In a secluded Blue-tiled Courtyard, Shen Long sat beside Zhang Qing stone table, while Song He Shen Long beside him, talking to him.
"Senior Shen, you previously asked us to collect the Demon Core of the Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada. Here are two Third Rank- tier Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada Demon Core, along with some spirit medicine."
Song He took out a golden jade box and a Cyan Storage Bag and handed them to Shen Long.
Shen Long opened the jade box and saw two golden Demon Core inside. He scanned the Storage Bag with his Divine Sense and found more than a hundred spirit medicine, most of which were five or six hundred years spirit medicine.
"It's been decades. How have you five siblings been doing?"
Shen Long asked casually.
"Thanks to the healing pills given by Senior Shen, otherwise we would already be dead."
Song He his gratitude.
Before Shen Long left the North Sea Cultivation World, he sold Song He two bottles of Golden Ganoderma Pill. Over the years, Song He and his four companions had been hunting Demon Beast and had been seriously injured many times. After taking the Golden Ganoderma Pill and recuperating for a period of time, they recovered completely.
"By the way, do you have any news about fourth-tier Flood Dragon?"
Shen Long asked.
"No, but I do know the nest of a Fourth-Order Golden-Winged Thunder Eagle."
Song He said.
"Fourth-Order Golden-Winged Thunder Eagle!"
Shen Long's face showed an expression of interest.
During his last trip to the North Sea Cultivation World, Shen Long obtained a Third Rank Thunder-Absorbing Bead and a Third Rank Thunder-Guiding Bead. He then asked Chu Buyu to refine the Yin-Yang Thunder Beads, and this set of treasures provided Shen Long with considerable assistance.
"This is the nest of the Golden-Winged Thunder Eagle. I originally intended to sell the information to the Ximen Clan, but if Senior Shen is interested, I won't inform the Ximen Clan."
Song He took out a piece of Cyan Beast Hide and handed it to Shen Long.
The Cyan Beast Hide was a nautical chart, depicting many islands.
"How did you discover the Fourth-Order Golden-Winged Thunder Eagle? And how did you escape?"
Shen Long asked, puzzled.
"My five siblings and I were hunting Demon Beast in a certain sea area when we accidentally discovered a Golden-Winged Thunder Eagle fighting a Green Wind Falcon high in the sky. We immediately retreated. Later, we frequently spotted Golden-Winged Thunder Eagle near a Desolate Island island. We hid on the seabed, far from the Desolate Island, so the Golden-Winged Thunder Eagle didn't notice us."
Song He recounted the story in detail.
When Shen Long asked about the sea area where the Golden-Winged Thunder Eagle was spotted, Song He told him the truth.
"Here's a bottle of Water Moon Pill for you, consider it payment for the information I'm getting from you. Keep an eye out for news about fourth-tier Flood Dragon Essence Blood for me. If you find anything, I'll reward you handsomely."
Shen Long took out a blue porcelain bottle and handed it to Song He.
Song He and accepted the blue porcelain bottle with both hands.
After chatting for a few minutes, Shen Long said goodbye and left.
He strolled Marketplace and bought some spirit medicine, Demon Core, and metal ores.
Two hours later, it grew dark, and the number of pedestrians on the street increased rather than decreased.
Shen Long stood at the entrance of a two-story Golden Pavilion, with the three silver characters "Golden Cicada Pavilion" written on a gilded plaque.
Shen Long took out a golden square token, infused it with Law Power, and a golden light flew out, disappearing into the gate of the Golden Cicada Pavilion. The door opened automatically, and he walked in.
He took out a red Communication Disk, cast a spell, and instructed, "Young friend Sun, I am currently residing at the Golden Cicada Pavilion. Please come over here! I have some questions for you."
"Yes, Senior Shen."
Sun Yiyue's voice rang out.
Shen Long put away the Communication Disk, took out a golden jade box, opened the box, and found two golden Demon Core inside.
A golden Spirit Beast Bag at his waist swayed slightly. He gently patted the Spirit Beast Bag, and a cheerful cicada chirped as Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada flew out.
It emitted a cheerful cicada-like chirp, its eyes fixed on the Demon Core inside the jade box.
Shen Long picked up a Demon Core and fed it to the Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada. The Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada Cicada's wings fluttered gently, and its body shone with golden light.
He could sense that the Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada was very happy.
"Come back first!"
Shen Long patted the golden Spirit Beast Bag, Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada transformed into a golden light and flew back into the Spirit Beast Bag.
Not long after, a Sound Transmission Talisman flew in. Shen Long opened the door and saw Sun Yiyue, Song Sen, and Song Yan standing at the door.
Song Yan is currently in the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, which is quite good.
"Come in and talk!"
Shen Long instructed them to sit in the main seat.
Song Sen and the other two entered, Song Yan closed the door.
"Tell me about your situation over the years. Have you heard any valuable information?"
Shen Long gave the order.
Song Sen responded and gave a brief report on their situation over the years.
Thanks to the care of the Five Friends of Coral, the Sun Family Artifact Shop did very well, and no high-level cultivators bullied them. Their cultivation level was low, and they did not collect any high-value information.
"Senior Shen, I have obtained a Inheritance Dharma Bead by chance. It is said to contain the secrets of the Master Xuanguang's Ascension Cave Abode. I haven't had time to search for the treasure yet, so I would like to offer it to you."
Sun Yiyue took out a Blue Round Bead the size of a pigeon egg and handed it to Shen Long.
"The Inheritance Dharma Bead! Master Xuanguang? How did you obtain this Inheritance Dharma Bead?"
Shen Long's face showed an expression of interest.
"Master Xuanguang was a Core Formation Cultivator had been missing for many years. Yan'er found him inside a Demon Beast Demon Beast while hunting it at sea. She located the Ascension Cave Abode, but the restrictions were too strong, and she was unable to break them."
Sun Yiyue explained.
"After consulting numerous ancient texts, I discovered that the restriction is Third-Order Array, likely the final Ascension Cave Abode of Core Formation Cultivator."
Song Yan said.
After ascertaining the location of the Ascension Cave Abode, Shen Long took out a Golden Porcelain Bottle and handed it to Sun Yiyue, saying, "This is a bottle of Golden Core Jade Liquid. It's for you. Whether you can advance to the Golden Core Realm depends on yourself."
Foundation Establishment Cultivator have limited access to important information and find it difficult to acquire valuable items. Only if Song Yan Yanjin reaches the Golden Core Realm can he truly help Shen Long.
"Thank you very much, Senior Shen. Thank you very much, Senior Shen. Thank you very much Senior Shen."
Sun Yiyue repeatedly expressed her gratitude, her expression filled with emotion.
"I won't mistreat my own people. I'm collecting these things, so please keep an eye out for me and let me know immediately if you have any news. Cultivation is fundamental, and I hope you can all advance to the Golden Core Realm."
Shen Long took out a Cyan Jade Slip and handed it to Sun Yiyue.
Sun Yiyue readily agreed and put away the Cyan Jade Slip.
Shen Long gave them a few instructions and then dismissed them.
Once outside the Marketplace, Shen Long stomped his right foot on the ground, transforming into a streak of Escape Light through the air and disappeared into the horizon.
Seven days later, Shen Long appeared above a Desolate Island that was over a hundred miles in size, with lush vegetation.
According to Song Yan's directions, the Ascension Cave Abode of Master Xuanguang was located on this Desolate Island.
Shen Long opened his Divine Sense wide and carefully explored the Desolate Island. When his Divine Sense swept over the northwest corner of the island, he vaguely discovered a fluctuation of Law Power. It was extremely weak, and he would not have been able to detect it at all if his Divine Sense had not been so powerful.
He released the Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada, whose eyes emitted a dazzling golden light.
The Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada emitted a cheerful chirping sound, its wings fluttering gently.
There is indeed an Ancient Cultivator Cave Abode on the island, but it is unknown whose Ascension Cave Abode.
Shen Long summoned the Thunder-Guiding Bead and infused it with a spell. The Thunder-Guiding Bead emitted a dazzling silver light, and a Silver Thunder Pillar with a diameter of two zhang (approximately 6.6 meters) pierced the sky, heading straight for a steep peak.
With a deafening roar, a blinding bolt of silver lightning shot into the sky, the ground trembled slightly, and billowing dust rose into the air.
A massive, crimson blade of light swept in, plunging into the lightning and cleaving the peak in two. A thick, long crack appeared in the ground, and two Escape Light emerged from the dust and smoke.
Shen Long frowned and said, "Core Formation Cultivator, a trap!"
Two Core Formation Cultivator were hiding here, concealed within the Formation, and Shen Long hadn't noticed them.
The Escape Light vanished, revealing a portly old man in black robes and a burly man in gold robes. Both were at the Core Formation Mid Stage and looked flustered.
They set up an ambush here, intending to lure and Core Formation Cultivator, but unexpectedly, they encountered Nascent Soul Cultivator instead.
The two of them emitted a burst of spiritual light and flew off in different directions.
A sharp, piercing screech rang out, and the two slowed down.
A gust of wind blew by, and the Golden-Winged Wind Peng appeared, hovering above the old man in black robes.
Before the black-robed elder could dodge, the Golden-Winged Wind Peng flapped its wings lightly, sending out dozens of Giant Wind Blade that struck the elder's Body-Protecting Spirit Light Body-Protecting Spirit Light, causing it to dim instantly.
A pair of sharp claws slashed down, striking the black-robed elder's Body-Protecting Spirit Light Body-Protecting Spirit Light, easily piercing through it, and the claws went straight through the elder's head.
On the other side, the man in the golden robe was entangled by dense Cyan Vine. Before he could break free, a deafening dragon roar rang out, and a Red Sound Wave wave swept over him, instantly reaching him.
The Red Sound Wave struck the golden-robed man's Body-Protecting Spirit Light Body-Protecting Spirit Light, causing it to dim and shatter rapidly. He was sent flying backward, spitting out a mouthful of Essence Blood.
Shen Long flew over, and the man in the golden robe opened his mouth and spat out a golden throwing Flying Dagger that shimmered brightly, heading straight for Shen Long.
Shen Long's right hand emitted a bright red light, transforming into Red Dragon Claw, and charged forward.
The Red Dragon Claw collided with the Golden Flying Knife, producing a dull thud as metal struck metal, sending the Golden Flying Knife flying backward.
Just as the man in the golden robe was about to use another method, dense Cyan Vine wove together into a Cyan Giant Hand, grabbed the man's body, and delivered him to Shen Long.
Shen Long's left hand emitted a bright red light as he grabbed the man in the golden robe by the head and used his Soul Searching Technique.
The man in the gold shirt let out a scream, foamed at the mouth, and fainted.
"So it was a trap to lure and kill cultivators!"
Shen Long's face showed a look of sudden realization.
When Song Yan came to break the ban, the Evil Cultivator did not make a move, because they were playing the long game.
