The First Nascent Soul Monster to Die

"A sea chart?"

Hua Yaoyue did not turn around. She replied by voice transmission, "That could be useful. Make me a copy when we get back."

"You got it."

His master needed it, so Ji Yuan had no reason to hesitate. After a moment's thought, he decided to tell her the rest.

"There's also an inherited Nascent Soul Cultivation Technique, but it's a Demonic Dao technique."

"That must be the one the Crossing-Sea Old Devil cultivated. What was it called? I can't remember. His strength was impressive, at any rate. You can pass it down when we get back and see whether there's anything worth learning from it."

"All right. Do you need it, Master?"

"What would I do with it? You think I'm like you, dreaming of becoming a Demonic Cultivator every day?"

Ji Yuan: "..."

Qiu Qianhai was the Demonic Cultivator. What did that have to do with Ji Yuan?

I've always loved playing the hero and saving people from fire and water, all right?

There was no point telling his master that. She would not understand... Ji Yuan went on, "Master, do you remember when I asked you about the Yin Ghost Sect?"

Hua Yaoyue seemed to think back for a moment before answering, "I do. What about it?"

"I found something connected to the Yin Ghost Sect among the Crossing-Sea Old Devil's possessions. It made me wonder whether the Yin Ghost Sect might be based on the Abyssal Continent. Could some of its inheritances have reached the Cangluo Continent because of an accident?"

It was a possibility Ji Yuan had considered before.

After all, a sect capable of passing down a Soul Cultivation Technique could hardly have been nameless.

Yet the Cangluo Continent's history had no record of any renowned sect called the Yin Ghost Sect.
