After being reincarnated, I cultivated immortality.

Once they were out of the sea, Chi Yi released Han Xiaobao as well, and dressed him in the black mermaid silk clothes that Chi Yi had chosen for him.

Chi Yi did want to choose a bright color, but Chi Yi, Ling Lili, and Bai Shu had bought him clothes of various colors before. He usually wore black and dark colors, so she chose this dirt-resistant color. It has to be said that good-looking people look good in anything.

Jin Haoyu stood at the bow of the ship, arms outstretched, facing the wind. He took a deep breath and exclaimed, "It feels like I've seen the light of day again."

It's not that the place where the Merfolk live is bad, but rather that the Merfolk are in a different environment than the one they have to adapt to from childhood, so there will always be things they are not used to.

Ling Lili chimed in, "Who says otherwise?" The others just smiled and remained silent.

Xi Lan could understand them; after all, she had also found it difficult to adapt when she first came to live on land.

The small boat sailed smoothly on the sea, and the sea breeze brought the damp, salty taste of the sea.

Blue skies, white clouds, and bright sunshine—it's incredibly pleasant.

However, as fate would have it, several dark clouds drifted over and gathered above the small boat.

Everyone on the ship felt strong fluctuations in the surrounding spiritual energy.

Chi Yi hurriedly said, "Quickly find a deserted island, I need to undergo my tribulation."

Xi Lan immediately replied, "Okay." She quickly walked to the helm and took control of the ship's direction.

She was very familiar with this area of ​​the sea and quickly found a deserted, lush island.

The dark cloud followed Chi Yi to an open space, where it continued to brew its lightning.

After a long wait, the tribulation of lightning descended, and a total of twenty-seven bolts of lightning struck Chi Yi in succession.

When the final strike was completed, the golden core in Chi Yi's dantian, riddled with cracks, shattered with a deafening roar, revealing a small figure sitting cross-legged inside, looking exactly like Chi Yi. This was the Nascent Soul, a cultivator's second life.

Chi Yi successfully advanced to the Nascent Soul stage. She sat cross-legged on the open ground, absorbing the sweet dew and spiritual rain falling from the sky to quickly recover from her injuries and consolidate her cultivation.

Hongye, having absorbed pure spiritual energy in the holy land and through a contractual relationship, has improved her cultivation and is now a third-tier demon beast.

Hongye was so happy he almost lost his bearings. If he had to rely on his own efforts to cultivate, he didn't know how long it would take to reach the third-tier demon beast level.

Hua Rongyi, Kong Bai, Ling Lili, Yun Fan, Bai Shu, Jin Haoyu, Lu Qiu, Han Xiaobao, and Xi Lan also rushed to Chi Yi's side immediately after the lightning tribulation stopped, absorbing the spiritual rain.

About two hours after the lightning tribulation, the spiritual rain stopped, and everyone opened their eyes.

Everyone looked at Chi Yi, who was the last to open her eyes. She had just entered the Nascent Soul stage and had no time to suppress her aura. The others felt the pressure instantly, and Han Xiaobao and Xi Lan, who were the weakest in cultivation, fell down.

Chi Yi immediately composed herself and quickly helped the two of them up.

"Xiao Bao, Xi Lan, are you alright?" Chi Yi asked with concern.

Han Xiaobao patted the dust off his bottom and said, "Master, don't worry, I'm fine."

Xi Lan smiled sweetly: "I'm fine too."

Hua Rongyi, Kong Bai, Ling Lili, Yun Fan, Bai Shu, Jin Haoyu, and Lu Qiu, who were already at the peak of the Golden Core stage, looked at Chi Yi with even more intense gazes.

The gap between the peak of the Golden Core stage and the Nascent Soul stage made them even more eager to cultivate and improve their strength.

Everyone returned to the ship.

Chi Yi spoke up, "Now that the two years are almost up, are you planning to return to your sect?"
