Sage of Humanity-Chapter 1486 - 1484: Arrangements for the Specter

"Got it." Bai Lu nodded obediently, sticking her tongue out playfully at Lu Ye.

Lu Ye looked helpless, then turned to the specter and said, "Hurry up and finish engraving your Spectral Runes!"

The specter complained, "Why are you so harsh?" You weren't this harsh to the Merfolk Princess!

The specter continued to engrave her Spectral Runes, while Lu Ye waited quietly.

The mysterious power of those two golden sea conchs reminded him of the Life Origin Method. Speaking of which, since he and Amber had formed the Life Origin Method, Amber was also in a life-and-death connection with him.

Its effect was extremely similar to the state between Bai Lu and the specter.

But there were differences too; the Life Origin Method simply tied Amber's life and death to his safety. In other words, if he died, Amber would definitely accompany him to the grave. But if Amber died, he wouldn't suffer any harm. From this point of view, the Life Origin Method was somewhat better than the effect of the two golden sea conchs.

Another difference was that their injuries wouldn't synchronize.

Lu Ye had long considered dissolving the Life Origin Method, because as his cultivation increased, the enemies he encountered became stronger and stronger. No one knew what kind of crisis he might face in the future, and if he inadvertently caused Amber to die along with him, then Yiyi wouldn't survive either.

But the Life Origin Method was something he obtained from the secret realm of the Ten Thousand Beasts Domain. Forming it was easy, but dissolving it wasn't as simple.

The manifestation of the Life Origin Method was at his chest, where there was an intricate pattern invisible to the naked eye, which was similar to spirit runes.

Lu Ye felt that he should be able to use the Talent Tree to deduce the mystery of this spirit rune and find a way to dissolve it.

With this thought, he made up his mind to begin deducing the spirit rune of the Life Origin Method once he finished deducing the Breath-concealing Spirit Runes.

A moment later, the specter finished engraving the Spectral Runes and returned the jade tablet to him.

Lu Ye took it and casually asked, "No omissions or intentional errors, right?"

The specter glared at him hatefully, "Do you want me to take off my clothes for a thorough inspection?"

Lu Ye looked up at her, "If you're willing..."

"Don't even think about it!" the specter snapped angrily. "I've fulfilled my part of the deal. When will you take me away from here?"

Although she was eager to try and see how much her cultivation efficiency would improve with Bai Lu, such matters weren't urgent; there would be opportunities in the future.

"I'll come to get you in a few days!" Lu Ye put away the jade tablet.

Right now, it was impossible, as the portal of the green sea conch had long been closed. He had to return to Unparalleled Island from the Constellation Palace and wait seven more days to bring the specter back.

After giving Bai Lu a few more instructions to keep an eye on the specter, Lu Ye finally left the Merfolk Territory.

Just like last time, he borrowed a seahorse star beast and hurried in the direction of the Constellation Palace.

The journey was peaceful. After several round trips, Lu Ye realized that unless one was particularly unlucky, they generally wouldn't encounter the Moon Jade star beast.

Moreover, the seahorse's speed under the All Phenomena Ocean was rapid, providing an opportunity for escape even if encountered.

Letting the seahorse return on its own, Lu Ye opened the large doors of the Constellation Palace and returned to Unparalleled Island through the always open portal.

Without returning to his own cave, Lu Ye made a trip to All Phenomena Island.

His previously purchased starboat was lost, and he needed to buy a new one, or traveling would be inconvenient.

Lu Ye had only spent twenty or thirty thousand spirit jade on the lost starboat, so he wasn't heartbroken over it. Previously, with little spirit jade on hand, he had to buy what was cheap. Now, with ample resources, he naturally wanted to purchase something better and more expensive.

If it weren't for the fact that a battleship required more than one person to operate, Lu Ye might have even considered buying one!

Having contacted Cao Xiang in advance, he was warmly received, and Lu Ye spent a full three hundred thousand spirit jade to purchase a high-quality starboat.

Riding the new starboat, Lu Ye headed straight for the open sea of All Phenomena.

Feeling the various features of the new starboat, Lu Ye was very satisfied. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for—this new starboat far exceeded his old one in both control and comfort.

It was also faster; not that the previous starboat couldn't reach such high speeds, but if there was an unbreakable obstacle ahead, there'd be no chance to dodge, inevitably resulting in a collision and a wrecked boat.

The new starboat, however, was different; even at higher speeds, if an unbreakable obstacle appeared ahead, the Array would timely alert, allowing the cultivator piloting the starboat to dodge calmly.

Moreover, if the old starboat hit small meteorites, there'd be a noticeable jolt, while the new starboat had no such feeling. It was undeniably sturdier and more durable.

To fetch the specter from the Merfolk Territory, Lu Ye couldn't depart from Unparalleled Island. If the specter appeared in the cave on Unparalleled Island, she would immediately know that Fa Wuzun was Li Taibai. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

He could only find an obscure location to take her away and then make plans.

In the short term, Lu Ye wouldn't let her roam free. As for how to settle her, he already had a plan in mind.

Two or three days later, he found a desolate planet to land on and sought a hidden spot to wait.

During the wait, Lu Ye finally took out the jade tablet engraved with the Spectral Runes, observing it while channeling the power of the Talent Tree to begin deducing a new spirit rune based on the original Breath-concealing Spirit Runes.

After a few more days, when the green sea conch could be used, Lu Ye took it out and blew it, opening the portal to the Divine Conch Hall.

Since he had made a promise before leaving last time, the moment Lu Ye appeared, he saw Bai Lu and specter waiting for him here.

Bai Lu nodded at Lu Ye with a smile and pushed the reluctant specter beside her. The specter, unwillingly, walked forward and came to Lu Ye's side, saying, "Fa Wuzun, I want to stay here for a while longer!"

"For what?" Lu Ye frowned.

Previously, this person wanted to leave desperately, how did she change her mind after only a few days?

"To cultivate! Cultivating with Bai Lu is very efficient, and there's no shortage of resources here. I feel if I keep cultivating for a while, I can be promoted to Moon Jade!" The specter expressed excitedly.

Bai Lu had mentioned earlier that cultivating together would greatly enhance efficiency, and she already had psychological expectations, but who knew after starting to cultivate she discovered the efficiency was beyond her imagination.

More attractive than the improvement in cultivation efficiency was the fact that there's no shortage of spirit jade here!

She had personally seen the spirit jade veins in the Merfolk Territory, and her eyes shone brightly at the time; if Bai Lu hadn't pulled her back, she might have rushed down to fill her storage ring.

For a pauper like her, coming to this place was like a lustful demon entering a brothel, and it's free!

She suddenly found this place truly wonderful, so wonderful that she was reluctant to leave. If it weren't for Bai Lu reminding her today, she would have completely forgotten that Lu Ye would come to pick her up.

In this turn of events, her misfortune has turned into a blessing, and all previous unpleasant experiences have long been forgotten.

"I want to cultivate here for another six months, after six months come and pick me up, then..."

Before specter could finish her words, Lu Ye raised his hand, grabbed her by the neck, and threw her into the portal.

"I'm leaving first, will come again next time!" Lu Ye waved to Bai Lu, then turned and entered the portal.

"I'll fight you to the death!"

Just as she had regained her footing, the specter rushed over, baring her teeth and claws, looking like she was going to tear Lu Ye into pieces, Fa Wuzun, this guy is really infuriating!

Earlier when she wanted to leave, Fa Wuzun wouldn't let her, now when she wanted to stay, he just threw her out, she had never been wronged like this before.

Moments later, after exchanging a few moves with Lu Ye and getting punched, the specter held her head with both hands and calmed down.

Her strength was not as good as his, so she couldn't help but be helpless.

Secretly, she resolved that when she is promoted to Moon Jade, she would teach this guy a lesson.

"Give me your star map!" Lu Ye reached out a hand towards her.

"For what?" The specter looked at him warily.

"Cut the nonsense!" Lu Ye's gaze turned cold.

Reluctantly, the specter took out her star map, upon which Lu Ye cast a spell and then threw the star map back to her.

"There's an Unparalleled Island in the All Phenomena Ocean, you should go there."

Though Bai Lu had influence over the specter, ensuring she wouldn't say things she shouldn't, Lu Ye momentarily wasn't planning to let her out of his sight, besides, Unparalleled Island was indeed short of people, her being there would be a boost.

"Heh..." The specter sneered, raising her head slightly, chin tilted at Lu Ye, "Beg me, if you beg me, let's see if I'll go!"

Lu Ye replied unhurriedly, "Only I can take you to the Merfolk Territory!"

The cold sneer on specter's face became stiff, feeling frustrated, after a pause she asked, "What's so mystical about Unparalleled Island that you have your eyes on it?"

"You don't need to worry, just go, they are short of people, it won't be hard for you to join!"

"Give me a timeline, you can't let me stay there indefinitely."

"Depends on your performance!" Lu Ye glanced at her indifferently, then soared into the sky.

Watching Lu Ye's departing figure, the specter gnashed her teeth, and waved her fist towards the direction he left, looking as if she wanted to pound Lu Ye to death.

A moment later, she calmed her mind, took out her star map to investigate, "Unparalleled Island... what nonsense, never heard of it."

She had been wandering around All Phenomena Ocean for years, having come here since she was promoted to Constellation, she thought she knew all the famous or powerful Spirit Islands well, only there's no Unparalleled Island.

It was certain, this was an unnamed desolate island, even not marked on the star map.

As she probed, it was just as she thought, the location of Unparalleled Island on the star map was rather remote, marked only as a desolate island.

Reluctant to go, but she must, she missed the cultivation environment in the Merfolk Race greatly, especially after recent interactions with Bai Lu, she had learned about the existence of Divine Conch Hall.

Knowing that the place was a secret realm where good can be gained, but to enter the Divine Conch Hall, she would need the permission of the Merfolk Queen.

Helplessly, she could only summon her starboat and fly towards the All Phenomena Ocean.
