255: Chapter 255

It is rumored that the Marrow Cleansing Pearl can reshape a Cultivation system. You should ask the Saintess about this; she should know where it can be obtained.

Leave Bai Su here for now; I will help her remove her internal injuries.

After briefly explaining things to Bai Su, Xiao Bai hurriedly set off to find Tian Kui.

As the leader of the Heavenly Demon Fox Clan and the chief military strategist of the Alliance, Tian Kui was busy every day.

She was nowhere near as leisurely as Xiao Bai. Although he held the position of Grand Marshal, he didn't have to worry about Alliance matters at all, as everything was handled by Tian Kui.

It was already late at night, but the room was still brightly lit; from the outside, one could see the busy shadow of the fox demon.

Knock, knock, knock!

"Please come in."

Xiao Bai slowly pushed open the door, but Tian Kui continued with her official business without even lifting her head.

Surrounded by four female fox demon assistants who were constantly organizing documents, a small mountain of papers had formed on the table.

"You're here. Find a place to sit; I don't have time to entertain you right now."

"Not only are there many matters within the Heavenly Demon Fox Clan, but I also need to review documents from other races, many of which involve various trade exchanges."

"In recent years, the Spiritual Qi in the Lower Realm has become exceptionally thin. Since Spiritual Coins are no longer used for settlement, we need to establish a set of universal currency to replace them, and various races have submitted many alternative proposals."

Even late at night, Tian Kui was still dressed in black. Xiao Bai really didn't want to disturb her, so he sat in a chair, intending to wait until she finished her current work.

"This doesn't seem like your character. If you have something to say, just say it."

Xiao Bai quickly and simply explained Bai Su's situation.

"I haven't seen the Marrow Cleansing Pearl either, but I heard from my father when I was young that the Divine Nun of the North Sea has it."

Tian Kui waved her right hand, and a token floated out from the cabinet.

"Take this and go to the North Sea to find the Elder."

"Alright, you continue with your work!"

After leaving the territory of the Heavenly Demon Fox Clan, Xiao Bai flew rapidly northward. Upon seeing the boundless sea, he knew he had arrived at the North Sea, where the Divine Nun lived on a certain immortal mountain.

Xiao Bai took out the token and kept trying to sense a signal, but it was completely useless, like a piece of scrap metal.

After searching the North Sea for three days without finding any trace of the Divine Nun of the North Sea, he had no choice but to call out Huo Linger to help.

"Little one, help me look for her."

Huo Linger complained, "You really are quite stupid. Isn't Ao Wuming your underling?"

"As the Dragon Emperor, he governs all the waters of the Lower Realm. If he gives an order and mobilizes the riffraff of this sea area to search together, wouldn't that be much easier?"

Xiao Bai slapped his forehead. "That's right, why didn't I think of that? You really are a Genius."

Chapter 343 Searching for the Divine Nun of the North Sea

Upon receiving Xiao Bai's message signal, Ao Wuming was extremely excited. He immediately brought over a thousand Dragon Clan Imperial Guards and rushed over at the fastest speed.

"Brother Bai, why did you come all the way here? Is Xiao Xue doing okay?"

Xiao Bai was a bit surprised. "I asked you, kid, to notify the Yao Beasts in this sea area to find someone, so why did you come personally?"

"Rest assured, your sister is doing very well now. She is in the treatment phase, and you will be able to see her in over a month."

Ao Wuming scratched his hair foolishly. "I have nothing to do all day, and I can't handle the affairs within the clan, so I leave everything to those Elders."

"It's rare for Big Brother to summon me personally, so I definitely had to come and report without hesitation."

"Since you're all here, let's search together."

Based on the appearance of Abbess Miejue, Xiao Bai imagined a portrait of the Divine Nun of the North Sea and began to draw it with paper and pen.

"It looks something like this; hurry and give the order to search."

Ao Wuming took the portrait and looked at Xiao Bai with a wicked charm. "Big Brother is truly mighty and domineering, conquering everyone regardless of age or race."

"Are you tired of playing with pretty female Yao Beasts and want to change your taste?"

Xiao Bai kicked him in the butt, completely disregarding the Face of the youngest Dragon Emperor in history in front of his subordinates.

"You kid really deserve a beating. Hurry up and get it done; why so much nonsense?"

"Understood!"

Ao Wuming transformed into a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, circling above the sea and letting out a sharp roar.

The sea demons hiding deep in the seabed soon surfaced. They bowed respectfully and shouted in unison, "Greetings, Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor."

"We did not know of Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor's arrival and failed to welcome you; we beg for your forgiveness."

Ao Wuming cursed, "You all split up and search for the trace of the Divine Nun of the North Sea. She is an Old Nun, probably seventy or eighty years old."

"Report immediately once found."

"Yes..." The sea demons scattered and gathered all the creatures in this sea area to search.

"Big Brother, let's find a place to rest and wait for good news."

Being in the sea area fully demonstrated Ao Wuming's usefulness, saving Xiao Bai a lot of effort.

"Alright, you kid, hurry up and bring out your stash. I know you wouldn't be this shabby while traveling."

Ao Wuming clapped his hands lightly. The Imperial Guards found the nearest deserted island to set up camp, and he had even brought a dozen Dragon Clan maids hidden within the accompanying team.

The two of them were leisurely drinking tea and enjoying a sunbath on the beach, with maids kneading their legs and massaging their shoulders; it was just like they were on vacation.

"Big Brother, how are the techniques of these maids? In what aspects do they need improvement?"

Xiao Bai gave an approving look. "Not bad, not bad. You kid are very sensible. Enjoyment should be in moderation; you must not become addicted."

"Twelve years have passed, and your Cultivation has only increased a little bit. You're still practicing your marksmanship in the brothels, aren't you?"

Ao Wuming hurriedly got up from the lounge chair and raised his hand to swear, "Heaven and earth bear witness! Big Brother is already a Third-Level Emperor Realm Expert; how could I dare to slack off?"

"Besides, as the Dragon Emperor, going to brothels every day would be beneath my dignity, and I can't even handle the beauties in my harem."

"How difficult it is for a Ninth-Level Demon King to break through to the Emperor Realm. My talent compared to Brother Bai is like a firefly to the bright moon."

After chatting and gossiping for a while, Crab Commander sent back good news.

"Reporting to Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor, about a hundred miles to the northeast, we discovered a small island with a temple on it."

Xiao Bai was overjoyed. As expected, there is strength in numbers. By casting a wide net, they quickly had results.

"It is very likely that's the place; let's go over and take a look."

The small island was not very big, only over five square kilometers. The island was a rocky mountain several hundred meters high, with almost no vegetation to be seen, and it was very desolate.

From far away, one could see a temple standing on the mountaintop. Regardless of the raging winds on the sea, the temple remained as steady as Mount Tai.

The flag on the pole at the entrance fluttered in the wind, making a flapping sound.

This time, he was asking for a favor, so Xiao Bai did not want to make a big fuss. Taking Ao Wuming with him was enough, and the main force stayed far away from this small island.

"Don't talk nonsense later. Judging by this situation, the Divine Nun of the North Sea is very likely here."

"Big Brother, please rest assured. I have always been tight-lipped. If you tell me to catch a chicken, I will never chase a dog."

Ao Wuming followed closely behind Xiao Bai like a little sidekick. This temple was smaller than the one on Pan Si Mountain, but the decoration style was surprisingly similar.

This made Xiao Bai inevitably suspect whether there was any connection between the two.

Knock, knock, knock! He gently knocked on the wooden door. "Is anyone inside?"

It was quite a coincidence that the person who opened the door was also a young nun. Xiao Bai even specifically looked at the sign, but there wasn't a single word on it.

"What business do the two benefactors have?"

"May I ask if the Divine Nun of the North Sea is Cultivating here? This Junior has a request."

The young nun bowed with one hand. "Amitabha, the Abbess went to the Witch Clan two days ago. Please come back another day, benefactor."

"May I ask when she will be back?"

"I'm not quite sure. The Abbess did not give specific instructions. Please return, benefactor."

The young nun closed the door casually. The wind on the mountain was blowing hard, making Xiao Bai's hairstyle messy.

It was his first time hearing about the Witch Clan, so he wanted to find Ao Wuming to ask about the situation.

He saw him frowning and shaking his head repeatedly. "Brother Bai, you'd better not go. The Witch Clan is very perverted, much more disgusting than the Demon and Ghost races."

"I heard they can control various corpses as Puppets, and they are simply impossible to kill."

"Is it that mysterious? Anyway, you have nothing to do, so come with me."

Ao Wuming refused without hesitation. "I don't want to go and die. Why don't you ask Old Ghost for help? Anyway, he doesn't have anything to do either."

"With his strange Cultivation Technique, even if he encounters danger, he can retreat unscathed."

Ao Wuming hurriedly slipped away and dove into the sea to return to Dragon City. Just hearing the name Witch Clan made him scared to the point of his Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering; having him go there wouldn't help and would only cause trouble.

Since that was the case, Xiao Bai had no choice but to head to Ghost Emperor City to find Gui Jianchou.

It was his first time dealing with the Witch Clan as well; bringing Gui Jianchou along would increase his chances of success.

"Big Brother, why are you going to the Witch Clan for no reason?"

"Sigh, it's a long story! I originally wanted to ask the Divine Nun of the North Sea for the Marrow Cleansing Pearl, but I didn't expect that she had gone to the Witch Clan, and I don't know when she will return."

"The matter is urgent, so I have to go there to find her."

One could tell from Gui Jianchou's solemn expression that this matter was not easy to handle, and he learned from him that the Witch Clan was quite mysterious.

In the ancient times, the Witch Clan was also part of the Human Race. The Twelve Ancestral Witches ran rampant between heaven and earth, and each one was a top-tier expert, which the Great Emperors of the Immortal Realm were very wary of.

After hundreds of thousands of years of disintegration, their strength gradually withered, and they had not appeared in the public eye for a long time.

Back when the Dragon Emperor gathered the armies of various races to explore the Demon Emperors Tomb, he did not invite the Lich King out of the mountains.

The Witch Clan is not only proficient in all kinds of esoteric arts but also likes to raise corpses. It is said that the Zombie King personally cultivated by the Lich King back then could force the Nine Nether Ghost Emperor to retreat steadily.
