Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill Chapter 1369 - 583: Mutation of No Return Island

Li Yunjing wisely chose not to compete with the Nascent Soul Realm Masters for resources, focusing instead on collecting the relics left by the fallen Golden Core Realm Cultivators.

Master Lei Ze kicked aside a half-buried Profound Iron Shield, and with a spear, lifted the corpse of a Golden Core Cultivator, tearing off a "Storage Ring" stacked with Jade Scrolls and talismans, creating a small mountain on the beach.

"This kid sure hid quite a few good things!"

He picked up a Jade Scroll, a flash of delight in his eyes, "It’s actually a secret Divine Technique of the ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’!"

Peak Master Alchemy Tripod sat cross-legged on a reef, forming seals with his hands to control the "Nine Apertures Pill Furnace," absorbing the Alchemy Materials floating on the sea into the furnace one by one.

"A three-thousand-year-old Deep Sea Ice Soul, and this Purple Veined Blood Ginseng..."

He caressed the bloodstained Furnace, a smile finally appearing on his pale face, "Although I lost a Magical Treasure this time, it’s not a total loss."

Water Moon Fairy’s sharp sword turned into a stream of light, precisely opening a treasure chest submerged at the sea’s bottom.

As the dazzling riches rose, she softly exclaimed, and her jade hands reached in to pull out a crystal clear jade bracelet.

The bracelet’s surface shimmered with a moonlight-like glow.

"This is the ’Moon Condensing Bracelet,’ rumored to enhance the power of Water Element Magic by thirty percent!"

She couldn’t bear to part with it, putting the bracelet on, her brow and eyes filled with joy.

...

While these prominent figures were scavenging, Li Yunjing wasn’t slow either, navigating through the wreckage of shattered warships, specifically targeting the Storage Magical Treasures of Golden Core Cultivators.

When he opened a bag covered in cracks, a jet-black Elixir Pill rolled out, its surface entwined with intricate Pill Patterns.

"This is... a Tier Three High Grade ’Body Tempering Pill’?"

His pupils constricted; this was a Top Grade Elixir capable of refining the Flesh Body, significantly benefiting even Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators.

Such a discovery made Li Yunjing reveal a smile.

Ji Shuhan and his wife worked in unison, one using magic to raise ocean waves, the other using a Flying Sword to pick out Magical Treasures submerged at the sea’s bottom.

"Look, my dear!"

Ji Shuhan suddenly exclaimed, a palm-sized golden Pagoda slowly rising from the sea, its body engraved with mysterious Runes, "This is the ’Demon Suppression Pagoda!’ It’s said to suppress Demon Fiends and perfectly complement our joint attack technique!"

Nine Netherworld Master searched among the island’s ruins, her Nether Ghost Claw suddenly shot out, retrieving a roll of tattered ancient scripture from beneath a collapsed wall.

"The ’Celestial Net’s Secret Scripture’!"

A glint of greed flashed in her eyes as she swiftly tucked the scripture into her embrace.

Everyone was busy until dawn, the beach piled high with all sorts of Treasures.

Feiyun Master observed, waved his sleeve to lay down a Barrier, and declared in a loud voice: "As agreed, the relics of Nascent Soul Realm belong to Nascent Soul Cultivators, while those of Golden Core Cultivators are distributed as needed."

Everyone nodded, beginning to tally their respective gains.

Li Yunjing looked at the amassed Storage Bags and Hundred Treasures Pouches in his arms. Although they didn’t contain precious Magical Treasures, their abundance was his gain.

He calculated the Spirit Stones and Elixirs inside, secretly delighted: "These resources are enough to last me decades."

With the division of the last relic, everyone looked rosy-cheeked, their exhaustion vanished.

Master Lei Ze shook the "Storage Ring" in his hand, laughing heartily: "Although Lu Tianluo escaped in this great battle, this gain is truly gratifying!"

"Indeed! Indeed!"

"Slaying four Nascent Soul Realm experts from ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’ and ’Four Seas Commerce Association’ is definitely worth celebrating!"

"This is a great victory!"

They exchanged smiles, their previous regrets and dissatisfaction dissolved by the sense of rich gain.

However, they didn’t notice a pair of crimson eyes in the depths of the island’s ruins, coldly observing all this through a crack...

"Everyone, we should not linger."

Feiyun Master’s expression suddenly turned serious, his gaze alertly surveying the surroundings: "With Lu Tianluo’s escape, there’s no guarantee the ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’ won’t send reinforcements. Should we be encircled, it might be difficult to retreat entirely."

"Fellow Daoist Feiyun speaks very true."

Peak Master Alchemy Tripod nodded slightly, struggling to stand, the "Nine Apertures Pill Furnace" in his hand still slightly warm: "Remaining on ’No Return Island’ carries too many uncertainties."

"Return to Shenxiao Island!"

Master Lei Ze rubbed the Storage Ring in his hand, his smile gradually fading: "With the array’s protection there, even if the ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’ pursues us, we’ll have the power to resist."

He turned to Li Yunjing, "Yunjing, go operate the ’Shenxiao Battleship’."

Li Yunjing’s heart warmed, and he clasped his hands in gratitude: "Yes!"

He carefully put away the Storage Bags in his arms and glanced at the faces of everyone, tired yet vigilant, aware that although they won the battle, they had also become mortal enemies with the ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’.

Previously, the Shenxiao Dao Sect and Celestial Net Dao Sect were adversaries, their animosity known but indirect.

Now that lives were lost, it naturally escalated to direct hostility, leaving no room for reconciliation.

Everyone quickly tidied up and flew towards the "Shenxiao Battleship" docked in the nearby sea.

Water Moon Fairy gently caressed the Moon Condensing Bracelet, a hint of concern in her eyes: "I just don’t know if the journey will be peaceful..."

Before she finished speaking, the sea surface suddenly shook violently, the already fragmented "No Return Island" completely crumbled, turning into massive collapsing stones rolling into the sea.

Only a broken temple remained, standing straight like a lighthouse on the ocean surface.

"What is happening?"

Everyone was astounded, perplexed by the phenomenon.

The dim red liquid seeped from the gray-black stone walls of the ruined temple, flowing like blood through the cracks.

The once damaged reliefs suddenly emitted a faint grinding sound, those twisted humanoid figures slowly turning their necks as if coming to life, the hollow eye sockets lighting up with a ghostly green light.
