“Mr. Yan, please come in. I was practicing in the secret room just now, so I didn’t notice the communication talisman.” Liu Ming said flatly.
“Elder Liu is polite. I heard from Nephew Zhong that you are back, so I came to visit.” The old man surnamed Yan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Liu Ming.
Now Liu Ming was the most important character in Savage Ghost Sect. The old man surnamed Yan wished that Liu Ming would stay in seclusion in the Savage Ghost Sect for thousands of years and never leave, but this was obviously impossible.
Naturally, Liu Ming had already seen through the thoughts of the old man surnamed Yan, but it was a pity that he had no intention of spending more time in the Sea Region.
“Please take a seat first.” Liu Ming pointed to the seat in the hall and said casually.
The old man surnamed Yan thanked him and sat down beside him.
“It’s been a few days since the end of the war, what’s the current situation in the Sea Region?” Liu Ming asked.
“I’m going to tell Elder Liu about this…” Hearing this, the old man surnamed Yan said hastily, then he began to report the recent matters to Liu Ming.
After the Sea Emperor Palace was wiped out, the Sea Region had undergone earth-shaking changes in less than 10 days.
First of all, the Golden Scale Clan, which once called themselves the “Sea Region Royal Family”, began to do some moves, regaining their original island power in the outskirts of the Sea Region. Several other major Sea Creature Clans also made moves one after another.
Although the original top 10 Sea Creature Clans in the Sea Region were suppressed and persecuted by the Sea Emperor Palace in the past hundred years, they still acc.u.mulated considerable strength, which should not be underestimated.
Of course, because of Liu Ming’s existence, no one was stupid enough to provoke the Yunchuan Continent’s human race.
Naturally, the major sects in the Yunchuan Continent were not idle. Taking advantage of this turmoil, each sect frequently dispatched their people to preemptively occupy several islands near the Yunchuan Continent.
Savage Ghost Sect, as the most powerful sect at present, occupied the 3 most resource-rich islands. Now Sect Master Huang Shi and several Spirit Masters had brought some Savage Ghost Sect disciples to station there. They were going to set up branches on it.
In addition, the Sea Creature Clan also took the initiative to send people to contact Yunchuan Alliance and send a large number of materials. They even offered to sign a non-aggression pact.
After hearing these things, Liu Ming nodded noncommittally. These situations were all within his expectations.
In this way, the Savage Ghost Sect should gradually stabilize and grow stronger. After decades of recuperation, coupled with the various resources he brought, it would be a matter of time before the sect prospers.
“Right, I almost forgot one thing.” Liu Ming suddenly remembered something. He interrupted the old man surnamed Yan, handed over a storage ring and said,
“These are some training resources in the Sea Emperor Palace that I have asked my spiritual pet to collect while I was fighting Siren King. Make good use of it.”
The old man surnamed Yan was taken aback when he heard the words. His Divine Thought probed into the storage ring, then he showed a look of ecstasy.
Although the quality of the various training resources in the storage ring was not as good as what Liu Ming gave last time, the quant.i.ty was much more. It was more suitable for the current situation of Savage Ghost Sect.
After all, most of Savage Ghost Sect’s current cultivators were at the Spirit Apostle Stage and Condensation Period.
With these things, in 20 years, he was sure to more than double the number of Spirit Masters in the Savage Ghost Sect.
“Elder Liu, don’t worry, I will use these resources rationally and live up to your high expectations.” The old man surnamed Yan a.s.sured while patting his chest.
“I naturally believe in Mr. Yan’s ability.”
Liu Ming smiled and nodded.
“By the way, I have one more thing to tell you. Right now the Sea Region has settled down and the crisis of the Yunchuan Continent has been resolved, I won’t stay here for too long. I will find a way to return to the Middle Sky Continent as soon as possible.”
“What, Elder Liu wants to go back…”
The old man surnamed Yan was shocked when he heard this. He stood up abruptly and wanted to say something, but when he met Liu Ming’s plain gaze, he couldn’t utter a word.
He had been worrying about this. But when Liu Ming really wanted to leave, he had no reason to keep Liu Ming.
“Brother Yan, don’t worry, I’m just reminding you that the Sea Region is too far away from the Middle Sky Continent. I haven’t found a way to go back yet, so I will stay in Savage Ghost Sect for a while. Before I leave, I will definitely ensure the prosperity of the Savage Ghost Sect.” Liu Ming then added.
“If that’s the case, that’s great. I will trouble Elder Liu on that.” The old man surnamed Yan heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly cupped his fist.
What should come would come. It was very lucky for the entire Savage Ghost Sect to get so much help from Liu Ming. If there were too many requests, Liu Ming would probably be upset instead.
“By the way, when we met last time, I felt that Mr. Yan’s flying silver zombie seemed to be a little out of control. Was I sensing it right?” Liu Ming smiled slightly, and he suddenly changed the subject.
“Elder Liu’s gaze is keen. That’s exactly what happens. The silver corpse has improved greatly in recent years. Although it is not out of control on usual, it is getting more and more difficult to control. I wonder if Elder Liu has a solution?” The old man surnamed Yan was a little surprised at first, but then he asked happily.
“Although I don’t practice the Corpse Refinement Faction’s techniques, I have read some related books in the Scriptures Pavilion of the Taiqing Sect. Among them is a mystic art called Mind Bind Lock. It can strengthen the control of the refined corpse. If you trust me, you can let me handle that flying silver zombie.” Liu Ming said slowly.
In order to refine the Celestial State demon corpse obtained in the Pegasus Gra.s.sland ancient ruins into a refined corpse, he read through countless books. Unfortunately, the demon corpse was taken away by Qing Ling. He still felt a little regretful when thinking about it.
“If this is true, I’ll leave it to Elder Liu.” The old man surnamed Yan was overjoyed. He handed over a palm-sized black gourd and a bone-white token.
Liu Ming took them. He glanced at the soul-recovering bag on his waist, then he shifted his gaze at the bone-white token and then the black gourd.
This gourd had a black appearance and a smooth touch. It seemed to be made of a kind of spiritual wood, but it also faintly exuded a cold feeling.
His Divine Thought penetrated into the gourd, and the silver flying corpse was sitting cross-legged in it, exhaling and breathing, as if it was cultivating on its own.
“This item was pa.s.sed down to me by my master. It is said that he got it by accident in an adventure. Because it has its own internal s.p.a.ce, it was refined and used as a refined corpse bag.” Seeing this, the old man surnamed Yan explained.
“This gourd has such an origin. I can’t recognize its material, but it seems to contain a trace of extremely pure yin qi. The reason why your flying silver zombie cultivation has progressed so fast should be on this gourd. “Liu Ming said upon hearing this.
“There is such a thing!”
The old man surnamed Yan was naturally surprised when he heard this.
“Mr. Yan, this item is useful to me. I wonder if you can give it to me? I can use some rare materials to upgrade your flying silver zombie to the intermediate stage of the Crystallization Period as compensation.” Liu Ming paused slightly and asked.
“Since this thing is useful to Elder Liu, just take it. It’s great to improve the silver corpse, but with its current strength, it’s a little difficult for me to control it. If its cultivation goes a step further, I may not be able to suppress it.” The old man surnamed Yan replied with a frown.
“Don’t worry, I will deal with the problem. You can pick it up at this time tomorrow.” Liu Ming said with a slight smile.
“If that’s the case, I will thank you in advance.” When the old man surnamed Yan saw Liu Ming’s confident expression, he couldn’t help but feel great expectations in his heart.
Flying silver zombie was so strong, he knew better than anyone else. If it could advance to the intermediate stage of the Crystallization Period, even a Crystallization Period later stage cultivator wouldn’t win against it.
The old man surnamed Yan briefly described the situation in Yunchuan Continent to Liu Ming, then he left.
Liu Ming closed his eyes and meditated for a while, then he stepped into the secret room.
With a flash of black light, Xie’er flew out from the soul-recovering bag and looked at the black gourd with shining eyes.
“You really like this gourd so much? Could it be that you recognize its material?” Liu Ming glanced at Xie’er and said so.
The reason why he asked the old man surnamed Yan for this black gourd was because Xie’er had just transmitted her voice into his mind.
“I don’t know, but this gourd has an aura that I like very much. I can feel that if I’m allowed to practice in it, within 20 years, my cultivation will reach Real Pellet State later Stage.” Xie’er said in a rather affirmative tone.
Liu Ming was taken aback. Xie’er has only advanced to the Real Pellet State intermediate stage for a few years, and she is sure to go further in 20 years?
However, based on his understanding of Xie’er’s character, he was not absolutely sure that Xie’er would never speak nonsense.
“Well, since this thing is useful to you, you can just stay in it and practice from now on.” Liu Ming calmed down and said lightly.
If Xie’er’s cultivation could go further, it would be of great benefit to him, so he would naturally not stop it.
“Thank you, master.” Xie’er had a happy smile on his face.
Liu Ming launched several symbols into the black gourd, then he grabbed and threw the flying silver zombie on the ground.
The flying silver zombie suddenly opened its eyes. When it saw Liu Ming, it looked terrified and was about to leave.
At this moment, a giant silver pincer stretched out from the side and pressed on the flying silver zombie’s body like lightning.
The flying silver zombie didn’t have the slightest power to resist. It was pressed to the ground forcibly, and a terrifying spiritual pressure locked on the silver zombie.
The flying silver zombie trembled. It looked at the giant silver scorpion standing beside in horror, not daring to move at all.
“Okay, Xie’er, just hold it like this.” Liu Ming ordered. He waved his hand, and a giant black bird corpse appeared on the ground. It was the Real Pellet State evil beast he killed in the abyss.
