Under the effects of that mysterious mist, Lu Ye could clearly feel his spiritual power being compressed and tempered. This was most likely the source of the transformation of spiritual power into magic power. Once the spiritual power in a cultivator's body was completely transformed into magic power, the cultivator would have the ability to evolve into Yue Yao.
Lu Ye had only recently ascended to the late-stage Constellation Realm. Furthermore, he hadn't cultivated properly since his ascension, so his bone marrow was far from being refined to its peak. There was still a long way to go before he could evolve into Yue Yao.
However, if the spiritual power in his body could become more condensed, it would also be beneficial to him. At the very least, it would be much easier for him to evolve into Yue Yao in the future.
Thus, even though Lu Ye felt the pressure, he didn't retreat. Instead, he continued to ascend.
Step by step, Lu Ye walked very slowly with each step.
It wasn't until an entire day later that Lu Ye finally reached the top of the stairs.
The mysterious stone cauldron was right in front of him. This thing wasn't very big, only about the size of a water tank. It rested on the highest step.
When he looked down, he could clearly see the mysterious mist emanating from the stone cauldron. Just as he had guessed, this stone cauldron was the source of this mysterious mist.
He spread his arms and hugged the stone cauldron. He tried to lift it up, but it didn't budge at all.
He couldn't help but increase his strength, but he still couldn't budge it in the slightest.
Lu Ye couldn't help but feel puzzled. He looked around and found that the stone cauldron didn't seem to be attached to the stairs. It was just sitting there, but for some reason, they seemed to have grown together.
Unwilling to give up, he summoned the Dragon Throne and tried again, but he still couldn't move it.
Lu Ye couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. As expected, if this thing could really be moved, it probably wouldn't have been left here for so long. HanCi had already thought of a way to move it.
He couldn't move the stone cauldron, and the mysterious mist emanating from the stone cauldron had already been exhausted. He didn't know when it would recover, so there was no need to stay here any longer.
Lu Ye exited the cave, summoned his Star Boat, determined the direction, and flew off into the depths of the Starry Sky.
He had come with the two of them, but now he was going back alone and helpless. Speaking of which, HanCi had invited him here to protect her so that she wouldn't be disturbed while she was refining her spiritual power. However, such a mishap had occurred instead.
The promised reward was probably gone as well...
Fortunately, he had recorded the route on his way here. Otherwise, he really wouldn't know how to return at this time.
It took him less than three months to get here, and it took him about the same amount of time to get back.
The entire journey was dull and tedious.
When Lu Ye returned to the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea and arrived at the Unparalleled Island, he almost thought that he had come to the wrong place. He took out the star map and compared it seriously. Only then did he confirm that the spiritual island in front of him was the Unparalleled Island.
Compared to when he left half a year ago, the current Unparalleled Island had obviously undergone earth-shaking changes.
The Spiritual Island was filled with streets and shops. Cultivators walked in and out from time to time. Although it was not as grand as the Island of Versatility, it was still quite lively.
This was especially true of one particular shop. Cultivators were lined up in a long line outside of it, but the strange thing was that the door of the shop was closed. It was clear that the shop was not open yet.
Lu Ye looked at the signboard of the shop and saw five words written on it.
Kindred Spirit Linking Branches!
Lu Ye immediately understood what this shop was selling.
It was obvious that Chu Shen was carrying out his previous plan to sell the Kindred Spirit Linking Formation Disc to attract the popularity of the Unparalleled Island. From the looks of it, it was undoubtedly very good.
How many constellations were there in the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea? However, there were not many treasures that could significantly increase the strength of a team. The Kindred Spirit Linking Formation Disc was the most well-known one. Although a few top forces had started to sell this item, the quantity was limited and the price was not cheap.
It could be said that as long as any force sold the formation disc, it would be able to attract a lot of popularity in a short period of time. The long line of cultivators was all for this reason.
The Unparalleled Island was obviously standing in the wind. The cultivators who were attracted by the formation disc became the popularity of the Unparalleled Island. With popularity, there would naturally be transactions. It was easy to use this to attract the major forces to set up shop on the Unparalleled Island.
At the moment, there were many shops on the Unparalleled Island. However, most of them were still empty. Only a small portion of them had opened for business. However, this was not a big problem. As long as the popularity of the Unparalleled Island could be maintained, the other forces would see the potential of the Unparalleled Island. Even if Chu Shen did not approach them, they would take the initiative to ask for cooperation.
In just half a year, the Unparalleled Island was obviously on the right track. As long as they could maintain this popularity and allow more forces to maintain a cooperative relationship with the Unparalleled Island, it would be difficult for others to have designs on this island in the future.
For countless years in the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea, there had never been a spiritual island that rose so quickly. The Unparalleled Island could be said to be the first since the beginning of time.
Lu Ye also saw three different ferry ports on the Unparalleled Island. The cultivators who came from the outside had to pass through the ferry ports before they could enter the island.
However, unlike the Ten Thousand Elephant Island, the Unparalleled Island was currently gathering popularity. Hence, the ferry ports had not started to collect spiritual jades.
Naturally, Lu Ye did not need to enter through the ferry ports. He had the nameplate of the Unparalleled Island and was considered a member of the Unparalleled Island. He could directly pass through the protective formation and enter the island.
The moment he entered the formation, Chu Shen, who was discussing cooperation with a group of representatives, sensed his presence. He could not help but be delighted. However, he could not leave for the time being and could only speed up the pace of the discussion.
After not returning for half a year, Lu Ye realized that the starry sky energy of the Unparalleled Island was much richer than when he left. Although it was still at the level of a middle-grade spiritual island, as long as this momentum was maintained, it would not take long for it to become a high-grade spiritual island.
At that time, the value of the Unparalleled Island would definitely be greater.
At this point, Lu Ye's plan to use the Minor Constellation Hall to create a spiritual island was considered a success. However, as to what the Unparalleled Island would eventually become, it would take a long time to observe.
A high-grade spiritual island was not far away. Whether it could become a top-grade spiritual island like the Ten Thousand Elephant Island was still unknown. As a top-grade spiritual island was related to spiritual jade mines, Lu Ye was not sure if the Minor Constellation Hall could achieve this.
Lu Ye was not in a hurry to return to his cave. Since he had nothing to do, he strolled around the shops.
In the past, if he wanted to buy anything, he would go to the Ten Thousand Elephant Island. However, in the future, if the Unparalleled Island had enough shops and goods, it would be more convenient for him to buy anything he wanted.
After walking around for half a day, Lu Ye realized that the shops on the Unparalleled Island had a wide variety of products. It was already quite impressive. Of course, it was still far from the Ten Thousand Elephant Island. However, this was just the beginning. At the very least, the Unparalleled Island could provide everything the cultivators needed for their daily cultivation.
There were also many cultivators doing business in the shops.
The cultivators of the Matchless Island were patrolling the area to maintain the peace of the island. However, with a mid-stage Moon Jade cultivator like Tang Jun overseeing the island, no one dared to cause any trouble, lest they bring trouble upon themselves.
Therefore, although the Unparalleled Island was quite popular now, everything was in order.
After walking around for a while, Lu Ye returned to his cave.
Thanks to Chu Shen's previous plan, the second half of the Unparalleled Island was not open to the public. Therefore, it was very quiet here.
After a while, Chu Shen ran over excitedly, "Big brother!"
Lu Ye nodded slightly and praised him, "Well done!"
Chu Shen smiled, "It's all thanks to big brother's strong support!"
If Lu Ye was not willing to let him stay here with Little Dumb and crooked teeth, he would not have anything to do with the Unparalleled Island. Not to mention that the popularity of the Unparalleled Island was basically gathered by the Twin Qi Connection Disk.
Without the disk array provided by Lu Ye, the Unparalleled Island was just a pure spiritual island. With the disk array, Chu Shen had the opportunity to build the Unparalleled Island into what it was now.
Chu Shen did not come to ask for credit. He just came to report the development of the Unparalleled Island in the past six months to Lu Ye.
Lu Ye was not interested in these. He just took out a storage ring and handed it to him.
On the way back, Lu Ye did nothing else except to deduce the spirit inscriptions and refine the disk array.
Chu Shen took it and inspected it, a look of joy appearing on his face. Not bothering to refuse Lu Ye, he happily put it away and said, "Big Brother, although there are some profits from selling Array Discs and the shops, I want to keep them and use them to develop Peerless Island first. When there are more profits in the future, I will share them with Big Brother, what does Big Brother think?"
"The Unparalleled Island is indeed in need of money. You can make the decision yourself." Although Lu Ye needed to spend some spiritual jades recently, the development of the Unparalleled Island was undoubtedly more important.
"Then I will do as I think!"
Lu Ye asked casually, "Is Banci back?"
Chu Shen said, "She is back! I asked her before why she didn't come back with you. She said you were delayed by something. "
Chu Shen knew that Banci left with Lu Ye. When Banci left at that time, she specifically told Chu Shen.
Speaking of Banci, Chu Shen lowered his voice and said, "Brother, what is the background of Senior Sister Banci? You have been with her all this time. Have you tried to find out if she was sent by my mother?"
Lu Ye shook his head, "I don't know. If you want to know, you can ask her yourself."
Chu Shen's face was bitter, "It's not easy to ask."
Lu Ye did not know what he was worried about. He asked again, "Where is Pu Ke?"
He did not sense Pu Ke's aura. As for Ghost … she was sent to the Mermaid Territory by him. Without him, she would not be able to come back. As for Pu Ke, Lu Ye did not see him. He did not know what this guy was doing.
Chu Shen's expression was a little strange, "Senior Brother Pu seems to be hiding!"
"Hiding from what?" Lu Ye did not understand.
Chu Shen said, "Senior Brother Pu has an arranged marriage. Not long ago, the other party came to look for him, and then Senior Brother Pu ran away!"
Lu Ye was stunned. He thought that Pu Ke's arranged marriage was probably very ugly. Otherwise, why would he run away?
