Chapter 353: Chapter 37 - Eight Immortals Cross the Sea [Seeking Monthly Tickets!]_1

"Sigh."

Speaking of the theft of Ba Xia’s Double Rings, the Lord of Wuji Mountain Manor, Li Zhutian, let out a long sigh.

"This treasure was my most relied upon item as I roamed across the Nine States and the Four Seas, so I usually stored it in my personal magical storage tool and hardly separated it from my body."

Chu Liang had heard a few things about Ba Xia’s Double Rings.

The legend goes that this treasure was perfectly fused with the spirit of a dragonkin divine beast, Ba Xia, during creation. When the cultivator puts on these rings, their arms could gain tremendous strength. It’s a pity that heaven has no handles and earth has no rings.

It now ranks a hundred and third on the Human World Treasure List.

The reason it’s not among the top hundred is that aside from increasing physical strength, it carries no other abilities. Thus, it cannot be considered a top hundred divine artifact. However, to be ranked so close to the top hundred merely with the ability to increase strength, speaks volumes about the terrifying extent of power it adds.

Li Zhutian’s rampant reputation in his early years in the Immortal Cultivation World was indeed largely due to this pair of magic artifacts.

"However, no matter how careful one is in a daily life, it’s not always possible to carry the storage tool with you," He continued, "The magical storage artifact in which I store Ba Xia’s Double Rings is a jade ring that I even wear when bathing. The only time I take it off is... when I’m with my wife, because... well, it’s really not convenient."

At this point, he was somewhat embarrassed.

"So, during that brief period, my wife takes care of my storage ring and I put it back on immediately afterwards."

"Why not put the storage ring in another storage tool?" Yun Chaoxian suddenly asked, "That way, the ring wouldn’t be a bother?"

"But then, the other storage tool would be in the way." Li Fujian seriously explained, then contemplated, "What if we put the other storage tool in a storage tool too?"

"Stop embarrassing yourselves, both of you." Senior Brother Ren Hongdao said solemnly, "No matter how many layers, in the end, there will always be a storage tool left... If you ask me, you should just put it in your pocket and not use a storage tool."

Zhang Chen who was beside him, softly patted Ren Hongdao’s arm and whispered, "Brother Ren, it’s not your turn to speak."

Li Zhutian felt awkward, scratched his head and laughed, "During that time one naturally cannot... wear clothes..."

Listening to the conversation, Chu Liang had some thoughts.

Although the previous discussion seemed like an internal exchange of sick friends in the Heavenly Gang Sect, it indeed reflected a problem.

That was, even the most powerful storage tool always has moments when it is away from the body. Unless it’s some sort of divine artifact that can be fused with the Godly soul, and yet also has its own storage space, such as his own White Pagoda.

However, the White Pagoda can only accommodate treasures produced by itself.

To truly vanish without a trace when storing items, there are only two methods. The first is to cultivate the Immortal Law of Haina Mountain Collection, a law that can create a personal space of its own, making any items available at any time.

Even when stark naked, whatever you want, you can take it out with just a raise of your hand.

The second method is to create a world of your own. Powerhouses who are at the peak of the Sixth Realm or some at the Seventh Realm who are proficient in the Dao of Qiankun can do this. They are gods within their little world and can create a world of their own. Naturally, storing items is not a problem.

His wealth and resources will grow more and more in the future. How to safeguard them also becomes a big problem. There is no bank in this world. Li Zhutian’s case served as a reminder to him, and cultivating Haina Mountain Collection became a top priority.

Otherwise, if his wealth got stolen one day, he would be so sad that he couldn’t even cry.

After a minor interruption, Li Zhutian continued, "That night, I retired to bed with my thirty-second and thirty-ninth wives... The ring was kept in the drawer by my thirty-ninth wife. I didn’t expect her to say she needed to go to the restroom in the middle of the time, and then she left with the ring."

"After waiting for a long time without seeing her back, I discovered that she was nowhere to be seen in the entire manor. The newly hired florist of our manor disappeared along with her."

"Did the thirty-ninth wife elope with the florist?" Zhuge Guanxing of Misty Mountain Immortal asked, "Then why is it said to be Li Feiyu’s doing?"

"Because we later found this in the florist’s room." Li Zhutian took out an item to show everyone.

It turned out to be a jade talisman engraved with a double-winged fish.

"Li Feiyu often leaves this behind after each theft. I realized too late that he might have disguised himself to enter my manor, eloped with my wife, and came for the treasure!"

Li Zhutian lamented, "Who would have thought... My most beloved... the thirty-ninth woman would betray me for a thief! How can she do this to my deep affection?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Liang understood why his peak Sixth Realm cultivation had to leave the Heavenly Gang Sect. This kind of "deeply affectionate" disciple would probably not be accepted in any serious Immortal Sect.

Not to mention anything else, it would be impossible to arrange family members.

Li Fujian comforted, "Uncle, don’t be too sad. Maybe Aunt Thirty-nine was coerced."

"Sigh!" Li Zhutian concluded, "I know you all are eager for the trial. At this moment, you are not in the mood for a feast. I have prepared rooms for all of you. You can rest a bit and think about how to find Li Feiyu. After the trial is over, I will throw a grand banquet and invite you all to enjoy it!"

...

Immediately, everyone split into four groups and settled in Wuji Mountain Manor for discussion.

Ren Hongdao and Zhang Chen returned to their room and asked, "Brother Zhang, do you have any ideas?"

Zhang Chen had a scholarly and confident smile on his face. He nodded slightly and said, "If it’s finding objects, I’m not particularly good at it. But if it’s finding people, we Confucianists do have a few divine skills."

This was not an empty boast. Chu Liang had previously witnessed Song Qingyi’s Half-page Golden Book and Shang Shuwen’s Naming Spell, Confucian divine skills indeed specialized in finding people.

Saying this, he took out a white piece of paper and a golden brush, both carrying a glowing spirituality.

He then formed a phrase with his left-hand’s fingers and lightly wrote down a name on the paper.

"Li Feiyu."

With the last stroke, the name on the paper lit up with a faint glow.

Hum—

The paper vibrated and flickered continuously. It seemed to echo every sound that called this name under the heavens.

For a while.

A hazy scene appeared on the paper.

Minister Zhang observed intently for a while, and then said, "It should be Donghuai City. Li Feiyu is likely to be there. We should go and take a look."

Ren Hongdao said, "Good, let’s set off immediately!"

...

When Li Fujian and Zhuge Guanxing returned to their room, they appeared to be in deep thought. Li Fujian looked up and asked, "Brother Zhuge, do you have any solutions?"

Zhuge Guanxing slowly nodded his head, and then said, "Brother Li, don’t worry, let me perform a divination first."

As he spoke, he took out three black and golden copper coins. He held them in his right hand, made finger gestures with his left hand, and began to contemplate, visualizing the matter he was going to divine.

Snap, snap, snap.

The three copper coins fell onto the table, each showing a different side.

Upon seeing this, Zhuge Guanxing cracked a slight smile and said, "It is viable."

He then collected the copper coins and brought out a sand table. Inside the table was white sand that looked as precious as pearls, each bead seemed to be valuable. Beside the sand table was a spiritual wooden twig.

Zhuge Guanxing held the spiritual wood twig, pointed it at the sand table, and muttered softly, "Seek."

Having said that, he closed his eyes again. The next second, a golden light suddenly shone from his forehead, as if a divine eye had opened!

His arm began to twitch and move, drawing complex and mysterious patterns in the sand table.

Li Fujian watched from the side, his eyes filled with awe.

Among the many arts of immortal cultivation, divination is one of the most mysterious and has always been steeped in endless mystique.

And in the Immortal Cultivation World, those who are most proficient in divination are the Tianshu Pavilion and Misty Mountain Immortal Sect, excluding some secretive heritages.

The Tianshu Pavilion specializes in astrology and its divination technique based on the stars is considered unparalleled.

Misty Mountain Immortal Sect is eclectic in nature, inheriting the strengths of various techniques whether it be divining, divination of the six realms, stargazing, summoning gods, face reading, or determining the energy level... all techniques have been inherited.

The disciples of the sect usually choose to practice one of these according to their own interests and talents.

However, Zhuge Guanxing is different.

He knows everything and has mastered everything.

After a while, the divine eye on his forehead disappeared. He then opened his eyes, looked at the patterns on the sand table, and uttered two words: "Donghuai."

...

Tang Shi and Ji Lingyu returned to their room, both girls looked nervous.

"Sister Lingyu, do you have a solution?" Tang Shi looked up to ask.

"Hmm! I’ll try!" Ji Lingyu nodded vigorously, "Let’s go and take a look at the florist’s room."

At their request, the guards of Wuji Mountain Manor quickly took the two young girls to the room of the fleeing florist.

Standing in the courtyard, Ji Lingyu had a solemn expression.

She ran away from home and wasn’t like Huang Ling’er, who could fend for herself, so she had to rely on her friends to survive these days, and Tang Shi had helped her a lot.

Moreover, although she was the youngest sister in the family, she was still an older sister in front of Tang Shi, so she naturally wanted to take care of her.

Furthermore, she had a strange desire to win or lose.

Adding these three things together, she really wanted to help Tang Shi win this round.

She even wanted to win more than Tang Shi herself....

Next, she saw Ji Lingyu’s hands come together, pointing straight upward. She closed her eyes tightly and in an instant, a golden light began to flash.

When she opened her eyes again, beams of divine light radiated in every direction!

The power of the Ji family’s Xuanyuan Pupil greatly varied, and each different iris color corresponded to a different supernatural ability. The natural power corresponding to the golden eyes was the Thousand Mile Gaze.

After her cultivation, the power has further improved. Now, she can see not only distant objects, but also traces in the void that ordinary people can’t see.

In Ji Lingyu’s field of view, she saw countless mixed and intertwined colors, one of which was what she wanted to find. She followed that color and her gaze seemingly extended endlessly.

"He went to a city in Jiangnan... Let’s hurriedly follow him while the traces have not disappeared yet!"

...

When Yun Chaoxian and Chu Liang returned to their room, Yun Chaoxian also asked, "Brother Chu, do you have a solution?"

Chu Liang then spread his hands out: "I don’t have."

"Huh?" Yun Chaoxian scratched his head, "Then what should we do now?"

"Now..." Chu Liang stroked his chin, "I’ll go check with the steward first, to see if my Golden Fur Beast has been fed."
