Five Immortal Sects

Chapter 474: The North Sea

Views:

The old man in yellow immediately felt the extremely familiar and long-lost breath. This breath came from between heaven and earth, not from himself.

The old man in yellow had not felt this breath for many years, which caused his cultivation to stagnate. At this moment, tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.

If those four people saw him like this, they would definitely think that he had a ridiculous illusion. How could the usually cold-blooded "Wan Zun Zhe" shed tears

The old man in yellow took a deep breath. Ever since he suppressed his cultivation through the cracks in the Yinmo Cliff thousands of years ago, and survived many life-and-death experiences, he finally managed to sneak into the Desolate Moon Continent. He has never felt such pure demonic energy again.

Although he could transform the spiritual energy between heaven and earth in the Wild Moon Continent into demonic energy, it could only barely sustain daily consumption, and it was not possible for his cultivation to make any progress at all. He felt that if he continued to maintain it like this, his realm might fall.

Only after the passage between the two realms is completely opened, they will plant all kinds of magic plants all over the Desolate Moon Continent. After the magic plants grow in large numbers, they will slowly absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth and transform it into rich magic energy.

"Yes, this is the weakest barrier between the two worlds!"

The old man in yellow couldn't contain his excitement, and an expression of ecstasy appeared on his face unconsciously. This time he didn't go to other places, but only chose here. It seems that his bet was right.

Feeling the black air that was imperceptible to the naked eye emanating from the bottom of the puddle, and watching with his own eyes the "Boundary Breaking Pearl" slowly enter the reef, until it finally sank into the swamp like a heavy stone, the old man in yellow finally felt much more at ease.

After more than half an hour had passed, the old man in yellow saw that there was more and more black air in the puddle, so he sat cross-legged again and fixed his body in the void.

He placed his hands in front of his chest and began to form a set of complicated spells. Although he could no longer touch the activated "Boundary Breaking Pearl", he could borrow the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to help speed up the "Boundary Breaking Pearl" to reach the barrier between the two realms.

… …

This is a vast sea area, boundless and the sky is dark all year round. The water below is pitch black, like a giant black dragon stirring up waves, surging and roaring in the howling wind.

Very few humans come here, and even cultivators are rarely willing to come here. Not only are the living conditions here extremely harsh, there is almost no spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

In such an environment, there are still ferocious monsters living in the sea below, and it is even rumored that there are fourth-level monsters.

It is almost unheard of that cultivators below the Jindan stage can fly across this vast sea. Even if they fly day and night, they may not be able to travel across the entire North Sea in decades.

Moreover, without the replenishment of spiritual energy, it would be quite a headache even for Nascent Soul cultivators, and they would not be sure that they could cross this place.

This is the northernmost place of the Pure Land Sect - the North Sea.

As for where is further north of the North Sea, few people know. Perhaps only cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage in this world may know something about the situation, but they will not easily reveal such things to others.

According to some historical records, beyond the North Sea, there is a barrier connecting to another continent. Even a Nascent Soul cultivator may not be able to pass through it. Only a Nascent Soul cultivator who has cultivated the power of space can cross the two continents.

On this day, in the midst of an inky sky and earth, a tiny black dot slowly appeared. At first, the black dot almost merged into the inky world.

The black water below would occasionally surge up to a height of hundreds of feet, and as time passed, the black spots slowly began to show some differences from the surrounding environment.

Looking at the same black and gray colors in his sight for the past ten days, Li Yan's face was calm, but his nerves were extremely tense.

There is too little spiritual energy between heaven and earth here. Li Yan had made sufficient preparations before coming to the North Sea, especially elixirs to replenish spiritual energy, plus the large amount of spirit stones he had obtained from his opponents along the way.

Li Yan was confident that he could live here for several years. With his current wealth, he was comparable to a mid-to-late Jindan cultivator.

More than ten days ago, Li Yan officially stepped into the North Sea. The moment he stepped into the sea, he felt the spiritual energy of heaven and earth suddenly disappear. The little spiritual energy that remained in the surroundings was almost unnoticeable.

Moreover, the black sea water below seemed to have some kind of suction force, although it was not strong, it did exist. In the short term, I couldn't feel any impact, but after a while, I felt that the black sea water was still strong.

The monks flying in the sky felt as if someone was performing "gravity magic" below them at all times, causing their spiritual energy to be consumed at an accelerated rate without them noticing. As time went by after entering the North Sea, this feeling became more and more obvious.

What makes this sea area exhausting is that Li Yan has been flying for more than ten days, but he has not found an island, not even a small reef.

At the same time, he was also attacked by hundreds of sea monsters. The grades of these monsters varied. Fortunately, the highest grade Li Yan had encountered so far was only a level two early stage monster.

But Li Yan knew that as he continued to go deeper into the North Sea, he would encounter fewer and fewer monsters, but their levels would definitely get higher and higher. The higher the level of the monster, the larger its territory, and the low-level monsters in it would only gather in a certain area, and would not dare to wander around, and would no longer spread out like they were unrestrained.

As a result, Li Yan had almost nowhere to rest and could only fly continuously day and night. Even if he used the spirit stone to drive the "Cloud-piercing Willow", he still needed to observe the direction from time to time.

Otherwise, in this vast ocean, if you are not careful, you will lose your sense of direction. You may be flying normally the last moment, but the next moment you may be flying in the opposite direction, which would cause a big joke.

Li Yan did not have a clear target for where the "Youwuqiong" tree might grow. Pingtu just gave him an area where it might exist.

However, this gave Li Yan some peace of mind. At least he was not searching aimlessly.

Li Yan sat cross-legged in front of the Cloud-Piercing Willow with his eyes closed, releasing a wisp of spiritual consciousness to observe the surroundings at all times. At this moment, Li Yan suddenly opened his eyes, and with a movement of spiritual consciousness, the Cloud-Piercing Willow immediately made a sharp turn in the air.

At the same time, a light flashed in Li Yan's hand, and a black water spike condensed in his right hand in an instant. He swung it out without hesitation.

After flying for more than ten days, although the spiritual energy in the North Sea is thin, the moisture between heaven and earth here is shockingly dense. If it were not for the spiritual power shield on the body, all the clothes would be soaked by moisture in just a cup of tea.

Moreover, Li Yan discovered in his previous fight with monsters that using his strongest water spiritual power here could achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Especially with the help of the rich water vapor between heaven and earth, the various magic techniques condensed are extremely easy.

As soon as the black water spikes were thrown out, a Netherworld Fire Eagle cut down with its pair of claws as sharp as knives on the route Li Yan had just passed.

Due to its extremely fast speed, its sharp claws caused extremely thin water vapor in the air to make a continuous "hissing" sound, and also created a thin water wall visible to the naked eye on both sides.

The attack that he was sure to succeed in before his eyes actually missed. A cold light flashed in the eyes of this level 2 Nether Flame Eagle, but before it could continue chasing, a black water spike appeared below it.

The front tip of the black water thorn flashed with a murderous light and stabbed fiercely into the abdomen of the Nether Flame Eagle.

Li Yan, who had just dodged a sneak attack in the distance, had not yet stood firmly on Chuanyunliu when he suddenly frowned. His figure, which had just become clear, turned into a phantom again and became blurred again in an instant.

A black shadow rushed out of the huge waves below like a ghost, and rose another hundred feet above the waves that were a hundred feet high.

There was a loud "click" and the dull sound of teeth hitting each other, and a huge mouth bit Li Yan's shadow firmly.

However, Li Yan's spiritual sense was strong. Although the monster that leaped out of the sea had a very good talent for hiding its whereabouts, Li Yan instantly caught a hint of murderous intent before it attacked.

In order to avoid the attack of the sea monsters, Li Yan had already increased his flying altitude to more than two hundred feet. If he went any higher, the suction force generated by the North Sea below would be stronger, which would accelerate the consumption of Li Yan's spiritual energy.

This is a rare storm dragon shark, and its grade has reached the middle stage of level two. It is the most ferocious and cunning monster Li Yan has encountered in these days. It should have been eyeing Li Yan for a long time, but it has been hiding in the waves, following Li Yan closely, not in a hurry to take action, but looking for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

It waited until the Nether Flame Eagle in the sky attacked Li Yan, and instantly launched a fatal attack. The breath of the Storm Dragon Shark blended perfectly with this world.

It was originally intended to be a successful attack, but because Li Yan's powerful consciousness captured the only trace of murderous intent before the attack, the attack went wrong.

This made the huge body of the storm dragon shark hovering in the air freeze. It had been staring at Li Yan for most of the day, and after trying every possible means, it did not expect this result.

Just as the Storm Dragon Shark was stunned, two balls of red flames appeared below it. Li Yan took action and shot out all the fire in the Lihuo Xuanhuang Fan at once.

A sea of fire formed between the Storm Dragon Shark's body and the sea water, blocking its retreat. In an instant, Li Yan was attacked by two monsters in a row. His face was gloomy, but his hands moved like flowing water.

When the Netherworld Flame Eagle felt the chill penetrating its abdomen, it suddenly retracted its claws that had been grabbing empty air and protected its lower abdomen. At the same time, a white, cold heat began to burn on its claws, forming a rotating Bagua halo under its claws.

The next moment, the sudden attack of black water spikes pierced the Bagua halo, and instantly a black and white shock wave erupted on the Nether Flame Eagle. With a burst, the black water spikes instantly shattered into pieces, and turned back into water vapor between heaven and earth, and dissipated around the Nether Flame Eagle.

The Netherworld Flame Eagle shattered Li Yan's water spikes with one strike, and couldn't help but let out a loud eagle cry towards the sky, which shook the area within a radius of dozens of miles. Its wings slashed through the air like iron spears, and it turned and pounced on Li Yan again.
