Looking at the finger that was about to be fully refined, he took a deep breath and quickened the pace of tempering!
Just as Chu Mo had anticipated, Qi Xiaoyu was trapped in the Boundary Sea Dao Sect. Shortly after Xiaoyu's departure, Shui Yiyi and the others also quietly left the Trial Field!
Although they hadn't yet reached the Saint Realm, after entering the Luotian Immortal Domain, they navigated their way, heading toward the Heavenly Sea!
Now, nearly a year later, this group of won had remarkably managed to locate the Heavenly Sea!
But this boundless sea offered no end in sight, leaving them as if groping blindly in the dark.
In addition, the long-unseen Demon Lord had also appeared here in the Heavenly Sea.
Those closest to Chu Mo were all searching for him in their own ways. Each of them had witnessed countless miracles from Chu Mo over the years, so none of them believed he could have fallen here.
However, the Heavenly Sea was vast and exceedingly dangerous.
The peril here surpassed that of the Trial Field by far!
Nonetheless, each person carried a wealth of top-grade elixirs and various dharma instrunts, perhaps due to so residual connection with ancient sects in the Heavenly Sea. Regardless, this group road the sea with impunity, without encountering any life-threatening risks.
Under the leadership of the Drifting Empress, Hongyue, Shui Yiyi, Chu Qing, and Purple Smoke discovered nurous opportunities in the Heavenly Sea, advancing significantly!
Ultimately, they unexpectedly crossed paths with the Demon Lord.
To their surprise, the Demon Lord had reached the Great Saint Realm!
The Demon Lord and the Drifting Empress t for the first ti, yet familiarity seed to arise between them. Recognizing a kindred spirit, they joined forces, reigning freely across the Heavenly Sea.
And so, after a period of ti, they discovered one of the thirteen islands beneath the Boundary Sea Dao Sect.
This discovery occurred entirely by chance.
What they found was stunning—a place of breathtaking beauty nestled within the surging waves of the Heavenly Sea.
The island's presiding Great Saint happened to be a warm and hospitable individual. Upon seeing these outsiders, he cordially welcod them.
The island was called Kunsheng Island, though it wasn't originally known by this na. Allegedly, the Kun Fish Great Saint had practiced cultivation here years ago. After the Kun Fish Great Saint passed away, the locals renad the island to honor his mory.
The island's master was nad He Lanfeng, a gentle and refined middle-aged man exuding an air of tranquility and detachnt from worldly struggles, with an openhearted disposition and a penchant for making friends.
He quickly forged a friendship with the Demon Lord and Drifting Empress.
They shared the sa cultivation level, giving them plenty of common ground for conversation.
After just two days, He Lanfeng decided to take the Demon Lord's group to visit the headquarters of the Boundary Sea Dao Sect.
"Brother Demon Lord, in a few days, our young master will celebrate his wedding. If not for eting you all, I'd have already departed. But this timing is perfect; let us go together! I believe that when the sect master sees new friends coming to offer congratulations, he will be delighted!" He Lanfeng said with a laugh.
The Demon Lord and others exchanged glances before the Demon Lord pondered for a mont and nodded. "Won't this be a little presumptuous?"
"Not at all, not at all!" He Lanfeng responded with a smile. "We cultivators are kindred spirits; encounters are destined. The sect master loves making friends, especially the two vice sect masters—they're both extraordinary won of the highest caliber. I'm certain they will be thrilled to et the ladies accompanying you!"
Deep down, He Lanfeng harbored his own aspirations. While there were plenty of human cultivators in the imasurable Heavenly Sea, truly exceptional talents were scarce. This group was clearly travelers from afar exploring the world. If he could convince them to stay within the Boundary Sea Dao Sect, it would be a trendous boon for the sect!
Such a contribution to the sect might garner even greater joy during the nuptial celebration, earning He Lanfeng so well-deserved recognition.
The Demon Lord, Drifting Empress, and their companions naturally had their own plans. They understood one fundantal truth: with the Heavenly Sea so vast, blindly fumbling about for Chu Mo's whereabouts might lead to fruitless searching even after a thousand years.
However, if the Boundary Sea Dao Sect agreed to aid their efforts, the outco could be entirely different!
The sect was one of the most influential forces in the Heavenly Sea, with disciples beyond asure. If they were willing to lend their support, the chances of finding clues would surely increase exponentially.
And so, the two parties quickly struck an agreent. Not long after, He Lanfeng led them toward the sect headquarters.
Deep beneath the ocean.
Chu Mo had reached the final stage of refining the finger.
Inscription!
He intended to imprint his own Dao onto the finger. Only then would this dharma instrunt be truly complete. And this was the most critical step.
As a cultivator at the Great Saint Realm, refining the finger of a giant—especially one who was still alive—was no small feat.
To inscribe his Dao onto the finger posed imnse difficulty.
Even deep beneath the Heavenly Sea, Chu Mo could feel an overwhelming pressure. The mont he attempted to create the imprint, a figure suddenly materialized from the finger.
A woman, stunningly beautiful, but her gaze was filled with fury as she glared at Chu Mo with icy determination. In a cold voice, she said, "Boy, do you intend to fully oppose giants, leaving yourself no retreat?"
Chu Mo stared at the woman and asked, "Are you Zhong Caiyun?"
The woman didn't respond, instead looking at Chu Mo with an expression of contempt. Her gaze was as dismissive as though she were staring at an ant.
This irked Chu Mo greatly. He chuckled coldly and said, "What are you so arrogant about? It's not as though you're not a re fragnt I severed from a giant! Leave no retreat? When did your kind ever leave a retreat?"
"If you fully refine , you'll bring about a monuntal cause and effect!" the woman threatened.
Chu Mo burst into hearty laughter. "Cause and effect? I've shouldered more cause and effect than you can imagine! Who do you think you are?"
Without hesitation, he struck out, slicing the figure with a single blade, causing her to dissolve into an endless stream of essence energy. In truth, she was rely a manifestation of Zhong Caiyun's resentnt, born from the finger. To Chu Mo, she posed no threat. She couldn't even unsettle his emotions.
Chu Mo had endured far too much to take her threats seriously.
After eliminating the resentnt, Chu Mo resud his work, beginning to inscribe his Dao onto the finger, now transford into a jade flute-length object.
Boom!
The formation of a Great Saint artifact inevitably triggered a Heavenly Tribulation!
Even deep in the ocean, it couldn't be avoided.
But Heavenly Tribulations were child's play to Chu Mo. Especially those associated with the creation of Great Saint artifacts—they were trivial.
The true challenge lay in engraving his Dao onto the object, which consud considerable ntal energy.
After half a month, Chu Mo finally finished inscribing the final thread of Dao principles.
Buzz!
A massive surge of power exploded forth.
The light illuminated a vast portion of the ocean floor!
A new Great Saint artifact, after a year of refinent, had finally been completed!
Feeling the powerful waves emanating from the dharma instrunt, Chu Mo's face finally broke into an ecstatic smile.
Yet, amidst the glowing radiance, he noticed sothing several hundred miles away beneath the ocean—sothing he hadn't perceived before. In the depths of the Heavenly Sea, divine sense was ineffective, making the discovery a surprise. Upon closer inspection, the object appeared to be a weapon?
This sparked imnse curiosity in Chu Mo.
High-tier dharma instrunts were not uncommon, but truly supre weapons were exceedingly rare.
Chu Mo now understood that a cultivator's weapon, once reaching the level of a holy artifact, beca unimaginably powerful, especially in the hands of the right wielder.
For example, Monkey Great Saint's weapon—the Golden-Hooped Staff—was forged by Fox Heaven Great Saint. Though rely a holy artifact, Monkey wielded it as his personal weapon, grappling with giants and fighting to his heart's content!
Although the staff ranked as a holy artifact, Monkey had nurtured it into his life-bound weapon!
In the Cultivation Realm, it was globally acknowledged that while high-tier dharma instrunts were easy to acquire, a weapon perfectly suited to oneself was an extraordinary rarity.
Could it be that Chu Mo had stumbled upon a supre weapon in the depths of the Heavenly Sea?
With newfound anticipation, Chu Mo advanced toward the location.
Chu Mo's arsenal of dharma instrunts was already astonishing. Even in the Boundless Heavenly Sea, accessible to few—even giants couldn't move as effortlessly as he did.
Quickly, Chu Mo arrived at the mysterious weapon. After careful examination, he realized the massive weapon, spanning thousands of miles, was a trident!
On closer inspection, Chu Mo noticed a marking at the base of the weapon. His heart surged with excitent!
Sea God Spear!
This weapon turned out to be one of the eight holy artifacts forged by Fox Heaven Great Saint—the legendary Sea God Spear!
The whereabouts of the Sea God Spear had always been shrouded in mystery. It was known that Fox Heaven Great Saint distributed his eight holy artifacts among his brethren.
"The Golden-Hooped Staff is with Monkey Great Saint. But this Sea God Spear... sunk into the Heavenly Sea. Rumor has it that Kun Fish Great Saint was defeated and subrged here, eting his demise. Could this an..." A gleam of brilliance appeared in Chu Mo's eyes.
He placed his hand on the gigantic weapon and began channeling his Dao into the Sea God Spear.
Buzz!
The Sea God Spear erupted with dazzling light.
In the cold and pitch-black depths, it shone like a sun, radiating intense Dao principles and rebuffing Chu Mo's energy.
Still alive!
Chu Mo's astonishnt was beyond words.
Through countless years, this Sea God Spear had not perished; it rely slumbered. It... remained alive!
If the weapon was still alive, then its owner... could they also?
This realization ignited hope within Chu Mo.
Among the seven Great Saints led by Monkey Great Saint, each seed tied to the allied forces. Adding Kun Fish Great Saint to their ranks would significantly bolster their strength!
Motivated by this possibility, Chu Mo began exploring the surrounding area.
Though his divine sense was unavailable here, his keen eyesight sufficed.
anwhile, at the Boundary Sea Dao Sect headquarters, festive banners adorned every corner, accompanied by booming music and joyous fanfare.
Guests had arrived from all directions!
The Boundary Sea Dao Sect's young master, Xuan Wudi, was getting married!
