He could feel a thread of energy from the Golden Core dispersing and merging into his body, into his flesh and blood, immediately bringing him a slight enhancement.

This enhancement was not obvious, but it undeniably existed and could be tangibly felt by him.

"Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill, indeed the name of this cultivation technique was chosen aptly!"

Feeling the change in his body, a thought flashed through his mind.

The presence of the Golden Core would, over time, subtly and imperceptibly, accumulate enhancement for his physique, strengthen his origin, and boost his foundation.

The longer the time, the more noticeable this effect becomes.

Though not intense, it is a genuine improvement.

For a long time.

After feeling the changes in his body, he closed the interface.

At this moment, he also noticed that the temperature between heaven and earth had begun to drop, and the sun above was no longer as viciously scorching as before.

It seemed that with the completion of his breakthrough, everything was returning to normal, getting back on track.

Meanwhile.

[The second trial of the Shangyang Immortal Sect has begun.]

Accompanied by heavenly roars and void tremors, a surge of information fell into his mind.

After receiving this information, Jiang Ning suddenly gained clarity in his heart.

The second trial required him to cross the Sea of Profound Yin within the specified time and reach another island as guided by Mingming.

Reaching the island within the stipulated time and becoming the final victor would earn him the qualification to become an Inner Sect Disciple of the Shangyang Immortal Sect.

After digesting this information, Jiang Ning couldn't help but feel a bit surprised.

This grand trial was merely to gain the identity of an Inner Sect qualification.

In other words, in Ancient Times, this Pocket World was the trial ground for the Outer Sect disciples of the Shangyang Immortal Sect.

This realization alone made him feel the terror of the Shangyang Immortal Sect during that era.

Pocket World as the trial ground for Outer Sect disciples.

Taking a deep breath.

Jiang Ning secretly pressed down the waves surging in his heart.

Then he looked into the distance, that was the direction sensed by the Pocket World's will, which was also the trial location he needed to reach within the stipulated time.

The island beneath his feet, he had searched all over it once already but hadn't found his goal of coming here, Heavenly Gang Yang.

For this, he could only pin his hopes on the next trial location.

Heavenly Gang Yang was a rare treasure from the Land of Extreme Yang.

Before entering, he couldn't be sure if this unknown Secret Realm Cave Heaven really contained Heavenly Gang Yang.

But after entering, witnessing the scene of ten suns shining simultaneously, how could he not understand that with this Pocket World's environment, it was highly probable to nurture such rare treasures as Heavenly Gang Yang.

Since it was not here, he could only go to the next place to search.

Finding Heavenly Gang Yang was his ultimate purpose for coming here.

Moreover, missing this Pocket World of the Land of Extreme Yang, finding Heavenly Gang Yang would be even more difficult.

Subsequently, he locked his direction and immediately advanced at high speed.

...

Jiang Ning stopped before the shallow beach.

His face was not flushed, nor was he panting, rather, his eyes were bright and shimmering, his physical state reaching its peak.

He looked at the anomaly of ten suns shining simultaneously above.

Under the illumination of the suns, he could feel his body's consumption was recovering rapidly.

Just during his last stretch of advancing, the consumption wasn't even as fast as his recovery.

This state was remarkably similar to when he was in the water.

"This must be the effect brought by the Pure Yang Body, though it should only be a partial effect!" Jiang Ning mused internally.

The reason for this judgment was that Pure Yang Body was a trait of purple-grade, and even deep purple-grade.

This grade of trait was the highest among the traits he currently possessed, much higher than the grade of water source affinity.

With such a high grade and such a huge disparity, how could the effects between the two be the same?

He looked at the rippling sea water ahead, recalling the name given to this sea area when the will of the Pocket World descended.

Sea of Profound Yin!

He gazed into the distance.

Dozens of feet in front of him was shimmering blue water, and further ahead, the water rapidly blackened.

Water deep then abyss!

This term instantly sprang to his mind.

Then, he stepped forward.

Soon, both feet dipped into the sea water.

At this moment, he felt the Cold Yin Intent in the sea water instantly rushing toward his feet.

But in the next moment.

That sensation of cold intent just entered his body and was instantly dispersed by a surge of energy within him.

It was a vigorous and abundant Yang energy.

Pure Yang Body, body like the great sun!

Those eight words flashed through his mind, instantly deepening his understanding of the Pure Yang Body.

Now endowed with Pure Yang Body, he feared not the erosion of Cold Yin Qi.

Then, he continued forward, the seawater reaching up to his knees.

Yet it still posed no difficulty for him whatsoever.

The trait derived from his swimming allowed him to fearlessly navigate the Sea of Profound Yin, a capability he had already tested before.

Not to mention, now possessing the Pure Yang Body, he was even more impervious to the influence of the Sea of Profound Yin.

But he understood that this was something only he could achieve.

He had personally experienced the Cold Yin Intent of the Sea of Profound Yin.

A typical grandmaster could rely on vigorous Qi-Blood akin to raging fire to endure for a while, but over time, they would inevitably be eroded by the Cold Yin Intent, their vitality dwindling away.

After a brief test, he returned to the shore and drew the long sword from his back.

He swung it towards a large tree that required two people to embrace.

Crash——

With a loud noise, the tree fell, dust soaring into the sky.

Swish, swish, swish!

Jiang Ning struck out with his sword again, and in an instant, a small boat capable of carrying one person appeared before him.

Immediately, he leapt onto the boat.

The Sea of Profound Yin was terrifying; crossing the sea with his physical body to reach the trial's target would appear far too conspicuous if seen by others.

Having a small boat as cover was just perfect.

If he could avoid drawing attention, there was no need to do so.

The small boat hit the water and instantly broke through the waves, speeding forward.

In no time, he was several miles away from the island behind him.

When he turned back to look at the island, his eyes widened in shock.

Because he saw the island behind him disintegrating, like sand in the wind gradually vanishing, transforming into pure energy merging into the world.

"That island was actually a temporary creation of this world!!" he thought, astonished, suddenly understanding.

This sight made him even more aware of the mighty power of the Pocket World.

It far exceeded what he could comprehend at this point.

Yet, such a powerful Pocket World served as the trial ground for the outer sect disciples of the Shangyang Immortal Sect.

In an instant, he felt the terrifying might of the Shangyang Immortal Sect even more intensely.

But despite such terrifying power, it left few traces behind.

"What on earth happened in that era?" Thoughts flickered through Jiang Ning's mind.

Suddenly.

Splash——

A wave sound broke his thoughts.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a silver star darting towards him, as fast as lightning.

Jiang Ning immediately activated his Golden Body and raised his hand to grab it.

Only to see a silver fish, shaped like a spear, four inches long, struggling in his hand.

As the silver fish struggled, a terrifying force transmitted through his hand.

"What astonishing strength!!" he marveled at the sensation in his hand.

Even he felt its formidable strength.

And now with the added Dragon Elephant Power, his strength had long surpassed that of a grandmaster, reaching a superhuman realm.

The fact that even he felt its formidable strength was proof of its extraordinary might.

"This must be something good!" Looking at the struggling, spear-shaped silver fish in his hand, Jiang Ning mused inwardly.

Then, Qi-Blood flowed within him, and the temperature in his hand steadily rose.

In no time, the aroma of grilled meat wafted from his hand.

Smelling the tantalizing scent, his mouth began to water.

"It really is something good!" Jiang Ning rejoiced at the aroma.

This fragrance made his mouth involuntarily water, triggering his body's instinctive urge.

This meant the silver fish in his hand was a great tonic for him.

Seeing this, he didn't bother processing the innards, he shoved it into his mouth and bit off half the fish's body in one go.

The fish meat rolled in his mouth, and his eyes instantly brightened.

In just three bites, he swallowed the four-inch-long silver fish.

Savoring the lingering aroma and taste on his tongue, he couldn't help but gaze down at the calm sea water below.

"The Pocket World, indeed, everywhere is a treasure trove!!"

Jiang Ning couldn't help but smile slightly.

He could sense under the calm sea surface, the hidden currents flowing, with flashes of silver occasionally visible.

It was the gathering of Silver Spear Fish.

Silver Spear Fish was the name he gave to the fish he just caught.

Entirely silver in color, shaped like a spear.

Extremely fast, and striking with formidable power.

When it leapt from the water, it resembled a thunderbolt spear at motion.

"This might also be a test!" Watching the silver fish darting beneath the calm sea surface, Jiang Ning gained insight.

He continued to maintain a steady pace, as the small boat sliced through the water, advancing rapidly in the direction he intuitively sensed.
