Spiritual Spring Water
Nine Desolation Regions.
Heavenly Gu Sacred City.
When Ning Qi arrived, he noticed that half of the cultivators in Heavenly Gu Sacred City seemed to have Soul Devouring Worms in their bodies.
These cultivators' aptitudes and cultivation levels were generally higher. As for the remaining half, they might not have caught the attention of the Soul Devouring Worms, or they might have just arrived at Heavenly Gu Sacred City not long ago.
"Little brother, is this your first time in Heavenly Gu Sacred City?"
A human cultivator walked in front of Ning Qi and said with a smile. This human cultivator's cultivation was quite high. He was already a Four Tribulation Creator, and he would be considered a Perfected Immortal in the Central Continent. He looked to be in his fifties and had a kind expression on his face. Behind him was a group of young human cultivators. Their cultivation levels were different, and their talents were also very different. However, they were all above average. Seeing that the old man was trying to strike up a conversation with Ning Qi, the group of human cultivators showed a hint of fear in their eyes.
"Yes."
Ning Qi nodded with a smile.
The old man's eyes glinted as he said with a smile, "There are many foreign race cultivators in Heaven Gu Sacred City. Human race geniuses like us will easily be targeted by them. May I know why little brother has come to Heaven Gu Sacred City? Perhaps I can help you a little. Hmm, this isn't the place to talk. Why don't you come to my humble abode? These little brothers are the same as you. "
"Sure."
Ning Qi nodded with a smile.
Seeing that Ning Qi agreed, the smile on the old man's face widened, but the group of young cultivators behind him looked at Ning Qi with a trace of hostility. They basically came to Heaven Gu Sacred City alone, and seeing that they could be favored by a Four Tribulation Creator, they were thinking about how to acknowledge him as their master. Naturally, they hoped that there would be as few competitors as possible.
Soon, Ning Qi and the others followed the old man back to his residence. This was an incomparably luxurious house, with groups of maids, including all kinds of races. The young cultivators standing with Ning Qi had never seen such a scene before, and they were immediately shocked. Their eyes revealed a trace of passion, and the Spiritual Qi in this place seemed to be two or three times thicker than the outside world!
"Hehe, little friends, I have a spiritual spring here. I wonder if you're interested in taking a look?"
The old man smiled.
"Senior, the Spirit Qi in this place is incomparably dense. Is it because of this spirit spring?"
A young cultivator's face revealed a look of anticipation. When the others heard this, they were immediately overjoyed. If they could drink a few mouthfuls of this Spirit Spring Water, it would at least be equivalent to taking a few sixth or seventh grade medicinal pills!
"That's right, this spirit spring is in the backyard. This old man will bring you all to have a look."
The old man smiled and nodded. Everyone quickly followed the old man to the backyard. Along the way, they saw many guards whose cultivation bases were much higher than theirs. One of them was incomparably tall, sitting in one of the courtyards cultivating. When they walked past, he would open his eyes and look at them condescendingly.
"It's a Titan Descendant!"
"It seems like this senior is quite powerful in the Heavenly Gu Sacred City. Otherwise, how could he afford to raise a Titan descendant as a guard?"
Everyone looked at each other with different thoughts in their minds. If they could become the subordinates of this old man, their futures would definitely be bright!
With this idea in mind, many young cultivators continued to flatter the old man. The old man smiled and seemed to be very friendly to everyone.
After passing through a few more corridors, the old man's figure suddenly stopped. Everyone looked forward and saw that there was a ten feet wide spiritual spring. The spiritual spring water was constantly gushing out, and the mist was steaming. It was like a paradise on earth. In addition, the Spirit Qi here was even denser, so everyone was subconsciously immersed in it.
Ning Qi looked at the spiritual spring and smiled slightly. His Divine Sense easily broke through the seal on the surface of the spiritual spring. Without the old man noticing, he saw the scene in the depths of the spiritual spring. It was different from the fairyland outside. In the depths of the spiritual spring, there were groups of black insects hugging together. There were thousands of them. These insects seemed to be larvae, and the spiritual spring was their nourishment. At the top of the swarm, there were more than a dozen Soul Devouring Insects that were several times larger than the other insects. They were the size of a fist, and they were buzzing in anticipation, as if waiting for some kind of order!
"Young friends, it is fate that we meet. This old man has nothing to entertain you with, so I will offer you a few mouthfuls of spiritual spring water."
The old man suddenly smiled and clapped his hands. Then, two maidservants walked over with a plate in their hands. There were cups on the plate, and the number was exactly the same as the number of people in Ning Qi's group. The maidservant bent down and scooped some spiritual spring water from the spiritual spring. At this moment, Ning Qi noticed that the Soul Devouring Insects that seemed to have grown up leaped up and merged into the spiritual spring water, becoming transparent. When the maidservant poured the spiritual spring water into the cups, the Soul Devouring Insects were quietly sitting inside. However, it seemed that other than Ning Qi, the other young cultivators did not notice this at all. Instead, they were shocked by the old man's generosity.
"Senior, you are too kind. This spiritual spring water is so precious, how can we enjoy it?"
A young cultivator repeatedly declined. Seeing this, the rest of the cultivators glared at him with dissatisfaction. One of them even couldn't help but take a cup and was about to drink it.
At this moment, a strong wind swept past and directly shattered the cup. The spiritual spring water immediately spilled on the ground, and the moment the transparent Soul Devouring Insects touched the ground, they directly merged into the soil and disappeared without a trace. That cultivator was stunned for a moment and fiercely looked at Ning Qi. His eyes were like a volcano that was about to erupt, filled with anger!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. The rest of the people also looked at Ning Qi with a trace of anger in their eyes. How could this guy be so rude? He actually dared to break the cup containing the spiritual spring water? Such precious spiritual spring water, wasn't it directly wasted?
"What are you doing!"
That cultivator was furious. If it weren't for the old man's presence, he would have already attacked Ning Qi.
A sharp light flashed in the old man's eyes. He stared at Ning Qi and gestured to the two maidservants who were about to attack.
He wanted to know why Ning Qi broke the spiritual spring water.
"If you drink this cup of water, you won't be you anymore. Why aren't you thanking me?"
Ning Qi smiled.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Why can't I understand? Are you crazy? This is spiritual spring water. With such spiritual energy, drinking a cup is equivalent to drinking several sixth or seventh rank medicinal pills. You actually broke my spiritual spring water, you! "
That cultivator's morale was low. He simply couldn't understand what Ning Qi was saying. However, among the group of young people, there were two people who looked at each other and saw the horror in each other's eyes. They subconsciously moved their feet, planning to walk behind Ning Qi.
"Little brother, what do you mean?"
