Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World
Chapter 364 - 210: Red Whale Daoist Ran Away, Easily Crossing the Tribulation
CHAPTER 364: CHAPTER 210: RED WHALE DAOIST RAN AWAY, EASILY CROSSING THE TRIBULATION
"Nascent Soul Spiritual Object?"
Upon sensing this information, Jiang Fan’s eyes flickered.
Like those loose cultivators, he too felt a sense of impending doom.
After all, it was indeed beneficial that Red Whale Daoist and his daughter, Yu Ruolin, had obtained the Nascent Soul spiritual object.
It might provide an opportunity to promote to Nascent Soul in the future.
But if they couldn’t keep it safe, everything would be for naught.
They might even be besieged by numerous Golden Core Zhenren.
Then, as a member of Red Whale Island’s influence, he would inevitably be affected.
He hadn’t expected that, having just left the Yiling Secret Realm not long ago, disaster would strike again.
Boom~~
Right at that moment, Jiang Fan perceived the Fortune-Telling Talisman deep within the Elixir Field and Sea of Qi starting to vibrate as if communicating with the heavens, and a stream of information instantly penetrated into the depths of his Sea of Consciousness.
"Nascent Soul Spiritual Object, clouds move in all directions, chaos center, remain unmoved."
"Escape from the Red Whale Island Sea Region, a rootless duckweed, may encounter disaster, doom."
"Betray Red Whale Island influence, join other Golden Core influences, great doom."
"Remain on Fire Copper Island, maintain the status quo, gain nothing, obtain nothing, peace."
What?!
Sensing this information, Jiang Fan’s eyes gleamed with a trace of brilliance.
Clearly, in the face of this sudden disaster, the Fortune-Telling Talisman still gave plenty of informational hints.
Undeniably, Red Whale Daoist obtaining the Nascent Soul spiritual object would plunge this sea region into massive chaos.
But he couldn’t stop such a thing.
After all, no Golden Core Zhenren would ever relinquish a Nascent Soul spiritual object.
In the face of this disaster, he currently has only three choices.
The first, naturally, is to escape the Red Whale Island Sea Region and stay away from the center of the disaster.
Obviously, this choice is not very wise.
Once he leaves the Red Whale Island Sea Region without a new destination, he becomes like a rootless duckweed, thus possibly encountering other disasters.
After all, the Yiling Secret Realm just closed, and many cultivators gained opportunities inside.
Although it’s unlikely that conflicts between influences will occur at this time, attacks between Foundation Establishment Cultivators are still common, and he might even be targeted by a Tribulation Cultivator.
If he goes elsewhere, he might encounter covetous cultivators, thus facing great disaster.
He might even be targeted by Golden Core Zhenren.
The second choice is, of course, to betray Red Whale Island and join other Golden Core influences.
But then, he would completely anger Red Whale Daoist and become a dead enemy of Red Whale Island’s influence.
Clearly, this choice is more dangerous than the first, already a sign of great doom.
Making such a choice is indeed tantamount to courting death.
Moreover, even if he does join another Golden Core influence, it’s highly unlikely he’ll be valued.
Such a traitor is unpopular wherever he goes.
"Thus, staying put, remaining on Fire Copper Island, seems to be the most correct choice."
Jiang Fan stroked his chin.
Though staying on Fire Copper Island means gaining nothing and obtaining nothing, in this world, not every choice necessarily brings great rewards.
Sometimes, safety is actually the greatest gain, the biggest benefit.
Even without opportunities, it is entirely insignificant as long as he can cultivate steadily and peacefully; that would suffice.
"But why is staying on Fire Copper Island the best choice?"
"Could it be that other Golden Core influences dare not invade Red Whale Island?"
Jiang Fan was quite curious about this.
He reckoned that other Golden Core Zhenren dared not attack, which was also understandable.
After all, Red Whale Daoist and his daughter are not easy to deal with.
They had previously killed three Golden Core Zhenren, proving their formidable battle prowess.
Other Golden Core Zhenren, if they come, need to measure their weight.
One careless move, and they might be taken away by Red Whale Daoist.
So if those Golden Core Zhenren dare not come, it’s not impossible.
But what would truly happen still needs time to be seen.
"Husband."
"I’ve heard that Red Whale Island is about to face great disaster; is it true?"
At that moment, Su Weiwei seems to have also heard some news, returning from outside.
"Indeed, there could be issues."
Jiang Fan nodded.
"If so, should we leave here?"
Su Weiwei asked curiously.
Though reluctant to leave Fire Copper Island, if it were too risky to stay, she’d rather not die here.
"No need for now, Fire Copper Island is still quite safe."
"Let’s wait and watch the developments."
Jiang Fan reassured.
"Okay."
Hearing this, Su Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief, as long as her husband said so, there would certainly be no problem.
"Foolish."
"Knowing that other Golden Core influences might invade, yet staying here?"
"Do you plan to die with Red Whale Island?"
The Ten Thousand Transformations Pill Furnace was puzzled.
Clearly, this owner is very timid and cautious, and would flee at the slightest anomaly.
But now, he hasn’t escaped and remains instead, which is truly baffling.
"What do you know."
"Running away isn’t always the best choice."
Jiang Fan said indifferently.
"This."
The Ten Thousand Transformations Pill Furnace was momentarily speechless, not knowing what to say.
However, over these years, the owner’s decisions have never been wrong.
What this time would be like remains unknown.
...
Several days later.
Jiang Fan obtained a shocking piece of news from Red Whale Island, that Red Whale Daoist and her daughter Yu Ruolin had quietly left Red Whale Island.
