A seal of immortality

Chapter 457 Beast Tide
Not long after, a black light flew from the sky.

The light faded away, revealing the figure of the old woman in black robe.

The old woman in black robe let go of her consciousness and swept down to the sea area below. Although she checked very carefully, she couldn't find Wang Changsheng who was hidden hundreds of feet underground.

After withdrawing her consciousness, the old woman in black robe turned into a ray of black light and fled towards the sky.

In a natural stone cave hundreds of feet deep underground on the island, a yellow light flashed. Wang Changsheng emerged from the stone wall on one side of the cave, with a yellow light mask covering his body.

Wang Changsheng took out a fist-sized moonstone, and by the soft light emitted by the moonstone, he could see the surrounding situation clearly.

At this time, he was in a stalactite cave extending in all directions.

Wang Changsheng let go of his consciousness, but he didn't sense any breath of life, which made him slightly relieved.

After a little thought, Wang Changsheng slapped the spirit beast bag on his waist, and two bloodthirsty spirit bats flashed out in the billowing black air.

"Go, see what's going on inside," Wang Changsheng pointed to two dark caves, and ordered two bloodthirsty spirit bats.

Bloodthirsty spirit bats can see the surrounding situation clearly in dark places, and they are sensitive to blood after all, so they are best used to find the way.

After a while, two bloodthirsty spirit bats flew back one after another, and one of them was chirping non-stop, as if it had discovered something.

Seeing this, Wang Changsheng frowned, let go of his consciousness, and carefully scanned the cave explored by this bloodthirsty spirit bat, but found nothing.

"Lead the way ahead," Wang Changsheng ordered after a little thought.

Two bloodthirsty spirit bats then flew into a dark cave, Wang Changsheng took two talisman seals for himself, and followed them slowly.

After walking tens of meters, Wang Changsheng came to a bigger stalactite cave.

In the middle of the cave, two humanoid skeletons fell to the ground. One skeleton had a rusty dagger stuck in its chest. The other skeleton's body was separated, and its skull was scattered on the ground not far away.

In addition, there are several broken magic weapons scattered on the ground.

What caught Wang Changsheng's attention was that in the corner of the cave, there was an extremely simple hexagonal magic circle.

Wang Changsheng took a closer look and found that this magic circle was quite similar to the teleportation circle, so he didn't know where the other end of the teleportation circle was.

Wang Changsheng walked to the two corpses and tore off the storage bag tied to the corpses.

He toppled the two storage bags down, and after a roll of Xiaguang, a large pile of cultivation resources such as monster materials, ores, and spirit stones appeared on the ground.

Among them, monster materials are mostly used.

After careful identification by Wang Changsheng, it was found that these monster materials were all from fourth- and fifth-level monsters.

Reminiscent of the teleportation array in the corner, Wang Changsheng guessed that this teleportation array was likely to be teleported back to the inner sea, and the two corpses might have been smuggled.

The Qingyuan sea area is a newly discovered sea area. The teleportation arrays back to the inner sea are only found on large islands, and there are not many of them. Every time you teleport back to the inner sea, you need to pay a large amount of spirit stones.

In order to save the cost of teleportation, some criminals will set up a teleportation array privately, buy various materials and send them back to the inner sea for sale, or buy talismans, magic tools and other immortal cultivation items that are in short supply in the outer sea from the inner sea, and send them to the outer sea for sale. It is expressly prohibited by the local administrators.

Wang Changsheng sorted the items for cultivating immortals on the ground into different storage beads, then took out a water mirror jade talisman, and recorded the image of the teleportation array.

After doing all this, Wang Changsheng sat cross-legged on the ground, recalling the experience of encountering the alchemy cultivator this time.

According to what the black-robed old woman said, she had been looking for Wang Changsheng for a while, and if she could send a monk in the alchemy stage to look for Wang Changsheng, who would it be?

In Wang Changsheng's impression, he did not offend high-ranking monks, so in another way of thinking, who did he have grudge against?

"Yang Qian," Yang Qian's face immediately appeared in Wang Changsheng's mind.

Yang Qian once lured Wang Changsheng to Zisang Island, which caused Wang Changsheng to be attacked by five foundation cultivators.

The five foundation-building cultivators all failed last time, so it is hard to guarantee that Yang Qian will not spend a lot of money to invite the alchemy cultivator.

Wang Changsheng shuddered at the thought of being targeted by a cultivator at the alchemy stage.

It seems that he really can't stay in the Qingyuan sea area anymore, it's safer to teleport back to the inner sea.

The teleportation array in front of him is somewhat similar to the teleportation array in Qingyuan City, but it is still somewhat different, and he can't guarantee that it must be teleported back to the inner sea.

After some careful consideration, Wang Changsheng felt that it would be better to go back to Qingyuan City and teleport back to the Inner Sea, but before that, he had to refine a few more high-level beast soul talismans.

For the next half month, Wang Changsheng stayed in the underground stalactite cave, refining the beast soul talisman.

After several failures, Wang Changsheng successfully refined several beast soul charms that sealed the spirits of level five monsters. In addition, he used the spirits of turtles and turtles to refine more than a dozen beast soul charms.

On this day, Wang Changsheng put on a grimace mask and dived back to the ground.

Back on the ground, Wang Changsheng sacrificed the snow wind boat, and the imperial weapon flew high into the sky.

Before leaving, Wang Changsheng made several unique marks on the highest mountain on the island, just in case.

More than a month later, Wang Changsheng appeared above Qingyuan Island.

He looked down at Qingyuan City, which was shrouded in a huge yellow light curtain, and frowned.

Wang Changsheng remembered very clearly that there was no such yellow light curtain in Qingyuan City before, and it seemed that it was activated only recently. In addition, dozens of gleaming giant crossbows were placed on the city wall, as if there was something important to do. occur.

After Wang Changsheng thought about it for a while, he put this thought behind him. No matter what happened, it was none of his business. He just needed to take the teleportation array and leave the Qingyuan sea area.

Thinking in this way, Wang Changsheng's imperial weapon landed, put away the snow wind boat, and walked into Qingyuan City.

Wang Changsheng was surprised to find that there were more than twice as many pedestrians on the street as when he first arrived in Qingyuan City, and it seemed extremely crowded.

In addition, Wang Changsheng also noticed that these pedestrians walked in a hurry and looked dignified.

Seeing this scene, Wang Changsheng had a bad premonition in his heart.

When Wang Changsheng came near the high platform where the teleportation array was located, he was surprised to find that the high platform where the teleportation array was located was covered by a golden mask, surrounded by seven or eight foundation-building monks guarding it.

Seeing this, Wang Changsheng frowned.

"What happened here? Why did you seal the teleportation formation?" Wang Changsheng asked a middle-aged man passing by in a deep voice.

The middle-aged man is only on the eleventh level of Qi refining. Facing a question from a foundation cultivator, he naturally did not dare to neglect, and replied respectfully:
"Reporting to seniors, the beast tide broke out. The high-level monsters led the low-level monsters to attack the island where humans live. Qingyuan Island is now allowed to enter and not allowed to leave. Once the people in the management office find out about fleeing, there is only one dead end."

"Beast tide? When did it erupt?" Wang Changsheng asked, frowning.

"Just over half a month ago, for some reason, high-level monsters suddenly led a large number of low-level monsters to attack the island where our immortal cultivators live. Dozens of islands have already been breached by monsters. Immortal cultivators and mortals were all killed and injured, and senior Lian Danqi also fell a few," the middle-aged man said with lingering fear.

"Didn't the manager of the Qingyuan sea area send people to investigate the reason for the monster riot?" Wang Changsheng asked after a moment of pondering.

"This junior doesn't know. Anyway, no immortal cultivator dares to live on small and medium-sized islands. They can either take refuge on the three large islands of Qingyuan Island, Heishi Island, and Tianxing Island, or run to the small islands in the rear. "The middle-aged man shook his head and said slowly.

Wang Changsheng nodded and let the middle-aged man leave.
