Chapter 1274 Infiltrating Blood Demon Island
The territory of the Shattered Star Sea is divided into two parts.
These are land and the sea.
All thirty-six caves are on land, and all seventy-two islands are in the sea.
Because these are scattered forces, and most of them are located in the Boundary Sea, it is called the Shattered Star Sea.
The Boundary Sea is the dividing line between the Eastern Immortal Sect and the Central Plains Heavenly Sect.
East of the Boundary Sea lies the Eastern Immortal Sect, and to the west lies the Central Plains Heavenly Sect.
The Shattered Star Sea is situated between two major powers, making it a lawless zone and a paradise for many evil cultivators.
After another month of travel, Xu Changshou finally found Blood Demon Island in the vast sea.
At first, he thought Blood Demon Island was small, a tiny island.
Upon arrival, they discovered that Blood Demon Island was no smaller than Donghua Muzhou.
The strength of Blood Demon Island far exceeded Xu Changshou's expectations. In addition to the three island lords, there were also more than a dozen Void Refinement cultivators.
What frustrated Xu Changshou the most was that he couldn't find the Blood Demon Elder on Blood Demon Island at all.
The Blood Demon Elder belongs to the gray forces and generally doesn't show his face openly, so finding him is not easy.
Left with no other choice, Xu Changshou adjusted his cultivation level to that of a Nascent Soul cultivator, and then entered Lin Yuan City to lie low.
Xu Changshou's hiding place was called Qianlong Teahouse. It was a place where all sorts of people came and went, making it a good place to gather information.
After more than a month of investigation, Xu Changshou finally discovered that a manor called Cuizhu Garden in the south of the city was a secret base of Blood Demon Island in Lin Yuan City, which recruited disciples all year round.
Xu Changshou transformed himself into a cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Integration Realm. At the same time, he used the Formless Talisman to disguise his bone age and spiritual root.
Finally, Xu Changshou put all the important items, such as the Azure Yellow Sword, the Thunder Scale Sword, and the identity token, into the jade talisman space, leaving only some spirit stones and miscellaneous items in his storage bag.
Having made all the necessary preparations, Xu Changshou arrived at the Green Bamboo Garden in the southern part of the city and knocked on the gate of the Green Bamboo Garden.
"Senior, may I ask who you are?"
After the door opened, an old man at the Nascent Soul stage came out.
Upon seeing that Xu Changshou was a Nascent Soul cultivator, their attitude immediately became respectful.
"I am Wang Hai, a rogue cultivator from Donghua Sacred State. I wish to join Blood Demon Island."
Donghua Sacred State is the largest, so Xu Changshou claimed to be a rogue cultivator from Donghua Sacred State, making him the least likely to be investigated.
"Please come with me!"
Without saying a word, the old man led Xu Changshou into the manor and into a grand hall.
"Please wait a moment, Elder Su will be here to see you shortly!"
The old man prepared tea for Xu Changshou and then left.
A short while later, an elderly man with a white beard walked in.
Xu Changshou glanced at the old man's cultivation level, which was early stage of Void Refinement, and hurriedly bowed, saying, "Junior Wang Hai greets senior."
"Ok!"
The old man nodded slightly, glanced at Xu Changshou's cultivation level, and said, "I am Su Shaoyi, you can just call me Elder Su."
"Greetings, Elder Su."
"Please introduce yourself."
"I am Wang Hai, from Donghua Sacred State. I am a rogue cultivator. I finally managed to get a spot to enter the Donghua Immortal Sect, but it was taken by someone else. So, in a fit of anger, I came to the Shattered Star Sea and, after many twists and turns, finally arrived at Blood Demon Island."
"You said you once received a spot as a seed disciple of the Donghua Immortal Sect?"
"Yes!"
Su Shaoyi became interested; those who could obtain a spot as a disciple of the Donghua Immortal Sect were all exceptional individuals.
Even if rejected by the Donghua Immortal Sect, he would still be a rare genius in other smaller forces.
Geniuses are welcome everywhere.
Su Shaoyi asked, "How old are you? What kind of spiritual root do you have?"
Xu Changshou said, "1,500 years old, triple body lightning spirit root."
"what!"
Su Shaoyi was shocked.
Fifteen hundred years old, with a lightning spiritual root—what does that even mean?
According to the rules of Blood Demon Island, any cultivator under the age of two thousand who has reached the Nascent Soul stage will be hailed as a genius.
Xu Changshou was only 1,500 years old at this time, yet his cultivation had reached the Great Perfection of the Integration Realm.
A cultivator with triploid constitution will definitely break through to the Void Refinement Realm.
Bringing Xu Changshou into the door is equivalent to recruiting a Void Refinement cultivator.
However, the prerequisite is that Xu Changshou's identity cannot be questionable.
If what he said is true, then he must be rejecting the Donghua Immortal Sect. The leader hates people from the Donghua Immortal Sect the most, which perfectly matches their criteria for recruiting disciples.
Thinking of this, Su Shaoyi's gaze towards Xu Changshou softened, and he smiled, "Wang Hai, I need to test your spiritual root and bone age, and I also need to search you. Only after everything is in order can I recommend you to Blood Demon Island. This is the rule of Blood Demon Island, and I hope you can understand."
"This disciple understands. Elder Su, please proceed with the test."
"Well, let's get started!"
Su Shaoyi took out her testing tool and began testing Xu Changshou.
The test results showed that Xu Changshou had a triploid lightning spirit root and was 1,500 years old, which perfectly matched what he said.
Finally, Su Shaoyi picked up Xu Changshou's storage bag, glanced at it symbolically, and said, "No problem, you are perfectly capable of joining Blood Demon Island."
Xu Changshou asked, "When can I join?"
Su Shaoyi thought for a moment and said, "You stay at Cuizhu Garden for now. After I report your situation to the Third Master and he agrees, I can take you to see the three masters."
Xu Changshou frowned upon hearing this and said, "Elder Su, I hope you can hurry up. I'm about to break through to the Void Refinement Realm. The reason I joined your Blood Demon Island is to find a safe place for seclusion as soon as possible. Otherwise, I have better options."
"Don't worry, it'll be quick!"
"That's good."
"Young friend Wang Hai, have some tea!"
"Thank you!"
"Elder Su, may I see our leader?"
"No, the one in charge of recruiting disciples is our third leader. Of course, if you're lucky, you might also get to meet the first leader."
"All right!"
Xu Changshou nodded silently, intending to join Blood Demon Island first. As long as he joined Blood Demon Island, he would meet the Blood Demon Elder sooner or later.
On this day, Su Shaoyi arranged for Xu Changshou to stay at Cuizhu Garden.
Time flew by, and three days later, the good news arrived.
"Wang Hai, the Third Boss has replied; he wants to see you in person!"
"it is good!"
"Come with me!"
Su Shaoyi led Xu Changshou out of Linyuan City and arrived at a small town called 'Miao Kiln'.
Even without releasing his divine sense, Xu Changshou could sense that there were quite a few cultivators at the Refinement of Void realm in this small town.
The small town that Su Shaoyi brought him to is likely an important base of Blood Demon Island.
Soon, Su Shaoyi led Xu Changshou into an underground manor, where Xu Changshou met the third leader of Blood Demon Island.
The third leader had a sharp beak and fangs, and a head full of yellow hair; he was clearly a demon cultivator.
"The third leader, that's Wang Hai."
"Wang Hai, why don't you quickly pay your respects to the Third Master?"
"Disciple Wang Hai greets the Third Master."
