At this time, Zhao Yuande was already close to the Fallen Star Pool. When he realized that the two fellows did not chase after him, he could not help but feel slightly disappointed. These two fellows were too smart.
However, he was not in a hurry. He sat cross-legged by the pool. At most, he would wait here for the Spirit of All Mountains and Lin Tianzhao to see who could outlast the other.
"Hey! This kid is trying to piss us off! " When Jiang Chengnian saw that Zhao Yuande was completely ignoring them and cultivating with his eyes closed, he was furious. "If this kid has the ability, he can stay here for the rest of his life. If he can't, we'll send a message back and ask our family to send experts to kill him."
"No … Not yet. If your family sends out even stronger experts, we won't get any benefits!" Li Zhen did not wish to see such a situation happen. Otherwise, her efforts would have been in vain.
Their Dali Dynasty did not have any experts above the Heavenly Emperor level. If the experts from the Jiang family came, they might find him an eyesore and deal with him together. At that time, he could only leave with his tail between his legs.
"Okay, then let's observe first!" Jiang Chengnian did not give up. He had been dealing with affairs in the Shattered Star Ring all year round and did not have much to gain. This time, he happened to come back and his family issued this mission. It was not easy for him to get it. He originally wanted to make a lot of money, but he did not want to give up just like that.
Zhao Yuande pretended to be cultivating with his eyes closed in an attempt to trick the two old fellows over. However, after a long time, the two fellows did not fall for his trick.
"Oh! What smells so good? " Zhao Yuande suddenly smelled a fragrance that assailed his nostrils. He only needed to ask a little before he felt refreshed.
He opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the fragrance. He found an old vine crawling on the high cliff. The old vine was full of flower buds, and at this time, a flower bud was blooming.
"This is a gourd vine!" Zhao Yuande recognized the species of the old vine at a glance. What surprised him was that the old vine was winding upwards, as if it had crawled all over the cliff. Earlier, his line of sight had been blocked by the waterfall, but now that he took a closer look, he saw such a strange sight.
For a gourd vine to be so luxuriant, would the gourd it produced be something heaven-defying?
He looked up the cliff and found that at the top of the extremely high cliff, there was actually a sparkling gourd the size of a palm. It shone brightly, as if it was made of beautiful jade, emitting a colorful light.
This was a treasure!
"The Gourd of Baleful Wind, a Connate Spirit Treasure. It contains Connate Baleful Wind Qi and can slay one's soul!"
Zhao Yuande stared at the gourd in shock. He could feel a surge of Xiantian energy circulating around it. This was actually a Xiantian Spiritual Treasure!
Could it be … could it be that this old vine was the gourd vine that had existed since the beginning of the world?
This was a little too inconceivable!
Just as Zhao Yuande's heart was surging with excitement, the two old men seemed to have smelled the fragrance. They also saw Zhao Yuande's actions and couldn't help but follow Zhao Yuande's gaze and see the gourd.
"Connate numinous treasure!"
The two old men's eyes lit up, filled with greed.
At this time, the two old men could no longer remain calm. Their eyes were fixed on the gourd and their bodies involuntarily moved forward.
A Connate numinous treasure was definitely a great temptation. Even Zhao Yuande couldn't help but breathe a little faster at this time.
He carefully followed the edge of the pool to the bottom of the cliff. He didn't disturb the terrifying existence in the pool. He came in front of the thick gourd vine and reached out to grab it. He wanted to climb the vine to the top and take the gourd.
But before his hand touched the gourd vine, he felt a terrifying aura emanating from the deep pool. This was the giant wild beast's warning not to let Zhao Yuande touch the vine!
Zhao Yuande's heart skipped a beat. He felt a strong deterrent force, but he didn't feel any killing intent.
This was a kind of indifference. The terrifying existence in the deep pool didn't think Zhao Yuande had the ability to take the gourd. It was just intimidating Zhao Yuande and not letting him have wishful thinking.
Zhao Yuande was shocked. Fortunately, the giant wild beast didn't have any killing intent towards him. Otherwise, he would be in trouble.
When the two old men behind him saw this, they could no longer sit still. They did not want this Primordial Spirit Treasure to fall into the hands of this kid. Their speed grew faster and faster, and they gradually closed in on the three thousand zhang radius of the Fallen Star Pool.
"Roar!"
An angry roar came from the bottom of the pool.
A kind of fear that came from the depths of the soul suddenly emerged, and the two old fellows stopped in their tracks. They only felt as if they were wandering between life and death. If they took another step forward, the savage behemoth in the deep pool would directly tear them apart.
Just as Zhao Yuande was about to climb up again, a white light suddenly flew from the horizon at an extremely fast speed.
The white light approached the top of the cliff and easily swept away the gourd that was emitting seven-colored light.
"Roar!"
The savage giant beast in the deep pool was finally enraged. Someone had repeatedly challenged its dignity and even took away the Wind Gourd that it had been guarding for a long time.
"Ninth-level fierce beast, Sky-burning Crane. Strong body, containing a trace of Sky-burning Flame. High-grade ingredient, matching recipe …"
A water dragon rose from the bottom of the pool. Its huge body stretched out and directly grabbed at the white light in the sky.
The water dragon's speed was unbelievably fast. It appeared in front of the white light as if it had teleported.
The white light was fiercely slapped away by the water dragon's claw. The gourd was caught between the dragon's claws.
"Damn! His control of the Great Dao of Water has reached perfection. This guy is amazing. He's almost comparable to a God Emperor! " Zhao Yuande couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. This water dragon was just an illusion of the pool's water, but it could directly slap away a ninth-level Sky-burning Crane. How powerful was it?
Although the Sky-burning Crane was sent flying, it wasn't injured. The white crane was furious that the gourd had been taken away. Its body transformed into an immortal sword and charged at the water dragon.
The Sky-burning Crane was a ninth-level fierce beast after all. Its power was comparable to a Heavenly Emperor. In addition to its elegant body, it was much faster than the water dragon when it was angry.
Although the water dragon was strong, it was still an inanimate object. In an instant, the Sky-burning Crane pierced dozens of holes in it.
The water dragon's body disintegrated, and the gourd fell from the field.
The Sky-burning Crane cried out and charged at the gourd again, wanting to take it away.
But at that moment, a huge claw suddenly reached out from the pool and slapped at the Sky-burning Crane.
This claw was like a dragon's claw. Its scales were dense, and its claws were like hooks. The sharp cold light was bone-chilling.
"Little bird, don't waste your energy!"
An extremely muffled sound came from the deep pool. The sound shook the surroundings, and even the high cliffs trembled a little.
