The golden-robed elder and the young man in green reverted to their true forms, transforming into giant golden mermaids whose bodies were covered in numerous golden scales. They were able to assume human form primarily because their parents had already transformed before giving birth to them. Once they reached a certain cultivation level, they could transform into human form without needing to consume spirit pills like transformation or enlightenment pills. This was a continuous, natural process for them.
Wang Changsheng retrieved two storage rings from the corpses. As his divine sense swept over them, he frowned. There were a total of five mid-grade Spirit-Connecting Treasures, including a defensive item. The rings also contained demon beast materials, sea maps, spirit medicines, and other valuable items, making it a considerable haul.
Wang Changsheng performed a hand seal, and the blue water curtain dissipated. Immortal Xuanyue used her twelve flying swords to surround the red-dressed woman, sending out wave after wave of fierce blue sword qi that aggressively struck at her. The red-dressed woman held a red-glowing banner. With a gentle wave, countless crimson flames surged forth, blocking the incoming blue sword qi amidst continuous roaring sounds.
Immortal Xuanyue was filled with disbelief upon seeing how quickly Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan had dealt with their enemies. Her expression darkened, and she performed a hand seal. The twelve blue flying swords glowed intensely, revolving rapidly around the red-dressed woman and emitting piercing sword hums. Dense blue sword qi surged out, while a massive vortex appeared on the sea surface, spinning rapidly. The faster the twelve blue flying swords spun, the larger the vortex became, generating a powerful suction force.
The dense blue sword qi continuously struck the red-dressed woman, leaving her body riddled with wounds. She immediately transformed into a giant red dolphin, its body marked with multiple terrifying bloodstains. Immortal Xuanyue changed her sword art. A colossal sword light shot out from the huge vortex, soaring into the sky and pulverizing the red dolphin, sending countless blood drops splashing.
Hundreds of miles away, a crimson light flared in the void, revealing the figure of the red-dressed woman. Her face was pale, and her eyes were filled with terror. She was no match for Immortal Xuanyue, and her companions had already been killed. Staying here would only lead to her death; of the Thirty-Six Stratagems, fleeing was the best.
Having realized this, innumerable crimson runes appeared on the red-dressed woman's body, and a surge of crimson flames erupted, protecting her entire body. Just then, a man's thunderous roar, reverberating through heaven and earth, rang out, echoing endlessly within a ten-thousand-mile radius. Numerous low-level demon beasts floated to the surface of the sea, lifeless and without any visible wounds. The red-dressed woman's delicate brows furrowed tightly, and her body trembled slightly.
Twelve blue arcs of light flew in from the distance, instantly appearing before her. They were none other than the twelve blue-glowing flying swords. The red-dressed woman's beautiful face changed drastically. She reverted to her true form, transforming into a giant red dolphin. A surge of crimson flames erupted from the red dolphin's right fin, meeting the incoming swords.
One blue flying sword collided with the red dolphin's right fin, producing a dull clang. However, another blue flying sword quickly shot over; the two merged and carved a small bloodstain on the dolphin. A third blue flying sword, a fourth, a fifth... As the number of blue flying swords increased, the red dolphin's body accumulated more and more wounds. Once all twelve blue flying swords merged, they transformed into a colossal sky-piercing sword shimmering with blue light, slicing the red dolphin in half.
A red light shot out, splitting into ten, each flying in a different direction at high speed. The sea surface churned violently, and a powerful gravitational force appeared out of nowhere. The ten red lights slowed down, revealing themselves to be ten miniature red dolphins. A blue radiance descended from the sky, enveloping all the miniature dolphins and drawing them into a blue jade bottle. Immortal Xuanyue flipped her right hand, and the blue jade bottle vanished. She took the red-dressed woman's storage ring and collected her corpse.
"Fellow Daoist Wang, thank you," she said. "If not for your help, she almost would have escaped." Immortal Xuanyue's tone became much more polite. After witnessing the powerful strength of Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan, she shed her previous disdain.
"It was merely a small effort, Immortal Yang," Wang Changsheng replied with a slight smile. "There's no need to be so polite."
Immortal Xuanyue hesitated slightly before saying, "Fellow Daoist Wang, could you give me some essence blood and beast hide from the Golden Thunder Whale? I'll trade something for it." Since Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan had successively killed two Body Integration stage cultivators of different races, the Golden Thunder Whale's corpse naturally belonged to Wang Changsheng.
Immortal Xuanyue took out an exquisite blue jade box and handed it to Wang Changsheng. Wang Changsheng opened the jade box to find a blood-red jade stone inside, emitting a foul, fishy stench.
"Yinhui Blood Jade!" Wang Changsheng carefully examined it and recognized the material. Yinhui Blood Jade was a seventh-tier material, suitable for refining blood-path treasures and very effective at defiling enemy artifacts. The Blood Toad Gourd was still a low-grade Spirit-Connecting Treasure. With this piece of Yinhui Blood Jade and by collecting more Yinhui materials, he should be able to upgrade the Blood Toad Gourd to a mid-grade Spirit-Connecting Treasure.
Wang Changsheng considered it briefly and agreed. He took out the Golden Thunder Whale's corpse and gave Immortal Xuanyue a bottle of essence blood and a piece of beast hide.
"Immortal Yang, did you come specifically for the Golden Thunder Whale?" Wang Ruyan asked curiously.
Immortal Xuanyue nodded and said, "Someone reported to me that they found traces of a seventh-tier Golden Thunder Whale. I rushed over immediately, but I didn't expect to still be a step late." She continued, "There are many cultivators of different races active here. If there's nothing else, Fellow Daoist Wang and Madam Wang, you should leave this place. I have other matters to attend to, so I won't stay longer. Farewell."
Having said that, Immortal Xuanyue transformed into a streak of blue light and flew away along the path she came. She quickly became a black speck and vanished into the horizon.
"Let's go back too!" Wang Changsheng released his Lin Turtle, and he and Wang Ruyan stood on its back. The Lin Turtle's body glowed brightly with blue light, moving swiftly across the sea surface. Its enormous size made it resemble a mobile island. Before long, the Lin Turtle disappeared into the horizon.
"Two Soul Transformation stage poison cultivators?" Wang Changsheng mused, pondering for a moment. "Invite them to Green Lotus Peak; I have some questions for them."
Wang Moshan acknowledged and turned to leave. In less than a quarter of an hour, Wang Moshan returned, followed by Wang Defeng and his two companions.
"Greetings, Ancestor!" Wang Defeng and the others quickly bowed respectfully.
Wang Changsheng's gaze fell upon Tao Hao and Wang Mianmian. He then asked, "Tell me about the situation in Yunfu Realm."
Tao Hao and Wang Mianmian dared not delay and briefly explained the situation in Yunfu Realm. To travel to other realms, they had wasted many treasures, and their circumstances did not permit them to do it a second time. However, the Wang family had the necessary resources.
