Chapter 123 Investigation and Planning
Shen Zhong held a source stone in his hand, and a large amount of pure power of heaven and earth poured into his body.

At this time, in his Dantian Qi Sea.

The dark fighting spirit filled the entire space. At this time, with the guidance of Shen Zhong's thoughts, countless fighting spirits began to become translucent, and then turned into silk threads.

These threads have undoubtedly become more solid than the previous fighting spirit.

When all the fighting spirit was transformed, Shen Zhong had completed the breakthrough from the Flying Level to the Saint Level.

"Saint-level fighting spirit is indeed much more powerful." Shen Zhong controlled the fighting spirit in his body, which was constantly changing its form.

Sometimes it turns into the appearance of Shen Zhong, sometimes it turns into a sword, a dragon, and each change seems real and lifelike.

Saint-level fighting spirit is not only powerful, but can also form fighting spirit clones.

A saint-level extraordinary person can easily control his clone to do something from tens of thousands of miles away.

Shen Zhong opened his eyes and glanced at Shen Cong, and found that she was still breaking through. Not far away, Dong Xuanhu was also breaking through.

However, Dong Bo Xueying was no longer there.

Shen Zhong stood up and walked outside the warning magic circle. At this moment, Dong Bo Xueying and Yu Jingqiu were talking. When they saw Shen Zhong, they immediately walked over.

"Junior Brother Shen Zhong, congratulations on your breakthrough." Dong Bo Xueying said with a smile.

"Brother Xueying, congratulations, congratulations." Shen Zhong smiled, and then said, "I plan to go to the center of the island to take a look. If Brother Shen Cong and Brother Dong Xuan come out later, please tell them."

"Brother Shen Zhong, are you going alone?" Yu Jingqiu asked in surprise.

"It's just an investigation. It would be more convenient for me to go by myself." Shen Zhong said.

He only grasped the rudiments of the true meaning of shadow, but he couldn't bring others into the shadow world. Moreover, even if he really brought others in, their concealment ability would be far inferior to his own.

"Junior Brother Shen, please be careful." Dong Bo Xueying reminded him, but he didn't say much.

Even though he still didn't know that Shen Zhong had already grasped the rudiments of the true meaning of shadow, in his opinion, Shen Zhong was still the strongest in terms of detection ability.

Even if it is the mystery of shadows at the third level of the Realm of All Things, its concealment ability is terrifying enough.

"Row."

Shen Zhong nodded. He didn't say much, but his mind moved slightly.

Wow!
Shen Zhong turned into a shadow and disappeared from the spot in an instant.

In just a moment, Shen Zhong arrived at the center of the island dozens of miles away.

Shen Zhong entered the shadow space and stood in the air overlooking the area below.

"A tall tower?" Shen Zhong confirmed the target.

"Is this the Mage Tower?" Shen Zhong pondered for a moment. He moved downwards little by little through the shadow space, carefully entering the interior of the Mage Tower.

Invisible waves swept through, sweeping through all space, but Shen Zhong merged into the shadow space and easily avoided the waves.

"The owner of this wizard tower is quite powerful. The magic array he set up can actually detect the shadow space. If it was when I had just figured out the rudiments of the true meaning of shadows, I might have been discovered. Unfortunately, now he can't find me at all." Shen Zhong felt relieved and began to search the wizard tower.

After about ten breaths, Shen Zhong saw the owner of the Mage Tower. He was a white-haired old man in a black robe. He was in a quiet room, using his magic power to draw in the air. No one knew what he was doing.

Shen Zhong went to other places to look for it, and soon he found the target.

Right next to the quiet room where the master of the magic tower practiced, a green fruit was quietly floating on a stone platform.

Shen Zhong could clearly sense the powerful vitality in the fruit. This was definitely the target of the test, the "Fruit of Life"!
"Is it that easy?"

Shen Zhong was secretly alert in his heart. He stretched out his hand forward, wanting to reach out from the shadow under the fruit of life, but in an instant, Shen Zhong felt a heavy resistance. The resistance was so great that he could not move forward even an inch.

"There is a magic circle surrounding me, and it can actually prevent me from attacking from the shadow." Shen Zhong understood immediately, and he knew it was not that simple. In this case, there are only two ways, either his shadow true meaning prototype becomes the real shadow true meaning, then this magic circle probably can't stop him.

The second one is to attack by force, break the magic circle in an instant, and then take away the fruit.

The first method is obviously impossible. Shen Zhong has only understood the rudiments of the true meaning of shadow for a little over a year, and is still far from the complete true meaning of shadow.

As for the second method, it would be good if he could break through the magic circle instantly. If he fails, it would alert the enemy.

"Testing my attack power?"

Shen Zhong understood in his heart that the true meaning of shadow is a true meaning that is taken to the extreme. The two abilities of stealth and shuttle are very terrifying, but the attack power is relatively weak.

If one can gain the true meaning of shadow and have powerful attack power at the same time, then he will be the most terrifying killer.

Approach quietly and kill with one blow.

"I am quite confident in my attack power, but there is no need for me to take risks." Shen Zhong thought in his heart, he quietly left the Mage Tower, followed by a shadow, and instantly returned to the edge of the island.

"Shen Zhong, you're back so soon?"

Dong Bo Xueying and Yu Jingqiu looked at Shen Zhong in surprise. Shen Zhong had been gone for less than half an hour, and at this time Shen Cong and Dong Xuanhu were still making breakthroughs.

"We've found out the situation clearly." Shen Zhong didn't waste any words. He directly described the situation there.

"Now it seems that the only way is for me to quietly approach and then forcefully attack, but I'm afraid that if I fail in one attack, it will be difficult to find another opportunity afterwards." Shen Zhong said solemnly:

"The owner of the Mage Tower is a Saint-level peak powerhouse. The magic array he set up is very powerful. I think he is likely to be able to exert a strength close to that of a demigod in his own Mage Tower. Once he is alert, it will be difficult."

"Then let's make some noise outside to lure them out, and then you, Shen Zhong, take the opportunity to attack?"

Yu Jingqiu said.

"Not appropriate." Before Shen Zhong could say anything, Dong Bo Xueying shook his head.

If the fruit of life is a very important treasure, once there is any movement outside, the wizard will probably be alert and will not be easily lured away.

"What should we do then?" Yu Jingqiu stopped talking. She couldn't think of any other solution for a while.

"Shen Zhong, I can try." Dong Bo Xueying said:
"I have a way to penetrate the magic circle and get the things inside. Even if that doesn't work, I am confident that I can break the magic circle directly."

"Oh?" Shen Zhong pretended to be surprised.

In fact, he came back this time just for Dong Bo Xue Ying.

The magic circle was obviously meant to test him, so it was specially designed to target the true meaning of the shadow.

However, although it can prevent the penetration of the "Prototype of the True Meaning of Shadow", it may not necessarily be able to block the forced penetration of the "Prototype of the True Meaning of Extreme Penetration".

Shen Zhong's "Shadow Shuttle" is a kind of space shuttle and teleportation ability. Although he has only mastered the rudiments at this time, the maximum distance he can shuttle at one time is up to one hundred kilometers.

Although the maximum distance of the "Prototype of the True Meaning of Extreme Penetration" may be only about a hundred meters, it is a kind of penetration that transcends space and time, and is very terrifying.

The possibility that the magic circle can prevent extreme penetration is extremely small.

To take a step back, even if the magic circle can prevent Dong Bo Xueying from penetrating, the extreme penetrating truth as a purely offensive truth has enough attack power.

There will be no problem in breaking the formation by force.

If Dong Bo Xue Ying fails, then Shen Zhong can just give up.
"However, I don't know the location of the fruit of life. You have to tell me in advance so that we can get the fruit before the owner of the Mage Tower reacts." Dong Bo Xueying said again.

"No problem." Shen Zhong smiled slightly.
