[Water-Avoiding Golden-eyed Beast] is a very rare beast, this kind of beast is good at gold and water, usually inhabits the island land, and only hunts in the sea when hunting.

This strange beast is a treasure, and its value will not be worse than that of a dragon of the same level, and even better, the [Water-Avoiding Golden Eye Beast] also has a treasure hunting talent, and likes to collect all kinds of treasures to hide in their lair.

And the nest of the [Water-Avoiding Golden-Eyed Beast] is usually located on the high-quality spiritual vein, and the old nest of a fifth-order high-grade [Water-Avoiding Golden-eyed Beast] will definitely not be lower than the fifth-order high-grade spiritual vein.

Knowing this, it is not difficult to understand why Zhou Yang took a fancy to this task of forming a team to find someone to hunt the [Water-Avoiding Golden Eye Beast].

For him, the reward for hunting the [Water-Avoiding Golden-eyed Beast] is not important, what matters is the spiritual vein where the [Water-Avoiding Golden-eyed Beast] is located.

According to the information revealed above the mission, the [Water-Avoiding Golden Eye Beast] is located in the "Tianlan Outer Sea".

As far as Zhou Yang knows, this "Tianlan Outer Sea" was actually the "Inland Sea" of the overseas immortal cultivation world before the "Jiaolong Rebellion" thousands of years ago.

The current name of "Tianlan Outer Sea" was also named by overseas immortal cultivators later to commemorate the top sect "Tianlan Sect" that perished in that war.

Because it belongs to the lost area, although there are still many monks in the overseas immortal cultivation world who will go to the "Tianlan Outer Sea" to adventure, but not many people dare to stay there for a long time to practice, let alone start a sect.

Therefore, if he could really kill the [Water-Avoiding Golden-Eyed Beast], Zhou Yang might not have the opportunity to occupy the spiritual vein where the [Water-Avoiding Golden-Eyed Beast] lair was located afterwards.

He stayed on the task requirement for a moment, remembering the words "Thunderwhale Island" deeply, and then continued to look at the other tasks.

Websitem.

Two days later, Zhou Yang left [Golden Turtle Fang City] against the background of the rising sun and returned to the undersea cave where his daughter Jiang Yufeng temporarily lived.

When he returned to the cave, Jiang Fengxian had not returned, and he waited for nearly half a month before waiting for his return.

Seeing Jiang Fengxian come back safely, he finally put his mind at ease, and couldn't help but smile and asked, "Fengxian, you came back so late, did you have some big gains?"

I didn't think that Jiang Fengxian rolled her eyes angrily and said: "What a big gain, it's been so late, it's not because some blind guys want to have those bad thoughts when they see a female cultivator walking alone, and the concubine has to kill them, and they dare to come back after a long detour!"

She is naturally beautiful and difficult to give up, even if she uses a mask to pretend to be an ordinary woman, she is also a peacock falling among the chickens, and her temperament is very eye-catching.

In addition, as she herself said, a lone female cultivator is always more likely to be targeted than a male cultivator.

When Zhou Yang heard her words, he knew that she must have dealt with all the ends of her hands, so he didn't ask anything, just nodded and said: "This is a mistake I considered, I knew that this overseas immortal cultivation world is even more chaotic than the legend, you and I should act together." ”

"Forget it, act together, you and I have a pair of high-level monk partners, which is even more suspicious, the Royal Dragon Family has hung the portraits of you and me on the wanted list of the Seventy-two Islands Alliance, they are really willing, in order to catch you and me, they even took out the treasures of the sixth-order magic weapon and the sixth-order elixir as a reward!"

Jiang Fengxian shook his head, and talked about being wanted in a rather resentful tone.

Of course she hated it, because the introduction of her on the wanted list was full of smears, and she was said to be a heinous person who betrayed her teacher and mutilated her classmates.

Zhou Yang heard her talk about it, but he smiled coldly and said: "The more they spend their money, the more they have nothing to do with us, this account is to be remembered for them first, and one day they will be asked to return all the capital with interest!"

Jiang Fengxian naturally thought the same thing in her heart, but thinking about the strength of the Royal Dragon Family, she was deflated again.

I have to admit that even if she and Zhou Yang both succeed in getting married, unless both of them can become late-stage Yuan Infant cultivators in the future, it is impossible to shake the behemoth of the Royal Dragon Family.

The more she thought about it, the more depressed she became, she couldn't help but take a deep breath, suppressed this depressed emotion, shook her head slightly, and said, "Forget it, don't talk about this, Zhou Lang, what did you gain from going to [Golden Turtle Fang City]?"

"There is a little bit of a gain, but I don't know if it's feasible. ”

Zhou Yang said, and said the tasks he saw on the task wall, as well as his thoughts.

After listening to his words, Jiang Fengxian groaned for a while, then nodded and said: "The concubine body of that task has also seen it, but the [Water-Avoiding Golden Eye Beast] is an extremely extraordinary beast, I am afraid that it has already been registered in the heart of the demon king over there in the [Tianlan Outer Sea], those people go to hunt this kind of demon beast, and if they succeed, they can leave directly, if we occupy the spiritual vein there, I am afraid it will be easy to use it as a scapegoat!"

"Fengxian, your worries are not unreasonable, but in our current situation, it is impossible to achieve the goal without taking any risks, I think this matter is still worth trying, at least you can contact the monk who issued the task first, and learn some more detailed information from him. ”

Zhou Yang first nodded, affirming Jiang Fengxian's concern, and then shook his head again and expressed his opinion.

What he said also made sense, Jiang Fengxian listened to his words, hesitated for a moment, but nodded and said, "Okay, then try." ”

So, after the two discussed, they explained the situation to their daughter Jiang Yufeng, who was in retreat and studying alchemy in the cave, and then rushed to the so-called Thunder Whale Island with the imperial envoy [Fish Dragon Suo].

This Thunder Whale Island and Golden Turtle Island are separated by seven or eight hundred thousand miles, and it is also an important member of the Seventy-two Islands Alliance of the Overseas Immortal Cultivation Realm.

The monks who manage Thunder Whale Island are a few disciples of the Yuan Infant Monk, and these people don't seem to have much business talent, so that the conditions of Thunder Whale Island are obviously much better than that of Golden Turtle Island, but the business of the Fang Market on the island has not been very good.

And the monk who issued the mission was one of the disciples of the Yuan Infant Monk.

After Zhou Yang and Jiang Fengxian's imperial envoy [Fish Dragon Shuttle] rushed to the sea near Thunder Whale Island, Zhou Yang asked Jiang Fengxian to stay in the [Fish Dragon Shuttle], hide at the bottom of the sea and wait, and by himself through the [Illusory Orb] disguise into a Jindan fifth-layer monk and rushed to Thunder Whale Island to meet the monk who issued the mission.

The [Phantom Orb] is indeed a very practical auxiliary magic weapon, the refining material of this thing is a pearl produced by a sea beast [Mirage], called [Mirage Bead], its effect is similar to the [Phantom Cloak] that Zhou Yang once borrowed through the Yuqing Dao Sect in the Liuyun Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm, not only can transform the appearance so that the Jindan period monks are difficult to recognize, but also can simulate and change the monk's breath.

Zhou Yang also had this thing in his hand, so he dared to venture into close contact with other Jindan monks.

He went to Thunder Whale Island, and directly followed the clues left by the monk who issued the mission, and went to visit a cave on the island.

Outside this cave, less than two quarters of an hour after he sent out the transmission note, the door of the cave opened from the inside, and a man with a thick eyebrows and big eyes walked out.

This great man's cultivation is extremely high, and he is the same as Zhou Yang's Jindan eighth layer, no wonder he dares to fight the idea of the [Water Avoidance Golden Eye Beast], a fifth-order high-grade demon beast.

"Daoyou invited, in Xia Huang Yi, I came for the task of hunting the [Water-Avoiding Golden Eye Beast] issued by Daoyou, and I haven't asked Daoyou Gao's name yet?"

After Zhou Yang and Dahan looked at each other for a while, they quickly gave their names and explained their intentions.

Seeing this, the big man also stopped and continued to look at him, and bowed his head slightly in response: "It turned out to be Huang Yi Daoyou, Daoyou is polite, a certain family surnamed Ruan Mingxiong is indeed the person who issued the task of hunting the [Water-Avoiding Golden Eye Beast]. ”

After speaking, he raised his hand sideways, made a "please" gesture and said: "Outside is not the place to talk, Huang Daoyou, please come in first, let's talk about this matter while drinking in the cave." ”

"Then bother Ruan Daoyou. ”

Zhou Yang said, and followed him into the cave.

After entering the cave mansion, after the two of them sat down, the big man named Ruan Xiong's lips moved slightly and said a few words, and immediately two young female cultivators with good faces and figures came in from outside the living room with wine jugs and wine glasses, filled the wine glasses for the two, and then stood on one side to accompany them.

"Come, Huang Daoyou came from afar, Ruan Mou saluted Daoyou. ”

The big man Ruan Xiong picked up the wine glass and saluted Zhou Yangyao, said a word, and then raised his head and drank the wine in the cup.

Ruan Daoyou was hospitable, Huang was very honored, and he also gave Daoyou a cup. ”

Zhou Yang looked at the amber spirit wine in the cup, smiled lightly, took it up generously and drank it all, then turned the wine glass upside down and put it back on the plate next to it.

Seeing this, the big man Ruan Xiong's eyes flashed, and he couldn't help but look at him and said, "Isn't Huang Daoyou afraid that Ruan will poison the wine?"

When Zhou Yang heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Hahaha, Ruan Daoyou said that he was joking, Huang and Daoyou have never met before, and there is no conflict of interest, what reason does Daoyou have to do this?"

After speaking, his face was straight, and he looked at the big man with a straight face and said: "Besides, with Ruan Daoyou's cultivation, if you really want to deal with Huang, you can easily win without poisoning, so why bother." ”

When Ruan Xiong heard his words, he immediately laughed: "Hahaha, Huang Daoyou is really refreshing and sincere, Ruan likes to talk to a refreshing person like Daoyou." ”

After laughing, he waved his big hand and said, "Okay, you guys should retreat first." ”

But it was said to the two female nuns who were accompanying them.

After the two escort maids obeyed the order and left, he nodded to Zhou Yang and said: "Huang Daoyou is so refreshing, Ruan will no longer test anything, if Daoyou has any questions you want to ask, you can be blunt now, and after Daoyou finishes asking, Ruan will discuss with Daoyou about going to sea." ”

"Since Ruan Daoyou said so, then Huang is not welcome, dare to ask Ruan Daoyou, is there any evidence in his hand that proves the existence of the [Water-Avoiding Golden-Eyed Beast]?And if it is really as Daoyou said in the mission information, the [Water-Avoiding Golden-eyed Beast] inhabits the open sea, after we hunt it, it will inevitably alarm the demon king there, have Daoyou ever thought about how to deal with this matter? Finally, if Huang joins the team, what reward is Daoyou willing to pay?"

After Zhou Yang finished his question in one breath, he stared at Ruan Xiong with blazing eyes, waiting for him to answer.

Facing his gaze, Ruan Xiong smiled calmly: "Huang Daoyou's questions are good, then listen to Ruan Mou to answer them one by one." ”

"This is the image of the [Water-Avoiding Golden-eyed Beast] that Ruan Mou wrote down with a photo bead, and Daoists can know the truth at a glance. ”

"As for the demon king behind the [Water-Avoiding Golden-eyed Beast], Daoist friends don't have to worry about this matter, the reason why Ruan is looking for someone to hunt it at this time is because he learned that the demon king had a big battle with a Yuan Infant senior decades ago, and he has been sleeping in the lair to recuperate recently, even if he finds out that the [Water-Avoiding Golden-eyed Beast] has been killed, he will not take the risk of recurring his injuries. ”

"Finally, let's talk about the reward, the basic reward given by Ruan is 250,000 spirit stones, no matter whether the trip is smooth or not, this spirit stone will be handed over to the Taoist friend after arriving at the destination, as for more compensation, it depends on the contribution of the Taoist friend in the battle, and this part of the reward will only be given if the action is successful!"

Ruan Xiong was answering for Zhou Yang, and with a wave of his hand, he threw the photo bead in his mouth to Zhou Yang.

Zhou Yang stretched out his hand to catch the shadow bead, injected a trace of mana to excite, and soon saw the figure of the [Water-Avoiding Golden-eyed Beast].

I saw that on the blue sea, a strange beast that looked like a unicorn, a lion's head, a dragon's mouth, fish scales, an ox's tail, a tiger's claws, and a bull's horn was treading the waves.

The beast had the golden eyes of a majestic steed, its scales as blue as the sea, its head, its four claws, and its tail were golden, and there were two golden rhinoceros horns on the top of its head.

Judging from its huge size of more than thirty zhang long, this [Water-Avoiding Golden Eye Beast] is definitely a fifth-order demon beast even if it is not a fifth-order high-grade demon beast.

"That's right, it's indeed a fifth-order [Water-Avoiding Golden Eye Beast]. ”

Zhou Yang nodded, turned off the image released by the photo bead, and handed it back to Ruan Xiong.

Then he made a look of thinking with his head down, and began to be silent.

Seeing this, Ruan Xiong didn't urge, but just reached out and picked up the wine jug from the table in front of him, poured himself a glass of spiritual wine, and waited patiently for himself.

After a quarter or two of an hour or two, Zhou Yang raised his head and looked at him and said: "The reward that Ruan Daoyou said, Huang still has some questions, you and I both know that the [Water-Avoiding Golden Eye Beast] has a talent for treasure hunting, and likes to collect treasures, I don't know if those treasures will be counted in the distributable reward?

Hearing his words, Ruan Xiong's face suddenly froze, and then he smiled and said: "Hey, Huang Daoyou is a good question, the treasures collected by the [Water-Avoiding Golden Eye Beast] are naturally owned by Ruan, otherwise Ruan is providing remuneration and news, for what?"

After speaking, he paused slightly, and continued: "As for the spiritual vein where this beast's nest is located, although it is also a fifth-order high-grade spiritual vein with a strong aura, after all, it is in the open sea, of course, it can only be abandoned, or if Huang Daoyou wants to occupy it, Ruan Mou has no opinion, the resources on the spiritual vein, Ruan Mou can also let you Daoist friends explore and pick by themselves!"

"Ruan Daoyou's condition, but it's a little difficult to teach Huang!"

Zhou Yang looked at Ruan Xiong with a look of embarrassment, changing his previous cheerfulness, and seemed hesitant.

Seeing this, Ruan Xiong also lost his previous politeness, and said with a cold face: "If Huang Daoyou feels embarrassed, Ruan is not reluctant, and he is not afraid to tell Daoyou that Ruan has found four Taoist friends who are willing to go with him, even if Huang Daoyou does not visit today, Ruan is also ready to set off in half a month." ”

"This ......"

Zhou Yang's face changed for a while, and after hesitating for a long time, Fang nodded with a wry smile and said, "Okay, Ruan Daoyou won, Huang accepts Daoyou's conditions!"

When Ruan Xiong heard his words, his originally cold face quickly regained his enthusiasm, and he suddenly smiled heartily and said: "Hahaha, since Huang Daoyou agreed, he is a fellow Daoist, Ruan will tell you about the situation of this trip first, so that you can have a number in your heart." ”

They are all human spirits who have lived for hundreds of years, and if they can't even do this little bit of controlling emotional changes, they have lived for so many years in vain.

As a result, the two quickly forgot about the previous unhappiness, and resumed their previous enthusiastic state and began to talk freely.

Half a day later, Zhou Yang left Ruan Xiong's cave mansion, and then rented a separate courtyard in an immortal inn on Thunder Whale Island and stayed for a while.

In the conversation with Ruan Xiong, Zhou Yang had already learned the names and cultivation of the other four monks in the other party's mouth, and after the other party confirmed that he was participating in the operation, he had already spread the news to those people, and agreed to set off to the "Tianlan Outer Sea" to hunt the [Water-Avoiding Golden Eye Beast] in half a month.

At this time, after Zhou Yang settled down in the immortal inn, he immediately sent a message to Jiang Fengxian through the [Echo Conch], asking him to send the slower [Fish Dragon Shuttle] to the "Tianlan Outer Sea" to wait, and answer him at any time.

"It's a little strange, this Ruan Xiong didn't have any problems with other aspects of his performance, but he didn't even ask me in detail about my origins, and he agreed to let me join the team. ”

"Did he forget about it, or did he have some other plans?"

In the immortal inn, Zhou Yang recalled the process of meeting and talking with Ruan Xiong today, and soon discovered this suspicion that he had ignored.

He originally had a ghost in his heart, and when he talked to Ruan Xiong, he deliberately ignored this point, and even when he visited at the beginning, he deliberately took the lead and reported his name to lead the topic to avoid the other party asking more about it.

But Ruan Xiong, as the owner and the initiator of the action, really didn't ask him in detail about his origin throughout the whole process, which is too abnormal.

Before Zhou Yang came, he also took great pains to forge a history for himself for this matter, and still played the role of a Jindan period monk who came from the Donghua Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm to the overseas Immortal Cultivation Realm, on the grounds that he came here to be a high-level demon beast hunter and earn cultivation resources.

In order to fit this character, he would have bargained with Ruan Xiong on the issue of remuneration before.

But now the origin and character he painstakingly forged for himself seem to have all become useless.

"Let's take a look first, if everyone arrives in half a month, and Ruan Xiong hasn't asked about it, it means that he is indeed harboring evil intentions!"

Zhou Yang glanced in the direction of Ruan Xiong Cave Mansion with a deep face, and didn't think much about it.

He didn't know that in the cave mansion, Ruan Xiong was also doing a review and analysis of today's meeting with him.

"There is something wrong with this surnamed Huang, today he reported his name, but did not say his origin, first of all, the sincerity is questionable. ”

"But then he cared so much about the pay, and he showed so much attention to the plan of action, it seemed that he really wanted to participate in this mission, which is a bit contradictory!"

"It's just that why do I always feel that his breath has an ethereal and vain meaning?

"No, no, no, this should be what I thought about a lot, if he has that kind of ability, how can he look at the reward of hunting [Water-Avoiding Golden Eye Beast]?"

"No matter, even if he really has ulterior motives, as long as he gets there, he won't be able to make any waves, so I'd better not startle the snake. ”

In the cave mansion, Ruan Xiong's eyes flickered and thought for a while, then his eyes suddenly narrowed, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he sneered, and he didn't think about what happened during the day anymore.

Half a month passed quickly, and on this day, after Zhou Yang received Ruan Xiong's summons, he went to the other party's cave mansion, and then met four other teammates there besides himself and Ruan Xiong.

Among these four people, the highest cultivation is a seventh-layer silver-haired old man named Wei Tao, an ancestor of a cultivator family, and his lifespan is less than a hundred years.

Then there was a sixth-layer yellow-clothed young man from Jindan, named Huang Yunxing, from a medium-sized sect Dongji Sect, although he looked young, but his eyes could see the vicissitudes of time precipitated.

Zhou Yang judged from this that this person estimated that he had taken a spiritual pill such as "Dingyan Pill" when he was young, and he looked young, and his actual age was probably not so small.

The third monk was a beautiful woman wearing a white palace dress and a long skirt, named Qian Bingyun, a fifth-level cultivator of Jindan, and a casual cultivator.

The fourth monk is a middle-aged man in white with a long sword hanging from his waist, named Liu Xingping, who is also a fifth-layer cultivator of Jindan, and the woman in the white skirt, Qian Bingyun, is a double monk, and the two have a good reputation in the overseas immortal cultivation world, and they are the envy of many middle and low-level monks.

"In Xia Huang Yi, he has just come to the overseas immortal cultivation world from Donghuazhou for less than ten years, if there is anything inappropriate on the road, I hope you will bear with me!"

When it was Zhou Yang's turn to introduce himself, he bowed to a few people with a humble face, and briefly introduced his origin in a polite tone.

Hearing his words, the others didn't react, Ruan Xiong had already said with a look of surprise on his face: "Ruan Mou also forgot to ask last time, but I didn't expect Huang Daoyou to come from all the way from the Donghua Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm, which is a bit rare!"

"Haha, don't blame Ruan Daoyou, Huang was also afraid of any prejudice against Daoyou because of my new overseas cultivation of immortals, so he deliberately didn't say much, here I will make amends to Daoyou first. ”

Zhou Yang laughed, and bowed to Ruan Xiong alone as an atonement for his crimes.

Seeing this, Ruan Xiong shook his head again and again and said: "Huang Daoyou is too worried, Ruan has also traveled to the immortal cultivation world in Donghua Continent, and he has a deep feeling for the prosperity there, and he yearns for it, if he knows that Huang Daoyou is from there, he will only pay respect, how can he have any prejudice!"

He said this beautifully, but Zhou Yang only listened to it casually, and he didn't really believe it in his heart.

Xenophobia is human nature, and immortal cultivators are no exception, as evidenced by the change in the eyes of several other monks after hearing him report his origin.

Ruan Xiong's words just now were not so much to tell him, but to remind the other four not to cause any more trouble.

Obviously, the four of them also understood Ruan Xiong's hints, and quickly controlled the displeasure in their hearts, and they talked and laughed with Zhou Yang.

In this way, a group of six people talked in Ruan Xiong's cave mansion for a long time, and after each of them exchanged and revealed some of the means they were good at, they left Thunder Whale Island under the leadership of Ruan Xiong and went straight to the "Tianlan Outer Sea".
