Tianhai Fairy Journey

Chapter 1362 Sincerity, Awakening

A corner of the central sea area of ​​the South Moon Sea.

Above the azure sea.

A massive, crescent-shaped spirit island sits between heaven and earth, surrounded by several other spirit islands of varying sizes.

Each spirit island reveals a completely different layout of pavilions and palaces.

Among them, the Central Half-Moon Spirit Island is particularly extraordinary.

The undulating spiritual veins lie like giant dragons within it.

Each sacred peak has its own unique charm, exuding a divine and beautiful aura.

The surging spiritual energy of heaven and earth continuously gathered into clouds of spiritual energy, which drifted above the spiritual island.

North of Ling Island.

Inside the grand hall atop the highest peak of a sacred mountain.

Mu Ziyu and four other Nascent Soul cultivators from the Thousand Waters Spirit Sect, including Lü Ziming, sat quietly among them.

"The latest battlefield situation in the Bianyu Sea area has arrived, and the situation is not optimistic!"

Lu Ziming continued with a grave expression, "Even with two late-stage Nascent Soul experts from the Desolate Ancestor Hall personally overseeing the situation, along with five other late-stage Nascent Soul experts like Ancestor Xu Hai, they still couldn't gain the upper hand!"

"Two more late-stage fourth-tier demon kings with ancient bloodlines have appeared within the Golden Demon Kingdom."

Upon hearing this, Zi Ling and the others also showed slight concern.

Although the Thousand Waters Spirit Sect has moved to the Central Sea Area, the entire sect is still very concerned about the calamity that is raging in the Eastern Sea Area.

Many sect disciples even look forward to returning to the Bianyu Sea.

Although the relocation of the sect forced the Thousand Waters Spirit Sect to avert that cataclysmic disaster, it also resulted in the complete loss of countless treasure lands and spiritual veins in the Bianyu Sea region, thus depriving the sect of its foundation for further growth.

Although the current temporary base is a decent place, it is far from enough for the future development and growth of the entire sect.

"I never imagined this great war would be even more terrifying than the last ten-year catastrophe!"

Mu Ziyu also shook her head.

Despite the fact that the three top powers in the Central Sea have publicly stated their positions, neither the Golden Demon Kingdom nor the Ghost King Sect has backed down in the slightest.

Over the past three years, they have continued to launch wave after wave of terrorist attacks.

Even the strength displayed by the Golden Demon Kingdom and the Ghost King Sect far surpasses that of the past.

As if she had thought of something, Mu Ziyu said softly, "My husband once said that during the last ten-year catastrophe, neither the Ghost King Sect nor the Golden Demon Kingdom used their full strength. Their purpose was only to test the ancestor behind the Ji family!"

"Now that the Ji family no longer exists, they have nothing left to fear."

Just then, Zi Ling spoke up, "Senior Sister, should we consider lowering some of the sect disciples' benefits?"

"The entire sect, from elders to disciples, is still being trained according to the old treatment, which is rapidly depleting the sect's accumulated resources. This is not conducive to the sect's future development!"

Zong Jia and Wu Ye nodded in agreement.

In the past, the Thousand Waters Spirit Sect controlled the core treasure land and spiritual veins of the entire Bianyu Sea, and its spiritual resources were inexhaustible. But now, the Thousand Waters Spirit Sect is like a rootless duckweed, constantly depleting the foundation it had accumulated.

Seeing the seriousness and worry on the four people's faces, Mu Ziyu chuckled and said, "No need to worry, and there's no need to make any changes!"

"The resources we've accumulated are sufficient to continue supporting the cultivation needs of the entire sect."

"Besides, isn't there the Daoyuan Chamber of Commerce?"

"Daoyuan Chamber of Commerce?"

Lu Ziming and the others looked puzzled.

They all knew that the Daoyuan Chamber of Commerce had a close relationship with that senior brother. Not only did they take the initiative to help the Qianshui Yuling Sect relocate, but they also spared no effort to find this precious land for him as a temporary residence.

However, this seems to have nothing to do with the resources needed for the future development of the Thousand Waters Spirit Sect.

"Now that things have come to this, I won't hide it from my junior brothers and sisters and my two nephews!"

Mu Ziyu smiled slightly and said, "The reason why Daoyuan Chamber of Commerce has such an attitude is mainly because my husband is one of the eight pavilion masters of Daoyuan Chamber of Commerce, and also the person in charge behind the scenes of Daoyuan Chamber of Commerce!"

"Pavilion Master?"

The four people, including Lü Ziming, looked shocked.

No one expected that the senior brother was already one of the controllers of the Daoyuan Chamber of Commerce.

No wonder the entire Daoyuan Chamber of Commerce went to such lengths to help when the clan relocated.

"If all else fails, the sect can integrate into the various forces of the Daoyuan Chamber of Commerce, similar to the three major families, and continue to develop by leveraging the influence of the Daoyuan Chamber of Commerce."

As she spoke, Mu Ziyu smiled again and said, "Taking advantage of this opportunity, I also have something wonderful to share with my junior brothers and sisters and my two nephews!"

Lu Ziming and the other three were all shocked.

"Senior Brother Li?"

Lu Ziming's voice even trembled slightly.

Now, everyone in the Thousand Waters Spirit Sect knows that Senior Brother Li is currently in seclusion, attempting to break through to the late Nascent Soul stage.

"Not bad!"

Mu Ziyu slowly stood up, her beautiful eyes revealing boundless pride.

"My husband recently sent me a message saying that he has successfully advanced in his cultivation and is currently consolidating his power. He will return to the sect soon!"

In an instant, Lu Ziming and the other three were stunned as if struck by lightning, and then their expressions became excited and they could not extricate themselves.

Although they all firmly believed in their hearts that their senior brother/ancestor could successfully break through to the late Nascent Soul stage.

But when the moment actually arrived, they were still somewhat incredulous.

too fast!
Everything happened so fast!
That senior brother is not even four hundred years old yet, but he has already become a powerful late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

"The Ancestor has successfully advanced!"

Zong Jia trembled with excitement: "Doesn't that mean that the sect has truly become a top-tier Nascent Soul power!"

"Yes!"

Mu Ziyu chuckled, "Qianshui Yuling is now a truly top-tier Nascent Soul power!"

"Do my junior brothers and sisters and my two nephews still need to worry about the resources for the future development of the sect?"

Zong Jia and Wu Ye exchanged a glance and shook their heads simultaneously.

It should be noted that before the Azure Profound Ancestor's advancement, he was already recognized as the strongest prodigy in the entire Southern Moon Sea, a top performer on the Earthly Fiend Ranking. Looking at the vast and endless world of the Star Sea, those who could compare to him were extremely rare.

Once such a being successfully promoted, how could ordinary late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators compare to him?

Not to mention, no one could match that ancestor's methods and schemes.

The fact that he was able to govern a region of the sea with his mid-Nascent Soul cultivation back then is enough to prove everything.

As long as that Qingxuan Ancestor is there, the Thousand Waters Spirit Control Sect has nothing to worry about in terms of future development.

At this moment.

Mu Ziyu slowly walked down.

"The two patriarchs have arrived. Please come with me to greet them!"

"As for my husband's matter, don't reveal it to anyone yet. Let him arrange everything himself."

On the vast crescent-shaped spirit island.

Two beams of light descended from the sky simultaneously, revealing themselves.

An immense and noble aura emanated from the area.

"Welcome to the Thousand Waters Spirit Control Sect, both of you!"

Mu Ziyu took the initiative to lead Lü Ziming and the others forward and bowed.

"Sect Leader Mu, you're too kind!"

Qin Ming and his companion quickly bowed in return.

Facing the Thousand Water Spirit Sect Master, who only possessed the cultivation level of the late Golden Core stage, the two most powerful family heads within the Dao Source Chamber of Commerce dared not be the slightest bit arrogant.

All of this is naturally due to the other identity of this purple-robed Golden Core female cultivator – the Daoist partner of True Monarch Qingxuan.

To put it bluntly, nowadays, not only the two of them, but even the patriarchs of their families would treat this female cultivator with great respect, who only has the cultivation level of Golden Core.

"Please, Your Excellencies, the Thousand Waters Spiritual Sect has already prepared spiritual tea."

The group descended together towards the imposing black hall below.

"It is an honor to meet the two patriarchs today. On behalf of the entire Thousand Waters Spirit Control Sect, I would also like to express my gratitude to the Dao Source Chamber of Commerce for their assistance."

"Sect Leader Mu, please don't stand on ceremony. We are all one family, so there's no trouble at all!"

Inside the main hall, faced with Mu Ziyu's humble expression of gratitude, Qin Ming and his companion could only rise again and wave their hands repeatedly.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries.

Xue Zhong, the head of the Xue family, took the initiative to explain his purpose.

"To be honest, Sect Leader Mu, we two are here on behalf of the patriarchs of the three major families to discuss another important matter!"

"Please speak, Patriarch Xue!"

A strange light appeared in Mu Ziyu's beautiful eyes.

She was also very curious about what important matter could have prompted the two powerful family heads to come in person.

"The Bi family of Qinghu Island in the Central Sea is relocating to the Inner Star Sea, which conveniently creates a precious cave dwelling site centered around a fourth-grade high-quality spiritual vein."

As Xue Zhong revealed all the information.

Lu Ziming and the others were all extremely excited.

They never expected that after losing the Bianyu Sea Area, the Qianshui Yuling Sect would still have the opportunity to acquire a new fourth-grade high-quality spiritual vein.

"This opportunity is extremely rare, and the Bi family also specializes in water-based inheritances, so the land they left behind perfectly matches your sect's needs!"

Xue Zhong slowly turned his gaze to Mu Ziyu, and then a look of surprise flashed through his mind.

To his surprise, this purple-robed woman, who was only at the Golden Core stage, remained remarkably calm in the face of this momentous event that had excited the other Nascent Soul cultivators of the Thousand Waters Spirit Sect.

"As expected of Qingxuan Zhenjun's Daoist partner, although his cultivation level is not high, he can remain calm in the face of such great benefits, which shows his extraordinary character!" Xue Zhong thought to himself.

"I understand what Patriarch Xue means."

Mu Ziyu continued, "However, this matter is of great importance, and I am not able to make a decision on it directly."

"The key point is that the Thousand Water Spirit Control Sect is simply not qualified to trade that treasure cave from the Bi family!"

Qin Ming chuckled from the side: "Sect Leader Mu, there's no need to worry!"

"As long as your clan is willing, our three major families will naturally acquire that precious land for your clan free of charge, so that it can be left for your clan's future development."

Upon hearing this, Mu Ziyu was secretly alarmed.

The three major families are truly generous, actually paying such a huge price to facilitate the Qianshui Yuling Sect's trade to the Bi family's territory.

It seemed he was worried that Mu Ziyu might overthink things.

Qin Ming continued to explain, "True Monarch Qingxuan is the Pavilion Master of our Daoyuan Chamber of Commerce. Now that your sect is in trouble, our three families will naturally do our best to help. Moreover, Sect Master Mu need not worry. This transaction will not require your sect, including True Monarch Qingxuan, to pay any price. It is a token of our three families' goodwill."

At this moment, Lu Ziming and the others once again understood the true status of the Senior Brother Li and the Qingxuan Ancestor they had been talking about!

At this time, the three major families were still unaware that the person had successfully advanced to the next level.

Even so, the three major families were willing to pay such a price. On the other hand...

Qin Ming and Xue Zhong exchanged a glance.

The decision made by the three families was naturally the result of discussions among their ancestors, and their purpose was nothing more than this.

Show sincerity.

Now, more than five years have passed since the end of the War of the Heavens, and some of the inside stories from that time have come out.

This includes those on the Earthly Fiends Ranking who received the opportunity to be restored from the seal of Heaven and Earth.

The choice made by the three families was not even a gamble.

They could hardly imagine the reason why that True Monarch Qingxuan failed to advance; it was simply a matter of time.

Given the extraordinary talent displayed by that True Monarch Qingxuan, once he successfully advances to the next level, his strength and methods will become even more unfathomable.

The price we pay is nothing compared to the need to be deeply bound to that Azure Mystic True Monarch.

But at this moment.

Mu Ziyu stood up and bowed to Qin Ming and the other person, saying, "Thank you for the support of the three great families for the Thousand Water Spirit Sect!"

"However, this matter is of great importance, and I truly cannot make the decision myself. I can only wait for my husband to decide!"

In an instant, Qin Ming and his companion looked at each other in bewilderment.

This is a huge benefit that has been delivered to our doorstep for free, without any cost whatsoever.

Unexpectedly, the sect leader refused to agree.

Qin Ming was quick to react and seized the opportunity to ask, "May I ask, Sect Leader Mu, is there any news from the Pavilion Master recently?"

"Since my husband announced his intention to go into seclusion, we have not heard from him again."

After a while.

With Mu Ziyu and others seeing them off, Qin Ming and Xue Zhong slowly departed from the Qianshui Yuling Sect's residence.

On the black spirit boat.

Qin Ming shook his head with a wry smile: "I never expected that our three major families would be rejected when we offered gifts!"

"This woman has an extraordinary character!"

Xue Zhong, however, showed an expression of admiration.

"Just as the news said, she is a person with both skill and vision, worthy of being the Daoist partner of True Monarch Qingxuan!"

"Yes!"

Qin Ming nodded in agreement: "The cultivation level of the Golden Core stage has no limitations on one's vision."

"That True Monarch Qingxuan is currently in seclusion, attempting to break through to the late Nascent Soul stage. He probably won't be back for a while. How should we handle this matter?"

After a moment's thought, Qin Ming said, "I think we should trade back the Bi family's base first!"

"Once that person returns, it can also be used as a congratulatory gift for our three major families."

"That's right, that's what I think too!"

"No matter what the situation in the Eastern World becomes in the future, it will be difficult for the Thousand Waters Spirit Control Sect to return to the Eastern World."

the other side.

Although Lu Ziming and the others were puzzled, they did not say anything.

After all, this matter is of great importance and involves too many factors, so we can only wait for that person to return before making a decision.

Only Mu Ziyu watched Xue Chong and the other person's departing figures, then smiled and shook her head.

Her refusal was, of course, for another reason.

Even though the three major families have no conditions, this is still a debt of gratitude, which may affect her husband's future plans.

Of course, more importantly, she did not believe that the Bi family's residence would necessarily become the new sect of the Thousand Waters Spirit Control Sect.

"Although my husband hasn't shown any other attitude, based on my understanding of him, he's not the kind of person who follows the crowd blindly!"

A hint of confidence appeared in Mu Ziyu's eyes.

She had known her husband since he was a weak man, so she naturally knew his methods and character very well.

Faced with the upheaval and catastrophe in the eastern world, others might choose to avoid it, but her husband would definitely not, and would most likely choose to participate in it to scheme for greater benefits.

"Junior brothers and sisters, and your two nephews, please return to your quarters and await your husband's return."
-
A sea of ​​dark clouds.

The endless, thick dark clouds condensed into a vast barrier, shrouding the entire expanse of sea and sky.

At this moment, a vast expanse of dark blue ocean appeared in the central area of ​​the dark cloud barrier.

A vast and mysterious pressure continuously erupted from the depths of the deep blue ocean, sweeping across the heavens and earth.

call!call!
Suddenly, towering waves surged from the depths of the deep blue ocean, crashing against the heavens and earth, causing the entire spatial barrier to tremble.

The next moment, the deep blue ocean began to change again, transforming into an endless expanse of pure azure.

A mysterious blue light illuminated the heavens and the earth, purifying the thick, dark clouds on the outside. At the same time, a faint golden light shone out, and the azure ocean instantly transformed into a pale golden ocean, revealing a vast and noble aura that ruled over the heavens and the earth.

A moment later, the branch of the Great Dao of Water Heavyness appeared.

As time passed, the entire deep blue ocean eventually transformed into a profound darkness, like a hellish abyss that swallowed the heavens and the earth, silently merging into the universe.

A corner beneath the sea.

A beautiful woman in a long white dress, exuding an aloof and independent air, stared intently at the changes in the sky above.

She still possessed that eternally cold and beautiful face, but the aura around her was no longer as icy as before; instead, it had become warmer.

Is he about to wake up?

A slight ripple stirred within Bingying Zhenjun's calm heart, and a hint of emotion flickered in her eyes.

A year ago, she had already completed her advancement and entered the peak of the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm. After that, she quietly waited for that person to awaken.

During that year, she witnessed the other party's cultivation firsthand.

They also deeply understood why this person could be called the most monstrous person with the strongest destiny in the Southern Moon Sea.

That almost exaggerated speed at which she comprehended the power of the Great Dao made her feel a deep sense of powerlessness.

After entering the late Nascent Soul stage, that person's strength increased every moment.

She could clearly sense it simply through that immense pressure.

At this moment.

But then the black abyss that had enveloped the heavens and earth gradually dispersed, and a blurry figure slowly emerged between heaven and earth.

At this moment, a complex feeling arose in Bingying Zhenjun's heart.

The transaction between the two has been completed.

Upon this meeting, both parties will return to their previous identities and positions.

Gradually, a young figure dressed in a simple blue Taoist robe, with a slightly handsome face, was fully revealed.

The overwhelming pressure from the late-stage Nascent Soul realm had long since dissipated.

From afar, the young figure in the green robe seemed to have never existed, silent and invisible, blending into the world.

Seeing that familiar face slowly open its eyes, revealing a deep and calm gaze, a struggle appeared on Bingying Zhenjun's jade-like face, but she eventually regained her composure and took the initiative to step forward.

"Bingying pays respects to Ancestor Qingxuan!"

Just as outsiders pay homage to powerful beings in the late Nascent Soul stage, True Monarch Bingying also bowed deeply in respect.

"Fellow Daoist, why must you be like this!"

A hint of brilliance finally surfaced in the depths of Li Qing's usually calm and collected eyes, before slowly settling back down.

"Leaving aside the fact that our two sects are blood allies, the friendship between us, fellow Daoist, and my help in achieving the late Nascent Soul stage is so profound that we need not concern ourselves with the formalities of the outside world!"

"You flatter me, Ancestor. This is merely a transaction, and I have gained quite a bit from it. How can we talk about friendship?"

Bingying Zhenjun abandoned her formalities and gently shook her head.

Seeing this, Li Qing couldn't help but smile gently: "Why must Palace Master Bingying be so heartless? Although we have come to this point because of a transaction, it is also a kind of fate."

"Perhaps it is fate that I am destined to have such a special bond with Palace Mistress Bingying!"

Faced with such a frank attitude, Bingying Zhenjun's icy and beautiful face seemed to melt, becoming slightly gentler, and the last trace of complicated emotions in her heart completely dissipated.

"From now on, you may address me as 'fellow Daoist'!"

Li Qing smiled slowly.

"Very well, then I congratulate Fellow Daoist Qing on your advancement to the late Nascent Soul stage!"

Bingying Zhenjun nodded slightly.

Seeing this, a hint of curiosity flashed in Li Qing's eyes.

Although Bingying Zhenjun appeared to be completely normal, he had already sensed the change in the other party. It was not a change in cultivation level, but a change in state of mind.

"I haven't even remembered to congratulate Fellow Daoist Bingying on advancing to the peak of the mid-Nascent Soul stage. It seems you've also gained quite a bit!"

"Not bad!"

Bingying Zhenjun made no attempt to hide her feelings: "With the support of the power of heart chill, I not only completed my advancement, but also took the opportunity to reshape my mind!"

Amusement flickered in Li Qing's eyes.

"It seems that Fellow Daoist Bingying has also gained a great deal from this dual cultivation method, and I am not the only one who has benefited. This has greatly reduced my sense of guilt!"

Hearing such words, which carried a hint of mockery, True Monarch Bingying first frowned slightly, and then continued, "In the past, Bingxin seemed to be isolated from all things, but she also lost her inherent resilience and vitality. As the saying goes, 'Too much rigidity leads to breakage.'"

As she said, the gains from this dual cultivation will be equally important for her future spiritual practice.

Compared to her previous frozen heart that isolated her from everything, she no longer needs to suppress her emotions. She accepts everything and lets it pass through her heart without leaving a trace.

Especially after rebuilding her mindset, she felt the last bit of separation between herself and the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth dissipate.

Bingying Zhenjun's indifferent reaction only aroused Li Qing's interest, and he continued with a smile: "Your sect has an ancient and powerful heritage, and Fellow Daoist Bingying's future path is also limitless!"

"Perhaps I will need Fellow Daoist Bingying's help in the future."

"Take care of?"

Bingying Zhenjun's lips twitched slightly.

Despite the remarkable heritage of the Ice Palace, she had come to a profound understanding of the gap between herself and the other party.

Given the terrifying methods and strength he has displayed, how many people in the entire world are qualified to take care of him?

"Fellow Daoist Qing, are you perhaps making fun of me?"

Gazing at the young figure in a green robe whose aura was faintly visible before her, True Monarch Bingying frowned once more.

Seeing this, Li Qing chuckled and stopped teasing the aloof beauty.

"Now that Fellow Daoist Bingying has successfully advanced, are there any further plans?"

Bingying Zhenjun gently shook her head.

Ice Palace has already moved to the Central Sea along with Thousand Water Spirit Sect. In addition, the situation in the Eastern Sea is intensifying, and she is unable to return to Luoyun Sea. She has no good plans.

"The Ice Palace is now located in the same sea area as the Thousand Water Spirit Control Sect. Fellow Daoist Bingying, you might as well return to your sect first and cultivate in seclusion. We will make a decision after I return to the sect."
