75: Chapter 75 Return to the Immortal Realm's Giant Stone City
Everyone was waiting outside as well, but to their surprise, Xu Xinyue emerged even faster!
In just a few breaths, she walked out of the palace.
This led most people to believe that she had not passed the Legacy trial.
Seeing Xu Xinyue come out, Cao Yang immediately stepped forward, put his arm around her shoulder, and asked with concern: "Xinyue, how was it? Did you successfully receive the Legacy?"
Xu Xinyue smiled and nodded, indicating that she had already obtained the Legacy, but the details would need to be explained in full once they returned to their residence.
Cao Yang did not press further, only replying softly: "Alright."
When the surrounding people heard that Xu Xinyue had successfully passed the trial and obtained the Sea God Temple Legacy, they could not help but feel surprised and envious.
However, Cao Yang did not care about the reactions of others; he spoke directly to Haigu: "Since the matter of the Legacy has been resolved, Haigu, you are responsible for organizing the members of the Sea Clan and preparing to migrate to the Immortal Realm."
Just then, Xu Xinyue suddenly interjected: "Brother Cao, it actually doesn't need to be that troublesome. This island itself is a Magic Treasure, and I have successfully claimed it as my own. I can teleport everyone directly to the Immortal Realm."
Hearing this, everyone revealed looks of pleasant surprise.
They also yearned for the Immortal Realm, but unfortunately, they could not get close to the black hole from before; they would get injured the moment they approached it.
"Hmm, that would be for the best," Cao Yang said with a nod.
He also had not expected this scorched island to actually be a treasure.
Now he realized why he had felt a sense of familiarity when he first stepped onto the island.
Because he had felt this sensation from Hong Yi and Hong Er before; it was something indescribable.
Thus, the three of them decided to first leave the Sea God World and then find a place to settle the Sea Clan.
This time, with a single thought from Xu Xinyue, Cao Yang, Ye Xiaoyao, and Xu Xinyue appeared on the scorched island.
Cao Yang had a sudden whim to check in on the island.
After all, this was a treasure he could not see through; would checking in on it yield any unexpected gains?
But after thinking about it, he was afraid that checking in would directly grant him this treasure, and wouldn't that be stealing his own woman's possession?
Forget it, just check in. If that really happens, he could just give it back to her. Besides, what if there were other gains?
"System, check in." Cao Yang thought to himself.
"Beep. Congratulations to the Host for successfully checking in at the Sacred Artifact Seven-Colored Sacred Pagoda. You have obtained one drop of top-grade holy liquid."
"Beep. Congratulations to the Host for obtaining 500,000 years of Genius cultivation base."
"Beep. Congratulations to the Host for obtaining one hair strand of an Extreme Dao Saint."
What? A hair strand? What is the use of this thing?
Cao Yang was speechless, but the first two rewards were not bad. The holy liquid sounded like Advanced goods.
Cao Yang immediately looked into the System space:
One drop of top-grade holy liquid: Can assist a half-step Saint in achieving a Breakthrough to Saint (First Tribulation), and can also cause items below the Saint Rank to advance to the Saint Rank.
One hair strand of an Extreme Dao Saint: The pressure can instantly turn a half-step Saint into nothingness (ineffective against the Host).
Hiss. He hadn't expected a single hair strand to be so powerful. This was absolutely a supreme nuclear bomb against anyone below a Saint!
Cao Yang looked at the colorful water droplet floating in the air within the System space, alongside a golden hair strand that looked like a golden needle, with terrifying lightning swirling around it, causing the System space to tremble slightly.
Fortunately, it was ineffective against him. It was too terrifying!
Although Cao Yang didn't know how strong a Saint was, by now, the pressure of the Extreme Dao Saint's hair strand had been completely erased by the System.
Yet, his mindless Puppet, the Xuanwu, was still instinctively huddled in the corner of the System space, shivering.
This was caused the moment the Saint's hair strand first appeared in the System space; it was all a result of the System's suppression.
If not for the System, the Xuanwu might have vanished the instant it appeared.
Seeing this left Cao Yang stunned for a breath. Xu Xinyue, who was by his side, saw this and shook Cao Yang's hand: "Brother Cao, are you alright?"
"I'm fine. Xinyue, do you know what Rank this treasure you claimed is?" Cao Yang regained his senses and transmitted his voice.
"Brother Cao, this treasure is a top-grade holy artifact called the Seven-Colored Sacred Pagoda," Xu Xinyue also replied via voice transmission.
"Hmm, alright. Xinyue, put this treasure away first, and we will find a place to settle the Sea Clan," Cao Yang said with a smile.
"Alright."
The three of them flew high into the sky, hovering in mid-air.
Xu Xinyue gently beckoned, and the scorched island transformed into a colorful giant tower.
The tower slowly shrank and flew toward Xu Xinyue, landing in her hand shortly after.
"It's done, Brother Cao." Xu Xinyue smiled sweetly at Cao Yang.
Ye Xiaoyao, who was beside them, had her worldview overturned.
She had not expected that she had been living inside someone else's treasure all along.
Before long, they found a massive island. The island was rich in resources and very suitable for living.
Thus, Cao Yang set up a Barrier on the island capable of resisting an Immortal Emperor at the Early Stage, and moved the Sea Clan members inside.
How they would establish a foothold in the South Sea from then on would depend on them.
When the three of them returned to Giant Stone City this time, Cao Yang teleported several times in succession and arrived at Giant Stone City.
Cao Yang settled Xiong An and his clan members in Giant Stone City, ensuring he took sufficient measures to protect their lives.
The three returned to the City Lord's Mansion.
The two women went back to Xu Xinyue's courtyard, while Cao Yang headed toward his own courtyard.
Before he even reached his courtyard, he was stopped by Xu Buli again.
"Oh, Uncle, what do you need?" Cao Yang asked with confusion.
Xu Buli said respectfully: "Lord Immortal King, it is like this: the Imperial Dynasty has sent people, and they have been waiting for you for several days.
I have arranged for them to rest in the guest rooms. When would you like to see them?"
After hearing this, Cao Yang remembered that he had not used his immortal sense to observe the situation inside the City Lord's Mansion.
He had not expected guests to arrive.
His immortal sense swept across, discovering that there were three visitors in total, among whom was a Cultivator at the Early Stage of the Immortal Emperor.
"Hmm, have them wait in the main hall. I will be there in a moment," Cao Yang said indifferently.
"Yes, Lord Immortal King." Xu Buli hurriedly replied and turned to leave.
Cao Yang returned to his courtyard, picked up a cup of immortal tea, took a light sip, and whispered to himself: "An envoy from the Bright Moon Immortal Dynasty? To think they sent an Immortal Emperor, this is somewhat interesting."
He thought of the King of the Southwest of the Bright Moon Immortal Dynasty, the Tianwu Immortal King, whom he had killed not long ago, and could not help but wonder how Empress Mingyue would handle this matter.
If she made an excessive decision, he would simply suppress her and take her into his harem.
He had heard that Empress Mingyue was the most beautiful woman in the Immortal Realm, and in her youth, she could be described as peerless in grace.
Many powerhouses had always pursued her but failed.
He actually also wanted to see this number one beauty of the Immortal Realm!
When he had time later, he must go and see this great beauty.
He was a man with a System; if others couldn't do it, how could he not?
Thinking of this, the corners of Cao Yang's mouth rose slightly, and a trace of a smile flashed in his eyes.
He put down the teacup, stood up, and walked toward the main hall.
Meanwhile, Hong Yi and Hong Er quietly vanished into the shadows, following behind him.
