Chapter 906: Chapter 906: Heavenly Extreme Spiritual Liquid and Five-Colored Soul Chasing Nails
"Tianxing, let’s collect those Heavenly Star Flowers first before anything else."
A short moment later, as Zhu Fei felt his state was somewhat restored, he said directly to Chen Tianxing.
"Alright."
Chen Tianxing nodded. Although she was quite curious about Zhu Fei’s method of capturing the one-eyed flood dragon, she was not foolish and could naturally tell that Zhu Fei didn’t wish to elaborate on this matter, so she refrained from asking further questions.
At this point, the two divided the ten Heavenly Star Flowers equally between them.
Just as Zhu Fei was about to leave this place with Chen Tianxing, Chen Tianxing suddenly stopped him, with a hint of contemplation emerging in her eyes.
"Hmm, Tianxing, what is it? Is there a problem?"
Seeing Chen Tianxing’s demeanor, Zhu Fei couldn’t help but be slightly puzzled at first; he quickly inquired.
"Zhu Fei, do you think there might be any treasure we’ve missed in this place?"
"Treasures we’ve missed? Tianxing, are you implying...?"
"Yes, exactly." Chen Tianxing nodded, continuing, "I was just thinking, since there’s a one-eyed flood dragon guarding this place, and before we arrived, Shi Fengyang seemed to have been battling with it underground, might it be possible that underground there is..."
As she spoke, Chen Tianxing paused, directing her gaze towards the depths of the gorge.
Seeing this scene, a golden light flashed in Zhu Fei’s eyes. Without further hesitation, after saying "let’s go" to Chen Tianxing, he led the charge towards the depths of the gorge.
...
Upon arriving at the gorge, Zhu Fei and Chen Tianxing hadn’t walked far when they immediately smelled a pure fragrance.
This scent entered their bodies, and the previously somewhat weakened Zhu Fei couldn’t help but feel a boost in spirit, even his Immortal Essence became lively at this moment.
With just a slight circulation of his Cultivation Technique, Zhu Fei quickly restored about ten percent of the Immortal Essence that he had expended earlier using the Yellow Heaven Umbrella.
This...?
A flash of shock flickered through Zhu Fei’s eyes. He exchanged glances with Chen Tianxing, and from each other’s eyes, they both read a trace of surprise and delight.
Continuing forward, they soon found themselves outside a large stalactite cave.
From outside the stalactite cave, they discovered clear signs of a previous battle.
Clearly, the two who fought here were the one-eyed flood dragon and Shi Fengyang.
Although they battled, their attacks were significantly restrained, causing no damage to the nearby stalactite cave.
Hence, it can be basically deduced that the treasure Zhu Fei and Chen Tianxing were looking for should indeed be inside that stalactite cave.
Without hesitation, the two exchanged another glance, flashed, and quickly entered the stalactite cave.
"It’s... Heavenly Extreme Spiritual Liquid!"
As soon as they entered the cave, Zhu Fei and Chen Tianxing immediately saw, not far from them, a pool of blue liquid as large as a bowl accumulating.
From this blue liquid, both Zhu Fei and Chen Tianxing sensed an extremely strong Immortal Spirit Qi.
"Drip—"
At this moment, another drop of blue liquid suddenly dripped down above the Heavenly Extreme Spiritual Liquid.
Zhu Fei and Chen Tianxing immediately looked up, discovering that above the blue liquid, there grew a giant stalactite with a diameter of over ten meters.
However, there was no sign on the stalactite of any imminent dripping of Heavenly Extreme Spiritual Liquid.
Could it be that these precious Heavenly Extreme Spiritual Liquids were formed by this giant stalactite?
Zhu Fei furrowed his brows slightly; he knew that Heavenly Extreme Spiritual Liquid was a naturally occurring Spiritual Object, said to birth only one drop every thousand years.
No matter how severe the injuries a cultivator sustains, consuming even a single drop can restore them to their best condition in the shortest possible time, making it one of the world’s most precious elixirs for healing injuries.
No wonder just sniffing a trace of the Heavenly Extreme Spiritual Liquid’s fragrance before entering allowed his depleted Immortal Essence to recover. Judging by the current amount of Heavenly Extreme Spiritual Liquid, it must be no less than a hundred drops.
Thinking about the value of this Heavenly Extreme Spiritual Liquid, Zhu Fei couldn’t suppress a surge of excitement in his heart.
"Hm? Tianxing, what’s wrong? Is something the matter?"
While lost in thought, Zhu Fei suddenly felt Chen Tianxing tug at his arm, prompting him to look at her in puzzlement.
"Zhu... Zhu Fei, look over there."
Chen Tianxing refrained from answering immediately, instead of pointing her finger toward a rocky wall in front of them.
The lighting on that rocky wall was dim, and there seemed to be something blocking Divine Sense, so initially, neither Zhu Fei nor Chen Tianxing noticed anything unusual about the rocky wall.
At this moment, following the direction of Chen Tianxing’s finger, what Zhu Fei saw made his pupils contract sharply.
Because on that rocky wall, Zhu Fei actually saw a person! A person nailed to the rocky wall!
What? No, it can’t be!
Suddenly, Zhu Fei’s eyes sharply focused, as he saw there were five nails of different colors inserted into the person’s body, pinning their limbs and head securely to the rocky wall.
"Hehehe... Finally noticed me, have you?"
At that moment, the originally lifeless person unexpectedly let out a series of hoarse laughs, causing chills to run down Zhu Fei and Chen Tianxing’s spines.
"Who exactly are you?"
Zhu Fei took a deep breath, scanning the nailed person with sharp eyes.
"Young ones, don’t worry, I pose no threat to you. Have you ever heard of the Five-Colored Soul Chasing Nails?"
"Five-Colored Soul Chasing Nails? Are you referring to the Magical Treasure specifically used to bind a cultivator’s Primordial Spirit and body?"
Cheng Tianxing exclaimed in surprise upon hearing the person’s words.
"Hm? Tianxing, what is it? Do you know something about these so-called Five-Colored Soul Chasing Nails?"
A glimmer flashed in Zhu Fei’s eyes as he turned to Chen Tianxing for an explanation.
Chen Tianxing nodded, answering, "Yes, I’ve occasionally heard about them. It’s said that those who fall victim to the Five-Colored Soul Chasing Nails cannot move their Primordial Spirit or body, and as time passes, their consciousness fades, leading to eventual demise."
"Hehe, clever girl, you know quite a bit. So, now you can be assured of your safety with me, right? I have a deal to propose; I wonder if you might be interested..."
"We’re not interested in any deal you have, so let’s drop it,"
Without waiting for the man to finish speaking, Zhu Fei directly interrupted him.
Then, turning to Chen Tianxing, Zhu Fei said, "Tianxing, ignore him. Let’s quickly collect this Heavenly Extreme Spiritual Liquid and get out of here immediately."
"Young ones, must you be so hasty with your words? You must have realized that being trapped here for so many years without dying means I possess a certain Cultivation Technique for Divine Sense. Are you interested in that?"
