CHAPTER 363: CHAPTER 209 NASCENT SOUL SPIRITUAL OBJECT, THE GREAT CATASTROPHE IS COMING!_2

Boom~~~

In an instant, the power of the Perception Talisman spread out, effortlessly enveloping the entire Fire Copper Island.

The range of perception compared to before was not only expanded, but also clearer and more detailed.

To a certain extent, it had a higher resolution.

Previously, he could only perceive the voices of many cultivators on the island.

But now, it had reached an extremely detailed level.

He could perceive the voices of nearly every cultivator distinctly, as if they were speaking right next to his ear.

Moreover, the sounds did not interfere with each other.

This feeling was incredibly mysterious.

At this moment, many independent cultivators on the island were discussing matters related to the Yiling Secret Realm.

After all, the Yiling Secret Realm had just closed, and many cultivators gained benefits from it.

This had already become the hottest topic in this sea area.

"Tsk tsk, this time the opening of the Yiling Secret Realm made many independent cultivators wealthy overnight. It’s said that some Qi Cultivation Stage independent cultivators obtained several Spiritual Artifacts and even some Foundation Establishment Spirit Medicine. It seems that Foundation Establishment is hopeful. In the future, more Foundation Establishment cultivators or even Foundation Establishment families will emerge in this sea area."

An independent cultivator said with envy, jealousy, and hate.

He wasn’t strong enough, so he did not venture into the Yiling Secret Realm.

But hearing the news of overnight wealth from the Yiling Secret Realm, he couldn’t help but feel envy and resent his cowardice.

"Alas, every time the Yiling Secret Realm appears, the number of Foundation Establishment cultivators in this sea area explodes, and for us, it is indeed an unprecedented opportunity, unfortunately only appearing once a century."

Many were also envious.

"Haha, always see others enjoying the benefits, without seeing them get hurt."

"Indeed, many independent cultivators gained benefits."

"But this opening of the Yiling Secret Realm also led to the deaths of many cultivators."

"At least more than half perished, which shows how perilous the Yiling Secret Realm is."

"Those who gained benefits from inside, which one isn’t an elite among elites."

Someone said eerily.

Although many envied the benefits gained by those independent cultivators, some also focused on the dangers of the Yiling Secret Realm.

This opening of the Secret Realm created many lucky ones but also led to the deaths of many cultivators.

Thus, the strength of the Yiling Island Group surprisingly remained balanced, not increasing much.

"That’s indeed the case."

"Not to speak of distant matters, take our Red Whale Island influence for example."

"It’s said Fan Hairong, Zhang Yunshang, Miao Feng, Huang Yunqiang, and other Foundation Establishment cultivators perished inside."

"It’s a loss of over half."

"Only Cao Rui, Peng Dezhe, Lu Haojing, and others from the Foundation Establishment still survived; it’s a heavy loss indeed."

Someone meticulously tallied the losses of the Red Whale Island influence this time.

To a certain extent, such a loss is comparable to waging war against other Golden Core influences.

But now these Foundation Establishment cultivators died in the Yiling Secret Realm; it’s really unfortunate.

"Fan Hairong died?"

Upon hearing this news, Jiang Fan was shocked, completely unforeseen that Fan Hairong would die.

After all, he had already dealt with those Black Shark Island Foundation Establishment cultivators.

By logic, even if Fan Hairong was severely injured, he should still be able to survive safely.

But now hearing about Fan Hairong’s death was truly unexpected.

Though upon careful consideration, it wasn’t entirely impossible.

After all, the Yiling Secret Realm was filled with great danger.

Even without the pursuit from Black Shark Island’s Foundation Establishment, there still existed many demons and other forces’ Foundation Establishment.

If Fan Hairong happened to be careless, he would still meet other calamities and perish.

One could only say he still didn’t change Fan Hairong’s fate.

Even though he saved Fan Hairong once, the other still fell in another calamity.

But this didn’t have much to do with him; he had already done his utmost.

"It’s not just our Red Whale Island Foundation Establishment dying so many."

"Actually, the most tragic is the Black Shark Island influence."

"It’s said they lost and had wounded ten to twenty Foundation Establishments this time."

"They don’t even know how those Foundation Establishment cultivators died."

"So the Black Shark Island influence lost troops and generals this time, fearing they won’t start a war for a long time."

Another person said, speaking about Black Shark Island’s situation.

But it’s not only Black Shark Island; for instance, Spirit Turtle Island and Fish Dragon Island’s forces also suffered heavy losses.

Many Foundation Establishment cultivators fell.

"It’s really great."

"With so many Foundation Establishment cultivators dead, there likely won’t be any wars in the Yiling Island Group anytime soon."

"It’s said every time the Yiling Secret Realm appears, this sea area remains calm for some time. It seems the rumor is indeed true, quite accurate."

"With so many Foundation Establishment cultivators dead and new ones not yet appearing, isn’t peace inevitable?"

"Indeed, it has to be recuperation and growth."

Many cultivators were delighted.

For these independent cultivators, the last thing they wanted to see was war.

Once war breaks out, these independent cultivators become cannon fodder, surely suffering countless deaths and injuries.

Even if victorious, they can’t reap many benefits from war.

Almost all benefits are seized by Foundation Establishment and Golden Core cultivators, leaving nothing for them.

So naturally, they don’t want war to break out; otherwise, they are the unlucky ones.

"It might not be inevitable that war breaks out."

"I know this time not only many Foundation Establishment cultivators perished, even some Golden Core Zhenren were the same."

"It seems some Golden Core Zhenren fell in the Secret Realm World, and some were seriously injured."

"For instance, our Red Whale Island’s Red Whale Daoist and his daughter appeared to have suffered quite some injuries."

"But the exact injuries are not yet known."

Someone spoke mysteriously.

What?!

This statement shocked everyone, feeling unbelievable.

If the Red Whale Daoist really encountered major issues, it would be of no benefit to them.

Since a Golden Core Zhenren is the pillar to their influence.

If collapsed, other cultivators won’t have a pleasant time either.

The islands in this sea would surely be eyed by other Golden Core influences.

What happens then is hard to say.

"No way, is this thing true or false? Don’t spout nonsense."

Many cultivators couldn’t help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

"I’m not spouting nonsense, the news came from elsewhere."

"It seems intentionally leaked by Fish Dragon Island’s Golden Core influences to let other influences know."

"Rumor has it, during this Yiling Secret Realm journey, the area Golden Core Zhenren were in encountered a great opportunity."

"Inside discovered a Nascent Soul Spiritual Object, which can aid Golden Core Zhenren to promote to Nascent Soul."

"This made Golden Core Zhenren go mad, even causing a war."

"After a fierce scramble, the treasure seems to have been obtained by Red Whale Daoist."

The person said solemnly, recounting all he knew.

But this news was too astonishing, causing the cultivators present to be utterly stunned.

"No way, Red Whale Daoist actually obtained the Nascent Soul Spiritual Object?"

"Troublesome, this is truly troublesome."

Many independent cultivators shivered.

There’s a saying: A man without guilt possesses jade and incurs guilt.

Previously, Red Whale Island became a neutral influence because Red Whale Daoist was about to perish, posing no threat to other influences, thus earning their respect.

But now, the situation completely changed.

Red Whale Daoist obtained the Nascent Soul Spiritual Object.

This is a rare treasure coveted by all Golden Core Zhenren.

If Red Whale Daoist had immense strength to suppress all influences, then it wouldn’t matter.

Other influences wouldn’t dare have improper thoughts.

The problem is Red Whale Daoist doesn’t have such absolute strength, certainly will be coveted by others.

Might even attract the siege of many Golden Core Zhenren.

The emergence of the Nascent Soul Spiritual Object will surely alter the landscape of all influences in this sea area.

Red Whale Island’s stable influence of hundreds of years might undergo earth-shattering changes.

These independent cultivators who rely on the Red Whale Island influence will certainly be embroiled in turmoil.

Disaster is coming!

This is the first thought in all independent cultivators’ minds.
