Spring and autumn alternate, four o'clock circulation.

Time flies, and eighteen years have passed in a blink of an eye.

East China Sea.

A vast blue ocean.

There was a salty smell in the breeze.

The sea was slightly rippling, and seagulls were crossing the sky from time to time.

The wind is high and the waves are strong, the waves are rough under the sea, and even countless huge objects are faintly emerging.

A fleet of ships is riding the wind and waves, sailing on the boundless sea.

It was the fleet that had returned from the Golden Passage.

Ordinary monks travel to the Outlands and need to cross the borderline.

But in this process, due to the conflict between the laws of the two domains, it is easy to cause the annihilation of the monk or the object itself.

The monk has the blessing of the Great Array that covers the heavens and can protect himself, but the items are different, under normal circumstances, the monks of the Immortal Alliance bring back from the outer realms, usually containing the origin of the world (such as aura).

But if the transcendent things in the outer realm can be transported back to their own heaven and earth, they will be baptized by the laws of their own heaven and earth.

Under the refinement of the law of the two domains, there will be a certain probability that it will transform into rare strange things in the world, such as the ten thousand years of empty blue, the Xuanqi spirit bead, the two domains of the incense and other things that are difficult to be born in heaven and earth.

In fact, it is similar to a gambling stone, but the explosion rate is not low, and the harvest is amazing, which has attracted the coveted of countless monks, even the Yuanying Zhenjun of the Immortal Alliance is also moved.

However, the Great Array only protects people and does not protect things, causing many things in the outer regions to disappear in the process of shuttling.

In order to ensure its survival, the Immortal Alliance's Transformation God Tianzun directly took action, using the fragments of a small world floating on the ruins as a passage medium, spanning the two domains, so that the things in the outer regions and the materials in the inner regions were saved from destruction between the transportation and exchange.

And this passage is known as the golden route of the East China and the two regions at home and abroad.

Every day, I don't know how many spirit boats go to unknown foreign lands along this route, transport a large number of heavenly and earthly treasures, rare and exotic objects, and then circulate them between the ten thousand islands in the East China Sea, resulting in the foundation of today's East China Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm, even after millions of years of war, it is still prosperous.

And its massive resources have naturally ushered in countless peeps and coveting.

The huge kraken, the races that inhabit the ocean, the demon cultivators who practice evil spells, the otherworldly evil gods located in the golden waterways of the outer regions, and the blood cultivators who put on their skins and attack the caravans......

Like hungry wolves, they set their sights on the fleets that were going back and forth between the inner and outer regions, and thus set off a bloody battle, forming a dark red background under the prosperous exterior.

The battle between the Kraken and the monks, and the battle between the merchants and the blood cultivators, is the theme of eternal opposition in the ocean voyage of mankind in this Age of Discovery.

And the era thus formed is called the Age of Discovery!

Based on the battle of aura, the era of competition for resources in the outer realm!

Countless monks flock to the oceans to brave hurricanes, tsunamis, trolls, pirates, and more to explore the Outlands.

Island after island and even mainland China were discovered, more and more ocean-going ships were built, and the quality and quantity of monks continued to improve.

This is the worst of times, the terrifying seas are like merciless beasts, devouring the young lives of the people, the conquest of the outer lands, the plundering of resources, full of colonization and evil.

But it's also the best of times, with courage and a little subtle luck, wealth and anything else can be found in the sea!

This era is the grave of the cowardly, the stage of the brave!

"Today, it's really a good day!"

Chen Hao was in his teens, naked with his upper body and wearing a pair of shorts, looking at the sky in the distance, and couldn't help but show an excited smile on his face.

As a person who was born on the sea, followed his father, and helped the major Lingdao chambers of commerce to transport resources, he was naturally extremely sensitive to the weather at sea, and he just sniffed the sea breeze and knew that today was a cloudless and good weather.

"Great! At this rate, it won't take a few days to successfully reach the next Lingdao port and complete this dart delivery mission! ”

"And after this trip, the master can gather enough resources, redeem the required resources, and then start the path of cultivation!"

Thinking of this, Chen Hao's face was uncontrollable with excitement.

His spiritual root attributes are three kinds: water, fire, and earth, which is considered an ordinary qualification in the immortal cultivation world.

However, when his father was young, he had obtained a superior exercise, which could balance the spiritual roots of the three attributes of water, fire, and earth, and cultivated with his method, and when he was promoted to build a foundation, he kneaded the three to form the Dao Foundation [Three Yuan Thunder].

Not only can you take your cultivation qualifications to the next level, but you can also have the power to control the thunder, and you will achieve Jindan in the future, if you don't lose your cultivation, at least it will be a middle grade.

However, the requirements for refining qi are very harsh, requiring a special spiritual element element magnetic spirit iron, quenched with essence blood, injected with attributeless spiritual energy, and then in the place where the geomagnetic energy surges, it takes seven seven and forty-nine days to obtain a wisp of three-element magnetic qi and step into the threshold of cultivation.

Because of the harsh requirements for resources, he has not been promoted.

However, if you can complete this trip, you will be able to gather all your things and start the path of cultivation!

And just when Chen Hao was excitedly imagining the future, a tattered wooden board flew directly from a distance and smashed accurately on his head.

"Ahh Who dares to sneak attack the master! ”

The sudden blow made Chen Hao scream in pain, and he looked back angrily, but his face suddenly froze, and then he shouted:

"It's you, old witch!"

"What did you say?!" A female cultivator who was quite handsome, but behaved quite strongly, was stunned at first when she heard this, and then became furious, "You kid ate the heart of a bear and a leopard, don't you dare to say that about your sister!" ”

"What's not an old witch?!" Chen Hao, who was originally looking at Chen Xi's angry face and was a little afraid of subconsciously hiding back, didn't know where he got the courage, he stiffened his neck and shouted, "When you fight, you stab people in chrysanthemums, and your moves are so ruthless, you want to be shameless!" ”

"You know what? It's called attacking its weakness! ”

"What is attacking its weakness, I think you are really hungry, and you will be stabbed when you see a man!"

"Okay, okay, I'm going to educate you today, what is respecting elders!"

"Fight, fight, why are you taking off my pants?! Damn, don't cut it......"

For a moment, the screams resounded throughout the boat.

The bottom of the cabin.

"Alas, these two little guys really don't let me live in peace."

A middle-aged monk wearing a spirit armor couldn't help but sigh softly when he heard this familiar voice.

"It is said that the tiger father has no dogs, and the two children of the captain are not only talented, but also quite lively and active, and they will be expected to enter the fairy gate in the future!"

The deputy on the side laughed.

Although he knew that it was just flattery, the captain smiled and showed a hint of pride.

But then, his gaze quickly became solemn and he looked ahead.

Ahead, is the bottom of the cabin.

At this moment, an object has been placed.

The dense rune prohibition shrouded, and between the interweaving of countless spiritual lights, an incomparably mysterious and complex formation was formed, sealing this thing.

There was a terrifying aura on it, which made even the captain who had already condensed Doji feel a sense of suffocation.

And in the formation, there is something blocked.

It was a pale, bone-like tree.

There was a corpse-like figure hanging upside down on the tree, leaning motionless on the white bone tree, the thick darkness shrouded around it, exuding a terrifying dead silence aura, even if it was through the formation, it couldn't help but make people feel a sense of panic.

And looking at its style, it doesn't seem to belong to the East China Sea, but more like something from the outside world.

"I don't understand, what do those big people in the immortal sect want this thing for, isn't this a statue of an evil god in the outer lands?" The deputy couldn't help but be puzzled, "And if I'm not mistaken, in the current foreign conquest, it seems that the only one that involves the evil gods is the Lingyuan Island near our sea area, which has the Lingyuan Island where the Yuanying Venerable is located, and the continent that is being conquered, right?" ”

Although this realm is the method of cultivating immortals by taking the spiritual root, in the ruins and the outer regions, among the world fragments left by the ancient monks who conquered the heavens, there are many worlds where gods exist, and they have been going back and forth between the two domains for many years, and they naturally know the existence of evil gods.

"We just need to send it, and we don't have to worry about the superfluous." The captain shook his head, stopping the deputy's conjecture, "It's not a good thing to know too much about what we do. ”

Due to the transportation of resources, it is necessary to deal not only with the evil gods and monsters in the outer regions, but also with the kraken blood cultivation in the inner regions, which has very strict requirements for the combat power of the escort.

However, among the ten thousand islands in the East China Sea, the high combat power either stayed in the sect and held the foundation, or was sent to the front line of Wolongguan or the outer continent to fight, and most of the rest were productive monks or disciples with potential, who focused on cultivation and could not spend time on the transportation of resources from the inner and outer regions.

So the corresponding escort fleet was born.

Anything small, invisible, or to be transported through private channels is transported by these escort fleets.

"That being said, it's still too dangerous to transport these evil god statues." Looking at this statue, the deputy looked very worried, and hesitated, "According to the information I heard, the Immortal Sect cultivator on Lingyuan Island who was in charge of conquering that continent can be said to have suffered heavy losses in this eighteen-year-long Blood Moon Year. ”

"Even the Yuanying True Monarch has fallen several under these evil gods, we will not have any problem escorting this statue, right......?"

Speaking of which, the deputy's ugly face was obvious.

Originally, he thought it was just to transport some things from the outer lands, but he didn't expect it to be an evil god statue, and if something went wrong, it would kill the whole ship.

"I have already promised my employer, and the deposit has been collected, but now I regret it, and I really want the other party to talk?" The captain glanced at his deputy and said lightly, "Besides, with the protection of the formation, and coming to the world of our own side, no matter how terrifying this evil god is, is it possible that he can still cross the two domains and project his power down?" ”

"That being said, let's hope nothing happens......" the deputy sighed softly.

Subsequently, he stopped the topic and changed the conversation:

"But then again, Captain, eighteen years ago, the people of the Middle Earth Immortal Alliance came to the East China Sea and founded the East China Sea Xianmen Daoist Academy, recruiting talents from all over the world, among which the outstanding ones can have the right to develop foreign regions, and can also get the funding of the Immortal Gate, this is probably this opportunity for us."

"What chance?"

The captain shook his head and smiled:

"Although I don't know what the current situation is, one thing I do know is that those monks in the upper echelons will definitely not spit out their own benefits for no reason."

"They are a bunch of greedy jackals, even the spirit stones we escort resources are delayed again and again, if it weren't for our strike, they would even give some so-called arrears Yunshu to postpone the transaction, after a few years of delay, the ghost knows if they can get it."

"And now it's giving you power, it's giving you resources, it's giving you the opportunity to conquer the outer lands, and you're going to have the opportunity to be promoted...... Do you think they'll be so generous? It's nothing more than a useful value, and you need consumables. ”

"Aren't we all usual?" The deputy frowned and said, "This world is originally about using each other, if you can take this opportunity to cultivate to the next level, why not?" ”

"You said that it is usual, so why do you give so many resources to explore the outer realm?" Hearing this, the captain sneered, "In my opinion, it is nothing more than one point, that is, the external threat overwhelms the internal harvest, so that they have to find a replacement for the dead ghosts, this so-called outer territory development, is to find someone to go up." ”

"And now in the East China Sea, what can be regarded as an external threat by those immortal sect bigwigs is nothing more than one force - the East China Sea Dragon Palace!"

"Captain, you mean that the two clans are going to have a big war?!" The deputy heard the meaning of this, and his face changed.

Although for the high-level of the Immortal League, this is a fact that everyone knows, but for the low-level cultivators, who are not astute, I am afraid that they will not realize it until the end of the day.

After all, the transfer of personnel, the transportation of resources, and various strategic adjustments are not at all the existence that the low-level monks can perceive.

"Who's going to say for sure?" The captain shook his head and sighed, "So now I just want to take this opportunity to make a lot of money, and then return to Middle-earth with the help of the Shang Alliance's relationship, and let Hao'er Xi'er worship in the Immortal Gate, so that I can be regarded as staying away from this side of the dispute." ”

"After all, for those big people in Xianmen, whether to fight or not is a matter of exchange of interests and face. But for us little people, it's a matter of family ruin. The so-called "whatever the cost" in the mouth of the True Monarch of the Immortal Alliance refers to us......"

Speaking of this, the deputy's face changed again and again, and finally a touch of frustration and powerlessness appeared.

There was a sudden silence.

Even if they guessed, so what?

The signs of war have begun to faintly appear, and in the era of rising turmoil, these little people, no matter how much calculation, may not be able to stand alone.

"Captain! Captain! ”

At this moment, all of a sudden, there was a commotion outside the cabin, and then, a monk directly opened the formation prohibition and entered the bottom of the cabin.

"Huh? What happened? ”

The captain frowned when he saw this, and asked rhetorically.

"Boat, captain, we've fished a man from under the sea!" The monk panted.

"What's so strange about catching just one person?"

"But, but the other party is a foundation building monk!"

"Monk Tsukiki?!" When the captain heard this word, his face instantly became solemn.

On the entire ship, he and his deputy arrived at the base level, and now an outsider of the same level suddenly appeared, how could he not pay attention?

"Let's go, take me to see it!"

"Yes, yes!"

Soon, several people disappeared to the bottom of the cabin.

However, they did not see it when they left.

Just as the monk broke into the bottom of the cabin to report, the corpse, shrouded in darkness, its shriveled head, somehow turned slightly sideways, as if looking at something.

Suddenly, the brilliant aura of the sealing formation flickered.
