The vast East China Sea is endless.

The sun is full of light and fog Yao Pond, and the green smoke dances with the wind.

Su Chen rode the wind, and soon came to the edge of the East China Sea, from here, the vast East China Sea stretched endlessly, stretching to the end of the sky.

Under the sunshine, a fairy island seems to loom at the end of the sky.

In the meantime, you can see the auspicious light, like a rainbow, and there are clouds and mist, and occasionally see the rainbow light flying, and the gods are incomparable.

Such a grand scene also attracted many coastal people to stop and watch.

There are even many fishing boats and boats, riding the wind to go to sea, wanting to go to the fairy island in the far sky to explore the fairy traces, but no matter how they sail, they will be disturbed by the fog and sea breeze, and after a circle, they will return to the place of departure.

The trace of the fairy island is difficult for mortals to find, and the opportunity is unobtainable.

Su Chen shook his head slightly.

I didn't pay too much attention to it, I was hunting in my robes, the clouds and mist were shrouded under my feet, and I moved in the wind, and my long gray hair fluttered in the wind, like an immortal, crossing the East China Sea.

In a short time, the immortal island on the sea shrouded in clouds and mist had already appeared in sight.

This Penglai Immortal Island is much bigger than he imagined, the surrounding water waves are rolling and undulating, like a spring protruding from the sea, supporting the whole island slightly higher than the sea surface, and the water waves splash and fall from all sides, like a waterfall, making a roaring sound of water.

The island is surrounded by mountains and lush vegetation.

Some of them are common flowers and trees on land, but there are also many plants and aquatic plants that can only be found in the deep sea, and you can even see many marine creatures that are brought up by the islands when they rise.

It's a magical island.

Many rocks have long been washed away by the sea to become reefs, like a seabed scene, but there are also some areas that still maintain the appearance of the land, and it seems that they will not be eroded on the seabed.

"It should be that there are some formations and other things on this island, which can isolate some of the seawater erosion on the seabed, so the vegetation on land can be preserved. However, after 60 years of sinking to the bottom of the sea, it is possible for plants to survive, but it is difficult for terrestrial life. ”

Su Chen Shennian glanced down and found that most of the creatures in the mountains and forests were some sea creatures that had been brought ashore, but there were not many land creatures.

It is no wonder that every time Fairy Island sinks, everyone has to be driven away, and it is expected that the underwater environment should not be enough to support the survival of humans and animals.

It's worth mentioning though.

Because of the silence in the deep sea for sixty years, relying on the island's spirit gathering array, absorbing the aura in the deep sea, so after this Penglai Immortal Island surfaced, the aura was very full.

Although it may not be as rich as the legendary Middle-earth Immortal Cultivation World, it is several times richer than the Southwest Land.

Su Chen flew over the island, took a deep breath, and felt refreshed, and the mana in his body was running much smoother.

This is the benefit of being full of aura, living in this environment, ordinary people can prolong their lives, and practitioners can make rapid progress.

So.

Every time the Immortal Island is opened, almost all the immortal cultivators in the southwest will come here, even if they know that they have no chance to pass through the teleportation array, they will come here to increase their strength with the help of the aura cultivation here.

In addition, you can also communicate and trade with other immortal cultivators, and there are also many treasures brought out of the deep sea on the island, if you are lucky enough to find it, it will be a great opportunity.

Between thoughts.

A gray light flew from below, followed by several figures flying in other directions.

Towards the center of the island, an ancient castle tower converges.

That was where the sect of the former Penglai Immortal Sect was located, different from the small sect of the Sifang Sect, the former Penglai can be described as a famous big sect, even now, there is still a heritage in Middle Earth, and it is really a long history, so their former sect station is also magnificent, not a mountain gate, but a whole city!

Its scale is not much lower than that of the Great Chu Emperor.

It's just that because it has been uncared for for many years, and most of the time it has been buried under the deep sea, this city looks a little dilapidated and vicissitudes, and every brick and stone exudes the ancient atmosphere of time.

At this time.

It has been more than half a month since the opening of the fairy island, and a large number of scattered cultivators have gathered from all directions, making this Penglai City, which has been silent for many years, a little more vigorous.

In the center of the city, countless arrays of Ming culture beams converged here, forming a huge and majestic teleportation portal.

At this time, there were also many Middle-earth immortal cultivators flying from there.

Su Chen glanced at it from a distance, most of them were immortal cultivators in the Qi Refining Realm, and their cultivation was also uneven, some were very strong, and some were just as weak.

As for the powerhouses of the foundation realm, they are extremely rare.

It is estimated that in Penglai City at this time, all the foundation building powerhouses add up, and they are only five fingers.

"It's too terrifying, I'll try to keep a low profile. Let's go into the city first and find out what is going on. ”

Between thoughts.

Su Chen had already lowered his flight altitude, his divine thoughts were running, and the mana fluctuations on his body were also covered and suppressed, maintaining around the fourth layer of qi refining.

This strength is considered medium in the city at this time, not too high and not too low, and it can avoid some unnecessary troubles.

At this time, there were still many monks who had not arrived, so there were many empty houses in the city that could be used as temporary places to stay.

Su Chen didn't rush to find a place, but followed the breath of the Fu Seal, found Zhou Yi and the others first, and joined them.

"Meet the Patriarch!"

In the deep courtyard, Su Chen flew down, and Zhou Yi and the others immediately had a sense, and they walked out of the room one after another and bowed down to worship.

Su Chen nodded, it seems that Zhou Yi has accumulated a lot of experience in the rivers and lakes over the years, and he has been vigilant and prepared in advance.

waved his hand to make everyone get up, and then led Zhou Yi into the inner hall and asked about the situation on the island.

Zhou Yi and the others have been here for a few days, and they have explored and explored in many ways, so they have some understanding.

He handed over a crude map that had just been drawn.

It is roughly divided into different areas.

"The central area of the city here is where the core of the teleportation array and the large array on the island is located, and it is also the place where the aura is most abundant, but the people who live over there are all immortal cultivators from Middle Earth, who are powerful, and there are strong people who build a foundation, and it is forbidden to approach them in general......

"In front of here, there was a central street, and now it is the square district. All casual cultivators and practitioners from Middle-earth will make some transactions here. ”

"To the east is the area where we are now, and most of the casual cultivators live here, cultivating with the help of this place's spiritual energy......"

"To the west, it leads to the bottom of the mountains and valleys on the island outside the city, and many immortal cultivators will go to this area to explore the treasures on the island and loot the secret treasures brought out from the bottom of the sea......"

Because Zhou Yi and the others have not been here for a long time, they can only have a general understanding, and they don't know more about the situation.

But it's nice to have this basic information, at least you don't have to run around like headless flies.

"What's next for you?"

Su Chen asked at this time.

Zhou Yi hurriedly replied: "This place is full of spiritual energy, which is several times better than that of Chu State, and it is a rare opportunity to practice. The disciples and those apprentices knew that their strength was weak, and they didn't plan to go out on an adventure, so they planned to take advantage of this time to cultivate hard and strive to improve before the Immortal Ascension Ceremony. ”

"Well, it's safest to do that."

Su Chen nodded, he still had some confidence in Zhou Yi.

This son has a good talent, and he has cultivated the orthodox Dao Sect Mental Method since he was a child, and his foundation is much thicker than that of ordinary casual cultivation.

Now that he is only one step away from the fourth layer of Qi refining, if he cultivates well for a while, he will have a chance to go further.

When the time comes, there should be a chance to grab a spot.

As for the other disciples, it depends on luck, and Su Chen didn't have much hope.

He also left Zhou Yi with some pills and exercises used in cultivation, and Su Chen didn't stay any longer, got up and left.

He planned to go to the city market first, and exchange for some things that needed to be purchased.

The city is huge, but because there are no ordinary people, the streets are a bit empty.

Su Chen walked all the way, and only saw a few monks, most of them were in a hurry, guarding each other and staying away.

These people are all loose cultivators in the southwest, and they have experienced the sinister hearts of people.

Su Chen would not rush to contact them.

After a short time, I came to the Fang City area marked on the map, and it was suddenly much more lively.

I saw that on the long street, people came and went, and there were hundreds of immortal cultivators gathered here, some setting up stalls on both sides of the street, and some were wandering around, looking at the things on the stalls, looking for items that suited them.

Su Chen secretly urged Qianhuangong, changed his appearance, and made up as a middle-aged man.

This disguise-changing martial art, in fact, is used in the world of cultivating immortals, and it is already a little unsatisfactory, and it is easy to be seen by others.

But fortunately, Su Chen's divine thoughts are strong and can isolate other people's visits.

As long as you don't encounter a master whose divine thoughts are stronger than your own, it is still enough to disguise for the time being.

When he was ready, he began to search through the stalls.

At this time, there were many monks gathered in Penglai City, and their strength was far stronger than when they were gathering in Tianmai Mountain, so the quality of the things on the stalls was also much higher.

Su Chen saw a lot of good things.

For example, some rare demon beast materials, elixir spirit grass that has grown for many years, various fragments dug up from the ruins of the cave, and some magic weapons, talisman seals and the like for sale, but most of them are very ordinary, and Su Chen can't look down on them.

After inquiring in front of a few stalls, Su Chen learned that there were two ways to trade here.

One is the same barter as the Tianmai Mountain Festival, which is the most primitive and requires both parties to have what they need, so the success rate is not high, and many people set up stalls all day and did not open.

Most of the people who use this trading method are local casual cultivators.

On the other hand, you can trade spirit stones or something called spirit beads.

The so-called spirit stone is an ore containing spiritual energy, which can increase mana by absorbing the spiritual energy in it, quickly replenish and restore strength, and can also be used as a material for arranging large arrays and refining puppets.

After all, not everyone is like Su Chen, who can use the power of the sun's radiance, so their formations and puppets are inseparable from the spirit stone as a drive.

From this point of view, Su Chen's cultivation of the idea of the sun view is still a very cost-effective exercise.

The so-called spirit bead is a unique product of Penglai Immortal Island.

Because Xiandao sank to the bottom of the sea for sixty years before, relying on the formation to absorb the aura of the seabed will naturally attract some special creatures in the sea, and they will give birth to something called a spirit bead in their bodies, which is similar to the demon beast Neidan on land, but it is more pure and gentle, and can be directly absorbed as a spirit stone.

The vast majority of immortal cultivators who came from Middle-earth came for the spirit beads on the island.

Or go to explore and hunt to obtain spirit beads by yourself, and there are also stalls like this to sell some items in the Middle-earth Immortal Realm, driving those scattered cultivators to go out and fight for their lives in exchange for spirit beads.

Lingzhu, of course Su Chen doesn't have it now.

However, I got some from the storage bag of the green-robed young man before, about a dozen yuan, and I don't know how many things I can buy?

He took a look at those stalls, and the immortal cultivators from Middle Earth were obviously much stronger than the local scattered cultivators, so their net worth was also more abundant, and the stalls would sell a lot of good things that were rare in the southwest.

For example, this kind of blank rune paper is specially used to draw sigils.

It is made of demon beast fur and spirit grass, which can carry more powerful mana and runes, and is used to make talismans, which is more powerful and has a higher success rate.

There is also a unique dansha made from monster materials, and a rune pen specially used to draw runes.

These are things that are hard to come by in the mundane.

But in the world of Middle-earth Immortal Cultivation, these are very basic cultivation materials that can be bought in any store.

These Middle-earth immortal cultivators brought things over just to make a difference, so the price was more expensive than Middle-earth.

Of course, considering the limited strength of the local scattered cultivation here, the price will not be too outrageous.

Su Chen only spent one spirit stone to buy three dozen blank rune papers, and spent two more spirit stones to buy a dansha and an ordinary rune pen.

Using these things to draw true spirit runes has a higher success rate, and you can also draw those runes that are rubbed from the wind and thunder seals into usable runes.

"Daoist friends take a look again, although there are no top-level treasures in my stall, it is better in all aspects. Whether it's a talisman, an elixir, a refiner, or something else, as long as you want, I've got it here. ”

The stall owner was a chubby young man, in his twenties, and his cultivation was about the fourth layer of Qi refining.

This can be regarded as a supreme genius in the southwest land, but in the middle earth immortal cultivation realm, it can only be regarded as average.

This person seems to be specialized in the business of scalping, so there are a lot of basic materials needed for various kinds of cultivation on the stall, not to mention the total, there are quite a few of them.

However, ordinary casual cultivators rarely have the ability to buy these materials, and most of them still prefer those things that can directly increase their cultivation strength.

He saw that Su Chen's shot was quite generous, so he continued to introduce.

"These things are all exchanged by me from the sect with meritorious deeds, and the quality is absolutely guaranteed, so I came here specifically to make hard money and make small profits but quick turnover. Daoyou take a look again, just say what you need, and give you a preferential price when the time comes. ”

"Daoyou is from the Immortal Sect?"

Su Chen was a little surprised.

The little fat man smiled shyly, and said with a little pride: "No, it's the outer disciple of the Yunyang Sect of Middle Earth. I think that Daoist friends have accumulated a lot of money, buy more materials from me, go back and improve your strength, maybe in the future Immortal Ascension Ceremony can be a blockbuster, and then we may be brothers in the same sect......"

I have to say, this little fat man is quite good at talking.

It is worthy of being a scalping businessman.

"I have low qualifications, and I have wasted too much time in the mundane, and I don't have much life, so I'm afraid it will be difficult to be favored by the Xianmen."

Su Chen smiled bitterly and sighed.

Seeing that the fat man was still enthusiastic, he said, "I still need some alchemy medicinal materials, I don't know if you have them here." ”

As he spoke, he reported the few flavors of medicinal herbs he was missing.

When the little fat man heard this, he was a little surprised: "I can't imagine that in addition to being able to draw talismans, Daoist friends are also proficient in alchemy?" ”

"Ordinary cultivation is difficult, and you can only rely on these means."

"I see. These are some low-grade alchemy medicinal materials, of course I have them here, and there are quite a few of them. ”

The little fat man said, took out a storage bag from his arms, handed it over, Su Chen used his divine mind to probe, and it was indeed the materials he needed.

These things, together with the elixir he obtained from the medicine garden, can refine a kind of Gathering Spirit Pill, the effect is better than the Qi Nourishing Pill, and it is most suitable for cultivating above the sixth level of Qi refining.

"How many spirit stones are there in these materials?"

"Hehe, I said that I would give you a discount, make up the whole thing, and you can give a total of thirty spirit stones!"

Thirty spirit stones?

When Su Chen heard this, he almost didn't scold his mother.

It's also too expensive!

The rune paper materials he bought just now only add up to three spirit stones, and although there are a lot of these medicinal materials, they are definitely not a rare thing, and they actually cost thirty spirit stones.

Seeing his abnormal expression, the little fat man hurriedly explained: "Don't get me wrong, I didn't cheat you." This material that can refine the elixir is a sought-after item even in Middle-earth. After all, it can be directly used to improve one's own cultivation, and things like talismans and seals are external means after all, so the value varies greatly......"

Hearing him say this, Su Chen's expression eased a little.

Truly.

Even if the Middle Earth is full of spiritual energy, cultivation is still inseparable from the assistance of pills, so these materials that can refine spirit pills are even more valuable.

In contrast, the sigil is a foreign object after all.

The finished talisman seal may be worth a lot of money, but there are fewer people who need the talisman materials, and the price is naturally very different.

"But thirty spirit stones, it's too much, I can't take it out as soon as I don't practice."

Su Chen shook his head.

This price is not low, even if he has it, it is impossible for him to take it out, otherwise he will definitely be treated as a fat sheep and thus be targeted.

"Hey, I also know that your spiritual energy in the southwest is thin, and it is not easy to cultivate, but I am not deliberately embarrassed. It's just that these materials, I also relied on the merits of the sect in exchange, and no matter how little I have, I will lose money. ”

The little fat man shook his head.

Then he thought about it, and said: "Since Daoyou is proficient in the art of alchemy, if there is any pill on his body, he can also use it as a spirit stone." After all, I also have to cultivate, and making money is not to buy pills to enhance my strength. ”

"Pills? There are a few. ”

Su Chen thought for a while, took out a bottle of Qi Nourishing Pill from his arms, and handed it over.

The little fat man opened the porcelain vase, sniffed it, and then his eyes lit up.

"Daoyou's alchemy technique is very clever, and it can actually smelt impurities clean, and the purity is very high."

The little fat man was a little surprised.

How did he know that Su Chen's elixirs were all refined with pure yang fire, and they were naturally purer than those refined by ordinary people.

"This bottle of Qi Nourishing Pill, ten, I'll count five spirit stones for you. Do you still have anything on you? ”

"That's all there is to it."

Su Chen shook his head, revealing a somewhat painful expression.

Of course, he still has a lot of Qi Nourishing Pills, because they are all refined from materials that can be bought in the mundane, so he has a lot of reserves.

But he can't take it out all at once, otherwise he will be targeted, and it will be a lot of trouble at that time.

So in the end, he only took out a bottle of Qi Nourishing Pill, plus the last ten spirit stones he left, as if he was scraping together, and finally only bought half of the materials.

"That's all I have. Buy this half of the materials first, and when I go back, if I can refine them into pills, I will buy the rest from you. ”

Su Chen said.

He pointed to a book with a blue cover next to him and said, "This book "Strange Tales of Middle Earth", can you give it to me as an add-on?" ”

The book "Strange Tales of Middle-earth" is a miscellaneous book, which introduces and records some customs and customs of Middle-earth, which does not have much effect, and is used to sell to local casual cultivation and attract attention.

This kind of thing, basically every Middle-earth monk will have one or two copies on his stall, and the price is not expensive.

The little fat man was also counting on Su Chen to come to him to trade next time, so he was also very generous and gave this thing away.

"Fellow Daoist, my name is Du Zhong, and during this period of time, Xiandao will set up a stall here. Next time, if you still want to trade, come to me directly here, and I guarantee that you will be satisfied. ”

"Okay, thank you."

After the transaction was completed, Su Chen didn't delay anymore and got up and left directly.

He first walked into an alley to make sure that no one was following him, and then he performed a thousand illusions and reverted to the image of a black robe and white hair.

Then he walked out of the alley and returned to the market.

I found another stall and exchanged three Qi Nourishing Pills to buy a copy of "Detailed Explanation of Primary Refining", planning to go back and study it, and then use it to refine the skin of the ink snake.

After doing these.

Su Chen had gained a lot and was about to leave Fang City.

At this time, a voice suddenly came from the attic next to it.

"Tianmai Daoist, please go upstairs and talk about it."

When Su Chen heard this, he looked up, just in time to see the window pushed open, and an old man was looking at him with a smile.

It was Han Zongyuan, who had a relationship with Tianmai Mountain at the beginning.

This guy has indeed arrived at Penglai Immortal Island.

Su Chen and he also have some friendship, and now that they meet, they didn't refuse his invitation, nodded, and turned around and walked upstairs.

As soon as he walked to the door, Su Chen sensed through his divine thoughts that in addition to Han Zongyuan, there were actually five or six different auras inside, and their strength was not weak, at least they were also existences above the third level of qi refining.

"Why are there so many people, will there be danger?"

Su Chen frowned slightly, and subconsciously stopped.

At this time, the door was pushed open, Han Zongyuan had already walked out with a smile and greeted him in person, and the people in the room did not deliberately hide their tracks, it didn't seem like an ambush.
