A master of supernatural powers who started from low martial arts

Chapter 224: The Reappearance of Luck, the Yin Corpse Mountain Range

For most cultivators, half a month is just the time for a nap.

During this period, Lu Yuan quickly got used to Bai Qianfeng's identity. While happily practicing in his cave, he took advantage of the rich spiritual environment of the upper realm. At the same time, he soon discovered an extremely amazing place.

That is, even if he ascended to the upper realm, there was still a force of luck slowly gathering in the dark, and its source seemed to still come from the lower realm!

This discovery undoubtedly surprised and delighted him.

Although these strands of luck accumulate slowly and meagerly, they are much less than when in the lower world, with only about a thousand ke in a month.

But this also made his previous years of efforts in the lower world not in vain, and it also proved that the heavenly book in his mind could ignore time and space and absorb luck, which could be called the most magical artifact among artifacts.

Lu Yuan was also looking forward to it. If he developed and operated in the upper realm of Yuanlingtian, would he be able to obtain more luck and power than in the lower realm?

With such doubts.

Lu Yuan adapted to his identity and not only dealt with his concubines and family, but also took the time to visit the Longshan Immortal Lord City.

The main city belongs to the core area of ​​Longshan Immortal City. Not only is it close to the core of the spiritual vein, it is also completely shrouded in the city-protecting Nine Thunder Demon-Subduing Array. There are nearly 100,000 low-level cultivators living in the main city.

Among them, those who have a skill and join the Immortal City can be allocated a residence in the main city for long-term residence after passing the assessment, and enjoy the rich spiritual environment for practice; if they do not have a skill, they will need to pay a hefty rent, or respond to the call of the Immortal City War Hall and go to the front line to fight against the zombie tide. After a certain number of years and merits, they can also be allocated a residence in the Immortal City.

The spiritual vein beneath Longshan Immortal City was a fourth-order medium-sized spiritual vein in ancient times, and was even qualified to be a training ground for giant gods. Although tens of thousands of years have passed and the spiritual vein has degenerated to the level of a third-order upper-class spiritual vein, it still has great appeal to thousands of low-level cultivators in the Qi Refining period, and there is an endless stream of people coming to join.

This time, Lu Yuan went to the main city alone.

Ordinary cultivators, even those who have reached the foundation-building stage, have to walk in the main urban area and have their identities checked by the law enforcement team. However, high-level Jindan masters like Lu Yuan naturally have privileges and can fly into the fairy city leisurely without anyone checking or stopping them.

The main city was in the shape of a Bagua, and the outer perimeter was a dense residential area consisting of small courtyards that were densely packed like tofu blocks. The conditions looked quite simple, and it was obviously the residence of the lowest-level monks.

Further in, the various courtyards were obviously much larger, with much better spacing and environments. They were obviously the residences of monks with certain strength and financial resources.

As for the center of the main city, apart from an empty square, there are buildings that are either surrounded by fairy light or magnificent. This is the trading area of ​​the fairy city.

The trading area of ​​Longshan Fairy City is divided into three levels. The first is the exchange market for low-level independent cultivators, where some second-rate alchemists, talisman masters, or robbery cultivators set up stalls to sell various cultivation resources and stolen goods at the Qi Refining stage. Of course, there are occasionally some rare things, but they are relatively rare.

One level up are the many shops in the central area, which sell everything from elixirs, magical instruments, robes, skills, spiritual beasts, etc., and most of them are opened by the major immortal cultivation families.

The items sold in these shops are of relatively good quality and much more expensive. Naturally, the lower-class casual cultivators living on the outskirts cannot afford them. Only cultivators at least in the middle stage of Qi Refining are eligible to come here for a visit.

However, the various talismans and magic tools sold here are only at the foundation-building level at most. If a cultivator at the Jindan level like Lu Yuan wants to get the things he wants, he still has to rely on the Xiancheng auction or even some small circle trading secret meetings composed of Jindan real people.

Due to the time constraints, Lu Yuan did not encounter any auctions or secret trading meetings. He could only wander around the most upscale shops in the city, focusing on some stores selling elixirs, magic tools and even various refining materials.

He didn't need any secret techniques or skills as he had the supernatural powers of the Heavenly Gang and the Earthly Demons. He rarely relied on elixirs after he mastered the Nine Breaths of Subduing Qi. However, elixirs, weapons, and talismans were the four most popular and profitable arts of cultivating immortals for Yuan Lingtian cultivators. He also happened to have mastered the art of boiling stones, so he could refine all kinds of gold and stone elixirs. By the way, he learned about the market situation of elixirs, but he might not be able to use them later.

As for finding various magical instruments and refining materials, they were naturally prepared for his sword pills.

[Swordsmanship] The magical skill of refining swords into pills can not only refine magic weapons into natal sword pills, but also extract the sharpness and gold energy from various magic swords and metal spiritual materials to improve the quality of sword pills.

When he was in the lower world, Lu Yuan melted Bai Qianfeng's Red Fire Burning Sky Sword into the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword Pill, which made the power of the sword pill reach a new level. This sword pill is currently his most powerful killing method, and he will naturally continue to improve it when there is a chance.

As a Jindan Zhenren, Lu Yuan's arrival was greeted with great respect by all the shops. After he informed them of his needs, he quickly obtained two quite rare metal materials.

They are both gray and dark gold, and both are meteorite iron essence. They are both third-level metal spiritual materials and are very valuable.

For this, Lu Yuan also paid a full four thousand spiritual coins, which caused Bai Qianfeng's inheritance to shrink suddenly.

He didn't feel bad at all because it wasn't his own money being spent. He didn't care at all. He took the materials back to the cave and began to use the sword-making pill-making technique to extract the gold energy from it to strengthen the sword pill.

But only a few days.

Lu Yuan, who was in the quiet room, received the message from the communication talisman left by Qin Ruoning, and left the cave early the next morning and headed for Feixiantai on the east side of the main city.

When his figure flew over and landed on the Feixiantai in the east of the city, Qin Ruoning was already waiting with a group of cultivators. There were about a hundred of these cultivators in total, divided into several teams and each team was led by a foundation-building cultivator. When they saw Lu Yuan coming, they immediately bowed and saluted:

"I have met Elder Bai!"

"No gift."

Lu Yuan smiled and waved his sleeves, then looked at Qin Ruoning:

"Fellow Daoist Qin, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Qin Ruoning said meaningfully, "There has been no news for half a month. Could it be that you have fallen into the land of gentleness and never wanted to leave?"

Lu Yuan shook his head solemnly and said:
"Of course not. I am a clean person. How could I do such a depraved thing? Fellow Daoist Qin is really worrying too much."

Qin Ruoning smiled, looking quite happy:

"That's good. I believe in you, fellow Taoist. The time is almost up. Let's set off now."

The frontline defense was tight, and this time their Foreign Affairs Hall was going there as a support, so there was no room for shirking. Lu Yuan did not say anything, and immediately nodded and set up the fairy light, flying towards the east outside the city. Qin Ruoning and the group of monks from the War Hall who were temporarily assigned to them also followed. The front line against the zombie tide was only seven or eight hundred miles away from Longshan Fairy City. For Lu Yuan and Qin Ruoning, it was just a matter of a moment. However, because they brought a group of Qi Refining Foundation Building subordinates, they arrived at the front line more than half an hour later.

All I saw in front of me was a vast, dead silent, endless mountain range, also covered by thick dark clouds. Under the clouds, an extremely strong yin energy, death energy, and even the stench of corpses filled the space between heaven and earth.

Outside the exit of this mountain range, one can vaguely see from high above a huge abyss crack that stretches for dozens of miles. It does not look like it was caused by natural forces such as an earthquake, but rather by a blow from a powerful monk.

This is indeed the case. Many years ago, a tide of corpses broke out completely in the West Yanzhou region and spread to this place. Wherever it passed, countless creatures turned into corpses, monsters and demons. Leading them was a Sky Corpse King who was comparable to a giant in the state of transformation. He was extremely ferocious and the situation was extremely critical.

Therefore, the Immortal Alliance invited a great god-transforming master to come to Longshan Immortal City to help fight against this demon. This great god-transforming master used his great magic power to fight with the corpse demon for several hours and finally killed it completely. The huge abyss crack on the ground was created by the opponent's magic power.

Soon, Lu Yuan and his group came roaring and landed outside the mountains at a camp that stretched for several miles. They were then welcomed in by the monks who were stationed on guard outside.

When they arrived at the main tent, three middle-aged monks with powerful auras and murderous auras came out to greet them:

"Fellow Daoist Bai, Fellow Daoist Qin, you are here."

Seeing these three people, corresponding memories emerged, and Lu Yuan and Qin Ruoning saluted together:
"Meet Hall Master Xing, Deputy Hall Master Wang, and Deputy Hall Master Guo."

"We are here to obey the orders of the Lord Zhenjun."

Xing Tianding, Wang Chuyi and Guo Chaoshan, these three are the master and deputy master of the war hall respectively. They have profound qualifications, and their cultivation and strength are among the best among all the Jindan real people in Longshan Immortal City.

The War Hall was originally the most important hall in Longshan Immortal City. The hall master Xing Tianding had already reached the late Jindan stage, and the other two deputy hall masters had reached the middle Jindan stage. They had been leading the cultivators in the front lines to fight against the tide of corpses, and had made numerous contributions to the Immortal City. In comparison, latecomers like Bai Qianfeng and Qin Ruoning were indeed inferior in status.

Xing Tianding looked dignified, nodded slightly and said:
“Thank you two fellow Taoists for coming to support us. There have been frequent disturbances in the Yinshi Mountain Range in the past two months, and many powerful corpse kings have appeared, which has increased the pressure on the defense line.

High-level corpse kings have some residual intelligence, and many of them will drive the corpse tide to sneak around the blockade at night, crossing mountains and hills to fight their way out. Not long ago, two of our elders were ambushed by a high-level corpse king that could burrow into the ground, and were seriously injured on the spot. If we hadn't arrived in time, we would have become the beast's food."

A high-level corpse king that can burrow underground?

When Lu Yuan heard this, his heart was moved.

During the thousands of years of confrontation with the corpse demon catastrophe, the monks had already divided the powerful corpse demons into different levels, calling them corpse soldiers, corpse generals, corpse kings, heavenly corpses, and heavenly corpse kings from low to high.

Among them, the Corpse King is comparable to the Jindan level. No matter whether it is a cultivator or a corpse king transformed by a monster, although its intelligence is defective, it is ferocious and brutal, with a body like steel and no fear of pain. It is extremely difficult to cause fatal damage to it with ordinary means.

Moreover, some of them are even evolving and mutating by devouring living creatures, giving rise to all kinds of strange means and magical powers, and stealth through the ground is just one of them, which often poses a huge threat to the monks on the front line.

Xing Tianding continued:
"After you two come here, you will take charge of the defense line that those two were responsible for. Given the current situation, small groups of zombies may appear at any time at night. If there is any situation that you cannot deal with, you can activate the communication symbol at any time, and we will come to support you as soon as possible."

As he spoke, he threw out two jade talismans. Lu Yuan and Qin Ruoning immediately took them and said:

"I'll wait to understand."

Xing Tianding didn't say much. He immediately arranged for a capable subordinate to take Lu Yuan and his party to another defense position dozens of miles away and set up camp.

Although they said they were setting up camp, in fact this area was full of simple caves already built by the monks. All they had to do was choose an uninhabited place and live in it.

After settling down, the more than one hundred monks who followed them set up a warning formation around the camp. Lu Yuan found Qin Ruoning and said:
"Fellow Daoist Qin, I leave this place to you. I plan to go to the outskirts of the Yinshi Mountain Range and come back later."

Qin Ruoning immediately put down what he was doing:

"I'll go with you."

Lu Yuan did not refuse. After giving the order, the two of them flew out of the camp and flew towards the Yinshi Mountains in front of them, which was dark and silent, like another world.

During the day, the Yang energy is at its peak and the power of the sun is abundant. Most corpse demons, no matter where they are, will hide during the day and become active at night. At this time, as long as you don't go deep into the Yinshi Mountains, you will be basically safe.

After a few breaths, Lu Yuan arrived at the edge of the mountains. When he glanced around, he saw that the mountains were dark and filled with a frightening smell of death and stench. Many trees had died, and the remaining branches and leaves were dark red or oily green, as if they had also been contaminated by the corpse qi.

A quick glance revealed that there was not a single living creature to be seen throughout the mountains and plains. There were only a large number of mutilated human or animal corpses wandering around aimlessly. Each of them had a green face and fangs, and was hideous and ferocious. A quick glance revealed that there were tens of thousands of them!
"Wow, this is really the immortal version of Resident Evil, even worse than before."

Seeing it from Bai Qianfeng's memory is one thing, and seeing it with one's own eyes is another. Seeing such a strange scene, Lu Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

When a biological crisis occurs in a modern city, those zombies are so weak that they are like moving targets. They can be easily eliminated by the fire coverage of organized mechanized troops.

Yuanlingtian is a world of cultivating immortals. In addition to countless mortals and cultivators, there are also a large number of various monsters and exotic beasts in the world. They can also absorb spiritual energy and even the essence of the sun and the moon for cultivation, and have the powerful ability to burn mountains and boil seas.

As the corpse demon catastrophe swept through, various monsters and strange beasts, in addition to the human race, were also transformed into powerful corpse demons in large numbers, wreaking havoc everywhere. This was also the reason why the two continents of Dongxuan and Beihao were completely lost.

Qin Ruoning floated over at this time and said:

"Fellow Daoist Lu, we can just wait and see here. There are high-level corpse kings in the Yinshi Mountain Range, and there are even celestial corpses comparable to the Nascent Soul Realm. If we alarm them..."

Boo!
She didn't finish her sentence.

In the thick dark clouds over the Yinshi Mountain Range, there were suddenly bursts of shrill and hoarse cries. Lu Yuan only had to glance around to see a hideous corpse bird with rotten wings and body, as big as a house, leading dozens of slightly smaller corpse birds with equally exposed bones to fly towards them excitedly!
