A Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Wang Yu Transmigrates into a Book, the Dao Ancestor of Rein

Chapter 171 This Lord remains true to his name and identity, embarking on a shopping spree (Additional 3k words)

"Fellow Daoist Lei?"

Dragon Whale Big Fatty wanted to ask for more specific questions.

The next moment, the Thunder Whale opened its mouth and spat out a purple demon core crackling with lightning.

Another miniature version of the Thunder Whale Demon Soul, filled with terror, coiled around it:
"Fellow Daoist Long, save me! A human cultivator is attacking me with a magic weapon!"

The spirit and the demon core rushed straight towards the dragon whale.

Upon hearing this, the siren's countless compound eyes were filled with suspicion.

"Human cultivators?"

Is there a human cultivator with a ghostly shadow here?

How come he didn't see it?
Upon hearing this, the dragon whale's eyelids twitched violently, and it quickly scanned the surrounding sea area with its divine sense, but found nothing:
"I didn't find it, Fellow Daoist Lei..."

Despite his doubts, he didn't slow down at all. While using his divine sense to probe and be wary of his surroundings, he also swam through the air towards the Thunder Whale, quickly approaching it.

Once the enormous body, thousands of feet tall, started moving, it was not slow at all, but incredibly fast.

just.

The dragon whale wanted to rendezvous with the thunder whale, but the thunder whale suddenly stopped.

It slowed down and came to a stop in the same spot.

"Fellow Daoist Lei?"

The dragon whale was somewhat puzzled by this.

Didn't they say that human cultivators were attacking you? Why did you stop? Why don't you hurry up and regroup?
When the Thunder Whale's primordial spirit met the Dragon Whale's gaze, it suddenly shuddered, then hesitated, unsure whether it should continue to approach.

Why is this hesitation occurring?
Without him.

It lies in the realm of divine consciousness.

Just a second before, a kind reminder reached Thunder Whale's ears:

"Fellow Daoist is currently only in spirit form, which is a great tonic for the dragon whale..."

These words made Lei Jing's spirit hesitate, worried that what this person said might really be true.

"Fellow Daoist Lei, don't panic, I, Long, am here."

On the Dragon Whale's side, thinking that something had happened to their friend, they sped up again.

Seeing this, Lei Jing became even more conflicted.

"Chance."

Just then, ripples appeared in the void, and a large hand of magical power materialized out of thin air, grabbing towards the Thunder Whale's spirit and demon core.

Upon seeing this, Lei Jing's eyes filled with fear, and he greatly regretted his hesitation.

That delay was a matter of life and death.

How could he doubt his own friend?
It immediately transformed into a streak of light and swam away quickly. In just a few breaths, it would reunite with the dragon whale and receive its protection.

On the other side of the magical hand, a yellow light appeared and shot towards the Thunder Whale Spirit three times faster.

The source of the yellow light was none other than a small, bright green monkey with a pair of large nostrils.

It was a weeping soul.

Ahead, the Thunder Whale Spirit, which was fleeing rapidly with its purple inner core, suddenly changed its expression upon sensing the approaching yellow light.

The dragon whale was furious when it saw the suddenly formed magical hand and the suddenly appearing wailing soul.

"How brave!"

Upon seeing this, the siren's many eyes began to change color:
"So, there really are human cultivators hiding nearby."

However, he did not intend to help the Thunder Whale and the Dragon Whale.

Human cultivators are certainly annoying, but those two from the Thunder Whale and Dragon Whale clans aren't exactly saints either.

Long Dapang and Lei Dacu hadn't given him a friendly look before. Instead of undergoing their transformation tribulation elsewhere, they came to his territory to cause trouble and bully him. Now that they were in trouble, he was already being very restrained by not kicking them while they were down.

Han Li quickly stored the Thunder Whale's massive body in his large-capacity storage bag and then looked to the other side.

At this moment, the spirit of the Thunder Whale had already been struck by the yellow light that struck first.

The Soul-Absorbing Yellow Light is the innate skill of the Soul-Crying One.

It has a natural restraining effect on the soul.

After entangling the spirit of the Thunder Whale, it will roll back into the two large nostrils of the Crying Soul.

"what is this?"

The Thunder Whale spirit was greatly surprised.

Struggle desperately.

The two sides immediately fell into a stalemate.

Han Li narrowed his eyes upon seeing this:
"The little monkeys these days are still lacking in experience."

In its initial stage, the Soul Crying Formation is not of a high rank. Although it has an innate advantage over souls, it does not possess the overwhelming advantage to defeat an eighth-level Thunder Whale spirit in one fell swoop.

"However, I didn't expect the little monkey to be able to easily capture the soul of a transformed demon beast."

The magical hand grabbed the dragon whale before it arrived, then withdrew.

Just as the dragon whale's rage was about to overflow its eyes, it took the little monkey, the demon core, and the spirit, and flew into the air, soaring hundreds of miles high.

"How dare you! Where do you think you're going?"

The dragon whale gave chase.

But they only deserve to be left to eat dust in Han Li's backside.

In the blink of an eye, Han Li's figure vanished without a trace.

The dragon whale was left high in the sky, venting its frustrations on its own.

"Human, who exactly are you?"

Long Dapang initially didn't expect to receive a response.

But Han Li responded in a rather unusual way:

"I am Qingyi, from Hainan Crane Island, within the Inner Star..."

Nascent Soul cultivators in the Inner Star Sea?

"Qingyi, is that right? I'll remember you. The Dragon Whale Clan and the Thunder Whale Clan will remember you."

The dragon whale roared to the sky.

Abnormal anger.

But the next moment, a compressed arrow of wind shot out in response to him.

Long Dapang was caught off guard and got hit squarely.

The exploding wind blades scattered most of the protective demonic cloud, and then, with almost no loss of power, tore through the dragon whale's massive body.

Most of them are blocked by the fine scales.

A small portion of the wound scratched the exposed parts of the dragon whale.

Blood seeped from the wounds, causing him great pain.

This further enraged the dragon whale:

"asshole!"

The rampant and abundant demonic power was unleashed, and the impact of the exploding wind arrows was quickly neutralized, revealing the enormous creature with slight injuries.

"Ho ho ho..."

The dragon whale shrank rapidly, and soon transformed into its first stage of human-beast form.

All external injuries have disappeared, and his towering physique further accentuates his extremely defined muscle lines.

His arms were thicker than Han Li's thighs.

"Human, if you have the guts, come out and have a fierce battle with me, Long."

They, the demon race, are all lone wolves who will fight anyone who disagrees, usually openly.

Humans are often very cunning.

They love to launch sneak attacks.

And he always likes to stick together in groups for warmth and support. "Ahem, I have no children, I'm all alone..."

Han Li responded.

If he didn't have the ability, so be it; he certainly didn't leave any offspring.

In short, they will not show up.

At the same time, he was secretly alarmed by the thick hide and tough flesh of the level eight demon beast.

If a Nascent Soul cultivator of the same level were to be struck by an arrow like this, they would definitely not feel good.

The dragon whale took an arrow head-on, but only suffered a minor scratch; otherwise, it was completely unharmed.

Even though he shortened the charging time, the Wind Pattern Ring's attack should not be underestimated.

Level 8 demonic beasts are indeed beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

Not to mention special demon cultivators with powerful bloodlines.

"Qingyi, you just wait and see."

The dragon whale could only rage helplessly.

It's true, we can't catch up with it, and we can't even perceive it.

If the other party doesn't take action or leave any trace, he'll be completely clueless.

That's really shameless.

...

After testing the waters a few times, Han Li realized he couldn't handle an eighth-level dragon whale, so he immediately fled far away.

This big guy has really thick skin.

Besides, he's already made a fortune, so there's no need for him to stay any longer.

"The bloodline of the Thunder Whale is extraordinary. It seems that there is a formula for refining some kind of body-tempering medicine using the Thunder Whale's demon core in the Five Dragon Sea."

“I remember that the finished pills made from the demon core of a level seven thunder whale are enough to tempt Nascent Soul cultivators. If my level eight inner core can be used to make finished pills… it will definitely be even better.”

Although the Chaotic Star Sea also has recipes for refining high-quality pills using the Thunder Whale Demon Core.

But this place is ultimately too isolated.

There was a lack of communication with the Great Jin.

The prescription was passable, but it was only passable.

It does not reach the level of rare or even top-quality items in the same category.

"If the opportunity arises, it would be good to re-establish contact with Xiang Zhili."

He doesn't have to go to Wulonghai.

But he needs to obtain some of the medicinal formulas from over there.

Of course.

If we could use the ancient teleportation array from the Great Jin Dynasty to the Five Dragon Sea, that would be the best outcome.

The level eight Thunder Whale is valuable not only for its demon core but also for its spirit.

Not only can it be used to refine pills and promote cultivation, but it can also be used to refine "Spirit-Subduing Talismans" as a trump card.

"The lineage of the Spirit Summoning Talisman may still be in the Heavenly Talisman Sect."

If we could get our hands on it, it would be like adding wings to a tiger.

"Once the Void Heaven Palace instance is finished, we should return to Tiannan as quickly as possible, and then travel through the grasslands to the Great Jin..."

From here, he can travel through the Nine Heavens Gale Layer to reach the Great Jin Dynasty, saving him most of the trouble along the way.

Furthermore, some materials from the Thunder Whale can also be refined into several rare treasures.

For example, the newly grown purple horn on its forehead.

For example, the complete skeleton of the Thunder Whale, forged through countless trials and tribulations.

Its stomach pouch can also be refined into a storage item that can hold a vast space within a mustard seed.

Leather is also a great material for making legal boots and robes.

The leather that survived the tribulation of transformation has considerable resistance to lightning.

and.

He really needs to get a new pair of magical boots.

His cloud-stepping boots are far from keeping up with his current pace.

Next is the "Lightning Absorbing Pearl" inherent in the Thunder Whale's body. This treasure can absorb and store a certain amount of lightning. This is also a major source of the Thunder Whale's confidence in resisting the Transformation Lightning Tribulation. If it can be refined into a rare treasure, it will naturally have a significant advantage when facing lightning-type cultivators known for their offensive capabilities.

"Furthermore, if I can obtain Golden Thunder Bamboo and refine it into a natal magic weapon, the evil-repelling divine thunder generated can be stored in large quantities using the Thunder Absorption Pearl."

When facing the enemy, unleash several times the full power.

Demonic cultivators and ancient demons of the demon race will find it extremely troublesome to face him.

Also.

When the sixth Black Dragon reaches level eight and undergoes the tribulation of transformation lightning, the Lightning Absorbing Pearl will become a great help.

In short, the more the merrier.

...

More than half a month later, we arrived at Silver Shark Island.

After purchasing all sorts of high-level supplies on the island, he returned directly to the Inner Star Sea Sky City.

Inside the Starry Sky Palace.

He repeated the same operation as before.

We visited dozens of offshore islands.

Using his seemingly inexhaustible supply of spirit stones, he amassed huge quantities of high-level items on the monster island. Whether it was high-grade monster cores or mid-to-high-grade monster materials, he didn't let anything that caught his eye go.

He also relied on his late-stage Core Formation cultivation level, so no one dared to question or inquire about him.

Even if it attracted some attention, it only spread within the single island of monsters.

Then, relying on his powerful divine sense to nip problems in the bud, he secretly knocked out some cultivators from various forces who were thinking of returning to the Inner Star Sea to report on him. After dealing with some minor issues, he left triumphantly.

In this way, he spent more than two million spirit stones visiting one monster island after another.

In a short period of time, they obtained hundreds of demon cores and various materials that could only be produced by hundreds of high-level demon beasts. The amount of mid-level demon beast materials, ranging from level 2 to 4, filled several large storage bags.

Finally, after changing its appearance multiple times, it plundered all the markets and shops in Tianxing City, which surrounded the sacred mountain for thousands of miles.

With the aid of an invisible and intangible escape technique, those with the intention to track it down have no way of doing so.

Their actions were much faster than the message reached the Star Palace's higher-ups.

More than two hours after he left, the Star Palace discovered, through analyzing the price fluctuations during this period, that someone was frantically hoarding supplies.

In this regard.

The Star Palace also arranged for people to investigate.

They even dispatched three Nascent Soul elders to conduct investigations both openly and covertly, searching for clues on various outer sea monster islands and keeping watch over various markets.

Unfortunately, it's too late.

Han Li at this moment.

They had already begun a large-scale acquisition spree.

Today, they may have bought up most of the high-grade materials in the market from places hundreds of thousands of miles away.

Two days later, it appeared a million miles away.

Shops and markets everywhere looked as if they had been robbed.

Many years later, this incident was still talked about with great interest by some cultivators.

With the Invisible Escape Technique combined with the Nine Heavens Gale Escape, how could a mere few Nascent Soul cultivators possibly catch him?
Another hundred or so would be more like casting a wide net.

"The Void Heaven Palace is about to open."

"War is coming."

Stockpile supplies a few years in advance to avoid wasting spirit stones when prices soar.
