The Arrogant Immortal-Chapter 76 - Oh Its an Old Acquaintance Again

Mo Chuan asked, “You’re coming from the inner area, do you know what happened?”

Xie Jiuniang understood upon hearing this; he had come specifically to gather information. She omitted the part about stealing the spiritual marrow, but she didn’t hide the rest, “The giant beast is gathering its underlings, clearly intending to start a fight with whatever just woke up.”

“Do you know what that thing is?”

“I don’t,” Xie Jiuniang shook her head.

Mo Chuan took out more than a dozen sound transmission talismans and began sending messages to his acquaintances, concisely informing them of the danger on Giant Beast Desolate Island.

After he sent the last talisman, Xie Jiuniang couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity, “You’re worried for them, so why not team up with them?”

Mo Chuan looked at her for a long moment before replying, “Their lives are not mine to control. I inform them only to fulfill my responsibilities as brother Danfeng.”

“Oh.” Xie Jiuniang seemed to understand, yet not quite.

But that wasn’t important.

Xie Jiuniang looked down again, saying sadly, “Uncle-Master, Tianshui Secret Realm is too dangerous. I’ve been escaping for my life ever since I came in.”

Mo Chuan pointed in a direction, “Fly this way. After leaving the dangerous area, three or four days of flight will bring you to a small island.”

Xie Jiuniang recalled the island marked on the map.

Mo Chuan did not mention if it was dangerous.

Because in the secret realm, danger was everywhere.

After waiting for a while longer, Xie Jiuniang indicated she wanted to leave the dangerous area and asked if Mo Chuan would join her.

Mo Chuan used his sword to leave the boat, which made it look like he wouldn’t be leaving anytime soon.

For the prodigies, wherever there was danger, there they would be.

Xie Jiuniang quickly piloted the flying boat away, and even when she was far off, she looked back and felt relieved, “Thank goodness he didn’t ask for a refund.”

“Master, do you really need to be that stingy? It’s just two medium-grade spirit stones,” Jian Lingyan scoffed at her.

Xie Jiuniang’s mouth twitched, sarcastically retorting, “Hah, I remember when a certain sword would even snatch away a single spirit stone…”

“But now I have spiritual marrow,” the Sword Spirit flaunted.

“When you use it all up, you’ll be penniless again,” Xie Jiuniang pointed out ruthlessly, bringing it back to reality without mercy.

Jian Lingyan deflated, unable to bask in its pride.

After flying for two days, they had strayed far from the territory of the Wilderness Island Behemoth.

Suddenly, Jian Lingyan spoke, “There’s no strong presence of water beasts here, master. Don’t you want to go down and look around?”

Xie Jiuniang had the flying boat stop.

No strong water beasts meant the area wasn’t very valuable, lacking treasures attractive enough for powerful water beasts. However, what water beasts didn’t fancy might still be useful to cultivators.

Sect disciples on training expeditions, out of safety concerns, often chose such areas to land and gather various common resources.

This was probably one of the reasons why it was commonly believed within the Sect that Tianshui Secret Realm wasn’t very dangerous.

Xie Jiuniang controlled the flying boat to descend.

She pulled out a top-quality Water-Repelling Pearl, removed the Seal Spirit Talisman on it, and let the flying boat reach the bottom of the water unimpeded.

Choosing a relatively flat area, Xie Jiuniang retracted the flying boat.

The consumption of the flying boat is quite high, so it’s best to save where we can.

Broken Sword flew out from the contract space and took a lap around, purposely soaking in the water for a bath.

Once it settled in, it didn’t want to leave, saying there was spiritual energy in the water, and it felt comfortable soaking.

Xie Jiuniang now understood, the encouragement for her to dive underwater was because the sword spirit was suffocating, wanting to get out and enjoy the breeze.

To this, she wasn’t bothered at all, taking advantage of the convenience of the Water-Repelling Pearl to search for spirit plants nearby. In just an hour, she reaped a bountiful harvest, with the majority being water elemental spiritual plants—it was a bit common, but the quantity was massive.

“Master, there are humans fighting a few miles away.”

As Broken Sword was enjoying its bath, it whizzed over to Xie Jiuniang’s side.

Xie Jiuniang was indifferent, continuing to dig up a spirit plant, and replied, “This is a secret realm, isn’t it normal for people to fight?”

“Haven’t you thought about what they might be fighting over?” Jian Lingyan felt that this generation’s Child of Destiny was lacking.

Xie Jiuniang put away the spirit plant, uninterestedly saying, “What do their disputes have to do with me?”

“Oh, never mind then. I thought Master might be interested in the Nine Aperture Heart Cleansing Lotus.” Jian Lingyan flew back to the water for its bath.

But a small hand quickly grabbed the sword hilt.

Xie Jiuniang asked, “What did you say? What did you just say?”

“I didn’t say anything?”

“You did, I clearly heard something about a nine-something lotus just now?”

“The Nine Aperture Heart Cleansing Lotus,” Jian Lingyan replied with confusion, “But didn’t Master just say…”

Xie Jiuniang waved Broken Sword, interrupting the sword spirit, and pointed forward, “Let’s go! We’ll go have a look, maybe we can fish in troubled waters.”

The Nine Aperture Heart Cleansing Lotus, a supreme spirit plant with a mild medicinal nature.

How could it not be tempting?

Most people only know about the seven orifices of the body, but in reality, there are nine.

Seven yang orifices and two yin orifices.

When a baby is born, the nine orifices are the purest, but as they age, they gradually become tainted.

The majority of impurities in a cultivator’s body reside in these nine orifices, and the Nine Aperture Heart Cleansing Lotus is miraculous for purifying them.

In the Eastern Region, there is a legend that once a cultivator with a five-element spirit root accidentally consumed a Nine Aperture Heart Cleansing Lotus, resulting in a body so pure, it was known as the Impurity-Free Body, and thenceforth, his cultivation speed was comparable to that of someone with a Heavenly Spiritual Root.

Who would have thought that such a plant would be here?

Xie Jiuniang had Jian Lingyan guide the way and stealthily sneaked over.

When they arrived, the fight was extremely fierce, and the small area propped up by the Water-Repelling Pearl was littered with not a few corpses.

Two groups of people were locked in a dead heat.

At the center of the dispute, there bloomed a nine-colored lotus flower growing on a multicolored giant rock.

The lotus flower had nine petals, each a different color, which was a major characteristic of the Nine Aperture Heart Cleansing Lotus.

Xie Jiuniang exclaimed in surprise, “They are all from the Minghua Sect.”

“Indeed, they first teamed up to eliminate other people, and now they are fighting among themselves for the prize,” Jian Lingyan had been paying attention to the battle all this time.

Xie Jiuniang’s eyes fell on the most fiercely fighting man and woman.

Oh, it’s the old acquaintances again!

Wu Yu and Gongsun Xue, the two well-known prodigies of the Minghua Sect.

Wu Yu, the disciple of Lord Yuanhua and also the junior cultivated with emphasis by the top cultivation aristocratic Wu Family.

And Gongsun Xue, born to the Gongsun aristocratic family, was none other than Gongsun Yu’s talented older sister.

The families behind both of them rose to prominence through the fortunes of the Child of Destiny and have been passed down for over ten thousand years.

In a past life, the unprepared were outmaneuvered.

Some fine items that Xie Jiuniang had obtained ended up in their hands.

As she gazed at the Nine Aperture Heart Cleansing Lotus, Xie Jiuniang’s eyes betrayed an indeterminable intent.

The faint scent of the lotus was extraordinarily alluring.

She wanted it!
