“What is the strongest divine ability True Master Chen has cultivated?” The dragon-robed cultivator Zhao Daolin asked, “If we travel together this time, we will most likely encounter strong enemies. We will understand each other better. Only then will we be able to work together to defend against strong enemies. The strongest magical artifact I have refined is the Heaven-covering Seal bestowed by my sect. It can barely be called a Dao artifact, but it does not have a Primordial Body Tool Spirit. In my hands, it can only display thirty to fifty percent of its might.”

After saying that, the dragon-robed cultivator took out a small cyan seal filled with profound talismans. It was neither gold nor stone. It tossed out the air and rapidly grew larger. The profound talisman spirit light on its body flickered, as if it could not be wrapped in spiritual mist. The heaven-covering seal grew larger and larger, as if a bottle of several hundred feet tall boulder was lying in mid-air, and it possessed the power of intimidating souls.

Although it was only an elementary Dao artifact, it gave everyone a tremendous power to cover the mountains. If they were suppressed by this Heaven Covering Seal, their cultivation would be slightly weaker, and their bodies would probably be directly beaten into minced meat.

Chen Xuncai did not believe Wang Qingchang. Madam Tian Yin and the others had told others everything they had done to suppress the situation. Naturally, he would not reveal his family’s wealth honestly.

Chen Xun took out two sets of spirit swords from his spatial ring and said, “I cultivate the Thousand Slaughter Sword Formation. When I encounter a strong enemy, I can instantly release ten waves of lightning sword light. Even a Celestial realm expert can withstand one or two waves of lightning sword light. Unfortunately, the Heavenly Artifact Spirit Sword Formation is difficult to obtain, and its power is limited. If I can find a few Heavenly Artifact Spirit Swords in the Sea Ruins this time, then it will be worth it.”

“True Master Chen can cross the Storm Sea with a single leaf of withered wood. His strength is truly extraordinary.” Dragon-robed cultivator Zhao Daolin sighed.

Madam Tian Yin, Nangong Xun, Yang Zongtao, and Qu Nanyin were slightly moved. Perhaps they hadn’t expected Chen Xun to actually possess such extraordinary strength. It seemed that their eyesight was still a bit weaker than Zhao Daolin and Wang Qingchang’s.

Yang Zongtao and Qu Nanyin could easily split out 200 strands of divine sense. The key was that each strand of divine sense could be used to form a sword array with a top-grade Advanced Grade Spirit Sword or even an Earth Artifact Spirit Sword. This was definitely not an easy task.

Hearing Chen Xun’s tone, the Sword Formation could replace the Heavenly Artifact Spirit Sword to increase its power. Even if he couldn’t compare to the owner of the Veluriyam Ship, Wang Qing, his soul cultivation wasn’t much weaker than Madam Tian Yin’s.

“The Western Continent has a large number of sword xiuzhe. Supreme-grade spirit swords can be encountered but not sought. If you find any Heavenly Artifact Spirit Swords on this trip, it will naturally belong to True Master Chen, True Master Yang, and True Master Qu.” Dragon-robed cultivator Zhao Daolin said.

The more spirit swords the Little Thousand Swords Formation had, the higher the grade, and the more powerful it would be.

At this moment, half of the Little Thousand Swords Formation Chen Xun was sacrificing was a top-grade Advanced Spirit Sword, and half was a low-grade Earth Artifact. However, when three hundred Spirit Swords were sacrificed together, their power wasn’t any weaker than a low-grade Dao Artifact.

With the help of the Profound Evolution Grand Formation formed by the disciples, Chen Xun was able to unleash the fourth level of the Minor Thousand Swords Formation. Not only could he slash through the defense of the Third Grade Dao Weapon, the Profound Heaven Disk, but he could also slash through the Primordial Chaos Demon’s Primordial Heavens.

If the Little Thousand Sword Formation were to be exchanged for mid-grade Earth Artifacts or even high-grade Spirit Swords, its power would be doubled, but at the same time, it would also require a doubled cultivation of the primordial spirit.

However, if a supreme grade Heavenly Artifact Spirit Sword or even a Dao Artifact Spirit Sword were to be formed into a Pregnant Artifact Spirit, not only would the requirements for a Primordial Spirit not increase again, it would even greatly decrease.

Apart from possessing all sorts of divine abilities, the most important function of the artifact spirit was to be able to control magical artifacts on its own.

Profound Fire Ancestor was able to simultaneously sacrifice thirty-six Poison Flame Divine Lamps, mainly because the thirty-six Poison Flame Divine Lamps all gave birth to artifact spirits. Otherwise, the Nirvana Realm True Monarch would have to sacrifice thirty-six Heavenly Artifacts at the same time.

The power of the sword array was extremely strong, but the demand for top-grade spirit swords was also enormous. This also made the Tian Jun Great World like Cloud Continent, where even top-grade spirit swords could be encountered but not sought.

Mountain Parasol had gathered less than 1,500 Earth Weapons Spirit Swords over the years, and Chen Xun and Ji Lie had split one-third of them. Thus, apart from Qianlan, no one else dared to cultivate the Minor Thousand Sword Formation.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t cultivate, he couldn’t afford to cultivate.

********************

Apart from Yang Zongtao and Qu Nanyin, Madam Tian Yin and Zhao Daolin had more than a dozen subordinates at the Heavenly Origin and Origin Core realms.

Although they were rogue cultivators, they were only compared to those powerful sects and clans that had been passed down for tens of thousands of years, or even hundreds of thousands of years, there would not be any shortage of disciples that would be served by Sui Hu.

Since Wang Qingchang was the owner of the Veluriyam Treasure Ship, he still had nearly a hundred disciples following him to the sea. However, these disciples’ cultivation weren’t very strong. Only six of them had cultivated Origin Core and were more than enough to preside over the restriction array on the Veluriyam Treasure Ship.

Chen Xun boarded the Veluriyam Treasure Ship with Wang Qingchang and the others. After listening to Wang Qingchang’s introduction, the Veluriyam Treasure Ship still lacked a layer of formation restrictions to be able to completely refine into a Dao Weapon. The main reason he went to sea this time was to find the extremely precious materials needed to refine the Veluriyam Treasure Ship into a Dao Weapon.

Wang Qingchang wanted to possess a Dao Artifact, so he decided to find a place to set up a sect and recruit disciples to inherit Dao Arts.

Regardless of how much Wang Qingchang’s words were true or false, they sounded decent and did not reveal the slightest flaw.

After boarding the Veluriyam Treasure Ship, everyone began to drop blood into the Clear Heart Dao Talisman. Chen Xun could sense the changes in Qi that no one else could conceal from the Dao Talisman.

Everyone rode on the Veluriyam Treasure Ship and cruised around Light Island for more than ten days, but they did not find a suitable ally.

Either it was an evil cultivator who obviously cultivated demonic arts, or his strength was not high enough to increase the strength of the alliance, or he was arrogant, vigilant, and unwilling to accompany others.

As for the disciples of the powerful sects and races, there were often a dozen or even dozens of them accompanying each other, so it was even more impossible for them to pay attention to Chen Xun and the others.

Seeing that no suitable alliance could be selected, Chen Xun and the others took the Veluriyam Treasure Ship and sailed towards Four Seas City at the southern tip of Light Island.

“Why don’t we go directly to the Sea Ruins and stay in Four Seas City?” Black Tea couldn’t help but ask curiously as she watched the majestic Four Seas City gradually emerge from the sea and sky.

Wang Qing stood with his long sleeves, turned his head and asked Chen Xun,

“True Master Chen seems to be entering the Storm Sea for the first time?”

“In the past, when I was immersed in cultivation, I rarely left the Stillwater Continent’s territory.” Chen Xun said.

‘”Stillwater Continent is the sacred city of the ancient Jiang Royal Clan. It is rumored that there are Brahma Heaven Realm immortals guarding it. It is indeed a good place to cultivate. If it weren’t for my reluctance to part with my family business in the Golden River, I would have moved to Stillwater Continent to cultivate.” Wang Qingchang said.

“Indeed, no one dares to break the rules of the Jiang clan in Stillwater Continent so easily. Cultivation resources are controlled by several powerful sects and clans. It is difficult for rogue cultivators to rise to prominence. There are advantages and disadvantages,” Chen Xun said. “But looking at the magnificent scale of Four Seas City, I didn’t expect that there would be such a city overseas before I went out to sea.”

“Light Island is a hundred thousand kilometers wide. It is no less than the territory occupied by the powerful races of the Western Continent. There are also hundreds of rogue cultivator sects in the mountains.” Wang Qingchang said. “The Four Mings Sect Master Gui Wanhai cultivated his origin soul a thousand years ago and became the only True Monarch of the Nirvana Realm in Light Island. He gathered all the sects of Light Island to form the Four Seas Alliance today. Afterwards, the Four Seas City was built at the southern tip of Light Island, and the General Union was also set up in Four Seas City, becoming the gathering place of Light Island and Xuan Xiu. Regardless of whether it was a strong sect disciple or a rogue cultivator, they would most likely have to stay in Four Seas City to make some preparations before heading to the Sea Ruins. In my opinion, True Human Chen’s sword formation is extremely powerful, but it consumes a lot of True Essence magic power. If we can find spirit medicines that can quickly replenish True Essence magic power like the Essence Liquid in Four Seas City, we’ll have a 30-50% chance of winning if we encounter a strong enemy again. Besides, I might be able to find a Heavenly Artifact Spirit Sword in Four Seas City … ”

Chen Xun knew that there must be a powerful sect in the Heavenly Jun Great World that had grasped the Spirit Lake Grand Formation passed down from ancient times. With the Spirit Lake Grand Formation, one could condense elemental liquid from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

However, the elemental liquid produced by the various powerful sects was severely insufficient for their own disciples. Even if a small amount of it occasionally leaked out, it would still be the target for everyone to compete for at an astronomical price.

Chen Xun smiled and said, “If I were rich, I would continue to cultivate in Stillwater Continent. I don’t need to run to the Storm Sea to take this risk–but accompanying True Monarch Wang and Madam Tian Yin into Four Seas City is also good.”

Jiang shi purchased the secret refining method of the Blazing Sun Lightning Shield from Ju Zhen Pavilion and handed it to Kui Long Pavilion, hoping that Kui Long Pavilion could use dragon scales to refine a large amount of the Blazing Sun Lightning Shield for Jiang shi.

Now that Dragon Scale and Dragon Blood were no longer flowing out cheaply, Chen Xun entered Four Seas City. Even if he saw a Heavenly Artifact Spirit Sword that could make him attack, he still didn’t have any resources in his hands.

As for Yuan Liquid … why would he buy Yuan Liquid from other families at an astronomical price?

*************************

Four Seas City was extremely large. Apart from the mortals who were as dense as rivers, there were also a lot of Xuan Xiu in the sect. Cultivators at the Origin Core Realm and the Dharma Aspect Realm could be found everywhere.

Chen Xun, Wang Qingchang, Zhao Daolin, and Madam Tian Yin walked into the most imposing pill shop in the city.

The waiter who was guarding the shop had good eyesight. When he saw Chen Xun and the others walk in, he immediately notified a Origin Core Realm cultivator to hurry over to greet them.

There was indeed a small amount of Primordial Liquid sold in this pill shop. They were all priced at two. Chen Xun estimated that the bottle of Primordial Liquid in his arms could be exchanged for three top-grade Heavenly Artifact magic treasures. If Immortal Ao Island produced it in four to five years, it could be exchanged for an Elementary Dao Artifact magic treasure or an Elementary Heaven and Earth Mountain Protection magic array …

Chen Xun secretly gasped as he thought to himself, A Pure Yang Dao Artifact is so worthless. A hundred kilograms of Primordial Liquid can be exchanged for an Elementary Dao Artifact magic treasure? What was the value of the Spiritual Lake Array that could condense Heaven Earth Yuan Qi into Yuan Liquid?

Chen Xun knew that there were priorities. Now was not the time for the Spirit Lake Grand Formation to appear, and such an ancient grand formation should not have been in Mountain Parasol’s hands. Otherwise, even if he had been in seclusion for two to three hundred years, he would still have to deduce the Spirit Lake Grand Formation first.

Wang Qingchang, Zhao Daolin, Madam Tian Yin, Yang Zongtao, and Qu Nanyin first confirmed their favourite pills and magical artifacts, then followed the waiter to the second floor where the formations were set up to trade.

Chen Xun didn’t have any extra resources to exchange for pills and magical artifacts. He stayed downstairs with Black Tea, Wang Qingchang, and the others’ accompanying disciples and casually flipped through the pill booklet to gain more knowledge.

When Wang Qingchang and the others came downstairs in satisfaction, a few more people walked in from the outer door. One of them saw Wang Qingchang and bowed, “True Monarch Wang is also in Four Seas City. Could it be that he wants to go to the Sea Ruins to try his luck?”

This person’s cultivation was at the peak of the Dharma Aspect Realm. His face was thin and long, and he wore a cyan dao robe. There wasn’t anything particularly eye-catching about him. However, among his accompanying disciples, there was a short and fat old man wearing a scarlet-yellow robe that caused Chen Xun’s eyebrows to jump.

The short and fat old man was no other than the outer sect elder Fan Chengqian of the Divine Night Sect back then.

After Lord Crimson Brow died in the Heavenly Furnace Secret Realm, Fan Chengqian and the others escaped from Yunzhou with Gu Yangziju and entered the Heavenly Jun Great World.

They did not have a foothold near Danzhou. After leaving the Snowdragon Mountain, they disappeared. According to Chang Xi, they were going to meet up with Ancestor Yu Xuzi, who had also arrived at the Heavenly Jun Great World from the other side.

Even if Yu Xuzi arrived at the Heavenly Jun Great World from another realm, he was still just a rogue cultivator. Without a sect, powerful clans could rely on him.

When Chen Xun was in Danzhou, he didn’t find out the whereabouts of Yu Xuzi, Gu Yangzi, and the others, but he didn’t expect that he would actually see the outer sect elder of the Divine Night Sect, Fan Chengqian, in the Four Seas City of Light Island.

Fan Chengqian followed Gu Yangzi into the Heavenly Jun Great World. Since he appeared in Four Seas City, where was Gu Yangzi?

Gu Yangzi, did you find Ancestor Yu Xuzi? Who is that Dharma Aspect Realm cultivator wearing a cyan Daoist robe? Could he be a disciple of Yu Xuzi from another realm?

At this moment, countless questions surged into Chen Xun’s mind.

Chen Xun thought that the Heavenly Jun Great World was boundless, Most of the sects Cloud Continent entered were gathered in Danzhou. After he left Snowdragon Mountain, it was unlikely that he would encounter anyone who knew him. Thus, he did not change his appearance with black tea. Unless he changed his appearance, he would not be able to hide any flaws in his appearance in front of Wang Qingchang and the others.

Fan Chengqian walked into the shop and recognized Chen Xun instantly. His expression changed in shock …
