361: Everyone has their own secrets, the powerful fruit tree (two-in-one thanks to the reward from Mount Fuji)

Above the sea, several people, clad in snow silkworm robes, soon reached the predetermined airspace.

The gravitational magnetic field was already extremely strong at this moment; for an ordinary Qi Refining Cultivator without defensive Magic Treasures, they might even be distorted.

Five Formation Plates transformed into five rays of Spirit Light, rising from the sea and converging above the island, forming a colossal thunder seal!

Boom!

Before the thunder seal could fully descend and scatter, two enormous, dark figures shot up into the sky!

"Hold them, just for a moment!" Loose Immortal Sanyang roared first.

Then, a giant black gourd flew out from him, and from within the gourd, countless heavy waters, like Magic Treasure beads, poured down towards the two Hanhai Apes!

Beside him, Red Dust Hermit also sent out a string of Buddhist beads, nine in total, emitting dazzling Spirit Light as they smashed towards the two Hanhai Apes!

Seeing this, Lin Shiming also took out his Soul Suppressing Tower and pressed it down towards the two Hanhai Apes!

In contrast, the couple did not make a move, earning them a fierce glare from Loose Immortal Sanyang.

Facing the Magic Treasures of the crowd, the two Hanhai Apes merely let out two long roars, and immediately, countless waves surged towards the sky, condensing into silhouettes of sea apes that charged towards the Magic Treasures.

Rumble!

Countless sea apes shattered, followed by two pairs of dark iron fists, like mountains, surging from the waves, smashing away the Soul Suppressing Tower, Buddhist beads, and gourd with a single punch!

For a moment, the entire sky was filled with water vapor, completely enveloping the island.

And just then, the lightning in the sky also covered the entire island; the lightning Formation was complete!

Within the lightning Formation, two thunder Dragons filled with lightning charged towards the two Hanhai Apes!

It was then that Lin Shiming finally got a clear look at the figures of the two Shaking Sea Apes; the larger one was over a hundred zhang tall, covered in black fur, beneath which countless black markings were faintly visible. The most terrifying aspect was its pair of iron fists, long and massive, exuding a terrifying, mountain-like texture.

Each punch could scatter a thunder Dragon, which only turned into arcs of lightning crackling on the Hanhai Ape's body.

The Hanhai Ape roared in pain, and in an instant, all the seawater in the entire sea area flew up into the sky, attempting to destroy the Formation base.

Loose Immortal Sanyang clearly had prior research; the lightning Formation's lethality against the Hanhai Ape was undoubtedly immense!

"Everyone, keep attacking! Quickly kill these two Hanhai Apes, or there will be complications if we delay!" Loose Immortal Sanyang continued, this time speaking directly to the Ziyun Shuangsha.

Evidently, he was very displeased with the Ziyun Shuangsha's earlier restraint, even if they had just made a token move with a Magic Treasure!

Lin Shiming naturally had no objection to this, and his Soul Suppressing Tower once again floated out.

However, his gaze drifted to the side, inadvertently glancing at the Spirit Devouring Ant on his arm. He found it very interesting; judging from the Spirit Devouring Ant's perception of the Formation, all four people on the field had made their moves in secret, all aiming for the starfall cold iron!

The Spirit Devouring Ant was extremely anxious, as that was food that could allow it to evolve. However, before an opportunity arose, Lin Shiming still prioritized the Spiritual Vein.

He was not a Spirit Seeker; there was no need to take risks.

Falling out with Loose Immortal Sanyang was not worth it!

Instead, the five people openly, controlling the Medium Grade Fourth-Order lightning Formation, were unhurriedly bombarding the two Hanhai Apes!

One by one, they looked at each other, all thinking of their trump cards to acquire the starfall cold iron later.

Only Lin Shiming worried about complications with delay, and the Soul Suppressing Tower in his hand emitted a faint glow, sweeping towards the smaller Hanhai Ape!

With a sweep of the faint glow, the smaller sea ape immediately paused, and Lin Shiming also controlled one-fifth of the Formation Plate, gathering large swathes of lightning, directly transforming them into lightning spears that blasted down!

The larger Hanhai Ape immediately let out a furious roar, its iron fists about to smash the lightning spears, but the Soul Suppressing Tower flew out first!

Boom!

The Soul Suppressing Tower was sent flying, its Spirit Light greatly diminished, while the lightning spear also struck the iron fist of the Middle Stage Fourth-Order Hanhai Ape.

The Middle Stage Fourth-Order Hanhai Ape was blasted into the seabed, stirring up large swathes of lightning that agitated half the sea area.

The larger Hanhai Ape immediately roared to the sky, countless black Spirit Light began to flicker, and finally, it opened its maw and spat out an Inner Core.

As soon as the Inner Core appeared, terrifying Spiritual Qi immediately began to gather, and countless seawater surged towards the Inner Core, finally condensing into three drops of Profound Heaven Heavy Water!

Although there were only three drops of Profound Heaven Heavy Water, they weighed as much as ten thousand jun. For a moment, everyone felt a drastic increase in pressure on their bodies, and the entire Void Realm began to shake.

As the three drops of heavy water fell, the two thunder Dragons shattered once again in an instant.

Before the lightning Formation could condense further, the Profound Heaven Heavy Water continued to blast towards the Formation!

Boom!

The entire lightning Formation's Spirit Light was greatly diminished, and in the sea area, the continuously surging seawater also began to pour backward, transforming into countless water apes!

Normally, the Formation might have been fine, but after all, there was a gravitational field here, and the five Formation Plates serving as the Formation base all began to show cracks!

Loose Immortal Sanyang's pupils also widened, and the gourd in his hand suddenly sucked in, trying to absorb the three drops of Profound Heaven Heavy Water!

"If you don't act now, the Formation will be broken, and then it will all be for nothing!" Loose Immortal Sanyang's anger was palpable!

Besides the gourd Magic Treasure, he also took out a square small seal and pressed it towards the Hanhai Ape!

"Don't worry, this beastly Yao Beast has even used its Inner Core, it won't be arrogant for long!" Red Dust Hermit didn't care in the slightest, and a Buddhist ruler appeared in his hand.

Above the Buddhist ruler, lotuses glowed, and with a single strike, countless Buddhist lotuses instantly appeared.

A look of hesitation also appeared on the faces of the Ziyun Shuangsha. If the Formation were broken, let alone the starfall cold iron, they might not even be able to kill the Hanhai Ape at hand!

The female Cultivator among them also took out her Violet Cloud Sword Magic Treasure, while the male Cultivator unusually took out a huge iron hammer Magic Treasure!

For a time, the Hanhai Ape became even more perilous, even with its Inner Core unleashed, it couldn't withstand the siege of five people, coupled with the furious bombardment of the Five Element Thunder Formation!

And just then, Loose Immortal Sanyang also spat out a black silver needle Magic Treasure, which instantly pierced through the Void Realm, directly puncturing the back of the Hanhai Ape's head!

Slaying the Late Stage Fourth-Order Hanhai Ape!

However, at this moment, the five Formation Plates of the Five Element Thunder Formation finally buckled under the strain and shattered, and the lightning Formation disappeared!

The five people appeared in the high sky, not showing much disappointment. Having slain the Late Stage Fourth-Order Hanhai Ape, the remaining one was no longer a major concern!

Instead, they began to look at each other, and the atmosphere started to become unusual!

Roar!

The remaining Hanhai Ape began to wail mournfully, then furiously smashed towards the several people!

All of their Magic Treasures also descended, covering it!

However, an unexpected change suddenly occurred: the Violet Cloud Sword and the iron hammer Magic Treasure, instead of smashing the Hanhai Ape, struck Loose Immortal Sanyang's gourd Magic Treasure and seal Magic Treasure!

Even Lin Shiming's Soul Suppressing Tower was struck by the Violet Cloud Sword, and its Spirit Light, already damaged by being hammered, suffered even greater loss.

Because it was his Natal Spirit Treasure, Lin Shiming's Purple Mansion began to shake violently, and he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood!

The Hanhai Ape, however, hadn't expected the internal strife among them and continued to smash towards Loose Immortal Sanyang!

Although Loose Immortal Sanyang was a Body Cultivator, he was also affected by the gravitational field. With this smash, he was sent flying a great distance!

The Ziyun Shuangsha, meanwhile, transformed into two streaks of escape light and fled into the distance. Along with them, a dazzling Spirit Light also fled from the island.

Lin Shiming finally saw clearly that it was actually two Early Violet Palace Stage Violet Cloud Wolf Kings, with terrifying speed, carrying a Storage Pouch. Evidently, the starfall cold iron was already in their hands!

Besides that, two more streaks of escape light appeared, one of which was a Buddha Eagle, covered in Buddhist light, and the other was a thousand-year-old cold silkworm.

However, the Buddha Eagle looked rather miserable, seemingly bitten by the Violet Cloud Wolf King, while the cold silkworm was completely unharmed, but it also exuded fierce light, clearly not having gained any advantage from the Violet Cloud Wolf King, otherwise, it wouldn't be this scene!

"What are you doing?" Lin Shiming's expression changed, feigning ignorance.

Loose Immortal Sanyang's face was extremely grim. At this moment, it was naturally impossible for him to reply to Lin Shiming. He quickly collected the corpse of the Late Stage Fourth-Order Hanhai Ape and pursued the Ziyun Shuangsha!

Leaving Lin Shiming and Hongchen Sanren to face the Middle Stage Fourth-Order Hanhai Ape alone!

"Fellow Daoist, I am also injured. You go forward and hold it back, and this humble monk will deliver a fatal blow to this beast!" Red Dust Hermit released his Buddhist beads, while also retracting his Buddhist ruler and offering it above his head!

Lin Shiming nodded, continuing to activate the Soul Suppressing Tower in his hand.

At the same time, he also noticed that a large portion of the starfall cold iron seemed to be missing, and the gravitational suppression was greatly reduced.

The Hanhai Ape also became increasingly fierce!

Even though it was severely injured, it remained exceptionally ferocious, stirring up waves that grew higher and higher, and its iron fists desperately smashed towards the Buddha Magic Treasure and the Soul Suppressing Tower!

Lin Shiming, as a Body Cultivator, also charged out at this moment, donning a layer of Star Body Armor, and moreover, took out a Spirit Locking Whip in his hand, a Medium Grade Fourth-Order Magic Treasure, which possessed binding properties!

It was perfect for waiting for Monk Hongchen's fatal blow!

After a series of chants from Red Dust Hermit, the Buddhist ruler glowed brightly, and the lotuses on its surface seemed to come alive.

Furthermore, it seemed this was still not foolproof, so he took out another Spirit Talisman and affixed it to the Buddhist ruler. In an instant, a Buddha phantom appeared, and those lotus rulers began to transform!

One became two, two became three, and three became countless!

Dense and numerous, they occupied a large part of the sky, cutting down with immense power. However, the targets of the attack were not just the Hanhai Ape, but also Lin Shiming!

"Fellow Daoist, you!" Lin Shiming was greatly alarmed!

And Red Dust Hermit's face was full of smiles!

"Benefactor, I see demonic nature on your forehead; I will help you dispel it!"

The Buddhist ruler densely covered him, but in the next moment, only a Calamity Substitute Talisman fell in front of Lin Shiming's body!

And Lin Shiming's body instantly vanished!

The Buddhist ruler struck down the Hanhai Ape, and the last Hanhai Ape also perished on the spot!

Red Dust Hermit's body suddenly rushed to the side!

And in the next moment, Lin Shiming also pursued him, his wind chasing boots pushed to their limit, following like a shadow!

He actually rushed in front of Red Dust Hermit, and the High Grade Fourth-Order Magic Treasure crescent moon guard blade was activated to its extreme, sweeping towards Red Dust Hermit's neck!

Red Dust Hermit immediately condensed a golden body, sparkling with golden light, blocking the crescent moon guard blade!

Then he retreated sharply backwards, and the Buddhist ruler from afar also flew back. Half of that Spirit Talisman was still there; as long as the Spirit Talisman remained, he still had a chance of winning!

But in the next moment, Red Dust Hermit's head surprisingly fell off.

And Lin Shiming also collected a Spirit Net, which was precisely the Hidden Sky Net.

He naturally understood Red Dust Hermit's little scheme, because under his Spirit Devouring Ant's sensing, the starfall cold iron underground had not been completely taken!

On the other hand, it was clear from the fact that the gravity field had not completely disappeared!

This was also the cleverness of the Ziyun couple; if they had taken everything, everyone would likely have pursued them!

But by leaving a portion, it meant that everyone would inevitably have to contend for it!

And if he wasn't mistaken, the Ziyun couple had the larger share, which was why Loose Immortal Sanyang would chase them without hesitation!

Red Dust Hermit had thus become tempted, as Lin Shiming hadn't even made a move earlier, and he looked extremely young.

However, Lin Shiming had used his Leaping Void Disc to leap beside him, leaving the Hidden Sky Net, and then used his wind chasing boots to attack him from the front, thus steadily killing him!

Lin Shiming then made another turn and also slew the Buddha Eagle on the spot!

Spirit Beasts that had been tamed were worthless, and there was a high probability of them rebelling against the Spirit Control Seal!

Collecting the corpses of the Buddha Eagle, the Hanhai Ape, and Red Dust Hermit's Storage Pouch, Lin Shiming then released the Spirit Devouring Ant and went to the island.

The further one went onto the island, the heavier the field became. Clearly, the cold silkworm and Buddha Eagle were not as resilient as the Violet Cloud Wolf King.

However, for Lin Shiming, who cultivated the Star Body Tempering Art, the field was not unacceptable. He walked into the meteorite crater and dug another large pit!

He put a palm-sized piece of starfall cold iron into his bag.

The gravitational field on the island once again largely disappeared.

Lin Shiming was somewhat surprised; he found that there was indeed a natural gravity Formation on the island, and even without the starfall cold iron, it still existed. Loose Immortal Sanyang had not lied!

However, the power of the natural Formation was clearly not great!

Lin Shiming remained on the island and began to set up Formations. He estimated that Loose Immortal Sanyang would not return so soon!

Having the Formations ready would ensure everything was foolproof!

After all, there was also a Fourth-Order pure earth-attribute Spiritual Vein on the island, and all of the Fourth-Order spirit soil within it was collected by Lin Shiming!

Besides the spirit soil, Lin Shiming also discovered a Fourth-Order great strength fruit Spiritual Plant, which currently bore four great strength fruits.

Although the great strength fruit was not particularly precious among Fourth-Order Spirit Fruits, for Body Cultivators, it could provide some additional Qi and blood strength, aiding in Body Tempering.

Even for Yao Beasts, it could enhance their physical strength.

The Lin family had unexpectedly gained a great strength fruit tree, another harvest!

He naturally couldn't share these fruit trees and spirit soil with Loose Immortal Sanyang, as the latter had taken the corpse of the Late Stage Fourth-Order Hanhai Ape when he left!

After transplanting the great strength fruit tree, Lin Shiming continued to inspect the island and found several more Spiritual Plants beneficial to Foundation Establishment Body Cultivators. After collecting these Spiritual Plants, he sat down beneath the island and began to recover his true essence!

At this moment, Lin Shiming felt a bit of resentment; it was acceptable not to learn Alchemy and Artifact Refining, but he really should Cultivate diligently as a Spirit Seeker!

If he could transplant Fourth-Order Spiritual Veins himself, he wouldn't even need to share the Hanhai Ape's corpse.

Of course, he only thought about it; his Cultivation was already quite varied, Body Refining and Qi Refining, and he was also a Sword Cultivator, needing to manage Spirit Beasts. If he also took on Alchemy and Artifact Refining, his Cultivation speed would be greatly reduced!

And after waiting for a day, Lin Shiming finally saw Loose Immortal Sanyang fly back!

At this moment, Loose Immortal Sanyang's complexion was rosy, clearly having recovered somewhat. Seeing Lin Shiming on the island, he was also a bit surprised; evidently, in his view, it should have been Red Dust Hermit waiting here.
