Nine Transformations of the True Spirit

Three days later, Chen Yuan, Yuan Lang and Li Luo left their residence and walked out of the Blood Island Market.

There were many cultivators in the market, and the lowest level of cultivation was the tenth level of Qi Refining. The most were foundation-building cultivators, accounting for more than 80%. There were very few Jindan cultivators, but they were several times more than other places.

After all, the Blood Island was in the Ink Sea. Although it was only on the edge of the Ink Sea, there were monsters everywhere around it. If you want to come here, your cultivation level will not be too low, otherwise you will be buried in the mouths of monsters along the way.

After leaving the market where flying was prohibited, the three of them drove the escape light, identified the direction, and flew west.

Chen Yuan followed Li Luo and Yuan Lang, spreading his spiritual sense, and knew everything within a radius of 20 miles.

Under the sea, countless sea creatures swam back and forth, and there were many first-level monsters lurking among them. There were even two second-level monsters that were rampant and devoured the weak sea creatures.

Chen Yuan was not interested in these low-level monsters. No one would hunt them specifically except for Qi-refining monks.

Monks hunt monsters for monster pills and monster materials. They will not waste time on low-level monsters. On the contrary, they will intentionally leave first-level monsters so that high-level monsters can continue to be born in the future.

There are many small islands and even micro-islands outside the Blood Island, where monks also gather.

The Blood Island Market is controlled by the three major sects. Although it is not exclusive, there are many rules. Anyone who wants to buy a shop in the market must pay a lot of spirit stones.

Many small sects and families want to save this money and simply occupy the islands themselves to attract casual cultivators with meager wealth to trade here.

However, these islands are not protected by Yuanying monks. Every time a beast tide comes, they will definitely be breached.

As far as Chen Yuan can see, the buildings in the island market are very simple, and many of them are even randomly built of stones, which are more dilapidated than ordinary houses.

However, these islands are still protected by formations. Chen Yuan and his two companions took the initiative to avoid them and would not use their spiritual sense to explore them, so as not to cause misunderstandings.

Chen Yuan and his two companions were not slow in their flight speed. They had traveled a thousand miles in two days. The further they flew westward, the fewer islands occupied by cultivators, until they became deserted islands inhabited by monsters.

There were the most sea monsters in the Ink Sea, but there were also many bird monsters. They could not survive in the sea and could only occupy islands.

This place was only a thousand miles away from the Blood Island. Most of the bird monsters inhabiting this place were second- and third-level monsters. There were very few fourth-level monsters, and there was no fifth-level monster at all.

Jindan cultivators looked down on these low-level monsters, but foundation-building cultivators would not let them go. Chen Yuan and his two companions had encountered several foundation-building cultivators hunting monsters along the way. Generally, several people joined forces, and few people acted alone.

Cultivators could control magic weapons and spiritual tools, and could also use talismans to fight against enemies. They naturally had the upper hand when facing monsters of the same level.

However, due to the special environment of the sea, the monsters that can occupy the islands are either strong in blood or in groups.

The weak monsters were eliminated, and these foundation-building cultivators had to join hands, otherwise they would easily die in the mouth of monsters.

Starting from the fifth-level monsters, the demon pills transformed, further stimulated the blood in the body, and could use the innate magical powers. In addition, the demon body was infinitely powerful, and even stronger than the cultivators of the same level, forcing the Jindan cultivators to join hands. Only Wang Lin, who was so powerful, dared to go alone.

Chen Yuan had never been to the Ink Sea. These were all said by Yuan Lang on the way. He told Chen Yuan about the situation in the Ink Sea in detail, so that Chen Yuan had a deep understanding of the Ink Sea.

In addition to the conversation, the three of them were five miles apart when they flew away, expanding the coverage of their spiritual consciousness and searching for the traces of the fifth-level monsters.

However, this place is not far from the Blood Island, and has been searched countless times by other cultivators. The fifth-level monsters have long been extinct, and in the end nothing was found.

The three flew for a few more days, and did not encounter other cultivators. What they saw was the vast water waves, the vast ocean, and even the few islands.

They could only recover their true essence on the coral reefs along the way, and then continue to fly and look for level 5 monsters.

Yuanlang and Li Luo were experienced in hunting monsters. According to the habits of some level 5 monsters, they always observed the undercurrents in the sea, the number of low-level monsters, and the changes in the celestial phenomena.

According to the two, although the sea is boundless, hunting monsters is not like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Some monsters like thunderstorms, and some monsters prefer to feed on a certain type of fish. As long as you understand the habits of monsters, the success rate of hunting monsters can be increased a lot.

Chen Yuan knew nothing about this. He did get a lot of experience in hunting monsters in the Rocky Sea from True Man Qingyou, but it was useless in the Ink Sea. He could only follow the two, remember Yuanlang's words, and silently absorb experience.

But these experiences did not seem to be of much use. After two months, the three did not encounter a level 5 monster.

Yuan Lang had no intention of imparting his experience to Chen Yuan. The three of them just hurried on their way silently, spreading their spiritual consciousness all the time to search for traces of monsters under the sea.

At this time, they had already gone deep into the Mohai Sea, and their speed of escape was much slower than before, not only to save their true energy, but also to carefully check the surroundings so as not to miss those monsters that were good at hiding their tracks.

On this day, an island finally appeared in the distance. The three of them all brightened up, changed their direction slightly, and flew towards the island.

They had been flying for three consecutive days and nights, and their true energy consumption was not great, but they had to spread their spiritual consciousness all the time to search for traces of monsters, which made them quite tired mentally.

The three of them dropped their escape light from a height of hundreds of feet, and flew for a while, only a dozen miles away from the island.

Chen Yuan's spiritual consciousness swept over the island, his eyes changed slightly, but his face remained calm.

The three flew for a while and came within ten miles of the island. Yuan Lang and Li Luo suddenly showed joy and sped up their flight, followed by Chen Yuan.

This is a miniature island with a radius of less than ten miles. There are many coconut trees on the shore. Under the sea breeze, the broad leaves sway in the wind, and the whole tree shakes violently.

In the center of the island is a bare stone mountain, about thirty feet high. On the top of the stone mountain is a flat land of about an acre, covered with flowers and plants.

The three landed on this grass and stared at a small tree only five feet high in the middle of the grass.

This tree is only as thick as a bowl, not even as tall as a person, with sparse branches and leaves, and three peach-like light blue fruits hanging on it. The color is very strange and glows with a faint spiritual light.

Yuan Lang smiled and said, "We are so lucky to have encountered a water ape fruit that is about to mature!"

Chen Yuan frowned and said, "What is this water ape fruit? Is it related to the water ape?"

The water ape is a water monster with a very strong bloodline. The inheritance of old man Dan Jue includes water ape monster Yuandan, from level 5 to level 8.

He bought several spiritual grass illustrations in Hanxing City, as well as the memory of Master Qingyou, and was familiar with Yuqinghai spiritual grass, but he had never heard of this water ape fruit, and was very surprised.

Li Luo also smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Chen, you don't know that this water ape fruit is a spiritual fruit unique to the monster race, and is most loved by water apes. When this fruit matures, the fragrance will spread thousands of miles away. As long as there are water apes in this range, they will definitely come here following the fragrance!"

The rest will be made up today.
