Cai Lei's Backup Plan (That's All for Today)

The True Monarch Seven Stars of the Lingxu Realm Lower Realm mortal world to apprehend Cai Lei, Cai Lei was rumored to have absconded with a certain treasure by taking advantage of his position.

Shen Long never expected that it was Cai Lei's divided soul that possessed the descendant of the True Monarch Thousand Mechanisms.

"That's right, this is Cai Lei's backup plan. His split soul has mastered a Divine Soul Secret Technique. Unless someone is a whole realm higher than you, it's very difficult to guard against being possessed."

"That's what the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove said."

How many backup plans does Cai Lei have?

Shen Long pressed for an answer.

"I don't know. It's just a split soul. According to the plan, after possessing another body, it will recover its cultivation as soon as possible and return to the Lingxu Realm."

"That's what the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove said."

The main soul and the divided soul differ by only one word, yet they are completely different. What the main soul knows, the divided soul may not know, and what the divided soul knows, the main soul definitely knows.

"It seems Cai Lei had many backup plans. No wonder when the True Monarch Seven Stars Lower Realm to capture Cai Lei, Cai Lei self-destructed. He probably knew he would be captured all along."

Shen Long analyzed, then, remembering something, pressed, "He mentioned the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove before, does he know you?"

"He's the one who brought down the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove's Spirit Beast Egg. As for how Cai Lei obtained it, that's unclear."

"That's what the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove said."

"In other words, Cai Lei fled to the Lower Realm, knowing he would be caught, so he made preparations in advance, dispersing some of his valuables and placing them in different places, leaving behind a fragment of his soul. He then self-destructed in front of the True Monarch Seven Stars, thus cutting off the trail. Outsiders could at most find Cai Lei."

Shen Long guessed.

"That should be it. He exposed himself in order to cut off the trail."

"That's what the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove said."

Shen Long looked approving and said, "This person is brave and resourceful, a ruthless character. His original body died and his soul dissipated, but he wants to use his divided soul to make a comeback. I wonder if he can succeed."

He took out a Cyan Storage Bracelet, flicked his sleeve, and a cyan glow swept across, revealing a large pile of things on the ground, mostly refining materials, including more than three million Spirit Stone.

He found a ten-thousand-year-old Dragon Transformation Grass and some other spirit medicine in an exquisite blue Jade Box, all of which were over three thousand years old.

There are more than thirty kinds of materials for refining Spirit Treasure, and there are also many strange and unusual things that Shen Long does not recognize at all.

"That cyan jade stone records the language and script of the Lingxu Realm; placing it between the eyebrows allows one to automatically master it."

"That's what the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove said."

Shen Long picked up a palm-sized piece of blue jade, which felt very light, and placed it between his eyebrows.

The cyan jade stone emitted a soft cyan light, and a surge of information entered Shen Long's sea of consciousness.

"The Lingxu Realm, the Qingxuan Prefecture Realm Cluster!"

Shen Long muttered to himself, a thoughtful expression on his face.

There were more than ten Jade Slip. Shen Long picked up a Cyan Jade Slip and immersed his Divine Sense into it.

Before long, he finished reading all the contents of the Jade Slip.

The Jade Slip mainly records the situation of the Lingxu Realm. The Qingxuan Prefecture Realm Cluster has tens of thousands of realms, and the Lingxu Realm is only one of them.

One blue Jade Slip recorded the products, forces, and races of the Lingxu Realm, while another Cyan Jade Slip recorded the situation of the Green Lotus Continent.

The contents of these dozen or so Jade Slip helped Shen Long understand the Lingxu Realm and the Green Lotus Continent, but they were of no real help to him unless he was able to ascend to the Lingxu Realm in the future.

Shen Long picked up the things on the ground and said, "Cai Lei played this move brilliantly. Apart from himself, no one knows how many backup plans he has."

"If his other fragments of his soul regained their former cultivation levels, they would definitely see their master as an enemy if they saw me."

"That's what the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove said."

Shen Long also thought of this. He had no idea about the situation of Cai Lei's other divided souls. If Cai Lei's divided souls recovered their cultivation and discovered the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove, they would definitely regard Shen Long as an enemy.

Shen Long flicked his sleeve, and five Spirit Treasure appeared on the ground: the Azure Green Lotus Lamp, the Mountain Suppressing Nail, the Thousand Wood Ruler, the Cyan Toad Flag, and the Sea Suppressing Staff.

The Green Lotus Lamp, the Mountain Suppressing Nail, and the Thousand Wood Ruler originated from Cai Lei's divided soul, while the Cyan Toad Flag and the Sea Suppressing Staff came from the descendants of the True Monarch Thousand Mechanisms.

The Green Lotus Lamp is an auxiliary Spirit Treasure that can nourish the soul and can be used to cultivate a divided soul.

The Mountain Suppressing Nail is an earth-attribute Spirit Treasure, the Thousand Wood Ruler is a wood-attribute Spirit Treasure, the Cyan Toad Flag is a concealment Spirit Treasure, and the Sea Suppressing Staff is a heavy-duty Spirit Treasure.

Shen Long refined the five Spirit Treasure, and after the refinement was complete, he released the Spirit-Tracking Beast.

The Spirit-Tracking Beast let out a low growl, seemingly seeking praise.

"Thanks to you this time, otherwise I would never have been able to discover the Nine-Year-Old Rogue Cultivator and the True Monarch Thousand Mechanisms."

Shen Long praised it, patted the Spirit-Tracking Beast's head, took out a white Demon Core, and fed it to the Spirit-Tracking Beast.

The depths of Immortal Fallen Island severely restrict the use of Divine Sense. Shen Long's Divine Sense could not extend more than three hundred miles, yet the Spirit-Tracking Beast could still sense the fluctuations of the Divine Sense of familiar people.

Considering that True Monarch Thousand Mechanisms and the Nine-Year-Old Rogue Cultivator might be guarding outside Immortal Fallen Island, and given the Large Beast Tide breaking out in the Outer Sea, Shen Long does not plan to leave Immortal Fallen Island for the time being.

He retrieved the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove into his Spirit Beast Bracelet, entered the Ten Thousand Beast Tower, and arrived at the fourth floor.

With a flick of his wrist, Shen Long sent the Ice Flood Dragon, the Golden-Winged Wind Peng, and the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove flying out of the Spirit Beast Bracelet.

With a flick of his sleeve, a White Flood Dragon White Flood Dragon appeared, then died.

He said to the Ice Flood Dragon, "Eat! Enjoy your meal."

The Ice Flood Dragon let out a joyful roar, spewing out a white light that enveloped the White Flood Dragon before swallowing it whole.

Shen Long fed the Golden-Winged Wind Peng and the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove a fourth-tier Demon Core and Millennial Spirit Herb, respectively, and they each returned to their nests to rest.

After the Ice Flood Dragon finishes eating the corpses of the three fourth-tier Flood Dragon, Shen Long will feed it the Dragon Transformation Grass. With the addition of the ten-thousand-year-old Seven Rosy Jade Lotus, the Ice Flood Dragon's chances of mutation should increase significantly.

Shen Long exited the Ten Thousand Beast Tower, sat cross-legged, took out a Blood Flood Dragon Pill, swallowed it, and began to cultivate.

Before long, a Red Rosy Clouds appeared on his body, and a large number of Red Dragon Scales grew.

······

In Star-Moon Marketplace, there is a Quiet Manor.

Chu Buyu sat beside Zhang Qing stone table, while Wang Feng reported the situation to Chu Buyu.

"What! Fellow Daoist Shen is being chased by two fourth-tier Flood Dragon?"

Chu Buyu frowned and said.

"Yes! Senior Shen killed a fourth-tier Ice Flood Dragon, which angered many people. He was then hunted down by the Thunder Flood Dragon Wind Flood Dragon, and his whereabouts are unknown."

Wang Feng reported that many people witnessed this.

Late Fourth Rank Thunder Flood Dragon is not to be trifled with; it can withstand Spirit Treasure.

"Keep an eye on Fellow Daoist Shen's situation, and notify me immediately if you hear any news about him."

Chu Buyu gave the instructions.

"Yes, Master Aunt Chu."

Wang Feng agreed.

"By the way, what about that Mutated Spirit Beast that destroyed the Golden Flood Dragon Marketplace? Any news?"

Chu Buyu asked.

If it weren't for a mutated Fourth-Rank Spirit Beast appearing in the beast tide, weakening the power of the Formation, the Formation would not have been broken.

Chu Buyu was very interested in the beast's third eye; if it could be refined into Spirit Treasure, breaking the formation would be much easier.

"Nothing yet. We've already sent people to keep an eye out. If there's any news, this disciple will report immediately."

Wang Feng said.

Chu Buyu nodded, gave a few instructions, and then dismissed Wang Feng.
