Xiao Lingyu's group of three weren't Nirvana Realm cultivators, but they had to hunt Nirvana Soul Realm moon-attribute sea beasts. Even with the help of the eight-sided Nirvana Flame Sealing Formation, it was still a bit difficult for them.
They didn't dare to wander through the Lost Trace Islands recklessly, so they could only slowly advance into the depths of the islands.
Every time they advanced a certain distance, the three of them would stop and find a small island to set up the eight-sided Nirvana Flame Sealing Formation. Then Ling 'er would go out to search for their targets.
While searching for their targets, Ling 'er relied on his powerful perception of energy fluctuations to find a lot of places with hidden treasures.
These treasures were either collected in caves left behind by past cultivators or natural treasures formed by the heavens and earth. In any case, they had a bountiful harvest each time.
When Ling 'er found a place with hidden treasures and took all the treasures, Miling felt like he was dreaming.
Not to mention when he was poor, even now, Miling's wealth was very ordinary. To be able to obtain so many life jewels and treasures in such a short period of time was something he could only dream of. He never thought that the scene in his dream would really appear in reality. He couldn't help but secretly rejoice that he had introduced Xiao Lingyu to the Awakened God Pavilion.
Xiao Lingyu narrowed his eyes and said, "It looks like there were a lot of cultivators who settled down in the Lost Trace Islands to cultivate."
Miling nodded and said, "It should be. Otherwise, where did all these caves come from?"
"In that case, this Bewildering Maze Sea shouldn't be like this in the past. It's just that there were some unforeseen events that caused this place to gradually become like today."
Miling replied, "That's about right."
Xiao Lingyu speculated, "There shouldn't be any problems on the surface of the Lost Trace Islands. The key to the problem should be in the depths of the sea or even at the bottom of the sea."
Miling smiled and said, "Hehe, this should be something those powerful cultivators consider. We don't have to worry about it. This is beyond our ability."
Xiao Lingyu looked at Miling and said with a smile, "If you don't consider the things that experts consider, I'm afraid you'll fall into mediocrity for the rest of your life, and you won't be able to obtain great opportunities. As the saying goes, riches and honor come from danger. If one continued to silently cultivate like cultivators of the same level and painstakingly accumulate experience, not only would the time taken to cultivate be countless times longer, it might not be truly safe. The longer he cultivated, the more problems he would encounter. Who knew when he would be killed because he had angered an expert? In any realm, which expert relied on the accumulation of years and months of cultivation to reach the peak? Which expert didn't once experience things that ordinary cultivators didn't and didn't dare to experience when they were weak? Which expert didn't rely on great opportunities to reach the peak? "
Miling wrinkled his brows. After muttering to himself for a long time, he said, "That seems to be the case. The World of Immortals is a multitude of living things, and there are countless Immortal Realm cultivators. Logically speaking, everyone doesn't have to worry about their lifespan. With endless lifespan, the number of cultivators in the World of Immortals should be increasing. But take that gourd island for example. After countless years, the number of cultivators on that island hasn't increased by much. It seems like there have always been that many cultivators. "
Xiao Lingyu followed and said, "If the number of cultivators continues to accumulate without decreasing, the World of Immortals will definitely lose its balance. One Immortal Realm cultivator might not occupy a lot of resources, but countless Immortal Realm cultivators will definitely consume a lot of resources every day. If this kind of continuous consumption without replenishment continues for a long time, even a realm like the World of Immortals will collapse sooner or later. This is not allowed by the natural laws of heaven and earth. Therefore, the natural laws of heaven and earth will definitely eliminate a portion of the cultivators, or it can be said that a portion of them will be imperceptibly wiped out. The majority of this portion should be the weak ones, and a portion should be the strong ones. This should be a portion of the natural laws of heaven and earth. The fool thinks that when you reach the Immortal Realm, you can truly live forever. In reality, it's just a joke to think that you can live as long as heaven and earth when you reach the Immortal Realm. Only by constantly climbing up to the peak of strength can you have the possibility of being immortal and indestructible. Being unknown and honest won't last long. You still have to worry about being bullied by the strong. Rather than that, it's better to risk your life and make yourself a strong person. "
"Haha, Brother Xiao is still the one who sees things clearly!" Miling seemed to have a feeling of seeing the sun after the clouds parted. His laughter actually became a bit more open-minded.
Soon after, Miling's heart suddenly moved. Then, he sat down cross-legged.
He sat down for close to twenty years. Miling actually didn't move at all in the same place, as if he had entered a mysterious state because of Xiao Lingyu's few words.
Twenty years later, Miling slowly opened his eyes. When he looked at Xiao Lingyu again, there was a bit more gratitude and admiration.
"Congratulations Brother Mi for successfully advancing to the Eighth Celestial Layer." Xiao Lingyu cupped his fist and congratulated.
"I still have to thank Brother Xiao for your guidance."
Miling also cupped his fist and bowed. Then, he said, "This time, I've reached the Eighth Celestial Layer. When I go back and supplement my cultivation with my Life Jewel, my cultivation will naturally break through. Understanding the natural laws of heaven and earth, just a little bit more is enough for us Immortal Realm cultivators to greatly improve. It's really incomparably mysterious and profound. "
Ordinary Immortal Realm cultivators would first cultivate to the peak of their realm and then supplement their Life Jewels with demonic beasts that were one level higher than them to seek a breakthrough. This time, Miling unexpectedly obtained an epiphany and raised his soul realm by a level.
If it was in the past, Miling would definitely be happy for a long time after obtaining an unexpected breakthrough. However, after listening to Xiao Lingyu's words, his entire person was filled with fighting spirit, and there was a bit more ambition and dissatisfaction.
During these years when Miling was raising his realm, Xiao Lingyu and Ling 'er had to be by his side to guard him. Naturally, they didn't have any gains in terms of Life Jewels or treasures.
However, although his wealth didn't continue to expand, his gains in other aspects were still not small.
First of all, in terms of cultivation, because he could absorb the Life Jewels of demonic beasts below the Nirvana Realm without limit and absorb their energy and comprehension, Xiao Lingyu's realm was already not inferior to a Ninth Celestial Layer cultivator. He could be considered to have reached the late Tenth Revolution Chaotic Creation Realm.
After all, he had previously obtained thousands of Life Jewels of demonic beasts above the Sixth Celestial Layer. Just the Life Jewels of demonic beasts above the Ninth Celestial Layer were absorbed by Xiao Lingyu. It was reasonable for him to be able to obtain such an improvement.
Those demonic beasts' Life Jewels condensed the demonic beasts' essence. Ordinary cultivators who absorbed demonic beasts' Life Jewels would not only improve their realm, but also their cultivation. However, the energy in those Life Jewels couldn't improve Xiao Lingyu's Chaos Origin Force at all. Xiao Lingyu could only use it on his body to improve the quality of his body and enrich his life essence.
The improvement of his realm was only one aspect. Apart from that, Xiao Lingyu also made another important discovery.
Once when he paused his cultivation, he placed a piece of Yang Crystal and a piece of Moon Crystal in his hand to study. First, he calcined them with the Primal Chaos True Fire, then corroded them with the Chaos Origin Force, and finally added some special formations, which actually made him very surprised.
The energy overflowing from the Yang Crystal and the Moon Crystal, which had been refined by many methods, could actually gradually fuse and form a very pure Chaos Origin Force.
This discovery made Xiao Lingyu wild with joy, because it solved the problem of Xiao Lingyu being unable to quickly improve his cultivation.
Xiao Lingyu finally studied it carefully and gradually understood. The Yang Crystal was clearly pure Yang energy, while the Moon Crystal was actually Yin energy. If the energy formed by the fusion of Yin and Yang wasn't Chaos Origin Force, then what was it?
It was just that this Chaos Origin Force was actually Chaos Origin Force, which made Xiao Lingyu a little surprised. After studying it in depth, he figured out the reason.
When Xiao Lingyu was in the Lower Realm, when he wanted to create Chaos Origin Force, he had to use his own Chaos God Force to fuse with the Heaven and Earth's Mighty Force. However, the Immortal Realm's Yang Crystal and Moon Crystal originally contained the Heaven and Earth's Mighty Force, so when they fused together, they could directly create Chaos Origin Force.
After all, the Immortal Realm was a higher realm than the Immortal Realm. The energy crystals here were naturally more special and of higher quality than those in the Immortal Realm.
Xiao Lingyu could also be considered to have understood another point, which was why the Immortal Realm's cultivators needed to rely on the Yang Crystal and Moon Crystal's Life Jewels that were one level higher than their own. It was because the Yin and Yang energy worked together to help the cultivators balance their state and realm, thus allowing them to advance steadily.
However, the amount of Chaos Origin Force that a Yang Crystal and a Moon Crystal could produce was too little. Adding on the fact that there wasn't much time, Xiao Lingyu couldn't create too much Chaos Origin Force, so his cultivation didn't increase by much.
They had stayed on this small island for too long. After Miling woke up and familiarized himself with the Immortal Realm's Eighth Celestial Layer, everyone continued to advance into the depths of the Bewildering Maze Sea.
Although there wasn't much time, Xiao Lingyu was still very patient and continued to advance at a neither fast nor slow pace.
Ling 'er still acted as the vanguard. She found a lot of hidden treasures and the treasures inside were plundered.
In the blink of an eye, another thirty years had passed. Everyone still hadn't found a Nirvana Soul Realm sea beast. However, Xiao Lingyu and Miling's shift had come to an end.
After hesitating for a long time, everyone still decided to go back first.
Before they came, the Lord Manager had told them that they only had a hundred years. If they didn't meet any targets or things that couldn't be done, everyone should quickly return.
According to the method taught by the Lord Manager, everyone really easily left the Bewildering Maze Sea. Then, they drove the blue boat at full speed towards Gourd Island.
The blue boat's speed couldn't compare to the Yun and Sang Families' ships. It took them nearly fifteen years to reach the shore of Gourd Island.
Putting away the boat, everyone took a detour and entered the city from the north gate of Gourd Island.
The Yun Family didn't know that Xiao Lingyu had left the city. Naturally, they didn't think that Xiao Lingyu would return from overseas. Therefore, Xiao Lingyu and the other two entered the city very smoothly. They quickly arrived at the residence in the north of the city.
The residence didn't change much. Miaoying and Xiao Lingyu's wives and friends had been cultivating in their own rooms. In the years that Xiao Lingyu went out to sea, the Yun Family didn't try to attack the residence. However, the Lord Manager came to visit a few times.
