Starting as a Grandmaster, all of my cultivation techniques are at max level.

Ye Sanshu's fingertips moved away from Xia Jin's brow, and the coordinate mark was deeply engraved in Xia Jin's soul.

However, as Xia Jin carefully perceived the specific location indicated by the coordinates, the joy on his face slowly faded.

What's going on? How could that thing be in this place?

He could imagine that the place where the Nine-Generation Primordial Vine grew was definitely not simple. It was an extremely rare thing, with only one plant born every million years. It must have grown in some kind of extremely dangerous environment.

But to his utter surprise, the coordinates pointed to the location of the Boundless Sea!

That's right, the Boundless Sea!

It should be understood that in this universe, whether it is the demon race, the human race, or those so-called alien races, they occupy at most 70% of the territory.

The remaining 30% of the vast territory was forcibly separated by the legendary Boundless Sea.

Legend has it that on the other side of the Boundless Sea lies the true source of darkness, where a being far more terrifying than the holy beings of the alien races lurks in its depths.

Therefore, even those Saint Realm beings at the pinnacle among the alien races dared not cross the Boundless Sea even half a step to invade the so-called source of darkness.

According to the coordinates that Ye Sanshu had just transmitted, the Nine-Life Primordial Vine was actually growing on a remote island in the Boundless Sea.

Does that mean that if I want to obtain the so-called Nine-Life Primordial Vine, I must first enter the Boundless Sea?

Xia Jin stared intently at Ye Sanshu in front of her, her eyes flashing with a sharp light.

At this moment, a thought couldn't help but cross his mind: Could he have been deceived by the old man in front of him?

If humans want to reach the Boundless Sea and its edge, they only have two paths to take.

They could either traverse the territory of the demon race and travel by taking a shortcut, or they could directly cross the vast territory occupied by other races and conceal their presence as they went.

Where did this old man find out these coordinates in the first place?

Xia Jin was about to speak when Ye Sanshu interrupted her.

Ye Sanshu took the initiative to explain.

"Fellow Daoist Xia, I know what you're thinking right now. You might think I'm deceiving you, deliberately digging a huge pit for you to jump into."

Ye Sanshu's voice carried a hint of self-deprecation, but he wasn't angry. "But I would never lie to you about this. Nor would I have any reason to."

"After all, the oath of Heaven cannot take effect until we have the item! And you can't possibly take action against those three old ghosts, Xuanwei, just for my sake!!"

"You...can back out anytime!!"

Xia Jin narrowed her eyes slightly; it was indeed the case.

I would never do such a losing deal before I have received the goods.

"After my second failed attempt to break through to the Saint Realm, I was already filled with despair. The unhealable Dao wounds were eroding my soul and body day and night."

"At that time, I thought, since I'm not going to live much longer anyway, rather than waiting to die, I might as well take advantage of the fact that I still have some fighting strength to see what the Boundless Sea is like. Even if I end up being buried in that sea, it's better than dying silently among the old and frail."

Ye Sanshu spoke slowly, seemingly lost in memories.

"Back then, when I went to the Boundless Sea, I started from the human territory and passed through the territory of the Golden-Winged Clan."

"As one of the eight major alien races, the Golden-Winged Clan's strength is naturally not to be underestimated. Concealing their aura, given my abilities at the time, wouldn't have been too difficult!"

"But what I was thinking at the time was that since I was going to die anyway, I could take as many alien races down with me as possible. So I didn't hide my aura and slaughtered the golden-winged alien race until blood flowed like a river."

"I was lucky to survive! At that time, the Golden-Winged Clan's patriarch, Chi Ji, wasn't even in the clan. Even though the others wanted to surround and kill me, I managed to hold out until I reached the edge of the Boundless Sea. At that time, I was determined to die, so I threw myself into the Boundless Sea."

"I thought this was the end."

"Unexpectedly, not only did I not die, but I was also swept away by an undercurrent and rushed all the way to a lonely island in the depths of the Boundless Sea."

"The island was very small, only a few miles in circumference. In the center of the island, there was a plant I had never seen before, coiled around a huge black rock. That was the Nine-Generation Primordial Vine."

At this point, a strange light flashed in Ye Sanshu's eyes, as if he were seeing that shocking scene from back then all over again.

"Nine-Generation Primordial Vine!?" Even Xia Jin couldn't help but feel a little nervous upon hearing this.

"Those vines are simply the most wondrous and divine things I have ever seen in this world!!"

"Every inch of it, from root to tip, exudes a rich primordial energy. Do you know that? That's primordial energy! For anyone in this world to obtain even a wisp of it is an immense blessing."

"But before that Nine-Life Primordial Vine, the Primordial Qi was so abundant it was almost condensing into liquid!!"

"Countless tiny human and beast figures surrounded the Nine-Life Primordial Vine, as if it were the manifestation of its nine lifetimes of reincarnation. I was seriously injured at the time and thought I was going to die, but the Nine-Life Primordial Vine seemed to sense that my life force was draining away, and it actually took the initiative to separate a wisp of primordial energy and merge it into my body."

"Just that one wisp." Ye Sanshu raised his palm and looked at it, then gave a bitter smile. "It stopped the deterioration of my Dao injury, which was on the verge of collapse, and kept me alive."

"However, the Nine-Life Primordial Vine didn't seem to like any living beings approaching its main body. A sudden surge of giant waves swept me back to the edge of the Boundless Sea. When I woke up, I found that most of my wounds had healed."

He looked up at Xia Jin, his eyes filled with indescribable excitement.

"From then on, I memorized those coordinates. I originally planned to return to that isolated island after successfully breaking through to the Saint Realm, when I had enough strength, and try to pluck that Nine-Life Primordial Vine. But..."

As Ye Sanshu spoke, the bitterness at the corners of his mouth grew even stronger.

"But that threshold of the Saint Realm, just when I felt I was about to reach it, was still like an insurmountable chasm."

"So, Fellow Daoist Xia, you can rest assured, the coordinates I just gave you are absolutely accurate!"

Looking at Ye Sanshu's sincere face, Xia Jin's doubts gradually subsided.

"Very well. I trust you!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Sanshu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fellow Daoist Xia! Although your strength is indeed very strong, and you have the coordinates I gave you, the Nine Incarnations Primordial Vine is still located in the Boundless Sea. Please be extremely careful on this journey!" Ye Sanshu warned.

"Mm!" Xia Jin nodded.

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Ye, although your injuries have stabilized considerably, they are not yet fully healed. If the Crimson Halberd of the Golden-Winged Clan were to seek you out again, leaving you here alone would be tantamount to waiting for death."

"I have an avatar in the Heavenly Alliance. Although the avatar is not as strong as my main body, it is enough to hold its own against ordinary Saint Realm beings."

"If you're willing, you can come back to the Heavenly Alliance with me. There, at least you can recover in peace."

Upon hearing this, a hint of hesitation appeared in Ye Sanshu's eyes.

"Alright! But I still have one more thing to take care of. After I finish that, I will head to the Heavenly Alliance! At that time, I will have to trouble Fellow Daoist Xia."

Xia Jin said no more, only nodded slightly to Ye Sanshu, and then her figure disappeared.

He did not immediately set off for the Boundless Sea, but returned to the Heavenly Alliance.

This journey will take an unknown amount of time.

Although his avatar is stationed within the Heavenly Alliance, that avatar can only handle one Saint Realm being at most. If it were to be besieged by multiple Saint Realm beings, or if an even more terrifying being were to descend, that avatar would probably not be able to hold out for long.

Before he left, he had to leave some foundation for the Heavenly Alliance.

The corpse of the progenitor of the Corpse Clan, which he had almost completely refined, was the greatest treasure he intended to leave to the Heavenly Alliance.
