Chapter 541
Just the day before all the monks worked together to crack the formation of the central palace, in the northwest direction, beside the surging Panyi River.

A five-foot-long sailboat ran aground on the shallows near the shore.

The canvas of the sail has been torn into several pieces.Some are drooping weakly on the deck, and some are still swaying in the wind on the mast, which is covered with countless holes, as if telling a tragic battle.

On the flat sandy ground tens of feet away, a handsome man with a straight nose and thin lips was sitting on the ground in a daze, his face full of grief.

There were several big holes in the purple robe, revealing the new wounds inside, but he didn't notice it.

In front of his eyes, there are two corpses of a man and a woman.

The woman among them had her eyes closed tightly and her eyelashes were slender, as if she had just fallen asleep.

However, a fist-sized blood hole in the lower abdomen, as well as the blood that had already dried up, reminded others that it was this fatal wound that took the life of this beautiful woman.

The man looked at the woman's white and flawless face, distraught:

"Senior Sister Nangong, I, I shouldn't let you, I..."

The voice was choked and intermittent.

A square-faced young man in the same attire came over, knelt down beside the man, and softly advised, "Young Master, you cannot be resurrected after death. Let's, let's think about how to cross the river?"

"Crossing the river, crossing the river!" the man muttered to himself, suddenly laughed, and cried out sadly: "Why do you want to cross the river! We can go directly to the outer mountain through the teleportation array, but we just want to teleport to the inner layer, saying we want to Cover up people's eyes and ears, and then do something to cross the river..."

"The result!" He pointed to the two corpses on the ground, his face distorted: "We lost two people in less than a mile! Senior Sister Nangong... We only have six people left, how can we cross the river? How to deal with those man-eating fish monsters?"

The face of the square-faced young man changed, and he yelled softly: "Young Master, this is an order from the King, and you have guaranteed the ticket before you come. Are you going to give up halfway now?"

The man's expression froze, as if he thought of the bold words before departure, with pain and helplessness on his face, he covered his head and said:

"Who would have thought that there are endless fish monsters in this river. How can we cross the river in this state?"

"Call everyone over and work together, there will always be a solution." The young man suggested.

The man was silent for a moment, and waved his hand, but his face was hopeless.

Four more people came from the sailboat, and everyone gathered into a circle.

Except for that young master, everyone's cultivation has reached the completion of foundation establishment!

The young man spoke first, with a low voice:

"Everyone, we got off to a bad start. Not only did we fail to reach one-tenth of the entire river, but we also lost two fellow disciples. This is all my fault, Qi Xingwu. I was too careless, I did not do my best in the investigation, and I was not prepared enough; Improper command during the battle, I neglected the other. When I return to the state of Zhou, I will plead guilty to the king and ask for punishment!"

Everyone was silent, watching the grieving junior in silence, the young master muttered a few times, but he didn't say anything.

"However, go to the opposite mountain and seize..." Qi Xingwu looked around, and after confirming that there was no one else, he lowered his voice and said, "Seize the secret treasure, this is the monarch's decree. Before we set off, each of us blew I swear, even if there is only one person left, I will finish it!"

"You said it, didn't you?"

"Yes." Someone replied in a low voice, and someone rekindled their fighting spirit and responded loudly:

"Yes!"

"Okay," Qi Xingwu nodded slightly, and continued: "Everyone, let's think of a way, how to cross this river?"

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, and after a while, discussions sounded.

"A few times ago, didn't Yunxiaozong have disciples who went to the outer mountains? How did they cross the river?" Someone asked.

"Who knows?" The other person shook his head and said, "Let's not talk about whether Yun Xiaozong will tell you, even if he does, where can you find a disciple who knows?"

Someone else speculated: "Is it because when Yun Xiaozong crossed the river, there were not so many second-order demon fish in the river?"

"It's possible," Na Shaojun also joined the discussion: "The emperor once wrote to the head of Yunxiao Zonghong asking about the situation of the Panyi River. Head Hong provided some materials in their archives, including records about this river. , did not mention any powerful demon fish."

"That's because there have been no human beings for hundreds of years, and the demon fish in the river have gradually become popular." Qi Xingwu analyzed.

"It's just," he continued, "we can't solve the problem by discussing these things. Let's think about how to cross the river."

Everyone fell silent, you looked at me, I looked at you, no one said anything.

Qi Xingwu secretly sighed.His juniors, all of them have high levels of cultivation, and their own strengths in the alchemy and talisman formations. They have been protected by the sect for so many years, and have too little experience, so that they are helpless when encountering things.

He had no choice but to continue to throw bricks and attract jade:
"Everyone, I have calculated that the first and second rank demon fish we encountered in the river just now mainly include the following types—"

"The four types of bearded dragon salmon, sword fin fish, red barbarian fish and silver scale fish."

"Among them, the sword-finned fish has wings like swords, which are unstoppable; the red barbarian fish is of the fire family, but its flames are poisonous and rotten; the silver-scaled fish is good at shooting water arrows, and they are endless. These monster fish are not enough alone. For fear, it is difficult to deal with them if they are gathered together in dozens or hundreds."

"However, the biggest threat to us is the long-bearded dragon salmon."

"The long-bearded dragon salmon has a length of several feet. It can rely on its long beard to stick to the aura shield, absorbing aura continuously and weakening the power of my defensive formation. Moreover, the monster fish is covered with scales, and it is not afraid of the five elements. It's hard to hurt, and the only way to kill it is with close combat and great strength."

"It's just that if someone rushes out of the formation, they will be surrounded by monsters again. One mistake..."

He glanced at Senior Sister Nangong who was lying quietly on the ground, and sighed deeply.

His analysis was methodical and he stated his interests and interests. Everyone echoed: "Yes, yes! What can we do?"

Some people also said: "If there is no long-bearded dragon salmon, other demon fish will not be able to break through the defense on our ship."

"We must find a way to get rid of the long-bearded dragon salmon." Someone said angrily.

Qi Xingwu looked at the chattering crowd, thinking hard.

The threat of long bearded salmon must be minimized!
Following this line of thought, a method gradually formed in his mind.

"I don't know how many bearded dragon salmon there are in this river, and they are inexhaustible, but," he stretched out his five claws, and slowly clenched them into fists:
"If we make the ferry into a fist, with second-level high-grade spirit wood protection on the top and bottom, even if the defense is broken, we can continue to persevere. What do you think?"

After these words came out, someone pondered over them carefully and couldn't help applauding loudly.

Soon, someone poured a basin of cold water: "The land in the northwest is deserted for hundreds of miles. Where can I find the second-order spirit wood? We can't dismantle the wood-type magical artifacts in our hands, right? "

"That's easy to say," Qi Xingwu smiled lightly, and took out something from his bosom, but it was another flying boat:
"For this mission, the monarch gave me a total of two second-tier airships. Let's dismantle the injured one and put it together with the one in my hand to form a turtle ship. How about it?"

The air above the Panyi River is also forbidden, and the airship cannot fly in the air, and can only be used as a ferry.The bruised sailboat was actually a flying boat.

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, and immediately applauded.

……

Just do it, two of the six people are proficient in refining, one immediately went to dismantle the old ship, and the other took the new ship, measured it carefully, and considered how to build it well.

In addition, there are those who are good at formations, take out various materials, and start to lay out new formations on the flying boat.

In these aspects, several of them are worthy of the title of elite disciples of the state of Zhou.

After a day and a night, a brand new flying boat appeared in this sandy sea.

The bottom structure of this flying boat is similar to that of a houseboat, and a layer of hull is built on top of the hull, which closes up and down like a turtle shell.

There is also a huge Chi-Ji anchor embedded in the bow, which can be used as a charge bump.The ferocious dragon head pattern is drawn under the anchor, which has a strong intimidating effect on demon fish with low IQ.

In addition, there are several mana transmission channels in the hull, which can not only attack the demon fish, but also cast spells to speed up the movement of the hull.

After the turtle boat was completed, everyone cheered and cheered, and finally had the confidence to compete with the demon fish again.

……

The six people got into the hull one by one, and under the impetus of mana, the new boat slowly sailed into the water.

On the calm river, an undercurrent suddenly surged!
Countless black, white, and red figures gathered from all directions.

After a few breaths, an impatient sword-finned fish flew out of the water and rushed towards the turtle boat. Several sharp arrows shot out from its wings and shot forward!

The sharp arrow collided with the large defense array of the turtle boat, causing waves of ripples, but the hull was safe and sound.

At the same time, several streaks of golden light came out from the turtle boat and hit the demon fish, cutting it into several sections.

Fish corpses, accompanied by a rain of blood, spilled onto the surface of the river one after another, and countless fish mouths sprang out from the bottom of the water, scrambling for each other.

At the same time, more demon fish swarmed towards them smelling the smell of blood.

The battle started instantly.

The red barbarian, dark black flames were burning all over the defensive cover, sizzling.

The silver scale fish, one water arrow after another, hit the defensive formation one after another, making a series of noises, like rain hitting plantains.

However, these threats are still within the tolerance range of the flying boat defense formation, so they are not to be feared.

The real test is the long bearded dragon salmon.

Dozens of black and white dragon salmon sprang out from the bottom of the water, and while their long beards were dancing, they were already attached to the defensive cover of the turtle boat, hanging like large and small black and white banners.

A fireball hit the demon fish, emitting a dazzling red light, and then disappeared.

The demon fish was unharmed.

Not long after, the roots of the long-bearded salmon gradually changed from transparent to light red, pink, and even deep red.

This is the result of continuous absorption of spiritual energy.

"Boom!" Half a quarter of an hour later, the spaceship's formation, like an expanding balloon, became thinner and thinner, and finally shattered.

Long bearded salmon fell into the river one after another.

The other monster fishes, like wild wolves smelling fishy smell, suddenly became fierce and manic, and each used their housekeeping skills to greet the boat continuously:

Water arrows, flames, fish arrows, ice fog...

That senior sister Nangong from yesterday rushed out under such circumstances, killed several monster fishes, covered everyone's retreat, and finally died of severe injuries.

But today, the situation is quite different.

The demon fish's attack hit the three-foot-thick spirit wood, causing countless holes, sparks, and cut marks, as if a swarm of ants devoured an elephant...

But the elephant, though bruised and bruised, remained motionless.

The monks in the ship took advantage of this time to add spirit stones and repair the formation. Not long after, a brand new defensive cover reappeared around the turtle ship.

The reason why the spirit stones are not replenished when the bearded dragon salmon absorbs the spirit energy is because the former absorbs spirit energy much faster than replenishing it, and the gain outweighs the loss.

It's better to take advantage of the rupture of the big formation and replenish it after the dragon salmon falls, which can delay more time.

With the restoration of the large array, the dragon salmon jumped out of the water again, its long whiskers hanging on the shield.

At this time, two monks who are proficient in wood-type magic used the spell of [all things grow] to make the damaged wooden shell start to repair itself.

Although it is impossible to eliminate all scars, it is possible to remedy those severely damaged areas.

Then, another half a quarter of an hour later, the formation was annihilated again.

The hull once again ushered in the attack of the storm...

Going back and forth like this, the turtle boat resisted while marching hard towards the opposite bank.

One mile, two mile, five mile...

Half an hour later, the scarred turtle boat finally reached the shore!
The six exhausted monks supported each other and stumbled out of the cabin.

They finally managed to cross this river of death!
……

At about the same time, the clouds and mists in the central palace cleared and the four doors opened.

And in the far southeast direction, there is also such a fleet, which has gone through untold hardships to reach the other side!
Five monks jumped off the boat, all of whom were in the late stage of Foundation Establishment.

The clothes are gorgeous, and the clothes are painted with complicated patterns, exuding a brilliant aura.

Ju country monk!

 PS: In the past few days, it has been a big chapter of less than [-] words, mainly about the division of plots, which happens to be the only way.Tomorrow's official transfer to the central palace is also the main plot of Panyi Mountain, so the number of words should be guaranteed.
