In the Haze Strait, above a small island, three figures walked through the air.
The young man at the head was wearing a purple star robe. He was Ye Tian who had just left seclusion. There were two strong men beside him who had also reached the seventh level of Martial King. They were the two strongest people among the group of miners who followed Ye Tian out.
Now that he has arrived at the base camp of casual cultivators, he naturally needs casual cultivators to lead the way. He is very lucky. Among the miners he brings out, many are casual cultivators.
Among them, these two strong men at the seventh level of Martial King are casual cultivators. They know the Haze Strait very well. They have lived here for hundreds of years.
These two people were named Wang Lin and Zhou Long respectively. If they were not casual cultivators, with their seventh-level Martial King cultivation, no one would come to rescue them.
"Master Ye, we casual cultivators have the most difficult life. Warriors like us who have reached the seventh level of the Martial King are already considered strong in the Haze Strait, because casual cultivators with a little strength will leave the Three Swords Sea and go to the mainland of China. Zhou Long said.
Ye Tian nodded. In the Sand Sword Sea, all the spirit stone veins were controlled by the three sects and other forces. It was indeed a difficult life for this group of casual cultivators.
Moreover, casual cultivators are often robbed by people from the three sects, which can be said to be dangerous at every step.
"There are only a few dozen strong Martial Emperors in my haze strait. The strongest among them is Martial Emperor Level 5. Most of the rest are Martial Emperor Level 1 and 2. There are very few who have reached Martial Emperor Level 3 or above. "Wang Lin introduced Ye Tian to the situation in the Haze Strait.
There are two major forces in the Haze Strait. They were originally four major forces, but later the leader of one force went to the mainland of China, and the leader of the other force was killed by the people from Di Daomen, so now there are only two major forces left. .
The leaders of the two major forces are both strong men at the fifth level of Martial King. They refuse to obey the other and often compete for territory, making the entire Haze Strait full of killings.
The casual cultivators who come to the Haze Strait must choose a good team, otherwise they will be jointly killed by the two parties, and they will not be neutral at all.
"I used to be a casual cultivator in Qinglong Mountain." Wang Lin said.
Ye Tian nodded, and then looked at Zhou Long, who smiled bitterly and said: "I am a casual cultivator from Phoenix Village. We were originally enemies. When we met outside, we were both injured, and then we were killed by the people of Fengyun Chamber of Commerce. profit."
"Haha!" Ye Tian didn't expect these two people to have such an experience, so he couldn't help but grin.
"But we have reconciled now. There is no grudge anymore in that dark mining area." Wang Lin said with a smile.
"Yeah, anyway, we are just casual cultivators below. It has nothing to do with them fighting for territory. I really regret fighting for them at that time." Zhou Long sighed.
Ye Tian interrupted their sighs and asked: "What is the situation of these two major forces? We are going to stay in the Haze Strait for a while. Which force do you think is best to join?"
"Join Phoenix Village. The leader of our Qinglong Mountain is suspicious, headstrong, and cruel and murderous. Anyone who disobeys his orders is basically seeking death." Wang Lin said with some awe.
"Yes, our Phoenix Village is indeed much better in this regard." Zhou Long smiled and said: "The leader of the Phoenix Village is a woman. None of us know her origins. We only know that she became a woman a long time ago. Although the leader of the village is powerful, she has a very forthright personality and is very popular in the Haze Strait. Many casual cultivators are willing to work for her. "
"Okay, let's go to Phoenix Village now, Zhou Long, you lead the way!" Ye Tian nodded, then took Wang Lin into the small world, and headed to Phoenix Village with Zhou Long.
Zhou Long was very familiar with the Haze Strait and took Ye Tian directly to Phoenix Island, the base camp of Phoenix Village.
"Master Ye, our Phoenix Village is very strict about recruiting people. They must be introduced by one of our own people. If they are not introduced by one of our own people, then they need to be strictly reviewed for five years and then observed for three years before they can officially become insiders." Zhou Long Said to Ye Tian on the way.
"It's really strict. Your village leader is really serious about it. Is Qinglong Mountain the same?" Ye Tian was a little surprised and couldn't help but become more curious about the leader of Phoenix Village.
"Qinglong Mountain is different from us. They accept everyone, so even though the leader of Qinglong Mountain is very cruel, some casual cultivators are still willing to seek refuge in Qinglong Mountain in order to have a place to protect themselves." Zhou Long said.
"What do you regular cultivators do? How do you earn spirit stones?" Ye Tian continued to ask. He urgently needs spirit stones to cultivate. Otherwise, without more than ten years of hard training, he will never be able to advance to the realm of the Martial Emperor.
"We earn spirit stones by doing tasks and practicing." Zhou Long explained to Ye Tian, "We have a task wall in Phoenix Village. As long as you need anything, you can issue tasks on it. Others can choose to take on these tasks and exchange for the items they need through such transactions. Of course, the village leader himself will receive one-tenth of the commission."
"It's really not easy!" Ye Tian's eyes lit up and he became even more curious about this Phoenix Village. Being able to create a task wall, this female village leader is not easy!
"In addition, we can also earn spiritual stones through other methods, such as robbery, hunting monsters, looking for heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and other opportunities." Zhou Long continued.
"Even you are robbing? I'm afraid it's rogue cultivators robbing rogue cultivators, right?" Ye Tian said with a smile.
Zhou Long blushed and said sarcastically: "As long as the disciples of the three sects don't bully us, we casual cultivators have split into two factions and are inherently hostile to each other. Of course, we will also attack some people from smaller factions, especially those who A merchant ship transporting spiritual stones.”
"Can you, the casual cultivators, do it?" Ye Tian had to look suspicious. Even Fengyun Chamber of Commerce's merchant ship transporting spirit stones was manned by Martial Emperor experts, and they were at least Martial Emperor level 3 experts.
"Of course it's not just us. Every time we attack a merchant ship, several of our elders from Phoenix Village join forces. We sneak in, kill some minions, and get some soup to drink." Zhou Long said.
"Aren't you afraid of their revenge?" Ye Tian couldn't help but ask. He could become the worst in the Three Swords Sea and have a strong Martial Emperor. With the strength of a casual cultivator, should he rob
"So what if we're afraid? Even if we don't rob them, when they meet us casual cultivators, they'll just kill us. Instead of letting them kill us, we might as well kill them too." Zhou Long snorted coldly.
Ye Tian nodded understandingly. The place of Sandaohai was too chaotic. There were killings everywhere. Rogue cultivators were at the lowest level, and they had their own reasons to resist.
"It is impossible for a strong man of the Martial Emperor level to lower his body to retaliate against us. Once the remaining Martial Emperors enter the Haze Strait, their eyes will be dark. If we hide, there is nothing they can do." Zhou Long said with a proud smile.
Ye Tian did not question this. The Haze Strait has been able to exist in the Sand Sword Sea for so many years, so it naturally has the capital to survive.
Moreover, Ye Tian guessed in his heart that the forces of the Three Swords Sea did not want the Haze Strait to perish. Otherwise, no matter which of the three sects took action, as long as they sent a Martial Emperor, they could completely wipe out the casual cultivators in the Haze Strait.
"The rogue cultivators have the largest base, and there is no shortage of geniuses among them. The three sects probably hope to absorb some geniuses, so they did not kill all the rogue cultivators." Ye Tian thought this way.
After all, the three major sects all need to develop. To develop, they need talents. Where do these talents come from? Did they give birth to themselves? That's too little.
Most of the disciples of the three sects recruit some talented people from casual cultivators and develop them into their own.
Casual cultivators naturally have no objection to joining the three sects. For homeless people like them, once they join the three sects, their cultivation is basically guaranteed, and it is only a matter of time before they become King of Martial Arts and Emperor of Martial Arts.
"Master Ye, the Phoenix Island is ahead. We need to stop at the port in front for inspection." At this time, Zhou Long pointed to a huge island in front and said.
In fact, without Zhou Long's reminder, Ye Tian had already felt that there were many powerful auras on this island. Although they also encountered many casual cultivators along the way, there were not as many as there were on this island.
Ye Tian even saw many figures flying around in the sky, as if he had suddenly entered a lively big city, which was much more lively than the boundless sea before.
This Phoenix Island is very large, like a small piece of land. There is a small city near the seaside, which is the so-called port.
Ye Tian and Zhou Long flew towards this small city. Along the way, they saw many casual cultivators coming and going in the city, but they ignored Ye Tian and Zhou Long.
However, when approaching the small town, someone from the tower shouted: "Show me your identity token!"
Ye Tian couldn't help but look at Zhou Long, and saw Zhou Long take out a fiery red token from the small world, and said to the casual cultivator on the city gate: "Brother, I am Zhou Long, and I will bring new people to join this time. we."
Zhou Long handed the token to the man.
The man glanced at the token, then took out a thick book and checked it. Not long after, he put away the book and smiled at Zhou Long: "Yes, we do have Zhou Long in Phoenix Village, come in Bar."
Zhou Long nodded, then smiled at Ye Tian and said: "If you don't have an identity token, you will be controlled once you enter Phoenix Island unless you have one of your own with it."
"However, if an enemy kills one of your people and takes your identity token, he can sneak in?" Ye Tian pointed out the loopholes and said.
"It's very simple. You'll know later." Zhou Long smiled mysteriously.
When they entered the city, Ye Tian raised his eyebrows and his face suddenly turned cold. He saw dozens of Martial King strong men surrounding them, including a Martial King-level strongman.
"What do you mean?" Ye Tian looked at Zhou Long with cold eyes.
Zhou Long waved his hands quickly and said, "Don't worry, they won't do anything to us."
Ye Tian nodded coldly, and then looked at the Martial Emperor who came over.
"I am Wu Honglei, the elder of Phoenix Village. Which of you is called Zhou Long?" This is a middle-aged man with an extraordinary bearing, worthy of being the Martial Emperor.
However, Ye Tian did not take this kind of warrior at the level of Martial Emperor seriously, so he did not show the slightest worry and his expression remained unchanged.
"Elder Wu, it's me, I'm Zhou Long." Zhou Long stepped forward and said.
"This elder checked the records and found that you have not been back for more than a few decades. In order to prevent spies from entering, you must be reviewed by Phoenix Village." Wu Honglei nodded to Zhou Long and then said.
"Zhou knows that this is an acquaintance of Zhou's. See if there is anyone on the island. You can ask him to identify Zhou." Zhou Long was prepared and handed a piece of paper to Wu Honglei.
"Okay, just wait!"
Wu Honglei nodded and immediately ordered people to go down and do it.
