Chapter 427 Ansha City

The spirit boat sailed, and Wei Zhong and others disembarked in a city, where they took the teleportation array directly to the Shagang Demon Realm.

Sensing the aura of Hedao in the giant city behind him, Wei Zhong was secretly frightened.

‘No wonder it has developed so rapidly, and even the spiritual energy towers at the Hedao level have been developed. ’

'but……'

With surprise and confusion, Wei Zhong felt the pull of the void in the flash of spiritual light, and in an instant he had arrived in a strange area.

This is also a majestic city, but it is obviously less sophisticated and more rough than the cities in Kyushu.

Wei Zhong looked through a corner of the palace, and his spiritual consciousness that spread out had almost captured the appearance of the entire sand city.

"Friend Daoist Jie, long time no see."

Hearing the call, Wei Zhong turned his head to look, and a familiar face appeared in front of him:

"Are you, Fellow Daoist Hu Yingzhong?"

The other party was none other than Tao Yuancheng's Lianxu Hu Yingzhong, whom Wei Zhong had come into contact with, but thousands of years had passed and the other party had already set foot in the realm of Hedao just like Wei Zhong.

Although the aura is slightly empty, it seems that the breakthrough has not been long ago, but it is also a true harmony.

Looking at Wei Zhong attentively, he sighed:

"I didn't expect that after so many years, I would still be able to see fellow Daoist Jie."

Although some unpleasant things happened between the two before, it is obvious that these unpleasant things have dissipated with the passage of time.

Moreover, this fellow Daoist Hu seems to have experienced ups and downs, and his temperament has changed. He is not as bossy as before, and his attitude is much gentler.

Wei Zhong walked out of the teleportation circle, came to his side, followed him out of the teleportation hall, and saw the bustling crowd outside the hall.

“This is Ansha City, one of the most important frontline cities in the Shagang Demon Territory in Kyushu.

"The city's defense force is quite complete. Including Hedao alone, there are three people. After Brother Jie arrived, the number increased to four.

"There are countless levels of refining the void and transforming into gods, some of which come from our Kyushu official, and some of which come from private forces..."

Hu Yingzhong explained, and Wei Zhong also kept asking, and learned that the other two Hedao here were much stronger, and they were both in the middle stage of Hedao.

And they are all promoted to the middle stage of Hedao by themselves, rather than the Hedao created with the help of the spiritual energy tower.

"From what Fellow Daoist Hu said, it seems that he has some resentment towards the enlightened person from the Spiritual Energy Tower?"

The latter snorted:

"More than just resentment, I wish I could tear off those guys' faces to see if their face is as thick as that broken tower..."

Hu Yingzhong's explanation full of resentment made Wei Zhong know that Jiuzhou had now been divided into two factions.

One faction was promoted with the help of the Spiritual Energy Tower and was responsible for guarding the current territory of Kyushu's Internal Affairs Office.

The other faction is promoted independently and is mainly responsible for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' development tasks.

The two parties have different functions and contradictory policies.

"If it weren't for the pressure from the Dao Master above, those guys from the Ministry of Internal Affairs would probably seize all the power, leaving our Nine Provinces isolated.

"I don't even want to think about whether their psychic tower is composed of resources stolen by me and others."

Of course, not everyone in the Ministry of Internal Affairs is a conservative, and there are also many people who support the development of Kyushu.

For example, a large number of spiritual tower monks within the Shagang Demon Realm think so.

The two of them were talking and walking as they walked along the streets of the city and arrived at a high tower.

This is not a psychic tower, but an ordinary high tower. The terrain is high enough to put the entire Ansha City in sight, and you can also see the scenery outside the city in the distance.

At the top of the tower, Wei Zhong saw a young male monk, who unlike Wei Zhong had a beard.

But there is no hair at all on the chin, under the nose, or even on the top of the head.

The light above the head reflects the sunlight outside the tower.

Wei and Zhong stepped forward, and the latter's eyes shifted and fell on them from the outside.

"I guess this is fellow Taoist Jie, right?"

With a kind smile on his face, the other party approached Wei Zhong and slowly stretched out his right hand.

Only then did Wei Zhong realize that the latter was taller than him, and his whole body was also slightly larger.

The physique is quite majestic. When the two shook hands, Wei Zhong's palm was like a chicken's claw in his generous right hand.

Recalling Hu Yingzhong's story just now, Wei Zhong knew that this person's name was Ding Tianyou.

"Is it possible that Fellow Daoist Ding practiced physical training?"

The latter laughed twice:

"Jie Dao has a friendly look. I really practice physical skills, so I have such a body."

The three of them chatted and learned that another fellow Taoist from Hedao had gone out to check the surrounding situation.

This is the daily task of Wei Zhong and others when the war ends.

“Fellow Taoist came at a good time, we have just entered the truce period.

"These monks in the city go out to hunt every day, and we also conduct routine inspections to prevent the seventh-order demon dragon from probing.

"It's a pretty peaceful day in the Shagang Demon Realm."

Hu Yingzhong echoed:

"Yeah, if it's a war, it won't be so easy. It's inevitable to fight to the death with those seventh-level monsters..."

The two talked about their previous experiences, which gave Wei Zhong a little more understanding of the Shagang Demon Realm.

"Didn't these demonic dragon tribes unite? So they were defeated by 'us'?"

"Yes, there are, but too few," Ding Tianyou rubbed his chin without a trace of beard, and added, "The demon dragon is stupid, and there are more disputes between different tribes than unity.

"Even if we unite together, it will only be a local battlefield. The power of the fifth and sixth level demon dragons does not pose much of a threat to our Nine Provinces Immortal Combat Power.

"As long as those seventh-level demon dragons have not united together, they are nothing to be afraid of."

The two explained to Wei Zhong the various methods of Jiuzhou, including the heavy spiritual armor that Wei Zhong had seen.

Such items can at least increase the combat power of the cultivators by a small level, and to a certain extent are equivalent to the art of physical body training, which is enough to temporarily fight against the same level demon dragon.

It is because of the existence of this item that Jiuzhou's mid-level offensive strength has become unprecedentedly strong.

It is strong enough to advance step by step and clear the Shagang demon domain.

"In addition, there are psychic cannons and combat shuttles guarding the front line...

"The psychic tower that is about to be built, and the various protective measures that match it, are enough for us to guard a large amount of territory while continuing to expand."

As the three talked, a stream of light passed through the sky and gradually approached.

It penetrated the defensive light shield of Ansha City and fell into the tower.

Seeing Wei Zhong, a strange cultivator, his expression was slightly different.

The three stood up, and Wei Zhong had already bowed:

"Hello, Fairy An! "

The other person had long flowing hair tied behind her head and hanging down to her waist. She was a female cultivator.

She was born in An Group, a large company in Jiuzhou, with strong economic strength.

She was also one of the core talents cultivated by Jiuzhou.

She practiced all the way, and her cultivation level rose rapidly. She has now reached the middle stage of Hedao.

"Hello, fellow Daoist Jie."

The other person obviously knew the origin of Wei Zhong, a strange cultivator.

After a brief greeting, the few people talked about the inspection.

"...Fellow Daoist Hu is right. There is indeed an underground mine more than 50 miles away from our Ansha City that we have never mined.

"It is suspected that there is a new group of demon dragons in it.

"I wandered around the periphery for a few circles and walked a few miles inside. I encountered demon dragon attacks many times...

"There is also a crisis in the depths that makes me very vigilant."

In the Shagang Demon Domain, there are not only demon dragons entrenched on the ground, but also special beings living in the underground mineral veins.

An Yuxuan encountered this kind of demon dragon tribe.

"Did you bring back the dragon corpse?"

The other party waved his sleeves, and a strange-looking dragon suddenly landed on the scene.

It was not big, about the same size as the adult tiger Wei Zhong had seen in his previous life.

It had black hair on its body, sharp legs, and a structure that was very suitable for digging underground.

Wei Zhong looked around and saw that the dragon had a smooth back and no wings.

On its head, which was larger than a human, was a somewhat wretched rat face.

The eyes were degenerate, the pupils were cloudy, and replaced by wide ears, which was very consistent with the relevant characteristics of underground creatures.

"What a strange creature."

A correct version of the book in 16-9!

A normal person would never associate this thing with a dragon.

However, Wei Zhong did sense a very rich dragon bloodline in its body.

'At the fifth level, the bloodline concentration is higher than that of the same level of the Sky-Splitting Dragon, the Iron-Armored Dragon, and other dragons. ’

Wei Zhong pushed aside its hair and saw a layer of very fine scales underneath.

“This thing is very slippery. It retreats after one attack. If it fails, it retreats immediately.

“The hair is slippery and seems to have the effect of repelling magic. Ordinary low-level spiritual magic will be weakened by at least 50% when it falls on it, and even if it is of the same level, it will be reduced by about 30%.

“Plus, the scales under the hair can greatly reduce the damage of magic.

“It has good defense, and what’s more deadly is that its speed is also quite terrifying…”

An Yuxuan described its characteristics one by one. Ding Tianyou clenched his fist and said hesitantly:

“This thing seems to be more afraid of close-range attacks? "

With a poke of his finger, he easily pierced the monster's hair and even its scales and skin.

Wei Zhong also tried to take out the fifth-level magic sword, slightly activating the spiritual pattern on the sword, and indeed easily cut a hole on its back.

This monster dragon's defense is only against long-range spiritual magic, and its response to magic tools and other objects is quite limited.

The crowd also tried to figure out the weaknesses of its body based on the corpse.

Gradually, it was discovered that except for the slightly hard claws on its four feet, the rest of the body of this thing was quite ordinary.

Even its bones were soft and could be deformed by a random squeeze.

"To deal with this creature, we should mainly attack with physical magic weapons. Spiritual magic can be used, but it can only be used on the forehead with less hair..."

A spiritual light projection fell in front of the four people, and it was the shape of a demon dragon.

The four big characters "Mouse Demon Dragon" were marked on it.

The lower body was divided into blocks, and there were various markings inside.

The four people kept filling in the gaps on it. After a while, the weaknesses and even advantages of a new demon dragon were figured out by several people.

They even speculated some of its habits based on its physical condition.

"Okay, this thing will be handed over to the vanguard team, and they will further explore and supplement it."

Ding Tianyou raised his hand and the projected information was conveyed to other cultivators in Ansha City.

In less than half a minute, Wei Zhong saw a team of flying shuttles rising in the city and heading to the direction marked by the intelligence agency.

Wei Zhong looked puzzled:

"Seventh-level tribe, why don't we follow to explore? "

Several people shook their heads slightly, and Hu Yingzhong patted Wei Zhong on the shoulder:

"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Jie, these people are all veterans in exploring the Shagang Demon Territory.

"This action is not for anything else, but for money.

"They who get first-hand intelligence will have an intelligence advantage in the next expedition process, enough to get more advanced resources..."

After some explanation, Wei Zhong learned that most of these people were from the professional team of the An Group, and only three or two were officials from Jiuzhou, supervising a few people not to falsify intelligence.

‘This is different from the sect monks I have experienced who unified the overall situation. ’

Wei Zhong looked like he didn't expect that Jiuzhou would carry forward the "outsourcing" situation.

“As for us, we will only take action when the main force is attacking or even when we are dealing with incoming enemies.

"Besides, we can practice cultivation or go to the city below to relieve our boredom. Although An Shachen is newly built, various entertainment facilities are indispensable..."

As the words faded away, Wei Zhong declined their invitation, found a place to live, and began to practice on his own.

Three days passed like this, and the vanguard returned and brought back various information.

The general distribution of the Gopher Demon Dragon, the strength of the group, and even the various minerals inside the mine...

All the information fell into the hands of a few people.

"Xu Gangyan, there is something like this in this cave?"

Wei Zhong didn't know much about it, but after asking, he found out that the purified Xie Gang Dijin was one of the raw materials for refining Kyushu heavy armor.

If the share is sufficient, the number of heavily armored troops in Kyushu can be increased even further.

"With Xun Gang Rock, there might be red gold sand inside..."

The words spoken by several people made Wei Zhong stunned;

‘Isn’t this the main material for refining the Wind Bead? ’

I heard from several people that the red golden sand inside might still be at the eighth level.

Wei Zhong's mood also fluctuated a bit.

After understanding all the information in it, several people looked at each other and nodded, all understanding that the mineral vein here must be captured.

Orders were issued one after another, and the martial arts teams in the city quickly gathered.

An Yuxuan waved her sleeves and threw out a large spiritual boat, the barrel of which stretched out, and the light flashed away.

'Seventh level Dharma boat...'

A large number of monks landed on it simultaneously, and many flying shuttles followed on both sides, like a canoe guarding.

"I'll wait for this operation..."

An Yuxuan looked around Wei Zhong and the others, and this was exactly what they were looking for.

Ding Tianyou rubbed his palms:

"The lower body method has the upper hand over these beasts and cannot be left out."

Wei Zhong saw that Hu Yingzhong seemed to be hesitant, so he also raised his right hand, a ball of lightning appeared in the palm of his hand, and said:

"It just so happens that I have also made great achievements in physical techniques, and the poor Taoist here also follows you."

Seeing the thunder light dancing in Wei Zhong's hand, he looked a little surprised, and Ding Tianyou was even more joyful:

"Okay, okay, it seems that the physical skills of fellow Taoist Jie are no less powerful than Pindao.

"After this mission is completed, you and I must learn from each other."

Seventh-level body refining is a rare commodity in Kyushu. On weekdays, in order to test what he has learned, Ding Tianyou can only look for those demonic dragons.

This is the first time that a monk who is physically comparable to him has been found among the human race.

Wei Zhong smiled awkwardly:

"That's natural!"

After a few exchanges, Hu Yingzhong was left to defend the city, and the other two, together with Wei Zhong, participated in the attack on the mine.
