"Phew!"
Qin Xuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
First, he used his own essence blood to draw it, then used the snake Yao Beast's essence blood to draw it, and finally erased the snake Yao Beast's Divine Soul will before imbuing it into the Spirit Imbuing Talisman.
This process was indeed very energy-consuming.
"How powerful is this Talisman?"
Han Ye hurriedly asked.
"It can increase my combat power by 50% for the duration of an incense stick, even if that combat power has already been enhanced."
Fifty percent, that's a lot.
Even with the Vatican Four Holy Statues, this enhancement would still be effective, making the boost to combat power terrifying.
"Next, it's time to refine the Beast Luring Medicinal Pill and the Beast Repelling Incense."
Looking at the two large bags full of Spiritual Plants, Qin Xuan felt a tingling in his scalp.
"These things are not easy to refine!"
Fortunately, there were still a few days' journey to the East Sea, so Qin Xuan could refine them with peace of mind.
...
During the following period, Qin Xuan was engrossed in making these two items.
Both the Beast Luring Medicinal Pill and the Beast Repelling Incense, although the Materials used were not complex, required considerable effort to refine successfully.
Qin Xuan also concentrated his efforts on refining them.
Besides refining Medicinal Pills, Qin Xuan also spent his other time preparing some Talismans.
In addition to the Spirit Imbuing Talisman, there were many other Talismans that could be used for self-defense. Although these Talismans were not particularly powerful, they were extremely quick to use and could take effect immediately.
If he were truly besieged, these Talismans would be of great use.
Qianqian remained quietly in the room the entire time, showing no intention of coming out.
This made Qin Xuan feel both relieved and a little worried.
This woman was a bit too docile, so docile that it exceeded his expectations.
"I always feel like this woman is still planning something. Could it be that she has a way to break free from the Restriction I placed on her?"
After thinking for a moment, Qin Xuan shook his head.
Restrictions are not that easy to break free from.
Unless the master who set the Restriction later lifts it, a Cultivator under a Restriction is like a servant.
"Let Qianqian be for now. If she makes any unusual moves, I'll deal with her then. Anyway, we're not far from the East Sea now."
Since the other party was behaving, Qin Xuan couldn't pick a fight without reason.
Just like that, seven or eight days passed, and the Cloud Boat was getting closer and closer to the shores of the East Sea.
The salty and humid scent in the air also became increasingly clear.
"Are we there yet?"
Noticing the unusual air, Qin Xuan, who had finished refining the Beast Luring Medicinal Pill and Beast Repelling Incense, extended his Divine Soul to scout the surroundings.
"The Cloud Boat's speed is still too slow. In comparison, the Teleportation Array and Array Pattern Disk are much more convenient."
Qin Xuan sighed with emotion.
Although the Teleportation Array and Array Pattern Disk consumed more Spirit Stones each time, their speed was much faster.
"There's no way to use the Array Pattern Disk in a place like this, it would expose my trump card, and I might get targeted."
Qin Xuan didn't want his secret trump card to be exposed.
Standing up, Qin Xuan looked out from the window.
The East Sea was right before his eyes.
Qin Xuan walked out of his room and looked down from the Cloud Boat's deck.
From here, looking out, the sea and sky merged into one color in the extreme distance, separated only by a faint thin line. In a trance, Qin Xuan found it hard to distinguish where the sea was and where the sky was.
"This is the first time I've been to the seaside in my life. The scenery here is indeed different from my hometown."
Although there were plains in the Great Qian, most of the area consisted of mountain ranges.
This was the first time he had seen such a vast sea.
"No wonder the ancients said one must travel thousands of miles; only by traveling thousands of miles can one truly know how vast the heavens and earth are."
With a sigh of emotion, Qin Xuan continued to look forward, familiarizing himself with the environment here.
At this moment, the surface of the East Sea was calm, showing no ripples.
Qin Xuan picked up his token with some doubt, confirmed that the direction was correct, and continued to drive the Cloud Boat.
"Are there really sea Yao Beasts here?"
Qin Xuan looked around in confusion.
To be honest, looking at the calm sea surface here, he truly didn't think there would be any sea Yao Beasts.
"Of course not here. Sea Yao Beasts gather in the Wu Ji Sea near the Kun Peng Nest. That's the territory of the sea Yao Beasts. This place is too close to the shore, it's still Human Race territory."
Qianqian walked out of the room with a smile.
It seemed that after being cooped up for so long, she couldn't stay still anymore.
However, Qin Xuan's attention was drawn to her words.
"Human Race territory?"
This statement made Qin Xuan feel a bit strange, as in his view, the world had been controlled by humans up to this point.
There was no distinction between Human Race territory and non-Human Race territory at all.
The entire world should belong to the Human Race!
"That's right, on land, the Human Race is naturally the top race in the world, but the situation is different at sea. Beneath the surface of the sea, there are a large number of sea Yao Beasts and Yao Beasts. The Human Race's reach doesn't extend here, and these sea Yao Beasts are the true masters of this vast ocean."
"For example, the Kun Peng Nest, the sea beneath it is a paradise for sea Yao Beasts. Countless sea Yao Beasts surround the Kun Peng Nest. To get there, you either fly over or swim across the sea."
"However, because there are so many sea Yao Beasts, flying over from above is actually the only safe route."
"That sea area is called the Wu Ji Sea."
Hearing this, Qin Xuan nodded slightly.
If that was the case, then it made sense.
After all, sea Yao Beasts looked dangerous no matter how you viewed them.
Qin Xuan glanced at Qianqian, then was stunned, assessing her, and smiled as he cupped his hands towards Qianqian.
"Congratulations, Fairy. I didn't expect that in just under ten days, Fairy's cultivation would have improved again."
This woman's cultivation had actually improved again.
Seeing that Qin Xuan had seen through her cultivation at a glance, Qianqian's expression changed slightly, a little surprised.
She had originally used certain methods to conceal her cultivation.
But she didn't expect these methods to be completely ineffective in front of Qin Xuan, easily seen through by him.
"Young Master's spiritual sense is truly keen. Even such a small change in this humble one cannot be hidden from Young Master."
Qianqian gave a self-deprecating smile, while Qin Xuan shook his head slightly.
"It's nothing. My spiritual sense is naturally keen, so detecting these things is nothing. In comparison, Fairy's improvement in cultivation is even more remarkable."
What a joke, with the Double Pupils, such concealment was useless.
