176: Chapter 176 Establishing a Secret Base

Wang Bin pondered for a moment, feeling that Dongfang Wan's words made sense.

Although she was already a Golden Core Realm Cultivator, at her core, she still had the Heart-Nature of a young girl, and leaving her alone on Hulu Island would indeed make her afraid.

“Wan'er, what are you afraid of? I will set up a Tier 3 defensive Formation on the island. Three to five Golden Core Yao Beasts won't be able to break through it, so you'll be very safe inside.

Moreover, I will leave Golden Core Yao Beast Qi marks around the island later, so other Yao Beasts won't dare to intrude easily. Don't worry.”

Wang Bin knew clearly that Hulu Island needed a Golden Core cultivator to guard it, and since he had to return to White Cloud City to bring some of the Wang family over, only Dongfang Wan could take on this responsibility at the moment.

“Senior Brother Wang, I'm still scared.

What if Yao Beasts attack the Formation from outside? My fighting skills aren't good, and if it drags on, the Formation won't hold up.

I don't want to stay here alone, unless…”

Dongfang Wan tugged gently on Wang Bin's sleeve, her voice soft and melodious, with a hint of coquetry that made one's heart soften upon hearing it.

“Then I'll leave Big Yellow Dog here too. Will that work?”

Wang Bin really couldn't resist her coquettish offensive and had no choice but to agree for now.

Actually, he wanted to keep Big Yellow Dog with him all the time. After all, Big Yellow Dog had immense potential, and its treasure-hunting ability was first-rate. Having it by his side would greatly increase the chances of finding overlooked items at stalls or exploring Spiritual Veins outside.

If Big Yellow Dog were to be killed by another Yao Beast on Hulu Island, he would suffer a great loss. Although Dongfang Wan was a Golden Core Realm beauty, she was not as important as Big Yellow Dog.

“No, Big Yellow Dog is useless! It's only a Foundation Establishment Yao Beast; it can't even beat me.

I want that… that thing…”

Dongfang Wan hesitated, but her eyes kept glancing at Wang Bin's storage equipment, her eager little gaze impossible to hide.

“Woof woof! This dog is very powerful! This dog can use Earth escape! Hmph! Master, if I eat a Golden Core, I can become a Golden Core Yao Beast! Then I'll challenge Little Green to a duel; she actually dared to look down on me!”

Big Yellow Dog immediately became displeased upon hearing Dongfang Wan belittle him and started barking loudly.

“Oh! So you want the Kings Sword! Why didn't you just say so, instead of humming and hawing here?”

Wang Bin looked at Dongfang Wan with some helplessness.

“Yes! This Magic Treasure is called the Kings Sword?

That name is so fitting, domineering and overflowing with power! I want a Kings Sword!”

Dongfang Wan's eyes immediately lit up, and she looked at Wang Bin with full anticipation.

This put Wang Bin in a difficult position. The Kings Sword was his secret weapon, and he had never thought of giving it to anyone before.

However, considering that Dongfang Wan's life and death were within his control, and she was simple-minded and gentle, she shouldn't cause any trouble, so he became somewhat amenable.

“Wan'er, giving you a Kings Sword is fine, but don't use it indiscriminately. Its power is too great, and it would be troublesome if it accidentally injured our own people.”

“Mm-hmm! I know! With it, I won't be scared anymore!”

Dongfang Wan nodded like a chick pecking rice, her face full of joy.

“Woof woof! Master, you promised me! Why did you give it to Little Green first? I want one too! Woof woof!”

Big Yellow Dog was so anxious that he kept circling Wang Bin, jumping up and down.

“Stop, don't make trouble.

Everyone gets a Kings Sword, but there are only five bullets.

Don't take them out unless necessary, keep them safe. Remember, when attacking, aim for the Yao Beast's head or Dantian; those are the vital points.

It can basically take care of a Golden Core cultivator in one shot. Be careful not to point the muzzle at our own people.”

As Wang Bin spoke, he took out two brand new Kings Swords and handed them to the person and the dog respectively.

“Big Yellow Dog, you haven't reached Golden Core cultivation yet, so you can't refine Magic Treasures. When you use it, you'll need to aim yourself.

Wan'er, when you refine it, you need to refine all five bullets once so you can control their direction and explosion time. In short, don't use them blindly.”

“Got it!”

After Big Yellow Dog and Dongfang Wan received the Kings Sword, their eyes never left the sword. They had no time to pay attention to Wang Bin, casually giving him a perfunctory reply before eagerly starting to fiddle with them.

Wang Bin didn't mind and began to set up the Formation on the island on his own.

He planned to set up a Tier 3 Gathering Spirit Formation at the White-Crested Eagle's original nest to gather the Spiritual Qi from the Spiritual Vein, and then set up a Tier 3 defensive Formation—the Five Elements Great Array.

The Formation Plate for this Five Elements Great Array was given to him by Chu Wu when he killed the Azure Flame Bird last time.

Although Wang Bin's Formation level hadn't fully reached Tier 3 yet, setting up a Tier 3 Gathering Spirit Formation was no problem.

Other Tier 3 Formations not only lacked Materials but also took a long time to set up.

Moreover, Hulu Island was too large; a Tier 3 Formation could at most defend an area of about a hundred acres.

Forget it, he would protect the Spiritual Vein side first, and consider other areas later.

After Wang Bin surveyed the terrain, he began to set up the Five Elements Great Array above the White-Crested Eagle's nest.

“Wan'er, stay here for a few days. I promise to be back within ten days.

Eat fewer of the Tier 3 Spiritual Coconut Fruits on the tree; there are only a few dozen of them in total. Eat more of the Tier 2 and Tier 1 ones.”

Dongfang Wan's eyes darted around, and she readily agreed verbally, but she was secretly making her own plans.

Wang Bin was still a bit uneasy, so he picked two more Tier 3 Spiritual Coconut Fruits and put them away, just in case there was nothing left when he returned.

“Little Green, help me take good care of my little brother, Little Huang.

When Master and I return, I'll buy a Spirit Beast Bag and take it with me every day from now on.

These are the fish, Spiritual Plants, and bones for it to eat.”

Big Yellow Dog felt full of reluctance at the thought of parting with his newly Acquired little brother and even took out the bones he usually couldn't bear to eat.

Dongfang Wan rolled her eyes upon seeing this, thinking, how could such a large little bird eat bones?

“Got it, remember to return my Spirit Beast Bag!”

Wang Bin took Dongfang Wan's Spirit Beast Bag, preparing to use it for Big Yellow Dog, as Big Yellow Dog was not suitable to appear in human cities. If he were discovered by Zhong Sheng Sect's scouts, it would be troublesome.

After repeatedly admonishing Dongfang Wan, Wang Bin set off on his return journey with Big Yellow Dog.

The journey of over a hundred li at sea was unusually calm and uneventful.

After entering the Demon Beast Mountain Range, they didn't encounter any dangers either. After all, Big Yellow Dog had marked his territory before, and ordinary Golden Core Yao Beasts would know that the place had an owner and would not easily trespass.

After resting for half a day in Big Yellow Dog's Immortal Cave, Wang Bin began to study the collar.

He first tried to recognize it by dripping blood, as some high-grade Magic Treasures and Spirit Treasures required this operation.

As a result, the blood dripped on it had no reaction at all, and he wasted two taels of his blood for nothing, which truly pained him.

Then he tried to imprint it with his Divine Sense, but it was still the same as before; he could only leave a slight trace on the outer layer. He couldn't find where the Restriction inside this collar was hidden at all.

He still wouldn't give up and tried burning it with Spiritual Fire, but the collar was like a bottomless pit, absorbing all the heat without any change.

Inputting Spiritual Qi yielded the same result; the Qi disappeared without a trace, and it accepted everything without any response.

Wang Bin struggled for a long time and finally had no choice. He thought he would just use it as it was for now. Just for its super large storage space and the ability to simulate Qi, it was a rare treasure.

Whether it was used to conceal his identity or to confuse enemies when escaping, it was very useful, and even used to…
