Under Miao Yi's occasional sidelong glances, Lie Huan kept his word. As soon as the two of them met, not only did he help Miao Yi, he even gave him the storage ring containing the Supreme Earth Crystal.
The two of them then floated up to the surface and got a good look at the floating piece of land inside the pagoda. It was also the place where the two of them were previously trapped. The mountains and rivers were laid out before them, just like a miniature map. From time to time, dark clouds could be seen flashing with lightning, shrouding the sky above the piece of land.
Miao Yi sighed and said, "I can't believe it. It's such a small place, yet people can't get out no matter how hard they try. I wonder how this transcendent artifact was refined. But then again, that space isn't small either. This is the first time I've seen such a large space inside a transcendent artifact. Yao Lord, have you ever seen a transcendent artifact with a more compressed space than this? "
"I've never seen one before either!" Lie Huan clicked his tongue in wonder and said, "The Exquisite Refinement Sect's reputation as the number one transcendent sect in the cultivation realm isn't just for show. To be able to refine a transcendent artifact to this level, their understanding of space must be incredible. Without a strong understanding of space, it's impossible to refine an artifact like this."
Miao Yi asked, "Yao Lord, you know about this as well?"
Lie Huan chuckled and said, "Don't you know? The reason why Yao cultivators' bodies can change in size is because they have a certain understanding of space. Speaking of which, we Yao cultivators are the progenitors of this kind of spatial transcendent artifact refinement. It's just that we humans have been able to bring it to greater heights. "
Miao Yi nodded. Now that Lie Huan mentioned it, he recalled that Yao Ruoxian had mentioned this before.
Lie Huan raised his hand and pointed upwards. A blue mist was pouring into the floating piece of land from the upper level of the pagoda.
The two of them rose up to the sky. The walls of this level were also filled with crystals of varying sizes. Just as Miao Yi was about to ask what they were, Lie Huan clicked his tongue and said, "Supreme Wood Crystals. They actually managed to gather so many of them. These things are even harder to come by than Supreme Earth Crystals because they are rare to begin with. Among the five elemental crystals, they are the most valuable."
"The most valuable?" Miao Yi's eyes lit up. "Are there a lot of people in the cultivation realm who cultivate wood-type cultivation arts?"
"This has nothing to do with the number of people who cultivate wood-attribute techniques. The key is its usefulness. Planting some flowers and trees could be used to accelerate the growth of flowers and trees. It could also be used to decorate a cave or something. People with money and status were willing to do something extravagant. Those who had the means were all willing to keep some on hand, so this item sold well. However, it was a pity that this item could only be found by chance and not sought after. Who would have thought that the Exquisite Refinement Sect would collect so many of them? No, the Exquisite Refinement Sect did not have the strength to do so. Feng Beichen must be the one who got them. "Lie Huan snickered wickedly." Since they've delivered themselves to my doorstep, how could I miss this chance! Niu Er, do you have any objections? "
Miao Yi immediately nodded. "Good, good, good!"
He was already very satisfied that she was willing to share half with him. Otherwise, if she forcefully took the majority or refused to give it to him, he wouldn't be able to do anything because he wouldn't be able to win against her.
Since they had decided to do it, the two of them would not hold back. Then, he grabbed the wall and scratched at it.
When they arrived at the upper level, which was filled with red mist, Miao Yi saw that the wall was once again filled with crystals. Even without Lie Huan telling him, Miao Yi knew that these were Supreme Fire Crystals.
"You also cultivate a fire-attribute cultivation art. I have plenty of these Supreme Fire Crystals, so I'm not in need of them. You can have it easy." Lie Huan waved his hand, looking as though he wanted to take all of them. He even helped Miao Yi dig at the wall.
As Miao Yi dug, he thought to himself, 'Of course you don't care. Your entire palace is made out of Supreme Fire Crystals. You can easily tear down any other house and it would cost more than this. '
After they were done with this floor, the two of them flew up to the next floor. This floor was filled with black mist. The temperature plummeted. Miao Yi recognized the crystals embedded in the wall. They were Ice Souls, or Supreme Water Crystals.
Miao Yi cultivated a fire-attribute cultivation art, so he had seen the red mist that seeped out of Supreme Fire Crystals before. However, he didn't expect the water element to seep out of Supreme Water Crystals to be black in color.
"Same rule?" Lie Huan turned around and asked.
Obviously, he meant that they would share the same rule. Miao Yi nodded without any objections. He immediately went over and started digging at his own half.
Once the two of them were done with the fifth floor, they ran up to the foggy sixth floor.
"These should be Supreme Metal Crystals, right?" Miao Yi asked as he pointed at the crystals embedded in the wall.
Lie Huan nodded, then looked down and said, "I've gathered all five Supreme Elemental Crystals. So there's a Five Elemental Array inside. Feng Beichen really went all out just to refine this transcendent artifact! It's a pity that the two of us can't take this pagoda away. Ugh … "
When he turned around, he saw that Miao Yi was already frantically digging at the wall. Not wanting to be outdone, Lie Huan hurriedly followed suit. No matter how many books Feng Beichen had spent, he had to get his hands on them first. This was a fortune that would make one's hair stand on end. It would be a waste not to take it.
Once they were done, the two of them stared at each other, then suddenly let out a sinister laugh. They were laughing so hard that they were bursting with joy. How many years would they be able to live off of this pagoda just by messing around?! Miao Yi cupped his fists and said, "Congratulations on getting rich!"
Lie Huan cupped his fists and said, "Same to you!" Putting down his hands, Lie Huan reminded, "Niu Er, I'm telling you. These things have to be kept in check before you release them. If you release too much of them, they'll immediately become worthless. Do you understand?"
"I understand, I understand!" Miao Yi grinned.
"Also, don't reveal your wealth. You can't tell anyone about this no matter what. Do you understand? This isn't a small sum of money. This is the entire fortune of the Dao Sage, Feng Beichen. Anyone would be jealous of it. Not everyone is as generous as me! "
"I understand, I understand!" Miao Yi continued to grin, thinking, 'If it weren't for the fact that you don't know what kind of relationship I have with Fu Qing, you probably wouldn't be this generous, would you? It's entirely possible that you're trying to take advantage of me. '
Lie Huan looked around and said, "Right now, the most important thing is to bring these things out. If we can't bring them out, then it'll be a lie to say that we're trapped inside. Strange. We've already swept through the Five Supreme Elemental Crystals, so why hasn't the Exquisite Pagoda been destroyed yet? Could it be that the Five Supreme Elemental Crystals aren't the core of the formation? "
"There's a change below!" Miao Yi pointed to the floating continent below. The two of them descended together, only to see that the dark clouds that covered the sky above the continent had disappeared without a trace.
Meanwhile, outside the Exquisite Pagoda, the third place had already been decided. The five Basic Immortal Pills had already been claimed, and the battle for the second place was now in full swing.
Controlling the Exquisite Pagoda, Miao Junyi had a grim expression on her face.
Beside her, Mo Wen secretly transmitted his voice over, "Still no reaction?"
Miao Junyi replied, "No. I still can't sense any transcendence energy fluctuations from the battle."
Mo Wen exclaimed, "That's impossible! Don't tell me he's dead? Let me ask. "
Miao Junyi invoked her arts and pointed at the Exquisite Pagoda. The pagoda radiated with a purple radiance, and Mo Wen loudly said, "Yao Lord, how's the transcendent artifact refined by our sect?"
Her voice immediately attracted the attention of everyone on the various mountains.
Inside the pagoda, Miao Yi and Lie Huan both raised their heads and saw a beam of light shining down from the top of the pagoda onto the shrunken floating continent. Clearly, that beam of light was used to communicate with the outside world through voice transmissions. Lie Huan flew over and stood under the beam of light, then loudly replied, "Nothing much. I'm currently taking a dump in there, and no one is spying on me. It's a good place to relieve myself! "
When the Yao Lords outside heard this, they immediately burst into laughter. Many of them couldn't help but laugh as well.
Behind the veil, Feng Beichen remained expressionless. He swept his cold gaze across everyone on the mountain top and sneered inwardly, 'Let's see how long you can laugh. I'll make you cry later.'
Mo Wen's expression darkened, and he had his wife cut off the call. He transmitted his voice over, "Immediately activate the Five Elements Formation. Let's see if he surrenders or not!"
Miao Junyi muttered, "I don't think that's appropriate. If we kill them, the others won't dare to go in. I'm afraid they'll ruin Master's plans."
"You've tried going in as well. It's not that easy for a Golden Lotus cultivator to get into trouble. If we don't let them suffer a little, why would the others go in if even Lie Huan can't handle them?" Mo Wen retorted.
Miao Junyi thought about it and agreed. She quickly flicked her sleeves. She invoked her arts to control the pagoda.
The representatives of the various nations watched as the seven levels of the floating Exquisite Pagoda began to rotate, especially the five levels in the middle. They began to rotate at high speeds.
Miao Yi and Lie Huan could naturally see it from inside the pagoda. It was easier to see it from the inside as the levels buzzed back and forth.
After being on guard for a while, the two of them didn't sense any danger. They then stared at the shrunken floating landmass and observed it carefully. However, they didn't notice any changes on the floating landmass.
"What the hell? Are you trying to scare us? "Miao Yi turned around and said," Yao Lord, your cultivation is higher. Why don't you go back inside and take a look? "
"There must be something wrong with my brain. What if I'm trapped inside again? Do you think I'll be able to dig my way out by myself? "Lie Huan observed his surroundings, clearly trying to figure out how to break out of this pagoda.
However, Miao Yi advised, "Actually, I think the two of us should go back together."
Lie Huan shot him a sidelong glance. "What do you mean?"
Miao Yi said, "Yao Lord, it's like this. Think about it! We've stolen so many of Feng Beichen's items. It's not a small sum of money. What if Feng Beichen sets his sights on such a huge fortune? I'm afraid things won't go well for us. Why don't we just go back inside and admit defeat? That way, we'll be able to leave without a hitch. We won't even have to break this bullsh * t pagoda. We don't want the reputation of winning either. It's more worth it to sneak in and obtain something substantial. Don't you think so? I'm sure we won't be the only ones here for the Treasure Appraisal Convention. When the time comes, Feng Beichen won't even know who stole all these items. Don't you think so? "
Lie Huan chuckled, "Brat, you're really smart. What a good plan!" Even though he was praising Lie Huan, his expression instantly changed to one of ferocity. "My Sea of Constellations Yao Race has already surrendered once. We're already living with our tails between our legs. If we surrender again, how will we be able to face anyone? How will I, Lie Huan, be able to face my brothers after I leave this place?! I swear I won't leave until I break this Exquisite Pagoda! "
"..." Miao Yi was speechless. He waved his hand and said, "Then I'll go back and surrender. You can continue breaking your pagoda! But let me make this clear first. Once I leave this place, the theft of the Five Level Crystals will have nothing to do with me. When the time comes, you will have to bear the responsibility alone! "
Lie Huan scoffed disdainfully, "Don't worry. I'm a Golden Lotus cultivator. Why would I drag a Red Lotus cultivator like you down with me? Have a safe trip. I won't be seeing you out! "
'You're crazy! ' Miao Yi immediately floated to the bottom of that piece of land. He opened his transcendence vision and searched for the hole he dug earlier, preparing to go back inside and surrender.
After much difficulty, he finally locked onto the location. He rubbed his chin and hesitated for a moment. In the end, he decided to go back inside and hover in front of Lie Huan.
Lie Huan narrowed his eyes and asked, "Why aren't you leaving yet?"
Miao Yi sighed and said, "After all, we've been through thick and thin together for so long. If I leave you here alone … I'll feel bad if something happens to you. Forget it. I'll go all out this time. I'll accompany you until the end! I can't watch you risk your life alone! "
Lie Huan's eyes lit up. He slapped Miao Yi's shoulder and laughed heartily, "Niu Er. You're a loyal friend indeed. I'll make you my friend!"
