The Legacy of the Daoist Master Qianyuan

This day.

As the Black Armored Turtle carried Ling Pengyun and Ling Yunhong past an island only a hundred feet in size in the Boundless Demon Sea, the two were startled by bursts of spiritual energy emanating from the island.

They also looked towards the deserted island.

Immediately, the two saw two Middle-Stage Foundation Establishment cultivators fighting in a forest on the deserted island.

One of them was robust, standing ten feet tall, with skin the color of iron and stone, and possessing powerful Qi and Blood; he appeared to be a Body Cultivator.

He fought with a double-edged axe.

Another middle-aged monk in black wielded a long sword in battle.

Although the two were of similar cultivation levels, the stronger Body Cultivator seemed to have the upper hand.

Beside the battle between the two, there were the remains of several second-tier puppets.

Ling Pengyun and Ling Yunhong were not interested in the two cultivators fighting, but only glanced at the remains of the second-tier puppets.

Seeing that the puppets were all severely damaged and unusable, they withdrew their gaze and rode the Black Armored Turtle that sat beneath them into the distance.

Meanwhile, on a deserted island.

The middle-aged black-clad cultivator who was at a disadvantage knew that if he continued fighting the Body Cultivator, he would surely be defeated and killed.

He immediately begged for mercy.

"Brother An, we have known each other for decades. I wonder if you could spare my life? I promise I will not reveal the secrets of this place."

"I swear an oath."

Although the strong Body Cultivator did not want to harm his friend of decades, he knew that there was a treasure here, and if word got out, it would bring him endless trouble.

His expression hardened, and he patted the Storage Bag at his waist, swallowing a mid- Second Grade Middle Rank Spirit Burst Pill, which boosted his strength.

The attacks in his hands grew stronger and stronger, causing the black-clad middle-aged cultivator's Law Artifact to retreat steadily.

"Brother Lin, don't blame me. If you have to blame someone, blame the rumor that there is Second Rank Spirit Pool in the Qian Yuan Cave Residence here."

The Second Rank Spirit Pool is a treasure, as it can continuously produce Second Rank Heaven and Earth Spiritual Water -Second Rank Heaven and Earth Spiritual Water, which can enhance the cultivation level of Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

It can be said that obtaining a Second Rank Spirit Pool is equivalent to steadily entering the Foundation Establishment Consummation Realm and becoming extremely wealthy.

As for the value of this item, it is worth at least 100,000 Spirit Stone.

Otherwise, this Body Cultivator wouldn't have attacked his black-clad cultivator friend of several decades.

Before ten moves had passed, the middle-aged cultivator in black was cleaved into several pieces by the Body Cultivator's double-bladed axe.

The Body Cultivator looted the black-clad cultivator's belongings, then summoned a ball of flame, burning the black-clad cultivator's corpse to ashes.

Then he entered a secluded cave abode on the deserted island.

Just a few breaths later, a faint Array Formation Aura emanated from the deserted island.

Ling Pengyun and Ling Yunhong, who were about a mile away from the deserted island, both noticed this.

They opened their eyes again and turned to look at the deserted island.

Seeing that the battle between the two Late-Stage Foundation Establishment on the deserted island had already decided the victor, only a pile of ashes remained at the site of the previous battle.

The living person, though nowhere to be found, still lingers on that deserted island.

The next moment, a tremendous surge of Spiritual Qi erupted from the deserted island.

Meanwhile, the Array Formation Aura emanating from the deserted island was gradually weakening.

In just a short while, the Array Formation Aura dissipated into smoke.

Immediately afterwards, a surge of vibrant Spiritual Qi gushed out from the cave.

"This is the effect of the Formation Breaking Talisman!"

"Spirit Vein?"

"Could there be a cave abode there?"

Upon seeing this scene, Ling Pengyun muttered a guess to himself.

"It's possible. According to the white-haired old shopkeeper who sold us the map, most of the Demon Beast in this Boundless Demon Sea are aquatic. Many powerful cultivators in the Boundless Sea Region live in seclusion on the islands in this Boundless Sea Region."

"Perhaps the cultivator who was just killed was the Master of that cave abode."

"Otherwise, the survivor after the battle wouldn't have needed to use the Formation Breaking Talisman to break that Second Grade Middle Rank Array Formation."

Ling Yunhong agreed.

"Third Grandfather, shall we go together to take a look?" Upon hearing this, Ling Pengyun was tempted.

"That's exactly what I was thinking too. Our Lineage now has a large number of Spirit Vein. If our trip goes smoothly, the number of Spirit Vein we control will increase exponentially in the future. No matter what happens, our Lineage is extremely lacking in Second Grade Middle Rank formations."

"If we could dismantle the Second Grade Middle Rank Array Formation set up on that deserted island and bring it back to the Lineage, the Lineage could have one more formation."

Ling Yunhong said with a smile.

The two agreed and immediately rode together on the Black Armored Turtle, stealthily heading towards the deserted island.

Before long, the two landed on the deserted island.

The arrival of the two on the island also alerted the Body Cultivator was searching for spiritual objects in Nameless Cave Residence on the deserted island.

When the Body Cultivator realized that Ling Pengyun and Ling Yunhong both possessed the aura of the Foundation Establishment Completion, he tried to escape.

Ling Pengyun had already unleashed the Azure Sea Heavy Yuan Treasure Pearl.

Although the Body Cultivator tried his best to use various defensive methods to resist, under the absolute weight of the Azure Sea Heavy Yuan Pearl, which weighed "two hundred thousand catties", all those defensive methods were as thin as paper and were easily crushed one by one.

Subsequently, the Body Cultivator cultivator was also smashed to death.

Ling Pengyun waved his hand to retrieve the Azure Sea Heavy Yuan Treasure Pearl, looted the Body Cultivator's belongings, and then went with Ling Yunhong to find the secluded cave abode on the deserted island.

Because the formation of the cave abode was broken, the two of them were able to enter it without any problems.

This cave abode is indeed a place for cultivation and meditation, and there is a First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Vein deep underground.

In addition, the two also discovered a mummified corpse sitting cross-legged on a jade bed in a quiet room of the cave abode.

Clearly, this mummified corpse was the true Master of this cave abode, but it has now passed away, although all its valuables remain on its body.

Ling Pengyun collected the valuables from the mummified corpse and ransacked the cave abode. Then, together with Ling Yunhong, they dismantled the Second Grade Middle Rank Array Formation there.

Once the formation was dismantled, the two quickly fled far away, using the Black Armored Turtle to escape the area.

Not long after the two left the deserted island, a group of Qi Training Stage crabs were attracted by the Spiritual Qi spreading from the island and occupied the deserted island where there were no formations to cover the Spirit Vein.

Several days later, in an unnamed sea area.

On the Black Armored Turtle, Ling Pengyun and Ling Yunhong were counting the dozens of spiritual items placed in front of them.

Most of these spiritual items are materials from Demon Beast, but there are also a few valuable items.

Among them, the most valuable items are a "Second Grade Middle Rank Array Formation Inheritance", a First-Tier Superior-Grade Puppet Inheritance, a Second Grade Middle Rank Kui Water Transformation Great Array, four Second Grade Middle Rank Law Artifact, and two Second Rank Low Grade Defensive Law Artifact.

The array formation and puppet inheritance were obtained from that "dried corpse".

Both Ling Pengyun and Ling Yunhong valued the inheritance of the formation and the puppet.

This is because the Second Grade Middle Rank Array Formation inheritance originated from the Boundless Sea Region Cultivation World, and it records several second-tier arrays that were not found in the Ling Clan's array inheritance.

That puppetry technique was something the Ling Clan had not mastered.

The Kui Water Transformation Great Array was dismantled from the dried corpse's cave abode. Of the other four Second Grade Middle Rank- Second Grade Middle Rank magic Law Artifact, two were Law Artifact from the dried corpse.

The other two Second Grade Middle Rank Law Artifact and two Second Rank Low Grade defensive magic Law Artifact were all obtained from that Middle-Stage Foundation Establishment Body Cultivator.

The long sword magic Law Artifact previously held by the Middle-Stage Foundation Establishment cultivator in black was also among them.

In addition, Ling Pengyun also found a travelogue inside the mummified corpse 'Storage Bag.

The contents of this travelogue are the life story of that mummified corpse.

The mummified corpse, whose Daoist name was "Qian Yuan," was born into a Aristocratic Clan Daoist practitioners. Unfortunately, his Lineage suffered heavy casualties due to a sea Demon Beast Lineage guarding an island.

Subsequently, due to the machinations of other Lineage in the vicinity, many of the clan Lineage died or were injured.

Decades have passed, and he is now the only one left in his Lineage. Even the Lineage's Spirit Vein have been seized, and he has become the head of this deserted Lineage.

"Old Taoist Qian Yuan" was furious about this, but he had no power to take revenge, so he could only swallow his anger and change his name to "Old Taoist Qian Yuan".

The array formation manual he carried, as well as the second -Second Grade Middle Rank Kui Water Transformation Great Array, were both Lineage possessions.

The puppetry inheritance was something he obtained by chance.

Another noteworthy point is that, in addition to being the head of a clan, he is also a disciple of the Array Hall of the Wood Origin Immortal Sect, the owner of the nearby Wrathful Whale Marketplace.

During a trip with his fellow disciples to slay Demon Beast, they found a Second Rank Spirit Pool that could produce spiritual water. However, he was ambushed and seriously injured by his fellow disciple who wanted to monopolize the spirit pool.

Because that fellow disciple was powerful and a disciple of Golden Core True Person, Qian Yuan dared not return to the sect to report, lest he be unknowingly killed by that "black-hearted" fellow disciple using his power.

Under such circumstances, Qian Yuan, who dared not return to his sect and had nowhere to go, found a First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Vein in the Boundless Demon Sea, where he lingered for a few years before his lifespan was exhausted and he died.

The fellow disciple who ambushed the Old Taoist Qian Yuan was none other than Zhang Qingxuan, the renowned head of the "Marketplace Enforcement Hall" in the Wrathful Whale Marketplace.

The reason Old Taoist Qian Yuan told these things was that he intended for the cultivators who had received his inheritance to check if any of the "Han Surname mortals under his Lineage's command on " Turtle Cloud Island " in the Wood Origin Sea Region possessed Spirit Root.

If there is someone with Spirit Root, lend them a hand and help them become a cultivator to settle this karmic debt.

The Old Taoist Qian Yuan surnamed Qian, and his clansmen were also originally surnamed Qian. However, after his Lineage was wiped out, he was afraid that his direct descendants would be retaliated against, so he ordered all his direct descendants to change their surnames.

As for seeking revenge against Zhang Qingxuan, the Old Taoist Qian Yuan had long since given up on that matter.

It wasn't that he didn't want to, but rather that the Old Taoist Qian Yuan understood that a mere incomplete Second Grade Middle Rank Array Formation and a complete first-tier puppet inheritance were simply not enough to make a cultivator seek revenge for him and provoke Zhang Qingxuan, a disciple at the Golden Core Realm, for the sake of karma.

The location of the spirit pool that Old Taoist Qian Yuan and Zhang Qing found together was also recorded there.

"This Old Taoist Qian Yuan has truly had a rough life."

"That invaluable Second Rank Spirit Pool, enough to support the prosperity of a Foundation Establishment Family, has been occupied by Zhang Qingxuan, who is at the Pseudo-Core Realm. We have no strength to seize it and can only miss this fortuitous opportunity."

"However, both the second-tier array formation inheritance and the puppet inheritance are useful to my Ling Clan. Third Grandfather, our Ling Clan seized the inheritance of the Old Taoist Qian Yuan Lineage, and this karmic debt should indeed be settled."

"After our trip to the Dragon Scale Sea Region, let's go together to Turtle Cloud Island, which Old Taoist Qian Yuan mentioned."

Ling Pengyun sighed deeply and remarked.

"I'll listen to you." Ling Yunhong agreed with Ling Pengyun's approach.

The concept of cause and effect is extremely vague, but cultivators generally have a strong belief in it.

This is because, according to legend, if cause and effect become too intertwined, it will hinder a cultivator's Dao Path.

More than four hundred days later.

Ling Pengyun and Ling Yunhong, riding on the Black Armored Turtle whose concealment technique had reached an extremely high level, traversed more than 20 million miles across the Boundless Demon Sea and finally entered the Dragon Scale Shark Sea Region.

Then, Ling Yunhong took out a blue token engraved with the words "Bishui" from his pocket and infused it with spiritual power.

The Azure Water Token flashed with spiritual light and floated forward in the void on its own.

"Peng Yun, have the Black Armored Turtle follow this token."

Ling Yunhong greeted Ling Pengyun.

Ling Pengyun nodded slightly and informed the Black Armored Turtle of the matter.
