Catalog of Destruction

There was pitch black in front of him, the kind of black that completely absorbed even the light. It made people's hair stand on end at first glance. There was a howling sound of fragmentation and shattering in his ears. In addition, the sky was spinning and upside down. Even with Shi Xuan's current physical condition, he could feel it. It was very uncomfortable. Fortunately, the teleportation array itself had its own protection, otherwise the space storm generated during teleportation alone would have wiped out Shi Xuan.

This situation soon ended, and light shone in front of his eyes again. After a while, Shi Xuan recovered from the dizzy tinnitus and took stock of everything around him.

There is also a teleportation array similar to that in a cave, but it is not in a cave, but inside a tall building. The top of the hall, which is more than three feet high, is supported by thick stone pillars around the teleportation array. In addition, Outside, there is a quaint long table and three stools in the corner. The decoration and furnishings are all old and worn, as if they have not been used for a long time.

When Shi Xuan came to a strange place, he was naturally cautious. He first carried the Golden Dragon Armor Charm and picked up the Ecstasy Flag. He did not dare to walk around casually. However, after waiting for a long time, no one came, so he had to go out of the hall door and follow the steps. Walk forward slowly along a straight road.

After walking about a hundred meters, there was a stone gate in front of him, and voices and laughter came from inside. After Shi Xuan heard it, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief. At least there was no language barrier, but he didn't dare to be careless. Slowly and cautiously walking through the stone gate, he immediately saw a lot of gorgeously dressed humans, chatting and laughing in twos and threes and heading to other stone gates respectively. Shi Xuan was relieved for the rest of his life. Well, they are human beings. . Then Shi Xuan walked into the hall neatly, and blended in with the people while others were not paying attention.

What Shi Xuan was most afraid of before was that after the teleportation, he found himself surrounded by spiritual beasts and monsters. His second fear was that the sea of ​​blood, the mountain of bones, etc. appeared in front of him, and then he was either surrounded by willows, or covered in blood. The gloomy monk praised it with a smile, "Good material."

It's not that I don't believe in Taoist Priest Diantquanzi. Although the Taoist Priest's cultivation level is unknown and he looks like an ordinary mortal, from his experience and Chu Yuyan's description, there is no doubt that he is more than ten times stronger than himself. If he wants to harm himself, Just move your hands lightly and don't have to bend around. What I'm afraid of is that the Taoist priest may not have been back for decades or hundreds of years, and there may be some changes here.

Now it seems that, at least for humans, there are only one or two evil monks looking at their attire, and they quickly walked to another stone gate without paying attention to Shi Xuan's appearance. Not only the evil monks did not pay attention, but also other monks. Most of them had no time to take a look at Shi Xuan who appeared quietly. They were talking and joking with their companions, while walking slowly toward their respective stone gates.

When Shi Xuan walked into the hall and looked back and forth, only a few people noticed Shi Xuan, but they did not come over to say hello. They seemed not to be interested in Shi Xuan and the others at all. Instead, it was the charm that Shi Xuan held in his hand. The banner made them look at it a few more times.

Shi Xuan silently observed this hall and the people who noticed him. This hall was about ten times the size of the one he just came out of. There were ten stone doors on the left and right. He was the third stone door from the left. Coming out, there is a big stone door at both ends.

These monks either entered through the big stone gate on the right side of Shixuan, and then walked to the small stone gates on the left and right in a hurry, but most of them concentrated on the two or three small stone gates; or they came out of those small stone gates to chat with their companions. Walking slowly towards the big stone gate on the right, I noticed that most of the people in Shixuan were these people.

Shi Xuan deduced with simple logic that the big stone gate on the right should be the entrance and the exit. Behind those small stone gates is everyone's destination, but the big stone gate on the left is unknown and almost no one can see people going there.

The clothes of the monks in this hall are either bright, gorgeous, or elegant, and they are all expensive at first sight. The specific cultivation level cannot be seen through Shi Xuan's Qi Watching Technique, because most of the techniques are capable of condensing the Qi. There were only a few people dressed as nouveau riche, and Shi Xuan could tell that they were in the period of nourishing their energy.

In this situation, Shi Xuan naturally looked calm and leisurely, and calmly blended into the group of monks heading for the exit, but he did not dare to get too close to the monks around him for fear of arousing hostility from others.

The exit big stone gate is getting closer and closer.

…………

Two monks wearing black uniforms walked out from the big stone door at the other end. The shorter monk looked at the monks coming and going in the hall with envy on his face: "I said, Wang Qi, these monks are really rich. Ah, the spiritual stone transferred once is our income for more than a month."

The tall monk curled his lips: "How many monks are there in the Qi-nourishing stage and the out-of-body stage who can afford the teleportation array? Thousands of monks come and go in this Tide Square every day, but there are only a hundred or so people here a day. Use. Wu Laosi, you have to sigh like this every time, why don't you think about how many of them are disciples of the sect, how many of them are descendants of big families, and how many of them get a chance and get rich overnight, there are hundreds of them. It would be nice to have one in there.”

Wu Laosi sighed: "Aren't I envious? If I were born in a big family, oh, just an ordinary family, why would I have to work so hard to guard this teleportation array every month, earn those eight low-grade spiritual stones, and even each I don’t even have enough money for Yue’s soup and medicine, damn, I don’t even have enough money to use the teleportation array!”

"Hey, you still want to use the teleportation array, Wu Laosi, you know that it takes ten low-grade spirit stones to go to the nearest Langya Island, not to mention the large teleportation array to the Western Wilderness, which requires at least one high-grade spirit stone. You may not be able to save enough in this lifetime. Let's go home and practice as soon as possible, and strive to make a name for ourselves at the ceremony of recruiting disciples for Penglai Sect and Yingzhou Sect in half a year. If we can enter the sect, we will be superior to others and won't have to work so hard every month." Wang Qi was a little fascinated at the end.

"Superior to others? Aren't the children of those families the majority of the three major sects?" This time it was Wu Laosi's turn to ridicule Wang Qi.

"Oh, who cares? Once you enter the sect, at least you will have good skills and good magic, which is better than the junks we bought at the market stalls. You may even get low-grade magic tools. Let's go home and practice." The tall Wang Qi is a man of action, and he pulled Wu Laosi to the exit.

Wu Laosi shook off Wang Qi: "Are you crazy? You don't want to guard the teleportation array? If you are discovered, half of the spirit stones for this month will be deducted!"

"What is there to guard? You know that we were excluded to guard the teleportation array from the Middle Earth. It is a dilapidated place where no one has teleported here for more than a hundred years, and no one wants to teleport there. Hey, it must be that when we were guarding the teleportation array of Hailong Island, the spirit stones rewarded by those rich monks made people jealous. Damn, there are more than ten low-grade spirit stones a month!" Wang Qi became more and more angry.

Wu Laosi also came to his senses after hearing this, and cursed a few words, and then said to Wang Qi: "Let's go home and practice. I have never seen anyone guard that teleportation array!"

The two walked towards the exit while cursing.

………

As soon as Shi Xuan followed the monk in front of him out of the big stone gate, he felt his eyes bright and his spirit was shocked.

Above his head was a bright and refreshing blue sky, with a red sun in the middle. The sunlight was not dazzling, and it sprinkled warmly on his body, making people feel like taking a nap. A dozen feet away on the left hand side is a cliff. Below the cliff, the waves are rolling, constantly hitting the mountain wall, leaving white foam-like waves and bursts of thunder-like sounds.

Looking from here, the distance is still the boundless indigo sea, dotted with the shadows of other islands, unknown seabirds singing and flying back and forth on the sea, tall sailboats are rushing towards this island from the farthest distance at an incredible speed, and I think some formations are fixed, while some small fishing boats are dragging fishing nets in the distant and remote sea.

Smelling the damp and slightly fishy sea breeze, watching the monks flying to this island in the sky or driving magic tools, Shi Xuan's heart is broadened, taking the soul-bewitching flag, and walking to the stone road on the right.

This is a market built on the southernmost side of the island, stretching from the port to the cliff, so Shi Xuan, who walks down from the cliff, has a panoramic view of the layout of the entire market.

The layout of three vertical and four horizontal streets, plus dozens of stone avenues that spread out, formed an extremely prosperous market. The cultivators from the air, the sea, and other places on the island crowded the market. Of course, most of them were ordinary people. From the results of Shi Xuan's observation of Qi along the way, people below the Qi-cultivation stage accounted for four or five tenths. Because they were in the market of cultivation, most of them practiced some boxing and kicking, which could be considered the body-building stage.

People in the Qi-cultivation stage accounted for about three or four tenths, and the remaining one or two tenths were cultivators whose Qi Shi Xuan could not see, and they were estimated to be out-of-body stage and above.

Walking slowly on the stone avenue down the cliff, there were all kinds of extremely strange sights around. After coming out of the big stone gate, more and more people looked at him. As for why, Shi Xuan had no idea at all.

On both sides of the avenue were some cultivators in the Qi-cultivation stage who were setting up stalls. With a cautious attitude of watching and listening more, but not asking too many questions, Shi Xuan randomly found a young cultivator who looked very pretty, squatted in front of her stall, and casually picked up a beautiful feather to look at.

The pretty woman immediately introduced enthusiastically: "Senior, this cock-tailed monkey's tail feather is from a second-level monster. It is the best choice for refining self-defense feather clothes, and it is not expensive at all. It is only ten pieces for one low-grade spirit stone." While speaking, she looked at Shi Xuan with eager eyes.

Low-grade spirit stone? What is that? Shi Xuan looked through it without expression, put it down casually, stood up and prepared to leave.

The pretty woman hurriedly stood up and said anxiously: "Senior, senior, this can be reduced. Otherwise, you can take eighty crystal beads. If you don't like it, you can take a look at the others. I found them in the dangerous places on the west side of the island. They are very good for practicing magic tools and elixirs."
