Chapter 280: The Domineering Withering Victory
There are several customary routes in the Luo Xing Outer Sea, and the high-level demon beasts around these routes have long been swept away, plus there are several obvious coordinates as references, so most of the Luo Xinghai monks who enter and leave the outer sea are acting along these routes.
Of course, if you feel that you are strong and have nowhere to go, then you can also act at will, but such a person will either be powerful for a while, or die unexpectedly, and ordinary people will rarely choose this.
However, just 10,000 miles away from a certain route, there is a small island with a radius of thirty or forty miles, and there are more than 300 people living on it, most of these 300 people are because of various shipwrecks and accidentally fell here, their cultivation is not high, they can't fly, and even the Xuanjing on their bodies is very small, even if there is a flying boat, it is not enough to fly back to the Luoxinghai Islands or even fly to the normal route, so they are trapped here.
There is no spiritual vein on the island, only a little bit of Xuan Qi escaping from the spiritual veins on the seabed nearby, this Xuan Qi is not as good as the Xuan Qi provided by the first-order spiritual vein, and it cannot be provided to everyone to cultivate at all, and the monks cannot absorb the Xuan Qi for a long time, which will lead to the degradation of cultivation, so among the more than 300 people on the island, more than 200 people have degenerated into mortals, and only a few dozen people are left struggling to support it.
Such a treacherous environment made the monks on the island extremely distressed, and they tried every possible way to get out of here, but there were very few who succeeded, and even said that they had never heard of anyone who succeeded, either lost their mana, fell into the sea and drowned, or were swallowed by monsters along the way.
In the long run, there are already many people who are desperate, they no longer think about how to go back, but how to live, and even settle down on the island, but the island is so big, the materials are extremely scarce, and it slowly declines into a primitive tribe.
And the monks who still insist on wanting to go back are pinning their hopes on luck, the open sea of Luo Xinghai is extremely dangerous, not only there are demon beasts, but also storms, and all kinds of mysterious phenomena, often let the monks who go to sea capsize, and the materials on those treasure ships or the remains of the monks will sometimes be washed up on the island, bringing them something to maintain a weak cultivation.
Some people have been holding on for decades, and some people are insisting that the longevity yuan is exhausted and they sit down early, but now the people on the island are lucky, because they rescued a high-ranking monk this time.
·········
Li Muxue sat on a reef on the beach, looking at the endless sea in front of her, but her mind flew back to the Heavenly Saint Sect, she had been away from home for too long, she began to miss the sect, where there were masters who responded to her needs, there were junior brothers and sisters who flattered her, and there were countless thousand spirit wine and white mist tea.
"Sister Snow, Sister Snow"
A call pulled Li Muxue's mind back to reality, and a little girl who looked black appeared in front of Li Muxue, holding a big crab in her hand.
"Xiao Xin, you only caught crabs today."
Li Muxue responded, looking at the little girl in front of her, Li Muxue remembered her former self, when she had just entered the Heavenly Holy Sect, how could she not be like this, tanned, innocent and romantic.
"I couldn't catch a fish, so I ran away"
The little girl named Xiao Xin replied in distress that crabs were not welcome on such islands, because there was no meat at all, and only fish were their only source of meat.
"It's okay, wait a while, sister will help you catch fish"
Li Muxue replied, and then glanced at the two figures on the shore, which were the two monks who had come to supervise her.
A few months ago, Li Muxue hit the Cold Blood Demon Lord at a huge cost, and he fainted while fleeing, but he didn't expect that the flying boat still ran out of Xuanjing halfway, and then fell into the sea and was washed here by the sea.
In the end, Li Muxue was rescued by the monks on the island, and the monks on the island knew that she was a high-ranking monk as soon as they saw Li Muxue's storage bag and the flying boat she used, so they were extremely excited, thinking that they could take the opportunity to leave here.
However, after Li Muxue woke up, she found that most of her meridians were broken, and she couldn't mobilize any Xuan Qi, let alone open the storage bag, it was difficult to even mobilize it.
This news made the monks on the island extremely disappointed, so they immediately changed their minds and took away Li Muxue's storage bag and flying boat, of course, they couldn't open the storage bag, with their divine soul power, it was impossible to polish Li Muxue's mark without a few decades.
And their attitude towards Li Muxue was also contradictory, they wanted Li Muxue to recover from their injuries and open the storage bag to take them away, but they were afraid that Li Muxue would leave them alone after recovering her status as a high-level monk, and even kill them because of some previous contradictions.
This kind of worry is not groundless, the concept of hierarchy in the immortal cultivation world is very strict, between high-level monks and low-level monks, it is like two different worlds, many high-level monks have a brutal personality, they don't treat low-level monks as human beings at all, and they can kill them with a wave of their hand.
So they sent two people to monitor Li Muxue and check Li Muxue's condition, and this kind of scene has been in this situation for several months.
Li Muxue never ignored them, just pretended not to see them, and soon, Li Muxue took a wooden fork and helped Xiao Xin fork two sea fish of more than ten catties, and returned to the village together.
This stockade is the village of all the people on the island, located in the middle of the island, and there are huge spears cut from tall trees on the outside of the stockade, which are stuck in the ground, and the sharp end is pointed outward, which is used to defend against sea beasts.
"Brother, brother, Sister Xue helped me catch fish again, Sister Xue is so amazing"
As soon as Xiao Xin entered the village, she cheered, and a strong man in his twenties walked out of a thatched house, and the strong man looked at Li Muxue, and quickly lowered his head, did not dare to look at him, and blushed.
"Miss Li, I'm sorry for you"
"It's okay, it's what I'm supposed to do"
Li Muxue replied lightly, and a middle-aged man appeared in front of her, it was Xiao Xin's father, and he was also one of the few people on the island who still had a little cultivation, and in the past few months, Xiao Xin's father was helping her.
Although Li Muxue's cultivation is completely lost, she is a high-level monk in the end, her body is nourished by Xuan Qi, she is much stronger than ordinary people, and she can carry two or three hundred catties of heavy objects without any cultivation, so fishing and hunting are not very difficult for her, and it is precisely because of her strong physical fitness that Li Muxue can save herself several times in this village.
As soon as she thought of this, Li Muxue's heart was ruthless, when she first arrived here, the injuries on her body were not healed, and there were few women on the island, most of them were men, it is conceivable that those men looked at Li Muxue with what kind of eyes, if she hadn't worked hard, maybe something more tragic would have happened.
"Xiao Wu, what are you still doing in a daze, don't help yet"
The middle-aged man glared at his son, and the strong man quickly reacted, took the sea fish from Li Muxue's hand, and took it back to the thatched house to cook.
"Miss Li, how are you injured?"
"Loss of muscles and veins, no pills, not so fast"
"Hey, Miss Li, if you want me to say, you just put out the mind of going back, it's good here, there is no deception in the immortal cultivation world, no..."
The middle-aged man had a dignified face, and taught Li Muxue Chunchun, there was only one meaning in his words, that is, to stay, of course, the other meaning of staying was to marry his son.
There are more than 300 monks on the island, and there are less than 30 female nuns, and except for children like Xiao Xin, who are seven or eight years old, there is not a single unmarried woman, so his son is almost thirty years old and has not yet married.
Li Muxue didn't answer, didn't agree or refused, treated each other in silence, the middle-aged man stopped after talking for a while, he had patience, he believed that as long as he persisted for a year or two, Li Muxue would be persuaded by him sooner or later.
And once Li Muxue marries into their family, it can bring him great benefits, there are fewer and fewer Xuanjing on the island, and there are fewer and fewer monks, and when everyone degenerates into mortals, a person with strong physical fitness like Li Muxue will be the force on the island, not to mention that Li Muxue can also give them a family inheritance.
In the afternoon, Li Muxue and the rest of the village went into the dense forest behind the village to pick wild vegetables and fruits, and the village also sent special personnel to protect them.
Li Muxue relied on her strong physical fitness and dared to go to the depths of the jungle that were more dangerous, which ordinary villagers did not dare to go, but the immortal cultivators on the island could go in, but they would not waste precious Xuan Qi because of fishing and hunting, on the island, they were also higher-level superiors, never participating in labor, and would only ask for everyone's results.
And what they pay is powerless, when a lone demon beast or sea beast wants to go ashore, to protect the villagers, although this possibility is extremely small, maybe less than once in decades, but there is no doubt that they have become the top of the island's social ecology.
Li Muxue jumped between the giant trees, quickly avoiding the people who were watching, and then stretched out her hand and probed on the trunk, and the green light was drawn from the trunk and flowed into Li Muxue's body, disappearing.
In the past few months on the island, Li Muxue has never stopped saving herself, at first she was thinking about finding elixir and refining elixir to save herself, but there is no spiritual vein on the island, there is no elixir at all, and the few that come from outside are also in the hands of immortal cultivators.
There is no elixir, let alone mineral veins, it can be said that there is nothing here, only a large dense forest, and Li Muxue later hit the idea on the dense forest.
The withered glory she practiced was extremely strong and domineering, not only able to use the deadwood potential and withering power to destroy the enemy's vitality, but also to use the means in the Rongzi formula to transfer vitality.
The reason why Rong Zi Jue is regarded as a treasure by Ling Zhifu is because he can do this, through the transportation of vitality, so that Ling Zhi can grow rapidly and mature the elixir.
But now Li Muxue is depriving the giant tree of its vitality and transporting it into her body to treat the broken tendons.
Li Muxue didn't dare to deprive a giant tree of all its vitality, at most about one-tenth, so that outsiders wouldn't seem to find the problem.
Fortunately, there are so many giant trees here that Li Muxue can use her free time every afternoon to deprive more than a dozen big trees of one-tenth of their vitality, and when it comes to the evening, she will refine these vitality.
