Chapter 154: East Pole Spirit Turtle

Chapter 153

With Jiang Lin’s strength, he would need the help of his family to obtain the blood of a Grade 3 sea beast. Even the Jiang family might not be able to obtain the blood of a Grade 4 sea beast.

This was because in the entire Pulao Kingdom, apart from the immortal sects, only the Eastern Ocean Ruler could kill a Grade 4 sea beast.

As a top-notch resource, it was improbable that they would sell Grade 4 sea beasts to outsiders. Other than the imperial family, even Golden Core Sages had to trade for it.

After Jiang Lin left the mountain this time, his status in the family increased. After all, he was from a side branch of the family. The Jiang family had limited resources. Moreover, he had yet to reach the Golden Core Plane.

One could imagine how touched he was when Chen Jingzhai suddenly gave him the blood of a Grade 4 sea beast.

Jiang Lin could sense his Little Master-Uncle’s sincerity. It was not for the so-called spirit wine.

He was only an Advanced Foundation Plane disciple after all. What kind of unique spirit wine could he brew?

Handing the blood of a Grade 4 sea beast to the Golden Core Sage of the Wine Celestial lineage was a sure way to obtain spiritual wine.

Jiang Lin was very self-aware. He did not reject this concern from his Little Master-Uncle. Some things went without saying and were better done than said.

…

Therefore, after obtaining the blood of a Grade 4 sea beast, Jiang Lin went into seclusion training on the ship.

Chen Jingzhai did not care about this. To him, a Grade 4 sea beast was only a resource for the innate money tree.

The sea beast was huge. If he gave a portion of its blood to Jiang Lin, there would still be a lot left.

He used his cauldron to store a portion of it before throwing the Grade 4 sea beast into the innate money tree.

Although it was very difficult to kill a Grade 4 sea beast, it would not be a problem for him to kill one if Hei Ji helped. However, most of the Grade 4 sea beasts were in the deep sea and it was rare to encounter them, so he did not bother to search for them.

In his current situation, a Grade 4 sea beast was only a drop in the bucket.

He was looking forward to the Eastern Ocean Remains this time. He hoped there would be great gains.

Jiang Lin had been in seclusion for seven days and had just only cultivated all the wine talismans in his body.

There was still a lot of Grade 4 sea beast blood left that was slowly brewing in the wine gourd. Over time, the wine talisman in the wine gourd would transform, and Jiang Lin’s strength would increase.

After he came out of seclusion, the ship was still sailing rapidly on the sea.

There were a lot more corals on the deck. They decorated the ship like trees.

“According to the sea map given by Senior Brother Qing Mu, we’ll reach the East Pole Spirit Turtle Island in a day. I heard that it’s the first island we will encounter as we enter the Eastern Ocean Islands,” Chen Jingzhai said with a smile.

The Eastern Ocean was too vast. It took more than ten days to reach their destination. One had to know that the speed of the ship had already reached Grade 3 at sea.

At this speed, he would have already traveled around the Pulao Kingdom several times.

The Eastern Ocean Islands were the territory of the Three Great Immortal Sects. This was a behemoth, and each of the Three Great Immortal Sects controlled hundreds of islands of different sizes that had cities on them.

“I’ve heard of the East Pole Spirit Turtle Island. It’s said to be a gathering place for rogue cultivators in the Eastern Ocean.” Jiang Lin nodded and said, “Perhaps we can find out about Chu Jingsong. Should we go up and take a look?”

“Of course!” Chen Jingzhai affirmed. “We haven’t received the message yet. It seems that there’s still some time before the remains make their appearance. We can go to the island and experience the differences of the Eastern Ocean cultivators.”

The disciples of the immortal sects all had unique communication methods. As long as they confirmed that Chu Jingsong had stayed on the East Pole Spirit Turtle Island, they were very likely to find him. At that time, his team would be complete.

Besides, they had to investigate the matters of the Eastern Ocean Remains and make some preparations in advance. Otherwise, they would be at a huge disadvantage. Intelligence would always come first in an unfamiliar place.

After a day of sailing, the East Pole Spirit Turtle Island was in sight.

Chen Jingzhai did not want to be too high-profile. After letting Jiang Lin fly out of the ship, he put it away.

The women stayed in the junk. Everything went well. Then, Chen Jingzhai and Jiang Lin quietly entered the East Pole Spirit Turtle Island.

From the air, the East Pole Spirit Turtle Island looked like a giant turtle. Not only was the shape of the island similar to a turtle, but the island’s mountains rose and fell, crisscrossing like turtleback lines.

The island was not small. It was about the size of half a state of the Pulao Kingdom.

There were spontaneously formed colonies along the coast, and in the heart of the island, there was another city that looked like it held a million people. The city had no walls, only low buildings that were scattered around.

The architectural style was also different from the Pulao Kingdom. It was more ostentatious and artistic.

Chen Jingzhai and Jiang Lin blended into the East Pole Spirit Turtle Island like two drops of water. The two of them changed the appearance of their robes. Like the others, they turned aqua blue.

After strolling for an hour, Chen Jingzhai and Jiang Lin gained a preliminary understanding of the customs here.

Generally speaking, Meditation Plane cultivators were the majority, and Foundational Cultivators rarely had the time to wander around.

On the other hand, there were many marketplaces and areas allocated for stalls.

This was considered a local specialty. Most of these stalls did not have anything Chen Jingzhai valued. Nonetheless, it was a novelty for the cultivators who had just arrived.

They did not look at the goods for long. The items that were on display could not attract their attention.

After agreeing to let Jiang Lin take the lead, Chen Jingzhai followed silently.

Soon, they arrived at the center of the island and entered the Treasure Pavilion under the Mingyuan Dao Sect.

“So you’re a fellow cultivator from the Luo Sheng Sword School.” The shopkeeper of the Treasure Pavilion bowed and welcomed him warmly.

“Shopkeeper Qin, sorry to bother you,” Jiang Lin said. “I’m here to gather information.”

“Is it about the Eastern Ocean Remains?” Shopkeeper Qin said with a smile. “In the past two years, the news of the appearance of the Eastern Ocean Remains has caused an uproar, attracting many cultivators.”

“Isn’t the Eastern Ocean Remains exclusive to disciples of our immortal sect?” Jiang Lin asked in surprise.

“That’s right.” Shopkeeper Qin knew the temper of the sect’s disciples and explained patiently, “The cave residences in the ocean are different from on land. The appearance of a cave residence will attract many sea beasts. In addition, it will cause a chain reaction and might even involve a hidden cave residence.”

Unlike the overbearingness of the land-bound immortal sects, the Three Great Immortal Sects of the Eastern Ocean were more gentle.

The rogue cultivators were highly recognized, and their style was different from the disciples of the land-bound immortal sects.

The reason was that the situation was different. The sea was more dangerous. There were thousands of sea beasts alone. Different sea beasts had different abilities. This was pressure from the surroundings.

The other was that the population on the islands of the Eastern Ocean was sparse, and it was hard to replenish fresh blood in a kingdom without mortals. This prompted the Three Great Immortal Sects to go on land to select aspirant cultivators. This was internal pressure.

In short, with the appearance of the Eastern Ocean Remains, the Three Great Immortal Sects would not forcefully seal off the entrance of rogue cultivators.

This was beyond Jiang Lin’s expectations. He had not expected this situation.

“Speaking of which, the clues to the cave residence come from rogue cultivators.” After Shopkeeper Qin explained, he reminded them, “The rogue cultivators are not the enemies of the immortal sect disciples. The two of you must remember this clearly.”

“I understand.” Jiang Lin nodded. “Apart from the information about the cave residence, I also want to find the whereabouts of my fellow disciples. I wonder if Shopkeeper Qin can help me?”

“Of course. On account of the Luo Sheng Sword School, I’ll give you a 30% discount.” Shopkeeper Qin smiled.

Jiang Lin nodded, but he was not surprised. He took out enough spirit stones to buy information about the cave residence and Chu Jingsong.

The intelligence business was unique to the Three Great Immortal Sects.

Even rogue cultivators who wanted to buy information had to buy it from the businesses under the Three Great Immortal Sects. This had already become the foundation of the immortal sects.

After purchasing the information, Jiang Lin and Chen Jingzhai rented a courtyard to live in Island Heart City. It was also under the Three Great Immortal Sects. Apart from the courtyard for their daily life, there was also a cave residence for them to cultivate.

In the room, Chen Jingzhai set up a restricted formation.

“Junior Brother Chu has come to the East Pole Spirit Turtle Island four times in the past three years. According to the time, he should have returned about two months ago.” Jiang Lin handed over the jade slip. “I don’t know what happened now.”

“Let’s wait a few days first.” After reading the contents of the jade slip, Chen Jingzhai pondered and said, “If we still haven’t seen him, we’ll follow his route. I’ll get the cranes to fly over first.”

“Alright!” Jiang Lin nodded. The two Sky Black Cranes had already left the infancy stage. They were at the advanced stage of Grade 1 and could enter Grade 2 at any time. Just their flying speed was enough to get rid of any dangers lurking behind them. “Next is the appearance of the Eastern Ocean Remains. The situation is much more complicated than I imagined.”

He handed the second jade slip to Chen Jingzhai and sat at the side without saying anything. Chen Jingzhai frowned after reading the second jade slip.

In this jade slip, other than the information about the Eastern Ocean Remains, there was also an analysis of the situation in the Eastern Ocean Islands.

The most powerful of the rogue cultivators in the Pulao Kingdom was the imperial family, followed by the northern nobles. These could not even be called rogue cultivators, but dynasty cultivators.

However, it was different in the Eastern Ocean. The highest cultivation level of the rogue cultivators here was actually at the Spirit Plane.

The Eastern Ocean was vast beyond words, and there was no lack of resources. Opportunities were everywhere.

In the past, even the Three Great Immortal Sects could not stop the opportunities of the rogue cultivators. More importantly, the Three Great Immortal Sects welcomed rogue cultivators.

The elders of the Three Great Immortal Sects even had many rogue cultivators as friends.

Everyone visited each other, discussed subjects such as the Great Path, alchemy, and weapon refinement, and even went out together.

Under such circumstances, it was worrying for them when it concerned the Eastern Ocean Remains.

“What do you think?” Chen Jingzhai asked.

“If this continues, the Three Great Immortal Sects will have no authority.” Jiang Lin’s face was deadpan. “But this is their business. It has nothing to do with us. We still have to take precautions.”
