In the small courtyard.
A pristine charm trembling non-stop, stopped outside the formation.
Upon sensing the movement outside, Lu Xuan swept his Spiritual Sense, directing the charm towards himself with his Spiritual Power.
A familiar voice emanated from the charm.
“Friend Lu, it’s me. Friend Zhou and I have found a third-grade Spirit Gathering True Liquid on that unnamed island. As we were about to return, we detected an anomalous spiritual energy from somewhere in the ocean, causing us to divert our course.”
“Eventually, we found a colossal water curtain in the sea, seemingly concealing a Secret Land. Thus, we expressly invited you to come and explore this Secret Land together.”
“Friend Lu, such an opportunity is rare. We must not miss it.”
Finally, Shi Zhong said solemnly.
He wasn’t worried that Lu Xuan’s joining would affect his gains.
The appearance of the Secret Land was well known amongst the cultivators in the surrounding sea area. As time passed, more and more Foundation Establishment Cultivators would learn about it. Lu Xuan shared a similar status with him and had a certain friendship, and the likelihood of gaining the fortune of Secret Land would only increase when they worked together.
“What a waste of sincerity.”
Lu Xuan lamented. After a moment of reflection, he politely rejected.
“I’m sorry, Daoist Shi, I have no intention of exploring the Secret Land at this moment. If I consider going, I will contact both of you first.”
As for this Secret Land that suddenly appeared in the Boundless Sea, it was not, of course, his desire.
However, given the presence of the Light Cluster, he doesn’t need to compete bloody against other cultivators for a chance, even risking his life.
“When power becomes even greater and there’s no substantial threat lurking inside Secret Land, it might be acceptable to take a look.”
Lu Xuan thought to himself.
The information about the tremendous Secret Land appearing in the Boundless Sea grew more intense by the day. The next day, Song Yu came knocking to seek advice.
“Uncle Lu, do you happen to know about the appearance of a Secret Land in the outer sea?”
The moment he stepped into Lu Xuan’s courtyard, Song Yu hurriedly asked.
“I’ve heard bits and pieces, why? Are you looking to have a share of it?”
“Indeed I am.”
The Scholarly Cultivator candidly affirmed.
Hearing that Lu Xuan merely heard rumours, he promptly pulled out a second- grade Water Mirror Charm from his storage bag.
“Uncle, this Water Mirror Charm carries imprints of images related to the Secret Land. I ask that you review it.”
A trace of spiritual force infiltrated the Water Mirror Charm, and the clear images of the Secret Land became visible to Lu Xuan.
A tall water wall stretched for who knows how many miles, with numerous illusory Flood Dragons and monstrous creatures fluttering above it. Vaguely, one could see an island, as well as palaces on the island.
Outside the water wall, there were hundreds, if not thousands, of tiny black dots. Only on closer inspection did it become clear that these were cultivators flying about.
“With so many people, not to mention cultivators at Foundation Establishment Level on the island and powerful cultivators from elsewhere rushing in after hearing the news, how could your Song Family possibly seize the chance amidst everyone else?”
The Kongming Island’s Song Family, located as it is on the island group known for its harsh cold, sparse Spiritual Energy and blocked information flow, has no less than ten cultivators at Foundation Establishment Level. Along with an influx of cultivators from elsewhere following the spread of information, one can imagine the number of Foundation Establishment cultivators present.
Song Yu forced a smile.
If it weren’t for the presence of Lu Xuan, who was at the Foundation Establishment Realm and born into a Great Sect, the Song Family, based on Kongming Island, would be ranked near the bottom in terms of strength. They were indeed in no position to compete with other cultivators or forces.
“But missing such a once-in-a-century opportunity would be a huge pity.”
He couldn’t help but say to Lu Xuan.
“I’m not stoppingyou from seeking fortunes in that Secret Land. I just hope you could be a bit more patient.”
“Obviously, the water wall is a Formation Restriction on the periphery of the Secret Land. If you go there now, you will be like a headless fly, wasting your lifeforce.”
“Waiting until the situation becomes clear wouldn’t be too late.”
“Yes, Uncle Lu is absolutely right.”
Song Yu nodded earnestly in agreement with Lu Xuan’s thoughts.
But the thought of the Secret Land possibly being deciphered at any time, and the treasures within potentially being wiped out by other cultivators, caused his heart to itch.
After bidding farewell to Lu Xuan, he walked away indecisively, appearing both joyful and anxious.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan shook his head helplessly and continued to patrol his Spirit Field to inspect cultivating Spiritual Plants.
Chongning Island.
“Heaven blesses NingFamily! Heaven blesses NingFamily!!!”
Inside a luxurious hall, Ning DeShan, an elder with the visage of a Dark Vulture, couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief.
At his feet, Lady Ning lay prostrate on the ground, displaying her perfect curves.
“Congratulations, ancestor! The Ning Family finally has a chance to change its fate!”
She raised her head slightly, her breath as refreshing as orchid, and said softly.
“Yes, the emergence of the Secret Land signifies the opportunity for reshuffling. As long as we seize it, we can reverse our slump and restore the former glory of the Ning Family.”
The elder with the visage of a Dark Vulture squeezed Lady Ning’s snow-white chin with his hand that resembles an eagle claw and said bitterly.
In recent times, the Ning Family has been going through a rough patch.
After planting Invisible Algae that were accidentally obtained in the seabed of Kongming Island, where they raised Spiritual Fish, they initially thought they would be able to discreetly lure the Spiritual Fish into their waters.
However, things didn’t go as expected. The Song Family of Kongming Island didn’t lose anything, in contrast, Chongning Island inexplicably became infested with a massive number of Invisible Algae, which drove almost all of their Spiritual Fish away to reproduce elsewhere.
Adding insult to injury, an Evil Insect invasion took place. Due to delayed news and underequipped preparations, numerous Ning Family cultivators died, resulting in heavy losses.
The consecutive happenings of these two events put the already precarious Ning Family in a more critical situation.
But now, they have an opportunity to change their predicament.
As long as they venture deep into the newly emerged Secret Land, contend using their lives, and obtain treasures and lucky chances, it might be possible for them to surmount their predicament and be rejuvenated.
“Perhaps one could even find treasures that extend lifespan in there!”
Ning DeShan, who was nearing his life’s limit, optimistically thought.
“I, Lu Xuan, have made it this far today thanks to my own efforts and dedicated cultivation.”
“Water Glow Grass, increase my Cultivation Level!”
Lu Xuan reached out to touch the surface of a White Light Group and shouted softly.
Before his voice even died down, the Light Group disintegrated into countless tiny spots of light that surged into his body.
A surge of rich and pure spiritual power spontaneously formed in his meridians.
Around him, a minor Spiritual Energy Whirlpool quietly formed, drawing a large amount of Spiritual Energy from the courtyard into the whirlpool.
Lu Xuan operated the “The Great Five Elements”, controlling the spiritual power to channel it into his Dantian.
The accumulated spiritual power formed a droplet of concentrated Spiritual Liquid, which slowly dripped deep into his Dantian.
He continued to touch one White Light Cluster after another, the clusters rushing into his body one by one, bringing him various rewards, including Cultivation Level, charms, Elixirs, and more.
After nearly a year, the planted Water Glow Grass is finally matured.
Droplet after droplet of Spiritual Liquid dripped into his Dantian, and Lu Xuan felt his Dantian growing more and more swollen. Finally, with a slight noise, his Dantian abruptly expanded several times while his Spiritual Sense rushed to the sky and returned to his body in a blink.
“Foundation Establishment Mid-term.”
Lu Xuan, feeling the overwhelming spiritual power in his body, silently marveled.
