Arrived at Guanhe Island

  "Alright, according to plan, you continue patrolling the border under the guise of inspection. Sneak to Guanhe Island and retrieve it before Hao'er discovers the Yu Jing Xuan Wang. With your scattered immortal strength, even Qing Luan would find it difficult to detect. I'm putting in a lot of effort into this, others are either too low in cultivation or can't be fully trusted, only you are the suitable candidate," said Cold Ling Tian.

  Xia Peng nodded, "Mm, okay, I'll set off now. The Star Fleet patrols the sea border every year. Now that I've received my military order and stayed on Da Yan Island for so long, no one will suspect anything."

  Xia Peng finished speaking and left the secret room after Ling Tian nodded in agreement.

  Leng Lingtian completely trusted Xia Peng, and he also knew that with Xia Peng's abilities, the scattered immortals could already control the flying treasures. Xia Peng's heavenly fate was originally a knife, now it had become his destined treasure, with exceptionally strong attacking power. Without using any ships, they directly flew from the air to Guanhe Island, unnoticed by gods or ghosts.

  Far out at sea, a long distance from the Great Yan Island, Leng Hua naturally did not know about the events here. However, he also had some mental preparation and knew that it was impossible to obtain the Jade Crystal Emperor and the Jade Crystal Imperial Liquid so easily.

  The atmosphere on the boat was getting increasingly tense, and the approaching tornado brought them immense pressure. Qing Luan's cultivation in Huabao Realm could only bring one person to safety, while the people on the boat, including the sailors and guard soldiers, were all ordinary cultivators of Quan Ti Realm. Only a few exceptional ones had reached Lian Shen Realm, and the three maid guards were only at the initial stage of Ning Xiang Realm. Facing such a tornado was a matter of life and death.

  Various disasters occur suddenly at sea without any prediction. When encountering such a tornado, it can only be said that they were too unlucky.

  The boat was already traveling at its fastest speed, and the black water snake's spirit had been fully unleashed. The entire hull of the ship had transformed into a massive black water snake, cutting through the wind and waves in the sea.

  But just like this, it was impossible to escape the tornado. Leng Xiao was concentrating on his cultivation when he was interrupted by Qing Luan.

  "Change direction?" Leng Hao furrowed his brow, he had heard Qing Luan's suggestion and was hesitant. This tornado had been chasing them all the way south, so to shake it off, they would have to change direction. But if they did that, who knows when they could reach Guan He Island? And this sea route was one they had explored before, it was relatively safe. If they changed course, they couldn't deviate too far, or else they might encounter something even more terrifying than the tornado. At that time, maybe even Qing Luan wouldn't be able to get Leng Hao out of there.

  In this way, the time wasted will be longer, and the half-month voyage may be extended to more than a month.

  Although he was not very willing in his heart, Leng Hao also knew that everyone on the ship was waiting for his command. He had Qing Luan's protection, and when it really came to danger, he could leave easily, but others would be miserable.

  Leng Hao is not a truly cruel and ruthless demon king, in his previous life, he only killed Leng Ling Tian and He Qing Ya, the rest of the people were not killed, after 500 years of cultivation, only those who actively provoked him were killed, and he did not take the initiative to kill anyone.

  Leng Hao finally nodded in agreement, and the fleet changed direction, turning southwest. The tornado was indeed heading south, so they stayed on the surface of the sea three thousand meters outside the route, waiting for the tornado to pass through.

  The tornado passed by quickly, without delaying too much time, but the tornado was always heading south, occupying the highway. Ling Hao and others didn't dare to change to another highway and could only patiently follow behind the tornado.

  The movement of the tornado was also erratic, its general direction was southward, but there were changes along the way, with varying speeds, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and it would occasionally sway from side to side or even retreat.

  Leng Hao and the others could only keep a safe distance from the tornado, then advance according to its movement. Fortunately, Qing Luan was scouting ahead, so they hadn't encountered any major mistakes.

  The voyage at sea took longer than expected, and after a month and three days, they finally arrived at Guanhe Island.

  Leng Hao looked at the tornado that was gradually dissipating near Guanhe Island, and he also knew what the reason was. It seemed that Yu Jing Xuan Wang was about to transform into Yu Jing Huang, which would cause such a huge fluctuation in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. No wonder the usually safe sea route had appeared with a tornado, and it was still moving south.

  The closer we get to Guanhe Island, the more turbulent the sea becomes. Tornadoes are just one of the many disasters that can occur here.

  Yu Jing Huang Ji Ye is the name given to Yu Jing Xuan Wang at the moment before he transformed into Yu Jing Huang.

  Yu Jing Xuan Wang, has already had a weak and small consciousness. Generally, only those top-level Yu Jing Shan-like super-large Yu Jing mines have the possibility of nurturing it out. The cultivation is in the Huabao boundary, if transformed into Yu Jing Huang, it would be considered breaking through to Sanxian. At this time, it would also leave the body of Yu Jing, transform into a human form, and possess complete consciousness and wisdom.

  Previously, it could only rely on the nourishment of the Jade Crystal Mine, but after transforming into a human form, it can directly absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to cultivate, and also has the special properties of Jade Crystal. The speed of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is hundreds or thousands of times that of ordinary humans, and the cultivation speed is extremely fast.

  Yu Jing Huang's body is also extremely hard and indestructible, with incredible combat strength.

  However, once reaching the Yu Jing Huang stage, even if a person with higher cultivation subdued him, they would be unable to let someone in the Tempering Body realm absorb it. This is already a Loose Immortal and does not belong within the Heaven's Material and Earth's Treasure anymore.

  Yu Jing Xuan Wang has not yet left Yu Jing's body and can still absorb. Of course, the most powerful is when transforming into Yu Jing Huang at the last moment, Yu Jing melts into **, preparing to condense into a human body. At that time, it is also Yu Jing Huang's extreme liquid, which can be absorbed. At this point, it has basically possessed all the effects of Yu Jing Huang.

  Jade Crystal Emperor's Elixir is just a fleeting moment, that's why it's called the ultimate treasure of heaven and earth. No matter how high one's cultivation is, finding Jade Crystal Xuanwang and Jade Crystal Huang are possible, but Jade Crystal Emperor's Elixir requires some opportunity to appear. Among 10,000 Jade Crystal Xuanwangs, it's hard to find one that can break through to Jade Crystal Huang, while Jade Crystal Emperor's Elixir is just a momentary thing.

  Leng Hao remembered that three months after the Empire's selection competition, a large jade crystal vein was discovered on Guanhe Island. According to the current situation of the rapid fluctuation of the heavenly and earthly spiritual energy, the Jade Crystal Xuanwang here may break through to the Jade Crystal Emperor in the near future. At that time, he must grasp the opportunity well.

  The entire Guanhe Island is desolate, and due to the rapid expansion of Dayan State, there was no time and energy to develop this small island. As a result, the island simply became part of Dayan State's territory, but no immigrants came to develop it.

  What was presented in front of him, were only vast mountain ranges and forests. The island welcomed him with only one troop of imperial guards, three hundred men, which was all the people on the island.

  Specific large jade crystal veins are unknown to Leng Hao, but with such intense spiritual energy fluctuations, it won't be difficult to find them after spending some time.

  The sea winds howled around Guanhe Island, and huge waves crashed onto the shore, but the soldiers stationed here were still quite good.

  "All members of the 2nd Platoon, 3rd Battalion, Haijiao Regiment, Ground Force, Star Fleet of the Great Yan Empire, pay respects to Your Highness."

  Neat and sonorous voice, resolute expression, motionless and upright body, all show that this is an elite troop.

  Leng Hao also knew that in the Starlight Fleet, the most formidable were naturally the naval warfare personnel of the fleet itself. In the land warfare team, there were four major divisions: the Starlight Division, the Royal Division, the Skybound Division, and the Seacorner Division. The entire Starlight Fleet was established by Cold Lingtian and Xia Peng with their own hands. Among them, the Starlight Division, which could be named after the stars, was naturally the most elite division in the land warfare team. The Royal Division, on the other hand, was inserted by the Council of Elders and was another force outside the royal fleet, with the support of the Council of Elders. However, its capabilities were still not as strong as those of the Starlight Division.

  Tianya and Haijiao Shituan, however, were still behind them. Among the four Shituan, Haijiao Shituan was considered the worst, yet even such a Shituan had soldiers who were this elite.

  Apart from the Royal Corps, the other three corps were all trained by Ling Tian and Xia Peng. At this moment, even Leng Hao had a slight sense of admiration in his heart. In his previous life, his cultivation was not bad, but in terms of training and commanding, he was far from reaching this level.

  The Council of Elders is supporting Leng Hao, and the Royal Academy can also be considered as Leng Hao's own people. However, Leng Ling Tian obviously won't send soldiers from the Royal Academy to garrison this Guanhe Island, and Leng Hao doesn't seem to care about it either.

  "Get up! Not bad, worthy of being an elite troop," said Leng Hao with a smile.

  "Your Highness, please come this way. This emergency construction that has taken more than a month is barely habitable, but I hope you can forgive the humble conditions," a dark-skinned big man stepped forward and said to Leng Hao.

  "For a few months, it's good to have a place to live," Leng Hao knew that this was a border area, and the transportation of materials was not smooth. Now the surrounding sea areas are clearly increasing in disaster frequency, and those luxury goods can't be transported here, which is normal.

  Leng Hao walked ahead, the big man was guiding on the side, and the beach also had a bluestone road paved, very flat, walking on it felt good.

  "Was this road also paved by you?"

  "Uh-huh, after the house was built, there was only enough wood here, and it couldn't be done any better. In my spare time from training, I would move bluestones down from the mountain to pave the road."

  "What's your name?"

  "Belonging to Wang Hu's team, his position is squad leader."

  "Are there other people on the island? Are there any more ferocious demons?"

  "No, we've already searched the entire island thirteen times, once every three months."

  Leng Hao looked at Wang Hu's meticulous expression and felt a slight admiration in his heart, apparently this small team had been here for several years.

  "Isn't it time for a change after all these years?"

  During the Spring Festival, other teams will take over, and we can go home for the New Year.

  Leng Hao nodded upon hearing this. Compared to those who spent the New Year's on the island in a cold and desolate manner, Wang Hu's small team was actually better off. Although they were on this dull little island all year round, at least during the New Year's holiday, they had time off and could reunite with their families.
