Nine Revolutions Star Technique

Ye Qingchen had never intended to suppress the East Sea, especially with the Thirty-Six Sects still around. Even though he wasn’t afraid of the Thirty-Six Sects, Su Moran and Bai Ji were different.

That’s why.

Ye Qingchen used pills as a guide to gather all the Heavenly and Earthly Treasures from the East Sea to help Su Moran, whose cultivation was restricted, and to treat Bai Ji’s yet-to-heal serious injuries. Even though the East Sea’s islands were barren, the Heavenly and Earthly Treasures produced over thousands of years wouldn’t be few.

Fortunately, it didn’t take much time for Ye Qingchen to collect most of the materials.

”Didn’t expect to gain a pleasant surprise at Cyan Cloud Island!”

Ye Qingchen played with a piece of Jade Marrow in his hand, his face full of joy.

After slaying Zou Ji Dao, the next step was naturally to seize Cyan Cloud Island. Although Zou Ji Dao had ordered the initialization of the ’Cyan Clouds and Sea Array’ before his departure, how could it resist Ye Qingchen’s offensive?

Moreover, there were the Seventy-Two Islands assisting from the sideline.

Cyan Cloud Island was the largest force in the East Sea, accumulating wealth for thousands of years with rich heritage; otherwise, it wouldn’t be called the underground leader capable of threatening Ye Qingchen with the force of the Seventy-Two Islands.

But at this moment, they faced a backlash.

The people of Cyan Cloud Island were still scheming, considering the overwhelming heritage Cyan Cloud Island possessed, with the help of the ’Cyan Clouds and Sea Array’, resisting Ye Qingchen for ten days or half a month wouldn’t be a problem. They could retreat and relocate calmly, hopefully rising again.

But they didn’t expect the masters of the Seventy-Two Islands to unanimously defect, with the sword originally pointed at Ye Qingchen now turned against themselves overnight.

After conquering Cyan Cloud Island, Luo Lin’an unexpectedly found an unpolished jade in Zou Ji Dao’s treasure vault!

Stone with Jade!

This ancient jade was mottled with the marks of time, half hidden within a stone, the other half exposed. Compared to other Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, it fell far behind. But the main function of this stone with jade was to break restrictions.

”With this stone with jade, I can help Su Moran break Yu Hongqing’s seal ahead of time!”

Cyan Cloud Island.

Sea View Cliff.

This place was Zou Ji Dao’s usual spot for seclusion and cultivation, but now, it had been requisitioned by Ye Qingchen. Numerous top-level Earth Immortals guarded the way, preparing defenses at every layer; this small cliff island was regarded as the most secure area in the entire Star Gathering Scattered Island, and rightly so.

At this moment, Ye Qingchen sat atop the cliff island, continuously forming hand seals.

The Jade Marrow emitted brilliant light, transforming into crossbow arrows and being cast forth.

Just as seen.

Before him, Su Moran’s body appeared with restrictions, like huge black chains moving like swimming dragons or serpents. At the center of these chains, a transparent phantom was bound.

That was clearly Su Moran’s soul!

As the light was infused, the chains gradually became insubstantial and dim. Once they could no longer sustain themselves, they shattered and disintegrated with a ’bang’. Simultaneously, Su Moran’s power increased by a fraction.

”Naturally a Celestial Immortal!”

Ye Qingchen secretly marveled.

”These chains look ordinary, but they’re formed from the Spiritual Qi across hundreds of miles, containing tremendous power within each chain. Without external assistance, they might truly confine Su Moran for half a lifetime!”

”His strength easily surpasses Zou Ji Dao...”

Ye Qingchen furrowed his brow slightly.

He managed to defeat Zou Ji Dao due to the opponent’s unfamiliarity with the Power of Heaven and Earth just after entering the Celestial Immortal stage. If the opponent became well-versed in Celestial Immortal powers, Ye Qingchen would face a tough battle!

”I still need to find a way to break through and enter the Celestial Immortal Realm as quickly as possible!”

Thinking of this, Ye Qingchen continued forming seals, with radiant light bombarding the restriction.

”However, the East Sea doesn’t have many Heavenly and Earthly Treasures; obtaining them isn’t easy! Unless I go to that place again...”

He tightened his brow.

Despite offering pills as compensation, Ye Qingchen nearly scoured half of the East Sea but didn’t find a Heavenly and Earthly Treasure that truly moved him. To seek further, he’d likely need to visit the Enchanting Sea Region!

”So be it, I must go personally!”

’Crack!’

While Ye Qingchen was lost in thought.

Suddenly, a quiet sound, unheard by ordinary people, resonated.

Just as seen.

An abrupt tremor ran through the chain, cracks appearing violently and quickly spreading over the black chain. Soon unable to endure, it collapsed with a roar, dispersing into countless black glows vanishing into the void space.

Almost as the chain exploded, the remaining chains could no longer restrain Su Moran’s power!

”Clatter!”

At this moment.

Su Moran’s Half-Step Celestial Immortal Realm, once confined, burst forth like an unleashed flood, surging into the sky! The rolling aura stirred tumultuous waves, akin to a stampede, monumental in its magnitude.

”Finally broke free!”

Su Moran suddenly stood.

The six-month seal had nearly driven her to the brink of frustration.

Before she could speak.

Almost simultaneously, a surge of billowing demonic energy erupted not far away.

Just as seen, at the cliff’s other end, Bai Ji, in white fox form, had demonic energy swirling around, eventually transforming into a woman with long silver hair, elegant white robe, and fox-like ears.

Behind her, rolling demonic energy coalesced, lastly forming a furry, white fox tail, then another, a third, fourth, fifth...

Eventually.

She became a nine-tailed woman.

In this moment, demonic energy soared heavenward, almost breaking through the monstrous waves and clouds enveloping the cliff island, forcefully pushing back the massive waves several hundred feet from the island.

Even hundreds of miles away, it could be felt.

However.

The fleeting phantom faded, merging into Bai Ji’s body.

”Seems her essence has fully recovered, our efforts weren’t in vain!” Ye Qingchen rubbed his chin; for Bai Ji, he had exhausted most of the Heavenly and Earthly Treasures obtained from those in the East Sea.

”However, her origins are far more mysterious than I imagined!”

Although Ye Qingchen had arrived in the Kunlun Realm not long ago, he had traversed Southern Heaven, Extreme North, and the East Sea, believing himself to be well-experienced, not inferior to top-level Earth Immortals.

He had seen various supernatural entities, yet never one like Bai Ji capable of transforming into human form.

But upon reflection.

A presence capable of saving them from the ferocious attack of Taotian Palace couldn’t be an ordinary supernatural entity.

”However, since Su Moran’s seal is broken and Bai Ji has recovered, I can confidently head to the Enchanting Sea Region!”

”Just right, I’ve delayed settling accounts with the Thirty-Six Sects for quite some time, now’s the perfect opportunity to resolve it!”

With this thought, a cold glint flashed in Ye Qingchen’s eyes.
