Inside the Black Sea, Nan Gong Huai Yu burned his cultivation and self-destructed his enlivener in an attempt to die with Ling Xian.
If this was before, Ling Xian would have no way of defending against this attack. But it was different now. His Qi was already stronger than Nan Gong Huai Yu's. On top of that, he had six heavenly weapons. Naturally, he was able to suppress him easily.
Then, Nan Gong Huai Yu's body turned into a mist of blood and was drowned by the sea.
This caused everyone present to stare with their eyes wide open. They felt a chill rush up to their heads, and it was as if they'd fallen into an icy pit.
"He's dead. The top genius of the Barren State has actually died in battle!"
"Unbelievable! Who is this person? Even Nangong Huai Yu is no match for him? "
"I can't believe it. Nan Gong Huai Yu's last move was to self-destruct his original enlivener. Just how powerful is this person?"
Everyone spoke one after another, their voices filled with shock.
Defeating Nan Gong Huai Yu was one thing, but suppressing his self-destruction. Just how powerful was that person?
How could they not be shocked?
"It's over. I wonder if I will meet the other three in the future."
Ling Xian shook his head softly. Remembering the Heaven's Favorites who battled a few days ago, his lips curled up into a mysterious smile.
"Master, after the transformation, you have indeed reached the peak of the Nascent Soul Level." Feng Jiu Ge's eyes lit up.
"Yeah, the Nirvana Fountain of Real Phoenixes sure is a holy place." Ling Xian grinned, very satisfied with his current capabilities.
If this was before, Nan Gong Huai Yu could definitely threaten his life. If he wasn't careful, he would die.
Yet before his eyes, Nan Gong Huai Yu couldn't even threaten him. The gap between them was far too big. It was like the difference between the clouds and the mud.
"That is because you are talented and have a good foundation. If you didn't, you wouldn't have made it this far." Feng Jiu Ge smiled, her eyes shone with admiration.
"You're not bad either. Your current battle prowess is not inferior to mine."
Ling Xian grinned. A pure-blooded phoenix was one of the strongest beasts. It was as famous as the humankind's nine sage bodies. Its battling abilities were all insanely powerful.
Therefore, he believed that the Feng Jiu Ge right now was definitely a top-notch Heaven's Favorite and no weaker than himself!
"Master, you flatter me."
Feng Jiu Ge blushed slightly, feeling a little embarrassed. However, being complimented by Ling Xian made her feel sweet.
"Alright, let's go see what's on the ship."
Ling Xian waved his hand and marched forward in giant steps with his head held high.
In an instant, the black sea surged, and the waves reached high into the sky, automatically parting to the two sides.
Everyone on the boat subconsciously stepped back as well. The way they looked at Ling Xian was full of awe.
Even Nan Gong Huai Yu was suppressed by him. Why wouldn't these people be afraid? They were all silently retreating, afraid that they would accidentally provoke Ling Xian and be killed by him.
At this, Ling Xian shook his head and continued to march towards the ship. It was as if a supreme being had set out, looking down on the three thousand worlds, his divine might shaking the nine heavens.
A moment later, he and Feng Jiu Ge boarded the ancient ship.
This made everyone retreat even further. Every single one of them retreated to the back. They didn't even have the courage to approach Ling Xian.
What could they do? He was too terrifying. Even Nan Gong Huai Yu was killed by him. Who would dare to get close?
If they accidentally angered him, they wouldn't even have a place to cry.
Therefore, everyone retreated. Many people even left the ship and headed deeper into the ocean.
This made Ling Xian speechless. He didn't think he would leave such a big shadow on them that they would be this scared.
"Master, they seem to be treating you like a demon." Feng Jiu Ge chuckled.
"Let them be."
Ling Xian shook his head and ignored everyone's fear. He shifted his gaze back to the body of the ship.
The body of the ship was broken beyond recognition. Many places were rotting. Everywhere on the ship, there were blood stains. Even after being washed by the sea, the blood stains never faded.
Remember that this was a war weapon, the Ship of Breakthroughs. Its defense was extremely sturdy. Yet it was beaten to such a state. It was obvious how tragic the war back then was.
"What a tragic war. Even the Ship of Breakthroughs is in this state." Ling Xian exclaimed. Then, he marched forward and arrived at the cargo hold of the Ship of Breakthroughs.
This type of war weapon is usually used to transport all sorts of resources. Therefore, the first place he thought of was the cargo hold.
When he arrived, the cultivators who were looking for him were startled. Without another word, they turned around and left.
This made Ling Xian even more speechless. He didn't think these cultivators would be so afraid of him.
"Oh well, they all left anyway. I will take my time looking."
Ling Xian shook his head with a smile. He shifted his gaze to the mountain of treasures inside the cargo hold. With just a glance, he was somewhat disappointed.
Because all the treasures were now trash.
The medicinal Dans have changed, the treasures have lost their spirituality, and all sorts of cultivation resources have been wasted.
"They are all trash after all." Ling Xian softly sighed. He had predicted this result.
After all, this ship has existed for who knows how long. Even if there were many treasures, they had long been obliterated by the power of time.
"It seems like this ship is worthless."
Ling Xian felt a little regretful. Just then, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a heavy Halberd stuck in the ground to his right.
It was around one meter long and completely black. Though it was not emitting any Qi, it gave off a heavy feeling. No matter how much the sea water washed over it, it remained unmoving.
"This halberd …" Ling Xian frowned. He scanned it with his Qi and his eyes brightened.
Because he realized that though this halberd had lost its spirituality, the material it was made from was undamaged. The material used to make this weapon was the legendary Steel of the Underworld.
This type of heavenly material was extremely rare and priceless. Out of all the heavenly materials, it was one of the best.
Legend had it that treasures made from this material not only have outstanding offensive and defensive abilities, but it can also affect the opponent's mentality and make them feel as if they have fallen into hell.
It was because of this that this heavenly material was named the Steel of the Underworld. It meant that it could be brought into the underworld.
"I can't believe I ran into a piece of Steel of the Underworld. Not bad. I didn't come here for nothing." The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up, revealing a joyous smile.
Though this halberd was now useless, the Steel of the Underworld was as good as new. If he melts it down, he will be able to get himself a priceless heavenly material.
Therefore, Ling Xian was naturally ecstatic.
Then, he placed the black halberd into his pouch and searched around the cargo hold. Sadly, without exception, all the treasures were corroded by the power of time and turned into a pile of scrap metal.
Ling Xian was not disappointed at this. To be able to acquire a piece of Steel of the Underworld was already a shocking gain.
How many cultivators have sacrificed their lives here and gained nothing?
"Let's go. I think the real good stuff is deeper inside."
Ling Xian softly grinned and his eyes flickered with anticipation, "I do not believe that the Second Forbidden Ground, where countless cultivators are risking their lives to enter, doesn't have any shocking treasures."
Then, he mentally called out and the Winged Blitz reappeared. The moment it appeared, it created giant waves that shocked everyone on the ship.
"Jiu Ge, let's go."
Ling Xian's wings fluttered and he broke through the black sea and headed towards the bottom of the sea.
