Ye Yun meets his junior sister, Gu Anran, who has unexpectedly reached the True God Realm and passed through the Ancient Road to Heaven. He introduces her to his Dao companion, the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman, which causes Gu Anran some distress. Ye Yun reveals Gu Anran's past connection to the Black Ming Divine Spider, a matter the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman also recognizes. The three then depart the Ancient Road to Heaven, entering the vast Divine Land.

"Senior Brother, this Tenth Sea Region is so immense; we haven’t even left it after such a long flight..."

Three figures soared above the vast expanse of the azure sea. Gu Anran gazed at the unending ocean, her voice filled with awe as she spoke.

"In truth, the Tenth Sea Region isn't that large. Within the Divine Land, it's practically insignificant..."

Ye Yun replied with a gentle smile.

His little junior sister was experiencing the Divine Land for the very first time, her eyes wide with fascination.

A mere Tenth Sea Region was enough to deeply impress this young girl.

They continued their journey through the air.

Ye Yun maintained a steady pace, deliberately refraining from tearing through space to accelerate.

The reason behind this decision was to accommodate Gu Anran's pace.

Yet, after spending some time in the Divine Land, he hadn't observed any unusual signs from Gu Anran.

It appeared that the moment the young girl sensed the true form of the Black Ming Divine Spider had not yet arrived.

Ye Yun remained unhurried.

Throughout the span of a hundred thousand years, his little junior sister had endured countless trials, surviving until this day through sheer tenacity.

As her senior brother, dedicating a little more time to accompany her felt perfectly appropriate.

This companionship did not impede Ye Yun's own cultivation progress.

He possessed the ability to manage multiple tasks concurrently.

Consequently, over the past half-month, his cultivation base had seen a continuous and substantial increase.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, the seawater churned violently. A colossal creature emerged from the depths, its enormous, octopus-like tentacles lashing out towards the trio.

"Senior Brother, allow me to handle this sea monster!"

Gu Anran exclaimed with palpable excitement. She raised the Mirror of Chaos in her hand, and as a beam of light struck the approaching tentacle, it was instantly repelled.

"Heh heh..."

Witnessing this display, Ye Yun exchanged a knowing smile with the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman.

With both of them discreetly concealing their cultivation levels, the surrounding sea region had become increasingly agitated.

From time to time, formidable sea demon beasts would brazenly launch assaults from the ocean floor.

The primary target of these attacks was invariably Gu Anran.

After observing these encounters several times, Ye Yun began to discern the underlying cause.

Gu Anran was equipped with a pair of red Teleportation Boots.

This treasure, of God-level rarity, had ignited the covetous envy of the sea monsters.

However.

The sea monsters that dared to attack were by no means overwhelmingly powerful. With the aid of the Mirror of Chaos, the young junior sister could effortlessly fend them off.

Ye Yun chose not to intervene directly.

Gu Anran derived a sense of enjoyment from repelling these sea monsters, and Ye Yun was content to indulge her in this pursuit.

As long as his little junior sister found happiness in the experience.

At this very moment.

Deep within the confines of the Tenth Sea Region, nestled within an underwater grotto,.

Three sea monsters, now assuming human form, sat within the cave, their faces etched with gloom as they sighed.

"Alas, our fortune is truly dire. Despite numerous attempts, we have failed to seize the Teleportation Boots or the Ancient Mirror from that female cultivator!"

A male sea monster, characterized by its dark blue hue and bizarre physique, vocalized their shared frustration.

"The influence of our Absolute Water House within the Tenth Sea Region is merely adequate. However, this particular area is exceedingly remote, which severely hampers our ability to achieve a breakthrough..."

The second sea monster, an unsightly man with a peculiar streak of red hair adorning his head, grumbled with evident displeasure.

"What if we offered this intelligence to Skyreach Island in the Ninth Sea Region? We could propose they dispatch someone to capture that female cultivator!"

The third individual, adorned with blue scales, furrowed his brow as he voiced this suggestion.

"Are you suggesting madness? If Skyreach Island succeeds in capturing that female cultivator, how then would the Teleportation Boots and the Ancient Mirror ever find their way into our possession?"

The red-haired, unsightly man retorted with indignation.

"I have given this considerable thought. With our current level of strength, acquiring these two precious artifacts is beyond our capability. Furthermore, even if we somehow obtained them, we would be utterly incapable of retaining them. It would be far more prudent to sell this information to Skyreach Island, hoping for a generous reward of valuable pills!"

The man bearing blue scales articulated his reasoning with measured deliberation.

Within the secluded grotto.

The remaining two sea monsters remained in silent contemplation.

After a considerable pause.

Unable to conceive of a superior alternative, the duo reluctantly gave their assent.

There was simply no other viable option, given their insufficient strength.

Should they venture beyond their controlled sea territories, any opportunity for them to strike would vanish entirely.

Through the intricate Transference Array, the crucial intelligence was transmitted to Skyreach Island.

In a remarkably short span, equivalent to the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

At a specific location within the Absolute Water House, the Transference Array pulsed with light, and a contingent of over a dozen cultivators, all within the True God Realm, emerged.

"Greetings, esteemed fellow Daoists!"

Upon their arrival, the blue-scaled man immediately clasped his hands together, a welcoming smile gracing his lips.

The leader of the arrived group was a cultivator of the Seventh Tier True God Realm. His demeanor was decidedly cold and arrogant as he sternly inquired, "Where are the three individuals you spoke of at this precise moment?"

"They are located approximately three thousand miles to the west of our Absolute Water House!"

The blue-scaled man responded with utmost haste.

"If these two treasures prove to be as potent as you claim—then your Absolute Water House has rendered us a service of immense significance this time. Our Island Master will undoubtedly be exceedingly pleased and is certain to bestow upon you a generous recompense!"

The Tier Seven True God Realm expert stated with indifference.

"Thank you kindly!"

The blue-scaled man responded swiftly.

Following that.

He guided the True God Realm experts from Skyreach Island to a specific oceanic location.

Hovering above the water’s surface.

Gu Anran paused, observing the lack of further sea monster assaults, and pouted with a touch of disappointment.

"Senior Brother, why have the sea monsters ceased their attacks? I haven't had my fill of fun yet?"

"These sea monsters possess limited cultivation. Even if they emerged, they wouldn't be able to seize your treasures, so I suppose they've accepted their fate!"

Ye Yun let out a soft chuckle.

"Well, I suspect that's all there is to the sea monsters in the Tenth Sea Region. Perhaps the Ninth Sea Region will present more formidable opponents? Right, Senior Brother?"

Gu Anran inquired.

"More or less. The Tenth Sea Region hosts the weakest, while the First Sea Region boasts the strongest. The Daluo Region adjacent to the First Sea Region is even more powerful..."

Ye Yun smiled.

"I wonder when we shall arrive at the Daluo Region!"

Gu Anran voiced her yearning.

"Upon reaching the Ninth Sea Region, we shall locate a Teleportation Array and proceed directly via teleportation..."

Ye Yun stated.

It had been some time since his last visit to Skyreach Island, and as they passed by, he decided to make a brief stop with his junior sister for a few days.

Concurrently, Ye Yun intended to entrust the Five Emperors and his primary disciple, Ji Wushuang, along with others, to the care of Skyreach Island.

"Someone approaches..."

The Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman’s gaze shifted, penetrating the deep blue ocean to perceive a dozen figures.

"Quite a multitude!"

Ye Yun remarked with a casual smile.

From the ocean's depths, the assembled dozen True God Realm cultivators, accompanied by the three formidable sea monsters, had positioned themselves directly beneath them.

Whoosh!

The seawater churned violently as the dozen True God Realm cultivators burst forth from the depths, intercepting the trio’s progress.

"Are these not sea monsters?"

Gu Anran observed these cultivators, her expression tinged with surprise.

These individuals commanded substantial cultivation power.

The pinnacle cultivator reached the True God Realm Tier Seven, while the lowest was merely at the Third Level of the True God Realm.

In Gu Anran's estimation, this constituted a formidable contingent.

Moreover, she had never before engaged in combat with cultivators from the Divine Land. Despite possessing three God-level treasures, a slight unease began to surface.

"Halt your advance! Surrender your treasures, and we may grant you passage!"

The Skyreach Island cultivators encircled the three, with the leading Tier Seven True God Realm exponent bellowing aggressively.

"You are not natives of the Tenth Sea Region, are you?"

Ye Yun's gaze flickered as he calmly posed the question.

"Precisely. We hail from Skyreach Island in the Ninth Sea Region. If you possess any sense, surrender the treasures!"

The man proclaimed.

An indescribable arrogance was etched upon his countenance.

Skyreach Island, situated in the Ninth Sea Region, stood as the preeminent power.

Renowned for its might and vast number of experts, it commanded significant influence, ensuring that even other sea regions hesitated to provoke it.

"Skyreach Island?"

Ye Yun’s brow furrowed, a hint of coldness manifesting on his features.

Whoosh… With a wave of his hand, a tempestuous gale erupted.

The dozen True God Realm cultivators, along with the three sea monsters, were violently swept away by the powerful current.

The three sea monsters were instantly annihilated.

Among the Skyreach Island cultivators, only a single individual at the Third Level of the True God Realm survived.

"You dare lay hands upon the people of Skyreach Island?"

The sole remaining survivor, wiping a trickle of blood from his lips, shouted defiantly, his voice laced with fear.
