Chapter 336: The Vast Sea
The vast sea is located in the south of the north and the north of Zhongzhou, although the sea is as wide as 120,000 miles, although it cannot be compared with the vast and boundless, the East China Sea where the kraken is rampant, but it is also sinister, there are many monsters, and it is very human to cross, which is the natural barrier between Zhongzhou and the north.

Even if it is a real person of the Jindan Rank, if he flies through the vast sea alone, he will have to take a lot of risks. All kinds of monsters in the air and sea, as well as irregular storms and thunders, will cause great trouble to people.
Although the vast sea was very dangerous, it was not enough to stop the footsteps of the high-ranking monks. Yuanying level masters can fly at a high altitude of up to 10,000 zhang, avoid most of the obstacles, travel thousands of miles a day, for several days, it is not difficult to survive the vast sea, even if it is a Jindan monk, the strength is stronger, and the more careful can cross alone, so the communication between the two places has never been severed.
However, communication between high-ranking monks alone could not meet the needs of trading between the two places. Both Beidi and Zhongzhou have a very large area, and there are many specialties that each other needs very much. Particularly cherished items, because of their scarce quantity and high value, the demand and amount are relatively small, can also be carried by traveling high-ranking monks to communicate with each other. And those bulk goods whose value is not very valuable, but which are extremely profitable and in great demand, cannot be traded in such an irregular way, so opening up the vast sea route is a very profitable and imperative thing for the big forces of the two places.
With the drive of demand and profit, a lot of difficult things will also become quite easy. With the cooperation of the high-ranking monks of the two places, several relatively safe shipping lanes were explored. The high-ranking monks cleared the waterways, made a deal with the high-ranking demons in the vast sea, and built ships that could withstand most storms and thunders. With these conditions, crossing the vast sea is no longer the preserve of high-ranking monks. Low-level monks and even some low-level martial artists, as long as they have enough wealth, can also rely on these sea routes to travel between Beidi and Zhongzhou.
In the course of thousands of years of development and change, about nine routes have been opened up by various major forces in the two places. On the side of Huangzhou, the Heavenly Killing Temple and the Heavenly City Temple, which is good at trade, have mastered two routes, and the other five major temples also have their own routes. While these routes connected the two places, they also brought great benefits to the various temples. All kinds of Zhongzhou specialties and resources that are of great help to the monks are constantly transported to the various temples through the shipping routes, which greatly enriches the power of the temples.
In addition to the huge benefits in terms of resources, the opening of shipping routes has also brought many other benefits to the various temples. Although the main role of the shipping route was the trading of bulk resources, the temple also opened up some passenger ships to communicate between the two sides of the strait. The disciples of each temple can take a ride and go to Zhongzhou to practice. This kind of experience not only increased the knowledge of the disciples of the temple, but also allowed the elites of each temple to get acquainted with many monks from Zhongzhou. These personal friendships are not very useful when the cultivation of the disciples of the temple is not high, but when both parties have grown up, they are very important. Once something big happens, the various temples can rely on these friendships to find many high-level monks from Zhongzhou for reinforcements. Like this battle against the alien demon race, there was a god god from Zhongzhou and several Yuanying peak masters who were invited to join the camp of the Seven Great Temples of Wasteland, and made great contributions to the final victory of the war. The value of this is far from being measurable by the interests of ordinary resources.
The interests of the shipping route are so huge, and naturally it has attracted the attention of many other forces. Although there are not many forces in Huangzhou except for the Seven Great Temples, there are many strong forces on the Zhongzhou side, and many forces that have not reached an agreement with the Seven Great Temples are very covetous of this, and there are even things that support the weak forces in Huangzhou to break the monopoly of the major temples. In order to stabilize the situation, the major temples abandoned the policy of completely monopolizing the shipping routes, and divided a small part of the benefits to other forces. In addition to uniting more big forces and separating some cargo ships, the passenger ships that were originally dedicated to carrying temple disciples were also open to small sect disciples and casual cultivators. Of course, the price of the ferry ticket is amazingly expensive, and it is no less than the freight revenue.
However, although the passenger ship between the two places is very expensive, the business is not cold. Many of the monks who like to travel, or who need to leave the wasteland, are happy to pay a high price to go to Zhongzhou. Moreover, although the passenger ship could not transport large quantities of goods, it could still transport a lot of materials by relying on the monk's Qiankun bag. If you can buy some urgently needed and profitable materials on the other side of the strait in advance, and sell the goods after landing, you can also get a lot of profits. Some monks with the means and brains started 'cross-strait trade' just by transporting goods in Qiankun bags, and it is said that many people have really made a fortune. Because these small merchants are flexible, and the materials they transport are varied, some of which are even scarce materials that are rarely collected by the temple, so the temple does not prohibit this situation, and slowly, these maritime merchants have become a pretty good profession. Zhu Fanyu, who is chatting with Mo En at the moment, is one of the shipping merchants.
The reason why he had the opportunity to get along with the maritime merchants was because Morn was also communicating with the passenger ships on both sides of the strait at this time. After settling the troubles of Masataki Zhenjun, Morn flew to Jinxia City in the southern part of the Arashi. After pondering there for a few days, after waiting for the news from Minghua Zhenjun, Mo En spent three hundred high-grade spirit stones, and in the name of scattered cultivation during the foundation building period, he boarded the Jincheng that belonged to the Heavenly Killing Temple and traveled between Jinxia City in Huangzhou and Runshi City in Zhongzhou.
However, unlike the general maritime merchants who pull relationships everywhere after getting on the ship, Morn chose to take a sea ship instead of flying alone across the vast sea, mainly to have time to consolidate his cultivation, and at the same time to refine his natal magic weapon with the Chaos Refining Treasure, so for more than four months after the sea ship opened, Morn has been in retreat in his exclusive room. It wasn't until the ship was about to reach its destination that Morn completely mastered the power of the advanced ascension, and refined the Chaos Essence Gold and the Five Elements Yuan Crystal, creating the embryo of his natal magic weapon. And after completing this, Mo En was in the mood to look at the sea view and chat with a shipping merchant like Zhu Fanyu who was familiar with the situation in Zhongzhou.
"Looking at Brother Zhu, you should be very familiar with Zhongzhou, can you introduce Runshi City to you?" After talking a little bit, Mo En asked the enthusiastic Zhu Fanyu with a smile. (To be continued.) (To be continued.) )
