Chapter 315: Into the Clouds
From the time Zhou Yang entered the Purple Star Pavilion to the time he ransacked the treasures in the store and left, the time lasted no more than one or two hours.
Due to the fact that the Purple Star Pavilion had closed its doors and opened the protective formation before, no one found out that the sky had changed inside.
It wasn't until Zhou Yang Juan Bao left and the Purple Star Pavilion monk who was knocked unconscious by him reported the case that the news spread.
However, at this time, Zhou Yang had already left the Immortal City, and he didn't know where he went, but the Qixia Gate behind the Qixia Immortal City investigated his origin, and he couldn't find his own location, and in the end, this matter could only be resolved in the mutual conflict between the Qixia Gate and the Purple Star Sect.
On the other side, after Zhou Yang left Qixia Immortal City, he went straight to the south to "Cloud and Mist".
After flying like this for more than half a day, he saw the endless sea of fog in front of him from a distance of hundreds of miles.
The clouds and mist of "Yunwuze" are connected to the sky and the sea of clouds as high as thousands of zhang, and the earth is integrated with the earth and the earth and the lake below.
The strange power in the clouds and mist is everywhere even in the earth, rocks and earth, so if the immortal cultivator goes deep into the forbidden area through the earth and water, he will also encounter the same erosion of that force as on the ground.
Separating the cloud and mist area from the outside world is a long river, with the grassy riverside green grassland on one side and the fog area where nothing can be seen clearly in the white expanse on the other.
Regarding the basic situation of "Yunwuze", Zhou Yang had purchased relevant materials from the bookstore as early as in Qixia Immortal City.
According to the records he saw from the data, the internal terrain of "Yunwuze" is mainly swampy waters, so it is called "Ze".
However, due to its vast area, nearly one-tenth of the area inside is a land island, and it is said that there is a thousand-zhang peak in the center of the "Cloud Mistawa", on which there are sixth-order spiritual veins converging.
Whether it is a land island or a swamp in the water, the aura inside is much thicker than that of the outside world, so while many rare elixirs are bred inside, there are also many powerful demon beasts.
Demon beasts are originally physically strong, and their ability to adapt to harsh environments is also stronger than that of human monks, and these demon beasts living in the "cloud and mist ze" have long been adapted to the strange power in the fog because they were born in it since they were children, or because they have lived in it for many years.
Coupled with the suppression of the monk's divine consciousness by the fog, as well as the restrictions of the environment, the advantage of low- and middle-level immortal cultivators in the face of demon beasts of the same level will be weakened a lot in the "Cloud Mist".
Therefore, under normal circumstances, immortal cultivators below the Purple Mansion stage would enter the "Cloud Mist Ze" to explore and hunt for treasures, and they would enter in a team, and few people dared to enter it alone.
Only the Purple Mansion Stage Monks and Jindan Stage Monks dared to enter it alone, and go deep into the places where those low-level monks could not reach, looking for rare spiritual objects that were rarely seen in the outside world.
Zhou Yang didn't have any specific goal when he entered the "Cloud Mist", he just wanted to go in and have a look, and hit the chance.
It's good to be able to get something out of it.
is that there is nothing to gain, at least when he writes his autobiography in the future, he can also add a certain year and month to Liuyun Continent to visit the forbidden land of the immortal cultivation realm "Yunwuze".
Therefore, after stopping for a moment on the periphery of the fog area, he drove the "Phantom Cloud Boat" into the vast white fog.
As soon as the "Phantom Cloud Boat" entered the white mist, Zhou Yang felt his heart sink, as if he was in the spirit stone mine, his divine sense was greatly suppressed, and at the same time, the visual distance was instantly reduced to less than ten zhang.
You must know that in the outside world, his divine sense is fully open, he can explore a range of more than 20 miles, and his eyesight is enough to see a bee more than 10 miles away!
However, in the "Cloud Mist", this range was directly compressed by nearly seventy percent, and he could only detect a range of less than six miles, which was equivalent to directly suppressing his divine sense to the level of a monk in the late stage of foundation building.
His divine consciousness, which was equivalent to the eighth or ninth layer of the Purple Mansion, had been suppressed so badly, one could imagine how severely those foundation building period cultivators and even Qi cultivation period cultivators had been suppressed in it.
At this time, he realized that the information said that the ninth-level cultivator of Qi cultivation could not leave his body more than ten zhang in the "Cloud Mist", and there was absolutely no exaggeration!
"This is just after entering the outer area, the suppression is so great, and according to the information, every time you go deep into the outer area, the power of this suppression will increase by several percent, no wonder it is said that only the Yuan Infant Stage Cultivator can really enter the depths of the core!"
Zhou Yang's brows were furrowed, and his eyes were full of surprise.
Although there are different opinions about the origin of "Yunwuze", the most widely spread and most believable explanation is that this is the place where a certain great supernatural monk practiced in ancient times, and the white mist here is the formation forbidden by the great supernatural monk in order not to disturb his cultivation and hide the cultivation cave.
Zhou Yang originally didn't agree with this statement, because the area of the "Cloud Mist" was too large, so big that even if it was a seventh-order formation that the legend didn't know whether it existed or not, it was unlikely to cover such a large area.
You must know that even if it is a sixth-order high-grade formation, it can cover the affected area, and at most it is only about 10,000 miles.
And the "cloud and mist" is as wide as two or three hundred thousand miles!
In addition to the severe restriction of the power of divine consciousness, Zhou Yang also felt the erosion of the physical body by the strange power in the mist.
However, because he was a Purple Mansion Monk, and because his body had been tempered by the "Qianyang Immortal Light" all year round, it was much stronger than that of a normal Purple Mansion Monk, and he found out after carefully feeling it.
If the strange power in the mist had maintained its current erosion rate, he would not have to worry about this problem for at least three months, which would be twice as high as the thirty or forty days of the Purple Mansion Stage cultivators mentioned in the data!
This discovery made him very happy, and then he couldn't help but murmur: "By the way, [Qianyang Immortal Light] can remove erysipelas, I don't know if it has any effect on the strange power in this mist?"
thought so, but Zhou Yang didn't do it right away.
There are two reasons, one is that he has just entered the "Cloud Mist", and the strange erosion power in the mist has too little impact on his body, and at this time, even if the erosion power is removed through the "Qianyang Immortal Light", he can't make any conclusions.
The second is naturally that the place he is in at this time is too close to the outside world, and the vision of the "Qianyang Immortal Light" is obvious after it is cast, for fear that someone will discover his biggest secret.
So the flying boat moved under his feet, and quickly flew into the depths of the vast white mist.
Because the Qi cultivation period cultivators could only stay in the "Cloud Mist" for three days at most, they could only move in the outer two or three thousand miles deep area, and if they went deeper, it was easy to have no return.
And because the monks in the foundation building period can fly with swords and stay in it for half a month, the range of activities is much larger.
If you are brave enough, it is not impossible to go deep into it for 50,000 or 60,000 miles.
Of course, for the sake of safety, ninety percent of the foundation building monks will not go deeper than 30,000 li, and generally operate in the range of 10,000 to 30,000 li.
The area where the monks of the Purple Mansion period were active was usually between 30,000 and 80,000 miles.
Zhou Yang went all the way into it, thanks to the powerful transfiguration hidden magic power of the "Phantom Cloud Boat", he had not been discovered by any demon beast in the first 20,000 miles, so naturally he did not need to stay.
However, after entering the depths of 20,000 miles, because of the increase in the number of third-order demon beasts, some demon beasts with sensitive perception discovered his whereabouts.
These demon beasts who have lived in the "Cloud Mist" for a long time, I don't know if it is because they have been affected by the corrosive power of the fog for a long time, and their tempers are very irritable and bloodthirsty, and they basically do not back down when they encounter human monks.
Even if the aura emanating from Zhou Yang's body was obviously a great realm higher than his own, those third-order demon beasts would usually roar and attack him after discovering his whereabouts.
Zhou Yang naturally didn't have much effort to solve these blind demon beasts, but the speed couldn't help but slow down a lot.
He was also afraid that frequent battles would attract the prying eyes of fourth-order demon beasts or other high-level cultivators.
You must know that it is not only the demon beasts that are dangerous in this "cloud and mist ze", sometimes the immortal cultivators inside are much more dangerous than the demon beasts.
The unique environment here allows the Treasure Hunter to perfectly cover up the traces and prevent anyone from discovering that it was their own hands.
Therefore, monks who explore and hunt for treasures in the "Cloud and Mist Ze" will generally try to avoid encountering other immortal cultivators, and it is really inevitable that they will encounter them, and the side with lower strength will also choose to flee immediately.
Zhou Yang has no intention of harming others, but he can't help but have the heart of guarding against others.
In this way, it was not until nearly a day had passed that he went deep into the 50,000-li area of the "Cloud Mist".
At a depth of 50,000 miles in the fog area, Zhou Yang's divine sense coverage has been compressed to three or four miles.
At this depth, when he flies, he flies blindly, and he doesn't dare to be too fast at all, for fear that if he is too fast, he will directly collide with a certain fourth-order demon beast or a certain Purple Mansion stage monk, or even a fifth-order demon beast and a Jindan stage monk!
So Zhou Yang decisively stopped moving forward and began to go around the fog area to find a place to settle down and look for spiritual objects.
The land in the "cloud and mist sawa" is not contiguous like a single group, but exists separately like an island in the sea.
And it's not just on land that spiritual creatures grow, there are also many aquatic elixirs growing on or under the water.
Even the "cloud beads" in the "Three Uniques of Clouds and Mist" may condense on some plants on the water surface.
In short, if you want to find treasures in the "clouds", it really depends on luck.
Zhou Yang's luck has always been okay, coupled with the fact that his divine sense is naturally stronger than that of a cultivator of the same level, when he lowered his altitude to look for a land where he could settle down, it only took less than three days to find seven or eight third-order elixirs one after another.
As for the elixir below the third order, Zhou Yang would not look at it at all, and when he reached his current cultivation, what was the use of picking that low-level elixir?
In this way, after entering the fifth day of the cloud and mist ze, Zhou Yang, who was looking for spiritual objects and land, suddenly heard a terrifying beast roar full of anger from the depths of the fog in front of him.
This made him look stunned, and then his eyes flickered as he looked in the direction where the beast's roar came and groaned.
