Chapter 156 Emptying the Yin Family's Treasury! The Yin Family is Enraged!
of course.
This is something Lin Chuan has to do himself.
Yuan Yao has only reached the Core Formation stage; it would be dangerous for her to go with him.
Before taking action, he needed to first establish the teleportation array on the inner sea side.
Lin Chuan took Yuan Yao and left the cave, arriving at the deserted island he had chosen on the sea map.
This island is only a few dozen miles in circumference, with no spiritual veins, no inhabitants, and is desolate and remote.
Lin Chuan opened up a cave deep underground and began setting up a teleportation array.
Six months later, the teleportation array was completed.
The cyan jade base corresponds perfectly to the teleportation array on Biling Island.
Lin Chuan took out a jade slip, recorded the coordinates of the teleportation array, and carefully kept it close to his body.
……
With everything ready, Lin Chuan left the deserted island and flew towards the direction of Jiyin Island.
……
Jiyin Island is located in the western part of the Chaotic Star Sea.
From a distance, it was a huge island shrouded in thick, dark clouds.
The dark clouds never dispersed, and faint sounds of ghosts wailing and howling could be heard emanating from them, exuding a sinister aura.
This is the Island of Extreme Yin, the territory of the infamous Ancestor of Extreme Yin.
This island is quite large, spanning a thousand miles, and is considered one of the largest among the many islands in the Chaotic Star Sea.
The island has a large number of mortals, but none of them have any sense of happiness. The island is ruthless and its mortals are treated as slaves. If they disobey even slightly, their souls will be extracted and refined, and they will never be able to be reborn.
As for the cultivators, they all belonged to the Extreme Yin Sect, and their lives and deaths were entirely in the hands of the Ancestor.
At the very center of Xuan Yin Mountain, atop the highest peak stands a colossal palace, entirely black.
The palace was built of a strange black stone and exuded a chilling aura; it was the residence of the Extreme Yin Ancestor—the Extreme Yin Demon Palace.
Lin Chuan hovered outside the island, concealing all his aura, his spirit-concealing cloak blending him into the surrounding environment.
It was nighttime.
He did not rush to take action, but waited quietly on a secluded reef outside the island.
More than an hour later, it was dawn.
A golden light appeared before my eyes.
Today's divination result: Very auspicious.
[The divination text reads: Today, you infiltrated the Island of Extreme Yin to plunder the Spiritual Eye Spring of the Ancestor of Extreme Yin. The Ancestor of Extreme Yin is not currently on the Island; you proceeded unimpeded and easily succeeded.]
"Heh, not here?"
Lin Chuan smiled.
Then don't blame him for emptying Ji Yin's coffers.
He flashed and flew towards the center of the Yin Island.
……
The island was heavily fortified, but these restrictions were ineffective against Lin Chuan.
His divine sense covered 350 miles, far exceeding anyone's imagination on the island. Those disciples of the Extreme Yin Sect, whose highest cultivation level was only late Core Formation, were like ants in his eyes.
He wore a cloak of concealment, suppressing his aura to the extreme, like a wisp of ghost, as he moved through the island.
A moment later, he arrived in front of the Extreme Yin Demon Palace.
The Demon Palace was shrouded in an extremely strong barrier, with black light flowing around it and exuding a chilling aura.
Even a Nascent Soul cultivator of the same level would need considerable time to break such a restriction. If it were broken slowly, it would inevitably be discovered, and the Extreme Yin Ancestor would sense the anomaly and return.
But Lin Chuan has a teleportation shuttle.
With a flash of silver light, he and the Void Shuttle passed through the barrier like a phantom!
This is what makes the Sky-Piercing Shuttle so terrifying—not only can it fly at extremely high speeds, but it can also penetrate most restrictive formations!
The restriction fluctuated slightly before returning to normal.
Lin Chuan has already entered the Demon Palace.
……
The interior of the Demon Palace was extremely spacious, with numerous halls and crisscrossing corridors.
Lin Chuan spread his divine sense and quickly located the position of the Spirit Eye Spring.
He hurried along the corridor and soon arrived at a secret room in a side hall.
Pushing open the palace door, a rich spiritual energy rushed towards you.
Inside the hall, two spiritual springs were gurgling.
One of them was relatively large, about two feet square, with clear spring water and a spiritual atmosphere.
The other one was smaller, only about a foot long, but it was equally rich in spiritual energy.
Without saying a word, Lin Chuan stepped forward and placed his hand on the larger spring.
The magical power surged, beginning to sever the connection between the spiritual spring and the earth's veins.
In the past, he would have needed the Blood Thread Dragon's help. But now that he is a Nascent Soul cultivator with abundant magical power, he can easily complete the task on his own.
A moment later, with a soft "click," the connection between the spiritual spring and the earth's veins was completely severed.
Lin Chuan took out the spatial jade tablet and put the spiritual spring into it.
Following the same method, they also acquired the smaller spring.
Two spiritual springs, obtained!
Next, Lin Chuan began to ransack the Demon Palace.
He took all the rare and precious medicinal herbs that Ji Yin had treasured—thousand-year-old ginseng, lingzhi mushroom, blood dragon saliva… filling dozens of jade boxes to the brim.
The materials for refining weapons were also all included—mysterious iron essence, silver essence, deep-sea cold copper... all rare and valuable items.
There were also some cultivation technique jade slips, which Lin Chuan accepted without hesitation.
All the wealth that the Yin Ancestor had accumulated over the years, except for what he carried with him, was taken away by Lin Chuan.
"That's about it."
Lin Chuan glanced at the palace he had looted and nodded in satisfaction.
Then, he activated the Void Shuttle, and with a flash of silver light, he passed through the Demon Palace's restrictions once again and disappeared into the vast sea.
……
three days later.
A streak of light flew from the sky and landed in front of the Extreme Yin Demon Palace.
It was none other than the Supreme Yin Ancestor.
His face was grim, clearly indicating that his trip had not gone smoothly. He pushed open the gates of the Demon Palace, paused, and frowned.
There are faint traces of spiritual energy remaining in the air... No!
He strode towards the side hall and pushed open the door—
He stood there, completely stunned!
The two springs of spiritual light have vanished!
The shelves that once held elixirs and materials were completely empty!
All the treasures he had kept for many years were gone!
"Who is it?!"
A roar shook the entire demon palace!
"Who did this?!"
The Yin Ancestor's beard and hair stood on end, his body was filled with surging Yin energy, and his eyes were blood red, making him look like a madman!
"If this old ancestor finds out, I will grind you to dust! I will tear your soul from your body and refine it into powder! You will never be reincarnated!"
A Core Formation disciple guarding the Demon Palace rushed over upon hearing the commotion. Upon seeing the scene inside the hall, he turned pale with fright and knelt down, begging for mercy.
"Ancestor...this disciple does not know..."
"waste!"
With a single palm strike, the disciple screamed and turned into a pile of minced meat.
……
Meanwhile, Lin Chuan was already hundreds of thousands of miles away.
……
Five days later, Lin Chuan returned to the deserted island and found Yuan Yao.
"Sister Yao, come on, I'll take you to a nice place."
He led Yuan Yao and her avatar Qu Hun into the underground cave and stepped into the teleportation array.
A flash of white light, and the three disappeared from the spot.
When it reappeared, it was already in a cave inside the mountain on Biling Island.
Lin Chuan is extremely cautious in his actions.
After teleporting, he raised his hand and sliced a crack in the teleportation array of the Biling Island cave.
One corner of the teleportation array broke, the runes were damaged, and the spiritual light dissipated.
In this way, even if the teleportation array on the other side of the inland sea is discovered, the other party will not be able to track it here through the teleportation array.
He could repair the rift when he wanted to use the teleportation array later. And before repairing it, he could also perform a divination to see if anyone was lurking on the other side of the teleportation array.
Absolutely foolproof.
"This...this is the island you were talking about?"
Yuan Yao stared in disbelief at the mountain of spirit stones piled up in the cave.
"Yes." Lin Chuan nodded with a smile. "And this is just the beginning. There's more to come."
Yuan Yao took a deep breath, her eyes filled with shock.
She finally understood what Lin Chuan meant by "enough to cultivate for a very, very long time".
……
Next, transform into Qu Hun to control the puppet and continue mining.
Since the avatar is a demonic core and its cultivation cannot be improved, this kind of physical labor is just right for it.
Lin Chuan then took out the array tools of the Spirit Binding Array from his storage bag.
This is the inheritance that Yuan Yao obtained from the storage bag of the young master of Qingyang Sect after he killed him. This formation can confine spiritual energy and prevent it from leaking out, making it most suitable for use around the Spirit Eye Spring.
Lin Chuan carefully set up the Spirit-Binding Array in the cave, placing the array plates and flags one by one.
Then, he took out the two Spirit Eye Springs and placed them in two quiet rooms respectively.
The spring water fell into the depression in the ground and quickly reconnected with the earth's veins, beginning to flow gently.
The rich spiritual energy was firmly locked within the quiet room by the Spirit Binding Array, without leaking out in the slightest.
"Yao-mei, this quiet room is yours."
Lin Chuan pointed to the quiet room where the spiritual spring, about a foot in size, was located.
"This is mine."
He walked toward the two-foot-wide spring.
"Cultivate diligently."
He turned around, looked at Yuan Yao, his eyes full of tenderness.
