There are more and more monks on Huangli Island, and the business of Lu Ping's two shops has gradually started to pick up and make money.
Especially after the first batch of monks who went to sea returned, the shop where Lu Ping purchased spiritual materials also attracted the attention of the monks, but the acquisition list handed over to Fang Tao by Lu Ping and Chen Lian limited the scope of the acquisition, which made the monks a little dissatisfied and had no choice. After all, Lu Ping and Chen Lian had limited spiritual stones in their hands, so they could only buy some urgently needed things first.
Although the Beihai Alliance has opened the sea ban, monks from many sects and a large number of casual cultivators have begun to come to the buffer sea area, but the major sects in the North Sea have not officially ordered their disciples to freely enter and leave the buffer sea area.
On the one hand, it is natural to ask other monks to find the way for the disciples of this sect, but on the other hand, the two major factions headed by the Xuanling Sect and the True Spirit Sect are still arguing about the ownership of some islands.
Although the Xuanling Sect launched the offensive this time, although it suffered heavy losses in the sea area of Xuanqi Island, it still achieved some results in other sea areas. Although the advantage was not as great as the true spirit faction alliance's victory when the two sides first clashed, they also took back five small islands.
The True Spirit Sect lost Xuanchang Island and Xuanyun Island, the Canghai Sect was robbed of Xuangu Island by the Canglang Sect, the Yujian Sect was occupied by the Feiyu Sect on Xuanshuo Island, and the Chongming Sect originally occupied Xuanyuan Island. It was snatched back by the Linggu faction. On the whole, this conflict is that the Zhenling faction lost ground, but the Xuanling faction lost people.
So the problem arises, the True Spirit faction who lost their territory naturally wants to take back the five islands, while the original goal of the Xuanling faction who lost a large number of monks is to destroy the first conflict with the True Spirit faction in one fell swoop. A series of occupied islands have been taken back, but the loss of soldiers and generals is far from reaching the strategic goal. Naturally, they are unwilling to stop, so the two factions are arguing in the alliance, there is a disagreement, and they are fighting again.
Seeing that it has been more than a month since the sea ban was lifted, if the two sides continue to fight like this, and the monster clan attacks again, it will be the various factions of the North Sea Alliance who will suffer. Therefore, the neutral sect led by Shiyan Pavilion and Haiyan Sect mediated in the middle, and the two parties finally reached a compromise, shelving the disputes over the five islands, and opening the Feiling Market.
Speaking of Feilingxu, I have to talk about Feiling faction.
Four thousand years ago, the Flying Spirit Sect was the true overlord of the Beihai Alliance. The faction was powerful. There had been four Hualing Patriarchs. The sect had a long tradition and profound heritage, and its prestige in the North Sea was far stronger than it is now. The Xuanling faction is well-known even outside Beihai.
Therefore, tens of thousands of years of dominance have made the disciples of this faction arrogant and domineering in Beihai. The Feiling faction also habitually took more of Beihai's resources, which finally aroused public outrage. At that time, the Xuanling faction secretly joined forces with other parties in Beihai to launch a war to destroy the Feiling faction.
The Feiling faction, who is used to being arrogant, didn't notice the undercurrent surging behind the lord of the earth. When they woke up, the island protection formation of the Feiling faction had been secretly disintegrated, and the factions had already invaded the flying spirit island. It was caught off guard. The Flying Spirit Sect monks under him suffered heavy losses.
However, the Flying Spirit Sect has a profound background after all. At that time, there were as many as 18 Faxiang Patriarchs in the faction, among which there were four Patriarchs from the late Faxiang. Victory, but more than a dozen Faxiang period ancestors, including the two ancestors of the late stage of Faxiang, suffered heavy injuries and fell one after another in the ensuing hundred years.
The duel of dozens of ancestors of Dharma Aspect also caused Feiling Island to be beaten beyond recognition, and the aftermath of the spell made it impossible for monks below the Dharma Aspect period to approach.
At this time, the forbidden formation that the Feiling faction finally used to seal the mountain was desperately launched by a late-stage ancestor of the Feiling faction, intending to kill both sides. After searching the resources, the ancestors naturally looked down on the things below the alchemy period, and they didn't have time to collect them. In the end, Feiling Island sank to the bottom of the sea with a lot of low-end resources.
It was at this time that the Xuanling faction began to rise and gradually became the new overlord of Beihai, but the overall strength of Beihai was greatly weakened.
Afterwards, many Faxiang ancestors also wanted to bring Feiling Island back to the sky. After all, there are still a lot of resources on it. At the same time, the spiritual veins on Feiling Island are also coveted by all factions, even though this is the only giant spiritual vein in the North Sea. Injured by the war, it descended into a large spiritual vein.
However, Feiling Island's prohibition formation was the last resort set up by the Feiling Sect's Master Hualing for his faction. The purpose was to let the faction launch a large formation to seal off the island to recuperate in times of crisis, with the intention of making a comeback.
The method of Hualing Daoist is so easy to decipher. In the end, the ancestors can only use the flaws in the level of Feiling Island's spirit veins to drop from giant to large, and summon Feiling Island from the bottom of the sea every five hundred years. . However, the Flying Spirit Island that is summoned each time is still closed, and only monks below the initial stage of hemolysis are allowed to enter.
Every time Feiling Island is opened, many hemolytic period monks can get a lot of benefits from it, but there is a ban on Congcong, and monks from different sects fight with each other, which also causes heavy casualties among the monks.
At this time, it was time for the opening of Feiling Island. The Beihai Alliance planned to let each faction send disciples into Feiling Island to collect resources, and finally organize them in a unified way. The side that collected more resources won, and the winning side could get half of the losing side. resources as rewards. Of course, the neutral parties only send disciples in, and do not participate in the struggle between the True Spirit faction and the Xuanling faction.
Every time Feiling Island is opened, only 200 monks can enter, and there is naturally a lot of arguing about the quotas for each faction. In the end, according to the strength, the two factions of Xuanling and Zhenling each get 20 places, and the other factions are stronger than others. Some, such as the Canghai Sect and the Canglang Sect, got fifteen places, and then they were assigned to small sects or independent families with only one place.
When the news came, the True Spirit Sect naturally had to carefully consider it. The True Spirit Sect has a great career, but there are probably thousands of monks in the early stage of hemolysis, and there are also eight or nine hundred monks who choose the third layer of hemolysis. Among them, who has the highest strength? , Whoever has low strength naturally has to think about it.
This is also because there are only five days, and the disciples are scattered all over the place and there is no time to prepare. Otherwise, a selection competition can be held to select the twenty strongest ones.
In desperation, the True Spirit Sect had no choice but to be recommended by the Immortal Chief and the Daoist Duan Dan in the later stage of hemolysis, and then Lu Ping's name appeared in the eyes of the sect's senior leaders.
A small hemolytic second-floor monk was actually recommended by Liu Ziyuan, the fairy head of the other courtyard, and Qu Xuancheng, the resident real person of Xuanqi Island. Jiang Xuanlin, who has always been unrestrained and easy-going, made an exception this time and recommended this Lu Ping.
How can this person be recommended by two powerful true disciples among the real people of the True Spirit Sect's alchemy period
