Please show your spirit to our ancestors

Chapter 192: Chance! Little Blue Bottle
……

Just when Chen Xuanmo was in high spirits, a golden light shot out from below. When it got close, it suddenly stopped and hovered next to the top-grade fire spirit sword.

It turned out that it was Chen Daoling who caught up with him.

"Grandpa, you haven't heard my report yet~" Chen Daoling wiped the sweat from his forehead, "This island is called [Chixia Island], and the Ji family, which was demolished by the Chen family before, is said to be an ancient family. Their ancestors even produced a Jindan-stage cultivator. However, the family encountered misfortunes later and gradually declined. Now it is almost unable to maintain the foundation-building inheritance..."

He talked a lot about the situation on Chixia Island, the reasons for deciding to establish a family branch base here, and other information.

Chen Xuanmo commanded the Fire Spirit Sword to tremble heavily, emitting a sword sound and firelight, reminding him to speak the key points.

At the same time, Chen Xuanmo couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart.

Why is this eldest grandson of his becoming more and more talkative? He is becoming more and more like his good-for-nothing father.

Alas, I remember that when Daoling was young, he was also very much loved by his grandfather. When did I start to dislike him?
Oh, yes, Chen Xuanmo remembered.

That was when his great-grandson Chen Jingyun was eight years old. On that day, he was diagnosed with the aptitude of four spiritual roots. When this eldest grandson entered his study, Moxiang Pavilion, to announce the good news, he actually took his left leg first...

snort!
As the eldest grandson of the Chen family and the future successor of the family, how could he be so flustered and disorderly when encountering things?
From that moment on, Chen Xuanmo secretly banished Chen Daoling, the unworthy heir, to the cold palace, and placed his hopes of inheriting the family on his great-grandson Chen Jingyun.

And Chen Jingyun did not disappoint Chen Xuanmo's expectations. He has now established his foundation and is gradually taking on the responsibility of supporting the family.

However, Jing Yun's spiritual root aptitude is still a little lacking after all.

In comparison, my great-great-granddaughter Chen Shiyun and great-great-grandson Chen Xinlei, who have three spiritual roots, or three spiritual roots or special spiritual roots, are the hope for the future rise of my Chen family.

For a moment, while Chen Xuanmo was looking into the future, he couldn't help but feel a little disgusted with Jing Yun.

How could Chen Daoling, who was standing by, have expected that in just a split second, his heroic grandfather's thoughts had turned over so many times?

He coughed lightly and said, "Grandpa, because the middle-grade spiritual vein of Chixia Island is located in this bay, the main house was built by the bay. At the same time, the Ji family also built some sea fields near the bay and raised some spiritual fish, spiritual shrimps, and a kind of shellfish spiritual species that is said to be inherited from ancestors [Red-striped Spiritual Snail]."

As soon as he heard this, Chen Xuanmo knew that there was a reason why this so-called Ji family was so poor.

Breeding fish on this remote island, not to mention the technology and variety issues, even if the fish are raised, they can only be sent to the main island of Qianliu Islands for sale.

In an environment where every immortal cultivation family on the archipelago is engaged in aquaculture, how much can aquatic products sell for?
However, this is also the helplessness of most island families.

It's not that they have to fight to the death with aquaculture, it's just that the land on the island is scarce, and there are even fewer spiritual fields that can be developed. There are not many ways out if they don't engage in aquaculture.

Subsequently.

Under the leadership of Chen Daoling, Chen Xuanmo quickly inspected several large aquaculture fields that had been cordoned off.

With the nourishment of the medium-quality water spirit vein, the water in these breeding fields is rippling and full of vitality. Each of the cultured [Spirit Tiger Shrimp] is as thick as an arm and about a foot long, and looks delicious at first glance.

In another deep-water aquaculture field, a kind of spiritual fish called the Blue-striped Spiritual Fish is raised.

This fish is one of the specialties of the Qianliu Islands. It needs to be cultivated in cold seawater. The further north the waters are, the more delicate and exquisite the meat of the blue-striped spotted fish it cultivates, and it is top quality.

Chixia Island is located in the northern part of Qianliu Islands. The surrounding sea water temperature is quite low, which is indeed an excellent place to breed blue-striped spirit spots.

This kind of spiritual fish is a small predatory spiritual fish. Most adult fish weigh around 15 to 20 pounds. They are extremely delicious when steamed and are also good for strengthening qi and blood, and can assist in cultivation.

But the problem is that this kind of fish is difficult to breed, has extremely high requirements for water quality, and dies as soon as it comes out of the water. Even if it is transported by freezing, its taste and efficacy will be greatly reduced, so it cannot be sold at a high price locally.

Only by using a special spirit boat with a living water tank built inside can the blue-veined spirit spots be transported inland.

However, due to the long journey, the survival rate is not high even if it is transported in a living water warehouse. Therefore, the blue-striped spirit spots in the Great Wu Kingdom are sold at a very high price. Only those Jindan families and royal families are willing to eat them as a delicious luxury.

When talking about these, Chen Daoling spoke eloquently without even having to prepare a speech in his mind, and he pursed his lips from time to time. It was obvious that he had tasted a lot of rare inland delicacies such as tiger shrimp and blue-striped grouper in recent days. Because of this, he spoke very coherently.

Chen Xuanmo's eyebrows twitched when he heard this, and he wanted to explode and beat someone up.

Could it be that this kid bought the island under the guise of building a branch base for the family just because Chixia Island is a high-quality production area of ​​blue-veined spiritual spots?
The most important thing was that Chen Xuanmo was aroused by what he said, but he was in the state of a heroic spirit and couldn't eat anything. In the past, when he was patrolling the house, he would walk around when he saw the descendants of the tribe eating.

As a result, Chen Daoling, that brat, launched a crazy attack, causing tons of damage.

"Alas~~ If there is a way to transport specialty spiritual fish such as the blue-striped spiritual fish to inland areas of various countries at a low cost, our Chen family will make a fortune." Chen Daoling has specialized in the North Star waters market in recent years and has also conducted research on the pain points of this market, but unfortunately to no avail.

Ha ha.

Chen Xuanmo was too lazy to pay attention to him. He waved the Fire Spirit Sword and gestured to him, asking him to send someone to conduct a detailed investigation of the surrounding environment.

From now on, this will be the family's branch base, and we must have a detailed understanding of the surrounding conditions to avoid any unexpected situations.

At the same time, he also planned to take this opportunity to experiment and see if he could give his people purple and gold marks by using this fire sword as a carrier.

The reason why he asked the family to forge a fire-type spiritual sword as a carrier of the sword was naturally because Chen Xuanmo was an outstanding fire-type cultivator during his lifetime. The reason why the attributeless Xuanmo spiritual sword was created in the past was mainly to facilitate family inheritance.

Now that his family is wealthy and he has the opportunity to forge a separate sword, naturally, he wants to realize his original dream - to own a top-grade fire spirit sword.

The main material of this magic sword is the fifth-grade [Red Flame Precious Gold], which can be used to forge fire magic weapons. Now it is only used to create spiritual weapons. Coupled with Master Xuanyang's excellent craftsmanship, it is not surprising that the grade has reached the top grade.

And next it will guard the Chixia Island, so Chen Xuanmo simply named it "Chixia Spirit Sword".

"Yes, Grandpa, I will arrange it right away."

After hearing his grandfather's new order, Chen Daoling hurriedly stopped talking. He no longer dared to try to trick his grandfather's purple energy into developing living water transportation for him, and immediately began to arrange the exploration operation.

Soon, Wuyun No. 1 floated into the air and hovered above a sea area more than ten miles away from the shore, and put the water-escaping spirit boat on Wuyun No. 1 into the water.

At the same time, Yang Yuling slung the Chixia Spirit Sword around her waist and prepared to go into the water.

She first fished out the electric eels hiding in the large water tank and threw them into the sea. Then she jumped off the boat with two tribesmen and a foundation-building puppet and entered the water-escaping spirit boat. Then she commanded the water-escaping spirit boat to dive downwards.

The sea water here is only more than ten feet deep and still belongs to the island structure. Because the sea water is very clear, the bottom of the water is still hazy and various scenery can be seen clearly.

Most of the islands in the world are actually in the shape of mountains, but most of their bodies are submerged in the sea, with only a small part exposed above the sea surface, becoming islands in everyone's eyes.

Especially in island areas like the Qianliu Islands, there are naturally continuous mountains and ravines under the sea. It is unknown how many mountain peaks have failed to emerge from the sea and have become reefs and underwater mountains.

Therefore, the underwater environment here is very different from the waters near the East China Sea. The structure is very complex and much more dangerous.

The Water-Escape Spirit Boat moved forward slowly. The fat Thunder Eel swayed its body and slowly lurked in the shadow of the Water-Escape Spirit Boat.

As a sea beast whose main combat method is ambush, it is naturally impossible for it to charge into the front line. Hiding its tracks and taking action at the critical moment is the most suitable tactic for it.

Underwater, there are reefs, corals, or seabeds covered with white sand everywhere. The species richness here is far greater than that in the East China Sea. The various bizarre marine creatures make Chen Xuanmo, who is in the heroic spirit state, dazzled, as if he has come to a colorful underwater world.

The further the Water Escape Spirit Boat went, the deeper the sea water became. After traveling for dozens of miles, a broken underwater cliff suddenly appeared in front of them. Looking in that direction, it was pitch black, bottomless, and creepy.

Seeing this, Yang Yuling commanded the water-escaping spirit boat to sail horizontally along the edge of the cliff, constantly recording the surrounding terrain.

This is to gain a clear understanding of the conditions on the seabed around Chixia Island.

After all, this branch base bears the important responsibility of supporting the family, and it would not be good if it is not familiar with the surrounding environment.

See this.

Chen Xuanmo's mind moved, and he immediately began to call upon the purple energy in the Xuanmo Spirit Sword's transfer bead, which was located hundreds of thousands of miles away, through the induction between the sub-sword and the main sword.

In an instant, wisps of purple air were smoothly conditioned and continuously poured into Yang Yuling's forehead.

Ten threads later, a purple mark appeared on Yang Yuling's forehead.

Chen Xuanmo checked the consumption of purple energy back and forth and was very satisfied with the results.

This kind of call does not cause any loss to the purple energy.

This way, he can let go.

Immediately, he boldly called upon the purple energy again and continued to infuse it into Yang Yuling's body until the mark on her forehead changed from purple to gold and turned into a shining golden mark.

Next, Yang Yuling continued to explore the surrounding seas with the golden mark. During this time, he discovered some small or micro spiritual veins, which he marked on the map. He also found some spiritual fish, and after catching a few, he stopped catching more.

After all, in the island area, spiritual fish are not very valuable, and the cultivators here prefer to eat spiritual rice and spiritual meat.

Time flies quickly and three days go by in a flash.

Before they knew it, Yang Yuling and the Water Escape Spirit Boat had explored about one-tenth of the edge area around the island. Chen Xuanmo, who was following her, was very focused at first, wanting to see where the golden mark would be, but gradually he lost interest and began to let his mind wander.

Even Yang Yuling lost her initial concentration and became drowsy.

No matter how beautiful the sea view is, it will become boring after looking at it for a long time.

at this time.

The golden mark on Yang Yuling's forehead suddenly burst and turned into stars and dissipated.

This triggered some kind of opportunity.

And she herself didn't seem to notice at all.

Chen Xuanmo directed the Chixia Spirit Sword to tremble slightly, reminding her.

Yang Yuling immediately perked up.

She had worked with her great-grandfather so many times that she was very familiar with the signals he gave her and she immediately realized that this was an opportunity.

The drowsy feeling disappeared in an instant, and she stared intently at the changes in the surrounding environment through the transparent window of the Water Escape Spirit Boat.

at this time.

Chen Xuanmo's heroic spirit also swam quickly in the nearby sea to check if there were any abnormalities.

At this moment.

Several tentacles suddenly shot out from under an inconspicuous reef and hit the hull of the water-escaping spirit boat with a "thump thump thump".

Those tentacles were covered with suction cups. After hitting the spirit boat, they immediately wrapped around it flexibly, sucked up the water-escaping spirit boat, and then pulled it back violently. The tentacles tightened all at once and began to wrap around it in a deathly coil.

Only then did everyone see clearly that it was actually a giant octopus.

The octopus was larger than the spirit boat. Its eight tentacles wrapped around the water-escaping spirit boat tightly. Black patterns on its huge body kept twisting and changing. Its bulging eyes stared at everyone in the cabin through the porthole.

"Uh……"

Chen Xuanmo was stunned.

With a large amount of purple energy in his hands, he was naturally not afraid of this octopus at all.

It is just a ferocious sea beast that has just entered the fourth level, which is equivalent to the fifth level of the foundation-building period of a human cultivator.

But he couldn't figure out why the golden mark exploded when being attacked by monsters. What kind of opportunity was this?
Whatever.

He happened to want to test the power of the Chixia Spirit Sword when it was burning with purple energy.

"Om~~"

With a sound of sword sound, the Chixia Spirit Sword suddenly broke away from Yang Yuling's body, pierced through the porthole like a sharp arrow, and rushed away.

After entering the sea, the Crimson Cloud Spirit Sword was not suppressed by the sea water. Instead, it ignited with a scorching flame, dyeing the surrounding area red.

The sea water was pushed away by invisible energy, and the Chixia Spirit Sword slashed towards the octopus monster like a fire dragon.

In an instant, a terrifying power burst out from the sword, blazing and overbearing, as if it contained the true meaning of the law of fire.

It was burning as if it could burn everything.

The octopus was quite intelligent and sensed the strong threat instantly. It immediately retracted its tentacles and suddenly launched itself to escape.

However, it was too late.

A flame of extreme strength and masculinity gushed out from the sword body and ignited its tentacles.

Zizzi~~
The familiar grilling sound was heard, the surrounding sea water was boiling, the whole octopus was grilled and began to turn red, and began to escape desperately.

"Shh!"

The Chixia Spirit Sword attacked first and arrived later, cutting off its three tentacles.

The octopus trembled all over, but did not even pause. Instead, it seized the opportunity to escape and rushed madly towards the cliff on the seabed. In the blink of an eye, it dived into the deep depths.

Just one round.

Chen Xuanmo relied on the Chixia Spirit Sword to completely suppress the octopus monster.

This is why he tried to use the Fire Spirit Sword as the carrier of the split sword.

As a fire cultivator, when Chen Xuanmo uses the Fire Spirit Sword, his control over the true meaning of Fire can be fully exerted. The power that the Fire Spirit Sword can exert in his hands is naturally far beyond that of the Xuanmo Spirit Sword.

Seeing the octopus running away, he immediately turned into a beam of fire and chased after it without hesitation.

Killing a fourth-level octopus monster is also a considerable gain.

Seeing this, Yang Yuling also followed closely with the foundation-building puppet and the thunder eel.

The octopus was extremely fast, but no matter how fast it was, how could it be faster than the Chixia Spirit Sword that was burning with purple energy?
Even though it hid in a winding hole, it still couldn't escape. Chen Xuanmo, who was chasing it, stabbed it in the head with a sword.

The flames that erupted from within almost roasted it.

This was the result of Chen Xuanmo intentionally holding back, otherwise, the octopus would have been burned to ashes.

Yang Yuling, who was chasing closely, was also amazed when she saw this scene.

This Chixia Spirit Sword is so powerful that even in the negative environment of the seabed which is theoretically not suitable for the use of Fire Spirit Swords, it can actually easily take down a fourth-tier aquatic beast.

Just as she was about to go up to collect the spoils, she suddenly let out an "Eh!" and twisted her body as if she had discovered something, and suddenly swam towards the upper passage like a nimble fish.

"Wow!"

Yang Yuling emerged from the water and found herself in a cave.

Because of the air pressure, seawater could not enter the cave. The cave was actually dry, and the air quality was still good.

I didn’t expect that there is such a place near Chixia Island.

The only problem is that it is too dark here and the detection range of spiritual sense is limited.

She slapped her storage bag and a gem flew out immediately, hovering above her head, emitting a soft light that illuminated the cave clearly.

She then stepped into the cave and began to explore.

Soon, she found a skeleton in a dry cave deep in the cave.

The skeleton looked very old and its surface had been severely eroded. Next to the skeleton was a tattered storage bag with its inscription structure destroyed. Hundreds of dust-covered spirit stones, sundries, and jade slips were scattered on the ground next to it.

While Yang Yuling was checking the situation, Chen Xuanmo was also looking at it all.

He couldn't help but think that this might be the opportunity after the golden mark exploded.

However, Chen Xuanmo did not have high hopes for the golden mark and seemed a little uninterested. On the contrary, Yang Yuling was very excited. When she saw the spiritual stones and other debris on the ground, she immediately started to pick them up actively.

"what?"

Seeing Yang Yuling picking up a small bottle, Chen Xuanmo's heart moved slightly, and he suddenly became nervous and expectant.

But after Yang Yuling wiped off the dust, she found that the small bottle was blue.

"Uh……"

Chen Xuanmo was suddenly very disappointed and couldn't help but laugh at himself.

Chen Xuanmo, ah, Chen Xuanmo, it's just a bottle, why are you so excited?

Could it be that you really hope to pick up the little green bottle?
