“A third stage island for free?”
Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes.
He knew from the memory of the Three Owls of Wu that this was one of the Wuji Alliance’s methods to attract loose Golden Core cultivators.
After all, a Golden Core Master who wants to practice cultivation definitely needs to find suitable spiritual veins.
So, this meant that they would have to join the Wuji Alliance.
For the Wuji Alliance, this strategy was actually not a loss.
Because the territory controlled by the Wuji Alliance was vast, too vast.
With the Wuji Island as the center, covering hundreds of millions, even billions of kilometers of sea area, no one knew how many islands were scattered around.
Naturally, islands with fourth-stage spirit veins were in minority.
But for third-stage spirit vein islands, just those discovered by people were already over 100,000.
As for the second stage spirit vein islands, they were countless, innumerable.
With so many islands, it was unrealistic for the Wuji Alliance to exploit every single one with their manpower.
They simply didn’t have enough hands.
Just exploiting an island like the Wuji Island, with a diameter of a million kilometers, had already exhausted a lot of their manpower.
That’s why they were better off being generous, taking out some third-tier islands and giving them to Golden Core Masters.
After all, the nominal control was always with the Wuji Alliance.
If the other party died, their lifespan expired, or they were betrayed, they could take back this third-tier island.
Over time, the Wuji Alliance could effortlessly gain a large pile of islands fully exploited by Golden Core Masters.
At the same time, inheriting all the wealth on the islands.
You could say it was a plot that killed many birds with one stone.
And it was a transparent plot.
Even if other Golden Core Masters knew about the Wuji Alliance’s intentions, they would still rush forward eagerly.
In a certain way, the Wuji Alliance was indeed a huge alliance, ruling over a large number of Golden Core families and Golden Core sects, like stars revolving around the Wuji Island.
It was just like all the stars surrounding a moon.
As long as the Wuji Alliance could continually foster Nascent Soul Ancestors, they could exist forever.
“We got it.”
Leng Yuexi and the others nodded, looking at the Golden Core managers.
“Which third-stage island do you want?”
At this point, Golden Core Manager Peng Hao brought out a pile of materials, containing information about all the major third stage islands, and handed them all to Leng Yuexi and the others to choose.
Once chosen, they could not change their decision.
“My lord, which island should we choose?”
At this time, Leng Yuexi transmitted her thoughts to Zhou Sui, asking for his opinion.
After all, this choice was extremely important, once chosen improperly, they basically would not be able to change it.
“Which island?”
Hearing this, Zhou Sui’s eyes flashed, to be honest, even with the memory of the Three Owls of Wu, he didn’t have a thorough understanding of the islands owned by the Wuji Alliance.
After all, the islands owned by the Wuji Alliance were simply too numerous.
But luckily he had the Heavenly Earthly Wondrous Insect on him – the Object-searching Gu, this Gu insect, after five years of cultivation, had been elevated to the mid-grade level of the second stage, compared to when he first acquired it, its abilities were now much stronger.
It could not only help the host find specific objects and people but also help the host find things they desired in their hearts, even if those things were extremely vague, even if they had no impression of them at all.
This was the amazing aspect of the Object-searching Gu, serving as a wish machine, it could help the host find anything.
With this thought in mind, he didn’t hesitate and immediately activated the power of the Object-searching Gu.
“Help me find the most suitable island.”
Zhou Sui poured his thoughts into it.
Splash-—
In an instant, it seemed as if the Object-searching Gu sensed something, its power penetrated into the endless lines of karma, and it accessed some information from the void.
The next second, a piece of information immersed deep into Zhou Sui’s sea of consciousness.
“Tri-Star Island Group, suspected to possess fourth-stage spiritual veins.”
All of sudden, Zhou Sui got this information from the Object-searching Gu, he was greatly shocked, feeling unbearably excited in his heart.
Generally, the Wuji Alliance would only possibly offer islands with lower-tier third-stage spiritual veins.
As for islands with fourth-stage spiritual veins, don’t even think about it, they were basically occupied by Nascent Soul Ancestors.
At the least, they would be occupied by core members, and would not be given to perimeter members.
But there were exceptional cases.
That was when these islands concealed fourth-stage spiritual veins even the members of the Wuji Alliance hadn’t noticed.
And this was pretty normal.
After all, the exploration of spiritual veins was actually a difficult task, not as simple as imagined.
It was similar to locating a deposit of minerals, finding a rich mine was difficult.
So this had also led to some spiritual veins being hidden deep underground, impossible for cultivators to detect.
Therefore, some cultivators had the opportunity to stumble upon hidden treasure.
Apparently, the Tri-Star Island Group that the Object-searching Gu hinted at might just be a pearl in the profusion of islands.
With this thought, Zhou Sui immediately transmitted his thoughts to Leng Yuexi, Lin Yazhu, and Shen Biqian.
Although Leng Yuexi and the others didn’t know why Zhou Sui wanted to go to that island, they had absolute trust in Zhou Sui, hence without hesitation, they made their choice.
They conveyed their choice to the Golden Core Manager, Peng Hao.
“Tri-Star Island Group?”
“We do have such a group of islands in our Wuji Alliance.”
“This place has three islands, their shape resembles stars, hence it is named Tri-Star Island.”
“They are separately called Wood Star Island, Fire Star Island, and Water Star Island..”
