In the next few days, Xuan Jianxin and Nangong Aotian came here once each. Both of them came in cheerfully and left happily. Xuan Jianxin had a sword and saber manual in his hand, while Nangong Aotian had a Profound Sun Fruit in his storage ring.
However, Yi Tian was sure that these things would be pocketed by these two in the end. Fortunately, the two were extremely benevolent. Xuan Jianxin gave Yi Tian a sword talisman, saying that it could be used in times of crisis and had amazing power. Nangong Aotian gave Yi Tian an escape talisman and told him that it could only be used three times. The distance was 100 li, but the exact location could not be determined. He hoped that Yi Tian would use it carefully.
Ignoring the two of them, Yi Tian read the mission jade strip a few times. The things recorded on it were very simple. A hundred years ago, the three sects had sent a spy to the Blue Scaled Water Tribe. This time, Yi Tian's main purpose was to meet him. He brought Yang Yan Zi's ten Scarlet Yang Profound Bombs and handed half of them to the other party. With the help of the other party, he would also take away the Blue Scaled Aquatic Tribe's Dinghai Pearl on an island. This way, even if the Blue Scaled Aquatic Tribe used the tidal formation again, they would not be able to attack East Sea City.
For this meeting, Xuan Ling Sect specially gave Yi Tian an illusion god pearl. As long as he wore this pearl, Yi Tian would be able to disguise himself as a level 4 aquatic creature and sneak into the enemy's territory. As long as he did not use magic, no one would be able to see through him.
Seeing how confident the three Sect Leaders were, Yi Tian cursed the three of them several times in his heart. He thought to himself, "They really think too highly of themselves to assign such a dangerous mission."
In any case, the arrow was already nocked on the bowstring and had to be released. Yi Tian was also being forced to do something beyond his ability. He might as well make up his mind and obediently meditate in the City Guard Mansion. He was only waiting for the right time to set off.
Half a month later, Yang Yanzi walked into the side hall and ordered to get ready to set out. Yi Tian stood up and checked the things in his storage bracelet. Sword talisman, thunder fire drill, escape talisman, illusion god pearl, 10 Thousand Nail Ruler talismans, flame emblem shield. These were all level 5 equipment and some of his personal belongings. After confirming the equipment, Yang Yanzi said, "It's done."
The two took advantage of the night and walked through the secret passage under East Sea City's city lord mansion. After walking for about an hour, Yi Tian saw a light in front. After exiting the passage, he found himself on a deserted island 30 li south of East Sea City. The entire island was covered by a white mist. Yang Yanzi explained that the entrance of the secret passage had a one-way defensive formation. People could only come out from the inside. If anyone wanted to come in from the outside without a formation plate, they would trigger the island's defensive formation.
After a series of instructions, Yi Tian took out the Illusion God Pearl in his hand and activated it. A blue light covered his entire body and changed his appearance into that of a class 4 sea beast. Yi Tian stretched out his hand and looked at his arm. A layer of blue fish scales had appeared on his arm, and his entire arm had become thicker. Taking out Zou Dong's trident magic weapon from his storage bag, Yi Tian instantly transformed into a Naga Guard of the Blue Scaled Naga Clan.
Yang Yanzi looked at Yi Tian's appearance and said with satisfaction, "Remember the time and place. This illusion god pearl has the effect of green water, but you can't stay in the water for more than an hour. Otherwise, the effect of the illusion god pearl will start to disappear."
After Yang Yanzi left, Yi Tian took out the mission jade slip and read it carefully. He found a lot of loopholes. One of the key points was that the person they were going to meet was a level four sea beast called Blue Shark. Yi Tian couldn't understand why the three Sect Heads would make such a decision.
The jade slip also explained that this sea beast called Blue Shark was a spirit beast of the Blue Scaled Race that was subdued by Iron Sword Gate's Iron Sword Elder. At that time, it was only level 2. When it reached level 4, Iron Sword Elder used a secret method to awaken its intelligence, allowing it to speak after reaching level 4. Only then did he send it back to the Sea Race as a spy.
This time, the Blue Scaled Race attacked Eastsea City. The tug-of-war between the two races lasted for ten years. Iron Sword Elder thought for a long time before agreeing to use the spy he had set up a hundred years ago.
The three sect masters completely believed in Iron Sword Elder's spirit beast blood contract, so they did everything they could to make this happen. However, when it came to Yi Tian, they had to be careful. After all, a hundred years wasn't a long time for spirit beasts. It was hard to say if something unexpected would happen. Yi Tian was the one doing this. If anything went wrong, Yi Tian didn't want to lose his life.
For this reason, Yi Tian put away the jade slip and took out three copper coins to perform a divination for himself. Last time, he had a good chat with Xiao Linhang of the Heavenly Fortune Sect, so Yi Tian also learned a little about divination. Although he only knew a little about it, it was not a problem for him to predict his own good or bad luck.
After sitting down, he clasped his hands together and held the copper coins in his palms. Using his spirit power as a medium, he shook the coins six times and obtained the divination of 'Swamp Water Trap'. After looking at it, Yi Tian's face turned ashen. It seemed that this mission was going to be very dangerous. If he was trapped in the Sea Race for too long, he would be exposed.
There was no point in thinking too much. Since it was his turn, he couldn't shrink back. Yi Tian believed that if he turned back now, the three sect masters would immediately skin him alive.
After using the Illusion God Pearl to change his appearance, Yi Tian flew close to the surface of the sea. Although he didn't travel through the water, as long as one didn't look closely, it would be very difficult to distinguish him.
After looking at the sea map, Yi Tian found that he was still five hundred nautical miles away from the rendezvous point. As long as he kept flying at this speed, he would arrive in less than eight hours.
Along the way, he encountered a few rank three sea beasts, but Yi Tian only needed to release a bit of his spirit pressure, and those sea beasts would stay far away.
He had read the spirit beast charts before. The classification of sea beasts was very strict. Unless they had a special identity, generally speaking, low level sea beasts would stay far away from high level sea beasts.
When he arrived at the rendezvous point, Yi Tian saw a rank four sea beast with the head of a shark waiting there. He used his divine sense to scan the jade slip in his hand. After comparing the two, Yi Tian was sure that it was the sea beast from the rendezvous point, the 'Blue Shark'.
Seeing that there was no one around, Yi Tian quickly flew over at a low altitude. When Blue Shark heard the commotion, his face was filled with excitement. He turned around and called out in a muffled voice from the submerged reef, "Over here."
A moment later, they landed. Yi Tian first took out half of the jade talisman, and the 'Blue Shark' took out the other half. The two worked together seamlessly, and the Iron Sword Elder's figure appeared. He opened his mouth and ordered the 'Blue Shark', "This time, you have to cooperate fully. You must take the Dinghai away. After this matter is done, I will return your freedom."
The 'Blue Shark' actually knelt down and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Ancestor. This Blue Shark will definitely do its best to complete this matter."
Yi Tian handed over the five Crimson Sun Profound Bombs he had on him and said, "Everything is here. When do we make our move?"
Looking at the five pomegranate-sized spirit artifacts, the 'Blue Shark' also became excited. Its hand flashed as it put the things into a leather pouch.
After putting away the things, the 'Blue Shark' turned to Yi Tian and said, "The Blue Scaled Race's Saintess is guarding the Dinghai Pearl. She's on a small island twenty-five kilometers away. Four hours later, when the sun rises in the east and the Sea Race's guards are tired, I will secretly sneak over and kidnap the Saintess. "
Hearing this, Yi Tian frowned. This was very different from his plan, but now that he had left the 'Blue Shark', he was in the dark. He could only let it be for now and wait until the time came.
He turned around and asked, "What's the Saintess' cultivation level? How can we kidnap her?"
The 'Blue Shark' took out a coral dart from the leather pouch and said to Yi Tian with a lisp, "There are two Saintesses. They are both rank 4 spirit beasts. We only need to catch one. This is a poisonous dart with a jellyfish pouch. As long as it cuts the Saintess' skin, she will faint after three breaths. Then, it will be easy for us to kidnap her. Unfortunately, it can only be used three times. "
Looking at the poisonous blade on the coral dart, Yi Tian felt that it wasn't easy to deal with it. If he was hit by it, he wouldn't be able to last more than ten breaths.
This time, Yi Tian's heart was filled with questions. This Blue Shark looked dull, but its intelligence was definitely not proportional to its appearance. The intelligence of the Class 5 Demonic Beasts that Yi Tian had seen before was not comparable to this Blue Shark.
The two rested for a while until a red light appeared in the east. The 'Blue Shark' stood up and said, "It's about time. Let's go." Yi Tian nodded, and the man and beast quickly flew over the sea.
In less than a quarter of an hour, they were close to the small island. Yi Tian looked at the sea map and saw that they were already five hundred li deep into the inner sea. It was impossible for a human cultivator to appear here. Eastsea City's plan was to use this blind spot to seize the Dinghai Pearl. If they failed, at most they would lose a Foundation Establishment disciple.
Following the 'Blue Shark' slowly to the island, Yi Tian looked around and saw that there were rank 4 sea beasts patrolling the island. The entire island was divided into two areas, north and south. The north side was a group of reefs, and the south side was a flat area of forty zhang. The two Dinghai Pearls were placed there. Looking from afar, they looked like two huge shells with a white crystal bead the size of a baby's fist hanging on top of each shell.
"That's the origin power of the sea race's formation. It's now placed here to be refined. When the time is right, the two Saintesses will bring the Dinghai Pearls to the front line. At that time, it will be the time for the Blue Scaled Sea Race to attack." The 'Blue Shark' pointed at the Dinghai Pearls on the island.
Looking at the guards on the island, Yi Tian counted that there were nearly five rank 4 sea beasts and a group of rank 3 sea beasts. With such a formation, directly going to kidnap the Saintess was tantamount to throwing an egg at a rock. He looked back at the 'Blue Shark' and asked, "Then what should we do now?"
The 'Blue Shark' took out a piece of white oil and said, "This is whale fat. Burn it with rosin. It has a fatal attraction to the Blue Scaled Sea Race. Whales are their main source of food. I'll bury three Red Yang Mystic Bombs under the whale fat and try to get rid of them in one go. Then, we can take advantage of the chaos to kidnap the Saintess."
After nodding, Yi Tian signaled to follow the 'Blue Shark's' plan. He secretly sneaked to the other side of the island and waited for an opportunity to make a move. He prepared the Image Recording Pearl in his hand. This mission was to take the Dinghai Pearl. If he couldn't take it, he would directly destroy it on the spot. This way, he had to leave evidence so that he could report back to Eastsea City in the future.
