Capítulo 1217: Chapter 1202: Hard Currency
In just three short hours, including that Chi Jiao, Ye Zhen perford a Soul Search on four people, which greatly impressed Bai Zizai, Sunx Ba, and others.
Within three hours, they only managed to Soul Search two people and were already feeling dizzy, but Ye Zhen still appeared energetic.
During these three hours, the three brothers, the Great Saint of Jinghai, the Great Sage of the Overturning Sea, and the Sea-Breaking Great Saint, had completely sealed off the Water Mansion in front of them, capturing over five thousand Water Demons.
The reason for so many captives was mainly that after these Water Demons discovered that the so-called Chi Jiao Xiansheng Water Lord was killed, they voluntarily knelt and surrendered. In just this short ti, they were already serving behind the three Great Saints of Jinghai.
This was even under the circumstances where this group had a heavy killing intent; otherwise, the number of Water Demon captives could have exceeded seven thousand.
According to the captives, the various Water Demons within this Water Mansion numbered in the tens of thousands, and more than a million Water Demons could be mobilized within the surrounding area of millions of miles.
The surrounding millions of miles of sea area was the jurisdiction of the so-called Chi Jiao Xiansheng Water Lord.
Ye Zhen was currently toying with a fist-sized azure Seal shaped like a double-horned Chi Jiao with fangs bared, with a playful smile at the corner of his mouth.
After performing the Soul Search, especially on that sinister-faced Rat Demon who previously advised Chi Jiao, Ye Zhen obtained so very useful and intriguing information.
The sea area where Ye Zhen and others were located was called the North Sea, also known as the North Nether Sea, located in the northern Primordial Continent, governed by the Dragon Lord of North Sea according to Chi Jiao.
Similarly, this Chi Jiao Xiansheng Water Lord was personally appointed by the so-called Dragon Lord of North Sea.
However, this appointnt only ca from the azure Seal in front of him.
The azure Seal in Ye Zhen’s hand was the authorization given personally by the Dragon Lord of North Sea to govern the water area within a radius of millions of miles.
In other words, whoever could obtain this Xiansheng Water Lord Command Seal and keep it would be the Xiansheng Water Lord of this radius of millions of miles, capable of commanding the Water Clan of the Xiansheng Water Mansion within that range.
Of course, this command is only nominal.
Whether the Water Clans within the Water Mansion’s jurisdiction would obey the commands of the Xiansheng Water Lord, or the holder, depends on their own ability and combat power.
If your ability and combat power are strong, the Water Clans and Demons within your Water Mansion range will naturally obey your command. If your own Cultivation is insufficient and cannot suppress other Grand Demons, they naturally won’t listen to your command.
For example, this Chi Jiao Xiansheng Water Lord, within this radius of millions of miles of water, is only ranked fourth in Cultivation. Within the jurisdiction of his Water Mansion, there are also three Grand Demon Cave Abodes.
These Grand Demons have hundreds of thousands of troops under their command and never follow the orders of the Xiansheng Water Lord.
In fact, ten years ago, the Green-Robed King, with a Cultivation of the Seventh Stage of Dao Entrance Realm, led hundreds of thousands of Water Demon soldiers to attack this Xiansheng Water Mansion, almost killing Chi Jiao and taking the Xiansheng Water Lord’s Seal.
Ultimately, the Xiansheng Water Lord managed to endure with the strong defense of this Xiansheng Water Mansion.
Over the past decade, as the subordinates gathered increased, life beca a bit easier.
Interestingly, according to a Tortoise Demon in the Xiansheng Water Mansion who has lived for over three thousand years, the Water Lord of this Xiansheng Water Mansion has changed sixteen tis within nearly a thousand years.
On average, a change occurs every sixty years.
As for the so-called Dragon Lord of North Sea, they wouldn’t care about the change of the Xiansheng Water Lord under their command.
The Dragon Lord of North Sea has no less than a hundred thousand Water Lords under them, so why would they care about this one.
Moreover, the Dragon Lord of North Sea is not the direct superior of the Xiansheng Water Lord. Under the Dragon Lord of North Sea, there are thirteen Dragon Kings, each managing their boundless North Sea waters.
This Xiansheng Water Mansion is under the jurisdiction of the Blue-scaled Dragon King. According to the longest-living Tortoise Demon, the last patrol by the Blue-scaled Dragon King was seventy years ago.
At that ti, because the previous Xiansheng Water Lord failed to deliver enough and tily tribute, they were executed publicly by the Blue-scaled Dragon King, who then casually appointed the strongest Chi Jiao among the forr subordinates as the successor.
Chi Jiao beca the successor at that ti.
In other words, as long as Ye Zhen obtains the Xiansheng Water Lord’s Seal, he becos the Water Lord of the Xiansheng Water Mansion in a certain sense, or if Ye Zhen gives this Seal to any one of the Sky Wing Three Saints, any one of them will beco the officially recognized Xiansheng Water Lord.
The prerequisite is to make sure the tribute, due every ten years, is delivered on ti and not get killed by other Grand Demons, then they can continue to be the Xiansheng Water Lord.
In other words, with the acquisition of the Xiansheng Water Lord’s Seal, Ye Zhen and his companions have beco the officially recognized Xiansheng Water Lords.
“Old Fourth, I finally understand why the Water Demons here are so easily defeated!
It’s the Enlightennt Demon Transformation Technique. Most of the Water Demons here have been forcefully enlightened to beco demons by this secret technique.
This Demon Transformation Technique rely changes their appearance to vaguely resemble a human form, with hardly any internal transformation. Moreover, after being enlightened, the Cultivation speed and efficiency are incredibly slow.
The Little Demons of the Establishnt Realm here have only advanced through slow accumulation over ti,” the returning Sea-Breaking Great Saint started to nag.
“If any one of my children ca, they could easily defeat four or five Little Demons of comparable Cultivation here!”
“Fourth Brother, I just discovered sothing very strange!” the Great Sage of the Overturning Sea suddenly said.
“What’s the matter?” Ye Zhen looked over.
“The concentration of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi here is about three tis that of our Heavenly Wing Island, but the purity of Water Spiritual Power is five tis ours.
Just by casually absorbing a wisp of it, you can almost directly convert it into cultivation without needing to refine it, much like using a Supre Spirit Crystal for cultivation.
In such conditions, the Water Demon’s cultivation speed here is several tis ours! But I just experinted and found out that a Water Demon with cultivation similar to ours, in one round of cultivation, absorbs Water Spiritual Power that only increases their cultivation by one-tenth of ours!
Moreover, I asked over a hundred Water Demons with different cultivation levels to cultivate, and compared this with my usual observations, and found it to be the sa.
Under the sa conditions, the amount of cultivation they increase in one round is mostly only one-tenth of ours, and at best, only one-fifth of the increase of our sons under command.”
Upon hearing this, the eyes of the Great Saint of Jinghai, the Sea-Breaking Great Saint, Ye Zhen, and Wu Shu lit up simultaneously. If this were true, it would an their cultivation speed would increase at least five-fold, or even ten-fold, upon arriving here!
A few breaths later, Ye Zhen, Jinghai, Sea-Breaking, Wu Shu, and others cultivating Water Spiritual Power opened their eyes simultaneously. Compared to the True Profound Continent, their cultivation progress here had indeed increased multiple tis.
“But that shouldn’t be. With the sa cultivation conditions, why does this happen?” The Great Saint of Jinghai frowned.
“I know the reason!” Old Zhu interjected enthusiastically.
“If you want to know, a thousand jin of roasted at plus a hundred jars of good……”
Before Zhu Hong could finish stating his conditions, Ye Zhen had already kicked him on the butt, “Hurry up and say it. If you talk any slower, you’ll be eating raw at for the next month!”
“Uh….” Zhu Hong wasn’t angry, but rather patted his butt with a smile, “Our ancestor told when he arrived that if we were to reach the Primordial Continent, our cultivation speed would be five to ten tis that of the ordinary Demon Race here!
The reason is simple.
It’s primarily because the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi in the True Profound Continent was really too scarce. Since childhood, our cultivation was like extracting Spiritual Power from Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, akin to extracting water from mist.
However, for the Demon Race on the Primordial Continent, their cultivation is like directly drawing water from a river.
The long-term cultivation by squeezing Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, when arriving at the Primordial Continent where Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi flows like a river, naturally allows our cultivation speed to be five to ten tis theirs.
Of course, as we live on the Primordial Continent for an extended period, this advantage will gradually diminish,” Zhu Hong explained.
With realization, everyone finally understood.
“I see, Old Fourth, if we bring so of the sons from the True Profound Continent here, I believe it won’t be long before we can sweep through this entire water region!” The Sea-Breaking Great Saint suddenly rubbed his hands eagerly.
“We’ll talk about this later!”
The Great Saint of Jinghai directly vetoed, “We haven’t yet established a foothold here. Bringing them over is asking for trouble if sothing goes wrong.” Upon hearing this, the Sea-Breaking Great Saint imdiately deflated like a punctured ball, becoming disheartened.
Suddenly, Ye Zhen raised the Seal of the Xiansheng Water Lord in his hand and waved it in front of everyone, “Who wants this thing?”
The identity of the Xiansheng Water Lord is equivalent to the Prefectural Governor within the states governed by the Human Clan of the Great Zhou Dynasty on the Primordial Continent. In terms of identity, it is considered prestigious.
However, Ye Zhen is not part of the Water Clan and has no intention of developing in this vast sea.
According to the inherited mory of the Earth Core Fire Commander, it is the vast and captivating Primordial Continent, teeming with heroes, that Ye Zhen aspires to.
Watching the Seal in Ye Zhen’s hand, Bai Zizai and Wu Shu’s eyes lit up simultaneously, yet they helplessly turned their heads away.
This item was too hot to handle. Although their cultivation was strong, in the sea, compared to the Sky Wing Three Saints, they were far inferior.
Not to ntion, the deep-sea water pressure could limit half of their combat power.
As for Sunx Ba, Zhu Hong, Xuan Hu, Hu Qingtong, and others, they didn’t even glance over. The ancestors of the Devil God Palace had already said that once they reached the Primordial Continent, the four of them had their own paths to follow.
The eyes of the Great Sage of Fug Hai and the Sea-Breaking Great Saint simultaneously turned to the Great Saint of Jinghai, the implication clear.
The Great Saint of Jinghai’s expression turned solemn. He nodded heavily, raised his hand, and grasped the Seal. The mont he infused it with a trace of Origin Essence Blood, the handle of the Seal transford into a ferocious giant whale.
“In that case, my brother and I will guard this Water Mansion, as it’s well-suited for our developnt here.” The Great Saint of Jinghai chuckled, “If any of you find difficulties on land, feel free to co here for refuge. We at Jinghai will always welco you!”
As soon as he said this, everyone spat in jest.
anwhile, Liao Feibai, who had been wandering in the Water Mansion and hadn’t appeared, suddenly showed up with a Pill Bottle, “Ye Zhen, guess what I found?”
“What?”
“Hard currency!”
“Another form of hard currency on the Primordial Continent besides Spirit Stones!”
