"Stop talking nonsense, quickly refine the Water Tempering!"
"Alright, let's begin!"
Xia Liu sat down cross-legged.
As his Divine Sense surged, the jade bottle containing the Water Tempering appeared in front of him.
With the Five Elents Mantra in full swing, Xia Liu swallowed the Water Tempering in one gulp.
The mont the Water Tempering entered his mouth,
Xia Liu felt like he was not drinking a mouthful of water,
but an entire vast ocean!
He suffocated instantly!
An unbearable sense of expansion surged through his lungs.
Such overwhelming pressure disoriented him for a mont.
Fortunately, as he reached his limit,
a light emanated from his Sea of Consciousness.
This light enveloped the Water Tempering flowing into his ridians,
guiding it into the Sea of Consciousness.
Xia Liu seized the opportunity to push this force with his Spiritual Energy,
ushering it quickly into the Sea of Consciousness.
As the roulette manifested,
the Water Tempering was successfully pushed into the blue slot.
As the exotic force on the roulette refined the Water Tempering,
the second bar of the blue slot was directly broken!
This signified Xia Liu's Water Origin reaching the second tier!
"Hmm, why does the Five Elents Wheel seem sowhat strange compared to before?"
With this thought, Xia Liu carefully examined the wheel.
But he couldn't find anything amiss.
After an unsuccessful search, Xia Liu's consciousness withdrew from the Sea of Consciousness.
As the Five Elents Wheel concealed itself, it flickered with a black and white slot.
There was no force within.
Yet its presence intimidated the other five slots.
As if in fear.
But the Five Elents Wheel has neither consciousness nor life.
So what's the matter? Only ti will reveal it to Xia Liu.
"Sigh..."
Xia Liu retracted the Seal Decree, taking a deep breath to calm himself.
"Is it done?"
"I've successfully refined the Water Tempering, but I haven't yet elevated my Water Spirit Energy into force."
"That can be refined gradually later. There's not much ti left before the closure at the shores of the North Sea. If you're interested, you can check out the Ancient Battlefield. If you happen to find so treasures or precious Spirit Grass, that would be great."
White Jue made a suggestion that Xia Liu had already considered.
Right on cue, they both agreed.
Xia Liu followed White Jue's directions, heading towards the largest battlefield at the shores of the North Sea.
In ancient tis, the four realms were in constant strife.
For domains, for resources, for holands; battle after battle left devastated battlefields behind.
Strange spaces filled with heaps of Dharma Treasures and rivers of blood.
Over thousands or even tens of thousands of years of cleansing.
The Spiritual Artifacts and High-Rank Techniques left from the Ancient Battlefields are already extrely scarce.
Back then, when the four realms restored peace and jointly resisted demons,
those Low-Rank sects and families that showed excellence were allowed to scavenge for treasures in the battlefields.
Now finding so precious Spirit Grass on the battlefield is considered very lucky.
As for Storage Bags, Storage Rings, or Spiritual Artifacts,
it's a matter of pure luck.
"The Liang Family was lucky back in the day, picking up a Storage Bag containing so High-Rank Cultivation Techniques and Techniques. After a hundred years of patience, they made a na in Flowing Fla County."
Recalling the experience of entering the shores of the North Sea centuries ago, Bai Jue rembered vividly.
It's a pity, the descendants of that person, one by one, are arrogant, leading to their impending downfall.
"Haha, I've always had good luck. Wonder if I can find a couple of High-Rank Spiritual Artifacts!"
"Ha! Haha!"
White Jue laughed.
This guy probably thinks Spiritual Artifacts are as common as cabbages, ready to be picked up anyti.
"Xia Liu, I'm not trying to dampen your spirits, but sothing as precious as a Spiritual Artifact is not even possessed by so ordinary Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, so don't expect to find one here. Even if there were, they'd have long been taken."
"Are Spiritual Artifacts really that rare?"
Xia Liu asked in confusion.
He had never asked this question before.
"Of course they're precious. If not for this bag concealing the aura of the Taiqing Sword, you'd have been surrounded by a group of Nascent Soul cultivators walking down the street with such confidence."
"It seems I must not reveal the Taiqing Sword in front of too many people in the future!"
Xia Liu previously believed that the Taiqing Sword was the foremost of the four major Spiritual Artifacts in the Southern Realm.
That's why it needed to be hidden.
But now, with White Jue saying that Spiritual Artifacts are extrely rare in the Cultivation Realm.
That's not just forcing him to hide it securely.
"Ahem, it's not that severe. While Spiritual Artifacts are a great help to Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, with your talents and a Supre-Grade Spiritual Artifact, many won't dare target you."
"Oh? Are they worried I have a formidable force behind ?"
"Exactly! To reach the Nascent Soul Stage, one's heart is terribly shrewd. Just be careful; there's no need to completely abstain."
"I understand that. Let's head to the Ancient Battlefield first and see if we find any unexpected treasures!"
Xia Liu was keen on visiting the battlefield.
After all, it's a battlefield from ancient tis.
It must be grand and spectacular.
As Xia Liu approached the largest ancient battlefield within the North Sea shores using Sword Control,
in this vast and boundless ancient battlefield,
five people hurriedly hid within a cave.
On the bleak, blood-colored land filled with hostility,
a giant Demon Wolf with three heads was sucking air greedily.
Previously, five humans intruded into its domain.
It had not tasted fresh food for a long ti.
Confronted with human flesh,
it could not hold back.
"We're dood, we're dood!"
Within the cave, Zhou Yan was restless.
She had suffered from a condition since childhood,
unable to stay in confined spaces for long.
The longer she stayed, the more fearful her heart beca, and the more her Soul felt uneasy.
"Sister, hang in there. This three-headed Demon Wolf has Golden Core strength. Now that Elder Zhou is injured, we must wait until it leaves to show ourselves!"
Zhou Ji was well-aware of Zhou Yan's condition.
He knew his sister couldn't hold on for long in such an environnt.
But this ti, for everyone's safety,
she had to endure.
"I have a plan. Later, I'll perform the secret technique to elevate my Energy Body to Half-Step Golden Pill Stage. You four leave quickly, and I'll catch up."
"Elder Zhou, even at a ti like this, you're still thinking of us."
Zhou Ji had long understood.
Elder Zhou wasn't planning to stay behind as a rear guard.
But wanted to use his life to trade for their safety.
"These old bones of mine are about done. You all have obtained the Millennial Blood Ganoderma. When combined with other resources after returning, you might successfully reach Foundation Establishnt with unlimited future potential. Sacrificing myself to achieve you all, no regrets for this old one!"
"Elder Zhou, why don't you consu the Blood Ganoderma? By then, your Energy Body will surely advance further!"
Zhou Ji proposed.
"It's useless; I know my own body! That's the decision: I'll cover the rear, and you leave quickly!"
"No! Elder Zhou, I disagree with your decision!"
Zhou Yan mourned.
"Alas...if only Xia Liu were here, maybe he would have a solution."
"Brother Xia... he can slay an Early-Stage Golden Core Flood Dragon, but this Demon Wolf is clearly stronger than that Flood Dragon..."
Zhou Yan didn't wish for Xia Liu's appearance, as it could cost him his life.
Bang!
Just as Zhou Ji wanted to speak, a muffled sound ca from outside the cave.
