Yuan Ming took the jade slip and used his spiritual consciousness to sink into it.
A large amount of information about the East China Sea has been collected in the jade slips, and the records are very detailed.
The East China Sea is vast, even above the Central Plains, Southern Xinjiang and other places. However, the East China Sea is different from other places. It is a boundless sea with countless islands.
In fact, the so-called East China Sea area mainly refers to these islands. Both mortals and cultivators in the East China Sea are distributed on these islands.
The climate in the East China Sea is severe, and natural disasters such as hurricanes, tsunamis, and earthquakes are frequent. Without shelter, it is difficult for mortals to survive here. Therefore, most of the inhabited islands here are spiritual islands with spiritual veins.
There is no country in the East China Sea. The managers of each island are the cultivating sects above. An island is equivalent to a small country in the city-state system.
The entire East China Sea island is divided into three levels based on the island's spiritual veins.
The number of third-class islands is the largest, with two to three thousand recorded. The aura of these islands is so thin that they can only be used by monks in the foundation-building stage for training.
The spiritual veins of second-class islands are much richer and can provide the daily needs of monks in the alchemy stage, but they are much rarer in number, with only a few hundred.
The island with the highest level of spiritual energy is called a first-class island. The spiritual energy is strong enough to cultivate Yuanying Stage monks, which is no less than the spiritual energy occupied by Wu Lei Sect, Lingfu Sect, and even Changchun Temple.
Interestingly, according to the map of the East China Sea collected by Yan Siyun, the closer to the coast, the greater the proportion of third-class islands, and in deeper waters, the number of second-class islands and first-class islands also increases, giving
People have a feeling that the further away from the mainland, the richer the spiritual energy becomes.
"It seems that the spiritual energy of the overseas world is indeed richer than that of Yunhuang Continent, otherwise the island's spiritual energy would not be distributed like this." Yuan Ming thought to himself.
The number of first-class islands is rare, there are only thirteen in the entire East China Sea, and each island is guarded by Nascent Soul Stage monks, who are powerful and powerful.
Among the thirteen first-class islands, the most powerful island is called Fuso Island.
This island is named after a huge hibiscus tree that grows on the island. The hibiscus tree is an ancient sacred tree and is said to be the habitat of the three-legged golden crow that can transform the sun in ancient times.
There is no trace of the ancient Golden Crow. The hibiscus tree on Fuso Island is naturally not comparable to the sacred tree in ancient times. However, there is a fire spirit monster that is suspected to be the Golden Crow and is inhabited on that hibiscus tree. It is extremely powerful and has already been
After reaching level five, no one in the entire East China Sea can defeat him.
Fortunately, that golden crow bird has a docile temperament and lives peacefully with the people of Fuso Island. There has been no news of it actively harming anyone in so many years.
The master of Fuso Island is also very powerful. He has reached the late Nascent Soul stage and is powerful in the East China Sea.
"Fuso Sacred Tree! I have read records in the classics. It has incredible power. I never thought that such a sacred tree actually exists in Yunhuang Continent! There are also monsters that are suspected to be Golden Crows. The foundation of the East China Sea Immortal World is really unfathomable." Yuan Ming saw it.
Here, I couldn’t help but say.
"What! Fuso sacred tree!" A voice came from the spirit beast bag, and flower branches popped out of it with a look of surprise on their faces.
Yan Sijing and Xi Ying had both seen Huazhi and didn't pay much attention to it. However, Yan Siyun came into contact with Huazhi for the first time and explored it a few more times with her spiritual sense.
"Why, you also know about the Fuso sacred tree?" Yuan Ming asked.
"When I absorbed the blood willow and refined the last trace of its soul, I squeezed out a lot of secrets from it. There are some memories about the Fuso sacred tree. Master Shura once obtained a piece of the Fuso sacred tree. What about you?
The bracket of "Hundred Ghosts at Night" is made of this wood." Huazhi said.
Yuan Ming's eyes were filled with surprise, and his consciousness sensed the bracket of the Hundred Ghosts at Night. The aura was indeed very unique, and he couldn't tell what material it was made of.
"The Fusang tree is a close relative of the World Tree, known as the ancestor of all trees. It has a trace of the original breath of all trees. It is not afraid of any attack from the five elements such as gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. The magic weapon refined with the Fusang sacred tree can withstand all the five elements' spiritual power.
Attack, especially good at restraining all wood attribute magical powers." Huazhi continued.
Hearing this, Yuan Ming nodded slowly.
"You actually know about the World Tree?" Xiying had been sitting there quietly. Hearing this, Liu's eyebrows couldn't help but raise.
"This is what Master Shura told the blood willow plant," Huazhi said.
"What's so special about the World Tree, which is called the ancestor of all trees?" Yuan Ming asked curiously.
"The World Tree is said to be the spiritual root of chaos that was born at the beginning of the world. It is known as the source of all trees. All wood-attribute creatures in the world are derived from the World Tree. It is rumored that the Fusang tree is the first batch of trees derived from it.
It is a wood spirit, so it has incredible abilities." Huazhi said.
When Xiying heard this, his expression did not change, as if he already knew this.
Yuan Ming, Yan Siyun and others were amazed when they heard such ancient secrets, which opened their eyes a lot.
"Master, please take me to Fuso Island and help me sneak into the Fuso tree. As long as I can enter this tree and absorb the huge wood spirit energy in it, I will be able to break through to the fourth level or even the fifth level.
Changchun Temple, Wuyue Sect, I can wipe them all out for you! Moreover, Master, your Nine Yuan Jue is also a wood-attribute skill. If you can get a piece of the wood heart of the Fusang sacred tree, it will be of great benefit to your practice!" Huazhi looked towards
Yuan Ming said excitedly.
"Let's talk about it then." Yuan Ming said noncommittally. He knew the abilities of Hua Zhi and was extremely good at sneaking around. With his help, he might not be able to sneak into the Fusang tree.
"Fellow Daoist Yuan, this matter may not be that easy. Although I have never been to Fusang Island, I have heard that Fusang Island attaches great importance to the Fusang tree and monitors it very strictly. There are many restrictions placed on the entire giant tree, and there are Nascent Souls all year round.
With the monks in charge and the golden crow monster living in the hibiscus tree, it is very difficult to get close." Yan Siyun noticed that Yuan Ming seemed to be moving and hurriedly persuaded him.
"What are you, a woman who is in the foundation-building stage, interrupting at random? How can you imagine the magical powers of Master and me!" Hua Zhi was furious and scolded.
Yan Sijing had an angry look on her face, but Yan Siyun looked calm, showing no signs of joy or anger.
"Huazhi, don't be rude." Yuan Ming frowned.
Huazhi then closed his mouth.
"Fuso trees are so precious. It stands to reason that Fuso Island will be careful to prevent intruders. I'll think about this again," Yuan Ming said.
"Yes." Huazhi agreed reluctantly and retracted the spirit beast bag.
"Fellow Daoist Yan, we all know about the fusang tree. What specific information have you found about the golden crow monster?" Yuan Ming looked at Yan Siyun and asked.
"That Golden Crow monster has been missing for many years, and I haven't been able to find any more specific information." Yan Siyun shook her head and said.
"I went to Fuso Island a few years ago and saw the Golden Crow monster. This beast's supernatural powers are astonishing and should not be underestimated." Xiying suddenly said.
"Sister Xiying, have you been to Fuso Island? What's the situation there? That Fuso tree is really towering into the clouds, blocking out the sky. Is the Golden Crow Spirit Bird really a fifth-level monster?" Yan Sijing asked curiously.
"The condition of the Fumulus tree cannot be described in words. If you are lucky enough to go there in the future, you will know it at a glance. As for the strength of the Golden Crow, I have only seen it from a distance. I cannot be sure of its true strength, but it is definitely not inferior to Yuan
Otherwise, we would not be alive today." Xiying said with a strange look in his eyes.
When Yuan Ming saw Xi Ying's expression, his heart suddenly moved.
Xiying's soul transformed into a spiritual bird that resembled a three-legged golden crow. Could it be that the blood used for the transformation was taken from the spiritual bird on Fuso Island?
Sisters Yan Sijing and Yan Siyun were present, so Yuan Ming didn't want to ask any more questions, so he left it at that.
The following part of the jade slip introduces the situation of the monks in the East China Sea. In addition to the human race, there are also strange races of human-monster hybrids. The more powerful ones include the sharks, snakes, and water apes.
The Shark Tribe and the Water Ape Tribe are relatively gentle in temperament, while the Snake Tribe is much more violent, killing people frequently and hating the Human Race.
The strength of the three alien races cannot be underestimated. Each of them occupies a first-class spiritual island. Moreover, the three races have different talents. They have the dexterity and brains of the human race and the innate magical powers of the demon race. Their combat power at the same level is better than that of ordinary human monks.
There are few, especially in underwater combat.
The three tribes formed an alliance with each other, and the islands controlled by the humans did not dare to push too far, and the two sides basically maintained a state of peaceful coexistence.
The jade slips also record the appearance characteristics of the three major ethnic groups, as well as the magical powers they are good at.
"There are indeed alien races in the East China Sea. The person I saw in the city before should be a member of the Shark tribe." Yuan Ming thought to himself.
The jade slips record only brief and important information at the beginning, but they start to get more detailed at the end, recording the specific conditions of thirteen first-class islands, hundreds of second-class islands, and thousands of third-class islands in quite detail.
"Fellow Daoist Yan is indeed an expert in collecting information. For ordinary people to collect so much information, it would take years at least. It may not be so detailed, but it only took you a few months." Yuan Ming was very satisfied with Yan Siyun.
.
"Fellow Daoist Yuan, thank you very much." Yan Siyun smiled faintly.
For her, since she was planning to settle Baidanfang in the East China Sea, she naturally had to find out a lot of information.
"This jade slip is of great use to me, can I keep it?" Yuan Ming asked, holding up the jade slip.
"Of course you can." Yan Siyun said without hesitation.
"Thank you so much, fellow Taoist Yan. Baidanfang must have lacked funds to establish its business in Dragon King City. Here are five hundred thousand spiritual stones as a reward for this jade slip." Yuan Ming took out a bulging storage bag and put it in
on the table.
"This..." Yan Siyun couldn't help but take a breath.
Baidanfang escaped this time, but its vitality was severely damaged. Most of the wealth accumulated in the past years was plundered by Ancestor Lei Ming, and the assets that could be used were only more than 100,000 spirit stones.
This was because Yan Siyun had foreseen the disaster earlier and moved it ahead of time.
More than 100,000 spirit stones may be a lot for a monk in the alchemy stage, but they can be used to maintain the operation of a medium-sized chamber of commerce, but it is really not enough.
She was considering selling off some of her temporarily unused assets in exchange for spiritual stones for emergency use. Unexpectedly, Yuan Ming reached out and gave half a million spiritual stones, which really solved their urgent need.
