Refining medicine can't save Doupo!

Chapter 597 Hey, you can't eat my plate!

A few days later, when Xiao Yan and the others had almost mastered the Water Avoidance Technique, Jiang Lin also gave everyone a small blue bead.

"The water pressure outside is very strong. This is a water-repellent bead. Used together with the water-repellent technique, it can make you have no pressure to survive under the deep sea." Jiang Lin did not do nothing these days. Instead, he used materials from the mermaid tribe to refine several special mysterious weapons, water-repellent beads, for everyone.

The principle of the Water-Repellent Beads is very simple. It is to be used together with the Water-Repellent Technique to share the pressure from the deep sea along with the fighting spirit, so that their activities under the deep sea will not be disturbed.

Jiang Lin hadn't practiced this technique before because he didn't need it. A single Water Repellent Technique, combined with the Water Crystal Core within his body, allowed him to survive the deep sea without discomfort. However, Xiao Yan and the others couldn't do that because they lacked Water-based Dou Qi. Therefore, practicing the Water Repellent Technique took them a long time. Furthermore, simply practicing the Water Repellent Technique could only prevent them from being crushed or drowned by the seawater, but it couldn't prevent them from moving freely.

At this time, the appearance of the Water-Repellent Pearl just solved this problem. Because for Xiao Yan and the others, the Water-Repellent Pearl was actually a temporary water-type Dou Qi converter, allowing them to temporarily absorb water-type Dou Qi from the outside world, and then use the water-type Dou Qi to maintain the Water-Repellent Technique, thereby reducing the pressure on the body.

"You've got quite a few treasures on you." Zi Yan took the Water-Repellent Pearl from Jiang Lin's hand, curiously toying with it for a moment before swallowing it. Then, she attempted to activate the Water-Repellent Art to establish an energy connection with it. Of course, this was only Zi Yan's method; others couldn't imitate it. Xiao Yan and the others placed the Water-Repellent Pearl in their abdomens, using it as an external energy core to maintain the Water-Repellent Art.

"It's just a tool made according to local conditions." Jiang Lin shook his head and didn't care. He made a water-repellent bead for everyone except the soul body.

"A sixth-rank profound weapon? Not bad." Hun Ke'er carefully looked at the small blue bead in her hand, a hint of admiration flashed in her gray eyes, and then she put it into her sleeve without using it.

"Is this little thing a sixth-rank profound weapon?" Xiao Yan said in disbelief.

It's not like he hasn't seen sixth-order mystical weapons before, but in his imagination, they should be some very powerful things.

"The rating of a profound weapon isn't based on size, but on its upper limit of energy output." Hun Ke'er thought for a moment before explaining, "This water-repellent bead is crafted from a sixth-rank water-type magic core. Inside..." Hun Ke'er took out her own water-repellent bead again, looking at the brilliant runes within, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes, "Did you really carve that in with light?"

"I tried it, but it didn't work very well. If I could have some strange light, I feel like I should be able to come up with a special method of photolithography refining." Jiang Lin knew what Hun Ke'er was asking, because Hun Ke'er had seen him refining the water-repellent beads.

At that time, Jiang Lin just had a sudden idea and tried photolithography, but found that the effect was not very ideal, so he only completed part of the runes. However, for a tool-type mysterious weapon like the Water-Repellent Beads, it was enough.

"Photolithography?" Xiao Yan was stunned when he heard that. No, buddy, are we still from the same world?

"Strange light? You'll just have to figure it out." Hun Ke'er couldn't help but shake her head and said, "As far as records go, there haven't been any rumors of strange light in the Dou Qi plane."

"Theoretically, it should exist." Jiang Lin refuted Hun Ke'er, a rare rebuttal, and continued, "Dark Dou Qi has appeared, so light Dou Qi, in theory, exists."

"Theory is theory, reality is reality." Hun Ke'er shook her head. Within the weapon refiner system, the "Extreme Darkness" was also known as "Ultimate Darkness" or "Ultimate Darkness." Hun Ke'er had heard legends about this kind of thing from the Soul Artisan, and knew that the Soul Artisan was also preparing to collect and search for it. Hun Ke'er thought Jiang Lin might be lucky enough to obtain the "Extreme Darkness," but as for the "Extreme Light," it wasn't that Hun Ke'er didn't believe Jiang Lin, but the Continent had never recorded the "Extreme Light."

"I think it's just a matter of observation angles." Jiang Lin would listen to Hun Ke'er on some matters, but in some areas, Jiang Lin felt that Hun Ke'er might not have a say any more than he did. "Since the theory exists, then we should use practice to prove that the strange light exists."

Jiang Lin always believed that strange lights existed in this world. Whether it was reasonable or not, strange lights must exist. Because this was the end of Jiang Lin's journey. If the world truly did not have strange lights, then Jiang Lin would only be able to stop at Dou Sheng, without the potential for further breakthroughs. Therefore, strange lights must exist. Even if they didn't exist, Jiang Lin would eventually find a way to create one.

Jiang Lin had even made plans to sacrifice himself to become a strange light, and then become the emperor in the second generation.

However, although Jiang Lin has made preparations for the worst, it must be said that Jiang Lin's intuition has always been very accurate.

In theory, strange light does exist in the Dou Qi plane, but due to different observation angles, the strange light cannot be observed. As a result, even if light Dou Qi appears on humans, humans cannot observe it and will automatically "ignore" the light Dou Qi and cultivate other second Dou Qi.

When it comes to observation, the most gifted spirits in the Dou Qi plane are undoubtedly the strongest. Jiang Lin didn't know at this moment that the strange light, which Hun Ke'er disapproved of, had already begun to gain initial recognition within the spirits, and would eventually become the ultimate gift, silently waiting for Jiang Lin to unlock it at the other end of the long river of time.

So, sometimes, good and evil are more of a narrative stance.

Whichever side you stand on, your understanding of good and evil will be different from that of the other side.
At least, when you know that the blood relatives you hate choose to sacrifice themselves and gather the strength of the entire clan to support you, I wonder what you will think in your heart?
The debate between Jiang Lin and Hun Keer about the strange light did not last long, because in the final analysis, it was necessary to use specific data to speak, so there was no point in saying more now.

After everyone got used to the water-repellent beads, Hun Keer led everyone out of the space altar. After adapting to the deep-sea environment outside, they appeared in the Mermaid Temple.

The King of the Mermaids, the Nine-Star Dou Zun Cang Lan Zun, had been waiting for a long time. Seeing Hun Ke'er and the others arrive, he didn't say anything, but led them into a palace inside the Mermaid Temple. "My dear envoys, the opening of the Ancient Sea Secret Realm is still some time away. This is the residence provided by the Mermaids for you."

Jiang Lin and the others glanced at the magnificent coral palace filled with pearls and gems before them, their faces showing astonishment. Even Jiang Lin, who had been here before, was quite curious about this deep-sea city, so different from the mainland environment. And last time he came, Jiang Lin hadn't had much time to play before being captured by Hun Ke'er and instantly refined—no, instantly brought back to the Dou Qi Continent.

"If you have any needs, you can always tell the mermaid attendants around you. If my tribe needs anything, we will definitely send them to you as envoys." Venerable Canglan said humbly.

"The meals have been prepared for you in the palace. You envoys can eat at any time."

Hearing about food, everyone was a little tempted. Ever since they'd grown so close to Jiang Lin, they hadn't had a proper meal in a long time. Why? Because they usually spent their days in a fasting retreat, eating only the expensive gift packs.
Under such circumstances, Gu Xun'er ate all kinds of elixirs all day long, Xiao Yixian even ate poisons and poisonous herbs, Zi Yan and Xiao Lan were similar, and as for Xiao Yan, he was even more powerful. He drank magma for two months in the underground magma world.

As for Jiang Lin... He felt like he'd almost forgotten what eating was. Ever since his spiritual body reached maturity, Jiang Lin had practically evolved from a flesh-and-blood life form into an energy life form. Normal blood food, in his eyes, wasn't as energy-rich as the energy provided by certain spirit stones. Most of the time, he simply activated the Dou Qi Furnace and let 'God feed him.'

"Please follow me, my envoys." Seeing that everyone was interested in the food provided by the mermaids, Venerable Canglan felt inexplicably relieved, and then took the initiative to lead everyone to the restaurant in front.

For Venerable Canglan, the pressure she felt was terrifying, because she knew that if she could not serve the younger ancestors who were under the control of her ancestor well, the future of the mermaid race might become even more bleak.

Now that she saw these people were interested in food, Venerable Canglan felt relieved. At least, their mermaid tribe could now cater to their tastes, right?
Soon, everyone arrived at a bright and transparent crystal palace. Inside the palace was a huge round table, on which were placed hundreds of exotic flowers and plants, as well as various spiritual stones and pearls.

"This is the specialty food of the mermaids, and it is also a unique food of the ancient sea world." Venerable Canglan explained to everyone the various foods on it that seemed 'unpredictable'.

"I never thought I'd be able to experience such a wonder in my lifetime." Xiao Yan swallowed a pearl-like 'Bright Moon Water Jade' and found it melted instantly. Without any need for refinement, it transformed into pure water energy flowing through his body. Xiao Yan couldn't help but shiver from the cold. But soon, as the two different fires within him began to rise, the chill within him melted away like spring snow. The originally icy water energy was assimilated by the different fires, transforming into pure energy that Xiao Yan could absorb.

Although there was some energy loss, the ability to convert it instantly made Xiao Yan realize that this was definitely a good thing!
"Although they don't look as appetizing as the delicacies from the human world, in terms of value, these are definitely good things!" After Xiao Yan used the strange fire to digest the pure energy in his body, he immediately praised it.

Upon hearing this, the others immediately selected a few items they liked and began to consume them. Finally, their eyes lit up, realizing that Xiao Yan was right. These items might look primitive, but they were all precious cultivation resources! Furthermore, their energies were extremely gentle! Even though most of them were water-based foods, they didn't affect their digestion at all!

"It feels okay, but a little hard. People with bad teeth shouldn't eat this." Upon hearing this, Jiang Lin grabbed a white jade plate and bit it into pieces with a snap. The divine spiritual fire in his body rose up and refined the fragments. He found that there was indeed a lot of energy in it.

"." Standing beside, Venerable Canglan had a strange expression on her face. After hesitating for a moment, she finally couldn't help but whispered to Jiang Lin when she saw him about to grab something strange again: "Um, sir, you don't have to eat the plates and utensils."

Venerable Canglan didn't know how to describe her feelings, because in her eyes, everyone else was eating, while Jiang Lin was just sitting there showing off his plate.
Venerable Canglan wasn't worried about the food utensils that had been salvaged and preserved intact for thousands of years in the Mermaid Temple. Well, she did feel a little bad. The food was gone, but those thousand-year-old utensils were gone for real.
"Ah?" Gu Xun'er and others were slightly stunned when they heard this, and then noticed that Jiang Lin was actually gnawing on the plate, and they couldn't help laughing.

"Hahaha! Brother Lin's teeth are really good!" Xiao Yan gave Jiang Lin a thumbs-up. Yao Chen told him that the plate in his hand was also considered high-quality spiritual jade, but he tried and couldn't bite it.
"Alas," Xiao Yixian held her forehead with her hand and smiled helplessly. It wasn't surprising. Jiang Lin liked to pay attention to things that others didn't pay attention to. He had been like that when he was in Qingshan Town.

Click!

"Hey, you're right, this plate is also a treasure!" The action-oriented Zi Yan started to gnaw on the plate directly, and then her eyes lit up when she found that these plates with restrained energy were no weaker than those cultivation ingredients that were on the surface!
Gu Xun'er hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she just helplessly and calmly wiped the small tooth mark on the edge of the jeweled wine glass in her hand.
Hun Ke'er silently watched the crowd's sudden change of style, and remained silent for a long time: "."

"." The eyes of Venerable Canglan and Hun Ke'er met, and then they separated silently.

Somehow, Hun Ke'er felt a little embarrassed. This strange emotion was something she had never experienced before.
"It's okay. I'm used to eating stones, so I can digest them well." Jiang Lin gave Venerable Canglan a reassuring look, promising that he wouldn't get an upset stomach. As a humanoid spiritual vessel, Jiang Lin was naturally born and nurtured by nature. He either ate spirit stones or simply let nature provide him with food. Normal meals were becoming less and less common.

"." Venerable Canglan didn't know what to say for a moment. She didn't know whether to say it was good or bad, and she was very conflicted.

"Don't worry, I won't eat your food for free. I can refine high-level fighting weapons for you." Because he was grateful for the food he had eaten, and he knew that in order to maintain a long-term and healthy relationship, he couldn't rely solely on high pressure, so Jiang Lin still subconsciously chose the transaction mode.

"And we also have high-level alchemists here who can take on your alchemy commissions." After thinking about it, Jiang Lin pulled Xiao Yan and Yao Chen in.

"Hmm, that's fine. Accept this proposal. I'll see if I can find some different herbs to refine Dou Wang Dan No. 3, or even Huang Ji Dan No. 2!"

Upon hearing this, Yao Chen in Xiao Yan's body thought about it for a moment and found that this was a very good suggestion.

The ancient sea world has an almost completely different ecology from the Douqi Continent, so here, he might be able to create a new pill formula and make himself famous in history!
