Start from refining weapons in Doupo Xiuxian

"Why is this happening?" Gu Xun'er asked curiously.

Zi Yan explained, "Because of the environment these sea creatures inhabit, the low-level humans they encounter are the weakest in the ocean. Only the higher-ups of the sea creatures know the terrifying dominance of the higher-level humans."

"So that's how it is." A hint of understanding flashed in the eyes of Gu Xun'er and others. The monsters on the Douqi Continent also have this mentality. In the early stage, the monsters of the same level will be stronger, but in the later stage, the human race is ridiculously strong.

As everyone chatted along the way, they soon arrived at the edge of the Deep Sea City, near a wall of annihilation that looked like a black abyss.

At the same time, they also found many powerful mermaids maintaining order. The king of mermaids, Venerable Canglan, was floating directly in the front. Under the gaze of all the sea creatures, he leaned against the wall of the ancient sea and meditated silently.

Jiang Lin and others mingled among the sea creatures and discovered that there were tens of thousands of them scattered in small groups nearby. Jiang Lin even saw acquaintances he had met when he came to the Mermaid City last time. However, there were so many fish and eyes here that Jiang Lin did not say hello. He just stood side by side with Hun Ke'er, hovering at the front of his team, silently looking at the abyss wall behind the Canglan Venerable that looked like black fog.

Everyone around was very quiet, as if they knew the rules here, and Jiang Lin and others did not want to attract attention, so they did not speak.

However, Jiang Lin also discovered that the sea people in certain areas did not come to the mermaid tribe to participate in the Ancient Sea Trial because there was not only one entrance to the Ancient Sea Trial, but only three entrances that were relatively safe and stable. The three entrances just corresponded to the three holy tribes in the Ancient Sea world.

In some special places, if other sea creatures are lucky, they may accidentally enter the trial world through some cracks.

Finally, perhaps because he felt that everyone was present or the time was ripe, the elderly-looking Canglan Zun suddenly opened his cloudy eyes, and an invisible and terrifying pressure instantly enveloped the entire city. The terrifying aura of the Nine-Star Dou Zun directly slowed down the heartbeats of all the sea creatures present.

But this breath came quickly and went away quickly. In a short moment, Venerable Canglan withdrew his breath, stood in front of the abyss sea wall, looked up at the large black mass of sea creatures surrounding him, his gaze lingered slightly in the direction of Jiang Lin and others, and then swept to other places.

"The time has come, the Dragon Gate must open." Venerable Canglan's words were very brief, without any nonsense. When the voice fell, she waved to the void, and a sacred and gorgeous ocean scepter broke through the void and appeared in her hand.

Mermaid Ocean Scepter: An eighth-level top-level Horcrux!

At this time, Jiang Lin finally looked carefully at the Ocean Scepter in the hands of Venerable Canglan, and was surprised to find that when the Ocean Scepter was taken out, it seemed to suddenly form an invisible field, making the surrounding sea water become a little special.

"This is the key. There are three of the same key." Hun Ke'er explained in a low voice.

"These three keys have existed since ancient times, but they were later refined to make their effects more stable."

Jiang Lin and others nodded silently to show their understanding.

Then they saw the Blue Lord, who said nothing, holding the Ocean Scepter and throwing it directly towards the abyss sea wall behind him without looking back.

The Ocean Scepter instantly transformed into a stream of blue light and vanished into the abyssal sea wall. Ripples then slowly spread, and Jiang Lin and the others were surprised to discover that the spatial ripples had spread across several kilometers.

"The interval of the black tide is uncertain, so teams trying to enter the Dragon Gate, please go ahead." After finishing everything, Venerable Canglan left this sentence, and then sat down cross-legged in the sea water, closed her eyes and began to sleep. The terrifying Dou Qi fluctuations formed a terrifying Dou Qi sun around her, making the sea area near the bottomless abyss sea wall a little clearer.

"It's so shabby?" Xiao Yan and the others were a little surprised. They had thought that Venerable Canglan would belabor the point for a long time before opening the door, but unexpectedly, it opened the moment the time came? And why was there no movement when the time came? Where was the grandeur and splendor of a secret realm opening? Is this a fake secret realm?

"Most of the teams can't get out, so there's no need to waste time talking. For the human race, the intervals between each opening of the Ancient Sea Secret Realm are very long, but for the sea people, any sea people with a little power would have already explained everything to their own geniuses, so there's no need for Venerable Canglan to be sentimental." Seeing that other sea people began to flock to the abyss sea wall that was causing ripples in space, Hun Ke'er explained to Xiao Yan and the others.

"Most importantly, every team inside could be an enemy. The Mermaid Royal Family has committed numerous atrocities there, so the Sea Clan, who already believe in the law of the jungle, don't like to talk nonsense." Inside the secret realms of the Dou Qi Continent, the powerful from various sects and families gather outside, arguing and complaining for a long time, because everyone still needs a little dignity. But the Sea Clan doesn't, because the Ancient Sea Trial is their 'Independence Day.' You can do whatever you want inside. If you're strong enough, then let the Mermaid Royal Family devour you, and then when you emerge, the Mermaids won't say anything.

However, generally speaking, this is not the case, because the Mermaid Royal Family's enemies within the Ancient Sea Secret Realm are mainly the Sea Clan on the Shark Clan's side. In front of other Sea Clan forces, the Mermaid Royal Family is relatively neutral, and everyone will still give each other face.

"No wonder these sea creatures don't say a word. It makes people feel depressed." Xiao Yan swallowed subconsciously. He noticed that many of the sea creatures nearby were Dou Huang. Xiao Yan felt that it was a bit difficult for him to deal with such a being.

Because he is now in the deep sea, and fighting with the Douhuang sea creatures of the same realm in the deep sea environment is too damn disadvantageous.

"Get ready to enter." Seeing that the sea creatures had almost entered, Hun Ke'er said to Jiang Lin and others.

"Be careful." Yao Chen and Yao Tianhuo reminded Xiao Yan and the others, and then the soul ring was taken away by Hun Ke'er.

Hun Ke'er took the two soul rings, then looked at Jiang Lin silently for a while, and finally said in a deep voice: "Watch your head."

"Hmm?" This sentence suddenly made Jiang Lin a little confused. He wanted to ask something, but Hun Ke'er had already retreated. Seeing this, Jiang Lin thought for a moment, then nodded, and took Xiao Yan and others to swim towards the abyss sea wall where the water was extremely cold.

"Connect your fighting spirit, rush straight forward, and ignore everything else." Jiang Lin left these words to the people around him, and then he rushed towards the deep sea wall where ripples in space were appearing!

Buzz.

In the black sticky fog, Jiang Lin felt as if his body was wrapped in a thin film. The pressure around him was getting greater and greater. It might be a little difficult for an ordinary Dou Wang to move, but Jiang Lin was directly immune to it. Then the next moment, a chill came over him, making Jiang Lin shiver uncontrollably.

hum!

Suddenly, a gust of evil wind hit. Jiang Lin raised his hand to block it, but soon he found that the evil wind directly penetrated his body. The surrounding black fog was instantly blown away like yellow sand. Then Jiang Lin suddenly realized that it was daybreak?!

The next moment he looked up, he found that he had appeared in a dim desert without knowing when. Behind him was a black fog battlefield, and he was the first person to pass through the black fog.

Behind him, as the black fog was blown away, Xiao Yan, Xiao Yixian, Gu Xun'er, Zi Yan, Xiao Lan, Cai Lin and others were all blown out one after another.

"Where is this? Brother Lin, how did we suddenly get here?" Xiao Yan put down his arm that was blocking the evil wind, and all he saw was a desert. The sky was dim, and a blood-red sun hung in the sky directly above him.

"Ancient Sea World." Jiang Lin looked at the yellow sand world in front of him with a normal expression. The black fog and sandstorm behind him was blowing rapidly towards the distance, and then slowly dissipated, leaving only Xiao Yan and the other seven.

"Jiang Lin, do you have any explanation?" Gu Xun'er led everyone forward and asked.

Clearly, many people entered together just now, but strangely, they were the only ones who entered here.

Jiang Lin glanced at Gu Xun'er, then shook his head and said, "We should have entered a new space, but it's not very clear."

"But we can explore a bit, we should be able to find other people nearby."

As he spoke, Jiang Lin spread his fighting spirit wings and flew into the sky with a group of people, trying to find other traces around.

Soon, after flying quickly for a while, they found a large ruin in the yellow sand.

"Jiang Lin, there is something there!" Zi Yan had excellent eyesight and immediately said when she saw something in the distance.

"Well, let's go and take a look." Jiang Lin nodded silently, then flew quickly towards the ruins in the yellow sand.

After a while, among the rubble, Jiang Lin silently stomped on the head of Cai Lin, who was at the peak of the nine-star Douhuang realm, and the next moment, the strange fire attacked, but was repelled by the lotus energy rising from Jiang Lin. The next moment, Jiang Lin's figure flashed and he smashed Xiao Yan's head with a punch.

Looking at the familiar corpses all over the ground, Jiang Lin opened his mouth calmly. A terrifying suction force came, and all the corpses around him entered his stomach. With a crash, the illusory divine spiritual fire rose up, and the flesh and blood melted instantly, turning into a pure source of life, which restored all the Dou Qi energy that Jiang Lin had consumed, and even had a surplus, and his cultivation level improved a little.

"Strange." Jiang Lin stood on the ruined city, looking at the familiar layout, his eyes flashing with strange light.

"How is the strange fire simulated?" Jiang Lin was a little confused.

"It's normal that you don't understand." At this time, the Nine-You Bird in Jiang Lin's body suddenly laughed, "The Secret Realm of the Ancient Sea, this place can be called the 'Inner World'. Whatever exists in the outside world, we can also find it here."

"I understand, but these guys are so bold that they would take action so quickly?" Jiang Lin was a little confused.

"With the phantom of a Nine-Star Douhuang at the peak in hand, I will naturally be confident." Jiuyou Que replied.

"Will my phantom appear at Xiao Yixian's place? If they are all so strong, then we're doomed." Although he felt that it was a little impossible, Jiang Lin was still a little worried.

"No, you are not on the same level." The Jiuyou Bird in Jiang Lin's body shook its head and said, "According to the rules, you will only go deeper layer by layer, but you are different. You are being targeted."

"Yeah." Jiang Lin nodded.

The moment he entered the secret realm, he realized that all the team members behind him were fake.

why?

Because when Jiang Lin asked them to connect their fighting spirit, he used a crystal core in his body to connect.

At first Jiang Lin was not very sure, but when Gu Xun'er called him Jiang Lin, Jiang Lin understood.

Later, in order to prevent mistakes, he took everyone to fly again, and found that the four Dou Wangs in the team could actually fly. Finally, he found that Cai Lin was not familiar with the terrain of the Tagor Desert here, and the ruins here were actually a bit similar to the Temple of Medusa. No need to think about it, just kill them all.

"At that time, you were asked not to connect with other people in order to prevent them from being pulled into the upper levels by you and causing accidents. You are fine, but others who enter the upper levels without any preparation may die inexplicably. Now it seems that the prevention is okay." Jiuyou Que said lightly.

"How do I get down?" Jiang Lin asked.

“In principle, no.”

"But you hold the principles now."

"This?" Jiang Lin pulled open his collar, revealing the mysterious fragment hanging on his chest.

Chapter 602 Qiankun Creation Emperor Cauldron!

"You were able to deal with those phantoms so easily because you came to this floor too early."

"The other world doesn't know enough about the abilities and other skills of your friends, which is why these phantoms have such big flaws. Otherwise, you would have wasted a lot of time here." Jiuyou Que's voice sounded silently in Jiang Lin's heart.

"Hmm?" Amidst the dim desert, Jiang Lin, dressed in a black robe and dark face, stood atop a broken wall. He gazed down at the familiar 'Medusa Temple', his brows furrowing unconsciously. He thought to himself, this so-called secret realm of the ancient sea is truly bizarre.

"If that's the case, then what is the meaning of this?" Jiang Lin asked.

The information provided by Hun Keer indicated that the Ancient Sea Secret Realm had a total of nine levels, and the area he was currently in was the sixth level, named "Inner Realm".

The super powers in the Dou Qi plane also don’t know the true meaning of the nine-level space in the ancient sea secret realm, and in the end they can only use a name that they can understand.

The inner world of the inner world.

"The Sixth Realm is a special world. Logically, it can appear between any worlds. In other words, when you start from the First Realm, there's a chance you'll directly enter the Sixth Realm. Once you've broken through the Sixth Realm, you'll reach the other realms."

"In essence, the nine levels of interface within the Ancient Sea Secret Realm are considered nine levels of test. It depends on whether you are willing to take the risk." Jiuyou Que shook his head.

"The third, sixth, and ninth realms are all special realms that will automatically open. Even if you don't want to choose, they will still come."

The so-called nine realms in the ancient sea secret realm are not stacked layer by layer, but nine levels of trials. However, three of the trials will appear actively and may even attack you when you are not paying attention.

The Sixth Realm test Jiang Lin was currently undergoing was arguably the least intense. This was because the Sixth Realm was just like the Sixth Realm: the longer it was delayed, the more subtle and terrifying it became. However, Jiang Lin encountered it too early, right after entering. The Ancient Sea Secret Realm hadn't even begun to understand Xiao Yan and the others before it had already brought Jiang Lin here.

"Your current situation is that the Ancient Sea Secret Realm has opened a small sixth realm just for you, so as long as you break through here, you will naturally be able to return to where you should be." Jiuyou Que explained to Jiang Lin.

"I understand." Jiang Lin thought for a moment and understood what his current situation was and what the operating rules of the Ancient Sea Secret Realm were.

Firstly, the 'nine levels' of the Ancient Sea Secret Realm don't refer to space, but rather to 'nine trials'. Furthermore, these nine trials will unfold in sequence, and participants can choose whether to withdraw from the process. If they do, they will not be included in the subsequent world changes.

However, the third, sixth, and ninth trials are all special trials that will automatically open. The third trial is called the third because it will definitely open on the third floor. The sixth trial is called the sixth because it will open at the latest on the sixth floor, and will open between the first and sixth floors. The ninth trial will only open on the ninth floor.

"So, why can this fragment break the rules of this world?" Jiang Lin pinched the mysterious fragment on his chest and asked the Jiuyou Bird in his body: "You said before that you would explain it to me after entering here."

"Ah." Upon hearing this, the Nine-You Bird in Jiang Lin's body sighed softly, but did not break its promise. It explained directly to Jiang Lin: "Do you still know the Spiritual Weapon Ranking?"

"Of course I know. Could this be a fragment of a spiritual weapon that is not on the spiritual weapon list?" Jiang Lin immediately thought of this possibility, because there seemed to be nothing on the spiritual weapon list that was linked to this mysterious fragment.

But the result is just the opposite

"No, this is something on the Spirit Weapon Ranking." Jiuyou Que denied Jiang Lin's wild thoughts and directly dropped a bombshell: "Does Emperor Ding know?"

"Huh???" Jiang Lin's eyes suddenly trembled!

"The human race doesn't seem to have any legends about the Emperor's Tripod," Pei Xuan, who had been idle for a long time, added, "But according to our understanding, the Spiritual Weapon List refers to the spiritual weapons within the Dou Qi plane. There were more than just these spiritual weapons in ancient times, and the nine spiritual weapons on the Spiritual Weapon List all have prototypes in reality, but the record of the Emperor's Tripod is missing."

"Yes." Jiuyou Que nodded and continued, "The nine great spiritual weapons correspond to the nine Dou Emperors of later generations, but there has been no news about the Qiankun Creation Emperor Cauldron, which ranks first. Do you know why? The reason is very simple. The Emperor Cauldron is right here."

Jiang Lin silently took out his weapon refiner badge and looked at the relief pattern on it, which showed an illusory cauldron swallowing the sun, moon and stars. His expression was a little solemn.

The Emperor's Tripod is here? Where else could it be?!

The entire Ancient Sea Secret Realm is the belly of the Qiankun Creation Emperor Cauldron?!

"That's why I said you are lucky, kid, because the fragment on your chest is the fragment of the Emperor's Tripod. Those humans were able to do this, they must have guessed that the Emperor's Tripod is hidden in the secret realm of the ancient sea. They are ready to let you come in and look for it." Jiuyou Que said calmly.

The Dou Qi plane is so small that the Soul Clan and the Spirit Clan have explored all the places that can be explored over the past tens of thousands of years, but they have not found the legend of the Emperor's Cauldron. So naturally, they began to suspect that the Emperor's Cauldron was in the secret realm of the ancient sea.

"The fragment of the Emperor's Tripod in your hand has a story behind its origin. Maybe some lucky person got it and took it away, and finally gave it to you." Jiuyou Que actually had some guesses about the fragment of the Emperor's Tripod in Jiang Lin's hand.

Perhaps there was once a member of the Thunder Clan who was very lucky and dug up something good in the ancient sea secret realm, but he never figured it out, so he handed it to Jiang Lin now, preparing to let Jiang Lin re-enter the ancient sea secret realm to try his luck.
