Chapter 283

"It's too dark here, I'm afraid it won't be easy to get in."

"Yes, Peak Master, how about we go in again in the morning?"

When they arrived at the house, everyone was happy and breathed a sigh of relief.

Traveling at night was exhausting, but thankfully, it was all worth it.

However, in their current state, they cannot venture into the mansion at night. It's not hard to imagine that there must be dangers such as monsters inside. Even when they were in excellent condition, they wouldn't dare to go in, let alone now.

Chen Lan nodded. "Now that we've arrived, there's no need to rush. Let's rest here. No one needs to be on duty tonight."

It's not that we don't need to be on duty, but it's not long before dawn, and we won't have much time to rest before we have to get up.

Another reason is that everyone is still excited and probably won't be in the mood to sleep or cultivate for a while.

The disciples agreed and all breathed a sigh of relief.

"Great, I can finally take a break."

"Yes, I'm completely exhausted, but I didn't take any pills to replenish my spiritual energy today, hehe, so I saved some, right?"

"Indeed, it's best to take fewer pills."

However, after saying that, he realized something was wrong.

It's best to consume elixirs sparingly, because excessive consumption can lead to the accumulation of toxic substances, which can hinder cultivation.

But don't forget, their sect has a way to cure pill poisoning!
In this way, it seems that taking pills isn't such a big deal after all.

However, even so, it's best not to seek treatment from the sect if possible, otherwise, wouldn't that cost crystals or contribution points? Every little bit saved counts.

Some people collapsed on the ground, closing their eyes to rest; some took pills to recover; and others, though physically exhausted, were in high spirits, excitedly chatting with their fellow disciples.

Some people are completely focused on this mansion—

This mansion is full of treasures, there must be so many!
You have to understand that this secret realm is already incredibly rich, and everyone has gained a lot these past few days. It's no exaggeration to say that what they've obtained in three days here is enough for them to cultivate for a year.

If we were to acquire this family's treasure as well, wouldn't that be...?

Thinking about it this way, I felt incredibly excited. If it weren't so dark and not an ideal time to go inside, the disciples probably wouldn't have been able to resist at all.

While they were resting, the people of Wuyamen were also resting.

"Damn it, at least we can finally rest for a bit. Those people from the Immortal Sect are really energetic; they haven't had a break all day," someone lamented, rubbing their back.

They traveled just as far as the Immortal Sect had, and in fact, they hunted only slightly fewer monsters than the Immortal Sect.

This is because the distance between the two is a bit far, and the Immortal Sect was in a hurry to get on their way today, so they did not kill all the demonic beasts along the way. Those that could not be killed could only be dealt with by the disciples of the Black Cliff Sect.

In fact, the atmosphere among the Xianlai Sect members was much more relaxed and cheerful than that among the Wuya Sect members. There was a stronger sense of camaraderie within the Xianlai Sect, with everyone helping each other and having good relationships with one another.

However, Wuya Sect was different. Its atmosphere was chaotic and corrupt. There was no camaraderie among its disciples. They only knew how to compete to see who had the strongest fist.

So even though the Xianlai Sect was a bit tired from their journey, the atmosphere was at least pleasant, and someone would crack a joke to cheer everyone up, so it wasn't too tense.

However, the Wuyamen remained silent, or rather, each spoke their own mind. When they encountered good items, it was all a matter of who could grab them first. Sometimes, the fights almost broke out over the items, and the atmosphere among the groups was tense.

"What's wrong? You're not even as good as those weaklings from the Immortal Sect?" someone mocked.

"Bullshit! Who said I'm inferior to them?"

"They can all hold on, but what about you? You're such a waste." "Damn it, if you say another word, I'll slap your mouth shut!"

"Come on, who's afraid of whom?"

"Shut up, all of you!" Jiang Rong hissed. "Have you forgotten that we're currently in hiding? Are you trying to make such a commotion so that the Immortal Sect won't hear you?"

Everyone then fell silent, no longer daring to speak.

But suddenly, they heard some noise coming from the Xianlai Sect.

The noise that everyone could hear without any tools must have been extremely loud, so almost everyone on the Wuya Sect side stood up abruptly.

"what happened?"

"What's wrong with the Immortal Sect? Have they discovered us?"

"Damn it, we've definitely been exposed!"

Everyone's expression changed.

But Jiang Rong noticed something was amiss. "Shut up, everyone. Something's happened to them."

Something had indeed happened at the Immortal Sect. The disciples were resting when suddenly someone let out a wail.

Someone approached the riverbank, wanting to get some water to drink and wash their face, but as soon as they reached out, something inside bit them, severing half of their finger!

He saw the scales on the thing, and it seemed to be a very small fish.

That wasn't all. It seemed as if all the fish in the river had been startled, and then they emerged from the water and swam towards the disciples of the Immortal Sect.

The fact that a fish could emerge from the water and swim on land terrified the disciples of the Immortal Sect; they all looked as if they had seen a ghost.

But upon closer inspection, it became clear that it wasn't a fish, but something resembling a water snake, though shorter than a snake and longer than a fish.

The thing emerged from the water, wet and nimble, and moved swiftly across the ground. It would even launch itself to bite, and if it did, it would at least tear off a piece of flesh.

The disciples of the Immortal Sect are no longer the rookies they once were. After these days of battles, they have developed a degree of composure and shrewdness.

There was no time to panic; everyone instinctively picked up their weapons and began to fight, standing back to back in different directions to ensure they could defend themselves best against any enemy attack.

"Cut off the vital spot!" Chen Lan's calm voice rang out.

"Yes!"

There were so many of these snake-like fish that they swam around in dense numbers. Some timid cultivators were almost scared out of their wits, but now was not the time to be afraid.

Even the disciples with weaker Qi Refining stage cultivation joined the battle, wielding their swords to slay them, and many were bitten in the process.

In a short time, a field of corpses was left behind, and their stench spread, making people nauseous.

"Oh no! Something's coming from the ground!" Someone spotted something first and immediately shouted a warning.

A rustling sound came from the ground, clearly indicating that the sound was approaching them.

The disciples were sweating profusely. It was already difficult to see at night, and now an unknown thing was attacking them from the shadows, which was really unsettling.

"I think I stepped on something... Ah, it's a rainbow scorpion!" a trembling voice came from over the phone.

This was a female disciple. She felt something was wrong with the sensation under her feet, and when she looked down, she saw the distinctive carapace of the Rainbow-tipped Scorpion.
