Chapter 290 Mutation
Cost: Two thousand good deeds.
Clues: At the junction of Longzhou and Liangzhou in Qi State, a place full of vitality and where peonies bloom, there are obviously more men than women, which can be connected to the pure Yang inner energy.
Five clues in total.
The first of them was the clue Zhou Heng got from Li Yuanxing.
This can be regarded as limiting the target within a certain range and giving some characteristics to make it easier to find.
With these clues, as long as you use the right methods, it is not difficult to find the land of pure Yang.
Of course, Zhou Heng had not thought of making a wish directly to obtain the exact location of the Land of Pure Yang, but the consumption of good deeds was really "exciting", so it was more economical and more cost-effective to choose clues.
He is now relatively short of good deeds and has to be careful in his calculations.
In the past few months, he had been preparing for the Chaoyang Reception. He basically stayed in one place and didn't encounter any ghosts or evil things.
Zhou Tian Xunjie Division did not assign him a task, and the share of good work he received from Xingguang Bridge was not as large as expected.
——After all, there are too few people in the organization, and there are many people using the Starlight Bridge to teleport in non-emergency situations. If you divide it into one thousandth, there will not be many good deeds at all.
In the end, there was no increase in good deeds, and there was basically only consumption.
Therefore, he is no longer as "rich" as before. After making this wish, he only has more than 4,000 good deeds left.
"In this case, before reaching the Secret Sixth Level, I should kill some ghosts and evil creatures and accumulate some good deeds." Zhou Heng thought to himself: "Otherwise, it will be difficult to obtain good deeds after reaching the Secret Sixth Level."
Before the time comes to activate the two lucrative permissions of "good deeds trading" and "task release", the main way for him to obtain good deeds is to kill ghosts and evil objects.
According to the rules of the Zhoutian Star Chart, after breaking through to the Secret Sixth Level, and then killing the third-level ghosts and evil objects, you will gain very little good deeds, and the ghosts and evil objects at the same level are extremely difficult to kill, which has also led to many third-level and even lower-level ghosts and evil beings. One of the reasons why heavenly beings have "a shortage of good deeds".
"No, in this case, if you start a good deed transaction in the future, I'm afraid it will cause some problems?"
Zhou Heng suddenly thought of something and thought to himself: "Since it is much easier to obtain good deeds at the lower third level than at the middle level, as long as the good deeds can be freely traded, can the lower third level "do it for you" if you are at the middle level?
"The masters of the middle and third levels can use various means to help the lower third level warriors to kill ghosts and evil objects, and then obtain good deeds from the lower third level warriors. This is undoubtedly much easier than killing the ghosts of the same realm by themselves.
"In addition, you can also use a lot of things that are no longer insignificant to the middle and third-grade warriors to obtain a lot of good deeds from the lower-third-grade warriors. This is a sure profit.
"But this situation is naturally unequal. There is no doubt that low-level third-level warriors are at a disadvantage when facing middle-level warriors, and their actual status is also unequal. Middle-level third-level warriors can help, and they can also exploit them. .
"Although there may not be similar situations now, at this time, the good deeds transaction is controlled by the two Dao Lords Qinglong and Tianyi. The good deeds transaction must be carried out in the whole gathering. Generally speaking, it will not go too far.
"It's just that if we open the door to the free trade of good deeds and allow good deeds to circulate privately without restriction, then I'm afraid something will happen. Laissez-faire freedom often leads to the exploitation of the weak by the strong..."
These issues are by no means trivial. Zhou Heng had not considered them carefully before, but now that he thought about them, he found that once the free trade of good deeds was started, it would probably cause a series of chain reactions, and even cause chaos in the entire Zhou Tian Xunjie Division.
The same goes for the free release of tasks.
"Fortunately, I didn't turn on these two permissions when I was hot." Zhou Heng thought: "I still have to wait until I can master more permissions, or have the ability to restrict the use of permissions, before I can open them.
"Next, let's find the Pure Yang Land first. Before we can break through to the Secret Sixth Level, we can eliminate more ghosts and evil things. Well, there are also newly spawned monsters and accumulate some good deeds."
…
Zhou Heng originally planned to find it by himself based on these clues, but he soon discovered that he couldn't find it with his own strength alone. Even if the characteristics were clear, it was extremely difficult to find the place.
After all, this is not the earth that has entered the Internet information age. Even the official maps are not very accurate. Under such conditions, it is too difficult to accurately find a location.
Apart from anything else, it was difficult for Zhou Heng to determine the general position of the light.
The border between Longzhou and Liangzhou is more than 8,000 miles long. In such a huge area, there are mountains, rivers, woodlands, towns, and various environments. There are also many places rich in peonies.
If Zhou Heng wants to determine where the land of pure sun is, he has to go over mountains and ridges and travel eight thousand miles to find it. There is still no navigation and positioning. If he goes there, he will not even know where he is. Not sure.
too difficult.
Unless you can fly, the intricate terrain and environment of these eight thousand miles will bring great difficulties to find the land of pure sun. You may not even notice it if you step outside the boundary line when taking action.
Therefore, Zhou Heng thought about it and decided to make an appointment with Cheng Jiangjian.
Explore together.
Cheng Jiangjian is a "fairy with many treasures".
There are countless secret treasures hidden in her gourd, and of course there are also treasures for manned flights.
I had used it before in the cave world.
As long as you can fly in the air and overlook the landforms, the difficulty of searching will be greatly reduced.
But after returning to Mount Taihua, Zhou Heng learned that Cheng Jiangjian had also gone down the mountain soon after he left. As for where exactly he went, it was unknown.
Fortunately, when passing by Zixia Peak, he met You Ziheng and took three white crane feathers from him, which could be used as a flying secret treasure, valid for one month.
So, after making these preparations, Zhou Heng went to Longzhou through the Ziwei Palace Starlight Bridge.
…
Longzhou is located in the northwest of Daqi, and further ahead is Liangzhou, which leads directly to the Western Wilderness Forbidden Land, also known as "Xiliang".
The area of Liangzhou is very large, almost equivalent to two and a half Pingzhous, but there are many ghosts and evil things, and the products are very poor. Except for some core areas, it can be said that it is desolate everywhere.
There are only one county, three prefectures and twenty-seven counties in the whole state, which is less than 20% of Pingzhou.
Longzhou is better, but it is still much worse than the prefectures and counties in the Central Plains. It has an area that is 20% larger than Pingzhou, but there are only one county and seven prefectures.
Therefore, Zhou Heng had no interest in sightseeing after arriving in Longzhou. He went directly to Longzhou County City to find the industrial shops of Chunyang Palace, asked for some information, and after confirming four general areas, he turned the white crane feather into cloud light and flew away.
This shows the advantage of a large sect. The industry of Chunyang Palace is spread throughout the entire Daqi, which means that the eyes and ears are everywhere, and it is undoubtedly much more convenient to find something.
Three of the five clues of Chunyang Land can be obtained through inquiries.
That is: "The place where vitality is extremely abundant", "The place where peony flowers are in full bloom", and "The number of men is obviously more than that of women".
Originally, even if Zhou Heng confirmed some ranges, it would be difficult to find, but now with the ability to fly, this trouble has been solved.
Next, you only need to verify these four areas based on the induction of Chunyang power, and you should be able to find Chunyang Land soon.
Li Yuanxing probably never dreamed that Zhou Heng, who he wanted to use, was about to find Chunyang Land in less than two days after getting a clue.
However, the search process was not as easy as Zhou Heng had expected.
Because the sky in Longzhou is different from that in the Central Plains.
When he was flying in the sky, he could clearly feel that there seemed to be something extremely dangerous hanging above his head, and there was a very powerful gale at an altitude of more than 3,000 feet. If he flew too high, he might be blown down from the sky by the gale.
I think this should be due to the Ninety-Nine States Protection Formation. This formation is used to isolate the Three Kingdoms of the Central Plains from the Western Wilderness. The closer to the Western Wilderness, the greater the power.
In addition, Zhou Heng could sense from time to time that a few strong evil spirits would float in from the west while flying in the air, which were enough to instantly corrode ordinary ninth-grade and eighth-grade warriors.
However, after these evil spirits floated over, they would be blown to an altitude of more than 3,000 feet, and then disappeared, and would not affect the creatures on the ground below.
"It seems that the situation is not very optimistic. The Central Plains is fine, but the northwest is getting more and more troublesome." Zhou Heng frowned slightly and looked in the direction of Xiliang.
The evil spirit was so strong that it floated to Longzhou. It was conceivable what the situation in Xiliang was like now. The monsters that began to breed in the world might have started from Xiliang.
"Well, there may be some at the border between Liang and Long." Zhou Heng looked down at a town not far below, then pressed the cloud light and landed.
This was one of the four possible locations he had previously determined. It was a small town in Yuxiang County, Liuping Prefecture, Longzhou County.
It was called "Yuxiang Town" and was famous for its blooming peonies. Even the name of the entire county came from this town.
In addition to peonies, various medicinal herbs are also produced here, with a wide variety of species, which can be said to be full of vitality.
As for the ratio of men to women, there was no way to determine this.
Zhou Heng could only conduct on-site inspections himself.
Zhou Heng lowered the cloud light ten miles outside the town, summoned the red horse, rode forward, and soon arrived outside Yuxiang Town, but the scene he saw along the way made him feel a little confused.
The road leading to Yuxiang Town was very deserted. Not only were there no pedestrians, but there were no signs of anyone walking by recently. It seemed that no one had passed by for at least a month.
Under normal circumstances, this was almost impossible.
Although a town could be self-sufficient and did not need to go out for a short period of time, no one had passed by the road that had to be passed in and out of the town for more than a month. This was definitely not normal.
"Could it be that something happened to this town?" Zhou Heng did not rush into the town, but carefully spread his spiritual sense outside the town to perceive the situation in the town.
But he did not expect that as soon as this spiritual sense detected a general situation in the town, an invisible and powerful force suddenly emerged and involved his soul.
Then, Zhou Heng felt that the space around him began to distort, and soon formed a void vortex, which actually pulled him in directly.
In the process, he felt a familiar breath, the breath he had felt on the half finger bone that broke the seal in Huangtong Prefecture City.
Full of evil, violence, madness... This is demonic energy!
"What's going on?!"
Zhou Heng's eyes widened, looking shocked.
At the same time, he tried to release the power of the cave to wrap himself up to avoid being sucked away by the power of the vortex.
But this power was extremely strange.
The power of the cave heaven could not avoid this suction, and Zhou Heng could only watch himself being sucked into the vortex.
"Damn it! What's going on?!"
...
The black mist was heavy, covering the sky and the sun.
After Zhou Heng found himself being sucked into the void vortex, he came to a place covered by black mist on all sides, and the light was very dim.
He could only see more than ten feet ahead, and it was blurry farther.
His spiritual sense seemed to be blocked, and he could not penetrate his body at all, let alone sense and explore the outside world.
Everything here was unknown to Zhou Heng, hiding unknown dangers.
Therefore, he did not hesitate at all and directly chose to use "open the door" once, intending to leave this place.
The light gate covered by starlight opened, and Zhou Heng positioned Taihua Mountain and walked in.
When he walked out of the star gate, the mist that seemed to cover everything before suddenly disappeared, and he looked up and saw a towering mountain standing in front of him, and the palace pavilions and towers were hidden in the clouds and mist.
Zhou Heng breathed a sigh of relief and was about to go up the mountain, but he saw that the sea of clouds covering Taihua Mountain was suddenly knocked open by a golden light. From a distance, the golden top of Yuxu Peak was crushed by a giant claw that stretched out from somewhere!
The golden light just disappeared before it flew far away, and then a figure fell from the sky and fell in front of Zhou Heng. It was Cheng Jiangjian who had died.
"This..." Zhou Heng's expression froze on his face, and then he stepped back in horror, "This, this, no, this is impossible!"
Roar!
At this time, a roar came.
A red giant claw pressed down on Taihua Mountain, and the entire Yuxu Peak was pressed down on the spot.
Then another red giant claw stretched out from the void, pressing down Zixia Peak and Yuqiong Peak, and crushing them with a series of rumbling sounds.
It seemed that a giant beast was poking out from the void. Now, with only two claws, it was about to completely destroy Chunyang Palace. Zhou Heng, who had just escaped, saw it.
"No, no, how could this happen?!"
Zhou Heng retreated in fear. Suddenly, he felt that he had bumped into someone. When he turned around, he saw a face full of bookish air. It was Yan Shouyi.
"Brother, don't worry." Yan Shouyi patted Zhou Heng's shoulder and smiled, "I'm here in Chunyang Palace."
"Brother!" Zhou Heng excitedly held Yan Shouyi's palm with his right hand.
It was like grabbing a life-saving straw.
At the same time, he pinched the seal with his left hand, and his eyes lit up with golden light.
Immortal Seal Method!
Changing Heaven and Earth Method! !
"The inner demon's methods are really extraordinary!" Zhou Heng grinned.
In fact, when his consciousness was entangled by the strange power, he already knew who was attacking him.
The latter was just acting to confuse the other party.
By the way, you can also gain some proficiency.
"The inner demon 'Huo Mang' is using the evil method "Bewitching God Devouring Heart Demon Art" [Secret Sixth Grade] on you. Your soul is strong and you are proficient in spiritual martial arts. You have some understanding. Proficiency +0.001."
...
"Congratulations! You have seen through the evil method "Bewitching God Devouring Heart Demon Art" [Secret Sixth Grade] used by the inner demon 'Huo Mang' on you, and your understanding of it has deepened. Proficiency +0.5."
