"Princess?"
Chen Shuangbai was taken aback at first, but quickly realized that it must be the offspring of the cave master of Precious Jade Cave.
This little demon was originally a maidservant serving the son of the cave master, but a wicked thought arose in her mind, and she stole her master's treasure. She fled, hoping to find a place to cultivate in peace and refine the treasure.
However, during its escape, it happened to be spotted by several cultivators from the Bai Household of Five Yellow Island. They mistook it for a clam spirit and thought it had already produced a pearl. Therefore, they wanted to take the pearl to offer to their young master in exchange for a reward.
That clam spirit is a fool.
Stealing one's master's most valuable possession is a capital offense.
"On the run, instead of trying to conceal his whereabouts, he revealed his presence and was hunted down as a wild demon bearing pearls. How utterly foolish!"
However, it was precisely because of this that the precious pearl was able to fall into his hands.
Although the [ Great Yin Dao Fruit ] in her sea of consciousness had no sentience, Chen Shuangbai could clearly feel a sense of joy at this moment.
It's obvious.
The Grand Yin energy contained within this pearl is likely of a quality and quantity far exceeding the sum of all his previous Water Moon Jade Crystal.
Chen Shuangbai asked a few more questions, and the clam spirit answered them all honestly.
After thoroughly investigating all the information he knew, Chen Shuangbai originally intended to raise his hand and unleash a Sword Qi to kill them all.
But the clam spirit hurriedly begged for mercy again, saying, "Immortal, please wait, please wait!"
The clam spirit's voice was filled with unprecedented urgency and fear; it was almost a scream.
"That little demon is still useful! Still useful!"
Chen Shuangbai remained silent, but a frost-blue Sword Qi appeared on his fingertips, as if he intended to kill it completely at this moment.
"Explain."
The clam spirit hesitated, attempting to bargain with Chen Shuangbai.
Chen Shuangbai glanced at it, shook his head slightly, raised his hand, and unleashed Sword Qi that sliced it inside and out, turning it into powder, which flowed into the sea with the stream.
Regardless of what other secrets this clam spirit knows, it is a treacherous demon, and keeping it alive would only bring great trouble.
Chen Shuangbai currently has no idea about the details of the Precious Jade Cave.
However, as one of the sixteen demon caves, its master is likely a powerful demon at the Golden Core level. Such an existence... it's best not to provoke Chen Shuangbai before he reaches the Golden Core.
After cleaning the clam essence, Chen Shuangbai prepared to leave.
Chen Shuangbai glanced at Gray Ball and Feiguang, who were watching the scene unfold, shook her head, and laughed, "I'm afraid I'll spoil your picnic."
Not long after.
A streak of bluish-white light flew up from the island, soared into the sky, and disappeared into the clouds.
Not long after, more than a dozen cultivators from the sea returned, and the one leading them was the bearded man.
However, this man was hunched over and followed obediently behind an old monk with white hair and beard.
Judging from his appearance, he should be the Foundation Establishment Ancestor of the Bai Household on Five Yellow Island.
However, the Bai Household patriarch released his Divine Sense and searched the island inside and out several times, but he did not see anyone. His expression turned gloomy.
" Bai Jin... are you perhaps trying to deceive me, your ancestor?"
Chen Shuangbai didn't care about any of that.
At this moment, he was heading towards the sea area where the Jade Wave Immortal Market was located, as marked on the sea map.
After leaving the remote and deserted island, Chen Shuangbai slowed down again.
This is both to enjoy the sea scenery and to hone Feiguang.
Feiguang the Snow-Plumed Eagle, the king of birds of the snow-capped mountains.
It was born with a knack for fighting, and now it has reached the Qi Refining Perfection. It is meant to fight those ferocious sea Demon Beast more often, and transform itself in the process.
Jade Wave Immortal Market is located in a sea area called " Star-Strewn Archipelago " in the southeastern offshore waters of Ning Country.
This sea area originally had only one large island, but the fact that the Immortal City is located here makes it extraordinary.
then.
By reclaiming land from the sea, setting up formations, releasing spiritual creatures, and building palaces, a barren land has been transformed into one of the largest, most reputable, and most prosperous trading places for cultivators near the Spirit Gauze Sea, attracting Liaowu Rogue Cultivator, sect disciples, and even overseas cultivators.
This day.
Chen Shuangbai stood on Flowing Cloud Flying Pouch, while Gray Ball stood on the edge, leaning down and blinking his two black bean-sized eyes as he watched the battle.
Below, in the sea, a black Shadow is swimming.
Although it was in the sea, the aura it exuded was fierce, clearly indicating that it was a sea beast in the Late Qi Refining Stage.
"Uh--!"
Feiguang let out a high-pitched cry, its snow-white feathers reflecting a cold light in the sunlight, its sharp eagle eyes fixed on the sea below.
The battles at sea these past few days have shed some of the comfort it had developed while being raised in the sect, giving it a more wild and fierce nature.
now.
It was about to prey on the sea monster below!
At a certain moment.
The sea monster launched a sudden attack.
With a deafening roar, the sea beast burst from the water, creating a cloud of blood and gore, leaping dozens of feet high and opening its gaping maw to bite at the hovering Feiguang.
Feiguang flapped its wings and suddenly soared into the air, dodging the bite. At the same time, dozens of translucent ice blades appeared around its body and whistled out, emitting a shrill cry as they slashed at the sea beast's exposed back.
The sea beast was a ferocious monster over five zhang long, with a mouth full of sharp teeth and bony spurs on its back.
The strange fish, its fierce eyes gleaming, showed no fear as it allowed the ice blades to fall upon it. A series of clanging sounds rang out as the ice blades were blocked by its steel-like black scales.
Chen Shuangbai wasn't surprised by this scene.
"It really is Iron-Spined Venomous Dragonfish."
Despite being called a dragonfish, it has nothing to do with real dragons or even flood dragons. The word "dragon" actually refers to the fact that this demonic fish is quite powerful among Qi Refining Stage Demon Beast.
This fish has a formidable defense, especially known for its iron-gray spine and the dense black scales covering its entire body. It also has venom glands in its mouth, which can spray corrosive venom.
It is considered a rather troublesome Late Qi Refining Stage Demon Beast in the sea.
The Feiguang's attack failed, but it was not discouraged; instead, it became even more aggressive.
It let out a clear whistle, flapped its wings, and its body suddenly became erratic, as if several identical Feiguang appeared at the same time, making the Iron-Spined Venomous Dragonfish somewhat unable to distinguish them.
This is the biggest difference between Feiguang and this wild Iron-Spined Venomous Dragonfish —Intelligence!
Feiguang's intelligence was not that of a normal Late Qi Refining Stage cultivator. On the other hand, the Iron-Spined Venomous Dragonfish was driven by bestial ignorance, with desires suppressing its rationality, and it had no idea what tactics were.
After just a few more moves, the Iron-Spined Venomous Dragonfish's stamina began to decline drastically, and its instincts drove it to try to escape into the deep sea.
But just as it was about to dive into the deep sea, it seemed to have crashed into a solid barrier made of gold and iron, leaving it dizzy and disoriented.
From the sky, the view below is completely visible.
A jade rope, radiant with divine light, emerged from Chen Shuangbai's waist, extending downwards into the sea. Stretching for several nautical miles, it connected end to end, forming a halo of light that sealed off the entire area where the Feiguang hunted.
It was the Low-Grade Spirit Artifact bestowed upon it by the sect.
[ The Turning Heart Ruyi Cord ].
