I Hang Up In the Fantasy World

In the side hall, Zhang Yi and Zhou Chi sat on the crimson seats on both sides. The latter slowly explained the reason, his face full of melancholy.

The discovery of the spiritual vein was supposed to be an opportunity for the rise of Anhai City, but it caused trouble in the end and turned into what it is now.

All this caught Zhou Chi by surprise.

On the opposite side of him, Zhang Yi nodded calmly. At this moment, he finally understood why there were dark clouds gathering over the Zhou Mansion, and it turned out to be related to Yanyue Sect.

However, Zhang Yi was still a little puzzled, he asked.

"Whether it is Yanyue Sect or Anhai City, they are both one of the lower-level forces of Tianyun Palace. Their masters are unknown, and Yanyue Sect is so confident. If they want to snatch Anhai City's spiritual veins, aren't they afraid of reprimands from above?"

"That's the problem."

That Zhou Chi sighed and said bitterly.

"If this spiritual vein is completely within the territory of Anhai City, then even if Yanyue Sect is jealous, they will not dare to go too far."

"However, the Five Sacred Mountains Valley, where the spirit vein was discovered, is located in a special place. Although it is on the border of Anhai City, there is also a section bordering Yanyue Sect."

"And this gave them a reason to snatch the spirit veins."

"And because of my failure to break through to the Saints of the third level, they have become more and more confident. Not long ago, they even issued an ultimatum."

"If I'm still unwilling to give up that spiritual vein, the Supreme Elder of his sect will even visit my Zhou family mansion in person in the near future."

Zhang Yi nodded, and commented indifferently, "It seems that the other party is not kind."

"This is also the reason why I am troubled by it. The Yanyue Sect, which is under the command of the Saint of the Three Heavens, is still too difficult for Anhai City to fight against."

On the side, Zhou Chi said helplessly.

"Then if the saint from the Yanyue Sect comes in person, how will the Zhou family plan to deal with it?"

Zhang Yi asked again.

"If the other party really overwhelms people with power and doesn't show affection, then my Zhou family may have to accept it and divide the spiritual veins at a ratio of eight to two."

Zhou Chi responded with a downcast expression, and his complexion was faintly older.

It is unwise and not worthwhile to drag the Zhou family into a dangerous situation and confront the threat of the third heavenly saint head-on for the sake of the Lingmai and the Yanyue Sect.

Stepping back is the wisest choice.

Zhang Yi nodded, then lowered his head in thought, and stopped asking questions. On the other side, Zhou Chi also looked downcast and stopped talking.

Immediately, the side hall fell silent, and the atmosphere was a little gloomy until Zhang Yi spoke again.

he said with a smile.

"It's just a Yanyue sect. I happened to pass by this time, so I solved it smoothly. It can be regarded as a repayment for the kindness of the fellow daoist when we first met."

Hearing this, Zhou Chi's heart was shocked, his eyes showed surprise, he even wondered if he was hallucinating, so he said hastily.

"Fellow Daoist Zhang Yi, this matter is naturally a piece of cake for you, but after all you are the Saint of Sword Asking Mountain, and this place is the territory of Tianyun Palace, if you intervene in it, I'm afraid there will be a lot of inconvenience."

Zhang Yi said casually, "That's why I came here with a different look."

"Although there were some twists and turns in leaving Wenjian Mountain on this trip, there was no danger. No one noticed my tracks. At this time, outsiders will not know that I have come to the territory of Tianyun Palace, the top power of the other side."

"Now, I am not Zhang Yi, but Yi Xuanzi, a friend you met by chance when you were wandering in the violent sea countless years ago."

"At this time, this friend happened to come to visit to reminisce about the old days, but just happened to see his friend's current predicament, and couldn't help feeling angry and intervening in it."

Speaking slowly, Zhang Yi looked at Zhou Chi and asked with a smile.

"What is the reason?"

"It's just a third-level heavenly saint. I can break it with a wave of my hand. I don't even need to fight. I can make Yanyuezong retreat."

And listening to Zhang Yi's eloquent talk, Zhou Chi remembered that when the other party came to visit, his face changed, and even his whole body was completely different, so he didn't notice it.

With this in mind, Zhou Chi thought about Zhang Yi's plan seriously, and felt that there was a lot to be done.

After all, there are too many methods available for an elite saint of the fourth heaven to deal with a sect elder who is no more than the third heaven.

As for a fellow Taoist who met in the violent sea hundreds of years ago, outsiders naturally have no way of verifying the authenticity.

Thinking of this, Zhou Chi couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.

"Back then, I was only a second-level cultivation base, and I lived in Anhai City. Many of the situations I described were nothing more than ordinary opinions."

"It's hard for Zhou Chi to let go of fellow Taoist's help at this time."

"If it weren't for the fact that this matter was about Anhai City and the safety of the Zhou family, I would have refused anyway."

Zhang Yi smiled and said calmly.

"At that time, I initially ascended to the main world, and I didn't know much about the entire violent sea."

"Fellow Daoist's words opened my eyes, and I had a specific goal, which was a great help to me at that time."

"In comparison, the effort I need to exert at this time is nothing more than a little effort, not worth mentioning."

"If Fellow Daoist still feels uneasy, then help me collect some refining materials during my stay here."

"Of course there is no problem. However, with the current state of Daoist friends, the vision must be extremely high. Can the Zhou family help with the refining materials that Daoist friends need?"

Zhou Chi immediately responded to Zhang Yi's words, but then he hesitated again.

After all, how could a small second-level saint be able to raise the refining materials that a fourth-level heavenly saint needed?

Thinking of this, Zhou Chi couldn't help but said.

"Fellow Daoist Zhang Yi, if you deliberately collected some refining materials that you don't need in order to make me feel at ease, then there is no need to do so. Zhou's Dao Heart is not that fragile."

Zhang Yi shook his head and smiled calmly.

"Of course not."

"I currently need to refine a treasure. The main materials have been raised, but some auxiliary materials are still a lot short."

"These supplementary materials are not precious. I originally planned to collect them after returning to Sword-Worshiping Mountain, but since Fellow Daoist Zhou Chi has the heart, I'll have to help."

As he said that, Zhang Yi held his right hand in the air, and handed over a piece of white paper, on which a lot of refining materials were densely written.

The treasure he said needs to be refined is naturally an ice-type consumable treasure that can be used to survive the catastrophe of fire.

As for the main refining material, Bingyifeng's natal feather, he had already obtained it, leaving only some less precious auxiliary materials, which could be collected at any time.

At this time Zhang Yi met Zhou Chi, and the other party felt uneasy, so he was not polite, and directly handed over the matter to the other party.

After all, although the auxiliary materials are common, he still needs to spend some energy to collect them all. It would be better if outsiders do it for him.

...

At this time, in the side hall, after listening to Zhang Yi's explanation, Zhou Chi did not hesitate any longer.

He took the list of materials, looked at it at a glance, and then he was relieved.

Because the refining material required on it is not rare, it can be obtained with a little effort.

So Zhou Chi affirmed, "Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Zhang Yi, I will leave this matter to Zhou. Within a month, Zhou will definitely collect everything."

"So good."

Zhang Yi smiled and nodded.

Immediately, Zhou Chi left and gave orders, and the entire Zhou family immediately took action.

On the other hand, Zhang Yi temporarily stayed in Zhou Mansion, waiting for the Supreme Elder of Yanyue Sect to come to his door.

Yan Yuezong.

This is a sect force next to Anhai City.

It is located among the mountains, with aura pervading all the year round, forming a light white mist, which is a rare geomantic treasure.

At this time, at the highest point among the mountains of the Yanyue Sect, in the Yanyue Hall, there are several people. They are the elders of the Yanyue Sect, and they all have cultivation levels of the first and second heavenly holy realms.

"You two, what do you think of this matter?"

"A few days ago, a sage visited Zhou's mansion and said that he was his friend. He was welcomed by Zhou Chi."

Suddenly, a sage in the center opened his mouth and said, he was the Great Elder of Yanyue Sect.

"hehe."

"This is really a coincidence. If you don't come sooner or later, it's obviously malicious to visit us when we have a conflict with the Zhou family because of the spiritual vein."

"According to news from some dark sources, the saint calls himself Yi Xuanzi, and he is not a local saint, but from the violent sea area, but we don't know whether his origin is true or not."

"At least, what is certain is that the opponent should be Zhou Chi's old acquaintance, otherwise he wouldn't make a move at this time."

Beside him, another person said gloomyly, with a sneer on his face.

"Hmph, seeking help from outsiders at this juncture, it seems that Zhou Chi is going to fight to the end, and he really doesn't take me seriously, Elder Yanyue Sect Taishang."

"Yi Xuanzi? I have been rampant for thousands of years, and I have never heard of this name. I think it is just an unknown person."

"Otherwise, I'll visit Yi Er right now, to dampen the spirit of the other party!"

In the hall, the third person also continued to speak. He had fierce eyes, bare arms, and a big ax on his back. He was obviously a rough and warlike person.

After finishing speaking, he started to walk towards the outside of the hall, as if planning to visit the Zhou family immediately.

"Fellow Daoist Qing, don't be reckless."

Seeing the gesture of the man saying he was right and about to rush out of the hall, the Great Elder felt a little headache and immediately stopped him.

"Friend Daoist Qing's strength has always been good, and the Zhou family is definitely no match for him."

"But although Yi Xuanzi's reputation is not obvious, he was able to be invited by Zhou Chi, and he thought he had some tricks."

"If the two of them attack together, and they are in the territory of the Zhou Mansion, Fellow Daoist Qing may be in danger."

"At this time, the Supreme Elder has not left the customs, we must not act recklessly, and ruin the plan of the Supreme Elder."

"All arrangements should be made by the old man after he leaves customs."

The Great Elder said solemnly, and finally even pulled out the Supreme Elder, only then did Elder Qing stop thinking about it.

Seeing that Elder Qing returned to the palace, both of them breathed a sigh of relief, and then went on to discuss the matter of Wuyue Valley.

...

For the next half month, whether it was Yan Yuezong or An Haicheng, they were quite restrained.

The people from the two sides confronted each other in Wuyue Valley, refusing to give in to each other, but there was no trouble, maintaining a stalemate.

Among them, the members of the Yanyue Sect were waiting for the Supreme Elder to leave the customs, while the members of the Zhou family in Anhai City were scattered all over the place, collecting all kinds of refining materials needed on Zhang Yi's list.

However, whether it was the elder of Yanyue Sect or Zhou Chi, the patriarch of the Zhou family, they were quite confident and calm, thinking that they would be the final winner.

And so, until one day...

"boom!"

Suddenly, in the Yanyue Sect among the mountains, there was a surge of true energy that soared into the sky from the back mountain and went straight into the sky, attracting the attention of countless people.

"This is... the Supreme Elder has left the customs!"

In the Yanyue Hall, the three elders sensed the changes in the outside world, and they were suddenly shocked. They understood something, and ecstasy appeared on their faces.

Immediately, they looked at each other, and without daring to delay, they immediately turned into streams of light and swept towards the forbidden area behind the mountain.

That is, after dozens of breaths, the three of them came to a desolate place.

This is the retreat place of the Supreme Elder, and it is also a forbidden place. It is surrounded by bone-eroding winds all year round, which can destroy the flesh, and it is difficult for ordinary people to approach.

At this time, the three of them landed here, even if they had the cultivation base of the holy realm, they had to support the shield of true energy, so that they could stay here without being affected.

And in front of them, in a low mountain peak surrounded by layers of gray gale, at this moment, a thick pillar of true essence light shot up into the sky.

A strong wave came from the mountain, and at a close distance, it even made the three people's true energy obscure, and some of them were not functioning smoothly.

"The Supreme Elder is strong and diligent, it seems that Wuyue Mountain is indeed a treasure land!"

Feeling the fluctuations in cultivation from inside the mountain, an elder couldn't help but said with a smile.

Not long after that, there was a rumbling sound, the thick pillar of true essence light dissipated, and the layers of wind surrounding the mountain peak also dispersed, and a figure of immortal wind walked out of it slowly.

"Congratulations to the Supreme Elder for leaving the customs!"

Seeing this, the three of them moved in their hearts and quickly cupped their fists to congratulate.

"During the period of my temporary retreat, the three elders have worked hard. How is Wuyue Mountain and Anhai City's reaction?"

The figure of Xianfeng Daogu approached, showing his true face. He was an old man wearing a broad avenue robe and a long snow-white beard.

At this time, he looked at the three of them and asked indifferently.

"Return to the Supreme Elder, we have sent additional people to the Five Sacred Mountains Valley to ensure that no one enters it."

"And the envelope written by you has also been delivered to the Zhou family."

"Oh, how did the other party react?"

the old man asked calmly.

"An Haicheng didn't respond. Instead, not long after, a sage came to visit. He seemed to be the helper Zhou Chi had asked for."

An elder replied, telling about various events that happened during the retreat of the Supreme Elder.

"snort!"

"It's just a city lord who failed to attack the third heaven. He is really arrogant. He really wants to toast and not eat or drink as punishment. It seems that he is going to force me to do it!"

After listening to the elder's narration, the old man was a little sullen, and his breath was so strong that the surrounding rocks exploded and turned into white ashes.

"The Wuyue Valley and the spiritual veins below it must be obtained by the Yanyue Sect, and those who stand in my way will die!"

"Looking for help?"

"What level of saint can a city lord of an ordinary city come into contact with? This is nothing to worry about."

"Wait for the three of you to come with me. Today, we'll meet each other for a while..."
