Chapter 59: The Devil’s Sea
"Go and find out who dares to harm a direct descendant of the Long family in the Starry Sea!" Long Zheng's face darkened as he looked at the people Li Changsheng had left on Moon Island.
"Elder Zheng, according to what they've said, that person is at least a Golden Core cultivator. The Golden Core cultivators in the Starry Sea wouldn't dare to harm a direct descendant of the Long family. Could it be someone from one of those two families?" a peak Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Long family whispered.
"No matter who it is, even a dragon must bow its head when it comes to the Starry Sea! Even if it is someone from one of those two families, the Long family has nothing to fear!" Long Zheng's expression was icy as he spoke coldly.
The kidnapping of Long Haotian, a direct descendant, wasn't a major issue for him. The most critical matter was that Long Haotian's fiancée, Zheng Xuanyue, had been taken. Long Haotian was the most talented among the younger generation of the Long family and was currently in seclusion attempting to break through to the Golden Core stage. Moreover, Long Haotian's father was the current head of the Long family. If he couldn't rescue Zheng Xuanyue, he might be implicated.
"Elder Zheng, rest assured. As long as this person hasn't left the Starry Sea, they won't escape the grasp of the Long family!"
...
Meanwhile.
Li Changsheng's ship was already heading toward the Devil's Sea. He had added several formations to the ship to conceal its presence. Even if a Golden Core cultivator's divine sense swept over it, they would have difficulty detecting the ship.
Only Nascent Soul cultivators or someone who saw the ship with their own eyes could discover it.
But the sea was vast, and the chance of encountering someone was extremely small.
Li Changsheng sat cross-legged on the deck. After instructing Ximen Xue in her cultivation, he directly opened the simulation panel.
He still had eight simulation opportunities left. Although he had killed several Foundation Establishment cultivators and confiscated the storage poulets of Zheng Xuanyue and Long Haotian, the amount of spirit stones on them wasn't much—only a little over 100,000. After depositing them, he gained one more simulation opportunity.
Since Ximen Xue's aptitude was so exceptional, capable of guiding her to the fourth revolution of the Divine Demon Nine Revolutions, could he use this opportunity to advance his own Divine Demon Nine Revolutions?
"Start the simulation."
[Simulation begins.]
[At twenty-one years old, you brought Ximen Xue to the Devil's Sea and found the legacy of the Nascent Soul cultivator.]
[Within the legacy, you guided Ximen Xue in her cultivation.]
[Half a month later, Ximen Xue successfully reached the first revolution of the Divine Demon Nine Revolutions!]
[At twenty-two years old, Ximen Xue reached the peak of the first revolution.]
[At twenty-four years old, Ximen Xue entered the second revolution.]
[At thirty-eight years old, Ximen Xue entered the third revolution.]
[At seventy years old, Ximen Xue entered the fourth revolution, and the Divine Demon bloodline in her body was successfully activated, allowing her cultivation speed to soar!]
[At one hundred and seven years old, Ximen Xue successfully entered the fifth revolution and gained a deeper understanding of the Divine Demon Nine Revolutions. She began guiding you in your cultivation.]
[Under Ximen Xue's guidance, your progress in the Divine Demon Nine Revolutions accelerated rapidly.]
[At one hundred and fifty-five years old, Ximen Xue entered the sixth revolution.]
[At one hundred and fifty-nine years old, powerful cultivators from the outside world discovered the location of the legacy. Ximen Xue took action, killing two Returning Void cultivators and eleven Nascent Soul cultivators, which attracted the attention of three Harmonized Spirit cultivators.]
[Ximen Xue fought the three Harmonized Spirit cultivators alone, severely injuring them with a single move. The three Harmonized Spirit cultivators activated a secret treasure to teleport tens of thousands of miles away, barely surviving.]
[A month later, the mysterious young man and Elder Su arrived, intending to take Ximen Xue away. Ximen Xue refused, and she fought both of them alone, holding her ground!]
[In the end, the mysterious young man activated a secret treasure and killed both of you!]
[You died!]
[Simulation ended. You may retain one of the following.]
[1. The cultivation realm at the age of 159.]
[2. The combat experience at the age of 159.]
The Divine Demon Nine Revolutions at the sixth revolution is this strong?!
Even when the mysterious young man and Elder Su joined forces, they could only fight Ximen Xue to a draw!
Li Changsheng's eyes burned with excitement!
However, the mysterious young man from the Vajra Sect should not be underestimated. He has many hidden cards.
Even Ximen Xue, who had reached the sixth revolution, couldn't withstand a single strike from that secret treasure.
Moreover, the location of this legacy should be quite well-hidden. In previous simulations, even when he tried to evade, outside experts would eventually find him. This time, it took until the age of 159 for them to discover it!
"Choose option two!"
As Li Changsheng made his choice, the energy of qi and blood surged within him. He could clearly feel the strength within his body increasing, bringing him one step closer to the mid-fourth revolution.
...
The others on the deck didn't notice the changes in Li Changsheng's body. Only the seven-year-old Ximen Xue showed a look of confusion. After cultivating the Divine Demon Nine Revolutions, she had become highly sensitive to fluctuations in qi and blood. Just now, she felt as though her master's qi and blood had grown stronger.
'Indeed, Master is the true powerhouse. With just a bit of cultivation, his strength increases so much!'
Ximen Xue's gaze became determined. The joy she had felt from gaining a few hundred pounds of strength after cultivating the Divine Demon Nine Revolutions for a few days vanished.
'What's a mere few hundred pounds of strength? In the future, I must become a powerhouse like Master!'
Ximen Xue resolved inwardly.
Her cultivation became even more diligent!
...
Li Changsheng didn't notice the changes in Ximen Xue, but even if he had known her thoughts, he would only have smiled.
"Again!"
At this rate, it wouldn't take many more simulations for him to reach the mid-fourth revolution.
[...At one hundred and fifty-nine years old, you were killed by the mysterious young man with a secret treasure.]
...
[At one hundred and thirty-one years old, you successfully reached the mid-fourth revolution.]
[At one hundred and fifty-nine years old, you and Ximen Xue were killed by the mysterious young man with a secret treasure.]
It took five simulation opportunities.
Mid-fourth revolution achieved!
...
Ximen Xue, who was sitting cross-legged beside Li Changsheng cultivating, slightly opened her mouth. Although she had only recently begun cultivating, she knew that the higher the realm, the longer it took to make progress.
But what had she just witnessed?
In just a few breaths, her master's aura had grown stronger, and his qi and blood had surged!
'Indeed, someone like Master is a true cultivation genius. I must not become complacent just because I have dual spiritual roots!'
Ximen Xue silently motivated herself.
...
"Only two opportunities left. It's impossible to make another breakthrough now. I'll save them for emergencies."
Li Changsheng thought to himself. Turning his head, he saw Ximen Xue cultivating with a solemn expression.
Li Changsheng nodded.
Indeed, the reason Ximen Xue could reach the sixth revolution in her 100s wasn't just due to her Divine Demon bloodline but also her own hard work!
At that moment.
Xie Zhicheng came onto the deck and clasped his hands toward Li Changsheng, saying,
"Senior, we've arrived at the Devil's Sea!"
