After releasing the strange air around the bone mirror, Li An immediately released a creature from the immortal coffin. This was a giant octopus, and each of its tentacles was dozens of meters long.
Li An asked the octopus to open its mouth and swallow him into its belly——
Then he drove the octopus and dived into the gravel on the seabed. His aura had merged with the octopus and he hid——
According to Li An's estimation, if it really works, strange creatures will arrive here soon.
Li An's first goal is to observe and confirm the identity of this group of people.
The second goal is to find a way to contact the other party.
In the future, all forces of Dao Sect will be destroyed, and only by relying on the strange can they survive. In this case, it is safest to find a backer for yourself in advance and join them.
Only in this way can you inquire about the situation in the foreign land and find the direct descendants of Madam Yi.
He hid in the gravel, the octopus breathed quietly, and the sea water was constantly filtered out from the octopus's gills.
This octopus is very ordinary. It was carefully selected by Li An. It has no other characteristics except that it is a little big. It is not a powerful spiritual beast, so it is the safest and not easy to attract attention.
Seven or eight hours have passed.
The fluctuations of the war in the outside world continue to come. Even at the bottom of the deep sea tens of thousands of meters, it can be felt that the people of Dao Zong and other forces should still be fighting.
"Hmm? Here it comes——"
Finally, through the perception of the octopus, Li An sensed the approach of the strange creatures. It was a huge black sphere that sneaked from thousands of meters under the water. Judging from the direction, it seemed to come out of the foggy sea!
The sphere quickly arrived at the bone mirror. One of the doors opened and several strange creatures walked out.
These strange creatures look similar to humans. The only difference is that their skin is gray and there are many rotten spots on their bodies. The middle-aged strange spirit led by them picked up the bone mirror and checked it repeatedly, then waved his hand, and immediately the seven or eight strange spirits around him quickly dived into the surrounding sea.
They are looking for the source of that strange air.
Li An became nervous and hid all his auras.
In the sea, there were several powerful spirit beasts, which were directly captured by these spirits, searched their souls, and refined on the spot. The terrifying divine thoughts swept over the octopus where Li An was hiding, making the octopus stiff and unable to move.
Those spirits blocked the surrounding sea area of hundreds of thousands of miles and searched inside and outside several times!
"Catch all the living beings, search their souls, and find out why this aura appears here!"
The leading spirit spoke in a deep voice!
After waiting for so many years, there is finally a little trace, which must not be let go--
But, that is, at this moment.
"Huh? No, there is also an abnormal movement in another area!"
At this time, a young man next to him suddenly took out a gray jade talisman, which emitted light and a coordinate.
"Could it be that Madam Yi just passed by here, and now she has arrived at another place?"
The young spirit looked at the middle-aged spirit. The middle-aged spirit stared at the jade talisman, his gray pupils shrank slightly, and said: "Shanqing, you stay here. Since Madam Yi has appeared here once, she may not appear a second time. I will take people to chase her--"
A young man who was slightly behind opened his mouth wide when he heard this and said: "Ah? I, stay here?"
He looked a little ugly. After all, if he could find Madam Yi, it would be a great achievement, but if he stayed here, he would miss this great achievement!
There is nothing special about this sea area. Madam Yi would appear here repeatedly? It is impossible.
The middle-aged spirit said lightly: "Do you have any objection?"
The young man looked ugly, but finally bowed his head and said: "Yes, sir--"
The middle-aged spirit led everyone into the sphere.
Before closing the hatch, a young man stuck his head out and looked at the young man who stayed behind, saying: "Haha, Gong Shanqing, be careful, your cultivation is so weak, don't let the ants in this world find you, otherwise, when you die, no one will collect your body... Hahaha..."
The hatch closed, and the ball quickly went away.
Gong Shanqing stayed where he was, clenched his fists, his eyes full of hatred, and roared angrily: "You are bullying too much, isn't it bullying the ancestor of my lineage who died in battle... Damn it, when I was glorious, you were just dogs raised by my Gong family!"
"I will make you pay sooner or later!"
He turned around, his anger did not stop, and he drove the weird air angrily, bombarding the sea in all directions, and a large number of water spirit beasts around suffered disasters, died on the spot, and no bones were left.
Even Li An, who was hiding in the seabed, was scared. Damn it, this kid is crazy... Killing randomly, don't let it get to your head.
However, thanks to this guy's reckless attack, the octopus quickly absorbed a wisp of strange air from the sea water. Li An took it and touched the jade pendant given by Madam Yi, and there was no movement.
Enemy!
Li An confirmed the identity of these people.
He drove the octopus away quietly, fearing that he would be bombarded by the unprovoked disaster caused by this guy, but fortunately, this strange creature stopped quickly.
Li An was relieved.
"Hmm? When this person attacked just now, the strange air spread quickly, and there seemed to be an inexplicable force of heaven and earth in the ocean, restricting his attack."
Through observation, Li An keenly sensed that this world in the spiritual world seemed to be rejecting strange creatures!
Yes, when the fairy wind rose and fell above the South China Sea and the storm came, the great way of heaven and earth was affected and could not work, so strange creatures would appear at that time. On weekdays, strange creatures almost hibernate in the deep sea and rarely appear.
If Li An hadn't set up a bait, I'm afraid these strange creatures wouldn't appear now.
Under normal circumstances, the other party's actions are restricted-
Li An had an idea in his mind!
...
The man waited here bored.
Li An also stared at him and waited.
Time flew by, and soon more than a month passed. The fluctuations of the battle on the sea surface had gradually subsided, and this strange creature still stayed here.
Li An thought for a while. This person was abandoned by his companions and should stay here for a long time...
From the situation of this person's previous actions, it was not a strange immortal, but just a strange creature in the Mahayana period.
Li An was sure to deal with this person!
He had a plan in his mind, so he drove the octopus away quietly.
It took half a month and hundreds of thousands of miles away for Li An to get out of the octopus's belly. With a move of spiritual power, the stench on his body disappeared.
His figure changed, turning into a middle-aged man, and then he followed the sea surface. Soon, he arrived in front of the defense line set up by Dao Zong.
As Li An expected, Dao Zong's defense line was held. The riots outside were leaderless. Although they caused a great impact, they were useless in the end!
In fact, as long as the super powers such as Brahma Sect and Five Elements Sect have not expressed their opinions and are still negotiating with Dao Zong, there is no way to turn the world upside down here!
"Let us go in, the opportunity belongs to everyone--"
Li An roared and rushed to the defense line of Ziwu Reef of Dao Zong, which had been gradually repaired. A terrifying light blasted out. Li An tried his best to stop it, but was still blown away directly--
"Don't overestimate your own ability..."
"A month of attack didn't get in... Dao Zong is too strong."
"Wait, I don't believe that other powerful forces can sit back and watch Dao Zong take all this!"
Many people who were secretly watching spoke up.
And Li An landed accurately in a certain sea area...
He sank quickly.
During the sinking process, the demonic energy on his body slowly emanated, and even carried a trace of weirdness...
In the deep sea, a young man who was meditating suddenly opened his gray eyes and stared at Li An. He waved his hand, and Li An, who had sunk to the bottom of the water, floated in front of him.
Gong Shanqing looked at the injured Li An with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He put his hand on Li An's chest and slowly injected weird power into him. Not long after, Li An had faintly woke up. Seeing the person in front of him, he couldn't help but be shocked: "You... a weird creature?!"
He subconsciously wanted to escape.
"Haha, you want to practice our alien method, but you want to escape when you really see us?"
Gong Shanqing sneered, and as soon as he made a move, the weird air had spread all around, trapping Li An.
Li An's face was grim, "You... Aren't you trapped in a foreign land? How did you get out..."
"Who can trap us? Just these ants in the spirit world?"
Gong Shanqing was very disdainful, then stared at Li An and said: "Boy, have you ever been in contact with Madam Yi?!"
His eyes were cold.
When he examined Li An just now, he clearly felt that Li An's body had absorbed some strange air, but the quality was not high, at best it was just mixed air, but there was a trace of it, which seemed very similar to Madam Yi's.
So, he chose to save Li An.
"Mrs. Yi?"
Li An was at a loss: "Who is this?"
Gong Shanqing turned and asked: "Where do you absorb the strange energy from?"
"All from the South China Sea... At the beginning, it was the Giant Tomb Island."
"Giant Tomb Island?!"
Gong Shanqing narrowed his eyes and seemed to be very concerned: "Have you seen the Giant Tomb Island?"
Li An nodded and said: "Before the first great change in the world, there was a Taoist parrot who found the Giant Tomb Island. At that time, all the major forces of the Taoist Sect and the Demon Sect came. As a demon cultivator, I naturally came to watch the battle. That battle was fought The sky collapsed and the earth split, and the Giant Tomb Island was finally sunk..."
"I failed to contact the core battlefield, and could only absorb some strange air on the periphery."
Gong Shanqing seemed to be a little excited, "Quick, where is the Giant Tomb Island, take me there--"
Li An shook his head: "Sir, you don't know that the sea area where the Giant Tomb Island appeared that year is very far away from here, hundreds of millions of miles away. In addition, after the battle that year, the Giant Tomb Island was sunk, it was mostly drifting with the sea current, and no one knows where it went. It's probably very difficult to find it again..."
Gong Shanqing frowned immediately.
This place is not far from the Misty Sea, they dare to come here, but going deep into the spirit world...
Very dangerous!
After all, the Heavenly Dao of the Spirit World still exists, and before destroying the Heavenly Dao here, people from foreign lands dare not easily act.
"Sir, you saved my life, I am willing to serve you, I will take you there?"
Li An said. Gong Shanqing thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "No, I won't go for now, wait a minute."
"What's your name?"
Li An said, "I'm Gu Fan."
Li An made up a name.
"Gu Fan, very good, do you know that the magic skills in your world are actually just a simplified version of the weird method?"
Li An said, "I've heard of Gu Fan."
"Do you want the advanced practice method in the weird?"
Gong Shanqing looked at him with a smile.
Li An bowed and said, "Gu Fan is willing to go through fire and water for you, please teach me the immortal method--" Gong Shanqing said, "This is not difficult. You are loyal. I will accept you as my follower in this world. How about it?" "This is the strange air breathing method. You can try to practice it first. It's a gift for you." He pointed out, and a strange air cultivation method appeared in Li An's mind. He was overjoyed and grateful: "Thank you, sir, thank you, sir. From now on, Gu Fan will die for you!" "Well, go and help me do something." Gong Shanqing said, "Leave this place and go back to the South China Sea. Carefully check the location of the Giant Tomb Island. If you find it, I can teach you more advanced methods in the future, and I can also give you a strange Dao mark, so that you can truly become a strange creature!" "Gu Fan obeys!"
Li An agreed, and then flattered his face and said: "My lord, my cultivation is too low now, I want to go to the Misty Sea first to find some immortal materials..."
"Immortal materials?"
Gong Shanqing sneered, "I advise you not to touch those things, otherwise you will regret it later!"
Li An was stunned and said: "Then... Can I enter the foreign land to find some strange air?"
He was afraid that Gong Shanqing would think too much, so he explained: "Back then, Daoling Parrot, Shangguan Shengxian, Xie Wang and others all got the strange Dao traces in the Giant Tomb Island. They must also be looking for the Giant Tomb Island. Besides, Dao Sect and major forces are rampant in the South China Sea. I am afraid that I will not be able to protect myself if I meet them!"
Gong Shanqing was quite annoyed. He understood that Li An said so much just to get some benefits from him. He was really a greedy person.
But he was already bullied in the Gong family. How could he give Li An anything?
"Five years later, the foreign land will descend into the sea of fog once. If you find some clues at that time, I can allow you to enter the foreign land and give you some opportunities."
Another pie in the sky.
Li An believed it and said, "Okay, I will do it now-"
"Wait-"
Gong Shanqing suddenly called him, put his hand on Li An's forehead, and with the strange power running, he pulled out a wisp of Li An's soul and kept it in his hand. He snorted coldly and said, "Do your work at ease."
Handle!
Li An's face was ugly, but he didn't say anything. He just bowed. When he was leaving, he suddenly said, "By the way, if I find something, how can I contact you?"
Gong Shanqing threw a gray jade pendant to Li An and said, "Use this thing to communicate with me."
Li An took it with great care and turned away.
It was a long time after he left. Gong Shanqing took out a strange pendant from under his neck. The pendant looked like it was made of a dried human tongue.
"Well, the Tongue of Truth didn't react. This kid didn't lie to me..."
If Li An told a lie, the Tongue of Truth would be able to detect the fluctuations in his soul. That's why he didn't search Li An's soul.
"If this kid can really find the Giant Tomb Island for me... then my passive situation in the clan can be reversed."
He was looking forward to it.
...
After leaving.
Li An left quickly and then restored his true body.
Success!
He was right!
He contacted Gong Shanqing just to bet that the strange aura he deliberately revealed could attract the other party's attention.
Gong Shanqing was bound by the heavenly way of this world and couldn't stay away. In this case, he would definitely choose to take Li An for his own use.
In this way, Li An officially connected with the strange creatures. In the future, whether to follow the Gong family directly or find other backers, at least there is room for choice.
"The strange formula given by Gong Shanqing is far inferior to the Immortal Heavenly Demon Art. The Immortal Heavenly Demon Art is probably also very strange..."
At the same time, Li An also made a comparison.
The Yuanling Honglu Art, the Blood and Flesh Furnace Art, and the Yin-Yang Demon Furnace Art are all extremely powerful techniques, and the Immortal Heavenly Demon Art after the integration can absorb and utilize even the strange air...
Moreover, until now, the only one in the entire spiritual world who has truly mastered the Immortal Heavenly Demon Art should be Li An!
He is the only one who has the three skills in one. Shangguan Xiaoxiao, Shangguan Shengxian and other demon sect leaders have not experienced this process. Although there are certain records of the Immortal Heavenly Demon Art in the demon sect, they are definitely not complete.
After they obtained the strange Dao traces, they also blessed the magic skills, perhaps breaking the restrictions, and at the same time
He practiced the three major techniques at the same time, but the three major techniques are only the three major techniques after all, and it is difficult to integrate them into the Immortal Heavenly Demon Technique!
…
He hid the jade talisman given by Gong Shanqing in the outside world, and then went back to the Giant Tomb Island and met Madam Yi. He reported to Madam Yi that he had found a bone mirror, but he did not dare to move it lightly, and asked Madam Yi whether it was laid by her direct descendants.
Madam Yi solemnly told him that this was an enemy and he was not allowed to approach and must be careful, but she did not tell him too much about the Gong family.
This made Li An's plan to get the relevant information about the Gong family from Madam Yi fail. This woman is very cautious!
Li An immediately left, walked out of the tomb pit, and quickly moved away.
After leaving the Giant Tomb Island, he hurriedly took off his shoes.
On the soles of his shoes, there was already a little mud from the Giant Tomb Island!
In fact, the main purpose of his return to the Giant Tomb Island was this!
Gong Shanqing wanted clues about the Giant Tomb Island, so he had to have something to continue to gain Gong Shanqing's trust...
Of course, he was not in a hurry to go back to Gong Shanqing, so he let him wait!
Five years later, when the alien land came, let's talk about it.
Li An's goal was to enter the alien land at that time.
It was very dangerous to rashly enter the alien land, but with Gong Shanqing leading the way, he would be much safer, and he could also take the opportunity to understand the situation in the alien land, and maybe find the direct descendants of Madam Yi along the way.
It can be said that all he did was to prepare for entering the alien land!
He returned to the vicinity of Dao Zong's defense line, but did not go directly to Fenghuo Island. Instead, he relied on his own understanding of Dao Zong's formation to sneak close to the edge of the neighboring island-Fenglei Island, and then pretended to be seriously injured and unconscious, and floated along the sea to Fenglei Island...
Soon, he was discovered and salvaged by the people of Fenglei Island.
The Taoist people of Fenglei Island treated him. Half a month later, Li An woke up. When faced with other people's questions, Li An's answer was very simple. In the battle a few months ago, Ziwu Reef was destroyed and Li An was knocked away by a Hedao cultivator...
No suspicion was aroused.
After all, Li An's strength was obviously incomplete Hedao, which was normal.
Li An was quickly sent back to Fenghuo Island.
Because Li An was sent back by Fenglei Island, he did not arouse suspicion on Fenghuo Island.
This was exactly why Li An went to Fenglei Island. If he went back to Fenghuo Island directly, it would be easy to arouse suspicion, but after passing through Fenglei Island, the people of Fenghuo Island would be much less vigilant...
Smooth return.
Next, Li An was once sent to rest at Ziwu Reef.
After this great battle, Fenghuo Island was devastated, with corpses everywhere. Many cultivators from other forces were killed, and the bodies of Dao Sect disciples were also mixed in...
This battle was very tragic. It is said that there were also unusual movements in the foreign land. At that time, in order to stop the strange creatures in the foreign land... a supreme immortal died.
On the island, the morale of Dao Sect disciples was a little low.
"Why do we have to do this... keep defending and be enemies with the entire spiritual world?"
"Even within our Dao Sect, we are not allowed to become immortals... Why not in the Golden Age?"
"Can we defend it..."
One battle after another made many disciples at the bottom of Dao Sect waver.
All this was within Li An's expectations.
Dao Sect struggled to hold on... most of the time it would end in tragedy.
Dao Sect was right, but it was not necessarily possible to do the right thing.
In this way, the days went by, and two years passed in the blink of an eye.
"Many cultivators from the outside world have come!"
"The warships of the Five Elements Sect are coming!"
"Two Arhats from the Brahma Sect have appeared and asked to go to the Misty Sea..."
On this day, the Misty Sea, which had been calm for two years, suddenly became tense!
Li An got the news quickly.
The negotiations between Dao Sect and other major forces...
The talks broke down!
"Dao Sect produced various evidences, and the leaders of the major forces believed it! At this time, it is best for everyone not to become immortals and to preserve the spiritual world. As a result... the major forces turned around and continued to ask to enter the Misty Sea. Those major forces claimed that the foreign lands were threatening the spiritual world, so they should take the initiative to attack..."
"But in fact, according to the secret report, many leaders of the major forces, after believing what Dao Sect said, became desperate and prepared to flee!"
Xiang Yuntian sent Li An the news from the top, and his words were full of pessimism:
"We have tried our best to convince the leaders and those in power of the major forces to They will share the same hatred for the enemy, take the overall situation into consideration, and stick together, but after they learned about the danger of the spirit world, they tried to go crazy and take advantage of the moment to get enough immortal materials and then escape... Those high-level people are ready to abandon the spirit world! "
"These beasts who deserve to be killed have received all the offerings from the people of the spirit world, and all the good things in the spirit world are controlled by them. On weekdays, this sect master and that powerful person are all in glory, but when the spirit world is in danger and the war is coming, they are ready to run away by themselves, or even ignore it. Their actions will accelerate the demise of the spirit world..."
"Deserve to be killed, deserve to be killed!"
Xiang Yuntian was extremely indignant.
After reading the secret letter, Li An sighed.
This is how the world is. The high-ranking rulers usually plunder most of the resources in this world, but they will never give up their lives to protect this world.
When the war comes and the chaos comes... If you can win and there is no place to escape, it means that the rulers come up with ideas, the rich pay money, and the lower class pays their lives.
If they can't win, the upper echelons will always be the first to flee.
Li An doesn't even need to think about it. Now many high-level people in the spirit world must have quietly begun to transfer assets, and even want to take the last bite, that is, the vast amount of immortal materials guarded by Dao Zong in the foggy sea...
Human greed is nothing more than that!
Moreover, even if Dao Zong knew this, it would be useless. Tell these truths to the lower echelons of the major forces? No, will the lower echelons believe Dao Zong or the upper echelons of their sects?
To affect the interests of the upper echelons is like affecting their lives.
To change the concepts of the lower echelons is like digging up their ancestral graves.
It's unnecessary. Those who should sacrifice should sacrifice, and those who should die should die... There is no savior in this world.
It's even uncertain whether Dao Zong is a solid block. Do so many people have the same thoughts as the high-level people of other forces?
There is no lack of spineless people in any force, it's just a matter of more or less.
...
Outside Ziwu Reef, in the sky, there are more and more warships, densely packed.
The disciples of Dao Sect were extremely angry, feeling that they were backstabbed by the forces of the entire spiritual world.
The top leaders of Dao Sect finally made a decision - to fight with all their strength!
The masters, elders, elite disciples, and all the supreme immortals of the 108 main peaks swarmed in and entered the Eight Diagrams Locking Heaven Array of Dao Sect!
"We, Dao Sect, are willing to make the whole world our enemy, and we will not change our mind -"
Dao Sect's Supreme Ku Yuanzi issued an unyielding and sonorous battle sound!
The whole of Dao Sect shared the same hatred for the enemy, and countless disciples were ready to die.
A storm... is about to hit.
