Xiao Chen turned his head to look at the other areas that had not been cut. He discovered that there should have been all sorts of natural treasures growing there, but at this moment, it looked like they had been forcefully eaten by some kind of animal. There were even many bumpy teeth marks on them.
After looking around, Xiao Chen judged from the traces left behind that it should not have been caused by other Spirit Beasts. Instead, it seemed more like it was man-made. However, could there be someone like the Baize Spirit Beast in the Jadegreen Demonic Valley? Not only was it unafraid of the poisonous gas, but it could also feed on natural treasures?
Baize finally noticed the abnormality and stuttered, "Xiao Chen, I really didn't lie to you. There … there were indeed many Purple Mist Lotuses here before! But … it seems that they had been picked before we came. Look, some of the roots are still steaming. I guess the person who came to pick them has just left! "
At this moment, Baize was standing at the edge of the terraced field where the Purple Mist Lotuses used to grow. The roots of the Purple Mist Lotuses were very neat and smooth as if they had been cut by a knife. If they had been eaten by a spirit beast, the cut would definitely not be so neat!
What made Baize most depressed was that it would be fine if the person only picked the Purple Mist Lotuses, but why did he take away the other treasures as well? Wasn't he too greedy? Wasn't he trying to cheat me?
"Xiao Chen, I think this big horse does have a point!" Nie Xiaoyu tugged at the corner of Xiao Chen's clothes and said softly, "Why don't we hurry up and follow the marks? Maybe we can catch up with the person who picked the herbs? We can talk to him and maybe he will agree to share some with us. That way, when we go back, we can exchange for Miss Cheng Mengying! "
Nie Xiaoyu naively thought that as long as she could bring back the Purple Mist Lotuses and give them to the second-in-charge, she could exchange for Cheng Mengying smoothly. In this way, Xiao Chen wouldn't have to risk his life to fight those people!
"What big horse?! I'm a spirit beast! A high-level spirit beast who cultivates immortality! What you're doing is an insult to my character! " Bai Ze immediately protested sternly. It was usually annoyed by strange people comparing it to a horse. How could that be the same thing? How could those lowly domestic animals compare to a high-grade spirit beast like him?
"Aren't you just a grass mud horse? What's there to explain? Hurry up and chase in the direction of the Purple Mist Nefarious Lotus. What's the point of talking so much?! Are you looking for a beating? " Xiao Chen hugged Nie Xiaoyu and leaped onto the Baize spirit beast's back. He then slapped the spirit beast's head.
"Oh … Okay, okay, okay. I'll chase after him. Let's talk things out. Why do we have to resort to violence?" The Baize spirit beast grunted from the beating. It was so angry that it gritted its teeth, but it could only swallow its anger. As it sped along the main road, it carefully stared at the almost undetectable messy marks on the grassland. It was afraid that it would accidentally go the wrong way and be beaten up again.
Sitting on the back of the Baize spirit beast, Xiao Chen's expression was a little solemn. A cloud of doubt appeared in his heart.
All of this was too strange. Apart from him and Nie Xiaoyu, as well as some special spirit beasts that could survive in the Dark Green Demonic Valley, theoretically, no one else should be able to resist the poisonous fog of the Dark Green Demonic Valley. Yet, someone could come in and harvest all the Purple Mist Nefarious Lotuses before him!
It seemed that the people of the cultivation world could not be underestimated. Although Elder Nangong said that the Dark Green Demonic Valley was so terrifying, there were still people who could escape unscathed.
There was another point of doubt that had been lingering in Xiao Chen's heart. Was the person who harvested the Purple Mist Nefarious Lotuses the same person as the person who harvested the other treasures of heaven and earth?
If that was the case, why did that person harvest the Purple Mist Nefarious Lotuses in batches, but use such a rough method to obtain the other treasures of heaven and earth?
If there really were two people and they didn't know each other, then which sects did they belong to? Did they meet each other before? But there were no signs of fighting in the terraced fields!
Most importantly, what was the purpose of the person who needed the Purple Mist Nefarious Lotuses? Could it be that there was someone else in the cultivation world who knew how to reconstruct the body other than the Elder Heaven Ancestor?
Outside the Teleportation Formation in the Dark Green Demonic Valley, the leaders of the two forces were still standing on opposite sides of the lake. They were confronting each other with their auras. They were each accompanied by a few trusted followers, who were also glaring at each other with hostility. They were in a state of mutual hostility.
Not far behind them, the disciples of their respective sects were not affected by the auras of the two sides at all. They were still immersed in their construction, and the structure of the houses was gradually taking shape.
"Great Sect Leader Fu, what a coincidence that we actually met here!" The Great Leader finally could not hold back and spoke first.
Fu Chenghao casually glanced at the Great Leader, as if he was slightly disdainful of him. He did not reply, and only snorted coldly.
The Great Leader smiled faintly. He was not offended by Fu Chenghao's disdain. He still said unhurriedly, "But as far as I know, this doesn't seem to be the territory of your Huan Chen Pavilion, right? You brought so many subordinates with you today. If you came here to play, it's barely passable. But you're wantonly destroying the natural vegetation here. Isn't it a little inappropriate? "
"Humph! Don't talk nonsense with me. I think you should be very clear in your heart why I'm here! " Fu Chenghao said expressionlessly. The breeze on the lake blew through his white hair, revealing a pair of gloomy and indifferent eyes.
"I'm really not very clear about this. It seems that your Huan Chen Pavilion seems to have the idea of snatching territory!" The Great Leader's expression did not change. He casually asked, "Could it be that as the number one sect in the cultivation world, you're interested in a mere few acres of land?"
"Stop putting on an act!" Fu Chenghao ridiculed in a lukewarm tone, "Since the Purple Mist Evil Lotus grows in the Dark Green Demonic Valley, naturally, whoever gets there first gets it. Do you think you're the only one who would send people to collect it?"
The Great Leader was slightly stunned. Several thoughts flashed through his mind quickly. Is the Huan Chen Pavilion really looking for the Purple Mist Lotus? Where did they find suitable people? Haven't we already taken down Tang Tang, whom the Huan Chen Pavilion had their eyes on before? Could it be that they have more channels than us?
The Great Leader had always believed that he was the only one who possessed the richest information channels and connections in the Immortal Cultivation World. Therefore, even though the Huanchen Pavilion was the number one sect in the Immortal Cultivation World, he still looked down on them.
