The Xu family follows Taoism and seeks longevity

After several days in a row, no monsters were attracted to the formation. Xu Zhiyu understood that no more monsters would pass by this place in a short time.

There was no nostalgia in his eyes. With a wave of his backhand, mana was injected into the formation disk, and all the formation flags on the bottom of the sea flew back upside down.

As the formation was lifted, all the fog in the nearby sea area dissipated in an instant.

He then paused and took out the complete chart. After checking it carefully, he took out the second-order high-grade sea ship and rushed north to the hinterland of the Yellow Sand Sea.

He has decided that in the next two months, no matter whether he finds a suitable island or not, he will set off and rush back, otherwise the God Transformation Ceremony will be delayed, which is the top priority.

Moreover, after he arrived at the Taiyang Building headquarters, he had other things to do, so he couldn't rush there on a tight schedule. If there was a slight delay, it would be too late to regret it.

A ship with a green shimmer all over its body was sailing rapidly on the sea. Where it passed, the waves formed many ripples, and then returned to calm.

If you look closely, you will find that this ship is Xu Zhiyu's.

At this time, he was concentrating on looking at the sea in front of him on the left, because according to the marks on the chart, there was a large island, and there were resources on it, but it was not clearly stated what they were.

Suddenly, in his spiritual consciousness, a third-level low-grade sea ship appeared. The incoming ship was traveling in the opposite direction to him and was about to collide with it.

For safety reasons, he slightly adjusted his sailing direction to avoid a head-on collision, which would be too much for his ship.

When the distance was still more than ten miles away, Xu Zhiyu discovered a skinny fifth-level monk from the Purple Mansion standing on the deck of the ship. He saw that his waist was covered with more than ten storage bags.

Moreover, at the stern of his boat, he was dragging the body of a strange fish that was four to five feet long and had been half eaten.

Different from the webs of ordinary fish, the monster fish has four sharp claws on its body and a thick layer of armor on its abdomen. Only some lavender patterns can be vaguely seen on its back. This is where the most eaten food is found. serious.

The head is like a fish or a snake, and there is a blood hole the size of a normal monk's head on the top of the head. There is a lot of unknown liquid flowing out of it, dripping into the sea, and there is an unknown thing on the nose of the strange fish. The thin rope made of material was passed through the nostrils, and the other end was tied to the stern deck of the seagoing ship.

If you move your eyes back, you will find that there are many second-order sea beasts following this ship. They must have been attracted by the smell of the strange fish carcass dragged behind the ship.

However, the monk who controlled the ship in front was very smart, and his speed was neither too fast nor too slow, allowing the fish following behind to occasionally take a bite of the carcass of the strange fish, but at the same time not letting them eat more.

Xu Zhiyu looked at this strange scene and thought for a moment. He found that the strange fish used as bait by the monks should be a sea monster called the thin-scaled fish, and judging from its size, it was at least a third-level low-grade fish. No wonder it was so There are many second-level sea fish that are going to chase food like crazy.

The two ships passed each other several hundred feet apart, and he didn't pay too much attention to it. This place was in the belly of the Yellow Sand Sea, and there were many monks who came here to explore, and they would basically encounter them in the past few days.

At the beginning, he would inevitably be nervous when encountering such a situation, and would be prepared to face the enemy. However, after these few days of experience, he found that the monks who came here seemed to be more interested in sea beasts, and it was very rare for monks to kill each other. , basically ignoring each other, you do your thing, I do mine.

Banyue Island, this island is pointed at both ends, wide in the middle, and has a semicircular shape, just like a bay of half-circle moon, hence its name.

This island is about two thousand miles long and six hundred miles wide at its widest point. In this huge yellow sand sea area, it is among the largest in size.

Xu Zhiyu came here to inspect this place and see if it was a suitable place for a family to thrive.

After approaching Banyue Island, he did not go up directly. Instead, he used his flying sword to look down at the entire island to make sure that there were no other monks present and to observe the general situation.

"Forests, mountains, plains, rivers, there are all kinds of landforms. The coast is very steep, and there are reefs in many places. Normal sea monsters cannot pass through here. The most wonderful thing is that within a few dozen miles around this island , there is actually no sea beast whose cultivation level exceeds the second level.

Now it depends on whether there is a spiritual vein on this island. If there is, then it can be settled. "

After flying and inspecting for a while, he landed on the rocks near the island, and then thought about the next matter of exploring the island's spiritual veins.

To be honest, finding spiritual veins is really not easy.

Generally, the discovery of spiritual veins is full of chance, such as opening a cave, or hunting down monsters, especially the latter. Monsters seem to be born with the talent to find spiritual veins.

Some people may ask, isn't it enough to just stand there and sense the spiritual energy to determine whether there is spiritual veins? In fact, things are definitely not that simple.

The formation process of spiritual veins is very complicated and takes a very long time. Even if it is really gestated, it will hide itself well instead of spreading spiritual energy wantonly and attracting the attention of monks or monsters.

Even if there is a spiritual vein on the island where he is standing, if it is not discovered and then the spiritual energy is guided to the surface by arranging an array, even if Jindan Zhenren comes, he will not be able to directly determine it. Does this island have spiritual veins?

In the world of cultivating immortals, there is a specialized art of cultivating immortals called soul-seeking. Monks who can master this skill can be called soul-seeking masters.

They usually use special methods and then use various special instruments to determine whether there is spiritual energy in a place.

Of course, Xu Zhiyu is not a so-called spirit hunter, but before he set off this time, he knew what the main purpose of his trip was, so he spent a lot of spirit stones and purchased several magical tools to assist in finding spiritual veins.

After standing on the rock and thinking for a moment, he stretched out his right hand, and a compass-like instrument appeared in his hand. On the surface of the compass, there were various heavenly stems, earthly branches, five elements and eight trigrams, which looked very complicated.

Then he took out two more middle-grade spiritual stones, put them into a card slot on the back of the compass instrument, and then began to chant the specially learned spell in his mouth.

"Kala Uma is so miserable!"

When all the processes were completed, the compass instrument roared, and then the pointer on it kept shaking, and finally pointed quietly to a direction on the island. "Haha, it seems that the spirit stone is not in vain. This thing is quite reliable. I found it as soon as I activated it."

Xu Zhiyu was so happy that he jumped into the air and flew towards the place indicated by the compass. But when he was about to approach his destination, the direction indicated by the compass suddenly changed and pointed to another place.

"It's okay. It's normal to make a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes sometimes, let alone a magic weapon."

He didn't take it seriously, adjusted his direction according to the compass, and still flew forward happily.

Unexpectedly, when he was approaching his destination for the second time, the compass direction changed again.

"."

In this way, he basically flew over the entire island according to the direction indicated by the compass, but in the end he still gained nothing.

What's even more annoying is that in the end, he actually took him back to the reef where he first stood.

"What kind of crappy thing is this? Are you sincerely trying to fool people?"

Seeing Xu Zhiyu, who had been tossing for a long time and then returned to the starting point, was furious. He felt that he had been tricked by a magic weapon, and he was about to throw it into the sea and leave.

But after a second thought, he gave up the idea. He decided to take this thing back, find the store where it was originally sold to him, and then smash it against their sign, so as to relieve his anger.

But how to find the spiritual veins next stumped him again, so he took out the complete sea chart and checked it again, hoping to find any clues.

In the past, when he looked at the charts, he was always in the cabin. Although Zhenren Li who followed him was responsible for protecting his safety, he paid attention to the situation around him and did not inquire into his privacy. Therefore, Zhenren Li did not know Xu Zhiyu. There is still such a chart, but now he knows it.

"I didn't expect, I didn't expect that in order to please this Daoist Xu, who is closely related to his master, the big shopkeeper is willing to spend so much money and give away the fruits of decades of hard work in this building so easily. Seriously What a great courage, such a big hand.

Next, I will try my best to protect his safety, so that after I return, I can report back to the big shopkeeper. However, if I can have direct contact with Daoist Xu, I will let him know that I have done a lot of things secretly. , this is the best, but this will violate the order of the big shopkeeper, so should we do this? It’s really embarrassing! "

Li Zhenren sighed in his heart. He had followed him all the way and he had tried his best. Now the secret protection seems to be no longer enough for him. He is trying his best to show his face and gain greater benefits.

When Xu Zhiyu took out the chart, Zhuang Zhenjun, who was hiding in the dark, also saw this scene. In fact, if he took action, Zhenren Li would have no chance to see the true face of the chart, but he did not do that.

After following him all the way, he saw everything Mr. Li did and was very satisfied with his performance. He already regarded him as one of his own, so he no longer hid some things from him.

"Judging from Xu Xiaoyou's actions just now, he should be exploring whether there are spiritual veins on this island? But what is the use of his exploring this? Could it be that he is planning to stay here for a while and wants to temporarily open a spiritual vein here? Cave retreat?
No, there is less than a year left before the Master's God Transformation Ceremony. He must also know this and will never choose to retreat at this time. Besides, he has just broken through the second level of Zi Mansion. In a few months, it is impossible to make another breakthrough in a short period of time! "

Zhuang Zhenjun, who didn't understand Xu Zhiyu's thoughts, was confused, but after thinking about it for a moment, he was ready to help him secretly to see what he was going to do next.

"Under the plain of this island, there is also a vein of dark cloud silver essence. Dark cloud silver essence is the raw material for refining high-level magic weapons. The grade is as high as fourth-level low-grade. Although it is only a micro-ore vein, if it is fully mined, it is still worth nearly 100%. One million mid-grade spiritual stones.

However, I remember that the spiritual veins on this island are only second-order high-grade, and the location seems to be dozens of feet underground in the forest. Now I deliberately made a little noise, and then attracted him there. "

At the same time, Xu Zhiyu was still standing on the rocks thinking hard about countermeasures. He even had the urge to drill the entire island and search for spiritual veins, but he resisted in the end.

"No, since this rubbish magic weapon is unreliable, I can only rely on myself. This place is specially marked on the sea map, so even if there is no spiritual vein, there must be other precious resources. How about exploring all directions first? Fan, maybe there will be some discovery.”

Just when he made up his mind and was about to launch a comprehensive investigation, a loud noise suddenly came from the center of the island.

"Boom!"

After the explosion sounded, he immediately flew high into the sky with his sword, and found that the place where the explosion occurred was in a forest, and the explosion also caused a fire. The raging fire shot up into the sky with bursts of black smoke. Seeing this, he did not hesitate and stepped on it. Flying sword, head straight towards the forest.

When he pressed the flying sword and came to the scene of the fire, he understood the cause of the explosion. It turned out to be a second-level high-grade bird that was seriously injured by someone. It couldn't hold on while flying through the forest. It fell straight down and then hit the ground hard. This was the source of the explosion.

The fire occurred because the wings of the birds rubbed against the trees in the forest during their fall, and then the fire broke out. This can be clearly inferred from the wings of the birds that are still burning.

Looking at the lifeless bird that had smashed a huge hole into the ground, Xu Zhiyu went over and chopped off its head. Then he scanned it with his spiritual consciousness and found that there was no inner elixir, so he shook his head and prepared to leave the place.

But just when he was about to turn around, he very keenly detected the existence of a trace of spiritual energy.

"Ok?"

After repeated sensations, he discovered the source of the spiritual energy, summoned a flying sword, and inserted the bird's body out. Then he saw that the huge pit under him was actually hollow, with a deep passage winding all the way. Downward, and the spiritual energy comes out of this channel.

"Hehehe, my luck is a bit too good. I searched hard and couldn't find it, but by some strange combination of circumstances, I found traces of the spiritual vein. It seems that God is still looking after me."

With a few chuckles, he jumped down, flew directly into the passage, and then kept going downwards. Finally, sixty feet above the ground, he found a second-level high-grade spiritual vein that was about to advance.

"Okay, okay, this is my Xu family's foothold in the yellow sand sea from now on. After participating in the God Transformation Ceremony and returning to the family, I will discuss this matter with my ancestors and grandfather."

Xu Zhiyu was very happy that the most important purpose of this trip was achieved. Finally, he chose a place with the strongest spiritual energy to start meditating. He had already begun to prepare for the return trip. (End of chapter)
