Chapter 117 - Luck
Chapter 117 Luck
“I know that there is a grotto-heaven in this Lingtian Mystic Realm. There is an immortal hall inside, but the entrance is protected by a powerful array formation. For thousands of years, countless experts of our Holy Land have failed to break through this array.
“Thus, with your abilities, you might be able to give it a try. If you can break through the array formation, there must be a priceless treasure inside.
“If you can assist me inside, I won’t say a word on how you distribute the treasures inside. This hall intrigued me, and all I want is to investigate inside to fulfill my wish!” Elder Wan Chu stated solemnly with his sincere gaze.
After saying that, he cupped his hands and bowed. “I know that this is a little abrupt. I hope you can forgive my rudeness. Please consider my request since it’s a good opportunity. Plus, I saw the power you displayed just now. So I believe you have a high chance of entering that immortal hall!”
Li Yu remained expressionless, but he looked at Elder Wan Chu meaningfully and thought to himself.
You and I are strangers who have just met by chance, yet you’re inviting me to enter a random cave with you. A trap?
a
That said, judging from how this elder spoke for me earlier and his tone, it’s unlikely the case.
“Allow me to think about it. I have something important to do right now, so it’s not convenient for me at the moment!” Li Yu cupped his hands. He felt that the urgent matter at hand was to bring Ye Qiu along and complete the mission on the Qing Cang Ancient Emperor’s Treasury. As for whatever hall that was, he was in no hurry.
“Alright, Cultivator Li, please accept this token. You can contact me by inserting the ‘Hai’ character into this token anytime you wish to go!” Elder Wan Chu took out a token with the Grand Primordium Holy Land’s logo and handed it to Li Yu.
“Sure!” Li Yu took the token, cupped his hands, and bid farewell before flying off with his junior brothers and sisters.
There were directions provided in the Qing Cang Ancient Emperor’s treasure mission. He only needed to follow it to find the exact. “You’re saying that Junior Brother Wan Jie was the one who let go?” Li Yu asked Ji Qinglan.
“Yeah, I don’t know why Ninth Brother did that either. Eldest Senior Brother, can you find my Ninth Brother?” Ji Qinglan asked somewhat worriedly.
“I can, but we’ll let him off first!” Li Yu felt that Ji Wanjie had deliberately left to leave the group and go solo.
This guy must have a lot of secrets.
I guess there is a need to interrogate him properly. After flying for a long time, they suddenly heard a commotion of a group of people arguing from below. “Hmph, this Earth Saint Fruit is ours for sure!”
“That will depend on whether your Su Family has the ability. Chen disciples, listen up. We’re up for a fight!”
“Hey, hey, hey, Brother Su, Brother Chen, don’t ruin the goodwill of our families because of one Earth Saint Fruit. Since our three families have discovered this Earth Saint Fruit, why don’t we each send a junior of the same cultivation level to spar? The Earth Saint Fruit belongs to whoever wins!”
“Hmph, that’s needless since we’ll win. You better not deny your loss later!”
“Us Chen family won’t lose!”
Li Yu glanced at the source of the commotion. In the forest not far below, a large group of people was in an argument beside an old tree with a silver trunk and golden leaves.
An Earth Saint Fruit was hanging from the old tree, and Li Yu recognized it.
The Heavenly Dao Rankings had once rewarded him with an Earth Saint Fruit.
This fruit was a natural spirit herb and was indeed a precious treasure. An Earth Saint Fruit could allow a cultivator to improve his cultivation by at least five years.
Furthermore, the better one’s aptitude was, the greater the effect.
Not only that, but the Earth Saint Fruit could also improve one’s constitution.
At the same time, it contained a trace of the power of the earth. After consuming it, one could utilize a trace of the earth’s power in his magic power, making it more robust and powerful.
Li Yu’s knowledge of these came from Li Qingyun and Tang Chi. Tang Chi had consumed the Earth Saint Fruit and knew its effects well.
Therefore, Li Yu could understand why those cultivation families were fighting over the fruit.
Li Yu and the others flew past their heads
Immediately after that, as Li Yu and his company flew past this mountain and reached the opposite side, he was surprised to find more than ten Earth Saint Trees growing on the hillside. Each tree had at least three or four Earth Saint Fruits.
He saw at least a few dozen Earth Saint Fruits on the entire hillside at one glance.
“Holy shit, am I seeing things?!” Li Yu blinked his eyes forcefully as he could not believe his luck. Such rare Earth Saint Trees grow in clusters?
Furthermore, one tree here could grow several Earth Saint Fruits.
“Earth Saint Fruits! There are so many of them!” Tang Chi also saw the Earth Saint Fruits on the hillside and cried out in amazement.
He was the only person among them who had eaten the Earth Saint Fruit before, so he recognized them immediately. “There are actually so many Earth Saint Fruits!” Wu Chang flew out of Li Yu’s body in shock.
“Yeah. What kind of luck is this? I’ve never seen so many Earth Saint Fruits in the Immortal Domain all at once!” Elder Nie also came out in surprise.
Everyone quickly approached the hillside.
“Haha, those people almost fought over one Earth Sacred Fruit. They would never have thought that there would be that many here a mountain away!” Tang Chi laughed excitedly.
“Not everyone has such luck! Junior brothers and sisters, you’re in for a treat today!” Li Yu laughed.
“We have benefited from our eldest senior brother’s luck. I’m afraid we will never encounter such a fortuitous encounter in our lives!” Ye Qiu chuckled.
It was not flattery since it was the truth.
Ji Qinglan, Gu Yuqi, and the rest nodded with faces full of excitement.
Although Su Mu, Meng Xueqi, and the other younger disciples were also infected by their seniors’ enthusiasm, they did not know what the Earth Saint Fruit meant for them yet.
However, they need not ask much. From the reactions of Li Yu, Wu Chang, and Old Nie, it was not difficult to guess that they had found precious treasures.
“Hold on, these Earth Saint Fruits aren’t the only thing on this hillside!” Old Nie’s buzzing voice sounded again.
Elder Nie realized that many natural spirit herbs were growing on the forest floor as they approached the hillside.
There were over ten types of spirit herbs like Qilin Flower, Dragon Blood Grass, and Silver Feather Grass. There were at least a few of each kind, while that was only a rough observation.
“So many other natural spirit herbs are growing on this mountain. This is simply a natural spirit herb garden! Wow, this mountain is just amazing!” Elder Nie exclaimed. Even in the Immortal Domain, he had never heard of a place filled with natural herbs like this.
“But this mountain seems a little strange. Why are there so many natural herbs growing on it?” Elder Nie pointed out.
