At this mont, Ling Xiao, because there was no one nearby, directly released the Mountain and River Martial Soul.
He was always afraid of being discovered, so he suppressed his terrifying Martial Soul.
Only now did he realize how truly terrifying his Martial Soul was.
"There’s no ti!"
Ling Xiao could sense dozens of terrifying presences speeding towards him.
However, about one-tenth of the lake had not yet been absorbed.
"Without decisiveness, one invites chaos; it’s best not to be too greedy."
Thinking of this, Ling Xiao decided to abandon that last tenth of the lake since he had already obtained most of it.
Then, he quickly left.
Yet even though he left, he did not go far.
Instead, he waited in the dense forest for the crowd to arrive.
As long as there were enough people, even if he appeared again, he shouldn’t be suspected.
"What is this! How could there be such abundant Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, quickly report to the Island Master, maybe we need to temporarily change our mission."
A mont later, a group of experts from the Holy Dynasty Immortal Island arrived first.
Although only about one-tenth of the lake remained, it was still over a thousand square ters large.
Feeling the abundant Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi released from the lake water, the people from the Immortal Island realized they had discovered a treasure.
They were originally commanded to find the person who had destroyed the Immortal Seal.
However, upon seeing this lake, they couldn’t decide right away.
As a result, dozens of experts surrounded this lake.
"Heh, humans are indeed greedy; even the high and mighty Ji Clan from the Holy Dynasty Immortal Island is no exception."
Hidden in the shadows, Ling Xiao couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh.
At this mont, he stayed hidden, carefully observing the remaining lake, only to discover at the depths a different target of his— the Black Fire Lotus.
Clearly growing underwater, the lotus was burning with a bizarre fla, which was truly peculiar.
"The quantity of this Black Fire Lotus is limited, and I estimate many people will covet it. Later, I need to seize more under the cover of the crowd."
Ling Xiao thought to himself.
Although his Mountain and River World also had a lake with Black Fire Lotus, combined, there were less than a hundred in total.
He had seventy in his body, with about thirty outside.
This amount of Black Fire Lotus was certainly not enough for him.
If possible, he truly wanted to be a bit greedier and get more.
A mont later, more and more martial artists gathered here.
Ling Xiao estimated there were over ten thousand people, including so Cave Heaven Realm Martial Artists.
There were also so familiar faces, including Ji ngng, that middle-aged man surnad Chen, the elderly couple he had encountered at Ghost Villa, and that Bald Head.
These people were originally nearby, so with changes happening here, they definitely had to co and see.
Seeing enough people, Ling Xiao quietly mingled into the crowd.
"What a big lake, such abundant Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi; cultivating here for a day might be better than a hundred days elsewhere."
That bald-headed martial artist exclaid.
"Though perhaps not that exaggerated, the difference isn’t far, and since qualifications vary, the benefits obtained might differ as well, but no matter how you look at it, this place is truly an excellent location for cultivation."
The elderly couple said as well.
"Hurry and grab a spot!"
So unknown person shouted from the crowd, and hundreds of figures almost simultaneously shot towards the lake.
Kill!
Hundreds of figures shot out, and nearly a hundred people were killed in an instant, their bodies tossed aside.
"This area is already occupied by the Immortal Island; without the Island Master’s permission, no one may enter!"
Among the killers, there was a person whose cultivation level had reached the Sixth Dongtian Realm.
He looked at all the martial artists, his voice was icy.
"Why should we! Even though your Holy Dynasty Immortal Island is temporarily the master of this island, you have no right to monopolize it. Listen to , we’re many, and if it doesn’t work, we can destroy them. I don’t believe the Ji Clan dares to offend all of us."
Greed can always make people forget fear.
As soon as soone shouted, those previously killed martial artists were imdiately forgotten.
Even more martial artists rushed forward.
This ti, the Ji Clan had no way out.
After all, there were only a few dozen of them, facing over ten thousand people, and many were also Cave Heaven Realm experts.
In almost an instant, all these dozens of people were killed.
Ling Xiao watched this scene and couldn’t help shaking his head; weren’t the Ji Clan mbers too foolish?
Normally, you might be able to intimidate these people.
But now with such a huge treasure in front of them, can you really stop them?
Shaking his head, it didn’t matter whether the other party was foolish or not; now he had to seize the Black Fire Lotus.
Blending into the crowd, Ling Xiao’s figure flashed and he jumped into the lake.
While others were preparing to cultivate there, he plunged straight into the water.
Relying on his powerful Soul Power and the Tai Chi Eye, he clearly knew the precise location of the Black Fire Lotus.
"Go quickly and look, see if there are any Black Fire Lotus at the bottom of the lake!"
Ji ngng’s target was also the Black Fire Lotus; she wasn’t very interested in cultivation.
Therefore, seeing those Ji Clan experts being killed, she was scared in her heart but still ordered her guards.
At this mont, the guards revealed nacing smiles.
"Idiot, who would help you?"
They had already been completely captivated by the lake and how could they possibly help Ji ngng.
Moreover, given the current situation where the Ji Clan and these martial artists had beco enemies, how could they dare ddle?
They could even expose Ji ngng’s identity, allowing these people to help them get rid of this girl.
"You are mbers of the Ji Clan; how dare you be so disrespectful to the master?"
The middle-aged man surnad Chen spoke coldly.
"Hehe, Old Chen, don’t scare us like that. Right now, we can still coexist peacefully, but if we reveal the young lady’s identity, do you think those people will spare her?"
The guards were more interested in going into the lake to cultivate; if they could cultivate for even a mont, they would consider it worthwhile, without wanting to completely offend Ji ngng.
"Insolent!"
The middle-aged man surnad Chen beca angry.
"Uncle Chen, let them be. I didn’t expect them to help anyway."
At this point, Ji ngng shook her head, stopping the middle-aged man surnad Chen from speaking further.
"Hehe, Miss ngng is sensible, goodbye."
All the guards instantly plunged into the water.
They now held Ji ngng’s weakness; if Ji ngng dared to act against them, they could imdiately expose her identity, and whatever happened then was not their concern.
"Miss, let’s go down too. This lake ford after the Black Volcano was leveled, there’s a chance there might be Black Fire Lotus at the bottom."
The middle-aged man surnad Chen said.
Although he was angry, he was also helpless; even though he was not weak and stronger than any guard,
as the guards had said, if they exposed Ji ngng’s identity, even if she didn’t die, she would likely be taken hostage.
So here, he had to swallow his pride for now.
