Mortal: I possess a copy of the Jade Manual of the Sea of ​​Consciousness!

"What are you lot doing here instead of staying on Kui Xing Island?"

A hoarse, aged voice echoed throughout the space.

A streak of light, moving as fast as teleportation, pierced the sky and descended upon the scene like a thunderbolt.

Wait for the disappearing light to dissipate.

A short, hunchbacked old man dressed in a golden feather robe came into view.

The old man had just arrived when he narrowed his small eyes and looked at the four people, including Island Master Mu, with hostility.

Under the oppressive aura of the Golden Sparrow Ancestor, the four quickly recovered and bowed respectfully.

"We have met the Golden Sparrow Ancestor. May we ask what brings you to Kui Xing Island?"

"Hmm? Do you want me to say it a second time?!"

A cold glint flashed in the eyes of the Golden Sparrow Ancestor, and the golden spiritual energy around him suddenly became violent.

Like a volcano about to erupt, the air around us was so heavy it was hard to breathe.

Seeing the Nascent Soul Grandmaster's angry expression, the four dared not utter another word.

"Reporting to senior, the four of us arrived here only because we sensed a battle breaking out here just now."

Moreover, the remaining aura here was clearly two strands of spiritual power at the Core Formation level!

The four of us sensed something was wrong, so we rushed over together.

Unexpectedly, we arrived too late. Not only did we not see the villain, but we also did not know the identity of the deceased Core Formation cultivator.

"Could it be that the deceased Core Formation cultivator is one of your nephews or nieces?"

The Golden Sparrow Ancestor gave Wang Heng a cold glance. This kid is really bad at speaking!

He then glanced at the other three and received the same answer.

"In that case, Ancestor, I would like to use your resources to investigate this matter."

I wonder if my four young friends would be willing to help this old man?

Once the true culprit is identified, I, the patriarch, will reward you accordingly. Are you willing or not?!

"this……"

Wang Heng was in a dilemma, as that person possessed the strength to forcibly kill a cultivator in the early stage of Core Formation.

In other words, that person's strength was at least at the mid-stage of Core Formation.

It's not impossible for him to investigate.

But Yuan'er is only at the early stage of Core Formation. If she encounters that villain and loses her life during this process...

The other three were also unwilling; they didn't want to get involved in this mess.

However, since the other party was a Nascent Soul Ancestor, he could not refuse to save face for the other party.

Another dilemma.

The Golden Sparrow Ancestor did not urge him further at this time, although he did not care about the death of a Core Formation stage cultivator.

But if this gets out, will the Golden Sparrow Ancestor still have any face left?

The tracking restrictions he left inside Fengque's body were unable to lock onto the other party.

What kind of information can be found out by relying on these nobodies?

They really are trying to ruin my life at this crucial moment!

The Golden Sparrow Ancestor began to devise a plan in his mind on how to lure the other party out.

After glancing around, the Golden Sparrow Ancestor reached out and grabbed.

He grasped a ball of water-attribute spiritual energy in his hand.

"Unfortunately, there's only this trace, so we can't be sure what kind of cultivation technique the other party is practicing."

Water-attribute treasures... I remember there was a piece of Sea Abyss Black Iron that I had never used.

The Golden Sparrow Secret Realm is about to open, so it might be worthwhile to use some means to send this item in.

Then I will plant a hidden restriction on the black iron.

Whoever gets their hands on it, I'll have to investigate it thoroughly, hmph...

He thought about how to lure out the villain who killed the phoenix.

The Golden Sparrow Ancestor's expression softened slightly.

If the other party really doesn't fall for it, then we'll have to give up on this matter for now.

I can't possibly turn the entire Chaotic Star Sea upside down just for a dead female cultivator.

I have neither the energy nor the ability.

At this moment, the four members of the Wood Island Master's group also figured things out.

One is at the Core Formation stage, the other at the Nascent Soul stage; it goes without saying which one will be offended.

"Senior, we have considered it carefully and are willing to serve our ancestor faithfully to uncover the identity of that villain!"

The Golden Sparrow Ancestor already had an idea in mind, and nodded slightly in acknowledgment to the three people's answers.

"Then you shall begin your search. If you find even the slightest suspicious clue, you must inform me."

I have important matters to attend to, so I will not linger here any longer.

He casually left a comment: "The Golden Sparrow Ancestor came quickly and left quickly."

Only then did the four realize what was happening, feeling somewhat helpless.

"So it turns out that the Golden Sparrow Old Monster doesn't have the ability to track down that villain!"

Otherwise, they wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to send us to search."

Island Master Mu suddenly realized something and felt somewhat relieved.

Based on the old monster's behavior just now, he had already guessed that the other party was only asking them to do this as a show.

One of his disciples, who had reached the Core Formation stage, died suddenly, and he was still unable to find the perpetrator.

If this gets out, it will definitely be a huge embarrassment for me.

However, as a Nascent Soul level expert, the opponent certainly possesses more than just these abilities.

It seems the other party has other tricks up their sleeve to lure the villain out.

However, this is beyond the scope of their jurisdiction; they should just focus on doing their jobs well.

"The Golden Sparrow Ancestor has already given the order; we can no longer avoid this matter."

"Each organization should send its personnel to gather information. This sect leader and Yuan'er will not linger any longer."

Wang Heng and Zhou Yuan bowed to Island Master Mu and Elder Miao.

They transformed into two streaks of light and returned to Kui Xing Island ahead of everyone else.

Island Master Mu watched Wang Heng and Zhou Yuan's retreating figures and sneered inwardly.

It's coming soon; before long, the entire Kuixing Island will be reduced to ruins!

You two won't be able to keep this up for much longer.

……

Three days later.

On an unnamed island thousands of miles away from Kui Xing Island.

Wang Xuan concealed his presence and blended in among them.

He knocked the cultivators on the island unconscious, then disguised himself as them and lived his life day after day.

Fortunately, the spiritual energy here is thin, making it unsuitable for cultivators to live here.

This person is also nearing the end of his life and came here hoping to spend the rest of his wasted life in peace.

This person didn't have any old friends in this place and lived his life alone every day.

Inside the cave dwelling was a vegetable garden and some small flower beds.

It seems that the other person's temperament is also beginning to change towards that of an ordinary person, and their habits are not much different.

Wang Xuan collected some of the other party's notes and put them back into the unconscious old man's storage bag.

In addition, some pills that could improve one's Qi Refining stage cultivation were also taken out and placed on the table.

A restriction was set up at the entrance of the cave.

Wang Xuan took out the golden pill from the Taoist nun Fengque.

He preserved this golden elixir using a secret method.

This is also why all the essence within the Golden Elixir has not been lost.

"This golden pill contains a vast amount of essence, but unfortunately, in the mortal world, one cannot directly swallow a golden pill to improve one's cultivation."

The advancement of a cultivator's realm involves a profound understanding of the Dao of Heaven, which cannot be achieved overnight.

However, I possess the Jade Manual. If I were to incorporate this golden elixir into a pill that can enhance cultivation, I wonder what changes would occur…”

Wang Xuan pondered for a moment.

He then took out a Haoyuan Pill from his storage bag, which could enhance his Core Formation stage cultivation.

A thought arose.

The Golden Core and the Haoyuan Core appeared in the sea of ​​consciousness, using the Jade Manual as a medium to combine their respective strengths and discard their weaknesses.

Wang Xuan observed all of this, just as the two golden lights were about to merge together.

hum!

Yu Jue trembled, releasing an unfathomable power that abruptly interrupted the fusion.

Then, the Golden Elixir and the Haoyuan Elixir returned to Wang Xuan's hands.

"As expected, this method still won't work. It seems that the use of the Golden Elixir cannot be linked to improving cultivation."

In this way, only offense and defense remain. I have enough cultivation techniques to reach the Nascent Soul stage.

Since my natal magic weapon hasn't been forged yet, let's first fuse it to create a more powerful killing weapon.

With just this flying sword magic weapon, I'm still somewhat lacking in strength to fight against cultivators of the same level.
