Immortal Road.

Flying tens of thousands of miles.

Along the way, they gathered together the demonic sects and families from all over the Chu State. This fleet of ships grew larger and larger, and finally gathered more than a thousand ships!

The total number of demonic monks is close to 100,000!

The fleet of Xushen Mountain was in the center, and each sect gathered in front, behind, left and right, and sent representatives to gather on the flagship.

The leader was a veteran Jindan Zhenren with the surname Xu from the main branch Xushen Peak. Although Lin Shan was top-notch in terms of cultivation and prestige among the Jindan stage, Luwu Peak was ranked low among the top five peaks after all, so the leader still had to appoint his confidant to take charge of the overall situation.

He was also happy to have a leisurely time. Every day he would lie on the plywood to enjoy the breeze or meditate in the cabin. He was too lazy to socialize with these people.

Many leaders and elders of affiliated sects came to him tactlessly, wanting to establish relationships and seek favors, but Lin Shan rejected them all because he thought it was too much trouble.

He didn't want to attract too much attention, so the more low-key the trip was, the better.

And just like that, five days later.

The fleet arrived at the Valley of the Lost Demon in the northeast of Jin State.

Lin Shan stood at the bow with his eyes narrowed, looking at the endless darkness ahead. The rolling demonic energy had spread and covered everything in sight. It was terrifying, thick, deep and bottomless.

The black fog rolled like ink, and suddenly a green light flashed inside.

It flew towards the fleet and was caught by the leader.

"Everyone, all ships, tie up iron chains now, follow behind the flagship, and do not act on your own. If you get lost in the evil spirit, you will die, don't expect me to save you!"

Clank, clank, clank~~~
This time the flagship was in the lead, and all the ships were connected front to back, with iron chains tied on both sides. Anyone could walk around on the deck, regardless of strong winds and waves, as if walking on flat ground, and they were closely connected.

This is to prevent anyone from falling behind. It is said that the Fallen Demon Valley is full of fog and dangers. If one does not follow the route previously opened up by Xushen Mountain, one may very likely fall into the depths and lose his way.

After some operations, the fleet headed towards the Demon Valley.

People were in panic all around. They all stood out and looked outside the boat, but visibility was extremely low and all they could see was a thick demonic aura.

There was a pungent and choking smell in the breath.

"It is said that this demonic energy overflowed from the demon world, and after being diluted by the heaven and earth of this world, it became what it is now. For those who practice demonic skills, it is simply heaven."

As everyone was discussing carefully, some monks who practiced demonic energy were indeed overjoyed. They sat cross-legged and practiced their skills with all their strength, trying to absorb the demonic energy from the outside world into their bodies. They felt so comfortable that they almost couldn't help moaning!
Lin Shan ignored these people and quietly sensed his surroundings. Suddenly, his brows furrowed.

Because he found something wrong.

There was a group of people outside who were watching quietly from a distance, then pointing and making various gestures, and finally retreating silently.

After a while, large troops arrived from three sides and surrounded them secretly.

"Not good, it seems the other three forces have also discovered this reinforcement and are planning to intercept and encircle them!"

Lin Shan was puzzled. With so many people barging in so ostentatiously, it would be strange if they didn't attract attention. And there wasn't a Nascent Soul cultivator to escort them?

Just as he was thinking this, the chains under his feet suddenly burst out with a blue light, which spread to all the spaceships. Countless blue light coatings covered the entire fleet, and they suddenly became invisible into the void and disappeared!

shuh~
The camp that surrounded them from three sides just approached, but ended up finding nothing!

"What about people?"

"what happened?"

"Where are you going!"

They looked at each other and the other teams in confusion. A cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage went forward to check and shook his head.

"They escaped into the space crack between the main world and the void. I guess they didn't get far. Chase them!"

Everyone turned around and chased into the Demon Valley.

On the other side, a blue light curtain opened up, and the fleet reappeared after traveling for a distance.

Everyone on the boat was so frightened that they were breathing rapidly, and unknowingly entered a space compartment. Next to them was a reverse space turbulence. Once caught in it, there was a certain death, just like walking on a suspended plank road.

"Everyone, don't panic. This is the sect's spiritual treasure, the Sky Escape Rope. Elder Shenxian gave it to me before I left. I will escort the army in the rear to support the front line and ensure that there will be no worries along the way."

A heavy voice was heard throughout the thousands of ships. It was the voice of the leader of this trip to Xushen Mountain.

Lin Shan looked towards the flagship and found that the man took out two fifth-grade super-quality spirit stones and installed them on the iron chain.

He originally didn't pay much attention to this lock, thinking it was just a simple magic weapon. Unexpectedly, he was mistaken, it turned out to be a spiritual treasure!
Squat down and touch it, and then identify it with the enhanced panel.

【Escape Rope】

Quality: Lingbao

Introduction: A large-scale locking magic treasure, which can carry the target into the space layer and pass through it. It has a slight air-breaking effect, a space stealth coating, extremely high toughness and durability, and is afraid of water and thunder.

(The mind of the God Wu Zhenjun of Xushen Mountain is attached to it)

Enhancement required: 128 points

He stood up and understood instantly.

It is obvious that Xushen Mountain cannot just sit there and do nothing. There are elders in the Nascent Soul stage hiding in secret to escort the spiritual treasure.

This air-escaping rope is truly extraordinary and very suitable for the army to make long-distance raids. It seems that they will be able to reach the front line without any worries.

He did not take action. A mere acquired spiritual treasure was not worth disrupting his plan. It would be best to let the reinforcements complete the journey smoothly without any unexpected problems.

Moreover, in his opinion, it would be most convenient and safest for the army to go on an expedition with the Lingbao Cave genius. This thing was too bulky.

After speeding for several hours, whenever they felt an abnormal aura chasing from behind, the fleet would activate their magic treasures to escape into the turbulent space and always be able to escape.

Lin Shan saw clearly that a total of five fifth-level spirit stones were consumed to activate the spiritual treasure.

And ahead, the fog gradually dissipated.

A huge camp with lights appeared before our eyes!

The overall shape is Bagua, with countless sects and forces performing their respective duties and stationed in the divided areas, together forming an iron wall.

In the center there is a alchemy cauldron dozens of feet high. A blazing flame burns at the furnace mouth, dispersing the evil spirit within a radius of dozens of miles. The red flames act like a heat source, providing light and heat.

The smoke emitted by the fire wave extended to form a transparent light shield, protecting everything inside from erosion.

"Routine inspection!"

Outside the camp, sentries came down to verify the identities of everyone, and there were Nascent Soul cultivators on duty to scan them one by one.

The leading cultivator from Xushen Mountain stepped forward and handed over a letter, which was written by the sect leader before he left.

"Elder Xu Xing, this time, following the orders of the Holy Land and the headmaster, we have brought 101,200 reinforcements. Here is the letter and the roster, please check and review them!"

"Okay, I got it. Fairy Yunxi is in the central army camp. I will go and report to her later." The elder Xuxing who was guarding the gate had sharp eyes. He checked everyone one by one like a hawk, and he really found out a lot of spies of unknown origin!

When it was Lin Shan's turn, he looked at him several times.

"Xu Jizi? How could you still be alive? No, you are still in the Golden Core Stage, and your cultivation has been damaged!"

"Meet Elder Xu Xing."

Lin Shan bowed his head, with no expression on his face.

The remaining soul of Xu Jizi secretly reminded him that Xu Xingzi was an old rival in the sect. He had been suppressed by Xu Jizi since he was a child. Now, more than a hundred years have passed, and Xu Jizi has become a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, but he has fallen to such a state. It is really sad.

Someone came up and whispered a message to Xu Xingzi, who laughed after hearing it.

"So that's how it is. You actually took the elixir that prolongs life! You are only at the Jindan stage. It's really a waste of resources. You and I are no longer on the same level. There is no point in fighting for loyalty. Just go in."

As he spoke, he seemed to lose interest. He casually checked, waved his hand, and let Lin Shan in.

This made some of the older generations of the magic world who originally wanted to see the joke secretly feel regretful.

Lin Shan expressed his gratitude and followed the Jindan Zhenren from the five major veins of Xushen Mountain to report to the central military camp.

Along the way, they passed the camps of many sects and families, all of which were brightly lit as if it were daytime. The number of cultivators coming and going was frighteningly large, and many injured and disabled people were receiving treatment. A solemn and murderous atmosphere lingered.

Until we arrived at the central army, we realized that the monks here were completely different from those in other camps. The fragrance of elixir lingered everywhere, refreshing the heart and mind. Just taking a breath made us feel ecstatic.

The key point is that it is extremely hot here. The alchemy cauldron that is dozens of feet high emits surging heat. The flames are burning fiercely, and only when you get close can you hear the crackling sound inside.

"Is he refining the elixir?"

Everyone had their own guesses, but there was no way they could see inside.

There were not many disciples walking around in the camp, only about a thousand or so, but each of them wore a white robe with a blue edge, and a blue tripod embroidered on the cuffs, which was the symbol of the Alchemy Holy Land.

Although not many people come to the holy land, he is obviously the protagonist here.

This was the first time that Lin Shan saw so many disciples from the holy land, and this was in the Fallen Demon Valley. He silently assessed this place in his mind. It seemed that the Danding Holy Land attached great importance to this place.

After all, the Holy Land wants to deploy a comprehensive layout in this world, and there will definitely be differences in the manpower dispersed to each place. The fact that thousands of people can be sent here is enough to show their weight!

In his opinion, the cultivator with the lowest cultivation level in the entire camp was a Foundation Establishment cultivator, there were as many as two hundred Golden Core cultivators, and more than two dozen Nascent Soul cultivators.

As for whether there is an incarnation of the old monster Yuanshen's Yuannian above the Yuanying, this is not something he can detect.

The key thing is that this alchemy cauldron actually supports the defense formation of the huge camp with its flames and smoke!
Could it be.
Tongtian Lingbao? ! !

He suppressed the shock in his heart, and silently followed the people from the five major clans of Xushen Mountain into the central military tent.

There were about seventy or eighty people sitting inside, it was packed.

Among them are those in the Nascent Soul stage and the Golden Core stage. There are more than thirty Nascent Soul stage cultivators alone!
Half of them were from Danding Holy Land, and the rest were from Xushen Mountain in Chu State, other sects, and recruited independent masters.

Fairy Yunxi, whom I had met before, happened to be sitting in the fourth seat.

Above her, there were three people, a white-haired old man, a mature woman in palace dress, and a young man with silver eyes. Their cultivation was all unfathomable, and at least on the surface, it seemed that at least they were at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage!
The entire seating arrangement is also very particular. There are only five seats on the stage, four for the Holy Land and one for Xushen Mountain.

The audience below the stage were divided into two rows, one row was the Nascent Soul Golden Elixirs from the Holy Land, and the other row was the Nascent Soul Golden Elixirs from various families in the State of Chu. They were clearly distinguished, and their expressions and movements were vastly different.

The people from the Holy Land all had serious faces, did not smile, and did not say a word. The monks from the Chu State were more reserved, and they would smile from time to time with a fawning look, revealing a sense of humility.

Only the Nascent Soul cultivator on the stage could be on an equal footing with the people from the Holy Land, and his words still had some weight.

"Now that you're here, find some empty seats in the back and be quiet as soon as possible."

No one dared to disobey this man's order. Lin Shan followed the team and sat down at the end of the tent, and then listened to the whole process. He had no right to speak here.

"This is the great elder of Xushen Mountain, Master Shenwu, the leader who destroyed the Jiuyou Sect back then and established our sect's hegemony in the State of Chu! He is now a thousand years old. We have used all our strength to give him all the life-extending elixirs, just to maintain our sect's position in the State of Chu."

The remaining soul of Xu Jizi secretly introduced them to Lin Shan one by one.

"The one below is Shen Yun Zhenjun"

"The one below is Master Shen Ji."

"The one below is Master Shen Ting."

"Next is True Lord Xu Xing."

"True Lord Xuwu."

"Xu Ying Zhen Jun."

"True Lord Xugou."

"True Lord Jiwangzi"

"Um???"

The voice of Xu Jizi's remnant soul trembled, and Lin Shan looked in the direction of his gaze.

A middle-aged man with a handsome face, masculine eyebrows and a straight nose was looking straight at him, smiling, raising his glass and toasting Lin Shan from a distance.

"Is this your disciple, Jiwangzi?"

Lin Shan looked at him curiously for a few more seconds, then raised his cup and toasted him back.

Ji Wangzi was obviously stunned by this action, then he smiled again, turned his head and stopped looking here.

This person is already in the Nascent Soul stage, and beside him, there are two other Nascent Soul cultivators, both of whom are from Luwu Peak!

"Ji Yuanzi and Ji Kangzi, you are both Yuanying. Great!"

The remaining soul of Xu Jizi was in a daze, muttering to himself in the token, feeling indescribably sad and bitter for a moment.

"Are those two also disciples of Xu Jizi?"

"Yes, Xu Jizi has three disciples. I didn't expect that there are three Yuanying in the family, but the master is still in the Jindan stage."

"I guess the treasures in the treasury that can help you achieve Nascent Soul have all been used by them, right?"

"It should be. These little guys, their ancestors have been reluctant to let go of the legacy for so many years, and now they have it in their hands, they are the ones who are ruining it! Aren't they worried that after they pass on, the next generation of Luwu Peak will not have any legacy left, and what will happen if there is a lack of successors?"

After hearing this, Lin Shan secretly shook his head. It turned out that Xu Ji Zi was still a bit conservative in his thinking. If it were him, he would definitely use up all the resources first and cultivate a few more Nascent Soul cultivators in Wanhui Nian!
The future is the future, why think so far ahead?
While they were chatting here, those Nascent Soul cultivators above were also chatting, but the topic turned to the general situation of the Fallen Demon Valley!
"Fairy Yunxi, you explored deep into the Demon Valley a few days ago. Did you find any signs of the demon tide retreating?"

"Yes, based on the time it takes for the tide to rise and fall in the past, plus my calculations based on this field investigation, the demonic tide will recede again in less than two months!"

Zhang Yunxi raised her white jade finger and led everyone to look at the huge map of the Demon Valley behind them.

"In the last four-way war, our Dan Ding Holy Land captured the West Valley. Cave No. 1 and Cave No. 2 have been fully developed. This time, our target is Cave No. 3! If we want to catch up with the other three in terms of progress, we must take all the Demon Realm Source Qi and Molten Demon Crystal Cores inside at once!" (End of this chapter)
