Chapter 14191 Another Feast

Ling Xiao seemed to be extending an invitation to the purple-robed elder and the others, or perhaps issuing a command.

The old man in purple robes followed his finger and looked down. When his gaze fell on the phantom of the building, his expression changed completely.

He sensed an ancient, desolate aura emanating from the phantom of the building, an aura that made his very soul tremble. It was like a primordial beast from ancient times, carrying a power capable of destroying the world.

His body trembled involuntarily, and a strong sense of unease welled up inside him.

But his pride as an elder of the Temple of Annihilation wouldn't allow him to back down. He gritted his teeth, forcibly steadied himself, and said coldly, "Playing tricks!"
I'd like to see what this so-called senior is all about!

Having said that, he gripped the magical artifact tightly in his hand, his eyes revealing a firm determination, ready to meet the upcoming challenge.

"Fine! I'd like to see what kind of people could possibly be in this remote and desolate place!" The old man in purple robes had his hair and beard standing on end, his eyes wide with anger, his gaze filled with contempt and disdain, as if this ink-wash world before him was nothing more than an insignificant anthill.

He shouted sharply, his voice booming like a bell, causing the surrounding ink-like mist to churn violently.

Holy light erupted from his body in an instant, transforming into a dazzling protective halo. The halo exuded a sacred and majestic aura, as if it could resist all evil and attacks in the world.

The old man pushed off the ground with both feet, his body shooting out like an arrow, and rushed towards the illusory image of the ancient pagoda.

He was incredibly fast; wherever he went, the ink-like mist was torn apart, leaving a long trail.

The four people behind him looked at each other, their eyes filled with surprise and uncertainty.

They didn't understand why the old man was rushing so eagerly toward the unknown phantom of the ancient tower, but in this unfamiliar ink-wash world, they dared not act alone, so they gritted their teeth and followed closely behind.

Five streaks of light streaked across the sky, like five dazzling shooting stars, tearing through layers of ink-like mist and disappearing into the deeper unknown.

Ling Xiao stood with his hands behind his back, his posture as upright as a pine tree, his eyes calm and deep, quietly waiting for everything that was about to happen.

He already had a plan in mind, and he was not surprised by the upcoming outcome.

At this moment, the ink-like mist around him rippled, as if it were being gently stirred by an invisible hand.

Then, the mist gradually condensed, forming a girl the size of a palm.

The little girl was wearing a dark-colored dress with delicate embroidered patterns, like twinkling stars in the night sky.

She wore her hair in two cute double buns, her hair was jet black and shiny, as smooth as silk.

She blinked her big, dark eyes, which were like two crystal-clear black gems, sparkling with a lively light.

She reached out her little hand and gently tugged at Ling Xiao's sleeve, her voice clear and melodious, tinged with anticipation: "Big brother, they... have good things on them, right?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao's lips twitched slightly, and he thought to himself, "..."

This little fox's obsession with "good things" is practically etched into its very essence.

This little girl is the spirit of this ink-wash world. She is mischievous and playful by nature, and has an almost obsessive desire for the rare and precious treasures of the world.

Since following Ling Xiao, she has often pestered him, hoping to get some fun things from him.

Just then, a sigh filled with endless horror and disbelief seemed to come from the end of time and space.

The sigh was long and deep, carrying a power that pierced the soul, echoing throughout the entire ink painting world.

Everyone who heard this sigh felt as if they had been struck by an invisible force, and a strong sense of unease and fear welled up in their hearts.

"How could such a being... be... left here..." The sigh was filled with doubt and shock, as if the speaker had seen something beyond his comprehension.

The moment the sigh subsided, five figures shot out from that unknown depths as if thrown by an invisible giant hand.

Their bodies traced awkward arcs in the air before crashing heavily in front of Ling Xiao and Hua Ling.

Five bodies lay silently on the ink-wash landscape, and from the outside, they were surprisingly intact.

Their robes were smooth and flat, without a single wrinkle, and even the delicate dark patterns at the hem were clearly visible, as if they had never experienced any battle or hardship, and were not damaged in the slightest.

However, when one's gaze shifts to the space between their brows, a strange and terrifying aura washes over them.

The once radiant holy hall mark, representing powerful cultivation, has now completely dimmed and extinguished, like a extinguished candle, losing all its former glory and majesty.

Their eyes were wide open, frozen in eternal terror and bewilderment. Their empty gaze seemed to tell of the unimaginable and unbelievable horror they had encountered in their final moments.

The breath of life was instantly sucked away as if by an invisible hand, disappearing completely, leaving only these five lifeless shells.

The little fox was originally squatting to the side, curiously examining the five bodies.

When she saw this scene, her small mouth opened slightly, and she let out a small gasp. The sound was clear but trembling, clearly because she was shocked by what she saw.

But then, her big, dark eyes suddenly lit up dramatically, like two bright stars twinkling in the night sky, filled with excitement and anticipation.

She knew all too well that these powerful beings must be hiding many treasures.

Ling Xiao reacted even faster; his eyes were sharp, and he instantly saw through everything.

With a flick of his wrist, he moved with effortless grace, as if he had done something trivial.

In an instant, five ancient-style storage rings, exuding a mysterious aura, detached from the five bodies and landed steadily in his hands.

These five storage rings have a unique design, with exquisite star patterns carved on the ring body and inlaid with dazzling star gemstones that shimmer with a mesmerizing light in the dim light.

Ling Xiao's divine sense, like a nimble tentacle, quickly probed into the storage ring and swept through it.

With that glance, even someone as composed and unperturbed as him, with countless trials and tribulations, couldn't help but smile slightly, the curve of which was filled with uncontrollable joy.

Get rich quickly!

Really getting rich overnight!
The space inside these five storage rings was astonishingly vast, as if they were five independent little worlds.

The first thing that catches the eye is the mountain of spirit crystals, which shimmer with pure and bright spiritual light, like twinkling stars in the night sky, dazzling and radiant.

A rough estimate puts the figure at over 300 million!

The sheer number of them was enough to make anyone dizzy just by looking at them.

Among these low-grade spirit crystals, there were also hundreds of higher-quality "mid-grade spirit crystals".
