The time it took for a stick of incense to burn was very short. Regardless of whether the Yue Yao present were fully prepared or not, they still paid the price. Inside the hall, Luan Xiaoe's voice rang out again. More than ten cultivators from the Three Realms walked into the hall and took the jade slips from the Yue Yao's hands.
Luan Xiaoe was in charge of checking and calculating. Of course, she was just going through the motions.
A moment later, she raised her head and smiled. "Are the friends from Four Corner Island here?"
Zhou Chuang and Kang Cheng hurriedly stood up and acted as if they were unfamiliar with Luan Xiaoe. They cupped their fists and said, "Zhou Chuang of Four Corner Island greets Island Master Luan."
"Kang Cheng greets Island Master Luan."
Luan Xiaoe nodded. "Four Corner Island's offer is the most sincere. From today onwards, this island belongs to Four Corner Island."
As soon as she finished speaking, many Yue Yao in the hall revealed disappointed expressions. These people really wanted to take over Baiyue Island but missed the opportunity. There were also some who were calm. These people were probably just here to join in the fun.
Zhou Chuang and Kang Cheng looked delighted. They acted as if they had picked up a great bargain.
Luan Xiaoe spoke again. "My friends, the cultivators from the Three Realms will stay in Baiyue Island for ten days. During this time, we will do our best to help you construct the island's defenses. At the same time, please prepare the corresponding spiritual jades."
When Zhou Chuang heard this, he immediately said gratefully, "Thank you very much, Island Master Luan."
Previously, he was still a little worried. If the cultivators from Three World Island left immediately, the defenses would not be complete. If someone attacked, Four Corner Island might not be able to defend itself.
However, if the cultivators from Three World Island stayed for ten days, the situation would be different. When the defenses here were complete and their defenses were greatly strengthened, unless the enemy's strength far surpassed that of Four Corner Island, they would not be able to take it down.
As for the future, Four Corner Island would have to slowly manage it. The longer the island's protective formation was in operation, the more stable it would be. Hence, as long as Four Corner Island could establish a firm foothold in the early stages, there would not be much of a problem.
'The cultivators from Three World Island are very thoughtful.' Zhou Chuang sighed.
The auction of a high-grade spiritual island began without any intense bidding. It started without any warning and ended quietly. It only took a little more than two hours.
There were many things waiting to be done on Baiyue Island. Furthermore, it had already fallen into the hands of Four Corner Island, so it was naturally inconvenient for Yue Yao to stay any longer. Thus, everyone bid farewell and left.
After that, the cultivators of the four star systems began to migrate. After receiving Zhou Chuang and Kang Cheng's message, Zhang Tingyi and Gao Zhan led a group of constellations and rushed over.
Zhang Tingyi was a Yue Yao from the Grand Heavenly Realm, while Gao Zhan was from the Quiet Moon Realm. The two of them, along with Zhou Chuang and Kang Cheng, were the four late-stage Yue Yao overseers of the Myriad Phenomenon Sea.
The cultivators of the Three Realms were either recuperating or resting. Many of them were assisting the people from the Four Directions Star System in building the defenses of the spiritual islands. It was a bustling scene.
Lu Ye was also busy cracking the restriction lock on the storage ring.
In the battle on Baiyue Island, the Baiyue side had lost more than 1,000 Lunar Mansions. Even if each person only had two storage rings, that was still more than 2,000 storage rings.
Even though it was easy for Lu Ye to crack the restriction lock now, it would still take some time.
Fortunately, he was not the only one who was busy. He had two helpers. One of them was from the Green Dawn Dao World, and the other was from the Jade Conch Dao World. They had some attainments in the Dao of Spirit Tattoos. Their efficiency in cracking the restriction lock was not as high as Lu Ye's, but they could still be of some help.
Luan Xiaoe, Shui Yuan, Hua Ci, and Old Tang waited at the side. They took the storage rings that had been cracked, took out the items inside, and sorted them out.
Luan Xiaoe was the First Island Lord. She was in charge of the finances of the Three Realms Island. After the battle ended, Old Tang came to meet everyone.
There was a lot of hustle and bustle.
Lu Ye was slightly disappointed. This was because he did not find many resources that were suitable for him from the spoils of war.
His current desire for cultivation resources was limited to two aspects. One was fire-elemental treasures that could provide fuel for his Talent Tree. The other was items that could improve the quality of his Art Source.
He did find some fire-elemental treasures. There were not many of them, but it was better than nothing.
As for items that could improve the quality of his Art Source, there was not a single one!
Lu Ye was mentally prepared for this, as treasures that could raise the quality of one's source were often priceless, even in the Innumerable Phenomenon Ocean.
The Wanxiang Sea had a large number of constellations, and there were many Yue Yao as well. Almost every Yue Yao wished to improve the quality of their Art Source. Naturally, they had a great demand for such treasures.
Therefore, if a Yue Yao had such an item, they would use it as soon as possible. After all, the earlier they used it, the greater their benefits.
Ma Shangsi had obtained a White Moon Crystal because his Art Source had already reached its limit. Unless he advanced to the Sunshine Realm, which required faster cultivation efficiency, it would be a waste to improve the quality of his Art Source.
Normally, Yue Yao could only go to the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce to obtain such treasures.
Lu Ye had sent a message to the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce's manager, Cao Xiang, two months ago, asking him to keep an eye out for any Yue Yao. However, there had been no news from him until now. It was clear how rare such treasures were.
It wasn't that the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce hadn't found a single Yue Yao after such a long time. However, there were too many people who needed them. Lu Ye had asked Cao Xiang to keep an eye out for them. Who knew if there were more Yue Yao and asked the managers of other chambers of commerce to keep an eye out for them?
There were bound to be some. Perhaps the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce had obtained some Yue Yao treasures, but Lu Ye hadn't gotten his turn yet.
After busying himself for a few days, he finally managed to break the restrictions on those storage rings. He didn't need to worry about the rest. Luan Xiaoe and Tang Jun would handle it.
Ten days passed quickly.
Baiyue Island, which had been ravaged by the flames of war, had undergone a great change. It once again looked like a high-class Spirit Island. Most of the defenses were more or less complete. The Four Corners Star System would have to fill in some minor details themselves.
With Four Corners Island's current lineup of four late-stage Yue Yao and one thousand constellations, as well as the existing defenses, it would be impossible to take them down unless someone mobilized twice the strength of Four Corners Island.
According to the agreement, the cultivators of the Three Realms prepared to evacuate.
On the night before they left, Zhou Chuang and the other three Yue Yao hosted a banquet to express their sincere gratitude. Everyone from the Three Realms Island attended the banquet, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
Zhou Chuang went to find Lu Ye alone and asked for a branch from the Reincarnation Tree. Lu Ye didn't need to guess what it was for.
Baiyue Island's environment was much better than the Four Corners Island that the Four Corners Star System had previously occupied. Not to mention the difference in quality of the Spirit Island, just the size of the island itself was enough.
In the past, Four Corners Island could barely accommodate a thousand constellations. However, the current Baiyue Island could accommodate at least two thousand people, or even more.
The Four Corners Star System naturally wanted to dispatch more cultivators here. This way, not only would it increase the defenses of the Spirit Island, but it would also allow more cultivators from the Four Corners Star System to benefit from this place and grow faster!
Therefore, Zhou Chuang and the others decided to return to the Four Corners Star System as soon as possible. However, the journey was long, and it would take at least a year and a half for a round trip.
The next day, Zhou Chuang and the others personally sent the cultivators of the Three Realms off.
The battle of Baiyue Island shook the entire Wanxiang Sea. This battle had created a few miracles that had never been seen before.
First of all, the time it took for the battle to end. In the past, it was normal for battles to last for ten days to half a month. It was also normal for battles to last for three to five months. The longest battle for a high-class Spirit Island had even lasted for several years.
However, the battle of Baiyue Island had only taken a day from the start to the end!
In just one day, an old high-class Spirit Island that had been in operation for eight hundred years had completely changed owners. If not for the fact that many people had witnessed this scene with their own eyes, no one would have believed it when the news spread.
Baiyue Island was not considered a powerful force in the Wanxiang Sea, but it was definitely not weak either. No one knew why such a powerful force could not even withstand a single blow from the Three Realms Island.
If the time spent on this battle was shocking, then the losses on both sides were enough to be horrifying.
Several cultivators from Baiyue Island had died in the battle. It was a complete annihilation. Even Yu Huan, who had escaped in the end, was personally killed by Guardian Yuandu for breaking the rules.
There were more than a thousand casualties on the constellation island!
On the other hand, there was not a single casualty on the Three Realms Island!
This kind of loss ratio was simply unimaginable.
Many Yue Yao who had gone to watch the battle had reviewed the battle that day. Everyone believed that the most important reason why the Three Realms Island had such a glorious battle record was that they had used some unknown method to infiltrate Baiyue Island before the island's protective formation was broken. They had disrupted Baiyue Island's deployment.
Up until now, no one understood how the cultivators of the Three Realms Island had managed to do this. Many people searched for the surviving cultivators of Baiyue Island, hoping to get some useful information from them. However, they did not find anything because even the cultivators of Baiyue Island did not know what had happened.
They were all on the Spirit Island when the battle suddenly broke out.
The more they learned about this battle, the more they felt the terror of the Three Realms Island. On the surface, the five Yue Yao and a thousand constellations of the Three Realms Island appeared to be a standard arrangement. They were not weak, but they were not that strong either. However, all the cultivators who wanted to study this battle knew that what they saw was only the surface. There must be something hidden beneath the deep waters of the Three Realms Island. This was what the Three Realms Island relied on to defeat Baiyue Island in this battle.
The Three Realms Island's reputation spread far and wide!
This led to a phenomenon — such a huge high-class spiritual island, which should have been a treasure land that countless forces coveted and fought over, was left empty for more than ten days. Unexpectedly, no forces dared to enter it. This was the first time in the history of the vast Vientiane Sea that something like this had happened.
Needless to say, the top forces had their own high-class Spirit Islands. It was not good for them to occupy a second one.
Forces that were slightly weaker did not dare to do so because they were afraid of the strength of the Three Realms Island.
Everyone knew what happened to Baiyue Island. Just because the cultivators of Baiyue Island had secretly ambushed a Yue Yao of the Three Realms, the Three Realms Island had mobilized all their forces and destroyed their base. If anyone dared to occupy the Three Realms Island now, they would definitely fight to the death with the cultivators of the Three Realms.
No one was willing to repeat the mistakes of Baiyue Island.
