Chapter 611: Chapter 617: Qinggui Chapter 611: Chapter 617: Qinggui “Between you and , saying thank you is just too formal!” Li Zhirui said with a smile.
Obtaining this fourth-order Qinggui, he also breathed a sigh of relief, because he had completed the task he set out with, and even ahead of schedule.
At the sa ti, Li Zhirui calculated in his heart the gains from this trip and suddenly found them to be extrely abundant!
He had not only helped Da Qing and Xiaoqing complete the major event of bloodline evolution, but also acquired quite a few Spiritual Objects, among which was the precious Deep Sea Mysterious Ice!
“Speaking of which, Deep Sea Mysterious Ice is a fourth-order Spiritual Object. Essentially, it’s a clump of extrely pure Ice Spiritual Energy, so could it be used as the Nascent Soul Spiritual Object for Zhiyue?”
Li Zhiyue happened to possess the Ice Spirit Root. Using high-order Spiritual Objects to attempt a major realm breakthrough was feasible but very risky. A slight mishap could lead to Spiritual Energy running amok, ridian breakage, or even worse, an exploding body.
This thought wasn’t sothing that Li Zhirui suddenly ca up with, but sothing he had considered before. After all, the risk was too great. If Li Zhiyue felt confident about breaking through to Nascent Soul, there would be no need for such extre asures.
Yet what Li Zhirui did not know was that Li Zhiyue, due to her exploration of the ruins, had lost a leg, severing her path of cultivation.
“Jiu, should we head back now?” Da Qing was already impatient to return to Wanxian Island to assimilate the Qinggui bloodline!
Li Zhirui was jolted from his reflections and nodded, saying, “Of course, after all, everything that needed to be done has been done.”
This ti upon returning, he likely would not leave his ho for a considerable ti.
Firstly, both Da Qing and Xiaoqing had to evolve their bloodline and enter seclusion to cultivate and strive for a breakthrough to the fourth-order. This would take at least a decade or two.
Secondly, Li Zhirui himself needed ti to settle his mind, to sunify his Spiritual Soul, and to grow and refine his Mana, laying a solid foundation for his breakthrough in the later stages of Nascent Soul.
“Let’s go!”
To leave the Outer Sea as quickly as possible, Li Zhirui sent Da Qing back into the spatial realm and hurried away using his Escape Technique.
Even though this approach was rather conspicuous and could draw the attention of many Water Devils, as long as he was fast enough, being spotted would not matter.
Despite having spent several years in the Outer Sea, Li Zhirui was not actually far from the Inner Sea. He had always flown northward, only traveling a thousand miles to the east, for he couldn’t risk venturing too deep into the territory of the Sea Clan.
It is known, the deeper one goes into the Outer Sea, the more powerful the Water Devils beco. If by chance he encountered a fifth-order Water Devil, Li Zhirui had no confidence that his tactics would escape detection.
If discovered, he would have no choice but to hide in the spatial realm. A mont’s hesitation might lead to his capture!
Such a life-threatening act was not one Li Zhirui dared to attempt. He had a clear understanding of his own strength.
His Escape Light sped along. The lower order Water Devils could only see a streak of light flashing quickly by, completely unaware that it was actually a Nascent Soul Cultivator. The fourth-order Water Devils did notice, but Li Zhirui was too fast for them to catch up.
—
At the very mont Li Zhirui killed that third-order Qinggui, sowhere deep beneath the sea, a massive Qinggui suddenly opened its eyes. Instantly, a primordial and wild aura burst forth tumultuously.
It was a fourth-order Water Devil at the peak of its power!
“Who is it! Who killed my child!”
The Qinggui roared to the heavens, its voice kicking up waves on the sea floor while spreading the ssage, “No matter who you are, I will have you pay blood for blood!”
“Who has provoked that old black turtle?”
The nearby fourth-order Water Devils beca aware and were rather shocked, then they entertained thoughts of watching a good show unfold.
They had never dared to provoke the old black turtle before, because the opponent had lived long enough!
Even though its original bloodline was rely fourth-order, after so many years, its bloodline had already evolved, and its mana had beco extrely profound. Its strength was terrifyingly mighty.
Moreover, they had also heard the news that this old black turtle was about to make a breakthrough to the fifth order, becoming the overlord of their part of the sea.
If it weren’t for their nurous subordinates, and the fact that the old turtle had not yet truly made a breakthrough, sucking up to it now would be too humiliating; they would have fawned over the old turtle a long ti ago.
Therefore, absolutely no one dared to provoke it, which was also why the third-order Qing turtle had no one guarding it. The high-order water devils nearby all knew its identity and didn’t dare to harbor any ideas against it, while the lower-order water devils were not its match.
And yet, it was killed by soone blind to the consequences!
Without thinking, one could know that the old black turtle would certainly turn the nearby seas upside down in a rage because it was its only offspring!
One should know, whether it was the human race or the Devil Race, or other creatures, the higher their cultivation, the poorer their ability to produce offspring!
However, generally speaking, the progeny of high-order creatures have much better aptitudes than the offspring of ordinary creatures, which can be considered a kind of alternative compensation.
Moreover, not only was the old black turtle of a high cultivation level, but its body was also too large, making it difficult to find a matching female giant turtle. In addition, its old age further reduced the likelihood of it reproducing.
With these three major difficulties, it had long given up the hope of having offspring with an evolved bloodline and decided to focus on cultivating its existing bloodline.
But unexpectedly, a delightful surprise surfaced!
More than a hundred years ago, a fourth-order Qing turtle with a body mutation had conceived its bloodline.
The hatched young turtle did not inherit its bloodline, as when Spirit Beasts of different orders mate, the offspring take after the lower order.
But in the depths of its bloodline, the descendant did possess a considerable amount of its blood, and not just a little!
This ant that the difficulty for its child to make a breakthrough to the fifth order was much less than when it had to do so back in the day.
Therefore, it received its parent’s utmost love and indulgence and was seen as the successor, and with two generations of fifth-order in their species, they could further raise their status within the Sea Clan.
But now, all that it had envisioned was ruined!
“Roar—”
Thinking of this, the old turtle’s heart was filled with unending rage, continuously roaring towards the sky to vent its fury, but such an act was of little help.
Once it cald down, it began to use the thods left on Xiaoqing to determine the murderer, but to no avail.
Then it employed divination to deduce the situation, only to find everything shrouded in a haze, utterly inscrutable.
At this point, the old turtle’s expression beca sowhat unsightly!
Because this result ant that either the killer was a Devil Beast or Cultivator of the sa order, or the opponent possessed a secret treasure that could conceal themselves, preventing others from deducing their traces.
“Anyone with clues, as long as they are true, I will surely offer a generous reward!” the old turtle used its vast mana to send its voice a hundred miles away.
In the end, having no choice, it could only seek the help of a large number of water devils; otherwise, it could only watch helplessly as the murderer road free beyond the reach of justice.
This was sothing it absolutely could not accept!
