The Lord of Void and Real
Chapter 922

Chapter 922: Chapter 919: Lost Chapter 922: Chapter 919: Lost Time ticked slowly away, and after nearly half a day had passed, Shen Luo finally fully absorbed the power of the entire Snow Soul Pill, and his cultivation level soared significantly.

“Good! As long as there are enough Snow Soul Pills, I won't need a year to reach the peak of the Late Nascent Soul Stage!” Shen Luo exhaled a long breath and clenched his fists.

The only thing he was worried about now was the insufficiency of Snow Soul Pills. He hoped he could gather some on the next island.

At this moment on the Eastern Sea, danger could come at any time. After testing the effects of the Snow Soul Pill, Shen Luo did not continue to cultivate and undid the white protective cover around him with a hand gesture.

Bai Xiaotian stood at the bow of the boat, both steering the flying boat forward and attentively scanning the surroundings, his face showing a hint of fatigue.

“Brother Bai, you've worked hard. Let me take over steering the flying boat,” said Shen Luo.

“That would be much appreciated, Brother Shen,” Bai Xiaotian said, indeed tired, he nodded and took a seat at the stern of the boat.

Shen Luo performed hand gestures and continued to propel the flying boat forward.

Liubo City was still in the coastal waters, with few monsters. The two men switched turns steering the boat, and at a good pace, they arrived at the second island with cultivator city walls, Cangyue Island, after one day and one night.

Cangyue Island was quite larger than Liubo Island, but the city on the island was smaller, and the number of monks was far less than in Liubo City.

No wonder, since Liubo City was located by the sea and had shops established by The Four Great Merchant Alliances, it not only attracted monks from the maritime routes but also monks from various sects on land who would gather there, naturally making it more prosperous than Cangyue Island.

The white flying boat stopped outside the island, and Shen Luo leaped down, heading towards the city.

However, Bai Xiaotian did not land on the island. He stayed on the boat, took out a tome on poisons, and began to study it, completely engrossed in the content.

The layout of Cangyue City was similar to that of Liubo City. A square was built in the center of the city walls, with all the higher-end shops gathered around it, including One Medicine House.

Shen Luo strode into the shop, and an attendant hurriedly came up to greet him.

“Go call your master. I have a big deal to discuss with him,” Shen Luo said, not waiting for the attendant to reply, waving his hand.

Seeing Shen Luo's manner, the attendant did not dare to take him lightly. While leading Shen Luo into an inner room, he sent someone to summon the shop's owner.

Shen Luo waited in the inner room for moments before a scholarly middle-aged man walked in.

“I am Yuan Lang, the owner of this One Medicine House. May I know the esteemed name of the Daoist friend?” the scholarly man greeted with a bow.

“My family name is Shen. Let's skip the formalities. I'm here to buy some Snow Soul Pills from your shop. I'll take as many as you have,” Shen Luo said bluntly without beating around the bush.

“Snow Soul Pills? Daoist friend Shen actually knows our shop has this elixir. However, I'm afraid I must disappoint you, as our One Medicine House does not sell Snow Soul Pills,” said the scholarly man, first startled then with a wry smile shaking his head.

“No Snow Soul Pills? How can that be? I bought several bottles at One Medicine House in Liubo City,” Shen Luo's face darkened.

“Daoist friend Shen, you are not aware. That Snow Soul Pill is a precious elixir recently refined by our master, and its production is extremely scarce. Currently, only the One Medicine House headquarters in the Luo Star Archipelago and Liubo City, which is closer to land, have it for sale. Other places have not received this medicine,” explained the scholarly man.

Shen Luo had been carefully observing the scholarly man and judging from his tone and demeanor, he didn't seem to be lying, which immediately sank Shen Luo's heart.

If what this man said was true, Shen Luo's idea of collecting elixirs along his way would be dashed.

Even if the Luo Star Archipelago had Snow Soul Pills, with such a miraculous effect, there would definitely be many people looking to purchase it, and he might not be able to secure any.

The more he thought about it, the uglier his expression became.

“Daoist friend Shen need not be pessimistic. The biggest obstacle in refining Snow Soul Pills is the main material, the Tear Demon Pearl. Our One Medicine House has issued a task at the headquarters. Any Daoist friend who can provide Tear Demon Pearls can get the pills refined by our master for free, and the elixirs obtained will be split fifty-fifty. Seeing as your cultivation level is powerful, Daoist friend, you might try looking for the Tear Demon in the Eastern Sea. If you can find several, why worry about not getting Snow Soul Pills?” the scholarly man, seeing Shen Luo's face becoming increasingly troubled, revealed a piece of news.

“There's actually such a matter!” Shen Luo was initially delighted upon hearing the news, but his mood quickly dimmed.

According to Yuan Qiu, Tear Demons were rare creatures in the Eastern Sea, and it was difficult to find even one, let alone several.

Besides, he had to search for the Nine Brahmanic Lotus on this trip, so he had no time to look for Tear Demons.

“Thank you for the information, I must take my leave now.” Since the Snow Soul Pill was not here, Shen Luo did not stay any longer and quickly got up to say goodbye.

Since things weren't going his way, he had no desire to loiter around in Cangyue City and immediately left the city.

“Brother Shen, didn't you manage to buy that Snow Soul Pill?” Bai Xiaotian, noticing Shen Luo's expression, put down the book he was holding and asked.

Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian were close friends. On their way here, he had already told Bai Xiaotian about the Snow Soul Pill.

Shen Luo sighed and roughly recounted the situation of attempting to purchase the elixirs at One Medicine House.

“This matter is indeed troublesome, let's go check out the Luo Star Archipelago first. If we can't buy the elixir, we'll make long-term plans,” Bai Xiaotian suggested, not having any better solution.

“That's the only option,” Shen Luo said with another sigh.

The two of them then spurred their flying boat on, continuing towards the deeper parts of the Eastern Sea.

Over the vastness of the Eastern Sea, a shuttle-shaped flying boat sped through the sky, trailing a long white tail light behind it.

Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian stood at the prow and the stern, respectively, squinting their eyes and scanning the surroundings, as if searching for something, both with grim expressions.

“How's it going? Found anything?” Bai Xiaotian, after a long search to no avail, looked towards Shen Luo.

Shen Luo's eyes were flickering with green light, but unfortunately, his Xuan Yin Mystifying Pupil was not adept at long-range observation, yielding no results, and he shook his head in disappointment.

“Who would have thought that the East Sea Maritime Route would be so vast. We got lost in a moment of inattention. If I had known, I wouldn't have tried to be clever and taken the new route,” Bai Xiaotian lamented.

More than ten days ago, the two set out from Cangyue Island and continued deeper into the Eastern Sea.

Since they couldn't buy the Snow Soul Pill along the way, they decided not to stop anymore and chose to follow the maritime route to the Luo Star Archipelago in one stretch.

Although there was only one sea route, it wasn't a straight line; it meandered around many islands along the way.

Taking turns in controlling the flying boat, Bai Xiaotian, during one of his turns, deviated from the chart at a bend and ventured into a vast sea fog, thus losing their way.

Afterward, they tried to find their bearings, but the sea was uniform in appearance, lacking any landmarks, making the search for the route like groping in the dark, utterly clueless, and impossible to find.

Only then did the two realize the severity of the situation. Shen Luo quickly sought advice from Yuan Qiu, but even Yuan Qiu had no solution.

With no other choice, Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian had to continue eastward while searching.

It was unsure whether they were unlucky or the Eastern Sea was simply too vast, but after searching for over ten days, they did not encounter a single person, although they encountered many monsters.

Fortunately, both of their cultivation levels had significantly progressed, and the treasures they possessed were very powerful, allowing them to overcome these challenges one by one.

“Let's move on; I refuse to believe we won't come across a single person,” Shen Luo declared.

Bai Xiaotian nodded slightly and continued to pilot the flying boat eastward.
