Longevity starts with learning

To the south of Chixia, there is a sea area of ​​about 80,000 to 90,000 miles.

In the past, the sea area here was barren, with tens of thousands of miles in radius, no spiritual veins existed, and there were only a few secular islands.

In the world of Immortal Cultivation in the Vast Sea, there have been legends for a long time. It is said that in ancient times, there was a big monster that was plundering. The ancient monks with great supernatural powers came to suppress the monster. A great battle spread tens of thousands of miles. The spiritual veins were broken and the sea areas dried up, thus creating this world. The desolate and dead silence of the sea area.

It is difficult to tell whether the legend is true or false, but it is a visible fact that there are no spiritual veins or islands in this sea area.

As the war approaches Chixia, the vast sea of ​​​​immortal cultivation world has been a line of defense against the invasion of monsters for several years, and it is located in this sea area.

The once desolate land is now even more dead, the sea has turned blood-colored, and the man-made islands are densely covered like a chessboard, turning into a huge array covering it.

This line of defense, which has been named the Demon-Suppressing Islands, lives up to expectations, blocking the tide of beasts that has swept through almost half of the vast sea of ​​immortality from Chixia.

But the invasion of monsters is obviously different from the war within the world of immortality.

Most of the monsters are driven by high-level monsters, and it is impossible to strictly control the monks like the world of immortality.

This line of defense can only block those monsters with intelligence and some strictly controlled core monsters of the beast tide.

Most of the various monsters that were carried away by the beast tide basically dispersed after being blocked in the Demon Suppression Islands. They took root in this sea area and plundered, turning into a scourge that is difficult to eradicate.

The flying boat flies across the sky. Standing on the flying boat and overlooking the sea, one can clearly see the chaos in the sea.

Prey and hunter, these two identities are switching almost anytime and anywhere in this demon-suppressing sea area.

The vast sea area is full of blood-colored ripples. Under the steaming blood, as the spiritual energy surges, the blue sky is also filled with blood-colored clouds that cannot be dispersed.

"In that battle that year, at that location, the soldier puppet severely damaged a fourth-order monster, and was eventually damaged under the siege of two fourth-order monsters..."

Master Aoki pointed to a sea area not far away, and when he spoke slowly, he seemed to still have some lingering fear.

Chu Mu looked in the direction that Master Qingmu was pointing and asked casually: "Which battle did fellow Taoist also participate in?"

"That's natural."

Master Aoki nodded: "In that battle, except for the disciples in the Qi Realm, all the other monks in our clan went out. Even several elders in the clan who had been in seclusion for many years came out to kill the demons."

"In this sea area, we fought fiercely for nearly a year and killed four fourth-order monsters. The number of third-order monsters killed was at least fifty!"

"As for the low-level monsters, there are countless casualties. After so many years, most of this boundless blood is still the remnants of the past..."

Master Aoki was talking eloquently, and his words seemed to be filled with pride and pride.

Chu Mu asked: "The Black Snake clan suffered such heavy losses in this battle, why haven't they retreated yet?"

"Although the invading monsters were severely damaged in that battle, it was far from damaging the Black Snake clan."

Master Aoki looked towards the direction of the archipelago and could not hide his worry: "In this boundless sea, every large group of monsters can actually be regarded as a world of cultivating immortals, or in other words, a world of cultivating monsters."

"Compared to the world of immortality, the relationship between monster groups and subordinates are often more harsh and cruel."

"For example, the Black Snake Clan, in the world of Immortal Cultivation in the Vast Sea, most monks probably think that the Black Snake Clan is just the Black Snake Clan."

"But the fact is that there is a demon cultivating world led by the Black Snake clan, and under it, there are countless groups of demon beasts, large and small."

"For those groups of monster beasts led by demons with enlightened spiritual intelligence, there is a strict vassal relationship, just like in this vast world of immortality, countless forces, large and small, are all subordinate to our clan."

"For those ethnic groups who have not yet developed spiritual wisdom, they are often cruel slaves!"

"This time the Black Snake Clan invades the Immortal Realm of the Vast Sea, and every time the beast tide is set off, it is usually these enslaved monster beast groups as the core, and then they take over the countless monster beasts in this boundless sea..."

Speaking of this, Master Aoki couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Invasions of monsters like this have often happened in the past. The scale may be large or small, but it is often initiated by the major groups of monsters."

"After all, there is no end to the vast sea, and the monsters are also endless. After a long period of reproduction, they will eventually reach the corresponding limit."

"At this time, either the major monster groups are fighting each other, or they are invading the vast sea of ​​immortality..."

"Many times, monks like us can only be beaten passively. If we fight back excessively, it will often lead to the alliance of other monster groups in the vast sea..."

"The dividing line between the inner and outer seas can be said to be the tacit understanding our clan has formed with the surrounding monster groups after having been based in the southern border for tens of thousands of years. Countless ancestors have fought monsters."

Chu Mu frowned and asked, "In other words, even if we repel the Black Snake clan this time, we still can't..."

"right."

Master Aoki nodded: "The outer sea can be developed, but it cannot be developed with a large-scale battle. It can only maintain some insignificant strongholds as before."

"If we exceed this limit, I'm afraid we won't be facing the Black Snake clan alone..."

Chu Mu seemed to be hesitant: "The waters surrounding the Vast Sea Immortal Realm can be considered a large group of monster beasts, including the Black Snake Clan and the Jiaolong Clan, right?"

"To the north of the Vast Sea Cultivation Realm, there is the Great Chu Cultivation Realm, the southwestern countries, and the Xingluo Grassland..."

"If one day, the Vast Sea monster tribe invades in large numbers, and our Vast Sea Cultivation Realm cannot stop it, I'm afraid other major cultivation realms will not sit idly by, right?"

Chu Mu was slightly startled, and his face suddenly looked a little strange.

If it really comes to that time, the probability of sitting idly by is obviously not great.

Even if there is a civil strife in the Great Chu, it will probably be put aside for the time being to fight against the monsters together.

But if he remembered correctly, this Vast Sea turmoil was...the trick of the Changsheng Sect in secret.

Even, in order to prevent the Vast Sea Cultivation Realm from being chaotic enough, the Sword Dao Yuanying may come to the Vast Sea Cultivation Realm again. God knows what he is plotting in secret now, and how big a storm he will stir up...

However, the possibility of the Vast Sea monster tribes uniting together to invade the Vast Sea Cultivation Realm in large numbers seems not great, and it can even be said that there is no possibility at all!

The invasion of the Black Snake Clan into the Vast Sea was just a grudge between the clans, and for the Vast Sea Xiuxian World, the continuation of the existence of a human demon country is obviously far more beneficial than disadvantageous to the countless demon beast clans in this boundless Vast Sea.

Judging from the current attitude of the Changsheng Sect towards the Chen Family of the Vast Sea, it is possible that in the eyes of the top beings of the Changsheng Sect, the Chen Family of the Vast Sea has long ceased to be regarded as a force in the Xiuxian World.

If one day, the Changsheng Sect completely suppresses the Righteous Alliance and unifies the Great Chu, the next target is probably the human demon country of the Vast Sea Xiuxian World.

"We're here."

Just as his thoughts were flying, with the voice of Qingmu Zhenren, the flying boat, which was originally flying calmly, suddenly shook, and the almost turbulent scanning fluctuations scanned the flying boat several times without concealing its inside and outside, and then it barely dissipated.

At the same time, the flying boat also sank into the formation of the Demon Suppression Islands. Until this time, the full picture of the Demon Suppression Islands was completely revealed to Chu Mu.

The islands are like chessboards, and the distribution patterns of the islands can be clearly seen between the densely populated islands. The spiritual veins and earth veins that were artificially migrated can all be seen flickering between the islands.

"Using the islands as a formation..."

Chu Mu raised his eyebrows, as if he was a little surprised.

The artificial islands are located according to the orientation of the formation, and then the spiritual veins are migrated and the earth veins are pulled to connect the densely populated islands from the terrain.

The final result is a nearly semi-natural formation.

Although it was only a few glances, the general principle and structure of this formation had already flashed in Chu Mu's mind.

There are many types of formations, and the combination and arrangement of various formation prohibition inscriptions, and even the methods of setting up the formation, are countless.

It is also very difficult to distinguish which is better.

But there is one thing, in terms of formations, it is almost recognized as the best.

That is, the more natural the formation is, or in other words, the formation that originates from heaven and earth, the closer it is to heaven and earth, the stronger the power and magic of the formation will be!

Therefore, every city defense formation, or a formation that protects or suppresses a region, often relies on the terrain created by heaven and earth, such as the earth veins and spirit veins.

This formation in front of us is even more thorough.

Everything is man-made, but in the end, man-made is natural.

The formation master who arranged this formation is obviously a master with skills close to Taoism. He can make man-made natural in this way and support the arrangement of such a huge formation...

There is no doubt that there is only one possibility, that there is a formation master in the Nascent Soul Realm in the Hanhai Xiuxian Realm!

"This formation was set up by a Yuanying senior of our clan. This time, the restoration of the ancient soldier puppets will be presided over by this senior."

Qingmu Zhenren was a little envious: "This time, if you can make a breakthrough in the restoration of the ancient soldier puppets, you may have a great opportunity..."

"Then I'll take your good words."

Chu Mu chuckled, seemingly relaxed, but a haze flashed in his eyes.

"This senior of our clan is somewhat similar to you, and was once a cultivator of Da Chu. Later, he condensed the dragon bloodline in our clan's Hualong Pool..."

Qingmu Zhenren carefully instructed Chu Mu on relevant matters. He obviously attached great importance to recommending Chu Mu to repair the ancient soldier puppets.

Chu Mu was silent, not responding to one or two words, and most of his attention was on the Zhenyao Islands.

He knew something before coming.

There are a total of 108 islands in the Zhenyao Islands, including 36 large islands and 72 small islands, which are hidden in the meaning of Tiangang Disha.

Thirty-six of the large islands are guarded by the Chen family's own cultivators. It is said that they are also the core of the formation. To prevent any accidents, non-Chen family members are strictly prohibited from entering.

The seventy-two small islands are guarded by large and small forces in the vast sea of ​​immortal cultivation.

After he formed the elixir, he met this Qingmu Zhenren for the first time. After learning that he would expand the Zhenjie Pavilion, he received a conscription order issued by the Chen family to recruit Zhenjie Pavilion to fight against the invasion of monsters.

However, he refused it temporarily on the grounds that he had just formed the elixir.

Although he refused, the conscription order was issued without doubt.

He could refuse, but Zhenjie Pavilion could not refuse.

Under his orders, some cultivators of Zhenjie Pavilion had already entered the Zhenyao Islands, and were responsible for the garrison of Disha Island, one of the seventy-two small islands, with several forces.

The island he was on was Tianji Island, one of the thirty-six major islands. In the past, only the cultivators of the Chen family could enter. But now, he had set foot on it...
