1156: Chapter 1154: Heaven-reaching Eye!
The following afternoon, Lin Bai grood himself before stepping out of his quarters.
Upon arriving at Tianbao Tower atop the Five Peaks, Lin Bai stated his purpose and a warrior guided him to a private room.
“Miss Gong Chan, the person you’ve been waiting for has arrived,” the warrior respectfully reported.
With that, the room’s door opened, revealing the beautiful figure of Gong Chan.
Seeing Lin Bai, she imdiately bead with joy, “Brother Lin is here, please co in quickly.”
“Thank you, Miss Gong Chan,” Lin Bai responded with a faint smile, and entered the private room.
It was then that Lin Bai realized there weren’t just the two of them in the private room.
Six other warriors were present, wearing solemn expressions.
As Lin Bai entered, their eyes shone with a sharp light, sizing him up.
After Lin Bai looked at the six people, Gong Chan quickly explained, “Brother Lin, let introduce you.
This is Senior Brother Jin Liang, the owner of the Gold Sand.”
Gong Chan pointed at a young man while speaking and smiling to Lin Bai.
Lin Bai greeted him with cupped hands, “Senior Brother Jin Liang, I am honored to et you.”
Jin Liang rose to his feet, smiling and returning the gesture, “I am Jin Liang.
These gentlen are my brothers in life and death.
We six brought the Gold Sand out from a perilous site.
Therefore, for the matter at hand, their presence is required.
I hope Junior Brother Lin Bai will understand.”
At this mont, Gong Chan whispered to Lin Bai, “These six individuals are warriors who have spent years in the Red Immortal Sect seeking treasures.
All of them have reached the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Elixir Realm and are extrely formidable.
Due to their constant treasure-hunting, they possess a vast array of skills!”
“On the Five Peaks of the Miracle Ridge, these six are known as the ‘Heaven-reaching Eye,'” she added.
“It is said that there is no treasure within the Red Immortal Sect Battlefield that they cannot find.”
“As long as the price is right, and it exists in the Chi Xian Sect Battlefield, they are able to find it,” Gong Chan continued.
“Originally, the Heaven-reaching Eye group had seven mbers, but one died not long ago…” Gong Chan slowly inford.
This provided Lin Bai with a certain understanding of these six people!
Indeed, they were a team specialized in treasure hunting, which explained their extraordinary air.
Lin Bai nodded with a smile, “No problem.
Then let’s discuss the matter at hand.
Senior Brother Jin Liang, where did you obtain this Gold Sand from?”
Upon hearing Lin Bai directly asking the question, Jin Liang smiled and responded, “Did I not already ntion it just now?”
“This Gold Sand was brought out by us from a perilous site within the Red Immortal Sect Battlefield!”
“However, although the Gold Sand is extraordinary, we do not know its origin.”
“We just returned from the Red Immortal Sect Battlefield a few days ago, and heard that Tianbao Tower was looking for the seller of the Gold Sand.
So, we imdiately contacted Miss Gong Chan.
I would like to know if Junior Brother Lin Bai is looking for this Gold Sand because you know sothing about its…” Jin Liang asked with a smile.
Lin Bai smiled back, “Senior Brother Jin Liang, don’t worry about it.
I just found the Gold Sand to be extraordinary and wanted to collect a few more pieces for artifact refining.
Senior Brother Jin Liang must have noticed it too, this Gold Sand is incredibly hard, and can greatly increase the durability of weapons when used in refining, making them hard to shatter,” Lin Bai said casually with a smile.
“So that’s the case, it seems Junior Brother Lin Bai is also unaware of the specific utility of this Gold Sand?” Jin Liang replied with a slight smile.
Lin Bai didn’t know?
Of course, Jin Liang didn’t believe such a ghost story from Lin Bai!
Perhaps it was because Lin Bai did know, but simply didn’t want to disclose it.
Eager to steer the conversation back, Lin Bai inquired, “Senior Brother Jin Liang, may I ask if you could tell the exact provenance of this Gold Sand?”
Caught off guard, Jin Liang awkwardly chuckled and said, “Please forgive for this one, Junior Brother Lin Bai, it’s a sensitive issue and I am not at liberty to disclose it.
However, if Junior Brother Lin Bai truly desires the Gold Sand, it just so happens that we are planning another trip to that place soon.”
“If Junior Brother Lin Bai is free these coming days, you are welco to join us,” he offered.
“If Junior Brother Lin Bai is unwilling to go, then I’m afraid I cannot disclose the location of Gold Sand to you.”
Jin Liang said with a faint smile.
Upon hearing this, Lin Bai pondered for a long ti before asking, “Could it be that the treasures of this place have not yet been taken away by you and your companions, which is why you are reluctant to speak of it?”
Jin Liang smiled aningfully and did not continue.
Seeing Jin Liang’s expression, Lin Bai imdiately nodded.
If there truly were treasures there, then naturally it would not be easy to tell Lin Bai!
Seeing Lin Bai hesitate, Jin Liang imdiately continued to speak, “Please forgive , Junior Brother Lin Bai, but indeed there are still treasures there.
If we are not mistaken, there is also a vast Spiritual dicine Garden…”
“Thus, please forgive , Junior Brother Lin Bai!”
Jin Liang said faintly.
“Spiritual dicine Garden…” Hearing this, Lin Bai was imdiately greatly shocked!
Over the past month, Lin Bai had been diligently practicing the Ancient Divine Scripture and found that the amount of Spiritual dicine needed was exorbitant.
Lin Bai was just considering where to find a large quantity of Spiritual dicine.
Unexpectedly, the place where Jin Liang obtained Gold Sand had a Spiritual dicine Garden…
This piqued Lin Bai’s interest.
After much thought, Lin Bai said, “Hehe, if Senior Brother Jin Liang does not mind my lower cultivation and the burden I might cause, then I would indeed like to join you and your companions on this journey!”
Jin Liang laughed, “So does this an Junior Brother Lin Bai has agreed?”
Lin Bai nodded, “May I know when we will depart?”
Jin Liang said, “Our original plan was to depart at dawn tomorrow, but due to Junior Brother Lin Bai joining us, we probably need to give you two more days to prepare.
So how about we set out three days from now?”
“That would be fine.” Lin Bai nodded in agreent.
Jin Liang nodded with a smile, “Then it’s settled.
At dawn three days from now, we’ll et at the Teleportation Point on the Second Peak.
Please don’t miss the appointnt, Junior Brother Lin Bai.”
“Alright.”
Lin Bai nodded in assent.
Afterward, Jin Liang gave Lin Bai so advice about the journey, including the suggestion to purchase more Healing Pills and the like!
Half a day later, Jin Liang, along with the others, left the Tianbao Tower.
“Thank you for your assistance, Miss Gong Chan.
This Token has 100,000 points on it, please take it as a token of appreciation for your hard work,” Lin Bai said as he handed over an unused Token to Gong Chan.
Gong Chan, delighted, accepted it and imdiately reminded him, “Brother Lin, Jin Liang and his five companions have been friends for many years.
If you encounter danger in the treasure sites, I’m afraid they will be able to protect each other but might not be able to look after you.”
“So please be extra cautious, Brother Lin,” Gong Chan advised.
“I am well aware,” Lin Bai said with a faint smile, “By the way, Miss Gong Chan, you ntioned that Jin Liang and his group originally had seven people, but one died not long ago.
Who was that person?”
Gong Chan replied with a laugh, “The one who died had quite a reputation.
His na was Ke Han, and he was a favorite in front of the current Saint!”
Thud!
As soon as Lin Bai heard the na “Ke Han,” his face instantly turned solemn and his pupils contracted sharply!
“It seems that trouble is coming my way.”
Lin Bai gave a cold smile, “But first things first, finding Gold Sand is the priority.
Also, I need to make so preparations to avoid a repeat of what happened last ti at the Saint Mansion…”
