After solving the problem of the spirit vein, Wang Daoyuan had nothing else to deal with for the time being. Thus, he returned to his underground cave residence to cultivate.
However, the heavens were not on his side. News came from the West Sea that there were traces of a rank 5 demonic beast.
A rank 5 inferior-grade demonic beast came ashore from the West Sea and attacked the Archaic Arcanum Sect's property.
The human race's reinforcements were not in time and were unable to take it down.
The Archaic Arcanum Sect lost two Golden Core cultivators and one of their offshore properties was severely damaged.
It was not a good sign for such a thing to appear in the West Sea.
The most frightening thing was that this beast was not a tortoise type demonic beast, but a Hui Dragon.
Although the Hui Dragon's lifespan was not short, its lifespan was not as long as a rank 5 tortoise type demonic beast.
A rank 5 Hui Dragon's lifespan might exceed ten thousand years, but it would not exceed that by much.
A demonic beast would need a few thousand years to reach the rank 5 realm from birth.
If it broke through the rank 5 ten thousand years ago, it would not be possible for it to survive until now.
If it was a demonic beast from ten thousand years ago, it might be very powerful, but there would not be many of them.
After all, not all demonic beasts could hibernate for ten thousand years.
If it broke through later, it would mean that there was rank 5 spiritual energy in the West Sea.
This would be troublesome. After so many years, how many rank 5 demonic beasts would there be?
Furthermore, there might be many peak rank 5 demonic beasts.
Peak rank 5 demonic beasts might not be stronger than Old Master Huang.
However, it would be difficult for Wang Daoyuan to deal with such a level of strength.
If there were more peak rank 5 demonic beasts, the human race would not be able to deal with them.
With the appearance of this rank 5 inferior-grade Hui Dragon, there might be a large number of rank 5 demonic beasts appearing in the West Sea. Wang Daoyuan had to make preparations to head to the West Sea.
Seeing his serious expression, Zhou Luan asked, "What's wrong? Why do you look so pale?"
Wang Daoyuan sighed, "A rank 5 inferior-grade Hui Dragon appeared in the West Sea. It attacked one of the Archaic Arcanum Sect's properties and killed two Golden Core cultivators."
Zhou Luan frowned and thought for a while, "It is very difficult for a rank 5 Hui Dragon to live for so long. This Hui Dragon should have broken through to the rank 5 later on.
The West Sea might have always had a Rank 5 spirit vein. Of course, the Hui Dragon might have been lucky and found a Rank 5 spirit item that had been left behind.
Are you going to leave again and go to the West Sea? "
Wang Daoyuan nodded his head and said, "It's hard to say now. If this Drake is really lucky and managed to find a spiritual item left behind over ten thousand years ago, then there won't be too many fifth-order demonic beasts in the West Ocean.
With Master, the Exquisite Pagoda, and my Black Ice Tortoise clone, guarding the West Sea shouldn't be too big of a problem.
If the West Sea really had a Rank Five Spirit Vein, then there would be a war between the races.
This was also very easy to distinguish. If more non-turtle type Class 5 Demonic Beasts were to appear in the West Sea, they would be able to confirm that there was a Class 5 Spirit Vein in the West Sea.
In order to prevent the situation at the West Sea from worsening, I left in a hurry. I have to make preparations now. "
"After I leave, you will continue to oversee Jadespring Peak.
I'll leave the two puppets to you. That Sword Puppet is also my clone. It can handle things on its own. I'll let it oversee the Green Willow Secret Realm.
As for the other puppet, you can use your Divine Sense to control it to fight enemies.
However, the spiritual power inside the puppet is limited. I've placed three Spirit Gathering Pearls inside the puppet, which is equivalent to six high-grade spirit stones.
If it's used up, it won't be able to fight for a short time.
If it's placed near a Class 4 Spirit Vein, it'll take a month to completely recover.
I'll leave Jadespring Peak and Clear Glass City to you.
Also, leave my clone Jia Qi behind. You don't have to worry about him. I'll let him oversee Wan Chuan Market. "
Zhou Luan nodded. "Don't worry. Although my strength is far inferior to yours, it won't be a problem for me to help look after the family business.
If there's an enemy I can't deal with, I'll think of a way to send a message to you.
Now that our relationship has been made public, Blood Shadow already knows about it.
They haven't made any moves, so I can still use Blood Shadow's information system as I wish.
It seems that group of old fellows have tacitly agreed.
When you leave, bring along the command medallion of the Northern Mountain Branch's Vice Hall Master. If there's any urgent news, it'll be faster to send a message. "
Wang Daoyuan smiled and said, "Don't be so anxious. What kind of situation is still undetermined. Let's see the situation first.
Right now, there's no Class 5 Spirit Vein, so the cultivation speed is too slow. Let's make the best use of the time to cultivate. "
In the next few months, Class 5 demonic beasts would occasionally appear in the Western Sea, but they didn't cause too much damage.
Apart from that Hui Dragon, there was also a giant python and a Class 5 low-grade mixed-blood Roc.
Three demonic beasts that weren't known for their lifespans appeared in a row. It couldn't be that each demonic beast was lucky enough to coincidentally encounter a Class 5 Spirit Vein.
It seemed that there really was a Class 5 Spirit Vein in the Western Sea.
Although there hadn't been a request for help, Wang Daoyuan didn't plan to wait any longer.
The demonic beasts were already showing signs of coming ashore. These three demonic beasts might just be scouting.
Only after figuring out the strength of the human side could they make a move.
Once they made a move, it would be a disaster.
By then, it might be too late to ask for help.
Wang Daoyuan took out a storage bag and handed it to Zhou Luan. "The demonic beasts might invade the Western Sea at any time. I have to hurry over and prepare.
Otherwise, once the demonic beasts invade, the Archaic Arcanum Sect might not be able to wait for my help.
There are twenty Spirit Gathering Pearls inside. If you encounter a Class 5 demonic beast and the puppet doesn't have enough spirit energy, change the Spirit Gathering Pearls for the puppet. If there's anything you don't understand, ask Jia Qi.
There are forty Nascent Cultivating Elixirs, thirty Nine Death Resurrection Elixirs, and twenty vats of Hundred Fruit Wine. I'll leave the clan's side to you. "
Zhou Luan kept the storage bag and smiled. "Don't worry. When you went to the Sea Of Seven Stars, before Honored Teacher came over, I've been guarding the clan's side."
Wang Daoyuan hugged Zhou Luan and took advantage of her before leaving amidst Zhou Luan's scolding.
The shore of the Western Sea was less than a million miles away from the Jade Spring Peak. It would only take a few days by flying on a Class 5 high-grade flying boat.
South of Mount Huiyan, there were still many mountains over ten thousand feet tall. If he wanted to cross over, he would have to go deep into the Nine Heavens Astral Wind layer.
The flying boat was not like a flying warship. Its hull was not strong and could not withstand the destruction of the Nine Heavens Astral Wind.
North of the mountain, there were no tall mountains blocking the way. To avoid detours, he went from the mountain's north.
Three days later, the flying boat arrived at the shore of the Western Sea.
Looking up, there were many large and small white reefs in the sea.
There were also many rocky islands in the distance. The vegetation on the islands was not very lush.
The concentration of spirit energy in the sea was denser than on the shore.
Wang Daoyuan sensed carefully and did not find any aura of the power of law.
Moreover, the spirit energy in the sea was somewhat violent.
It was similar to the spirit energy in the Southern Wasteland, but there were obvious differences.
The reason for the violent spirit energy was not explained in detail by the ancient powerhouses. Wang Daoyuan naturally did not have the ability to investigate.
He came from the mountain's north and was now tens of thousands of miles north of the Archaic Mysteries Sect.
The demon race was now at the stage of probing the human race. Naturally, he could not expose his whereabouts.
He put away the rank five flying boat and replaced it with a rank four mid-grade flying boat. He lowered his flying altitude and flew in the south direction.
His own spirit energy fluctuations were also suppressed to the late Aurous Core stage to avoid attracting the demon race's attention.
A few hours later, he arrived near the Archaic Mysteries Sect's mountain gate.
There was nothing special about the Archaic Mysteries Sect's mountain gate. It was built on a low mountain range that was only a few hundred feet tall.
Although this mountain range did not look impressive, it still had a large peak rank four spirit vein.
There were all kinds of formations on the mountain. With Wang Daoyuan's cultivation, he did not dare to barge in recklessly.
He took out the communication jade talisman and sent a message to his master, telling him that he had come.
Then, he sent a message to Daoist Master Xuan Tian, asking him to send someone to quietly pick him up and not reveal his whereabouts.
After a while, Xuan Jiuxiao came over sneakily.
When he saw Wang Daoyuan, he said intimately, "Brother is finally here. There are already three rank five demonic beasts on the demon race's side.
Father and Martial Uncle Lei Yan were considering whether to send you a message. Now that brother is here, we are relieved. "
