Cultivation begins in Qingfeng Market.

The Great Five Elements Sword Technique requires a large amount of external spiritual energy, making it unusable at the bottom of the sea.

Lin Zhao immediately used the Three Fiends Sword Technique.

The Blood Fiend Sword Qi is blood red, the Earth Fiend Sword Qi is deep black and heavy, and the Heaven Fiend Sword Qi is pure white and sharp.

The three types of sword energy travel through the water, encountering slightly greater resistance than in the outside world, but the impact is minimal.

The blood-red sword energy collided with the bronze bell, and the sword energy corroded the bronze bell as if it were alive.

The spiritual light of the bronze bell dimmed layer by layer. After a few breaths, the sword energy pierced through the bell, and the bronze bell emitted a muffled sound, losing all its spiritual light.

The Earthly Fiend Sword Qi struck the flying sword magic weapon, and the flying sword was directly suppressed by the Earthly Fiend Sword Qi. The sword body bent on the spot, and the spiritual light shattered.

The Heavenly Fiend Sword Qi rushed straight towards the late-stage Core Formation cultivator, who then summoned his Thunder Hammer to block it in front of his chest.

The lightning on the hammerhead collided with the arc of electricity from the Heavenly Fiend Sword Qi, creating a blinding white light.

But the Heavenly Fiend Sword Qi is not only lightning, it also contains the power of wind and ice.

The extremely cold and sharp Heavenly Fiend Power rebounded back along with the lightning, freezing and shattering the lightning on the hammerhead. The sword energy, undiminished in momentum, pierced through the hammer and passed through the man's chest.

Blood Fiend breaks through defenses, Earth Fiend shatters treasures, and Heaven Fiend slays people. The combined sword energies of the three fiends annihilated the three Core Formation cultivators in less than half an incense stick's time.

Lin Zhao put away the three people's storage bags and continued deeper into the rift.

Another month has passed.

The spiritual energy map has been drawn up to seven layers, and the flow of spiritual energy in the dojos near the Heavenly Wrath is becoming increasingly clear to him.

He could see the spiritual energy radiating outward from the core area, like a spider web, with the main wreckage of the Skywrath at its center.

The closer to the center, the denser the spiritual energy and the more concentrated the remnants of the restrictions.

There are also several nodes on the periphery with abnormally high spiritual energy concentrations, which are key locations to investigate.

During this period, the number of cultivators in the vicinity increased significantly.

The core area has been discovered—it is said that the main wreckage of the Skywreck is located in the deepest part of that sea area, sealed by layers of fourth-order array restrictions.

Many Core Formation cultivators rushed over, some hoping to break the formation, others hoping to scavenge for loot in the surrounding area.

Lin Zhao is not in a hurry to go.

The difference between a Core Formation cultivator and a Nascent Soul cultivator is enormous. A fourth-order formation or restriction is not easy to break. Even if he possessed a fourth-order magic weapon, he couldn't guarantee he could break it.

Even if he could break it, the commotion would be too great. After breaking the array and restrictions, his magic power would be severely depleted. How would he face the demons and monsters that followed?

He decided to take advantage of the time when all the Core Formation cultivators had gone to the core area to search for treasures.

First, find the treasures on the outer perimeter and secure them.

Lin Zhao found a low hill, located in a very remote area, hundreds of miles from the core region. The hill was unremarkable.

The flow of spiritual energy around them was also very stable, without any abnormalities.

However, the results derived from the Heavenly Heart Dharma Wheel told him that this was the most core spiritual energy node on the outer perimeter, and the things inside were probably no less valuable than the treasures in the core area.

Lin Zhao found a fissure completely covered by coral at the foot of the low hill. After opening the coral fissure,

He walked down the crevice for thousands of feet, and the crevice widened as he walked, until finally it opened up into a bright and clear space.

Inside the mountain is a natural cave, where crystals on the cave walls emit a faint blue light, casting the entire cave in a deep blue hue.

A fragment was suspended in the center of the cave.

To be precise, it was a piece of wreckage that broke off from the Skywrath Mighty when it crashed.

It was about thirty feet long and ten feet wide. Although the wood was a third-grade spiritual material, after three thousand years, the surface was covered with countless fine cracks and it was no longer useful.

The most important fragment is inlaid with a spirit-gathering pool.

Tier 3 Supreme Spirit Gathering Pool

The pool is octagonal, with densely packed runes engraved on each side, and tiny streams of spiritual light slowly flowing within the runes.

This spirit-gathering pool should be one of the auxiliary spirit-gathering pools for power supply on the Skywrath Might.

The main spirit pool of the Heavenly Wrath is of the fourth tier and should currently be located in the core area.

Although the pool has countless cracks, the core array runes are not damaged much and remain largely intact.

Although the Spirit Gathering Pool has exhausted the spiritual energy it stored back then, it is still a top-grade third-tier magic treasure.

It can still absorb the surrounding spiritual energy on its own, forming a hidden barrier with the surrounding natural environment, thus concealing its aura.

If it weren't for the Heavenly Heart Falun's deduction that the spiritual energy flow here was abnormal, he really wouldn't have been able to find it.

This magic weapon can only be disassembled into third-tier spiritual materials for ordinary Core Formation cultivators to sell, but not for Lin Zhao.

His Nine Luminaries Thunder Pool is in need of materials to upgrade its rank, and it can be used directly after being dismantled.

Lin Zhao carefully peeled off the Spirit Gathering Pool and put it into his storage bag.

He nodded; he'd been having really good luck lately.

Just when I was about to upgrade the Nine Luminaries Thunder Pool, the materials came to me on their own.

Lin Zhao turned and left.

------

What he didn't know was that the moment he removed the Spirit Gathering Pool,

In the core area of ​​the fourth-tier sea ship, the Skyfury, a gray figure suddenly opened its eyes.

The gray-robed man sat cross-legged amidst layers of restrictions, surrounded by a thin layer of light that blocked all external detection.

Although the Spirit Gathering Pool has been abandoned, it is still one of the important spiritual energy nodes that maintain the operation of the dojo.

The moment Lin Zhao dismantled the Spirit Gathering Pool, he immediately sensed it.

The man in the gray robe stood up and stepped out of the core area.

The fourth-order restriction posed no obstacle to him, and he easily passed through it.

He silently passed through the shipwreck and arrived above the low hill.

Then they bumped right into Lin Zhao, who was coming out of the low hill.

The moment Lin Zhao saw the figure, he froze.

He wore a long gray robe, and the hood covered most of his face, leaving only a pale chin visible.

The other party hovered above the low mountain, and the seawater automatically avoided him.

The gray-robed man raised his hand, and a gray restriction spread from his hand, silently covering the sea area within a radius of several miles.

The moment the barrier was formed, the surrounding seawater was shut out, and the sound disappeared. The vicinity instantly turned into a barrier cage.

Lin Zhao's heart sank instantly.

He is not a Core Formation cultivator.

That level of pressure is something even the most advanced Core Formation cultivators can't achieve.

It's a Nascent Soul True Lord!

The only uncertainty now is whether this gray-robed man is a Nascent Soul cultivator or a Dharma Body.

If it is the Dharmakaya, then there is still a sliver of room for maneuver.

If it's the real thing, you're not leaving today.

No wonder I'm so lucky today.

First, they acquired spiritual objects one after another.

Then came the third-tier top-grade magic treasure, the Spirit Gathering Pool.

It turned out they had encountered someone fishing and had baited the area.

The so-called fourth-order shipwreck, including this spirit-gathering pool, were all deliberately arranged by him.

Ordinary third-tier spiritual items don't matter; take them freely, since you can get them back in the end anyway.

But this spirit-gathering pool is different; it disguises and maintains the most important spiritual energy node of the dojo.

You can't make any sudden movements; if you do, the other side will know immediately.

It's really dark, those so-called relics.

There are fishermen everywhere.

Lin Zhao had no choice but to bite the bullet and bow respectfully, saying, "Senior."
