Chapter 1324
Quasi-5th-level Treasure
This person is none other than the ancestor of Xinghai Pavilion who had attained the state of being a deity.
In fact, he was already here during the previous battle, but no one noticed him.
As for why he didn't help, that's a long story.
With his powerful spiritual sense, he found that there was not only him, a god, hiding in the dark here, but even the ancestor of the sea dragon clan and the demon poison Taoist master of the Red Buddha Demon Sect who had some hatred towards Ling Pengyun were also here.
In this case, if he tried to rescue Tianshui Lao Zhenjun and others, the situation here would become even more dangerous, and even Ling Pengyun, who had escaped now, might die here.
For this reason, he could only watch everything happen.
Therefore, he was actually very helpless.
After all, Tianshui Lao Zhenjun, who died tragically by self-destructing his Nascent Soul, was one of his few direct disciples.
The other dozen or so Yuanying are also the core figures of Xinghai Pavilion.
…………
A few hours later.
This is the deepest part of the Demon Sea and the Small Demon Realm.
The fourth-grade superior demon island, Demon Island, which was once the last stronghold of both demons and monsters, is now protected by a righteous fourth-grade superior formation.
It was precisely for this reason that Ling Pengyun, who had just rushed back from the outside world, was stopped. He looked at the protective formation of the Demon Island and smiled.
"It only took me a few days to chase the sea dragons and other monsters with Tianshui and others. But in such a short time, this magic island has once again raised a protective formation that is somewhat connected to the nearby earth veins. It is particularly strange."
'Before, among the tens of millions of monks who stayed here to kill the remaining demons on the island, it is estimated that only Master Xingdong could do it.'
"It doesn't matter. With this formation, even if the old demon Red Sword and the other Nascent Soul demons survive, I and the tens of millions of cultivators on the island can still defend this place."
'In this way, the battle to destroy the Demon Sea Demon Realm can be considered a smooth one.'
'Even more, after time has accumulated and the sect has sent enough people to garrison here, it is estimated that a high-level formation master will be arranged to convert the fourth-grade upper-grade magic vein in the Demon Island into a spiritual vein. After all, we are righteous monks and it is difficult for us to make perfect use of that magic vein.'
"And by then, the defensive formation here will definitely be stronger."
Then, he withdrew his breath-hiding means and triggered the righteous defense formation of the Demon Island.
In just a moment, a ray of light rose from the Demon Island and stopped in front of Ling Pengyun, and finally the figure of the old formation master Xingdong appeared.
He was the only Nascent Soul of the Xinghai Pavilion who did not join Ling Pengyun and others in chasing after the Sea Dragon Clan.
However, he is not the only Nascent Soul on the Demon Island.
Among them, there are about ten to twenty Nascent Souls from the Nascent Soul forces in the immortal cultivation world of the Boundless Sea. Of course, these are only the superficial identities of those Nascent Souls.
Among them, there are many people with higher cultivation levels, who come from Xinghai Pavilion.
The reason why Xinghai Pavilion kept them on the Demon Island was very simple, which was because they were afraid that something might happen to them.
This group of Nascent Souls have extremely high status within the righteous Nascent Soul forces in the immortal cultivation world of the Boundless Sea. At the same time, they are also an important means for the Xinghai Pavilion to secretly control those forces.
In this way, if something unexpected happens to this group of Nascent Souls, I am afraid that the Nascent Soul forces under their management will also be in chaos.
If the sect wants to take control of it again in the future, it will definitely take a lot of effort.
at the same time.
Old Master Xingdong, who didn't know anything yet, saw Ling Pengyun looking particularly embarrassed and returning alone. He immediately guessed something, frowned, and asked immediately.
"Junior Brother Pengyun, why are you the only one coming back?"
Ling Pengyun sighed helplessly and told the details.
When Master Xingdong heard this, his face suddenly darkened.
“I didn’t expect it to turn out like this.”
He was in a low mood and it took a long time before he started to move.
"Nephew, our sect has suffered heavy losses this time. If the losses of the demons and monsters are not too great, I'm afraid they will come back again."
"You should follow me to the Demon Island to heal your wounds first. Although your injuries are not serious, you have used a spell to enhance your strength after all. You are still weak now. If the demons find an opportunity, it will be troublesome."
"In addition, I also need to go back to the island and use the high-level formation to seek help from my sect's base in this small demon area of the Monster Sea, Canglan Island in the Canglan Sea, and the Xinghai Island between the Thirty-Six Seas of the Righteous Path and the Boundless Sea."
Upon hearing this, Ling Pengyun immediately agreed.
This is the only measure that can be taken to deal with the current situation.
...............
As time passes.
In a blink of an eye.
Half a month flies by.
During this period, some Nascent Souls of the Xinghai Pavilion who had broken through with the help of the self-destruction of more than ten Nascent Souls of the Xinghai Pavilion, such as the Old Lady Tianhuo, and others, also gradually returned to the Demon Island.
But the number is a bit small, only twelve.
You have to know that the total number of people who broke through before was as many as eighteen.
Even if Ling Pengyun is subtracted, there should still be seventeen people.
The Demon Island is not far from the location of the battle, and it can be traveled back and forth in half a day at most.
Under such circumstances, I am afraid that the other Nascent Souls that have not returned may have been hunted down by the demons who luckily escaped the self-detonation of Tianshui Lao Zhenjun and others.
And with the tragic deaths of these five people, Xinghai Pavilion's losses were undoubtedly even greater.
According to statistics, the total number of righteous Nascent Souls who died tragically in this final battle to encircle and suppress the demons in the sea has reached twenty-one.
And this number of Nascent Souls is enough to rival nearly half of the Nascent Souls of the Xinghai Pavilion, and is even more than the total number of Nascent Souls of all the ordinary righteous Nascent Soul forces in the immortal cultivation world of the Boundless Sea.
Therefore, even though the demons have not made a comeback in recent times, and Xinghai Pavilion has gradually and completely occupied the "small sea of demons" that the demons have driven into the world of immortal cultivation in the boundless sea, Xinghai Pavilion has not felt happy about it.
For a moment, a heavy atmosphere permeated the entire Demon Island.
at the same time.
Deep in the Demon Island.
A cave hall.
Two people were sitting here drinking tea.
"Pengyun, now that our sect has suffered such heavy losses, will the sect fight the Sea Dragon Clan again in the future?"
"True Lord Canglan", the leader of the Canglan Bihai Sect, a relatively well-known righteous Nascent Soul force in the Boundless Sea cultivation world in recent years, chatted briefly with Ling Pengyun and then asked him a question that the tens of millions of cultivators stationed in the Demon Island in recent days have paid the most attention to.
"Of course they will." "The fact that our sect suffered heavy losses in conquering this small demon sea area cannot be concealed. The Sea Dragon Clan and even the Red Buddha Demon Clan, the former master of this small demon sea area, must know about it."
"Under such circumstances, it is particularly strange that these two major forces did not take the opportunity to counterattack. This is enough to show that these two major forces suffered heavy losses due to the heroic deeds of more than ten fellow disciples including Tianshui who self-destructed their Nascent Souls. Even demon cultivators with perfect Nascent Souls such as Old Demon Chijian and Old Demon Moyuan may have been killed in the explosion."
"In this case, the Red Buddha Demon Sect in the Boundless Buddha Realm will undoubtedly have fewer people to send to our immortal cultivation world to help the Sea Dragon Clan. There is no need to worry at all."
"The Sea Dragon Clan was originally weaker than our sect, and had suffered heavy losses before the self-explosion. The clan's powerful chief elder was even killed by me and Master Tianshui."
“Therefore, I think that in the near future, not only will the sect not stop the war with the Sea Dragon Clan, but it will take this opportunity to bite off a few pieces of meat from the Sea Dragon Clan.”
Ling Pengyun analyzed.
When Master Canglan saw that Ling Pengyun, who held a certain status in the Xinghai Pavilion, thought so, he immediately calmed down, sighed deeply, and said with a smile.
"That's good. I was worried because I didn't make much contribution and didn't get many resources during the previous battle to capture the Demon Island."
Ling Pengyun had already gotten used to seeing Master Canglan acting like this.
Although Master Canglan is not only the leader of the Canglan Bihai Sect, but also the Nascent Soul Elder of the Yun Qian lineage of the Xinghai Pavilion, he can be said to have a dual identity. But in fact, the resources he can get from the Yun Qian lineage every year are not many.
Even if the Canglan Bihai Sect had obtained the fourth-grade top-grade treasure land of Canglan Island some time ago, it would be difficult to provide it with many resources in a short period of time.
And his potential is not bad. What he has condensed is a special Nascent Soul. In addition, he has extraordinary means and a firm determination to pursue the Tao.
To this end, he had planned early on to make some money during the war between the sect and the sea dragon clan to pave the way for the future.
"Master, if the rest of the island saw you like this, I'm afraid they would curse you in secret. There are many people who would dislike you at first sight."
Ling Pengyun scolded with a smile.
Although nowadays, if the Xinghe Pavilion continues to fight with the Sea Dragon Clan, the chances of winning are very high, which is a good thing.
But relatively speaking, this matter also has some risks.
"Everyone has his or her own ambitions."
Master Canglan said with a smile.
Afterwards, the two chatted for a few more words, and True Lord Canglan said goodbye and left.
.........
Another half a month passed, and the Demon Island was still calm.
After careful calculation, it has been a month since the battle to capture the demon sea area.
More than 70% of the Xinghai Pavilion's troops, as well as the ordinary Nascent Soul forces in the Boundless Sea's immortal cultivation world, have also been recuperating for a month, and it is not a good idea to just stay like this.
As for the support from Canglan Island and Xinghai Island, they also rushed over. In total, there were nearly ten Nascent Souls.
In addition, the top leaders of Xinghai Pavilion learned from the Xinghai Patriarch that many Nascent Soul demons from the Red Buddha Demon Sect and the Sea Dragon Clan had indeed died tragically in the self-explosions of Tianshui Lao Zhenjun and others, and even the old demon Moyuan had died tragically.
For this reason, after careful discussion, the high-ranking Yuanying leaders of Xinghai Pavilion in the Demon Island decided to send only a small number of troops to garrison this small demon sea area in the future, and the rest of the troops would go directly to the nearby area, using this small demon area as the source, and attack into the nearby boundless demon sea.
Ling Pengyun took into consideration that the upcoming battle would not be too intense in a short period of time. In addition, he was still injured and had an important matter to attend to, so he negotiated with the sect and stayed on the Demon Island.
However, it also shoulders the responsibility of guarding the entire Demon Sea and the Small Demon Realm.
If the demonic force in the Supreme Buddha Realm, the Red Buddha Demon Sect, intends to take back this place, he will have to go in the way.
But this situation is obviously difficult to reproduce, so this is an easy job.
at the same time.
Just after the meeting ended, Ling Pengyun met up with a middle-aged Nascent Soul who had just come from Xinghai Island to provide support.
His cultivation is at the late Nascent Soul stage, which is considered pretty good even in the Xinghai Pavilion.
Moreover, it has strong vitality and obviously does not have much lifespan.
The most crucial thing is that this person comes from the Tianshui lineage among the nine branches of Xinghai Pavilion, and is a disciple of Tianshui Lao Zhenjun, and was even regarded as his successor early on.
Perhaps it was for this reason that when Tianshui Lao Zhenjun was dying, he asked Ling Pengyun to hand over all his wealth to this person, and then he would divide a small amount of profits among Tianshui Lao Zhenjun's descendants.
In this way, it can be regarded as paving the way for the disciple, and at the same time it is also intended to bring the disciple closer to his descendants.
Although this seems useless, it is actually full of helplessness.
Although Tianshui Lao Zhenjun has many descendants, the qualifications of his descendants are average, and none of them has even reached the Nascent Soul stage.
For this reason, if no one takes care of them, I'm afraid they will just continue to hang around in Xinghai Pavilion.
There is even a possibility that he might be killed because of Tianshui Lao Zhenjun's family background.
For this reason, it would be safest to give the bulk of the profits to the disciple and ask him to help take care of his relatives in the future.
Of course, the reason why Tianshui Lao Zhenjun was so kind to that disciple was that he naturally trusted this person and knew his character.
now.
When Tianming Zhenjun, the disciple of Tianshui Lao Zhenjun, saw the storage bags that his master was going to give him, he immediately guessed his master's idea. He sighed helplessly, and couldn't help but recall the voice and appearance of Tianshui Lao Zhenjun in his mind.
It took a long while before he came to his senses.
Then he thanked Ling Pengyun.
"Junior Brother Pengyun, thank you very much for this."
"If you hadn't taken action, I'm afraid that Master's wealth would be..."
Ling Pengyun smiled and said.
"Master Uncle helped me a lot when he was alive. It's really not worth mentioning that I did such a small thing for him."
"By the way, Senior Brother Tianming, my uncle also asked me to take care of his descendants before he passed away, but I have never seen his descendants. I wonder where they are now?"
Upon hearing this, True Lord Tianming immediately understood the hidden meaning in Ling Pengyun's words.
"Master is upright and impartial, so he treats his descendants equally. Since the beginning of this war, he has arranged for those descendants to participate in the annihilation of the world in this cultivation world. They even participated in the turmoil of conquering the Demon Sea Demon Realm before."
"Now, they are all on this island. When I came to this island before, I went to look for them. Although they all suffered some injuries in this battle, fortunately they were not serious. With the pills I gave them, I think they will recover soon."
"And if you want to go meet them, I can go with you. It just so happens that a lot of Master's assets belong to Master's descendants."
Seeing this, Ling Pengyun couldn't help but reveal a look of satisfaction on his face. Then he followed True Lord Tianming to look for the descendants of True Lord Tianshui. He chatted with those people briefly and made a promise that if he encountered any trouble in the future, he could look for him once.
Such things also made the descendants of Master Tianshui, who were originally extremely sad, feel relieved, and they kept saying to Ling Pengyun.
"It is really a blessing for the ancestor to have a close friend like you."
