He didn’t rush to wake Liu Xinyue up, as the presence of the mermaid was still a secret for now since she was brought out by Qin Changqing from the Immortal Sect Ruins.
At that time, Qin Changqing didn’t tell anyone about it either.
Seeing that Qin Changqing had stopped talking, the mermaid could only sit in the crystal coffin and silently wait.
Her gaze continued to examine the surroundings, occasionally revealing a trace of sadness.
Five days later, the whirlpool still hadn’t disappeared, but Qin Changqing did receive another big reward.
His descendants finally reached 300,000.
He gained another 3,000 years of cultivation and an additional 0.1% chance for his descendants to be born with a better spiritual root.
This percentage was much smaller compared to the chance of merely having a spiritual root offspring.
Although small, as long as the base number is large enough and the time is long enough, the increased chance will be very useful.
Qin Changqing wasn’t worried about his lifespan now and didn’t dwell on this point.
He didn’t rush to claim the 3,000 years of cultivation.
Because his spiritual root should be upgrading soon, he planned to wait until it reached the fifth rank before claiming the 3,000 years of cultivation.
Otherwise, with a sixth rank spiritual root, it would be difficult to even advance a single level in the Nascent Soul Late-stage after 3,000 years of cultivation.
If he had a fifth rank spiritual root, however, that should be enough.
After a few more days, the whirlpool finally seemed to disappear.
“It’s ready, you can open the Array Formation for a moment, and I’ll open a path for you.
The mermaid sent a message through her divine sense.
Qin Changqing opened a gap in the Array Formation.
The mermaid formed hand seals and performed a spell, quickly opening a passage.
Qin Changqing sent his divine sense out and confirmed that he could indeed leave from here.
At this time, the mermaid formed hand seals again, opening up another area.
Qin Changqing saw that it seemed to be similar to the Immortal Sect’s
Catholicon Garden, with numerous peculiar underwater plants growing inside.
“You’ve been kind to me, and whether or not you’re willing to let me restore my cultivation, you can take half of whatever is in here,” said the mermaid.
Half?
Qin Changqing’s divine sense explored the area and found that the things there had been growing for an equally long time as those in the Immortal Sect
Ruins.
He wasn’t familiar with the underwater spiritual plants and didn’t know if their levels were high or not.
But he guessed that they probably weren’t high.
Because this Merman Race’s area had obviously been abandoned by the remaining mermen, and all the good things must have been taken away.
The reason for the abandonment was simple.
Back then, the Hai Clan must have been driven back, with heavy casualties and injuries.
Although this place was far from the North Region, it was ultimately less than 20 days away for those above the Nascent Soul stage.
So it would no longer be safe for the remaining Merman Race to live here.
The merman had preserved this place very well before giving it up, probably because they couldn’t bear to destroy it.
There was also a factor of wanting to preserve it for the mermaid to return to later.
“There are some Kuishui Beads in here as well. This Great Array gathers energy over time, and outside elements will eventually form Kuishui Beads. However, there are more beads inside, and you can take half,” added the mermaid.
At this point, the mermaid opened another area.
When Qin Changqing looked in, there were beads similar to the ones in Liu Xinyue’s possession, but far more numerous.
It seemed that they had all formed after being sealed here for tens of thousands of years.
“What’s your identity?” Qin Changqing asked through his divine sense.
The mermaid could easily open not only this place but even places similar to “Catholicon Gardens,” as well as the sections where the Kuishui Beads were stored.
She had once been a Deifying cultivator, so her status among the mermen must have been quite high.
“I am the North Sea Merman Princess. You can call me Bai Ling,” replied the mermaid.
Qin Changqing didn’t rush to pick the stuff inside.
He was considering whether or not to let the mermaid restore her cultivation.
Since she had already opened the passage, he could actually pick half of the things inside and then leave her to restore her cultivation.
Even if the items inside were of low level, their extremely long growth period would still make them quite valuable.
Moreover, there was also a wealth of Kuishui Beads.A Tier 4 Nascent Soul like Liu Xinyue was willing to take such a big risk for a Kuishui bead.
Qin Changqing could get dozens of them all at once.
Some of them were even much larger than the one Liu Xinyue had in her hand.
For those who cultivate water-based techniques, this Kuishui bead must be a treasure.
Mengmeng also needed it.
Of course, it would be a waste for Mengmeng to use it now, at least until she reached the Golden Elixir or even Nascent Soul stage.
The only problem was whether she would still attack the North Region after recovering her cultivation base?
Qin Changqing thought about it, and the possibility seemed slim since tens of thousands of years had passed.
Moreover, her words seemed quite credible to Qin Changqing.
However, there was still a certain amount of risk.
He hadn’t made up his mind yet.
At this moment, suddenly.
“Boom-I’
The space trembled.
Qin Changqing’s divine sense swept through, and a large number of Sea Beasts appeared outside.
The Mermaid reacted quickly, quickly forming seals to close the passage.
She moved her hand again, and the external scene floated in the air.
Sea Beasts had appeared densely outside.
Not only Sea Beasts but also some peculiar-looking people appeared.
No, they were not human, they only had a human upper body, and their lower body was a snake.
“Snake Race.”
Qin Changqing uttered softly.
The Snake Race of the Hai Clan was also one of the Sea Tribes that had invaded the North Region in the past.
“Finally found the ancient land of the Merman Race, destroy everything nearby, and I’ll use the Earth Spirit Beads to blast this place open,” said a strong-looking Snake Man.
Qin Changqing understood this voice.
It seemed that the current Sea Tribe and the North Region spoke the same language now.
Following his voice, the Sea Beasts began to destroy the seabed outside.
“Boom-I’
Outside the Jiao People’s Land, Sea Beasts had already begun to destroy the area.
The method used by these Snake People was simple and crude, but it was somewhat effective against such a Natural Feng Shui Array.
That was to thoroughly destroy the surroundings.
If the cultivators of the North Region really wanted to solve the Yuan Magnetic Barrier, they would have a way.
That would be to dig up Taixuan Peak.
Taixuan Peak had a minimum height of 10,000 feet, and it would be a huge undertaking to dig it up, but if the entire North Region took action and spent a lot of time, it could be done.
Then the Natural Feng Shui Array formed on Taixuan Peak would naturally be destroyed.
But the cultivators of the North Region would never do that, even if they were full.
Even for Cultivators, digging up a mountain that stretches tens of thousands of miles and reaches a height of 10,000 feet was no easy feat.
Moreover, once the mountain was excavated, the rampant Yuan Magnetic forces would affect the entire North Region.
Even the Deifying cultivators were unwilling to touch the Yuan Magnetic Barrier, and digging up the mountain could accidentally cause a lot of casualties.
It was much easier to deal with this place.
A large number of Sea Beasts would destroy the surroundings, then use those Spiritual Beads to break the Array open. It was indeed possible.
According to the Five Elements restraining rule, earth restrains water.
This Natural Feng Shui Array primarily used the power of Kuishui.
The Mermaid slightly furrowed her eyebrows.
Although she was at the Deifying stage, her current strength was not that of a Deifying cultivator.
The Snake People outside were aggressive, and among the Sea Beasts they brought, there were even Tier 4 Sea Beasts.
They themselves were definitely not weak.
“There shouldn’t be any Deifying cultivators.”
Qin Changqing came to a conclusion.
There shouldn’t be any Deifying cultivators among these guys. If there were, their imposing manner would be different..
