Chapter 987 Three Elements Heavy Water

As everyone began to descend, Xuan Shuang Sanren transmitted his voice:

The deep sea in the Fog Sea Islands region has the most complex hydrological environment in the Vast Ocean Realm, and the surging undercurrents can also cause trouble for cultivators in the Three Flower Realm.

Walruses and thunder serpents are difficult to spot in such an environment, so be prepared for surprise attacks.

The average depth here is about 10,000 zhang, and the deepest point is as deep as 15,000 zhang.

Moreover, the deep-sea environment nurtures various high-level spiritual waters, making the water density much higher than normal water.

The sheer amount of pressure alone can have a serious impact on cultivators.

Another effect on cultivators is temperature; just like scorching heat, there is no limit to cold.

Even cultivators at the Three Flowers Realm cannot stay in the deepest part of the sea for long.

Ji An nodded slightly, channeling his qi and blood to condense into a light armor, and releasing the hardness of metal and stone to maximize his defensive capabilities.

The Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag was summoned, and his body was supported by a layer of transparent water.

Having the Five Banners as a spiritual treasure, its greatest strength lies in the fact that it has no weaknesses and its combat power will not be affected by any environment.

He can switch his primary magical treasure at any time under the Five Elements environment. In extremely Yin or extremely Yang environments, he can unify the Five Elements to determine Yin and Yang.

Under his deliberate urging, the other five flags transformed their power, ultimately turning into water elemental power to amplify the black flag's might.

The Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag transformed into the shape of the Black Tortoise, merging with the surrounding water. At this moment, it became Ji An's antennae for sensing the environment, without requiring him to expend his divine sense.

This would greatly improve his endurance in combat.

At first, everyone descended quite quickly, but after diving to 5,000 zhang, the speed slowed down, and then they would pause for a moment every 1,000 zhang.

During the descent, everyone occasionally discovered various spiritual objects, but only those of the fourth-order top-grade level or above caught their attention.

The spiritual items obtained through collective action will be stored in the Cave Void Stone by Yunmiao Sanren, and the others will simultaneously record what resources they have acquired, which will then be distributed equally.

The reason for placing the Void Stone was to prepare for the worst.

If the spoils are placed in a small world, and the cultivator who was storing the spoils dies due to unforeseen circumstances, everyone will lose everything.

Perhaps the immense water pressure significantly reduced the cultivators' spiritual pressure dissipation, as they began to be frequently attacked by the Thunder Sea Serpents after arriving in the deep sea below seven thousand feet.

These sea beasts, only at the Golden Core and Nascent Soul levels, acted like madmen, suddenly bursting out and releasing electric currents, seemingly trying to paralyze their prey.

Unfortunately, they got one thing wrong: in this kind of hunt, they are the prey.

Ji An flicked his finger, and a silver moon blade flashed, slicing the Thunder Sea Serpent, which dared to launch a sneak attack, into several pieces. The eerie blue blood spread out, like ink diffusing in clear water.

This is a skillful application of the Foundation Establishment level spell, Golden Light Technique. Now, when he activates metal or water element spells, he encounters almost no resistance in the deep sea environment.

The others also used their own methods to kill the invading sea serpent.

The Crescent Moon Hermit coiled the corpse of the mid-Nascent Soul stage sea python next to him, froze it in ice, and then stored it in the Void Stone.

He smiled at Ji An and said:

"Sea creatures generally have low intelligence and act only according to biological instincts, so very few sea creatures can take human form."

The flesh and blood of the Thunder Sea Serpent are nourished by the power of thunder, making it a rare and top-tier ingredient.

It would be wonderful if we could hunt down a sea python at the Three Flowers Realm level. Its scales could be refined into spirit armor, and its hides could be refined into soft armor or used as talisman materials.

Blood can be made into high-quality talisman ink, a top-grade spiritual material for drawing thunder talismans, significantly improving the quality of the talismans.

Beast meat is edible; it is not only delicious but also contains abundant water-elemental spiritual energy, serving as a substitute for elixirs.

The liver contains special qi and blood, which, after being refined by alchemists, can be used as the main ingredient in the refining of qi and blood-based elixirs.

The most valuable item is the inner core, which contains abundant thunder power. Although the thunder pearl made from it is a one-time use item, its power is much stronger than thunder talismans of the same grade.

In the deep sea, the Thunder Sea Serpent is extremely fast and possesses powerful water-based escape techniques; we can never catch it.

As he spoke, his eyes were filled with longing. It was extremely difficult to kill or capture a sea python at the Three-Flower Realm level, as this was their home ground.

Ji An's eyes were calm and deep as an abyss as he smiled and said:

"If I encounter a Thunder Sea Python at the Three Flowers Realm level, I will do my utmost to kill it."

The golden light emanating from the ground was unaffected by the environment; he was confident that even the sea serpents at the bottom of the sea could not escape his grasp.

The only concern is that the sea serpent's escape was a trap. It is estimated that in the deep sea environment, which is tens of thousands of feet deep, the area he can perceive using his divine sense is only seven or eight hundred feet.

Using the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag will extend the sensing range slightly, but only by about a hundred zhang.

This short distance was fleeting when the Golden Light of Leap was unleashed, leaving no time to check the situation further away.

"Haha, if you can hunt one down, everyone will benefit from your success."

Crescent Moon Hermit was quite pleased. The two most valuable things on the Thunder Sea Python were its inner core and the thunder horn on its head. These were high-grade spiritual materials in the eyes of weapon refiners.

Yunmiao Sanren gathered everyone together and repeatedly gave them his instructions:

"We are now 8,000 feet above the surface. If we continue to dive, the chances of encountering walrus people have greatly increased."

Be extremely vigilant, as these creatures can refine their large teeth into natal spiritual treasures, which possess extremely strong piercing power.

If they are of the same grade, even our defensive magical treasures will be pierced; we can easily pierce through lower-grade magical treasures.

Her expression turned serious, and her voice became solemn:

"If you encounter a walrus-like creature in the late stage of the Three Flowers Realm, be on high alert. If the enemy approaches the peak of the Three Flowers Realm, immediately form pairs to cross and defend against the enemy, and fly to the shallow sea as quickly as possible."

The walrus people are a dominant force in the vast ocean realm, and this particular branch in the Fog Sea Islands is especially powerful.

Everyone nodded and took turns resting for a while to adjust their condition before continuing their descent.

A drop of spiritual water appeared within the perception range of the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag, and judging from the unusual phenomenon it exhibited, it was at least a mid-grade fifth-order level.

He immediately called everyone to move towards the spiritual water, and soon found a crystal-clear, jade-like droplet-shaped spiritual object in a crevice.

The creature, about the size of a thumb, was originally covered in mud and sand. Yunmiao Sanren carefully held it in her hand, and after sensing it for a moment, she exclaimed with delight:

"A fifth-grade, high-quality Tri-element Heavy Water! We've hit the jackpot."

Three-element heavy water can be used as the main ingredient to refine pills, which can not only enhance the power of the soul and improve the cultivation of magic power, but also nourish the power of qi and blood.

If the auxiliary materials are really hard to find, you can also swallow and refine them directly.

Xuan Shuang Sanren's eyes curved into crescent moons as he smiled:

"Haha, my first Tier 5 superior resource!"

Tri-element heavy water is not an ordinary fifth-tier superior resource; its value is comparable to many fifth-tier supreme resources.

Ji An smiled with satisfaction. He had a wish when he entered the Vast Ocean Realm: to accumulate enough resources to upgrade the Profound Origin Water Control Flag to the fifth-grade superior level.

In the Calabash World, there are several resources that are most sought after by cultivators but are not traded. He doesn't have many items that he can exchange for that are of mid-grade or higher level.

Unbeknownst to them, a walrus-man a thousand feet away activated a secret technique, his large tusk flashing like lightning as he traversed the water, instantly arriving beside Ji An.

He sensed from the depths of his being that this enemy posed the greatest danger, so he didn't hold back and unleashed his most powerful attack.

When Ji An sensed the danger, the walrus man's natal magical artifact was already very close to him.

The water-based protective barrier formed by the five flags slowed down the ivory's speed and slightly deflected the angle of its attack, but the threat remained.

Water-based magic has only mediocre defensive capabilities and is not suitable as a primary means of defense.

At this critical moment, Ji An reflexively released a spell he hadn't mastered in a long time—the Solidifying Metal Technique.

The golden light expanded instantly around his body, and two large teeth pierced the magical barrier, one of them even touching his skin.

A chill ran through Ji An. He had not expected the enemy hiding in the shadows to have such a powerful attack. A fine layer of cold sweat broke out on his back, and the hair on his temples and forehead stood up in response.

Fortunately, the spell was successfully activated, and the enemy's magical artifact was thus embedded in the metal elemental light.

After the ivory tusks were trapped, Ji An dispelled the spell, grabbed one tusk in each hand, and roared through gritted teeth:

"Enemy attack!"

The others were startled and immediately became alert and prepared for battle.

The ivory surface crackled with lightning and trembled violently; clearly, the enemy wanted to take back their natal magic weapon.

Ji An, of course, refused, and the more she tried to hold on, the tighter she gripped.

The walrus people had never encountered such a situation before: their natal magical artifact had fallen into the hands of the enemy and could not be summoned back.

It should be noted that most of his offensive capabilities come from his natal spiritual treasure; if he loses his natal spiritual treasure, his abilities will be greatly reduced.

He appeared and flew towards the cultivator. The closer he got to his natal magic weapon, the greater the power he could unleash.

Yunmiao Sanren was startled. Judging from the oppressive aura emanating from the enemy, this was actually a walrus-like being at the near-perfect level of the Three Flowers Realm.

She glimpsed that Ji An's hands were burned by lightning, the skin was torn open, and in some places even the white bones were exposed, which looked very terrifying.

Despite the horrifying injuries, the other party still clung tightly to the ivory.

She and Ji An exchanged a glance and immediately understood the domineering aura contained within it; the other party was risking injury to create an opportunity for everyone!

"attack!"

Upon receiving the order, the three of them simultaneously unleashed their most powerful attacks.

The Crescent Moon Hermit released a fire dragon, which was the manifestation of his natal spiritual treasure. Although it was greatly suppressed in the deep sea environment, it still created a region of intense fire elemental energy.

Xuan Shuang Sanren's natal spirit treasure is also of the fire element, and it also transforms into a fire dragon, which, together with his ally's fire dragon, attacks the enemy from the left and right.

These two attacks, though seemingly powerful, are actually a cover for the most lethal attack.

A light shone through the cold, dark area, bringing light to this region that had remained dark for thousands of years.

Yunmiao Sanren's natal spiritual treasure is a golden shuttle, which he hid in the sea of ​​fire and flew towards the walrus people.

She used a secret method to cultivate this magical treasure to the fifth-grade superior level in a short period of time. As long as it hits an enemy, it can injure them.

The walrus man didn't notice the magical artifacts moving through the sea of ​​fire immediately; in his eyes, these enemies posed no fatal threat.

Empiricism can be deadly. The walrus man focused most of his attention on his natal magic weapon, and the next moment he paid the price for it.

The golden shuttle pierced his abdomen, penetrating his thick skin, but was stopped by his muscles and fat; his body of fat inadvertently saved his life.

The walrus man was furious. He had thought he would be invincible, but his plans had been repeatedly thwarted.

His physical injuries prevented him from continuing to use the secret technique to recall his natal spiritual treasure, and this brief respite bought Ji An some time.

He gritted his teeth and endured the pain as he drew a sealing talisman in mid-air, temporarily sealing the two ivory treasures.

If the ivory spirit treasure strongly resists, it cannot be stored in spatial spirit treasures such as the Void Stone or the Small World.

Having done all this, he immediately stored the spiritual treasure in the Void Stone, temporarily cutting off the enemy's summons.

Then, disregarding his injuries, he channeled his magical power, his movements becoming afterimages as he unleashed Yin-Yang Divine Thunder.

When the walrus man could no longer sense the presence of his natal treasure, his anger consumed his reason as he roared and flew forward. He hadn't suffered such a loss in tens of thousands of years.

At this moment, black and white spiritual light bloomed around him, and amidst the flashes of lightning, he was engulfed by Yin-Yang Divine Lightning.

Ji An was unleashing a spell with all his might, and its immense power immediately attracted the attention of his allies.

Without further ado, they immediately changed their strategy, frantically activating their magical artifacts to disrupt the surrounding area.

As long as the power of water is briefly disrupted, the enemy will not be able to escape quickly using escape techniques.

Staying even a moment longer will result in enduring a powerful thunderbolt attack, and thunder has a special paralyzing effect that can greatly reduce the mental agility of living beings.

It can be said that the moment the walrus-men rushed out, the outcome was already decided; the Yin-Yang Divine Thunder was the highest-level funeral.

Before long, the enemy was reduced to charcoal.

Ji An dared not hold back, fearing unexpected changes, so he went all out.

Although it's a pity to waste a high-level corpse, the enemy's death will greatly deter the walrus people who are hiding in the shadows and watching the battlefield.

Yunmiao Sanren sensed the walrus man's life force gradually dissipating, and his mind relaxed slightly.

She instinctively swallowed and exclaimed in admiration:

"Not long ago, I said that we must flee when we encounter a walrus man who has reached the Three Flowers Realm. I never thought that we would be able to kill such a walrus man so soon."

"Fellow Daoist Xuanqing, your contribution in this battle was the greatest. This should be recorded, and the spoils of war should be distributed accordingly in the future."

If the enemy's natal spirit treasure is summoned back to their side, the battle will become hesitant, and they will not dare to launch a full-scale attack.

What terrified her even more was the other party's

Ji An forced a smile and said modestly:

"This is all thanks to everyone; I only did what I was supposed to do."
