So that’s how it is.
The realm of Canglan has four sea areas, with the East Sea being the largest, followed by the North Sea and South Sea. The West Sea and the West boundary are relatively small.
Although the North Sea appears to be flourishing now, tens of thousands of years ago, it was ranked second among the four major oceans in the Canglan realm.
The North Sea was home to a greater variety of races, while the West Sea was relatively homogeneous, dominated by the White Dragon Clan.
The White Dragon Clan, like the Jiao Ren Clan, typically assumes a human form. Both races possess a pair of intricate horns on their foreheads.
While the Jiao Ren Clan transforms into True Jiao, the White Dragon Clan transforms into White Dragons.
Flood Dragons are still dragons and are in no way inferior to White Dragons.
However, the White Dragon Clan of the West Sea takes the purity of its bloodline very seriously, so the population of the West Sea Tribe is relatively small.
“Princess Longhan, this is my husband, Qin Changqing.” Bai Ling introduced Qin Changqing as they entered the palace.
“Princess Longhan, we meet again.”
Qin Changqing said.
Princess Longhan was the little dragon girl whom Qin Changqing had met at Master Butterfly Cloud’s 10 ,ooo-year longevity birthday celebration.
Princess Longhan looked somewhat surprised.
Although the Western Sea Tribe had a good relationship with the Guiyuan Sect, she was clearly unaware that Qin Changqing was Bai Ling’s husband. “Queen Bai Ling, Ling’er’s father is Mr. Qin Changqing, isn’t he?”
Long Han turned to Bai Ling and asked curiously.
Bai Ling nodded, “Yes, Princess Longhan.”
Long Han muttered an “oh,” as if deep in thought.
Seeing that they were preparing to discuss some matters, Qin Changqing took Qin Linger out to play.
“Husband, there’s something I need to tell you.” A few hours later, Bai Ling found Qin Changqing.
“What is it, Bai Ling?”
“My husband, Princess Longhan’s visit this time is actually for her sister, Long
Kui, the Queen of the West Sea, who is about to face her final Big Heavenly Tribulation. She has decided to give everything she has to make a breakthrough and advance into the Integration stage.” , Bai Ling said.
“Before making the attempt, she wants to leave behind descendants so that she has no regrets. But there are no suitable candidates in the West Sea. That’s why she came to the North Sea. After seeing you, Longhan thinks you are suitable, so she asked me to check with you.”
Having heard Bai Ling’s words, Qin Changqing understood.
The real purpose of Longhan’s visit was to find suitable candidates in the North Sea to father her sister’s offspring. But she wasn’t able to find one.
Until she saw Qin Changqing.
Upon discovering that Qin Linger and Qin Zhen’er were both Qin Changqing’s daughters, Longhan felt that Qin Changqing was very suitable.
Her sister had already reached the peak of Void Refinement.
But she had never been able to successfully advance to the Integration stage, and now, she was about to face her final Big Heavenly Tribulation.
The implication of ‘the last time’ was clear: she absolutely would not be able to survive it.
If, however, she could survive, there would never be a ‘last time’ Big Heavenly Tribulation.
Given the current circumstances, the Heavenly Tribulation that Long Kui was about to face should be the Sixth Great Heavenly Tribulation.
Even in the Holy Land, no one at the Void Refinement stage has ever been able to survive the Sixth.
“Husband, if you agree, I’ll let Longhan know. She will talk to you personally,” Bai Ling said.
Qin Changqing pondered for a moment and said, “Alright.”
As long as the West Sea Queen was willing, he certainly would be. Besides, he needed a surge of energy for his bloodline symbiosis. Sure enough, Qin Changqing soon met Longhan again.
“Mr. Qin Changqing.”
Longhan greeted him in a polite and courteous manner.
Her demeanor was very elegant and very much that of a princess.
“Mr. Qin Changqing, it’s like this. My sister wishes to have descendants, but her requirements are very high. We’ve been worried. Everyone in the tribe has tried but no one suitable has been found.’
Longhan started explaining in details.
Her sister, the Queen of the West Sea, had lived for over 20 thousand years at the peak of Void Refinement stage. Although she had never been able to break through to the Integration stage, her standards were naturally very high.
The people who could catch her eye were few and far between.
So, although Long Kui was seeking a suitable person this time to continue her line, she didn’t lower her standards at all.
If she couldn’t find anyone suitable, then she wouldn’t bother looking any further.
“We have tried the Southern Sea, but it’s primarily filled with mermen, making it very difficult to find a suitable person. As for humans residing on land, none of them have managed to catch my sister’s eye. My sister is indeed quite picky, but Mr. Qin Changqing should suffice,”
Long Han didn’t say this in absolute terms.
Because she wasn’t sure whether her sister would be interested in Qin Changqing.
“If Mr. Qin Changqing is willing, after seeing my sister, even if she is not interested in you, we are still willing to present you with a grand gift,”
Long Han continued.
Qin Changqing pondered for a moment, then said: “Okay.”
It wouldn’t take long to travel from here to the West Sea, so he might as well go check it out.
“Thank you, your excellency.”
Long Han said gratefully.
Then, she presented a gift, a unique milky white bead called White Dragon Bead. It’s a special product of the West Sea, born from a kind of plant-creature called White Dragon Orchid.
Its function was rare; it could open minds, meaning that after consuming it, one’s understanding could be enhanced somewhat.
Heaven and earth treasures that could enhance one’s understanding were very rare.
This kind of heaven and earth treasure was quite rare on dry land, usually found in the ocean.
But even in the ocean, they were not abundant.
“This is a thousand-year-old White Dragon Bead. After you have met my sister, regardless of whether you succeed or not, we will present you with an even more aged White Dragon Bead, ”
Long Han said.
Qin Changqing collected the White Dragon Bead.
Long Han didn’t waste any more time and set off with Qin Changqing.
The remaining mode of transport was a sea boat made from a white dragon. This sea boat was astonishingly fast on the water.
On the boat, Long Han talked to Qin Changqing more about her sister Long Kui to improve his understanding of her.
Her sister was once a genius in the West Sea.
Before the Void Refinement, her cultivation speed was quite fast.
Even during the middle-stage before the Void Refinement, she was considered fast.
However, at the later stage, she was stuck at a bottleneck-like problem for a long time. It was only after much difficulty that she broke through and reached completion of the Void Refining just before the first great Heavenly Tribulation.
Then, she remained stuck at completion of the Void Refining.
For the sea people. advancing to the Unity Realm or the seventh stage was much more difficult than it was for humans.
Their cultivation system was vastly different from humans, similar to physical cultivation, but not quite.
The human cultivation system had been continuously perfected by countless cultivators over countless years.
Since the total number of sea people was far less than that of humans, it resulted in the sea people’s cultivation system not being as refined as that of humans.
It was not even as refined as physical cultivation.
For instance, in the entire Vast Wave Realm, if there weren’t a thousand types of basic Qi refining techniques, there were at least eight hundred.
There were different kinds of suitable Qi refining techniques for every kind of spiritual root.
As for techniques, there was even more variation.
Of course, these cultivation methods and techniques vary in effectiveness. Generally, the ones that are widely spread are the basic ones.
The good stuff was all kept in the hands of big Immortal Gates.
This was certain.
But it also showed just how prosperous the cultivation world was and how well-developed the human cultivation system was.
However, in the sea people realm, it was quite a different story.
The cultivation methods of the sea people were actually quite limited and were closely related to their own bloodlines.
It’s not to say that these cultivation methods had any issues.
The problem was that unlike humans, the sea people didn’t have numerous cultivators to try and test, hence gathering more experiences and lessons.
The powerful sea people, after cultivating to a certain degree, found fewer and fewer people to interact with.
They could only grope their own way forward.
Hence, even if the sea people had very potent bloodlines, they could hardly make any breakthroughs once they reached a certain stage..
