Ye Li was also shocked when he heard Ou Qianxie's words.
He had also heard about the attacks on the other three fortresses, but he had not expected their losses to be so great.
There were about 2,000 guards near each fortress, and more than 80% of them were killed, which means that at least 1,500 people died in the attack of the monsters.
Moreover, these 1,500 people all have cultivation levels above the Divine Descent Stage. When Ye Li thought about this number carefully, he couldn't help but be astonished.
Before, his Ye family had less than ten talisman masters in the Descending God Stage, while on the Northern Four Bases side, there were several thousand talisman masters in the Descending God Stage who had died. The gap between the two was really too huge.
Compared with the outside world, the entire Shanhai County is like another marginal world.
After talking about his experiences over the past year, Ou Qianxie asked about Ye Li's progress in weapon casting.
Ye Li told Ou Qianxie that after a year of continuous practice, he felt that he should be able to cast talismans below the mid-level Xuan grade with relative ease.
As for the top-grade Xuan-level talismans, it is still somewhat difficult to cast them.
Ye Li also told Ou Qianxie that he had mastered five body-casting secrets and that his fire-casting secret had reached the middle level of yellow grade. Ou Qianxie was very satisfied with this.
In his opinion, his disciple's talent in both combat and weapon forging was extremely strong, and he had reached this level at such a young age. If the Imperial City didn't want Ye Li, it would be a loss for the Imperial City.
"Ye Li, it seems that you have made great progress this year.
You will stay here for a while, and we will continue to learn casting. You can also go to the shop to practice casting talismans, and strive to improve your casting skills to the top level of Xuan level as soon as possible."
Ou Qianxie spoke after listening to Ye Li's report of everything.
Ye Li naturally would not reject this and nodded with a smile.
… … …
When Ye Li stayed with Ou Qianxie to practice weapon forging, something strange suddenly happened in the martial arts world.
Just when all major forces were focusing their attention on the vicinity of Qilin Ridge in the north, trying to find out the details of this monster disaster, a new and powerful force suddenly appeared in the world.
Of the fifty-three forces that originally depended on the Feng family, seventeen changed their flags overnight and began to erode other surrounding forces, expanding to twenty-one forces in a flash. All of these forces claimed that they belonged to a new organization called Soul Realm, and this mysterious organization suddenly appeared in the martial arts world and called itself the fifth largest holy land in the martial arts world.
Their appearance naturally caused a huge uproar in the martial arts world, and countless people were shocked.
The Feng family, which had lost one third of its vassal power, was naturally furious, and immediately mobilized its men to attack the Soul Realm.
Originally, all the forces in the martial arts world were waiting to see the Soul Realm make a fool of itself.
In their view, an organization like Soul Realm that overestimates its own capabilities will surely perish faster than it emerged.
The Feng family’s rage could destroy the Soul Realm in an instant.
However, after the battle really started, all the people watching discovered that the soul domain that suddenly appeared was not destroyed at all by the Feng family's attack.
The hastily launched attack by the Feng family not only failed to shake the Soul Realm in the slightest, but also caused them to suffer losses again due to underestimating the enemy.
After a war lasted for a month, it suddenly stopped.
After the Feng family found that they could not gain any advantage over the opponent, they slowed down their attack and confronted the opponent.
At the same time, there were rumors in the martial arts world that the masters of the Soul Realm had found masters from the other four holy lands, and after some "friendly exchanges", they were actually recognized by the other four holy lands.
Led by the Imperial City, it was the first to acknowledge the strength of the Soul Realm Super One, and it had indeed reached the holy land standard.
This incident caused the entire martial arts world to be shaken wildly.
The emergence of the Soul Domain quickly changed the entire landscape of the martial arts world. The Soul Domain seemed to be planning to expand rapidly, so after some recruitment, it quickly gathered a large number of vassals and its strength increased rapidly. It didn't take long before it expanded its sphere of influence to a level similar to that of the Feng Family.
Although the hostile relationship between the two sides has not changed, the friction has begun to ease. After all, the Feng family has tried it many times. Unless they attack regardless of the loss and are determined to die together with the other party, they will not be able to shake the foundation of the Soul Realm.
The opponent's plan was obviously planned for a long time, which allowed him to firmly establish himself in the world at such a rapid speed.
The greatest characteristic of the Soul Realm is its extreme proficiency in the power of soul movement.
Among their members, a large number of them are masters who have determined the soul-walking talisman roots, and they have a great advantage in fighting against ordinary spirit talisman masters. This has also attracted the attention of the entire martial arts world, and there are even rumors that the Soul Realm has mastered the method of awakening the soul-walking talisman roots, so naturally it has attracted the attention of many people, and they have begun to deliberately curry favor with them.
Ye Li, Ou Qianxie and many others including An Changsheng were shocked when they saw the Soul Realm suddenly appear and then become the fifth largest holy land.
It was obvious that the mysterious organization they had noticed before was exactly this Soul Realm. However, before they could figure it out, the other party appeared directly from behind the scenes, catching many people who noticed them off guard.
After all, after the other party emerged from behind the scenes, it was clear that there was no need to hide anymore, so everyone, including Ou Qianxie, would no longer be able to continue investigating previous events.
Because this is actually equivalent to directly provoking the Soul Realm, which is something that no force or individual is willing to do.
After some discussion, Ye Li and Ou Qianxie had no choice but to let the matter go and no longer pay attention to it.
After staying in Golden Dragon City for about a month, Ou Qianxie also fully understood the changes that Ye Li had undergone in the past year.
These days, when Ou Qianxie saw that Ye Li's flame had turned half purple and half white, an expression of surprise appeared on his face again.
"Ye Li, has the purity of your Fire Root increased again
Your Fire Element Talisman Root is almost perfect now, the speed of change is too fast!"
Ou Qianxie looked at Ye Li's two-colored flame and spoke.
Ye Li had not told Ou Qianxie before that he had absorbed the Lotus Flame Heart Pool. After all, this involved the help of Tunri, and Tunri did not want to expose himself to Ou Qianxie, so Ye Li did not mention it.
In response to Ou Qianxie's question, Ye Li just vaguely said that he had accidentally absorbed the power of the treasures of heaven and earth, which allowed the root of the talisman to improve again and it would soon reach perfection.
