Chapter 3 Acceptance of Disciples
I have to be suspicious, whether it was in the chatter of those monks in the Southern Heaven Domain who could not distinguish the true from the false in the past, or in the words that Wu Shifang inadvertently mentioned not long ago, there was no mention of such a scene.
There is no way to enter the water to count each one, but only by what you see with your eyes and your divine sense, there are no less than a hundred demon beasts and fierce beasts in the sea below at this moment, which is also talking about the level above, so that the two people and one worm can at least feel the existence of the threat, as for those fish, turtles, shrimps and crabs of lower grades, there are countless and I don't know how many.
The West Sea is vast and boundless, except for the fact that there is no heaven and earth spirit element near Liyun Island, there are always places with strong spiritual energy in other places, and it is not strange that no matter how many demon beasts are bred, it is not surprising that many demon beasts on land must have their own territory, and the same will be true for demon beasts in the sea, and there is absolutely no reason why a large group of demon beasts can live in peace in the same sea area.
There are so many demon beasts, of which there are more than a dozen above the fifth grade, and there are no less than a hundred above the fourth grade, although they can see that they are afraid of each other, but except for some low-level vassal subordinates who are inadvertently devoured, these leaders do not have the slightest intention of fighting, this kind of thing has never heard of except for the ten thousand beasts in the Southern Wilderness Realm earlier.
But unlike the loss of spiritual wisdom in the demon, these demon beasts in the sea in front of him obviously all have not weak wisdom, which makes Ye Zhuo muttered in his heart, as long as he has not completely opened his spiritual wisdom and turned into a demon clan, he is still a beast clan, under his nature, even if he is a little smarter, he will no longer fight to the death like when he encountered a beast, but at least he should expelle each other, but these demon beasts in front of him are like generals, not only do they not fight, but even bind their respective subordinates, all of them are aiming for the same goal, that is, to keep up with Ye Zhuo, from time to time or sneak attack or force killing。
What's more, I can't tell if it's intentional or coincidental, as time goes by, these guys all begin to cooperate, just like wolves hunting when they consume the enemy, not rushing up and killing at the same time, but taking turns to come forward in order to urge their respective means, not only between them, these demon beasts also know to take advantage of the opportunity of the spatial turbulence in mid-air to launch, every time let Ye Zhuo take care of one or the other, or be attacked by a few more spatial turbulences, or resist hard, although there is not much power of magic, but the strength is full of demon beasts water arrows and water wave bombardment, if they are hit continuously, it is not a very pleasant thing, especially for Fox Ling'er to resist。
I don't know why there are so many demon beasts in the sea coming at a few of them, according to common sense, the original territory of these demon beasts may be thousands of miles or even tens of thousands of miles away, how can they know what is going on here, is it true that there is an inexplicable existence commanding them? Or, the demon beasts in the West Sea are different from the land demon beasts in the Southern Heaven Domain or the Southern Wasteland, and there is some kind of connection between them? Once outsiders, such as a few monks and demon beasts like themselves, are discovered, they will all set out to hunt?
I couldn't find a definite answer to everything, and after discussing a few words with Hu Ling'er, I couldn't get any useful conclusions, and on a whim, Ye Zhuo also asked Hu Ling'er if she had ever practiced soul searching and other methods, but unfortunately the answer she got was no, and Ye Zhuo, who was a little disappointed, could only press those doubts to the bottom of his heart first.
Being used as prey by a group of demon beasts, of course, is not a pleasant thing, but there is no way to deal with it for a while, there is no way to get rid of it, and it is impossible to turn back and go back to the vicinity of Cloud Island because of their existence, so they can only let it go.
All in all, after such a large group of demon beasts followed, the trip was a little more difficult than before, the loss of true yuan is easy to say, more of a mental exhaustion, often half a day to start looking for a place to stay, and in the vast ocean, maybe there are two islands that can be parked within thousands of miles, sometimes there is not even one, and you have to go back to the previous place of settlement.
Today's luck is not so good, it took an hour to turn around for more than a thousand miles before it was easy to find an island that is not too big, but there is a small hill, and there is a huge pit on the top of the round mountain, obviously this mountain and this island should have been created by a volcanic eruption many years ago.
After urging the figure to circle around the mountain, the divine sense swept over and found nothing strange, and the two of them fell down one by one. After settling down, without saying a word, they all sat down cross-legged, took out the spiritual liquid, swallowed it, and each urged the mental method to recover.
As usual, with little effort, waves surged around the small island, with a height of fifty or sixty zhang and a low place of no less than forty, surging with an overwhelming momentum, as if the whole island was about to be washed away.
The two people who are already a little accustomed to it, after seeing that the strongest waves have not been able to rush to the top of the mountain, and only some small droplets of splashing water mist are scattered, they no longer pay attention to the many demon beasts hidden under the water, and let them be arrogant, but it is impossible to focus on the mental method, and there are spatial turbulence that may emerge at any time and need to be vigilant at all times.
It was relatively quiet, and there were a few spatial turbulences flashing out, all of which were ten zhang away, and the two of them were able to cultivate at the top of the mountain for more than two hours.
Zhenyuan recovered completely, and most of his mind was restored, Ye Zhuo glanced at the fox Ling'er and the little insect mother who were still practicing the Gong Luck Method, and then set his eyes on the surging waves at the bottom of the mountain, the sky was already dark, and under the hazy moonlight, except for the churning of the waves, he couldn't see too many things clearly, but Ye Zhuo could clearly feel the wisps of hidden breath, and the night seemed to give them more courage, that is, the low-level fish, turtles, shrimps and crabs that did not enter the stream had become a little fierce.
The head demon beast in the sea, Ye Zhuo, is not interested in hunting, let alone these small fish and shrimp that come with the waves, looking at the ocean in the dark, Ye Zhuo's thoughts have drifted elsewhere, calculating that more than ten days have passed, and he has only escaped for less than 30,000 miles after going around and around, if he goes on like this, he doesn't know how long it will take to reach the Southern Wilderness Realm, the spiritual liquid he carries on his body can't support it for so long, thinking that maybe there will be more demon beasts surrounding, maybe the grade will be stronger, Ye Zhuo's expression can't help but be more dignified。
"Uncle, it would be great if Brother Shifang was here, just recite two spells and throw a few talismans, and recruit all of you as subordinates. ”
Ye Zhuo muttered with some depressed hatred, and was about to urge the mind to continue cultivating, when suddenly a fine light flashed in his eyes, and the small fish and shrimp were just that, and there was actually a demon beast above the fourth grade that was mixed in and approached, and Ye Zhuo, who was unhappy in his heart, shouted at the fox Ling'er and the little insect mother beside him, and then jumped up and jumped down the mountain, and the next moment he disappeared into the surging waves.
Ye Zhuo was unhappy because of the demon beast in the sea and wanted to catch a four-grade demon beast for dinner, a ceremony was being held in Qingqiu Mountain, one of the holy places of the distant Southern Heaven Domain, the scale was not large, but only a few people, but if someone saw these people, they would know that this ceremony was high enough, one Yuan Infant was powerful, and four Jindan real people were amazing and even terrifying wherever they were placed.
Yuanying Ancestor accepting apprentices is naturally a big deal, but today the disciple that his own Mei Ancestor wants to accept is really a little incomprehensible, looking at the young women who came over to pour tea for themselves, a few of them were witnesses before, in fact, it was Jindan Zhenren who knew the elders and new disciples, and knew that things could not be changed, but there was still a little puzzlement on his face.
It's no wonder that they have such expressions, just because this time the disciple accepted by the Yuanying Ancestor is not a disciple of his own Qingqiu Mountain. It's not that the apprentices must be their own children to succeed, in fact, even a family like two mountains and three islands in the first generation also needs fresh blood to join, every time a good seedling with a good spiritual root talent is found, if it is private, it is just that, if the news spreads, it will be several families to fight for it.
The girl in front of her is different, although the qualifications are not bad, and she is also a second-class spiritual root talent, but this alone is far from enough to make the Yuanying Ancestor tempted, let alone directly accept the apprentice, even if her cultivation is not weak, she has reached the realm of foundation building, not to mention, this woman named Wu Yue'er is not from the mountains, the child of the family of Zheng'er Bajing, although it is not the same Wu surname from the South Island, but it is also a vassal Gongxuan family, itself is comparable to the family of the Great Sect, and there are also ancestors in the Yuanying realm in the clan, if she really has any extraordinary talent, it is unlikely that she will be buried。
It's just such an inconspicuous little woman in their eyes, but she was favored by Mei Lao Zu and directly accepted as a disciple, this opportunity, even if they are already Jindan real people, they are a little greedy when they look at it, and there may be a little dissatisfaction in their hearts, you know, I don't know how many descendants in their own Qingqiu Mountain want to worship Mei Lao Zu, especially Hu Mei even took her name with Mei Lao Zu, but for so many years, Mei Lao Zu has not received even one formal disciple at all, only a few registered disciples.
The ancestor must have her own reasons, but her old man is reluctant to say it, and several Jindan real people only have two sentences in their hearts, while taking a sip of the teacup, they still have to say kind words, no matter what, with today's experience, this Wu Yue'er is the real disciple of the ancestor, and when it comes to seniority, she is already on the same level as them, and when it comes to identity, she is not much worse than them, even if she is only a junior in the foundation realm.
"It's all gone, Yue'er, you come in with your teacher. ”
Seeing that several people had drunk tea one after another, the ceremony was over, Hu Mei Ancestor did not have the slightest politeness, and directly got up to see off the guests, and without waiting for a few people to say goodbye, he beckoned his newly accepted disciples to walk towards his secret realm cave.
