After the fairy disappeared

Chapter 2587 He Lingchuan's Privileges
Xuan Du is a true immortal of this realm, and in the exceptionally rich spiritual energy of the Liuli Sea, he can act with impunity.

Not only did Jiuyou escape unscathed from the Glazed Sea he was protecting, but he also retrieved the body of the Hidden God Lord!
“We only exchanged a few blows.” He Lingchuan let out a soft breath. “After I captured the main body of the Hidden God Lord, I came straight back.”

Why did he dare to venture into the lion's den again, unafraid that Yuntai would lock him in the Lingyun Palace?

Because he holds the key:
Since the Panlong New Secret Realm and the Great Square Pot reconnected, He Lingchuan has gained a new privilege—

As the creator of the Panlong Secret Realm, he can return directly to the Panlong Secret Realm through the Divine Bone Necklace!
This privilege is regardless of distance or obstacles. As long as the Divine Bone Necklace can still connect with the Great Square Pot, even if there are cloud platforms or small worlds between him and the Panlong Secret Realm, the Great Square Pot can still bring him back immediately.

This also shows how profound the Great Dao that Dafanghu has mastered is, surpassing many other laws.

However, this was a side passage that Dafanghu had secretly opened for him in the law system. It could not be used frequently, at most once every six months, and it could only transport one person. Overloading was not allowed.

The Great Pot had already exploited loopholes in the laws for him; this loophole could not be expanded any further.

Therefore, when He Lingchuan infiltrated the Liuli Sea last time, although he saw Yin Shenjun, he couldn't make a move because Dong Rui, Aunt Zhu, and others were all in Doukou Garden, and he couldn't abandon his companions and return to the city on his own.

He Lingchuan felt that using the return-to-city secret technique on the plan to seize the Hidden God Lord was extremely worthwhile.

With the spoils in hand, his mission to Yanxia Bay was a complete success, and he had no intention of provoking Xuandu again.

The Earth Mother is indeed powerful, but Xuandu is the undisputed overlord of the sea, and Yanxia Bay is located by the sea, making it almost its home turf. For the Earth Mother and the Cangyan people to engage in a decisive battle with it here would be a very unwise move.

Moreover, the many immortals and demons in the Lingyun Palace will not sit idly by. If they give the Lingxu Saint Venerable a little more time, they can send down even more people.

In conclusion, although He Lingchuan also found the idea of ​​destroying Lingyun Palace very tempting, he understood the principle of knowing when to stop.

Aunt Zhu was still incredulous: "How could Xuandu be involved with the Heavenly Demon?"

"In the great war between immortals and demons three thousand years ago, there weren't many sea creatures involved." Immortal Mingke knew more about these ancient events than he did. "Apart from certain islands and shallow sea areas, the sea creatures had very little interaction with land creatures. The main battlefield of the Heavenly Demon invasion was on land, not in the sea. Therefore, there wasn't an irreconcilable hatred between the sea creatures and the Heavenly Demons. It didn't matter to the sea creatures who ruled the land, whether humans or the Heavenly Demons. So, the battle between the Heavenly Demons and the human world didn't actually involve most of the sea creatures."

The ocean and the land are naturally separated, so the exchange of energy between the two sides is not very close.

Aunt Zhu said, "That's right, the dragon race is a rare exception."

"The Dragon Clan will participate in the war with the utmost ferocity, firstly because of their close ties with the land, and secondly because the Black Dragon God is exceptionally resolute in opposing the Heavenly Demon. Other sea races don't need to do this and can live peacefully." Immortal Mingke gave an example, "For instance, the Hidden God Lord has absolutely no interest in the war between immortals and demons. If it weren't for its importance to the Spirit Void Saint Lord's divine descent plan, the Heavenly Demon wouldn't have bothered with it until now. For the past three thousand years, the Heavenly Demon has stirred up trouble in the mortal realm, but it has basically never affected the sea races."

"In fact, the grudges between sea creatures and land cultivators are more numerous and complex than those between heavenly demons."

"Huh?" Aunt Zhu scratched her head. "Why?"

"Over the past three thousand years, the tides of spiritual energy have risen and fallen several times, but the overall trend has been downward. Immortals, sects, and cultivators not only fought on land to obtain spiritual energy, but also ventured deep into lakes and seas to hunt aquatic creatures, stripping them of their demon cores, hides, and horns, either to refine elixirs or to create magical artifacts. For example, the Chaohu Yaksha clan, because its territory shrank and its leader died fighting with the dragons, lost the protection of powerful figures, and thus the Chaohu Yaksha clan was repeatedly besieged by nearby sects, eventually disappearing." Immortal Mingke paused, then continued, "Seventeen hundred years ago, when I emerged from seclusion, I passed through the underwater caves of the Thousand Duck Strait and saw hundreds of corpses lying underwater, with sharks, whales, and small fish scrambling for food. Those were all Thousand Duck sea creatures, their demon cores all extracted. After that, the strait was renamed and was no longer called Thousand Duck."

“According to the information I’ve read, fourteen hundred years ago, the Dongyun Sect, located on the southwest coast of the Endless Sea, was suddenly invaded by a large-scale sea race. The cause was the escalation of long-standing conflicts and frictions between the two sides in the near sea. Both of its coastal cities were flooded, and the sect itself suffered heavy casualties.” Ling Jinbao interjected, “But overall, due to natural limitations, the sea race did not launch many attacks and kill people on land.”

Therefore, the sea creatures have no good impression of immortals, sects, or land forces, so it's not surprising that they cooperate with the Heavenly Demons.

He Lingchuan recalled how he had called the Sea Emperor a Heavenly Demon Hound in the Liuli Sea, but the other party didn't take it seriously and just laughed at him as an "ignorant junior."

"These past few years, sea creatures have frequently harassed shipping routes in various countries. Hmm, no wonder." People originally thought it was due to the resurgence of spiritual energy, which led to the increased activity of sea creatures. It seems there's more to it than that.

As they were talking, Mother Earth passed by White Pine City.

The inhabitants of this great city were fast asleep, completely unaware that a colossal creature was silently passing beneath their feet.

Everyone sighed as they recalled what they had seen when they first entered the city.

Ling Jinbao added, "Now that Lingyun Palace has been exposed, the Heavenly Demons will probably abandon this city and experimental field. The matter of using the resources of an entire nation to support Baisong City will most likely not happen again."

"Those jobs that are easy, pay well, and close to home will probably be rare in the future." For the past ten years, the livelihood of the people of Baisong City has mainly been to provide services for Yanxia Bay. If the Heavenly Demon removes the experimental field, nine out of ten of their sources of income will be gone, and the people of Baisong City will have to find another way to make a living.

In today's world, it is very difficult for people in small countries to make a living.

“But they can reproduce now.” Dong Rui stretched. “If they knew the truth, I wonder if they would prefer their previous life or their future life.”

Mother Earth still had a long voyage ahead of her, so she went to sleep.

Fairy Wuyu and the others returned to Lingyun Palace and reported the battle within the Panlong Secret Realm, as well as the fact that Helutian's clone had been trapped.

It was Cang Yan and Jiu You again! The gods of Lingxu were shocked, and the Holy Venerable of Lingxu was furious, ordering them to give chase immediately.

So, half an hour after the Earth Mother left, a flock of bird demons arrived in the sky above the Hundred Pearl Islands, circling at low altitude for a long time, but they found no new clues.

The sea, which had finally calmed down, suddenly changed dramatically, with huge waves rising one after another. An hour later, the raging waves crashed onto the shore, turning into a tsunami.
