Chapter 845: Chapter 390: Meeting Yun Yao at Sea Abyss City

Heaven-Reaching Mist Sea.

After leaving Five Dragons Island, Lin Chang’an did not head directly to Sea Abyss City but first went to Heaven-Reaching Mist Sea.

On an island shrouded in dense yin energy, a disturbance erupted, ceasing after the time it takes to burn an incense stick.

"Master, it’s all taken care of."

The Phoenix Cry Bird flew over with a Yin Spirit Demon Pill in its beak, speaking excitedly, as if seeking praise for its efforts.

Seeing this, Lin Chang’an naturally understood the Phoenix Cry Bird’s intentions and waved his hand with a good-natured smile:

"Alright, you can eat this Yin Spirit Demon Pill."

"Gulp!"

As soon as Lin Chang’an’s words fell, the Phoenix Cry Bird emitted a swallowing sound from its mouth.

It eagerly swallowed it, seemingly afraid Lin Chang’an might change his mind.

Once the deed was done, the Phoenix Cry Bird, under Lin Chang’an’s speechless gaze, cheerfully said, "Thank you, Master."

In the distance, the Cyan-Horned Bull saw this scene, snorted, and its cow face showed a dramatic smirk, as if mocking the Phoenix Cry Bird’s greed.

"You silly bull, what’s with that expression?"

"Moo moo!"

"Greedy silly bull, no matter how much I eat, I won’t eat myself to death."

This action of the Phoenix Cry Bird exposing old wounds caused the Cyan-Horned Bull’s eyes to widen, mooing back in protest.

Meanwhile, the Twin-headed Tiger, seeing its two elder companions arguing again, lay down bored on the side, as if accustomed to the scene.

"Master!"

The Sword Servant, as if oblivious, sheathed his lightning-flashing sword and respectfully approached Lin Chang’an.

"Hmm, this time it’s almost cleaned up, just two places left."

At this moment, Lin Chang’an held the Heaven-Reaching Fog Sea Map he had drawn, marking it with a Spiritual Brush.

Since he was about to leave here, he couldn’t waste the yin spirit gathering places the Twin-headed Tiger had found in the Heaven-Reaching Mist Sea over the years.

Might as well clean them up and gather some resources.

Though these resources add up to a lot, compared to planning for Nascent Soul Spiritual Objects, they’re just a fraction.

"Roar!"

As a hoarse roar echoed, Lin Chang’an calmly put away the map and raised his head to see the three Yin Sha Refining Puppets behind him.

After years of nurturing, these three Yin Sha Refining Puppets had all reached Tier Three Middle Stage, but unfortunately, further advancement became increasingly difficult.

Thinking of this, Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. If Yin Sha Refining Puppets were so easy to cultivate, the Profound Yin Demon Sect would have long mass-produced corpse puppets.

As it stands, the speed of advancement of these three Yin Sha Refining Puppets was not slow.

This was mainly because of the excellent corpse-nourishing location of the Heaven-Reaching Mist Sea and the various resources fed to them.

Another point is the consumption of potential; without it, their rapid advancement wouldn’t have been possible.

After all, they’re just corpse puppets, naturally without concerns, unlike one’s own spirit pets, which can’t randomly consume indiscriminately to avoid overdrawing potential.

"Ling’Er, after we take care of the last two spots, we’ll head to Sea Abyss City."

"Yes, Master."

Then Lin Chang’an, along with the Sword Servant and the two spirit pets, swiftly sped through the depths of the Heaven-Reaching Mist Sea for the final harvest.

The Phoenix Cry Bird, long hidden, was bursting with pent-up energy, finally letting loose and frolicking freely.

...

Three months later, Sea Abyss City.

"Lin Array Master, Sixth Elder has gone to visit True Monarch Lu, but there is a message asking you to wait in the city. He will return before the Secret Realm opens."

In front of the grand hall, the Foundation Establishment Guard of Bihai Palace reported respectfully, requiring due respect for both Lin Chang’an’s cultivation and status.

"Thank you."

Upon reaching Sea Abyss City, Lin Chang’an reported to the Sixth Elder without delay.

However, after receiving the situation from the guard, Lin Chang’an respectfully clasped his hands and left.

"Master, with the Secret Realm about to open, many sects and forces under Bihai Palace have gathered in Sea Abyss City. I heard there’s going to be a transaction meeting soon."

Being somewhat familiar with Sea Abyss City, Lin Chang’an was not surprised upon hearing this from the Sword Servant, who gathered recent information on the city.

After all, every time a Secret Realm opens, Bihai Palace, leading others, will take many allied forces and sects to the Secret Realm.

"Let’s find an inn and wait for the Sixth Elder to return."

"Yes."

Cultivators often find places like caves for long-term cultivation, but for temporary stays, inns provide convenience and are often chosen.

Shortly after, the Sword Servant found an inn not far from the Treasure Pavilion.

As a Core Formation Late Stage Cultivator with the Identity Jade Token of the Sixth Elder, it was more akin to renting a standalone courtyard than simply staying at an inn.

Several days later.

"Finally have news."

On this day, looking at the Sound Transmission Jade Talisman in his hand, Lin Chang’an’s eyes flickered.

Yun Yao sent a message, asking to meet at the transaction meeting.

"With so many eyes around and Yun Yao choosing this place to meet, it seems her situation worsens as the Secret Realm approaches."

Now, even meeting requires such precautions, causing Lin Chang’an to become more serious.

However, upon thinking it through, if he were the old demon of Profound Yin, he wouldn’t want any distractions at this critical time either.

"A transaction meeting, looks like I need to attend."

This time, Lin Chang’an came here early to meet, appearing to flatter the Sixth Elder and to avoid unforeseen events.

It’s a perfectly reasonable action, unassailable from any angle.

Next is how the two will interact at the transaction meeting.

...

Half a month later.
