Chapter Eighty-Eight: Ten Thousand Demon Island
The sea breeze is gentle, the giant birds are sweeping in the sky, and the blue clouds in the sky are gliding gracefully at a speed visible to the naked eye, leaving only a lonely shadow.
Amid the shouts of sailors, the giant sails were raised, and the super merchant ship with hundreds of people on board was heading towards the Ten Thousand Demon Island, thousands of miles away.
Ten Thousand Demon Island is a super large island in the easternmost part of the Central Sea, and from the mouths of those merchants, it would take two years for a person to cross the entire island on horseback.
This is still when the road does not stop and people do not sleep.
It has been half a month since Zhushan came to this sea area, and on that day Zhushan walked out of the ancient teleportation array, but found himself under the ground of a yellow island, and after hiding the teleportation array a little, Zhushan hid his identity and blended into a small island near the desert island.
There are more than 10,000 inhabitants on the island, and the people are simple, and there are no high-ranking monks on it, so Zhushan casually integrates into the island as a traveling monk.
Although it is still millions of miles away from the Central Sea, it can be seen from the folk customs here that the entire Central Sea is prosperous.
There are no cultivators here who have not cultivated, even ordinary civilians have the strength of qi refiners, all of them are brave, capturing and killing sea beasts, communicating with heaven and earth......
Take the sailor who shouted just now is the cultivation of a fifth-level qi refiner, and after the qi refiner is the demon yuan stage and so on.
Zhushan disguised himself as a foot-walking merchant passing through here, and infiltrated this merchant ship, and among the hundreds of people there was a caravan of a small demon cultivator family, led by a demon spirit monk.
However, when Zhushan saw that big man's face was full of anger, he knew that this person's actual combat power might be much higher.
In order not to be noticeable, Zhushan spent a lot of magic stones in the cabin to rent a separate room, which was extremely crude, no more than four or five square meters in size, except for a wooden bed was a pair of tables and chairs, but it was good for the current situation.
Outside of this central sea, it is divided into east, west, north and south four sea areas, and now Zhushan is the eastern sea area, and the destination of this merchant ship, Wanmo Island, is also the largest gathering place for cultivation in the vicinity.
There are many demon cultivation sects above, and countless monks gather to be called Ten Thousand Demon Island.
And Zhushan overheard those sailors laughing and mentioning that the establishment of a sect on Ten Thousand Demon Island must at least require a monk from the Demon Infant Stage to be in charge, and it is rumored that there are several Demon Venerable cultivators in Ten Thousand Demon Island.
Above the Demon Infant Period, it is for the Demon Venerable.
Once the cultivation reaches the Demon Infant Stage, the longevity Yuan will reach a thousand years long, but the old monster of the Demon Venerable Stage is Zhushan, and the news that Zhushan spent the magic stone to buy is only three thousand years ago, the Wuji Demon Venerable once appeared on the Ten Thousand Demon Island.
But after that, he never heard anything about the deeds of the Demon Venerable Stage monks, and Zhushan didn't take it to heart after hearing the news, because where could these ordinary civilians come into contact with the world of the Demon Venerable Period.
If you go to the Ten Thousand Demon Island and join one of the sects, you may be able to get more information.
After a few days at sea, Takeyama was no longer on deck.
Originally, Zhushan still had some expectations for the sea beasts in the eastern seas, but as some sailors and boatmen successively caught several sea fish, most of which were just some sea beasts refining qi, Zhushan lost interest.
According to the old captain, this is one of the main sea lanes for monks to travel to, and the large sea beasts are estimated to have been rounded up by monks.
The only thing to worry about is the notorious pirates at sea, who are outlaws who often rob merchant ships.
And the ship in Zhushan was hung with a three-legged bird flag with a golden stripe early in the morning, but this three-legged bird is a three-legged golden crow of Warcraft, and there is a golden crow family on Ten Thousand Demon Island, and hanging this flag means that the ship is under the protection of the golden crow family.
But the unexpected still happened......
On this day, when Zhushan was still cultivating, an abrupt horn whistle sounded from the deck outside.
The footsteps were chaotic, and Zhushan opened the wooden door only to see a couple on the other side looking around in panic......
"Big brother, you're still here, there's a pirate outside, it's said that the other party is less than ten miles away from here, let's find a boat and escape!" the middle-aged woman shouted with some concern.
Zhushan pretended to be a little flustered, and in a hurry, he wondered: "Isn't there a guard and several immortal masters on this merchant ship, we will definitely be fine with them!"
"No...... The banner of the Golden Crow family was completely useless against the pirate, and as for the immortal master, there were also among the pirates! It is said that the caravan Zhang Immortal Master had gone over to negotiate, but he was wounded and escaped. At this time, the middle-aged man sighed with absolute emotion on his face.
By the time Zhushan arrived on the deck, he had already seen hundreds of people gathered here, and the crowd of panic had squeezed the entire deck.
Captain Du stood on a wooden platform wearing a pair of distinctive battle armor and raised his arms and shouted:
"Ladies and gentlemen, less than twenty nautical miles away from us are the most vicious ghost thieves in the legend, the reason why they don't kill us is to divide us, once someone escapes, it is a certain death, and only a battle can kill nine lives!"
But Old Man Du's words didn't have much effect, hundreds of people were still out of order, and some of them were even ready to use magic weapons to escape from here.
After communicating with a middle-aged man for a while, the man was the captain of the caravan on the ship and the person with the highest cultivation on the ship.
The middle-aged man had some blood stains on his shoulder, obviously injured, his face sank, and he coughed loudly: "Everyone, please listen to me!"
As soon as the mana of the Demon Spirit Stage shouted, the scene suddenly fell silent.
Most of these ship's passengers are cultivating as Qi Refiners, among which there are only more than ten monks in the Demon Yuan Period, so it can be said that the only people on this ship who can fight are those sailors and caravan guards.
The middle-aged man's magic sense swept away, and he continued: "A deacon of the Chen family on the Lower Ten Thousand Demon Island, this time he went to sea like everyone else, just running to the merchant and buying some materials. And the ghost thief currently has only one request, the Qi Refiner Cultivator has 10,000 magic stones per person, and the Demon Yuan Period is 50,000, and he can leave alive after handing over the magic stones, otherwise he will ......"
The man surnamed Chen raised his hand and blasted out a demonic qi, blowing out a gap in the stern of the ship that was four or five zhang in size.
Then he said with a gloomy face: "Today there is only one battle to rest, I swear in the name of the Chen family, as long as everyone survives this catastrophe, and when they arrive at Ten Thousand Demon Island, each person can receive a thousand magic stones in my Chen family's shop!"
Hearing this, Zhushan already understood that the Chen family was looking for a replacement for the dead ghost, and once the two sides went to war, Zhushan was sure that the monk surnamed Chen would definitely secretly send someone to transport away the things they were escorting this time.
But the generous statement of the man surnamed Chen really aroused the resonance of most of the boat passengers, and Zhushan saw that there were several monks of the Chen family secretly fanning the flames.
Shaking his head, Takeyama turned around and walked towards the cabin.
The sky is falling, there is a big one to go to the top, and Zhushan will not take the initiative to find trouble.
There are also many people who think the same way as Takeyama, and there are still many people in the cabin who have not come out.
In the sky only two or three miles away from the ship, a hovering goshawk watched for a long time and then swooped away.
The goshawk is the spy of the ghost thief, this time he saw the excitement on the passenger ship, it seems that there is a great tendency to resist, the other party has reacted, there are more than ten ghost thief fleets, all of them are small and brisk, and there are well-trained armored men standing on it, although they add up to only dozens of people, but the momentum faintly overshadows the hundreds of people here.
Twenty nautical miles passed in an instant, and the ghost thieves flew into the air together, the demonic energy was rolling, and the magic weapons were shining.
The man surnamed Chen here saw that a vicious battle was inevitable, so he quietly gave a color to the guards around him, and then jumped up to meet him.
More than a dozen Chen family guards also followed, and the captain Du Lao Tou turned his heart sideways, and with a wave of his hand, he flew into the air with more than two dozen sailors.
The rest of the ship's passengers saw that the Chen family monk and the captain and others were bravely taking the lead, and their courage also surged, and then hundreds of boatmen took off one by one, and all kinds of magic weapons flowed brightly, and the momentum was also amazing.
As soon as the man surnamed Chen made a move, he was stopped by a young man with a fan among the ghost thieves, and the young man sneered: "Why, don't you run away alone, choose to die and break the net? It seems that you shouldn't have been left alive just now!"
This fan-wielding young man was dressed in ordinary clothes, but this shot immediately revealed the cultivation of the fake Dan period, and many of the passengers in this scene even wanted to turn around and leave immediately.
No wonder the captain of the Chen family's guard was injured before and returned, it turned out to be a monk with a false pill stage among the ghost thieves, and he alone could kill everyone in the entire merchant ship.
A few people spread their legs and were about to slip away, this move immediately led to the rout of the entire formation, those ghost thieves were not weak in cultivation, plus they were people fighting to the death, dozens of people suppressed hundreds of people to fight.
At the behest of the fan-wielding youth, the ghost thieves killed a few of the boatmen and then let the others escape, and a few minutes later the field turned into a ghost thief crowd surrounded by dozens of sailors and guards.
Among the ghost thieves, in addition to the young man holding the fan, there was actually a Demon Spirit Stage monk, and as for the Demon Yuan Stage monk, there were dozens of people.
On the contrary, there is only one Demon Spirit Stage cultivator on the Chen family's side, and in addition, only Captain Du Old Man is in the late stage of the Demon Yuan Great Perfection, and most of the rest are in the Demon Disciple Stage cultivation.
There was a roar in the air, magic weapons collided constantly, and screams were heard from time to time.
But most of the dead were sailors and guards of the Chen family, and on the other side, the man surnamed Chen was in danger under the attack of the fan-wielding youth, and the scene became critical for a while.
Old Man Du's eyes were cracked, like madness, and the more than 20 sailors he had worked so hard to train had suffered more than half of the casualties in half an hour, and if he continued like this, he would definitely die and be lifeless.
Old Man Du spewed out a mouthful of essence blood, and the power of the demonic qi was great, and after forcing the two Demon Yuan Stage monks on the opposite side to get away, he relieved himself and shouted:
"Withdraw, run...... It's one that can escape!"
But then Old Man Du was targeted by the armor of the Demon Spirit Period, and at this time, the remaining sailors each showed their life-fighting skills, and they were forced to break through a few people.
However, under the desperate interception of the ghost thief armor, the injuries of the few people who broke through were extremely serious, and even if they were not chased and killed, they would not be able to run far.
Just as hundreds of boatmen rushed to flee, a scene of despair appeared......
Around the merchant ship, dozens of small black sailing boats appeared, and the fastest escaped passengers were killed on the spot.
Hundreds of passengers desperately fought back, and the battle was fierce for a while.
On the one hand, the armor warriors are elite and have profound cultivation, while on the other side, there are many people, and all kinds of magic weapons and exercises emerge in an endless stream.
The battlefield on the periphery was in full swing, and the ghost thief black-clad soldier actually slaughtered into the cabin, and the cries of women and children, the angry scolding of men, the cries of children, and so on rang out in all directions.
After killing a black-clothed armor soldier in the short narrow corridor of the cabin, Zhushan frowned and muttered, "The ghost thief is fierce, it is better to hide and wait for the opportunity." ”
The battle outside the ship has basically reached the end stage, the sailors have been killed, and most of the Chen family guards have been killed and wounded.
Takeyama was already watching the battle outside from a window-by-window guest room at this time, and after he cast the magic breath technique, those ghost thieves could basically ignore it, the only thing that made Takeyama feel embarrassed was whether he would fall to Pirate Island or continue to rush to Ten Thousand Demons Island alone if everyone on the ship was killed.
Suddenly, a swift yellow light shot out from the sky, and the momentum of the yellow mangs arrived here almost in the blink of an eye.
The man surnamed Chen was overjoyed, and he exclaimed, "Hold on, the elders will arrive immediately, and the destruction of this ghost and thieves will be in front of you!"
The face of the young man holding the fan changed, of course he could feel the cultivation of the Retreating Light Cultivator, the Chen family elder in the Demon Pill Period, he was not his opponent yet.
He glanced at the man surnamed Chen coldly: "It's just the middle stage of the demon spirit, you can hold on to my hands for so long, you are very good, next time I will definitely not keep my hand, farewell!"
After speaking, he exhaled a whistle, and the whistle instantly resounded throughout the battlefield.
The ghost thieves came in a hurry, and they went quickly, and hundreds of ghost thieves completely ignored the monks who were being pursued, and turned around and left.
Its well-trained formation is no more than the escort of even the large families......
At this time, the yellow light had already arrived, revealing an old man in a yellow robe.
The man surnamed Chen was relieved, and flew in front of the yellow-robed old man and saluted respectfully: "Villain Chen Fu, see more than seven elders!"
The seventh elder of the Chen family, a mid-stage cultivator of the Demon Pill, waved his hand casually and asked urgently: "The ghost thieves have deceived my Chen family too much, and they have robbed my Chen family's caravan many times, Chen Fu, where did the person in charge of the ghost thieves go?"
Chen Fu hurriedly pointed in one direction and said, "That young man with a fan went over there, he is a monk of the False Dan Period!"
A vicious battle ended so lightly, leaving only countless corpses and Yin Hong's large expanse of seawater.
Chen Fu breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the Seventh Elder leave: "Fortunately, the Seventh Elder arrived in time, otherwise it would have been a failure to lure the snake out of the hole this time!"
Chen Fu looked at the remaining three Chen family guards with apprehension and said, "Gather the boat passengers, and then wait for the Seven Elders to return!"
On the other side, seventy or eighty boatmen gradually returned to the ship after escaping death, and at this time, the captain of the ship, Old Man Du, had already had a different head, leaving only a headless body, and several surviving sailors were collecting Old Man Du's body.
Zhushan witnessed the entire massacre almost the whole time, although these people had nothing to do with him, but in this way, he saw too many partings of life and death, and his heart of cultivating demons in his heart became more and more firm.
Magic Pill Stage, Demon Infant Stage...... That day won't be too far away!
