Yang Kai being able to reach the Treasure Area wasnβt a surprise to Chang Qi.Β Others might now know of Yang Kaiβs strength, but Chang Qi was very clear about it.Β Yang Kai had fought and killed several Third-Order Saint Kings, a spectacle Chang Qi had seen from beginning to end, if such a person couldnβt break through the Flame Area, it would be too strange.
Chang Qi was happy that the two of them had a chance to meet here.
βWhereβs Foreign Elder Hao?βΒ Yang Kai asked as he looked behind him but didnβt see any trace of Hao An.
βOld Hao didnβt come with me. In fact, we havenβt met after we came in, but donβt worry. Although Old Hao isnβt young anymore, crossing the first layer Flame Area is still within his ability,β Chang Qi said with a smile, only now turning his attention to Chen Shi Tao and her group and asking, βThese areβ¦β
βWe are disciples from Clear Sky Sect,β Chen Shi Tao smiled, thinking that this old man should be a cultivator from the same family as this young man.Β It seems that they really came from a small family, otherwise they wouldnβt have sent someone so old like Chang Qi.
βClear Sky Sect!βΒ Unlike Yang Kai, when Chang Qi heard these three words his face immediately became dignified, quickly cupping his fists and saying, βSo Young Lady and her companions are from Clear Sky Sect, forgive my disrespect!β
He then turned a curious look towards Yang Kai, unable to figure out how he was related to these Clear Sky Sect disciples.Β Clear Sky Sectβs strength wasnβt any lower than Shadow Moon Hallβs, and although they had not managed to produce true genius disciples in recent years, their foundation, accumulated inheritance, and reputation were still highly regarded.
So when he heard Chen Shi Tao say that she was from Clear Sky Sect, of course he didnβt dare show any neglect.
This was the kind of response a person from a small family should have when they heard the name Clear Sky Sectβ¦ Chen Shi Tao secretly thought that the embarrassment she felt from Yang Kaiβs indifferent response had suddenly been swept away.
βForeign Elder Chang, were you chasing that World Spirit Treasure?βΒ Yang Kai hurriedly asked.
βRight!β Chang Qi palmed his fist, his face full of annoyance, βThat thing is too slippery.Β Originally, I thought it was just an ordinary little snake, but when I approached it, it suddenly transformed into a flaming light and flew off.Β I never expected to see anything capable of flying in this Flowing Flame Sand Field.β
Everyone was dumbstruck when they heard him say this.
That World Spirit Treasure had passed by them too quickly and brought them too much excitement, completely making them forgot that the World Principles here restrained all forms of flight.Β Now thinking about it, just that along was incredible enough.
That treasure was surely something extraordinary!Β When they thought of this, the eyes of all five Clear Sky Sect disciples immediately became hot.
βQuickly follow it!βΒ Yang Kai said before rushing off in the direction the red light disappeared.Β Chang Qi hesitated for a moment before hurriedly following after Yang Kai.
βSenior Sister Chenβ¦β The burly youth licked his dry lips and murmured, βIt seems he really is a man of great destiny!β
Chen Shi Tao had said that this young man possessed extraordinary luck due to his great destiny, but all of them had been quite doubtful about this.Β But the moment they met him, a precious World Spirit Treasure just happened to pass by! Such things were incredibly rare and every one of them was extremely valuable.Β With this reality shoved in front of them, they couldnβt help believing Chen Shi Tao, all of them directing looks full of admiration towards her, feeling she had far greater vision than them.
βWhat should we do?βΒ Asked another female cultivator.
βFollow them!β Chen Shi Tao kicked off the ground, causing her tender body to shoot forward.Β The other four also hurriedly used their movement skills and pushed their Saint Qi to bring their speed up to its limit.
βYang Kai, those disciples from Clear Sky Sectβ¦β Chang Qi glanced back anxiously at the five people following them.
βIβm not familiar with them, we just happened to meet here,β Yang Kai replied with a smile, βBut you donβt need to care about them, if we can catch up to that World Spirit Treasure, go ahead and seize it.Β It belongs to whoever can capture it. If they dare try to rob us, we donβt need to be polite!β
βSounds good. Since youβve said so, I feel relieved,β Chang Qi visibly relaxed and excitement returned to his face.
Chang Qi originally came to the Flowing Flame Sand Field to look for opportunities.Β Now an opportunity was right in front of him, so let alone disciples of Clear Sky Sect, even if cultivators from Heaven Battling Union or Thunder Typhoon Sect were in front of him, he would still have to fight.Β After living for so many years, if he died in pursuit of the Martial Dao, he wouldnβt have died in vain.
Although the two groups both pushed their speed to the limit, the inability to fly here caused them a great deal of delay.Β Because Yang Kai had waited for Chang Qi for a few minutes, the flying red light had left the range of their Divine Senses, so they had no choice but to follow the remnants of its vitality and aura to track it.
While they couldnβt sense its position exactly with this method of tacking, they were at least certain they were going the right way.
βForeign Elder Chang, do you know what kind of World Spirit Treasure that thing is?βΒ Yang Kai took a moment to ask as they ran forward.
βI wasnβt able to see it clearly, all I know is that it looked like a little green snake and when I first discovered it, it was resting atop a Soul Nourishing Flower.Β I actually only noticed it because I was trying to collect that Soul Nourishing Flower.β
βA Soul Nourishing Flower?βΒ Yang Kai couldnβt help frowning.Β As an Alchemist, Yang Kai naturally knew what about this spirit flower.Β The Soul Nourishing Flower was a Saint King Grade herb and the fragrance it gave off was able to calm oneβs mood while nourishing their Soul, it was a key ingredient in the refinement of several Soul cultivation pills.
However, World Spirit Treasures were generally spirit grasses or spirit medicines to begin with, why would it need to absorb the medicinal fragrance of a Soul Nourishing Flower?
Could this snake-shaped World Spirit Treasure have already formed its own Soul and achieved sentience?Β However, even if that was the case, it still shouldnβt be interested in a Soul Nourishing Flower.
It was a real mystery.
While Yang Kai and Chang Qi were talking, Chen Shi Tao and her group were somewhat surprised.
Because they discovered that the speed of the First-Order Saint King Yang Kai wasnβt slower than any of them; in fact, no matter how they chased him, they couldnβt catch up.
Chen Shi Tao was the most surprised, realizing now that she didnβt completely understand this First-Order Saint King cultivator.
Not long after, Yang Kai and Chang Qi stopped at the edge of a plain.
This plain was filled with grass that was about six or seven meters tall and looked very dense, but after sweeping it with his Divine Sense, Yang Kai was surprised to find that there wasnβt a single spirit grass or spirit medicine here.Β It seems that this fertile plot of land was only suitable for growing weeds.
This situation was quite unusual.
The faint aura traces of the flying red light Yang Kai was following also disappeared here, but he didnβt know if it was because it was hiding or some other reason.
However, Yang Kai was certain that the snake-shaped World Spirit Treasure was here somewhere.
βLetβs split up, looking for it in all these tall weeds will probably be difficult.Β Pay attention to any unusual energy fluctuations, there might be something like a barrier here,β Yang Kai said lightly.
βGood.βΒ Chang Qi nodded and immediately separated from Yang Kai.
A moment later, Chen Shi Tao and her group arrived just in time to see Yang Kai and Chang Qi disappear into the weeds.Β Her four Junior disciples turned their eyes to Chen Shi Tao for instructions.
βLetβs also split up and search!βΒ Chen Shi Tao made an immediate decision; she too was interested in that World Spirit Treasure.
The five disciples from Clear Sky Sect, like Yang Kai and Chang Qi, scattered in all directions to begin their search.
Searching for something in this place really gave one a headache.Β Even though Yang Kaiβs Divine Sense was far more powerful and could cover a much wider range than anyone else present, how could he find a World Spirit Treasure that could perfectly conceal itself in such a broad thicket?
After searching for two full hours, Yang Kai was considering whether he should give up, as he was essentially just wasting time now; however, at that moment, he suddenly noticed an energy fluctuation that came from a spot about ten kilometres away.
[Someone found something?]Β Yang Kai looked happy and rushed towards the signal.
After a while, Yang Kai arrived at the source of the energy fluctuation and found that the five disciples from Clear Sky Sect had already gathered and were currently standing around a hole in the ground.Β All of them wore excited looks as they stared curiously down this hole, but none of them dared to enter it easily.
The burly man was talking to Chen Shi Tao and, listening to what he was saying, it seemed he had accidentally felt something unusual from this place and had struck the ground, revealing this hole.
However, whether this hole led to danger or fortune was something he couldnβt tell, so he had sent up a signal for Chen Shi Tao and his fellow disciples to gather so they could discuss carefully what to do next.
When Yang Kai arrived here, the five of them glanced at him, they didnβt show any intentions to drive him off and simply continued their discussion.
A few moments later, Chang Qi also came over, apparently attracted by the energy fluctuation like Yang Kai.
βDid someone find it?βΒ Chang Qi stared at the hole.
βI donβt know,β Yang Kai shook his head.Β He didnβt find anything noteworthy from this hole, but its mere existence here was intriguing, so he still felt it necessary to explore it.
But this was discovered by others first, so it wouldnβt be appropriate for Yang Kai to dive in first as it would only cause the Clear Sky Sect disciples to become hostile towards him.Β For now, all he could do was wait.
While Chen Shi Tao and the others were discussing what to do, they glanced over at Yang Kai from time to time, some of them shaking their heads, some of them nodding, seemingly having a dispute about something.
After Chen Shi Tao said something though, the ones who were shaking their heads could only nod in agreement.
Having reached a consensus, Chen Shi Tao walked over to Yang Kai with a smile.
Yang Kaiβs brow furrowed slightly; although he didnβt understand what Chen Shi Tao wanted, he didnβt feel any malicious intent from her, so he decided to hear her out.
βLittle brother, do you want to explore this cave together with this Senior?βΒ Chen Shi Tao asked.
βYouβre willing to let us join you?βΒ Yang Kai raised his brow in surprise.
βNaturally weβre willing, although this cave was discovered by my Junior Brother, we only arrived here because we were pursuing that World Spirit Treasure together, so you have some credit in finding this cave too,β Chen Shi Tao smiled lightly.
βThat canβt be all there is to it, right?Β What kind of conditions are you proposing,β Yang Kai smiled thoughtfully?
Chen Shi Tao was a bit startled, but quickly smiled and nodded, βLittle Brother is truly an understanding person.Β Good, then Iβll also be straightforward. No one knows what the situation is inside this cave, there may be opportunities, or there may be danger, you also know that there are many crises hidden in this Flowing Flame Sand Field.Β Although this cave looks normal, who knows what lies down below, no one from my group dares to go down haphazardlyβ¦β
Yang Kai gently nodded, not interrupting as he motioned for her to continue.
Chen Shi Tao quickly said, βLittle brotherβs luck seems to be quite good, so I was thinking it would be best for you to explore the road first.Β With little brotherβs luck, you should be able to avoid any big risks. Of course, you should consider this matter carefully yourself first, if you donβt want to, we wonβt force you.β
It turned out they wanted to let him scout ahead!Β Yang Kai suddenly realized.
Naturally he was going to agree.Β Even if they didnβt make such a request, Yang Kai would have proposed letting him go down first himself, them inviting him to do so would have worked out better for Yang Kai.
