Record of a Demon's Cultivation-Chapter 464: Sheep Island
Chapter 464 - Sheep Island
Translator: Cinder Translations
---
Over a month later, Song Wen arrived at Wu Ji Island.
Wu Ji Island itself was not very large, about two to three thousand miles in diameter.
Surrounding Wu Ji Island were numerous smaller islands, all under the jurisdiction of Wu Ji Island.
Song Wen arrived at the heart of Wu Ji Island—Shadow City.
This was the place where inner disciples of Wu Ji Island practiced, and it was also the largest market for goods on Wu Ji Island and the nearby island chain.
Song Wen walked through the bustling streets, observing the various spiritual items for sale in the many shops.
In Shadow City, all sorts of demonic materials could be found everywhere, including many third-tier spiritual items.
Compared to the righteous sects like Fang City, the demonic sects acted more freely, without many rules or restrictions. Any unusable spiritual items could be sold.
This meant that Wu Ji Island had less control over high-tier spiritual items, which was beneficial for loose cultivators.
After passing through the market, Song Wen arrived at the true center of power on Wu Ji Island—Corpse King Valley.
Corpse King Valley was about several dozen miles wide, with a terrifying aura of death and corpse Qi swirling throughout.
The valley was barren, with no plants or trees, only a chilling and lifeless atmosphere.
Around the valley were small mountains, which housed the inner disciples' residences. Outsiders were forbidden from ascending these mountains.
Inside the valley were the various institutions of Wu Ji Island.
After entering the valley, Song Wen walked for a while and arrived in front of a black building. The building was labeled with three large characters: "External Affairs Hall."
The External Affairs Hall had three floors, each corresponding to the three cultivation realms: Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, and Golden Core.
Song Wen went straight to the third floor. While the first floor was crowded, the third floor was quiet and empty, with only a young Foundation Establishment cultivator lying on a desk, half-asleep.
Upon noticing Song Wen's arrival, the young cultivator quickly scanned him with his spiritual sense, and his expression immediately became respectful.
"Younger disciple Jing Kai greets senior."
Song Wen had only slightly altered his appearance and did not hide his cultivation level. He directly revealed his Golden Core early-stage cultivation.
His experiences on Fangzhudao had shown him that cultivators at different levels had their own circles.
To quickly improve his cultivation and strength, Song Wen needed various third-tier spiritual medicines and materials.
If he disguised himself as a Foundation Establishment cultivator, he would be safer, but many third-tier spiritual items would be out of his reach.
Song Wen wore a slight expression of arrogance, nodded, and spoke.
Demonic cultivators were often arrogant and dismissive of lower-level cultivators.
Since he was in demonic territory, Song Wen decided to go with the flow.
Appearing humble might attract unnecessary attention and trouble.
Jing Kai asked, "Senior seems unfamiliar to me. May I ask, is this your first time at Wu Ji Island?"
Song Wen replied, "Indeed. I am a loose cultivator from the Eastern Sea Region. I've long heard of Wu Ji Island's great reputation, and I've always admired it. However, the vast sea and numerous obstacles prevented me from coming until after I reached the Golden Core realm, so I could finally visit this holy land of the demonic path."
Jing Kai looked surprised. "So, you came from the Eastern Sea Region? My master once mentioned that Fangzhudao in the Eastern Sea is also a blessed cultivation land, abundant with spiritual energy and opportunities."
"Fangzhudao is indeed rich in spiritual resources," Song Wen replied. "But that is speaking from the perspective of the righteous sect. The Xing family on Fangzhudao severely suppresses demonic cultivators like us."
Song Wen then asked, "May I ask who your master is?"
A proud glint flashed in Jing Kai's eyes. "My master is Yu Qi."
Yu Qi was a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator and a registered disciple of Wu Ji Island's Yin Shuo.
Before entering the valley, Song Wen had gathered some information about Wu Ji Island to avoid being completely blind.
"I see, so you're a disciple of the demonic sect. It seems I was blind," Song Wen said.
He immediately became warmer towards Jing Kai.
"The Demon Lord has not officially accepted my master into the sect, so I am not yet considered a disciple of the Demon Lord," Jing Kai said, though his tone was modest, his expression revealing a sense of pride.
Song Wen flipped his hand, producing two jade bottles and handing them to Jing Kai.
"It's our first meeting. This is just a small token of my appreciation. I hope you don't mind."
The bottles contained Five-Spirit Pills, which were used by Foundation Establishment cultivators in the Chaotic Sea to enhance their cultivation. Each bottle contained fifteen pills, with a total value of approximately 2,500 spirit stones. These pills were ones that Song Wen had created when he first arrived at Fang City to familiarize himself with the pill-making techniques of the Chaotic Sea.
Jing Kai was momentarily stunned, clearly not expecting a Golden Core cultivator like Song Wen to give him a gift.
"I can't accept such a gift. How could I take something from you, senior?"
Song Wen smiled faintly and directly placed the jade bottles in Jing Kai's hands.
"These are just some Five-Spirit Pills I made myself. You needn't refuse. Besides, I've already advanced to Golden Core. These pills are no longer useful to me."

"In that case, I will accept it with gratitude. Thank you for the gift, senior."
Jing Kai gladly accepted the pills, his face showing delight.
"May I ask for your honored name, senior?"
"Ji Yin."
"Greetings, Senior Ji Yin," Jing Kai bowed.
Then, he took out a sea map, infused it with spiritual energy, and the map suddenly enlarged, becoming thirty feet long and wide, floating in the air.
"Senior, please take a look. This is a map of the islands around Wu Ji Island. Within a radius of one hundred thousand miles, there are thousands of islands. These islands are divided into three categories: 'Heaven,' 'Earth,' and 'Human.' As a Golden Core cultivator, you may choose a 'Heaven-grade' island as your territory."
Song Wen looked at the map and saw that the east, south, and west of Wu Ji Island were dotted with thousands of islands, large and small.
The islands were marked in three colors: black, white, and gold. Most of the islands had names, though some did not.
"The islands with names have already been occupied, while the unnamed ones are temporarily vacant," Jing Kai explained.
Song Wen pointed to the northern part of the map and asked curiously:
"This island is so large, could it also be vacant?"
In the northern part of Wu Ji Island, there was only one island, a vast one, measuring at least two hundred thousand miles.
The map did not indicate the name of this island.
A smile appeared on Jing Kai's face.
"That is Sheep Island."
"Sheep Island? An island for raising sheep?" Song Wen asked, puzzled.
Jing Kai nodded, "Exactly. But this 'sheep' is not what you think. The island raises 'two-legged sheep.'"
Song Wen furrowed his brow. He had not expected that Sheep Island was used for raising humans.
Jing Kai continued to explain.
"Sheep Island is vast, with flat terrain, but its spiritual energy is quite sparse. It's not an ideal place for cultivators to practice, but it's perfect for human life and reproduction. The entire island is home to millions of 'two-legged sheep.' Senior, you must remember that the airspace above Sheep Island and its vicinity is a restricted area for cultivators. You must never trespass."
"A restricted area for cultivators?"
This was the first time Song Wen had heard this term.
Jing Kai nodded. "Except for the shepherds and others working on the island, no one is allowed to set foot on Sheep Island. No cultivation methods, magical tools, or pills are permitted. Nothing related to cultivation is allowed."
"Why is that?" Song Wen inquired.
"It's to keep the 'two-legged sheep' ignorant and foolish, to let them live without knowing anything, generation after generation, breeding continuously to provide us cultivators with an endless supply of blood and souls. They think their lives are full of hope, believing that Sheep Island is the entirety of the world. It's truly laughable."
