When Xiao Chen heard that there were so many Spirit Stones, he did not find it strange. There were many Spirit Veins in the Boundless Sea. Furthermore, they were of high quality.
Aside from the resources at the bottom of the sea, the four great clans controlled the trade between the Northern Sea and the continent. The wealth they brought was astronomical.
"There are some rare ores in the rings of these four people. They can be used in the Ten Thousand Magic Gathering Formation. Adding in the Spirit Stones from earlier and the points you have already obtained, if you exchange them all, you should barely be able to activate the Ten Thousand Magic Gathering Formation. "
Xiao Chen paused for a moment and quickly stopped. He said, "Enter the Spirit Blood Jade first. I will rush back to the Divine Dragon Warship at full speed."
Leng Yue felt it was strange. She asked, "Is there a need to rush? Didn't we agree to go a little deeper? "
Xiao Chen changed his direction and started to rush back. He said slowly, "I have already decided. My next destination will be the island in the core of the Battlefield. It is good to make some preparations."
If one were to ask what was the most dangerous place in the Deep Sea Battlefield, it would naturally be the island in the core.
However, the most dangerous place was the safest place. Even if the people of the Northern Boundless Sea's four great clans rushed over and suspected Xiao Chen, they would not expect him to go to the island.
Xiao Chen would wait until the commotion died down before going out. By then, he would have passed this crisis.
A long time after Xiao Chen and Leng Yue left, a hole suddenly appeared in the space where they had been. The Evil Moon Pavilion's Bai Zhan emerged from it.
As Bai Zhan stood in the air, he held a crystalline mirror in his hand. The scene shown in the mirror was the scene of Xiao Chen killing the Four Young Masters.
"This fellow's perception is really strong. If not for this Void Battle Armor, I would have been discovered."
Bai Zhan looked away from the mirror and looked in the direction that Xiao Chen had taken. He muttered to himself, "I am not surprised that he managed to kill the Four Young Masters. However, I did not expect him to win so easily.
"I have to make a quick trip to the Northern Sea. The scions of the four great clans were all killed. Ha ha! Even if you advance to Martial Monarch, you will not have any chance of surviving."
Bai Zhan's plan was closely linked. Whether the Four Young Masters succeeded or not, Xiao Chen was already in dire straits. From the moment the green-robed young master agreed to make a move, Bai Zhan had thought of all the possibilities and came up with a countermeasure.
On the castle-like Divine Dragon Warship, there was an independent and remote courtyard. Leng Yue crushed a Superior Grade Spirit Stone into powder and carefully drew a complicated formation in the courtyard.
Xiao Chen pushed the door open and entered. Then, he carefully closed the door. Leng Yue raised her head and asked, "Have you bought everything?"
With a thought, Xiao Chen took out a large pile of rare ores from the Universe Ring. He nodded and said, "I do not have many things. However, I did as you said and bought some substitutes. Take a look and see if they are alright."
After Leng Yue spoke, she did not say anything more. She placed the items on the various nodes of the formation.
After everything was done, Leng Yue took a breather. Then, she said, "After I recover, I can activate the Ten Thousand Magic Returning to Origin Formation and help you condense some Magic Energy. Then, we can conduct the blood sacrifice and completely grasp that Scarlet Blood Frost Flame Diagram."
Three days ago, when the two of them returned to the Divine Dragon Warship, Xiao Chen had started to purchase all sorts of materials. He had sold off all the Four Young Masters' wealth in a low-key manner. After that, he spent another two days and finally settled everything today.
After fifteen minutes, Leng Yue finished resting. She got Xiao Chen to enter the center of the formation and sit down cross-legged, preparing to activate the Ten Thousand Magic Returning to Origin Formation.
The purple mark on Leng Yue's forehead flickered. An ancient and noble aura spread out from her body once again. Leng Yue took a deep breath and flicked her finger, sending out six sparks. The sparks landed on the lines made of Spirit Stone powder.
"Boom!" The entire formation burned, giving off a resplendent and dazzling light. All the ores on the nodes of the formation ignited. Then, they turned into one hundred and eight beams of starlight and flew into Xiao Chen's forehead.
As the beams of starlight entered Xiao Chen's sea of consciousness, all of Xiao Chen's Mental Energy surged and burned, turning into a huge clump of golden liquid.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" Xiao Chen's body also gave off tens of thousands of strands of golden light, turning him into a golden man.
Leng Yue quickly formed hand seals with both hands. The Ten Thousand Magic Returning to Origin Formation on the ground spun, and all sorts of lights intertwined.
Xiao Chen's figure turned blurry as he stood in the golden liquid in his sea of consciousness. The golden liquid in his sea of consciousness continued to condense, condense, condense …
As the golden liquid was continuously compressed, Xiao Chen felt that his Mental Energy did not weaken. Instead, it grew stronger.
After an unknown period of time, the golden light on Xiao Chen's body slowly faded. The light of the formation also slowly weakened. That clump of golden liquid was finally compressed to the size of a strand of hair. Then, it floated out of Xiao Chen's forehead.
The hair-sized golden liquid flowed with a dazzling light, illuminating the entire courtyard like it was daytime. Fortunately, this place was very remote. Otherwise, such a mysterious phenomenon would attract countless cultivators to come and take a look.
"Xiao Chen, do it quickly. This is your Magic Energy. It can only last for four seconds," Leng Yue said quickly.
Xiao Chen opened his eyes and said quickly, "Understood!"
Leng Yue had already told Xiao Chen how to use this strand of Magic Energy to carry out the blood sacrifice.
Using some skill, Xiao Chen cut the tip of his index finger. A drop of blood flew out and merged with that strand of golden Magic Energy, entangling with it.
Four seconds passed in merely two breaths of time. Xiao Chen did not dare to delay any longer. He took out the Scarlet Blood Frost Flame Painting from his bosom and waved it, quickly unfurling it.
"Ding!"
The instant the painting unfurled, the strand of Magic Energy infused with Xiao Chen's blood landed on the painting. The four seconds were up.
Xiao Chen suddenly felt excited. As he looked at the painting floating quietly in the air, it felt like the painting had come to life.
This feeling was very miraculous. It was different from the feeling of a Secret Treasure. A Secret Treasure only had a mental connection. However, this Scarlet Blood Frost Flame Painting was a Magic Treasure. It required a connection between one's mind and blood. This Scarlet Blood Frost Flame Painting was already a part of his body.
Xiao Chen issued a command in his heart, and the unfurled Scarlet Blood Frost Flame Painting immediately turned into a beam of dim light and entered Xiao Chen's chest, merging with his blood.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and waved his right hand. The painting instantly appeared in his hand.
Leng Yue walked over and said, "Xiao Chen, this Scarlet Blood Frost Flame Painting is now your Magic Treasure. It is different from a Secret Treasure. If the Magic Treasure is destroyed, you will suffer mental damage of varying degrees.
"You do not have Magic Energy. Compared to a regular Immortal Cultivator, you will suffer mental damage several times more."
Xiao Chen stood up to indicate that he understood. He had already comprehended that Magic Energy relied on Mental Energy. It was similar to how Essence was transformed from Quintessence to Martial Monarchs.
Thus, if a strand of Magic Energy was damaged, it would result in mental damage many times over.
Due to the rules of this world, Xiao Chen could not transform Mental Energy into Magic Energy. However, that did not mean that he would not have a chance in the future.
Xiao Chen did not look at the various wonders of the Scarlet Blood Frost Flame Painting. He put it away and said cautiously, "Let's go. We should head for the core island now."
Leng Yue's eyes revealed some shock. She said, "Ever since you killed the Four Young Masters, you seem to be in a rush."
Xiao Chen revealed a helpless expression. He smiled bitterly and said, "I don't want to. Such a mental state is not suitable for cultivation. However, Bai Zhan is too much of a threat. I originally thought that he would sneak-attack me after the Four Young Masters made their move. However, he did not.
"There is definitely something strange going on. Bai Zhan would not place all his hopes on the Four Young Masters. He definitely knows what kind of person that green-robed young master is. He is just a peak Small Perfection half-step Martial Monarch. "
Leng Yue was very intelligent. She quickly figured out the crux of the matter. She said, "You are afraid that he will inform the Northern Sea's four Noble Clans. However, he does not have any evidence. The four Noble Clans will not be able to do anything to you."
Xiao Chen shook his head slightly and said, "Sometimes, there is no need for evidence to kill someone. All that is needed is suspicion. It is not easy for me to determine what kind of people the four Noble Clans are. So, it is best to be more cautious. Let's go. "
When Leng Yue heard this, she entered deep thought. She recalled some of her own experiences and immediately felt the same way.
--- In the sky above the Eastern Boundless Sea to the Northern Boundless Sea, Bai Zhan operated the Void Battle Armor with all his might. He entered the void and moved at Mach 15.
Without the obstruction of air in the void, a cultivator's speed could be tripled. If they had a Secret Treasure, their speed could be doubled.
The Void Battle Armor was an Inferior Grade Secret Treasure. There were only three Superior Grade Secret Treasures in the entire Evil Moon Pavilion. One of them was in Bai Zhan's hands. This clearly showed Bai Zhan's position in the Evil Moon Pavilion.
If this Secret Treasure was activated at full power, it could only be used once every half a year. However, it could be used continuously for seven days. The Evil Moon Pavilion's Pavilion Master had given it to Bai Zhan to protect his life. Once he entered the void, unless a Sage changed the natural laws, even a peak Martial Monarch would not be able to do anything to him.
"I have already flown for two days. In another four hours, I should be able to reach the headquarters of the Northern Sea Alliance." Bai Zhan calmly calculated the flight time in the void. He smiled and said, "Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen, you forced me to use the Void Battle Armor. Even if you die, you can be proud of yourself."
After Xiao Chen left the huge Divine Dragon Warship, he rushed through the night, heading for the most dangerous place in the third grade Battlefield, the island core.
Along the way, Xiao Chen also explored the various wondrous uses of the Scarlet Blood Flame Frost Diagram. The Scarlet Blood Flame Frost Diagram's predecessor was the Void Projection Diagram. Naturally, its first wondrous use was to capture objects.
Xiao Chen could capture any Demon he saw into the diagram and trap them. After using it a few times, Xiao Chen discovered that capturing an enemy into the diagram was very taxing on Mental Energy.
Furthermore, there were many limitations. First, he could not capture an enemy beyond five hundred meters. Second, he had to be strong. If the enemy he wanted to capture was much stronger than him, it would be very difficult to do so.
The second wondrous use of the Scarlet Blood Flame Frost Diagram was, of course, the Scarlet Blood Frost Flame. Xiao Chen could summon out the flame in the diagram to defend against enemies.
