Netherworld Immortal

When the old man said this, his words stopped abruptly, and his dry and lifeless eyes showed a little panic and vigilance.He looked around, as if worried about who would hear what he was going to say next.

Seeing this, Xu Yang knew the complexity of the matter, and said in a low voice: "Old man, please take a step to speak."

The three of them retreated to a secluded place on the corner of the street.

Xu Yang secretly activated Fa Jue, and his spiritual consciousness turned into an invisible force and spread out like a big net. Within a radius of a hundred feet, everything was covered by his spiritual consciousness.

After spiritual investigation, no trace of other cultivators was found.But I found that people in the small town didn't talk to each other very much, as if they were wary of each other.Moreover, the aura emanating from some of them seemed a little manic, and their bodies were much stronger than others.

There's something weird about this town.

After doing this, Xu Yang turned his right hand behind his back, and a red spiritual flame the size of a candle flame emerged from the tip of his little finger, which was transformed by Azhu's Nirvana Flame Spirit.

Then, under the urging of Xu Yang, the Nirvana Spiritual Flame turned into countless small flames that were invisible to the naked eye and scattered into the surrounding void, quickly spreading a transparent layer around the three of them, isolating the spiritual consciousness of others and ear shields.

If an outsider looks at it, there is nothing here, even Xu Yang, the old man and the little boy can't be seen.

All this, the old man is completely unaware.

"Old man, now you can continue talking with confidence."

The old man looked around and saw that there was no one around, and the panic in his eyes dissipated, and then he turned his body sideways and leaned against Xu Yang's ear.

He whispered: "Starting from this "Yuanbei Town", a hundred miles to the east, there is a legendary God Island. The sea area near the God Island is not only rich in fish resources, but also produces East Pearls the size of a child's fist. But the ancestors warned that there lived a group of Wu people called the ancient Wu people on that small island, and they must not be provoked. However, due to the need to make a living, three months ago, under the discussion of many young and strong fishermen in the town, they formed A fishing fleet of more than [-] people went to the waters of Nashen Island to fish. Unexpectedly, they were discovered by the Wu people on Nashen Island, and more than [-] people were detained. Only one person escaped by chance and floated with a piece of wood came back. But three days after returning to town, he died of his wounds."

"Hey--"

Having said that, the old man sighed softly, tears flickering in his dry eyes.

"My son, that is, the father of this child, is among those more than [-] people, and his life and death are still unknown." The trembling voice of the old man made those who heard it sigh.

After speaking, the old man wiped away his tears with his old and torn cuffs.

Seeing his grandpa crying, the boy's eyes turned red, and he tugged at the corner of the old man's clothes with his little hands, and murmured, "Grandpa isn't crying, where is the little stool?"

The old man stroked the little boy's head with his hands, with a hint of relief on his face.

Taking a deep breath and calming down, the old man continued: "What's even more frightening is that not long after, the Wu people from the island of the gods came to this town. It is said that the fishermen sent by the town disturbed their gods. The gods on the island, more than [-] people before, will be killed every ten days and three people will be used to sacrifice the gods to comfort the gods. I don't know what method was used to make some people in this town loyal to them wholeheartedly, and let these people gain the brute force of the Wu tribe. Anyone who speaks ill of the Wu tribe behind their backs will be arrested by those who are loyal to the Wu tribe. tied up and thrown into the sea."

"So that's the case, but as far as I know, although this place is remote, it is the boundary of the Heavenly Ghost Sect, the largest ghost sect in the Zhongyuan Continent. Didn't the people from the Heavenly Ghost Sect intervene in this matter?" Xu Yang asked.

"It is precisely because this is the territory of the Heavenly Ghost Sect. For many years, the people of the witch tribe on the island of the gods and the residents of the small town have not interacted with each other and lived in peace. In fact, there is only one of the Heavenly Ghost Sect in this town. A deacon disciple named "Li Zhi". When those Wu people came to the town, Li Zhi came forward to mediate. There was a disagreement, and those Wu people beat Li Zhi seriously and tied him back to Shendao. Moreover, let out the words , whoever spreads the news will kill the whole town."

"There is still such a thing?" Xu Yang frowned.

"Old man, I have something here, my son can deny it."

As the old man said, he took out a small object wrapped in a piece of black cloth from his arms.Then, he unfolded the black cloth carefully, revealing a pitch-black wooden sign about an inch in size, engraved on the wooden sign was a big sky ghost with two wings on its back.

Xu Yang took the wooden sign and looked at it in his hand. Several complicated runes were engraved on the back of the wooden sign.With just a glance, he recognized the hidden message on the rune as "Li Zhi, a disciple of the Heavenly Ghost Sect".

"This is an exclusive identity token for the disciples of the Heavenly Ghost Sect. Why do you have this, old man?"

"To be honest, the ghost sect disciple "Li Zhi" and the old man were neighbors for many years. Before the accident, he gave this thing to me. Tell me, if something happens to him, the ghost sect will definitely send someone here to check. Three Within ten feet, as long as there is a disciple of the Heavenly Ghost Sect approaching, the token will automatically sense it and emit a certain amount of heat. As long as you find the person who came from the Heavenly Ghost Sect and tell the truth, you will have a chance to rescue the person who was captured by the God Island Witch Clan. The person who left. I have been sticking this thing to my heart, and in the name of begging, wandering around this town, just to wait for the arrival of the Heavenly Ghost Sect. Coincidentally, I met the young master on the street, and this token began to appear on the street. My heart was hot. That's why, old man, I took the liberty to stop the young master from begging. I guess the young master must be a disciple sent by the Heavenly Ghost Sect."

"To be honest, I am the person who was sent by the Heavenly Ghost Sect to investigate this matter."

"It's finally time for the young master." The old man's tone trembled.

The old man looked around behind Xu Yang, and asked with some disappointment, "Is the young master alone?"

"How could it be a person, my old man is still here." Guigu Yeyan's voice came from the ghost wooden waistband that Xu Yang hung around his waist, the voice was not loud.

"Who is it? Someone seems to be talking?" The old man was surprised.

"It's nothing, the old man thinks that I'm only one person, and I can't do anything with those Wu people. Please rest assured, I will first find a way to rescue the fishermen who were taken away by those Wu people."

The old man smiled shyly, and said: "I believe in you, but you are weak alone. There are many witches on Shendao Island, so it's better to be careful."

"Thank you for reminding me, old man."

After finishing speaking, Xu Yang stretched out his right hand to move across the air, and a fist-sized bluestone on the side of the road flew into his palm.

As a red spiritual flame ignited, the stone turned into fly ash with a crackling sound.

This scene immediately made the old man and the child beside him dumbfounded in surprise.

"Thank you for taking the risk to tell the truth. I will temporarily accept this token and leave."

After finishing speaking, Xu Yang put away the identity token, cupped his fists slightly, then turned and left.

The old man looked at Xu Yang's leaving back, and said to the little boy next to him: "Little stool, if your father is still alive, maybe you really can be saved."

"It's fairy art, I want to learn it too, so we can go save daddy together." The little boy said excitedly.

"Hush—" The old man stretched out his hand to lightly cover the child's mouth, making a silent movement.

The little boy stared at a pair of big innocent eyes, watching Xu Yang's back disappear into the street.

......

After separating from the old man, Xu Yang took the identity plate left by "Li Zhi" and found "Li Zhi"'s residence.The door of the room was smashed, and the house was in a mess, with no one in sight.

He also secretly inspected several residents of this town, and found that special spells were placed in the bodies of these people, making their bodies violent and powerful.But to Xu Yang, these are just very low-level means.In order not to startle the snake, he did not remove the spells from these people.

"It seems that what the old man said is true, Master, do you know the situation on that island of God." Xu Yang said via voice transmission.

"Of course I know that the island of gods a hundred miles east of this place is the "Pinling Island", where a group of Wu tribe people who worship sea spirits live. That's where I met "Hai Yueer", and Hai Yueer was also one of those witches. A member of the tribe. But, I don’t know what the "Porpoise Island" has become after so many years." The sound transmission of Guigu Yeyan came from the waistband.

......

ten days ago.

A young talent came from Yuanbei Town.

This person has a handsome appearance, tall stature, star-like eyes, and looks like he is in his early 20s.Her short hair was simply tied behind her head, and she was wearing a water-blue long gown with large sleeves and a toga with fluttering sleeves as she walked, giving her a somewhat dainty look.

The blue-shirted youth passed by the gate of "Yuanbei Town" and stopped.

"It's a small town for mortals, so let's go around it. It's better to stay away from the mortal world." He said to himself.

Bypassing the small town, the blue-shirted youth could see the endless sea from a distance, and then walked straight towards the sea.

Strangely, his floating figure walked on the beach without leaving a footprint, nor did he stick a single gravel on his shoes.

When he came to the beach, he stepped out with one step, his figure floated like a leaping fish, and he stopped his figure when he stepped on the water, the waves pushed up naturally bypassed his feet, but they didn't get wet at all.

The sea breeze blew his blue gown.The undulating rhythm of the gown was surprisingly consistent with the turbulent waves in front of him, as if at this moment he was already a wave, and had already merged with the sea.

He raised his hands and formed the seal of Taoism in front of him.

I saw a flash of blue light in the dharma seal, showing a group of aqua blue aura.He raised his hand, and the aura twisted and turned into a small blue fish about a foot long and leaped into the water.

There was a "poof".

Under the surface of the sea, a straight blue line quickly swam towards the depths of the sea until it disappeared into the sea-sky line.

After finishing all this, the young man in blue shirt stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes closed, and he remained motionless, as if he was waiting for something.

An incense stick of time.

The closed eyes of the blue-shirted youth suddenly opened, and there was a blue aura flickering in the eyes.In just an instant, the blue color disappeared without a trace, and his original black pupils were restored.

"Sure enough, the place where the water energy is abundant is on an island deep in the sea." The blue-shirted youth whispered.

Immediately, a smile appeared on his face.That smile was not frivolous at all, it was as indifferent as water and as silent as a cloud, but it was impressive.

"Donghai, I, Liu Haiyu, are here." The blue-shirted youth said loudly.

The sound echoed on the surface of the sea, and finally disappeared in the endless sound of waves.
