My cultivation is too simple

The eight-hundred-mile Erhai Lake was once a place where the disciples of Taibai Academy needed to go every month.

Most disciples will fish in the Erhai Lake for a period of time to obtain enough spiritual fish and hand them over to Taibai Academy to complete the tasks of Taibai Academy.

Some disciples from aristocratic families who don't want to waste time here will choose to train a fish servant and let the fish servant help them fish and catch a sufficient number of spiritual fish every day.

Zhouyou is one of many fish slaves.

Moreover, it was precisely because of this fish service that he embarked on the path of cultivating immortality.

When he was fishing for spiritual fish in the past, he had wondered why there was such a weird formation on the Erhai Sea. Every time he caught a spiritual fish, a trace of the angler's mana would be extracted.

Now it seems that it should be related to the stabilization of the sealing formation.

The entire Erhai Lake is a place where demons are sealed, and it is an important part of the ruins of the ancient demon clan. It is estimated that if this formation wants to operate, it will require a lot of spiritual power.

So, Taibai Academy came up with this method.

Every disciple must go to Erhai Lake to fish for spiritual fish on time and contribute his or her own magic power. This will not only strengthen the seal, but also temper the disciple's magic power and make it more condensed.

And this kind of exercise that doesn't seem to have much effect is actually of great use.

The difference can be seen in real combat.

In the battle between Taibai Academy and the Righteous Alliance, the disciples of Taibai Academy can often have the upper hand among those of the same level. If this were not the case, Taibai Academy would not have been able to persist for such a long time when the number of people was far less than that of the Righteous Alliance. .

It can even be said that the fight with the Zhengqi Alliance was back and forth.

However, it was indeed because of the huge gap in the number of monks and too many spies within the sect that Taibai Academy retreated steadily, and finally had to retreat to Cangshan Mountain.

After dressing up in disguise, the traveling group all put on large cloaks, and they were almost identical in appearance.

This won't attract anyone else's attention.

After all, Lincheng is turbulent now, and there are not a few people dressing up like them. It can even be said that many people choose to hide their identities, either wearing masks or disguising themselves.

It's quite common to travel around them.

Erhai Lake is not too close to them. Hengshuifang City is in the northeast of Lincheng, while Erhai Lake is in the southwest of Lincheng, two completely opposite directions.

Even though the Golden Feathered Eagle was very fast, it took Zhou You and the others more than three hours to arrive near Erhai Lake.

Today, there are monks everywhere near Erhai Lake.

Those with the lowest cultivation level also have the foundation building stage, while more are monks in the elixir forming stage.

In the past, those pill-forming monks were hard to see, but now they are hard to see.

Along the way, they encountered at least thirty pill-forming monks.

"I didn't expect that there would be so many alchemy monks in Lincheng. It's incredible."

Wang Tiezhu was astonished and exclaimed that he was ignorant and ignorant before.

Zhou You said, "Most of the pill-forming monks you see are actually monks from Nanzhou. There aren't many local pill-forming monks in Lincheng."

Although no one has specific statistics on how many alchemy monks there are in Lincheng.

But you can figure it out with a little calculation.

The Lin family, the Ye family, and the Wu family, the three major immortal-cultivating families, each have around five alchemy-forming monks. The total number of alchemy-forming cultivators in their three immortal-cultivating families does not exceed twenty.

As for the two immortal cultivation sects, Yulin Villa and Taixuan Sect, there are no more than twenty alchemy monks in total.

As for Taibai Academy and Zhengqi Alliance, there may be slightly more alchemy monks. The total number of the two sides should be more than twenty.

There are even fewer alchemy monks among casual cultivators.

Definitely no more than ten.

If you calculate this, there will be no more than seventy local alchemy monks in Lincheng.

And they met more than thirty alchemy monks along the way. It was impossible for them to meet half of the alchemy monks in Lincheng so easily.

Obviously, most of these thirty or so alchemy monks are actually from Nanzhou.

Moreover, according to the information given by Liu Hongni, there are more than fifty alchemy monks from various major forces in Guangnanzhou, and almost every force has sent more than five alchemy monks.

This does not include those hard-to-count casual cultivating pills.

Wang Tiezhu suddenly realized, and he asked: "Senior Brother Zhou, how many pill-forming do you think you can get into the Demon-Sealing Land this time?'

Zhou You said: "No less than a hundred people."

"hiss--"

Wang Tiezhu took a breath: "So many?"

Zhou You shook his head and said: "Only more, after all, the temptation of Taibai Sword Immortal's inheritance is too great, and this demon-sealing land is said to have not been opened for thousands of years, and there are elixirs everywhere. If you enter it, even if you don't compete for Taibai Sword Immortal's inheritance, you can only take it." Those millennium elixirs are also extremely cost-effective, and for pill-forming monks, they are good things to improve their cultivation."

After a pause, Zhou You continued: "So, it can basically be judged that most of the casual cultivators in the entire South Continent will come here to try their luck and try to enter the Demon Sealed Land."

Wang Tiezhu couldn't help but nodded when he heard this: "Senior Brother Zhou's analysis makes sense."

……

Soon, they arrived at the Demon Sealed Land.

After approaching the demon-sealing place, you can obviously feel the vague demonic energy all around.

This demonic energy is like a poisonous snake, trying to get into their bodies whenever they encounter Zhou You. If there is too much of this demonic energy in the body, it will easily affect the soul, causing the soul to mutate and turn into a demon.

Therefore, it is necessary to constantly run the skills and use mana to resist those demonic energies, which is equivalent to consuming mana all the time.

However, perhaps because the level of the demonic energy is not too high, monks in the pill formation stage only need to consume a trace of mana to block the demonic energy, and will not be affected by the demonic energy at all, while the mana restored by the rotation technique , completely worth the mana consumed.

So it can basically be said to be lossless.

As for the foundation-building period, the impact is even greater. In the foundation-building period, a large amount of mana is required to block those demonic energies.

No wonder Zuoqiu said that once the demon-sealing land is opened and the demonic energy escapes, monks below the level of pill formation will most likely turn into demons.

"Is this the demonic energy? It just escaped a little bit, and I don't feel very comfortable. If all the demonic energy escapes, the entire Lincheng will suffer, ugh."

Wang Tiezhu said with some worry.

Zhou Youdao: "Now is not the time to worry about that."

Wang Tiezhu could only nod helplessly.

Traveling around, they came to the vicinity of Erhai Lake and saw the Erhai Lake that had been frozen.

Although Erhai Lake has been frozen and there is only a thick layer of ice on the surface, you can still see mountain-like ruins under the ice when you look down from a high altitude.

"Those mountains underneath the ice look like a giant lying down."

Wang Tiezhu said.

Zhou You nodded and looked at Yin Shen: "Is that the body of the ancient demon?"

Yin Shen shook his head and said: "No, that mountain range is not the corpse of the ancient demon. It is just the relic of our ancient demon clan. The real corpse of the ancient demon is hidden under that mountain range."

Zhou You was stunned and nodded.

At this moment, several tyrannical spiritual consciousness swept over Zhou You and others, but did not stop at all.

"Let's go down first. The target in the sky is too big, so it's better not to be noticed for the time being."

Zhou You said calmly, turning into a rainbow and heading downwards.

While those divine senses were observing them, Zhou You had also noticed that there were many alchemy monks hidden nearby.

Those pill-forming monks all surrounded Erhai Lake and hid near Erhai Lake, quietly waiting for the opening of the Demon-Sealing Land.

"There are already sixty monks near Erhai Lake. It seems that the competition to enter the Demon Sealed Land this time is really fierce."

Zhou You said secretly.

Now that the strength of his spiritual consciousness has reached the Perfect Formation of the Pill, the range of his spiritual consciousness is a thousand miles, which can completely cover the entire Erhai Lake. If there are no Nascent Soul Stage monks present, almost no one can escape his detection.

After all, this is the divine consciousness of the Great Perfection.

Zhou You did not go to the place where he lived when he was working as a fisherman. Instead, he found a hilltop and sat cross-legged, quietly waiting for the Demon Sealed Land to open.

"Senior Brother Zhou, the Demon Sealed Land will only open in ten days. Are we just waiting here?"

Wang Tiezhu couldn't help but ask.

Zhou You nodded: "You can also practice."

As he spoke, he created several restrictions around him to block other people's spiritual exploration.

His restrictions are very subtle. They are several types of restrictions combined together, making it difficult for ordinary people to crack them.

"it is good!"

Wang Tiezhu nodded and felt relieved when he saw these restrictions. With the restrictions in place, even if the consciousness in the Nascent Soul stage wanted to explore them, they would be alarmed, so they could take precautions in advance.

After Wang Tiezhu started practicing, Zhou You opened his spiritual consciousness and observed the nearby monks one by one.

Although there are many monks who use restrictions to prevent others from prying, just like them.

But most of the restrictions only prevent prying into reality, but they cannot prevent Zhou You from seeing the faces of those monks.

Zhou You took out the jade slips Liu Hongni gave him and began to compare the monks' information one by one.

Half an hour later, the wandering consciousness almost walked around Erhai Lake, and finally came to a familiar place.

Seeing the somewhat dilapidated fishing position in the hut, even if I was traveling around, I couldn't help but be stunned.

This is where he has lived for nearly ten years.

Now it’s time to revisit the old place.

Looking back on those things in the past, Zhou You felt a little sad.

However, what made Zhou You a little confused was that the wooden house had been abandoned for more than ten years, but it still looked very neat, as if it had been cleaned regularly.

At this moment, the door of the wooden house opened, and a familiar figure appeared in the wandering consciousness.

I saw that she was a graceful girl wearing white clothes, with beautiful appearance and cold temperament.

The girl, with black hair like a waterfall and a slender figure, walked slowly to the Erhai Lake and stared blankly at the frozen Erhai Lake in front of her.

"noob……"

When Zhou You saw the girl, he couldn't help but murmur.

This girl is naturally Bai Chiyu who has a very good relationship with Zhou You.

Unexpectedly, Baichiyu would live here after Zhou You left.

The last time Zhou You met Bai Chiyu was at Taixuanmen. At that time, he and Bai Chiyu met at an auction. Bai Chiyu recognized Zhou You in disguise at a glance.

After that, the white pond fish often went to look for it.

However, Bai Chiyu later returned to Taibai Academy because he had to retreat to attack the core formation, and did not go to Zhou You for a long time.

Because Zhou You killed Lu Yunfeng, he knew that the cave had been exposed, so he left the cave.

Since then, Zhou You has never seen a white pond fish again.

However, before Zhou You left, he sent a transmission note to Bai Chiyu, but I don't know if Baichiyu received it.

Seeing Baichiyu guarding the place where he once lived, Zhou You felt quite uncomfortable.

but.

Zhou You did not show up, because with his powerful spiritual consciousness, he had realized that Baichiyu had actually been targeted, or in other words, the cabin where Zhou You lived had been targeted.

This is also the reason why Zhou You did not go to the wooden house.

Obviously, Zhou You guessed that his identity had been exposed, or in other words, someone already knew that his fish slave was not dead, and was also very powerful.

Zhou You knew without thinking that the Zhengqi Alliance must have gotten his information.

After all, Bai He was exposed because of this.

But now, the Zhengqi Alliance must not be able to find him, so they came up with this method to monitor the cabin where he used to live. They also know that Zhou You will definitely come to the Demon Sealing Land. When the time comes, he may come here. Check out the cabin.

After all, after living there for so many years, I still feel a little nostalgic.

Once he travels around to see him, the Righteous Alliance can find him and travel around.

Zhou You knows this very well.

As for the safety of Baichi fish, Zhou You is not worried.

First of all, Bai Chiyu is very powerful. I haven't seen her in the past ten years. Not only has she broken through to the core formation, but her cultivation has reached the peak of the mid-stage core formation. She is only one step away from entering the late stage of the core formation.

In addition, Bai Chiyu has various powerful methods at her disposal, so she probably has no opponents during the pill formation period. It would be very difficult for ordinary people to harm her.

Secondly, because of Baichiyu's special status, the Marquis of Lin'an did not dare to touch Baichiyu easily.

"This girl's talent is truly monstrous. With the help of the Golden Seal, I am only just touching the threshold of the middle stage of pill formation, but she is about to enter the late stage of pill formation."

Zhou You muttered secretly, feeling a little shocked.

Zhou You thought for a while, withdrew his consciousness, and then released some hidden spirit insects, so that the hidden spirit insects were distributed around the entire Erhai Lake, especially near Baichiyu, and strictly monitored the surrounding situation.

There are still necessary means.

With these hidden spirit insects, Zhou You can easily control all nearby situations. As long as there is any accident, he can get feedback as quickly as possible even without using his spiritual sense to detect it.

This is the benefit of the hidden spirit insect.

Zhou You closed his eyes and began to practice.

……

Five days passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, more than ten rainbows suddenly appeared in the sky.

Those rainbows were extremely fast and powerful, and they quickly reached the top of Erhai Lake.

Transformed into Mu Ziye, Meng Xun and others.

The appearance of these people successfully attracted everyone's attention. Even Zhou You couldn't help but look up and looked at Meng Xun and the others.

"The people from the Righteous Alliance are here."

Zhou You murmured, and his spiritual consciousness began to scan those people to see what was different among these people.

Soon, he noticed something was wrong.
