Chapter 198
“Their auras are so strong. They are all at the Golden Core stage!”
“So many Golden Cores! The Northern Sea Clan is incredibly strong. I’m glad I never ventured deep into the ocean for hunting.”
In Linhai City, many Northern Territory cultivators below the Golden Core stage were stunned by the Sea Clan’s wedding procession. The Golden Core cultivators in this procession alone had reached one thousand!
One thousand Golden Cores!
The Northern Territory indeed had a fair number of Golden Core cultivators. Water Moon Sect had over twenty, Azure Dawn Sect had over fifty, and there were also more than twenty Golden Cores among the unaffiliated cultivators. When they added them all up, it came to several hundred Golden Cores. However, they still couldn’t match the Sea Clan’s numbers. Just from the group presented, there were already one thousand Golden Cores. In addition to these one thousand Golden Cores, there were a staggering fifty Nascent Soul cultivators in the wedding procession.
The Sea Clan had invested heavily in this event, displaying a formidable presence. Among the Sea Clan members, there were indeed many at the fourth tier, which was the Nascent Soul stage. The Mermaid Clan alone had more than ten Nascent Souls, and other Sea Clan groups had even more. For example, the numerous and powerful Snake folk Clan had nearly 20 Nascent Souls among them.
While the Auger People Clan might be relatively sparse in numbers, with the entire Northern Sea having perhaps fewer than a thousand members, they had the highest number of Nascent Souls and even more than one Nascent Divinity. Fifty Nascent Souls represented a significant portion of the Northern Sea Clan’s Nascent Souls, more than half of their total count.
In terms of quantity, there were more than double the number of Nascent Souls in the Northern Territory compared to before.
If the Northern Territory hadn’t lost its talents to the sacred grounds and had cultivated Nascent Souls at the same rate, they might have been able to catch up to the Northern Sea Clan in terms of numbers. However, it was evident that a considerable margin had surpassed them.
“So many Sea Clan members at the fourth tier!” The Nascent Souls from the Northern Territory couldn’t help but be astonished when they saw the multitude of Nascent Souls among the Sea Clan. They hadn’t anticipated the Northern Sea Clan’s formidable strength. This only emphasized Li Su’s exceptional abilities.
Despite the strength of the Northern Sea Clan, Li Su had managed to marry a Sea Clan Nascent Divinity queen after the battle at Azure Dawn Sect. He also convinced the Sea Clan to provide such an extensive wedding procession. This was indeed an extraordinary achievement.
“Senior Li is simply divine!” Some cultivators couldn’t help but think. They couldn’t help but admire Li Su. In the eyes of all the Northern Territory cultivators, the Sea Clan’s wedding procession entered Linhai City, and the grand wedding began. It was a magnificent event, even though it wasn’t overly elaborate.
“Wow~”
When Bai Ling made her appearance, it left many cultivators in awe. Some of the lower-cultivated cultivators even couldn’t help but exclaim softly. Today, Bai Ling was simply stunning. She was wearing the phoenix headdress and coronet that Li Su had designed for her, and her extraordinary beauty was similar to a celestial being descending to the mortal world. Her grace and beauty made her seem almost otherworldly, far from being an earthly being.
On this day, Bai Ling didn’t change her tail into legs. She retained her mermaid tail. The tail had specially designed clothing that made it appear like she was wearing a mermaid-style skirt, giving her an air of elegance and uniqueness. This version of Bai Ling was still a Nascent Divinity cultivator, and she was also the queen of the Mermaid Clan.
The moment she appeared, it was right to say that the entire venue fell silent. Countless Northern Territory cultivators were envious of Li Su. Li Su had managed to marry such a stunning, noble, and powerful Mermaid queen!
This wedding was destined to be a topic of discussion among Northern Territory cultivators for a long time to come. For the Northern Territory, this is a historic wedding because it marked the beginning of a new era for the region.
Even at the height of their power tens of thousands of years ago, the relationship between the Northern Territory and the Northern Sea Clan had never been so harmonious, let alone involving such extensive communication and trade. But now, despite the history of conflict between the two regions, Li Su managed to resolve the hostility single-handedly and also bring back a beautiful queen. After this wedding, Li Su’s prestige in the Northern Territory reached an extremely high point.
After the wedding, Li Su publicly announced the news of future trade with the Northern Sea Clan. This announcement excited many Northern Territory cultivators. There were plenty of valuable resources in the sea, but the ocean was also exceptionally dangerous. Cultivators with lower cultivation levels were often hesitant to venture into the sea. Trading with the Sea Clan had beautifully resolved this issue. Many cultivators realized that for the Northern Territory, a new landscape and era were likely about to unfold. This was the era of Li Su.
“Bai Ling~”
On their wedding night, although Li Su and Bai Ling had been together countless times before, and Bai Ling had already given birth to a child for Li Su, their wedding night still brought a different kind of experience for both. After this wedding night, unique treasures and rare items from the ocean began to appear in Linhai City from time to time.
The current grade of these rare treasures and exotic goods wasn’t particularly high, mainly below the Nascent Soul stage. After all, most of the cultivators who came to Linhai City were below the Nascent Soul stage. With the appearance of these items from the Northern Sea, a new era was unfolding in the Northern Territory.
Trade had begun between the Northern Territory and the Northern Sea Clan. This trade not only benefited the Northern Territory but also held substantial advantages for the Sea Clan. Of course, Li Su’s Li family was one of the most significant beneficiaries as well.
