In the cave, Zeng Chengde sensed the person outside and frowned slightly.
“Just one person?”
He looked at Pan Youcheng, who immediately took a hint. With a flick of his wrist, a palm-sized mirror appeared in his palm.
As spiritual essence was injected into the mirror, ripples appeared on the surface like the surface of a lake. When it calmed down, there was a red dot the size of a grain of rice on it.
Pan Youcheng touched the mirror lightly and moved his finger left and right.
A moment later, he looked up at Zeng Chengde and said in a low voice, “There’s indeed only that guy outside. His cultivation level is no more than the fifth level of the Spirit Nurturing Stage!”
A hint of surprise flashed in Zeng Chengde’s eyes.
Pan Youcheng’s Heavenly Eye Mirror was enough to detect everything within a five-kilometer radius. No matter what concealment methods cultivators below the Mystic Light Stage used, they wouldn’t be able to hide.
It could even roughly detect the other party’s strength and cultivation level.
Zeng Chengde had no doubt about Pan Youcheng’s judgment, but that was why he was so shocked.
Why did Nine Suns Sect send only one Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivator master over?
Did they think that a Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivator master could take this formation point?
What a joke!
A cultivator master who had condensed the seed of Mystic Light would be more like it. Wasn’t it wishful thinking for a cultivator who was at most at the fifth level of the Spirit Nurturing Stage to want to snatch the formation point?
The cultivator masters in the cave looked at each other. No one could understand what the Nine Suns Sect was up to.
After pondering for a moment, Zeng Chengde called three people’s names.
“Go out and meet that person. It’s best if you can capture him alive and interrogate him about the Nine Suns Sect’s plans!”
The three Blood Sea cultivators who were called out looked at each other and agreed in unison.
The three of them were all mid-phase Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivators, and the weakest of them had reached the fourth level.
If the three of them joined forces, it would be easy for them to deal with a cultivator with at most a fifth level of the Spirit Nurturing Stage.
In fact, if it weren’t for the fact that he was worried about the Nine Suns Sect’s schemes and was afraid of falling into a trap, Zeng Chengde would have wanted everyone to attack together and ensure that the person outside wouldn’t be able to escape even if he had wings.
However, for the sake of safety, he decided to test it out first.
The three Blood Sea Sect cultivators quickly left the cave and flew toward Lin Shen.
Looking at the three approaching cultivator masters, Lin Shen smiled a little.
There were no less than ten Blood Sea Sect cultivator masters stationed at C-3. Even he would have to spend some effort to deal with them all.
Hence, Lin Shen thought about it and decided to appear openly.
He was betting that the Blood Sea Sect cultivators inside the formation point wouldn’t come out all at once. They would most likely send out a portion of their people to probe first. That way, he would be able to defeat them one by one.
And it turned out that he had made the right bet.
After closing the distance, the three Blood Sea Sect cultivators quickly saw Lin Shen’s face and were stunned. They didn’t expect a cultivator who dared to come alone to be so young.
Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivators couldn’t change their appearance as Mystic Light Stage cultivators did.
The person looked to be in his twenties at most, and that should be his real age.
When they returned to their senses, the three Blood Sea cultivator masters looked down on Lin Shen.
Although age and cultivation level weren’t necessarily related, young people usually didn’t have high cultivation levels.
The young man had become a cultivator master at this age, and his talent could already be considered extraordinary. He would be at the third level of the Spirit Nurturing Stage at most.
Their guess was right. Lin Shen was indeed at the third level of the Spirit Nurturing Stage.
However, it was a huge mistake to measure him with the common sense of ordinary cultivators.
Lin Shen wasn’t interested in talking nonsense with the enemy. As soon as the three Blood Sea Sect cultivators were within 200 meters, he attacked.
Ten drops of Nether Yin Heavy Water leaped out of his head and spun toward the Blood Sea Sect cultivator master in the lead.
The cultivator master’s expression darkened when he saw that Lin Shen still dared to make the first move against the three of them. He immediately threw out a flying sword. Under the stimulation of his spiritual essence, the flying sword instantly turned into a cold light that faced the Nether Yin Heavy Water.
He didn’t know that the seemingly small Nether Yin Heavy Water actually had incredible strength.
This misjudgment led to his defeat.
The Nether Yin Heavy Water knocked the flying sword away effortlessly and crashed into the Blood Sea cultivator master with an earth-shattering force.
In an instant, there was a bang. Before the cultivator master could even grunt, he was blasted into a bloody mist by the extremely terrifying force!
His two fellow cultivator masters at the back were scared out of their wits!
Their fellow disciple who was killed was at the fifth level of the Spirit Nurturing Stage, but he couldn’t even withstand a single blow and was killed right away.
This situation far exceeded their imagination, and they couldn’t help but gasp.
At this point, they realized they had underestimated their opponent.
This young man was clearly an extremely powerful cultivator!
“Damn it! What’s wrong with Pan Youcheng? How can this person be at the fifth level of the Spirit Nurturing Stage?”
When they returned to their senses, the two Blood Sea Sect cultivator masters cursed Pan Youcheng in their heads. Without another word, they turned around and rushed back toward the cave.
Lin Shen sneered and pointed. The Nether Yin Heavy Water that had just killed an enemy changed directions and pierced through the void like a bolt of lightning, rushing toward another Blood Sea Sect cultivator master.
When he heard the sound of air being torn apart behind him, the cultivator master was terrified and threw out Dharma treasures crazily, wanting to block the Nether Yin Heavy Water.
However, the power of the Nether Yin Heavy Water was incredible. It emphasized using strength to break through techniques. It was powerful, domineering, and peerlessly violent. No matter how many transformations one had, one would be able to counter it..
