The Great Wild God - Chapter 348
Chapter 348 Sea Pavilion Liquid
The next day, Zhao Hongling and five law enforcement elders from Sea Pavilion went to visit Chen Xun at Xiuzhu Peak in Elephant Mountain.
Several bamboo houses were built along the stream. The small river flowed with water. Ding dong sounded. Chen Xunxiu stood with his hands and felt the sound of nature. Only when Zhao Hongling and the others approached did he slowly turn around.
Zhao Hongling’s worship of the stone dragon quickly spread throughout Blackstone City, but the five law enforcement elders of Guihai Pavilion were uneasy.
In the past, without mentioning the grudges, if Guihai Pavilion wanted to gain a foothold in Ji Yue, whether they could obtain the protection of Daoist Primordial Core or not, the significance was completely different. However, this Skydragon Seed’s actions might not be too evil.
If Shi Longzi could use the Guihai Pavilion as bait to lure and kill hundreds of rogue cultivators, he would be able to sacrifice the Guihai Pavilion for other benefits without blinking an eye.
How could such an evil cultivator be worth the slightest bit of support from the Guihai Pavilion?
However, their foundations in Ji Yue were unstable, and they saw Shi Longzi’s ruthless methods in the sea north of Blackstone City. Not to mention Zhao Hongling’s insistence, the five law enforcement elders did not dare to offend this evil cultivator who acted without any scruples.
The five law enforcement elders followed Zhao Hongling into the Purple Bamboo Forest uneasily. When they saw the tall figure standing in front of the Stone Stream turn around, they saw the fallen Loose Cultivator Sect Leader who had lived in Sea Pavilion for several months and had fallen into the sea after being killed by the pirates. They were all dumbfounded and did not know what was going on.
Chen Xun looked at the shocked crowd and said, “I am neither a stone dragon nor a sect lord. I am Chen Xun of Mount Wu …”
“Senior is the Azure Water Marquis who runs through the Northwest Region!” A law enforcement elder cried out.
“Marquis Azure Water is a thing of the past. My cultivation is low, and I dare not claim to run through the Northwest Domain. I am just a loose person, traveling through the Starfall Sea in search of Dao Fate. I have made many enemies in the past, so I do not want others to know my whereabouts. I hope that you will not reveal my identity to others.” Chen Xun said.
“Without Chen shi’s permission, we will never reveal Chen shi’s identity.” Zhao Hongling said.
Although Chen Xun had long since given up the position of Marquis of Azure Water to Ji Dongze to succeed him, the various regions of Cloud Continent still regarded him as the true Marquis of Azure Water.
After the destruction of the Divine Night Sect, Chen Xun, Chang Xi, Zhao Cheng’en, and Fang Xiao Han were the four most famous surviving direct disciples of the Divine Night Sect.
The ancestor of the Dragon Gate Sect, Tao Jinghong, invited Chen Xun and Chang Xi to cultivate in the Dragon Gate Sect, but Chen Xun refused. After that, he established the Kui Dragon Pavilion in the Azure Water Mountain and became the first sect in the Northwest Region to refine artifacts. He had been invited by Tao Jinghong and the Governor-General of the Northwest Region to cultivate in seclusion for three years in the Southern Mountains of Tu Mountain, refining the Spirit Gathering Mountain River Chariot and was famous throughout the world.
In the battles of the Northwest Domain, Chen Xun had even more outstanding achievements. He first established himself as the Azure Water King, then was conferred the title of Marquis of Azure Water by God-controller Mansion. He was also the first person in Cloud Continent to be conferred the title of Marquis of a different Heaven Origin Realm cultivator for thousands of years.
It was rumored that Chen Xun had been in seclusion in Mountain Parasol for a long time, and no one had actually concealed his whereabouts. He had already arrived at the Falling Star Sea more than ten years ago.
Submitting to Azure Water Marquis Chen Xun was completely different from submitting to Evil Cultivator Shi Longzi. The five law enforcement elders didn’t have the slightest bit of resistance, and they all knelt down and bowed, vowing not to reveal Chen Xun’s whereabouts.
Chen Xun took out several storage bags from his bosom and handed them to Zhao Hongling and the others, saying, “These rogue cultivators did evil deeds and acted recklessly. Only then did I decide to teach them a lesson.” Apart from these magical artifacts, you can still use them reluctantly. I will pass on a few more Dao Arts and profound arts to you. When the Gui Tou Reef landed, you must concentrate on cultivating and protect the peace of the sea area around the Gui Tou Reef as much as possible. Apart from cultivating Sea Pavilion disciples vigorously, they should also try their best to contact the decent rogue cultivators. The Ghost Head Reef is actually a sealed spirit vein. I have set up a few formations on the reef island. After refining the inner Corpse Fiend, the spirit veins can be reactivated, laying the foundation for Sea Pavilion … ”
No one in Cloud Continent could recognize the terrain of the Spirit Lake, or even if they knew the terrain of the Spirit Lake, they simply did not have the means to extract the elemental liquid accumulated in the Spirit Lake.
In essence, the Ghost Head Reef was no different from a sealed Dragon Creek Lake spirit vein. Once the terrain was destroyed, the Yuan Liquid accumulated within it for thousands of years would dissipate.
Chen Xun needed Sea Pavilion to guard Guitou Reef for him. A few law enforcement elders would cultivate with Zhao Hongling on Guitou Reef for a long time. Chen Xun didn’t need to hide the secrets that they should know.
Chen Xun stretched out his finger and pointed at the void. He used the Concentration Curse, the Nine Qi Yang Refining Art, the Origin Returning Art, and other Foundation Establishment Dao techniques to directly penetrate into the depths of Zhao Hongling and the others’ souls through his spiritual will, allowing them to comprehend them while they were cultivating in the future.
The five law enforcement elders all received their storage bags.
Chen Xun had long since erased the divine soul imprints from these storage bags. It was very easy for them to refine them with blood again and penetrate their Spiritual Sense into the storage bags. When they saw what was hidden inside, they were all stunned.
Inside each bag of holding was a low-grade Earth-ranked magical artifact, a top-grade spirit armor, several bottles of medicinal pills, and an incomparably precious Sea Beast Origin Pill.
Cloud Continent cultivators were as numerous as the stars, and even Heaven Origin Realm cultivators might not be able to have an Earth-ranked magical artifact in their hands.
Although the Sea Beast Origin Pill could not fundamentally change one’s cultivation talent, as an Earth-ranked spirit pill, one could unearth one’s cultivation potential with the greatest difficulty. Ordinary Origin Pills cost at least ten million kilograms of Scarlet Essence Copper. It was simply not something that ordinary Reincarnation Realm cultivators could enjoy.
With these magical artifacts and Sea Beast Origin Pills, even if their cultivation bases were unable to break through in a short period of time, their individual combat strength would definitely increase by several folds. It was definitely not something that they could compare to in the past.
And the Foundation Establishment Dao Art that Chen Xun taught them could help them lay a deeper foundation …
Apart from thanking Chen Xun for his kneeling, the five law enforcement elders didn’t know how to express their excitement at this moment, but they didn’t hesitate to say that Chen Xun had any instructions.
In the bag of holding that he gave Zhao Hongling, Chen Xun placed eighteen Nine Revolutions Golden Pills in it.
Among the disciples of Sea Pavilion who moved south with Zhao Hongling to Ji Yue, more than 30 had peak True Yang Realm cultivation. With these Nine Revolutions Golden Pills, five or six disciples should be able to break through the profound apertures and advance into the Reincarnation Realm in the near future.
With the strength of Zhao Hongling and the others, guarding Guitou Reef was still too weak. If they did not vigorously cultivate their direct descendants who were loyal to Sea Pavilion, even if they recruited a large number of rogue cultivators, there would inevitably be a great calamity of guests bullying their lords …
These magical artifacts and pills were all obtained from Chen Xun’s robbery of loose cultivators, and he didn’t feel any heartache when he dispersed them.
Xiuzhu Peak was originally Chen Xun’s cave residence in Elephant Mountain. When he bid farewell to Shaoxi Kang, Shaoxi Kang was extremely generous and gave Xiuzhu Peak to him.
Naturally, he had to accept the gift for free. Chen Xun could be considered to have an official place to stay on Ji Yue Island.
A few days later, Zhao Hongling brought her only daughter, Du Tong, and the five law enforcement elders to Xiuzhu Peak.
Guihai Pavilion nominally sent these disciples to Xiuzhu Peak to guard the cave for Chen Xun. In the eyes of outsiders, they viewed Du Tong and the others as hostages sent to Shi Longzi by the Guihai Pavilion.
Only Zhao Hongling and the others knew that being able to stay at Xiuzhu Peak in the Elephant Mountain, Du Tong, and the others were not only much safer than landing on the Ghost Head Reef, but also that cultivating with Chen Xun’s personal guidance was a good thing that many Reincarnation Realm cultivators didn’t dare to dream of.
Du Tong was already seventeen years old, her body had grown, and she was even clearer and more beautiful than her mother, Zhao Hongling.
She was born with a vicious illness. Only when Du Liangyong was invited by the Crimson Star Palace did he exchange for a Life-changing Disease Refining Pill. She started cultivating at the age of ten. Foundation Establishment was much later than the other disciples. She only cultivated to the True Yang Transformation Blood Realm, but her aptitude was quite good …
*******************
In the next few months, Chen Xun didn’t stay at Xiuzhu Peak. Instead, he returned to Guitou Reef secretly with the ship from Guihai Pavilion.
The main island of Guitou Reef was the largest in area, but its murderous aura was extremely heavy, making it difficult for those with a slightly lower cultivation base to gain a foothold.
Guihai Pavilion chose an annular reef island next to the east wing of Guitou Reef to build a new sect.
This reef island was situated within the perimeter of the reefs, and there were numerous waterways and reefs that could stop tyrannical sea beasts from intruding into it. The trees on the island were towering, the soil was fertile, and there was an inner lake. Digging a river connected to the outer sea, Sea Pavilion’s ship with the Spirit Gathering Mountain River Chariot could sail directly into the inner lake.
Sea Pavilion built gates and dock castles along the inner lake; Disciples and relatives could also reclaim the wasteland to grow food on the island. The outer side of the reef island can also be built as a haven for passing ships to rest here temporarily to replenish their fresh water and food …
With Sea Pavilion standing guard here, Chen Xun refined a few more Yang Refining Arrays and placed them inside the Ghost Head Reef.
This kind of formation, which was refined on the basis of the Nine Qi Yang Refining Technique, could convert the Profound Cold Spirit Qi inside the Ghost Head Reef into Profound Yang True Fire, and then refine the Corpse Fiend.
At this moment, Chen Xun took out the dozens of Origin Pills that he had placed in the Ghost Head Reef earlier.
The Guihai Pavilion had a foothold here, but it was unable to stop experts above the Origin Core Realm from spying on the situation inside the Guitou Reef.
The current Guitou Reef was no different from the sealed spirit veins.
Even if an Origin Core Realm expert saw the situation inside the Ghost Head Reef-Chen Xun believed that over the past few years, there would definitely be many Origin Core Realm experts resting on the Ghost Head Reef-they wouldn’t be able to forcefully occupy a sealed spirit vein, but the situation would be different if the secret of the Origin Core being able to condense essence liquid and form spirit essence pearls were leaked out.
Although it might take hundreds of years for the Origin Core to form a Spirit Origin Pearl, for large sects that had inherited it for thousands or tens of thousands of years, they had the patience to do so.
Chen Xun’s current plan looked like he wanted to refine the Corpse Fiend first, but he had to reopen this spirit vein and use it as his foundation to establish a sect.
A spirit vein hanging alone overseas was not worth the big sects fighting over and robbing the Ghost Head Reef.
Another five disciples in Sea Pavilion broke through their profound apertures after consuming the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill and advanced into the Reincarnation Realm.
One of the disciples was called Chen Chang. He was only twenty years old. He was originally the nephew and grandson of a Law Enforcement Elder surnamed Chen from the Guihai Pavilion, but he possessed the Ancient Desolate Bloodline. Upon entering the early Reincarnation Realm, he had refined and opened four spirit veins. His talent was extremely good. Even in the Divine Night Sect and the Dragon Gate Sect, he was qualified to be directly recruited as an inner Sect disciple.
Chen Xun also accepted Chen Chang as a nominal disciple, imparting him the Kui Long Yang Refining Technique and the Profound Derivation Technique, and even using two extremely high-quality Sea Beast Origin Pills to help him build a solid dao foundation …
After Fan Ziya forced Sea Pavilion away from Yangquan, his influence increased greatly. Soon, the Flowing Cloud Pavilion, another sea guest sect in Yangquan, was unable to hold on.
After the Fan Ziya Sect attacked and killed the two Supreme Elders of the Floating Cloud Pavilion Sect, hundreds of disciples of the Floating Cloud Pavilion were forced to board a few ships and lead more than 2,000 relatives to the sea. They wanted to move to Ji Yue Island to avoid disaster.
When the disciples of the Flowing Cloud Pavilion stopped at the Guitou Reef, the Guitou Pavilion had already reached its initial scale. Thinking about how Ji Yue did not have any experts to protect him, it was extremely difficult for them to survive. The three Flowing Cloud Pavilion elders with late Reincarnation Realm cultivation had merged with the Guitou Pavilion as guests and settled in the Guitou Reef.
The Half-yearly Treasure Appraisal Conference of the Treasure Pavilion was once again held in Blackstone City. This time, not only did the Treasure Pavilion send talismans to Xiuzhu Peak in advance, it also catalogued the treasures collected by the Treasure Pavilion over the past half-year.
This time, two more Spirit Gathering Mountain and River Chariots will be bidding at the Treasure Appraisal Conference.
