After transmigrating, I cultivated immortality by smelling the scent.

Chapter 255 The Lost Treasure

"Ye Xiaobai, don't think I'll be grateful just because you let me go this time! Next time I meet you, I'll definitely defeat you!" Zhang Yunqing said, looking in the direction Ye Xiaobai had left.

He silently recited it.

There's no need for Qianling Trading Company to stay any longer; the world is vast, and there's bound to be a place for Zhang to find refuge.

Having chosen a direction, Zhang Yunqing drifted away.

……

On the other hand, the return journey went smoothly, and in less than an hour, Ye Xiaobai returned to Dongxing Island.

"Master Ye, you're finally back!" Sun Siyu said excitedly.

"How's the situation?"

"The situation is very bad. More and more cultivators are going mad. Not only are there rogue cultivators, but our Qingxia Sect disciples are also going mad. The number has rapidly increased from dozens to hundreds. The original dungeon is no longer enough to hold them!"

"Now everyone is eagerly awaiting your return with the materials to refine pills!"

"How's it going? Have you recovered the materials?"

Sun Siyu said anxiously.

"Mission accomplished! The materials have been retrieved!" Ye Xiaobai calmly took out the spiritual herb.

Upon seeing the spirit herb in Ye Xiaobai's hand, Sun Siyu's eyes lit up, and she almost jumped up excitedly, saying, "Master Ye, you are amazing! Originally, we didn't have any hope of getting the spirit herb back; we were just thinking of having my master bring some from the sect!"

"This way, we'll also have spiritual herbs for alchemy!"

"However, the situation is urgent. Thank you, Alchemist Ye. Let's refine the pills as soon as possible to prevent the situation from escalating further!"

"Fairy Sun, has your master brought back the spirit herbs yet?"

"I've already sent a message and it's on its way!"

"Alright, let's begin the alchemy process! Are the auxiliary materials ready?"

“That Liu Caisheng is quite capable; he has already collected a lot of auxiliary materials, which is enough for us to refine pills for now. Let’s go!” Sun Siyu explained.

For Ye Xiaobai and Sun Siyu, refining the sixth-grade pill, the Deep Sea Condensing Spirit Pill, was relatively simple. An hour later, Ye Xiaobai had refined a large batch of pills, which he quickly distributed to the mad cultivators.

In a short while, the cultivators recovered to about 70-80% of their original state, which meant they were now ready to deal with the demon race.

When the powerful medicine was being distributed, many otherwise healthy cultivators were already clamoring to leave Dongxing Island and give up participating in the campaign against the demon race. Seeing so many fellow cultivators already going mad before the battle even began, it really wasn't worth risking their lives for a few hundred spirit stones.

Fortunately, after Sun Siyu explained repeatedly, the cultivator's madness had been brought under control.

Thanks to Ye Xiaobai for bringing back the deep-sea dodder in time and refining it into a pill, the other rogue cultivators were finally relieved to see that the mad cultivator had been cured.

At this point, Dongxing Island was completely stabilized. The remaining task was to sprinkle some Deep Sea Concentration Pill powder in the waters surrounding Dongxing Island to suppress the spore activity released by the Glowing Jellyfish.

The next two days were spent refining pills and cultivating, preparing to welcome the arrival of the demon race.

……

A cave somewhere on Thunder Island.

Bai Shengxiong, the demon king of Thunder Island, sat together chatting and laughing with You Changming, a demon cultivator from the Youying Jellyfish clan.

"Brother You, I've already arranged for someone to destroy the deep-sea dodder in the Dongxing Island warehouse. How's your clone progressing?" Bai Shengxiong said with a wicked grin.

"Brother Bai, don't worry. My clone spores have successfully entered the island from the underground rivers surrounding Dongxing Island. By now, the cultivators on the island should have already begun their massacre!" You Changming said calmly.

"Hahaha! As expected of the Netherfire Jellyfish clan, their methods are truly admirable. After this is accomplished, Brother You will definitely reap the rewards!" Bai Shengxiong said excitedly.

"I heard there's a demon friend who'll be joining us. Is that reliable?" You Changming asked curiously.

"That's right. There's also a Purple Flame Thunder Leopard brother who has just transformed and is still recovering. When the three of us transformed demons join forces, the Eastern Reef Islands will soon be our demon race's territory."

Bai Shengxiong became more and more excited as he spoke, and picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

"That's excellent. Even if that Nascent Soul cultivator from Qingxia Sect comes, he won't be able to do anything to us!" You Changming also showed an expression of relief that things were settled.

"Come on, let's have a drink first. When we take over the East Reef Islands, I'll definitely treat Brother You to a good drink!" Bai Shengxiong said, raising his glass.

"Well, it's a deal!"

Then came another burst of laughter.

……

Dongjiao Islands, Dongxing Island.

After an unknown amount of time, Huang Jiansheng, who had returned to the sect, finally arrived with the spiritual herbs.

"Master, why did it take you so long to come back this time?" Sun Siyu couldn't help but complain.

"And you still have the nerve to say that! You made me, a Nascent Soul cultivator, a porter, and you still complained that I was too slow!" Huang Jiansheng hadn't rested much along the way, and he was still being complained about when he got back.

"Here you go, these are the necessary spiritual herbs and some auxiliary materials!"

"By the way, did Ye Xiaobai manage to retrieve the stolen spiritual herbs?" Huang Jiansheng asked casually, thinking that it didn't matter if he didn't, since he had already brought back the spiritual herbs he needed.

"They're already refining the pills! Why are you asking if they've found it yet?"

"What? Master Ye's tracking technique is so amazing! I thought he was definitely not going to find it!" Huang Jiansheng said in shock. After all, the items had already been looted, and more than an hour had passed. Dongxing Island was surrounded by the sea, so who knew where the criminal had gone?

"And he also killed Lao Mo, the number one human trafficker on Dongxing Island, while he was at it!" Sun Siyu added.

The story of killing Lao Mo was just something Ye Xiaobai mentioned casually, all because this guy sold Ye Xiaobai to the demon race. Later, in a conversation with Sun Siyu, he learned that Lao Mo was actually a repeat offender.

They frequently lured cultivators from Dongxing Island to Leiming Island, where they sold them to the demons. Not only were rogue cultivators deceived, but many inner disciples of Qingxia Sect were also tricked.

This guy is, after all, a Core Formation stage cultivator, and Qingxia Sect can't do anything about him for the time being.

Who knew they would encounter Ye Xiaobai, an outsider cultivator, who even inquired about Thunder Island right in front of them? How could they not make the most of the spirit stones they had in hand?

As a result, this old Mo lost his life.

"Oh, is that so?" Huang Jiansheng didn't care that Ye Xiaobai killed Lao Mo; he was more concerned about Ye Xiaobai's tracking skills.

"Yes, Master, you don't seem to care about this. What are you thinking about?" Sun Siyu asked curiously, looking at her master's calm expression.

"If Ye Xiaobai's tracking skills are this good, he might be able to help us a lot!" Huang Jiansheng said thoughtfully.

"Help me a lot? Help me with what?" Sun Siyu asked, her face full of doubt.

A moment later, Sun Siyu excitedly said as if she had just thought of something, "Master, you wouldn't be asking Master Ye to help you find that thing, would you?"

"What? Why not? Since Master Ye's tracking skills are so amazing, maybe he can find that treasure!" Huang Jiansheng retorted.

“That treasure has been lost for many years, how can we be sure we can find this? Master, please don’t make things difficult for Ye Xiaobai!” Sun Siyu directly advised her master to give up that idea.

"No, that treasure is related to the inheritance of our Qingxia Sect. Even if there's only a one in ten thousand chance, I'm willing to try!"

"Alright! We'll talk to Ye Xiaobai after our demon clan's attack is over."
