Chapter 433: Beast Tide
It didn't take long for a black light to fly from the sky.
The light flickered, revealing the figure of the black-robed old woman.
The black-robed old woman let go of her divine sense and swept towards the sea below, although she checked very carefully, she failed to find Wang Changsheng who was hiding hundreds of zhang deep underground.
After retracting her divine sense, the black-robed old woman turned into a black light and fled towards the sky.
In a natural stone cave hundreds of zhang deep under the island, yellow light flashed, and Wang Changsheng drilled out of the stone wall on the side of the stone cave, covered with a yellow light cover.
Wang Changsheng took out a fist-sized moonstone, and with the soft light emitted by the moonstone, he could see the surrounding situation clearly.
At this time, he was in a stalactite cave that extended in all directions.
Wang Changsheng let go of his divine sense and didn't sense any breath of life, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
After thinking about it for a while, Wang Changsheng slapped the spirit beast bag on his waist with his palm, and the two bloodthirsty spirit bats flashed out in the billowing black air.
"Go, let's see what's going on inside," Wang Changsheng commanded the two bloodthirsty spirit bats, pointing to the two black caves.
The Bloodthirsty Spirit Bat can also see its surroundings clearly in dark places, and it is sensitive to blood after all, so it is best to use it to find its way.
After a while, two bloodthirsty spirit bats flew back one after another, and one of the bloodthirsty spirit bats chattered non-stop in its mouth, as if it had discovered something.
Seeing this, Wang Changsheng raised his eyebrows, let go of his divine sense, and carefully swept the cave that this bloodthirsty spirit bat was exploring, but found nothing.
"Lead the way ahead," Wang Changsheng thought for a moment and commanded.
The two bloodthirsty spirit bats immediately flew into a black cave, and Wang Changsheng took two talisman seals for himself and followed him slowly.
After walking for dozens of meters, Wang Changsheng came to a larger stalactite cave.
In the middle of the cavern, two humanoid skeletons lay to the ground, one with a rusty dagger stuck in its chest, and the other with its head detached and its skull scattered on the ground not far away.
In addition to this, there were several broken magic artifacts scattered on the ground.
What caught Wang Changsheng's attention was that in the corner of the cave, there was an extremely simple hexagonal magic circle.
Wang Changsheng took a closer look and found that this magic circle was quite similar to the teleportation array, so he didn't know where the other end of the teleportation array was.
Wang Changsheng walked over to the two corpses and tore off the storage bag tied to the bones.
He poured the two storage bags down, and after a roll of glow, a large pile of immortal cultivation resources such as demon beast materials, ores, and spirit stones appeared on the ground.
Among them, most of them are monster materials.
After Wang Changsheng's careful identification, he found that these demon beast materials were all on the fourth- and fifth-level demon beasts.
Thinking of the teleportation array in the corner, Wang Changsheng guessed that this teleportation array was very likely to be teleported back to the inland sea, and the two corpses may have been smuggled before their deaths.
The Qingyuan Sea is a newly discovered sea area, and the teleportation array back to the inland sea is only available on large islands, and there are not many of them, and each time you teleport back to the inland sea, you need to pay a large sum of spirit stones.
In order to save the spirit stones of the teleportation cost, some lawbreakers will privately set up a teleportation array, purchase various materials and send them back to the inland sea to sell, or buy immortal cultivation items that are in short supply in the outer sea such as talismans and magic vessels from the inland sea, and teleport them to the open sea for sale, which is expressly forbidden by the local administrators.
Wang Changsheng classified the immortal cultivation items on the ground into different storage beads according to their classification, and then took out a water mirror jade talisman and recorded the image of the teleportation array.
After doing all this, Wang Changsheng sat cross-legged on the ground, recalling the experience of encountering the monks of the Yudan period this time.
According to the black-robed old woman, she has been looking for Wang Changsheng for a while, who can she send a monk in the Yudan period to find Wang Changsheng?
In Wang Changsheng's impression, he didn't offend high-ranking monks, so to change his mind, who did he have a grudge with?
"Yang Qian," Yang Qian's face immediately appeared in Wang Changsheng's mind.
Yang Qian once lured Wang Changsheng to Zisang Island, causing Wang Changsheng to be attacked by five foundation building monks.
Last time, the five foundation building monks all missed, and it was hard to guarantee that Yang Qian would not spend a lot of money to invite the monks of the Yudan period.
At the thought of being targeted by a monk of the Yudan period, Wang Changsheng shuddered.
It seems that he really can't stay in the Qingyuan Sea anymore, and it is safer to teleport back to the inland sea.
The teleportation array in front of him was somewhat similar to the teleportation array in Qingyuan City, but it was still a little different, and he didn't dare to guarantee that it must be teleported back to the Inland Sea.
After some careful consideration, Wang Changsheng felt that it would be more appropriate to return to Qingyuan City and teleport back to the Inland Sea, but before that, he had to refine a few more high-level beast soul talismans.
For the next half month, Wang Changsheng stayed in this stalactite cave underground, refining the beast soul talisman.
After failing several times, Wang Changsheng successfully refined several beast soul talismans that sealed the spirit soul of a fifth-level demon beast, and in addition, he used the essence soul of the turtle beast to refine more than a dozen beast soul talismans.
On this day, Wang Changsheng put on a grimace mask and sneaked back to the surface.
Back on the ground, Wang Changsheng sacrificed the Snow Wind Boat, and the imperial weapon flew into the sky.
Before leaving, Wang Changsheng made several unique markings on the highest peak on the island in case of emergency.
More than a month later, Wang Changsheng appeared over Qingyuan Island.
He looked at Qingyuan City, which was shrouded in a huge yellow light curtain below, and frowned.
Wang Changsheng remembered very well that Qingyuan City did not have this yellow light curtain before, and it seemed that it had only been activated recently, in addition, dozens of glittering giant crossbow magic weapons were also placed on the city wall, as if something big was about to happen.
After thinking about it for a while, Wang Changsheng put this thought behind him, no matter what happened, it was none of his business, he just needed to take the teleportation array and leave the Qingyuan Sea Area.
Thinking like this, Wang Changsheng's imperial weapon landed, put away the snow wind boat, and walked into Qingyuan City with his feet raised.
Wang Changsheng was surprised to find that there were more than twice as many pedestrians on the street as when he first arrived in Qingyuan City, and it seemed crowded.
In addition, Wang Changsheng also noticed that these pedestrians were in a hurry and their faces were solemn.
Seeing this scene, Wang Changsheng had a bad premonition in his heart.
When Wang Changsheng came to the vicinity of the high platform where the teleportation array was located, he was surprised to find that the high platform where the teleportation array was located was shrouded in a golden light shroud, and there were seven or eight foundation building monks guarding it all around.
Seeing this, Wang Changsheng's brows furrowed.
"What's going on here, how did you seal the teleportation array," Wang Changsheng called out to a middle-aged man passing by and asked in a deep voice.
The middle-aged man was only on the eleventh layer of Qi refining, and in the face of an inquiry from a foundation building monk, he naturally did not dare to slack off, and replied respectfully:
"Back to the predecessors, the beast tide broke out, the high-level demon beasts led the low-level demon beasts to attack the island inhabited by humans, Qingyuan Island is now allowed to enter and not go out, once the escape is discovered by the people in the management office, there is only a dead end. ”
"When did the beast tide break out?" asked Wang Changsheng with a frown.
"Just more than half a month ago, I don't know what happened, the high-level demon beasts suddenly led a large number of low-level demon beasts to attack the island where our immortal cultivators lived, dozens of islands have been broken by demon beasts, the immortal cultivators and mortals on the island have been killed and injured, and several predecessors of the Dan stage have also fallen," the middle-aged man said with palpitations.
"Didn't the administrator of the Qingyuan Sea Region send people to investigate the cause of the demon beast rebellion?" Wang Changsheng groaned for a moment and asked.
"This junior doesn't know, anyway, no immortal cultivator dares to live on small and medium-sized islands now, either go to the three large islands of Qingyuan Island, Black Rock Island, and Tianxing Island for refuge, or run to the small islands in the big rear to settle down," the middle-aged man shook his head and said slowly.
Wang Changsheng nodded and let the middle-aged man leave.
