On the sea, the aftershocks slowly dissipated, the obscured sky regained its clarity, the dazzling sun rose, illuminating all directions, and a trace of residual heat still lingered in the air, rippling across the sea.

Yu Changsheng's face was pale, but his body remained still and upright like a pine tree. He stood in the air, his head bowed, coldly looking at Liu Yun, who was floating on the sea, his flesh and blood mangled and his breath weak. His gaze was icy.

"Cough cough..."

Liu Yun coughed weakly, a tearing pain shooting through his limbs. His face was deathly pale. He struggled to lift his eyes and meet Yu Changsheng's gaze. A flicker of panic crossed his eyes. He gritted his teeth and said in a low, threatening voice:

"Release me, you can't touch me. I am the Seventh Holy Son's man. If you kill me, you will be making an enemy of the Seventh Holy Son. At that time, no one can protect you."

"The Seventh Holy Son?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Changsheng raised an eyebrow slightly, but his expression remained unchanged. However, his gaze toward Liu Yun became even colder.

Liu Yun swallowed hard, trying to hide his trembling, and continued weakly:

"On the contrary, let me go, and I can guarantee you everything you want. I can forgive and forget what happened today, and I can agree to any conditions you have."

His tone was weak, but the threat and inducement were obvious, revealing Liu Yun's state of mind; at this moment, he was afraid.

"hehe."

Yu Changsheng chuckled coldly, his eyes shifting slightly as he looked at Liu Yun with a mocking expression, and said in a low voice, "Liu Yun, you really will make up anything to save your life."

"You are a dark and gloomy demonic cultivator, neither human nor ghost. How could you possibly have contact with the Seventh Holy Son?"

Yu Changsheng had heard of the seventh holy son of the Sea Beast Heavenly Island. To be more precise, he should be called the seventh in the sequence, not the holy son.

Sea Beast Heavenly Island has ten sequences, which are the ten strongest disciples of the younger generation, ranked according to their strength.

From the strongest first sequence to the weakest tenth sequence, they are all outstanding young talents on the Sea Beast Sky Island. Most of these disciples have the support of top family forces in the North Sea Region, and their cultivation is already quite remarkable when they enter the sect.

The position in the sequence is not fixed and can fluctuate. Whether it is the first sequence or the tenth sequence, one can be called a holy child, but not a holy child.

The so-called First Holy Son and Second Holy Son are just honorific titles used by outsiders to sound better. The Holy Son truly recognized by the Sea Beast Heavenly Island in this generation has not yet been decided.

However, it will basically be generated among the disciples of the sequence.

Therefore, every disciple in the sequence is actually a potential Holy Son. As candidates for Holy Son, they possess extraordinary strength and formidable methods, commanding a large following. Their status on the Sea Beast Heavenly Island is only higher than that of the inner sect elders. They are all true geniuses among geniuses.

Although Yu Changsheng had not personally met these ten disciples, he had heard of them and knew about them.

The seventh holy son, as Liu Yun mentioned, also known as the seventh sequence, is named Wang Sheng. He is a member of the Beast Taming Sect and the Myriad Laws Sect on the Sea Beast Heavenly Island, and is a well-known figure within the island.

His cultivation had reached the peak of the Purple Mansion realm several years ago, and his strength was terrifying. He had a record of killing demigods. Chen single-handedly took on multiple peak Purple Mansion cultivators and killed them with great force, which made him famous.

However, even such a prodigy only ranks seventh in the hierarchy. Of course, for ordinary disciples, this is an insurmountable barrier, extremely valuable and not to be trifled with.

……

……

These thoughts flashed through Yu Changsheng's mind. He smiled slightly and looked at Liu Yun with a mocking gaze. Liu Yun pursed his lips, feeling the killing intent in Yu Changsheng's eyes, and beads of cold sweat rolled down his forehead.

His mental defenses crumbled at this moment, and after a long silence, he replied in a low voice, "I used to be an inner disciple of the Sea Beast Heavenly Island, so it's normal for me to have some contact with the Seventh Holy Son."

"In fact, my appointment to work on Spirit Mine Island was also arranged by the Seventh Prince."

"Huh? Arrange what? With your abilities?"

Yu Changsheng looked surprised, his gaze unfriendly, and his tone disbelieving.

Liu Yun nodded with difficulty, swallowed hard, and said through gritted teeth, "Why not? You know this Spirit Mine Island produces a large amount of spirit stones every year. The profits and kickbacks are so great that they are tempting. I am the Seventh Holy Son's man, so he will naturally place his own people here. Although I keep a portion of the spirit stones every year, most of them are secretly given to the Seventh Holy Son. It is not something I can get my hands on."

"As for this approach, as long as it's not too excessive, with the prestige of the Seven Holy Sons, it's not a problem to handle it. The Holy Land turns a blind eye to it, after all, the Holy Sons themselves are members of the Holy Land."

"Is that all?" Yu Changsheng frowned, asking doubtfully.

"Besides that, I have another mission here," Liu Yun said through gritted teeth. Seeing that Yu Changsheng didn't fully respond, he hesitated for a moment before explaining:

"The more important reason I came here is to take advantage of the amazing spiritual energy of this spiritual mine and the blessed land to plant the Saint Liu Jing seedlings in the core of the mine and accelerate their growth."

"Once it matures, it will be offered to the Seven Saints to help their Golden-Eyed Inkhorn Beasts break through to the fifth stage, fulfilling their mission and gaining merit. This matter is very important to the Seven Saints. If you don't believe me, you can go down to the core of the Spirit Mine Island and experience it for yourself, and you will know that what I said is true."

After saying that, Liu Yun let out a long breath, his face still looking grim, but a hint of relief appeared on his face.

These things were secrets to him that no one else knew, but now, faced with life and death, he could find no other way to break the deadlock except to reveal his identity and make Yu Changsheng wary of the Seven Saints and thus not dare to touch him.

After all, in his view, even if Yu Changsheng was exceptionally strong and talented, the fact that he had been sent here by the Third Elder, essentially exiled, sent a signal to Liu Yun.

That is, Yu Changsheng himself did not have any powerful figures to back him up on the Sea Beast Heavenly Island. Therefore, he was not afraid to expose his identity as a demonic cultivator, only seeking to kill Yu Changsheng.

After all, he was confident that he could handle the situation well after killing this outer sect elder who had no background to rely on, and no one would cause trouble for him.

Since Yu Changsheng has already offended the Third Elder, he will certainly not offend the Seventh Son, whose power is no less than that of the Third Elder.

If Yu Changsheng were a smart man, he would naturally know what to do. After all, in addition to the prestige of the Seventh Holy Son and his influence in the Holy Land, the power of the Seventh Holy Son's own family should not be underestimated.

Liu Yun deliberately exposed his relationship with the Seventh Holy Son for this purpose: to let Yu Changsheng know that he was still useful to the Seventh Holy Son, and that killing him would inevitably attract the Seventh Holy Son's attention.

Thus, Yu Changsheng became wary of the Seventh Holy Son, and after weighing the pros and cons, spared his own life.

These thoughts flashed through Liu Yun's mind. He slowly exhaled, looking at Yu Changsheng with a hint of nervousness. His lips twitched as he added:

"If you kill me, the Holy Essence will not fall into the hands of the Seventh Holy Son, which will surely provoke his wrath. Yu Changsheng, you cannot bear that responsibility."

Upon hearing this, Yu Changsheng frowned slightly, looked at Liu Yun, his gaze darkened, and he sneered as he narrowed his eyes: "You're really interesting. Even if what you say is true, it's just a Saintly Essence. Since you can offer it to the Seventh Saint Son, why can't I?"

"Do you really think that once the Holy Essence falls into the hands of the Seventh Holy Son, you will still have much value?"

Liu Yun remained silent, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. He thought to himself, "Fortunately, if I can keep going like this, Yu Changsheng is indeed wary of the Seventh Holy Son and doesn't want to offend him. So I'm basically safe now."

Thinking to himself, Liu Yun forced a cold smile and said:

"The Holy Crystal has been planted somewhere in the core of the Spirit Mine Island and is hidden away. Although you can sense its presence, you cannot touch it without a specific magic seal. Forcibly capturing it will only cause the spiritual object to shatter and its spiritual power to be completely dissipated."

"At that time, the Seventh Holy Son will surely hate you even more and tear you to pieces. Besides, what do you think is the reason I dare to be so arrogant on Spirit Mine Island? I am involved in too many interests. If you mess with me, the result will not be good."

Liu Yun spoke coldly, his expression and tone returning to calm. Suppressing the tremor in his heart, he looked directly into Yu Changsheng's eyes and said, "Although you are very strong and your talent is outstanding, on Sea Beast Heavenly Island, you are just a drifting duckweed without support. Some important figures are not people you can afford to offend."

"If you know what's good for you, hurry up and let me go. I can guarantee that I will forgive and forget, and I can even promise you that I will share half of the profits from Spirit Mine Island with you."

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

"In addition, I will also introduce you to the Seven Holy Sons. At that time, even if the Third Elder blocks you, it will not be a problem for you to return to Shanghai Beast Heaven Island."

Liu Yun spoke with remarkable logic and clarity, his tone conveying a persuasive and enticing quality, a combination of threat and incentive. Even Yu Changsheng couldn't help but look at Liu Yun with new respect, raising an eyebrow and feigning deep thought.

Seeing this, Liu Yun felt even more relieved and continued, "We have no deep-seated hatred for each other. We are both cultivators, and our goal is the same: to attain immortality, isn't it?"

"Since that's the case, why not make peace? There's no need for a life-or-death struggle. I know your talent well, and it's a real pity to have it buried here. The Seventh Holy Son is also someone who cherishes talent. With my recommendation and his assistance, you will surely shine brightly in the future, and breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage is only a matter of time."

"Such a great choice is before you, I hope you will consider it carefully."

Liu Yun spoke slowly, his tone full of sincerity, not at all feigned.

Actually, what he said wasn't a big problem.

Even Yu Changsheng glanced at Liu Yun with surprise, then slowly shook his head and chuckled, saying:

"What you said makes sense, Manager Liu."

"Yes." Liu Yun's eyes lit up with joy. Suppressing his excitement and the pain from his injuries, he let out a long breath, his tone as gentle as possible, his expression sincere, and he said emotionally:

"I'm being honest, I truly admire your ability to defeat a demigod like me with your mid-stage Purple Mansion cultivation. Someone as outstanding as you wouldn't risk your future and path by making an enemy of the Seventh Holy Son. It would do you absolutely no good."

"You're a smart person, so I'm sure you know what to do."

What Liu Yun said was indeed what he was thinking. Regarding Yu Changsheng, no matter how much resentment he felt, he was also filled with astonishment and admiration.

After all, even with his demigod cultivation and willingness to sacrifice his life force, he was still defeated by Yu Changsheng, a cultivator in the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm.

In his view, with such combat power and Yu Changsheng's age, if he were on the Sea Beast Heavenly Island, he would be a well-known prodigy and a member of the order of disciples.

After all, even though Liu Yun hadn't had much contact with the disciples of the Sequence, based on his understanding of Wang Sheng, the Seventh Holy Son, he didn't think that Wang Sheng was much stronger than Yu Changsheng.

And this is because Wang Sheng's cultivation level has reached the peak of the Purple Mansion realm.

In contrast, Liu Yun unconsciously developed a fondness for Yu Changsheng's talent, and his words were quite sincere.

And so, to Liu Yun's expectant gaze, Yu Changsheng smiled.

"You're right."

Yu Changsheng nodded and grinned.

"call……"

Liu Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile had just appeared on his face when a pair of large hands suddenly grabbed his crown. Liu Yun's smile froze, and he stared at Yu Changsheng in astonishment.

"What are you going to do...?"

Liu Yun said with difficulty, a hint of fear showing in his eyes, and his body trembled slightly uncontrollably.

"Nothing much," Yu Changsheng said calmly. The next moment, his thoughts moved, and the Myriad Spirits Technique began to operate wildly. Along with his divine sense, Yu Changsheng's true spirit was included, and in a clever way, it suddenly surged into Liu Yun's mind.

"The Myriad Spirits Technique, Restoring Spirits."

Yu Changsheng spoke softly, and his divine soul power surged in. The Purple Mansion Gate, representing the divine soul, opened open and continuously provided power. Under the guidance of the Myriad Spirits Technique, Yu Changsheng's special true spirit successfully entered the depths of Liu Yun's sea of ​​consciousness and found his trembling, terrified true spirit.

Yu Changsheng's eyes flashed, and countless mysterious points of light surged from his true spirit, covering Liu Yun's true spirit.

Liu Yun's true spirit struggled anxiously for a moment, but to no avail. As the light spots completely covered his body, his expression suddenly became blank, and he fell into a daze.

In Yu Changsheng's perception, fragments of memories emerged in his mind. After skipping over the unimportant ones, Yu Changsheng's focus was on the Holy Crystal.

This method is like soul searching, but it is more advanced and goes a step further; it is a replication from the source.

It is also one of the unique features of the Myriad Spirits Technique as a Saint-level cultivation method.

Just like the Overlord's Technique from back then, it was also learned using this method. (End of this chapter)
