Chapter 2295: Chapter 2287: Mirage Sea Spirit Island

“It’s just that, on the battle platform, Huang Xiaolong was clearly using the Seven-Colored Divine Dragon Saint Realm, ranked only three thousand two hundred and eighty-something. Even if he transformed into the Ancient Divine Dragon Body, he shouldn’t possibly be Yang Rong’s match!” Jiang Tian suddenly said, “But his combat power suddenly soared, and with one move he utterly defeated Yang Rong. What the hell is going on?!”

Jiang Wuji also had a face full of shock and suspicion, pondering aloud, “Looks like there are still secrets on Huang Xiaolong that we don’t know about!”

…

After leaving the Jiang Family, Huang Xiaolong went to the place where the Chen Family’s slaves had been settled, then took Feng Tianyu and the Chen Family’s house slaves out of the Central Dynasty and headed toward the Vast Sea.

After leaving the Central Dynasty, on the road, Huang Xiaolong picked out the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Elixirs obtained from the Jiang Family Treasure Vault that could help with breakthroughs, and had those Chen Family house slaves and Feng Tianyu and the others swallow them for cultivation.

As for Feng Tianyu’s beloved female disciple Xue Qi, Huang Xiaolong had the four Holy Sect Guardians make a move and do their utmost to heal her injuries.

However, according to what the four Holy Sect Guardians said, Xue Qi’s condition was not optimistic at all. The Jiang Family people had struck extremely viciously, already injuring the very foundation of her Divine status; wanting to recover would be exceedingly difficult, unless there was Holy Medicine!

Or rather, unless a Saint Realm expert took action to treat her, there would be no way.

Of course, toward the four Holy Sect Guardians, Huang Xiaolong was not stingy. The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Elixirs and jade he had obtained from the Jiang Family Treasure Vault were left for the four Guardians to choose as they pleased, and at the same time he gave each Guardian one hundred billion in Holy Currency.

One hundred billion Holy Currency is an astronomical figure even to a Half-Saint Expert.

Each person receiving one hundred billion Holy Currency, along with quite a few Heaven and Earth Spiritual Elixirs and jade, the four Holy Sect Guardians naturally showered Huang Xiaolong with “extra care”; the way they looked at Huang Xiaolong had also changed a great deal.

Originally, the four had been ordered by Li Wen and the others to follow at Huang Xiaolong’s side and protect him, and there had inevitably been some thoughts in their hearts, since Huang Xiaolong was merely a little Dominator Realm junior. Now, with each of them holding one hundred billion Holy Currency, what thoughts could they still have? They even felt fortunate to be able to follow Huang Xiaolong out this time.

On the road toward the Vast Sea, Huang Xiaolong didn’t idle either; he swallowed the Sixth Grade Heavenly Earth Spirit Pill that Xu Jun, Li Yuhui and the others had “apologetically” sent to him earlier for cultivation, while simultaneously refining Yang Rong’s Enlightenment Saint Realm, Holy Veins, and Holy Body.

By the time twenty days later Huang Xiaolong and the others arrived at the Vast Sea, Huang Xiaolong had completely refined Yang Rong’s Enlightenment Saint Realm, Holy Veins, and Holy Body. Huang Xiaolong could clearly feel that after refining Yang Rong’s Enlightenment Saint Realm, Holy Veins, and Holy Body, his own Three Great Saint Forms, Three Great Holy Veins, and Holy Body had evolved quite a bit.

Although Huang Xiaolong didn’t know what his Three Great Saint Forms, Three Great Holy Veins, and Holy Body were currently ranked, they should already have risen into the top three thousand.

With the improvement of his Three Great Saint Forms, Three Great Holy Veins, and Holy Body, his cultivation speed increased by a considerable margin; and coupled with devouring Yang Rong, by the time he reached the Vast Sea, Huang Xiaolong had already broken through to the Dominator Tenth Stage Early Peak.

After arriving at the Vast Sea, Huang Xiaolong used a Token to contact the bandit leaders he had subdued back then, then headed north across the Vast Sea.

Four days later, Huang Xiaolong and the others arrived at a spiritual island in the northern Vast Sea.

This spiritual island wasn’t large, about the size of a small city, and was called Mirage Sea Spirit Island.

Mirage Sea Spirit Island was one of the outer islands of the Vast Sea. Previously, several small bandit factions had gathered here. Now, these bandits had already been subdued by Huang Xiaolong and integrated into a single faction.

When Huang Xiaolong and the others arrived at Mirage Sea Spirit Island, those bandit leaders, leading all the bandits, had long been respectfully awaiting Huang Xiaolong’s arrival.

“We kowtow before His Highness Saint Heir Huang Xiaolong!”

As Huang Xiaolong arrived, everyone simultaneously dropped to their knees and kowtowed in greeting.

Looking at the four to five thousand people kneeling and kowtowing before him, Huang Xiaolong nodded in satisfaction and told everyone to rise.

“Your Highness Saint Heir Huang Xiaolong, we have already prepared a banquet in Mirage Sea City.” Among the bandit leaders, a middle-aged burly man with a big face and thick brows stepped forward, speaking respectfully to Huang Xiaolong.

This middle-aged burly man was called Liu Zhi, and was the strongest and also the shrewdest among the bandit leaders. Huang Xiaolong had him temporarily serve as Commander over this group of bandits.

Huang Xiaolong nodded, then together with Feng Tianyu, the Holy Sect Guardians, and the Chen Family house slaves headed to Mirage Sea City.

This Mirage Sea City could not truly be called a city; it was extremely simple, and not large, only a bit bigger than an ordinary mansion within the Central Sacred Dynasty’s capital.

Mirage Sea City had already existed before Liu Zhi and the others subdued the various bandit forces on Mirage Sea Spirit Island. After Liu Zhi and the others subdued and unified Mirage Sea Spirit Island, over the past two years they pooled everyone’s strength and used the resources on Mirage Sea City, along with the resources Huang Xiaolong had left previously, to carry out a round of renovations on Mirage Sea City.

Due to the short time, and limited manpower, although Mirage Sea City had undergone renovations, those renovations were extremely limited.

After bringing Huang Xiaolong and the others into Mirage Sea City, Liu Zhi spoke to Huang Xiaolong, his face full of shame: “Your Highness Saint Heir Huang Xiaolong, this subordinate is truly ashamed. Mirage Sea City is still undergoing renovations, and due to a shortage of jade and Spirit Stone, the Spiritual Energy in Mirage Sea City isn’t that dense.”

Huang Xiaolong waved his hand and smiled, “It’s fine; everything has to be done step by step. I’m not that precious. I think this Mirage Sea City is already quite good.”

“Look, there are flowers, trees, mountains, water, spiritual beasts, Spirit Fruit; it basically has everything, nothing is lacking. In my opinion, many spiritual islands in the Vast Sea don’t even have any of these.”

Everyone laughed.

And indeed, many spiritual islands in the Vast Sea were far more desolate than this Mirage Sea Spirit Island before their eyes.

After entering Mirage Sea City, Huang Xiaolong, Feng Tianyu, and the four Holy Sect Guardians took up residence in the Mirage Sea City Mansion. Although this Mirage Sea City Mansion was far inferior to Ten Thousand Dragon Peak at the Holy Sect Headquarters where Huang Xiaolong lived, outwardly, Liu Zhi’s renovations could be considered quite decent; at the very least, it looked rather grand.

Sitting in the Great Hall of the Mirage Sea City Mansion, Huang Xiaolong asked Liu Zhi about Mirage Sea Spirit Island and the surrounding spiritual islands’ situation.

Liu Zhi reported on everything one by one.

When speaking of the surrounding spiritual islands, Liu Zhi mentioned an island called Sea God Island. This Sea God Island was the strongest among the surrounding islands; its strength was a hundred times that of Mirage Sea Spirit Island. At the same time, Liu Zhi also spoke of the worry in his heart.

Previously, because Mirage Sea Spirit Island had been chaotic, with several bandit groups constantly in conflict and battle, Sea God Island had not paid much attention to Mirage Sea Spirit Island. But now that Liu Zhi and the others had unified and subdued Mirage Sea Spirit Island, merged the various bandit factions, and begun renovating Mirage Sea Spirit Island, they had started to attract Sea God Island’s notice.

“According to Sea God Island’s usual practices, I fear that in some days they’ll send a Special Envoy over to begin recruitment.” Liu Zhi said, “If I don’t submit, Sea God Island will have someone directly kill me, then dispatch people from Sea God Island to come and take over Mirage Sea Spirit Island.”

“And if you submit?” Feng Tianyu asked.

Liu Zhi replied, “If we submit, then every hundred years Mirage Island will have to pay tribute, handing over ninety percent of Mirage Island’s income for that century as tribute!”

“Paying ninety percent tribute!” Feng Tianyu was greatly shocked. “How is that any different from outright robbery!”

Because that remaining ten percent, most likely would only barely be enough to maintain Mirage Sea Spirit Island’s ordinary daily expenses.
