Salin saw that Ainphent wasn't in danger for the time being, and began to observe the area. There wasn't much light at the bottom of the sea two thousand meters deep. Only Ainphent's plant undead spirit emitted a green light.
With this bit of light, the bottom of the sea was as bright as day to Salin. His Icy Vision only needed an extremely weak light source to clearly see everything around him.
Necromancy's Eyes of the Undead and Divine Eyes didn't need light to see everything in the dark. Icy Vision still had its weaknesses. But after an elemental mage became a Magic Shooter, they had the Dark Dominator, which allowed them to see clearly in any environment. Moreover, the Dark Dominator's vision was omnidirectional. After releasing this spell, everything within three hundred and sixty degrees around the elemental mage would have nowhere to hide. This was something that necromancy and divine spells couldn't compare to.
The world was made up of matter, and the foundation of matter was the elements. When an elemental mage trained to the extreme, they could grasp the truth of the world.
Salin's Icy Vision also had an advantage. It wasn't affected by the enemy's interference. Any hallucinogenic skills or drugs couldn't affect this spell. After activating Icy Vision, non-tracking spells could be accurately cast. Salin's Icy Vision was an ability he'd obtained automatically when he advanced, and it didn't consume magic strings when used.
This ability was unique to mages of a single element. Salin didn't know that there had been mages who could only use one element in the past, and he wasn't the first. When such a mage advanced, it was possible for them to obtain a permanent spell, and it could be used without exhausting the mage's Magic String.
This world was balanced. When you lost something, the heavens would compensate you in another way.
Salin's gaze searched the bottom of the sea. The battle here had ended at least half a month ago, but there were still strong elemental fluctuations in the entire sea. Crystallized sand and stones were everywhere, and some pits were dozens of meters deep. What surprised Salin was that he didn't see many corpses in the entire battle area.
More accurately, there weren't any complete corpses. Occasionally, Salin would find one or two carbonized bones, or the teeth or claws of some magical beast. But he couldn't even see a complete tail, much less a complete corpse.
A battle of this level was fierce, but Salin knew how strong the bodies of high-level magical beasts were. No matter what kind of battle it was, the corpses of high-level magical beasts shouldn't have disappeared.
Perhaps there were magical beasts that survived and ate the corpses. Salin was very regretful. If he could find the corpse, he would be able to dig out a large number of high-level magic cores. Unfortunately, this illusion was shattered. After a magical beast died, most of its magic cores would be devoured by other magical beasts. If it wasn't devoured, the Monster Core would also gradually dissipate according to its rank.
The magic cores sold in the human world were polished, cut, and preserved for a much longer period of time. As for the Monster Cores in the natural world, aside from a few special attributes, most of them would not exist forever. The higher the grade of the Monster Core, the longer it could be preserved. For example, the magic core of a magical beast of the ninth rank could be preserved for tens of thousands of years.
However, nature also had its own rules. The aura emitted by this Monster Core would attract other powerful magical beasts to devour it.
After observing for less than five minutes, Salin found a pattern in this place. All the elements were arranged around an origin, forming a divergent ring. Of course, this arrangement was not obvious, and was even very chaotic. Only when Salin's Ice-Cold Vision was he able to see some clues.
However, there was nothing in the center of the elemental array except for a huge pit. This was the center of the battle, and also the place where the battle was the fiercest. As Salin observed, he picked up the numerous remains of magical beasts. These remains were too small, but to be preserved in such an environment, they were all abnormally strong materials.
These things could not be made into complete armor, but they could be made into weapons. For example, a broken magical beast's tooth was half the length of an arm, and could be used to make the tip of a spear.
Salin was satisfied with this kind of harvest. He slowly swam to the bottom of the pit and found something valuable. In the center of the pit, there were some fragments scattered on the ground that had completely crystallized. Salin held these fragments in his hands and observed them carefully. Soon, he found a pattern.
These fragments were about the thickness of a finger, and when put together, they formed the shape of an egg. However, this egg was no longer complete, and some of the fragments were clearly missing. Salin felt the life force on the eggshell, and was extremely surprised.
There was clearly a living creature in this egg, but he had not found it when he found the dragon bones. Salin carefully observed every piece of the eggshell, and saw that there were bite marks on the eggshell. No matter what creature was in the egg, it already had terrifying teeth when it was born.
This eggshell was harder than any known metal, and the cracks on it were naturally formed. Without these cracks, the creature inside the egg would never have hatched. After hatching, the creature would eat the eggshell to replenish the elements it needed. However, the fate of this fellow in the eggshell was somewhat bad. Without a mother beast to protect it, it was surrounded by the attacks of powerful magical beasts. The little thing only had time to take two bites before abandoning the eggshell fragments.
Salin put away the eggshell fragments with great regret. These things could be used to forge equipment. He felt pity for the creature in the eggshell. Even if it was a dragon of the highest level, it could not have survived the attack of such a large number of magical beasts. If he had escaped a little slower, he could have found this egg and taken it away.
Sometimes, being too cautious was not a good thing, and one would miss a rare opportunity. The creature in the eggshell had at least the bloodline of ancient times, and was captured by humans from other planes. Now, the difficulty of crossing planes was unimaginable. Even if they could find the coordinates and cross over, humans had already lost the power of the past, and it was impossible to capture these creatures.
In fact, not to mention capturing, being able to escape from the attacks of these creatures was already considered a powerhouse. The Tiago dragon was originally captured by humans, and this kind of dragon was now difficult to deal with in the Myers Continent plane. This was the result after several generations of bloodline mutation, and Tiago lost some of its power.
But this egg, no matter how high its level was, could still be subdued when it just hatched.
These techniques for subduing newborn creatures were also left by ancient humans. At that time, humans liked to raise powerful creatures from childhood and treat them like children. Maybe this was a kind of bad taste, but it provided an opportunity for humans to improve their strength.
For example, Salin used this method to subdue the thunder dragon. Otherwise, how could he control 24 thunder dragons by himself? Even if it was a newborn, its soul was still very complicated.
Salin did not know what kind of magic beast ate this descendant of the ancient dragon, but the magic beast that ate this little thing would probably evolve into a terrifying existence, which was what worried Salin. The route of the Frozen Sea was regarded as his exclusive domain, and if a ridiculously powerful guy appeared here, his future days would be difficult.
Fortunately, this kind of evolution process was also slow. Salin calculated in his heart, if all the mages of Seriger Island came to the north, could he find a way to gather together and eliminate this lucky guy? If it was allowed to grow, sooner or later, it would control the entire northern sea, and no one would be able to come here at will.
But what was this guy? How could he find it? Salin had no clue.
Helplessly, Salin could only put this matter aside for the time being, and continue to search for the remains of the magic beasts nearby. Claws, scales, teeth, bones, horns, and special veins. These things were scattered, and none of them was more than half a meter long, and the smallest was only a little bigger than the pearl Salin had obtained.
However, Salin kept all of them into his dimensional stone, no matter how small they were, they were still meat. These things were of high quality, but it was a pity that their attributes were not uniform, so it was very difficult to use them to make large magic equipment. There was no information about these materials in the magic beast encyclopedia, and if he wanted to use these materials to make magic equipment, Salin would have to use Figaro's magic formula to analyze the specific attributes of these materials, which was another huge project.
These materials were definitely more valuable than those level 4 magic cores, but it would take too much time to make use of them. Salin could not do it himself, he had many things to do, and he still had to continue practicing magic, so he could only wait for his teacher to bring people over, and hand these things over to the mages of Seriger Island.
Salin cleaned up the battlefield, and returned to Ainphent's side. Ainphent's undead plant obviously recognized Salin, it opened its branches, and let Salin enter its protection. This was the advantage of an undead plant, if it was any other undead, it might have shown hostility towards Salin. After all, Salin had the attributes of the Goddess of Nature, which was fatal to undead.
Ainphent tried hard to control it, and the flesh and blood undead was also absorbing the power here, the bloody wings on its back had also expanded to five meters, and its flying ability had been greatly enhanced.
Salin sighed in his heart, among all the summoned creatures, undead were the most loyal, because after signing a contract with a human, it would be easier for undead to evolve, and more difficult for them to die. After the master died of natural causes, the undead would gain the ability to travel between two planes, even though it was limited, it was still a life-saving skill.
If this undead was fatally attacked in the Undead Plane, it could escape to the plane where its master once lived.
If undead were the most loyal, then demons were the most difficult to control. Nelis had signed a soul contract when she was still a minor, otherwise it would bring more trouble to Salin, and sometimes even endanger his life.
Fortunately, he had a winged skeleton. Salin looked back at the Coiled Turtle Alchemy Ship, the surface of the alchemy ship had become darker, turning black, and in Salin's cold vision, it was also blurred.
"Master, do you really think I'm better than Nelis?" The winged skeleton's voice suddenly came out, and Salin was stunned.
