The difficult path of cultivation for a grassroots female practitioner

Chapter 548 Upgrading and Breaking the Formation

Inside the mermaid's lair, just as the eldest prince had planned, Ah Hai was frantically searching for Xiao Han.

Ah Hai never expected that after just going to a few warehouses to look for clams, when he came back he found that Xiao Han was missing.

Xiao Han couldn't easily recover from the venom injected by the sea monkey, which could paralyze a Nascent Soul cultivator. The only explanation was that she had been taken away.

The eldest prince looked at the second prince arguing with his father from a distance, with a barely perceptible smile on his face.

The mermaid who kidnapped Xiao Han was naturally ordered by him. This mermaid liked him and was willing to do anything for him.

He let others do it, while he hung around in front of his father, leaving the second son with no reason to doubt him.

The second brother was looking for human female cultivators everywhere, which aroused the displeasure of his tribe members and the scolding from his father, which was exactly as he expected.

After knowing that it was this human female cultivator who saved the second brother's life and ruined his good deeds, how could he let this female cultivator go easily?

Killing two birds with one stone is the best.

Xiao Han, who was trapped in an underwater cave, naturally had no idea that the struggle for the throne among the mermaids was almost the same as the struggle for the throne in the mortal kingdom.

She took out her communication magic weapon and prepared to contact Qu Zhiyun.

If Sister Yun knew that she was trapped at the bottom of the East China Sea, she would definitely come and find a way to rescue her.

However, when she activated the spiritual energy area belonging to Qu Zhiyun, she found that the communication magic weapon lit up and then went out. She knew that the terrain here was special and the communication magic weapon could not contact the outside world.

After thinking about it, she remembered something else and took out the small conch that the mermaid Ahai gave her.

The little conch blew for a long time before she stopped and looked up at the dark sea.

But after waiting for a long time, there was still silence all around.

It seems that it is better to seek help from others than from yourself.

Xiao Han gave up the idea of ​​looking for help. This time, she began to fly upwards along the edge of the cave's reef wall.

When she flew to the place where the resistance was the strongest again, she swung her sword and slashed at the reef next to her.

She wanted to try and see if she could break the trap by destroying the surrounding environment.

A flash of sword light passed by, illuminating the dark cave. Although the sword light stirred the surrounding seawater like a pot of boiling water, the reef was not damaged at all.

There is indeed a formation, but I don’t know whether it is a natural formation or one set up by a cultivator in the past.

Although the sword strike did not change his situation, no other unexpected changes occurred either.

At least it's not the kind of formation that will backfire after an attack.

Xiao Han breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to chop with sword after sword.

It was not until there was very little spiritual power left in her body that she returned to the underground, sat on the muddy ground at the bottom of the sea to meditate, and slowly recover her spiritual power.

When her spiritual power recovered, she flew up again, reached the place where she was last time, and swung her sword again.

The operation of the formation also requires spiritual power to support it. The source of spiritual power is sometimes provided by spiritual stones, and sometimes obtained directly from the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

But no matter which one it is, when the formation is attacked and repeatedly overloaded, it will cause wear and tear on the formation itself.

If the energy used was provided by spirit stones, it would be quickly drained away. If the energy was directly drawn from the heavens and earth, overloading would also accelerate the depletion of the array base.

When the wear and tear reaches a certain level, the formation will naturally be destroyed.

Xiao Han felt that she was lucky. The formation she encountered was just a trap. She just kept hacking and slashing at it, and one day she would be able to break the formation.

Because of this confidence, she was not too anxious, but repeated the process of meditating, chopping, meditating, and chopping again and again.

Then, after an unknown amount of time, I heard through my mind the call of Badou wanting to come out.

It has been in the spirit beast bag for too long and wants to come out to get some fresh air and play.

Xiao Han looked at the sea water around him, smiled maliciously, and released Croton from the spirit beast bag.

When Badou came out, he was inside Xiao Han's water-proof spiritual shield.

Seeing the darkness all around, Badou subconsciously asked, "Where is this?"

Then, without waiting for Xiao Han to answer, he flew out of the spiritual shield, wanting to see more clearly outside.

The next moment, it felt itself in the water, and it screamed, and then the sea water poured into its mouth.

The panicked Croton flapped its wings and flew back into Xiao Han's protective shield, then made a few strange creaking sounds and used its spiritual power to force out the sea water it had drunk.

"What the hell is this place? Oh, I almost drowned."

Croton shook its feathers and complained in fear.

Xiao Han laughed and said, "I'm trapped in a cave deep in the ocean and can't get out."

Croton's eyes widened immediately. "Then you can still laugh?"

It was wondering if its owner was crazy.

Xiao Han: "If I don't laugh, will I cry every day?"

Then he comforted her, "Don't worry, we can always get out."

When you are in trouble, if you don’t think about the bright side, how can you muster the fighting spirit?

Croton asked tentatively, "You don't need my help?"

Xiao Han glanced at it sideways, "How can you help?"

Croton: "I don't think I can help much. Master is the most powerful. I'd better go back to the bag and not bother you anymore."

Xiao Han was both angry and amused at this little rascal. He really raised a piece of trash.

He stuffed the croton seeds back into the spirit beast bag and continued his chopping plan.

In this way, Xiao Han mechanically repeated it for almost a year. She felt that she could not hold on any longer. Could it be that this trap was really indestructible?

After meditating and practicing to restore his spiritual power, he practiced a few more Zhoutian exercises, and then once again felt the feeling of his body being filled with spiritual energy and suddenly draining out.

Did she break through without realizing it? She reached the late Nascent Soul stage?

Xiao Han was suddenly ecstatic. After stabilizing his small realm for a while, he began to fly up with full energy and chop the cage.

Then, when her spiritual power was about to run out, she clearly felt the tremors in the surrounding space.

It works!

Xiao Han suddenly became energized. He didn't care that there was little spiritual power left in his body. He once again drew out the little remaining spiritual power in his body, roared, and slashed out with a sword.

It was as if an invisible wall was broken, and the surrounding sea water surged, but the huge burden on Xiao Han disappeared.

Xiao Han, ecstatic, flew quickly towards the sea.

Then, just as she emerged from the sea, she saw a black shadow coming towards her rapidly.

Xiao Han was shocked, and before she could react, the black shadow appeared in front of her.

The black shadow suddenly became clear, and it turned out to be the mermaid clan's leader who had transformed into a god.
