He walked around the hall and found a lot of people selling jades. He bought more than a dozen jades, and each one only cost about 50 mid quality spirit stones.
After browsing through all the jades, he had a more comprehensive understanding of the Black Sea and the 17 island chains.
Every island chain was ruled by an expert, who was known as the Chief Minister.
The head that controlled the 3,400 islands of the 17th island chain was a peak Nirvana Shatterer cultivator called Li Qi.
The Black Sea was the same as the continent. The spiritual energy distribution was not balanced, and the competition for resources was fierce. The sea areas controlled by the head were generally peaceful, and people could rent or even buy islands to cultivate.
Furthermore, there was also a certain description of Gu Yao.
They only knew that Gu Yao was in the Black Sea, but no one knew his exact location. Gu Yao's power had seeped into the spirit veins of the Black Sea, so he could cultivate with half the effort.
The jade also emphasized that for foreign cultivators outside the Sea Clan, cultivating Gu Yao's spiritual energy in the Black Sea would increase the risk of cultivation deviation. It was best to wear or take various calming treasures and pills to ensure that one's mind wouldn't become chaotic.
Yang Qingxuan pondered for a bit before going to the registration office to go through the procedures.
The Black Sea's management of foreign cultivators was very messy, and they never asked about a cultivator's identity. However, if one wanted to rent or buy an island, they needed very detailed information.
After waiting in line for several hours, it was finally Yang Qingxuan's turn. He walked into a luxurious room filled with all kinds of sea creatures. There were all kinds of strange corals, jewelry, shellfish, fish specimens, and so on.
A man wearing a brocade robe and a jade belt was sitting before a jade table. He raised his head and casually asked, "Rent or buy an island?"
Yang Qingxuan said, "Rent or buy, what's the price?"
The man sized him up and smiled. "You just came to the Black Sea, right? Which plane are you from?"
Yang Qingxuan said, "I came from the Immortal Continent."
The man nodded and said, "Immortal Continent, no wonder you landed in this part of the sea." As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a treasure map flew out. It expanded in the air above the house, and immediately revealed a scene of the sea.
Yang Qingxuan was shocked. This illusion was very realistic. It was as if he was facing the sea, and he could even feel the waves rushing towards him.
Islands of various sizes began to appear in the seascape. There were thousands of them, and they were gold, silver, yellow, black, and red. They covered all the islands and the sea.
On many of the islands, there was a small flag-like symbol hanging in the air.
The man said, "Gold represents the place with the strongest spiritual energy, followed by silver, and then yellow. Black islands and sea areas basically have no spiritual energy and are not suitable for cultivation. Red is a dangerous area, either with sea beasts or strange things. As for the places with small flags, they have already been selected."
Yang Qingxuan looked around and saw that almost all the golden areas were filled with flags. Outside the sea, it was a gray and hazy area.
The man added, "Outside the island chain, it is either the Unnamed Sea or other island chains. They are not under our jurisdiction."
Yang Qingxuan's gaze landed on the southwest corner of the sea. That place was dyed red, like mottled plum blossoms. There were hundreds of islands mixed in. Most of them were black and had no spiritual energy. Among them, there were a few that had golden spiritual energy. No one occupied them.
The man saw where his gaze was and smiled. "This part of the sea is called the Black Flame Horn. The spiritual energy is very rich, but … as you can see, it is surrounded by dangerous areas."
Yang Qingxuan sighed. "But it is also because of this that the best spiritual energy islands are empty. There are no candidates."
The man smiled strangely and said, "It is not that there are no candidates, but the candidates … are all dead. That is why there are empty spots."
Yang Qingxuan, "…"
The man smiled. "Think about it carefully. Do you want to choose? Actually, places with silver spiritual energy are also quite good, and the price is much cheaper."
Yang Qingxuan asked, "How big is the spiritual energy difference between the two types of spiritual islands?"
The man said, "The spiritual energy density difference is about 30%."
Yang Qingxuan's face turned ugly. "30%, and that is not big?"
The man laughed. "Then you can go to the other island chains to take a look. However, the seventeenth island chain is already at the edge of the Black Sea. The other island chains are probably even more crowded."
Yang Qingxuan thought for a while and asked again, "The Black Sea is vast and boundless. Have all the high-grade spiritual energy islands been occupied?"
"Of course not."
The man smiled. "In fact, there are still many islands and sea regions that are uninhabited and have not been developed. However, the dangers in the sea are far from what the land can compare to. There is a saying, 'If you can go up the mountain, don't go down the sea'. To put it bluntly, with your ability, if you go to the unknown sea region, you will most likely die. "
Yang Qingxuan's face turned ugly. He stared at the Black Flame Horn. He was not willing to choose a second-grade spiritual island. After a moment of daze, he said, "What kind of danger is there in the Black Flame Horn? Didn't the Chief Secretary check it out? "
The man snorted and said disdainfully, "Where would the Chief Secretary have the time to put himself in danger for a few islands? Hurry up, there are still many people waiting behind. "
Yang Qingxuan took a deep breath and said, "This Black Flame Horn then." He pointed to the island in the sea region with the brightest golden light.
The man smiled. Without saying anything, he pointed in the air and marked a small flag. He then kept the sea view map and said, "Rent or buy?"
Yang Qingxuan said, "What are the prices?"
The man said, "100 million mid-grade spiritual stones if you buy. 10 million mid-grade spiritual stones for a year if you rent."
Yang Qingxuan was stunned. He said, "The prices don't seem right. If you buy, it should be a permanent property right. Why is it only a ten-year rental price?"
The man looked at him with a smile and said, "Within ten years, you will either have broken through to a higher level and left or have died in the Black Sea. Even if you are given a permanent property right, will you live on the island? Even if you really live on the island, you might meet a stronger opponent one day and take your life. This island will then be taken back. "
Yang Qingxuan broke out in cold sweat. Fortunately, he asked. Otherwise, he might have really bought it. He immediately said, "Let's rent it. Rent it for a year and renew it after a year."
The man shook his head and said, "The rent starts at three years. No, one year."
Yang Qingxuan was helpless. He could only pay 30 million mid-grade spiritual stones. When he left the Jade Ming City, Hua Qing gave him 1 billion mid-grade spiritual stones and tens of thousands of Desolate Pills. Otherwise, he could not afford to rent this island.
Then, the man took out a milky white jade token and said, "Imprint a strand of divine sense in it and make it your life jade token. As long as you die, we will know and take back the island."
