There was nothing around Mirror Lake that could attract cultivators, so few would be willing to come here.

From that alone, it truly was a good place for Shattering Core, Forming Nascent Soul.

But it also had a fatal weakness: this place only had a Water Attribute Spirit Vein.

Shattering Core, Forming Nascent Soul required spiritual energy of the Five-element Attributes, and this place was clearly insufficient.

If he could find a spiritual item that aided Nascent Soul formation, undergoing tribulation here would be quite good.

If he could not find one, he would still have to undergo tribulation somewhere with a Fifth-order Attribute-less Spirit Vein.

According to the Animal Hide Book, more than ten thousand li south of Mirror Lake, there was another Mid-grade Fifth-order Wood Attribute Spirit Vein.

It was also in an outlying region, and there had been no record of any Fifth-order spiritual item appearing there for many years.

Nascent Soul Cultivators would certainly disdain to visit such a place.

Even if they did not dare enter the Seven Stars Heavenly Palace to fight over opportunities, their target would at least be a Sixth-order Spirit Vein.

Near a Fifth-order Spirit Vein, he would not encounter any great threats.

Riding a Fourth-order Flying Boat, he soon arrived near the Wood Attribute Spirit Vein.

There was a vast forest here, spanning five hundred li in every direction and filled with countless kinds of grass and trees.

Unfortunately, there were no longer any spirit plants of Fourth-order or above.

There were also many traces of cultivator activity in the forest. It seemed that others had already beaten him to it.

Wang Daoyuan found a place where the vegetation was exceptionally dense, used Flying Sand Escape to enter the ground, and arrived beside the Spirit Vein.
