"Go! The seas are calm now, it's the perfect time to catch ice-scaled fish."

"Besides, we can lay low for a while, after all, he's a Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Heavenly Spirit Sect," Wu Qingshan sighed.

Chen Yi nodded slightly. To activate the blessing of the Celestial Venerable of Spiritual Treasure, they still needed the blood of the Ice Scale Fish Demon.

Upon seeing Chen Yi emerge from seclusion, Wu Qingshan immediately began preparing a meal with Wu Tingting.

After the last major battle, Wu Qingshan realized that Chen Yi was extraordinary.

Although his cultivation level was only at the sixth level of Qi Refining, he was able to cleanly and efficiently defeat the black-robed evil cultivator who was at the seventh level of Qi Refining.

Wu Qingshan and Wu Tingting treated Chen Yi with more politeness and respect.

Chen Yi lay on the cool chair, his body and mind naturally relaxing.

Now that he has recovered to his peak condition, the restrictions on his cultivation have loosened somewhat. Recalling his battles with Xue Qiang and Gu Changqing, he couldn't help but feel secretly fortunate.

If it weren't for my quick wit, I would probably be a corpse by now.

"Disciples of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, a prestigious and righteous sect, humph." Chen Yi sneered.

Xue Qiang was a Foundation Establishment cultivator and an inner disciple of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, but facing rogue cultivators like them, he would undoubtedly use them as bait.

Those who deserve to be killed should be killed, and those who deserve to be imprisoned should be imprisoned.

Chen Yi originally wanted to join the Heavenly Spirit Sect, and he always harbored a certain longing for it. Moreover, Master Zhou and Wu Yifeng treated him very well.

It seems I was lucky; in the cultivation world, strength is always the most important thing.

"It seems I need to break through as soon as possible and also prepare for Foundation Establishment as soon as possible," Chen Yi thought to himself.

At this moment, a refreshing fragrance permeates the air.

Wu Qingshan was simmering fish soup, while Wu Tingting was grilling fish on the side, using only the finest silver-whiskered black-scaled fish.

Chen Yi secluded himself for more than half a month, only consuming fasting pills.

The aroma of fish soup and grilled fish is so enticing that it makes me want to eat.

Wu Qingshan and his companion brought out the fish soup and grilled fish, and then steamed a pot of rice using the spirit rice given by Chen Yi.

Chen Yi strode forward and immediately began to devour the food.

A moment later, the three of them devoured all the food on the table.

Chen Yi put down his chopsticks, let out a burp, and said with a long sigh:

"Phew, this is delicious."

Wu Qingshan laughed and replied:

"The flesh of the silver-bearded black-scaled fish is exceptionally delicious and contains a trace of mystical water essence."

"I'll give you all the silverfin blackfish I caught this time. I have my preservation method and special storage bags, which can keep them fresh for a long time."

Chen Yi wanted to refuse, but Wu Qingshan was very firm, so he couldn't refuse him.

After resting for a while, Wu Qingshan piloted the flying boat, carrying the two of them, heading north.

Chen Yi sat upright on the deck, constantly scanning the surrounding sea, remaining vigilant about his surroundings.

He always felt that the matter between Xue Qiang and Gu Changqing would not end so easily.

As a Foundation Establishment cultivator, Xue Qiang possesses numerous magical artifacts, elixirs, and talismanic treasures. Ordinary inner disciples certainly do not have such a substantial fortune.

Chen Yi collected the storage bags of Gu Changqing, Xue Qiang, and the other black-robed evil cultivators, but hasn't had time to check them yet.

What concerned him most was the wealth of the Golden Core cultivator, which must be extremely abundant.

The group flew forward for two days straight, resting on the Dharma Boat during the rest of the day.

At dawn, Wu Qingshan piloted his flying boat to the skies above a sea area.

Chen Yi stood up and immediately sensed that there were many spirit fish underwater, and that a chill was rising from the surface of the sea.

"Hey Chen, we've arrived."

"The ice-scaled fish are foraging here, let's strike while the iron is hot and start fishing," Wu Qingshan said, rubbing his hands together eagerly.

A hint of joy flashed in Chen Yi's eyes; the final offering to activate the Spirit Treasure Celestial Venerable was right before him.

He, Wu Qingshan, and Wu Tingting immediately got busy, scattering bait to catch the fish.

Before long, a large group of ice-scaled fish gathered under the fishing net.

"Let's close the net!" Wu Qingshan shouted, immediately instructing the two men to begin closing the net.

Chen Yi secured one end of the fishing net to the flying boat, and Wu Qingshan and Wu Tingting immediately began to haul in the net.

Before long, many ice-scaled fish were scooped up from the fishing net, and Wu Qingshan immediately put them into a specially made storage bag.

"Old Wu, could you please collect some demon blood from the Icescale Fish for me?" Chen Yi said.

Wu Qingshan naturally wouldn't refuse, and immediately began to cut open several ice-scaled fish to collect blood into the bottle.

The Ice Scale Fish is light blue all over, with wisps of cold air constantly spreading from its body, and its demon blood is also light blue.

As Wu Qingshan collected the blood, he said:

"There's a chance that these Ice Scale Fish will produce Mystic Water Pearls inside their bodies. I'll treat them one by one when we get back to Lingxi Fang."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi's face lit up with joy. With enough Xuan Shui Pearls or Jade Dew Essence, his future cultivation would be much smoother.

After receiving two bottles of demon blood, Wu Qingshan piloted his flying boat and left the area.

After taking out a map to determine the direction, he immediately headed towards Lingxifang.

They have been away from Lingxifang for over a month now, and it's time to return. Chen Yi felt he was about to break through to the next level and wanted to immediately return to his own courtyard to cultivate in seclusion.

Wu Qingshan drove the flying boat day and night with all his might, and three days later he finally saw the coast of the East China Sea.

"Finally back!" Chen Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they were away for a month, the hardships they endured felt like an eternity.

Wu Qingshan found a secluded spot and quietly went ashore. After disguising themselves, the three headed straight for Lingxifang.

Half a day passed in the blink of an eye.

As Chen Yi and his two companions passed through the city wall gate of Lingxifang, a sense of relief appeared on their faces. Now that they had returned to Lingxifang, they could say they were safely home.

"Mr. Wu, thank you for taking care of me these past few days," Chen Yi said, clasping his hands in a respectful gesture.

Wu Qingshan waved his hand and said:

"Young Chen, if it weren't for your help, my grandfather and I would probably be dead by now."

"If you ever need my help in the future, just let me know."

Chen Yi nodded emphatically, and he and Wu Qingshan walked straight towards their own courtyard.

A moment later, the three of them returned to their respective courtyards.

Chen Yi pushed open the door, a sense of déjà vu rising in his heart.

He did not activate the blessing of the Heavenly Venerable Lingbao first, nor did he check the storage bags of Xue Qiang and the others. Instead, he returned to his room and fell into a deep sleep.

After a day and a night, Chen Yi's door slowly opened.

At this moment, the sun is rising.

The gentle sunlight streamed down, illuminating Chen Yi.

Chen Yi stretched out a big yawn, and a slight cracking sound came from his bones.

Now that he has recovered to his peak condition and obtained many Xuan Shui Pearls and Jade Dew Essence, it is time for him to begin his secluded cultivation and breakthrough.

Chen Yi began his seclusion with the prepared pills, spiritual golden pearls, mysterious water pearls, and jade dew essence.

……

At this moment, on a small island in the East Sea Islands, many black-robed cultivators appeared.

Gu Xinghan held the compass, his expression becoming more solemn.

"This is it. My aunt's presence disappeared on this island."

Some time ago, Gu Changqing led several of his men to an island in the East China Sea to search for a map of Qianyuan Valley.

Legend has it that a Golden Core cultivator from Lingxifang possessed a map of Qianyuan Valley. However, he has already passed away, and his treasures have been scattered across the islands of the East Sea.

"Could it be that Aunt has already passed away?!" Gu Changqing looked somewhat surprised and doubtful.
