Chapter 438: Decision
This is a completely underground world, there is not much sunlight here, and it is always necessary to walk a long distance before you see some light shining through the cracks in the earth overhead, and through these faint rays, the natives of the Blood River Realm live day after day.
When he followed Wu Fuling to the Sanqin tribe, Li Mingyang could be said to have thoroughly understood the living conditions of the indigenous people in the Blood River Realm. A little different from what I expected was that these natives living in the underground world were not too different from normal people, except for their pale faces. And during the conversation with Wu Fuling, he also learned that although the breath of blood in the Blood River Realm was very strong, the monks here all used spirit stones to cultivate normally.
I don't know if it's a person who hasn't given up on the Blood River Realm, although there are not many spirit stone veins in the underground world, but they are not too few, they can still support a certain amount of cultivation, but it only supports a certain number of cultivators to cultivate, so in the Blood River Realm, only people with relatively good talents can cultivate, not all people with spiritual roots can, and after learning about this situation, Li Mingyang can only sigh helplessly.
Regarding the overall situation of the Blood River Realm, Li Mingyang has now explored a rough idea, the Blood River Realm began to fall into decay about a thousand years ago, and carefully calculated that it was not long after the Five Senses King left the Blood River Realm, Li Mingyang couldn't guess whether the ruins of the Blood River Realm were related to the arrival and departure of the Five Senses King, but at least now one thing can be determined, that is, the Blood River Realm has indeed come to an end, so now the people in the Blood River Realm are working hard to prepare for the author's self-rescue.
In the Blood River Realm, because there is a certain limit on the number of cultivators, the protection of monks is also very strict, only monks who have reached the strength of the Qingling Realm can fight, and they must first train the cooperation of the battle formation before they can fight. Although the number of cultivators in the Phantom Realm is large, they cannot fight.
Although this makes it impossible to increase the combat power of the human race too much, it can at least ensure that the number of monks killed in battle will be small. The reason for this is also because the Blood Man and Blood Beast rarely actively invade the human inhabitants of the underworld. Although the Blood Man and Blood Beasts are extremely brutal, they only attack living creatures on the ground, and only cause the appearance of Blood People and Blood Beasts when they are particularly close to the Blood River.
Human monks go out to hunt, in fact, to hunt blood beads after the blood people and blood beasts are killed. These blood beads can be refined into elixirs, which can be used for cultivation. For the Blood River Realm cultivators who were relatively scarce in resources, hunting blood beads was also one of the means for them to continue their cultivation hopes.
However, it is precisely because the resources are not evenly distributed at all, although the population of the Daozhì Blood River Realm is large, but among the population of thousands, the number of monks is only one million, and among them, the number of monks who have cultivated above the Qingling Realm is not even less than 100,000. If it is under normal circumstances, tens of millions of people must cultivate at least millions of monks, and among ordinary people, the chance of becoming a monk should be about one percent, after all, a monk is not such an ethereal existence.
Therefore, because of the large population, the number of monks is not very sufficient, but the situation on the ground is very dangerous, the huge blood river basin is basically an insurmountable gap for millions of monks, there are no less than three thousand blood rivers in the blood river basin, all the blood rivers are pregnant with blood people and blood beasts, if there are a large number of monks approaching, even the entire blood river may completely turn into blood and blood beasts to fight, and the most terrifying point is that the blood and blood beasts here will actually cooperate in battle.
Li Mingyang still raised his doubts about this to Wu Fuling, but Wu Fuling could only scratch his head and say, "I don't know why those blood people and blood beasts are born to know the battle formation." ”
"Then why do you know the way of battle formation?" Li Mingyang asked again.
"We, we have to be trained in the way of battle formations since we were young, many of the powerhouses in the Blood River Realm are formation masters, if you want to become a tribal leader in the Blood River Realm, you must be a formation mage, and if you are proficient in battle formations, you can be in charge of larger tribes. After we cultivate to reach the Triple Realm of the Phantom Spirit, we need to undergo training and start the cooperation of the battle array, and when we reach the Pure Spirit Realm, we will basically be proficient in three or five kinds of battle array coordination, and those with better talent may even master seven or eight types, such people can basically become some small leaders."
Wu Fuling explained very seriously, he thought that Li Mingyang just wanted to chat with him, but he didn't expect that Li Mingyang actually underestimated the monks of the Blood River Realm. Listening to Wu Fuling's introduction, Li Mingyang was indeed secretly speechless, and he couldn't help but blame himself.
Whether it is the Tianyuan Realm or the Fengtai Realm, they are all Xuan Realm that is not known how many times stronger than the Blood River Realm, and the monks of the Tianyuan Realm and the Fengtai Realm are all capable of fighting well, but even so, the monks of the two Xuan Realm do not know the battle formation, and the monks of the Tianyuan Realm do not even know how to know the formation, let alone the battle formation, so Li Mingyang subconsciously thought that the monks of the Blood River Realm should not be really good at this way, and it may only be for some reason that there will be such a group of monks who know the battle formation.
As a result, they didn't expect that the Blood River Realm cultivators, who were already in such a situation, would actually regard the battle array training as part of their cultivation, and even many people who did not have the opportunity to obtain cultivation resources would be arranged to conduct battle array training, if they found that their ability in the battle array coordination was good, they would be supplied with spirit stones, and then start cultivating, so it seems that the Blood River Realm monks actually regarded the way of the battle array as a complete cultivation, and their foundation in this regard may be more solid than that of the Central Plains monks. After all, when he was in the Central Plains, the most elite monk team Li Mingyang had ever seen could only understand five types of battle formations, but the most elite monk team here was able to discharge seven or eight different battle formations to fight.
Thinking about it carefully, Li Mingyang was also relieved, the purpose of training the battle formation in the Central Plains was to fight for hegemony, but in the Blood River Realm, the battle formation was not used to fight for hegemony, but to survive. When survival has become a problem, human beings will naturally try their best to do what they can do, and many times the potential needs to be forced out by hard force.
When he sighed at the difficulty of the Blood River Realm cultivators, Li Mingyang also knew why the Blood River Realm monks could still have a place in such a disadvantageous situation, all because of those true ghosts in the extreme north of the Blood River Realm.
In the final analysis, the Blood River Realm is actually a three-legged situation, not that the human race is at an absolute disadvantage, or in fact, the human beings in the Blood River Realm actually love and hate that piece of the Blood River Domain.
It is precisely because there is a blood river basin between it and the Heavenly Burial Ridge, so the real ghosts in the Heavenly Burial Cave cannot directly attack the places where humans live, and the blood people and blood beasts in the Blood River Basin often break out into battles with real ghosts, so that their strength is consumed between them, and the pressure on human survival is much less. But in the end, it is still human beings who survive in such a crack, and it is precisely because of this that all the people in the Blood River Realm will want to leave here.
The underground world of the Blood River Realm was really extraordinarily large, and Li Mingyang followed Wu Fuling for seven days before finally arriving at the Sanqin Tribe. In fact, with such a solid formation preaching environment in the Blood River Realm, there should be a lot of formation mages here, and there may even be fifth-level formation mages who can arrange large teleportation arrays, at least there should still be formation mages who can arrange short-distance teleportation, but there is not even a teleportation array in the Blood River Realm, because the resources here are too few and too few, and everyone would rather walk for ten days and half a month to get to the place they want to go, and it is impossible for them to be willing to use spirit stones to teleport.
It was already late at night when he arrived at the Sanqin tribe, but Wu Fuling insisted on asking to see Qin Zhan. Fortunately, although Wu Fuling's cultivation is not high, he is also a small celebrity in the entire study and reconciliation, after all, he can lead a team of 3,000 people with a low cultivation, and his ability is still quite outstanding.
"Leader Wu, Old Ancestor Qin is already waiting for you inside. The monk who guarded the door said politely to Wu Fuling.
Wu Fuling responded politely, and then said respectfully to Li Mingyang: "Senior, let's go in?"
"Good. Li Mingyang nodded with a smile and walked in.
"Who was that person just now, and our Lord Wu was so polite to him?" As soon as Wu Fuling and Li Mingyang left, one of the guards couldn't help but ask his companion.
"Hmph, it doesn't matter who he is, it's useless to be a senior anyway, could it be that he can help us get out of here?"
"You, you, don't know how to control your broken mouth. The guard said dissatisfiedly, but he didn't refute anything afterward, after all, these monks were actually very worried every day, not knowing when they might lose their lives, and they also dreamed of leaving the Blood River Realm every day, but unfortunately this thing seemed to be difficult to achieve.
Seeing Qin Zhan for the first time, Li Mingyang even almost broke out in a cold sweat, the old man in front of him who looked relatively weak, although he looked very old, and his condition was not very good, but in his eyes, Li Mingyang saw boundless fighting intent, and in Li Mingyang's life, Li Mingyang only saw such a look when he was confronting Qin Zhan, the ancestor of Taihemen, and suddenly a very ridiculous thought appeared in Li Mingyang's mind, is this Qin Zhan the Qin Zhan?
However, Li Mingyang quickly dispelled this idea, and when Qin Zhan stood up, Li Mingyang was stunned to find that the old man in front of him who looked relatively weak was actually a powerhouse of the Xuanling Realm.
Thinking of what Wu Fuling said before, Qin Zhan's current combat power is less than thirty percent of his peak, and he can still have such strength under such circumstances, I really don't know what kind of strong man he was in his heyday.
"Xiao Wu, what's the matter with coming to me so late?" Qin Zhan seems to be really old, and he didn't even see Li Mingyang, he just greeted Wu Fuling with a smile, of course, it was also because Li Mingyang practiced ten reincarnations, and monks were accustomed to judging each other's situation through their breath, and generally people who met Li Mingyang for the first time didn't realize that he was a monk at all, because the breath on his body was neither spiritual power nor Xuanyin power, but the power of Huangquan, but the power of Huangquan was unfamiliar to almost ninety-nine monks.
Although Wu Fuling already knew that Qin Zhan Ancestor was a very kind old man, but when he saw that he actually stood up to greet him, he hurriedly bowed and said, "Ancestor, when I went out hunting, I met a monk from the outside world, and he was from the Xuanyuan Realm. ”
"Xuanyuan Realm!?" Hearing these three words, Qin Zhan's faint old eyes instantly burst out with a radiant look, and Li Mingyang even saw that his eyes seemed to really glow.
"A monk from the Xuanyuan Realm?" Qin Zhan asked again, and then he finally saw Li Mingyang who was following Wu Fuling, and he was even more stunned for a moment, and then the surprise in his eyes became even more: "Cultivating ghost arts?"
Li Mingyang was still secretly studying Qin Zhan, seeing Qin Zhan's old eyes and dizzy eyes, although he could feel the triple strength of the Xuanling Realm on his body, Li Mingyang even suspected that he might just be in vain, and this old guy was completely finished. But as soon as he heard Qin Zhan's last words, Li Mingyang couldn't help but be completely stunned.
When he looked at Qin Zhan again, Li Mingyang also became more cautious. And after Qin Zhan finished saying that, he didn't speak again, but like Li Mingyang, the two of them began to look at each other.
Wu Fuling stood in place and looked left and right, and when he saw that in the end, he could only laugh at himself, bowed to Qin Zhan silently, and slowly retreated, he knew that such a situation was no longer something he could meddle in.
After a long time, Qin Zhan said with emotion: "You are worthy of being a cultivator of the main realm, you can actually cultivate ghost arts, and you can also cultivate to such a realm." ”
"The seniors are even more remarkable. Li Mingyang also said sincerely.
"Don't say these polite words, take the liberty of asking, how did you get here?" Qin Zhan didn't continue to be polite, and asked directly.
Li Mingyang thought about it, and finally said a little vaguely: "A friend of mine gave me a spatial mark, and then they helped me set up a teleportation circle, and I was sent here." ”
"Oh, I'm here to conquer the Xuan Realm. Qin Zhan said thoughtfully, and then smiled: "But I didn't expect to come to such a Xuan Realm, I'm very disappointed." ”
Li Mingyang didn't refute it, but he could also hear that this Qin Zhan seemed to have really been to the Xuanyuan Realm, otherwise it would be impossible to have such a judgment.
Qin Zhan's joke failed to cause any reaction from Li Mingyang, and Qin Zhan was not angry, but for a while, the two of them didn't say a word, and the scene became particularly dull. Li Mingyang seemed to be thinking about something, as if he was going to make a heavy decision. And Qin Zhan's dizzy old eyes just glanced at Li Mingyang, and then he didn't say a word, just waiting for Li Mingyang to speak.
After a long time, Li Mingyang finally coughed lightly, and then said slowly: "I have a way to make your people rush to the Blood River Realm, but I can only let the monk leave. ”
