Chapter 399: Chapter 226 – We are battling, yet you are digging for Spiritual Medicine_2

“I have no interest in low-handed deeds like attacking people in secret.”

He responded coldly, continuing to watch the blue-green Jiao tree.

The attack just now, like a flash of sword’s light, was extremely fast, vanishing in a flash.

“Was it a dart?”

Xu Yan pondered in his heart.

The young master of the Jade Spirit Sect looked grimly towards another „ pathfinder Martial Artist, ordering, “Go, dig up the blue-green Jiao tree.

“Yes, yes!”

The Martial Artist was trembling in fear, alert, prepared to deal with an attack

at any moment.

The young master of the Jade Spirit Sect’s eyes were locked on Xu Yan.

The same was true for the rest.

They suspected it was Xu Yan who had taken action.

The Martial Artist arrived at the base of the blue-green Jiao tree, glanced sideways at Xu Yan who seemed not to move, sighed with relief, but still dared not let his guard down, carefully prepared to dig the blue-green Jiao tree.

Suddenly, a ray of light flickered.

Thuk!

The Martial Artist was instantly pierced through, fell dead on the spot.

“Who is it, sneaking around and not daring to show themselves?

The young master of the Jade Spirit Sect was furious.

Xu Yan didn’t fight back, which means there’s another powerful opponent.

This time, Xu Yan saw clearly what the flash of light was.

It was a snake!

“A spiritual beast?”

This was his first time seeing a Spiritual Beast, but the snake’s strength surprisingly matched his own!

Especially its speed and stealth abilities.

When it attacked, its whole body was crystal clear, like a slash of a sword, but after the attack, it immediately changed color and blended into the darkness.

The young master of the Jade Spirit Sect, holding his Spirit Sword, stepped toward the blue-green Jiao tree, coldly said, “I would like to see how you will stop me!”

Standing in front of the Jiao tree, he did not stoop to dig, otherwise he would be exposed and put in danger.

“Come here, dig up the tree!”

He turned his head and said to a pathfinder Martial Artist.

“1,1…”

The Martial Artist turned pale and hesitated.

Thuk!

The genius who had invited him suddenly took action, killing him on the spot, and coldly said, “Disobeying the order of the Spirit Sect, deserves to be executed!”

He pointed to another person and said, “You, go dig the tree!

The Martial Artist turned pale and, trembling, approached the blue-green Jiao tree. Seeing the young master of the Jade Spirit Sect standing guard by his side, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He bent down, preparing to dig up the blue-green Jiao tree.

Suddenly, the light flickered again!

The young master of the Jade Spirit Sect was prepared, he flashed his cold eyes and slashed with his sword.

However, the light suddenly took a turn, evading his slash, and with a ‘thuk’, pierced the body of the Martial Artist who was about to dig the tree, disappearing again.

“It’s the spiritual beast clan!”

At this moment the young master of the Jade Spirit Sect shouted sternly.

“How dare this beast be so brazen?”

“Kill this beast first, then negotiate who gets the treasure!”

All geniuses were suddenly outraged.

They all prepared to attack the Spiritual Beast.

“Be careful, this is a fourth-order Spiritual Beast, likely a late-stage fourth­

order spiritual beast.”

Dai Jun spoke solemnly.

A fourth-order Spiritual Beast, equivalent to a Small Celestial in the Divine Soul

Realm of a Martial Artist!

Once these geniuses realized it was a Spiritual Beast, they scattered, with several guarding the entrance to prevent the beast from escaping.

The mausoleum was large, though the beast’s concealment was strong, it was now exposed and could be quickly found and encircled.

Suddenly, the light flickered again. This time, it was not killing someone, but shooting towards a moonlight stone.

Thuk!

That moonlight stone disappeared.

“Stop it quickly!”

All the geniuses were enraged, each taking a shot, but because they were afraid of damaging the treasures in the mausoleum, they all tried to be as restrained as possible to avoid causing a wider impact.

The little snake moved swiftly, avoiding their strikes, flashing around in the mausoleum, and with each flicker, a moonlight stone disappeared.

Gradually, the light in the mausoleum started to dim.

“Die!”

The young master of the Jade Spirit Sect seized the opportunity, fiercely struck out with his sword, and with a bang, the light was flown away.

All the geniuses were attacking-simultaneously towards that light.

At this moment, Xu Yan had reached the blue-green Jiao tree.

He took out a shovel, started digging, and left the geniuses engaged in attacking the little snake.

At this moment, the tomb chamber had darkened, especially near the Azure Serpent Tree. All the prodigies were focusing on the snake, totally ignoring Xu Yan who was extracting the tree.

After extracting the Azure Serpent Tree and sealing it with the Spiritual Medicine, Xu Yan put it into his storage bag.

He had learned the technique of sealing with Spiritual Medicine from Meng Shushu.

Glancing back, he saw that the prodigies were still surrounded and attacking the small snake. Angry shouts were heard, and the snake moved very fast, causing injuries if care was not taken.

And as long as there was an opportunity, a moonstone would disappear. Xu Yan guessed the snake’s intention – once the tomb chamber was completely immersed in darkness, it would be the snake’s hunting time.

After extracting the Azure Serpent Tree, he began to pluck the Dragon Eye

Fruit.

Xu Yan watched the people crouching on the ground, meticulously plucking the Dragon Eye Fruit in silence.

Shen Haizhou looked a little embarrassed.

“This is yours, brother, all yours!”

The harvested Dragon Eye fruit was handed into Xu Yan’s hand, as he slowly retreated by moving his buttocks.

“Pluck together, hurry up.”

Xu Yan said after putting the Dragon Eye Fruit into his storage bag.

The tomb chamber was getting darker and it would be easy for accidents to happen when plucking the Dragon Eye Fruit.

“Yes, yes!”

Shen Haizhou hurriedly nodded his head.

So, the two of them started plucking the Dragon Eye Fruit together. The battle had become more intense, and the tomb chamber was becoming darker.

“Brother, all fruits have been plucked and are here!”

Finally, when the Dragon Eye Fruit had been harvested, Shen Haizhou passed it to Xu Yan.

“I’m not tyrannical, just give me ninety percent of the Dragon Eye Fruit you

have plucked.”

Xu Yan said seriously.

Shen Haizhou cursed inwardly, isn’t this tyrannical?

“Brother, you’re so generous, treating someone you’ve never met before with such kindness. Thank you, thank you very much!”

An expression of gratitude appeared on Shen Haizhou’s face.

Leaving only a few Dragon Eye Fruits, the rest were all put into Xu Yan’s storage bag.

At this moment, the sound of fighting suddenly stopped.

The tomb chamber was very dark now.

Only one huge moonstone remained at the top of the tomb chamber, shedding light to illuminate the inside.

Dai Jun and others were dazed at the moment. While they were fighting the spiritual beast, Xu Yan had been secretly collecting Spiritual Medicine?

And Shen Haizhou, adding shame to his family name as always!

The little snake with blood leaking from its mouth, despite its extreme speed in the battle, managing to evade ninety-nine percent of the attacks, was injured. Right now, its small eyes wide open, white flames surged on its body.

“I will kill you, I will kill you for digging my spiritual medicine!”

Boom!

The little snake instantly transformed into a thirty-foot serpent. Its body was translucent and covered in white flames. It raised its head and glared furiously.

“It’s a Crystal Serpent!”

Shen Haizhou exclaimed in surprise.

Dai Jun and others were also glaring at Xu Yan, “Hand over the spiritual medicine, or don’t blame us for…”

Xu Yan ignored them and looked at the Crystal Serpent in surprise, “It can talk?”

Even Red Cat, a great demon, couldn’t talk.

“Usually, spiritual beasts can’t speak human language, only sixth-grade spiritual beasts can conduct soul communication. However, this Crystal Serpent is special, it can speak human language.

Shen Haizhou explained, while carefully retreating.

“Die!”

The Crystal Serpent was furious. Its body grew larger again and roared down like a giant whip.

Xu Yan was about to make a move, but his expression suddenly changed, and he vanished in a flash. In an instant, he had already changed his position.

Shift and Change Position!

Boom!

The Crystal Serpent’s massive tail fiercely smashed where Xu Yan was standing, shaking the entire tomb chamber. Rubble flew all over the place, and a cloud of black dust rose, filling the tomb chamber.

‘•Don’t think about monopolizing the spiritual medicine, hand it over!”

The young man from the Spirit Sect and others shouted in anger, attacking Xu Yan all together.

Xu Yan’s figure flashed again, instantly changing his position, while the Crystal Serpent attacked again.

A shadow, slinking along the wall of the tomb chamber, shifted slowly. His eyes were fixed on the huge dragon coiled in the center.

Small beads of sweat trickled down from his forehead.

Shen Haizhou swallowed, his heart slightly trembling. In the moment when the Crystal Serpent attacked, he saw the curled up dragon wobble slightly.

Was that the force of a Divine Soul?

Could it be that the Azure Sky Serpent was not dead?

Thinking of this possibility, his legs became a little weak. Taking the chance when the Crystal Serpent and the prodigies were attacking Xu Yan, he slowly moved, not alerting anyone, and quietly stood near the entrance.

However, he didn’t leave immediately.

If he was watching the chaos in the tomb chamber, watching Xu Yan changing positions with his bizarre movement technique, he would be amazed. This brother’s strength was truly powerful.

Whoosh!

Xu Yan changed his position again and came before the coiled dragon, as the fury driven Crystal Serpent strike came down once more.
