These Dharma treasures, which were at most inferior-grade profound armaments, couldn’t even stop the drops for a moment. In an instant, they were sent flying by the Nether Yin Heavy Water.

In less than a second, the Blood Sea Sect’s cultivator master followed in his companion’s footsteps and exploded into a blood mist that filled the sky.

The last one was also stopped by Lin Shen. When he blocked Lin Shen’s attack, he was killed by the Nether Yin Heavy Water that came from behind.

The battle lasted for no more than three seconds. Zeng Chengde, who was in the cave, had barely had time to realize that his three fellow disciples were all dead.

Watching Lin Shen on the Heavenly Eye Mirror, everyone in the cave fell silent.

After a long while, someone couldn’t help but break the silence. His tone was filled with disbelief.

“Who’s that man?”

No one answered the question.

The battle between the Blood Sea Sect and the Nine Suns Sect in the spirit cave lasted for more than half a year. They had fought countless times and were very familiar with each other’s combat strength.

Everyone here knew the powerful Spirit Nurturing cultivator master of Nine Suns Sect like the back of their hands, but they had no memory of the person outside.

When did the Nine Suns Sect have such a powerful member?

Zeng Chengde looked at Lin Shen in the mirror gloomily.

No wonder this person dared to come here alone. Zeng Chengde had thought the person outside was foolishly reckless, but now it seemed that he was just confident in his capability.

“Senior Brother Zeng!”

A cultivator master looked at Zeng Chengde.

Among everyone here, Zeng Chengde had the highest cultivation level. He had reached the seventh level of the Spirit Nurturing Stage, so everyone took him as their leader.

Zeng Chengde didn’t hesitate for too long. Since the enemy had invaded, all they could do was kill the enemy and guard the formation point.

Zeng Chengde was about to give the order when Lin Shen suddenly made a move. He actually rushed straight toward the cave.

Zeng Chengde was stunned for a moment before he flew into a rage.

“How dare he!”

This man clearly didn’t think their cultivation level would be a problem for him!

The other Blood Sea Sect cultivators looked furious as well.

“Kill him!” Zeng Chengde said with a dark expression.

Upon hearing that, the Blood Sea Sect cultivator masters in the cave no longer hesitated and charged out with their Dharma treasures.

The Blood Sea Sect occupied far more formation points than the Nine Suns Sect, and the spiritual energy they could mobilize in battle far exceeded the latter.

Therefore, when the cultivators of the two sects fought, those of the Nine Suns Sect were at a disadvantage when recovering their spiritual essence first.

Not to mention that they were near a formation point now, which made it easier for the Blood Sea cultivators to mobilize their spiritual essence.

Therefore, although Lin Shen displayed astonishing strength, they were still confident and fearless.

The two sides met near the entrance of the cave, and an intense battle instantly broke out.

Apart from the three people who were killed, there were still eight Blood Sea Sect cultivators guarding the formation point.

Apart from Zeng Chengde who was at the seventh level of the Spirit Nurturing Stage, four of the remaining seven were in the mid-phase, and three were in the early phase.

The group was several times stronger than the information gathered by the Nine Suns Sect!

However, it made no difference to Lin Shen.

He made up his mind to end the battle quickly. As soon as the battle started, he immediately summoned six clones.

The sudden appearance of the clones made the Blood Sea Sect cultivator masters jump.

However, what was even more shocking was yet to come.

After they started exchanging blows, they were shocked to discover that these clones weren’t much weaker than the cultivator himself!

This was very different from the clone spells they knew!

Shocked, the Blood Sea Sect was caught off guard.

In an instant, three people were blasted to death by the Nether Yin Heavy Water.

Initially, Lin Shen was outnumbered. In the blink of an eye, he turned it into a seven-on-five battle, and the Blood Sea Sect was outnumbered instead.

Zeng Chengde’s face was pale, and he no longer had the calmness he had a moment ago.

He never imagined that this young man could have such shocking strength. The strength he revealed when he killed the first three people was actually only the tip of the iceberg!

If Zeng Chengde had known that this person was so powerful, he would have fled without a word instead of facing him head-on.

However, it was too late for regrets.

With this person’s strength, they could forget about running away.

Seeing that there was no hope of escape, Zeng Chengde gritted his teeth and launched a fierce attack on Lin Shen.

Even if he couldn’t perish together with this person, he could at least injure him and make him unable to defend this formation point.

That way, when the sect’s reinforcements arrived, they could easily take back the formation point and might even be able to avenge them by killing this person!

Unfortunately, things didn’t go as Zeng Chengde planned.

Back then, Shan Liangshan, who was at the eighth level of the Spirit Nurturing Stage and had many powerful Dharma treasures, still wasn’t Lin Shen’s match. Now that Lin Shen’s Nether Yin Heavy Water had improved and his strength had increased greatly, how could he be seriously injured by a mere seventh-level Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivator master?

After a while, Zeng Chengde was covered in injuries.

The blood souls that he had painstakingly refined were reduced to ashes after a few collisions with the Nether Yin Heavy Water. He was no match for it at all.

In about ten seconds, the remaining Blood Sea Sect cultivators were killed one after another, leaving only Zeng Chengde.

Under the joint attack of Lin Shen and his six clones, this elite disciple, who could be considered one of the best among the younger generation of the Blood Sea Sect, died unwillingly not long after. Even his primordial spirit couldn’t escape and was scattered by the Nether Yin Heavy Water, turning into ashes.

Lin Shen waved his hand and took all the storage rings into his hand. He roughly searched them.

Unfortunately, he didn’t find anything valuable. The only thing of value was a superior-grade profound armament called the Heavenly Eye Mirror and a bottle of Nine Cauldron Pills.

“Eight Nine Cauldron Pills should be enough for me to break through to the fourth level of the Spirit Nurturing Stage.”

As his cultivation level grew, the effects of the Nine Cauldron Pill also gradually decreased.

Lin Shen estimated that when he reached the fifth level of the Spirit Nurturing Stage, the effects of the Nine Cauldron Pill would be minimal.

On the other hand, after the battle just now, the effect of Testify by Killing had been triggered three times. Moreover, it was all concentrated on the Nether Yin Heavy Water, increasing the progress of his cultivation technique by 18%.

“Testify by Killing is indeed the fastest way to improve my cultivation!”

Lin Shen was overjoyed.

If he were to cultivate on his own, he and two clones would have to focus on cultivating for at least three to four days before he could obtain such a harvest.

After putting away the items, Lin Shen took out the storage ring Qi Dao had given him and changed all the array flags in the formation point according to the instructions in the jade slip.

After the surging spiritual essence calmed down, this formation point became a part of the Nine Suns Sect’s array formation.

Lin Shen summoned his clones right away.

The Sword Spirit Self clone continued to refine the Star Sword Pill, while the other clones began to cultivate the Nether Yin Heavy Water.

The formation point wasn’t far from the underground river, and it had the ability to mobilize spiritual essence. With the jade token in hand, Lin Shen could completely control the formation point.

With the power of the formation point, he could easily mobilize the spiritual essence within a one-mile radius, including the Yin energy of the river. It was easier than gathering it on his own.

As a large amount of Yin energy surged into his body, a faint luster quickly appeared in Lin Shen’s chest aperture.

That was the primary form of the Nether Yin Heavy Water!

“As expected of the Yin energy meridian. This condensation speed is much faster than when 1 was on Goldstrearn Isle!”

Lin Shen nodded to himself, collected his thoughts, and immersed himself in cultivation.

Five days passed in the blink of an eye.

Apart from consuming the Nine Cauldron Pills and breaking through to the fourth level of the Spirit Nurturing Stage, Lin Shen focused all his attention on condensing the Nether Yin Heavy Water.

With the double augmentation of his clones and the Yin energy meridian, his condensation progress had advanced by leaps and bounds.

In just five days, Lin Shen had condensed four drops of Nether Yin Heavy Water. It was much faster than in the past!

“At this rate, I’ll have more than 30 drops of Nether Yin Heavy Water in a month!”

Lin Shen smiled happily.

The power of the Nether Yin Heavy Water was incredible. If he had more than 30 drops of Nether Yin Heavy Water in his hand, he was confident that he could resist cultivator masters who had condensed the Seed of Mystic Light even without summoning his clones.

The seed of Mystic Light made all the difference.

And Lin Shen was only at the fourth level of the Spirit Nurturing Stage.

From this point of view, the Nether Yin Heavy Water was indeed a powerful divine power that was as famous as the Dark North Sword Scripture.

“Unfortunately, 1 can’t keep doing this for much longer.

Lin Shen’s eyes flickered as he looked in the direction of the cave entrance.

He could sense with his spiritual senses that more than ten cultivator masters were rushing toward the formation point and had surrounded it in a moment.

After five days, the Blood Sea Sect’s counterattack finally arrived..
