Chapter 1907: Chapter 706: The Former Dragon Sect Grounds, Place of Enlightenment
Nightfall descended.
Moonlight sprinkled on the sea surface, passing through the rippling waters, gradually vanishing into the deep sea.
Looking up, the scene was magnificent, as if in a dream.
Luo Chen slowly retracted his gaze, a hint of fear flashing across his pale face.
He never would have thought that the place he diverted disaster to would turn out to be the Soulbreak Cliff, a place rumored in the North Sea Cultivation World for countless years.
Previously, he paid the price of a drop of heart blood to create a puppet clone.
Under Han Zhan’s guidance, he forcibly extracted a strand of Divine Soul from his Sea of Consciousness using the principles of the Bead Curtain Lock and Kai Mao Technique.
In this way, apart from its physique, the clone’s breath was almost indistinguishable from his own.
At that time, Luo Chen released the clone while hiding in the deep sea, even sacrificing the extremely handy flying puppet Wooden Kite for it.
This was why he could deceive the bizarre moth.
Now thinking back, waves of throbbing surged through Luo Chen’s mind.
This pain, whether it was due to the voluntary extraction of the Divine Soul or the dread of the Soulbreak Cliff, was unknown.
It was said by Tai Sui that the danger of the Oblivion Sea surpassed that of the Soulbreak Cliff.
But in Luo Chen’s assessment, with prior preparations, the Oblivion Sea seemed relatively safer.
Yet that Soulbreak Cliff seemed to devour the souls of all living beings, bewildering and burying anyone who stepped in unknowingly.
What kind of divine and earthly craft made such a forbidden place?
Luo Chen shook his head, enduring the occasional stabbing pain in his mind, and looked around.
"Where is this?"
Previously, he was being hunted and flew with all his might into the depths of the Demon Sea.
Unknowingly, he had long surpassed his geographic knowledge of the Demon Sea.
For a moment, he couldn’t discern the exact direction.
Retreat?
That was impossible.
The puppet clone, when attacked by the moth-like Demon Beasts, sensed the presence of the Moon Independent Cultivator.
It seemed that the Moon Independent Cultivator was still relentlessly pursuing him.
Now, without the Wooden Kite, his Qi Power was not at its peak, and his Divine Soul was unstable, meeting the Moon Independent Cultivator would be a sure death.
"I have to see this through to the end!"
In an instant, Luo Chen made up his mind.
He stepped forward, encasing Sang Jinghe with Qi Power, moving neither hurriedly nor slowly on the seabed.
Whenever encountering Demon Beasts in the deep sea, even weaker Third-Order Demon Kings, he chose to hide and avoid.
He tried not to provoke new battles.
At this time, he missed the Black King even more.
If the Black King were still around, carrying him through the deep sea, it would be much more reassuring.
Unfortunately, the Black King was still unconscious in the Spirit Beast Bag.
Previously, Luo Chen had given him several Spirit Pills, even squeezing a few drops of Blood Essence containing Great Tai Sui Vitality from himself, to forcibly sustain the Black King’s life.
But to awaken him, it certainly couldn’t be done while sleeping in the Spirit Beast Bag.
"I must quickly find a place to settle down!"
"Not just for my cultivation, but also to save the Black King as much as possible."
...
Time elapsed quietly during the unknowing wandering on the seabed.
Six months later, a figure silently emerged from the sea surface.
In front of him was a giant island, not inferior in size to the Coldlight Island Luo Chen had visited before.
However, unlike Coldlight Island, this giant island had rolling peaks and meandering mountains.
Perhaps those mountains weren’t very high, from a distance they looked like mounds unearthed by some creature underground.
Yet amidst the mountains, lush forests thrived with greenery.
Scattered lakes adorned the place.
Accompanied by the sparse Heaven and Earth Qi, this place surprisingly gave a sense of a paradise.
Luo Chen, uncertain and doubtful, softly asked: "Senior, is this really a Fourth Order Spirit Vein?"
Han Zhan replied: "It should be correct, I can feel a burgeoning vitality flowing through the Earth Vein here, similar to what I felt at Tian Fan City’s Nascent Soul Formation in the past."
Luo Chen, puzzled, enhanced his sight with the Spirit Vision Technique, gazing at the giant island.
His eyes could discern vitality and decay, especially the paths of Earth Vein Spirit Qi.
In the past, it was this ability that led him to find a First Order Spirit Vein Cave beneath Crescent Valley.
But at this moment, he observed no peculiarities.
At most, the center of this giant island had a Third Order Spirit Vein level.
"If it were a Fourth Order Spirit Vein, powerful Demon Beasts would surely inhabit it."
"Yet from what I see, not to mention a Fourth Order Demon Emperor, not even powerful Third Order Demon Beasts are in sight."
"Senior, are you sure you didn’t sense incorrectly?"
Han Zhan hesitated as well.
But swiftly, he affirmed: "It should be correct! At least, according to my perception, it’s like this. Moreover, given the grandeur...vastness of this island, its Earth Vein foundation wouldn’t be lacking. As for why the Spirit Qi isn’t apparent, that requires you to investigate personally."
Luo Chen thought for a moment, nodding lightly.
In six months, delving deeper into the Demon Sea.
What he had seen and heard made him trust the rumors of the Demon Sea even more.
Powerful Demon Beasts and Sea Beasts were not uncommon!
Almost every high-quality Spirit Land was occupied by formidable Demon Beasts.
And this was when most top-tier Demon Beasts were sealed in the Ye Mo Sky.
He was now a solitary figure, in poor condition, not daring to rashly provoke conflicts.
After finally finding such a peculiar unclaimed land, it was impossible to pass it up.
"Then let’s explore it!"
Luo Chen gathered his spirit, slowly flying out of the sea.
With a wave of his hand, Sang Jinghe emerged as well.
"Are you alright?"
