Chapter 559: Chapter 285: A Ruin? Not Even a Dog Would Go!
Profound Sound Pavilion.
"Sect Leader, will the appearance of this ancient relic truly cause such a great upheaval?"
These relics naturally vary in size, just like in the Yue Kingdom. If it were the Blood Evil Master’s relic, at most it would only attract the covetous eyes of Golden Core cultivators.
Lin Chang’an traveled all the way to the main peak of the Profound Sound Pavilion to visit this Fairy Ni Chang.
In the elegant pavilion, this usually composed Fairy Ni Chang rarely showed a solemn expression and nodded lightly.
"It’s very serious; otherwise, the three of us factions wouldn’t have set aside our differences to choose to join forces, and this matter has already alarmed the Bihai Palace."
Listening to Fairy Ni Chang’s words, Lin Chang’an furrowed his brows.
Alarm Bihai Palace?
This time, the commotion is indeed significant.
As if perceiving Lin Chang’an’s confusion, Fairy Ni Chang gently blew on the Spirit Tea, took a small sip, and then began to explain the situation of the ancient relic’s emergence.
"Elder Lin, according to the depictions of the survivors when the relic was revealed, with the many anomalies on the island and those menacing stone statues,
this relic, if nothing unexpected, should be from the Yin Soul Sect a thousand years ago."
Fairy Ni Chang’s clear and gentle voice echoed softly, and after hearing this, Lin Chang’an was slightly taken aback.
"Yin Soul Sect!?"
Seeing this, a faint smile appeared on Fairy Ni Chang’s lips, as if she understood Lin Chang’an’s bewilderment, and with a wave of her hand, a jade scroll floated out from the study on the second floor of the pavilion.
"Elder Lin truly is an ascetic, usually only interested in collecting various exotic beasts and rare texts from the Immortal Cultivation Realm, somewhat neglecting the tumultuous history of the Demon Beast Abyss."
Fairy Ni Chang’s words carried no ridicule but were instead a reflection of her responsibility for reviving the sect, gradually cultivating such a cautious demeanor.
Normally cold, like Lin Chang’an, she also enjoyed reading some ancient texts, but she preferred studying the rise and fall over the millennia of the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
From which she sought ways to establish a stable foundation for the sect.
"Yin Soul Sect!"
Upon seeing the jade scroll, Lin Chang’an suddenly understood, but then his expression gradually became serious.
The jade scroll recorded that the Yin Soul Sect was a major sect a thousand years ago, with two Nascent Soul devils within.
But the good times did not last long. Six hundred years ago, during the chaotic period of the Demon Beast Abyss, the Yin Soul Sect dominated a region, even ruling the sea areas of Five Dragons Island and Xingji Island.
However, during the chaos, the Yin Soul Sect bizarrely disappeared.
The entire sect, along with the Yin Soul Island, vanished!
"The specific reason is unknown, but rumor has it that the two Nascent Soul powers of the Yin Soul Sect were great figures of the Demon Dao, with their cultivation reaching the Nascent Soul Middle Stage..."
Listening to Fairy Ni Chang’s words, Lin Chang’an suddenly understood why the three major forces of Five Dragons Island were so tense this time.
"A Nascent Soul relic that disappeared nearly six hundred years ago, even once an adversary of Bihai Palace, attracts too many eyes, even inciting greed in Nascent Soul cultivators."
Thinking of this, Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but grow solemn. Originally, the Five Dragons Island Sea Region was peaceful, and he, as a Golden Core cultivator, could still have a seat at the table.
If he got involved with the powers of Nascent Soul cultivators, with his level of cultivation, he would probably be nothing more than cannon fodder.
"Perhaps Nascent Soul cultivators will get involved, but a Nascent Soul sect relic alone is not enough to provoke a war."
Fairy Ni Chang gently shook her head, clearly aware of much intelligence.
This caused Lin Chang’an to nod secretly, indeed acknowledging the benefits of being within a major force.
Unlike him, a loose cultivator, reliant on himself for everything.
Fortunately, he could now be considered an honored guest elder of the Profound Sound Pavilion.
"The relic site Spirit Island, for some unknown reason, has sunk to the seafloor, and over the past six hundred years, the array has long connected with the island’s spirit vein, further linking with the undersea fire.
If forcibly broken, it would trigger the undersea fire, leading to disaster, and the relic would be destroyed in it..."
Listening to Fairy Ni Chang’s explanation, Lin Chang’an suddenly understood.
"So, under the tacit agreement of the major forces, Nascent Soul cultivators will not intervene directly."
"Correct, currently, the barrier of the relic has loosened, only allowing Qi Refining cultivators to enter. But this is undoubtedly a death sentence; we must wait until the barrier permits Foundation Establishment or even Core Formation cultivators to enter.
Only then will the true relic site battle begin, and during this time, we should seize the opportunity."
Continuously, cultivators flocked, and for the three native powers of Five Dragons Island, this was a huge business opportunity.
Fairy Ni Chang saw the opportunity for sect development, whereas Lin Chang’an realized that Nascent Soul cultivators would not engage.
This made him secretly breathe a sigh of relief; as long as Nascent Soul cultivators did not participate, he could cultivate safely in his own cave, without entering the secret realm.
This surely would stay safe, right?
"What does the Sect Leader mean?"
"Mr. Lin is a Tier Three Array Master; perhaps someone will come visiting then."
Fairy Ni Chang slightly lowered her eyelids, while her eyes watched the steaming Spirit Tea in her hand as she spoke, seemingly conveying something subtly.
"I possess a mere modicum of skill, but I am aware of my own limitations."
Lin Chang’an shook his head, straightforwardly revealing that he would not venture to the relic.
No matter how generous the spirit stone rewards, having the life to enjoy them is essential.
Having just formed his core and not being adept at combat, if he went there, how could opportunity possibly fall to him?
Believing others’ coaxing? He’d rather stay home and drink tea.
Moreover, undoubtedly, there will still be Nascent Soul cultivators watching the relic when the time comes.
Therefore, the relic? He’s not going! Not even a dog would go!
