The materials for the second-level array were specially kept by Ye Haochuan during his previous acquisitions, but there weren’t many to begin with. How could he endure the continuous consumption?

Without materials at the moment, practicing breaking the array become entirely meaningless.

Just as Ye Haochuan was feeling frustrated, he suddenly noticed that on the skeleton to his left, there was actually a storage ring.

He was delighted and arduously swam over to retrieve the ring.

This underground palace has existed for unknown years, during which many people came here for exploration, naturally including some capable individuals who could break the first gate.

The owners of these three skeletons no doubt belong to such capable ones.

However, they managed to break through the first barrier but ultimately failed to pass the second gate.

Ye Haochuan grabbed the storage ring and then turned his gaze to the other two skeletons.

However, there were no rings on these two skeletons.

This wasn’t surprising, for obviously the person beside him was the last to enter, and naturally claimed the rings from the surrounding skeletons for himself.

Ye Haochuan opened the storage ring and found it to be true.

The items in the ring were quite abundant, and there were also two storage rings separately placed aside, which should belong to the other two skeletons.

"I never expected to make such a windfall here!" Ye Haochuan chuckled lightly and began to review the items in the ring.

The owners of these three rings were all at the True Immortal Early to Mid-Stage level, otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to break through the first gate yet perish at the second one.

An intriguing aspect for Ye Haochuan was that these three individuals were evidently Asians, as their everyday items and weapon techniques were vastly different from the current cultivation methods in Tianxi World.

However, it made sense as the strongest eight-winged angel in Tianxi World right now was merely at the True Immortal Early Stage; how could there be True Immortal Mid-Stage experts who had fallen here?

This Tianxi World was controlled by Caucasians several thousand years ago, which means these three people entered before that.

The underground palace may well have existed for thousands or tens of thousands of years.

This speculation shook Ye Haochuan’s heart.

Soon, he happily pulled out several items from the three rings.

"These two swords are almost at the Immortal Artifact level, aren’t they?" Ye Haochuan was extremely excited.

Such Immortal Artifacts are not like those in Half-Mountain Residence Tian Dang where they can be seen everywhere.

On the contrary, Immortal Artifacts are extremely rare; many True Immortal Late-Stage warriors are even fighting over a first-level Immortal Artifact.

Take the owners of the three skeletons here—they’ve reached True Immortal Early-Mid Stage, yet not one owns an Immortal Artifact, with one even using a weapon at Pseudo-Immortal Late Stage level.

Ye Haochuan was rejoicing over obtaining two decent weapons when he suddenly heard a joyful voice, "Great, I have something to feast on again!"

The Divine Concealment Sword had been released long ago; now it was vibrating eagerly, rushing towards the two long swords.

In these days, Ye Haochuan increasingly relied on the Halberd of Heaven and Earth, and the Divine Concealment Sword had been holding its frustration within. Now, with the chance to enhance its power, it couldn’t wait any longer.

"Don’t rush, there’s plenty for you to feast on!" Ye Haochuan smiled warmly and took out all the weapons from the ring.

Most of these weapons’ grades were higher than the current Divine Concealment Sword, but Ye Haochuan unhesitatingly decided to serve them as food for the Divine Concealment Sword.

The reason, naturally, is that the Divine Concealment Sword can evolve through devouring, with promising prospects. More importantly, after accompanying him for so long, Ye Haochuan already regarded the Divine Concealment Sword as his companion.

Watching the Divine Concealment Sword devour beside him, Ye Haochuan checked the ring again.

"Five Technique Manuals, these guys really were wealthy!" Ye Haochuan once again took out the basic manuals from the ring, grinning from ear to ear.

Among the five Technique Manuals, three did not attract Ye Haochuan’s attention; he ultimately chose two.

One attack technique named "Sunflower Water Sword Trace" was a Pseudo-Immortal Peak technique, slightly inferior to the Space-Breaking Halberd, but still a rather formidable attack technique.

The other was somewhat peculiar, a soul attack technique called "Thousand Souls Extinguishing."

Ye Haochuan has always been troubled by the lack of soul attack techniques, relying only on the Ghost Escape Technique, leaving his powerful soul with no real purpose. With this technique, his shortcomings in this area would be instantly remedied.

After acquiring two excellent techniques, Ye Haochuan suddenly felt as if he’d swapped a shotgun for a cannon.

After searching the ring again, Ye Haochuan found no other satisfactory items, only a transparent carved-dragon Jade Pendant, which looked quite upscale but didn’t show any special properties. Ye Haochuan, seeing its exquisiteness, casually hung it at his waist, experiencing the feel of an ancient dignitary.

There were quite a few red crystal stones in the ring, although too much time had passed, the Flower Energy had dissipated and turned into useless glass stones. However, some formation crafting materials didn’t deteriorate due to the brief passage of time.

"There’s plenty of Five Elements Crystal Stones, but they’re all at first-level!" Ye Haochuan sighed slightly as he held various colored crystal stones in his hand.

The best material for crafting Formation Foundations is none other than Five Elements Crystal Stones.

The power of formations is due to the stacking and combination of the Power of Five Elements, producing various effects. The Five Elements Crystal Stone’s Power of Five Elements is extremely pure, naturally making it the first choice for crafting Formation Foundations.

Five Elements Crystal Stones are graded according to the richness of their Power of Five Elements; first-level stones can craft first-level arrays, second-level stones craft second-level arrays, and so on.

"Right, the Attribute Origin should enhance the Five Elements Crystal Stone’s effectiveness, right?" Ye Haochuan’s eyes suddenly brightened, bringing out the Water Attribute Origin Source he gathered along the way.

He picked up a Water Attribute Crystal Stone and placed it with the Water Attribute Origin Source.

At that moment, a slight suction occurred on the Water Attribute Crystal Stone, drawing in a strand from the Water Attribute Origin Source.

In the next moment, the attribute power on the Water Attribute Crystal Stone surged upwards, leaping to the level of a second-level peak.

"Damn, now that’s a windfall!" Ye Haochuan was brimming with joy.

He guessed correctly; this Five Elements Origin Source can correspondingly elevate the level of the Five Elements Crystal Stone.

If someone else was here, they would certainly scoff at Ye Haochuan’s discovery.

The Five Elements Origin Source is an exceedingly rare treasure, a rarity beyond seek and obtain; even if someone discovered this, who would squander it to increase the grade of a Five Elements Crystal Stone.

But these things did not concern Ye Haochuan.

He quickly took out the Spirit Gathering Vessel and placed several Five Elements Crystal Stones within it.

The Spirit Gathering Vessel gently hummed, emitting a soft light, and in the next moment, the Power of Five Elements within the vessel soared together...
