Chapter 329: Qilin Island

Half a Year Later.

The Qilian Merchant Guild’s Duyu Vessel sailed steadily on the Black Sea, getting closer and closer to Qilin Island.

The situation above the Black Sea was treacherous, with various hurricanes and large waves constantly emerging, coupled with various fierce sea beasts hidden deep in the sea.

These sea beasts would occasionally harass ships passing by at sea. Along the way, even though the Duyu Vessel had many Cultivators escorting it, they were still quite tormented.

During this long sea journey, the fleet experienced several crises and finally sailed away from the dangerous sea area.

They even encountered a large group of Sea of Blood Mad Sharks, numbering in the thousands. The leading dozen or so Sea of Blood Mad Shark Demonic Beasts had even reached the Second Stage Late Phase Level, with a size of hundreds of Zhang.

Once hit, they would sink to the seabed.

If they hadn’t encountered a sudden sea storm, the Qilian Merchant Guild’s Magic Ship would have almost had a head-on encounter with the shark group.

Even so, it still caused the people on the ship to break out in cold sweat.

Capsizing in the Black Sea was not a joke.

Daoist Han and the other two were also very nervous, obviously encountering such a thing for the first time.

“It seems that going to Great Jin is really not easy. Not to mention the long journey, the only passage is also full of crises.”

“Without some strength, a power would simply not be able to pass through.”

Qin Ming stood on the deck, looking at the rolling waves of the boundless Black Sea, and said with a sigh.

“That’s natural. Besides Great Jin’s specially made Duyu Vessels, other ships simply can’t withstand the storms in this sea area.”

“Therefore, even those notorious Pirates dare not appear on the Black Sea.”

“The most dangerous things are natural disasters and sea beasts.”

The skinny middle-aged Cultivator, Gao Feng, stood beside Qin Ming and explained with a smile.

Qin Ming nodded, recalling the experiences of this period of time.

In the past half a year, his Cultivation and farming had not been neglected.

After all, he now possessed the Small Spiritual Realm, this Blessed Land, and could cultivate and farm anytime, anywhere, which was very convenient.

The Natal Spirit Plant, the Yin Yang Mysterious Vine, was also growing stronger.

Qin Ming didn’t need to manage the three Spiritual Beasts; with the Third-Rank Supreme-Grade Spiritual Vein environment, they were all diligently cultivating.

During this time, the Heaven Devouring Rat was assigned by Qin Ming to farming, going to the area of the Small Spiritual Realm that hadn’t been reclaimed to pioneer.

This made it complain from time to time inside.

Qin Ming was blowing in the wind and getting some air on the deck.

Just then.

Above the entire Magic Ship, a warning sound like a great bell suddenly rang again.

“Everyone, please return to the cabin to avoid the area ahead. We are going to pass through the Spirit-Severing Mysterious Mist Area, about five hundred miles in scope.”

“Reminder again, everyone”

Hearing this, Qin Ming and the others also frowned and turned back to the cabin, closing the doors and windows tightly.

“May I ask Daoist Han, does this Mysterious Mist have the same origin as the Northern Border Swamp?” Qin Ming asked.

Daoist Han sat down, sipped some Tea, and explained faintly, “That’s right. The sea area we are passing through is located in the northeast direction, bordering the Spirit-Severing Land. Affected by the weather, the Mysterious Mist will occasionally spread to the sea surface.”

“However, Fellow Daoist Lu can rest assured. The Duyu Vessel has a special Defensive Formation to protect it, and it is basically Safe and Sound.”

“Oh, the swamp in the Northern Border is called the Spirit-Severing Land.” Qin Ming suddenly Realized and nodded.

At this moment, the plump Woman, Liu Ye, also chuckled and explained, “The Spirit-Severing Land, as the name suggests, is that the Mysterious Mist can devour the Magical Power within the Cultivators’ bodies, until they are Exhausted and die. Even Golden Core True Persons can’t withstand this Erosion.”

“I see.”

Qin Ming nodded, and this time he had a general Explanation.

Half Day Later.

The Qilian Merchant Guild’s Duyu Vessel passed through a stretch of gray Mysterious Mist where one couldn’t see Five Fingers. The Cultivators inside looked out and saw that it was emitting a gloomy and Terror Aura, as if it wanted to Devour everything.

Qin Ming silently released a wisp of Divine Sense and probed it towards the Mysterious Mist outside the window, but in the next moment, he was Shock to discover that his wisp of Divine Sense, comparable to the Golden Core Realm, was instantly Devoured by the gray Mist and vanished without a trace.

He quickly retracted his Divine Sense, and a pale look appeared on his face.

‘It seems that the Mysterious Mist of this Spirit-Severing Land is truly formidable, even stronger than the Mist Illusion Realm on my Moonview Island by several times.’

It seemed to see Qin Ming’s Anomaly.

Daoist Han, sitting opposite, asked, “Is there anything Uncomfortable for you, Fellow Daoist Lu?”

“No Problem, it’s probably because I’m not used to such a long Voyage, and I’m a little tired.” Qin Ming Dry Laugh and said.

The Silver-Haired Old Man, Daoist Han, nodded upon hearing this, and took out a Jade Bottle from his arms and handed it to Qin Ming: “This is also Normal. When the Old Man went out to sea, the Reaction was more severe than yours. After all, a Voyage of more than half a year in a row is not something that anyone can adapt to the first time.”

“This bottle of Wind Lin Pill can relieve some fatigue.”

“In addition, there is something else to inform you, Fellow Daoist Lu. When passing through the Spirit-Severing Mysterious Mist, you must not use your Divine Sense to probe, otherwise, if it’s light, you will be injured, and if it’s heavy, you will be devoured and die. Remember!”

Qin Ming was frightened into a Cold Sweat upon hearing this. He almost died from Curiosity.

He was also not pretentious; during these past six months, he had become very familiar with the three of them.

So he took the Jade Bottle and poured out a Spirit Pill of Azure color and took it.

‘It’s actually a Second Stage Pill.’

……

Several Days Later.

The Qilian Merchant Guild’s Magic Ship passed through the Mysterious Mist, and the Sunshine outside fell on the ship again, and the previous Gloomy Aura was swept away.

Gradually.

A huge Island appeared in everyone’s Vision.

Above the Island, a vast Volcano stood high, constantly emitting Thick Smoke.

At first glance, it was like a chimney standing on the sea, very Eye-catching.

“Fellow Daoist Lu, Qilin Island is here!”

Daoist Han and the other two looked at the distant Island, and a Joyful Expression also flowed in their Gaze, and they Breathed a Sigh of Relief.

“We finally arrived, I could be suffocated.”

“This Job is really not easy to do.”

“After returning to the Merchant Guild Headquarters and finishing the Job, I will have a good rest for a while.”

“Fellow Daoist Lu, we are kindred spirits, and we have drunk a lot of your Fine Wine. When we get to Great Jin, we three will be the host, and we must have a meal.”

Daoist Han said to Qin Ming with Enthusiasm.

“Definitely, definitely.”

Qin Ming responded with a Smile. The three from the Myriad Dao Merchant Alliance did not have too many subtleties and were still worth making friends with.

One hour later.

The whole picture of Qilin Island kept expanding in Qin Ming’s Vision.

The Qilian Merchant Guild’s Magic Ship slowly docked at the harbor of the Island.

Hundreds of Cultivators in scarlet and purple Clothing, with the Mark of three intertwined Flames embroidered on their sleeves and lapels, were the Sect Emblem of Li Fire Palace.

Symbolizing the Hegemon Level Status of the Nascent Soul Sect.

The Resident Cultivators of Li Fire Palace appeared at the Harbor and began to inspect the Identities one by one.

After verifying the Identities and handing over the Holy Flame Order to board the Island.

Qin Ming also went to the Island with everyone.

The moment he stepped into Qilin Island, he suddenly felt a Rich and Burning Aura rushing towards him.

Where he could see.

Although this Island was Not a Blade of Grass Grows, it was everywhere, filled with black and gray Rock, and the Ashes left after the Volcano erupted, full of spots.

But—

“Such Rich Fire Spiritual Qi.”

“This is. A pure Third-Rank Upper Grade Fire Attribute Spirit Vein!”

For a time, he was also secretly surprised, and he was amazed by the Creation of the Great Dao.

At that moment, he felt that he hadn’t come out in vain.

“I didn’t expect that on the boundless Black Sea, there would be such a place of Flames, and it also possesses a High-Grade Spiritual Vein, which is truly Spectacular.”

Hearing Qin Ming’s exclamation, the skinny Cultivator, Gao Feng, came over and said with a Hehe, “Fellow Daoist Lu, you don’t know, this Qilin Island was discovered by a Great Being who tried to cross the Black Sea.”

“Don’t look at the barren Island, but in fact, besides the Third-Rank Upper Grade Fire Spiritual Vein, there are all kinds of Spirit Mine resources, which are Rich beyond compare.”

“Especially, it produces a kind of Qilin Jade Crystal, which is a Spirit Material that is hard to come by, and has great uses in Alchemy, Planting Spirit Plants, and Artificing.”

“The income from the Teleportation Array’s tolls is just a small part, the resources on the Island are the main part.”

“It is also the key land of Li Fire Palace. After all, the Geographical Location of Qilin Island is extremely crucial. The Teleportation Array on the Island connects the Great Jin and the various Cultivation Worlds, and is an important hub.”

Qin Ming listened to Gao Feng’s Introduction while walking inside.

Then a layer of Blue Haze Defensive Formation appeared in front of Qin Ming. Inside were House Buildings made of numerous Black Mysterious Stones, which were connected to two large areas, and in the middle were Stone Slab roads leading in all directions.

There were many Cultivators shouting inside, selling various Goods vigorously.

This made Qin Ming feel the different humanistic customs.

“Fellow Daoists who pass by, come and take a look!”

“Freshly baked Second Stage Mid Stage Deep Sea Eels are essential Tonics for Body Refining Cultivators, and they also have the Effect of not falling over after. Only nine nine eight!”
