Chapter 543: Soul Island

Moonlight Divine Water!

Hua Changxi used almost all her strength to curb the greed growing wildly in her heart and the impulse to go up and collect it immediately.

The record about Moonlight Divine Water in the "Notes on the Hundred Herbs" flashed through her mind—the supreme holy medicine for repairing and nourishing the primordial spirit!

For cultivators with damaged or weak primordial spirits, one drop can smooth out soul cracks and stabilize the Dao foundation; it is even a life-saving trump card to prevent the soul from flying away after a failed tribulation.

Even for those whose souls are severely damaged and fall into a deep sleep or even lose their memory, it can be used to awaken their consciousness.

What's more, if one can use the divine water to temper the body for a long time, it can wash away impurities and resentment in the soul, making the primordial spirit crystal clear and greatly increasing comprehension.

Even if swallowed by soul plants and Soul Beasts, it has the miraculous effect of ripening.

Such legendary heavenly treasures, every drop is enough to set off a bloody storm in the outside world.

Of course, treasures are good, but not everyone can bear them.

For cultivators who have not yet cultivated a primordial spirit, this Moonlight Divine Water is by no means a nourishing treasure, but a poisonous poison that cuts the intestines!

That majestic and pure Taiyin power is enough to instantly burst the soul body of a cultivator who has not cultivated a primordial spirit, causing them to end up with their soul flying away.

Hua Changxi thought of her current realm, which was far from being able to bear the Moonlight Divine Water, and the greed and impulse surging in her heart slowly subsided.

What's more, she didn't even have a container on her that could hold such divine water, so even if she wanted to take it, it would be in vain.

Apart from the impossibility of her own conditions, the external hidden dangers could not be ignored.

The Moonlight Divine Water is so precious, but there is not even a ghost shadow in this Soul River area except for her and the Soul Turtle, which is obviously very abnormal.

Hua Changxi looked up at the Taiyin Star close at hand above her head, showing a thoughtful expression.

That majestic star body pressure is by no means something ordinary cultivators can bear.

Now that she has stepped into the eighth level of body refining, just standing on the periphery covered by the moonlight waterfall makes her feel as heavy as a mountain. If she goes further in, that terrifying pressure will only increase exponentially.

If ordinary cultivators come, I am afraid that both the physical body and the primordial spirit will be crushed by gravity.

Hua Changxi glanced at the Soul Turtle under her, who looked quite relaxed, and thought to herself: It is estimated that only groups like the Soul Turtle, with thick skin and flesh and naturally strong defense, can barely move under the Taiyin Star.

"Master, there is nothing good to see about the Taiyin Star, let's go."

Although the Soul Turtle's defense is strong, it is still very uncomfortable to be under the star body pressure of the Taiyin Star for a long time.

Hua Changxi didn't want to leave just like that. Even if she couldn't get the Moonlight Divine Water, it would be good to learn more about the Taiyin Star.

"Wait a little longer. By the way, Little Turtle, can you get closer to the moonlight waterfall?"

"No!" The Soul Turtle shook its head like a rattle: "If I go further, Little Turtle will be beaten."

Hua Changxi's expression sharpened: "Beaten? Who will beat you?"

"The area covered by moonlight is the territory of the Moon Mirage and the Taiyin Dragon. Other creatures will die if they trespass!"

The Soul Turtle shrank its neck and whispered: "The Moon Mirage is extremely insidious, proficient in invisibility and illusion, and can make people lost in the moonlight illusion forever."

"The Taiyin Dragon is even more terrifying. It occupies the bottom of the river. A breath of moonlight can directly freeze the primordial spirit, and then a flick of its tail can smash the primordial spirit to pieces!"

"They are born to feed on Moonlight Divine Water and regard this river area as their territory. Dad and Mom don't dare to provoke them easily. Unless they are so greedy for Moonlight Divine Water that they can't stand it, they will never set foot here."

Upon hearing this, a chill suddenly ran down Hua Changxi's spine.

She should have thought of it; a place with such rich moonlight must breed extremely terrifying Soul Beasts.

The Soul Turtle continued to add: "In addition to the Moon Mirage and the Taiyin Dragon, the river section ahead is also very dangerous."

"Dad and Mom specifically warned that I am still too young and my body is not strong enough to withstand the impact of the soul waves."

"If I am unlucky enough to hit a whirlpool in the river, I will be crushed into powder instantly, leaving not even a residue!"

Feeling the Soul Turtle's fear, Hua Changxi decisively dismissed the idea of exploring deeper and instead said: "Since we can't go deep into the moonlight, let's just turn around the periphery."

The Soul Turtle was granted amnesty and obediently turned direction, swimming slowly along the edge of the moonlight light curtain.

Worried that this would also provoke the Moon Mirage and the Taiyin Dragon, to be on the safe side, Hua Changxi took out the soul bamboo leaf and began to play the soul ballad.

She now plays this tune as an avoidance song.

"Master, the tune you play is really nice!"

The Soul Turtle's originally tense little face relaxed, and its swimming movements became much lighter.

Feeling the Soul Turtle's relaxation, Hua Changxi played more and more attentively.

However, after several tunes, her brow suddenly furrowed slightly.

In front of the Soul River, there was a faint ensemble sound, as if someone was playing with her in secret.

"Little Turtle, did you hear any sound?"

Hua Changxi put down the soul bamboo leaf, her eyes vigilantly staring ahead.

The Soul Turtle tilted its head and listened for a long time, shaking its head blankly: "Except for the tune Master played and the sound of the river, I didn't hear any other movement."

Hua Changxi's heart was full of doubts. After pondering for a while, she couldn't resist the mysterious pull, pointed to the direction from which the melody came, and said in a low voice: "You swim to that side."

Seeing that Hua Changxi was letting it stay away from the area covered by moonlight, the Soul Turtle was naturally happy, and immediately paddled hard.

But after swimming for a while, Hua Changxi could no longer hear the melody.

The Soul River surface is vast and boundless, surrounded by vast river water. Without the guidance of the melody, it is impossible to distinguish the direction.

Helpless, Hua Changxi began to play the soul ballad again, and soon, the ensemble sound really rang out again.

But this time, the direction from which the melody came had clearly shifted!

Hua Changxi's heart sharpened, and she could only re-instruct the Soul Turtle to turn.

"Continue forward."

"To the left."

"To the right..."

Just like this, walking and stopping, turning around in the fog, after changing direction several times, the originally surging Soul River current suddenly slowed down.

Although the river section was calm, the soul mist around was thick and inseparable.

"Little Turtle, except for the tune I played, did you really not hear any other sound?"

Hua Changxi looked at the river section filled with soul mist and confirmed again.

"I didn't hear it, could it be that someone else is playing the tune?" The Soul Turtle looked blank.

Only she could hear it?

Hua Changxi's heart jumped, and her vigilance deepened: "Little Turtle, you know the Soul River better, do you think there will be danger in the soul mist?"

This stumped the Soul Turtle: "There shouldn't be, Dad and Mom took me through this river section, and we didn't encounter any danger."

Hua Changxi hesitated: "How about this, you swim over, don't go deep into the soul mist, let's just look at the periphery."

The Soul Turtle did as told.

After swimming for a distance, the Soul Turtle suddenly stretched its neck, its mung bean eyes full of surprise: "Eh? Master, look ahead!"

Hua Changxi had already seen it. In the river filled with soul mist ahead, a silver-white island stood abruptly.

The island was not big, surrounded by a circle of faint, translucent white soul light, appearing particularly quiet and strange in the surging Soul River water.

"There is actually an island in the Soul River?" Hua Changxi was very surprised.

She originally thought the Soul River was just a long river, not expecting that there was solid land in it.

"I haven't seen it either!"

The Soul Turtle paddled its limbs excitedly: "It's really strange, Dad and Mom also took me through here before, and we didn't find any island."

"Master, shall we go over and take a look?"

Hua Changxi's expression was solemn. At this moment, she could already be sure that the mysterious ensemble sound came from the island.

Are there creatures on the island?

And, the other party actually knows how to play the soul ballad. ===== CHAPTER 544 =====
