Chapter 57 The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish!

The Longmen Tide is a grand event held once every hundred years on the East China Sea coast of Linglong Domain. It attracts the participation of almost all the sects and families in the territory, and also attracts countless independent cultivators to come here to participate in the event.

During each Longmen tide, several or even dozens of geniuses get amazing opportunities, and countless lucky ones soar to the sky, bringing continuous vitality to the Linglong Domain's immortal cultivation world.

However, this vitality is for the world of immortal cultivation.

For ordinary people, every Longmen tide is a disaster for the six countries in the East China Sea. Over thousands of years of history, there are countless countries that have changed dynasties due to poor handling of Longmen tide disasters.

For feudal dynasties, a natural disaster is a battle for the survival of the country. If not handled properly, the refugees caused by the disaster will be the gravediggers of the dynasty.

But this did not prevent the noble families from taking this opportunity to exploit the people of Donghai.

Along the way, Zhang Wei witnessed many man-made tragedies. Before the natural disaster of Longmen Tide came, various man-made disasters had already occurred on this land.

If nothing unexpected happens, the Zhang family is one of them.

But thanks to Zhang Wei's intervention, Zhang Xiong, who had discovered a bigger way to make money, no longer cared about the refugees' meager income and had higher aspirations.

The money I earn from cheating refugees is not even as much as a fraction of what I make from selling bread, cough cough... Gonglong powder!

In addition, as the family was undergoing transformation, Zhang Xiong also wanted to accumulate some merit for the family. Therefore, instead of taking advantage of this opportunity to hoard goods, he generously provided some supplies to the disaster victims along the way.

For a time, the Zhang family was misunderstood by all the aristocratic families.

Just give all that money to the poor?
There is no good end to being a heretic, especially at this juncture.

However, due to the recent Yang family massacre, the Zhang family, as the winner, had a reasonable reason to do some charity to comfort the souls after surviving the disaster, and to create some momentum for Zhang Wei who was exiled to the East China Sea, so everyone gave up attacking the Zhang family.

Anyway, the little supplies the Zhang family has have an almost negligible impact on the huge market of East China Sea and will not hinder everyone from making money!

Even some of the Zhang family's allies took the initiative to help and build momentum for the Zhang family, allowing the Zhang family to easily gain a good reputation among the refugee groups in the East China Sea.

"My mother has no life, my hometown is empty!"

"My mother has no life, my hometown is empty!"

Zhang Wei, who was flying in the sky on the Moyun Shuttle, vaguely heard bursts of chaotic prayers coming from below.

Looking down, I saw a group of ragged refugees kneeling around a wooden statue of the Lotus Buddha, performing some ancient and mysterious ritual.

This situation is very common. Ever since the East China Sea began to become chaotic, Yun State's control over the grassroots people has plummeted, and all kinds of obscene worship have emerged in the countryside.

There are also cultivators from foreign lands who pretend to be gods and cheat people out of their money.

But the object of worship of this group of people is very special. It is the Mother of No Birth of the White Lotus Sect, which is strictly prohibited in Yun State and several neighboring countries!

That’s right, he’s the professional rebel who is either rebelling or on his way to rebel!
Gathering so many followers and holding a sacrifice in broad daylight shows how corrupt the situation in the East China Sea has become!
But Zhang Wei did not step forward to cause trouble for the White Lotus Sect as he did to expose the obscene worship in Blackwater Town.

Not to mention how powerful the sect is that has spread across the six countries in the East China Sea, just looking at the current situation in the East China Sea, Zhang Wei couldn't bear to destroy the last comfort in the hearts of the people.

Life is hard enough, we must always find some faith to support us, right?

Even if the other party's intentions are not pure, they are still better than those corrupt officials who squeeze them dry and do not treat them as human beings!

What's more, after experiencing the massacre of the Yang family, Zhang Wei was also dissatisfied with Luo Yun's sentence.

In this situation, asking him to help eradicate these small forces is a daydream! Luo Yun only paid him a few months' salary. Is it worth it for Master Zhang to waste a lot of spiritual stones to help him maintain his rule?

If Zhang Wei hadn't been worried about the underdeveloped Zhang family bringing trouble to the four major foundation-building families within the Yun Kingdom, he would have even thought about going into the palace himself to get rid of Emperor Yun.

Because of this, although Zhang Wei witnessed many unorthodox sacrifices and direct rebellion scenes along the way, he did not try to stop them.

Except for the demon cultivators.

"I didn't expect that a sect like the White Lotus Sect would appear openly. The situation in the East China Sea is not optimistic."

While thinking about this, Zhang Wei drove the Moyun Shuttle away from this area.

At the same time, the sacrificial ceremony was taking place below.

Luo Hongxia, dressed in the robe of the White Lotus Sect, looked up at the sky with some confusion, but only saw a small black dot.

Luo Hongxia's strange behavior also attracted the attention of Ziyuan who was standing next to her. She followed her gaze and thought she was envious, so she said, "Don't worry, when you become an immortal in the future, you will be able to fly in the sky like that person!"

At this time, someone said, "That's a flying magic weapon. How many Qi-refining monks can afford it?"

Ziyuan retorted, "When Hongxia becomes the empress in the future, won't it be easy for her to spend tens of thousands of taels of silver to buy a flying magic weapon?"

As he spoke, he put his arm around Luo Hongxia's shoulders and said, "Hongxia, I will rely on you from now on!"

In response to Ziyuan's attitude, Luo Hongxia could only shake her head and smile bitterly, but in her heart she couldn't help imagining herself flying in the sky.

As she thought about it, Luo Hongxia couldn't help but think of someone.

"What are you thinking? He is obviously doing this for his own benefit. I am the one who was implicated by them..." Luo Hongxia shook her head and smiled bitterly.

By now, she had gradually figured out what had happened. She was just an excuse used by the Yang family to deal with Zhang Hui. Strictly speaking, she was the one who had suffered an unprovoked disaster.

"But it is true that he killed Yang Ling for me and solved the problem. I heard that he was also exiled to the East China Sea. If you meet him, help him."

On the other side, Zhang Wei also came to the East China Sea coast of Yun Country.

However, today there is only a stretch of sandy beach on the East China Sea coast, and the ocean that was in constant contact with the beach has now disappeared.

Or rather, it retreated, and the coastline was now hundreds of miles away from its initial position! And this number continued to grow!

The receding sea water revealed the magnificent and colorful seabed underneath, exposing this land that was usually untouched except for the pearl girls and immortal cultivators to the sun.

Countless giant corals worth a fortune in Yundu can be found everywhere at this moment.

But at this moment, no fisherman stayed here to collect these riches.

Because the receding sea water will return with greater ferocity and destroy everything along its way!
"The scale of the Longmen Tide this time is huge."

Standing in the sky riding the Moyun Shuttle, Zhang Wei could still see the white line from afar.

According to the records of a total of ten Longmen tides in the last thousand years, the sea water retreated as far as eighty miles before the Longmen tide, but this time it reached over a hundred miles, the highest in a thousand years.

This means that the hundreds of miles of depth left by various countries on the East China Sea coast may not be enough, but it also means that the probability of good things appearing in the Longmen tide this year is greater!
Zhang Wei can’t take care of the people’s affairs at the moment, and this is not something he can worry about. He can only take care of his own affairs first.

Zhang Wei found a random mountain near the sea and sat down to recuperate while waiting for the arrival of the Longmen tide.

In the blink of an eye, seven days passed.

Feeling the sudden surge of spiritual energy, Zhang Wei opened his eyes.

"coming!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a strong spiritual wind blew, making Zhang Wei and the vegetation on the mountain peak rustle, and then the mountain peak under his feet began to shake violently.

No, not just the mountain beneath his feet!
The whole world began to shake!

In the distant sky, a white line appeared, almost covering the entire skyline.

Then the white line rose rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, a gray mountain range hundreds of feet high rose from the ground! In an instant, Zhang Wei's ears suddenly felt a temporary tinnitus, and his hearing could not tolerate any sound except the raging tsunami.

The gray mountain range was rushing towards Zhang Wei at a speed that ordinary people could not understand. In almost the blink of an eye, the terrifying wave was already above his head.

A large shadow covered Zhang Wei and the mountain under his feet!

boom! ! ! ! !
The mountain, which was hundreds of feet high, was swallowed up in an instant, and the solid mountain body was directly collapsed by the vast sea water. This mountain, which was famous on the coast of the East China Sea, disappeared into history from then on.

However, the huge wave continued to rush forward without any sign of stopping, as if the mountain was not a mountain but a small stone blocking the way!

Above the sky, Zhang Wei couldn't help but sigh as he watched the land transform from mulberry fields to vast sea in an instant, and the tide gradually receding. "It's worthy of being called the Longmen Tide..."

If he didn't have a magical flying weapon, facing a natural disaster of this magnitude, he could only do what other casual cultivators did, buy an Izumo shell, find a safe place to hide, and wait for the Longmen tide to calm down before surfacing to look for opportunities.

Or, like more independent cultivators, they can stay outside the extreme range of the Longmen Tide and wait until the Longmen Tide ends before entering.

But in this way, it is easy to miss those truly valuable treasures!

As the saying goes, the bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish!
The same is true for Longmen Tide!
A large amount of resources will come with the tide, but they will also be pressed into the ground along the way with the continuous impact of subsequent tides. After dozens of tides, if you want to find these treasures, in addition to luck, you have to turn over the entire ground of the East China Sea coast!

Therefore, the treasures that most of the cultivators who participated in the Longmen Tide could actually obtain were only a small part of those brought over by the last Longmen Tide.

Before the next wave of Longmen tide arrived, Zhang Wei quickly controlled the Moyun Shuttle to lower its altitude and fly almost brushing the sea surface.

At the same time, release your radar consciousness.

The detection range of two hundred feet is enough for him to detect from the sea level to the bottom of the sea! Any valuable treasures along the way cannot escape Zhang Wei's eyes!

Not long after, Zhang Wei's spiritual consciousness detected a powerful energy fluctuation, and he immediately threw out the magic fishing net he had specially made for Longmen Chao, accurately trapping the energy source.

"I go!"

In an instant, Zhang Wei felt a huge force coming, and the force transmitted by the fishing net almost brought him under the surging sea.

Fortunately, Zhang Wei finally managed to stabilize himself and pull up his harvest.

After seeing clearly what he had gained, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Third-level spiritual material, red crystal black iron?! Good stuff!"

According to the grade, the third-level spiritual material can be used to refine the third-level magic weapon for the Purple Mansion Realm cultivators! Selling such a large piece of red crystal black iron can conservatively make a few thousand taels of spiritual stones!
Zhang Wei was in a good mood after having a successful start the first time. He then did the same thing again and successfully obtained several more spiritual materials before the second Dragon Gate tide arrived.

Zhang Wei even got a fist-sized piece of third-level ambergris!
As in its previous life, ambergris is a waxy substance that condenses in the intestines of whales from the indigestible remains of squid and octopus they swallow.

But in this world, the source of ambergris has also changed to various monsters, so its effect as a spice is also of great benefit to the cultivators in the Purple Mansion Realm.

The value is naturally higher!

What's more, this is the third-level ambergris condensed by a whale monster in the Purple Mansion Realm. Just one gram can be sold at a high price of hundreds of taels of gold!

The piece of ambergris in Zhang Wei's hand is as big as a fist, which is more than enough to exchange for tens of thousands of taels of gold!

"The income is quite good, the income is quite good..."

Zhang Wei put these things into his mustard bag with satisfaction.

In preparation for the Longmen Tide, Zhang Wei emptied his mustard bag. Except for some necessary items, all the sundries such as gold were left at Zhang's house just in case.

And he had only one goal in Longmenchao!
Fill the mustard bag!

……

In this way, Zhang Wei stayed in the East China Sea for three full days. The Longmen tide also lasted for three days and three nights, with a total of more than three hundred waves, turning all the areas Zhang Wei saw into a swamp.

Except for a few mountaintops that are still strong, there is no longer a single protruding place to stay on the entire East China Sea coast of Yun Kingdom.

It was not until this time that the independent cultivators who had been hiding under the water with the help of Izumo Shells to avoid facing the waves directly and waiting for the end of the Longmen Tide in a safe area entered the scene.

The area then became lively.

However, even if the number of these monks were to increase several times, the vast East China Sea could still be described as sparsely populated.

Therefore, the monks had enough space to search for their own opportunities. Unless they were specialized robbers or the treasures they discovered were too valuable, even if they met on the road, the monks would stay away from them cautiously, for fear of causing unnecessary misunderstandings.

In this way, Zhang Wei also came to the fifth day of his Longmen Tide.

In five days, Zhang Wei collected a lot of good things in the first three days with the help of magic weapons, but later with the end of the tide, Zhang Wei's harvest was not very good.

After two days of searching, Zhang Wei only got a third-level Sea Spirit Heart Grass. The rest were some first-level spiritual materials, and a bunch of spiritual materials that he didn't recognize, which were probably special products of the deep sea.

Crack!

A flash of lightning struck, instantly killing a golden-bone spirit fish that had exposed its head to eat spiritual herbs.

Then Zhang Wei waved his hand, and the golden-bone spirit fish immediately flew to his hand. A wisp of black sand passed by, and the golden-bone spirit fish was instantly gutted, and all the unused internal organs were taken out.

Then a surge of electricity occurs, some spices are sprinkled in, and the simple grilled fish is done!

While chewing the fish, Zhang Wei thought: "It seems that there is nothing good in this sea area. It seems that it is time to change places. The next step is to go to Qinghai County to see the hidden spiritual veins."

The spiritual vein in Qinghai County is not far from where Zhang Wei is now. It only takes one day and one night to get there by riding the Moyun Shuttle.

I hope that spiritual vein will be flushed out this time.

Otherwise I'll just have to dig holes in the sea floor.

After finishing eating the fish and resting for a while, Zhang Wei directly piloted the Moyun Shuttle towards the direction of the spiritual vein on the map.

However, halfway through the journey, Zhang Wei's radar consciousness sensed a huge creature rushing towards him, so he quickly drove the Moyun Shuttle to the side.

The next moment... BOOM!!!
Below the Moyun Shuttle, a column of water with a diameter of about ten feet shot up into the sky. If Zhang Wei was still there, he would definitely be knocked over and fell into the water.

But in front of Zhang Wei, who had noticed the opponent's movements in advance, the opponent's wishful thinking came to nothing.

Zhang Wei directly stretched out his hand, and as the thunder surged, the electromagnetic magic sand hidden in his sleeves turned into a spear and pierced through the water column in the air, and also turned the monster that offended him into a gourd!
"hiss---"

As the water column fell, the severely injured monster began to twist its body wildly, while letting out a teeth-grinding hissing sound.

Zhang Wei could see clearly that the attacker was a sea snake-like monster, whose cultivation was at the late stage of Qi Refining. But strangely, a pair of tender claws grew under its belly! There were even two bulges on the top of its head!
At the same time, it is also very fierce, even a little weird!

Even though Zhang Wei pierced its body, the madness in the eyes of this sea snake monster remained unabated. Instead, it roared and twisted its body, willing to bite Zhang Wei even if its flesh and blood were torn.

This has gone beyond the nature of monsters and beasts to avoid danger.

The monster is not a flat-headed beast. When it knows it is defeated, its first reaction is definitely to escape. However, this sea snake monster is like a brainless zombie, only focusing on gnawing on other people's brains!

“Not normal…”

Zhang Wei waved his finger, and the electromagnetic magic sand immediately began to wreak havoc inside the body of the sea snake monster, directly taking its life.

Then Zhang Wei took the corpse of the sea snake monster and his eyes lingered on the claws under its belly and the bulge on the top of its head for a while.

This obvious feature of alienation made Zhang Wei think of a possibility, and he broke out in a cold sweat!
"The dragon that fought Kui in Shuiyun County... couldn't it be in this area?"
