Lu Ye planned to go on a long journey. First, he had to send Li Shang back to the Soul Tribe's ancestral land. This was something he had discussed long ago. Second, the Reincarnation Tree had instructed him to go to the Yin Yang Great Millstone before advancing to Yue Yao. Although Lu Ye did not know the deeper meaning behind it, since it was Old Tree's instruction, it would not harm him.
The Reincarnation Tree had existed for too long. It obviously knew some secrets that ordinary cultivators did not know. The Yin Yang Great Millstone would most likely be beneficial to Lu Ye's advancement.
However, this was all based on the temporary stability of the Three World Island. It would be irresponsible of him to leave now. Therefore, Lu Ye could not leave now. At least, he had to wait for a while.
However, the Minor Constellation Palace had already been installed under the Three World Island. It would definitely be revived. Once it became a mid-level Spiritual Island, it would definitely be targeted. When that time came, they might not be able to defend themselves.
Unfortunately, he could not count on the Mermaid Clan. Otherwise, they would be the best ally.
Lu Ye could not help but feel regretful. How good would it be if the Mermaid Clan under the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea did not have that curse? However, if they did not have that curse, the Mermaid Clan would not have lived under the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea for eternity. Lu Ye would not have had the chance to meet them.
Wait …
A thought suddenly flashed through Lu Ye's mind. He thought about it carefully. The Mermaid Clan could not leave the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea because of the curse passed down through generations. That curse was an inheritance of their bloodline.
If that was the case … would the Talent Tree work?
Lu Ye had never thought about this before. Moreover, when he met the Mermaid Clan, the Talent Tree had only undergone two transformations. It could not be used on others.
But now, the Talent Tree had already changed three times. He could even help resolve the power of Dancer that invaded other people's bodies. That so-called curse was nothing more than a kind of external corrosive power, so the Talent Tree might be able to burn it down.
If that was the case, then he could definitely help the Mermaid Clan neutralize the power of the curse. Then, they would be able to leave the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea and live!
If the Mermaid Clan could leave the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea, then when the Three World Island was attacked, they could come and help. Wouldn't that be impregnable?
The more Lu Ye thought about it, the more he felt that it was a good idea. Unfortunately, he hadn't thought of it before. If he had, he could have given it a try.
Anyway, there wasn't much loss in trying. If it worked, then the problem that troubled him would be solved. Even if it didn't work, there wasn't much loss. It was just that the merpeople who acted as the test subject would most likely suffer some damage.
Previously, he and Miao Yan had agreed to go to the Constellation Hall half a month later to bring Bai Lu and the others out. Therefore, he could only try again half a month later.
Lu Ye recalled some of the things that Bai Lu had said when he chatted with her. She said that the reason why the Merpeople were so friendly to him, that they would grant almost all of his requests, was entirely because of an ancestral teaching. One of their ancestral teachings was that those who could gain the favor of the temple would be the future of this branch of the Merpeople, and could help them solve the problem of the curse.
At that time, Lu Ye was a little disdainful because he didn't know how to deal with the so-called curse. Who would have thought that at this time, he would have a clue.
From the looks of it, the merfolk ancestors who passed down the ancestral teachings seemed to have something up their sleeves.
As for whether it would work or not, he could only try it himself the next time he went there.
Lu Ye secretly made up his mind.
However, what he needed to do now was to quickly improve his own foundation.
Although it had been a few years since he advanced to the late-stage of the Constellation Hall, and the efficiency of his intermittent cultivation was not bad, it was still not as good as cultivating in the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea. He had to improve his foundation to the peak of the Constellation Hall before he set off for the Yin Yang Great Millstone.
There was not much time left, so Lu Ye did not dare to delay.
Leaving his clone to take care of this place, his main body quietly left the Three World Island, found a secluded place, and plunged into the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea.
Cultivate, cultivate!
Entering the sea, as usual, there was no need to guide and refine it at all. The enormous energy in the sea frantically corroded his body. Lu Ye did not need to do too much. He had the Talent Tree to burn the impurities that invaded his body. For a moment, the Talent Tree lit up brightly, and a gray mist rose.
This kind of cultivation method was more suitable for him. The only drawback was that it consumed too much energy. Fortunately, he still had some fuel left from the Talent Tree he had stored in the past. It would not be a problem for him to advance to the peak of the Constellation Hall.
However, even if it was not enough, he still had two million spirit jades on hand. He could buy some when the time came.
He still had to think of a way to earn money. In the future, he would need to use the Talent Tree. Without spirit jades, where would he go to buy fire-type treasures?
Speaking of treasures, Lu Ye's heart stirred. He suddenly thought of a treasure.
Back then, on the way back to the Nine Provinces with Li Shang, he used the bone xun to lure a group of Armored Armadillo Beasts. After killing them, he obtained a treasure coin from one of the Armored Armadillo Beasts.
After a few tests, he verified the treasure coin's miraculous power. It could absorb the energy of the stars and store it inside. Then, when needed, it could be transformed into a mystic ray and shot out.
Back then, the Armored Armadillo Beast had spat out a ray of copper light, which had almost killed Lu Ye. Later, Lu Ye had placed it in his storage ring. In the end, he had lost several million spirit jades, and the treasure coin had turned silver. On the Heavenly Dog Planet, he had used this treasure coin to kill a Moon Jade Star Beast in one fell swoop.
Killing a Moon Jade at the cost of several million spirit jades was undoubtedly a great loss. So, after that, Lu Ye had placed the treasure coin in a storage ring that did not have any spirit jades. He did not want it to cause him any losses for no reason.
Lu Ye had once wondered, if this thing could absorb enough spirit jades, would it pose a threat to the masters of the Sunshine Realm?
However, he had not dared to try it, mainly because he did not have the capital to do so.
But now … looking at his surroundings, he was surrounded by seawater formed from the energy of the stars. Strictly speaking, the seawater of the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea was no different from spirit jades. It was just that it was too corrosive and had too many impurities, so no one dared to go deep into it to absorb and refine it.
But the treasure coin did not care about impurities. Perhaps it could absorb seawater?
Thinking of this, Lu Ye could not help but take out the treasure coin. The moment the treasure coin appeared, Lu Ye's expression changed. Just as he had guessed, the treasure coin was madly absorbing the seawater around it. It was like a ferocious beast that had been starved for countless years. Its entire body had turned into a bottomless pit, and its speed of absorption was beyond imagination. Where the treasure coin was, there were obvious signs of the seawater rapidly flowing.
After the treasure coin had shot out that ray of silver light, it had become dim, but now, it had quickly turned into a copper color. As the seawater continued to absorb the treasure coin, the copper color became brighter and brighter. After a while, it suddenly turned silver!
Lu Ye could not help but smile with exultation. Last time, when the treasure coin turned silver, he had lost a few million spirit jades.
Now, after absorbing the seawater of the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea, it had reached the same level. This made Lu Ye feel as if he had picked up a few million spirit jades for free.
He had profited greatly!
Moreover, this was not the end of it. The silver color quickly surpassed the level of the treasure coin. After a while, Lu Ye actually noticed traces of gold at the edge of the treasure coin. It was as if the entire treasure coin was inlaid with gold.
His heart was beating rapidly. It seemed that it was just as he had guessed. This treasure coin turning silver was not the end, and it had even greater potential!
The gold edge rapidly spread towards the center. In just a short period of a dozen breaths, a dazzling gold treasure coin was imprinted in Lu Ye's eyes. At first glance, this treasure coin was bright orange as if it was made of the purest gold. If one did not see it with one's own eyes, it would be very difficult to believe that its true appearance was dim and lusterless.
The signs of the seawater's absorption had stopped. Lu Ye held the golden treasure coin with a solemn expression.
This was because he sensed a terrifying power hidden within the coin. It was many times stronger than what Lu Ye had sensed when the coin had turned silver all those years ago!
This thing … Could it be a threat to Rizhao?
Lu Ye was not sure, but there was a high probability that it could.
This kind of thing could only be known after trying once, but there was no way to test it. He could not ask Rizhao to come here. Rizhao, who was stationed on the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea, was from this galaxy. If he really invited them here, he might not be able to keep this treasure coin.
Now, it seemed that this treasure turning gold was the limit because Lu Ye did not feel any signs of the treasure coin devouring seawater anymore.
Even so, this was still inconceivable.
This thing should be considered a rare treasure! As for its grade … Lu Ye felt that ordinary grades could not determine this treasure's grade. It was very likely to be related to something at the level of a Starry Sky Treasure.
In other words, it was either a Starry Sky Treasure or a Starry Sky Treasure, similar to the Sword Gourd.
With such a precious treasure in hand, Lu Ye wanted to find a suitable target to test its power. Unfortunately, there was no chance, so he could only restrain himself.
When he left the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea, he could give this treasure to Hua Ci and use it as a trump card for the Three World Island!
As for himself, he still had the Red Talisman given to him by Su Yuqing, so it was not a big problem.
After so many years of nourishment, his strength had increased by quite a bit. The power that the Red Talisman could unleash was not something that Yue Yao could withstand.
When he advanced to Yue Yao, he could use the Red Talisman to threaten Rizhao.
He reluctantly put away the treasure coin and continued cultivating.
However, cultivating like this was a bit boring. Lu Ye thought for a moment, then took out the Pan Shan Saber.
When he cultivated here before, he never dared to take out the Pan Shan Saber because ordinary spirit treasures could not withstand the seawater's corrosion. However, the Pan Shan Saber was transformed from Pyrolyte, so it could probably withstand the seawater's corrosive power.
Even so, Lu Ye paid close attention to the Pan Shan Saber's changes. If he felt anything wrong, he would immediately put it away.
Fortunately, he was right. Pyrolyte was an ancient soldier, after all. The Pan Shan Saber that it had transformed into was not an ordinary treasure. The powerful corrosion of the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea's water had no effect on it.
This was good. Lu Ye did not need to worry about his cultivation. The Talent Tree would burn away the impurities that had invaded his body, and his foundation would rapidly strengthen. He could take advantage of this opportunity to continue tempering himself in the green hall. With this two-pronged approach, how efficient would his cultivation be?
