82: Chapter 82 First Encounter with Mortal Fate, Purchasing an Island in the Immortal City

Anyway, things were already like this; how much worse could it get? The Grand Elder had already said what needed to be said, and now it was up to the few Nascent Soul Old Ancestors to decide how to handle the Qingsha Sect.

A Nascent Soul Old Ancestor in Beihai Immortal City spoke up: "Let's put that aside for now; let's explore this Secret Realm first."

To them, this Secret Realm was more attractive.

As for why Hidden Dragon Island's strength had improved so quickly, it held no appeal for them at the moment; after all, it was only capable of killing a Golden Core Early Stage Cultivator.

It was possible that there was a hidden powerhouse on Hidden Dragon Island, and while they could easily destroy the island if they went, so what? There was no benefit to them in doing so.

It would be better to open the entrance to this Secret Realm directly, enter this large Secret Realm, and search for treasures inside that would be useful to them.

This was a large Secret Realm, and even if it looked filled with Devilish Qi, there should be plenty of Spirit Medicine and the like inside.

"Alright, other matters are not important. Let's open this Secret Realm entrance first."

"Old Monster Huang Yun is right; let's explore this Secret Realm first. Hidden Dragon Island is your own affair; solve it yourselves."

"Let's go!"

The few Nascent Soul Old Monsters exchanged glances, then headed towards the interior of the Qingsha Sect with extreme speed.

The others followed closely behind. At this moment, no one was thinking about Hidden Dragon Island; all eyes were fixed on the large Secret Realm inside the Qingsha Sect.

The four Grand Elders exchanged glances, their eyes filled with helplessness.

If they had known this would happen, they wouldn't have mentioned the Secret Realm at all. They hadn't expected that there really was a Secret Realm inside the Qingsha Sect, and a large one at that; now, it no longer belonged to them.

Moreover, if the resources in this large Secret Realm were good, Qingsha Island might not even belong to them in the future.

"Third Brother, Fourth Brother, go and gather the Disciples of the sect."

"Second Brother, come with me to take a look at that Secret Realm."

"Regardless, this Secret Realm appeared in my Qingsha Sect, so I want to see what good things are inside."

The other three hurriedly said: "Yes, Grand Elder."

The culprit, Li Luochen, had already returned to Hidden Dragon Island. After some thought, he didn't hesitate in the slightest and quickly headed outside.

This time, he wasn't planning to go elsewhere, but intended to go to Beihai Immortal City.

Hidden Dragon Island was no longer safe. If other powerhouses really came knocking, he would directly relocate his clansmen.

However, he wasn't willing to abandon the foundation of Hidden Dragon Island. Since that was the case, he would find a way to purchase other islands.

Although the Li Family currently had quite a few Spirit Stones, Li Luochen didn't intend to do that. He prepared to take the teleportation array from Beihai Immortal City to the Deep Sea Cultivation World, and then purchase a spirit island to establish a new base for the Family.

You shouldn't put all your eggs in one basket. Hidden Dragon Island might very well be targeted by some people now, but the overseas Cultivation World was very large.

In Beihai Immortal City, most of the powerhouses here had been attracted by the large Secret Realm. Li Luochen had just arrived, and he was able to take the teleportation array to leave.

After all, he was projecting a Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivation, and he definitely didn't intend to share the teleportation array with others.

Spending 30,000 Spirit Stones, Li Luochen appeared in Chenyuan Immortal City, which was at the center of the Chenyuan Archipelago.

The Chenyuan Archipelago was much larger than the Beimen Archipelago. There were five Nascent Soul forces here, the most central of which was the Chenyuan Sect, which possessed a Peak Nascent Soul powerhouse.

Although the other four forces also had Nascent Soul Old Monsters, their strength wasn't very powerful, merely being in the Nascent Soul Early or Middle Stage.

After Li Luochen appeared in Chenyuan Immortal City, he headed directly to the island sales office.

At the island sales office, the moment Li Luochen stepped inside, the Golden Core Old Ancestor sitting within sensed him.

At this moment, Li Luochen was displaying a Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivation; it wasn't very powerful, but it wasn't weak either.

Upon seeing that Golden Core powerhouse, Li Luochen hurriedly bowed.

"Junior Li Mochen greets you, Senior."

This name was, of course, chosen at random. When out and about, one shouldn't just give out their real name.

If he happened to run into a Cultivator who knew curse arts, it would be troublesome if they used his name to curse him to death.

It was better to just say a random name. Anyway, he was here to buy a spirit island. The Chenyuan Sect was different from the Qingsha Sect; once an island was purchased, it belonged entirely to them, and there wouldn't be any protection fees.

The Golden Core Old Ancestor nodded slightly and said: "Hmm, I wonder what kind of island you are looking for?"

This fellow was very direct, and Li Luochen was also very direct, asking: "Junior requires one with a Medium Grade 2nd-tier Spiritual Vein, and the area needs to be a bit larger."

The Golden Core powerhouse nodded slightly and began to ponder. Then, he took out a topographical map and placed it in front of Li Luochen.

"Fellow Daoist, take a look. How about this island?"

As he spoke, his finger pointed towards a relatively remote island. This island was some distance away from Chenyuan Island, and surrounded by some small islands.

"This island is called Wufang Island, with an area reaching 800 square kilometers, and it has a Medium Grade 2nd-tier Spiritual Vein."

"In addition to this Medium Grade 2nd-tier Spiritual Vein, there are also two 1st-tier top grade Spiritual Veins. If cultivated with care, they could also become Low Grade 2nd-tier Spiritual Veins."

"Originally, this island belonged to a Foundation Establishment Family, but later it was overrun by Yao Beasts, and the entire clan was wiped out."

"If you want it, Fellow Daoist, I can give you this island for 3.5 million Spirit Stones. How about it?"

3.5 million Spirit Stones was nothing to Li Luochen, and this island was indeed quite good; the price was very reasonable.

However, if Li Luochen just brought out so many Spirit Stones, even a Golden Core Old Ancestor would be tempted. He wasn't here to show off his Spirit Stones.

"Senior, the price of this island is too high. My budget is somewhat insufficient; please forgive me, Senior."

"Could you pick a cheaper island? I would be very grateful."

That person didn't get angry, but instead asked: "Then I wonder how many Spirit Stones you intend to spend? We can select one for you according to your budget, how about that?"

Li Luochen was overjoyed and hurriedly nodded quickly.

"Senior, I have prepared 2.3 million Spirit Stones. Let's purchase one at most for this price."

In reality, he could afford the one that was introduced earlier, but to prevent others from knowing he had so many Spirit Stones, it was better to keep a low profile.

Moreover, his true cultivation was Golden Core Early Stage, the same cultivation as this Golden Core Stage powerhouse, so he wasn't afraid of being robbed.

The Golden Core Old Ancestor nodded slightly. It was only a little over two million Spirit Stones, which was nothing to the Chenyuan Sect; even his own net worth was more than that.

Furthermore, Li Luochen still had to use these Spirit Stones to buy a spirit island, so the Spirit Stones left on him would definitely not be much, and there was no reason to rob him.

As for that island, the Chenyuan Sect looked down on it; the Chenyuan Sect had many 3rd-tier Spiritual Veins under its command, and he himself even had a spirit island with a 3rd-tier Spiritual Vein.

"How about this one? The entire spirit island is very large, with 900 square kilometers, and it only has one Medium Grade 2nd-tier Spiritual Vein. It is worth 2.2 million Spirit Stones. What do you think, little friend?"

Li Luochen looked at the island, and after confirming there were no hidden dangers, he decided on this island.

"Senior, I will take this spirit island."

A Medium Grade 2nd-tier Spiritual Vein could absolutely cultivate quite a few spirit fields and Spirit Medicine fields.

Coupled with such a large area, he could also bring over quite a few ordinary clansmen to settle; this was simply perfect.

It was a pity that there were no other Prototype Secret Realms in the System rewards; otherwise, he could have completely set up the teleportation array inside one.

However, given the current strength of the Li Family, protecting one or two teleportation arrays shouldn't be a problem.
