The loss of Watertown (Added for monthly ticket)_3 Chapter 658: 283: Joining forces to cheat!
The loss of Watertown (Added for monthly ticket)_3 Chen Dengming was unconcerned with how others perceived the situation.
He focused on controlling his clone to begin plundering the treasures in Watertown.
This blessed land was originally an unclaimed territory first discovered by his Longevity Sect.
Later, it was occupied and turned into Watertown by the Heavenly Dao Sect.
...
Its revelation in such a manner now was a waste of resources.
It lost its merit for being a place of inheritance.
The hidden tier-3 Spirit Veins underground were going to waste as well.
The Spirit Veins were too large.
Even if he could drain them, he wouldn’t be able to haul them away blatantly.
Occupying this place would likely draw the attention of powerful local Immortal factions and his identity would be hard to hide.
If his identity was exposed, not only would he lose this blessed land, but he would also earn a reputation for violating the Four Seas agreement, which would bring trouble to his sect.
The Longevity Sect, wanting to establish itself in the East Immortal Sea, now had to find undiscovered blessed lands.
These lands should be recorded with an Audio-Visual Bead as a token of testimony.
Only after submitting the token to the Four Seas Cultivation Alliance could they settle.
An approach where they compete with many cultivators from the East Immortal Sea to gain this land is considered a breach of the agreement.
Under the watchful eyes of several Loose Cultivators and Clan Cultivators who were unwilling to leave, Chen Dengming quickly cleaned out the treasures in Watertown.
…
The resources inside Watertown mainly consisted of valuable Array Plates and Spirit Grass that were evidently planted by humans.
Aside from that, there were Array Flags that controlled the Watertown and several thousand top-tier Spirit Crystals stored there.
This was not a small harvest.
The cultivated Spirit Grass itself was worth a fortune.
They were centuries-old herbs that were planted more than three hundred years ago.
The thousand-year Water Lingzhi that Qiao Zhaoxian took might have been five to six hundred years old when it was planted.
If he had allowed the cultivators from the He family and many Loose Cultivators to rush in and fight for the resources, unless Qiao Zhaoxian exploded with power, he wouldn’t have been able to take all these resources; it would be very difficult.
After collecting the treasures, Chen Dengming controlled his clone to penetrate into the depths of the coral reef, looked at the tier-3 Spirit Vein filled with spiritual energy, and sighed.
Even though the tier-3 Spirit Vein was less compare to those in the Longevity Sect’s base, it could serve as the foundation for a Nascent Soul power, which was very precious.
Unfortunately, it is exposed now and cannot be occupied.
He wondered who would benefit from this.
If you asked him to destroy and take away this tier-3 Spirit Vein, Chen Dengming wouldn’t be ruthless enough to do it.
He was not that desperate yet.
If he did this and his identity was exposed, he would face severe sanctions from the Four Seas Cultivation Alliance for ruining the Spirit Vein.
With regret, Chen Dengming swiftly commanded his clone to leave.
From beginning to end, his true body did not move a finger, yet he dominated one side and seized all benefits.
In this way, he not only avoided risks but also saved his true body from appearing and causing a fuss.
…
Half a teacup’s time later.
On a barren island more than six hundred miles away.
A few spiritual lights gathered here.
In the air, the brilliance of the Bead of All Gold flashed.
Spun around, it displayed the figure of Chen Dengming wearing a bamboo hat.
Out of the other two spiritual lights, a Martial Incarnation and a Heavenly Incarnation emerged, standing on the left and right, following the descent of Chen Dengming’s figure.”
Below the barren island, Qiao Zhaoxian looked enviously at the two clones next to Chen Dengming: the Martial Incarnation and the Heavenly Incarnation, and said with a tsk.
“Unexpected, so unexpected.
The “Revised Showering Blossoms Skill” given to you by Elder Shangguan turned out to have such power?
Two False Core Incarnations.
If I had known earlier, I would have also shamelessly learnt it.”
When Chen Dengming landed on the beach, he gave Qiao Zhaoxian a sidelong glance, “At that time, didn’t you mention it?
Did Elder Shangguan listen to you?”
Qiao Zhaoxian’s face stiffened, feeling a bit embarrassed.
Indeed, he did talk about it at the time, but he was directly ignored.
“Alright.”
Shrugging off his embarrassment, Qiao Zhaoxian approached him, rubbing his hands together with a sly grin, “Regardless, we cooperated well this time!
Old buddies indeed.
We understand each other well.
Let’s share the spoils now.”
“What spoils?”
Chen Dengming was shocked, “Didn’t you take your share?
The thousand-year Water Lingzhi has been taken by you, and you still want my things?
This blessed land was initially discovered by my Longevity Sect.”
Share the spoils?
At the mention of this, he got upset.
If it weren’t for Qiao Zhaoxian’s tricks, this blessed land would’ve become the footing of the Longevity Sect.
Although the tier-3 Spirit Vein is a bit lacking and the surroundings are unfamiliar, they would at least have found peace here.
Live on and cultivate for over a hundred years, he would’ve grown into a strapping Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.
Now, it’s all gone.
“Old Chen!
Are you really trying to cheat me?
You’re trying to swindle me?
Your Heavenly Dao Sect’s Ancestor discovered Watertown and even arranged a Formation.”
Qiao Zhaoxian’s face darkened, as it seemed that Chen Baimao was indeed trying to swindle him, reminding him of the days when he used to follow Qiao Zhaoxian.
Chen Dengming raised his eyebrows, flaunted the Longevity Sect’s map of the blessed land, quickly put it away, and flexed his fists.
“I have the map as proof!
But I can’t let you see the map.”
Qiao Zhaoxian’s eyelid twitched as he looked at the two False Core Incarnations standing guard next to Chen Dengming.
Right!

A wise man knows when to retreat.
Now that Chen Baimao had the upper hand, he had the say.
Thinking that he would need Chen Baimao to take care of his injuries, Qiao Zhaoxian immediately put on a smile again, approached him, flattery gushing out of his mouth.
“Heh, heh, heh, Old Chen!
You’re being too touchy.
I was just joking with you.
These little resources wouldn’t even cover your appearance fee.
How could I quibble with you over that?”
“Eh?
Are you still sulking?
Tsk!
Are you taking it to heart so much that you need to be coaxed?
Shouldn’t knowing that I’m grateful be enough?”
…
