"Senior Brother Lin Tianhao! It's actually Senior Brother Lin Tianhao!"
"That arrogant brat from the Purple Sun Sect is a dead man. Senior Brother Lin will definitely kill him."
"That's right. Senior Brother Lin must have gotten the news. Otherwise, why would he show up?"
"He has a blood feud with that kid from the Purple Sun Sect. The brat is dood!"
Lin Tianhao's arrival sent the disciples of dicine King Valley into a frenzy.
They believed that with Lin Tianhao taking the stage, Yang Xiao's death was a certainty.
Even Elder Yun nodded in satisfaction upon seeing Lin Tianhao, who was clad in white with a sword at his waist, looking dignified and impressive despite his frosty expression.
With him stepping forward, it would be more than enough to deal with this insolent disciple from the Purple Sun Sect.
However, thinking of what had happened earlier, he still felt it necessary to give this outstanding True Disciple a reminder. "Nephew Tianhao, this boy is full of tricks. He has already killed two True Disciples, Qiu Chengjun and Zhang Cheng. Though your strength is great, you must still be careful."
"Thank you, Elder Yun. This disciple understands."
Lin Tianhao cupped his fist to Elder Yun.
He leaped onto the high stage, his gaze burning as he stared at Yang Xiao.
"Fighting you is beneath , but many of my junior brothers died because of you. Even my master's death is not unrelated to you. This battle is unavoidable. Are you willing to accept?"
"And what if I don't accept?"
Yang Xiao asked, raising an eyebrow.
"If you don't accept, I can't do anything to you here in dicine King Valley. But once you leave... that's another story."
"Are you threatening ?"
"No. I'm telling you the truth."
Looking at this cool, cocky guy...
Yang Xiao was a little speechless.
He rolled his eyes and said, "I've said it before: as long as the wager is right, I'll accept any challenge from my peers in dicine King Valley. Did you bring a stake?"
"I have stakes here equivalent to four Eighth-Level Upper Grade Spirit dicines. As long as you can afford the match, I'll fight you."
Yang Xiao pointed to the pile of Spirit dicines in his hand.
This pile was already enough for him to refine a Ninth Grade Middle Rank Fire Elent Pill. If he doubled the amount, he could refine a Ninth Grade Upper-rank one.
To Yang Xiao, this was already a considerable sum.
As for losing?
Yang Xiao had never even considered it.
However, what Yang Xiao hadn't expected was that this Senior Brother Lin, this Lin Tianhao—who had made such a grand entrance and was clearly no ordinary person in dicine King Valley—froze when he heard this.
'Did I run into so broke chump?'
Yang Xiao was stunned for a mont.
He actually did want to settle the score with Lin Tianhao.
After all, there was a real enmity between them.
They were bound to fight sooner or later.
If that was the case, why wait?
But to his surprise, the man really seed to be stumped by his wager.
Just as Yang Xiao was wondering whether he should lower the stakes for him, a sweet, gentle voice called out from below the stage.
"You're at death's door and still thinking about wagers? Senior Brother Lin, you just ca out of seclusion; you don't have many Spirit dicines on you. I have an Eighth-Level Upper Grade Spirit dicine here. Take it for now. I'll ask a few of our other brothers to chip in for the rest."
The speaker was a woman in a sea-green dress.
The woman looked to be in her twenties, and her aura was not weak, having reached the level of a Martial Arts Grandmaster.
She was the one who had arrived with Lin Tianhao earlier.
But as soon as she said this, Lin Tianhao's face flushed red. He waved his hand to stop her. "Junior Sister Zhou, there's no need. This is my business. Yang Xiao, it's true I don't have that many Spirit dicines on . However, I have a spot to enter the Earth Fla Cave for cultivation. If you're willing, I'll wager that."
"The Earth Fla Cave? What the hell is that?"
Yang Xiao put on a confused look.
Inwardly, however, he was laughing his head off.
His ti in the Outer Mansion's Library Pavilion a while back hadn't been for nothing.
From those books, Yang Xiao had learned not only that dicine King Valley was the only power confird to possess a dicine King, but also many other details about the valley.
All this information ca from the miscellaneous notes left behind by seniors who had entered dicine King Valley over the generations.
Among them were records of the Earth Fla Cave.
The Earth Fla Cave was a Treasure Land in dicine King Valley, an absolutely perfect blessed land for Fire Attribute Cultivators.
Moreover, it was filled with a vast number of cultivated Spirit dicines.
As long as they were mature and you had the ability, you could pick any of them.
One senior from the Purple Sun Sect had earned a spot to enter the Earth Fla Cave after performing a great service. Although he didn't go very deep, he managed to bring out an Eighth-Grade Spirit dicine.
He was the envy of everyone.
He boasted that it was the proudest achievent of his life, and it was recorded as such in the Library Pavilion.
That was how Yang Xiao learned of this wondrous place.
In fact, so seniors of the Purple Sun Sect had even drawn inspiration from this place to build Spirit dicine Peak.
However, compared to the Purple Sun Sect's Spirit dicine Peak, the Spirit dicines inside the Earth Fla Cave were of a higher grade, and they ca with no strings attached.
As long as you had a spot.
As long as you had the skill.
You could keep going deeper and deeper.
The deeper you went, the stronger the flas.
And the more powerful the Spirit dicines that grew within.
Yang Xiao believed that if he got this spot, and if he were ruthless enough, he could probably walk away with every last Spirit dicine in the Earth Fla Cave.
'If he did that, he could probably gather a huge pile of Spirit dicines.' 'Compared to that, four Eighth-Level Upper Grade Spirit dicines were practically nothing.'
However, Yang Xiao couldn't let them know that he knew about this place.
If they backed out, it would be a huge loss.
So, for now, he had to play ignorant.
"He really is a country bumpkin who knows nothing. The Earth Fla Cave is a blessed land of our dicine King Valley! It has Eighth-Grade Spirit dicines, and if you're lucky, you could even pick a Ninth-Grade Spirit dicine! Senior Brother Lin is really getting the short end of the stick giving this to you."
The dicine King Valley disciples, jealous of Yang Xiao, all started to chi in.
They deliberately touted the benefits of the Earth Fla Cave.
But they didn't ntion the dangers.
Clearly, they were trying to set a trap for Yang Xiao.
"Ninth-Grade Spirit dicine? For real? Why do I get the feeling you're all trying to trick ?"
Yang Xiao wore a look of disbelief.
"Why would we lie to you? The Earth Fla Cave absolutely has Ninth-Grade Spirit dicines! We swear it!"
"Such a precious place, and you really want to bet it? This spot isn't just for you personally, is it? If you lose and dicine King Valley doesn't honor it, wouldn't I be getting screwed over?"
Yang Xiao still looked skeptical.
Inwardly, however, he was already scheming how to get that spot firmly into his own pocket.
"You don't have to worry about that. Entry to the Earth Fla Cave requires the Earth Fire dicine King Order. I can take it out right now. When the ti cos, as long as you have this Token, you can enter even if you're not a disciple of dicine King Valley."
As Lin Tianhao spoke, he took out a crimson Token.
The mont this Token appeared, all the disciples present grew excited.
Because this was truly the Earth Fire dicine King Order.
The Token that granted entry to the Earth Fla Cave.
It was incomparably precious.
