One Qi Chaoyang

Chapter 427 Jade Fairy Island

Zhao Fuyun fled all the way towards the land of the Great Zhou Kingdom.

Compared to the entire darkness, Da Zhou can only be called Small Zhou, and compared to this vast ocean, Da Zhou is also very small.

Fortunately, Zhao Fuyun’s position was not too deep into the sea.

He still flew along the same route he came. In comparison, his escape light was naturally brighter and more dazzling, but it consumed a lot of mana.

So after escaping for more than a hundred miles, he changed to the method of riding the clouds.

Because the Jade Dragon Gold was already in hand and his goal was achieved, he did not ride the cloud so fast and did not deliberately hide his figure.

So he was stopped.

Because the clouds were low and the waves were high, the cloud he was riding was also relatively low, so a voice suddenly came from the waves below: "Fellow Daoist, please stay."

Zhao Fuyun looked in the direction of the voice, and a light flashed in his eyes. Then he could see clearly that there was a person hiding in the waves and talking to him.

Zhao Fuyun's eyes saw through the dark mist and the waves and saw the person inside, but in his eyes, the person's body was like a piece of clothing floating in the water, rising and falling with the waves.

Zhao Fuyun stopped his cloud, looked at the person in the wave, and asked, "Oh?"

The person in the water saw the golden light flashing in Zhao Fuyun's eyes. He felt that the golden light flashing at that moment actually penetrated the waves and seemed to be able to fall on him. He immediately realized that this person was no simple person.

He then explained: "There is a fierce battle going on in front of Yuxian Island. If you don't want to get involved, please take a detour."

"Oh?" Zhao Fuyun still only answered with one word, but he knew that this was probably the besieged island he encountered when he came here before.

The island was originally called Yuxian Island, but why hasn’t it been conquered for so long?
Zhao Fuyun only responded with one word. The person in the water felt a little flustered for some reason and continued to explain: "Yuxian Island did not abide by the rules we made with the Whale Islands. When we asked them, they could not give us a suitable reason. So we decided to destroy the island and expel the people. Since they did not abide by the covenant, they can no longer stay here."

This person explained the details of the island siege. Although he didn't know what rules were broken, he thought it was just like the secret of Tiandu Mountain, which was not easy to tell to outsiders. He didn't ask about it, but just said: "Why does it take so much time to build such a small island?"

“Fellow Daoist, you are not from this sea, so you don’t know. Jade Fairy Island is best at formations. There are formations of all sizes on the island that have been set up by the Jade Fairy over the past three hundred years. The formations are intertwined and connected to the spiritual veins deep in the island, making them truly difficult to break.” said the man in the water.

"In that case, I'd like to take a look. Don't worry, I won't interfere. I'll just take a look at the magic on the sea."

After saying that, he rode on a cloud towards the Jade Fairy Island.

The cultivator in the water did not dare to stop him. He was sure that the other party must be a Jindan cultivator, because he was at the Kaifu realm. After one look at the other party, he actually felt like he was seen through. He was frightened by the other party's eyes, as if he was afraid that the other party would be angry.

Zhao Fuyun approached the island, and it was indeed the same island he had come to before. However, the island was now shrouded in fog, and it was impossible to see clearly. Not only that, the fog had also spread outside the island.

It was just that the fog was turbulent, with precious lights appearing and disappearing, magic lights flashing, and vital energy turbulent. It was obvious that there were people fighting in the fog.

The formation on the island has not been broken, and he cannot see what the current situation is, whether it is as stable as a rock or about to be broken.

There are similarities between runes, prohibitions and formations, but they also have differences.

Talismans can be said to be the basis for refining weapons and treasures and setting up prohibitions, while formation methods require formation plates or formation diagrams, plus formation flags and other items, combined with terrain, spiritual veins, etc., to form a large formation.

Of course, these formation plates and flags are bound to have runes and restrictions.

The formation is a large and complex collection of knowledge. The formation that Zhao Fuyun set up in Wuze County that year was just the simplest one-element formation. It was not connected to the terrain and spiritual veins. It only used the Red Flame God statue as the base of the formation and the lamps as the nodes of the formation. The flames naturally merged into one.

In this way, the power of the fire brought by the Red Flame Statue was amplified.

Looking at the formation at this moment, he found that he couldn't understand it at all. If he were asked to break it, he could only use brute force. He tried to use the flame of his Red Flame Divine Lamp to see if he could dispel the fog.

At this time, a cultivator rushed up into the sky from below and came to a place not far in front of Zhao Fuyun. Judging from his cultivation level, he must be a cultivator of a great monastery.

He couldn't see through Zhao Fuyun, so he didn't dare to be rude. He just said, "Fellow Daoist, please leave. The Whale Islands are here to clean up the mess. Please leave."

Zhao Fuyun couldn't see the formation clearly and was about to leave. Without saying anything else, he turned around and walked away on the cloud. Naturally, some people here saw him, but they just watched him leave.

Leaving the sky and heading west, after traveling about thirty miles on the cloud road, he saw three people fighting with swords in the sky ahead.

Zhao Fuyun had not seen many sword fights, but he had seen many since he went to sea.

Among the three sword fighters, there were two men and one woman, all of whom were at the Purple Palace level. The woman was sandwiched between the two men, and he could see clearly at a glance that the woman was controlling a pair of bright flying swords, one of which was wrapped around her, very close to her body for protection, while the other sword was moving outside to intercept the attacking flying swords.

The two swords are one in front and one behind, one far and one near. Of course, they sometimes swap positions.

Their opponents each wielded a sword, transformed into flying lights, and attacked the female cultivator in the middle.

The female cultivator's two swords constantly collided with the opponent's sword, slashing each other's swords. Every collision made the opponent's sword, which had already turned into flying light, solidify and emerge from the state of sword light, thus causing the originally extremely fast sword light to stop. Of course, the sword light would soon become stronger again and turn into that flying sword state once again.

They did not stand still in a sword fight, but flew continuously, three of them flying like a revolving lantern, attacking each other with swords.

Zhao Fuyun's appearance aroused their vigilance, but no one stopped.

From Zhao Fuyun's perspective, although the woman's swordsmanship was more sophisticated and the two swords she wielded seemed to be of higher quality, the two male cultivators were not much worse. They seemed to have the upper hand in mentality, because the female cultivator kept flying away into the distance, as if trying to get rid of them.

Zhao Fuyun watched them fighting with swords and learned the tricks of the fight.

Sometimes, many people think that if they have more flying swords than others, the opponent will not be able to stop them and they will win. However, controlling flying swords requires magic power. When you have many flying swords, naturally each sword will receive less magic power, and the sword will have less power. With less power, the speed will be slower, and it will be easy for others to capture it with magic power.

Therefore, the more flying swords you have, the better, unless you have special sword-controlling skills.

The two swords of this female cultivator had a distinct set of sword techniques. Zhao Fuyun discovered that as her two swords moved forward and backward, they seemed to be able to leverage each other's strength, forming a mysterious feeling of yin and yang.

The two male cultivators also wielded swords in a pattern, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, sometimes light, and sometimes heavy. Several times the female cultivator was nearly injured and almost able to break through her double sword defense.

If you keep it for a long time, you will lose it.

Just as he was about to leave, he heard a voice inside laughing, "Wang Feilan, you'd better surrender. We two brothers have been waiting here for a long time, and we knew that one of you would want to report the news."

The woman gritted her teeth. After seeing Zhao Fuyun, an idea came to her mind. She didn't know who Zhao Fuyun was because she had never seen him before. Zhao Fuyun was very conspicuous in his orange robe. She had never seen him in this area before.

And she obviously didn't know the two brothers she was fighting against, because when the man in orange robe appeared, she felt that they were a little more guarded.

They didn't know each other and they weren't leaving for a while, so she wanted to ask them for help.

"Fellow Daoist, could you lend me a helping hand? I will reward you handsomely later." The female monk said loudly.

Zhao Fuyun did not respond.

The two male cultivators said loudly, "This is a matter concerning the Whale Islands. If you don't want to cause trouble, please leave immediately."

Zhao Fuyun ignored it.

He was just watching the sword fight between the two sides and didn't want to care about anything else.

There are so many grudges in the world, the sky is about to get dark, and it is not enough to cultivate oneself.

The female cultivator then spoke up again, "Fellow Daoist, would you be willing to deliver a message to Tiandu Mountain for me, saying that Yuxian Island is under siege and in imminent danger?"

When Zhao Fuyun heard the words "Tiandu Mountain", he couldn't help but feel a little surprised, because he had never thought that this Yuxian Island would have any connection with Tiandu Mountain.

She had two purposes. One was to tell this story to others. As long as it could be spread, maybe Tiandu Mountain would hear about it and come to help Yuxian Island to avenge. The other was to distract the two people who were besieging her and let them stop Zhao Fuyun, so that she could escape.

Of course, there is another possibility, which is that Zhao Fuyun really helped her to go to Tiandu Mountain to deliver a message.

No matter what she was thinking, her goal was to escape, report the news, and then hope to save the entire Yuxian Island.

"What is the relationship between Yuxian Island and Tiandu Mountain?" Zhao Fuyun suddenly asked.

This made the female cultivator happy, because Zhao Fuyun had ignored her before, but this time he spoke up.

"Our island master once studied in the upper academy of Tiandu Mountain, and was also good friends with Master Xun of Tiandu Mountain." The female cultivator said urgently.

The two monks who were besieging her also knew that the situation was about to change, so they used their swords with even more urgency, and said at the same time: "Please do not interfere in the affairs of the Whale Islands. Please leave, fellow Taoist!"
