"I saved you because immortals and mortals have different paths. The Tianlan Clan cultivators' brutal killing of mortals has already gone against the orthodoxy!"
Li Yan didn't explain too much and just said this to Aguxi.
"Thank you two seniors for helping our clan escape from the disaster. This kindness and virtue will be unforgettable for the rest of our lives. We will also record this matter so that future generations will remember the kindness of the seniors for generations to come!"
Aguxi didn't quite believe what Li Yan said. Why did he not agree to rescue them before, but suddenly came back to save him and others? However, he didn't dare to ask.
Immortal cultivators have very strange tempers, which can be completely different from one moment to the next. Maybe this mysterious cultivator really has a kind heart.
Of course, he also thought that the reason might be the "wood spirit pool" he mentioned, but the other party knew about this a few days ago and had agreed to it at that time.
"What are your plans when you return?"
“Senior, please understand. If I can return to the clan this time, I will first fulfill the teachings of my ancestors. Even if I die, I must know why no one in the clan came to look for us in such a long time.
No matter what, we are of the same origin. Either they all perish, or we must make things clear.
The second is that after finding out the truth about this matter, if I am not dead, I will definitely ask the clan to report back to the two elders as we said before!"
Aguxi once again brought up his previous promise, which was the only condition he could offer.
"You should also enter the spirit storage bag. When it is safe, I will call you out and discuss whether you should stay or go!"
Li Yan waved his hand lightly, and the two spirit storage bags in Aguxi's hands flew towards Li Yan. Then, a flash of light appeared at the opening of one of the bags, and Aguxi who was standing in front of him disappeared.
"Senior Sister, I hope our bet is right!"
Li Yan touched his chin with one hand and finally decided to come back and take action. It was Zhao Min's insistence that made them capture three cultivators in the central part of Tianlan Grassland and search their souls, but they found no news about the 'Wood Spirit Pool'!
"Looking at Aguxi's aura, there was no fluctuation when he mentioned the 'wood spirit pool', so I guess what he heard was true.
Some ancient races have their own foundations for founding their sects, and this is something not every cultivator can know."
Li Yan understood what Zhao Min said. The three cultivators they captured were all at the Foundation Establishment Stage. Their status determined that the information they knew was relatively ordinary.
When Zhao Min said this, her delicate black eyebrows frowned.
She learned from searching the memories of the Tianlan cultivators that one of the reasons these Tianlan cultivators came here to train was to capture the women of the Giant Wood Clan and have sex with them.
Even if the women of the Giant Wood Clan are mortals, they still have a small amount of spiritual power in their bodies, and every bit of it is of great benefit to cultivators.
From this we can see that the giant tree clan is extremely special, so one can imagine the essence nurtured by the so-called ten thousand year old spiritual tree.
It was because of this discovery that Li Yan agreed to come back and take Aguxi out of Tianlan Grassland.
Although it is also a gamble, it is still worth it for Li Yan to give it a try.
In the soul storage bag, after waking up, Aini found himself in a space of only a dozen feet in radius, with seven or eight tribesmen around him.
Among them were two Qi Condensation Stage disciples who were squatting beside her, staring at her nervously. When they saw Aini wake up, smiles immediately broke out on their faces.
"Master uncle is awake, Master uncle is awake!"
Aini looked around; the chief, Ethan, and the rest of the tribe were gone.
"Were we caught and imprisoned?"
This was the first thought that flashed through her mind.
She immediately pushed herself up with her hands and sat up. In a hurry, although she sat up, she felt that her magic power was thin and her body was extremely tired.
"Where are the clan leaders?"
Aini's eyes turned red involuntarily. She thought that the rest of the tribesmen were in great danger.
After she asked the question, her eyes turned to these tribesmen.
But to her surprise, these people did not show any grief or anger on their faces. Instead, they looked at each other and then a Qi Condensation Stage disciple spoke.
"Uncle Master, we are saved..."
After dozens of breaths, Aini's expression was no longer sad, but rather a little dazed. She kept staring at the Qi Condensation stage disciple.
"Master...Uncle..."
The disciple felt a little frightened when she stared at him.
"Is what you said true?"
"Uncle Master, how can I lie about this? Even if you give me a thousand guts, I still wouldn't dare to say anything. Everyone here can testify to this!"
"We were rescued by the two seniors we met a few days ago..."
"The chieftain is still outside talking to them..."
Seeing that Aini still looked incredulous, the people around him began to speak.
Finally, Aini slowly let out a breath from his chest, listening to everyone's words, with mixed feelings in his heart for a moment.
She finally believed that she and her people were rescued. Aisang used the elixir in another spirit storage bag to heal his people, while she stayed with these people.
At this moment, the sky suddenly darkened, and before anyone could react, a hunched figure fell to the ground.
“Chief!”
As Aini's eyes turned red, the other members of the Giant Tree Tribe gathered around with a look of surprise... Seven days later, at the southern end of Tianlan Grassland.
The spiritual energy here is very rich. Under the blue sky and white clouds, the endless grassland is like a huge boundless green carpet, spreading in all directions when unfolded.
Li Yan and Zhao Min stood side by side. The speed of "Cloud Piercing Willow" was almost the same as the flying speed of ordinary Jindan cultivators.
At this moment, Zhao Min's appearance was very ordinary. In order not to attract other people's attention, Zhao Min had already covered her pretty face.
From time to time, a ray of light flashed in the air around them, and occasionally some spiritual sense would scan towards them. After discovering that they were two Jindan cultivators, they immediately fled away.
"We are close to the junction of the central and southern parts of the Tianlan Grassland. As long as we pass through the southern grassland, we will be out of the Tianlan tribe's sphere of influence."
Li Yan glanced around and spoke softly.
The Tianlan tribe has particularly strict defenses in the area north of the central grassland, with large numbers of blue-clothed guards often patrolling back and forth, so basically no foreign monks can enter.
On the other hand, in the southern part of Tianlan Grassland, which is now the base camp of their tribe, there are many foreign cultivators, and the entry and exit are relatively free.
After all, the Tianlan clan is not an isolated clan, so communication and trade with monks from other clans are of course necessary.
As Li Yan and his companions got closer and closer to the southern part of Tianlan Grassland, more and more cultivators began to fly in the sky.
Occasionally, a team of blue-clad guards would fly by, vigilantly patrolling the surrounding area for unusual movements.
Li Yan noticed that these blue-clothed guards were particularly concerned about the monks coming from the north or heading north of the grassland.
Li Yan also talked with Aguxi again a few days ago and gradually learned some more about the situation.
The purpose of talking with Aguxi was of course to find out more information about Qingqing Continent. However, after Aguxi and his friends were born, they were trapped in the northern part of Tianlan Grassland and knew very little about the situation in the outside world.
However, they once had powerful warriors above the Jindan level, so every time they captured a Tianlan cultivator and searched his soul, they were able to get some information.
Among these news, there are some information about situations other than the Tianlan clan. Although not much, it is better than nothing.
Afterwards, Li Yan and Zhao Min attacked again in the northern part of the grassland, captured two more experienced Tianlan cultivators, and searched their souls as well.
Finally, after piecing together some important information, I was able to piece together some information.
The Qingqing Continent also has many races, but they are basically all local cultivators, and the races here are scattered throughout the continent.
Unlike the Lost Continent, where large sects and immortal cultivation families are concentrated in the core areas on the east and west sides, each sect can guess how many Nascent Soul cultivators and Divine Transformation monsters the other has.
On the other hand, the Qingqing Continent is similar to the Huangyue Continent. Each sect and immortal family divides the territory according to their strength, and each of them occupies it and does not allow others to intervene.
The strong ones occupy places with rich spiritual energy and abundant cultivation resources, while the weak ones can only live in a corner.
How many Divine Transformation cultivators are there in Qingqing Continent now? Few people know, and there is almost no news about the appearance of Divine Transformation cultivators.
According to Li Yan's guess, this is also because the Lost Continent is divided into the Black and White Demon Clan. In addition to internal strife, the Black Demon Clan has great expansion ambitions, so they retain as many Divine Transformation cultivators as possible in the lower realm to facilitate the invasion of other people's territories.
As a result, the rest of the sects and families living in the Lost Continent were also forced to leave strong men behind to guard their inheritance, which resulted in a situation where many cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage in the Lost Continent were unable to ascend immediately.
This kind of information is not a secret to the monks of the Lost Continent.
However, the Qingqing Continent has been relatively stable in the world of immortal cultivation. Year after year has passed, and now, except for a few major sects that may have left some backup plans, the cultivators of other sects who can ascend to heaven have already done so after reaching the Nascent Soul stage.
Just like when Li Yan and Zhao Min were in the Desolate Moon Continent, they knew that there were Nascent Soul cultivators in their own sects.
The old monster Huashen is a legendary existence even to the core disciples of the four major sects, and they don’t know whether there are really still people staying in the mortal world.
Top-level experts like Ancient Wine Flag of the Wild Moon Continent would at most leave behind a clone before leaving.
Cultivators like Li Yan, as long as they are not responsible for the inheritance of their sect or race, will pursue the great Dao after reaching the Nascent Soul stage.
They will certainly go looking for ascension nodes one by one, so how could they be willing to stay in the lower world
Li Yan and Zhao Min were probably certain that Yuanying-level or higher strongmen were rare in Qingqing Continent.
Unlike in the Lost Continent, there is a high chance that you will encounter a Nascent Soul expert when you go to the "Holy Demon City" or the territory of the Black Demon Clan.
When they first pieced together the news, Li Yan and Zhao Min were still a little skeptical. They had lived in the "Holy Demon City" for many years, and some of their thinking had changed because of the environment.
However, after the two of them carefully considered it, they finally accepted the structure of the immortal cultivation world in Qingqing Continent and felt much more relieved.
This made them feel as if they were back in the Wild Moon Continent, where Jindan cultivators could travel across the entire world without any hesitation.
There are several core cities of the Tianlan clan in the southern part of the Tianlan grassland, where the cultivators of the Tianlan clan gather.
They are composed of four tribes, which are of the same lineage and together form a council of elders called "Tianshi Hall". The Tianlan clan is led by the strongest lineage.
On weekdays, each of them is in charge of their own area, but once something happens, they will work together to defend against external enemies.
Each city in these four core areas covers an area of nearly ten thousand miles, like four adjacent rings, interconnected.
The place bordering the southern part of Tianlan Grassland is called Tingyun Kingdom. It is a rare country governed by immortal cultivators, who follow the imperial system of mortals.
The Tingyun Kingdom and the Tianlan Clan had a war 30,000 years ago. The reason was nothing more than competing for cultivation resources, and the war has continued to this day.
During the battle between the two sides, there were even powerful Nascent Soul masters who appeared, which is extremely rare in today's Qingqing Continent.
Both the Tingyun Kingdom and the Tianlan Clan allow foreign cultivators to enter and leave their territories, but they will strictly check their origins to prevent the other side's spies from infiltrating.
Everyone knows that you shouldn't make too many enemies. It is normal for cultivators in the world of immortals to gain experience. If you accidentally offend some disciples of big sects, you will bring trouble to yourself.
