The Path to Becoming Immortal

Closer to home, Ye Lin was still very worried. After all, her younger brother was only a teenager, and after all, he was just a big kid.

But she didn't realize that she was actually only one year older than him, only sixteen.

"Hey! You have to be careful when you go down there tomorrow! It's too dangerous down there."

"Don't worry, I have enough strength now! My strength is almost the same as Brother Hong's!"

"Ouch, you kid is making trouble with me again! Going into the sea requires more than just strength, it also requires a strong enough body!"

As a voice came, a person walked in with a smile on his face from outside the small courtyard.

"Brother Hong, you're here! Sit down! I'll go out for a moment." Ye Lin smiled and said hello to the visitor, then walked out.

"Brother Hong!" Hearing the voice, Ye Zhuang stood up and went to meet him, pulling him to sit together.

Watching Ye Lin walking towards Ye Honggui's house, she couldn't help but feel a little excited. She must have wanted Tieniu to go to sea together.

Ye Honggui is the grandson of the village chief next door. He grew up with Ye Lin and Ye Hong, and is only a year or two older than them.

It was under the care of their family that the siblings settled in the small fishing village and settled down.

"You just said that you would take Tieniu into the sea with you tomorrow. Are you really lying? I always feel that it is not reliable..."

As Ye Honggui spoke, his eyes also fell on Tieniu, who was staring at the night sky.

"No problem. Grandpa and uncle both think it's okay. He's very strong, so it'll be fine for sure!"

Mentioning tomorrow's trip to the sea, Ye Zhuang instantly became energetic.

After discovering Tieniu last year, we discovered that in addition to his immense strength, his physical strength is also amazing, and he is almost invulnerable.

It would be a waste of money not to go to sea for such a good seedling. Ye Honggui's father and grandfather also thought so.

My sister went over to ask, and I'm afraid she would get a positive answer. Thinking of being able to go to the sea with Tieniu tomorrow, her heart became hot.

"Hmm, maybe Tieniu is good at getting into the sea. Besides, after this year, maybe you won't be as embarrassed as you were last year, haha!"

As Ye Honggui said this, he remembered the scene of going into the sea last year and laughed even more happily.

Regardless of how much older Ye Honggui is, he is actually a young boy at only eighteen years old, only two years older than Ye Lin.

"You also said, just wait for me, I have Iron Bull, and I will let you take a good look at it after tomorrow!"

Old Ye Zhuang blushed and vowed to avenge his shame this time.

The Qing Ling Pearl they collected from the sea is a good thing. It contains a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, which can be used for people's cultivation or refined into elixirs. It is very precious.

Qing Lingzhu is born from the body of a kind of sea clam called Qingmeng mussel in the deep sea. This is a giant sea clam, which is several feet in size and is also called Qingkezi.

But it's not that easy to collect Qingling Pearls.

On this fixed day every year, the green clam will go to the shallow sea to lay eggs and continue its offspring. This is also the only time to fish for the green pearl.

This kind of sea clam does not only appear in the deep sea, but the ones seen on the beach do not produce green spirit beads in their bodies.

Once the sea clam reaches maturity, it will sink into the deep sea and never appear again. Only in the deep sea, the Green Lingzhu will grow in the body of the green clam that reaches a certain size.

Moreover, the Qingling Pearl is only useful if it is directly peeled off in the deep sea.

That's because the powerful water pressure in the deep sea needs to be used. Once taken out, a hard shell will form on the surface of the Qing Ling Bead, sealing the medicinal power and the aura of heaven and earth within the bead.

After taking the Green Spirit Bead, the Green Meng Clam will not die because of it, and can continue to produce new Green Spirit Beads in the future.

In addition, the green clam is accustomed to the strong pressure in the deep sea. If it is taken out of the shallow sea, it will explode and die, so there is no way to cultivate it.

Some people have tried to cultivate it before, but they all ended in failure.

Also because Qingmeng mussel can only appear in this sea area, it has become the main source of income for people in this sea area.

Going into the sea is one of the essential skills for anyone living in a fishing village. The fishermen in this sea area are also called pearl divers.

"If Tieniu is really useful, that would be great! I heard from my father that this year is a once-in-a-century wave of green shell seeds. Everyone is working hard to make a windfall! Many people may not It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity.”

Ye Honggui kept looking at Tieniu, with a little excitement on his face.

For a few people, being able to go into the sea like adults is an exciting thing in itself.

"Yeah, I heard that too..."

Several people chatted excitedly for a long time, until Ye Honggui's family members urged them to rest reluctantly.

After a few people dispersed, only the iron bull under the eaves was left in the courtyard.

I saw that he was still staring forward motionless, but his eyes were not focused on any one place, and he was blank.

The next day, at dawn, the whole small fishing village became noisy.

The sun was shining brightly on this day, and the weather was as good as in previous years.

Amid firecrackers and thunderous drum music, a vigorous memorial ceremony began.

Hundreds of people from the entire village gathered in the small square in the center of the village.

Although there don't seem to be many people, the lively atmosphere is unambiguous at all.

There is a high platform in the center of the small square. At this time, there is a man on the high platform wearing a white robe with gold trim. This man has a gentle face and is looking at the grand event in front of him with a smile.

The respected village chief Ye Shoucheng and several elders stood respectfully on both sides of this person.

"Hey, Brother Hong, that's the immortal, right?" Ye Zhuang said excitedly in a corner below.

Of course, Ye Zhuang got what he wanted, and Tie Niu followed him into the sea today.

"Don't talk nonsense, immortals are not something you can comment on casually!" Ye Honggui on the side quickly reached out and covered Ye Zhuang's mouth tightly, fearing that he would continue to talk without thinking.

"Okay, I won't say anything! Other immortals will not care about us kids! Humph!"

Ye Zhuang finally pulled away the palm covering his mouth, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he saw Ye Honggui's hand was about to press it again.

"You........"

"Okay, I really won't say it!"

Seeing that Ye Zhuang really shut up and stopped talking about immortals, Ye Honggui stopped, and then looked at the man in the white robe with gold edges with excitement.

At this time, the village chief Ye Shoucheng straightened his clothes and walked to the center of the platform.

"Open the sea..."

With a shout, everyone cheered, and some people in gorgeous clothes around also smiled.

They were merchants who came to buy Qinglingzhu. For them, this was also a feast.

After the village chief Ye Shoucheng's ups and downs congratulations, everyone rushed to the seaside.

Ye Zhuang and Ye Lin pulled the dull-looking Tie Niu and rushed to their own sampans, paddling hard into the depths of the sea.
