Moreover, the Hai Clan occasionally needed some things from the land.
That is why the Hai Clan had a friendly mindset.
At that time, the Northern Cultivation Realm sent people, which also meant they had friendly intentions with the Hai Clan.
After all, there were exotic treasures in the sea that were also beneficial to cultivators.
The spiritual object Qin Changqing had obtained from the Merman Race last time was simply planted by the merpeople.
That was far from all that the sea had to offer.
There were still many things in the sea that were not only useful to water cultivators, but also to other cultivators.
Therefore, it wasn’t likely that the cultivators of the Northern Region would cause trouble at that time.
Thus, the war tens of thousands of years ago probably had a third party who benefited in secret.
As to who this third party was, it wouldn’t be easy to find out due to the passage of time.
Qin Changqing didn’t have much interest in unraveling the truth either.
As a traverser, Qin Changqing had a detached mindset. After figuring out the general situation, in his view, there was no need to continue the grievances from tens of thousands of years ago.
He didn’t want to fight a life-and-death battle with the Hai Clan now over something that happened tens of thousands of years ago.
How uninteresting.
Moreover, his daughter was destined to become the Queen of the North Sea. If the Hai Clan were annihilated, his daughter’s position as the Queen would be
nothing more than an empty title.
So, after finding the Holy Artifact Fragment, he handed it to Bai Ling without any conditions or demands.
Soon after, Qin Changqing returned to the Bixia Sect and handed the remaining beads back to the Nascent Soul Elder in charge of the sect’s storage, Elder Huang.
The sect’s hierarchy varied. The same level of strength meant different statuses.
In the Shuiyue Sect, elders were at the Golden Elixir Stage.
In the Bixia Sect, there were several Nascent Souls, and only a Nascent Soul Stage could become an elder.
After returning to the Qin Mansion with Biyao, Qin Xiaoyue arrived.
“Husband, there is another opportunity on the Wordless Stele,” said Qin
Xiaoyue.
“Oh, what is it?” Qin Changqing asked.
These years, with Qin Changqing’s help, Qin Man Yue had grown rapidly, and she was currently at the Middle Golden Core Stage.
She no longer served as the National Master of the Warring State, but stayed in the Qin Mansion.
However, she spent most of her time cultivating.
Her spiritual root was Tier 6, and with Qin Changqing’s help, reaching the Nascent Soul level wouldn’t be difficult, and she even had a certain chance of reaching the Deifying level.
Although Tier 6 was not impossible to reach Deifying, the difficulty was much greater than Tier 5, and the probability was extremely small.
A huge amount of resources was required for cultivation.
“It should be the location of an ancient Immortal Gate in the Northern Region, ” said Qin Xiaoyue.
Another ancient Immortal Gate?
Qin Changqing became interested, and this time, he did not intend to share it with others.
The ancient Immortal Gate would take some time to open.
However, news came from Bai Ling.
After taking the Holy Artifact Fragment back, all the members of the Hai Clan were delighted.
The Merman Race gained the Hai Clan’s approval.
Their status also greatly increased from this event.
The Hai Clan’s plan to attack the Bixia Sect again was also canceled.
The members of the Hai Clan began to prepare to recreate the Holy Artifact.
Recreating the Holy Artifact was challenging.
The Holy Artifact was not a magical treasure, but a functional one.
It was a treasure that could rejuvenate a force or a region.
Like the Eye of the Northern Sea.
For example, the Holy Artifact in the Holy Land not only monitored the birth of Immortal Spirit Roots but also served as the treasure of the Holy Land.
Of course, to be called a Holy Artifact, the minimum requirement is that it should reach the level of a top-grade treasure.
On this occasion, the Hai Clan discovered many treasures in the underwater ruins, and some of the members wanted to give it a try.
“What a pity.”A few months later, Qin Changqing’s voice sounded in an Immortal Gate Encounter Site.
This Immortal Sect Ruins was not as advanced as the previous one, and it might have been just a Nascent Soul Immortal Gate in the past.
The location was also close to Mangcang Mountain, all the people inside had been dispersed, and not much was left.
However, there were still quite a few things left in the Catholicon Garden, which must have been low-level spiritual herbs that hadn’t been plucked in time.
In addition, after Qin Changqing blasted open the mountain, he discovered a Zi Ling Stone Mine underneath.
The harvest was quite decent.
“Xiaoyue, move this Wordless Stele and put it in Shuiyue Sect. You should also cultivate in the Shuiyue Sect,” Qin Changqing thought for a moment and said.
“Husband, why?” Qin Xiaoyue curiously asked.
Qin Changqing said, “This Wordless Stele should be able to reveal some opportunities or previously emerged techniques in the surrounding areas, you can try it there.”
This was a guess that Qin Changqing made based on the changes in the Wordless Stele.
“Alright!”
Tai Feiyue naturally believed in Qin Changqing’s words without a doubt.
Moving the Wordless Stele was not easy, and Qin Man Yue had to let the Wordless Stele touch the ground every once in a while. It took her several months to move the Wordless Stele to the Shuiyue Sect.
Shuiyue Sect was now close to the center of the North Region, and it was uncertain whether the Wordless Stele could find any more opportunities in the North Region.
The North Region was very powerful tens of thousands of years ago, which could be seen from the Ancient Immortal Gate site. There might have been quite a few people above the Nascent Soul stage.
There might have been many undiscovered opportunities in the North Region.
Shuiyue Sect had now become Qin Changqing’s second home, and the concubines he took in at Shuiyue Sect basically lived there.
After spending three happy months in Shuiyue Sect, Qin Changqing set off again and returned to Qin Mansion.
As soon as he returned to Qin Mansion, Qin Changing saw a graceful figure.
Youyue had finally returned.
“Husband!”
After not seeing each other for more than twenty years, Youyue looked even more attractive.
She pursed her lips and giggled, leaving a hint of longing for Qin Changqing in her eyes.
Then, Qin Changqing embraced her, and his hands…
They expressed their longing with the most intense actions.
Youyue allowed Qin Changqing to take the lead.
It wasn’t until several hours later that Youyue had a chance to speak with Qin Changqing.
“Husband, I heard you’ve reached the Deifying stage?” Youyue asked.
Qin Changqing pinched her nose, “Youyue, you’re already at the Nascent Soul Complete stage?”
Youyue’s progress this time was indeed substantial.
In these thirty-odd years, she had actually rushed from the Nascent Soul Mid-stage to the Nascent Soul Complete stage.
How much power did she pull from the Heavenly Demon?
However.
Her biggest tribulation had also arrived.
It would be too dangerous for her to try breaking through to the Deifying stage.
That Tribulation Thunder would be ten times, no, perhaps dozens of times more powerful than what Qin Changqing had faced!
In this world, Tribulation Thunder was like this, aiming to kill any Demon Cultivator.
This was also normal.
If there wasn’t such a restriction, the whole world might have been ruled by Demon Cultivators.
By then, there would be chaos everywhere, with no order, war and killings, and perhaps billions of people would be taken by some Demon Cultivators for sacrifices every few days.
This chaotic world wouldn’t be great.
“Still, my husband is more powerful. I took the shortcut of nine deaths and one life, while you really cultivated up from there,” Youyue’s words were more pleasing to hear.
Therefore, Qin Changqing decided to reward her.
Another hour later.
Youyue brushed her messy hair behind her ears and said, “Husband, you’ve reached the Deifying stage.”
It’s just right. This time, I brought someone who has always wanted to break free from the restrictions of another Demon Sect..
