Chapter 1454: Chapter 1446: Refining the Black Tortoise Form
"I heard..." The two people in front of Chen Nan cautiously looked around, and whispered, "I heard there are Immortals on Floating Cloud Island!"
"Immortals?!" Chen Nan’s heart trembled fiercely: "Immortal... what realm are they?"
In the eyes of mortals, the various methods of Foundation Establishment cultivators are akin to immortals, so Chen Nan feels that immortals should be cultivators with higher cultivation.
The two people being questioned felt as if Chen Nan were a fool, not knowing anything.
But for the sake of the Spirit Stones, they patiently started to explain.
"An Immortal is at least in the Divinity Transformation Realm; otherwise, how could one be called an Immortal?"
"Divinity Transformation?!" Chen Nan’s heart trembled again. It’s known that in the Outer Sea and on the Nine Provinces Continent, the Nascent Soul Realm is the end point for cultivators, unable to advance further.
When the Demon Ancestor was released, he had mentioned that the Nine Provinces Continent seemed utterly incapable of breaking through to higher realms.
Now, in the Outer Sea, there are actually cultivators in the Divinity Transformation Realm; perhaps the suppression on the cultivators here doesn’t exist.
Chen Nan’s heart burned with excitement; if he could cultivate to the Divinity Transformation Realm in the Inner Sea, he could kill freely upon returning to the Nine Provinces Continent.
At this moment, his heart was more determined than ever.
"Where is Floating Cloud Island? If given the chance, I must pursue the fate of Immortals!"
"Floating Cloud Island is three billion miles east from here. Flying there is quite challenging, but there are teleportation arrays to that sea area; the price is just very high."
If he could go, Chen Nan thought to himself, then he nodded to the two in front of him: "Thank you for informing me; I have one more thing recently."
"Oh? What is it?"
"Among those descending demons, is there a fortune-telling human fat person?"
This suddenly reminded him of the Divine Calculator, since the Divine Calculator came to the Inner Sea with him as a human clan cultivator, it seemed appropriate to ask.
To his surprise, the two people in front of him shook their heads: "Sorry, we really don’t know about this. Even those demon clans descending from the sky were just something we heard from other people."
"Even so, thank you very much." Chen Nan nodded.
"No need for thanks." The two also quickly returned the gesture.
Now having learned news about the demon clan, Chen Nan was surely going to have a look, and he also needed to check out Floating Cloud Island; perhaps he could find the reason for breaking through the Nascent Soul Realm in the Inner Sea.
But all of this needed to wait until he obtained Taiyin.
Pressing his thoughts deep down, Chen Nan returned to the Spirit Talisman counter and bought that Sixth Grade Sealing Talisman; it was a pity there was only one.
Before long, the shopkeeper gathered all the materials and handed them to Chen Nan: "Customer, any other instructions?"
"No instructions; I just have a question. Do you sell the method for making sealing talismans?" Chen Nan suddenly asked.
The shopkeeper sighed upon hearing this: "Customer, sealing talismans are quite useless; they can only seal people weaker than oneself or heavily injured, or possibly used when capturing heavenly and earthly treasures."
"So, the shop only has one sealing talisman, and it was sold by a downtrodden cultivator; we don’t know the method for making it."
Chen Nan nodded: "I see, but I’m very interested in sealing talismans. If that downtrodden cultivator comes again, please ask him to leave the method; I’m willing to pay handsomely."
The shopkeeper’s eyes suddenly lit up: "Okay, okay, when that person comes again, I will definitely keep an eye out for you."
After paying for the Spirit Stones, Chen Nan brought Yun Ying to a small courtyard in the workshop, which he had rented earlier and was still within the lease period.
The courtyard only had a room; the space inside was quite spacious. Yun Ying noticed a circle of powder in the center of the room, hesitating as she recognized it as the remains of Spirit Stones after being absorbed.
Spirit Stone powder was common in cultivator’s rooms, but so much powder was unusual, a thick ring—who knows how many Spirit Stones were absorbed for this.
Following her gaze, Chen Nan chuckled: "I had a minor breakthrough before, so I used quite a bit more Spirit Stones."
"Quite a bit more?" Yun Ying felt the corner of her mouth twitch.
When Chen Nan came to rescue her, she knew Chen Nan had hidden his cultivation, but whose breakthrough requires so many Spirit Stones?
She seemed to understand why Chen Nan possessed such great strength.
"For now, stay here; if you need anything, let me know. I need to rest a bit."
Though Chen Nan saved Yun Ying this time and even killed Zhang Sen, his consumption wasn’t light. Just using Time Silk to freeze space nearly drained him.
It’s known that the space frozen contained four Golden Core Realm Perfect Cultivators and a Taiyin; moreover, he used the "Ten Thousand Ghosts Suppressing Soul Spell" to attack Zhang Sen, consuming a lot of Divine Soul Power.
To hold on until reaching the workshop was a testament to his unwavering determination.
Yun Ying waved her hands repeatedly: "I don’t need anything; it’s just... aren’t we supposed to leave here?"
They were indeed close to Moon River Valley, and Guo Qing and others could come at any time—they were fleeing. Shouldn’t they escape further while the enemy hasn’t caught up yet?
Chen Nan grinned: "Of course we won’t leave, because we still need to go back."
"Go back?" Yun Ying was startled: "Are you courting death? Even if you’ve killed Zhang Sen, the Sect Leader and two Elders are still there; their cultivation far exceeds yours!"
"So what? Let’s see if they can stop me!"
Yun Ying was immensely shocked and secretly thought to herself: "What kind of person have I been rescued by?"
