Seeing what just happened, Zhao Hai knew that the seal has been dealt with . Then he immediately scanned the jade slip with his spiritual force . Just as his consciousness entered the slip, an explosion was heard, shaking his head . Then the five element killing formation activated and kept the danger at bay .
Zhao Hai stared, then he immediately understood what just happened . The five element killing formation blocks all kinds of spiritual force that went to his head . It seems like there was something inside the jade slip that triggered the formation .
Zhao Hai took the formation down and allowed the spiritual force from the jade slip to enter his mind . Before long, writings appeared inside his head .
Zhao Hai proceeded to read through the words appearing in his mind, “Condensed Astral Art . The Heavens and the Earth are righteous, evil, arrogant, and divine . The mind should be… . . ”
As he contemplated on the writings, Zhao Hai finally knew what was recorded inside the jade slip . Inside was actually a secret art . It was an article detailing evil qi and astral qi . And further on, it dictates how to use them to make a life source weapon .
There weren’t only ordinary magic artifacts in the Cultivation Realm . Those that passed through evil qi or astral qi became life source artifacts . Since these artifacts passed through evil qi and astral qi, whether it be defensive or offensive strength, these artifacts were much better than ordinary ones .
It can be said that this art came at a timely moment for Zhao Hai . Both Yellowsand Planet and the Space had a non stop supply of astral qi . If he was able to make use of it, then his body would become more tenacious . And if he was able to join astral qi with his own strength, then his attacks would be more aggressive . And lastly, if he could add astral qi to his own treasures, he would be able to promote them at least a level higher .
Zhao Hai badly needed these improvements . Therefore, he really wanted to find a method to utilize astral qi .
Zhao Hai carefully looked through the secret art and found out that it was very complex . He would introduce astral qi into his meridians, then bit by bit he would merge it with his own spiritual qi .
However, this process came with a huge amount of pain . Most people wouldn’t be able to endure this type of pain . This was the main reason why most people go insane and die once they tried merging evil qi or astral qi to their bodies .

But this issue wouldn’t be a problem for Zhao Hai . He had already experienced something like this before when he was tempering his body . Therefore, Zhao Hai didn’t worry about introducing astral qi to his body .
After looking through the entire secret art, Zhao Hai didn’t immediately go and practice it . This was because there were still dangers in practicing this art . If people were to arrive and disturb him, then his concentration would be broken and the situation might turn sour .
But even if Zhao Hai couldn’t integrate astral qi into his own spiritual qi, he could still practice the art on some magic artifacts . Presently, Zhao Hai had Liquid Silver, which was also a magical artifact . Zhao Hai could definitely use astral qi to improve Liquid Silver . Zhao Hai believed that Liquid Silver could still become stronger .
With this though in mind, Zhao Hai sat down and then took Liquid Silver out . Then he used his spiritual force to temper liquid silver using the astral qi around him .
When Zhao Hai’s spiritual force got in contact with the astral qi, he immediately felt a great pressure pulling at it . Then Zhao Hai’s spiritual force was immediately twisted and shattered by the pressure .
However, Zhao Hai was still fine . After all, he had prepared well for this situation . Although he could feel his head ache, this pain wasn’t uncomfortable .
Zhao Hai calmed himself down and then guided the astral qi using his spiritual force . However, the result was still the same . Zhao Hai slowly learned as he failed time and time again . His failures also reinforced his spiritual force . If his previous spiritual force was a silk thread, now it was already like a metal wire .
Zhao Hai didn’t know for how long he’s been introducing astral qi to Liquid Silver, but suddenly, Liquid Silver shone with light . Then the Space issued a prompt, “New energy has been introduced to the host’s staff . The Space has judged that it is beneficial to the host . The energy’s existence has been approved . The Space will now take over in controlling the new energy . ”
After hearing the prompt, Zhao Hai discovered that the astral qi no longer needed his control in order to enter Liquid Silver . Moreover, its progress was much better than when he was the one controlling it .
Zhao Hai was glad with this development . Then he sat in place to recover his spiritual force . And just as he was feeling his spiritual force, Zhao Hai discovered that his capacity had increased . Moreover, his spiritual force was more solid than before . This was completely out of his expectation .

After his spiritual force was fully restored, Zhao Hai was finally able to confirm that his spiritual force had increased . Originally, his spiritual force could support 1000-layer formations at most . But now, he could support 3000-layers with ease . Even if he cast five formations at the same time, it would still be possible for him .
And if his formation sets had supporting formations, he could cast 10,000-layer formations with no problem . And this was without Liquid Silver’s help . If he used Liquid Silver, then he could achieve 30,000 layers .
Seeing his strength increase by more than a single fold, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but feel ecstatic . He was worried that his spiritual force wouldn’t be able to catch up to his body’s increase in strength . But now it seems like his spiritual force had already caught up . This was absolutely good news for Zhao Hai .
Once Zhao Hai had sorted his spiritual force out, he suddenly discovered that a day had almost passed in Yellowsand Planet . This caused him to be surprised .
A day had passed but he only met Wan Xiang . Wasn’t this too strange? One must know that there were about 100 thousand participants in this region . Moreover, the region wasn’t very large . It would be very easy for two people to meet each other . But ever since the beginning, Zhao Hai had only met Wan Xiang .
At this time, Cai’er suddenly said, “Young Master, while you were practicing, there were 50 people who scanned you with their spiritual force . However, since they don’t pose any danger, I decided not to wake you up . ”
When Zhao Hai heard this, he began to understand . Then he asked, “There are 50 of them? Who are they?”
Then as he said that, a list flashed inside Zhao Hai’s mind . There were detailed descriptions about the 50 people in the list . The time when they scanned Zhao Hai and for how long they kept scanning him were also listed .
Zhao Hai looked at the list and nodded, “Good . They’re lucky that they didn’t make a move . Otherwise I will have to be impolite . ”
Cai’er nodded, “Young Master, there’s no need to worry . If they really dared to make a move, then we can release the Undead you captured from Tyro Planet and the Rainbow Meteorite Field . They should be enough to kill all of them . ”
Zhao Hai laughed and said, “Right, just like what you said, we can just release the Undead to eliminate them . ”
The Undead that Zhao Hai gained from Tyro Planet and the Rainbow Meteorite Field had preserved their original strength . This was to say that Zhao Hai had a few Undead with level 4 and level 5 strength . If people dared to attack Zhao Hai, then these Undead could just kill them .
At this time, Laura said, “Brother Hai, why don’t you try taking a stroll?”
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, “Forget it . It’s not easy to survive in this elimination round . If I went to other places, even if I don’t encounter other beasts, I would still see other participants . And in the end, I would have to defeat them . I’ll give them a chance . As long as they don’t make a move on me, then I won’t actively attack them . ”
Laura paused for a moment and then she nodded, “In any case, it doesn’t matter if you meet anyone or not . And if you encounter a strong beast, even if you can run away, you would still disturb everyone around you . It would be good if you stay here . ”
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “That’s right . I think it would be best for us if I don’t expose my strength . Therefore, we can’t catch any beasts for now . If my abilities are discovered, then I would be at a disadvantage later on . We shouldn’t forget that we cannot guarantee if the other realms are looking into the Machine Field . If they are really monitoring us, then we would be in trouble if they see my strength . ”
Laura nodded, then she said, “Brother Hai, you should build a house made out of sand . If there’s an opportunity, we can head out and accompany you . ”
Upon hearing Laura, Zhao Hai smiled bitterly and said, “Forget it . If we do that, we will only attract unwanted attention . It’s fine like this . ”
Laura smiled and said, “Alright, but Brother Hai, you need to at least take out an umbrella and a proper chair . You should be comfortable . ”
Zhao Hai’s eyes shone, he said, “That’s a good idea . Get me an umbrella and a recliner . Right, get me some cold fruit juice as well . I’ll take the next few days as vacation time . ”
When Laura and the others head this, they couldn’t help but giggle . Before long, everything Zhao Hai requested had been brought over . Zhao Hai comfortably lied down on his recliner as he sipped from his cold drink . He even looked as satisfied as someone who was on a vacation .
As Zhao Hai relaxed, several spiritual forces came to scan him . But after seeing that they weren’t Zhao Hai’s match, they decided to move on .
The day quickly went past and night arrived . Zhao Hai didn’t return to the Space and instead just lied down on his recliner . At this time, a sound was heard . Zhao Hai opened his eyes to see a large group of huge spiders about five kilometers away from him .
These spiders were very huge, each one exceeded five meters tall were eight meters long . Their entire bodies were covered in fur, making people feel dread while looking at them .
There were 40 spiders in this group, both big and small . It seems like they belong to one cluster . Zhao Hai stood up, he knew that this was because the sandworms were already full . Once the sandworms were no longer hungry, their territory would become safe . Because of this, the spiders began to come out .
However, Zhao Hai wasn’t afraid of these spiders . He would have the spiders come then send them all into the Space, adding new species to the Space .
Before long, the spiders were already close to Zhao Hai . Zhao Hai waved his hand and released a 3,000-layer formation, giving the spiders no chance .
This was the first time that Zhao Hai used a 3,000-layer formation set . To be honest, these 3,000-layer formations were very strong, exceeding his expectations . From what Zhao Hai could see, these spiders had about level 4 strength . In this case, capturing them with a 3,000-layer formation was beyond easy .
Of course, Zhao Hai believed that the 3,000-layer formation sets of other people weren’t as powerful as his . It was necessary to know that Zhao Hai’s 3,000-layer formation set included a large amount of supporting formations .
At this time, Zhao Hai’s formation sets were divided into five categories . The first type were defensive formations . It was needless to expand about this since they were just formations meant to defend . The second type were offensive formations . These were formations that focused on very strong attacks . As long as one was hit by these formations, then they would either get severely injured or get killed . The third type were trapping formations . These formation sets don’t aim for killing . Instead, they were used for capturing their targets alive . But sometimes, it was harder to capture enemies than killing them . The fourth type were supporting type formations . These formations weren’t usable during fights . Instead, they were very effective for Mechs and Battleships . The fifth type of formation were weapon formation sets . These formation sets were used for weapons, reinforcing them or giving them attributes . This type of formation set could also be used for defensive equipment, making their defenses stronger .
These five categories were already known in the Machine Field . Moreover, each of these branches were being gradually improved, albeit the very long progress .
