Chapter 172 The Source of the Sea Tribe’s Invasion
"You're going too?" Lu Yi was stunned, a little surprised.
"Yes, I am strong enough to protect myself." Yun Xi nodded: "I want to go with you."
When Lu Yi heard this, he thought about it.
Indeed, with Yun Xi's combat power, Lu Yi doesn't have to worry too much when facing a powerful person in the fusion realm.
The only problem is that Yun Xi is now an immortal body, which is too eye-catching.
But this is not a big problem. With the Thousand Transformations Technique, Yun Xi can change into other appearances and no one can detect it.
In addition, Lu Yi has mastered the Small Void Technique and has the Sky-Breaking Boat, so even if there is really a problem, Lu Yi can protect Yun Xi.
Thinking about it this way, Lu Yi felt that there would really be no problem if Yun Xi went.
On the contrary, it is beneficial. After all, when they are on the road, the two can practice with each other from time to time and improve their strength through dual cultivation.
Lu Yi thought about this and said, "No problem. Do you want to tell Granny Hua? Don't let Granny Hua beat me up when she sees that I kidnapped you."
Yun Xi smiled slightly: "Mother-in-law likes you very much, how can she bear to let you go?"
Then she paused and said, "I'll go tell my mother-in-law, in case she finds out I'm not here and gets worried."
Lu Yi nodded.
Then Yun Xi and Lu Yi came to the cave where Grandma Hua was.
After seeing Lu Yi, Grandma Hua was stunned for a moment. Lu Yi came so quietly that Grandma Hua didn't even know about it.
Then she showed a look of surprise and welcomed Lu Yi's arrival.
"Yier, why didn't you tell me you were here?" Granny Hua complained, "That way I could welcome you."
Lu Yi smiled and said, "Grandma Hua, you are too polite. It's a bit awkward."
"That's true." Granny Hua smiled happily: "I also want to thank you for giving Yunxi the nine-colored lily of the valley. If not for that, Yunxi would not have been able to transform into an immortal body."
Granny Hua naturally knew why Yun Xi had transformed.
Lu Yi smiled and said, "Yun Xi is mine, so this is naturally what I should do."
Granny Hua nodded repeatedly: "It is Yunxi's blessing to meet you."
She was very happy for Yun Xi.
Afterwards, Yun Xi told Lu Yi that she wanted to follow him to the sea clan battlefield.
When she heard this, Grandma Hua was still a little hesitant, but after hearing Lu Yi's assurance, Grandma Hua nodded and agreed.
She trusts Lu Yi very much.
However, Granny Hua kept reminding Yun Xi and Lu Yi to be careful when they were outside.
Lu Yi and Yun Xi naturally nodded in agreement.
Afterwards, Granny Hua invited several of Wanhua Sect's incarnation elders to have a home-cooked meal with Yun Xi and Lu Yi, as a token of welcome for Lu Yi to Wanhua Sect.
The next morning, Lu Yi and Yun Xi quietly left the Wanhua Sect's protective formation.
Originally, Lu Yi planned to stay with Yun Xi for a few more days before leaving, but now that Yun Xi plans to go with him, Lu Yi naturally doesn't need to stay here.
After leaving the sect protection formation, Yun Xi glanced behind her, with a strange look on her pretty face: "Lu Yi, you can break through this sect protection formation so easily?"
Lu Yi smiled and said, "After all, this is the sect protection formation I carved. I know all its advantages and disadvantages, so it will be smooth sailing."
Yun Xi wrinkled her nose and said with a smile: "My Wanhua Sect has become your back garden. Have you ever sneaked in before?"
Lu Yi rolled his eyes: "Of course not, if I had come to Wanhua Sect before, why wouldn't I have come to find you?"
Yun Xi smiled and said, "That may not be the case. My sisters and brothers miss you very much. Whenever I attend a banquet, they ask me about you."
Lu Yi looked strange. Is this guy jealous? He said seriously, "That's their business. It has nothing to do with me. In my eyes, Yun Xi, you are much more attractive than your senior sisters and junior sisters."
Yun Xi smiled happily.
Then the two of them used the Thousand Transformations Technique. Lu Yi transformed into a handsome young cultivator, and Yun Xi transformed into a pretty female cultivator.
Both of them have great attainments in the art of transformation. Even if a cultivator who is familiar with them stands in front of them, it would be difficult to recognize them.
Afterwards, Lu Yi and Yun Xi headed eastwards towards the sea clan battlefield.
In that year, the top leaders of the Eastern Region coalition forces held discussions with the powerful men of the Sea Clan, and the final result was quite bad. During the discussion, both sides came to blows and ended up parting on bad terms.
However, this also let the Eastern Region cultivators know why the sea people suddenly launched a large-scale attack on the inland.
There are too many sea cultivators, even more than the cultivators from the Five Realms. They are also divided into many factions. The battles between these forces are even bloodier than those in the inland areas, and they are also fighting for territory and resources.
For unknown reasons, decades ago, the Xuanhuang Dragon Python clan suddenly had three terrifying beings at the level of virtual immortals.
The so-called virtual immortal is the one who, although failed in the tribulation, managed to save his life from the thunder tribulation.
This kind of existence usually undergoes the tempering of the immortal calamity, and its physical body is transformed into an immortal body.
The so-called immortal body is different from the immortal body. The immortal body represents a talent that is enough to become an immortal, or even stronger, while the immortal body is the transformation that occurs when the mortal body goes through the immortal catastrophe and is baptized by the immortal power. This is a process of transformation from mortal to immortal life level.
However, because he has not truly become an immortal and has not converted the spiritual power in his body into immortal power, there is still some gap compared to immortals.
Therefore, this kind of existence is called virtual immortal.
But even if he is a virtual immortal, he is still an immortal. Naturally, he is far superior to the cultivators who are undergoing tribulation, and his strength is extremely terrifying.
Generally speaking, this kind of existence is extremely difficult to come into being.
After all, how terrible is it to cross the immortal tribulation? When a cultivator who crosses the tribulation faces such a thunder tribulation, he will either succeed or fail.
If you succeed, you will naturally ascend to become an immortal, but if you fail, everything will basically be reduced to ashes, and thousands of years of practice will be turned into smoke.
Even in history, there are only a very small number of people who can survive after failing to survive the tribulation.
No one had expected that the Xuanhuang Dragon Python clan would produce three virtual immortals!
And it’s the same period!
This incident shocked the entire sea clan.
After all, these three virtual immortals were originally tribulation-crossing cultivators from the Xuanhuang Dragon Python clan. They had been silent for a long time and had almost no hope of ascending to heaven. They would definitely die in the tribulation of transcendence.
There must be some unknown reasons why the three monks who were transcending tribulation have now turned into immortals.
Some people said that the three virtual immortals were born because the Xuanhuang Dragon Python clan obtained some extremely rare immortal treasures.
Some people also said that an immortal from another world appeared among the sea clan, and he transformed these monks who were transcending tribulation into virtual immortals.
Some people also say that the Xuanhuang Dragon Python clan has discovered some kind of strange power in the void. Although this power cannot make people become immortals, it can save people's lives when they are undergoing the immortal tribulation.
There are all kinds of speculations.
However, no matter how the sea clan cultivators speculated, the fact was that the Xuanhuang Dragon Python clan had three more terrifying virtual immortals.
Because of the existence of the three virtual immortals, the Black Water Dragon Clan, which is closest to the Xuanhuang Dragon Python force, was naturally the first to be affected.
The strength of a powerful virtual immortal is simply not something that a cultivator who is undergoing tribulation can resist.
The Xuanhuang Dragon Python clan only had one virtual immortal who came to the Black Water Jiao clan's territory and with one palm he turned a tribulation-crossing cultivator into ashes.
This made the Black Water Dragon Clan completely speechless and almost frightened.
However, as one of the dominant races of the sea clan, the Black Water Dragon clan naturally possessed the clan's magical weapon. When the magical weapon exploded, they were able to resist the virtual immortal of the Black and Yellow Dragon Python clan.
However, the Xuanhuang Dragon Python clan is itself a overlord-level force and also possesses a clan-protecting immortal weapon. Not only that, they also have three virtual immortals.
With such strength, the Black Water Dragon Clan was simply unable to resist, and in the end could only submit to the Black Yellow Dragon Python Clan and become a subordinate force of the Black Yellow Dragon Python Clan.
The Xuanhuang Dragon Python clan was still not satisfied and continued to advance and force their way forward, taking over a large amount of sea clan territories, especially in the eastern sea area. Almost all areas became the territory of the Xuanhuang Dragon Python.
Afterwards, the Black and Yellow Dragon Python even began to advance towards the deep sea area.
Even so, the Xuanhuang Dragon Python Clan still ordered the Black Water Jiao Clan to lead the major sea clans to invade the Eastern Region.
It has to be said that after having three virtual immortals, the ambitions of the Xuanhuang Dragon Python clan became extremely great.
After all, Xuxian is too strong. Even the cultivators who are undergoing tribulation cannot match him. With such strength, he will naturally have enough ambition.
They not only want to unify the entire sea tribe, but also plan to take over the inland as well.
If the Xuanhuang Dragon Python really unifies the entire Tianming, then the Xuanhuang Dragon Python clan will obtain a large amount of resources. It is conceivable how great the benefits will be.
While the Xuanhuang Dragon Python clan was still working on unifying the sea clan, the Black Water Dragon also led a group of sea clan cultivators and began to attack the inland.
Because of the terrifying power of the Black and Yellow Dragon Python, they had no intention of negotiating peace with the cultivators of the Eastern Region. They just hoped to take the Eastern Region into their possession.
For this reason, both sides refused to give in and have been fighting until now.
Fortunately, although the Xuanhuang Dragon Python has three virtual immortals, it is not so easy to unify the sea clan, and it has not been able to free itself until now.
The Eastern Region coalition is also quite powerful, possessing several holy sites of immortal sects.
It has been several decades since the sea clan invaded the Eastern Region. Ever since the Eastern Region coalition has been inviting cultivators to join the coalition to resist the sea clan, some of them were recruiting targets of the sects, and some were independent cultivators attracted by the rewards for military merit.
The Eastern Region coalition forces expanded rapidly, fighting back and forth with the Sea Clan, and even pushed the battlefield a little closer to the east.
But even so, the fighting between the two sides on the battlefield was still quite fierce.
The sea clan monks who were suppressed by the Xuanhuang Dragon Python clan continued to join the battlefield, and their strength was not much weaker than that of the Eastern Region coalition forces.
Lu Yi and Yun Xi headed eastward. As they got closer to the sea clan battlefield, the land became more and more desolate.
Lu Yi and Yun Xi walked through many sect areas, and they were basically deserted. Some even had signs of fierce fighting, with blood and corpses all over the ground, and the original palaces had turned into ruins.
"This place should not have been invaded by the sea clan, right? It's still some distance away from the battlefield, so why are there such traces of fierce fighting?" Yun Xi asked in confusion, looking at the broken eaves and walls.
Lu Yi shook his head: "Once there is chaos, there will always be cultivators who want to fish in troubled waters. Even when facing their own people, they will turn into bandits. This sect may have been done by a cultivator force that withdrew from the battlefield of the sea clan."
Yun Xi was smart, so when she heard this, she blinked and nodded slightly to show that she understood.
These broken sect areas had obviously been looted, with almost no resources and even few living creatures.
In addition to the sect areas, there are also some cities and towns for mortals.
When disaster strikes, powerful monks may be able to escape, but for mortals, the vast land is filled with various dangerous beasts. If they leave the towns where they live safely, they will not be able to survive and can only leave their fate to God.
The monks in the town all had worried expressions and seemed a little numb at times, but they were still working and farming.
Lu Yi talked with a few of the old men and realized that a passing immortal had told them about the invasion of the sea clan. Unfortunately, they could only wait quietly for the disaster to fall from the sky.
Such is the fate of mortals.
The ancient city has also become a little desolate, but it is much better than the towns, and many monks stay here.
Some of these cultivators are local cultivators with low strength, only at the Qi training stage or the foundation building stage. With such strength, it is extremely dangerous for them to walk in the wilderness, especially at such a dangerous moment as now.
These monks, like ordinary people, can only stay on the land where they were born and raised, quietly waiting for the judgment of fate.
There are also some who are quite powerful, some have even reached the Nascent Soul Transformation Realm.
Lu Yi and Yun Xi were in a restaurant, quietly listening to the monks' conversation.
Several powerful cultivators were talking. Their strength was all at the Nascent Soul stage, and the old man in the lead was at the Divine Transformation level.
"Now our Eastern Region coalition seems to have the upper hand, and there is a good hope that we can drive those sea creatures back to the sea! Going at this time will be less dangerous, and we can also make some military achievements and obtain various resources." The old man who has transformed into a god said with a smile that everything is under control.
"Brother Wang Dao is so wise! No wonder Brother Wang Dao can cultivate to the Spirit Transformation Realm!" A middle-aged man in the Nascent Soul Realm complimented with a smile on his face.
"Hahaha, we independent cultivators are always inferior to the cultivators from the big sects. With so many resources, we need to use our brains if we want to improve. If we want to practice and improve peacefully, safety comes first." The old man who has reached the state of spiritual transformation spoke calmly about his experience.
A group of Nascent Soul cultivators also nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, if we practice peacefully and steadily and find some opportunities to obtain some resources, even we can reach the peak of the immortal path." A somewhat young cultivator nodded repeatedly.
"Moreover, we independent cultivators must stick together. This way, we can help each other and be safer!"
Lu Yi felt a little strange when listening to the words of these casual cultivators.
These monks are very promising! Each of them puts safety first, and each of them practices the art of escape, discussing how to escape when facing a monk who is stronger than themselves.
After listening to them, Lu Yi felt that they were very awesome and could be compared with his own head master Wu Qingfeng.
I remember that when Qingzhou was in chaos, the sect leader relied on his extremely powerful escape technique to walk a group of Blood Spirit Sect and Heavenly Snake Sect's Divine Transformation monks around like walking dogs.
Yun Xi, who was standing next to him, also had a strange expression on her face and couldn't help but smile.
"Where should we wait? To the area where the female sword fairy of the Divine Sword Sect is? I heard that the female sword fairy is just a Cave Void cultivator, and she has killed powerful fusion cultivators. It must be safer in that area, right?" A young cultivator said with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
"How foolish! How could she go there?" The old man slapped the table, feeling grief-stricken. "Although the female sword fairy is a peerless evildoer, not much worse than the legendary evildoer from Qingzhou, such an evildoer will definitely be targeted by the sea clan. If the sea clan sends a great Mahayana master to strangle the evildoer, she may be able to escape, but what about us? If we follow her, our chances of death will definitely be high!"
The old man's words made everyone look at each other in confusion, and there was silence for a while.
"What Brother Wang Dao said makes a lot of sense! I think so too." A middle-aged woman with an ordinary face nodded slightly.
"Yes, such a demonic figure who has attracted so much attention must be a thorn in the eyes of the sea people. It is impossible for her not to be noticed by the strong men of the sea people. If we follow her, I am afraid we will not live long." Another middle-aged man also nodded.
Although the young monk was somewhat unwilling, after thinking about it, he sighed: "Brother Wang Dao is right, life is the most important."
"Then Brother Wang Dao, where do you think we should go?" asked a middle-aged man.
The old man who had reached the state of transformation smiled confidently: "Don't worry, I have already chosen someone."
"Oh? Please explain it in detail, Brother Wang Dao!" Many cultivators looked at the old man who had achieved spiritual enlightenment curiously.
Not only them, even Lu Yi and Yun Xi were a little curious.
The old man smiled slightly, then said, "Let's go with Nangong Moyu and the others from Baiyun Sect!"
"Nangong Moyu? Who is he?" Many Nascent Soul cultivators looked confused.
Lu Yi and Yun Xi both had strange expressions and looked at each other.
What the hell? Following Senior Brother Nangong Moyu?
The old man smiled and said, "You all know the Baiyun Sect, right? It's the evil sect in Qingzhou."
"Of course we know that."
"This Nangong Moyu is a disciple of the sect where that monster belongs. I have inquired about it. That sect has several cultivators who are quite smart. Relying on various terrains, they have ambushed and killed many sea cultivators. Although there are no sea cultivators with particularly strong strength, they have the advantage of being long-lasting and safe! This is one aspect. Another aspect is that these cultivators are disciples of the Baiyun Sect. Judging from the talent of that monster, I am afraid that he will have a great hope of ascending to become an immortal in the future. The Baiyun Sect is an immortal sect. It will also be beneficial for us if we have a good relationship with them now." The old man who has reached the state of transformation said with a smile.
Lu Yi: “…”
He was shocked. This old man is really something. He thinks so much?
Yun Xi also had a strange expression. She glanced at Lu Yi and said in a voice transmission, "This fellow Taoist seems to be quite smart."
Lu Yi was speechless, and said in a voice transmission: "Is this probably the survival wisdom of casual cultivators?"
Yun Xi smiled.
The Nascent Soul cultivators looked at each other and smiled in surprise: "As expected of Brother Wang Dao! He is so amazing! If we can get in touch with that evildoer, it will be a good thing for us."
"Brother Wang Dao is very thoughtful. I admire him!"
The monks spoke one after another.
"In that case, then it's decided!" said the old man who had reached the state of spiritual transformation with a smile.
At this time, Lu Yi coughed and smiled slightly, "Everyone, we are also planning to go to the Sea Clan battlefield. After hearing what this Taoist brother said, we also want to go with the Baiyun Sect team. Otherwise, take the two of us with you?"
Thank you for the 5000 points reward from Lai Yuezhi, thank you for the 100 points reward from Jiangnan Yuji, thank you for the 100 points reward from Ningfan Ji Qingling, thank you for the 100 points reward from the Ninth Quarter, thank you for the 100 points reward from Qingshen Mengyue~ (End of this chapter)
