The cause of all this is still because of the word "wealth".
On the road of Xiangnan and the others, Zongmen will not intervene in the common people's world. At most, they just share the same hometown with the common people, and the only intersection between them is business.
Take Xiang Nan as an example, since he stepped into martial arts, he basically didn't have much contact with civilians, let alone go to a family to show off his power and beat them up to show his strength.
But it is different in the Iron Continent, because the local civilians are too rich! If you have enough money, you can even buy puppets with extremely strong fighting power directly from sects like Xuanmingzong.
Excessive wealth has aroused some sect disciples' interest in the common people's world.
Usually they rob a family with a lower-middle living standard, and the wealth they rob can go to the auction house to buy a Huayuan Pill!
Because of this, the disciples of the Zongmen "moved all their hearts", they sneaked out from time to time, put on night clothes directly to play the role of thieves, robbed houses and houses in the civilian world, and did all kinds of evil.
When the evil was over, he changed into the decent Zongmen costumes and returned to the Zongmen swaggeringly.
And the various sects are not blind. After they discover this kind of thing, they will severely punish the disciples who did evil, and give extremely heavy punishments.
But this still cannot stop more and more sect disciples from coveting the wealth of ordinary people.
In the end, this incident was like a plague of locusts, and it was out of control. Those disciples who were expelled from the sect simply turned into bandits and colluded with each other.
Without the constraints of being disciples of the sect, they were able to kill civilians unscrupulously and rob a lot of wealth.
The person in charge of the team sighed: "At the very beginning, the most powerful disciples of those sects who were expelled were only at the Guiyuan Realm."
"However, for hundreds of years, they have been constantly plundering wealth, going outside to buy pills, exercises, martial arts, etc. Up to now, even the most powerful local thugs, some of them have reached the realm of creation."
Hearing the description from the person in charge of the team, Xiang Nan didn't know what to say, he suddenly thought of what Si Tong had said to him.
Wealth, it seems, is a sin from which no one is exempt.
It's as if you are a jackal, you pass by the ant nest every day, and you dismiss those ants.
But suddenly one day, these ants had more meat than they could eat! Those meats piled up into mountains and were placed next to the ant nest, would you snatch them
The person in charge of the team grabbed Xiang Nan's arm and said, "Little hero, go away, you killed many of them, and they will definitely come back to trouble you."
"These people are vicious. They no longer have a home, no sect of their own. They don't care about life and death at all. They are a group of complete lunatics."
"Yeah, let's go." Someone beside him persuaded: "We are all ordinary people, and we don't deserve a high-ranking warrior like you to work for us."
"What are you talking about!" Xiang Nan said angrily, "What do you mean by superiority! Ordinary people and warriors are both human!"
"I want to see what they can do to me. This group of bastards who have disgraced the disciples of the sect must be taught a lesson."
"That's right." Yuan Meng hugged his shoulders, and was also furious when he heard it: "Is he really embarrassing to the disciples of the sect, if this group of bastards dare to come, he will come, and I will kill one!"
"Hurry up and save people. After bandaging everyone, see which carriages have not been destroyed. Connect them together and let's go together." Xiang Nan directed everyone to save people.
When it's done, throw the destroyed vehicles directly down, and connect the remaining vehicles and living monsters with iron chains, and the mighty convoy continues on the road.
In the carriage, Xiao Jun asked curiously: "Look at the puppets used by those sect disciples, aren't they very strange, I've never seen such a thing before."
"Our puppets in the Southern Region are all made exactly like ordinary people. They have no expression and just follow their masters."
"But the puppet they have here can actually be manipulated."
"Well, I've noticed it a long time ago." Xiang Nan pulled out a broken puppet arm from the ring, and said, "Look at this."
"On this arm, there are densely packed small formations, and these formations are driving the puppets to move."
"Usually, the puppet is directly connected to the will of the monk of the Xuan Dao. The monk of the Xuan Dao only needs one thought, and the puppet can fight according to the monk's thoughts."
"But here, most people are not Xuan Dao monks, so the puppets here are made in such a shape that ordinary people can control them."
"I understand, I don't need a soul!" Xiao Jun snapped his fingers: "Normal puppets need to communicate with a monk's soul, but such a puppet can use it without a soul."
"That's what it means." Xiang Nan nodded, and said, "These fighting puppets were created by crooked Xuan Dao monks."
Xiang Nan stretched out his finger and flicked the puppet's arm twice, making a clanging sound.
Xiang Nandao: "This mechanism puppet possesses the realm of the sixth level of Tianyuan. Look at the material, but it is made of the main material of the first-level ground soldiers."
"That's another important reason."
"I also understand." Yuan Meng pondered: "In our Southern Territory, anyone who can find the materials for the first-level ground soldiers will treat them as treasures, and it will be too late to refine them into ground soldiers. How can they be willing to make them into puppets? .”
"But the people in Iron Continent are too rich, they don't care about these refining materials at all."
"Yes." Xiang Nan said: "Such a puppet can at least be trained into three or five ground soldiers."
"Damn!" Xiao Jun snatched the puppet's arm and stuffed it into his ring: "The proportion of refining materials in it is so high! I have to take it back and practice a weapon."
"Look at your potential." Xiang Nan curled his lips: "If you want it, I'll send you a heavenly soldier later."
After speaking, Xiang Nan began to think for himself.
He has seen many puppets in the chain lock area of the Demon Sea. Those puppets are all shaped like mechanical beasts. They also contain the refining materials for forging spiritual soldiers, earth soldiers, and even heavenly soldiers in their bodies.
After he killed those organ beasts, the refining materials contained in their bodies would shrink immediately, condense into a complete block, and fall out, as rewards for those who broke through the level.
As for the modern Xuandao monks, few of them specialize in the forging of puppets. They basically focus on alchemy and weapon refining, because these two are the most profitable, and they are also of great help to their own improvement. It will raise the realm.
But on the Iron Continent, there seems to be a group of monks who specialize in puppet training.
Xiang Nan was thoughtful, could it be that some of the Xuandao monks here have been to the Demon Sea? And got inspiration from the chain-lock mechanism beast
These things are still unknown, and Xiang Nan himself is only making a rough guess.
He only knew that there were also a large number of Tianxuanzong disciples who entered the Demon Sea.
