Chapter 291 Hearing from the Upper Realm
Zhou Yang first flew hundreds of miles in the opposite direction of Qiying, until he encountered a vast river that was thousands of meters wide, and then he dived directly into the rushing river.
Not long after, he found a huge fish that was at least twenty or thirty meters long and looked somewhat like a golden carp. It was a powerful fish monster whose strength had reached the innate realm.
However, in front of Zhou Yang, this monster in the innate realm had no power to resist at all. He first used his powerful soul power to intimidate the giant fish monster, and then he shrank his body and drilled directly into the belly of the golden fish monster through the ferocious mouth of the fish.
At the same time, he made several mysterious hand gestures, and his aura continued to decrease, soon reaching an undetectable level.
Only after he had done all this did he take a breath and use his soul to control the golden fish monster to quickly escape downstream along the rushing river.
More than a month later, the lower reaches of the Qianwu River were close to the Jinping Mountain basin.
Jinyang Mountain is an ordinary fairy mountain in Qianyuan Continent. This mountain range is not too large. Including other continuous mountains around it, it only covers an area of several thousand miles.
However, there is a very powerful sect of immortal cultivators called the 'Jinyang Sect' stationed on Jinyang Mountain, so it is quite famous among the surrounding mortal kingdoms.
At this moment, on the vast surging river at the foot of Jinyang Mountain, two young disciples who had just joined the Jinyang Sect and were gifted with flying swords were carefully practicing the feeling of flying with swords.
However, the progress of the two people was obviously different. One of them, a young man with delicate features and a jade pendant hanging around his waist, had already mastered the technique very skillfully, sometimes rushing up to the sky, sometimes staying close to the river surface, constantly performing various difficult moves.
The other young man, who looked a little more honest, was also flying on a flying sword, but his speed was much slower, and he did not dare to fly too high, and looked a little clumsy.
"Hahaha, Jiang Fan, you have to be fast when flying with a sword. It's fun to fly a thousand miles in an instant. You're so slow, like an old lady taking a stroll. You really don't deserve the status of an immortal cultivator!"
The handsome young man laughed out loud while steer the flying sword past the honest young man at a rapid speed. The strong wind caused by the high-speed flight made the honest young man's body shake slightly, and he almost fell off the flying sword.
The honest young man tried his best to control the flying sword and finally stood firm again.
He looked at his companions who were running away, and couldn't help but say, "Junior Brother Wang, since you have practiced well, you can leave first. You don't have to accompany me."
"Accompany you?"
The handsome young man, Junior Brother Wang, laughed in his heart, "Who wants to stay here with you? I just want to tease you because you look so stupid!"
Although he thought so, he said: "It's okay for me to go back anyway. It's fate that we both entered the mountain gate on the same day. I will practice with you for a while."
As he said this, he controlled the flying sword to come back again, but this time he was very close to the river surface. The fierce wind even brought a long gully on the river surface. He wanted to repeat the same trick and tease the stupid Jiang Fan again.
However, at this moment, a huge black shadow quickly emerged from under the river surface between the two people, and the large shadow soon approached the river surface.
"Ok?"
The sudden appearance of the black shadow immediately alerted the two Jinyang Sect disciples.
"Brother Wang, be careful!"
The honest young man couldn't help but remind loudly when he saw this, but before he opened his mouth, the handsome boy had already retreated quickly, and in the blink of an eye he had retreated more than a thousand meters away.
"Huahua~~~" With the sound of huge water splashes, a huge figure broke through the water surface and appeared on the surface of Qianwu River.
It was a huge fish monster that was more than 20 meters long and looked somewhat like a golden carp. Its golden scales reflected dazzling golden light under the sunlight.
Then the fish monster opened its mouth, and a young man in black suddenly jumped out of it.
Not long after, Zhou Yang, under the alias Luo Feng, joined the Jinyang Sect as a casual cultivator and became an outer disciple of the Jinyang Sect at the Jindan level.
The Jinyang Sect can only be regarded as an ordinary sect that is barely in the mainstream in the Qianyuan Continent where many cultivators gather. Except for the sect master and the great elder who have reached the Kongming period, the strongest of the others have only reached the late Dongxu period.
However, the fewer the number of masters, the lower the possibility of Zhou Yang's identity being exposed, which is exactly what Zhou Yang wants.
The Jinyang Sect treated its disciples quite well. Even Zhou Yang, a casual cultivator who "joined a master with his skills", was given a low-grade spiritual flying sword and a storage bracelet of the lowest level. He was even given a fixed amount of elixirs and other spiritual items to assist in cultivation every month.
In addition, the Jinyang Sect's management of its disciples was quite lax. Apart from the occasional need to go out and help the surrounding mortal kingdoms to "slay demons and eliminate evil", there were rarely other tasks assigned.
In this way, Zhou Yang was quite happy to settle down temporarily in Jinyang Sect.
In addition to absorbing spiritual energy and practicing qigong every day, he spent the rest of his time in the Jinyang Sect's library, reading the large number of books that had been accumulated by the Jinyang Sect over countless years.
Of course, the books on cultivation techniques require a large number of contribution points to exchange for, so Zhou Yang cannot read them for the time being. His target is those "miscellaneous books" that are available for sect disciples to read for free.
After all, the Jinyang Sect is a sect that has been passed down for tens of thousands of years. Even some of the "miscellaneous books" contain much more information than the books that Qiying collected casually in Junyang City.
By reading these books, Zhou Yang gained a real understanding of the world's structure.
This world is almost vast and endless. At least even Jinyang Sect's founder, Zhenren Jinyang, who has reached the Tribulation Crossing Stage, does not know how big this world is.
But in this vast world, there are two extremely special places.
One is the Qianyuan Continent, known as the holy land of cultivators, and the other is a vast sea area in the Endless Sea known as the Three Mountains and Seas.
Qianyuan Continent and the Three Mountains and Seas. Not only are the spiritual energies of heaven and earth in these two areas much richer than in other areas of this world, but the rules of heaven are also more obvious, making it easier to comprehend and practice.
Therefore, at least 90% of the cultivators in this world gathered in these two areas.
Among them, Qianyuan Continent is mainly occupied by human, immortal and demon cultivators, while the vast sea area where the Three Mountains and Seas are located is controlled by powerful demon cultivators.
There are many sects of cultivators and demon cultivators in these two areas. The most powerful ones are the three sects and six schools of the immortals and demons in Qianyuan Continent, as well as the scales, feathers, and beasts of the three mountains and seas!
Each of these forces has been passed down for more than a million years and has countless immortal masters within it.
And most importantly, each of these thirteen forces controls the channels of communication with the upper realm!
