"Can I have one?" Yan Miao asked.
"Of course!" Lu Ye nodded. Although a top-grade Soul-refining Pill was expensive, if they wanted to reach a long-term deal with the Mermaid Clan, they naturally had to let the other party clearly understand the magical effects of this pill.
The best way to do this was to directly take one.
Yan Miao stuffed a Soul-refining Pill into her mouth.
Although she had vaguely sensed that this pill would be of great use to her when she smelled its fragrance, Yan Miao was still greatly shocked as she slowly refined the pill. This was because she could clearly feel that as the pill took effect, her Soul was nourished by a gentle force.
For a moment, her eyes turned red.
Lu Ye was stunned. Why did she almost cry after eating a Soul-refining Pill? Even if the effects of a top-grade Soul-refining Pill were outstanding, it shouldn't cause such a big reaction.
"I've made a fool of myself in front of little friend." After a long while, Yan Miao finally calmed down. The Soul-refining Pill's effects were still slowly taking effect in her body. Looking at the situation, it probably wouldn't be a problem to maintain it for a few days. During these few days, her Soul would be able to thrive under the miraculous nourishment. Because of her slight loss of self-control, her expression was a little embarrassed. She couldn't help but want to explain, so she asked, "Little friend, do you know why only the Queen's bloodline in our clan can be promoted to Sunshine?"
Lu Ye casually asked, "Is it because of the curse?" It wasn't that he knew beforehand, but this was the only possibility.
Yan Miao nodded, "It is indeed because of the curse. That strange curse not only forced us to live in the cold and dark Ten Thousand Elephant Sea, but also limited the growth of most of our clansmen, making it impossible for our clansmen to ever see the door to Sunshine. Only the Queen's bloodline is relatively strong, so the restrictions are better than the ordinary clansmen. But even so, the Queen's bloodline only has hope of being promoted to Sunshine. Not every generation of Queen is Sunshine!"
In other words, Bai Shuang may be promoted to Sunshine in the future, but she may only be Yue Yao.
"A few days ago, little friend, you helped me to dissolve the power of the curse. At that time, I felt that something had changed. I thought that maybe I could try to pry into the mystery of Sunshine, but because this kind of thing has never happened before in my clan, I can't be sure."
Lu Yeyin was enlightened. "So that's why the Great Elder insisted on going out to sea personally to verify whether the power of the curse has disappeared, and at the same time, to verify the matter of the promotion of Sunshine?"
Miao Yan nodded and looked at Lu Ye cheerfully. "There's no need to test it now. I'm sure that I can pry into the secrets of sunshine! Because after swallowing the Spirit Refining Pill, I clearly have some feelings that I have never had before! "
In terms of accumulation, Yan Miao had long since reached Yue Yao's peak. Unfortunately, she had been restricted by the power of the curse in the past, so she hadn't been able to feel Yue Yao's sunlight at all.
But as she consumed the Spirit Refining Pill, she had a strange feeling.
In the past, it was as if she was locked in a sealed house. This house had a secret door. As long as she opened the secret door, she would be able to see through the secret of the sunshine.
However, even though she knew that there was a secret door in the house, she still did not know where it was …
But now, it was different. When the power of the curse was resolved, she vaguely sensed the location of the secret door, and with the consumption of a top-grade Soul-refining Pill, the secret door even opened a small crack, and a faint bright light shone in from the crack of the door, allowing her to see the hope of going one step further.
Otherwise, how could a late-stage Yue Yao like her be so emotional after swallowing a Spirit Refining Pill?
The Spirit Refining Pill was only the catalyst. The result was the real reason why she could not control herself.
If this was the case, then the power of the curse in Yan Miao's body had indeed been completely dispelled. Otherwise, she would not have such a feeling.
"Little friend, this Spirit Refining Pill is very useful to me! I want to buy some! "Yan Miao said seriously. She had a feeling that with the help of this pill, she would be able to advance to Sunshine even faster.
Lu Ye had long known that the Spirit Refining Pill was very attractive to Yue Yao like Yan Miao. After all, at this realm, if one wanted to advance to Sunshine, they would have to work hard on their essence, energy, and spirit. The Spirit Refining Pill was undoubtedly a very suitable Spirit Refining Pill.
Since Yan Miao had such a request, Lu Ye naturally would not refuse. However, since they were doing business, there were some things that needed to be said first. Even blood-related brothers had to settle accounts clearly, let alone two different races.
Even if Lu Ye had already decided that the Merpeople Clan would be Three World Island's future allies, he could not be careless about this matter. In fact, he had to be more explicit about it.
"No problem, but the price of this pill is a little high."
Yan Miao smiled. "It doesn't matter if it's expensive. Our Merpeople Clan does not have many things, but we do have a lot of Spirit Jades!"
These words … were very capricious! However, she did have the capital to be capricious.
Lu Ye immediately informed her of the price of the Body Refining Pill and Spirit Refining Pill. He did not ask for too much, just the price that Cao Xiang of the Myriad Elephant Chamber of Commerce had previously quoted. This price was undoubtedly very fair. More importantly, even if one took out the same amount of Spirit Jades on the Myriad Elephant Sea, they might not necessarily be able to buy these top-grade Spirit Pills.
Thus, Lu Ye did not ask for too much, but in reality, the Merpeople Clan had gained a bargain.
This way, the top-grade Spirit Pills refined by Shui Yuan and Hua Ci would not have to worry about a lack of demand. Lu Ye could not sell these top-grade Spirit Pills to outsiders, but selling them to the Merpeople Clan would not be a problem.
The cooperation between the two sides could be considered a win-win situation.
Furthermore, Shui Yuan and Hua Ci would not have to waste their time refining top-grade Spirit Pills in the future. They would refine top-grade Spirit Pills to avoid wasting materials. The Merpeople Clan would be able to supply as many as they wanted.
In the short term, the cultivators of the Three World Island would not have to worry about the demand for Spirit Jades.
After handing over all the Spirit Pills he had brought to Yan Miao, the two of them continued on their journey.
The Myriad Elephant Sea was not peaceful. Occasionally, there would be terrifying Spirit Beasts roaming about. Even though Yan Miao's cultivation was extraordinary, she was unwilling to fight enemies in such an environment. Thus, when they occasionally encountered Spirit Fish Star Beasts that harbored ill intentions, Yan Miao would blow a conch shell to scare them away.
A long time ago, Lu Ye had witnessed the power of this conch shell in Yan Miao's hands. Its function should be the complete opposite of his bone xun.
The bone xun could attract nearby Star Beasts, but the conch shell could drive them away. It was very mysterious.
According to Yan Miao, the power of her conch shell could even drive away ordinary Sunlight Star Beasts. In the past, when a Sunlight Star Beast invaded the Merpeople Clan's territory, she had used this conch to drive it away.
Moreover, there were not many Sunlight Star Beasts in the Myriad Elephant Sea. In addition, the Myriad Elephant Sea was unparalleled. As long as one's luck was not too bad, they would not encounter them.
However, sometimes, what one feared would come true.
Half a month after setting off from the Merpeople Clan's territory, Lu Ye and Yan Miao were riding on their seahorses. Suddenly, a brilliant aura swept toward them from not far away.
Yan Miao and Lu Ye were shocked. They did not need to investigate to know that it was a Sunlight Star Beast.
They looked at each other and restrained their auras.
Even though they had the conch shell, they still had to conceal their auras.
However, what made them depressed was that the Sunlight Star Beast did not change its direction even though they had restrained their auras.
Yan Miao hurriedly gestured to Lu Ye. At the same time, she patted the seahorse beneath her. The two seahorses immediately carried the two of them to the side.
The two of them had restrained their auras, but the same could not be said for the two seahorse mounts.
However, under normal circumstances, a Sunlight Star Beast would not be interested in a Nebula-Class seahorse. It was just like how Lu Ye was not interested in a Deity Ocean Beast. The difference in strength between them was too great.
However, Yan Miao's heart sank. When the two seahorses changed direction, the Sunlight Star Beast did the same.
Yan Miao immediately realized that things were not looking good. This was probably a Sunlight Star Beast looking for food. Otherwise, it would not have gone after the two Constellation Seahorses.
At this point, even if she abandoned the seahorses, it would be useless. The moment she revealed Yue Yao's aura, the Sunlight Star Beast would definitely target her.
Yan Miao's figure flashed as she mounted her seahorse and blocked Lu Ye's path. She took out her conch shell, stared ahead, and blew into it.
She was very confident in her conch shell's power. After all, she had used it to chase away a Sunlight Star Beast before.
The low sound of her conch shell rang out. As expected, the Sunlight Star Beast was affected. It suddenly stopped in front of them, hesitating to move forward.
Yan Miao continued blowing into her conch shell, her gaze fixed in that direction.
"Roar!" An angry roar came from the other side. It was full of irritation. Along with the roar came Rizhao's terrifying aura. It almost condensed into a solid form, causing the seawater to churn. Even though the two seahorses desperately tried to stabilize their bodies, they were still swept away.
Yan Miao's expression changed slightly. She realized that this Sunlight Star Beast was different from the one she had chased away before. Back then, the Sunlight Star Beast that had invaded the merfolk's territory immediately fled as soon as she blew her conch shell, as if it had encountered its natural enemy.
However, even though this Sunlight Star Beast's roar was violent, it did not retreat immediately. Instead, its aura became even more dangerous.
'My conch shell won't be useless against this Star Beast, right?' Yan Miao's heart began to beat faster.
There was nowhere to hide here. If the conch shell's might was useless, then she and Lu Ye would be in danger.
The low sound of the conch shell did not stop for even a moment. The Sunlight Star Beast's roar was also continuous. It seemed to have sensed the danger ahead and hesitated to move forward. For a moment, the situation was in a deadlock!
Lu Ye rode his seahorse and hid behind Smoky Miao. He tried his best to see what was going on, but the water was blocking his view. He couldn't see what the Solar Star Beast looked like, even though it wasn't that far away. But judging from the current situation and Smoky Miao's expression, things didn't look good.
Sure enough, the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea was full of dangers. It was not a place where one could wander freely.
The first time he came here, he had thought of swimming out of the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea. However, he encountered a Sunlight Star Beast halfway and was forced to return to the Constellation Hall. This time, he encountered it again.
Wasn't there supposed to be a lot of Sunlight Star Beasts in the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea? Why was he always encountering them?
In fact, there were not many Sunlight Star Beasts in the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea. However, he and Yan Miao had been swimming here for half a month. If they walked at night too often, they would eventually encounter ghosts.
