After getting the approximate location of the nearby dangerous area, Xiao Chen did not stay on the island much.

And I took the time to go outside to investigate.

It has to be said that with a clear direction and location, at least the search and verification will be much faster.

Unfortunately, this method also has a flaw, that is, the dangerous places provided by the other party are diverse.

I traveled to seven places in a row, and encountered either weird eddies, large patches of highly toxic red blood algae, or a psychedelic sea filled with large amounts of mirage, etc.

These places are indeed dangerous, but they are not the dangerous places Xiao Chen needs.

But it doesn't matter. It only took less than three days to search these seven locations. The overall efficiency was still very high.

Xiao Chen was not impatient, but returned to Ren Ze Island.

First, he reunited those old men and wise men, and then fulfilled his previous promise.

"It's a pity that my good friend is not in the previous seven places."

"But after my verification, the information you provided is very accurate, so here are seven bottles of Spirit Wine, which is the reward you deserve."

After saying that, he handed out everything in front of everyone.

When the seven monks finished the inspection, they expressed their gratitude one after another.

Then he continued to ask, "Now everyone can think carefully about whether there are any other dangerous places in the nearby sea area."

"Especially in some Ancient Books or stories passed down from ancestors."

"Have you ever mentioned some places you must not go?"

Seeing their companions receiving rewards, the other monks were already envious in their hearts.

At this time, when they heard Xiao Chen asking again, everyone racked their brains, wondering if there was anything missing from Meditation.

And under the intentional guidance of Ancient Books and Story.

One of the old men in a gray coat suddenly recalled the ancient myths and stories that had been passed down on the island in the early years.

He immediately stood up tremblingly and saluted awkwardly. "Reporting to Senior, I heard a legend when I was a child, but I didn't have time to verify whether it was true or not."

"I'm just afraid that it might delay senior's time."

Xiao Chen immediately encouraged. "It doesn't matter, just tell me. If there is no other choice, I don't mind trying my luck."

"If the location is real, your reward will be indispensable."

After receiving the permission, the old man in gray coat suddenly had no worries anymore.

He immediately began to retell the story in his memory. "I was very young at that time and my memory was not very good. I only remember that there was a desperate situation hidden where the sun rose."

"There is a forbidden place created by nature, filled with invisible Death Qi."

"If someone breaks into it without permission, they will never come out alive."

"Even if you are just passing by nearby, you can easily be infected by Death Qi. You may not notice any difference at first, but the strange disease will gradually break out and eventually you will die."

His description was very interesting, Xiao Chen's eyes lit up after hearing it.

Without special means, monks cannot see Sha Qi with their eyes alone.

So the so-called Death Qi in this story is probably Sha Qi!

He quickly asked, "The place where the sun rises is too general. Is there a more specific location?"

"Think about it carefully. Is there anything left in the story about how to identify forbidden places?"

The old man in the gray coat frowned. "I don't dare to deceive my senior, and I don't know the detailed characteristics of Death Trap."

Damn it, my happiness just now was in vain.

If there is only information about the east, there is almost no difference between it and nothing.

The east side is so vast, who knows exactly where Sha Qi is.

"Is there only one person who has heard this story?"

Xiao Chen looked at the others. "Whoever can add details will be rewarded after confirmation."

However, everyone around them looked at each other, as if they had never heard of anything like this.

Instead, two more people gave different myths and legends.

But those are a bit speculative, and they also lack a clear location, making it almost impossible to verify the authenticity.

Just when Xiao Chen thought that he might not get any new information this time.

However, he noticed that many people had gathered outside the main hall.

A young man who could not be more than twenty years old rushed straight to the entrance of the hall and knelt on the ground.

Behind is a group of monks who look like guards and Clan Elder.

At this time, he saw the young people who had broken into the hall making a mess.

Someone was shouting, "Catch him, catch him quickly!"

But many monks did not dare to approach because Xiao Chen had previously promised that monks who approached without authorization would be arrested and lit sky lanterns.

Golden Core True Person is fully capable of doing such a thing, so no one dares to go over and arrest people.

"Who are you and why are you here?"

Xiao Chen waved his hand and opened the palace door, staring at the young man. "Give me a reason not to punish you."

Unexpectedly, the young man kowtowed three times on the ground.

Then he responded loudly, "I know a secret and dangerous place. I guarantee it is a place that none of them know about."

"But I have a condition. I beg Senior to take me out of here and go to the outside world!"

When he talked about the outside world, there was a hint of expectation in his tone.

Xiao Chen took two steps closer and asked, "What if I don't agree? Do you want to threaten me?"

The young man looked up at him with determination in his eyes. "Then I offended senior without authorization and am willing to receive the death penalty."

He took out a piece of flint from his arms that had an edge polished to an extremely sharp edge.

He put it directly on his neck. "If the junior's inappropriate words have angered the senior, please don't implicate the rest of the clan."

"The juniors can take care of themselves without dirtying the hands of the seniors."

Xiao Chen From his eyes, it seemed that he really saw the will to die.

Are you playing so hard at such a young age?

"Ze Wa Zi, what nonsense are you talking about? Quickly kowtow to your senior and admit your mistake!"

But the old man in gray coat from before stood up and scolded loudly first.

Then he looked at Xiao Chen and begged for help, "Senior, please calm down. This wild kid's parents died when he was young. He lacks discipline. He didn't mean to offend the nobles."

"Senior, please forgive him for this offense because he is still a child."

However, the young man neither begged for mercy nor made an excited rebuttal.

Just as if he was reminded of something, he looked at Xiao Chen seriously. "My father went to that dangerous place and got a strange disease when he came back."

"Although I didn't go to sea with my father, I heard the story of my father's voyage from my mother's mouth."

"I can help senior lead the way!"

He particularly emphasized his own value in an attempt to impress Xiao Chen.

"I don't like to be a burden around me."

Xiao Chen reached out and pressed the flint in his hand. "But if I just send you away from here, it won't be that difficult."

"But the premise of all this is that you didn't lie to me."

"By the way, you two seem to be talking about the same place?"

He looked at the old man in gray coat.

The other party immediately trembled and knelt down to admit his mistake. "Senior Qi, I told you last time to continue thinking about what you missed."

"I was also afraid that I was getting old and confused, so I went to find Ze Wa Zi to find out something."

"But I definitely didn't reveal anything that I shouldn't have said."

The young man also testified. "There have been no outsiders on the island for many years. Normally, only Island Master is qualified to use this hall."

"So the senior's identity and requirements were all guessed by myself and are none of my uncle's business."

In fact, this is because they both thought too much.

Xiao Chen originally just thought that if they were talking about the same place, then this young man's words should have some credibility.

At least it was more reliable than the other two mythical stories, and it was worth giving him a try.

Before, I was only worried about the lack of a specific location, but now that I have the young man in front of me as my guide, this is no longer a problem.

He didn't say much nonsense, just stretched out his hand and lifted the young man up from the ground with his true energy.

Then he took out the small Cloud Piercing Shuttle that was almost dusty from Vast Sea Ring: "Come up here, you will show the way."

If you want to take low-level monks with you, the spirit shuttle or Spirit Boat is the most convenient tool.

Speaking of which, this Cloud Piercing Shuttle is what Xiao Chen originally obtained from the Southern Lao Sea. I didn't expect that it would be used here in the end.

"You can also continue to think more about it."

Before Xiao Chen left, he did not forget to remind him again, "Also, if you Island Master comes out of confinement, tell him too."

"I have a lot of spiritual objects in my hand, even Fourth-Order Spiritual Item is not beyond negotiation."

In this regard, he has always been generous.

But it is a pity that Island Master will miss this trading opportunity.

Through the guidance of the young man, Xiao Chen set off from the island and headed east.

After seven days, we arrived at a particularly deep sea area.

"The area ahead is full of Death Qi. Abba took the risk and went there to salvage Nine-Joint Fish, but was killed by Death Qi."

The young man pointed at the empty sea in front of him, but his eyes were a little red.

Xiao Chen immediately used Secret Method to observe, but saw nothing.

The sea area in front of us is still empty, and it doesn't look like there is Sha Qi at all.

"Are you sure you're here?"

Xiao Chen reminded, "Think carefully, have we not gone to the wrong place in the past two days?"

But the young man said firmly, "Absolutely, this is the place."

He had repeatedly deduced the location here in his mind to ensure that he was definitely not going wrong.

Xiao Chen saw that he was sure, so he also roughly estimated his current position in his mind.

It turns out that even though it ran so far, it is still within the approximate range circled by Su Li and has not exceeded the corresponding boundary.

In other words, Sha Qi may indeed exist here.

So Xiao Chen controlled the spirit shuttle to float in mid-air, and opened Spiritual Power Barrier as a protection.

To avoid having blind seabirds or Sea Fish passing by while you are away.

Then I flew into the sea alone, wanting to see if there was anything Profound Mystery hidden under the water.

It turned out that this sea area was extremely deep!

He dived for about 4,800 feet in one breath, and then he finally reached the bottom.

And when Xiao Chen stood on the seabed, he discovered that there was a basin-like place under his feet.

You can actually move forward while continuing to go deeper.

After walking like this for dozens of miles, we finally arrived at the bottom of Deep Sea Pit.

At the same time, I also saw a ball with a milky white glow.

This location is very clever, because there is a faint red light coming from the bottom of the ball.

Xiao Chen You can see clearly that it is magma underground.

If this ball hadn't happened to block it here, perhaps the magma would have spewed out and then cooled rapidly in the seawater to form a solid shell.

But now, since the ball is stuck in the middle, it will not melt yet.

So this special situation formed.

It happened to be a coincidence that the red light flashed underneath, as if magma was surging.

Immediately a wisp of Sha Qi floated out of the white ball, and then entered Xiao Chen's body.

And it was the last Sha Qi--Yang Water Sars he lacked.

"So that's what happened."

Xiao Chen immediately understood the reason.

If I were not standing nearby, this wisp of Sha Qi would float to the sea.

Either it enters the body of Sea Fish on the way, or it escapes to the sea and enters the body of a passing monk or seabird.

"But what is this?"

Xiao Chen approached the ball and looked at it curiously. "Why does Yang Water Sars come from a ball?"

The diameter of the ball in front of you is only one foot, which is not very small individually, but it is a bit strange that Sha Qi is contained in it.

Sha Qi Things like this don't usually get together like this.

Moreover, the surrounding environment is not quite right. The only possibility is that there are human factors involved.

"I can't figure out who could have done this?"

Xiao Chen was a little confused, but he didn't forget that he still had something to do.

He immediately reached out and grabbed the ball, preparing to absorb Sha Qi from it.

Sha Qi This thing has a special feature, that is, it will actively get into the nearest animal Spirit Body.

So the moment Xiao Chen comes into contact with the ball.

The whole ball immediately trembled violently, as if a white stream of water spurted out and rushed into his body.

The original milky white glow also disappeared immediately.

Only one transparent Crystal Ball was left, slowly sinking into the magma at the bottom.

"Not good!"

Xiao Chen The corners of his eyes suddenly jumped, and he hurriedly swam upward.

But it was obviously too late to run away at this time.

The moment Crystal Ball was melted, the magma accumulated at the bottom suddenly spewed out.

The opening of the hole, which was originally less than one foot, was suddenly torn apart and expanded several times.

Despite this, a large amount of magma still shot straight into the sky, breaking through more than 4,000 feet of sea water in an instant.

"Boom~!"

In the blink of an eye, everything for hundreds of miles around began to tremble, as if it was an undersea volcano erupting.

Naturally, Xiao Chen did not get any benefits, so it immediately triggered Night's Edge.

"Hiss~!"

Feeling the strong Might of Heaven and Earth in front of him, he couldn't help but take a breath. "This wave seems a bit sloppy."

But if you think about it carefully, there is no good way to avoid it this time.

In order to collect Sha Qi, you can't arrange a large talisman array on the seabed in advance to suppress the magma.

Not to mention that it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, the key point is that Xiao Chen currently does not know how to deploy large-scale formations.

For him, taking it directly is the most convenient, quick and trouble-free way.

Of course Xiao Chen can't think about it any more now.

While he was urging <Profound Heaven Ingestion Secret Method> with all his strength to refine the massive amount of Sha Qi that had just entered his body.

While moving your position as much as possible, stay away from this dangerous area.

This One Heart Two Uses is actually quite difficult.

Fortunately, <Profound Heaven Ingestion Secret Method> is powerful enough and nothing went wrong because there were too many Sha Qi.

Successfully suppressed this large amount of Sha Qi in the Dantian, preventing them from causing chaos in the body.

But in order to control Sha Qi, Xiao Chen also has to focus most of its attention on the Dantian.

"Plop!"

Xiao Chen emerged from the sea and fell directly into Cloud Piercing Shuttle.

Then he meditated on the spot and started refining Sha Qi.

The young man saw the waves on the sea a few miles away, as if the sky was falling apart.

Looking at Xiao Chen's eyes closed tightly, as if he was injured, I couldn't help but feel worried. After all, he was also on the same boat now.

I prayed silently in my heart, hoping that nothing would happen to this senior.

At least get him safely to the outside world first.

"Bang~!"

Waves tens of feet high hit Cloud Piercing Shuttle.

Fortunately, Spiritual Power Barrier had been activated before Xiao Chen left, and the ship remained stable.

At the same time, the core location of this lava eruption is dozens of miles away from here, and there is a thick layer of sea water in between, so the power caused by it is greatly weakened.

Therefore, although there were some cracks on Spiritual Power Barrier, it finally persisted.

Without being disturbed, Xiao Chen also successfully refined Sha Qi according to his mental method.

The last Yang Water Seal was condensed in the Dantian.

At the moment when the condensation was successful, Yin Water Seal, which had been ready to move, immediately merged with Yang Water Seal.

Together they form an extremely mysterious pattern.

Several different forces are intertwined together, the vast ocean, the pitch-black abyss, the spring rain that nourishes all things, the ice that freezes everything... All the water under the sky seems to be hidden in this pattern.

Done!

Xiao Chen and Divine Sense Scan looked at Five Elements Sars who had all gathered in the Dantian, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help but curl up.

Of course, this alone is not enough.

He decided to work hard and condense Yang Five Elements Seal to get the last half percent Nascent Soul Formation success rate.

But before that, Xiao Chen took out a bottle of Grain Avoidance Pill and threw it directly to the boy.

Then with a wave of his hand, a line of true energy formed a tight barrier inside the spirit shuttle, completely isolating the young man.

It wasn't that he was worried that this young man would harm him.

After all, the opponent only has Qi Refining Realm. Even if Xiao Chen doesn't fight back, Golden Body Jade Bones alone can ignore all the opponent's attacks.

The main reason is that the next steps are too important to be affected by any unexpected factors.

Xiao Chen Take a few deep breaths and concentrate.

Then in the sea of consciousness, I recited the mental method Mnemonic in Secret Method silently twice, word for word, sentence by sentence, making sure that there were no omissions.

Then according to the mental records, a true essence was mobilized from Flawless Golden Core.

Actively guide it to be injected into Yang Wood Seal.

But unlike Yin Five Elements Seal, after this true essence entered Yang Wood Seal, it seemed like a seed fell into the field.

It quickly grew vigorously and almost doubled in size.

However, as it continued to grow, it suddenly began to decay and wither, and finally turned into a true essence ball as big as a seed.

Immediately afterwards, the entire true essence group was squeezed out and fell into Yang Fire Seal.

This was terrible, the little seed seemed to be ignited on the spot, and was burned into a pile of ashes not long after.

Then the ashes gathered there Yang Earth Seal.

As soon as it fell into it, it was instantly compressed into countless small points, and then these small points further collapsed into a very small earth ball.

It gradually becomes like the core of a mineral vein located deep in the earth's veins, with fine metal lines condensed inside.

As the earth ball gets smaller and smaller, more and more metal lines completely occupy the entire surface, and we come to Yang Metal Seal.

In an instant, there seemed to be tens of millions of Sword Qi bursting out, piercing back and forth towards the core.

Under such a fierce offensive, the core seemed to be completely chopped into a pile of powder that flowed with the fluctuation of Sword Qi.

When Sword Qi could no longer harm the powder, all the powder followed it to Yang Water Seal.

Then thousands of light blue waves lit up.

Even a pile of powder will inevitably be gradually dissolved in the water waves.

Finally, it completely turned into a clear stream, gurgling back into Yang Wood Seal.

However, this time, the situation is different.

Yang Wood Seal seems to have many roots growing into the water, completely absorbing it.

Finally, a stream of true energy that was obviously smaller but became more solid was released again.

During this process, five marks were also lit up one after another.

The auras of each other come together to form a larger outline of the mark.

Then comes the second cycle, and the third cycle...

Every time it is cycled, the mark becomes more real.

After going through the same whole day and night, and completing nine cycles, the mark finally became like a substance.

This means that Yang Five Elements Seal has been completely condensed successfully.

"Huh~, everything goes well."

Xiao Chen was fully focused on the whole process, until finally he felt relieved.

He looked at the true essence that had gone through nine cycles and saw that it was only one-third of its original size.

But the Spiritual Power contained in it not only did not decrease, but actually tripled!

Such refined and purified true energy, whether it is activating Spirit Artifact or using Law Technique, can erupt with far greater power than the original.

At the same time, after the condensation of Yang Five Elements Seal is completed, all Xiao Chen has to do is to introduce new true essence into it.

Then, without his own control, the true energy passed through different Yang Sha seals in sequence under the guidance of Yang Five Elements Seal.

It is quite purified every time it is cycled, and finally a particularly pure true essence is generated.

This effect is actually somewhat similar to Nine Luminaries Profound Pill that I took before Xiao Chen, both of which increase the quality of real energy.

It is also one of the main features of Yang Five Elements Seal.

And just after Yang Five Elements Seal was completely stable, it and Yin Five Elements Seal were far away from each other in the Dantian, exuding a natural attraction to each other.

Then, just like the previous five pairs of yin and yang evil seals, they merged into one.

Together they form a recurring pattern of Yin Yang Two Forms.

It looks a bit like Yin Yang Fish, but different.

This is the sign of success in the second stage of <Profound Heaven Ingestion Secret Method> cultivation - Five Elements Seal!

In other words, before this, Xiao Chen had actually been preparing and laying the foundation for the next practice.

Only when Five Elements Seal is successfully condensed can one begin to practice the true method of reaching heaven in <Profound Heaven Ingestion Secret Method>.

Sars Refining Art!

To be honest, this name sounds like Cultivation Method, who only knows how to practice Qi Refining Cultivator.

However, according to Immortal Palace Master, most people in the world practice Qi Refining's technique.

But he wanted to find a new way, so he created this Fiend Refining technique.

Although due to limited abilities, it is impossible to completely start from scratch, it can still be regarded as a new approach that is not connected with the world.

Therefore, the seemingly simple name Sars Refining Art actually represents at least a new genre that was born out of the traditional Qi Refining technique of the time.

This is why it clearly looks like a Breakthrough Secret Method.

But in fact, it can take effect at the same time as other Breakthrough Secret Method, without any conflict between them.
