The Fourth Financial Crisis

While Wen Tong and Lin Jianxing were talking, a bolt of white light suddenly shot out from the depths of the boundless void sea, carrying a majestic momentum and roaring across the entire nameless hill.

Wherever the white light passed by, all the Qi Refining Stage disciples and their belongings were swept away by this bright light, as if they were absorbed into an unknown space.

After the light dissipated, the noisy square suddenly became quiet. Only a few high-level monks who saw off their disciples were left standing in the field, and some unowned magic weapons that exceeded the Qi Refining Stage standards were left on the ground.

With a wave of Wen Tong's sleeves, these forbidden magic weapons were put into the storage bag in his sleeve robe, and they were confiscated by the Wuliang Sword Sect.

Every time there is a trial on the battlefield outside the territory, there will always be some unwilling testers who try to fish in troubled waters by bringing some magic weapons that are not in the Qi refining stage. However, the ancient immortal formation is not so easy to deceive, and in the end they will take advantage of the Wuliang Sword Sect who is responsible for cleaning the battlefield. .

Seeing that all the monks in the Qi Refining Stage had been teleported, Wen Tong took advantage of the situation and said to the senior officials of various factions in Zhongzhou who came to see them off: "The extraterritorial battlefield trial has officially started. Please come and pick them up after the trial is over!"

The senior monks present knew that there was no point in staying here any longer, so just like teachers and parents sending students to the college entrance examination examination room, they all set up their shields and left.

At the same time, the testers, including Yang Lu, have been teleported into the outer battlefield.

The battlefield outside the territory is said to be the ancient battlefield between ancient immortals and demons.

The art style of the entire extraterrestrial battlefield is very much like Gothic aesthetics, filled with a sense of oppressive darkness and the smell of bloody curses. The earth here is dark red, as if it is soaked with blood. Weird and twisted plants are growing on this wild land. If you take a deep breath, you can even smell the faint smell of blood in the air, and the entire sky is also full of blood. Shrouded in a faint red mist.

Although Yang Lu had fully understood all the information about the foreign battlefields in advance and listened to the personal explanations of the foreign battlefield veteran Zhou Butler many times, being exposed to this terrifying atmosphere in person still made him feel a little uneasy from the bottom of his heart. Only he The protective aura that lights up slightly on the surface of his body can make him feel a little sense of security.

It was the middle of the night on the battlefield outside the territory. Looking up, the "moon" of the Kyushu world, that is, the satellite celestial body called the Ancient Heaven, was still hanging high above the head, but the stars in the sky were covered by red mist and could not be seen clearly. .

The inability to observe the starry sky means that the traditional technology of positioning based on the starry sky has completely failed here. It is not known where this extraterritorial battlefield is hidden in the Kyushu Continent, but all cultivators have been unable to find it for tens of thousands of years.

After mobilizing his spiritual consciousness and feeling it carefully, Yang Lu found that the concentration of spiritual energy around him was more than ten times higher than that in Haiya City. Other than that, there is nothing special about this place compared to Zhongzhou Continent.

Since Tiandao is invisible and intangible, if Yang Lu hadn't known in advance that the rules of Tiandao here were different from those in the Jiuzhou cultivation world, Yang Lu wouldn't have any special feeling at all. It seemed that this place was a shooting base for horror movies with a weird style.

According to the experiences summarized by past cultivators, the extraterritorial battlefield has a total area of ​​millions of square kilometers and presents an irregular octagonal shape. At the edge of the outer battlefield is the endless sea of ​​demonic mist. As long as ordinary monks in the Qi refining stage go deep into the sea of ​​demonic mist for more than half an hour, the demonic energy will enter the body and transform into a mindless demon.

Although every time the extraterritorial battlefield is opened, more than one million Qi-refining stage cultivators will be randomly teleported here, but after being scattered over nearly 10 million square kilometers of land, they still appear sparse. Therefore, the early stage of the extraterritorial battlefield is mainly to collect supplies. For the main purpose, bloody killings often begin in the second half of the trial after the demonic tide spreads.

During this relatively peaceful period, even if two cultivators accidentally met head-on, most of them would turn around and leave with a tacit understanding, so as not to lose their lives due to premature involvement in the battle, or to take advantage of the fishermen watching the battle.

This period was the golden period of Yang Lu's layout.

Since the beginning of the first Tiandao Crisis, tens of thousands of extraterritorial battlefields have been held continuously. Even in the seven thousand years since the end of the second Tiandao Crisis, there have been thousands of them. Although the collapse of the Tongtian Pagoda five hundred years ago led to major changes in the rules of the game on foreign battlefields, cultivators still summed up many valuable experiences with blood.

The first is the teleportation location in the extraterritorial battlefield.

The teleportation destination of the Ancient Immortal Formation was random. Even though Yang Lu and Li Qingning were teleported hand in hand by the Ancient Immortal Formation, after the transmission, they were still separated by an unknown distance.

Despite this, the nine ancient teleportation arrays in various parts of Zhongzhou still roughly correspond to the nine regions of the outer battlefield: north, northeast, east, southeast, south, southwest, west, northwest, and center.

The corresponding teleportation destination of Zhongzhou Ancient Immortal Formation is the central area of ​​the extraterritorial battlefield.

All monks who participate in the extraterritorial battlefield through the Zhongzhou Ancient Immortal Formation will be teleported to the central area of ​​the extraterritorial battlefield. In other words, no matter how far away Li Qingning is from Yang Lu, he cannot be too far away.

Being transported to the central area of ​​the outer battlefield can be said to have advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that no matter where the final safe zone falls, the testers in the central area have enough time to rush there. The disadvantage is that the testers in this area have Being in a battleground, you are likely to be attacked by enemies from all directions.

Thinking of this, Yang Lu immediately took out his fixed star formation flag from his storage bag.

The battlefield outside the territory is shrouded in magic fog all year round, making it difficult to determine one's position through the traditional method of looking for reference objects. This set of luxurious formation flags worth more than 6,000 yuan of spirit stone coins is a special magic weapon specially used to position oneself on the battlefield outside the territory. Outside the battlefield, it is just a pile of scrap metal. Not only that, the positioning error of this set of formation flags is also quite large, and sometimes it can even be deflected for dozens of kilometers. Only rich people like Yang Lu who are not short of money will buy this kind of useless equipment for themselves.

But Yang Lu's purchase of this set of formation flags was not simply because he was rich and willful. Li Qingning also had a set of the same set of fixed star formation flags. Before the two set off, they had already agreed on many possible meeting places in advance and arranged them side by side. Alright priorities. If the first meeting place is unfortunately covered by the demonic tide, then we will meet at the second meeting place. If the second meeting place is also unfortunately covered by the demonic tide, we will meet at the third meeting place. meet……

By analogy, the two agreed on more than ten meeting places in various directions on the battlefield outside the territory, and these two sets of fixed star formations and flags were one of the important means for the two to find each other on the battlefield outside the territory.

Of course, Yang Lu would definitely not be able to meet Li Qingning with bare hands.

In terms of cultivation alone, Yang Lu was completely useless in front of Li Qingning. Even if he had a talisman worth six to seven hundred thousand spiritual stone coins in his arms, he could not sustain the consumption of several waves of battles. In the past, it had hindered her.

Therefore, before the rendezvous, Yang Lu still had a lot of work to complete. In the first few days, Li Qingning had to rely on his own strength to get through it. No matter how hard Yang Lu rushed forward, it would take at least four or five days to complete the layout.

According to the product manual of the Wuliang Sword Sect's self-operated mall, Yang Lu carefully played with the fixed formation flag, and then took out the map of the extraterritorial battlefield to compare it. He found that his position was roughly southwest of the central area of ​​the extraterritorial battlefield.

After quickly taking a Hidden Spirit Pill, he took out the transparent crystal bottle containing the Shared Wealth and Suffering Gu from his storage bag.
