Hearing Jiang Jichen’s strong reaction, Yee Young rely gave him a light, indifferent glance. Without another word, she stood up, dragged the Totem Youth out from under the Spirit Beast corpses and a pile of wine jars, and headed deeper into the mountain forest.
Seeing this, Jiang Jichen winced again.
’Yee Young isn’t treating the Totem Youth like a human being at all. Just dragging him along like that... isn’t she afraid he’ll just stop breathing?’
However, after a night of absorbing the power of the Spirit Beast Inner Core, the Totem Youth’s vital energy had grown much stronger. But his injuries were too severe; it would still be so ti before he regained consciousness.
Jiang Jichen thought for a mont. Looking at the piles of headless Spirit Beast corpses around them, he naturally understood that he had slept on Yee Young’s lap all night while she stood guard over him.
Thinking of this, Jiang Jichen was quite moved.
’But why was I able to sleep so soundly on his lap? It’s really strange!’
Jiang Jichen felt a flicker of doubt. He seed to sense a familiar aura from Yee Young—the aura of soone from the sa world as him.
But Jiang Jichen felt that was completely impossible, so he didn’t dwell on it.
Instead, a different thought popped into his head: ’Yee Young can really hold his liquor! To think I was tricked by him. So devious!’
Thinking indignantly, Jiang Jichen quickened his pace and soon caught up to Yee Young. Seeing the slender youth dragging a large machete in one hand and a big man in the other, Jiang Jichen was speechless. Of course, he also couldn’t help but wince for the burly Totem Youth.
The burly Totem Youth’s body slamd against the rocks on the ground, making loud THUMPING sounds, yet Yee Young wore a completely unconcerned expression.
This suddenly made Jiang Jichen feel that the Totem Youth was truly pitiful.
"You know, you don’t have to drag him like this. We could carry him and have him absorb a Spirit Beast Inner Core at the sa ti. He’d recover much faster that way!" Jiang Jichen said, walking beside Yee Young.
Yee Young stopped and watched him quietly, not saying a word.
Five breaths, ten breaths, fifteen breaths...
Finally, after thirty breaths, Jiang Jichen gave in. "Alright, fine! I’ll help you carry him!"
A hint of a triumphant, cunning smile flashed in Yee Young’s eyes. She then tossed the Totem Youth directly to Jiang Jichen without the slightest hesitation.
’What kind of person is he? If it weren’t for the fact that he let use his lap as a pillow last night, I couldn’t be bothered to deal with him!’
Jiang Jichen had no choice but to take the Totem Youth. He casually popped a Spirit Beast Inner Core into the man’s mouth, then followed after Yee Young.
In truth, Jiang Jichen didn’t know where they were supposed to go either.
They were at the outermost edge of the Training Land. Only by reaching its deepest part could one see the Ancient Ruined City. Therefore, all Trainees had to pass through the Refining Illusion Realm to get there.
This Training Land was extraordinary, even at its edges. The Spiritual Qi was dense, and it even contained wisps of Ancient Spiritual Power.
Before entering, Jiang Jichen had heard Hua Xiaoling’s descriptions of the Ancient Refining Land. He knew the terrain was similar to the Sealed Ancient Land, with vast Ancient Plains, Heaven-Reaching Giant Peaks, scattered Spirit Lakes, and wide-open swamps. The only difference was that the Fierce Beasts here were more savage and powerful, there were more Forbidden Lands, and the deeper one went, the more dangerous it beca. Even a Foundation Establishnt Realm Cultivator could perish at any mont.
Jiang Jichen carried the Totem Youth while Yee Young dragged her large machete, and they passed through the great mountain’s Ancient Forest!
Now, Jiang Jichen also understood why they had been ambushed and slaughtered by the Noble Family Descendants right after arriving.
Apparently, in order to fight over the resources of the Ancient Refining Land, the Noble Family Descendants would first "clear the field." So, those who arrived early had set up ambushes at the Teleportation Point.
Within the mountain’s Ancient Forest, Spirit Beasts would appear from ti to ti.
But because this was the border region, the Spirit Beasts were not very powerful. Whenever they encountered a Profound Level Spirit Beast below Tier Six, Yee Young, who walked ahead, would simply raise her machete and lop its head off. She was absolutely ferocious.
Walking behind, Jiang Jichen felt as if Yee Young was clearing the path for him!
After walking for half a day, Jiang Jichen and Yee Young arrived at a small lake.
The surroundings were lush with aquatic plants and towering ancient trees. The lake water was crystal clear, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds. Moreover, the Ancient Spiritual Qi here was far denser than in other places, a clear sign that this was an extraordinary location.
Yee Young, dragging her large machete, suddenly stopped.
She turned to Jiang Jichen and said, "There’s Treasure dicine at the bottom of the lake!"
Yee Young had altered her tone of voice. While you couldn’t tell it was a woman’s, it was still exceptionally pleasant to the ear.
"Hey, Little Young, your voice is actually really nice to listen to. You should talk more. Wait, did you say there’s Treasure dicine at the bottom of the lake?"
Hearing Yee Young speak, Jiang Jichen was first surprised by how pleasant his voice was, only then reacting to the aning of his words.
Jiang Jichen walked involuntarily to the lake’s edge, amazed.
He hadn’t sensed the aura of any Treasure dicine, yet Yee Young sohow could.
Anything that could be described as Treasure dicine was, by definition, an incredibly rare existence—a Spirit dicine of a higher grade than the Thousand-Petaled Flower.
Yee Young pointed to the center of the lake and said, "It’s right under the middle of the lake!"
Although Jiang Jichen couldn’t sense the Treasure dicine’s aura, he could indeed sense that the Ancient Spiritual Power at the lake’s center was far denser than anywhere else.
"I’ll go take a look. Wait here for !"
Jiang Jichen tossed the Totem Youth aside, dove headfirst into the lake, and swam toward the center.
Yee Young sat by the edge of the lake, hugging her large machete. She watched Jiang Jichen swim underwater, her bare, crystalline-white, and absolutely perfect jade-like feet dipped in the water.
Jiang Jichen quickly reached the center of the lake and began to dive deep toward the bottom.
Here, he could feel the Ancient Spiritual Power even more intensely, but he still couldn’t sense any aura from a Treasure dicine.
However, he followed the trail of dense Ancient Spiritual Power, and the deeper he went, the richer it beca.
The bottom of the lake’s center was unexpectedly deep—over a hundred ters!
It was a good thing he had his powerful physique. If it were a normal Spirit Cultivator, even one at the Minor Grandmaster Realm of the Innate Seventh Layer, they would not necessarily have been able to reach the bottom; their physical body would have been crushed by the water pressure.
Furthermore, the deeper he went, the more bone-chillingly cold the water beca, almost cold enough to freeze and extinguish a person’s Divine Soul.
But Jiang Jichen had refined the Yin Yang Spirit Pool, so naturally, this cold could not harm him.
It was pitch black at the bottom of the lake, but just then, Jiang Jichen saw a point of starlight twinkling in the Darkness.
He quickly approached the source of the light and saw a stalk of Water Spirit Grass!
The Water Spirit Grass, one of the Five Elents Treasure dicines!
Even Jiang Jichen was surprised. He hadn’t expected to find a Water Spirit Treasure dicine at the bottom of this lake.
The Water Spirit Treasure dicine grew at the bottom of the water, its aura rging with the surrounding Water Spirit Power. No wonder even Jiang Jichen couldn’t sense it. Yet Yee Young had sensed it with ease; she clearly possessed an extraordinary and mysterious talent.
Jiang Jichen collected the Water Spirit Treasure dicine and began to float back to the surface.
BOOM!
However, the mont his head broke the surface, several incredibly powerful attacks shot toward him.
