Catalog of Destruction

————For the sake of laziness

As for why Shi Xuan didn't fly to Penglai Island with sword light? Except for the Wanxiang Shadowless Sword, which has only seventeen levels of restrictions, it is relatively slow to use as a flying magical weapon. Shi Xuan's cultivation in the out-of-body stage alone can only control the magical weapon to fly for dozens of miles, and Penglai Island is only a few kilometers away from Mingyue Island. There are hundreds of miles of sea route, and there are few islands where you can stop and rest - those islands are occupied by families established by the inner disciples of the Penglai sect, and outsiders are not allowed to go to the islands.

Therefore, Shi Xuan booked a room on a large ship bound for Penglai Island and prepared to leave ten days in advance for Penglai Island. Of course, this ship does not sail directly to Penglai Island, but can only go to Yingke Island outside Penglai Island. At that time, Penglai disciples will come to pick up the monks to the main island.

Arriving at the port, because the day for Penglai Island's recruitment ceremony is approaching, the port is now full of monks, waiting for the time to board the ship.

The Yingzhou sect and the Penglai sect recruit disciples on the same date, which does not give people the opportunity to join one sect and then join the next one. For those monks who can't even make the most basic choices, it's better not to practice Taoism.

From Mingyue Island to Penglai Island, if nothing happens all the way, it will take about two days to arrive. The ships with fixed wind formations are roughly the same speed as the fast ships Shi Xuan saw in his previous life.

Just to be on the safe side, Shi Xuan set out ten days in advance to avoid encountering violent storms on the sea route, which would delay the opportunity. As for the monks who came to the Yingzhou Sect, a few took the teleportation array to the islands around the Yingzhou Sect, and most of them set out more than a month ago. It takes more than a month to get from Mingyue Island to Yingzhou Island!

There are seven or eight conspicuous ships parked in the port. They are all tall and large ships with a length of nearly a hundred feet. They have wind formations fixed on their sails, and good defensive formations are fixed on the ships. , Ordinary strong winds and waves really do not pose much of a threat to them.

Shi Xuan took a fancy to this, so he booked a room on one of the ships and used three low-grade spiritual stones. You must know that this was only a two-day voyage.

When the time came, Shi Xuan followed the monks lined up in front and slowly walked towards the ship he had ordered. After a while, he got on the ship and reached the deck.

Shi Xuan's room was on the second floor of the boat building. It was neither good nor bad. Although he still had nearly a hundred spiritual stones, it was really pointless to spend a lot of money to stay in a room with more than a dozen low-grade spiritual stones. People attract attention, but if you go to the room below the deck, not only the environment is poor, but the safety is not guaranteed. After all, there are several people in one room.

Therefore, Shi Xuan finally booked a medium, not bad room.

Entering the room, it was smaller than the cave where Shi Xuan lived before. A bed, a table, and a few stools took up the entire space. The only advantage was that there was a window. When you pushed it open hard, you could smell the slightly salty smell. The smelly but refreshing sea breeze.

After finishing his lunch class, Shi Xuan heard someone knocking on the door, and then heard someone shouting: "Is there anyone in the room?" But it was a very unfamiliar voice.

Although the ship was heavily guarded, Shi Xuan did not dare to be careless. He secretly prepared the Golden Dragon Armor Charm and hid the Shadowless Sword in his sleeve before walking over and opening the door.

Outside the door was a handsome young man with a handsome appearance and a friendly smile, which was quite sunny. When he saw Shi Xuan opening the door, he hurriedly raised his hands and saluted: "I am Zhang Haiping, from Hailong Island. This time I am going to Penglai Island. I attended a Dharma conference for recruiting disciples and lived next door. I thought that I might become my fellow disciples in the future, so I took the liberty to come and say hello. Are you going to Penglai Island?"

Shi Xuan also answered with a smile: "I'm Shi Xuan, Taoist friend Zhang is so polite. He is going to Penglai Island. If he can become a senior brother in the future, please ask Brother Zhang to take care of him." Of course, Shi Xuan's inner guard was not over. relaxed.

The two of them were standing at the door chatting. To be honest, apart from the need to be wary of strangers, Zhang Haiping was a person who made people feel comfortable in his words and deeds. It was obvious that he was a person with a wide range of connections.

After chatting for a while, Zhang Haiping suddenly suggested: "Brother Shi Xian, why don't we get to know the fellow Taoists in the nearby rooms one by one? After all, there are three gangs of heroes. We have no relatives on Penglai Island. How can we compete with those family members? Even if you are lucky enough to join the Penglai sect, you will only be bullied within the sect. Now that you know a few more Taoists, you can have more help when you are in trouble, right?"

Shi Xuan somewhat understood what Zhang Haiping meant. To put it bluntly, it was to form a small group. Especially when you first arrive in a strange place and have no friends or friends, human nature is to stick together for survival. At this time, extending a hand of friendship is the best way to win the favor of others.

Shi Xuan is all-powerful in setting up a small group. It would be great to meet a few friends. He is not a solitary person who doesn't like to talk. But judging from Zhang Haiping's thoughts, he might want to be the leader in the small group. .

Seeing that Shi Xuan did not object to his words, Zhang Haiping was very happy. He enthusiastically pulled Shi Xuan to the opposite room and knocked on the door three times. A young man's voice soon came from the door: "Who is it?"

Zhang Haiping briefly explained his purpose, and the young man in the room happily opened the door. He was in his twenties, with regular features and lively eyebrows. He greeted Shi Xuan and Zhang Haiping without any restraint. : "My name is Xie Gang, and I'm from near Tidal Square. I wonder what the two eldest brothers call me?"

Shi Xuan and Zhang Haiping hurriedly told him their names. After hearing this, Xie Gang said with a smile on his face: "Brother Zhang, Brother Shi, I think you two must be in the out-of-body stage. I, a young monk in the Qi-nurturing stage, please take more care of me."

Zhang Haiping saw that this guy Xie Gang was so wise, and nodded with a smile on his face: "That's natural. Zhang has a lot of experience in breaking through the Qi nourishing stage to the out-of-body stage, and I will tell you about it later, Brother Xie Xian."

Seeing such a good thing, Xie Gang stepped forward even more enthusiastically: "Brother Zhang, I see you are not very old. I wonder at what age did you achieve your breakthrough?"

These words seemed to scratch Zhang Haiping's itch. He said proudly: "Zhang was already twenty-five years old when he broke through three years ago. He is not as good as those family members." His words were very modest, but his face was full of shame. The red light had betrayed him.

Xie Gang was just flattering him casually, but he didn't expect that Zhang Haiping would actually break through at such a young age. Now his face showed genuine respect: "If Brother Zhang had the upbringing of his family, he might have broken through at the age of twenty or so." ”

After saying that, he bowed deeply: "I am already twenty-two years old, and I am still a little far away from the out-of-body stage. Please give me more advice in the future, Brother Zhang."

The two of them were like friends meeting each other in the mountains and rivers. They talked happily. For this kind of monk who was still a stranger, Shi Xuan always listened more and talked less. Naturally, he just stood beside him and occasionally exchanged a few words.

However, Zhang Haiping did not forget his purpose and quickly encouraged Xie Gang. The three of them walked to the other side of Shi Xuan's room and knocked lightly on the door.

A female voice came from the door: "Who? What's the matter?"

Zhang Haiping also stated his purpose of coming. The woman in the room was silent for a long time before opening the door with a creak. This woman was probably under twenty years old. She had pretty features and youthful appearance. Her head was lowered and she seemed to be counting the flowers in the shoes on her feet.

In the world of cultivation, starting from the Qi nourishing stage, one can slightly adjust one's appearance. To the out-of-body stage, changes in the soul can bring about changes in the body. At this stage, monsters can transform certain parts of the body into human bodies. In the Qi-entraining stage, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is absorbed and the physical body is tempered, which can also improve the appearance. The monster can basically transform into a human form, but traces of the monster can still be seen in some parts. And if a monster wants to completely transform into a human form, it can only reach the golden elixir stage.

Therefore, in the world of cultivation, monks are generally good-looking, especially women. Of course, there are also many monks with poor or weird looks due to special skills and psychological reasons.

Seeing that the female monk didn't speak, Shi Xuan and others introduced themselves one by one. When they all finished speaking, the female monk turned red and held her hands in her hands: "A few, a few, a few, fellow Taoist, okay. I, My name is Zhou Dielan. "You stuttered. Could it be a stutter?

However, Shi Xuan quickly overturned this conclusion. As the few people chatted and became familiar with each other, Zhou Dielan spoke much more fluently. It seemed that he was too shy just now.

According to her own words, she came from Yaoguang Island, was eighteen years old, and was in the Qi nourishing stage. I came here with a good sister who lives on the third floor with several relatives from her family.

"Why don't we all go have a meal together? It's on the first floor of the ship." Seeing that the time was just right, Zhang Haiping immediately enthusiastically invited a few people to go with him.

"This is exactly what I mean." Xie Gang immediately agreed.

Shi Xuan was also going to have a meal, but when Zhang Haiping invited him, he agreed.

Zhou Dielan seemed to want to refuse, but couldn't say the words to refuse. Her face turned red and she finally nodded in agreement.

After closing the door, the four of them chatted and walked downstairs. Xie Gang was a very lively person, and he was the talkative one on the way. Zhou Dielan was indeed quite shy, and just listened silently, occasionally speaking like a mosquito. The voice answered. Zhang Haiping was accustomed to giving orders, and in a short period of time he made the other two listen to him.

The four of them found a relatively quiet place, ordered food, and talked about the recruiting process.

"Brother Zhang, Brother Shi, I heard that this is the meeting of the Cold-faced Thunder Lord, hehe, now we have a chance." Xie Gang had no idea that he was two years older than Shi Xuan.

Shi Xuan had received this news from Ming Qingyue half a year ago. At this time, he did not show off and said calmly: "Shi also knows about this."

Xie Gang continued to talk excitedly about the news he had received: "I heard that the cold-faced Lei Jun and the big families in the Penglai sect are very at odds. I'm afraid they will be defeated this time."
