He would open the door to the Conch Palace on the Three World Island, then imprint the conch mark on the cold jade board and have someone bring it back to the Three World Island.
This way, the next time Lu Ye blew the conch, the door would open on the Three World Island.
This was a trick Lu Ye had thought of.
In fact, he could have done this the last time, but he hadn't thought about it. Fortunately, he hadn't lost anything. After swimming in the sea for a month, Lu Ye had cultivated for a month, so he hadn't wasted any time.
Moreover, he had discovered the correct way to use the treasure money and its huge potential!
Yan Miao had already informed the elders of the situation. The elders naturally wouldn't be stingy and open the door to the Conch Palace to this group of future allies.
They immediately began to make arrangements. A moment later, a hundred cultivators from the Three World Island rushed into the Conch Palace. As for how many of them would benefit, that would depend on their own luck.
After the cultivators of the Three World Island had made arrangements, only the mermaid elders and Lu Ye remained outside the palace.
Lu Ye could clearly feel several pairs of eyes staring at him, as if they were looking at a delicious cake, full of desire …
Plagued by the power of the curse, the Merpeople could only live in the depths of the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea since birth. If it had always been like this, it would have been fine. They could endure the darkness, but now, because of Lu Ye, they had hope of seeing the light.
This wasn't the most important thing. The most important thing was that after solving the curse, they could pursue a higher cultivation realm. Even if the chances weren't great, it was still a chance.
Since ancient times, only the queen's bloodline could reach the Sunshine realm in this branch of the mermaid race. It was all because of the curse.
The pursuit of a higher realm and greater strength could be said to be the innate instinct of every cultivator. Who could resist such a temptation?
"Elders, if you're ready, shall we begin?" Lu Ye asked.
The elders nodded their heads like chickens pecking at rice. "We're ready!"
If Lu Ye hadn't spoken, they wouldn't have been able to bring it up. Now that Lu Ye had taken the initiative, things were much easier.
"Young friend, this way please. A quiet room has been prepared." Yan Miao gestured with her hand.
A short while later, Lu Ye sat upright in a quiet room. In front of her was a woman whose beauty was no less than Yan Miao's. She was the Second Elder of this branch of the Mermaid Clan.
However, compared to the grand elder's dignified and graceful demeanor, the second elder's demeanor was even more delicate and charming. At this moment, her eyes were filled with anticipation as she stared at Lu Ye. Her beautiful eyes shone as she softly spoke, "Thank you for your hard work, little friend."
"Well said, please extend your hand, Second Elder!" Lu Ye extended his hand.
The Second Elder placed her small hand on Lu Ye's palm.
Lu Ye had the experience of helping Yan Miao deal with the curse power, so she was naturally familiar with this task. She immediately urged the power of the Talent Tree to slowly invade the Second Elder's body.
Outside the quiet room, the other elders and Bai Lu were waiting.
More than four hours later, the door to the quiet room opened. Everyone looked up and saw the Second Elder with a red face. He walked out while panting lightly. His eyes were rippling, but his face was full of excitement. He said softly, "Next!"
For a few months, the mermaids of the Jade Realm looked at her in confusion.
What did you do in there? There was clearly something wrong with the Second Elder's condition.
Yan Miao couldn't help but explain, "Although the power used to deal with the curse power is relatively gentle, it's still of the fire element. Thus, the process will cause some damage to the body. However, the damage isn't too great. You'll be able to recover after resting for a while."
Compared to dealing with the curse power, that little bit of damage was negligible.
"I'm going," said the Third Elder as she walked into the quiet room.
More than four hours later, the usually aloof Third Elder also walked out of the quiet room like the Second Elder.
Next came the Fourth Elder, then the Fifth Elder ….
In just one day, Lu Ye burned away the curse power in the bodies of the Mermaid Clan's Elders as well as Bai Lu.
However, the mermaids of the Jade Realm weren't limited to just the few of them. There were more than thirty mermaids of the Jade Realm.
To Lu Ye, this wasn't too troublesome. All she needed was some time and fuel from the Talent Tree.
In any case, she couldn't use the conch right now, so she couldn't return to the Three World Island. Lu Ye decided to work harder in the next few days and deal with all the mermaids who needed to deal with the curse power.
Within the Heavenly Conch Hall, the hundred cultivators of the Three World Island walked out one after another. Some of them obtained conches, while others didn't. Comparatively speaking, only a small portion of them obtained conches.
Among the hundred people, less than ten obtained conches of varying quality.
Since the door couldn't be opened, they couldn't return. Naturally, they were warmly welcomed by the mermaids and stayed for the time being. For the time being, they were able to experience the scenery under the sea.
Seven days later, the cultivators of the Three World Island gathered again. Lu Ye directly opened the door in front of the Heavenly Conch Hall. The cultivators of the Three World Island filed in and returned to the Three World Island.
Before leaving, Lu Ye gave Hua Ci a storage ring filled with spirit jades. There were no less than twenty million spirit jades in total.
These spirit jades were all extracted by the mermaids during this period of time. Yan Miao had paid for the elixirs she had bought from Lu Ye. However, most of the spirit jades were more than what Yan Miao had bought from Lu Ye. For the time being, it was a gift to thank Lu Ye for helping them burn the power of the curse power.
This was a great help to Lu Ye. The burning power of the curse power consumed a lot of the fuel of the Talent Tree. He still needed to cultivate in the future and urgently needed to replenish the fuel of the Talent Tree.
After Hua Ci walked out of the door, she immediately went to find Luan Xiaoe and asked her to take her to Tianyan Island.
It didn't take her much effort to find An Zhe's store.
Of the two people that Lu Ye had brought with him, Hua Qianying was forced to leave Tianyan Island. However, An Zhe didn't leave because he had an entire realm behind him. Although he had to pay more rent, he could still make a lot of money by opening a store on Tianyan Island.
Hua Ci used twenty million spirit jades to buy Dragon Breath Crystals. She planned to send them to Lu Ye the next time he opened the door.
In the mermaids' territory, the hundred cultivators of the Three World Island left. Another hundred people came and entered the Heavenly Conch Hall under the arrangement of the mermaids.
Lu Ye continued to help the mermaids extinguish the power of the curse power.
Yan Miao took some time to discuss this with him. Although there were many mermaids, not all of them needed to be cured of the curse power. For example, the mermaids with low cultivation levels didn't need to be cured. Even if they did, it wouldn't be very meaningful.
Apart from all the Yue Yao, the rest of the mermaids were carefully selected by the elders. Therefore, there weren't many of them.
After nearly half a month, a mermaid walked out of the quiet room with gratitude. Yan Miao walked in leisurely.
Lu Ye glanced at her and asked curiously, "Is that all?"
He calculated. He helped about five mermaids extinguish the curse power of the curse power every day. In the past half a month, about seventy or eighty mermaids had come to this quiet room.
However, these seventy or eighty mermaids could be considered the most elite force of the mermaids. They were either Yue Yao or late-stage Constellation Masters with hopes of becoming Yue Yao.
"Young friend, you've been busy for half a month. Take a rest first. There's plenty of time in the future. There's no rush," Yan Miao said.
Lu Ye said, "Actually, I'll be leaving the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea soon. I haven't set a date for my return. Moreover, this matter won't take much effort. If your clan has any other candidates, feel free to send them over. I'll take care of them all at once."
As for the fuel for the Talent Tree, Hua Ci had already sent over twenty million Dragon Breath Crystals when they opened the door for the second time.
At the same time, Lu Ye gave her a lot of Spirit Jades and told her to continue buying Dragon Breath Crystals. These Spirit Jades were naturally the first to be mined by the mermaids.
In the past, although the mermaids owned a Spirit Jade mine, they didn't need much. Thus, they didn't mine too much. Apart from mining a portion for future use, they didn't mine too much.
However, things were different now. The mermaids needed to spend a lot of Spirit Jades. Naturally, they had to mine more of them.
Upon hearing Lu Ye's words, Yan Miao said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, young friend."
Originally, the mermaids weren't prepared to let Lu Ye solve the problem for so many of their people. However, they realized something.
After the power of the curse disappeared from their bodies, not only did the elders with the deepest cultivation bases see the hope of advancing to the Sunshine level, even the other members of the mermaids found it easier to cultivate.
In the past few days, there were even two late-stage Lunar Constellation members who had advanced to the Lunar Jade level, adding another two Lunar Jade level combatants to the clan!
This made them realize that not only did the power of the curse restrict the mermaids' freedom, it also restricted their potential!
Now that Lu Ye insisted and the mermaids had a need, the two sides naturally hit it off.
In the next month, Lu Ye stayed in the quiet room and didn't leave. The number of mermaids who had their problems solved by him had already exceeded two hundred!
For this group of mermaids, two hundred people was already quite a lot. After all, their entire group only had two thousand people at most.
Ten percent of them were at the Lunar Constellation level or above.
The rest were basically mermaids who hadn't reached the Lunar Constellation realm. Lu Ye didn't need to worry about them. Because their cultivation bases were too low, they couldn't recover well from the injuries caused by the curse. Unlike those at the Lunar Constellation realm, their bodies were tempered and their wounds healed very quickly.
Including the previous half a month, the five hundred cultivators of the Three World Island came to the mermaids' territory five times in a month and a half. Everyone entered the Heavenly Spiral Palace once, but only a few were able to gain anything.
The problem of the mermaids could be considered solved for now. Even if they still had other needs, that would be a matter for the future. Lu Ye heaved a sigh of relief.
The reason why he spared no effort in helping the mermaids solve the problem of the curse and didn't even mention to Yan Miao and the others about the fuel consumption of the Talent Tree was that he hoped that one day, if the Three World Island really encountered any trouble, the mermaids would have enough manpower to go and help!
Helping the mermaids was equivalent to helping the Three World Island.
Of course, the rewards were not small either.
During this time, all the spiritual jades that the mermaids had mined were all given to Lu Ye. After splitting them up a few times, Lu Ye received about seventy to eighty million spiritual jades from Yan Miao. Apart from leaving a portion as backup for the Three World Island, he had Hua Ci buy the rest for him into Dragon Breath Crystals.
