After experimenting for a while, Xia Chen finally determined that as long as he raised his breath, the Nine Netherworld Patterns would appear, and they would get bigger and bigger as his breath increased, until they filled the entire Dantian.
Fortunately, there is also the Five Elements Origin Heart Restriction Formation in the Dantian, which can be used to suppress it to prevent it from spreading throughout the body.
However, if the aura is increased violently, or magical powers are used continuously, the Nine Netherworld Patterns will expand rapidly, and can even erode the original Heart Taboo Five Elements Formation.
This means that if Xia Chen uses his cultivation, he must be able to suppress the devouring of the Nine Netherworld Mark before it grows stronger.
Unless he doesn't use his cultivation at all, but how is this possible? Without using his cultivation, he can't even stand up to the light escape.
What method can be used to expel the Nine Netherworld Marks... Xia Chen sat down and thought of a solution with a frown on his face, but if he could not find the reason for the appearance of the Nine Netherworld Marks, any method would be in vain.
Do you want to give up your body? A thought crossed Xia Chen's mind, but then he shook his head.
He would never do this unless it was absolutely necessary. The physical body was not only the shell to protect the soul, but also the proof of his own existence. How could he throw it away?
After a while, Xia Chen sighed and stood up.
Since there is no other way, let's let it go and understand the situation at hand before making a plan. And although he can't use his cultivation at will, at least he can borrow the power of the four holy beasts. As long as he doesn't encounter an eighth-level magical monk, he can
Protect yourself.
After changing into a set of clean clothes from the storage space, Xia Chen thought for a while and took out two lower-grade treasure pills, intending to give them to Chen Mengzhu and Fang Jia as thanks for their help.
There is no free help in the world, only transactions that are in line with each other's interests. Xia Chen has understood this truth very well since he traveled to this world.
The reason why he was given a low-grade treasure pill instead of a better treasure was because the low-grade treasure pill was more in line with his identity as a casual cultivator who had lied before.
When Chen Mengzhu and Fang Jia saw Xia Chen again, they couldn't help being surprised.
The young man looks a little thin, but he looks very clean and tidy, with a pair of bright eyes. Although his face is ordinary, he naturally exudes an ethereal and immortal feeling, as if he is a bright and dusty star.
Mingzhu, showing her true face, looked completely different from the embarrassed and comatose appearance just now.
"Hey, don't you have a storage bag? How did you change your clothes?" Fang Jia asked, looking up and down at Xia Chen.
Xia Chen stretched out his hand, with an inconspicuous ring on his ring finger, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, I still have a storage ring, otherwise I would be embarrassed to see others."
He took out the two treasure pills and handed them to the two women respectively, once again expressing his help.
Fang Jia was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that this casual cultivator was quite good. She suddenly smiled and accepted it after saying a few polite words. She was not a core child in the Fang family and was allocated very few resources, so even if it was a low-grade treasure pill,
It is also a very precious treasure to her.
Chen Mengzhu did not answer, shook his head and said: "Fellow Daoist Xia, I didn't save you because I wanted to repay you. Besides, I was just doing it casually, and it didn't take much effort. You are just a casual cultivator, so it is definitely not easy to accumulate some pills. I can't want you.
Such a valuable thing."
Fang Jia was surprised and said: "Mengzhu, you saved his life and only accepted a low-grade treasure pill from him. How valuable is it?"
"Miss Fang is right." Xia Chen said smoothly, "In your opinion, it is just a casual thing, but in my opinion, it is a life-saving grace. If the treasure pill is gone, you can practice it again, but if you lose your life, you can't find it.
Come back, Miss Chen, just accept it. If you still think it's valuable, I just want to know about the situation in Wanlunhai. The two girls can tell me in detail. Besides, I know nothing about geography, so I would like to
I need to use your strength to get out of here."
When he said this, Chen Mengzhu felt a little embarrassed. She was no longer polite, took the low-grade treasure pill, and said hesitantly: "Isn't Fellow Daoist Xia also a monk from Wanlunhai? Why does he seem to be so unfamiliar with this place?"
Xia Chen made up his words: "To tell you the truth, I grew up on a small island and have never left it since I was born. There is no one else on the island, only my master and me, but my master is a very charming person."
A lonely person, he never told me about the world outside the island, and strictly prohibited me from going out. Later, I ran out secretly once, and accidentally encountered a storm on the sea, and was attacked by sea monsters, so I passed out... and then
I’m here.”
This reason was not a clever one, but when Chen Mengzhu and Fang Jia looked at each other, they both believed it, and there was some sympathy in their eyes.
There is no other reason. The main reason is that Wanlun Sea is too big. Even the Chen family and the Fang family, which are big families on the sixth-level island, only control a very small part of the sea area. No matter what happens outside, it is possible.
.
Of course, this has a lot to do with the two women's experience and knowledge. If it were an experienced monk, they would naturally be able to detect loopholes.
"For the Wanlun Sea, I think Fellow Daoist Xia doesn't have a very clear concept yet." Chen Mengzhu hesitated and explained, "As the name suggests, the Wanlun Sea is the ocean, and it is a very big ocean. As for how big it is, no one may
There will be precise information, at least the charts that our Chen family and Fang family have are only a very small part of what we know."
"Hmm..." Xia Chen nodded. When he was in the Yanzhao Alliance, he also collected information about Wanlun Hai, so he knew more or less about it.
Chen Mengzhu said: "There are countless monsters in the Wanlun Sea, as well as endless resources and secret realms. This is the basis for the cultivation of monks in the Wanlun Sea. However, the ocean is much more dangerous than the land. Although the resources may be richer, the dangers will also be there."
Multiplied."
"The Wanlun Sea is boundless and vast, so there are countless islands. These islands are large and small. The large ones may be tens of billions of miles in radius, equivalent to a continent, and the small ones may be only a few hundred miles, or even only a few hundred feet, or several
Ten feet."
"Most of the monks practice on the islands to survive and develop. There are also a few monks who open cave sects under the sea, and some are stationed in the sky. In short, there are many situations, but the island is still the main one."
"Most of the monks in Wanlunhai are sects, families and other organizations, and they also have fixed places to stay. There are also a large number of monks who are casual cultivators. However, the situation of casual cultivators is quite different. They may not live anywhere.
It is also relatively difficult to settle down and obtain resources.”
Speaking of this, Chen Mengzhu couldn't help but glance at Xia Chen, but saw that the other person had a pensive look on his face and didn't seem to care.
Fang Jia kept listening and couldn't help but say: "According to the convention, the islands are divided into spheres of influence according to the strongest monks. From level one to level eight, they represent the corresponding monk levels. High-level islands have different effects on low-level islands.
A certain amount of control power to avoid excessive consumption due to internal fighting between monks over resources. After all, the monsters in the ocean are the natural enemies of the monks."
"Do the monsters here often attack monks?" Xia Chen asked.
"You don't know?" Fang Jia said in surprise, "Yes, I almost forgot, you are just a young cultivator who grew up on a desert island. The monsters in Wanlun Sea are very ferocious. And they often gather in groups.
Attacking the monks in groups is very systematic. It is not uncommon for many islands to be captured by monsters. This has been the case since ancient times."
"Especially in recent decades, attacks by monsters have become more frequent and violent." Chen Mengzhu said helplessly, "We have heard from family elders that monsters used to fight each other, but now they more often attack monks together.
This has greatly increased the pressure on most forces."
As a person at the peak of the third level of supernatural power, she was originally expected to become a core child of the Chen family. However, because the monster attacks became more and more intense and frequent, the pressure on the family increased greatly, so the policy of the superior over the inferior was implemented more strictly.
Only then did she get excluded.
Xia Chen's eyes showed surprise, he didn't expect the monsters in Wanlun Sea to be so rampant.
Although there are countless monsters in the Black Triangle, most of them only guard their own territory. Only those who actively provoke them or offend their territory will be attacked.
The Wanlunhai attacks human monks in groups, and they no longer look like monsters.
Chen Mengzhu said: "This island is called Twin Crystal Island. It is a trial place jointly owned by my Chen family, Fang family, and four other families. In another month, according to the past rules, there will be four-level demons."
The beast with blue water and golden eyes swims here to lay its eggs. After laying its eggs, it will be temporarily severely injured. We can just join forces to kill it, and then take back the eggs of the beast with blue eyes and golden eyes, which is equivalent to completing the trial."
Xia Chen was slightly startled and said in surprise: "You six disciples of the third level of magical power join forces to kill a seriously injured level 4 monster, is this considered a trial?"
"Yes." Fang Jia said exaggeratedly, "This is already a very dangerous trial. If it wasn't to accompany Mengzhu, I wouldn't dare to come at all."
Chen Mengzhu said: "If I hadn't wanted to break through to the fourth level of magical power with the help of the pressure of the fourth level monster, I wouldn't have chosen such a dangerous trial." He couldn't help but sigh a little.
Xia Chen was speechless, thinking that if this could be considered a trial, then you two girls should be thrown into a desperate situation. Faced with endless ghosts and corrosive Yin Qi, you will know what the real danger is.
He asked: "Since Twin Crystal Island is a common trial place for the six major families, why don't we see anyone else but you two?"
Chen Mengzhu said: "I want to come here in advance to observe the environment of the Twin Crystal Island. I also want to find a place with no people to practice. At the same time, I want to see if I can make a few traps and kill the blue-eyed gold after it lays eggs.
If you look at the beast with eyes, you will have greater confidence. As for them, they will not arrive for at least half a month."
"As for me, of course I came with Mengzhu to prevent her from being lonely." Fang Jia hugged Chen Mengzhu's shoulders and said with a smile, as if he was not here to test and kill the fourth-level monsters, but rather touring the mountains and rivers.
.
Xia Chen nodded and stopped asking questions. He had no interest in the so-called trials of the two little girls.
If it weren't for his ignorance of the surrounding geographical conditions, Xia Chen would have planned to let Qinglong take him to fly away.
After learning about the situation in Wanlunhai from the two women, Xia Chen had already made plans. The top priority was to find a place to settle down and then find a way to get rid of the Nine Netherworld Patterns in his body.
I don’t know if I can use the Luosheng Pan to teleport back to the temporary dojo in the Wanlunhai. After all, the distance is too far.
But even if he could teleport back, Xia Chen felt that it was not the right time. Originally, he thought Lord Jiuyouming was dead, but now he felt that it was difficult to tell. At least the Nine Netherworld Patterns in his body required him to be careful enough.
