A reincarnated girl, who begins by possessing a cultivator.

"What? Senior Sister Su, are we just letting them go like this? Won't they go find help?"

Meng Yu became somewhat worried.

"What's there to be afraid of? They attacked us first, so they naturally have to pay a price. As for their helpers, humph! If they dare to come again, I'll make them spit out dozens more low-grade medicinal herbs."

Su Chun looked completely indifferent.

Seizing opportunities always involves taking risks.

Furthermore, Lingyuan Blessed Land is so vast that Su Chun dares to say they'll only search this place briefly. If they don't see them, they definitely won't continue to pester them.

After discussing it, the six of them left the area.

Just as Meng Yu and the others had feared, not long after they left, the man and woman from Bailing Mountain returned with their fellow disciples to seek revenge, but unfortunately, they found nothing.

"What about people?"

The female cultivator from Bailing Mountain looked anxious.

"Is that even a question? They definitely ran away."

Among these people was a cultivator at the thirteenth level of Qi Refining; he should be the leader.

"Senior Brother Wu, shall we continue searching?"

But the leading cultivator rolled his eyes.

"What's the point of looking for them? This Lingyuan Blessed Land is so big, looking for them would be such a waste of time. If we run into other cultivators from the Xuan Yue Sect, we might not be able to get our revenge and we'd end up with a lot of trouble."

So the two who had their medicinal herbs taken by Su Chun had no choice but to give up for the time being.

Soon, half a day had passed, and Su Chun had collected all the materials that Meng Yu and the others needed.

They can find everything they need in the outer areas, where there are many cultivators, most of whom travel in groups, so it is rare to see any deadly battles.

“Junior sisters, I think we should part ways. I’m going to the inner circle to find rare and precious materials to improve my physique and spiritual roots, so I won’t stay on the outer circle.”

Su Chun greeted Meng Yu and the others.

These words stunned Meng Yu and the others.

"Huh? You don't need us anymore? Go to the inner perimeter, it's very dangerous there."

Su Chun shook her head.

"I have the means to protect myself, but if I take you with me, it's hard to say."

Meng Yu and the other four then understood why Su Chun had said she would help them collect materials first.

"Alright, then Senior Sister Su, you need to be careful."

Meng Yu was quite worried about Su Chun.

Su Chun smiled faintly, then summoned her flying artifact and ventured deep into the Lingyuan Blessed Land.

However, not long after Su Chun left, several of the more powerful members of their group also separated from Meng Yu and the others, as they too were heading deeper into the Lingyuan Blessed Land.

In the end, only Meng Yu and Lü Hui remained on the perimeter.

The outer perimeter contains only some low-grade materials, while the inner perimeter contains mid-grade rare and precious materials, and even some other special opportunities.

As Su Chun entered the inner area, she immediately unleashed her peak Foundation Establishment level divine sense to scan her surroundings. With this scan, she detected the auras of many demonic beasts and even saw the corpses of cultivators.

This already demonstrates the level of danger within the inner perimeter.

The inner area has even denser vegetation, consisting entirely of giant trees, with any one of them reaching twenty or thirty meters in height.

This terrain is ideal for monsters to inhabit and for other cultivators to set up ambushes.

Su Chun followed the route that Ding Yuqin remembered.

With her divine sense, she could completely avoid most dangers.

But upon arriving at the location of the Cleansing Spring from his memory, he was forced to stop.

About a hundred meters ahead, there is a pool of water radiating a rich spiritual energy. Various kinds of medicinal herbs grow around the pool, and each of them is old, with some being over three hundred years old.

But why did Su Chun stop a hundred meters away?

This is because this place is rather strange. Why is a place like the Spirit Cleansing Spring so quiet? There isn't even a single demonic beast in sight.

Chapter 20 A Perilous Situation

This area was deathly silent, making people afraid to approach it.

The Cleansing Liquid in the Cleansing Spring is said to be able to refine the quality of spiritual roots, but the probability is extremely low. For most people, it only makes their spiritual roots a little purer. The probability of using the Cleansing Liquid to refine the five-attribute spiritual roots into better ones is no less than a pie falling from the sky.

But for Su Chun, even if there's only a one in ten thousand chance, she has to try to find out the outcome.

Therefore, she was determined to obtain the Cleansing Elixir, even if there were great dangers ahead.

While Su Chun was considering whether to enter, other cultivators entered the area first.

"Good timing. Let me see if someone has set up an ambush here."

Su Chun took out a talisman and stuck it on her body. Immediately, her figure blended into the surrounding environment.

Although her divine sense did not detect any other cultivators in this area, there are many ways to conceal one's aura and form, and one should not be too superstitious about everything seen by one's divine sense.

Moreover, he believed that there were definitely other cultivators watching from the surrounding area.

This place is too abnormal; anyone with even a little bit of safety awareness would not dare to venture in.

The cultivator who entered appeared to be a rogue cultivator, and he reached the edge of the Cleansing Spring without any trouble.

No danger was encountered during the trip.

"Hahaha, the Cleansing Spring, and so many 300-year-old medicinal herbs, I'm rich, they're all mine."

The man laughed heartily and began collecting these rare and precious materials.

At the same time, several people suddenly appeared within Su Chun's spiritual sense range. There was more than one person, and all of them had cultivation levels above the tenth level of Qi Refining.

"With so many rare and precious materials, how could we let you take them all by yourself?"

"So there are others like me secretly observing the situation. But is this place really safe?"

Although Su Chun was somewhat anxious, she forced herself to remain calm and continued to observe.

Four more cultivators suddenly appeared around the Spirit Cleansing Spring.

They didn't attack each other because there were enough natural treasures in the area, so there was no need to fight over them.

But just when they completely let their guard down, an accident happened.

The cultivator who entered first suddenly revealed a fierce glint in his eyes and launched an attack on the other three.

He threw out several explosive talismans, catching the three of them off guard.

Although they failed to injure the three, they did make them somewhat flustered.

"Hey, what are you doing? There's so much stuff here, do you really need to steal from us?"

The cultivator who attacked the three revealed a cold smile.

Immediately afterwards, thin steel wires, each the size of a hair, appeared in the air and instantly entangled the three of them.

The three then realized they had been ambushed, but unfortunately, it was too late.

The moment they were entangled in the steel wire, a tall cultivator slowly emerged from the ground, a female cultivator emerged from a tree, and another person seemed to emerge from the void.

As soon as they appeared, they decisively dealt a fatal blow to the three.

The three cultivators were killed on the spot without even a chance to resist.

"As expected, there was an ambush. One was at the thirteenth level of Qi Refining, and three were at the twelfth level of Qi Refining. Loose cultivators? How insidious! Are they specifically hunting down other cultivators?"

The four began cleaning up the battlefield. They skillfully looted all the treasures from the three men, then set their bodies on fire, burning them completely and even erasing any traces on the ground.

Su Chun finally understood why this area was so quiet. It turned out that the monsters in this area had been cleared out by them, and the people who came here had also been dealt with.

The cultivator who had just barged into this place left the area around the spiritual spring again and came outside, wandering around.

This guy was specifically in charge of fishing, deliberately making the cultivators secretly observing nearby lower their guard and think there was no danger inside.

"As expected, there are no fools among cultivators. This method is really insidious. However, for those rogue cultivators, hunting other cultivators is indeed more profitable than collecting the rare and precious materials here."

Hunting other cultivators can yield magical treasures, spirit stones, and pills—cultivation resources that are definitely not among the items to be handed over, making it a sure-fire way to profit.

Apart from the seven sects, all other cultivators will need to open their storage magic treasures when they go out, allowing the experts from the seven sects to take away 30% of the medicinal herbs collected from the blessed land.

Therefore, some people simply don't gather materials first, but instead hunt other cultivators, and then gather some materials when they finally have to go there.

The ingredients in the blessed land all have a special aura, which is different from the medicinal materials outside. They can distinguish them with a glance using their divine sense, unless they are eaten inside.

But Su Chun wasn't willing to wait there any longer; she decided to take the initiative.

"If you want to scheme against me, then I'll catch you off guard."

Su Chun deactivated his invisibility and flew openly to the location of the Spirit Cleansing Spring.

Among these people, there must be cultivators skilled in perception. Invisibility is a concealment technique that is only suitable for a silent state. Once they move, cultivators skilled in perception can easily detect them.

Su Chun arrived at the spiritual spring as quickly as possible, and before the people around her could attack her, she suddenly activated a top-grade offensive magic weapon.

It was a bead filled with purple electricity.

"Purple Thunder Pearl, go."

Su Chun activated the magical artifact, which flew to the top of her head and then released a powerful electric current in all directions.

The electric current was a coverage attack. The cultivators who were hiding around the spiritual springs had no time to react before they were struck by the current, letting out screams and being forced to reveal themselves.

"Ah! Fairy of Xuan Yue Sect, spare me, spare me!"

After the electric shock stopped, the people cried out in pain and immediately begged Su Chun for mercy.

To be honest, if Su Chun hadn't absorbed Ding Yuqin's memories, she might have actually taken pity on them when they begged for mercy.

However, since merging with Ding Yuqin's memories, everything Ding Yuqin experienced is still vivid in her mind. If you let these cultivators with malicious intentions go, it would be like releasing a tiger back into the mountains.

Su Chunxin hardened her heart and increased the intensity, instantly turning the three of them into charred remains.

Although Qi Refining cultivators cannot unleash the full power of top-grade magic weapons, they can unleash 60-70% of their power, which is enough to kill them.

This was Su Chun's first time killing someone, and to be honest, she felt uneasy and guilty.
