’Truly a divine being.’
Yu Yuan said, shaking his head. He quickly started to wonder, what kind of venerable title should be given to Ji Yuan’s statue?
Simply stating the true na surely wouldn’t do.
As for a venerable title... Yu Yuan suddenly recalled a phrase he read in an ancient book when he was young.
’In the human race’s cultivation, there are those with great ability, called: Celestial Venerable.’
’In that case, let’s call him Ji Celestial Venerable.’
Yu Yuan looked in the direction of the door, mumbling to himself.
Now, after Ji Yuan left the rfolk territory, he slightly discerned the direction to take, flying straight towards the east.
As for recognizing the way, he had already traveled it once before.
And this ti, without the rfolk slowing him down, he moved much faster alone, easily avoiding any sea beasts that blocked his path.
In just over a day, Ji Yuan reached the ’underwater tunnel.’ Once he passed through it, he would arrive near the Immortal Sect.
But as he reached this point, Ji Yuan softly called out.
’Junior seeks an audience with the Holy Fish King.’
In just a mont, the tiny fish he saw last ti appeared in front of Ji Yuan again.
’You young one keep your word,’ the Holy Fish King chuckled, though it was unclear if it was a cold laugh.
Ji Yuan stood with folded hands, solemnly responding, ’The promise I made to senior is sothing I dare not forget for a mont.’
’When you reach the Jiyuan Continent, rember to deliver this item to that old serpent of the Profound Snake Mansion, also known as the Mansion Master, and ask if he has forgotten the oath of old.’
The Holy Fish King finished speaking with a cold laugh.
Then, a black light flashed and landed at Ji Yuan’s feet, transforming into a large gray-black scale.
A fish scale.
The Holy Fish King’s fish scale!
Ji Yuan understood almost instantly.
But instead of picking it up imdiately, he hesitated and said, ’I suppose senior can see that as a junior, my cultivation is low, and the Profound Snake Mansion is in the Land of the Far South, deep within the Ten Thousand Mountains. With my ager skills, I’m afraid it will be difficult for to ensure this is delivered.’
’No matter. If it can be delivered, it ans destiny doesn’t forbid it. If it can’t be delivered... then it’s the will of heaven.’
The Holy Fish King had said as much.
Ji Yuan naturally couldn’t refuse any longer.
He dared not use spiritual power, so he could only pick up the large fish scale with both hands.
The Holy Fish King sneered upon seeing this.
Its fin gently swayed, and the fish scale turned into a stream of light, flying into Ji Yuan’s storage bag.
He didn’t even have ti to react.
’This...’
Ji Yuan’s first thought was that with such skill, wouldn’t it be easy for the Holy Fish King to take sothing from his storage bag?
But on second thought, let alone taking sothing, even snatching the storage bag itself would be easy.
Moreover, why could the Holy Fish King use magic here without being attacked?
Could it be that at the Nascent Soul Stage, one is immune to the Water Blade?
That seems impossible.
’Just a little trick, nothing more. Go on now. If you succeed... perhaps that old serpent might give you so benefit. Anyway, I have nothing more for you.’
The voice grew distant, and by the ti Ji Yuan reacted, the Holy Fish King’s form had already vanished from sight.
He scanned the storage bag with divine sense and found no changes, only the addition of the scale.
Only then did he feel at ease to set off.
As for delivering the item to the Mansion Master of the Profound Snake Mansion, Ji Yuan felt that even if he had the ability, he couldn’t personally deliver it. It’s more likely he’d find an opportunity to have soone else send it.
To deliver it face-to-face... what if the Mansion Master targeted him for surviving in the Fallen Immortal Gully and captured him for intensive questioning? That would indeed be troubleso!
Who knows how long later.
When Ji Yuan erged from a cave, he looked up.
A golden array pressed down over the Endless Sea.
...
At the sa ti.
To the east of Coastal City on the Cangluo Continent, an enormous snow-white pillar of light descended from the sky, landing on that lone island in the sea.
A terrifying surge of spiritual qi spread out, but it was contained by the array surrounding the island, eventually dissipating into the air as gentle spiritual qi.
The cultivators in Coastal City had beco accustod to it.
Only so outsiders were still shocked... The cross-continental teleportation array was activated, and soone had co from the Jiyuan Continent.
At this mont, on the teleportation island, a young man with blood-red hair in a black robe landed and curiously looked around.
’So, this is the Cangluo Continent?’
No sooner had the young man spoken than a mocking voice sounded in his mind, ’Heh, what are you pretending for.’
Qiu Qianhai ignored it and followed other cultivators, queueing up before an early-stage Core Formation cultivator to register and record information.
This was a way to control the personnel traveling between the two continents, albeit not too effective, but still better than doing nothing.
’Na.’
Hearing the long-faced man ask the person in front of him for their na, Qiu Qianhai couldn’t help but smile.
Having used Lao Ji’s na to wreak havoc on the Jiyuan Continent, now returning to the Cangluo Continent, his own territory, he must enjoy being himself!
After all, relying on soone else’s na felt good, but it wasn’t as satisfying when it ca to killing!
So, when this long-faced man asked him, Qiu Qianhai proudly stated his na.
’Qiu—Qian—Hai!’
With these words, several nearby Fake Pill cultivators on patrol couldn’t help but turn their heads and stare intently at him.
As for the long-faced Core Formation cultivator, that was needless to say. For a mont, he even snapped the brush in his hand.
He frowned and after so contemplation, chose to remind Qiu Qianhai through a transmission.
’That na is inauspicious, fellow cultivator. You might want to choose another.’
Although Qiu Qianhai sensed sothing was off, years of wild living on the Jiyuan Continent had made him arrogant, so he shouted:
’I won’t change my na while moving or sitting still; it’s Qiu Qianhai, what’s the problem?!’
Just an early-stage Core Formation at most, he had slain at least eight or ten of these on the Jiyuan Continent.
What is there to be afraid of!
’Arrogant!’
This Core Formation cultivator from Blood Luo Mountain had never been publicly insulted by a Fake Pill cultivator, let alone in front of others.
Moreover, he was trying to kindly remind him.
Instead, he got scolded.
So, this person flipped his right hand and imdiately crushed dozens of communication talismans, all conveying one ssage.
That was...
’Qiu Qianhai is back!’
And he himself transford into escape light, flying into the air, grinning nacingly.
’You... dare call yourself Qiu Qianhai?’
