Chapter 1315: Chapter 443: Old Friends Meet Again; Stage 4 Serpent Appears! [Seeking Monthly Pass]
"Master, he was able to recognize you!"
In the sea of consciousness of Ji Yuan, Tu Yue said excitedly.
Although Ji Yuan was also a bit surprised, it was still within his expectations... The perception between the PWoang Divine Eyes was far more formidable than I had imagined; no wonder my master once told me to stay away from people of the Purple-eyed Race when walking in the mortal world.
Now, the Ice and Fire Elder, who had only a trace of a shadow earlier, was able to perceive this familiar aura from me.
Of course, it’s also possible that the PWoang Divine Eyes between him and me are inherently the same, which is why he can sense it.
Thoughts flashed through Ji Yuan’s mind.
After pondering for a moment, he ultimately neither nodded nor shook his head, only changed the subject.
"How did you know that there is a Cloud Sea Flood Dragon Pearl here?"
The Ice and Fire Elder upon hearing this, did not inquire further but replied truthfully, "I was always on the Jiyuan Continent before, and the message about the appearance of the Cloud Sea Flood Dragon Pearl here was relayed to me by someone sent by Luo Zheng. I hurried back immediately after receiving the news."
"Luo Zheng..."
Ji Yuan furrowed his brows, "In the Cangluo Continent, it seems there has been no mention of such a person before, did he come over from Shangxi as well?"
"Exactly."
The Ice and Fire Elder nodded, "He is very powerful, having cultivated on Qingwu Island in Shangxi for a long time. Only when the Demon Dao from Shangxi invaded, he came over as well."
"So, the number of cultivators in the current Cangluo Continent has indeed increased significantly, even the number of those at the peak of Core Formation has grown."
This would have been impossible previously.
Otherwise, the Ice and Fire Elder could not have made a name for himself with just a late-stage Core Formation cultivation back then.
"Indeed, but some have come from the Jiyuan Continent as well, like Miaolei Zhenren."
Cangluo Continent people venture into Jiyuan Continent in search of opportunities, just as people from there do here.
The Ice and Fire Elder is a case in point... Ji Yuan looked at the old man before him, not expecting the Ice and Fire Elder to still be alive after over a century.
He had already lived for hundreds of years when he reached the peak of Core Formation back then.
Thus, like the Old Demon of the Blue Sea said, among those at the peak of Core Formation present earlier, the Ice and Fire Elder had the shortest lifespan.
"What about the current situation in the Cangluo Continent?"
Ji Yuan changed the subject again, "I heard that a new sect has emerged here, called... Dongyu Mountain, is it correct?"
"Exactly."
The Ice and Fire Elder first nodded instinctively, then arranged his words before saying:
"The current Cangluo Continent is somewhat different from before, notably Blood Luo Mountain, Demon Flame Palace, and White Bone Sect, these three Demon Dao forces still exist and have grown even stronger."
"Is Blood Luo Mountain still the strongest?"
Ji Yuan asked.
"Indeed, Blood Luo Mountain has a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, the Blood Luo King, and two mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, Blood Lady and the Blood Mountain Ancestor. It is said there are also a couple of early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators... it is undoubtedly the foremost force in the Cangluo Continent."
"The other two are slightly weaker, and apart from them, Dongyu Mountain has risen as well. This force is essentially an alliance supported by the Nascent Soul Loose Cultivators from both righteous and demonic paths."
The Ice and Fire Elder deliberated before speaking.
"Like Master Tu Yao, who just tried to snatch the Cloud Sea Flood Dragon Pearl of the elder, is a Supreme Elder of Dongyu Mountain. Others include the former Supreme Elder of Corpse Transporting Mountain, Lu Corpse, Independent Nascent Soul Silent Extinction Zhenren, and Old Demon Gangfeng."
After listening to the Ice and Fire Elder, Ji Yuan stroked his chin and slightly nodded.
"A sect with four Nascent Souls is indeed quite formidable."
"But unfortunately, they are all only early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, without a single mid-stage Nascent Soul, so Dongyu Mountain disciples still have to bow and scrape before the three major Demon Dao sects."
The Ice and Fire Elder sighed heavily.
"Although a teleportation array to Jiyuan Continent was opened, the exorbitant teleportation costs were discouraging to most low-tier cultivators, Cangluo... it’s difficult."
This is truly the situation.
After hearing this, Ji Yuan was also resigned.
However...
"Back when the righteous and demonic war occurred, wasn’t it rumored that Lu Corpse was slain by the Ten Spirits Ancestor?"
Ji Yuan asked in puzzlement.
Ten Spirits Ancestor, who was a Supreme Elder of Spirit Control Sect, one of the six Immortal Sects of original Shang Dong, defected to the Demon Dao of Shangxi when the righteous and demonic war began...
Greatly accelerating the downfall of Shang Dong.
Ji Yuan had no goodwill towards him, and if given the opportunity, he even thought of slaying him!
"Not killed, it was all Ten Spirits Ancestor’s boasting to curry favor; at that time, Lu Corpse only escaped into the Gangfeng district in the North Sea and later returned alive."
The Ice and Fire Elder explained.
"So that’s how it is... which sect is Ten Spirits Ancestor in now?"
"Blood Luo Mountain."
The Ice and Fire Elder replied without hesitation, "Back then, the Spirit Control Sect defected to the Shangxi Demonic Dao, and after the end of the righteous and demonic war, Ten Spirits Ancestor joined Blood Luo Mountain."
"Oh? Blood Luo Mountain again?"
Ji Yuan instinctively squinted his eyes slightly.
It seems my foes have all gathered together, better so, saves me the trouble of running around; when the time is right, it can be wiped out in one fell swoop.
The Ice and Fire Elder, though not knowing where this ’again’ came from, nodded nonetheless.
"Indeed."
"Any other news?"
Ji Yuan pressed on.
"If there’s more, it concerns the Black and White Divine Hall in Coastal City."
