Chapter 3211: Biyuanyu

“You’re welcome, Junior Martial Sister Wang. This is what we should do. To be cautious, I’ll stay on Qinglian Island. My husband should return to the market town first! Experts sent by the main altar are probably already on their way.” Qin Tianxue suggested.

Zhao Yunxiao nodded in agreement and left Qinglian Island.

After a brief chat, Wang Ruyan bid them farewell and returned to Qinglian Peak.

With Wang Yidao and two others successively advancing to the Integration Stage, Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan’s burdens significantly lightened. They no longer needed to lead the charge; they could comfortably remain on Qinglian Island, directing the overall situation.

Even if Wang Changsheng wasn't on Qinglian Island, Wang Ruyan could still repel invading enemies.

Wang Ruyan flipped her wrist, and a light golden spherical bead appeared in her hand. This was the Corpse Bead from the Integration Stage refining corpse.

High-grade refining corpses would nurture Corpse Beads within them. Corpse Beads were greatly beneficial for body cultivators, as they could strengthen physical power.

Most of the refining corpses cultivated by True Monarch Heavenly Corpse had been destroyed in battles. This particular refining corpse was made from the body of a mid-grade Level 6 Double-Horned Vajra Ape. It had been cultivated for over thirty thousand years before reaching the Integration Stage, and it had always been True Monarch Heavenly Corpse's right-hand man.

Given Wang Changsheng's powerful physique, this Corpse Bead would not significantly enhance him. However, if given to younger generations, its effect would be quite good. But the corpse poison on the bead must be removed before it can be given to a junior for refinement.

As for who would refine it, that would depend on the clan members' performance. There weren't many high-grade body cultivators within the clan. Wang Yuan and Wang Qingxiao were demon beasts, and their physiques were already very strong. Wang Yuanjiang and Wang Qinglong were among the few high-grade body cultivators in the Wang family.

Wang Ruyan put away the Corpse Bead, took out a yellow storage bracelet, and with a gentle shake, a large pile of items appeared on the ground.

True Monarch Heavenly Corpse and Revered Lord Heavenly Fiend had annihilated several Integration Stage cultivators from other races. Since True Monarch Heavenly Corpse was more powerful, most of the wealth found on the alien Integration Stage cultivators belonged to him.

There were over three thousand high-grade spirit stones, four Level 7 beast hides, a batch of Level 7 artifact refining materials, twenty-eight Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures (most of which were offensive treasures), including nine mid-grade Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures.

Wang Ruyan's gaze fell upon an exquisite azure jade box, on which was affixed a light azure talisman.

She removed the azure talisman, opened the lid, and a fist-sized azure jade stone appeared before her eyes.

The jade stone was crystal clear, with exquisite, natural patterns on its surface, appearing entirely natural and shimmering with spiritual light.

She picked up the azure jade stone, feeling it light as air.

“Biyuan Jade! Excellent! With this, I can refine Calamity-Substituting Jade Talismans.” Wang Ruyan was overjoyed.

The Wang family possessed the refining method for Calamity-Substituting Jade Talismans. All other materials had been collected, lacking only the main ingredient, Biyuan Jade.

This piece of Biyuan Jade was quite sizable, enough for her to refine multiple Calamity-Substituting Jade Talismans.

The Wang family currently possessed the refining methods for five types of calamity-substituting treasures: Calamity-Substituting Talismans, Calamity-Substituting Beads, Calamity-Substituting Puppets, Calamity-Substituting Jade Talismans, and the Nine-Turn Lotus Plate. The first two were common items, possessed by the Lan, Xin, and Chen families, while Calamity-Substituting Puppets and Calamity-Substituting Jade Talismans were relatively rare.

The Nine-Turn Lotus Plate was a very high-grade calamity-substituting treasure. According to Wang Ruyan, Xuan Qingzi possessed a high-grade calamity-substituting treasure called the Eight-Element Ruler, capable of substituting for calamities eight times. It had been used against enemies, witnessed by all cultivators.

Several powerful beings possessed the Nine-Turn Lotus Plate, but they had long since vanished into the river of history. Of course, there were even higher-grade calamity-substituting treasures than the Nine-Turn Lotus Plate, held by major clans. This was their true foundation.

Calamity-substituting treasures were only useful during battles. If one couldn't overcome the Great Heavenly Tribulation, even the most advanced calamity-substituting treasure would be useless.

Besides these items, there were also dozens of Dharma Idol materials.

True Monarch Heavenly Corpse's Natal Magic Treasure, the Myriad Ghost Banner, still contained many ghost spirits. These would be greatly beneficial for Wang Chan.

She blew a whistle, and Wang Chan and Wang Shan flew out from a small courtyard, landing before Wang Ruyan.

Wang Ruyan flicked her sleeve, and nine Myriad Ghost Banners shot out. She cast an incantation, and an eerie wind howled fiercely, accompanied by the loud wails of ghosts and wolves. A large number of ghost spirits flew out from the Myriad Ghost Banners.

Wang Chan and Wang Shan did not stand on ceremony, devouring all the ghost spirits.

Wang Ruyan could clearly perceive that her divine sense had increased slightly.

After all the ghost spirits were devoured, the spiritual light of the Myriad Ghost Banners dimmed.

Wang Ruyan put away the Myriad Ghost Banners. This set of treasures and the Myriad Ghost Seal were both Ghost Dao treasures, considered highly valuable for ghost cultivators. However, since the Wang family currently had no high-grade ghost cultivators, she stored them in the treasury.

She sorted and put away the items on the ground, took out a blue communication disk, and cast an incantation into it, instructing, “Ruyi, you and Young Friend Long, please come. I have something to say to you both.”

“Yes, Ancestor.” Wang Ruyi's voice came from the communication disk.

A moment later, Wang Ruyi and Long Qingfeng appeared before Wang Ruyan.

Under the Wang family's meticulous care, Long Qingfeng's injuries had already healed.

“Four Integration Stage cultivators attacked Qinglian Island. They came from two factions: one was rogue cultivators, and the other was the Nine Dragon Palace.” Wang Ruyan took out a red jade bottle and handed it to Long Qingfeng.

Long Qingfeng pulled open the stopper, and a red miniature whale flew out. He grabbed the miniature whale and performed soul-searching on it.

“Mu Yuqing! It really is her!” Long Qingfeng's face was filled with murderous intent. If Long Xiao hadn't married Mu Yuqing, he wouldn't have ascended to the position of Nine Dragon Palace Master so quickly, nor would he have been able to command those Integration Stage elders.

“What are your plans? They won't let you off lightly. You could consider staying on our Qinglian Island; we can protect you.” Wang Ruyan said sincerely.

The Blood Whale Clan's main base was too far from the Xuanspirit Continent. As long as Mahayana stage cultivators didn't intervene, the Wang family would be able to protect Long Qingfeng.

“Protect me?” Long Qingfeng felt a little swayed. Mu Yuqing would certainly not let him go. Without the protection of a powerful force, he would eventually be killed.

“Thank you for your kindness, Senior Wang. I'll think about it more!” Long Qingfeng neither refused nor accepted.

“Very well, you should go back and rest! Ruyi, accompany Young Friend Long, and don't let him show himself easily in public. If the news of his presence on Qinglian Island spreads, the Blood Whale Clan might send more experts.” Wang Ruyan cautioned.

Wu Yan could not confirm that Long Qingfeng was on Qinglian Island. The attack on Qinglian Island was merely to report back to Mu Yuqing. He just hadn't expected Wang Mengbin to have advanced to the Integration Stage and refined a seven-colored divine thunder.

If the Blood Whale Clan knew that Long Qingfeng was on Qinglian Island, they might send experts over. It would be better to be cautious.

Wang Ruyi agreed and left with Long Qingfeng.

Putting away Wu Yan's essence soul, Wang Ruyan entered a secret chamber, sat down cross-legged, her expression grim.

“Who exactly leaked the information that my husband was not on Qinglian Island? And which faction were the Void Refinement cultivators who massacred in the alien territories?” Wang Ruyan muttered to herself.

The reason for the alien attack on the Wang family had now been clarified, but the identities of the Void Refinement cultivators who had committed mass slaughter in the alien territories remained unknown. This indicated the involvement of a third party, one with the motive and strength, and also enough time to be involved. Naturally, it must be an alien race.

Was it a certain alien race, or the Lizard Clan? Wang Ruyan shook her head, temporarily setting the matter aside. It wouldn't be too late to consider it after repelling the enemies.
