Chapter 714 - 641: Unexpected Gain
"I will."
Shen Xuan said solemnly, "This Starlight Island is my place of cultivation, with my family and friends. There’s also Zi Ning. I will return to the island on time."
Shen Xuan, along with Li Ruyi and Shen Yucheng, bid farewell to the Purple Yunting Tree.
They walked far out.
The demon consciousness of the Purple Yunting Tree was still attached to Shen Xuan’s body.
...
"Alright. Yucheng, you return to Jade Valley first and prepare to take over matters of the Purple Essence Realm."
After sending Shen Yucheng off, Shen Xuan and Li Ruyi returned to the Cold Ice Cave, entering a secret room alone.
"Fellow Daoist Li, the matter you asked me to investigate, I’ve already investigated clearly."
Shen Xuan told Li Ruyi two pieces of news.
One good, one bad.
The good news is, her flesh body is preserved intact, specifically placed in a crystal ice coffin, and can be fully reactivated.
The bad news is, the flesh body is in the hands of Liu Qianshan, the Tier Three Upper Grade Pill Master of the Danxia Sect, and it’s difficult to retrieve.
The Danxia Sect is one of the five sects of Yan Country, and quite powerful.
Comparable to the leading Profound Celestial Sect of Song Country.
Liu Qianshan rarely goes out, residing in the headquarters of Danxia Sect for alchemy practice.
According to the information Shen Xuan gathered, Liu Qianshan’s lifespan is running out.
"Fellow Daoist Li, to be frank, I’m leaving the island this time to seek a breakthrough opportunity."
Shen Xuan’s plan is to go to the Spirit Stream Secret Realm in Yue Country to collect Primordial True Water.
With Primordial True Water, Shen Xuan can confidently break through to the middle stage of the Golden Core.
Then refine the essence blood and reverse scales of the Black Water Demon Flood Dragon Demon Core, using the Nine Revolutions True Spirit Technique to swiftly enter the Divine Power Realm.
"Once I break through, I will go to Yan Country’s Danxia Sect with you."
"No matter what, I will find a way to help you retrieve your flesh body."
Shen Xuan made a promise.
Over the years, Li Ruyi has diligently practiced alchemy and guarded the island for him.
This time, Shen Xuan will not return for ten years after leaving the island.
Li Ruyi will have to work hard again to secretly support Qin Yuehan.
Otherwise, with only Qin Yuehan and those Foundation Establishment Realm subordinates, Shen Xuan would indeed be a bit uneasy.
Li Ruyi looked at Shen Xuan with some hesitation.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, there are two Nascent Soul True Monarchs and over thirty Golden Core True Masters in the Danxia Sect. Just the two of us dealing with Liu Qianshan—won’t that be a bit reckless?"
Shen Xuan smiled.
"Fellow Daoist Li, don’t worry. I have a plan. Forcibly snatching is definitely not feasible. The clever will have their own ways."
Seeing Shen Xuan’s confidence, Li Ruyi felt a bit more hopeful.
"Ruyi wishes Fellow Daoist Shen to find the opportunity, break through smoothly, and return to the island with a full harvest."
"Definitely!"
Leaving the secret room, Shen Xuan personally saw Li Ruyi off.
In the days that followed.
Shen Xuan indulged in intimate moments with Qin Yuehan and Shangguan Yan’Er, living a carefree life.
On the other hand.
He secretly paid attention to the exchanges between Li Ruyi, Shen Yucheng, and the Purple Yunting Tree.
Guiding Shi Yulong and Shi Yufeng in their cultivation and alchemy.
Todays’ Starlight Island is increasingly prosperous.
After True Master Profound Ice defeated the Demon Lord Ji Le in magical combat, his fame grew even stronger.
Although some small-minded people thought of taking advantage of the chaos on Starlight Island.
Under the severe legal threats of Starlight Island, they dared not act rashly.
Any cultivator violating the laws of Starlight Island, regardless of origin, is strictly punished.
Registered cultivators on Starlight Island cooperate extremely well with the Law Enforcement Team.
This also makes those Tribulation Cultivators, Evil Cultivators, and Demon Cultivators dare not commit crimes on Starlight Island.
With such rapid development, the Spirit Vein’s grade has improved, Spiritual Qi is purified, and various raw material processing industries are thriving, naturally attracting some people’s secret coveting within the Profound Celestial Sect.
Shen Xuan is well aware of this.
However, as long as he remains unharmed.
The Profound Celestial Sect has no reason to reclaim Starlight Island.
Although there’s a force stirring trouble behind the scenes, it’s unable to shake the foundation of Starlight Island.
Shen Xuan personally intervened.
Expelling some loose cultivators with unclear backgrounds and ulterior motives from Starlight Island.
Most of these are Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
After leaving Starlight Island, they usually end up dead.
That hidden force understands Shen Xuan’s warning and temporarily quiets down.
Thus, Starlight Island becomes much more tranquil.
"It was indeed the Profound Celestial Sect stirring things up in the background."
"The soul-searching information didn’t reveal the mastermind’s name, but almost certainly involves True Master Xuan Xiang."
Shen Xuan spent two carefree months in the Cold Ice Cave.
Seeing everything on Starlight Island functioning normally and orderly.
He briefly told Qin Yuehan and Li Ruyi, and under the cover of night, quietly left Starlight Island alone.
This time, his goal was clear.
To go to Yue Country, support the Fire Cloud Sect remnants in their revival, and seek the Primordial True Water in the Spirit Stream Secret Realm.
