Chapter 306: Chapter 186: Sea Abyss City

The giant boat from Celestial Profound City flew across the sky, meeting several smaller spiritual boats at the border of the Seven Nations, then they proceeded together.

It was a vast and mighty fleet, with over twenty flying boats in total. Even a Tier Three Demon Beast would be terrified and flee upon seeing this display of power.

A Nascent Soul Cultivator, along with the elite from the Seven Nations, made up this formidable force.

Simultaneously, the Seven Nations formed an alliance, known as the Seven Nations Alliance.

The Seven Nations Alliance desired to honor the sole Nascent Soul Cultivator as their leader, but Master Lu only accepted the title of Elder Tributor.

The Seven Nations Alliance needed to offer up resources, while Master Lu merely contributed by leveraging his influence to secure a place for the Seven Nations Alliance in the Demon Beast Abyss.

This is the influence of a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

The difference between a Golden Core and a Nascent Soul, is like that between clouds and mud.

…

Months later, the flying boat sped through the sky at a pace not inferior to the escape light of a Golden Core.

“These sects are really crafty, leaving behind one or two Fake Pill Cultivators and some elite disciples within their own territory.

Various families under their governance also mobilized cultivators to join the sects or to accompany them this time. Though the journey was fraught with danger, it was also full of opportunities.”

On the deck of the flying boat, Lin Chang’an gazed at the boundless cloud sea, filled with curiosity.

Meanwhile, many cultivators around were whispering among themselves.

Because the ship was from Celestial Profound City, consisting mostly of Loose Cultivators, they naturally didn’t fear being overheard by the Seven Nations Alliance.

Lin Chang’an also nodded secretly; those sects weren’t foolish. After this migration, leaving the rear unguarded could easily lead to instability.

Thus, they chose the simplest method, which was to form an entity, the Seven Nations Alliance.

All families under their rule pledged allegiance to the sects, and their young disciples were recruited by the sects.

They also mobilized Foundation Establishment Cultivators to accompany their fellow sect members on the journey to the Demon Beast Abyss.

From then on, they shared weal and woe together.

The Seven Nations Alliance also agreed mutually that forces remaining in the Seven Nations should not attack each other.

“The Seven Nations Alliance, seeking warmth by clustering together while traveling; this is a survival instinct as well.”

“Look quickly, those sea birds, and the demon beasts in the water, we’ve never seen them before!”

On the deck, countless never-before-seen sea birds soared in the sky.

And down below, in the Boundless Sea, unfamiliar sea beasts elicited exclamations of surprise from the cultivators.

After all, this was entirely a new world for them.

“This sea breeze, its aura is distinctly different from before.”

Lin Chang’an was keenly aware of the different aura in the sea breeze.

“Brother Lin, this area already counts as the outskirts of the Demon Beast Abyss. As we go deeper, the spiritual energy will grow denser, and the sea beasts will become more numerous.”

“The outskirts!”

Lin Chang’an was surprised upon hearing Yun Yao’s words.

Though he had long heard Yun Yao mention the dense spiritual energy in the Demon Beast Abyss, merely the outskirts, not even a spirit vein area, already had such spiritual energy.

At that moment, Lin Chang’an finally understood why the Demon Beast Abyss, despite its dangers, still attracted countless cultivators.

“Just the outskirts, the density of spiritual energy already rivals that of Cyan Bamboo Mountain Market.

Although Cyan Bamboo Mountain Market is small, it at least sits upon a spirit vein.

As they drew nearer to the Demon Beast Abyss, Yun Yao’s brow slightly furrowed with complexity.

However, in the Demon Beast Abyss, cultivation materials and spiritual energy surpass those in Celestial Profound City greatly.

“Brother Lin, you could say the Demon Beast Abyss is a place where dragons and snakes mingle. Legend has it that tens of thousands of years ago, this place was where the Great Jin Dynasty exiled sinful cultivators.

Over time, it became a holy land for countless Tribulation Cultivators and Demon Cultivators, known as the Sea of Ten Thousand Demons. Even Bihai Palace is rumored to be a branch of the Great Jin royal family exiled here to guard the Abyss.”

Yun Yao spoke in a low voice, conveying information that Lin Chang’an was somewhat familiar with, but regarding the strongest force in the Demon Beast Abyss, Bihai Palace.

Lin Chang’an could not help but be astounded.

Nine Elders, all Nascent Soul Cultivators, and two Palace Masters who were late-stage Nascent Soul Great Cultivators.

Beneath them were countless subsidiary forces and numerous business associations and middle-sized to small sects sworn under Bihai Palace.

Bihai Palace could be said to be the strongest force in the Demon Beast Abyss.

“Additionally, there are the Sixteen Sea Suppression Sects, countless righteous, demon sects, and Loose Cultivators in the Demon Beast Abyss…”

Listening to Yun Yao’s words, Lin Chang’an felt a sense of smallness, reminiscent of when he first entered the Immortal Cultivation Realm, confronted by a new world.

“No wonder all cultivators are tempted by the Demon Beast Abyss, yet remain apprehensive.”

Lin Chang’an reflected, not only having to resist the invasion of sea beasts but also facing a multitude of forces.

The Seven Nations Alliance, in his eyes, was already a massive entity, yet in the Demon Beast Abyss, it was only considered a decent mid-level force.

True Monarch Lu, for the Seven Nations Alliance, was merely a tributor brought in for benefits, only draping a tiger’s skin.

Afterward, the two returned to discussing cultivation.

As they approached the Demon Beast Abyss, the cultivators on the flying boat felt the dense spiritual energy, and countless individuals showed signs of excitement.

And Lin Chang’an was not idle on the boat, meditating in cultivation, and aside from not practicing alchemy, he also spent time painting talismans and studying insights on arrays without delay.

There was even a transaction meeting hosted by Foundation Establishment Cultivators on the flying boat, trading useful items among themselves.

…

This journey greatly broadened the horizons of the cultivators from the Seven Nations, who were struck by this new world.

Along the way, they witnessed a Tier Three Great Demon fleeing in terror across the sea, and caught glimpses of flying beasts darting across the sky.

Endless demon beasts signified abundant resources.

This entire journey encountered no highway robbery by Demon Dao followers or pure Tribulation Cultivators.
