"This is... Spirit Nurturing Water??" Meng Ling asked, her throat dry.
Although she was the youngest person in the Xianlai Sect besides Mo Jiuwei, her knowledge was not lacking in the slightest.
This was because before Meng Ling's Spiritual Root had issues, as an Elite Disciple of a great sect with a Lightning Spiritual Root, she had enjoyed the best resources and had seen quite a lot of the world.
But even so, she had only seen this Spirit Nurturing Water once before; it had been obtained by a Senior Sister of her fellow disciples, and she herself had no chance to obtain it.
And now, she had actually seen it for the second time here at the Xianlai Sect!
Between these two times, one was a top-tier great sect, and the other was a small sect that looked like it was about to be annihilated... The difference was simply too vast.
"Not bad, it is indeed Spirit Nurturing Water." Old Man Liu also had infinite pride and relief in his eyes, "We really had great luck this time!"
"Good fellow, there are at least a dozen drops in here, right?" Hu Jiu said, clicking his tongue.
"Only more, not less," Chen Lan said with a smile.
"A single drop of this Spirit Nurturing Water costs over a thousand Crystal Stones, and we actually got over a dozen at once? We're rich, we're rich." Ji Qingqing's eyes were smiling as if they were filled with stars, shining brightly.
"We aren't selling it. We will divide this Spirit Nurturing Water when we get back and let you all use it."
"Ah?" Everyone was stunned.
Old Man Liu carefully put the lid back on the Spirit Nurturing Water, put it back into his Storage Bag, and looked around, "It is not suitable to stay here for long. Let's go back first and talk about it."
Everyone knew the gravity of the situation and followed suit, responding, "Yes!"
【Hmm?】 Mo Jiuwei suddenly moved her head, as if sensing something.
She did not notice that with this small action of hers, everyone in the Xianlai Sect stopped or slowed their footsteps, pricking up their ears to wait for what she would say next.
Because in the past, whenever she had such an action, it meant that there must have been some major discovery!
【Such a strong Fire Attribute! What kind of fluctuation is this?】
【It seems to be at the foot of the mountain in front, very close!】
Just as Mo Jiuwei thought this, she heard Old Man Liu say "Eh," "I seem to have sensed some kind of fluctuation, how about you all?"
Everyone silently glanced at Liu Feng, thinking to themselves, Martial Uncle, your reaction is really fast enough.
"I..." Chen Lan was just about to speak when she heard Mo Jiuwei's Inner Voice again.
【No, that place cannot be gone to. All the experts are nearby right now, and the scramble for that Fire Attribute will definitely be even more intense than the one for the Spirit Nurturing Water!】
【We are too weak, we must avoid it!】
Mo Jiuwei waved her hands, very anxiously trying to persuade them not to go there.
The Spirit Nurturing Water was one thing; it was only because there was another entrance that allowed them to seize the opportunity that they had a share.
But that Fire Attribute thing would not work; its aura was too intense, and it was hard to pick up any scraps.
Don't end up losing your own life without even grabbing the Treasure.
When Old Man Liu heard this, he almost broke out in a Cold Sweat.
Goodness, it's a good thing they didn't go; otherwise, the Treasure they just obtained would have been buried along with them!
"Uncle Liu, let's not go. Many Great Powers are nearby, and I'm afraid we won't be able to get any Benefit," Yi Xingyun advised.
Old Man Liu looked at him upon hearing this, pretended to think about it, and then nodded, "What you said... does make sense. Since that's the case, let's just take a look from afar."
Just passing by to take a look without participating in the scramble, that should be fine, right?
In case there really is a chance to pick up scraps, then there would be an Opportunity to do so, right?
【That's more like it.】 Mo Jiuwei felt relieved.
So the group walked toward the front, deliberately keeping a distance as they walked, not staying too close together.
Before long, they saw many rays of light flashing across the sky; those were the Great Powers riding their Flying Magical Artifacts.
This scene also made the hearts of the Xianlai Sect members turn cold. They didn't expect them to arrive so quickly. In this way, there was really no Opportunity left at all!
But after getting closer, Mo Jiuwei felt at ease instead.
【So it's an Evil Creature. It's just as well that we didn't get this kind of thing.】
【I wonder who will be so unlucky as to happen to grab it.】
The Xianlai Sect members raised their eyebrows and followed suit, feeling relaxed.
And at the location of the Fire Attribute, many Great Powers were once again locked in a struggle.
Just now at the Spirit Nurturing Water, everyone had finally finished fighting to scramble for it, but who knew that after only catching a few drops, the Spirit Nurturing Water was gone!
This made everyone so angry their eyes turned red, feeling extreme regret that their Action was too slow and they had arrived too late.
Just as they were suppressing a fire with nowhere to vent, they unexpectedly sensed the arrival of a strong Fire Attribute. This was truly a case of finding a way out of a desperate situation.
So the group immediately changed course, rushed toward the source, and started fighting without a second word.
But after fighting for a while, someone suggested, "I say, how about we call a truce first? It's better to go and see what the thing inside is first, so as not to miss the time again like with the Spirit Nurturing Water."
These words stirred everyone's hearts. They Thought About It and discovered that it seemed to be indeed the case.
The Spirit Nurturing Water was wasted because of fighting for too long, causing them to miss the critical time. If they had skipped the fighting step back then, they might have been able to catch a few more drops of Spirit Nurturing Water.
"That's fine, then let's go see what the thing is together, and then decide on the ownership." Someone responded quickly.
These words were unanimously agreed upon by everyone, so the group temporarily called a truce and walked together into the forest where it was located.
The dense forest was not large, and it was located in the gap between the feet of two mountains, forming a triangular shape, so there was no other entrance besides this place.
The people of the Xianlai Sect witnessed with their own eyes those Great Powers entering the dense forest, and they could not see anything more.
"Forget it, let's go too," Old Man Liu said.
Anyway, it wasn't any Good Stuff, and they couldn't see the excitement because it was too far away. Since that was the case, it was better to leave early.
Everyone naturally had no objections, so they prepared to head outside the ridge.
Time had perhaps only passed for half a quarter of an hour, and then there was a loud bang, and the earth trembled.
"What was that noise?" Hu Jiu was startled.
"It seems like they started fighting over there," Du Yue said.
【At this time, they must have discovered that there is an Evil Creature there.】
【Tsk, it's not easy to get rid of something once you're tainted by an Evil Creature. Those people... I reckon they are going to perish there.】
Mo Jiuwei sighed in her heart.
No way?? Those are all Great Powers above the Golden Core stage; could they all be lost here?
Everyone felt uncertain and suspicious in their hearts.
"Oh my god, look!" Suddenly, Chen Lan exclaimed, pointing back at the sky.
There was a flash of fire shooting straight into the clouds, and then flames rose from the ground, setting the horizon ablaze.
And what was truly burning was, of course, not the sky, but... the forest.
The dense forest was burning.
"It's on fire, let's go quickly!" Old Man Liu looked back and saw that the dense forest was already Covered by a great fire, and his expression could not help but change as he spoke.
