Ling Tian Sword God

Chapter 1108: Chapter 1107: Penglai Island Territory

Cuiyun Residence.

As Ling Chen entered the courtyard, a figure dressed in white had long been waiting in the pavilion, it was Shen Bingxin.

”Master.”

In front of Lin Wan, Ling Chen still addressed Shen Bingxin as Master. There was no choice, for now, he was still Shen Bingxin’s disciple publicly, and this title could not be avoided.

Although he had never conducted the apprenticeship ceremony with Shen Bingxin, presumably the latter had not considered him as a direct disciple, but rather as the disciple of the Red Sky Sword Saint.

”You’ve come.”

Seeing Ling Chen arrive, Shen Bingxin’s beautiful eyes slightly brightened.

”Has Elder Sister Lin already told you about the matter? Is the news reliable?”

Ling Chen replied.

”The information was sent back by disciples in the Penglai Island Territory, it should be reliable. However, I’m currently unable to leave, I’m afraid this time, you’ll need to go.”

Shen Bingxin nodded and said calmly.

The Poison within her was too severe, so she had spent almost all her time inside Lingyue Island, never venturing out because her residence was in an ice cellar. If she left the ice cellar for too long, the Poison would flare up.

Though this Cold Condensing Pearl was crucial for Shen Bingxin, she still could not leave Lingyue Island.

Ling Chen naturally would not refuse, firstly, he was Shen Bingxin’s direct disciple for now, and secondly, he wished to repay Shen Bingxin’s life-saving grace.

”However, there is only one Cold Condensing Pearl, and since it has appeared within a merchant guild in the Penglai Island Territory, it will inevitably attract attention. With your skills, gaining it might be a bit challenging.”

Saying this, she then flipped her hand to take out a ring, handing it to Ling Chen, ”Inside here, there are five million Spirit Nurturing Pills, which should be enough for bidding on the Cold Condensing Pearl.”

Ling Chen took the ring. If it were the past, he would have been astonished, thinking it was an astronomical number, but now he wouldn’t have such thoughts because he previously slew Hook-Nosed Elder, Ice and Fire Dual Swords, and other four Senior Half-Saints in the Tianyan Mountain Range. From them, Ling Chen gathered around four million Spirit Nurturing Pills in total, and if he sold other miscellaneous items, he could have about five million in total.

Spirit Nurturing Pills no longer greatly attracted the current Ling Chen, though they were widely circulated like currency throughout the Nine Provinces Land.

The Cold Condensing Pearl was extremely precious, but due to its special use, most people wouldn’t find much use for it; five million Spirit Nurturing Pills should be more than adequate unless an unexpected situation arises.

”For this journey, let Lin Wan accompany you. She has been to the Penglai Island Territory once, so she’s familiar with the place. On the road, you can look after each other, considering it as companionship.”

Shen Bingxin spoke up.

”Alright.”

Ling Chen initially intended to refuse—after all, it wasn’t his first solo journey—but reconsidering, he indeed needed a guide to lead the way, making things much simpler.

”When do you plan to depart?”

Shen Bingxin asked again.

”The Penglai Island Territory is tens of thousands of miles away from here. Traveling there will take a considerable amount of time. I will set off tomorrow morning.”

Ling Chen spoke without hesitation.

”There’s no need to worry too much about the travel.”

Shen Bingxin raised her hand, the ring on her middle finger glimmered, and a white jade-like dragon-shaped small boat appeared before the three of them.

”This item is called the Silver Moon Jade Dragon Boat, a Sacred Object of the flying type. It can travel thirty thousand miles a day, greatly saving you traveling time to the Penglai Island Territory.”

”Thank you, Master.”

Ling Chen’s eyes lit up. The Silver Moon Jade Dragon Boat was indeed a valuable item; with it, the journey to the Penglai Island Territory would only take several days. Otherwise, relying on Flight of the Sword alone would require at least half a month.

If everything went smoothly, this round trip wouldn’t even take half a month.

After handing the Silver Moon Jade Dragon Boat to Ling Chen, Shen Bingxin advised him on some matters to be cautious about, particularly regarding the Void Emperor’s royal decree.

”It’s getting late, rest early since you need to set off tomorrow.”

After speaking, Shen Bingxin’s form moved, vanishing from the spot.

”Great! I’ve always wanted to visit the Penglai Island Territory; finally, this is my opportunity!”

After Shen Bingxin left, a bright smile appeared on Lin Wan’s gentle face, her beautiful eyes gleamed with delightful longing, appearing somewhat jubilant.

”Is going to the Penglai Island Territory really worth such excitement?” Ling Chen asked, slightly surprised.

”The Penglai Wonderland, renowned in the world. Mirages, worlds beyond worlds.”

”You’ve never been to the Penglai Island Territory, so you wouldn’t know. I bet once you go there, you’ll fall in love with the place.”

Lin Wan patted her chest confidently.

”Oh? I’m looking forward to it.”

Ling Chen’s eyes glimmered slightly. Lin Wan probably wasn’t speaking without reason; the Penglai Island Territory likely had its unique charm. It was a chance to see and experience this mysterious place.

...

Concerning Hook-Nosed Elder and Capture God, they naturally got information first-hand about Ling Chen heading to the Penglai Island Territory.

Initially, they had planned to temporarily leave the vicinity of Lingyue Island, taking turns to guard it. After all, no one could predict when Ling Chen might come out; if he never comes out, they would be foolish to guard here eternally.

However, just at this crucial moment, a young man in blue brought the news they wanted.

Ling Chen, finally leaving Lingyue Island!

Hook-Nosed Elder, tired and weary from chasing after Ling Chen, suddenly became energized upon hearing the news, laughing heartily, ”Great! Without Lingyue Island’s protection, taking that kid’s life will be as easy as pie!”

”The Penglai Island Territory, that kid dared to go that far,” Capture God frowned but then turned his tone, smirking coldly, ”But this is good, ending him in a place like the Penglai Island Territory, Lingyue Island won’t even notice; it can be done without a trace.”

”By the way, isn’t your Huangfu Clan sending another Saint to ensure success?”

Capture God suddenly remembered something and asked.

”Rest assured, that person is already on their way. But now that the destination of the boy is confirmed, there’s no need for him to come here anymore.”

Hook-Nosed Elder waved his hand, a cold gleam suddenly appeared in his eyes, ”I will immediately send him a message to go directly to the Penglai Island Territory and lie in wait.”

”Mmm, that makes sense, this way it’s truly foolproof.”

Capture God felt assured; three Great Saints joining forces to hunt down a mere Sky Apex Realm youth—if they failed, they would lose all dignity. Besides, after last time’s failure, they had resolved to put all their effort into this time. They would ensure to take Ling Chen’s life without giving him any chance to turn around.
