Chapter 223: Two hundred twenty-three Gap
The Guardian of the first layer of Jade Pot Cave, naturally, could not pose any threat to Yun Xiao and his companions, and didn’t even cause any hindrances before they arrived inside the first layer.
However, the first layer of Jade Pot Cave only contained low-level Mortal Rank Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, which were of no significant use to Yun Xiao, so they all headed straight for the deeper layers.
Since life and death were allowed in Jade Pot Cave, upon entering the cave, Xuan Zhi, Zhao Ningshu, and Cao Luo hurriedly separated from Yun Xiao and the rest.
These individuals all bore grudges with Yun Xiao, and not insignificant ones at that. They were frightened that Yun Xiao might do something to them inside the cave and they would die unjustly.
In fact, Yun Xiao’s attention had long shifted away from these individuals who at most were at the Late Stage of Meridian Gathering Realm. As long as these fellows didn’t provoke him again, he couldn’t be bothered to deal with them since he had more important things to do.
First layer, second layer, third layer!
Soon, Yun Xiao, Ling Wan, and Song Tian had all entered the third layer of the Jade Pot Cave. If initially entering the third layer posed a difficulty when they first joined the Outer Sect, now it was incredibly easy.
After all, the Guardian that protected the entrance to the third layer was at the Late Stage of Meridian Gathering Realm just like Guan Hu had been. Such a Guardian was nothing for Song Tian, a cultivator at the Early Stage of Meridian Rushing Realm, to deal with, let alone for Ling Wan to break through easily.
In the third layer of the Jade Pot Cave, they could occasionally encounter low-level Spiritual Rank Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, akin to the Stone Heart Marrow that Yun Xiao had obtained back then on this very layer.
Ling Wan, being at the Late Stage of his Meridian Gathering Realm Cultivation, found the third layer was the most suitable for him, and with his strength, it was unlikely that he would even need to break through to the fourth layer.
