No one knew what kind of spiritual beast this was, but even though it was just a lifeless statue, it still gave off a mighty and domineering feeling. It was so much so that one would unconsciously feel a strong urge to kneel down and submit to it. It was an indescribable and shocking sight.
The king of spirit beasts! He didn't need the ghost to remind himself- the word popped into his head. The king of spirit beasts was born with the power to intimidate all beasts, and other than this one, he couldn't think of any other spirit beast that could be this intimidating with just a statue.
It was unknown what material the statue was made of. It was pitch-black and glowed with a faint light. Furthermore, it did not seem to have been carved before being moved onto the altar. Instead, it seemed as if the stone itself had grown there. It was only later carved into the image of the Spirit Beast King and used to construct this altar.
There was a single horn on the forehead of the king of spirit beasts. A drop of black liquid came out of the tip of the horn and dripped into a small stone pool in front of the statue.
"That's right, this must be the Star Ink Milk. Legend has it that the Star Ink Milk is black!" Everyone was overjoyed and excited. There was no doubt that the black liquid was the Star Ink Milk. At this moment, there was already some in the small stone pool. However, because the color of the Star Ink Milk was too dark, if one didn't squat down to examine it carefully, they wouldn't be able to tell how much there was.
There really was the Star Ink Milk. What Chang Daoping said before was actually true! Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao looked at each other and were both surprised and happy.
Because he had been tricked by Chang Daoping before, it was inevitable that he would be on guard against something like this. Until just now, he was still suspicious of Chang Daoping's true intentions. He didn't think that he would actually see the Star Ink Milk with his own eyes!
Moreover, there should be quite a lot left. Even if he and Huang Xiaotao were last, there should still be some left if everyone only took a small bottle. This was already the most ideal situation they had imagined. This trip to the Auduo Cultivation City ruins was unexpectedly smooth.
As a result, the Star Ink Milk was already within reach. Coupled with the Infant Ginseng and Myriad Crossing Golden Dan Fruit, Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao's harvest from this trip to Lufeng Forest was simply off the charts! At this pace, it was almost as if the three most famous Heavenly Treasures of Lufeng Forest were all taken up in one go!
"Alright, let's follow the order we set earlier. I'll go first. " Chang Daoping's expression quickly returned to normal. He took out the small spirit jade bottle that he had prepared in advance and walked to the edge of the pool first. He began to fill it with the Star Ink Milk.
Even though they were tempted, they still consciously took a few steps back. Since they had discussed this beforehand, unless they were prepared to break the rules, they had to maintain a certain distance when others were retrieving treasures. Otherwise, it would be easy to cause misunderstandings. If they got too close, then once Chang Daoping thought that they had ill intentions, then the situation would go out of control.
Lin Yi didn't move either. He just stared at the small rock pool from afar. Although he couldn't see the Star Ink Milk clearly, if Chang Daoping wanted to do something under his nose, such as secretly filling another bottle with the exact same Spirit Jade Bottle, Chang Daoping wouldn't be able to do anything. Even if he was a Nascent Soul cultivator, he definitely wouldn't be able to escape Lin Yi's perception.
Perhaps it was because he was being too careful, but Chang Dao's movements in collecting the Star Ink Milk were slower than he had expected. However, he didn't make any extra movements. After he was done, he directly got up and walked over. He nodded at Cao Shishi.
As Chang Daoping's Dao companion, Cao Shishi's position in the group was self-evident. She was the second person to collect the Star Ink Milk. She excitedly took out a small spirit jade bottle of the same model and eagerly walked over. After filling the bottle to the brim, she reluctantly walked back, looking back three times with every step.
After Cao Shishi finished, it was Luo Tuoxiang's turn. He had already prepared a Spirit Jade Bottle. He impatiently rushed forward and filled the bottle to the brim.
After that, it was Hu Youli, Fan Dongji, and Fang Miaojin's turn. They had already prepared the same Spirit Jade Bottle and each took a bottle according to the order.
Finally, it was Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao's turn. However, before they went up, Luo Tuoxiang suddenly spoke.
"You two, what bottle are you going to use to fill it? It can't be bigger than ours, right? " Luo Tuoxiang grinned and asked, "Before you take the Star Ink Milk, it's best to take it out for everyone to see. Although you are the last in line, according to the rules, you can only take a small bottle each. I don't need to teach you this, right?"
"That's right. If there's extra after you take it, Brother Chang will decide the rest. No matter how much there is, you can't just take it all in one go, right?" Cao Shishi nodded in agreement. She was afraid that these two annoying country bumpkins would take advantage of her.
Lin Yi glanced at Chang Daoping when he heard this. He found that the corner of this person's mouth curled up playfully, but he didn't have any intention of speaking. It was probably a tacit agreement.
Everyone's concerns couldn't be said to be unreasonable. Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao looked at each other and immediately took out two small Spirit Jade Bottles. As an Alchemist, Lin Yi never lacked such things. Moreover, they were the most common sizes on the market. They were almost exactly the same as the Spirit Jade Bottles that everyone had just used.
Cao Shishi and Luo Tuoxiang were completely speechless. Even if they didn't want Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao to take the Star Ink Milk, before Chang Daoping gave the order, they didn't dare to make their own decisions. What if they overpowered the host and violated Chang Daoping's taboo? With Chang Daoping's usual domineering style, what he hated the most was others making their own decisions!
Lin Yi smiled slightly and then no longer paid attention to these two people. He walked hand in hand with Huang Xiaotao towards the small stone pond. With their relationship, they naturally didn't need to be wary of each other like the others.
Finally being able to obtain the Star Ink Milk, Lin Yi's mood at this moment wasn't as calm as it seemed on the surface. If it was anyone else, they would definitely be excited at this moment. This was human nature. It would be strange if they weren't excited at all.
Walking to the side of the small stone pond, Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao found that the surrounding temperature had suddenly risen by a large margin. It was as if they were being roasted by the hot summer sun. Previously, they didn't feel much from afar, but now that they were closer, this strange heat became very obvious.
However, this scorching heat seemed to be emitted from the statue, and the aura emitted from the stone pool below was the complete opposite. The aura was cool and slightly icy, just like a rare gust of cool wind blowing against one's face in the hot summer, causing one to unconsciously feel relaxed and refreshed.
It really was a good thing! Floating Astronomy.
