Crushing a Golden Core, the Greater Yin Sha Qi Crystal

Mu Yunxue did not go to check the place where the fight took place. In her opinion, since Lu Yang was not in danger, there was no need for her to go there. She might as well continue searching for the Metal Vein Stone.

Fortunately, she now possesses the Geng Metal Spirit Physique, which allows her to detect precious ores, so she should be able to find them relatively easily.

She entered from a bad spot with not much gold ore. It wasn't long before she found this area, and she should be able to find Metal Vein Stones soon.

Forest and lake, in the air.

Metal Spirit Cloud-Piercing Finger strikes land in the area where the rotting man was, causing black smoke to billow and shatter under the golden light.

After this attack, Lu Yang did not stop. He flipped his hand and a long sword appeared in his hand. The long sword was golden in color, and complex Runes were engraved on the blade and hilt.

Supreme-Grade Law Treasure, the Mystic Metal Light-Splitting Sword.

This was not something Lu Yang obtained from the system himself, but Supreme-Grade Law Treasure from the Myriad Manifestations Merchant Alliance's treasure vault.

He kept it and used it reluctantly.

For his current level of cultivation, using Supreme-Grade Law Treasure is just right.

If he were to use Spirit Treasure, his Divine Sense and Spiritual Qi would be somewhat insufficient.

On the contrary, Supreme-Grade Law Treasures can unleash his strongest power within the range of his Divine Sense and Spiritual Qi.

As Lu Yang's Spiritual Qi circulated, sharp Sword-Ray shot out from the Mystic Metal Light-Splitting Sword.

Hundreds of Sword-Ray condensed into a golden river of Sword Dao, shooting towards the area where the Metal Spirit Cloud-Piercing Finger collided.

Five breaths passed before the residual effects of the Metal Spirit Cloud-Piercing Finger gradually dissipated, and the golden light dimmed. Only then did Lu Yang stop activating the magic Law Treasure.

Soon, the River of Sword Dao also disappeared.

In the sky, everything calmed down, and a broken body appeared—it was the rotting man.

However, at this moment, the rotting man's entire body resembled a rag doll, with not a single part intact.

His legs were severed at the root, his right hand disappeared without a trace, and only half of his left arm remained.

His chest cavity was pierced by several large holes, and you could even see his back.

Black liquid flowed from his wound and dripped slowly.

The decaying man's aura was much weaker than before, having fallen from the Golden Core Realm to the Foundation Establishment Perfection stage.

Even with such severe injuries, this rotting man's understanding of the Principle was still far stronger than that of a normal Foundation Establishment Perfection their cultivation.

However, Lu Yang is not a normal Foundation Establishment Realm. Even before, Lu Yang was able to suppress this rotting man, let alone now.

The rotting man's eyes still held a ferocious, bloodthirsty glint, his mouth was torn open, revealing gleaming white teeth, and from within the black smoke, countless skeletal hands materialized, reaching out to grab Lu Yang.

He seemed completely unaware of his own weakness, nor of the severity of his injuries.

Lu Yang was not surprised by this.

The rotting man appeared to have only a sliver of Divine Sense left, and his intelligence had likely been completely extinguished.

Seeing the rotting man attack again, Lu Yang remained expressionless. He cast another Technique Method, and giant golden fingers pressed down, landing on the wounded, rotting man.

The roar resumed.

This time, it only lasted for about two breaths before Lu Yang clearly felt the rotting man's aura dissipate, and a tattered piece of his corpse fell from the sky and crashed into the lake.

Instantly, the lake water seemed to be polluted, with wisps of black vapor spreading in all directions.

Lu Yang raised an eyebrow slightly as he watched this scene.

With a Divine Sense, he caused the rotting man's corpse and the nearby contaminated water source to rise into the air.

The water source enveloped the corpse, forming a water sphere with a diameter of over 100 meters. Lu Yang used his Divine Sense, which was close to the Nascent Soul Realm stage, to firmly bind this water sphere.

At that moment, a whooshing sound came from the air, and Qin Nanyue flew over from a distance and stopped beside Lu Yang.

She glanced at the mangled corpse in the water sphere, then looked at Lu Yang, her usually proud eyes now filled with admiration and adoration, though her tone remained as arrogant as ever. "Young Master Lu, you're quite powerful, aren't you? You even managed to kill such a monster so easily, and only with your Foundation Establishment Middle Stage cultivation."

Qin Nanyue watched the entire battle between Lu Yang and the rotting man from a distance.

Lu Yang's cultivation level remained unchanged at the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage.

Even so, he was still able to kill this rotting man in the Late Golden Core.

It should be noted that although this rotting man's cultivation level was only at the Late Golden Core stage, his materializable Principle were enough to allow him to fight against opponents of higher levels.

Although this rotting man's Spiritual Qi is not strong enough, he has no self-awareness, and he cannot cast Law Technique, he is still a match for most Golden Core Perfection due to his powerful instinctive use of the Principle!

Lu Yang, with only his Foundation Establishment Middle Stage cultivation, easily crushed the rotting man, which shows just how strong Lu Yang was.

Qin Nanyue was also a woman, and seeing Lu Yang's immense strength, she naturally felt admiration for him.

However, she was too embarrassed to show it.

Seeing Qin Nanyue's haughty expression, Lu Yang couldn't help but chuckle. He pinched Qin Nanyue's cheek and said, "Alright, let's go."

Qin Nanyue suddenly remembered something and immediately said, "Wait! Wasn't there a longsword in that basement just now? That longsword seemed quite unusual. Shouldn't we take it back?"

Lu Yang thought about it and felt that it made sense.

Although he's quite wealthy, why wouldn't he take what he can get his hands on?

He nodded, his Divine Sense sweeping across the water below. He quickly found the fragments left by the Ruins at the bottom of the water, and among them, he found the ancient sword whose spiritual light had dissipated.

Divine Sense a thought, the ancient sword, bound by Lu Yang, rose into the air.

Lu Yang reached out and picked up the ancient sword, glanced at it casually, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"It was actually Spirit Treasure, but unfortunately, its spiritual essence has dissipated."

He then raised an eyebrow, looked at Qin Nanyue, and said with a half-smile, "Looks like my luck is pretty good after all. I can find Spirit Treasure just by looking around."

Qin Nanyue immediately felt jealous, pouted, and looked at Lu Yang with some frustration.

Lu Yang chuckled as he looked at Qin Nanyue's pouting face; this girl rarely made such an expression.

He suddenly leaned over and kissed her pouting lips. Qin Nanyue's pretty face immediately turned red. She looked away and muttered, "You're so bad... Let's go."

The two flew over the lake and landed on an open space by the lake.

Lu Yang glanced at the water sphere that had turned completely black, lost in thought.

Qin Nanyue frowned and said, "That monster seems to be acting strangely; its Dao power is incredibly corrupting. Should we bury it?"

Lu Yang seemed to be deep in thought, then said, "I should be able to try to eliminate this pollution."

Qin Nanyue glanced at Lu Yang with some surprise, but didn't ask any further questions. She simply nodded and quietly looked at Lu Yang.

The next moment, Lu Yang felt the Greater Yin Spirit Body within his body.

Although Lu Yang did not cultivate the Great Yin Dao and did not understand the Grand Yin Principle and Greater Yin Qi, he could barely try to control this power with his Greater Yin Spirit Body.

The next moment, Lu Yang's hand suddenly grabbed out of thin air.

The black energy within the water sphere was rapidly extracted, transforming into wisps of black mist that eventually landed in Lu Yang's hand.

These wisps of black energy grew more numerous and denser, eventually transforming into a pitch-black liquid.

As the black mist was drawn out, the water inside the water sphere gradually became clear.

The head of the rotting corpse inside the water sphere suddenly exploded, and a piece of black crystal floated out.

Following Lu Yang's suction, the crystal passed through the water sphere and landed in Lu Yang's hand.

The remaining black energy immediately merged into the crystal.

Soon, all the black mist and black water disappeared, leaving only a piece of pure black crystal in Lu Yang's hand.

Looking at the crystal, Lu Yang could clearly sense an incredibly dense Greater Yin Sha Qi within it.

He didn't know what this thing was, but if Lu Yang himself cultivated any Cultivation Method or Law Technique related to Greater Yin Sha Qi, this thing should be a great tonic for him.

He thought for a moment, then put the crystal away. He glanced at the water sphere and the corpse inside, then threw them back into the lake.

This time, the lake water did not turn black.

Lu Yang clapped his hands and laughed, "Alright, let's go."

Qin Nanyue smiled and said, "I've finished what you asked me to do! Can I work with you now?"

Lu Yang nodded and chuckled, "Of course."

"Where are we going?" Qin Nanyue asked with a hint of curiosity.

Lu Yang was immediately stumped by the question.

He laughed and said, "Just wander around casually."

He had just been wandering around aimlessly.

Qin Nanyue: "?"

She was speechless, her face darkening.

For others, this is a once-in-a-century fortuitous opportunity!

Who would wander around like that?

However, given his wealth, it really doesn't matter to him.

Qin Nanyue seemed to remember something and said, "I have a map here. Would you like to take a look and then choose a place?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yang's eyes lit up. "You have a map of the Ancient Yue Secret Realm? Let me see!"

With a map, he should be able to find some fun places, right?
