Chapter 1179: Dual Pincer Island

“A high rank cultivator, let’s go!”

A silver water light burst out from the Sea Creature Clan burly man in a silver robe, and a wave of more than 30 meters high was set off toward the muscular man in a brocade robe and Liu Ming.

Then Sea Creature Clan burly man in a silver robe swung its tail and dived into the sea.

The other Sea Creature Clan people also reacted immediately and quickly dived into the sea, fleeing toward the distance.

Liu Ming didn’t care about this at all. He didn’t intend to chase after these low rank Sea Creature Clan people.

An anxious look appeared in the eyes of the muscular man in a brocade robe, but seeing Liu Ming’s indifferent expression, he had no choice but to swallow the words that came to his mouth.

After this delay, several Sea Creature Clan people had already escaped without a trace.

The muscular man in the brocade robe sighed, put away his long blade magic weapon, flew a few meters away from Liu Ming, and cupped his fist respectfully, “I’m Yue Peng, a casual cultivator of the Guiyuan Xiaguiyuan Island. Thank you senior for helping out.”

The people behind the muscular man also hurriedly bowed to Liu Ming. The bold one secretly examined Liu Ming while bowing.

“Guiyuan Island? I haven’t heard of it. What’s wrong with the group of Sea Creature Clan just now?” Liu Ming turned his eyes and said lightly.

“Senior, we were about to go to the Dual Pincer Island, but we were ambushed by the Silver Scale Sea Creature Clan along the way. If senior didn’t come in time, we would suffer a big loss.” The muscular man in a brocade robe said respectfully.

“Silver Scale Sea Creature Clan…” As Liu Ming heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

“This is the first time I’ve come to this sea area, do you have a map?” He continued to ask calmly.

“I have. Please wait a moment.” The muscular man in a silver robe was taken aback when he heard the words, then he quickly responded. After looking for a while, he took out a wrinkled animal skin and handed it to Liu Ming respectfully.

Liu Ming took it, then he casually threw an intermediate grade spirit stone to the muscular man in a brocade robe.

“Thank you for the reward, senior.” The muscular man in a brocade robe quickly thanked him in joy.

Liu Ming glanced at the map, and he frowned slightly. The islands on the map were quite sparse, and their names were also very unfamiliar, making it difficult for him to judge where he was.

“Which is the nearest island where the human race gathers?” Liu Ming asked.

“Senior, there are no islands inhabited by humans within a thousand miles of this place. If you want to inquire about any news, you might as well go to the Dual Pincer Island, which is only half a day’s journey away.” The muscular man respectfully suggested.

Hearing this, Liu Ming quickly found the location of the Dual Pincer Island on the map and nodded.

“We are also going to the Dual Pincer Island. If senior doesn’t mind, we can lead the way.” The muscular man in a brocade robe said with some expectation.

“Okay.” Liu Ming just thought about it slightly, and he nodded in agreement.

Seeing that Liu Ming agreed, the muscular man in a brocade robe and the others all looked delighted.

Being able to establish a relationship with a Condensation Period would be of great benefit to them.

Especially recently, the conflict between the Sea Creature Clan and the human race in the nearby sea area had become more and more prominent. The Sea Creature Clan had begun to blatantly attack the casual human cultivators everywhere. With a Condensation Period cultivator accompanying them, there must be no great danger on the path ahead.

They quickly left here. Under the guidance of the muscular man, they galloped in one direction.

Along the way, Liu Ming casually asked the muscular man in a brocade robe some questions about the nearby sea area. The muscular man in a brocade robe was thinking about how to get in touch with this Condensation Period senior, so he naturally answered anything he knew.

He quickly learned what he most desperately wanted to know.

Unsurprisingly, this place was really the Sea Region, and this place belongs to the west of the Sea Region. For him, it was only a month’s journey away from the Yunchuan Island.

Returning to the old place, Liu Ming couldn’t help feeling a little emotional.

Before he knew it, he had been away from the Yunchuan Continent for more than a hundred years.

Although for a Real Pellet State cultivator like him, a hundred years was just a short period of time, which was just a long retreat, for low rank cultivators at the Condensation Period and Spirit Apostle Stage, a hundred years could be regarded as a rather long period of time. He wondered what was the situation of the Savage Ghost Sect now?

Noticing that Liu Ming suddenly became silent as if he didn’t want to talk, the muscular man shut his mouth knowingly. They hurried on their way silently.

Although Liu Ming wanted to return to the Yunchuan Continent immediately, he could also pass by the Dual Pincer Island to know about the current situation of the Sea Region.

Judging from the descriptions of the muscular man, it seemed that the conflict between the human race and the Sea Creature Clan had intensified, but this man as a disciple at the Spirit Apostle Stage, knew very little about it.

In the following time, the closer to the Dual Pincer Island mentioned by the muscular man, the more and more human cultivators he met on the way.

These people seemed to be going to the same destination. Most of them were quite young.

“Could it be that Senior Liu doesn’t know about the Immort Ascension Conference on the Dual Pincer Island?” The muscular man showed a look of surprise.

“I indeed forgot about it. Senior Liu just came here, and the Immortal Ascension Conference is held only recently, so it’s no wonder senior doesn’t know much about it.” The muscular man immediately understood that Liu Ming wasn’t familiar with the situation in this area, so he hurriedly explained.

“Oh, tell me about it.” Liu Ming showed an interested look.

Liu Ming learned about the Immortal Ascension Conference from the muscular man.

It turned out that Dual Pincer Island was the largest main island in this sea area. Most importantly, the island had several spiritual veins that were extremely rich in spirit, so there were many casual cultivators gathering there.

Not long ago, several human sects from the Yunchuan Continent sent people to Dual Pincer Island? and issued an announcement, saying that the Immortal Ascension Conference will be held in the near future to recruit casual human cultivators from the human race. They promised bountiful resources for the selected ones.

As soon as this announcement was made, it naturally caused quite a stir among casual cultivators. After all, for casual cultivators, as long as they could be favored by these big sects, their future was promising.

Therefore, a large number of human cultivators in the nearby sea area had recently gathered at the Dual Pincer Island. Even small sects like the muscular man surnamed Yue came from also sent their disciples to participate.

“I see. There is such a grand event, do you know which sects of the Yunchuan Continent came to this Dual Pincer Island?” Liu Ming asked casually with a flash of his eyes.

“It’s Tianyue Sect, Blood River Hall, and Yuanmo Sec that is known as the number one sect in Yunchuan.” The muscular man surnamed Yue said with longing in his eyes.

The other low rank disciples beside him showed envious and yearning expressions when they heard the sect names mentioned by the muscular man surnamed Yue.

“Tianyue Sect…” Liu Ming’s expression flickered, and an icy slender figure with unparalleled sword intent that had been occupying his heart suddenly appeared in his mind.

“Ye Tianmei…”

He was also forced to separate from Ye Tianmei back then.

However, judging from what Siren King said that day, she should have escaped from the Siren King Palace and returned to Tianyue Sect long ago.

Back then, this woman was already at the early stage of the Crystallization Period. Her sword art was already superb back then. After so many years, he wondered where she had reached now.

“Could it be that Senior Liu has been to the Yunchuan Continent?” The muscular man surnamed Yue asked in surprise after noticing the change in Liu Ming’s expression.

“I have indeed been there once before.” Liu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, and his expression returned to normal in an instant.

“Yunchuan Continent is the birthplace of the human cultivators. Unfortunately, I have never been there. By the way, I don’t know if the rules for recruiting disciples at this Immortal Ascension Conference are strict…” The muscular man surnamed Yue saw Liu Ming’s gentle expression, and he couldn’t help but speak more.

Liu Ming smiled lightly when he heard the words, but he didn’t answer.

A few days later, they came to the sky above a vast island without incident.

Seeing from mid-air, the shape of this island resembles the 2 giant pincers of a scorpion. The name of Dual Pincer Island probably came from this.

Near the sea, there was a city building built of greenstone. The area did not seem to be small. Many young casual cultivators flew toward the city after arriving on the island.

Liu Ming and others also landed in an open area outside the city. Several Spirit Apostle Stage cultivators led by the muscular man surnamed Yue looked at the city in front of them curiously.

At the moment, the city gate was bustling with people coming and going. There were almost no mortals here. Most of them were human cultivators, but some alien race cultivators could also be seen from time to time.

There were e no guards at the city gate. On the way here, Liu Ming also heard a lot about the Dual Pincers Island from the muscular man surnamed Yue. This island was rich in spiritual veins, but there wasn’t any big sect occupying them. Except for some human casual cultivators, there were still some other alien races here.

There would be friction between the various forces from time to time, but generally speaking, they were still living in peace.

“The Immortal Ascension Conference is held in the Dual Pincer City. Is senior interested in participating in this conference?” The muscular man surnamed Yue retracted his gaze reluctantly and asked Liu Ming.

“Since I’m here, it’s fine to take a look.” Liu Ming replied with a twinkle in his eyes.

His Divine Thought had long enveloped the entire Dual Pincer Island. In the city in front, there were actually his old acquaintances from the past.

“With senior’s cultivation and strength, if you want to participate in the conference, you will definitely be recruited. It is said that any human cultivator whose cultivation has reached the Condensation Period, as long as his identity is clear, is welcome to the Yunchuan Continent Human Alliance.” The muscular man surnamed Yue said a little enviously.

Liu Ming smiled as if he didn’t care.

Seeing this, the muscular man with the surname Yue smiled awkwardly and didn’t say anything else.

Several people mixed in the crowd and walked into the green city.

The inside of the city was quite clean and tidy. The main road paved with greenstone was several meters wide. The streets in the city were crisscrossed. There were rows of shops on both sides. The items sold had everything included. Cultivators went in and out of the shops.

Although Liu Ming wouldn’t bat an eye at these things, they made the eyes of the muscular man surnamed Yue and several of his fellow apprentices shine.

However, they didn’t stay on the street too long. Following the bustling flow of people, they soon came to a tall building in the city.
