Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 697
[Chapter 695: Tianfan Territory (Additional updates, please subscribe)]
A plain.
Above the ground, pale arms grew out, each hand had more than ten fingers, like some strange-shaped tree branches, all pointing to the sky.
“Destroy!”
A dark stream of light flashed across the sky, and the spiritual power of heaven and earth was mobilized, transforming into countless black flames that fell like raindrops.
Swish!
A bit of black flame fell on this strange ‘arm branch’ and burned rapidly like a spark encountering boiling oil.
In just a moment, tens of thousands of acres of strange arms turned into ashes.
“It’s the Divine Master!”
“Thank you for your help, Venerable Huashen!”
On the ground, a large number of immortal cultivators flew out from several convoys that were almost surrounded by manpower, and they were all overjoyed and bowed down to pay their respects.
The black light faded, revealing Fang Xi’s figure.
He looked indifferently and coldly at the convoy below, and found that everyone in the convoy was a monk, and there was not a single mortal.
However, most of them have low mana, and most of them are at Qi Refining, followed by Foundation Building, and the highest level of cultivation is barely at the stage of Dan Formation!
“This Ten Thousand Hands Forest is a place where people die every day. If you want to pass through it, you have to hurry… After leaving the Ten Thousand Hands Forest and going east for another 30,000 miles, you will reach the ‘Black Rock Market’! You can go by yourselves…”
After saying this, Fang Xi turned into a stream of light and disappeared in a flash.
When the monks heard that these strange hands could regenerate, they were immediately shocked and set off quickly on the plain covered with ash, as if they were fleeing…
Thousands of miles away.
Fang Xi stopped his escape and suddenly sighed.
Several years ago, he followed the Tianfan Army and was teleported to this wilderness on a super teleportation array.
At that time, I witnessed a great battle of combined forces!
Several combined cultivators of the Tianfan Army took action and drove away the combined-level primitive ancient beasts that survived in this wild land.
Soon after, he built a formation that was suspected to be of the eighth level, covering an area of barely one region.
The physical battles and array arrangements really opened Fang Xi’s eyes and made him feel that the trip was well worthwhile.
But after that, it was the turn of these captains and sergeants to suffer.
This area is temporarily named “Tianfan Realm”. If it is successfully reclaimed, a great Brahma sect will surely be established.
Because the area was so vast, all the Return to Void and Transformation to the Spirit cultivators were sent out. They began to frantically kill wild beasts, eradicate some dangerous places, and then comb the spiritual veins and establish markets – that is, the gathering point for cultivators.
The Black Rock Market was run by a Return to Void cultivator, assisted by Fang Xi and other Incarnation Captains.
In addition to clearing the wasteland, the daily tasks are to clear the surrounding dangers and guide low-level monks…
“It feels like… this land reclamation is very urgent.”
He chose a cloud, hid in it, and lay down, crossing his legs. He just held a dogtail grass in his mouth, and began to blatantly slack off…
At the same time, recalling the various things that happened during the land reclamation, I have some inexplicable premonitions.
After all, Fang Xi had experienced the development of the Lei Ze Wilderness, so he was familiar with the process.
At the beginning, it must be the high-level monks who take action. When the area is generally safe, the low-level monks will be relocated, and finally the mortals…
But this time, the Tianfan Army progressed too quickly.
He had just confirmed that there were no major God Transformation threats within tens of millions of miles of the Black Rock Market, but dangers like the ‘Wan Shou Forest’ that could threaten the Core Formation or even the Nascent Soul stage still existed.
As a result, the low-level monks began to migrate.
If he hadn’t happened to attack just now, I’m afraid all those low-level cultivators would have been killed!
“Although this place is rich in resources and has many natural treasures, it shouldn’t be like this, right?”
Fang Xi discussed this with Fairy Yun Xi and several other Taoist friends, but none of them could come up with an answer.
After slacking off for a while, he looked at the sky, transformed into a ray of magic light, and returned to the Black Rock Market.
…
As the name suggests, the Black Rock Market is a huge market built entirely with some kind of black rock.
It is called a market town, but in fact it is already a “city”.
Even this unique “black rock” is the body part of a group of local Return to Void-level wild beasts – the Black Mountain Giant Spirit!
This kind of black mountain giant reaches the Return to Void level when it reaches adulthood. It is huge in size, extremely powerful, and has thick skin and flesh. Even a Divine Transformation cultivator would find it difficult to harm it. In order to destroy it, a Fusion cultivator had to take action.
Of course, after its death, the ‘black stone’ that its body turned into was not of much use, and it was difficult to use it to refine weapons, but it was an excellent material for building cities.
It is said that although each black stone is ordinary, once it reaches a certain size, it will naturally have the power to “exorcise evil spirits”. No matter whether it is evil spirits or wild beasts in the wilderness, they will try to stay away from the black stone area.
After Fang Xi tried it a few times himself, he felt that the legend was quite credible.
At least there has been no evil spirits in the market since its establishment.
He landed on top of the Black Stone Gate. When the soldiers guarding the city saw him coming, they all saluted and called him “Captain”.
There is no need to queue up and you can go straight into the city.
The Black Rock Market is divided into three floors.
The outermost layer is naturally given to the low-level cultivators, while the inner layer is for the low-level soldiers of the garrisoned Tianfan Army, and is opened up into Jindan and Yuanying caves.
As for the most core place, it is naturally the place where the Captain of Huashen and the Commander of Fanxu practice in seclusion.
In fact, the cave here is much smaller and is far less spacious and convenient than Mount Xumi.
But there is no other way.
Fang Xi pressed the escape light and did not return to his own cave, but came to another place.
As soon as he entered the formation, he smelled a strong aroma of wine.
Then he saw a snow-white meat mountain sitting in a pool of wine and a forest of meat. It was none other than the gluttonous hermit!
“Friend Fang…are you back from patrol?”
Su Haruko beside her laughed.
“Exactly.”
Fang Xi sat down calmly, and Pu Fairy beside him brought him a glass of wine.
He took it and drank it all, then sighed: “Before in Wanshou Forest, we rescued a convoy, otherwise I’m afraid the whole army would be wiped out…”
“The Ten Thousand Hands Forest is a stubborn disease that is difficult to eradicate. Every time we treat it, we only treat the symptoms but not the root cause. Except for high-level cultivators, it is recommended that other low-level cultivators take a detour…”
Xu Qingzi sighed, then smiled and said, “But those who were forced to relocate here are all the ruined sects and independent cultivators among the human race. If one group dies, there will be another group. It’s not a big deal…”
After these words were spoken, Fang Xi fell silent.
The so-called land reclamation is actually to use the lives of monks to ask the wild for land and spiritual veins bit by bit…
“With so many people, all using the super teleportation array, I’m afraid the consumption will be huge…”

Fairy Pu suddenly spoke.
“Maybe they migrated directly from the nearby regions?”
The Crazy Tao Layman said: “The Tianfan Territory is originally adjacent to the human territory… As long as there is a powerful combined body in charge, it is not difficult to migrate hundreds of thousands or millions of cultivators at a time!”
When Fang Xi heard this, he thought of the geography of Tianfan Territory.
This place is located in the south of the human race, adjacent to the ‘Yanhuo Domain’ and the ‘Cangqing Domain’.
However, there are terrible dangers lurking in the border areas.
Otherwise, these two areas would have already taken the initiative to develop the wilderness, and it would not be their turn to open up the wasteland.
‘It is said that to go from the Tianfan Realm to the Yanhuo Realm, one needs to pass through a terrible desert. The strong winds in the sky are unbearable even for the Transformation God cultivators… and the ‘Divine Wind’ often blows. Even the Return to Void cultivators will lose their way if they are not careful and disappear completely in the depths of the desert… There is also a strange sand beast that can reach the highest level of fusion and is very difficult to deal with…’
“It is actually closer to the Cangqing Territory, separated only by a mountain range… but in that mountain range, there are wild beasts that look like true spirits living…”
“So most of these low-level monks were led by combined monks and moved from the Flame Region through the desert…”
A true spirit-level wild beast is comparable to a great Mahayana immortal!
Those combined monks would rather get lost in the desert and face the siege of sand beasts than take risks in the mountains.
“Fortunately, the Tianfan Territory has already built a super teleportation array… As long as we hold on for a few more years, we can apply to return for repairs.”
Fang Xi smiled slightly.
“Haha… Exactly.”
The Crazy Tao Monk seemed to be thinking of something happy: “Today, there is plenty of wild beast meat… This time, the wild beast meat was killed by me personally, and the taste is very delicious. Coupled with Fellow Daoist Fang’s cooking skills, I’m sure you will be satisfied…”
Fang Xi didn’t refuse after hearing that.
He came to the forest of hanging meat, selected a few pieces of good meat, took out many pots and pans, and started cooking…
The wild beast meat, which was originally extremely hard, had already become extremely soft after being tempered by his six magic flames.
At this time, after boiling it three times in the pot, a strange aroma suddenly emerges.
Xu Qingzi stared at the copper tripod in Fang Xi’s hand without blinking, and her mouth was drooling: “Daoyou, your spiritual cooking skills are progressing quite fast…”
“Before, my cultivation was difficult to improve, so I had to focus on cooking. I didn’t expect to gain some insights. By analogy, I was able to break through the bottleneck…”
Fang Xi smiled slightly.
This is also an excuse, but a good one.
When a monk reaches a certain level of practice, his magic power cannot improve at all, which means he has reached a bottleneck.
If you can’t break through, you may be forgotten by everyone for the rest of your life.
After hearing how he used the spiritual cooking method to draw inferences from one instance to another and break through the bottleneck, and seeing that Fang Xi’s cultivation had indeed improved by leaps and bounds, even the gluttonous hermit could not help but feel envious.
“Haha, then I’m going to taste it carefully…”
The gluttonous hermit laughed out loud…
…
In the Tianfan Realm, many cultivators were either fighting bloody battles, or practicing hard, or enjoying themselves.
Tianfan City.
This city is the core of the Tianfan Realm, and the most important super teleportation array is located here.
This night.
Cry!
With the sound of a bird piercing through the sky and clouds, a majestic phoenix with colorful feathers suddenly appeared under the night sky!
“Fusion stage…Phoenix?”
The cultivators of Tianfan City sensed the power of this ferocious bird and screamed in agony, trying to escape.
“Amitabha!”
At the critical moment, accompanied by a Buddhist chant, golden Brahma light shot up into the sky.
Amidst the golden flowers in the sky, a golden figure of an eight-armed arhat emerged.
This arhat’s eyes were wide open and he roared like a wrathful Vajra King. His eight arms each held a rosary, an alms bowl, a Zen staff, a Buddhist sword and other Buddhist treasures, which fell down with a loud bang.
Bang!
The phoenix cried, blending in with the Buddhist chanting.
The void twisted, and a space storm suddenly erupted, sweeping across the super teleportation array in the center of the city…
