Chen Ping walked towards the island unhurriedly. Chen Xintong's cautious behavior just now made him pay attention to this person.

Regardless of the reason for his sudden change of heart, Chen Xintong, who looks like a tough guy on the outside, is by no means a fool.

"That's what makes it interesting."

Chen Ping smiled softly, quickly put the matter aside and began to plan his next move.

Yunquan Island is one of the islands on the edge of the Chen family sea area.

Tengshan Island, the closest island to here, is the territory of the Meng family.

The Meng family established their clan much longer than the Chen family.

As early as more than a thousand years ago, the first generation of the Meng family had left the sect and went to other places to establish the family business.

During its heyday, the Meng family even produced a Yuandan realm monk.

During his five hundred years of life, the Meng family continued to expand, pushing the family's power to its peak.

Including the current Haichang Island, all were islands under the command of the Meng family.

However, the moon waxes and wanes, and after the death of the ancestor of Yuan Dan, the Meng family immediately suffered a strong backlash from other surrounding forces.

Several small forces joined forces to encroach on the Meng family's vast sea area.

At that time, the three remaining foundation-building monks of the Meng family could only retreat step by step, and finally managed to save a corner of their land at the cost of giving up most of their interests.

The Meng family practiced health and recuperation for hundreds of years, and gradually recovered some of their vitality.

There are four foundation-building monks in the current clan, and they are the second largest force in the nearby area after the Chen family.

Tengshan Island was originally just a desolate island, with a radius less than 30% of that of Yunquan Island.

Moreover, there is not even a trace of the first-order spiritual veins on the island, and the spiritual energy is extremely lacking.

Except for the occasional monk passing by for a rest, it has been deserted all year round.

However, a dramatic scene happened more than five years ago.

An earth-shattering tsunami occurred near Fujiyama Island, and its destructive power almost overturned the entire island.

After landslides and rock cracks, changes in ground veins, and calm seas, the beach of Fujiyama Island was actually covered with a layer of purple-red copper crystals.

Copper crystal is a first-level mineral that can be used to refine medium and low-grade magic weapons.

There is actually a copper crystal mine hidden in Tengshan Island!

The news quickly spread throughout the nearby waters, and the Chen family and Meng family, which were the closest, both sent monks to the island to investigate.

Finally, the prospector confirmed that this was a medium-sized copper crystal mine with a mined value of about 100,000 low-grade spiritual stones.

One hundred thousand spiritual stones is already a large amount for a small family power.

As a result, the two families fought over the copper crystal mine.

From the Qi-training monks at the beginning, to even the foundation-building masters later on, they were involved.

Originally, the Chen family had a slight upper hand, but the Meng family was unwilling to withdraw and secretly colluded with the Yu family, catching the Chen family by surprise.

Chen Ping's father and mother died in that battle at the sword of Meng Lingqiu, the foundation-building monk of the Meng family.

After this battle, the Chen family suffered heavy losses.

The clan leader recalled the surviving clan members and completely gave up the fight for Tengshan Island.

After all, it would take several years, more than ten years, and a lot of manpower to mine a vein worth 100,000 spirit stones. The net profit amortized over a year would be at most three or four thousand spirit stones.

It would be unwise to invest all the family's energy in fighting the Meng and Yu families for this little gain.

Calculating time, the copper concentrate on Fujiyama Island has been mined for several years.

According to information fed back by the Chen family’s internal affairs department, the Tengshan Island Mine has been recruiting miners.

Especially in the past year, the Meng family seems to want to end the mining of copper concentrate as soon as possible and has increased its manpower expansion.

There are many qi-training and casual cultivators in the surrounding area who have gone to Tengshan Island and are employed by the Meng family as miners to earn spiritual stones.

The purpose of Chen Ping's trip was Tengshan Island.

Finding a remote and uninhabited stone shore, Chen Ping jumped off the edge of the sea, quickly released the spirit boat, and then jumped into the air to the deck.

The formation core of this spiritual boat is at the stern, and fifteen spiritual stones need to be put into it each time it is used.

Chen Ping placed the spiritual stones one by one into the holes of the formation plate.

When the last piece was embedded in it, dozens of bright clouds of light erupted from the formation disk, and then a piece of information refined in the core of the formation was transmitted into his mind.

"The first-level formation Canglang Formation has a single voyage limit of one thousand miles..."

Chen Ping followed the operating instructions and separated a ray of spiritual consciousness into the core of the formation. Suddenly, a sense of clarity came to his heart. It was as if every inch of the spirit boat was under his nose, and it was there in an instant.

It is not difficult to control the spirit boat. There are formations that continuously provide energy, and the monks only need to control the general direction of navigation.

However, Chen Ping was unable to concentrate on practicing his skills while he was in charge of the boat.

The danger in the sea is much greater than on the island. If you are distracted for a moment, you may fall into a precarious situation.

Taking out a light blue jade slip and placing it on his forehead, Chen Ping quickly confirmed his current position.

This jade slip contains a detailed map of the sea area, which the original owner exchanged for fifty contribution points.

On the map, there are two eye-catching bloody red circles, which are the locations of Tengshan Island and Meng Family Main Island.

Obviously, Chen Ping has always been brooding over the sudden death of his parents, but due to his low strength, there is no hope of revenge for the time being.

"Since I have replaced your destiny, let me solve all your obsessions!"

Chen Ping murmured silently, adjusted the direction of the spirit boat, set sail with a thought, and headed straight for Tengshan Island.

On the way, Chen Ping counted the proceeds from killing the Xue Jiusan brothers.

The three storage bags are all seven-sided and of little value.

The total amount of spiritual stones is only more than 200 yuan, and then there are some bottles of spiritual elixirs and a sword technique called "War Tiger Fierce Sword Formation".

Chen Ping flipped through a few pages at random, then threw it directly into the storage bag with great interest.

This sword technique needs to be practiced by three people at the same time. After they are combined into one, they can display a fierce sword formation to fight against enemies who are stronger than themselves.

However, this swordsmanship is only at the middle level of the red grade. If it can be sold for five hundred spirit stones, it will be considered a high price.

The Qinglian Eighteen-Sword Sword Technique that Chen Ping practiced is dozens or hundreds of times stronger than this sword technique. Of course, it is impossible to practice it at the expense of the basics.

In Xue Jiu's storage bag, he found another golden knife, the style was similar to the two held by Xue Shiyi and Xue Shisan.

It is estimated that the three of them specially asked the weapon refiner to customize it in order to practice this combined attack technique.

The first second-grade low-grade thunder talisman seized was priced at one thousand spirit stones and could be used as an ordinary trump card.

Including some spiritual herbs, spiritual pills and miscellaneous items, I estimate that he made about 3,500 spiritual stones from this sale.

"Hey, this feather..."

Chen Ping pointed lightly, and a two-inch long fiery red feather floated out of the storage bag and landed in his hand.

To be precise, it is a piece of fluff, slender and soft, with a vague burning sensation of spontaneous combustion without wind.

Chen Ping thought for a while, then spent half of his power to condense a fireball and hit Huo Yu.

"呲呲"

Miraculously, the fireball did not ignite the feathers, but absorbed them completely, making the surface smoother and cleaner.

Lines of fiery red spiritual power flowed rapidly inside the spirit feather, as if filled with the aura of life.

Chen Ping's eyes narrowed, and he extracted a large amount of spiritual power to condense a fireball the size of a fist again.

"呲呲…"

The result is still the same as before, the fire plume is intact, and the temperature emitted is getting hotter.

"Is it immune to the fire attribute? The bloodline of this demonic beast is so powerful. A mere feather can be so magical!"

Chen Ping's eyes were burning, flashing with a hint of greed.

It is completely different from the human race who uses their spiritual roots to determine their qualifications. The demon race's most important thing is their bloodline level.

The strength of the bloodline determines the potential of a monster in cultivation, as well as its strength at the same level.

To the demon clan, bloodline is far more important than spiritual roots to monks.

In the world of cultivation, there is a list that has been handed down since the ancient times when heaven and earth were first divided.

The list is called "The Bloodline List of Ten Thousand Demons".

This list counts hundreds of millions of monster beasts, divided into seven levels based on their bloodline.

Mortal demon bloodline, earth demon bloodline, celestial demon bloodline, holy demon bloodline, true demon bloodline, ancestor bloodline and Hongmeng bloodline.

The Ten Thousand Demons Bloodline List is updated every thousand years. The Hongmeng Bloodline and the Ancestral Bloodline, which are ranked in the top two, have been missing for tens of millions of years.

And the true demon bloodline is so rare that it is almost legendary.

In the Tianyan Continent where Chen Ping lived in his previous life, several famous fifth-level demon masters were only of holy demon blood.

Demonic beasts with the bloodline of heavenly demons and earthly demons are relatively rare. Generally, the fourth-level demonic beasts equivalent to the human race's golden elixir realm have such extraordinary bloodline blessings.

Among the huge demon clan, 99% of the demon beasts, such as the "giant poisonous bees" raised by Xue Yun and the "spot-eating ants" raised by Xue Wen, are of the lowest level of mortal demon blood.

It is not uncommon for monsters to become saints with such low-level bloodlines, but they are all caused by unnatural opportunities and are an exception.

The reason why bloodline is so crucial also involves the innate magical powers of monsters.

Monsters with higher bloodline levels are more likely to understand their own unique innate magical powers, and there may be more than one.

A small group of outstanding top-level talents can even transcend large realms to eliminate opponents, making them extremely powerful.

"It could really be the fallen feathers of a demon bird with the blood of an earth demon or even a sky demon."

A trace of gloom flashed between Chen Ping's eyebrows. This feather was found from Xue Jiu's storage bag.

Thinking of what he said before he died, Chen Ping couldn't help but regret it.

If I had known earlier, I should have spared his life and tortured him severely.

"Xue Wen needs to resolve it as soon as possible."

Chen Ping thought about it for a while, then packed the fire feather in a jade box and put it in a storage bag.

He planned to take this fire feather of unknown origin back to Haichang Island and give it to Xue Yun for a look.

This woman has cultivated the Forbidden Demon Book and should have some means of identification.

Leaving a seven-square storage bag behind, Chen Ping threw the other two directly into the vast sea.

The storage bag is a space magic weapon and cannot be loaded with any items of the same attribute.

Otherwise, a hundred-square storage bag can hold thousands of five-square storage bags, which would disturb the laws of heaven and earth.

Besides, it was not convenient to carry several storage bags with him, so Chen Ping only kept one as a spare.

One day later, the hazy outline of an island came into view.

Fujiyama Island has arrived.

For safety reasons, Chen Ping deliberately made a large circle and sailed from the other end of the island.
Chapter completed!
