Another month later, Chen Lin arrived at the beach.
After traveling and exploring for a period of time, he found that the Qishen Sect was gaining momentum. Not only in the original Korean region, but also in the surrounding Chu, Yan, Cheqi and other countries, there were followers of the Qishen Sect.
There were endless disputes and wars everywhere.
In such an environment, it is impossible to find a safe place to practice, and you may be caught in a vortex of trouble at any time.
It is impossible to rely on some large-scale force or practice in peace in a gathering place for scattered cultivators. The Qishen Cult is omnipresent, and the war has led to an increase in the number of evil cultivators. There are dangers everywhere.
In just one month, he encountered several ambushes.
There was even a time when he encountered an evil cultivator who had reached the great perfection of Qi training. Fortunately, he had been using the breath-concealing technique to conceal his cultivation level at the middle stage of Qi training, and he caught the enemy off guard. He then used the body training technique to fight in close combat and killed the opponent.
So after careful consideration, he finally decided to come to Wuding Sea.
There is a large sect here that rents out islands. He wants to see if he can find a remote island to practice on.
If there is no peace here either, he will simply bypass these chaotic countries by sea and head to the country south of the Broken Dreams Mountains.
Standing on the beach, Chen Lin felt the sea breeze from another world and admired the scenery on the sea.
But I felt helpless in my heart.
He just wanted a stable environment for cultivation, but such a small wish could never be fulfilled.
You don't think about others, but others think about you.
No matter how careful you are, you will always run into trouble inadvertently. Such a world of cultivation is really speechless.
No matter how emotional he was, life had to go on. Chen Lin stopped a fishing boat, asked for the direction, and then flew above the sea.
There are three large sects along this entire coastline, each of which controls a large area of offshore waters.
Facing the coast of Chu State is Xuanyin Sect, which has two Jindan in it, and one of them is in the late Jindan stage, extremely powerful. The sect is located in Xuanyin Island, which is said to be very large, and the entire island is a top-grade spiritual vein.
However, because of the incident in Heishui Lake, Chen Lin naturally could not go to the Xuanyin Sect's sphere of influence, as that would be tantamount to walking into a trap.
The sea area facing Cheqi Country is somewhat special, occupied by a special race called the Purple Light Clan. They are very mysterious and exclusive, and most monks are unwilling to go there to hunt sea beasts.
The sea area where he is located belongs to the Sea King Sect.
The Sea King Sect is also a large sect with two Jindan masters in it. Its strength is comparable to that of the Xuanyin Sect. However, unlike the Xuanyin Sect, the core disciples of the Sea King Sect all specialize in water-attributed skills, almost never go ashore, and have little interaction with the various forces on the mainland.
Chen Lin thought about the situation here in his mind and flew all the way to the nearest island.
He found that it was quite lively here and a simple small market had actually been formed.
There were cultivators constantly landing on the island, most of them were Qi-cultivating cultivators, but occasionally there would also be foundation-building cultivators appearing.
Chen Lin's appearance at the moment was that of an ordinary and honest young man, the kind that would be forgotten as soon as you turned your head. His cultivation level was also concealed as being in the middle stage of Qi training. He wore a tattered robe and looked poor.
"Fellow Daoist, you want to go hunt monsters, how about forming a team together?"
As soon as he landed, three cultivators in the middle stage of Qi training came up to him, two men and one woman, and asked him to form a team.
Chen Lin was stunned for a moment, then politely declined, "I have other things to do, and I have no plans to go into the sea for the time being."
Seeing this, the three of them did not continue to persuade him and went to find other people.
Then, two more groups of people came up to us, both wanting to form a team.
After Chen Lin refused, he felt that he was quite popular. He laughed at himself and started to stroll on the road.
This is a transit island, with people constantly coming and going. Suddenly, Chen Lin looked at a woman setting up a stall in the distance in surprise, with a strange look on his face.
This woman turned out to be Xu Ruolan, whom he had met twice in Kaiyuan City!
I didn't expect that the other party also ran out of Kaiyuan City. It was incredible to meet him in such a distant place.
Chen Lin immediately withdrew his gaze and had no intention of going forward to acknowledge him.
With his current changes, it is impossible for the other party to recognize him. Moreover, ever since the other party identified his identity by smell in Kaiyuan City, he would wear a different sachet every time he changed his identity to make up for this loophole.
Sure enough, he deliberately walked past the other party's stall, but the other party did not react.
It was just a small episode, and Chen Lin no longer paid attention to it. After asking around, he came to a tall building.
This is the reception desk of the Poseidon Clan on the island.
Although the Sea King Sect's monks rarely come into contact with the mainland's forces, they are unable to stop the land-based monks from hunting monsters in the sea.
The resources on the sea are rich and cannot be monopolized by just one or two sects. If they really do so, they will be beaten up by the sects on land.
No matter whether it is the Sea King Sect, the Xuanyin Sect or the Purple Light Clan, they only guard the core location where their bases are located. Other sea areas are free and open, and the jurisdiction is only divided in name.
"Fellow Daoist, do you want to rent an island?"
When the person in charge heard the purpose of Chen Lin's visit, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Island leasing is a huge source of income for the Neptune Sect. The main purpose of setting up a reception desk on a coastal island is to receive monks who rent an island. He will receive a commission for each island leased out.
However, when the manager found out that Chen Lin was in the middle stage of Qi training, his attitude suddenly became much colder.
"Here is the island distribution map. All the red dots have been rented out. Take a look at it yourself!"
A cultivator in the middle stage of Qi training certainly couldn't afford to rent those expensive and high-quality islands. There wasn't much profit to be made, so the manager threw a sea chart at him and ignored him.
Chen Lin didn't care and picked up the nautical chart to look at it slowly.
There are many islands densely marked on the map, each with a number sequence, but more than half of them are marked with red dots.
Especially near the headquarters of the Poseidon Clan, there are almost no vacant islands on the islands surrounding the Poseidon Island. The closer to the outer edge, the more vacant islands there are.
"Here's the brochure. If you really want to rent it, take a look at the conditions and prices first."
Seeing that Chen Lin was looking at it seriously and seemed to really want to rent it, the manager took out another booklet and placed it in front of Chen Lin.
Chen Lin nodded, thanked him, and began to read the book.
According to the introduction in the book, all leased islands are divided into five levels, and the treatment varies according to the level.
Those of higher levels not only have various formations arranged on them, but are also protected by the Sea King Sect. If they encounter danger, they can use the formations to send messages to the Sea King Sect for help.
The sect will also send people to patrol the surrounding waters regularly, and if any powerful monsters invade, they will be killed.
Those of lower levels do not receive such treatment, and their geographical locations are mostly on the periphery. The sect is only responsible for collecting spirit stones and does not care about anything else.
Of course, the price is also much cheaper.
The book records the conditions of each vacant island and the rental price.
Chen Lin grinned after reading it. Even the cheapest level five island would require two high-quality spirit stones every year!
This price is much more expensive than the cave in Danding City.
But on second thought, there is no comparison between the two.
The island is large, and you can grow some spiritual crops or raise spiritual beasts, etc., which can increase some income, and multiple people can rent it together. The Sea King Sect does not restrict this, so you can do business on it.
Even some large islands can accommodate a small family of immortal cultivators.
The disadvantage is that level 4 and 5 islands are not protected by the Neptune Clan, so they are at their own risk.
But for islands above level three, the price rises sharply because of the security provided by the Sea King Sect. Chen Lin was terrified and felt a chill on his neck.
This is a bit too expensive!
