Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 740

[Chapter 738 Mission and Spies]

The world of earthly immortals.

Yaoyue Fairy City.

When Fang Xi walked out of the retreat room, Fairy Taiyin came to greet him: “Master… Chisongzi has sent three visiting cards!”

“Everyone is really anxious.”

He chuckled, transformed into a beam of light, and arrived at a shop in Yaoyue Fairy City that specialized in selling intelligence.

“Greetings, Mr. Keqing!”

After showing the guest token of Yaoyue Fairy City, an old man who has attained the state of being a god came out in person to receive him.

By now, the news of the war between humans and demons has spread throughout the ninety-nine domains of the human race, and there is chaos and disorder everywhere.

“I want to know the latest situation of Sanjie Mountain.”

Fang Xi sat upright in the main seat, sipping spiritual tea and asking casually.

“Your Excellency is a guest official of the Immortal City. According to the rules, all intelligence below the Heavenly Level can be obtained for free…”

The old man bowed deeply and said, “Regarding the latest situation of the war between humans and monsters… the beast tide led by the original Hunyuan Great Sage of the monster race has broken through the twenty arrays of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gangs Big Dipper Array… Now, the five human beings including Jin Gangzi and Chang Qingzi have entered the last ‘Tian Jue City’ to take charge! With the power of the quasi-ninth-level array, even a true spirit-level being cannot easily break through…”

“In this battle between humans and demons, the demons used all their strength right from the start, and our human race was somewhat caught off guard.”

Fang Xi took a sip of the spiritual tea and felt quite a bit like this: “How will it affect my Star Domain?”

“The first batch of reinforcements from Xingchen Sect suffered heavy casualties, and they have already begun recruiting the second batch of reinforcements.”

The old man who had attained the state of transformation did not dare to conceal the truth: “In addition, it is said that there are spies from the ‘Heavenly Demon Society’ who have penetrated into the ninety-nine regions of the human race, carrying out covert activities such as instigating rebellion and creating unrest…”

“The Heavenly Demon Society?”

Fang Xi became interested: “Is this the power of the demon race?”

“That’s right. The ‘Heavenly Demon Society’ is backed by the demon race. Its members are a mixed bunch, not all of them are human demon cultivators. Demon cultivators and even ordinary cultivators may be among them. However, it is said that the most trusted ones are the defected spirit pets… It would be best if they can kill their former masters.”

The old man in the state of transformation answered respectfully.

Fang Xi was speechless after listening to this for a while. He inexplicably felt that the old dragon from the Yulong Sect might have some background in the Heavenly Demon Society…

“In the Star Region, there is also a ‘Sky Demon Society’ lurking in secret. It is said that it has cultivated a Return to Void cultivator and destroyed several Divine Transformation forces. It is worrying…”

Listening to the old man’s introduction, Fang Xi couldn’t help but think deeply.

In fact, there are so many powerful forces that destroying a few of them will have no impact.

But the bad thing is that people are in panic. When people’s morale is low, it is difficult to lead a team. This is a universal truth.

“Where is Yaoyue Fairy City?”

Fang Xi asked casually.

“I had sent a Returning Void cultivator from Yaoyue Immortal City to the Star Region before. Now the soul lamp is still burning, so they should be safe and sound… But the Chamber of Commerce’s Grand Master Zhou and Senior Guang died while exploring a secret realm…”

The old man who had reached the state of spiritual transformation gritted his teeth and revealed more things.

‘It seems that Master Dong Qiuzi is safe and sound?’

“Then Yaoyue Fairy City might develop…”

Fang Xi’s heart moved.

At this moment, a red light flashed outside the door and a monk walked in.

The head was as big as a bucket, bald without much hair, and it was Chisongzi in a red robe!
“Daoist Fellow Chisongzi, why are you in such a hurry?”

Fang Xi cursed with a smile, then glanced at the old man who had attained the state of spiritual enlightenment next to him.

There is no doubt that the leak of his information was definitely this person’s fault.

However, compared to the guests from Xiancheng, the elders are naturally more important.

After all, one is only a member of the family in name only, while the other is a real member of the family and also his immediate superior.

“Don’t blame me, I told my subordinates to remember that if you come out of retreat, you should notify me immediately.”

Chisongzi first bowed to apologize, then spoke.

“Daoist Chisongzi is so anxious, could it be that something big has happened?”

Fang Xi was a little confused: “I think the situation in the Star Region should be fine…”

Chi Songzi heard this, but smiled bitterly: “It’s still the matter of the Heavenly Demon Association, but it’s a top-level secret – the Heavenly Demon Association is suspected of winning over many Return to Void cultivators, and there may even be some in the late Return to Void realm or even the Perfect realm… A caravan led by Fairy Chen from our Chamber of Commerce has been attacked by the Heavenly Demon Association, and a large number of rare materials and several important items have been robbed… Fairy Chen’s body was unfortunately destroyed, and only her Nascent Soul escaped!”

“To be honest…”

Fang Xi looked surprised and doubtful: “Late stage of Return to Void, perfect Return to Void? How could a cultivator of this level be recruited by the Heavenly Demon Society?”

He seemed to be thinking about something.

“To be honest…” Chisongzi’s expression became extremely serious. “It is said that in the Heavenly Demon Association, there are secret techniques to break through the fusion and elixirs to break through the ranks as rewards…Now in the Star Region, some old monsters who live in seclusion may be tempted to join…”

“The secret technique to break through the fusion and the elixir to break the rank?”

Fang Xi took a deep breath, his eyes seemed a little hot.

This is of course false.

He practiced the inheritance of the Earth Immortal, and as long as the scale of the Earth Immortal spiritual realm was reached, he could break through naturally. This was better than taking elixirs and performing secret techniques to stimulate the bottleneck!

Sitting on mountains of gold and silver, one naturally wouldn’t care about two copper coins on the ground. This is Fang Xi’s current mentality.

“The demon race has a vast territory, and is rich in some elixirs that are beneficial to our human race…but combined spiritual objects are also extremely rare.”

Chi Songzi said seriously, “Besides…how could the secret elixirs given to me and other humans by the demon race not have any side effects?”

“That’s right!”

Fang Xi answered as a matter of course: “But I’m afraid those old monsters who don’t have much time left will pursue a glimmer of hope even if it means drinking poison to quench their thirst!”

“well……”

Chisongzi sighed, suddenly stood up and bowed to the ground.

“Why do you, Daoist friend Chisongzi, perform such a great ceremony?”

Fang Xi was shocked and quickly helped him up.

“Hey, fellow Taoist, please consider our long-standing friendship and come out once!”

Chisongzi said in a hoarse voice: “Now the Fanxu elders of Yaoyue Immortal City all have their own duties, and they really can’t spare any manpower… Recently, the Immortal City has an important mission that concerns the rise and fall of the Immortal City. Although this old man is also involved, I am not very sure…”

“Could it be that they are seeking revenge against the Heavenly Demon Society and trying to steal the supplies?”

Fang Xi asked speculatively.

If it was a task like this, he would definitely refuse it directly.

What kind of gang is this that wants a guest like him to risk his life to fight?

“Not to the extent that…”

Chi Songzi shook his hands wildly: “The Heavenly Demon Association is now very powerful. Even with all our strength, Yaoyue Fairy City cannot defeat their branch in the Star Region… We can only suffer this loss.”

“This time, it’s because there are several important supplies in the caravan that were destroyed last time, and they need to be transported again…”

Looking at his eyes, he seemed very sincere.

After all, strictly speaking, there seem to be only two or three people in the late stage of Return to Void in Yaoyue Fairy City, including Master Dong Qiuzi.

Now that they have been robbed by the Heavenly Demon Society, it is normal for them to suffer losses and admit defeat.

But Fang Xi knew that Yaoyue Fairy City had many hidden cards.

Apart from anything else, once Dong Qiuzi’s two quasi-seventh-level dragon and phoenix puppets are completed, this group of spies from the Tianyao Society will be easily destroyed.

“But if the dragon and phoenix puppets appear, it’s best to annihilate them all. Otherwise, the Heavenly Demon Association in the nearby regions might be attracted to us…”

‘Speaking of which, there seem to be a lot of good things among the demon race… Compared to the exchange of what is available among the human race, if a space coordinate is opened between the demon race and the demon race, wealth will simply roll in! ‘

Fang Xi thought of another thing.

Although transportation between the ninety-nine domains of the human race is inconvenient, so they can buy low and sell high, there is a limit.

But if we can open up trade channels between the demon clan and the monster clan, the profits will be huge.

Not to mention cultivating a fusion cultivator, even if one accumulates enough resources to reach the Mahayana stage, there is some possibility.

‘Now, in order to prepare for the war, I will try my best to improve my strength… I have already consumed the fairy jade to improve my progress in the Earthly Immortal Realm…’

“But the little fairy jade I earned before is not enough…”

Fang Xi, who was short of money, had already started planning in his mind.

“With the magic of my Three Phases of Exterminating Origin, it won’t be a problem for me to pretend to be a demon or monster… When the time comes, I can enter the lands of the demon and monster tribes and open up trade routes… Immortal Jade will naturally come rolling in.”

“But it’s still a little dangerous.”

“If it really doesn’t work, let the Outer Dao Avatar do it… First open up the Demon Tribe trade route, it will be enough to make money.”

…

“What do you think, fellow Daoist?”

Just when Fang Xi was thinking about how to make money, Chisongzi asked with anticipation.

“I can earn tens or even hundreds of immortal jades in a minute, why would I risk my life for such a small matter as yours?”

Fang Xi complained in his heart.

However, as the ancestor of the Wang family, this character is very poor.

After all, if you stay at home all the time, you naturally won’t have many fairy jades.

The remaining little was exchanged by the Wang family members who risked their lives to go to the overseas immortal palace.

According to common sense, if there is a task with low risk, high return and relatively short term, the ancestor of the Wang family should not refuse.

“The current transport mission is quite dangerous. If we are not careful, we may come into conflict with the Heavenly Demon Society…”

Fang Xi’s face was full of hesitation.

Seeing this, Chisongzi thought there was something going on and smiled gently, “For this mission, in addition to the fairy jade reward, this city is also willing to give out a ‘Feixidu Pill’…”

“oh?”

Fang Xi’s eyes lit up: “But what about the ‘Flying Void Pill’, which is said to be one of the three most useful elixirs for breaking through the middle stage of Return to Void?”

“That’s right…”

Chisongzi asked, “What do you think, fellow Taoist?”

“Since you have invited me so kindly, I will have no choice but to sacrifice my life to accompany you.”

Fang Xi pinched the Buddhist beads in his hand and answered calmly.

…

A few days later.

Yaoyue Fairy City, on a hill somewhere outside the city.

Chisongzi and a Fanxu monk were waiting.

This Return to the Void cultivator has an aura of cultivation at around the middle stage of the Return to the Void stage. She is a female cultivator and her every frown and smile carries a special charm.

“For this mission, we only need to pick up ‘Daoyou Tong’ who is coming from the outside world!”

Chi Songzi was all smiles: “I have to rely on Shi Keqing a lot!”

This fellow Daoist Shi, also known as ‘Shi Xianzi’, is also a guest official of Yaoyue Fairy City. He inherited his skills from a senior who was once the famous ‘Fairy of Ten Thousand Flowers’ in the Star Domain. He passed down a ‘Treasure Mirror of Ten Thousand Flowers’ and once made a great name for himself in the world of immortal cultivation.

Now, Yaoyue Fairy City has paid a huge price to invite Shi Xianzi to take action.

“I heard that Fellow Daoist Wang will also go?”

Shi Xianzi changed the subject.

Chisongzi felt helpless, knowing that this was the Stone Fairy expressing her dissatisfaction.

After all, he is a cultivator in the middle stage of Return to the Void, so why would he wait for someone in the early stage of Return to the Void?

At this moment, he had no choice but to admit: “That’s right, I invited you with all my strength… If I could have one more Taoist friend, I would have a better chance.”

“This mission seems to be extremely important to the Immortal City, which is why they immediately sent out Fellow Daoist Tong after the loss of Fairy Chen…”

Shi Xianzi smiled and said, “Could it be… related to Master Dong Qiuzi? Master Dong Qiuzi went out with fellow Daoists Guang and Zhou, but they returned seriously injured. Even the two Daoists didn’t escape with their Nascent Souls. This is something that even the Heavenly Demon Association can hardly do. Could it be that they encountered a powerful enemy?”

“this……”

Chisongzi was speechless for a moment, but fortunately he saw a golden light at this time, which flashed a few times at the city gate, and then the figure of the ancestor of the Wang family appeared.

She walks with lotus steps, holding Buddhist beads in her hands and a bell hanging from her waist, which is quite Zen-like.

He immediately went to greet him with great joy: “Friend Wang, you are finally here…”

However, he ignored the question asked by Fairy Shi without leaving any trace.

Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.

“Friends Equator, Fellow Stone…”

Fang Xi bowed his hands in greeting and said, “I have made some extra preparations for this trip, so please forgive me for being late!”

“No, no…”

Fairy Shi behaved very gently at this time. After all, as they were both Return to Void cultivators, it would not be good to offend a fellow practitioner for no reason.

Chisongzi felt helpless in his heart.

The Stone Fairy’s behavior at this moment is very different from before.

“Okay, now that everyone is here, let’s go.”

Fang Xi ignored these trivial matters and spoke.

“Now that things have come to this, can I finally reveal Fellow Daoist Tong’s route?”

Fairy Shi said: “You have been hiding things from Yaoyue Fairy City before, and I don’t know why…”

“Don’t blame me, fairy…”

Chi Songzi transformed into a long red rainbow, escaping at an incredibly fast speed, leading the way ahead while communicating in voice transmission: “This trade route was secretly opened by our immortal city, and it is an important secret… But in such a critical moment, if you two fellow Taoists are willing to help, we will naturally tell you everything we know.”

“This business road is actually located in the abyss and needs to pass through the Xuanming Sea Eye…”

“What?” Fang Xi and Shi Xianzi were both extremely surprised when these words came out: “Mysterious Sea Eye?”

Fang Xi couldn’t help but think of the geography of the Star Region.

In ancient times, a star fell in this area, forming a huge abyss above the ground.

It is extremely dangerous there, even the most powerful cultivators dare not venture deep into it.

And a crack in this huge abyss formed the Mysterious Sea!
“Could it be that Yaoyue Fairy City has already explored the abyss?”

Fang Xi and Fairy Shi looked at each other and asked the same question.

“Of course not!”

Chisongzi shook his head repeatedly: “It was only by chance that Yaoyue Fairy City obtained a map left by our ancestors and explored part of the geography of the ‘Abyss’… and through generations of exploration, we finally found a relatively safe passage at the outermost edge of the Abyss…”

“Even so, it’s pretty amazing.”

Fang Xi couldn’t help but sigh, it was worthy of being a Return to Void force, there were always some unknown cards.

For the Chamber of Commerce, a safe trade route is naturally a priceless treasure!
“In the Star Region, there are occasional dangers at the God Transformation level in the wilderness. Even if there is a God Transformation cultivator leading the team, there is still a certain risk… Unless Fanxu leads the team personally, even then there is no guarantee of safety…”

Fang Xi speculated: “If the danger of the underground route is much lower than this, then we can make a fortune every day…”

“No, no, the Diyuan Trade Route is relatively safe, but there may be dangers of returning to the Void level occasionally… Our city was forced to use this route because Fairy Chen’s caravan was ambushed. It’s actually a helpless move.”

During the conversation, the three great monks who had returned to the void had already controlled the vital energy of heaven and earth and entered the direction of Xuanming Abyss.

Fang Xi looked at the inky black sea and couldn’t help but sigh.

But now, the numerous dangers of Xuanming Abyss are like a breeze to the Return to Void cultivators.

In the blink of an eye, the three of them went thousands of miles deep and arrived at the Eye of the Xuanming Sea.

Crash!
As far as the eye can see, there is an extremely huge whirlpool.

Endless dark heavy water penetrated through the sea eye and entered the Dark Sea, stirring up countless small streams.

Such wonders of heaven and earth are extremely difficult to see in the lower world.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Three beams of light sank into the sea eye from front and back, and thousands of acres of sea water surged in, bringing with it great pressure.

Considering the degree of terror, even a cultivator who has reached the state of Divine Transformation would find it difficult to survive.

At this time, the three of them showed their magical powers.

A treasure in the shape of a red pine tree appeared in Chisongzi’s hand, with thin red lines hanging down from it, protecting him inside.

Fairy Shi chuckled, and a jade mirror appeared in her hand, with countless petals entwined around her body.

Fang Xi spread out his sleeves, and a shadow of a poisonous dragon roared and swallowed the Xuanming black water in big gulps.

“There are many undercurrents in this sea. If you are not careful, you may end up on a wrong path. A slight mistake can lead to a huge mistake. Please follow me closely, fellow Taoists!”

Chisongzi conveyed a message and led the way.

Fang Xi and Fairy Shi followed immediately.

In the dim Xuanming Sea, huge black shadows would occasionally pass by.

But Chisongzi did not provoke them, and these giant beasts would not provoke the three of them.

After all, in terms of size, they are just like three tiny specks of dust around a whale.

finally……

After going unknown quantities of thousands of miles underground, Fang Xi and the other two jumped out of the sea and saw a canyon-like crack.

“Is this the Earth Abyss?”

Fang Xi looked up at the cliff and saw a layer of strange moss climbing on the dark, cold and hard surface of the rock.

These mosses are shaped like spiders and can actually climb and move, with a layer of light blue light glowing on their backs.

Looking around, the entire abyss looks like a sea of blue tears, like a dream.

“The ecology in the abyss has always been so magnificent… but it is also extremely dangerous.”

Chi Songzi reminded again: “Our city paid a huge price and lost a lot of manpower, including several high-level monks, to explore a relatively safe route…”

He pulled out a jade bottle from his bosom, pinched out a little powder, and flicked it twice.

Two streams of smoke and dust enveloped Fang Xi and Shi Xianzi.

“This is ‘Mitian Dust’… It can help us lower our aura and avoid attracting the attention of the powerful beings in the abyss…”

After Chisongzi finished speaking, he led the way ahead.

Fang Xi followed without any objection.

Another half month later, after experiencing many wonderful adventures in the abyss, Fang Xi and the other two finally met the “Elder Tong” in a cave.

This man is also an elder of Yaoyue Fairy City. He is tall and strong, with a full beard. His cultivation is at the middle stage of Return to Void, but he is seriously injured.

“Fellow Daoist Tong…”

Chi Songzi hurried forward and took out a jade bottle containing healing elixirs: “How could this be?”

After swallowing the pill, Elder Tong looked better and answered, “We encountered the pursuit of the Heavenly Demon, who had planted a spy in my team… Fortunately, I had a trick up my sleeve and secretly turned back through this underground route… But I was unlucky and encountered another ‘Earth Beast’…”

“It’s actually a Di Ming beast. This beast is comparable to the seventh level… and is not affected by the Mi Tian dust. Brother Tong, you are so lucky…”

Chisongzi had a bitter smile on his face.

“I was seriously injured and could only ask for help. Fortunately, several Taoist friends came to rescue me…”

Elder Tong bowed and expressed his gratitude.

Fang Xi and Fairy Shi naturally returned the gift.

The four of them returned along the same route they had come.

Fang Xi observed secretly and found that Elder Tong was indeed seriously injured. If he encountered a dangerous God Transformation level again, he would be in trouble.

It seems that it would be difficult for him to return through the Xuanming Sea Eye alone.

What’s more, there is still a long way to go!
‘It seems that the materials he brought are indeed very important to Yaoyue Fairy City… Could they be the key parts for building a quasi-seventh-level puppet?’

Such a guess emerged in Fang Xi’s mind.

…

Half a month later.

Mysterious Abyss.

From the eye of the Xuanming Sea, the shadow of a dragon suddenly jumped out, followed by three beams of light.

“It finally came out…”

Fang Xi collected the shadow of the poisonous dragon and felt a little emotional.

For him who holds the ‘Xuanming Flag’, the Xuanming Sea Eye is not really dangerous, but rather a good place.

For every day the Xuanming Flag stays in the eye of the Xuanming Sea, it can absorb more water from the Xuanming Sea and refine its own power.

“The most dangerous part of the journey is over. I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.”

Chisongzi laughed.

A smile also appeared on Elder Tong’s face.

At this moment, the four people’s faces changed.

A spiritual consciousness of the late Return to Void stage came from nowhere and locked onto the four of them!

Several auras of returning to the void quickly surrounded them, and it was obvious at first glance that they had bad intentions.

“It’s Old Monster Qiao from the Heavenly Demon Society!”

Elder Tong’s expression changed: “How could he catch us so accurately?”

Chisongzi looked at Fang Xi and Shi Xianzi with a look of doubt and confusion.

He had some suspicion that these two people were being recruited by the Heavenly Demon Society.

Fang Xi frowned.

At this critical moment, if they were to engage in internal strife, wouldn’t it be a matter of life and death?
Of course, this was for the other three monks.

“Ha ha!”

“You two have done a good job. I, Tian Yao, will not treat you unfairly.”

Old Monster Qiao escaped at an extremely fast speed and came close to the four people. He looked at Fang Xi and Fairy Shi with approval on his face.

Hearing this, Chisongzi and Elder Tong’s faces turned pale: “Are you two really spies?”

Fang Xi and Fairy Shi looked at each other and saw the suspicion in each other’s eyes.

But at this moment, it will never be wrong to protect yourself first.

Fairy Shi immediately pointed at the ‘Treasure Mirror of Ten Thousand Flowers’, and a burst of strange fragrance passed by. Flowers as big as bowls bloomed in the void, like a sea of flowers, guarding it.

Fang Xi sighed and offered a talisman.

I have been busy at night recently and have not had enough sleep, so I am sorry for the delay in updating in the morning…
