Just facing the pitch-black seawater around him would have made any cultivator—even an Integration stage cultivator—unwilling to explore any farther downward. The more unknown something was, the more terrifying it became.
Though he knew the area below was extremely dangerous, Qin Fengming's naturally adventurous personality still won out.
With his spirit highly focused, his figure did not pause in the slightest and continued shooting rapidly downward.
An hour later, he still had not touched the seafloor.
Time slowly passed. Two hours later, the scenery around him remained unchanged.
As he went deeper and deeper, the enormous pressure outside his body forced Qin Fengming to operate the Golden Body Art at full power to withstand it.
After three hours, even with the Golden Body Art bolstering him, Qin Fengming could already feel an incomparably heavy pressure repeatedly surging against him. His thoughts raced, and he also pushed the Treasure Refining Ghost Art to its utmost.
With the support of the two body-refining arts, the powerful pressure outside his body finally eased slightly.
Qin Fengming naturally had no reason to worry about the consumption of his soul force. There were quite a few Soul Stones in his storage ring.
To other cultivators, Soul Stones might only count as an extremely precious material for refining artifacts.
But to Qin Fengming, who cultivated the Treasure Refining Ghost Art, they could absorb the vast soul force within Soul Stones for his own use and replenish the soul force he had expended.
That was also why Qin Fengming had not hesitated much before agreeing when he heard Fang Gan's words.
Of course, he did not want to tell Fang Gan about this. He certainly did not want to let go of the Nourishing Yin Wood or the three Soul Treasures that appeared to possess extraordinary might.
