261: Another layer of backup plan: the ancient battlefield.

“As expected of a top power in the Inner Sea, their generosity is truly remarkable.”

“However, it’s mine now!”

Within the six-story pagoda, a majestic and vast Dharma Body Power was condensed, and the entire tower body had undergone special refining.

It was a rare treasure!

Judging from the fluctuations in the Dharma Body Power, this was at least the work of a master Cultivator at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, Third Layer!

Originally, Shen Tianxing only had the imperial edict from the Empress, with two trump cards—one for offense and one for defense. Now, having seized the treasures of Ling Yu and Shen Xu, he had gained another trump card!

Whew… Shen Tianxing exhaled a turbid Qi. The seven mysterious Qis within his body had now been completely absorbed by him.

He could feel that his Divine Radiance Blade Body had a slight fluctuation, seemingly a little stronger. However, this feeling was so subtle that there wasn't much change. If he hadn't carefully investigated just now, he might not have even noticed it.

“Although this bit of True Spirit Dao Rhyme can improve my Foundation somewhat, the effect is truly too small. If I had to rely on it for improvement, when would I ever Breakthrough to a superior spiritual body?”

After absorbing the seven True Spirit Dao Rhymes, Shen Tianxing shook his head, feeling somewhat uninspired.

The second layer of the Secret Realm was primarily for acquiring the True Spirit Dao Rhyme Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters, which could be absorbed to enhance one's own Foundation!

This was something every Cultivator dreamed of!

After all, Foundation is essentially the key to how far a Cultivator can go. Without a strong Foundation to support them, there can be no high upper limit.

This was also the reason why those top powers in the Inner Sea fiercely competed for it!

Who wouldn't want their Saint to have a higher Foundation?

For a Sect to maintain its transcendent status, it needs a continuous stream of powerful individuals to uphold it. Saints and Prodigies are their heritage. The higher their Foundation, the greater their future achievements, and naturally, the greater the benefits to their respective powers!

However, this Opportunity here was somewhat of a trifle for Shen Tianxing.

He could completely harvest enough experience points to improve himself, which was faster and more effective than the improvement from these True Spirit Dao Rhymes!

“It seems there’s nothing more for me here in this fringe area. It’s time to go to the Ancient Battlefield.”

“These True Spirit Dao Rhymes aren’t of much use to me, but they are extremely beneficial to Fairy Liu and the others. I should go meet up with them first.”

Shen Tianxing shook his head, deciding to take Fairy Liu and the others to the Ancient Battlefield together.

The so-called Ancient Battlefield was mentioned in the Jade Slip he had obtained.

The second layer of the Azure Dragon Secret Realm's sea area was vast, and there were many Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters scattered everywhere. If one were to search for them manually, they would certainly not encounter even one for days.

The place where countless Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters truly gathered was an Ancient Battlefield!

Legend has it that it was the battlefield where the great power of the Azure Dragon Clan suppressed many powerful ancient demons and monsters, located on an ancient island!

That island was like a land growing in the sea, suppressing countless Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters!

Most Cultivators who entered the second layer through the bronze gate would be teleported there, with only a small number of Cultivators being teleported to various parts of the sea.

To hunt those Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters, one only needed to go to that land.

Shen Tianxing put away the pagoda in his hand and transformed into a streak of light, heading towards the depths of the boundless sea… The second layer of the Secret Realm had already transformed into a land of slaughter!

What awaited those Cultivators were endless Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters. It was either life or death!

Once entered here, there was no third option!

On an island, Liu Xianyun, Liu Yueying, and Li Tongshen gathered together, surrounded by hundreds of slain Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters.

Liu Yueying and Li Tongshen were very fortunate; although Shen Tianxing was not teleported with them, Liu Xianyun was not separated from them.

Upon entering the second layer, the three immediately encountered an attack from a large group of Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters. With their combined strength, it was impossible for the two of them to withstand the onslaught of these Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters.

Liu Xianyun personally slew these ancient demons and monsters, and then arranged for them to enter a state of Cultivation.

After half a month, they finally adapted.

“Fairy Liu, when will Lord Shen arrive? Do we have to continue here?”

Thousands of ancient demons and monsters gathered on this island, and dense Demonic Qi and Devilish Qi enveloped the island, devoid of any vitality.

This was the third Cultivation spot Liu Xianyun found for them. After killing the thousands of Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters here, although their Cultivation Realm had not increased, their strength had significantly improved!

Especially after obtaining the True Spirit Dao Rhyme of the ancient demons and monsters, their Foundation had risen to another level!

Li Tongshen sat down against a large rock, covered in scars. The continuous fighting these past few days had truly exhausted him.

Compared to him, Liu Yueying was better off; she had already gotten somewhat used to it.

Liu Xianyun leaned alone against a large rock, leisurely drinking wine. “What you are facing now are just ordinary Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters, their True Spirits almost dissipated, yet you are this exhausted. It shows that your strength still needs improvement.”

“When Shen Tianxing arrives, we will be heading to the true Ancient Battlefield. At that time, you might face the risk of falling.”

Liu Xianyun deliberately stayed here to wait for Shen Tianxing. After they established contact, they agreed to meet here.

When they were teleported in, they happened to land outside the Ancient Battlefield. Although they encountered many Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters, they were all the lowest level, so their luck was truly good.

But even with such ordinary Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters, Li Tongshen and Liu Yueying were somewhat overwhelmed.

“This… this isn’t considered the Ancient Battlefield yet?”

“Then how powerful will the Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters in the Ancient Battlefield be?”

Li Tongshen was startled!

In his eyes, the Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters they had dealt with these past few days were already unbelievably powerful!

Without Liu Xianyun, they both would have died countless times by now!

“There could be Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters at the Divine Profound, Soul Palace, and even Heavenly Phenomenon Realm. You need to be prepared.”

Liu Xianyun wasn't entirely sure, but according to the information Shen Tianxing obtained from the Jade Slip, there were quite a few Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters at these Realms!

Even with her current Cultivation, she might not be able to handle all of them.

“Truly worthy of being ancient demons and monsters!”

“They have been dead for so many years, suppressed by that great power of the Azure Dragon Clan for countless years, yet their remaining bodies still possess such terrifying strength!”

“I truly wonder how powerful they were when they were alive?”

Liu Yueying felt that she still had a long way to go.

She understood Liu Xianyun and knew she wouldn't scare them!

If she said that Remnants of Ancient Demons and Monsters of those Realms might appear, then they truly would, and perhaps many of them. If her and Li Tongshen's strength couldn't improve quickly, it was possible they might truly face the risk of falling here.

“What? Are you scared?”

Liu Xianyun looked at the two, whose faces were slightly pale.

To stay by Shen Tianxing's side, how could they do so without strong power and a resilient Heart-Nature?

Liu Xianyun had no obligation to always accompany them, unless they themselves had the determination to constantly grow stronger!

Otherwise, she would not allow anyone to hold Shen Tianxing back.
