210: Chapter 210 Cultivation Materials? Edible Monsters!

Around the altar, a large amount of monster wreckage was scattered.

Su Lin first looked at the remains of the marine creatures that had been frozen into ice sculptures and then shattered.

Those spirits of the deep sea had been frozen by his ice power and then shattered into fragments, scattered all over the ground.

He had originally thought these were just illusions condensed by that woman using the energy of the stone pillars, not actual physical entities, and thus completely impossible to Extract.

But now, the System actually showed that they could be extracted.

Su Lin was a bit surprised, but he did not hesitate and directly muttered in his heart, "System, Extract."

[Extracting...]

[Extraction successful!]

[Obtained Materials: Deep Sea Demon Shrimp Pincer (2-Star) × 23 — Originally just ordinary Deep Sea Demon Shrimps, but due to long-term erosion by the power of the Lord of the Deep Sea, they underwent irreversible mutation to become sacrificial guards. Containing pure water elemental power, they can be used for the creation of water-attribute creatures. At the same time, as Advanced cultivation Materials, consuming them can strengthen the body, accelerate psionic purification, and also increase water element affinity.]

[Obtained Materials: Abyssal Octopus Tentacle (2-Star) × 41 — Containing the power of deep-sea undercurrents, the tentacles are extremely resilient and can be used for the creation of deep-sea binding-type creatures. At the same time, as Advanced cultivation Materials, consuming them can strengthen meridian resilience and slightly increase the efficiency of psionic circulation.]

[Obtained Materials: Abyssal Demon Crab Roe (1-Star) × 23 — Rich in water elemental energy, it can be used for the creation of water-attribute creatures. At the same time, as Advanced cultivation Materials, consuming it can greatly enhance one's Physique, accelerate cultivation speed, and increase water element affinity.]

[Obtained Materials: Deep Sea Demon Shark Fin (1-Star) × 25]

[Obtained Materials: Altar Guard Flesh (1-Star) × 47]

...

Looking at the dazzling array of Materials in his System Space, Su Lin's eyes lit up.

These seemingly unremarkable remains turned out to be all good things of one or two stars, and in quite large quantities.

More importantly, these things weren't just for creating creatures.

Every single one of them was labeled as "Advanced cultivation material."

Consuming them could strengthen the body, accelerate cultivation, and even increase water element affinity.

To be honest, if he had to hunt monsters himself to obtain cultivation Materials, he definitely wouldn't dare to just eat them randomly.

After all, who knew how bizarre these monsters were, and what the consequences of eating them would be.

But since the System had clearly labeled them as "edible," there was nothing more to say.

As someone from a nation of foodies in his past life, the creed "to eat is a blessing" was engraved in his very bones, giving him a natural yearning for delicious food.

Now, suddenly obtaining so many Advanced seafood ingredients, which had even been nourished by divine power.

The taste might be hundreds of times better than the top-tier sashimi or crab roe soup dumplings from his past life.

Just thinking about the sweet freshness of that crab roe melting on the tip of his tongue, and the melt-in-the-mouth tenderness of that spiritual flesh.

Su Lin couldn't help but look forward to it.

Not to mention, they also had the effects of strengthening the body, accelerating cultivation, and increasing water element affinity.

He definitely couldn't let them go.

"Not bad, not bad. This is a massive profit." Su Lin nodded with satisfaction, putting away all the Materials.

Then, his gaze fell upon the scattered human corpses around the altar.

These were the Living Corpses that had just been awakened by the woman's song and then completely shredded by the Bone King's Wind Blades.

In life, they were probably just ordinary humans, guards or ritual consumables left behind by the Ancestor.

Although their strength was very weak—so weak that they were instantly killed before they could even get close.

But having stayed on the seabed for hundreds of years and being eroded by the aura of the Lord of the Deep Sea for so long, maybe something could still be extracted from them.

Adhering to the principle of not wasting anything, Su Lin muttered once again, "System, Extract."

[Extracting...]

[Extraction successful!]

[Obtained Materials: Grudgeful Living Corpse Remains (1-Star) × 37 — Originally just ordinary humans, but used as consumables for a certain ritual. Due to a century of grudges and the influence of sacrificial power, their corpses mutated into Living Corpses. Containing grudge energy, they can be used for the creation of undead creatures.]

[Obtained Materials: Grudgeful Living Corpse Remains (0-Star) × 89]

Su Lin looked at the extraction results and wasn't disappointed.

Although they were all zero-star and one-star Materials, and their quality wasn't very high.

But to the outside world, these were extremely precious undead-type Materials.

If put on the black market, they might be traded for some good things.

In any case, it wasn't a loss.

Afterward, Su Lin ransacked everything that could be extracted.

The remains of the altar, fragments of the stone pillars, scattered rune stone tablets, and even those shattered bubble fragments were not spared.

Unfortunately, almost all of them were zero-star, with only a very few one-star items.

It seemed that for these things, the runes on them were more important than the Materials themselves.

However, if there was something to take, he would take it. It would be a waste not to.

After completely cleaning out everything he could scavenge, Su Lin wandered around the underwater structures a few more times.

Confirming that nothing had been missed and finding no other secret doors or hidden spaces, he could be certain that this place had been completely emptied by him.

The matter here could be considered drawn to a close.

Thus, they exited the underwater ruins and returned to the surface.

The Bone King parted the sea once again, and the group returned to the dock along the path they had come.

Stepping onto the ground, the sunlight spilled over them, and the sea breeze blew gently.

Shen Qingci let out a long breath, her whole body relaxing quite a bit.

Although she had obtained almost nothing from this trip down to the underwater ruins.

But being able to cling to Su Lin's thigh was already the greatest harvest.

As for other things, she really hadn't dared to hope for them.

Just then, Su Lin turned his head, looked at her, and said flatly, "So, where are your things?"

Hearing this, Shen Qingci also snapped back to her senses.

Indeed, she couldn't go back on what she had promised.

Therefore, without the slightest hesitation, she directly took out an exquisite box from her storage space and handed it over.

"Everything is here. Take a look and see how it is."

Su Lin took a look.

The items this time were even more abundant than the last.

The wooden box was not only filled with various cultivation Materials and extraordinary items.

Most importantly, inside were three crystals emitting a faint golden glow and a small bottle of milky-white jade marrow.

There was also a transparent crystal bottle containing a liquid as clear as morning dew.

They were precisely the heavenly vein crystal, spirit marrow jade liquid, and spirit cleansing holy dew.

Su Lin looked at these three items, highly satisfied in his heart.

Shen Qingci, this little rich girl, indeed had a wealthy background.

With these, he was only one final step away from promoting to the Catastrophe Level.

Yet his face remained calm, and he only nodded slightly, saying flatly:

"Alright. Although we didn't directly find the Sea Siren Clan's ritual site this time, we at least figured out the whereabouts of the sacrifices, so it wasn't a wasted trip."

"Don't worry, I definitely won't mistreat you. If there are any discoveries later, we'll share intelligence, act together, and keep in touch."

Hearing this, Shen Qingci also smiled slightly.

Although she still felt a bit of pain over that batch of Materials, her trust in Su Lin grew by a few more notches.

No matter what, although this Mr. Mask had a sharp tongue, he was indeed reliable in getting things done.

"Then I must thank Mr. Mask. If I receive any intelligence, I will definitely share it as well."

"If you need anything, you can also feel free to mention it to me. I will absolutely not refuse."

"Well then, let's stop here for today. I won't disturb you further and will take my leave first."

Saying that, she waved her hand, and the space around her rippled. In the next second, she disappeared from the spot.

Only after Shen Qingci left did Su Lin look at Lin Weixia beside him and say:

"Let's go. It's time for us to head back too."
