Then he looked up and stared at him.
"You just mentioned a treasure that could make the ruthless Guigu Sect show mercy? What is that treasure? Why would they make an exception and accept a mortal into their sect if he brings it back?"
The man in black stared at him for a few seconds, then sat down opposite him.
"You really don't know anything?"
"Now that I know, do I need to ask you?" Zhang Fan smiled heartlessly.
“Okay, then I’ll tell you!” The man in black took the thick pancake from Zhang Fan, tore off a small piece, and said while eating: “The North Sea is known as the Land of Fallen Gods! It is said that in the prehistoric times, the Heavenly Saint and the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou fought each other! However, no one knows whether it is true or not! And in the North Sea, there is a special crystal that was brought out in the early years! It is said that it can increase a person’s lifespan, and even the smallest crystal can extend a person’s lifespan by ten years!”
Zhang Fan paused: "Only ten years? Isn't this too short..."
"Ten years is indeed not a long time. For a cultivator, it is just like a fleeting moment." The black man shook his head and added, "But this kind of crystal has no side effects. If you master enough of it, even if you don't cultivate to the point of immortality, you can live longer than anyone else."
Hearing this, Zhang Fan suddenly realized.
In his opinion, this thing is not worth mentioning!
Although it can extend a person's lifespan by ten years, if it were in some ordinary small world, it would still be considered very expensive.
But in the Three Realms, many kinds of elixirs can achieve the same effect, and there will not be too much loss of medicinal power.
Therefore, this method is only used by the truly strong and the weakest of the weak.
The real strong man has eaten all the elixirs, and his life span cannot be added up! As a last resort, he searches everywhere for a chance to survive. This kind of crystal without side effects is naturally extremely important!
The weak, on the other hand, do not have the resources to purchase other elixirs and can only rely on this kind of crystal to survive and prolong their lifespan!
Therefore, the North Sea will inevitably become a treasure land coveted by both the strong and the weak.
"This place is so weird, why would there be a caravan passing through it?"
Zhang Fan asked casually!
"It's not the Dragon Clan!" The man in black shook his head. "On the surface, the Dragon Clan takes the human city very seriously. There are also strong Dragon Clan warriors who transform into humans and enter the city for training. Even the current Lord of Bibo City and the generals all have descendants of the Dragon Clan. But what's the use? They never open their cultivation methods to the human race. Only by becoming their wives or concubines, or being their subordinates, can you have the opportunity to practice! As for the special crystals obtained from the Land of Fallen Gods, the human race has never enjoyed them. After all, the human race is just a tool!"
Hearing this, Zhang Fan suddenly realized!
Although the man in black didn't say everything, he already understood that the dragons kept the human race here for the crystals of the Falling God Land.
But these dragons are very smart and know that if they forcefully oppress them, they will most likely incur the wrath of God and the resentment of the people!
By then, the territory they had managed to preserve with great difficulty might also be divided up by the Heavenly Court.
So they could only take a step back, leaving most people in peace and contentment, with only a small number of practitioners being driven by them. Although it seemed that they had suffered a huge loss!
But you have to know that these people who seek to practice are the most tenacious people among the human race!
In a place where immortals and dragons are suppressed, if these people cannot find that special crystal, ordinary people will only be cannon fodder. What is the use of having more people?
This is exactly the purpose of the dragon clan, but it comes at the cost of the lives of young and annoying people to extend the lives of their strong dragon clan members.
Before they knew it, a thick pancake as big as an average person's chest was eaten up by the two of them!
The man in black yawned with satisfaction and stood up slowly!
"My friend, it's easy for me to get along with you! If you accompany me into the North Sea, I think I will no longer be so afraid!"
Zhang Fan smiled: "I'm not as easily moved as you. Even if you die in front of me, I won't even sigh for you."
The man in black laughed loudly: "That's great... But I still want to advise you that you shouldn't set foot in the North Sea at this time. Before you set out, you should leave first. When you have learned something, maybe it will be the best time to set out!"
Zhang Fan nodded calmly: "Don't worry, I have my own ideas! Maybe I can live longer than you."
The man in black nodded: "In that case, I really hope that you will be one of the survivors! And I should have a good rest. This time, there may be no chance to turn back."
