Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 606 Fierce Battle in the East China Sea, Undercover Agent at the Rendezvous (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Why is the "Tianluo Dao Sect" different from other behemoth sects this time?
It was all Li Yunjing's doing that completely enraged the "Tianluo Dao Sect"!
Another reason is that the Shenxiao Dao Sect did not mobilize its full strength, which made the Tianluo Dao Sect somewhat underestimate the so-called East Sea Alliance.

At the pre-battle meeting, the high-ranking officials of the "Tianluo Dao Sect" and its allied forces unanimously agreed to a swift and decisive victory to break through the "Sacred Sound Sea" defense line in one fell swoop.

The results were not satisfactory.

The "East Sea Alliance" also had the support of the sea race and the demon race, which caused Xuan Tianji's plan to fail temporarily.

The Tianluo Dao Sect paid such a high price but gained nothing. How could Xuan Tianji accept this?

If it's dark in the east, it's bright in the west!
The recently defeated "Demon Alliance" naturally became the target and was wiped out in one fell swoop. In the process, all the resources of the "Four Seas Chamber of Commerce" were also confiscated by the "Tianluo Dao Sect" to restore its strength.

Furthermore, with the "Holy Sound Sea" having been conquered, the "Tianluo Dao Sect" was relatively satisfied with the situation.

"Everyone."

Xuan Tianji looked around and said in a deep voice, "The Demonic Sect left behind six fourth-order spiritual veins and a great deal of wealth. I will now arrange for people to first wipe out the 'Netherworld Sea' and divide everything that the Demonic Sect has to themselves. What do you all think?"

"Sect Master, this is a good idea!"

Elder Xuandan, who was in charge of logistics, immediately said, "I'm the first to agree! We've used up a lot of our reserves in this battle, so it's perfect to use the Demonic Sect's resources to recover!"

"Not bad!"

A glint flashed in the eyes of the law enforcement elder. "I will personally lead a fleet and, while I'm at it, wipe out those demonic sects that didn't participate, and wipe out all the demonic cultivators in the East Sea in one fell swoop!"

"This matter is entrusted to you."

Xuan Tianji nodded slightly: "You will lead ten Nascent Soul Realm fellow disciples, one hundred Golden Core Realm elders, and ten thousand Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators, aboard three 'floating warships,' to bring back all the resources of the 'Netherworld Sea.'"

"I will obey the sect master's decree!"

The law enforcement elder was overjoyed. He loved this kind of action that not only beat a drowning dog but also provided endless resources.

This is a lucrative job!

After the elder in charge of law enforcement left with some of his fellow disciples, Xuan Tianji suddenly changed the subject, "What's the situation with the 'East Sea Alliance'?"

"The 'Azure Sea Palace' is urgently repairing its defensive array."

Master Xuan Ying, in charge of intelligence, unfolded a jade slip: "It is worth noting that 'ancient bronze bell'..."

"I know."

Xuan Tianji suddenly interrupted, letting out a cold snort, "It's that beast Li Yunjing! I received intelligence that this item comes from the 'Heavenly Ruins Secret Realm,' and that little bastard snatched this magical treasure! He deserves to die!"

When this matter was mentioned, everyone fell silent.

Everyone knows about the tragedy of the near annihilation of the younger generation of the "Tianluo Dao Sect," and the culprit was Li Yunjing!

……

Over the next two weeks, the Tianluo Dao Sect made frequent moves, with many ships leaving and a large number of Qi Refining Realm cultivators being mobilized to the front lines to build fortifications, set up restrictions, and assist in the establishment of the grand formation.

This is clearly a move that reflects a long-term standoff.

During this period, the "East Sea Alliance" did not take advantage of the fact that the "Tianluo Dao Sect" had transferred a portion of its troops to launch an attack.

The "East China Sea Alliance" also needs time to recover its strength and prepare for the next decisive battle.

Both sides coincidentally dispatched elite ten-person teams to repeatedly appear at the border of the "Azure Sea Palace Area" and the "Sacred Sound Area" to gather intelligence and assassinate each other.

The atmosphere inside the Bihai Palace was somber.

"The Tianluo Dao Sect has blockaded the Holy Sound Sea, and all our merchant ships and spies have been intercepted!"

Li Yunjing synthesized the information and reported it to the Five Elements Master.

"What a clever trick by Xuan Tianji! He's going to wage a slow and drawn-out war against us!"

The Five Elements Master pondered for a moment, then suddenly sneered, "This is a good thing! Then let's grant their wish and play with them slowly!"

With this agreement reached, both sides tacitly agreed that the Nascent Soul cultivators would no longer make a move.

Every day, Foundation Establishment cultivators fight each other, and every ten days or so, Golden Core cultivators take action. The Tianluo Dao Sect's fleet confronts the cultivators of the East Sea Alliance from a distance, occasionally exchanging fire to test each other.

The two armies formed a great array, their light intertwining, illuminating the sea so that it remained perpetually in daylight.

Under these circumstances, Li Yunjing announced that he would go into seclusion.

This news surprised many people.

It should be noted that Li Yunjing is the vice leader of the "East Sea Alliance," the head of the Enforcement Hall, the number one person in the Golden Core Realm, and in charge of the overall situation.

He's gone into seclusion and won't come out. Are we going to let those old guys step in?
When someone inquired with the Five Elements Master, they learned that Li Yunjing had recently gained some enlightenment and was going into seclusion to break through to the fourth level of the Golden Core Realm.

Since he was about to break through, the crowd naturally couldn't force Li Yunjing to do so!

In the world of cultivation, breaking through to a higher realm through seclusion is an extremely important matter!
Unless it involves a major event like the destruction of a sect or family, those in charge generally won't easily go to a secluded cultivation place to awaken a cultivator who is about to break through their cultivation level.

Li Yunjing had already left the "Bihai Palace" and had no intention of going into seclusion.

With the situation on the battlefield stabilized, Li Yunjing immediately discussed with the Five Elements True Man and prepared to carry out the secret order issued by the Sect Master, Supreme Ming Lingchuan!

When he left, Li Yunjing secretly met with Lin Xuan and introduced him to the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" to become his disciple.

In addition to bestowing Lin Xuan with a collection of treasures, Li Yunjing also introduced Lin Xuan to the Dan Ding Peak Master.

Let Lin Xuan temporarily follow the Dan Ding Peak Master to learn the sect's rules and, incidentally, learn some real skills.

As for the affairs of the Enforcement Hall, they were handed over to Wen Bin.

Compared to the demure Liao Wanqing, Li Yunjing believed that the swordsman Wen Bin was more fair in his dealings.

Two weeks later, in the depths of the East China Sea.

An unremarkable gray spirit boat cut through the waves, and standing at the bow was an ordinary-looking cultivator in a blue robe, none other than Li Yunjing, who had changed his appearance and aura.

Now, he has disguised himself as a rogue cultivator at the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Such a level of cultivation is neither too high nor too low, not enough to cause trouble, nor enough to arouse fear or excessive attention.

The "Sacred Sound Sea" is naturally impassable.

Therefore, Li Yunjing boarded a spirit boat and sailed south from the "Azure Sea Palace" area, making a large circle, bypassing the "Sacred Sound Sea" area, and heading towards the depths of the East China Sea.

For this reason, Li Yunjing wasted a full half month.

This period of time was not wasted.

The route he chose, combined with the deductions made by the Heavenly Secrets Technique, actually allowed him to safely enter the territory occupied by the "Tianluo Dao Sect".

At this moment, standing on the deck, Li Yunjing held the "Heavenly Profound Compass" in his hand, the pointer always pointing to the southeast.

Those were the coordinates mentioned in the secret order from Sect Leader Ming Lingchuan.

Two years later, the spirit boat had entered the "Lingyuan Island waters" it had visited before.

Previously, "Lingyuan Island" was a sea area near "Tianluo Dao Sect". Now, it has become the territory of "Tianluo Dao Sect".

Li Yunjing gazed at the calm sea, his brows slightly furrowed.

Upon arriving here, he clearly sensed an increase in the number of cultivators. His spirit boat, sailing on the sea, had already been inspected four times by the patrol team of the "Tianluo Dao Sect"!

Fortunately, none of the patrol teams were skilled enough to see through his disguise, which allowed Li Yunjing to get away with it.

During this period, Li Yunjing also encountered some troubles.

There were difficulties from pirates, as well as from various sects and families, and even attacks from monsters and sea beasts.

In the vast ocean, murder and robbery are commonplace occurrences.

Some people die here, and not a trace is left.

Li Yunjing naturally showed no mercy to those with ill intentions. Even though he tried to keep a low profile, he still managed to kill over a thousand cultivators and demonic beasts along the way.

This allowed him to accumulate a lot of "junk".

When Li Yunjing encountered the Tianluo Dao Sect patrol team, he casually gave them some of his "junk," which made his journey much smoother.

On this day, after many hardships, Li Yunjing finally arrived at the "Tianluo Sea Area"!
"Tianluo Sea Area" is the first sea area in the East China Sea.

The entire sea area covers 100,000 li.

There are thousands of islands in this sea area.

These islands range in size from as large as a continent to as small as hundreds of miles.

At least half of the islands in the "Tianluo Sea" are suitable for cultivators to live on, and they contain spiritual veins and spiritual objects of various levels.

Li Yunjing was about to find a contact point, but according to the compass, the destination should be here. However, there was nothing but a vast expanse of sea in front of him.

This gave Li Yunjing a bad feeling.

You know, there are many tribulations in the cultivation world. Could it be that Ming Lingchuan's pawn has been killed?
Then his trip was for nothing, wasn't it?
Thinking of this, Li Yunjing frowned and his face darkened.

Who is lingering here?

Just then, a shout interrupted Li Yunjing's thoughts, and several people appeared in front of him.

Judging from their uniform attire, these people were clearly dressed differently from those of the "Tianluo Dao Sect," suggesting they were a minor sect affiliated with the "Tianluo Dao Sect."

"How should we address these friends?"

Li Yunjing's heart skipped a beat, and he asked gently, "We're asking you! Not you asking us! Quickly explain your purpose, or else, we, the 'Wuya Sect,' will make you regret it!"

A young man pointed at Li Yunjing and roared impatiently.

"Wuya Sect?"

Upon hearing these three words, Li Yunjing was shocked. Wasn't the person he was looking for the leader of the "Wuyamen" sect?

"Young man, please don't be angry. I am an old friend of the 'Wuya Sect' and have a past relationship with your sect leader, Yue Wuya. I am his junior!"

Li Yunjing explained with a smile.

"what!"

The patrolling disciples were startled.

Yue Wuyai is the leader and founder of the "Wuya Sect," a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.

Does this kid really know the sect leader?

The group looked at each other, somewhat hesitant.

Li Yunjing's unusual background left the group somewhat bewildered.

If what this person says is true, wouldn't they offend him if they didn't inform him? But if this person is an imposter, full of lies, wouldn't they be blamed by the sect leader if they went to report it themselves?

"You just wait!"

The leading patrolling disciple hesitated for a moment before finally taking out a sound transmission talisman and lighting it.

The talisman turned into wisps of green smoke and dissipated. A moment later, a majestic voice rang in everyone's ears: "Bring him in."

The disciples immediately straightened up and looked at Li Yunjing with more respect.

"Senior, please follow me."

The young disciple, who had been arrogant just moments before, now bowed his head and spoke humbly.

"Thank you all for your help."

Li Yunjing smiled slightly and followed the others as they flew into the depths of the sea.

After flying for about half an hour, a fog suddenly rose from the sea ahead.

The disciple leading the way took out a jade tablet, infused it with magical power, and the mist immediately parted, revealing a huge island floating on the sea.

The main island is surrounded by seven smaller islands arranged in the shape of the Big Dipper, their spiritual energy so dense it is almost tangible.

"What a magnificent 'Seven Stars Suspended Formation'!"

Li Yunjing secretly admired him.

Although the "Wuyamen" is a small sect, the arrangement of its mountain-protecting formation is quite mysterious, clearly indicating that it was guided by a master.

The group landed in the central plaza of the main island.

In the distance, in front of the main hall, an old man in a gray robe stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze sweeping over like lightning.

"Junior Li Wutian comes from 'Chuanling Island'. Greetings, Senior Yue."

Li Yunjing stepped forward to pay his respects, while secretly observing the leader of the "Wuyamen" sect.

Yue Wuyai appeared old, but his spiritual energy was solid and he actually had the cultivation level of the second level of the Nascent Soul Realm, which was even stronger than described in the intelligence.

It seems that Yue Wuyai has made progress over the years, even exceeding Ming Lingchuan's expectations.

Upon hearing the name "Chuan Ling," Yue Wuyai was greatly shocked. Ming Lingchuan!
"You come with me!"

Yue Wuyai waved for his disciples to leave, said four words to Li Yunjing, and turned to leave.

Li Yunjing followed silently behind.

The two walked for a full quarter of an hour, passing through seven or eight pavilions and towers, before finally arriving at a cave.

The entrance to the cave had three large characters written on it: "Boundless Cave"!
Guided by Yue Wuyai, Li Yunjing followed him into the cave.

The caves here are not deep.

The two had only walked ten zhang when they arrived in front of a stone gate.

Yue Wuyai cast a spell, and the stone door creaked open slowly, revealing a simple secluded cultivation room to Li Yunjing.

The secluded meditation room, which was about seven or eight zhang in diameter, contained only three futons, a row of bookshelves on the surrounding walls, a table, two chairs, and an ever-burning lamp; there was nothing else there.

"Is this where Yue Wuyai usually cultivates?"

Li Yunjing thought to himself.

At the same time, he realized that Yue Wuyai was actually a hermit cultivator. No wonder his cultivation level had improved so quickly!

They have enough talent, and they work even harder than the average person.

It would be truly unjust if someone like that didn't quickly improve their cultivation.

Yue Wuyai stared at Li Yunjing for a moment, then suddenly raised his hand and set up a soundproof barrier: "That old fellow Ming Lingchuan, finally decided to send someone?"

Li Yunjing was startled, but he didn't show it on his face.

He took out a token from his pocket.

The token is inscribed with the two characters "Shenxiao" on the front, and it is the symbol of the sect leader.

Upon seeing this item, one knows that Li Yunjing's identity is no longer in question.

"It really is that old fox's 'Divine Firmament Token'!"

Upon seeing the token, Yue Wuyai's eyes flashed with a sharp light: "Sit down and let's talk!"

The two sat down at the desk, one table apart, and sized each other up.

“In recent years, the ‘Tianluo Daozong’ suddenly investigated its affiliated sects, and I had no choice but to destroy all contact marks.”

Yue Wuyai personally brewed a pot of spiritual tea. As the aroma of the tea filled the air, he asked in a deep voice, "What brings you here, risking your life?"

"The Supreme Master ordered me to come to the 'Tianluo Sea Area' to cause trouble for the 'Tianluo Dao Sect'."

Li Yunjing took a sip of tea and said slowly, "I am not familiar with this place and need your help and assistance so that I can have a legitimate identity in the 'Tianluo Sea'!"

The sect leader of Wuya sized up Li Yunjing, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.

"The Divine Firmament Dao Sect was right about people; they actually have such a brave young man!"

As Yue Wuyai spoke, he raised his hand and waved it, sending a beam of light shooting towards Li Yunjing. "This is what you wanted. It contains all the verifiable information about the 'Tianluo Dao Sect'."

Li Yunjing reached out and took the light, which turned out to be a jade slip.

"Thank you for your help, senior!"

He didn't immediately examine the contents of the jade slip, but instead put it into his pocket. "I wonder if there's any other useful information you can provide, senior?"

Li Yunjing's meaning is very clear!

The information that everyone knows, apart from making it easier for Li Yunjing to integrate into the "Tianluo Sea Area", does not provide any substantial help. He needs more secretive intelligence!

Li Yunjing needs the real strength to severely damage the "Tianluo Dao Sect"!

"No! It's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that I really don't know!"

The sect leader of Wuya shook his head. "Remember this: the people of the 'Tianluo Dao Sect' have a huge influence in the nearby sea area. You must be careful in your actions."

"Senior, is there really not a single useful piece of information?"

Li Yunjing frowned slightly, his fingers gently stroking the rim of the teacup: "Senior, are you aware that in the East Sea, near the 'Great Ming Cultivation World,' my 'Shenxiao Dao Sect' has already led the 'East Sea Alliance' and the 'Tianluo Dao Sect' into war."

"Ugh……"

Yue Wuyai remained silent for a moment, then suddenly got up, walked to the bookshelf, and took down a seemingly ordinary book, "The Customs and Scenery of the East Sea".

He gathered a wisp of spiritual energy at his fingertips and gently traced it along the spine of the book.

With a "rip," a hidden compartment popped out of the book, revealing a blood-red jade slip.

"I don't know if this information will be of any use!"

Yue Wuyai handed the jade slip to Li Yunjing, his voice extremely low, "Three years ago, the 'Tianluo Dao Sect' secretly gathered seven array masters on 'Burial Bone Island' in the northwest of the 'Tianluo Sea.' I wonder what they're doing there. Maybe it'll be useful?"

"Bone Burial Island?"

Li Yunjing's pupils suddenly contracted!
"What's even stranger is that starting from the second year, 'Burial Island' was sealed off, and even the surrounding 500-mile sea area became a restricted zone!"

Yue Wuyai gave him a deep look and continued, "No cultivator or force is allowed to enter! Some of the 'Tianluo Dao Sect's' hostile forces have tried to cause trouble, but they never returned."

"So mysterious?"

Li Yunjing raised an eyebrow. Something was definitely amiss. What was the "Tianluo Dao Sect" doing there?
Li Yunjing curiously opened the jade slip, and almost instantly, dense dark red runes appeared on its surface.

Li Yunjing probed with his divine sense and immediately saw a horrifying scene.

The seven bone altars are arranged in the shape of the Big Dipper, and each altar locks a fourth-tier demon king.
