Mortal's Purple Sky Cave Heaven

Chapter 174 Obtain the treasure
Madam Wen and Tian Wuzi looked unwilling. Who would be willing to have hundreds of years of practice destroyed in one day, and die and disappear from this world?

However, compared to struggling to death without knowing one's own strength, where the Nascent Soul will be imprisoned and suffer the pain of soul-searching, it may not be a bad thing to be freed like Master Qing Yi.

After figuring it out, Madam Wen and the other person slapped their crowns of the head at the same time, and a Nascent Soul emerged from each of them. Then, with a pinch of their fingers, they dissipated into tiny points of light and disappeared.

Nie Zhaonan felt neither sad nor happy about this scene. He stretched out his hand and sent out two sword energies. With a flash of golden light, he heard two "puff" sounds, and the heads of the two spirit beasts, the Cold Dragon and the Li Turtle, flew high into the sky.

Nie Zhaonan flicked his sleeves, and the corpses of the two spirit beasts flew over, along with the storage bags on the waists of Qing Yi and the other two.

After throwing the two storage bags to the two old men named Zhao beside him, Nie Zhaonan put away the other things.

After the two old men surnamed Zhao took the storage bags, they both showed delight on their faces.

They clasped their fists in unison and said, "Thank you, Palace Master, for the reward!" Their tone was extremely respectful, as if they were treating senior masters.

"This is what you deserve. No need to thank me." Nie Zhaonan said with a flick of his sleeves.

Naturally, Nie Zhaonan could not take all the spoils for himself, as it would be too ugly to eat like that. Besides, the two old men surnamed Zhao had made great contributions on this trip, so he could not let them work in vain.

The correct way to rule your subordinates is to use both kindness and severity and to clearly distinguish between rewards and punishments.

"The two of us are just assisting on the side. The victory in this battle all depends on the power of the Palace Master!" The old man surnamed Zhao flattered with a smile.

"What Elder Zhao said is true, and the Palace Master has obtained the most precious treasure in the Chaos Star Sea today. With the help of the Xu Tian Ding, those jumping clowns from both the righteous and evil worlds can be easily destroyed. There is great hope that the Palace Master will be able to glimpse the charm of a higher realm in the future." Elder Xiao spoke kind words as if they were free.

The two old men surnamed Zhao have now also realized that, as far as the current state of affairs is concerned, the magical powers displayed by Nie Zhaonan are already stronger than the Twin Saints of Heavenly Stars.

The two of them had no choice but to flatter like that.

"Who can predict what will happen in the future?" Nie Zhaonan waved his hand and retracted the sword formation. He did not feel proud or complacent because of what the two said.

"Now that the big issue has been resolved, we will separate and each choose a stone chamber to get the treasure. After leaving the Xutian Palace, we will gather again and return to Tianxing City together." Nie Zhaonan touched his chin and gave the order casually.

"I will follow the Palace Master's orders!"

The two old men surnamed Zhao responded in unison.

So, Nie Zhaonan flew up without hesitation and reached the distance of dozens of feet in the blink of an eye.

He gently waved his hand at the light shield, and a golden sword light shot out, instantly cutting a large hole about ten feet wide in the wall of the shield.

Nie Zhaonan turned into a long rainbow and flew out from the gap.

After the light shield was restored to its original state, the old man surnamed Zhao and Elder Xiao stayed there for a while, chatting about something, before they flew away.

After a while, after turning left and right several times, Nie Zhaonan came to a high wall at the edge of the inner hall, and behind this high wall was the teleportation array marked by the tattered scroll.

With a single raised hand, five golden sword beams shot out from his fingers out of thin air and penetrated directly into the stone wall several feet deep.

There is no forbidden defense on this wall, and there is indeed another secret inside.

Then Nie Zhaonan slightly rotated his five fingers, and the five sword beams simultaneously rotated half a circle. A circular hole about ten feet high was easily drawn by the extremely sharp sword beams.

With a gentle push with the other hand, a big hole appeared on the stone wall, but it was dark inside.

With a flick of his wrist, the sword light suddenly disappeared, but a white ball of light floated up from his palm. It was one of the many spirit beads obtained from Feng Xi's cave.

The spirit pearl floated into the cave, and Nie Zhaonan moved without hesitation and entered it lightly.

This is a small secret room, no more than two meters high, and only about fifty or six meters long and wide. The ground is covered with thick dust, and it is obvious that no one has been here for a long time.

But there really was an extremely simple teleportation array in the middle of the secret room.

The array was arranged crookedly, and the runes engraved on it looked extremely rough, as if someone who didn't understand the array at all had copied it.

Nie Zhaonan walked forward and carefully examined the teleportation array.

Although this teleportation array looks very simple, it is a complete array and seems to have been specially made in this appearance.

Nie Zhaonan didn't want to guess why the ancient cultivator did this, so he took out a few spirit stones and quickly embedded them in the grooves on the four sides of the teleportation array.

After a buzzing sound, the magic circle emitted a faint fluorescent light.

Nie Zhaonan stepped onto the teleportation array without hesitation and disappeared in a flash of white light.

The next moment, Nie Zhaonan's figure appeared in a light mist, which was somewhat damp and warm, and there was an indescribable fragrance coming to his nose.

Nie Zhaonan looked at the scene before him.

This is a huge stone chamber, about thirty or forty feet in size, with an ordinary stone door on each side.

I saw a milky white pool of more than ten feet in size about ten feet ahead. The white mist and fragrance were emanating from the pool.

Opposite Nie Zhao, on the other side of the pool, on the stone wall several feet away, there was a dragon head relief carved from white jade. There was a green groove three or four feet below the dragon head.

Nie Zhaonan walked a few steps forward to the edge of the pool and looked down at the milky white liquid.

Reaching out his hand into the pool, Nie Zhaonan easily scooped up some water and brought it to his eyes.

The water in these pools has a unique fragrance and is filled with the pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It is actually a spring of extremely high quality.

But after a moment, the strange fragrance and spiritual energy disappeared without a trace right under Nie Zhaonan's nose at a speed visible to the naked eye, and turned into ordinary clear water.

Although he had anticipated this scene, Nie Zhaonan couldn't help but sigh inwardly that it was a pity that he would never have the chance to get such a top-grade spiritual eye spring.

With his current strength, he is unable to shake the restrictions in the Xutian Palace and take out the spiritual spring.

However, the regret on his face only flashed by for a moment, and Nie Zhaonan flew up without hesitation, came to the dragon head relief, and stared at the groove below.

There was only a mass of extremely viscous milky white liquid inside, which emitted a strong fragrance and contained extremely amazing spiritual energy.

It is the thousand-year-old spiritual milk. Just taking a drop of this spiritual milk can instantly restore most of the magic power of a Nascent Soul cultivator. Its value is so great that even tens of thousands of spiritual stones cannot be found for a single drop.

Nie Zhaonan took out a white jade porcelain bottle without hesitation, carefully placed the ten thousand year old spiritual milk in it, and sealed it. "This spiritual spring has accumulated for tens of thousands of years to produce such a small bottle. This is also the result of the very clever design of the spiritual spring." Nie Zhaonan glanced at the jade bottle in his hand, muttered in a low voice, and then put the jade bottle away.

"Although the quantity is a little less, my own mana is extremely strong, and I don't need to replenish it too often. This amount of spiritual milk is enough."

Nie Zhaonan didn't dwell too much on this matter and turned around and walked towards a stone door.

There was a white glow flickering above the stone gate, which was exactly the same forbidden light as the one on the stone doors of the secret rooms on the first to fifth floors.

However, the strength of the restriction here is far stronger than that of other stone gates. Even a Jindan cultivator will not be able to break this restriction by force.

Nie Zhaonan glanced at the restriction on it. It was not very difficult. According to his level of formation skills, he could break the restriction in two or three hours.

However, Nie Zhaonan did not step forward to study it. He suddenly raised his hand and a small golden sword shot out, with golden arcs bouncing on the sword.

"Bah" sound.

The golden sword easily cut a hole in the restriction, and then the white light disappeared without a trace under the impact of the golden electric arc, and the restriction on it also disappeared without a trace.

The golden sword continued to move forward, hitting the stone gate directly. The stone gate was pierced through like tofu, without any obstruction.

Then the small sword made a slight circle on the stone gate, and a gap several meters in size appeared.

After waving at the golden flying sword and taking it back, Nie Zhaonan walked into the stone chamber.

There was nothing else in the stone chamber except a platform more than one person high, on which there was a small spiritual spring the size of a bowl.

A strange tree more than one foot long stood in the middle.

The surface of this wood is charred, rough, and full of holes, which is extremely ugly.

But it is the soul-nourishing tree, one of the three sacred trees in the world of immortal cultivation.

This wood can be worn on the body to nourish the soul and spirit, slowly strengthen the consciousness, and even allow the soul to reside in it, ensuring that the mind does not dissipate.

Nie Zhaonan smiled slightly and transplanted the soul-nourishing tree into the Zixiao Cave without hesitation.

Then, with a flash of white light, Nie Zhaonan was teleported away from Xutian Palace by the restrictions in the stone house.

A few hours later, over an unknown sea, three beams of light were speeding towards the distance.
These three people were Nie Zhaonan and his two companions who had completed the treasure hunt and were teleported out. At this time, they were rushing back to Tianxing City.

I have been staying in the Xutian Palace for such a long time, and I don’t know what the battle situation between the Xinggong and the Nixing Alliance is like.

The three of them were all mid-Nascent Soul cultivators, so their speed was naturally as fast as lightning, incredibly fast, several times faster than that of ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators.

The magic power consumed by flying at full speed was just a drop in the bucket for the three of them. The most important thing right now was to get back to Tianxing City as quickly as possible.

In this way, in just five days, Nie Zhaonan and the other two had completed half of the journey.

On the way, Nie Zhaonan and his companions did not encounter any other Nascent Soul or Core Forming cultivators, but they did meet quite a few cultivators in the Foundation Establishment and even Qi Refining stages.

However, no key information could be obtained from these low-level cultivators, so Nie Zhaonan and the other two did not pay much attention to them and just passed by them.

When these cultivators saw the speed of Nie Zhaonan and his companions' escape, they naturally knew that they had encountered a senior master in the Nascent Soul stage, and they did not dare to step forward to harass Nie Zhaonan and his companions.

However, as they got closer to Tianxing City, they met more and more cultivators on the road.

Finally, one day later, Nie Zhaonan and the other two saw the first Jindan cultivator they had met along the way.

But this monk was fleeing in a very embarrassed and fast manner, with traces of blood on his body, looking like he was escaping for his life.

When the gray-haired old man saw Nie Zhaonan and the other two standing in the air in front of him, an extremely excited look appeared in his eyes. He activated his magic power and his figure became faster.

"Hello, senior! I am the owner of one of the twenty-four outer islands, Ma Changkong." The gray-haired old man stopped his escape light a few feet in front of Nie Zhao and the other two, revealed his figure, then bowed and said, his tone full of gratitude for surviving a calamity.

As the lord of the island under the jurisdiction of Xinggong, he naturally recognized that the two old men surnamed Zhao were wearing the clothes of Xinggong's Nascent Soul stage elders.

Nie Zhaonan, who was standing half a step ahead of the two Star Palace elders and wearing a dark black robe, although he didn't know his identity, he believed that he should be with the two Star Palace elders.

The old man surnamed Zhao, who had browsed through many portraits of island owners, scanned him with his spiritual sense. There was no disguise in any magic, and it was undoubtedly Ma Changkong himself.

At the moment when Ma Changkong revealed his identity, two beams of light, one silver and one green, came rushing over from afar with great momentum and appeared a hundred feet away.

One of them wore a silver shirt and a golden belt around his waist, while the other was a strange evil cultivator in a green robe. Such distinctive clothing features revealed their identities as cultivators belonging to the righteous and evil paths.

These two men were both mid-stage Jindan cultivators, no wonder they were able to chase Ma Changkong to this extent.

As soon as the green-robed old man stopped his escape light, he released his spiritual sense without hesitation and probed towards Nie Zhaonan and the other two. However, his spiritual sense was like mud flowing into the sea, and there was no movement at all.

Seeing that two of them were wearing Xinggong costumes, he immediately cried out inwardly that something was wrong.

Then he shouted to his companions, "It's the Nascent Soul monster from Xinggong. Run away."

As soon as he said this, the green-robed old man flew away without hesitation, and the other Confucian monk followed closely behind him in fear, flying back in the direction they came from, even three times faster than when they came.

Seeing the two people's funny and hilarious behavior, Nie Zhaonan also chuckled.

Because these two men were chasing Ma Changkong too closely, they did not use their spiritual sense to investigate the situation of Nie Zhaonan and the other two from a distance, and they flew here rashly.

With the two sides being so close to each other, there was no way the two green-robed old men would escape with their lives.

Elder Xiao did not move at all. He raised his hand without any hesitation and a misty white sword flew out of his hand. After a crisp sword sound, it shot towards the two green-robed old men at a high speed.

Between breaths, only two "puff" sounds were heard.

The white flying sword with two storage bags hanging on it flew back to Elder Xiao.

"These youngsters from both the righteous and evil paths are so bold and presumptuous that they actually dare to call me Yuanying old monster to my face." Elder Xiao snorted coldly, seeming very unhappy that the two green-robed elders did not respect their seniors.
