He planned to take advantage of the time now to first master the rune structure of this magic, so that when he officially practices, he can pick it up faster.

"This Taiyi Golden Armor Technique truly deserves to be a first-grade high-level technique; the rune structure is quite abundant, with as many as eighty-nine.

Among them, only twenty-three overlaps with the rune structures I have mastered..."

For Zhou Changwang, a new magic means a new challenge.

Fortunately, he did not lack cultivation experience in magic, and he had his own unique insights into the cultivation and application of magic. Coupled with the current strength of his spiritual power, which was no longer what it used to be...

Therefore, just half an hour later, he had achieved a considerable understanding of these rune structures.

Then, he immediately began to try...

Under the effect of the Sound Insulation Technique, his spiritual power was not revealed, and together with the Concealing Breath Technique, he could also gather his breath and isolate spiritual power.

Thus, when Zhou Changwang actually began to try practicing the Taiyi Golden Armor Technique, it didn’t attract anyone’s attention at all. Others could only see his movements, without knowing that he was practicing a new magic at this moment.

Once, twice, three times...

Time and again attempts, time and again failures.

Zhou Changwang was already accustomed to this.

The Attribute Panel is not omnipotent.

Before reaching entry level, one must cultivate as they always have; it won’t steadily increase cultivation experience like after reaching entry level.

"Perhaps, it does have an effect.

But it’s just a kind of solidification of cultivation progress, such that if one can draw three rune structures the first time, the minimum number of structures for the second time would be three..."

Zhou Changwang’s thoughts fluctuated, and he failed in casting just because he was distracted after condensing only seven rune structures.

He didn’t mind this at all.

Cultivation, after all, is based on ’human’.

The Attribute Panel is just an auxiliary.

Only when a cultivator fully devotes themselves can they achieve corresponding improvements.

Relying only on the Attribute Panel can only determine his lower limit, while the upper limit depends on himself.

Thus, after an hour, Zhou Changwang felt mentally exhausted and stopped.

Naturally, he hadn’t succeeded in mastering this magic yet.

After all, it’s a first-grade high-level technique with numerous rune structures; trying to reach entry level would not be so easy.

Now, he had only mastered fifty rune structures.

Then he glanced at the sky, with the crescent moon hanging high. Although clouds spread, making it seem somewhat dark, he often used Eye-clearing Spiritual Liquid, and even washed and flushed his eyes with Spiritual Eye Golden Liquid, enough to see in the dark, naturally unaffected.

Then he looked around.

Jade Lake was vast.

At a glance, the nearest shore was several kilometers away, and the calm water surface often rippled,

Occasionally, large fish leaped from the lake with splashing sounds.

Among them, Zhou Changwang even saw a big fish, about ten meters long, leaping three meters high above the surface, dropping like a huge stone from the sky, creating a gigantic splash.

"This should be a Fish Demon.

I don’t know if it’s an initial-tier Fish Demon or a middle-tier Fish Demon."

Zhou Changwang muttered, shaking his head.

He already knew that with the wide lake surface and deep lake bottoms, countless fish demons and demon beasts were hidden in Jade Lake, not only initial and middle-tier Fish Demons but also high-tier Fish Demons and even Great Demons at the Foundation Establishment Realm level.

Fortunately, the fishermen’s captain was experienced, avoiding areas possibly harboring groups of Fish Demons and high-tier Fish Demons all along the way.

Thus, the journey had been relatively calm.

Thud!

At this moment.

A thudding sound came from the ship’s hull, like some gigantic creature was hitting the bottom of the ship.

Instantly, the cultivators who were immersed in meditation woke up.

Even the cultivators in the cabin rushed out immediately.

"What’s going on?"

Shen Xinyue appeared on the deck first, asking hurriedly.

"Don’t worry, it’s just a Fish Demon ramming the ship’s bottom.

It’s a small issue!"

Captain Ge Yuan Mountain explained with a smile and then began to turn the rudder. Not long after sailing further, another thudding sound echoed from the fishing boat’s bottom.
