#674 - Go to the final showdown
Jun Wuxie and Ling Qingyu departed to find Ji Yinlan and the others.
At that moment, Jun Wuxie felt something strange in the palm of his hand. He opened his palm and saw mysterious runes lighting up.
These runes were shared with them by the elders of the Eternal Ancient Academy when they entered, to guide them when returning to the outside world.
But now, another mysterious power flowed over these runes, forming a route map in his palm, along with a pointer-like mark, seemingly guiding him in a direction.
He carefully felt this mysterious power and discovered that it seemed to come from some kind of power of order.
He couldn't help but look at the sky, feeling in his heart as if the order of this world was guiding outsiders to a designated location.
“Could the destination be that place of final battle?”
Jun Wuxie pondered for a moment. Every person who came here to train would eventually go to a certain place for a final showdown. The victor would receive a reward and obtain an opportunity.
“Let's reunite with Yinlan and the others first!”
He shared the situation with Ling Qingyu, and they quickened their pace.
In the mountains hundreds of thousands of miles away, they saw Ji Yinlan, Yan Qingcheng, Mu Yunxi, and Yan Ruyu.
Seeing Jun Wuxie, the hearts that had been hanging in their throats finally settled completely.
Although they believed in his abilities, being in a place like the Han Clan, they were always worried. Now that he had returned unharmed, nothing could make them feel more gratified.
“Are you not injured?”
Ji Yinlan, Yan Qingcheng, and Mu Yunxi all stepped forward to carefully examine him.
“Don't worry, he not only wasn't injured, but he also almost emptied the Han Clan's treasure vault. The gains are beyond your imagination,”
Ling Qingyu said with a light smile. Speaking of this, she felt a little excited.
Although she had no intention of sharing the spoils, she still felt excited when she thought of the scene of facing a massive amount of resources at that time.
Those resources were useless to her. She was just happy for this scoundrel. For cultivators in the lower realms, that was an unimaginable wealth of resources.
“Little rascal, you really emptied the Han Clan's treasure vault?” Yan Qingcheng's purple, alluring eyes sparkled with excitement. “What resources did you get? Show us quickly!”
Ji Yinlan and Mu Yunxi also looked at him with anticipation, their beautiful eyes fixed on him without blinking.
Yan Ruyu was the same, also walking up, waiting to see what he had gained this time.
With a wave of his hand, two large treasure chests appeared out of thin air.
Opening the chest lids, the light was dazzling.
Inside was a box of jade-like materials that shimmered with starlight, as if condensed stars were dotted within, making one's eyes blur.
“This is Star Jade, a material infinitely close to the Saint grade?”
Yan Qingcheng exclaimed, stroking the Star Jade with her slender hand. The slightly cool feeling was very smooth, and one could feel the power of stars contained within.
“So many top-tier materials…”
Mu Yunxi and Yan Ruyu stared blankly at the jade in the box, the shimmering starlight too dazzling.
“Is that all?” Jun Wuxie smiled and said, “Besides Star Jade, there are other materials infinitely close to the Saint grade, totaling more than ten thousand boxes.”
“H-How many boxes?”
Yan Qingcheng, Mu Yunxi, and Yan Ruyu couldn't believe their ears, suspecting they had misheard, and stared at him in stunned silence.
“You didn't mishear, more than ten thousand boxes,”
Jun Wuxie said with a smile, giving a definite answer.
“Wow, we're really rich!”
Even Mu Yunxi, who was usually gentle and quiet, lost her composure at this moment, exclaiming excitedly, covering her mouth with her hands.
Yan Qingcheng and Yan Ruyu were the same, covering their mouths with their hands, their excitement overflowing.
“Ahem, there's also this.”
Seeing their shocked and excited expressions, Jun Wuxie was also very happy in his heart, and opened the second treasure chest.
A crimson, blood-like light bloomed, and a fragrance assailed the senses, with medicinal scents permeating the air.
“This is… Crimson Jade Ginseng?”
Yan Qingcheng, after all, was once the head of a Dominator-level force, and naturally had a wide range of knowledge. She recognized the rare spiritual essence in the box at a glance.
“Heavens, Crimson Jade Ginseng, isn't that a near-Saint grade treasure? There's a whole box full of it, how many plants must there be here…”
Yan Ruyu was stunned. Mu Yunxi beside her was so excited that a blush appeared on her ice-like skin.
Crimson Jade Ginseng, shaped like ginseng, but different in that it was crimson and crystalline, the ginseng body radiating a jade-like luster, looking very extraordinary.
“Here, you guys take it and eat it like snacks.”
Jun Wuxie casually grabbed several handfuls, giving Ling Qingyu, Ji Yinlan, Mu Yunxi, and Yan Ruyu each a handful, not caring how many plants there were.
Yan Qingcheng: …
Eat it like snacks?
Who in the world could be more extravagant than her man?
Using near-Saint grade precious jade ginseng as snacks, if this behavior were known to the cultivators of the world, they would probably be envious and jealous to the point of vomiting blood.
“There's also this, Millennium Vermillion Fruit, you guys take it, it should taste better than Crimson Jade Ginseng.”
He conjured a pile of red fruits, as big as oranges, crystalline and translucent, exuding a tempting fruity fragrance, making people drool.
He gave Ling Qingyu, Ji Yinlan, Mu Yunxi, and Yan Ruyu more than a dozen each, saying, “Try it and see what it tastes like.”
Yan Ruyu couldn't help but take a bite first. The rich essence dissolved, causing every pore on her body to open up, giving her a feeling of ascending on the spot.
The flesh was crisp, the juice was sweet, and the whole mouth was filled with fragrance and aroma, making it irresistible.
“How is it, is it delicious, how's the taste?”
“Mm-hmm!” Yan Ruyu could no longer maintain her usual demeanor, nodding repeatedly, “Delicious, too delicious, the taste is too wonderful, crispy and sweet, fragrant and aromatic, and with one bite, I feel like my whole body has become lighter, as if I'm about to ascend!”
“Don't just watch, try it together. These ginsengs and fruits will be used as daily snacks from now on, don't save them for me. We lack everything now, except for rare treasures, so eat your fill!”
Pfft!
Yan Qingcheng and the others were amused, and slapped him on the shoulder, scolding, “Do you think we're pigs?”
“Wuxie, how much of these rare fruits and treasures did you get?”
Even Ji Yinlan couldn't remain calm. Although her previous life's realm was extremely high, this life was only a Half-Sage after all.
She mainly used combat to release the power of her Dao Fruit to improve her realm, but with abundant resources, she could consume rare resources to cultivate, which could still increase her cultivation speed.
“Not much, just over ten thousand boxes.”
Instantly, Ji Yinlan, Yan Qingcheng, Mu Yunxi, and Yan Ruyu looked at him with blank expressions.
More than ten thousand boxes!
More than ten thousand boxes of materials infinitely close to the Saint grade, and even more than ten thousand boxes of rare fruits and treasures!
This number was too scary, they wouldn't even dare to imagine it in their dreams!
How many rare fruits and treasures did all the geniuses of the world obtain in an era?
Now, they alone possessed more than ten thousand boxes!
This treasure chest was not small, as big as a square table. Similar to the Millennium Vermillion Fruit, one treasure chest was estimated to have more than a thousand pieces…
“The Han Clan is really a wealth-scattering benefactor,” Ji Yinlan couldn't help but marvel, saying, “I really have to thank them for seizing the Harmonious Dao Flower and trapping me in Saint Interruption Mountain, otherwise it wouldn't have angered you, and we wouldn't have obtained so many massive resources.”
Jun Wuxie smiled and said, “These are the total resources accumulated by the Han Clan since the end of the Ancient Chaos Era. They dominate this broken world, control the entire Saint Interruption Mountain, and have accumulated so much over generations, after one or two tens of millions of years. Thinking about it carefully, it's not that much.”
“Little rascal, with so many resources, how do you plan to use them?”
Yan Qingcheng began to think about what to do with the excess resources besides using them themselves.
“Cultivate the young disciples of the sect, and then form a vanguard legion for the imperial dynasty. When the time comes, let Lingfei and Keqing arrange the details. It's enough for us to keep ten or so boxes on ourselves.”
“Master, I don't want to work hard anymore…”
Yan Ruyu said half-jokingly, half-seriously.
“Okay, do you want to join the Immortal Execution Sword Sect? Our sect master is right here~”
Yan Qingcheng winked at her.
Yan Ruyu looked at Jun Wuxie, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when she thought of the past.
“Of course, you can join my Immortal Execution Sword Sect if you decide to, after all, you are Qingcheng's disciple, so I naturally won't object.”
Jun Wuxie's voice was calm, but he was also releasing a message, which was that I'm accepting you because of your relationship with Yan Qingcheng, there's no other meaning.
Yan Ruyu's red lips trembled, wanting to say something but stopping, and finally nodded, saying nothing.
She didn't know what to say. Listening to Jun Wuxie's words, she couldn't help but feel like she was being disliked.
Just because she was the master's disciple, this man took her in out of consideration for the master's face, there was no other reason.
Her small pride in her heart was hit.
No matter what, she was considered relatively outstanding among her generation. Putting aside the master's relationship, couldn't he consider her talent?
Although she knew that her talent was completely different from the man in front of her, like fireflies compared to the bright moon.
“Did you guys get any guidance from the order?”
Jun Wuxie stretched out his palm, displaying the rune lines that lit up on it.
Ji Yinlan, Yan Qingcheng, Mu Yunxi, and Yan Ruyu all stretched out their hands, with an identical rune line in their palms.
“It seems there won't be any mistakes, it should be guiding us to the place of the final battle. Perhaps Lilia and Mu Yuning are there.”
Jun Wuxie turned over and rode on Lan Lan's back, saying, “Everyone, come up.”
Yan Qingcheng looked at the position in front of him, and finally pushed Ji Yinlan, giving her the position.
Ji Yinlan smiled and shook her head, giving the position to Mu Yunxi instead.
Mu Yunxi's face was slightly flushed as she landed in front of Jun Wuxie.
She naturally didn't want to be coy. Among these women, Yan Qingcheng had already shared marital intimacy with him. Some time ago, Ji Yinlan had also sat in front of him. Only she, since their first encounter, had not enjoyed this kind of warmth.
The other women then sat behind them in order.
Jun Wuxie pointed Bluey in the direction, and it sped off.
Mu Yunxi leaned her body against his embrace, her hands holding the hands that encircled her waist, tightly gripping the hands pressed against her lower abdomen.
The journey ahead was long and arduous, traversing countless high mountains and crossing numerous plains.
The next day, they saw a dazzling light in the extremely distant sky. Runes and array diagrams floated in the air, particularly bright and eye-catching.
At this moment, Jun Wuxie felt the mysterious power in his palm throb.
"It seems that the final battleground is there. Judging by the distance, I'm afraid we still have about two days' journey. Bluey, step on it."
He patted Bluey's head, and Bluey let out a cry, rushing away like lightning.
