I can gather experience beads

"Who on earth is this guy? How dare he so boldly intrude into the fight between our two teams!" said a hot-tempered swordsman among the Seven Swordsmen.

"Hmph, does he really think he can compete with our two organizations by himself? Does he really think of himself as Sun Daoyi? He is simply overestimating his own abilities and not knowing his own life!" Another cultivator also echoed.

Cao Rui's sudden action undoubtedly completely angered the dozen or so monks from the two teams.

In an instant, waves of magical power were seen, and it was foreseeable that a series of magical powers would bombard Cao Rui in an overwhelming manner.

Cao Rui seemed unusually calm and composed.

Since he chose to join this fierce battle alone, he must have made sufficient preparations in advance.

Just when those magical powers were about to be cast, he shouted softly: "Divine Capture!"

Immediately afterwards, a spiritual force that had been prepared long ago suddenly burst out from him.

In the blink of an eye, abstract black holes appeared out of thin air in the consciousness of many monks.

This black hole seemed to have an endless suction force, which immediately disrupted the minds of most of the cultivators, causing the magical spells they were performing to lose control and fail midway.

Only a few stronger cultivators, relying on their profound cultivation and firm will, were barely able to quickly get rid of the influence of [Divine Capture] and continue to control their magical powers to attack Cao Rui.

However, these few magical powers alone could not cause a fatal blow to Cao Rui.

Suddenly, a dazzling light flashed on Cao Rui's body surface, and then a lifelike tortoise shell slowly emerged.

The tortoise shell tightly wrapped Cao Rui's entire body.

Several powerful magical powers were all blocked by this tortoise shell.

This is exactly the magical power of [Xuanwu Transformation] that Cao Rui practiced - [Xuanwu Turtle Shell]!

This magical power can not only greatly enhance physical strength, but also has a very significant effect in resisting various magical attacks.

However, it must be said that the power contained in these magical powers should not be underestimated.

Although they were successfully blocked by the extremely defensive [Black Tortoise Shell], after these fierce collisions, the surface of the [Black Tortoise Shell] flickered and the light flickered, and it was obviously approaching the limit of what it could withstand.

At the same time, Cao Rui himself was constantly gathering magic power to supply [Black Tortoise Shell] to defend against attacks, causing the magic power in his body to quickly dissipate like a dam bursting, consuming a huge amount of mana.

However, the time of resistance was enough for Cao Rui to take action.

While Tianji had not yet accelerated his movement, Cao Rui, who had already approached Tianji, used his powerful magic power without hesitation and instantly condensed a huge magical palm.

He just swung his hand with lightning speed, easily grasped the secret, sealed it and stuffed it into the jade bottle that he had prepared in his hand.

What was surprising was that when Cao Rui looked carefully, he found that he was extremely lucky this time and actually captured an extremely good secret!

This is the first time that Cao Rui has successfully plundered the first supreme secret since he stepped into this mysterious red cloud vortex!

Seeing that the secret had fallen firmly into his hands, Cao Rui did not dare to delay for a moment. He immediately raised the ethereal cloak on his body in a dashing manner, and with a flash of his figure, he rushed straight towards the void above like an arrow.

There is a unique advantage in this outer space - no matter which direction you go, the road ahead is wide and you can freely control the void to fly and escape.

Therefore, if one wants to completely encircle and blockade the target in the starry sky, the number of monks required is simply an astronomical figure.

Upon seeing this, one of the Seven Swordsmen who was skilled in flying at an extremely fast speed immediately chased after him and tried to stop Cao Rui.

However, to his frustration, even though he tried his best to speed up, he was still unable to close the distance between him and Cao Rui.

Seeing the gap between the two sides getting bigger and bigger, the sword cultivator finally had no choice but to give up chasing and watched Cao Rui disappear in front of him.

"Top-level divine consciousness and defense abilities... Who is this person?"

Although the monks from the Seven Swords and Dawn looked unhappy, after taking note of Cao Rui's information, they quickly dispersed to look for their next target.

Sulking in the central area is undoubtedly a waste of time.

There were many monks passing by and watching the show.

The monks who were watching silently uploaded the photo of Cao Rui's information to their own star maps, and sent Cao Rui's information to their companions and friends.

In this way, Cao Rui began to operate in the central area.

As Cao Rui actively participated in various plunders, the number of battles increased.

His message was quickly spread to the monks in the central area.

Because of his fast air speed, Cao Rui was given a very vivid nickname: Cloaked Monster.

......

Time flies by and months pass in a flash.

During this period, Cao Rui had been active in the central area to capture the secrets of heaven, and had already become a well-known figure in a corner of the central area.

On this day, he once again successfully captured a fresh and exquisite secret.

Those who were vying for this divine secret were all individual cultivators, and seven or eight combat cultivators followed behind Cao Rui, chasing him unwillingly.

Cao Rui's ethereal skin fluttered, and he rode away into the distance.

After getting rid of the pursuit of other monks, he stuffed the secret into the jade bottle.

After storing the secrets, Cao Rui subconsciously took a look into the jade bottle. The amount of secrets inside was already quite considerable.

Moreover, the quality of the secrets captured in the central area is astonishingly high.

Basically, every secret of heaven starts from the top grade, and there are some that can be called the best.

If you calculate carefully, the ratio between the best and the most powerful secrets is approximately seven to three.

In this central area where there are plenty of secrets, relying on Cao Rui's strength, at the end of the day, as long as his magic power is not consumed too much during the plundering process, he can at least successfully plunder ten secrets.

After several months of unremitting efforts, Cao Rui has now accumulated more than a thousand secrets of heaven.

These secrets are not only numerous, but also of excellent quality.

Looking at the full jade bottle in front of him, Cao Rui secretly estimated it.

Judging from the current accumulation speed and the quality of the Heavenly Secrets, perhaps in another year or two, when he has digested and absorbed these Heavenly Secrets together with the experience beads, it should be enough to support himself in breaking through his current realm and being promoted to the peak of Refining Void in one fell swoop!

In the relatively fierce battle for the secrets of heaven just now, Cao Rui directly used [Divine Descent] to control those warriors, consuming a lot of mana.

He arrived at a relatively secluded place, crossed his legs, sat in the air, and quietly began to recover his depleted magic power.

This is the central area where energy is extremely abundant. Here, the speed at which mana recovers is beyond imagination.

Cao Rui was seen using all his strength to operate the [Chaos Spiritual Energy], like an efficiently operating machine, madly absorbing the rich energy around him.

In just a few minutes, the magic power that was originally empty in his body was completely replenished.

"The speed at which my mana recovers is so fast." Cao Rui felt the mana filling up his body, and his fighting power recovered again.

In this central area where dangers are lurking everywhere and fierce fighting may break out at any time, it is absolutely crucial to keep your magic power full at all times.

Because no one can predict whether they will be suddenly attacked by a powerful enemy in the next second. If there is not enough magic power to support the secret of heaven in front of them, they will not be able to plunder it.

Cao Rui was cautious by nature, and the first thing he would do after every battle was to restore his magic power.

Thinking back on the countless battles he had fought in the past few months, the most thrilling and heart-stirring battle only consumed about two-thirds of Cao Rui's magic power.

When he decided to leave, he still retained a full one-third of his mana for emergencies...

Now that I think about it, it was an extremely wise decision to resolutely advance to the late stage of refining emptiness before coming to the world outside the sky to venture out!

Although Cao Rui, who was in the middle stage of the Void Refining Realm after the Battle Cultivation Conference, was still quite powerful in combat, his durability was far from as good as it is now due to his relatively low magic power.

If he had not been promoted to the late stage of refining emptiness, it would have been extremely difficult to adapt to the rhythm of fighting in the central area with his current mana.

Next, once he successfully breaks through to the peak level of Refining Void, the mana in his body will double again.

By then, his combat endurance will be further greatly improved, enough to cope with more difficult combat scenarios.

After recovering his magic power, Cao Rui stood up, expanded his spiritual sense, and explored the situation around him.

Finding there was no sign of heaven around, he began to fly.

Although the central area only occupies a small part of the red cloud vortex, it would take Cao Rui more than ten days to cross it.

Just took a cup of tea.

Cao Rui sensed a strong energy fluctuation in front of him that was transmitted into his spiritual perception.

"This is......"

Cao Rui quickly raised his cloak and hurried forward.

Sure enough, a large number of monks were gathering ahead.

At the center of convergence, streams of materialized transparent energy spread out in a ripple-like manner.

A new wave of heavenly secrets is about to be born!
