The Zhanzhu Mountains span the entire state from south to north, stretching for millions of miles. They are one of the nine dragon veins in the state. With the main line of the Zhanzhu Mountains as the center, thousands of huge mountain systems extend outward, just like a thick
Like the small branches growing out of the tree trunks, some of these branch mountain systems are tens of thousands of miles long, and some are only a few hundred miles long, and they all grow close to the mountains.【】
Looking at the mountains, the peaks are stacked upon each other, majestic and spectacular, the scenery is magical and beautiful, and thousands of trees are vying for glory. In these mountains with millions of miles around, there are countless spiritual treasures, and there are many spiritual veins with strong aura, and there are countless
There are pure magical elixirs and endless precious ores. This is a treasure house condensed with the essence of nature. It is also a paradise for countless powerful monsters and a forbidden place for all human warriors.
In the Zhanzhu Mountains, the fifth-level monsters are as numerous as stars, the seventh- and eighth-order monsters can be seen everywhere, and the ninth-order monsters are tens of thousands. Only the powerful holy beast is the king of the mountain. If it is intended
Breaking into their territory is absolutely a life-or-death experience. Even so, the wealth of the Zhanzhu Mountains has attracted countless warriors to take risks.
Every year, there are hundreds of millions of warriors who go deep into the Zhanzhu Mountains to hunt for treasures, but two of them die at the mouths of various powerful monsters bred in the Zhanzhu Mountains, and three others die at the hands of their own kind.
Therefore, humans here are more terrifying than monsters. But anyone who returns safely from the Zhanzhu Mountains will bring back huge wealth that will keep them in need of food and clothing for decades or even centuries.
Surrounding the Zhanzhu Mountains, there are thousands of entrances to the Zhanzhu Mountains. At each entrance, a city will be built to provide warriors with rest and exchange of goods. Thanks to the huge wealth of the Zhanzhu Mountains, these cities are not only prosperous.
Extremely, the amount of wealth flowing out of these cities every year is a dizzying astronomical figure.
The fact is that almost all of the ten thousand main cities in the Zhanzhu Mountains are occupied by a powerful sect and family in the state, but there are many exceptions, such as Suyang City.
Zhenyang City is a main city located at the entrance of Zhanzhu Mountain Range. It is located on the top of a huge mountain with a height of 10,000 meters. It is said that a master of the peak martial arts realm came here 100,000 years ago and struck with a sword.
The tens of thousands of meters high Zenyang Mountain was cut in half, and then such a huge city with a radius of hundreds of miles was built on the top of the mountain.
Every year, tens of millions of warriors enter the Zhanzhu Mountains through Suyang City, whether they are demon hunting groups sent by various sects and families, or adventure groups composed of some casual warriors, or some powerful
Strong Lone Ranger, they will all be prepared in Zhenyang City
At that moment, they entered the Zhanzhu Mountains. At the same time, countless business groups, large and small, gathered here. They competed to purchase the treasures brought back by the warriors from the Zhanzhu Mountains, and then transported them to other cities in the state.
Once sold, the profit can be several times or even dozens of times as soon as it is resold.
Such huge wealth is gathered in Suyang City. The annual tax alone is enough to make the lord of Suyang City make a lot of money. In fact, Suyang City is among the thousands of entrance cities in the entire Zhanzhu Mountains, with its wealth, strength and prosperity.
The level can be ranked among the top 100, but no one dares to covet the position of the city lord of Zhenyang City.
Since the establishment of Suyang City, the city lords have changed almost every hundred years. The origins of these successive city lords are very mysterious, and their strength has at least reached the realm of low-level martial saints. No one had heard of them before they appeared.
Who they are and where they come from is never known, it is as if they appear out of thin air. But after the new city lord appears, the old city lord will automatically disappear and no trace of them can be found again.
At first, people thought that the new city lord killed the old city lord and took away the city lord's position. However, later, a high-level Martial Saint Realm or even a peak Martial Saint Realm master became the city lord and also disappeared after a hundred years. This
Only then did people realize that there seemed to be even more shocking secrets hidden behind Zhenyang City.
Human nature is greedy. Of course, the wealth of Zhenyang City has also attracted the prying eyes of many powerful sects. Some heaven-level sects once came out to seize control of Zhenyang City, but before they could secure control of Zhenyang City,
The position of city lord was immediately uprooted by a mysterious and powerful force. All the masters of the sect disappeared overnight, and then the original order of Zhenyang City was restored.
When one after another heaven-level sects were wiped out overnight, people finally became afraid of the forces behind Zhenyang City. At this time, people remembered a rumor that had been circulating for a long time but had not been taken seriously: This prospect
The mountains are actually the forbidden areas of the Mohist family, the water gods of the seven ancient clans, and the disciples of the Mohist family live in the deepest part of the Zhanzhu Mountains. The successive lords of Zhenyang City are actually disciples of the Mohist family.
"Is this rumor true?"
Just at the exit of the Zhenyang City teleportation array, a young man turned to the old man next to him and asked doubtfully.
The old man chuckled and said softly: "Yes, the lord of Zhenyang City is from our Mohist family. In fact, among the ten thousand cities around the Zhanzhu Mountains, one hundred and thirty-six of them have always been under the direct control of our Mohist family.
Under our control, there are still about one tenth of the main city under the control of our Mohist sect!"
The two people, old and young, were Xie Yan and Mo Xiulin.
The competition between Mo Xiulin and Yan Weiyuan a month ago was extremely dangerous. Although Xie Yan used his own cleverness to kill Yan Weiyuan in the end, Mo Xiulin also suffered a huge energy backlash and had to take a good rest.
It took him a month to fully recover, thanks to Xie Yan getting a large amount of king-grade elixirs from Wang Quan, otherwise Mo Xiulin would have to lie in bed for at least half a year before he could get up.
After the news that the Xie family had been retaliated by the Yinhun Sect came back to the Mo family, the head of the Mo family immediately sent a peak martial arts master to personally guard the Xie family. After all, the Xie family had a rare disciple like Xie Yan who naturally awakened the blood of the water god.
, the chances of new disciples born in the Xie family within the next hundred years to complete their bloodline awakening will be greatly increased, so the Mo family is even more concerned about the safety of the Xie family's disciples.
After Mo Xiulin's body fully recovered, Xie Yan immediately took more than 500 children of the Xie family between the ages of sixteen and eighteen and Mo Xiulin took the teleportation array to Zhenyang City.
Among the first batch of disciples of the Xie family to return to the Water God Mo family, the more disciples among them have bloodline awakenings, the higher the status of the Xie family's Water God branch will be in the Mo family in the future.
Xie Yan looked back at the hundreds of curious young disciples of the Xie family behind him, and couldn't help but frown slightly: "Why don't we just take the teleportation array back to the Mo family? Do we have to walk step by step into the Zhanzhu Mountains?
?”
The Zhanzhu Mountains are extremely dangerous, and even tenth-level holy beasts are not uncommon. If it were just Xie Yan and Mo Xiulin, they might be able to come and go freely in the Zhanzhu Mountains. But now they have hundreds of people with the most strength.
However, if you, a prodigy in the realm of innate martial arts, rushes into the Zhanzhu Mountains in such a mighty manner, you will definitely become the most delicious snack for monsters.
"Do you know why the depths of the Zhanzhu Mountains are called a forbidden area?"
Mo Xiulin did not answer Xie Yan's question immediately. Instead, he showed a mysterious smile and asked Xie Yan again.
"Isn't it because our Moh family is deep in the Zhanzhu Mountains, so that place becomes a forbidden area?" Xie Yan asked without knowing why.
He didn't know much about the Water God Mohist family. In fact, among the classics collected by the Xie family, all materials related to the Mohist family had been deliberately destroyed. Xie Yan's understanding of the Mohist family was limited to some rumors passed down by the Xie family's elders.
"Of course not!"
Mo Xiulin explained with a smile: "We, the Mo family, are not bandits who occupy the mountains as kings, so naturally we will not list the Zhanzhu Mountains as a forbidden area. In fact, the Zhanzhu Mountains were the territory of the mythical beast Phoenix clan in ancient times hundreds of thousands of years ago.
Our Mo family, the water god, has been living in the depths of the Zhanzhu Mountains in order to suppress the monsters of the Phoenix clan. In ancient times, the ancestors of our Mo clan, the water god Mo Zhai, and the ancestors of the Phoenix clan, Qise
A great battle broke out between Caifeng in the depths of the Zhanzhu Mountains. The battle was earth-shattering. The energy aftermath of the battle completely shattered the space within a radius of 100,000 miles deep in the Zhanzhu Mountains. It has not been able to dissipate until now. So.
Even masters in the realm of martial saints, if they don’t know the exact route to avoid those spatial turbulences, they will never be able to enter the core area of the Zhanzhu Mountains, let alone find the location of the Water God Mo Family!"
"I see. No wonder everyone guesses that the Water God Mo Family is deep in the Zhanzhu Mountains, but no one has been able to find the Mo Family!"
Xie Yan suddenly realized, and then he understood why Mo Xiulin didn't take him directly into the Mo family by teleportation array. The chaotic space deep in the Zhanzhu Mountains could not even be broken into by masters of the Martial Saint Realm, and it was impossible to set up a large teleportation array.
Otherwise, the violent energy of the space turbulence will completely destroy the space channel formed by the teleportation array in an instant.
Xie Yan nodded, and then immediately asked: "Then how can we return to the Mo family safely?"
"You don't have to worry about this!"
Mo Xiulin smiled slightly, took out a jade medal that exuded colorful fluorescence from the space bag, and said with a smile: "The monsters in the Zhanzhu Mountains have always been respected by the Phoenix clan. Our Mo family's ancestor god Mo Zhai killed the monster.
After the Seven-Color Phoenix, we used the divine blood and bones of the Seven-Color Phoenix to refine ninety-nine and eighty-one pieces of the Seven-Color Divine Phoenix Token. As long as we enter the Zhanzhu Mountains with the Seven-Color Divine Phoenix Token, all the monsters will not dare to attack us.
.”
Hearing what Mo Xiulin said, Xie Yan felt relaxed immediately, and then he asked curiously: "Does Phoenix still exist in this world?"
It's not that he is too curious, but there are too many legends about dragons and phoenixes in the Nine Provinces. Although these powerful beasts have disappeared from people's sight hundreds of thousands of years ago, they are terrifying and powerful.
, but has been influencing generations of mortal warriors through various classics and legends.
