Chapter 720 (1/2)
Chapter 720: Chapter 318: Great Harvest Chapter 720: Chapter 318: Great Harvest First,
the Ice Crystal Coffin worn by the black-robed elder was used to isolate his aura.
Jade Soul Algae are extremely sensitive to the aura of cultivators; they would immediately hide themselves upon detecting even the slightest trace of a cultivator’s presence.
Moreover, the Jade Soul Algae moved incredibly fast, and their concealment abilities were outstanding; once they had hidden themselves, they became all the more difficult to find.
Therefore,
before attempting to capture the Jade Soul Algae, one must take care not to let them detect even a hint of one’s aura.
After capturing one, inevitably, one’s aura would be exposed, and once exposed, it would disturb the other Jade Soul Algae.
Sensing the aura, the others would also immediately go into hiding.
And, Jade Soul Algae were also very timid.
After going into hiding, they would need to wait at least three days before daring to appear again.
The black-robed elder had wondered why the Jade Soul Algae only appeared on the second day during his first capturing attempt.
The reason was that Lin Jing had entered the sea a day earlier, and as soon as he entered, the Jade Soul Algae detected him.
After sensing Lin Jing’s presence, the Jade Soul Algae immediately went into hiding.
This was also why Lin Jing could see them through Observation Mode, but after entering the sea, he couldn’t find them at all.

Apart from the first time, where the black-robed elder was lucky to capture two Jade Soul Algae, over the following ten days, the black-robed elder made a total of three attempts.
However, in these three attempts,
the black-robed elder actually failed every single time.
After a series of failures, the black-robed elder did not show any strong emotional fluctuations; on the contrary, he seemed relatively calm.
It seemed as though capture failures were nothing unusual to him.
After failing three times in a row, the black-robed elder did not linger any longer and soon decided to leave the place.
When the black-robed elder prepared to leave, Lin Jing also began to move.

Extremely curious about how the black-robed elder had gotten in, Lin Jing naturally wanted to see how he would leave.
Afterward,
Lin Jing once again followed the black-robed elder to the edge of the Fog Wall.
Upon arriving there, the black-robed elder first took out a Jade Vial from his Space Ring.
Then, he immediately opened the Jade Vial, and as soon as it was opened, a cluster of golden liquid surged out of the bottle’s mouth.
At this moment, the black-robed elder concentrated his Spiritual Power, merging it into the golden liquid.
After a short time, the Spiritual Power that the black-robed elder had gathered fused with the golden liquid, turning the whole into a dazzling golden-yellow color.
Then, the black-robed elder covered his entire body with the golden Spiritual Power, making his entire body emit a shining golden light.
Next,
the golden-glowing black-robed elder charged straight towards the Fog Wall ahead.
And he quickly disappeared into the wall of fog.
After the black-robed elder flew into the Fog Wall, Lin Jing also controlled his observation perspective to follow along.
Within the Fog Wall, the black-robed elder’s shining figure isolated himself from the gray mist; the mist could not come close to his body at all.
Although it seemed like the black-robed elder was very safe, Lin Jing could still make out that the Spiritual Power on his body was running wildly.
Additionally, the golden light on his body was depleting extremely fast.
As soon as he charged into the Fog Wall, the shining golden light on his body quickly faded.
In an instant, the golden-yellow light turned into a pale gold color.
However,
fortunately, the Fog Wall was not very wide, and the black-robed elder was fast.
In the blink of an eye, he had already passed through the Fog Wall and flown out.
After flying out, the black-robed elder continued moving away from the Fog Wall for a good distance before stopping.
By then, the golden light on his body had become very faint, almost imperceptible.
At this time, the black-robed elder looked back.
Lin Jing noticed him looking pale even after just passing through the distance of the Fog Wall.
It was evident that the consumption just now was indeed substantial for him.
“Damn this Fog Wall, why does it feel like it’s getting stronger…”
“Next time I come here, I must capture more Jade Soul Algae no matter what.
Otherwise, it’s simply not worth the risk, and it’s unfair to the dangers I’ve faced.”
The black-robed elder looked back at the Fog Wall and complained a few words.
After grumbling, the black-robed elder turned around and left without looking back.
……
After the black-robed elder left, Lin Jing also stopped observing and exited Observation Mode directly.
Now that the black-robed elder had gone, it was his turn to capture the Jade Soul Algae.
From the few attempts made by the black-robed elder, Lin Jing had already mastered the habits of the Jade Soul Algae.
He also understood clearly how to capture them.
Lin Jing did not have an Ice Crystal Coffin that could isolate his aura, but he had the System Space.
And he had Fixed Point Teleportation.
He did not need to wait passively like the black-robed elder to capture the Jade Soul Algae.
Lin Jing believed that if he made a move, he would definitely capture more Jade Soul Algae than the black-robed elder…
…
…
In the verdant depths of the sea, a dark green piece of Jade Soul Algae, resembling seaweed, was leisurely drifting in the ocean.
However, at that moment…
The previously calm seabed suddenly saw the appearance of a figure.
This abruptly appearing figure emerged right beside the Jade Soul Algae.
The Jade Soul Algae, being highly responsive, began to flee before the figure could even touch it.
Yet, although the Jade Soul Algae reacted swiftly, as it tried to escape, it seemed to be restrained by something.
The Jade Soul Algae initially wanted to struggle, but just then, the figure that had just appeared suddenly vanished, and along with it, the restrained Jade Soul Algae disappeared too.
It was as if they had never existed.
Only the undercurrent that had been stirred up in the sea bore witness to what had just occurred.
