Chapter 91 I am the designated island owner
Chapter 91 I am the designated island owner
The next chapter is even more exciting: Chapter 91 I am the designated island owner, and I look forward to your visit.
Upon hearing that it was a Nascent Soul level cultivation technique, Han Li felt a surge of excitement.
Although he mainly cultivates the "Azure Origin Sword Technique", who would complain about having too few top-level cultivation techniques?
Moreover, this technique is an advanced version of the "Mysterious Yin Technique," the main cultivation technique of the Extreme Yin Island!
Seeing that Han Li's enthusiasm for raising spirit insects had been piqued, Qing Feng seized the opportunity to explain some of his cultivation insights about the "Mysterious Yin Scripture".
Han Li listened very attentively, occasionally asking questions.
Qingfeng, the elder brother who was in the mid-stage of Core Formation, gave Han some pointers.
For Han Li, Qingfeng was not only a good older brother, but also someone comparable to a master.
After all, have you ever seen a mid-stage Core Formation cultivator who is willing to patiently guide a Foundation Establishment junior?
Qingfeng was clearly unaware of Han Li's thoughts.
If he knew that Han Li regarded him as his master, he would definitely have given Han Li the Forget-Dust Pill.
How many of those who become your masters end up with a good ending!
One hour later.
Xiao Luo reappeared at the entrance of the courtyard and strode in.
He was holding a pale blue jade box about a foot long in his hands.
"Young master, I have brought it."
These are a nest of insect eggs that my Daoist companion obtained by chance during her travels in her early years. According to her, they should be the eggs of the Golden Silkworm.
However, the incubation conditions for this egg were quite demanding, and she tried many times without success, so she kept it in a jade box for safekeeping.
Xiao Luo respectfully placed the jade box on the stone table.
"Oh? Golden silkworm?"
Qingfeng raised an eyebrow and took the jade box.
When the box was opened, a layer of crystalline jade fragments was seen at the bottom. Among the fragments, seven or eight milky-white insect eggs, each the size of a longan and covered with strange pale gold patterns, lay quietly.
Han Li, who was standing next to him, also curiously leaned over to examine the insect eggs closely, especially their pale golden patterns.
"Brother, these patterns are probably not from an ordinary golden silkworm."
Han Li looked at Qing Feng, his voice filled with excitement.
"Yes, I feel the same way."
Qingfeng had also seen the list of strange insects.
"If I'm not mistaken, this is an extremely rare variant."
The golden silkworm that hatches from this egg will evolve into the larva of the phantom moth.
Han Li pointed to the golden patterns on the insect eggs and explained.
"Phantom Flame Moth?"
Xiao Luo looked blank, clearly having never heard of this name before.
"Ranked seventeenth on the list of unusual insects, the Phantom Flame Moth."
According to this theory, once this insect matures, its wings can produce phantom flames.
It can use illusionary powers to conceal its form for a short time, and even simulate the atmosphere of the surrounding environment, making it extremely difficult to be detected by divine sense.
It's top-tier in stealth, reconnaissance, and even assassination of spirit insects.
Qingfeng was also somewhat surprised. He really didn't expect that his casual remark would result in Xiao Luo giving him such a big gift.
"What, ranked seventeenth on the list of strange insects?"
Xiao Luo was completely bewildered; it seemed like something serious was going on.
Seeing his confusion, Han Li patiently explained the ranking of various spirit insects.
He truly loved insects.
Qingfeng was very happy after collecting the insect eggs.
Although the Blood Jade Spider project failed, the acquisition of Phantom Flame Moth eggs was an unexpected bonus.
The Phantom Flame Moth is a spirit insect with powerful stealth abilities, making it extremely useful for self-protection, intelligence gathering, and assisting in operations.
The Blood Jade Spider is only useful for pulling the cauldron; in other aspects, it is far inferior to the Phantom Flame Moth, which ranks seventeenth.
"This item will be useful to me, so I will accept it. I will remember your kindness. The Pill Pavilion will allocate another set of resources to you as compensation."
Qingfeng said to Xiao Luo.
"Young Master, you flatter us! This egg would be a hidden gem in our hands. It is its good fortune to be of use to you. How could we possibly ask for any compensation?"
Xiao Luo quickly waved his hand; he genuinely believed it.
Seeing that Xiao Luo was so good at handling things, Qing Feng didn't say anything more.
"Brother Han, the Star-Picking Competition is about to begin. I have some things to prepare, so I'll take my leave now."
Qingfeng said with a smile.
"The Star-Picking Competition? Big Brother, are you going to participate in the Island Lord competition and vie for the position of Island Lord?"
Han Li said with some surprise.
"Hehe, participating in the arena competition is just a formality. I'm actually the pre-selected island master."
Qingfeng said meaningfully.
"Pre-selected island owner?"
Han Li was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, but then he suddenly understood.
"I won't disturb your cultivation any longer."
Qingfeng patted Han Li on the shoulder and left Han Li's residence with Xiao Luo.
Watching Qingfeng transform into a streak of azure light and disappear into the horizon, Han Li stood in the courtyard for a long time without moving.
He felt no jealousy; instead, a fighting spirit surged within him.
"Big brother... is truly remarkable."
The gap between me and my elder brother remains enormous. The world of cultivation is vast, teeming with powerful individuals, where opportunities and risks coexist.
My brother's guidance and gifts today are a great fortune for me. But ultimately, one must walk the path of life on one's own.
"I will remain in seclusion until I have formed my Golden Core!"
Han Li made a tough decision.
Even if the eldest brother has a powerful background and exceptional talent, so what?
He has the little green bottle!
In the future, he will definitely be able to catch up with his older brother.
……
However, Han Li was unaware that Qing Feng not only had a strong background and exceptional talent, but also an even stronger cheat system.
After leaving Han Li's residence, Qingfeng took Xiao Luo back to Qingyang Dancao Pavilion in Tianxing City.
Upon entering the backyard of the Pill Pavilion, Qingfeng tossed the half-finished "Mysterious Yin Scripture" to Xiao Luo.
"This is in exchange for the Illusion Flame Moth eggs. Don't refuse; take it and cultivate diligently. Once you reach the Core Formation stage, I will give you the second half."
Qingfeng smiled and patted Xiao Luo on the shoulder.
This cultivation technique originally belonged to his unfortunate ancestor Xiao Cha, and now it has returned to the Xiao family's hands.
Xiao Luo held the jade slip of the "Mysterious Yin Scripture" and probed into it with his divine sense. He was immediately shocked by the contents of the techniques within.
"Thank you for the reward, young master!"
Xiao Luo was so excited that he knelt down on the ground with a "plop".
"Look at you, at it again. I gave you the cultivation technique hoping you could advance quickly and become my help. Get up, there's no need for this."
Qingfeng helped him up and said gently.
"Yes."
Xiao Luo nodded vigorously and put the jade slip into his storage bag.
"There's something I need you to do right now, which can also be considered a test for you."
Qingfeng changed the subject, his expression becoming slightly serious.
"Please give your orders, young master! I, Xiao Luo, will gladly die for you!"
Xiao Luo immediately straightened his back.
"Yes, you contacted a man called Curved Blade, who is a leader of the Whale Gang."
Recently, the leader of the Blackwater Hall, one of the six halls of the Giant Whale Gang, led a team to Tianxing City, presumably to participate in the Star Picking Competition.
The defenses of the treasury where they reside are relatively weaker.
I need you to find a way to work with [Curved Blade] from the inside to find out the location and restrictions of the treasure vault, and find an opportunity to open it and take out the valuable items inside.
As for the specifics, [Curved Blade] will tell you when the time comes.
Remember, this matter must be kept absolutely secret. Your identity must not be revealed, and you must not implicate the Pill Pavilion or the sect.
As Qingfeng spoke, he handed Xiao Luo a dark blue, scale-like token and a note with contact information and a code.
"Curved Blade" was a spy he recruited on Xiaohuan Island in his early years. After he returned from the Outer Sea, he made contact with Qingfeng.
They also secretly reported some recent intelligence about the Giant Whale Gang.
The most important of these is the matter of the sect's treasure vault.
"Understood! I will act with caution and live up to the young master's expectations!"
Xiao Luo felt a chill run down his spine, knowing that this matter was no small thing.
The Giant Whale Gang is a powerful gang in the Chaotic Star Sea.
Their treasury was heavily guarded, and even with an inside accomplice, it was not an easy task to complete.
"If this succeeds, you can return to the sect and collect three Dust-Reducing Pills with my warrant."
After issuing the task, Qingfeng made another promise.
