88: Level 3, sacrifice and train spirit soldiers!

Xia Fan reaped a significant harvest from this battle.

He had already consumed a considerable number of crystals and sea beast flesh, and then devoured the water spirit fruit, so the energy within his body had accumulated greatly.

At this moment, Xia Fan could feel that the bottleneck to breaking through to the third-tier had disappeared.

He stood where the water spirit fruit tree had grown, looking around, his brow furrowing involuntarily.

Although he was absolutely confident and certain he could break through to the third-tier this time, there were still too many native fierce beasts and sea beasts nearby, and they hadn't been completely killed.

Therefore, if he were to break through here, he would undoubtedly be disturbed.

But the water spirit fruit had already been consumed, and if he didn't absorb its spiritual energy quickly, it would ultimately be wasted.

“It seems I can only break through first and then return!”

With this thought, Xia Fan smiled helplessly.

He valued this trip greatly and didn't want any unexpected events to affect him during his breakthrough; clearly, this place wouldn't do.

After all, most of the spiritual energy in this place had been depleted due to the growth of the water spirit fruit tree.

“Ta Mu!”

After a brief moment of thought, Xia Fan let out a low growl.

Ta Mu immediately came over, full of curiosity, his croaks filled with a response, “My King, what are your orders?”

“Find a suitable place nearby for us to settle down and take us there.”

“In any case, we can't stay in this place.”

“Croak— ”

The next second, Ta Mu roared in response, and in just a few seconds, he led Xia Fan and the other fierce beasts away directly using Water Escape.

They arrived at a distant deserted island.

Before the blood rain, this was already a deserted island, but now, various fierce beasts roamed this island.

Especially the lizards on this island had truly grown into the giant monitor lizards seen in movies.

“It seems the sea lizards on that previous island might have come from here.”

After seeing this scene, Xia Fan nodded slightly, then let out a fierce roar.

In an instant, a majestic aura belonging to a tiger king erupted.

Those giant monitor lizards instantly became panicked and fled without a trace in no time.

Just one roar dispersed all the fierce beasts nearby, showing his strength.

Mermaid Nami watched all this with a very complex feeling.

Just as she was thinking this, she heard Xia Fan's cold roar, “I'm about to break through. If you want to run, you can try, but... you'll be responsible for the consequences!”

After saying this, Xia Fan immediately began to cultivate in seclusion, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth on this deserted island was being absorbed by him at an extremely rapid pace.

Within a dozen seconds, Ta Mu and Mermaid Nami were surprised to find that a spiritual energy vortex was rapidly forming above Xia Fan's head, and the end of the vortex had a faint, almost imperceptible connection to him.

For a moment, both fierce beasts were somewhat surprised.

As time passed, Xia Fan gathered the spiritual energy of this heaven and earth, and the previous bottleneck to breaking through to the third-tier no longer existed, so he broke through smoothly, and his body size also increased dramatically again.

Now, Xia Fan's body was over twenty meters long, a true small mountain.

“Hmm? There are changes inside my body too?”

At this moment, Xia Fan suddenly felt that within his crystal, a peculiar space seemed to have been opened up, and he could sense it when he meditated internally.

“Is this the change that comes with reaching the third-tier?”

Seeing this, a look of contemplation flashed in Xia Fan's eyes, and he was happy because of it.

The third-tier was considered a watershed among fierce beasts, and he had reached this stage faster than other fierce beasts, thus far ahead of them.

From now on, almost no fierce beast could do anything to him.

“Very good, then let's do both things at once.”

Coming back to his senses, Xia Fan nodded slightly, and with a thought, he directly transferred the two pieces of extraterrestrial meteorite iron into that peculiar space within his crystal.

He knew very well that he was now capable of forging his Destiny Spirit Weapon.

As long as his Destiny Spirit Weapon appeared, his strength would reach an even higher level!

“I've always thought about what shape my Destiny Spirit Weapon should take; now I can directly start trying.”

Xia Fan had actually considered the shape of his Destiny Spirit Weapon for a long time.

He planned to forge it into a cauldron—a three-legged round cauldron.

“A cauldron is an ancient, mysterious, and very stable and sturdy object.”

As the peculiar space within Xia Fan's crystal began to influence the extraterrestrial meteorite iron, Xia Fan thought, “Forging a Destiny Spirit Weapon with divine metal, whether it's its own weight or its hardness, will surely reach a terrifying level.”

“Even if I just throw it out, at this stage, probably no fierce beast can withstand it.”

“Including myself!”

Xia Fan was a typical man of action, so after his contemplation ended, he immediately began to act.

Moreover, the symbolism of a cauldron was excellent; it not only represented a transcendent status but also implied establishing dominion over the world and stability.

Soon, under Xia Fan's active manipulation, the two pieces of extraterrestrial meteorite iron began to undergo noticeable changes within Xia Fan's crystal space.

Their shapes began to distort, and soon after, they seemed to transform into a mass of metallic liquid on the verge of melting.

Seeing this, Xia Fan's thoughts churned, and the two pieces of meteorite iron quickly merged, undergoing kneading and shaping, gradually forming the shape of a three-legged cauldron.

“Once I have the general outline, I can begin to meticulously carve it.”

Xia Fan inwardly examined himself, ensuring not a single bit of extraterrestrial meteorite iron was wasted, then continued to immerse himself in forging his Destiny Spirit Weapon.

Time always passed quickly, and Xia Fan was so engrossed in forging his Destiny Spirit Weapon that he barely noticed the passage of time.

“Roar—”

Two days later, a majestic tiger's roar resounded across the entire deserted island.

Ta Mu and Mermaid Nami heard the commotion and quickly gathered around.

Upon Xia Fan's emergence from seclusion, he simply opened his mouth slightly, and a large cauldron was exhaled.

Under the astonished gaze of the two fierce beasts, Xia Fan moved at will, easily controlling this large cauldron, making it grow larger one moment, then smaller, and then soaring through the air on its own.

Rumble—

Suddenly, Xia Fan's expression hardened, and he commanded the large cauldron to smash fiercely into the ground.

Where the large cauldron landed, a giant crater appeared, causing immense tremors, as if it would smash the island into the seabed.

“Third-tier?”

At this moment, Mermaid Nami's eyes were filled with shock.

After all, in her understanding, it seemed that only the Dragon King in the sea had reached the third-tier, and she had not expected that Xia Fan, this land creature, would also reach this height and even forge a Spirit Weapon.

Mermaid Nami was incredibly shaken by this.

Because she understood that Xia Fan's Spirit Weapon was entirely forged from that mysterious extraterrestrial meteorite iron!
