Chapter 1266
Harvest
Half a month later.
The desolate sea area where Xinghai Pavilion fought with the sea dragon clan is called “Xingjiao Sea Area”.
Somewhere deep under the sea.
There was a stream of light constantly passing by.
Finally, it stopped at a sea area near "Xinghai Island", the base of Xinghai Pavilion in this sea area.
And its true form also appeared, which turned out to be a large flying boat at least a hundred feet long.
There were monks everywhere and even a giant red crab.
But strangely enough, it was trapped by a colorful stream of water.
In addition, there are some quiet rooms for rest inside this flying boat.
Now, inside a quiet room.
"This fourth-level mid-grade red claw spiritual treasure is really ordinary and of no use to me. But I can give it to my wife and others in the future."
"But this treasure armor is not bad. Not only is it of the highest grade of the fourth-grade upper grade, but it is also of excellent quality. The most important thing is that it is a defensive spiritual treasure that can be used to save lives."
Ling Pengyun thought secretly as he looked at the red claws magic treasure and the red armor magic treasure that he had snatched from the red crab demon king.
At this moment, on the deck of the flying boat, the red crab demon king who was bound by the Five Elements River saw that the Star Island was not far away and estimated that a Nascent Soul cultivator could cross it in a few breaths. This made him extremely distressed and he complained immediately.
"Fellow Daoist, this transaction location is a bit too... that! It's nearby is your Xinghai Pavilion's Xinghai Island, where powerful people run rampant."
“By then, even if my people gave me resources to redeem me, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to survive for long.”
Ling Pengyun threatened.
"If I don't trade here, I'm afraid I'll be the one who dies."
"And as long as the resources your people send are good, I will send you out of my Xinghai Island area."
"Also, don't talk so much."
"Tell your people to hurry up. I am short on time. I still need to find other demon kings or low-level demon beasts to kill. If you delay too long, I am too lazy to wait for your ransom."
Using the true meaning gained from comprehending the Five Elements and the River of Hundred Treasures to isolate their means of communication is only the first safe step.
Only when we trade in the Xinghai Realm, the temporary base of Xinghai Pavilion, can we be truly safe.
By then, if other demon kings of the sea dragon clan come to rescue the red crab demon king, or if they come for other reasons, all can be resolved well.
The red crab demon king couldn't help but shudder after hearing Ling Pengyun's words.
If the words of killing the Demon King were said by an ordinary Nascent Soul, the Red Crab Demon King would surely despise him.
But Ling Pengyun is different. He has extraordinary means and really has the ability to do so.
For this reason, it couldn't help but mutter to itself.
"He is such an evil star. I don't know which unlucky fellow will be targeted by him like me in the future."
At the same time, in order to prevent Ling Pengyun from really taking action, it immediately spoke.
"The spiritual objects my people brought this time will surely satisfy you, fellow Taoist..."
Seeing this, Ling Pengyun said coldly.
"Hopefully."
After waiting for a few more days, the so-called clansmen of the Red Crab Demon King finally arrived.
It was a female crab, and its cultivation level was as high as the Pseudo-Infant Realm. It was estimated that it had attempted to reach the Nascent Soul stage before, but failed. In the end, it became a rather special existence, stronger than an ordinary Golden Core, but weaker than a Nascent Soul.
In addition, he is also very good at the intermediate level of breath-concealing magical power, and it is estimated that he has comprehended it to the perfect level.
It is estimated that it is difficult for ordinary Nascent Souls to find its trace.
Perhaps it is for this reason that the female crab has the ability to cross the battlefield and arrive here.
Otherwise, with his strength, he would have been killed countless times.
The resources it brought were indeed not cheap, and basically all the spiritual objects that the Red Crab Demon King had promised were there.
The most valuable of these is naturally the Fire Jade Spirit Fruit Tree that can produce second-rate Nascent Soul spiritual creatures.
Ling Pengyun also attached great importance to it and immediately looked at it carefully.
"The transplantation technique is quite good. It didn't damage the tree's roots much. Its grade is indeed at the Quasi-Fourth Grade, but judging by its strong foundation, it must have tried to reach the Nascent Soul stage in the past but failed. It even has some injuries to its origin."
"But with the help of my spiritual plant's magic, I think the tree will be able to recover in no time."
"By then, with the help of the benefits brought by the last Nascent Soul breakthrough, it is estimated that the probability of entering the Nascent Soul realm will increase by several times. If you think about it carefully, the last failure is not a bad thing."
"And if this tree can really advance to the fourth stage, the foundation of the family will be more stable."
A hint of longing emerged in Ling Pengyun's brows.
The fourth-level Fire Jade Spirit Fruit Tree can produce Nascent Soul spiritual objects that are enough to increase the cultivator's chance of reaching the Nascent Soul stage by 10%.
However, this kind of spiritual object does not conflict with the family's special Nascent Soul spiritual object, the Sun and Moon Crystals, which can be condensed by absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon through various formations.
However, the final condensation of the Nascent Soul will be dominated by the sun and moon crystals.
In this way, the help of the two is enough to increase the cultivator's probability of entering the Nascent Soul stage by 40%.
The benefits are extraordinary.
The Nascent Soul cultivator is a great help to Ling Pengyun.
Putting aside his distracting thoughts, Ling Pengyun set his sights on the second most valuable fourth-tier spiritual fruit tree for cultivation, the "Red Flame Xuanyuan Fruit Tree", among the many benefits.
"As for the aptitude of this tree, it has reached the extreme. It is estimated that it will be difficult to enter a higher realm in the future."
"However, it is already good that it can enter the fourth level. After all, the fourth-level low-grade spiritual fruit it produces is already good."
Although the Fire Jade Spirit Fruit only contains pure fire spiritual power and has a single effect, this type of fruit is relatively stronger than ordinary spiritual fruits of the same level and can be said to be a great tonic.
Ling Pengyun is currently practicing the Five Elements, so this fruit is actually helpful to Ling Pengyun.
And, perhaps because the female crab was afraid that the benefits would not be enough to exchange for her husband, the fruits on the tree were not touched at all.
And now, there are sixteen fourth-grade low-quality spiritual fruits on this tree, which will mature in just ten years.
There are even more first, second, and third level spiritual fruits.
In addition, among the resources brought by the female crab this time, there are quite a few fourth-level Red Flame Mysterious Yuan Fruits, which were obviously saved by this clan before.
For this, Ling Pengyun was extremely satisfied.
"Those sixteen fourth-order low-grade spiritual fruits only need ten years to mature. If they are taken care of by me at the level of fourth-order mid-grade spiritual plants, I estimate that those spiritual fruits will all mature in less than one or two years."
"If we add the other batch of Red Flame Mysterious Origin Fruits that have already matured, it will completely make up for my lack of resources."
"And this tree can benefit the family in the future."
"Even after careful calculation, this should be the first fourth-level spiritual fruit tree in the family."
Although in the past few years he had collected a large number of fourth-level Juyuan grass and other spiritual fruits through various means, which enabled him to enter the realm of Yuanying perfection in a short period of time.
But some time ago, in order to ask Master Yun Chi of the Xingqi Sect, one of the nine sects of Xinghai Pavilion, to help him refine a small flying boat with eighteen fourth-level "Qingfeng Lingzhu" and fourth-level upper-grade Qingming Baoji Iron, he spent a full thirty fourth-level Juyuan Grasses. As a result, he had a small gap in cultivation resources.
But with the sixteen fourth-grade lower-grade Red Flame Xuanyuan fruits that are about to mature, as well as other spiritual fruits, the situation is different. Their effects are almost the same as those of the Juyuan grass.
For this reason, they are more than enough to fill that gap.
As for the fact that the family does not have a fourth-level spiritual fruit tree, it is because it is too difficult for a spiritual tree to enter the fourth-level realm. This is different from spiritual plants such as spiritual medicine that can impact the Nascent Soul stage.
If a spirit tree wants to enter the Nascent Soul stage, it needs to rely on the vast Jiamu spiritual power to condense a Jiamu Nascent Soul, which is actually no different from a cultivator entering the Nascent Soul stage.
As for ordinary spiritual medicines entering the Nascent Soul stage, it is relatively simple. You just need to simply strengthen the Yi Wood Crystal Core.
But in contrast, because their crystal cores are not as good as the Jiamu Yuanying of the Yuanying spirit tree, the strength of the spiritual medicine is particularly low. Even if there are hundreds or thousands of spiritual medicines, they are no match for the Yuanying cultivators of the same level.
Of course, some special elixirs are excluded.
But spiritual trees are different. Their strength is not much weaker than that of cultivators. Some special spiritual trees are even stronger than cultivators of the same level.
For example, Ling Pengyun's third natal spiritual plant, the Wanyuxuefei Tree, is more evil in nature and has an extraordinary physique, so it can have no problem fighting against enemies of higher levels.
Another factor is that the family’s development time is too short.
Therefore, this embarrassing situation arose.
If the Ling family could be given some more time, based on the power of Ling family's new Nascent Soul method, the Sun and Moon Nascent Soul method, the family would be able to cultivate fourth-order spirit fruit trees in large quantities.
Afterwards, Ling Pengyun found another Nascent Soul spiritual object from among a large number of spiritual objects, but its grade was only at the quasi-fourth level, so it could only be considered second-rate and could only increase the cultivator's probability of reaching the Nascent Soul stage by half.
It's nothing more than winning or losing.
Moreover, if this thing were placed in the current Xinghai Pavilion, it would require at least 1.5 million military merits.
This amount of money can only be earned by killing two or three Nascent Soul Demon Kings.
For this reason, this transaction alone is not a loss.
What's more, the female crab also brought the Fire Jade Spirit Fruit Tree and the Red Flame Mysterious Yuan Tree, as well as many other quasi-fourth-level or fourth-level spiritual objects.
After careful calculation, the total value of this batch of spiritual objects is as high as tens of millions of military merits.
"Although the tribe behind the Crimson Crab Monster King has been developing for tens of thousands of years and has a strong foundation, its tribe has never been strong. It is estimated that it is not easy for the tribe behind it to gather such a large foundation this time. It is even possible that they have really brought all the foundation of their tribe here."
"And this is a good deal for me, and it makes me rich."
"This is much more profitable than risking your life to kill monsters."
Ling Pengyun immediately fell in love with the matter of moving and getting ransom.
But he doesn't plan to continue doing this.
It is extremely difficult to capture the demon king alive.
If the Red Crab Demon King wasn't so timid, it would have been difficult for him to accomplish this task.
What’s more, it is even more difficult to get the demon tribe to pay the ransom.
After all, there are few demon tribes that can be as generous as the Crimson Crab Clan in paying the ransom.
But for the red crab clan, this is really a helpless move.
After all, the Crimson Crab Demon King is the only demon king of this clan. If something happens to him, the strength of the Crimson Crab clan will inevitably be greatly reduced.
What's more, now is the time of world-destroying chaos.
By then, there is a possibility that the entire clan will be in danger of being exterminated.
In addition, the Crimson Crab Demon King is the most talented and powerful person in the Crimson Crab clan in the past tens of thousands of years. Therefore, he has extremely strong dominance over the Crimson Crab clan. Even now, most of the high-level members of the Crimson Crab clan are his direct relatives.
For example, the female crab is nominally the great elder of the red crab clan, but in fact she is its companion.
Under these circumstances, the Crimson Crab Clan had to empty their family assets.
Otherwise, even if we change to another demon clan like the Crimson Crab Clan, which has only one Nascent Soul Demon King in charge, it would probably be difficult to get them to pay the ransom.
"Fellow Daoist, are you satisfied with these spiritual objects?"
At this time, the red crab demon king on the side saw Ling Pengyun's happy look and asked hurriedly.
"nature."
Ling Pengyun nodded, and then he said.
"Don't worry, I will fulfill what I promised you before."
After saying that, he controlled the Yunqian No. 2 flying boat under his feet and left the waters near Xinghai Island. He then sent the red crab demon king and the female crab that delivered the spiritual object to the sea dragon clan’s base in this sea area.
Once the matter was settled, he turned around and left to avoid any trouble.
When the Red Crab Demon King who had escaped the disaster saw Ling Pengyun really leave, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh and secretly rejoiced.
"Fortunately, I surrendered quickly, otherwise I would be dead this time."
"But the ransom this time has consumed most of our clan's resources."
"While I am alive, I may not have much impact on the tribe, but when my remaining 2,000 years of life are exhausted, the tribe will surely be in trouble."
"And my future path will definitely be difficult."
Thinking of this, it couldn't help but feel sad again.
Judging from the remaining resources of the ethnic group behind them, it would be difficult to assist a new member of the tribe to reach the Nascent Soul stage within the remaining two thousand years.
By then, how could the Crimson Crab Clan, a Nascent Soul demon clan, survive in the world?
Moreover, they are a demon clan that has existed for tens of thousands of years, so their reputation is enormous.
On the other hand, if there is not enough strength to deter others, this reputation will become a disaster.
Although the Crimson Crab Clan is a branch of the Sea Dragon Clan, there are many branches within the Sea Dragon Clan, and the relationships between them are mixed.
In addition, it has extraordinary potential. In its early years, it condensed a Nascent Soul that was infinitely close to superior quality. For this reason, the Nascent Soul greatly enhanced it, and it also has the hope of entering the late Nascent Soul stage in the future.
After thinking about it carefully, the Red Crab Demon King couldn't help but think of what the main line of the Sea Dragon Clan said during the world-destroying chaos: killing righteous monks would gain military merits, and the merits of war could be exchanged for spiritual objects.
Obviously, the Sea Dragon Clan, like the Xinghai Pavilion, wanted to use this method to motivate the monks or monsters under their command to fight against the world-destroying chaos.
"If this battle can achieve something, it will definitely be helpful to me and the future of our clan."
“But now all the spiritual treasures I have have been snatched away, and I don’t have any powerful means at all. If I were to fight against the enemy, I would definitely be at a disadvantage. Moreover, the Nascent Souls of Xinghai Pavilion are all very powerful, so I must not provoke them.”
“If you think about it this way, the only way out is the Nascent Souls with weak inheritance in the Boundless Sea Cultivation World.”
"If I can get one or two, I can snatch their spiritual treasures..."
Thinking of this, the crab couldn't help but feel a little bit of anticipation.
Although the main forces of the Sea Dragon Clan and the Star Sea Pavilion were fighting in this desolate sea area, it was to avoid hurting the ordinary righteous forces and demon forces in the boundless sea.
However, there is no clear rule between the two major forces, and neither side can interfere in the battle between ordinary forces.
