Haoyu Zhenxian

Chapter 354 The Unbearable Past

After sailing away from Haichang Island, the speed of the Bright Moon suddenly increased. Sixteen golden oars spread all over the ship from bow to stern.

The fish and shrimps on the way were unlucky and were smashed into powder without any resistance.

Different from the cumbersome spirit boat, every spirit boat can fly away from the sea.

Although it can't fly too high, it is still simple to cross some islands and seamounts.

"Fan Daoyou, I would like to ask, how many spirit ships are there in the Broken Star Sect?"

In the luxurious box on the top floor, Chen Ping glanced at the imposing golden oar through the window, and said casually.

At this time, there were only him and Fan Yiqiao in the private room, while Gong Lingshan was in the opposite room.

Fan Yiqiao poured a cup of hot tea, and said with a smile: "Compared with other Yuan Dan factions, the life of our sect is more difficult. There are three small spirit ships in total, two of which serve the frontline battlefields, and one stays in the sect for disciples to sail in the distant seas. .”

"Is Daoyou Fan showing off?"

Chen Ping curled his lips, and said in an unclear manner: "If we hadn't seized one from the Deng family, we don't know how long it would take for our family to have a spirit ship."

"Hey, brother Chen is still young, with hundreds of years of longevity, are you afraid that you won't be able to collect a few spirit ships?"

Fan Yiqiao handed over the tea with both hands, and said in a serious manner.

A small spirit ship sells about 40 spirit stones. With Chen Ping's worth, not to mention a few pieces, even if you buy a dozen or twenty pieces at one go, it is more than enough.

But the spirit ship is an undoubted strategic resource, just like clearing the void and transforming leaks, you can buy it without using spirit stones.

Chen Ping heard the flattery in the other party's words, and said calmly: "Does Fellow Daoist Fan have connections? I want to buy some spirit ships."

Hearing this, Fan Yiqiao's heart moved, he nodded after thinking for a while and said: "Fan knew a boat refiner in Shuangcheng, and the spirit ship that carried me was made by him."

"Fan Daoyou, can you tell me the contact information of the master?"

Chen Ping cupped his hands and said with a smile.

He is planning to equip the Xun Mine Hall with two spirit ships. After all, high-grade ores are precious things, and it is not safe to rely on spirit ships to escort them.

What's more, he still has a thousand-year-old white leaf tree king in his hand, which is also one of the materials for refining the spirit ship.

This wood has been lying in the storage ring for many years, which is pure waste.

"Why, fellow Daoist Fan is afraid that Mr. Chen will snatch the spirit ship quota of Broken Star Sect?"

Seeing that Fan Yiqiao was silent, Chen Ping tentatively said half-jokingly.

"There is no such thing as a quota. The small Yuan Dan faction in a remote area like my Broken Star Sect has not been looked down upon at all. How could it be possible to specially reserve the spirit ship to sell you?"

Fan Yiqiao patted his forehead, and said in a bitter tone: "That boat refiner is named Nie Qingniu, and he opened a Spirit Boat Pavilion in Fuyou City. Chen Daoyou went to the city to inquire for a while, but it was easy to find him. It’s extremely important, but it’s extremely difficult for brother Chen to buy the spirit ship from Nie Qingniu.”

"Floating city."

Chen Ping narrowed his eyes and whispered twice.

In order to fight against the monster clan in the Tianshou Mountain Range, the four major Jindan sects in the Inner Sea moved mountains to fill the sea, and built two strong cities, Fuyou and Yanning, near them.

The names of the two cities are taken from the ancient proverb "Floating in seclusion to fix the universe, Yan Ning to make peace in the world".

Among them, the authority of Fuyou City is controlled by Lanyuezong, Youhuomen, and the two local Golden Core forces.

And Yanning City is even more powerful, not only the four top-ranked Sword Cauldron Sects and the Sanjue Palace sit in the city, but also three additional Jindan sects.

The four sects in the Inner Sea, together with the five local Golden Core forces, are the pillars that dominate the cultivation world of Shuangcheng.

Of course, the evil cultivator camp in the Shuangcheng sea area is also controlled by several Jindan real people, but they are far inferior to the joint efforts of Jianding, Lanyue and other sects, and they hardly have much say.

Not surprisingly, Chen Ping's next stop was the Shuangcheng practice world.

Therefore, he did not want to miss any information about Shuangcheng.

Speaking of which, most of his current knowledge of Shuangcheng comes from Deng Shunqi's memory. When this person first condensed Yuandan, he once went to Fuyou City and stayed for only three months.

And Fan Yiqiao in front of him has lived for more than 400 years, and his understanding of the Yuanyan Islands is far beyond him. Of course, Chen Ping will not miss such a good opportunity to ask for advice.

"Brother Chen doesn't know something."

While sipping tea, Fan Yiqiao paused for a moment, and then said slowly: "Nie Qingniu has a weird temper and is not easy to get along with. To buy a spirit ship from him, you have to pay the corresponding spirit stones and meet some special conditions for him. If you don't agree, no matter how much money you give, he will turn away the guests."

"Since Daoyou Fan was able to get this spirit ship, it must have been Master Nie's wish."

With a flash in his eyes, Chen Ping said flatly.

Fan Yiqiao heard this, but showed a bit of embarrassment, his mouth opened, and he had an expression that it was not suitable to mention the past.

Ordinary monks may not be able to do what others want when they come here, but Chen Ping will not give up easily, he groaned coldly in his heart, and asked: "Fan Daoyou's unspeakable secrets are too much, Chen gave up Gujiao Island to Broken Star Gate, but I hope that you and I will have a good relationship from generation to generation, and we will walk together through wind and rain."

After hearing this, Fan Yiqiao's face collapsed, and he said with a wry smile: "Brother Chen misunderstood, it's not that Fan is hiding it, but that this matter is really hard to talk about."

"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Fan, Chen will definitely keep it secret for you, and won't reveal a single word to a third party."

Chen Ping swore, moved a jade stool, and picked a fresh spirit melon on the pergola of the box.

"That guy Nie Qingniu is really hateful."

Seeing Chen Ping put on the appearance of listening to the big drama, Fan Yiqiao's face became extremely ugly, but he still spoke.

After dozens of breaths, Chen Ping's face showed a look of dumbfounding, and the movement of chewing melons and fruits stopped abruptly.

Fan Yiqiao's hesitation before was all because Nie Qingniu's special request was too torturous.

It turned out that that guy raised a spirit beast, a purple lotus ferret.

This mink has the cherished blood of the sky demon, and is good at concealment.

The magic of the rules is vividly displayed in the purple lotus ferret.

Because its promotion method is completely different from ordinary monsters.

The yin and yang qi in the body of a high-ranking human monk are actually the key to the purple lotus ferret's breakthrough.

And Nie Qingniu tamed a female ferret. When Fan Yiqiao came to buy the spirit ship, this beast happened to be hovering at the threshold of the second and third ranks.

Knowing that it was such a rude and shameful request, he refused decisively from the very beginning.

But Nie Qingniu played hard and soft, and gave a considerable discount, so Fan Yiqiao reluctantly agreed.

He stayed in the backyard for half a year, sending yang energy to the little beast every day.

When Xiao Diao successfully broke through to the third level, Fan Yiqiao's vitality was greatly damaged, and it took several years to barely recover.

As for the specific details, Chen Ping tactfully did not inquire further, so as not to poke his scar.

In fact, the combination of the human race and the monster race is not such a weird thing in the cultivation world.

But the monster race is generally a big monster of the fourth and fifth ranks that can transform into the appearance of a human race, not a beastly monster race with low spiritual intelligence.

Fan Yiqiao's unbearable encounter made Chen Ping feel understanding and sympathy from the bottom of his heart, and at the same time became wary of Nie Qingniu, whom he had never met before.

Not to mention that this person is a monk in the late Yuandan period, the origin of his Taoist companion is even more terrifying.

The granddaughter of Daoist Jindan in Hanyaogu, this alone is enough to make ninety-nine percent of Yuandan monks extremely afraid.

You must know that Hanyao Valley is one of the two local Golden Core forces in Fuyou City, neither Fan Yiqiao nor Chen Ping can afford to offend them.

"Brother Chen, if you travel to Shuangcheng, you can try to get in touch with Nie Qingniu. After all, his purple lotus ferret has already advanced, so he won't ask disgusting conditions again."

Fan Yiqiao regained his normal color, and said in an admiring tone: "This person's boat-building skills are among the best in Fuyou City, not to mention small spirit ships, even medium and large spirit ships that Fan can't match, it is said that they can succeed forged."

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Fan, for your suggestion."

Chen Ping cupped his fists and said sincerely.

After this incident, the relationship between the two became much closer, and they chatted about some anecdotes about the Yuanyan Islands.

Looking at the way the two are talking and laughing, they seem to be a pair of old friends who have known each other for hundreds of years.

"I once read a record in an ancient book. Ten thousand years ago, there were sea people living in this cultivation world, but they withdrew one after another for some reason, and they no longer took half a step into Yuanyan. The reason for this is Brother Fan. Is it clear?"

After collecting a lot of information about Shuangcheng, Chen Ping suddenly remembered a question that had troubled him for many years, so he asked.

"Fan has also heard a little about this secret, but the truth behind it is probably to be found in Jiandingzong and other Jindan sects that have been passed down for thousands of years."

Fan Yiqiao shook his head, and said coldly: "Everyone knows the ferocity of the Hai Clan. When the Yuanyan Islands were ruled by this clan, our human race was enslaved by them, and the number was less than one percent of what it is today. Fan Yiqiao shook his head and said coldly. If someone had been born in that era, he would have slaughtered a few Sea Clans with his own hands, and death would be an honor."

"Brother Fan puts the righteousness of the ethnic group as the most important thing, and I admire him very much."

Chen Ping echoed perfunctorily, but his thoughts drifted elsewhere.

Fancang Sea is vast and boundless, and there are many powerful Nascent Soul Sects such as Wuxiangzhen Sect, but overall, the Sea Clan has the upper hand.

What Feng Tianyu said, the chaos in the Yuanyan Islands a hundred years later, shouldn't be closely related to the Hai Clan.

After thinking about it, Chen Ping stopped worrying.

Anyway, when the sky fell and some tall people went to the top, an unavoidable change really happened, and several Jindan sects must bear the brunt of it.

"Brother Chen, what do you remember?"

Seeing him silent for a long time, Fan Yiqiao asked curiously.

"It's still a matter of the Sea Clan."

Chen Ping fooled the past calmly, and had no intention of revealing Feng Tianyu's warning words to Fan Yiqiao.

After 100 years, Fan Yiqiao has long since disappeared without a trace. We can't expect him to break through the bottleneck and become a Jindan real person.

……

Two days later, the spirit ship finally landed slowly on a small island with little spiritual energy.

"Brother Ping, this is the temporary stronghold of the sect."

The jade hand pointed to the green valley in the center, and Gong Lingshan introduced it proactively.

Looking from a distance, I saw a huge light curtain covering the valley, emitting five colors, thick and dazzling, covering the entire camp in it.

Feeling the strength of the shield, it is obviously a third-level formation.

"How far is it from here to Jinrui Island?"

Chen Ping scanned around and asked.

"One thousand five hundred miles."

Gong Lingshan replied immediately, and said: "This sect has dispatched more than a dozen small teams to patrol day and night on the Jinrui Island route, and with the contact of the sound transmission flute, if there is any trouble in the Ni Xing Sect, we can be the first The information will be received soon."

"Brother Chen, I'll take you into the valley and get acquainted with Fellow Daoist Fang."

As he spoke, Fan Yiqiao lightly tapped his toes and floated off the boat.

Chen Ping and Gong Lingshan also left the spirit ship one after the other, and in the blink of an eye, three escaping lights flew down and rushed towards the formation.

A group of disciples on duty rushed up to greet them, and after verifying their identities, they immediately opened a passage and respectfully let the three ancestors enter behind the light curtain.

At this moment, the valley seemed to be empty and silent, but in fact it was filled with the breath of hundreds of cultivators.

Including 45 foundation builders and more than 300 qi training monks, all of them must be disciples of the Broken Star Gate who participated in the battle.

In a cave on the top of the mountain, he found an old man in the middle stage of Yuan Dan, who should be Fang Daoyou without a doubt.

"It seems that this fellow Taoist Fang has an extraordinary friendship with you, even such an important place dares to be entrusted to him to take care of."

After sweeping his consciousness, Chen Ping said to Fan Yiqiao strangely.

If the overhaul of the dignified Yuandan mid-stage is secretly invested in Jin Zhaoheng, the backbone of the stronghold of the Broken Star Gate will have no way out.

"Haha, Fan and Daoist Fang are old acquaintances. More than 200 years ago, the two of us teamed up to break open an ancient monk's cave, which was full of restrictions. If Fan hadn't rescued him, Fang Chuwu would have fallen on the spot. Cultivate to the Yuandan realm smoothly."

Fan Yiqiao smiled, and said without hesitation: "Fang Chuwu is indeed greedy for money, but Fan always believes in his character."

"The old guy is always provoking in front of outsiders. If Fang hadn't used the secret technique in the cave of the ancient monks regardless of the damage of the Taoist foundation, you would have become fodder for demon insects!"

Just as Fan Yiqiao finished speaking, a voice full of irony resounded, and on the high mountain, a short, fat, golden-complexioned old man in his sixties came step by step.

This person obviously didn't escape the light, but the distance of thousands of feet came within half a breath, and he appeared next to everyone at once.

"It's such an exaggerated spiritual power escape technique, it's not weaker than the power when I cast Mo Luo's shadow step."

Chen Ping's heart trembled, and he thought secretly.

This kind of high-level monk who is proficient in body skills is the most difficult to deal with. He is no match for others with supernatural powers, and he runs away in a blink of an eye.

No wonder Fang Chuwu repeatedly intervened in the orthodox dispute between the two sects. It turned out that he had a good confidence.

"I will talk to you about the matter of the ancient monk's cave in the future."

Fan Yiqiao glared at him fiercely, then pointed at Chen Ping and said, "This is Chen Ping, fellow Daoist Chen, whom I introduced to you in detail in the Jade Slip of Communication. Don't think he's from the early Yuan Dan period, but we are bound together. Not enough to kill him alone."

"Fellow Daoist Chen, Mr. Fang has been friends with you for a long time. A few days ago, the old man Fan sent a letter from a ghost, saying that the Deng and Pu clans had been wiped out after a complete victory. Fellow Daoist Chen Ping showed great power and slaughtered you one after another. Four Yuan Dan monks with extraordinary strength, hehe, this supernatural power really amazed Fang, even the first true biography of the Lanyue Sect in the past would be willing to bow down."

Fang Chuwu was also very handsome, and when Fan Yiqiao finished speaking, he smiled and saluted Chen Ping, giving people a feeling of spring breeze blowing on his face.
