A small casual cultivator!

Chapter 432: Dark Insect Tribe

Early the next morning.

Xu Feng carefully took out the spiritual herbs planted in the forbidden areas around the courtyard.

These were the result of his hard work over the years. Although the quality was not very good, they were still worth seven or eight intermediate spirit stones.

Finally, the house was sold. Since it didn't have many good formations and the building materials were average, the yard was not worth many spirit stones, but it still had some small value on the spot.

After doing all this, the two flew to Liushuang City.

The Armored Gate was still very far away from here. Xu Feng originally planned to fly there by himself, but after thinking about it, he decided it would be faster to take the teleportation array.

After entering Liushuang City, he and Lu Luan gathered some spirit stones and bought an attack talisman worth 100 intermediate spirit stones. As long as it was used properly, this talisman could completely kill the man in the Pijiamen cave.

"Brother Lu, I'm sorry to have cost you so much money."

After leaving the commercial building, Xu Feng looked at him apologetically. He thought that Lu Luan had never come from such a far place across the sea, and he probably didn't have many spirit stones on him now.

Lu Luan smiled and said, "No problem, let's go and take the teleportation array."

"Ah."

Then the two of them flew to the teleportation array in the city.

That was on the northeastern edge of the city. When they arrived, they found dozens of small hills floating in the air, with spiritual light flashing on them. From time to time, there were spiritual waves rising into the sky when a large formation was activated. There were also many huge flying boats in all directions. Some cultivators came out of them and flew everywhere, while others rode the wind up.

This is the busiest place in the city.

And in the air around, there were many golden fonts, with dragons and phoenixes flying in a flamboyant style.

"Find a few fellow Taoists and go kill the monster together."

"Training in the underground abyss, forming a formation and going there, at least the initial stage of foundation building."

"The Wang family is looking for a son-in-law. The second daughter of Wang Yao, the fourth young master of the Wang family, must be under 40 years old, at the foundation-building stage, with yellow-level spiritual roots..."

As soon as he arrived here, Lu Luan looked at the words. As he was reading, a voice came from his mind.

Most of these were about finding teammates to go on adventures underground, in the devil's realm, or in the monster's realm. Of course, there were some others, such as recruiting a son-in-law. He felt a little weird about this.

Xu Feng followed his gaze and said jokingly, "Brother Lu, what's the matter? Are you interested? You are alone, and the Wang family is quite powerful. Brother Lu is also handsome and talented. Although he is a little older, he is not without opportunities. You can give it a try."

Lu Luan just shook his head speechlessly and continued to look away.

For these huge family forces, if there are female descendants with better talents, they usually recruit sons-in-law from outside and absorb people with better talents. Although there are also marriages with other forces to achieve certain interests, they are not many.

"My two fellow Taoists, there are a lot of small groups of demons and monsters on the edge of Bailuzhou recently. Are you interested in going with us?"

Seeing them stop and look, a middle-aged man in a green shirt flew over and said with a smile.

"No, we are going to other continents."

Xu Feng quickly refused.

"In that case, I won't bother you."

The man smiled awkwardly, and seeing that he had a determined expression, knowing that he had no intention, he left.

"Brother Lu, let's go."

Xu Feng urged, and then the two of them flew into the sky.

During the flight, Xu Feng also warned: "Brother Lu, in this wilderness, if you are not very familiar with each other, don't easily team up with people you don't know. The border of Bailuzhou is not peaceful now, and demons are dormant. If you really want to kill demons, it is recommended that you go alone."

"I'll pay attention." Lu Luan replied.

"Where are you going, fellow Taoists?"

A hunchbacked old man flew over and asked.

"Go to Baiyue Bay."

Xu Feng said that he had been to the ruins of the Pijia Gate before and was familiar with the route.

"Then follow me." The old man smiled, and then took them to fly to a suspended sacred mountain not far away.

After waiting for a few hours, they started to take the teleportation array. Of course, Baiyue Bay was not the location of the Pijia Gate, and they had to transfer in different places during the journey. However, this was still very familiar to Xu Feng, a native of this place.

……

After transferring through three teleportation arrays, early the next morning.

In the mountains, there is a sparsely populated market town.

In the valley, Lu Luan and his companion flew out from the teleportation array along with other cultivators.

This place is close to the edge of Bailuzhou, and there are not many cultivators here.

Lu Luan walked on the street and looked around. He found that the atmosphere here was very different from other places in Bailuzhou. It was very heavy and gave people a very depressing feeling. There were many immortal cultivators passing by with broken arms and legs, and they exuded murderous aura.

Even the air flowing around had a cold feeling.

Xu Feng noticed his strangeness and explained, "Brother Lu, more than 30 years ago, there was a large-scale invasion of demons and monsters that swept across the five states of the Wilderness. This place was also affected. Although it has ended, there are still some remaining demons and monsters in these places. It is still relatively chaotic. Those who come here are basically people who are training."

"Brother Xu, the Pijia Sect was also destroyed at that time," said Lu Luan.

"Well, at that time, the demons and monsters came fiercely, and they even joined forces with the underground dark tribe, the dark insect tribe and other races of creatures. The immortal forces in this area were naturally the first to bear the brunt. In that war, more than a hundred immortal sects and families were destroyed, and this armor sect was one of them."

"The Dark Insect Tribe." Lu Luan frowned.

He had never heard of this race before in Wudu Sea where there was no interference from foreign races. But after coming to Bailuzhou, he found a very detailed introduction in the information jade pendant he bought.

The Dark Insect Clan is a native race on the Cangming Star. They are top-notch in strength, cannot transform, do not practice cultivation, and are hostile to others.

“Alas, if it weren’t for the strong men of Pengling Sect leading their disciples to fight to the death and block the tide, the entire Bailu Continent would have fallen in less than half a month and turned into a pool of blood and flesh. In the end, although three insect nests were destroyed, the forces in Bailu Continent also suffered heavy losses. In fact, the biggest loss came from Pengling Sect, and even a strong man at the Nascent Soul stage died in the battle.”

Thinking of this, as he spoke, Xu Feng couldn't help but reveal sadness in his eyes.

As outsiders, although the human race is very powerful and has taken root on Cangming Star, it is actually surrounded by enemies. External threats are endless and every step is difficult. Among the powerful native races, only a very small number are truly friendly to humans.

Lu Luan was also feeling a little heavy-hearted. After all, the one who fell was a strong man of the human race. He whispered, "Brother Xu, let's go."

Then the two of them flew out of the market.

"After that great war, I don't know how many corpses were buried underground, so now many people are looking for opportunities here. This market is where the monks who come here do business." Xu Feng said.

"How far is the Pijia Gate from here?" Lu Luan asked.

"At our speed, it will take about three hours."

Then the two of them flew quickly through the air.

Mountains kept flying past beneath me.

Looking down from high in the sky, although the earth is still lush and green and full of vitality, if you look closely, you can find the devastation left behind by many wars.

But as time passed, it was covered with green again.

Judging from the situation, I'm afraid that in a few dozen or even a hundred years, these traces will be completely hidden.

"Brother Lu, let's fly lower. There are many independent cultivators, monsters and demons in this place with ill intentions," Xu Feng looked at him with some worry in his eyes.

The higher he flew, the greater the chance of being discovered, and he didn't want to cause any trouble.

Lu Luan also followed his wish, and the two began to lower their altitude.

"After we have resolved this matter, we can go to the edge of Bailuzhou first."

Lu looked at him and said in his heart. Although more than 30 years have passed since the war, the remaining force has not completely dissipated, and there are still small-scale conflicts continuing.

He also wanted to see what was so special about other races that were evil to humans.

Since they kept a low profile along the way, the trip went very smoothly. After three hours, they arrived at a mountain range shrouded in gray fog.

What is different from the barren mountains and wilderness is that here you can still see many traces of the lives of immortal cultivators, and there are also the remains of a discontinuous gray and dilapidated city wall. You can also see many large holes dozens or hundreds of feet wide on the ground and the mountains.

"Brother Lu, we are almost there."

Xu Feng slowed down.

Lu Luan kept frowning, because he could clearly feel that there were various lingering spiritual thoughts in this area. Looking at those deep holes, he was a little dazed.

Xu Feng explained, "Brother Lu, these were left behind by the Dark Insects. This used to be a prosperous area with a fairy city standing here. Cultivators from hundreds of thousands of miles around would come here to trade. However, in that battle, it was captured by the Dark Insects, and all the people inside became their blood food, so there is still some resentment and evil spirit left."

"An entire fairy city?"

Lu Luan's expression couldn't help but be moved, because the number of deaths was simply impossible to estimate. Take Liushuang City for example, the Li family alone, which was not very powerful, had two million members.

Then he fell from the air and stood on the city wall.

At this time, the gaps between the bricks are covered with moss, and wild grass is swaying, making it look full of vitality. Only the hideous cracks everywhere are silently telling the story of what happened here in the past.

Xu Feng landed beside him and casually took a piece of debris. With a slight force, the debris turned into powder. After clapping his hands, he said to him, "These were not ordinary stone bricks. They were made of a kind of soil mixed with many immortal materials. But with the destruction of the connected formation, the spiritual charm in them has been completely lost. They are no longer of any use."

These are all that are left in this place at this time. Anything that is slightly useful has been taken away by the monks who came here to seek opportunities.

Lu Luan felt a sense of sadness in his heart. He looked into the city and saw some figures flashing among the ruins from time to time. They were people who came to look for treasure.

"Brother Lu, let's go."

"Ah."

The two did not stay long and continued on their way.

The Pijiamen's power is not in this city, but in the surrounding areas.
