Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 208 has a loophole.
The sixth brother had already perished in the sea, so it wouldn't be a big deal to make a copy of this technique and give it to Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi.

It does not affect Lin Kai and the other two, nor does it involve their secrets.

"Yunyi, come to the North Palace immediately! The situation has changed!"

Upon seeing that the other party had agreed, Li Yunjing immediately sent a message via a communication talisman to inform Yu Yunyi.

On the other side, Lin Kai took out jade slips and used his divine sense to inscribe the cultivation technique onto the two jade slips.

Before long, Yu Yunyi arrived.

She glanced warily at Lin Kai, then at Li Yunjing.

Li Yunjing nodded to Yu Yunyi, and then quickly transmitted his voice to inform her in detail of the negotiations he had just had with Lin Kai.

"what!"

Upon hearing this news, Yu Yunyi's beautiful eyes widened in disbelief.

This bizarre conspiracy left Yu Yunyi...
My mind is in a bit of a mess.

Her gaze toward Lin Kai was filled with apprehension as she looked at him again.

Yu Yunyi never expected that a mere Qi Refining cultivator was actually possessed by a Golden Core expert.

This is not a good time to talk about this matter, as it would distract Li Yunjing.

Yu Yunyi suppressed her shock and stood side by side with Li Yunjing, cautiously guarding against Lin Kai.

"take it!"

After a while, Lin Kai finished engraving the two jade slips and put them into a "treasure bag". He also counted the 400,000 low-grade spirit stones, put them in the bag, and threw them all to Li Yunjing.

The "treasure bag" floated lightly towards Li Yunjing, who was three zhang away.

Li Yunjing did not reach out to take it, but instead activated the "Azure Sea Listening to the Waves Sword" and used the blade to lift it back.

"Young people these days are so cunning!"

Seeing this, Lin Kai was speechless.

He had no intention of harming Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi.

The prodigies of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" are a big problem; Lin Kai just wants them to get lost as soon as possible.

Ignoring Lin Kai's thoughts, Li Yunjing took the "treasure pouch," carefully examined it, and only after confirming that it posed no danger did he put it into his "storage ring."

"Now that our misunderstanding has been cleared up, we'll take our leave!"

Li Yunjing was a straightforward person. Since there was no longer any benefit for him, he nodded directly to Lin Kai and said in a deep voice.

"Alright! Please make yourselves at home!"

Li Yunjing's swift and efficient handling of the situation relieved Lin Kai, who was finally able to resolve these two troublesome issues.

As for Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi, will they reveal the news after they leave here and go back?

Lin Kai wasn't worried about that at all.

On "White Sand Island," all forces have suffered heavy losses. Lin Kai and his two siblings are the strongest, and "White Sand Island" will belong to them from now on.

Moreover, after gathering a batch of resources, the three siblings still had to leave "White Sand Island".

After all, a true dragon cannot be raised in shallow water; the environment determines the upper limit of a cultivator's potential.

In a place like "White Sand Island," it would be extremely difficult to produce even a Golden Core cultivator.

To achieve something great, one still needs to live in a top-tier spiritual vein, a place like a blessed paradise.

Just like why the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" has so many experts.
It's not that the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" occupies one of the best spiritual veins in the entire Southern Heaven Continent.

This place is incredibly rich in spiritual energy, and the mountains are full of rare and precious natural treasures, making it extremely beneficial for cultivators' practice.

Besides these, occupying a top-tier spiritual vein also has its own feng shui significance. Being in famous mountains and rivers allows one to gather fortune, making cultivation smooth and successful.

In short, only in such good places can high-level cultivators be trained in large numbers.

Having acquired enough resources, Lin Kai and his two companions prepared to flee and hide in the heart of the Ming Dynasty.

After a few years, when things have calmed down, they plan to go to the treasure's location to see if they can retrieve it.

By then, even if Li Yunjing asked the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" to investigate them, it would be too late.

Lin Kai absolutely did not believe that a powerful figure in the Nascent Soul Realm would personally investigate their whereabouts for Li Yunjing's sake unless there was a reason.

The three of them were down-on-their-luck Golden Core cultivators. Although they were highly sought after, they wouldn't be hunted down by Nascent Soul experts without having offended the "Divine Firmament Dao Sect".

Lin Kai is also a high-level cultivator. Putting yourself in his shoes, he also has descendants on the Canglan Continent.

Even for his most beloved junior, he would never cause trouble for Foundation Establishment cultivators.

This is so embarrassing.

This severely damaged the prestige of cultivators at the Golden Core stage.

The more a cultivator values ​​their reputation, the less likely they are to do such a thing.

Unless it was his most beloved junior who was killed by a Foundation Establishment cultivator who was unaware of his own mortality.

Lin Kaicai might have found the other party out of anger and tortured him to death in the most cruel way.

This is the mindset of the mainstream high-level cultivators in the cultivation world.

It is extremely rare for some low-level cultivators to specifically target low-level cultivators.

It was because of this experience that Lin Kai trusted his judgment and did not believe that Li Yunjing would pose any threat to him.

Unless Li Yunjing's father is a powerful figure in the Nascent Soul Realm!
Given Li Yunjing's age, it's impossible for him to have such a powerful father.

As for grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and even lower generations?

By then, feelings had faded, and there wasn't much family affection left.

What matters to the younger generation compared to one's own cultivation?
Why bother such important people with such trivial matters? Do these important people even bother with cultivation anymore?

When have cultivators ever seen important figures in the Golden Core or Nascent Soul realms frequently appearing among cultivators in the Qi Refining or Foundation Establishment realms?

"Alright! Goodbye!"

Li Yunjing nodded before leaving with Yu Yunyi.

But when he stepped out of the North Hall's area, Li Yunjing turned around and asked, "Did you also restore the formations in this Daoist temple?"

"Array?"

Lin Kai, unaware of Li Yunjing's meaning, still replied, "We're just setting up a scheme, how could we waste resources repairing this formation? Perhaps it has always been there!"

Lin Kai's attitude was casual, with a hint of nonchalance in it.

"Okay! Let's go!"

Li Yunjing nodded and quickly left the dojo with Yu Yunyi.

At this moment, Li Yunjing's heart was pounding!
The formation was actually the original one!

Lin Kai and his group underestimated the formation here!

They only explored the entire "Guantao Pavilion" without exploring the source of its energy transmission.

According to Li Yunjing's estimation, Lin Kai and the other two probably only knew that the underwater volcano was the source of energy for "Guantao Haige", but they had not explored in detail what was deep within the source of the energy.

They lacked meticulous exploration.

Lin Kai and his team were negligent in this matter.

Of course, this leads us to conclude that Lin Kai and his two companions did not have any formation masters among them!
A formation master would certainly not miss such an important place.

Even Li Yunjing, a mere first-tier advanced array master, immediately thought of this problem.

However, the Golden Core cultivators did not think of this.

This put Li Yunjing at ease, perhaps giving him a chance to gain even more benefits!

Thinking of this, Li Yunjing unconsciously tightened his grip on Yu Yunyi's small hand.

Yu Yunyi immediately sensed the change in Li Yunjing's emotions.

However, since this area was still within Lin Kai's spiritual sense range, Yu Yunyi wisely did not show any unusual behavior.

"Perhaps there are some special beings in the deepest part of that pool, which is why the power of the volcano was transformed and transmitted to the 'Guantao Sea Pavilion', maintaining the source of the array's power."

Li Yunjing's mind raced as he carefully recalled his earlier experience of entering the seabed.

There are still secrets there.

"Lin Kai and his team did not detect it."

Thinking of this, Li Yunjing was overjoyed. He took Yu Yunyi out of the North Hall, circled around to make sure Lin Kai hadn't noticed them, and then returned to the pond in the back garden.

"How did we end up back here again?"

Upon arriving here, Yu Yunyi asked with some curiosity, "Hehe! There's a big secret here..."

Li Yunjing chuckled and told Yu Yunyi his calculations.

"The fact that a third-tier formation can maintain the operation of 'Guantao Haige' for so many years suggests that there really is a secret inside!"

Yu Yunyi was also a smart person. After listening to Li Yunjing's explanation, she immediately understood the reasoning behind it.

In this world, no energy appears out of thin air; everything needs to be transformed.

Cultivators need to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, circulate it within their bodies, transform it into magical power, and then unleash it in the form of supernatural abilities and spells to strike enemies.

The same principle applies to formations!
The vast territory of "Guantao Haige" is filled with countless formations and restrictions in operation, and its defensive and offensive capabilities have both reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

This formation has been in operation for decades, even centuries, requiring enormous amounts of energy.

The owner of "Guantao Haige" has been missing for many years, so it is impossible for him to maintain the formation with spirit stones.

This person must have entered the volcano and, through some special method, extracted the energy from it and transformed it into the "Guantao Haige" (Viewing Waves Pavilion), which is why the system has been maintained.

It is certain that this Golden Core Realm expert must have set up an extremely valuable transformation system inside the volcano.

This system involves formations at the Golden Core stage.

The third-tier mountain-guarding formation is an extremely precious formation in the cultivation world.

Whether it's the principles of the layout or the rare auxiliary materials, obtaining even a little bit of anything would be enough for Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi to eat their fill.

If the entire central mechanism of this supply array were disassembled or some parts were transplanted out, it would be an astronomical fortune.

Thinking about this, Yu Yunyi's breathing became rapid.

Cultivators' greed far exceeds that of ordinary people. However, it is difficult to find anything that would tempt a cultivator in normal times. But when such a thing does appear, cultivators can act even more frantically than mortals.

Even a wealthy young lady like Yu Yunyi showed excitement when faced with a batch of third-tier materials, demonstrating just how valuable this treasure was.

"That makes sense! Let's go in!"

Li Yunjing chuckled, equally excited. He gently took Yu Yunyi's hand, and the two of them jumped, diving once again into the depths of the pool and into the seabed.

The two were already quite familiar with this place.

Soon, Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi arrived at the bottom of the pool again, reaching the vicinity of the underwater volcano.

Upon arriving at this location, Li Yunjing began to observe the situation near the volcano using "Feng Shui techniques" and "Array Formation principles." At the same time, Yu Yunyi closed her eyes slightly, sensing the fluctuations of spiritual energy around her.

This underwater volcano has a crater area of ​​one square kilometer, which is enormous.

"Let's go inside the volcano and take a look!"

After circling the perimeter twice and finding nothing unusual, Li Yunjing decided to go inside the volcano to take a look.

Let's see where this Golden Core Realm expert drew the volcanic energy to the "Guantao Sea Pavilion".

It should be noted that after entering the sea from the bottom of the pool, Li Yunjing did not find any connecting energy channels. This strange way of connecting the array surprised him greatly.

As a formation master, I am naturally curious about the brilliant techniques of my seniors.

"it is good!"

Yu Yunyi nodded and followed Li Yunjing, like two fish swimming together, and soon they entered the crater.

Standing on the edge of the crater, Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi straightened up, stopped, and peered into the volcano to observe.

Below, the crater was ablaze with red light, and lava was gushing out.

Strangely, this magma formed a balance with the seawater.

The volcano is a world of lava, while above the crater is scalding hot seawater, one blue and one red, dividing the volcano into two distinct areas and creating a spectacular sight.

"Enter!"

Li Yunjing gave a soft shout and used a "fire avoidance technique" to create a light shield that enveloped himself and Yu Yunyi before leaping into the volcano.

"Gudong! Gudong!"

The scorching magma churned and bubbled, but Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi, having mastered the "fire-avoidance technique," did not feel the intense heat.

In such a place, Li Yunjing estimated that with his magical power, he could maintain it for two hours.

He must leave the volcano and surface in the sea within half an hour, otherwise his combat power will be severely weakened and he will be unable to cope with the possible dangers.

This area of ​​the sea is not a peaceful place.

Maintaining peak condition is the proper behavior of an experienced cultivator.

The two-hour time limit must not be used up; otherwise, whether we can get out of the volcano alive is uncertain.

Visibility inside the magma was very low; even with Li Yunjing's divine sense, it was difficult to see through a range of three miles.

Suddenly, Li Yunjing's expression froze. Deep within this magma, he actually saw living beings!

A creature enveloped in flames was deep within the lava, staring at Li Yunjing with undisguised hostility in its red eyes.

This creature was about ten feet in size and looked like a lion, but it had a pair of wings made of condensed flames. It opened its mouth as if it was about to roar.

Seeing this, Li Yunjing thought to himself, "This is bad."

Li Yunjing flicked his wrist and unleashed the "Azure Sea Listening to the Waves Sword." This spirit sword, like a streak of emerald lightning, pierced through the magma and directly entered the body of the fire demon beast.

The demonic beast was pierced through by the spirit sword, and it rolled violently, but it became increasingly weak and finally died in the magma, disintegrating into countless sparks.

Where the monster disappeared, only a flame-like bead remained.

Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi stepped forward, reached out and grabbed the bead, holding it in their palms to examine it closely.

"This is a special fire-element crystal, but we don't know its origin."

Li Yunjing asked with some doubt.

"I don't know either! It doesn't resemble a demon core, nor does it look like a demon's crystal. It seems to be some kind of special stone, and it was because of the existence of this stone in this special environment that that kind of demon beast was born?"

Yu Yunyi was also unsure.

In the world of cultivation, there are all sorts of strange and wonderful things. Even the disciples of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" cannot possibly know everything about them.

This is something that Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi could not possibly know about.

"Keep this stone safe for now."

Unable to understand, Li Yunjing simply placed the stone into Yu Yunyi's palm.

"careful!"

Just as Li Yunjing was about to say something, Yu Yunyi suddenly showed a hint of surprise and quickly reminded Li Yunjing.

"Ok?"

Li Yunjing reacted quickly and immediately turned around, only to see that another similar monster had appeared behind him.

This time, however, it wasn't a winged lion, but a flame-shaped lizard. This thing swam very fast in the lava, and in just two breaths, it opened its mouth and bit down on Li Yunjing.

This bite seemed to be about to devour Li Yunjing whole.

"What a beast!"

Li Yunjing sneered, and with a swift movement, the "Azure Sea Listening to the Waves Sword" was summoned and landed in his hand. He then slashed down at the giant mouth.

"puff……"

The monster was cut in two.

"Roar……"

Having just slain the demonic beast and collected a fire stone, before Li Yunjing could even relax, he heard two roars, and two more demonic beasts charged up from beneath the lava.

This time, the two demonic beasts transformed into the shape of swimming fish, with enormous bodies, each three or four zhang in size.

"Go down!"

Li Yunjing's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately understood that there were many fire-eating monsters inside this volcano.

Fortunately, these monsters were not of high level; they were all at the Qi Refining Realm.

Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi were naturally not afraid of such monsters, but they did not want to waste time here. Instead, they charged towards the two monsters like sharp arrows, slashing and killing them.

"Boom!"

After slaying two more demonic beasts, Li Yunjing's actions seemed to have stirred up a hornet's nest. In an instant, dozens of demonic beasts suddenly appeared near the bottom of the volcano.

These monsters, in all shapes and sizes, surrounded Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi from all directions, moving incredibly fast within the lava.

In the blink of an eye, they caught up to Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi within three zhang of each other.

"Boom!"

Li Yunjing sneered and casually unleashed a "palm thunder" at the pursuers behind him, blasting several demonic beasts into pieces.
