Chapter 2252: Chapter 2237: Yin Yang Spirit Detecting Needle

To be honest, Ye Zhen did not want to leave the Golden Moon World so quickly!

Ye Zhen was puzzled why the Fifth Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Poyue, was so generous.

He had been plundering in the Golden Moon World for a full seven and a half months, yet the Fifth Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Poyue, let him be and did not interfere!

Initially, Ye Zhen thought that the Fifth Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor was waiting to unleash a major move.

In fact, even until Ye Zhen left, the major move of the Fifth Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Poyue, never appeared.

Honestly, such a good opportunity for peaceful plundering doesn’t come often.

Especially since Ye Zhen’s Dao Realm subordinates could peacefully refine and collect the Mountain Range and Earth Vein Essence Cores for him.

If war came, these Dao Realms would not have the time to refine and collect the Mountain and Earth Vein Cores for long!

Honestly, Ye Zhen truly did not want to leave!

But he had to go.

The debts with Mountain God Yi Xun were already overdue by a month, and he had reminded him several times, making Mountain God Yi Xun quite troubled.

Thankfully, Ye Zhen currently held the identity of Duke of North Sea County, which was somewhat valuable. He wrote a personal letter stating that he was still in the Outer Domain, needing one or two months to return, asking for a delay in the debt, and also attached the seal of the Duke of North Sea County to guarantee it, which helped appease the situation.

With the debt extended, Ye Zhen originally intended to plunder for another two or three months. Without discussing other things, he planned to bring back more Mountain Range and Earth Vein Essence Cores.

Unfortunately, his space was full!

These seven and a half months of continuous plundering had completely filled Ye Zhen’s Mirage Dragon Pearl Space.

Whether it was the captives or various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, the Mirage Dragon Pearl Space was nearly overflowing, and Ye Zhen had to leave.

Furthermore, the statistics of Yue Yuan, the Left Commander of the Bodyguard of the Fifth Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Poyue, were indeed incorrect. Ye Zhen captured up to eight million slaves!

The entire Mirage Dragon Pearl Space was almost at the point where people were packed like sardines, and Ye Zhen estimated that if this state persisted for more than ten days, the captives in his Mirage Dragon Pearl Space would start dying in batches.

So, Ye Zhen had to return.

He had no choice; Ye Zhen’s own Mustard Seed Space had not been further enhanced with Condensed Casting. With the Mirage Dragon Pearl full, he could only return.

This plundering spree could be said to be wildly successful.

In the short term, Ye Zhen would not return to the Golden Moon World.

Because even if he returned to the Golden Moon World, he would not gain much.

Moreover, going forward, ten or twenty Mountain Range Essence Cores would not significantly improve Ye Zhen’s power.

If he returned, he’d have to wait until he had more Dao Realm experts under his command, capable of gathering dozens to hundreds of Mountain Range and Earth Vein Essence Cores in a few months, before he’d come back.

Everything was going smoothly!

The only difficulty was when activating the Innate Spiritual Treasure Twelve Primordial Celestial Treasure Pearl to conduct teleportation back to the Primordial Continent, the drain of Spiritual Power almost left Ye Zhen and Little Demon completely dry!

This time during the teleportation, the Spiritual Power consumed by the Twelve Primordial Celestial Treasure Pearl was more than double compared to before.

If it weren’t for the critical moment when Little Demon directly activated thirty-six Plum Blossom Essence-Stealing Needles to extract and replenish the Spiritual Power from the bodies of Nine-Headed Beast, Little Cat, and Mystical Mechanism Avatar, Ye Zhen might have been directly drained to death by the Twelve Primordial Celestial Treasure Pearl!

Afterwards, Ayuan apologetically explained to Ye Zhen, "I’m sorry, Young Master!"

"I’ve never encountered this situation before! The previous owner never transported such a large number of living things at once using the Mirage Dragon Pearl! I didn’t know that the increase of living beings would multiply the consumption of the Twelve Primordial Celestial Treasure Pearl...."

"I really didn’t do it on purpose...."

Seeing Ye Zhen shrink back into the Mirage Dragon Pearl as soon as they returned to the Primordial Continent, looking like they were on the brink of death, Ayuan was almost in tears.

"It’s okay.... I know.... I don’t blame you...."

"Next time.... we’ll have experience...."

Ye Zhen weakly waved his hand and only after a long time did he sit cross-legged to recover his entirely depleted cultivation.

Fortunately, Little Demon’s Devouring Divine Ability was under control, only devouring Spiritual Power; otherwise, this teleportation could have caused Ye Zhen to falter severely.

Ye Zhen realized for the first time that when transporting a Mustard Seed Space or world filled with numerous living beings, the consumption of the Twelve Primordial Celestial Treasure Pearl increased dramatically.

This time, Ye Zhen, Little Demon, Little Cat, and Nine-Headed Beast lingered in the Mirage Dragon Pearl Sequential Space for a full three months before fully recovering.

The feeling of having even the Dantian drained completely was truly painful.

Of course, only one day had passed in the outside world.

....

As the Twelve Primordial Celestial Treasure Pearl brought Ye Zhen to a deep-sea location near the Five Immortals Island on the Primordial Continent, deep within the underground space of the Five Immortals Island, a figure suddenly opened his eyes.

"This aura? Why is it so familiar?"

Vast and boundless Primordial Spirit Aura instantly transformed into an arrow, shooting straight toward where Ye Zhen appeared.

The speed was swift and rapid, yet no one noticed this Primordial Spirit Aura.

Within a few breaths, this Primordial Spirit Aura appeared in the secret underwater space Ye Zhen had constructed near the sea around the Five Immortals Island.

And at that moment, the exhausted Ye Zhen had just returned to the Mirage Dragon Pearl Space, where the entire underwater secret space was currently empty.

With a move of Divine Thought, the Primordial Spirit Illusion immediately turned into a hazy Primordial Spirit Illusion!

If Ye Zhen saw it, he would be astonished to recognize that it’s an Avatar Projection, an ability those who master Primordial Spirit Power can execute.

Depending on the cultivation, this Avatar Projection could possess a fraction of the main body’s power, making it incredibly fearsome!

At this moment, the Divine Sense of this Avatar Projection swept through every inch of the underwater secret space like water.

"That’s right!"

"It’s the aura of that Innate Spiritual Treasure, it definitely cannot be mistaken!"

"After so many years, it finally reveals itself!"

After sensing for a while, this Avatar Projection suddenly sneered, "This thief was quick to react, actually able to sense my pursuit and escape so swiftly!"

"However, you can run away, but not hide from me. I know your aura clearly!"

With a sneer, this Avatar Projection conjured an incomparably mysterious Magic Formula; as it was cast, strands of aura characteristics with Ye Zhen’s traits swiftly gathered from all directions and converged into the hand of this Avatar Projection.

The aura wasn’t much; gathered together, it was only strands resembling a few hairs.

Nonetheless, this Avatar Projection looked very satisfied with these strands.

"These strands are enough for me to refine ten Yin Yang Spirit Detecting Needles! Once I have these Yin Yang Spirit Detecting Needles, finding this thief’s whereabouts is only a matter of time!"

Saying this, the Avatar Projection carefully stored away Ye Zhen’s strand-like aura, then surveyed the underwater secret space one last time, meticulously erasing its traces before vanishing without a trace.

As for Ye Zhen, who was slumped in the Mirage Dragon Pearl like a pile of mush, he had no idea that such a perilous scene had unfolded just after he entered the Mirage Dragon Pearl Sequential Space.

Moreover, a great power had taken away his aura using a projection.

However, if Ye Zhen heard the murmuring of this great power, especially the words ’Yin Yang Spirit Detecting Needle,’ he would probably be shocked on the spot.

Because this Yin Yang Spirit Detecting Needle is recorded in the teachings of Master Lud Li.

The Yin Yang Spirit Detecting Needle only requires a strand of the enemy’s aura and, using various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and Secret Techniques, can be successfully refined into a tracking Secret Treasure.

With the Secret Technique activated, the target can be traced within ten thousand miles, indicating its approximate direction, and within a thousand miles, pinpointing the exact direction.

With the Yin Yang Spirit Detecting Needle, investing a bit of time and effort could ensure the enemy has nowhere to hide!
