If Chu Shen's plan could really be realized, then there would be no need to worry about the safety of Peerless Island in the future. At that time, there would definitely not be any blind forces that would come looking for trouble.
This was because there would definitely be many industries on Peerless Island. In such an environment where the interests of various forces were intertwined, whoever dared to touch Peerless Island would be making an enemy of all the forces that had shops on Peerless Island.
Therefore, in the long run, it was a very wise choice for Chu Shen to turn Peerless Island into a commercial spiritual island.
The Soul Clan woman was still unwilling to communicate with Lu Ye. Ever since he brought her back from the auction on the Island of Versatility, Lu Ye didn't even know her name.
However, this woman had no intention of escaping or resisting. Usually, when Lu Ye stayed in the cave, she would sit quietly by the side, not making a sound or disturbing him, like a puppet.
Under persistent deduction, there was finally good progress in the Life Origin Technique. With this as the foundation, a new spiritual inscription was born. However, the effect of this spiritual inscription was somewhat strange. Without personally trying it, Lu Ye couldn't figure out its mystery.
Even Lu Ye himself couldn't figure out whether this spiritual inscription was useful or not.
There were thousands of spiritual inscriptions in the world. Although some spiritual inscriptions could be formed stably and could be constructed, they were actually useless. This type of spiritual inscription was generally ineffective. If it wasn't complicated, it was mostly used for practice by spiritual inscriptionists.
There was no suitable target to test it on, so Lu Ye could only put it aside for the time being. Fortunately, after this period of deduction, Lu Ye had some ideas on how to remove the Life Origin Technique. As long as he could return to the Nine Regions, he could try it.
After choosing the next spiritual inscription to be deduced, Lu Ye continued.
On this day, an uninvited guest suddenly came to the cave.
Lu Ye looked at the Soul Clan woman sitting in front of him, who was curiously looking at him. He frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
Although everyone was on Wushuang Island, Lu Ye didn't have much interaction with Ban Ci. The only interaction they had before was when Ban Ci first came to greet him.
Therefore, Lu Ye didn't know why she was looking for him.
It was undeniable that Banci was very strong. Not to mention other things, Lu Ye didn't understand the method she used to trap a cultivator from Yue Yao. He didn't even know how she did it.
Although that kind of trap didn't last long, and Banci paid a price for it, it was amazing that a constellation cultivator could do this.
"I want to ask you a favor." Banci retracted her gaze and said seriously.
"I'm not free!" Lu Ye flatly refused. They were not very familiar with each other. Moreover, according to Lu Ye and Chu Shen's speculation, BanCi should be secretly sent by Jiu Yan to protect Chu Shen. Even if such a person was not from the car bell industry, he must have a good background. What could he help with?
.................
..........
"What if I say I can give you a decent reward?" Half-ci looked at Lu Ye.
Lu Ye shook his head. "I don't lack spirit jades!" He still had eight million spirit jades, which was worth ten million spirit crystals. It was enough for him in a short time. When Peerless Island was on the right track and there were profits, he would still have income. At the very least, Chu Shen would give him the spirit jades from selling the Twin Breath Connected Branches array disk.
"What about this?" HanCi said as she flipped her hand, and an item appeared in her hand.
Lu Ye looked over and was slightly stunned because this thing looked very familiar to him. Moreover, he had seen a piece of it not too long ago.
Phoenix Skies Blue Crystal!
This Phoenix Skies Blue Crystal was bigger than the one he saw at the Island of Wonders auction. It was undoubtedly more valuable.
Most importantly, this thing couldn't be bought with money. Lu Ye asked Cao Xiang to keep an eye on it for so long, but only one appeared at the last auction.
Lu Ye didn't expect that after missing a piece of Phoenix Sky Blue Crystal at the auction, he would actually bring another piece to him.
He was not tempted. Instead, he became vigilant. "How do you know I need the Phoenix Skies Blue Crystal?"
Banci said matter-of-factly, "You're a weapon cultivator. Of course you need it."
That was true. No weapon cultivator would not care about the Phoenix Skies Blue Crystal when they were in the late Constellation stage. However, Banci was offering such a treasure as a reward. Clearly, her task was not simple.
After pondering for a moment, Lu Ye asked, "What do you want me to do?"
If it was something else, Lu Ye wouldn't be tempted. However, Banci's origins were mysterious and her methods were extraordinary. If even she needed help, it would be very troublesome. The Phoenix Skies Blue Crystal was indeed good, but Lu Ye would not put himself in danger for it.
"Accompany me to a place." Banci's words were concise.
"Tell me in detail." Lu Ye frowned.
After hearing Banci's explanation, Lu Ye finally understood what she wanted to do.
She was in the late Constellation stage and was preparing to become a Yue Yao. However, the biggest obstacle to becoming a Yue Yao was the conversion of one's spiritual power to magic power. This obstacle caused many Constellation cultivators to stop at the threshold of becoming a Yue Yao.
This conversion was very difficult to achieve by relying on a cultivator's own strength. Furthermore, it would take a very long time. Thus, cultivators would usually rely on external help during this process, such as spirit pills, miraculous medicines, or rare treasures.
However, spirit pills and miraculous medicines that could convert a cultivator's spiritual power were extremely expensive. As for rare treasures, they could only be found by chance.
The rewards from the Constellation Rankings were also a method. In terms of effectiveness, it was much better than any spirit pills or rare treasures.
This was also the reason why many veteran Constellation cultivators delayed their advancement and waited for the Constellation Hall to open. As long as they could leave their names on the rankings, they could borrow the power of the Constellation Hall to promote their Yue Yao.
Banci was preparing to go to a secret place. There was a power there that could help her speed up the conversion of her spiritual power. Thus, she needed a helper or a guard. This way, she could peacefully convert her spiritual power and not be disturbed by the outside world.
After hearing Banci's explanation, Lu Ye faintly felt that the matter was not so simple.
If Banci was really sent by Jiu Yan, she could have asked Jiu Yan for help if she wanted to convert her spiritual power. At that time, she could have just sent Yue Yao to accompany her. Why would she need to come to him and take out something like the Heavenly Phoenix Blue Crystal?
"Is that secret place dangerous?" Lu Ye asked.
Banci knew what he was thinking and explained, "It's a little dangerous for me because I need to withstand the power of that secret place. If I can't withstand it, I will definitely suffer a backlash. However, it's not too dangerous for you. However, there might be others entering that place, so I need to ensure that I won't be disturbed while I'm refining my spiritual power."
"You can ask Yue Yao!"
"I don't know Yue Yao, and I don't have anyone I can trust." Banci looked at Lu Ye with clear eyes.
Lu Ye stared at her expressionlessly, but he couldn't see any ripples in her eyes.
Could it be that he and Chu Shen's speculations were wrong? Was she not sent by Jiu Yan?
Thinking about it this way, if Banci was really sent by Jiu Yan, she shouldn't have left at this time. She should have stayed by Chu Shen's side, but in fact, she never did. She also didn't show any special care or concern for Chu Shen.
"Why me?" Lu Ye asked.
"You're strong enough!"
"Pu Ke is also strong enough!" In terms of strength alone, Pu Ke could be considered to be second to none in the Constellation Realm. Especially now, the cultivators that were ranked above him on the rankings had basically all entered the Constellation Hall to advance.
"Don't you know what kind of person Pu Ke is?" Banci glared at him angrily.
Lu Ye didn't say anything. Of course he knew what kind of person Pu Ke was. Although Banci was petite, she had a good figure and good looks. Recently, Pu Ke had probably chatted with her a lot.
Of course, Banci didn't want to choose Pu Ke.
"If you agree, when we come out of that secret place, this thing will be yours. If you don't, I can only think of another way." Banci casually tossed the Heavenly Phoenix Blue Crystal in her hand.
"Where is that secret place?" Lu Ye asked.
"I can only tell you that if we depart from here, it will take us about three months to reach it. As for the specific location … I can't say."
"When do we depart?"
"As soon as possible!"
Banci left. Lu Ye looked at the Soul Tribe woman sitting quietly by the side and walked out. "Come with me!"
The Soul Tribe woman didn't say a word and followed obediently.
The Heavenly Phoenix Blue Crystal was very attractive to Lu Ye. So, although he didn't understand why Banci chose him to protect her, he still agreed in the end.
With such a piece of Heavenly Phoenix Blue Crystal, when he advanced to Yue Yao in the future, the Pan Mountain Saber could also be upgraded to a supreme treasure.
However, before that, he had to make arrangements for this Soul Tribe woman. It was not convenient to bring her along. Although she had been quiet like a puppet, Lu Ye was sure that if he encountered any danger, this Soul Tribe woman would definitely find a way to hit him when he was down.
It had nothing to do with her character. If she wanted to escape, this was the only way.
Lu Ye didn't want to expose some of his special tricks in front of her, but he couldn't care less now.
He summoned his Star Boat, left the Myriad Phenomenon Sea, and arrived on a desolate planet. Lu Ye took out the Azure Sea Snail and blew it.
When the misty door appeared, a ripple finally appeared on the spiritas woman's calm face. She curiously looked at the door. Her deep eyes seemed to penetrate the door and see the world on the other side.
"Go in!" Lu Ye gave her a push.
The Soul Tribe woman stepped through the door, and Lu Ye followed closely behind.
As usual, they appeared in front of the Azure Sea Snail Hall. There were still two mermen guarding it. Lu Ye glanced at them and knew that he couldn't persuade them, so he activated his spiritual power.
After a short while, Great Elder Yan Miao sensed the commotion and arrived.
Usually, Bai Lu would be the first to come. However, she was currently cultivating with Ghost and couldn't be in two places.
"Great Elder!" Lu Ye bowed.
