Desert Sea, Heavenly Phoenix Oasis.
A mighty river surged down from Sky Shadow Peak, winding toward the oasis.
As the sixth-stage spirit vein developed, Heavenly Phoenix Oasis grew even more expansive. Beyond its original boundaries, it had now linked up with several other oases, making its total area larger than several commanderies of the former Yan Kingdom combined.

This spirit lake was not the one the Ye Family had established before, but the newly created Heavenly Phoenix Lake. Rather than housing large water-attribute spirit beasts, it was used to raise spirit fish.
The entire spirit lake was divided into several zones.
The dozen or so cultivators had landed in the whisker carp zone, and each took out an enormous Sand Ginseng Scorpion.
As the Sand Ginseng Scorpions dropped into the water, numerous whisker carp bearing distinctive azure scales immediately appeared on the lake's surface.
