Chapter 542 Overseas Wanyun Island
Zhaoning County is the only county in Tianchong Mountain that is close to the sea. Six thousand miles to the north is Lianyun Sea, one of the three mountains and four seas in the Chaos Demon Realm.
The monsters that appear in the county are not the birds and beasts in the central part, but mostly sea monsters and water monsters, and their powers vary.
Guiyan Mountain is where sea monsters often appear on the border of the sea. It is the closest mountain range to Wanyun Island. Except for some high-level cultivators with high skills and courage, low-level casual cultivators dare not go deep into it.
This day, the fog was shrouded, and the whole Guiyan Mountain looked white, like a natural fog barrier. You can't see your fingers when you stretch out your hand. You need to use your spiritual sense to detect it to grasp the route.
Under this favorable condition, the nearby sea monsters are naturally very happy, hiding in the dark to wait for prey.
But today, many sea monsters just came ashore and suddenly felt a strong spiritual pressure, like a storm coming from the inside of the mountain. For a time, the monsters were frightened and fled back to the water and dared not show their heads.
If you look carefully, you will find that two rays of light are slowly descending in the mountains. After the light fades, two figures, one fat and one thin, appear.
These people are naturally the two great elders of Wuque Cave Heaven, Elder Baijing and Elder Yunding.
"Brother, it seems that we are here too early."
Elder Yunding looked around, waved the whisk in his hand, and said with a chuckle.
"Yes, we are here too early." Elder Baijing nodded and said, "But the three-month deadline has arrived. With the determination of Fellow Daoist Ye to collect spiritual materials from various sects, he will never break the appointment. Let's wait here."
"Just do as you say."
The two of them sat cross-legged and entered into meditation.
Three months passed in a blink of an eye. They had already prepared everything. Today was the date agreed with Ye Chunyang to go to Wanyun Island. They expected that the latter would not miss the opportunity to kill Xuanyun Turtle, so they came here to wait.
The two had reached the late stage of their magic power. Although there were many monsters in the Ghost Flame Mountain, they dared not approach them under their powerful spiritual pressure. Therefore, the area within a few miles around this place seemed unusually calm.
After an unknown period of time, Elder Baijing's expression changed, and he opened his eyes and looked up at the distant sky.
"He's coming."
Elder Yunding also woke up from his meditation, and saw a green rainbow passing through the clouds like a meteor, so fast that it was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.
After reaching their sky, this green rainbow suddenly stopped, as if it was investigating something, and then it accelerated to land.
But after the escape light disappeared, the two elders were stunned and found that the scene in front of them was very different from what they thought, because it was not only Ye Chunyang who appeared, but also a beautiful girl with him.
"What is this, Fellow Daoist Ye?"
Elder Baijing looked at the girl next to Ye Chunyang and found that she was only in the middle stage of foundation building, and he couldn't help but frowned.
"Don't misunderstand me, my two Taoist friends. This girl is the daughter of the Han family. She will go to sea with us this time. This girl was born with some talent. It will be helpful to bring her along. Han Yun, these two are Elder Bai Jing and Elder Yun Ding of Wuque Dongtian."
The girl next to Ye Chunyang was naturally Han Yun. He brought her to the agreed place before coming here. However, Ye Chunyang did not expect that after giving Lingqing Pill to this girl three months ago, she had successfully advanced to the middle stage of foundation building after taking this pill.
However, he did not want to say more about the fact that this girl was born with different bones. After briefly introducing them to the two, he vaguely passed it over.
Seeing that the people Ye Chunyang had an appointment with were actually the two great elders of Wuque Dongtian who were in the late stage of magic power.
Han Yun was frightened and saluted hurriedly, saying, "My humble daughter, Han Yun, greets the two seniors."
"Fellow Daoist Ye, this trip to Wanyun Island is very important. Is it too hasty to let a low-level female cultivator accompany you?"
Elder Yun Ding frowned deeply and looked at Han Yun with doubt. Although what they were doing this time was not very dangerous, it was beyond their expectations that Ye Chunyang brought a female cultivator who had established a foundation.
"It's okay. This girl is a little special. I have my reasons for bringing her."
Ye Chunyang said expressionlessly.
The two elders were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, and fell silent.
After a pause, Elder Bai Jing nodded and said, "Okay, since Fellow Daoist Ye said so, we two naturally have no objection, but there are so many monsters on Wanyun Island, so we should be careful."
"Of course." Ye Chunyang replied.
Han Yun was stunned when she saw this. The two elders of Wuque Dongtian were well-known and were the top masters in Zhaoning County, but they seemed to be in awe of Senior Ye. Who was the latter to have such ability?
"Let's set off as soon as possible without delay."
Elder Yunding raised his hand, and a white light shot out from his sleeve, turning into a dragon-scale flying boat with a width of 100 feet.
"This boat is a mid-level spiritual treasure, and its speed of flying is a thousand miles a day. Although it is not far to Wanyun Island, it can save us mana by using this boat."
As he spoke, Elder Yunding stepped onto the flying boat first and embedded the spirit stone into the activation array.
"Since Elder Yunding is so kind, Ye will not be polite."
After Ye Chunyang said this, he took Han Yun and followed Elder Yunding up.
After all, this woman is only a foundation-building cultivator, and her flying speed is naturally not as fast as their mana cultivators. If she is flying with her, it will consume a lot of mana, and it will be much more convenient with this dragon scale flying boat.
Han Yun originally thought that this senior Ye was just a superb cultivator, but she didn't expect that he had such a deep relationship with the two elders of Wuque Cave Heaven, which was far beyond her imagination.
Therefore, she dared not have the slightest contempt for Ye Chunyang, and obeyed the latter's orders.
After the group was ready to go, under the spell of Elder Yunding, the dragon-scale flying boat flowed like a light shuttle, broke through the clouds with a sharp roar, and escaped dozens of miles away in the blink of an eye. All that can be seen is the rapid retreat of the mountains and forests.
Gui Yan Mountain is already at the border of Tian Chong Mountain. Only a hundred miles ahead, you will see a vast sea area, which belongs to the boundary of Lianyun Sea.
At a glance, there are many islands scattered on it, with seagulls and cranes playing in the clouds, and the field of vision gradually broadens.
Sitting on the flying boat, Ye Chunyang looked calm, closed his eyes and meditated peacefully, never moving at all except occasionally sensing the surrounding situation.
The two elders of Wugou Cave Heaven seemed to be preparing for the next hunt. No one spoke a word on the road and they were silently adjusting their breath and recuperating.
However, Han Yun, a female foundation-building cultivator who was quite an outsider, felt a little uncomfortable being sandwiched among these three top masters. She sat on the bow of the boat feeling uneasy and very reserved.
This continued until more than ten days later, when Elder Bai Jing woke up first, opened his eyes and looked ahead, with a happy look on his face.
At the same time, Ye Chunyang, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, suddenly felt a gloomy wind blowing past his ears, and his expression moved slightly before he woke up.
Looking up, I saw turbulent waves ahead and a thick layer of black clouds in the sky. Below it was a huge island covered with sea sand and rocks. There were several virgin forests scattered on it, and there was a wave in the distance. The wild aura hit his face.
What surprised Ye Chunyang a little was that the island had a demonic aura soaring into the sky, with dark winds gathering from time to time, and there was not a trace of life within a few miles around, giving people an invisibly eerie feeling.
"Fellow Daoist Ye, this is Wanyun Island."
Seeing Ye Chunyang wake up, Elder Bai Jing pointed to the giant island in front of him and said.
At this time, Elder Yun Ding also slowed down the speed of the Dragon Scale Flying Boat, and then with a pinch of magic, a green shield appeared on the boat, blocking out the demonic aura surrounding it.
Ye Chunyang glanced slightly, and he could vaguely feel that monsters were rampant on the island, and some of them had a vague aura that even reached the upper level of the second level, which was very ferocious and abnormal.
"Mr. Bai has here a topographic distribution and intelligence map of Wanyun Island, including the specific location of Orchid Grass. Fellow Taoist, please take a look. Once the grass matures, we can implement the hunting plan."
Elder Bai Jing released his spiritual consciousness to explore the black clouds, and then threw a scroll to Ye Chunyang.
"Intelligence map? It seems that Elder Bai Jing has done enough homework before."
Ye Chunyang took the scroll with some surprise and found that the map not only clarified the possible locations of Orchid Grass and Black Cloud Turtle, but also detailed notes on some places where high-level monsters often appeared.
In fact, in the past three months, Ye Chunyang also tried his best to collect a lot of information about Wanyun Island, but compared to Elder Bai Jing's map, it was much more detailed, which surprised Ye Chunyang.
"After all, Wanyun Island is a dangerous place overseas. Since we are going to hunt Black Cloud Turtles here, we must be fully prepared."
Elder Bai Jing smiled nonchalantly.
Ye Chunyang glanced at the scroll and roughly understood the information about the island. He closed the scroll and was silent for a while, then asked: "How long will it take until the Orchid Grass matures?"
"Judging from the speed we are traveling at, this grass is now almost mature. If the prediction is correct, the Orchid Grass can be harvested in at least three days. The Black Cloud Turtle will definitely not miss this opportunity. We just need to wait and see. That’s it.”
This time, it was Elder Yun Ding who said with his fingers.
Ye Chunyang pondered for a moment after hearing the words, and after a moment he made a decision, saying: "In this case, we will cast a spell and form an array near the Orchid Grass, and we can take action as soon as the Black Cloud Turtle appears."
"That's what it means."
The two elders of Wugou Dongtian laughed.
After some discussion and a plan, Elder Yun Ding once again blessed the Dragon Scale Flying Boat. As the speed of the boat soared, the three of them quickly passed through the black clouds and landed on a beach in the southwest of Wanyun Island.
The slightly cold wind blew against his face with the faint smell of sea water. As soon as he settled down, Ye Chunyang felt that there was a dignified depression on the island, which was due to the accumulation of evil spirits all year round.
Seeing this, Han Yun couldn't help but get closer to him, trying to find a sense of security.
Ye Chunyang did not object to the woman's approach. Her next actions were likely to play a vital role, so he naturally wanted to protect her safety.
As if he had thought of something, he turned back to Elder Yun Ding and said, "Elder Yun Ding, there are many monsters on the island, so we might alarm them. We need to be careful when entering the island, so we should put this boat away."
"Fellow Daoist Ye is right."
Elder Yun Ding pondered for a moment, nodded in agreement, and immediately patted the Qiankun bag, and the dragon-scale flying boat was drawn into it as a stream of light.
Then he added: "According to the information collected by our party, the orchid grass is nearby. Before the black cloud turtle appears, we need to find this grass as soon as possible."
Ye Chunyang had no objection. After using the technique to control his aura, he took Han Yun and took the lead.
