Chapter 443: Sea Raid
The East China Sea is vast, with waves sparkling due to the reflection of flames in the near distance and endless smoke in the far distance.
The vast ancient sea has no end in sight.
The ship was burning, accompanied by thick smoke.
“Plop!”
Amidst the ripples of magical energy, ships were shattered, cultivators kept falling into the water, and their bodies floated on the sea.
"Run! It's Qin Feng, the new immortal master of Lei Xiao Sect."
"Thunder Method Mysterious Ice...Desolate Cloud Beast..."
…
On the sea, martial artists with higher levels of cultivation stepped on the clouds of magical energy, walked on the water, and fought with their pursuers.
The screams, sounds of burning, and the sounds of fighting made the entire sea area noisy and boiling.
Standing on a white sand ridge only a few dozen feet away from the sea, the strong wind made Li Weiyi's clothes rustle. He watched the killing as a bystander.
"These are the ships of the Dao Cult. They want to withdraw from the three islands and defend the islands with Longmen, Baiyi, Huaiyi and Jiaoyi." Yang Qingxi watched carefully and recognized several old figures of the Daozhong realm flying over the sea.
Li Weiyi was also observing.
It was discovered that most of those who besieged the Dao Sect's ships were disciples of the Lei Xiao Sect, and a small number were masters of the Imperial Court's East China Sea Camp.
It has to be said that in the battle at Lingxiao Living Realm, the Leixiao Sect gained a huge advantage.
The powerful families in the western borders fought against the demon army and were severely damaged, almost wiped out. In the battle of Lingxiao City, more than half of the court masters were killed or injured.
Snow Sword Tang Ting fought a desperate battle with the army of undead spirits, and Zuoqiu Men Ting attacked the underground fairy palace; all of them were tough battles.
Now that the hard battle is over, the Lei Xiao Sect, which has preserved the most strength, has begun to pick peaches everywhere and expand its territory. Although the Rice Sect's main hall was breached, since so many people escaped, it can be seen that the real resources and treasures are on these fugitives.
It can be expected that the entire seven states in the eastern border will be taken under the command of the Lei Xiao Sect. The dead area in the southeastern Netherland will also become the coverage area of their influence.
Next, the major forces of the human race will have to go all out to rob the resources and treasures of the thirty-one states in the southeastern Nether Territory. The Lei Xiao Sect has the geographical advantage and can take the initiative.
The opportunity is right in front of us. If the Lei Xiao Sect has the ambition to make progress, conquer the Longmen and Sandao bandits in the East China Sea, and stabilize the rear, it is not impossible to become the master of the Lingxiao habitat again.
"Strange, there are dozens of giant ships here, many martial artists and supplies, but why can't we see the immortal giants from the Rice Sect here? This shouldn't be the case!" Li Weiyi felt confused.
Yang Qingxi said: "Your Highness, Son of God, didn't Venerable Nan tell you the legend of Daozhou?"
"Daozhou?" Li Weiyi said.
Yang Qingxi said: "Legend has it that the Divine Cult has mastered the imperial art of reversing the Netherworld into a Living World. In the Netherworld of the Dead, they have created a small living environment specifically for growing rice. The so-called experience of Sikong Jingyuan and Sikong Yanlun entering the Netherworld of the Dead is probably just a process of reclaiming wasteland."
"The master of the Tianli Temple is mysterious, and the Tianli Temple can always produce soul seeds refined from powerful dead souls. It is very likely that the master of the Tianli Temple is sitting over there and subdued the dead souls during the land reclamation."
"If I'm not mistaken, the Dao Sect practitioners who went to the East China Sea were abandoned to deceive others."
"The real elites and strong men of the Dao Cult must retreat to Daozhou. Daozhou is likely to be somewhere in the mysterious land behind us."
Li Weiyi was not surprised that Daoism possessed nine pages of the "Book of Shining Stars" and could reverse the underworld.
However, it is not easy to maintain a living environment in a secluded place.
Li Weiyi looked at Yang Qingchan.
"Don't look at me, I don't know the exact location of Daozhou. After I was caught, I was refined into a soul seed." She said.
"Look, there is a master hiding on the ship." Yang Qingxi said.
“Crash!”
On the sea, a several-meter-long magical boat flew out from the interior of a huge burning ship and quickly went away like a streak of light.
On the magic boat, there stood a straight figure. The quality of his magic energy was extremely high, and the speed of the boat under his feet was terrifyingly fast.
The figure on the boat, after a simple disguise, was wearing a yellow monk's robe like the one worn by Buddha to save thieves, and a bamboo hat on his head.
It was none other than Fu Wenyan, a favored child of the young emperor level at Du'e Temple.
Du'e Temple teaches everyone. Martial artists from all major habitats in the southern part of Yingzhou, as long as they have high enough qualifications, can go and take the examination to become disciples.
People like Mo Tong and Xie Chucai from the Demon Kingdom faction are both gifted and have powerful forces behind them.
The reason why the two of them worshipped in Du'e Temple was because the Demonic Kingdom intended to demonize Du'e Temple and control it imperceptibly. They also wanted to compete for the position of the true disciple of Du'e Temple and use the reputation of the Martial Arts Emperor to protect themselves and travel the world.
Du'e Temple and several super ancient sects in the southern part of Yingzhou, their true disciples are not true disciples, but the descendants of the Emperor of Martial Arts.
To become a true disciple of such an ancient religion is to inherit the mantle of the Emperor of Martial Arts. Overnight, you will become famous in the prosperous land of southern Yingzhou and become a hot figure in all major habitats.
It is like having a golden body protecting them. Any strong man of the older generation who wants to touch them must consider carefully whether they have lived enough.
Fu Wenyan was born into the "Fu Family" of Zongsheng Xuehai. He became a disciple at Du'e Temple, also hoping to compete for the position of "Du'e True Transmission".
Even though Madam Ye, the ancestor of the Fu family, is already a top-notch powerhouse among the transcendents, her status is far inferior to that of the abbot of Du'e Temple.
How many geniuses and heroes were blocked by that step of the Son of Martial Arts, including Qilin Zang, the Prince of the Demon Kingdom, Yu Yaozi, Lord Lan... Too many peerless figures stopped at the level below the Son of Martial Arts and could not break through for thousands of years.
Now that Madam Ye has died in Lingxiao City and the strongest person in the Fu family has fallen, the position of "The True Transmission of Du'e" has become even more important to Fu Wenyan.
The talent of the young emperor is just the threshold to compete for the true teachings of the ancient religion.
Just like a group of princes competing for the position of crown prince.
However, for Fu Wenyan, how to escape from Lingxiao Living Realm and return to Du'e Temple or Zongsheng Xuehai is the top priority. Not only are the masters of the court looking for him everywhere, they are also trying to eliminate him.
There are also some powerful men of unknown identities who want to kill him and seize the opportunity from him.
Anyone who can become a young emperor has a heaven-defying opportunity.
A prodigy at the inheritor level who seizes his opportunity may be promoted to the young emperor. At the very least, he can be promoted to the top inheritor level.
With such temptation, which aspiring martial artist wouldn't want to take a risk?
Just like the desolation and emptiness, it hunts down Li Weiyi.
Fu Wenyan had previously gone to Qiuzhou, hoping to find the immortal master Zhuang Shiyan from Du'e Temple and seek refuge.
However, the Zuoqiumenting and Daojiao fought fiercely in Fuzhou and Qiuzhou, killing people in blood. He was targeted by an unknown strong man, fled all the way, concealed his identity, hid in the defeated Daojiao army, and was dragged to the East China Sea.
He no longer placed his hopes on others and planned to take the risk of crossing the East China Sea and escape from the Lingxiao habitat from the East China Sea.
Suddenly.
A huge whirlpool appeared on the sea surface.
Fu Wenyan looked around, and all he could see were swirling ripples.
He and the magic boat have sunk below the sea level.
An extremely terrifying aura came from the center of the vortex.
"It's him again."
Fu Wenyan was nervous and angry. He was targeted by that man in Fuzhou and narrowly escaped death several times. He survived and lived to this day only by relying on the life-saving methods carried by his clan.
A bronze paintbrush flew out from Zutian, turned into a seven-foot-long brush, and drew a line on the sea.
“Wow!”
More than eight thousand scriptures emerged, and the brush tore open the whirlpool and separated the sea water.
After breaking the opponent's Taoist technique, Fu Wenyan abandoned the boat, flew up into the sky, and fled on the Ink Mist Bridge. He knew very well that he was a giant in the Immortal Realm and he was no match for him.
"boom!"
A black shadow appeared from the bottom of the water and flew out like an arrow, chasing after Fu Wenyan.
The black shadow was wrapped in a black robe, not daring to release his Dao heart to imprison Fu Wenyan, for fear that his identity would be discovered by the masters of Lei Xiao Sect and Donghai Camp.
A giant in the realm of immortality killed the young emperor in the realm of Daozhong in Du'e Temple and seized the opportunity and Dao fruit. Once it is exposed, will Du'e Temple and the Fu family let it go?
It was precisely because of the need to act cautiously and remain restrained that Fu Wenyan escaped repeatedly.
Yang Qingchan frowned: "The figure of the man in black looks so familiar."
"It's Yao Qian! What he performed underwater was the Sui Zong's spinning clothes technique." Yang Qingxi said.
"Damn the memory residue."
The dead spirit in Yang Qingchan's body was very angry.
Li Weiyi didn't know who was being hunted by Yao Qian, but he had a guess in his mind.
The only person who can cultivate to the Dao Seed Realm, wield an eighth-grade Thousand-Character Instrument, and is a follower of Confucianism and Taoism, is the young emperor of Du'e Temple.
"Hurry and go."
Li Weiyi sensed that a powerful force was coming from the sea and falling on him.
Not sure who it is.
If this was Yao Qian's intention, he would probably change direction immediately and kill him.
Li Weiyi wrapped Yang Qingxi and Yang Qingchan with his magical energy, affixed a magic talisman to them, and fled quickly in the white desert, quickly escaping from the opponent's mental perception range.
He looked at Yang Qingchan: "Did we go in the wrong direction before?"
Li Weiyi remembered that on the map of the Netherworld of the Dead, Shazhou and Haizhou were close to the East China Sea. Yuzhou, where the Phoenix Blood Tree was located, was further inland to the east of Haizhou, thousands of miles away from the sea.
Yang Qingchan said, "I deliberately led the way this way to avoid the Water Beaver Fairy. The direction the Water Beaver Fairy was heading was the direction to Yuzhou. If we had followed the direction it fled, we would have probably run into it."
Li Weiyi was curious: "Why would a beaver living in Huangjiang River cross the desert and go to Yuzhou with so much difficulty?"
"I heard it say that it was going to report to a mermaid named Princess Dengfeng, a mermaid from the jellyfish clan." Yang Qingxi said.
Li Weiyi said: "Yuzhou is inland, how come the jellyfish came ashore?"
"The Phoenix Blood Tree and the many resources controlled by the dead are attractive to cultivators of any race. The East Sea Monster Clan and the Netherworld of the Dead are restraining and competing with each other. Otherwise, why could Lingxiao Living Realm be stable for a thousand years?"
Yang Qingxi added: "It is confirmed that Lord Lan has fallen, the army of the dead has been defeated, and they have retreated to the border city of Huangjiang River with the Dao Sect. The Water Beaver Fairy will naturally report the news immediately, and the sea monsters stationed in Yuzhou will no longer have any concerns."
Li Weiyi suddenly realized.
It’s normal to think about it. The area ruled by Lord Lan is even larger than Ling Xiao’s habitat.
With his death, the battle to divide Lingxiao's habitat turned into a war to plunder the surrounding areas of the Southeast Netherworld. What kind of resources and wealth is this?
Li Weiyi narrowed his eyes and said, "Doesn't that mean that if we go too late, we won't even be able to pick up a single leaf from the Phoenix Blood Tree? How do we leave now?"
Having a map does not mean you can do whatever you want. Many places are restricted areas.
We still have to question Yang Qingchan, the "local".
Yang Qingchan said, "If we go around the coast, we will have to travel another eight thousand miles. Just as he said, it's too late to go, so it's better not to go at all."
