Cultivation: I have an equipment slot

Hwang Yoon-ah looked delighted.

It landed beside Zhang Yan.

Holding the crystal, Zhang Yan sensed an extremely rich spiritual energy emanating from it.

This tiny piece is equivalent to the spiritual energy contained within roughly a thousand spirit stones.

That's not even the strangest thing.

It also contains extremely faint traces of the Five Elements Daoist principles.

If one absorbs it, one can directly comprehend the Daoist principles within.

"Senior Brother Zhang."

"This item is called Five Elements Yuan Crystal, and it is extremely rare."

"In the outside world, there is only a very small probability of it appearing in spiritual veins of the fifth rank or above."

"It's something you can only come across by chance. I once got a piece that was about half the size of my palm by sheer luck."

"It was with the help of that Five Elements Yuan Crystal that I was able to break through to the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm."

Huang Yun'er stared at the crystal and explained.

Zhang Yan has not been in the Upper Realm for long.

I have never seen this before.

However, after Huang Yun'er explained, Zhang Yan understood very well that this was indeed a treasure.

Generally speaking, Golden Core cultivators comprehend the Daoist principles.

One can only sit idly, contemplating the mysteries of heaven and earth.

However, within these Five Elements Yuan Crystals lies this ethereal and elusive Daoist essence.

Absorbing the Five Elements Essence Crystals for cultivation is much faster than comprehending the universe.

"The world of the Xuanhuang Secret Realm is incomplete."

"That's why these Five Elements Crystals exist."

"Without the nourishment of spiritual veins."

"If this were outside, the Daoist essence within the Five Elements Crystal would have dissipated long ago."

Zhang Yan returned the Five Elements Crystal to Huang Yun'er and said.

The monster was killed by Hwang Yoon-ah.

He wouldn't stoop so low as to steal his junior sister's spoils.

"Senior Brother Zhang."

"You obtained these Five Elements Crystals."

"Besides, you need this more now."

Hwang Yoon-ah quickly tried to refuse.

She was entrusted by Huang Lian to travel with Zhang Yan.

She was already at the peak of the Golden Core stage, and although the Five Elements Yuan Crystals were precious, they were of little use to her anymore.

"No need to say more."

"This island."

"There's no shortage of these monsters, and there must be quite a few Five Elements Crystals as well."

Zhang Yan looked at the rift valley, from which two more monsters emerged, their heads resembling those of ice crystal centipedes.

These monsters are numerous and troublesome.

But it also represents...

Here you can obtain a large amount of Five Elements Crystals!

“Then I will be your senior brother.”

"Find more Five Elements Crystals!"

Huang Yun'er put away the Five Elements Crystal and re-entered the battlefield.

Click!Click!
While talking.

The number of monsters is increasing.

Like a tide, it surged in from all directions.

The number has exceeded three hundred.

Moreover, they no longer come up one by one to their deaths as before.

Instead, it hid behind the combined ice crystal centipede.

At this moment, three ice crystal centipedes, each over 300 meters long, appeared on the ice field.

The aura emanating from his body had reached the peak of the Golden Core stage.

Their heads were filled with five-colored spiritual light, which were three Five Elements Yuan Crystals.

but.

The three of them first had to deal with the three ice crystal centipedes at the peak of the Golden Core stage.

laugh!
The three ice crystal centipedes formed a triangular shape, surrounding the three people, and simultaneously spewed out bone-chilling cold air that even froze the void.

"Why so many?"

Song Qizhen felt a chill run down his spine as he held the magical fan.

It fanned out a tornado ten meters in diameter, trying to sweep away the cold air.

result.

The tornado took shape, its winds raging, yet it could not shake the chilling aura.

Instead, it was chilled by the cold air and ultimately left behind a frozen tornado in the sky!

"This……"

Song Qizhen was dumbfounded.

His Taoist magic was completely suppressed by the monster's chilling aura!
"Junior Brother Song."

"I'll do it!"

"You and Senior Brother Zhang have dealt with these three monsters. Let's retreat and rest first."

Huang Yun'er used her magical silk ribbon to pull Song Qizhen back and said to him.

Although Song Qizhen did not cause any damage to the ice crystal centipede.

But warding off three cold fronts was already a huge help.

Behind Huang Yun'er, the silk ribbon split into eight strands, like eight nimble soft swords, dancing in the air.

Although she was also at the peak of the Golden Core stage, the same level as the monster.

But in terms of strength, they are superior.

If you're fighting alone.

She could completely suppress an ice crystal centipede.

Linglu shattered the ice tornado, and four of its strands simultaneously pierced the ice crystal centipede.

The remaining four rods blocked the other two ends respectively.

Hwang Yoon-ah moved gracefully, twisting and turning in the sky.

The silk and satin fabric fell.

This will allow you to shatter a section of the Ice Crystal Centipede's body.

Give her the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, and she can use four silk ribbons to strangle that ice crystal centipede.

However, she still underestimated this monster.

There seems to be some kind of connection between the three-headed monsters.

The ice crystal centipede was suppressed by four silk ribbons and was constantly being injured.

The body suddenly stopped.

Followed by.

The individual monsters that made up that enormous body separated once again.

Boom boom boom!
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Huang Yun'er annihilated ten ice crystal monsters at the early and middle stages of the Golden Core realm.

However, they did not actually kill it.

The remaining heads fell into the sea of ​​monsters behind them.

Monsters quickly gathered, reconnected, and transformed into a new Frost Centipede!
"Can it be broken down into smaller parts?"

Hwang Yoon-ah and Song Qi-jin were dumbfounded.

If so.

As long as the head isn't destroyed, they can rely on the endless stream of ice crystal monsters.

These three ice crystal centipedes are immortal!

The two had never seen such a bizarre creature before.

The Mysterious Realm of Xuanhuang is indeed extraordinary.

"Senior Brother Zhang."

"Let's go back first."

"Anyway, these monsters are hiding in the snowfield."

"If we find a way to defeat them one by one, we can obtain the Five Elements Crystals."

Faced with this situation, Hwang Yoon-ah had no choice but to settle for second best.

These Five Elements Crystals are not easy to obtain!
Even she couldn't defeat the three ice crystal centipedes working together.

The only way is to return to the edge of the island first.

Once my magic power has recovered to its peak, I will return and defeat them one by one.

talking.

Huang Yun'er gathered the area covered by the eight silk ribbons, preparing to protect Zhang Yan as he left.

Click!

However, it backfired.

From the direction they came from, two more ice crystal centipedes, each over 300 meters long, appeared again.

Five Frost Centipedes have now appeared here.

Each one is at the peak of the Golden Core stage.

"Surrounded!"

Song Qizhen looked around, a wave of panic washing over her.

They were still a step slower.

laugh!
Five ice crystal centipedes surrounded them, once again using that special talent.

An endless chill swept in from all directions.

The goal is to turn the three of them into ice sculptures.

"I come!"

Song Qizhen gritted his teeth and channeled all his late-stage Golden Core power into the magic weapon.

It unleashed a massive tornado with a diameter of twenty meters.

Even if we can't defeat this Frost Centipede.

It can also block some or two.

However, with the addition of two more Frost Centipedes, the power of the cold wave increased dramatically.

The tornado remained frozen, and the chilling air continued unabated, instead forming a cage that threatened to freeze the three of them.

Fortunately, there's still Hwang Yoon-ah.

Eight strands of silk shone with a dazzling white light, weaving together to form a protective shield that kept the cold air at bay.

The three hid behind the silk and satin, thus escaping disaster once again.

"No."

"Five ice crystal centipedes joined forces."

"I can't hold them off either." "I have a one-time use magic weapon left to me by my master. I'll blast open this ice prison, and we'll rush out together in a bit."

Huang Yun'er frowned, and with a flick of her right hand, a one-time use magic weapon resembling an iron gall appeared.

The cold wave was terrifying.

In order to withstand this attack.

Her silk robes were already immobilized.

If they don't reveal their trump card soon, the three of them might be trapped here.

Bang!
Before Huang Yun'er could make a move, the ice prison suddenly shattered.

It turned out to be an ice crystal centipede that used its body as a whip to shatter the ice prison.

Eight strands of silk are ultimately not a defensive magic weapon.

After being struck hard, it lost control of its magic and turned into ordinary silk, which was then returned to Huang Yun'er's hands.

"puff!"

Huang Yun'er was struck as if by a heavy blow; she coughed up blood and her body went limp.

"Senior Sister Huang!"

Song Qizhen felt he had more strength than he could muster, and wished he could fight that ice crystal centipede to the death.

Zhang Yan was standing next to Huang Yun'er.

Zhang Yan reached out and supported Huang Yun'er, helping her suppress the surging magical power.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Zhang."

Huang Yun'er thanked him and was about to use her one-time use magic weapon.

"give it to me."

But Zhang Yan shook his head and pressed down on Huang Yun'er's shoulder.

next moment.

hum!
The buzzing sound of the flying sword resounded through the sky, clear and melodious.

Behind Zhang Yan, countless flying swords appeared like a long river of flying swords.

The cold light flowing along the blade exuded a chilling sharpness!
A full three hundred and sixty flying swords!
Moreover, each one is a top-grade Tier 3 flying sword!

"This……"

Hwang Yoon-ah and Song Qi-jin were both stunned.

"punish!"

Zhang Yan didn't even need to form a sword formation to control his flying sword.

Three hundred and sixty top-grade level three flying swords, each one, when they landed on the monster, were as easy as cutting tofu!
shhhhhh!
The sound of breaking air continued to ring out.

The ice crystal centipede that injured Huang Yun'er was pierced through by a hundred swords and cut into a hundred pieces.

The body parts alone were scattered over an area of ​​hundreds of meters.

As for the remaining four ice crystal centipedes...

It didn't even have a chance to disintegrate; its head was pierced by a flying sword, and it was completely annihilated.

Zhang Yan noticed it just now.

We must kill this hybrid monster; we must destroy its head.

finally.

Leaving behind a pile of corpses, the flying sword returned to Zhang Yan's side.

He also brought back five Five Elements Crystals, each about the size of a thumb, for Zhang Yan.

"Senior Brother Zhang."

"Aren't you in the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm?"

"With your strength, even three of me wouldn't be a match for you."

Huang Yun'er stared wide-eyed at Zhang Yan, exclaiming in amazement.

They only received information that they should try their best to protect Zhang Yan.

Huang Lian didn't tell them.

Zhang Yan is someone who can easily kill someone at the peak of the Golden Core stage.

Moreover, those 360 ​​flying swords were truly astonishing.

Generally, only those at the peak of the Golden Core stage can possess a top-grade third-tier magic weapon.

That is, the Divine Weapon Pavilion.

They are famous for crafting weapons and are very wealthy.

Therefore, all the disciples who came to the Xuanhuang Secret Realm possessed top-grade third-tier magic treasures.

But they dared not even imagine a Golden Core disciple.

I have over three hundred top-grade third-tier magic weapons!

With so many flying swords combined, wouldn't that cost tens of millions of spirit stones?
Just thinking about this astronomical figure...

Huang Yun'er and Song Qizhen were speechless.

"Senior Brother Zhang."

"You're so amazing."

"Why didn't you make a move sooner?"

Song Qizhen looked at Zhang Yan, scratched his head, and asked with a hint of resentment.

"Along the way."

Did you even give me a chance to make a move?

Zhang Yan remained calm and asked in return with a smile.

"Too."

Song Qizhen gave a wry smile.

Before they even entered the Xuanhuang Secret Realm, they knew that Zhang Yan only had the cultivation level of the mid-stage Golden Core realm.

I instinctively felt that I had to protect Zhang Yan.

Who would have thought.

Of the three, Zhang Yan has the highest status, the lowest cultivation level, but the strongest overall strength.

This reason was sufficient, and neither Hwang Yoon-ah nor Song Ki-jin said anything more.

"but."

"Thanks to you all along the way."

"Please accept these things."

Zhang Yan wasn't the type to act innocent after getting a good deal. After the joke, he took out healing pills and pills to restore his mana and gave them to the two of them.

As the senior disciple, one should naturally bear the responsibilities of the senior disciple.

Besides.

He flicked his finger and took out two Five Elements Crystals, giving them to the two of them.

"Senior brother."

"I didn't put in much effort."

"I cannot accept these Five Elements Crystals."

Song Qizhen held the Five Elements Crystal, feeling unworthy of it.

"You've already started calling me senior brother."

"Take good care of what your senior brother gave you."

Zhang Yan only made a joke and did not take it back.

Although he acts like a senior student, he doesn't come across as annoying.

This Five Elements Crystal is priceless in the outside world.

But Zhang Yan was willing to take it out.

"Thank you, senior brother!"

Song Qizhen's face lit up with joy, and she quickly thanked him.

We've dealt with these monsters.

Hwang Yoon-ah and Song Qi-jin have clearly different attitudes towards Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan led the two to a glacier, where they carved out an ice cave to rest.

While the two were healing their injuries and recovering their magical power, Zhang Yan was experiencing the effects of the Five Elements Crystal.

As Hwang Yoon-ah said.

The Five Elements Yuan Crystal contains the Daoist principles of the Five Elements.

Everything in the universe is derived from the Five Elements.

Different cultivators comprehend different aspects of the Dao.

Only a portion of the Daoist essence within these Five Elements Yuan Crystals can be absorbed.

Even if it's just a part, it's still incredibly precious.

For Zhang Yan.

He has already comprehended the Daoist principles of the Five Elements.

He can absorb the Five Elements Yuan Crystal completely, including all the Daoist principles contained within it.

The utilization rate is close to 100%!
Zhang Yan held a piece of Five Elements Yuan Crystal and began to absorb the Daoist essence within it.

Five kinds of spiritual light manifested, transforming into mysterious and illusory Dao patterns.

As the magical power circulated throughout the body, it eventually merged into Zhang Yan's Nine Aperture Golden Elixir.

Immersed in cultivation.

A day passed in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Yan opened his eyes, and the Five Elements Yuan Crystal in his hand was slightly dim.

"A piece of Five Elements Crystal about the size of a thumb."

"It can support my cultivation for five days."

"At this rate, if we always have Five Elements Crystals available for cultivation..."

"I will be able to break through to the late stage of the Golden Core realm within two years!"

Zhang Yan sensed the remaining power within the crystal and pondered in his heart.

If it were outside...

Such extravagant cultivation is something most people wouldn't even dare to dream of.

But here, that's reality.

They only explored less than one ten-thousandth of the island.

As long as the Ice Crystal Centipede can be killed, there will be no shortage of Five Elements Crystals!
boom!
Suddenly, the iceberg shook violently.

"Senior Brother, Senior Sister Huang."

"Thirteen ice crystal centipedes have appeared outside!"

Song Qizhen, at the outermost edge of the ice cave, was the first to detect the situation outside.

"so much?"

Huang Yun'er was somewhat surprised to hear this, as her injuries had already healed.

But I didn't panic.

Both of their gazes turned to Zhang Yan at the same time.

With Zhang Yan present, the three of them working together could not be unable to deal with these thirteen ice crystal centipedes.

"They came to us of their own accord."

"That's just to save us from wasting any more time."

Zhang Yan chuckled softly and rushed out of the ice cave first. (End of Chapter)
