Chapter 848 - 345: Return to East Saint (Part 2)

Actually, he had always wanted to ask the Cangxuan Spirit Turtle about Ling Xiaobai.

After all, it seemed that this turtle vaguely knew what kind of spirit beast Bai Ling was.

However, since entering the Void Abyss, Chu Ning had very little opportunity for idle chatter.

And once out of the Void Abyss, the giant turtle and the Nascent Soul cultivator from Changkong Hall fell into a deep sleep after exchanging blows.

Naturally, Chu Ning hadn’t found a suitable opportunity.

It seems he can only wait for this turtle to wake up again; he just doesn’t know how long it will take for it to merge the Essence Soul and Primordial Spirit.

Meanwhile, Chu Ning began researching several other items.

First was the Profound Sky Mirror, which Chu Ning took out for a careful observation while there were no cultivator demon beasts on the Boundless Sea.

Indeed, as the giant turtle had said, this treasure was impossible for him to refine and control, and as for the divine techniques inscribed on it, naturally, he was unable to know.

Thus, Chu Ning shifted his focus to studying the newly acquired spell Azure Wave Vortex.

After a month, he comprehended it thoroughly, but due to the insufficient spiritual Qi of the Boundless Sea, Chu Ning was reluctant to use magical power to cultivate it.

During that month, Chu Ning studied talismans again.

After carefully organizing the storage bags of the few Nascent Soul cultivators, besides sorting many elixirs, artifact refining materials, and the like.

In Qiu Qijun’s storage bag, he unexpectedly found a top tier lower grade talisman within a jade box, and it was even a wind attribute attack talisman.

This brought great joy to Chu Ning, who owned a wind spirit root but had very few wind element spells.

At this time, he practiced two spells which were acquired during his cultivation at the Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands: Divine Wind Escape and the Signal Fire Technique.

These spells were good, but for the current Chu Ning, they were somewhat inadequate.

This wind attribute attack talisman was named Wind Fury Slash, an extraordinarily powerful wind attribute attack talisman.

Chu Ning only needed to decrypt and master the talisman-making technique to potentially form a talisman seed in the future and directly use true talisman techniques.

It’s equivalent to mastering a top-level wind technique.

Just like now with the Ice Shadow Sword Talisman, Chu Ning has activated it dozens of times, nearly reaching the stage of forming a talisman seed after a hundred activations.

He spent another month constantly analyzing, finally mastering the talisman-making technique of the top-tier jade talisman Wind Fury Slash.

In the following month, Chu Ning began researching the path of array restrictions.

Cultivators entering the Void Abyss had some research in array restrictions.

Though Chu Ning relied on Bai Ling’s innate divine techniques to pass through obstacles smoothly, in terms of understanding array restrictions, he was not necessarily superior to these Nascent Soul cultivators.

And perhaps fearing encountering more mystical and complex array restrictions within the Void Abyss.

The few cultivators had jade scrolls recording some methods of array formations and forbidden breaking.

Among them, some arrays or forbidden breaking techniques were comparable to the array heritage he had obtained from Di Yan in the Celestial Curtain Continent.

Only they weren’t as complete and comprehensive.

Chu Ning was quite interested in researching this path, comparing various teachings, deepening his understanding of array restrictions.

This way, the originally monotonous flight passed quickly under his focused study.

After four months of flying over the Boundless Sea, a land finally appeared in Chu Ning’s line of vision.

Although still a hundred miles away, it made Chu Ning’s eyes light up slightly.

"East Saint Continent, this should be the northernmost tip of the East Saint Continent.

The northern tip of East Saint Continent is vast, bordering the Boundless Sea, with major sects like Jinyu Dock, Central Northern Palace, and West Soul Bone Sect to the east, middle, and west respectively.

There seem to be several small sects, but I don’t know their names, nor do I know exactly whose sect’s influence I’m within."

Though Chu Ning emerged from the East Saint Continent, he wasn’t very familiar with the division of powers there.

He knew a bit about major powers, but not others as clearly.

At the time, he had just entered the cultivation realm, with a narrow vision.

Even though he saw some introductions on the cultivation powers in East Saint Continent from Cyan Creek Sect’s materials, it wasn’t very comprehensive.

Moreover, it had been over eighty years since he left Cyan Creek Sect, and though eighty years is long in the cultivation realm, the change in powers is still possible.

"Master, we’ll know once we get ashore."

Bai Ling transformed into a young girl, her eyes gleaming as she looked forward.

Chu Ning nodded slightly, "If it’s one of those three major sects, they all have Nascent Soul cultivators, and we need to be cautious."

As he spoke, Chu Ning used his divine sense to communicate with the Spirit Beast Bag.

"Elder Turtle, we are about to leave the Boundless Sea, arriving at East Saint Continent."

Divine sense was sent to the Spirit Beast Bag, but Chu Ning suddenly noticed something was wrong.

He quickly picked up the Spirit Beast Bag to look inside.

Seeing Chu Ning like this, Bai Ling also couldn’t help but curiously ask:

"Master, what’s wrong?"

Chu Ning did not reply, merely activating magical power and injecting it into the Spirit Beast Bag.

The Spirit Beast Bag was promptly opened, but it was already empty inside.

Where was the Cangxuan Spirit Turtle’s presence?

"Elder Turtle, he..."

"Left!" Chu Ning shook his head, placed down the Spirit Beast Bag with a hint of regret.

"I don’t even know when he left, not a trace was detected; the cultivation level of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Turtle is truly unfathomable."
