Half a month later.

Arowana Island.

Three rays of light came together and landed in the Evergreen Pavilion.

Not long after, a cyan rainbow also flew and landed on the top floor, revealing Fang Xi's figure.

He glanced at Liu Sanqi, Zhong Hongyu, and Ruan Xingling, and then smiled: "I heard that there was an accident on the Emerald Island before, and I was still a little worried, but now that I see the three of them returning safely, my heart can finally let go......"

"Thanks to Liu Daoyou's help, otherwise I may not be able to support ....... back"

Ruan Xingling smiled bitterly, and an abnormal flush suddenly appeared on her face.

"You're hurt?"

With a flash of blue light, Fang Xi came to Ruan Xingling's side, and a blue-yellow halo erupted from the palm of one hand, grabbing Ruan Xingling's wrist.

The effect of the healing secret technique recorded in the 'Kurong Jue' was extraordinary, and after just a moment's effort, Ruan Xingling opened his eyes and smiled slightly: "Thank you Brother Fang for your help, I'm fine.......

"It's weird...."

Fang Xi withdrew his palm, looked at Ruan Xingling, and then looked at Zhong Hongyu: "This time the Emerald Island Ruins, Hongyu is fine, but you are seriously injured, which really surprises me a little......

Zhong Hongyu and Ruan Xingling both practice the same exercise, but Ruan Xingling is already a monk in the middle stage of foundation building, and the prestige of the fighting method is shocking to the country.

As a result, the two went to the Emerald Island at the same time, but Ruan Xingling was seriously injured, and Zhong Hongyu seemed to be fine.

"Thanks to Sister Ruan protecting me on the Emerald Island, I can be safe and sound......."

Zhong Hongyu hurriedly explained.

At this time, Fang Xi knew that along with the birth of the Netherworld Vein, there were many ghost things that refined qi and built the base level.

At that time, many monks were fighting on their own, and the scene was extremely chaotic, thanks to Ruan Xingling's protection, otherwise this woman might not really be able to escape.

"I see......"

Fang Xi nodded, feeling that Ruan Xingling seemed to regard Zhong Hongyu as a personal disciple.

"Actually...... If it's just those ghosts, I'm sure I can get out of it and not be so heavy

Hurt ......"

After Ruan Xingling pondered for a while, she said something again: "I was on the Emerald Island before, and when I saw the two Jiedan Ancestors breaking the ban, I felt a little strange...... Later, it was almost certain that it was a ploy... It is inseparable from a female cultivator present. That female cultivator definitely has an enmity with the Xuantian Sect, and she cultivates the Demon Dao Exercises! ”

A look of hatred appeared on her face: "If I hadn't caught up with that woman and lost some of my vitality, I wouldn't have been seriously injured by the ghosts later......"

"Oh?"

Fang Xi inquired carefully, only to know that there was also a mysterious female Zhuji at that time, and it seemed that she was trying to sneak attack Zhang Laozu of Xuantian Sect.

Even though he didn't succeed, he escaped smoothly, and even made Zhang Laozu fall into the predicament of being besieged by Jindan Ghost Cultivator, and the means were very ingenious and clever.

"That female demon's cultivation is similar to mine, but her cultivation is quite powerful, not only has a divine sense attack method, but also has a body method, like a dream....... Disappear without a trace! ”

Xingling elaborated, "I suspect that the female demon cultivator may have a 'phantom spirit root'.... Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to hide my consciousness with a false body. ”

"Phantom Root?"

Liu Sanqi spoke: "I've heard of this kind of qualification, it is said that those who have this spiritual root are quite helpful for cultivating illusions......."

'What kind of spiritual root is Situ Qingqing? ’

Fang Xi recalled in his heart, and immediately shook his head, how did he know about this kind of secret?

However, judging from the methods of the female demon cultivator, it is indeed the 'Five Extremes Yuan Demon Skill', and it has a grudge against Xuantian Sect, so it is very likely that Situ Qingqing is the one.

Maybe Ruan Xingling also found out something, so she desperately chased this woman, but instead caused herself to be seriously injured.

After all, Ruan Xingling has a deep blood feud with the Situ family's demon cultivators, and they are simply endless.

And from Ruan Xingling and Zhong Hongyu's mouths, Fang Xi finally learned the details of the situation.

This kind of first-hand information is much more accurate than the false rumors of outside monks.

"The number of Jindan ghost cultivators in the Emerald Island is actually more than three..... Unless the four major forces unite, it will be difficult to clean up....."

After hearing this, Fang Xi couldn't help muttering.

"Not only that, the core area has long been infected by the Netherworld Ghost Qi, even if there is any knot elixir spirit object, I am afraid that it will have already been defiled......

Ruan Xingling replied with a wry smile: "Without the temptation of the knotted pill spirit object, it is impossible for the Jindan Sect to risk the fall of the ancestor and start a war with the ghost cultivators, or they will give up our Wandao Lake and let the Wandao Lake group cultivators fend for themselves."

......"

"Buffer zone? It's a real possibility......"

Fang Xi was thoughtful.

If it is a third-order demon king, at least if you kill it, you can still get the inner dan, but most of the ghost cultivators of the knot pill will turn into nothingness, which can be said to be a loss to the extreme.

In addition, there is no oil and water left in the relics of the Nine Leaves Sect, what choice should be made, as long as it is a rational immortal cultivator, he can make a choice.

"It seems that Wandao Lake in the future will be suffering from ghost cultivation......"

Fang Xi said: "Fortunately, the defensive array on this island is strong enough, and it should be able to last for a while...... If a few fellow Daoists are worried that their dojo is not safe enough, they can take refuge with me for the time being......"

"Thank you, Owner, for your kindness."

Liu Sanqi arched his hand, but replied with a wry smile: "I still want to go back to Golden Turtle Island, there is still the elixir I worked hard to cultivate, and the ..... that cannot be transplanted easily"

"I'm also going back to Maple Island..... Generally speaking, the ghost cultivator will not leave the lair, and I can deal with ordinary ghosts. ”

Ruan Xingling thought about it, and finally replied as well.

"In that case, I won't force it......"

When Fang Xi heard this, he could only sigh and go with them.

The foundation building monk is not a child, but a famous character in the immortal cultivation world, since they have said so, they must have a certain degree of certainty in dealing with ghost disasters.

The exploration boom of the ancient ruins on the Emerald Island has finally come to an end.

Not only has a large number of famous foundation building cultivators fallen, but even the small Qi refining cultivators who are greedy for cheap have died a lot.

And after discovering the difficulty of the Netherworld Leyline and the ghost cultivation, the various forces also made the decision to evacuate.

Bai Ze Immortal City was the first to run!

Before leaving, Yuan Feihong also came to visit Fang Xi.

At this time, the other party was already in the late stage of foundation building.

Fang Xi's 'Chong Yuan Dan' back then seemed to have really helped a lot.

And after all the forces withdrew, Lingkong Fang City suddenly became much more depressed, Fang Xi didn't even want to care about it, and after sucking away most of the spirit stones and materials, he directly threw them to Yan Dongqing.

After the calculation, through this 'Emerald Island Ruins Fever', several of them have made a lot of money by building the foundation, and the spirit stones alone have been piled up into a small mountain, not counting all kinds of rare elixirs, spiritual materials, exotic treasures, exercises and secret techniques, and so on......

It's just that the ensuing ghost disaster in Wandao Lake really made the local immortal cultivators suffer a lot.

The ghost cultivators of the Yudan level did not leave the Emerald Island, but they drove some low-level ghosts out to collect the flow of living souls, and there were even examples of breaking through the Spirit Island and slaughtering the monks on the island with mortals.

These ghost creatures are either in groups of three or five, or wandering alone, among them there are even ghosts comparable to Zhuji, ordinary Qi refining cultivators are not opponents, only the second-order spirit island where the Zhuji monks are sitting can be resisted.

This also led to the fact that in Wandao Lake, both monks and mortals, they were concentrating on the four islands of Maple Leaf, Arowana, Golden Turtle, and Lingkong.

There are even more monks and mortals who want to come to Arowana Island to avoid trouble, after all, Fang Xi is known as the 'First Monk of Wandao Lake' to the outside world, and he is still relatively golden.

Because it was just some Qi refining cultivators and mortals, Fang Xi was not too cold-blooded and ruthless, so he had no choice but to agree to come down and set aside a few areas for them to recuperate.

Moreover, I had to suppress the demon tree every day, so as not to see so much blood food, and instinctively sacrifice them all the blood....

Even so, the entire Wandao Lake area became much more depressed, and Xuantian Sect did not react at all.

It seems that Zhang Laozu did pay an extremely painful price in order to break out of the encirclement.

And there is no doubt that the large area of Wandao Lake was abandoned by Xuantian Sect.

Arowana Island Pier.

One after another, the mortal ships docked, and many mortals came down from above.

These mortals are all descendants of the monks of Wandao Lake, and now they have encountered a ghost disaster, and they are unwilling to flee to Yujun of Yue Kingdom and become real mortals, so they can only choose to follow the monks who took refuge in Arowana Island and enter Arowana Island to live.

"It's finally here... ….”

"Don't be afraid, there will be no ghosts when you get to Arowana Island......"

"Woo, Daddy..... I'm going to find Daddy....."

Fang Xi hid his figure and stood in mid-air, looking at the refugee, but he was also silent.

Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows and looked at the lake not far away.

There, a few spiritual lights flickered, and it was the accompanying Qi Refining Cultivator, who was harnessing the magic weapon to escort it.

Not far away, there was a sudden gust of yin wind, and a ghost mist dozens of zhang long floated in, and there seemed to be a large number of vague shadows in it.

"It's those ghosts, chasing them again!"

The face of an old man who was wielding a flying sword changed greatly: "I just said that you shouldn't transport so many people at once, mortals have too much qi and blood, and it is easy to attract the attention of ghosts....."

"The family is also picking on the door, don't you know how many more 'Qi Talismans' to buy?"

A girl with apricot eyes and peach cheeks next to her was also a little angry.

"Alas...... it's useless to talk more at this time, but fortunately, among these ghosts, there is no second-order, fight with them!"

The old man harnessed the flying sword, which turned into a brilliant white streamer and pierced into the mist.

"Boom!".

The next moment, a strange laughter came out of the mist, and the old man's face changed: "It's not good.... My Ritual Artifact ....."

"These ghosts are powerful, flee quickly, and notify the monks of Arowana Island to come to help!"

The monks fought and retreated, all the way to Arowana Island, while the slightly slower ships were entangled in the gray mist, and immediately a scream was heard, followed by a dead silence....

The ghost mist was not satisfied, and drifted towards the dock of Arowana Island.

At this moment, in the Xuanmu Great Array, there was a black mist

The qi flashed, and it expanded violently, enveloping the ghost mist.

In an instant, the ghostly mist vanished without a trace.

Seeing this scene, the old man and the girl couldn't help but be dumbfounded......
