Chapter Twenty-Five Years
After Yunhua had everything prepared, she began her secluded cultivation. As for Xin Ruyin, although she was also diligently cultivating, she was more engrossed in the study of formations.
Xin Ruyin's skill in formations is not as good as Yun Hua's, which makes her somewhat disappointed. Fortunately, she quickly adjusted and devoted herself to the study of formations.
When Yunhua arrived at the Chaotic Star Sea, he had stockpiled a large amount of supplies and urgently needed to convert these cultivation supplies into cultivation power. Therefore, he entrusted the affairs on the island to Xin Ruyin and Xiaomei.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Yunhua has been in seclusion for twenty-five years, and his cultivation has broken through to the mid-stage of Core Formation.
Having fully mastered the pill refining method of the Chaotic Star Sea, Yunhua, unable to bear the slow cultivation speed that felt like a tractor, decided to leave seclusion as the previously prepared cultivation resources were completely exhausted.
Over the past twenty-five years, not only has Yunhua's cultivation made a breakthrough, but Xin Ruyin has also broken through to the late Foundation Establishment stage with the accumulation of a large amount of cultivation resources, and Xiaomei has also successfully broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage. Yunhua rewarded them with many top-level magic artifacts that he had previously refined and one low-level magic treasure for each of them.
As for the insects Yunhua raised, the Blood Jade Spider laid three eggs, all of which hatched successfully. In twenty-five years, the Blood Jade Spider became a level six demon beast, and even the three little white jade spiders became level two demon beasts.
Yunhua's gold-devouring insects have multiplied to several hundred, and a second color has appeared on their bodies. Each one is as strong as a level two demon beast. If several hundred of them attack together, even a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator would have to flee for their life.
Over the past twenty-five years, Yunhua has also successfully localized and simplified some of the supernatural powers and spells from the world of Shrouding the Heavens. For example, the Chaos Annihilation Sword Qi that Yunhua often uses has been simplified into Annihilation Strike, with a power roughly equivalent to a Nascent Soul stage spell.
There's also the Chaos Emperor Seal, which has been simplified to the Spirit Summoning Seal. That's right, it's the ultimate technique of Wang Ermazi from the Xian Ni world. Its power is also considerable. In its early stages, it has the power of a late-stage Core Formation magic weapon. If the Spirit Summoning Seal is allowed to grow stronger, even a Nascent Soul cultivator would be killed.
Yunhua also reforged the Panlong Spear and the Xuanhuo Mirror, combining the two to create a dragon spear with power comparable to a Nascent Soul stage magic weapon.
This spear can not only be absorbed and nurtured within the body, but it can also unleash the combined power of the two, directly merging with the Yunhua spear to transform into a physical Eight Desolate Fire Dragon, with each strike carrying the power of the Eight Desolate Dragon Fire.
Yunhua plans to go out to hunt demons. He doesn't lack anything else at the moment, except for a large number of demon cores for alchemy.
The next day, Yunhua prepared to leave.
"Brother Yun, be careful. I'll be waiting for you to come home." Xin Ruyin had been questioning and opposing Yun Hua's decision, so she could only silently pray for Yun Hua.
"I'll be careful. While I'm away, activate the great formation and protect yourself. If anything happens, contact me through the communication jade talisman, and I'll be back soon," Yunhua said, hugging Xin Ruyin.
Xin Ruyin nestled in Yun Hua's arms and said, "Okay, Brother Yun, I'll miss you."
Yunhua flew all the way and soon arrived at Kuixing Island, preparing to use the Star Palace's teleportation array to go to the outer sea.
Outside Kui Xing Island, Yun Hua's incredibly powerful Core Formation stage aura kept everyone around him at bay. Cultivators along the way gave way, and Yun Hua soon arrived at Kui Xing City.
Calculate the time...
Han Li should come out of seclusion soon!
……
Kui Xing City, Tian Du Street.
Three men and two women walked together.
The two women were beautiful and charming, and dressed in an extremely daring manner.
Her clothes were simple, revealing not only her fair arms and smooth calves, but also her bare feet, showing no shoes or socks.
What is even more eye-catching is that on the white wrists and foreheads of the two women, there are three delicate and glowing gold rings, one large and two small, which add a different kind of hot style to them.
The three men, on the other hand, had much more ordinary appearances; one of them even had a face full of pockmarks, making him look somewhat ugly.
These five people were all cultivators at around the tenth level of the Qi Refining stage, but they didn't seem to be visiting the largest city on Kui Xing Island for the first time.
They strolled around very familiarly, but anyone could see at a glance the little schemes the three male cultivators had in mind, circling around the two women.
The two women appeared extremely close, and although they smiled at the three of them, there was helplessness in their eyes.
They naturally understood this, and some even harbored the desire to find unmarried male cultivators to form dual cultivation partnerships.
However, the unmarried male cultivators that the two sisters wanted to find were those with profound cultivation.
Only in this way can two people from small sects, with average talent and mediocre cultivation techniques, have the possibility of reaching the Foundation Establishment stage.
“Junior sister, if we can’t find her in Kui Xing City, let’s leave Kui Xing Island and give it a try.”
"Senior Sister, isn't this too risky? We still have the protection of our sect on Kui Xing Island. If we leave..."
"There's nothing we can do about it. Kui Xing Island is quite remote, and there are very few suitable male cultivators to find."
"That's true, I'm just worried about encountering bad people when I'm out there."
The two sisters used a secret technique to communicate with each other.
Suddenly, a commotion erupted around them!
The two sisters stopped and, like the other cultivators around them, looked behind them.
It turned out that he was frightened by Yun Hua's pressure as a Core Formation cultivator.
The two sisters' eyes lit up when they saw the figure.
They quickly exchanged a glance. Perfect!
Isn't this the male cultivator that the two sisters have always dreamed of being their other half?
His cultivation was profound, and he was young and handsome! However... his cultivation was too high. Core Formation stage!
The two sisters, who were usually bold and unrestrained, suddenly felt somewhat inferior and hesitant upon seeing the young man in white robes.
Although they were somewhat attractive, the two were also aware of their own limitations.
Aside from having some good looks, she has absolutely nothing to offer in terms of talent or background. And for high-level cultivators, looks are the most worthless thing!
How can I get close to this young Core Formation cultivator?
The two sisters could only watch helplessly as the other walked away.
Yunhua had just sent a message to Han Li and discovered that Han Li was also in Kuixing City, so she decided to go and meet him.
"Senior, where are you headed? My junior sister and I grew up on Kui Xing Island and can show you the way," Yuan Yao and Yan Li couldn't help but step forward to ask.
"I can hardly be considered a senior; I'm not even fifty years old yet." Yunhua turned to look at the two elegant women.
'Hmm, forty-nine years old, not quite fifty either,' Yunhua thought to herself.
Yuan Yao and Yan Li were speechless after Yun Hua's words.
"You are Yuan Yao and Yan Li, right?" Yun Hua asked, but she was quite certain.
"Do you know us, senior?"
"Heh, I've only heard of it. Yuan Yao's physique is very suitable for ghost cultivation techniques or yin attribute techniques." Yun Hua had seen the aid and naturally knew about Yan Li and Yuan Yao.
"Could you elaborate, senior?"
"Figure it out yourself. Believe it or not, goodbye." Yunhua prepared to go to the Six-Linked Palace to find Han Li.
“Senior, my junior sister and I are willing to serve you. Please take us in,” Yuan Yao and Yan Li said with determination.
"I have other things to do. I live on Xiaohuan Island. This is your entry token. You can go or not. If you go, I can take Yuan Yao as my disciple. As for Yan Li, she can be a nominal disciple."
Yuan Yao looked at the token, a top-tier magical artifact, in her hand, and then at Yan Li.
"Senior sister, should we go? I don't think this senior is a bad person."
Yanli bit her lip lightly, thought for a moment, and then said.
"Let's go check out Xiao Huan Island first." The two then left Kui Xing Island and headed for Xiao Huan Island.
Before long, the two arrived outside Xiaohuan Island. Looking at the large array that covered the entire island, they were somewhat amazed and marveled at Yunhua's wealth and power.
The two holding the tokens walked into the formation and looked at Xiao Mei who came to greet them. Although she was dressed as a maid, her appearance was only slightly inferior to the two of them, but she was indeed a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
The two men reaffirmed their resolve; the maids were all at the Foundation Establishment stage, let alone the men who would be taken as their disciples.
"You two young ladies must be Yuan Yao and Yan Li. Miss sent me to greet you. Please come with me, Miss wants to see you."
As the two followed Xiaomei toward the cave, the various centuries-old medicinal herbs in the surrounding fields dazzled them.
"You must be Yuan Yao and Yan Li. Your husband has already told me about your situation. You can consider staying here for now." Xin Ruyin sat at a low table, holding a book on array formations in her hand, looking at the two pretty women in front of her.
"My senior sister and I are willing. We have met Master's wife." The two bowed to Xin Ruyin.
"Alright, this is the Yin-attribute cultivation technique my husband created for me, the Nine Yin Manual, and my husband's main cultivation technique, the Qi Body Source Flow, both of which can be cultivated to the late Nascent Soul stage."
"The Qi Body Source Flow is a body cultivation technique that doesn't require spiritual roots. You can choose for yourselves. Xiaomei, take them to their rooms and give them some cultivation resources."
Clearly, Yuan Yao chose the Nine Yin Manual, while Yan Li chose the Qi Source Flow.
The two were somewhat surprised when they saw the cultivation resources that Xiaomei had brought.
First, there were a large number of Qi Refining stage pills, some familiar and some unfamiliar. Second, there were top-tier magic weapons that could arm them to the teeth. Keep in mind that the two, only at the eighth level of Qi Refining, possessed only a high-grade magic weapon at best.
Chapter Thirty: Reunion with Han Li and the Infant Carp Beast
After bidding farewell to Yuan Yao and Yan Li, Yun Hua entered the Six-Linked Palace.
"Your presence, senior, brings great honor to our humble abode, the Six-Linked Hall." A middle-aged man with a simple appearance and a long beard hurried over and bowed to Yunhua.
"It's been twenty-five years. How have you been, Deputy Shopkeeper Zhang?" Yunhua said, looking at Zhang Zhe, whom she had met at Yuhuanju twenty-five years ago.
Zhang Zhe was stunned for a moment before daring to look up and examine the scene closely.
He blinked, a memory surfacing deep within his mind, and his expression instantly changed: "Senior... it's you?!"
Zhang Zhe shouted unexpectedly.
He never imagined that, twenty-five years later, he would see Yunhua again.
Looking at Yun Hua, whose demeanor remained unchanged, and whose spiritual pressure was even stronger...
Zhang Zhe looked on with envy, then bowed respectfully, saying, "I never expected that you would remember me, senior. It is truly an honor!"
"If you need anything, please don't hesitate to ask. The Sixth Prince and I will do our best to meet your needs!"
Yunhua nodded in satisfaction at Zhang Zhe's attitude.
Zhang Zhe quickly invited Yunhua to a private room and ordered tea to be served.
"I'm here to see Li Feiyu, Fellow Daoist Li. He said he was invited by you to hunt the Infant Carp Beast." Han Li started to persecute Li Feiyu again.
"Yes, Fellow Daoist Li and the other invited fellow Daoists are upstairs discussing the matter of hunting the Infant Carp Beast."
"I have unexpectedly discovered a level six Infant Carp Beast and wish to obtain its demon core. Therefore, I would like to request some outside help to eliminate this scoundrel!"
"I wonder if we could invite you, senior? You don't need to take action; just stay here and keep this beast from escaping."
As Zhang Zhe began to speak, he felt somewhat uneasy, his whole body pounding with anxiety.
In order to gain merit, they have invited several cultivators at the Pseudo-Core stage to kill this fiend.
Furthermore, the Six-Linked Palace also dispatched two elders, Miao and Gu, to cooperate with the Primordial Treasure 'Gan Tian Ge'.
However, even so, it's still not enough to guarantee safety.
He wanted to take this opportunity to see if he could persuade Yunhua to help.
"Okay, I need a large quantity of level six demon beast cores."
"Senior, our Six-Linked Palace currently only has four demon cores. Is that alright?" Zhang Zhe said cautiously.
“Okay, when do we set off? Give me the demon core first, I still need to hunt demons in the outer sea. I won’t be back to Kui Xing Island for a while.”
After Yunhua had formed four level-six demon cores, she saw Han Li come downstairs.
"Brother Li, it's been a long time. You've actually reached the Pseudo-Core Formation realm." Yunhua greeted Han Li.
"Brother Yun, I hope you will take good care of me during this demon-hunting operation." Han Li had no choice but to participate in this demon-hunting operation in order to obtain the Dust-Reducing Pill and the Heavenly Fire Liquid.
Kuixing Island Port.
On the deck of an enormous ship stood six pseudo-core cultivators.
The mortals and Captain Luo Zheng in the distance all watched with tense respect, not daring to approach, for fear of angering these six great immortal masters.
At the same time, I'm also a little curious...
Why aren't these six great immortal masters resting in that magnificent cabin?
But he ran up to the deck, as if he had come specifically to wait for someone!
Who exactly is this person, that even six Foundation Establishment Grandmasters dare not be negligent in the slightest?
"Feng Sanniang, is your Six-Linked Palace reliable or not?"
"It's been so long, why haven't you come yet?"
on the deck.
