"Since we're already here" is a universally applicable phrase that's always true, no matter the time.

Shi Xuan was also a little curious, so when Shen Wuyang said that, he simply went along with it.

They had already circled the entire floating island carefully, but in the end they still hadn't realized they hadn't explored the whole island or found the entrance.

This time, the whole team started again, circling around the center once more.

This time they finally realized something was wrong.

Every time they tried to go further, it was as if they had reached the foot of a mountain, with a few big trees behind them and a steep rock face that looked impossible to climb. That's why they stopped when they got here, subconsciously thinking they had reached the end.

Everywhere was a cliff, with no place to enter.

Shi Xuan laughed and said, "Since we're blocked on all sides, let's go in from another direction!"

As she spoke, she took the lead in summoning the Puppet Sword, which had now become her personal flying sword. Fortunately, the Puppet Sword did not have a sword spirit, otherwise it would have been miserable.

"Let's try it from top to bottom."

As I soared into the air on my sword, I looked down and saw that the entire area below was covered by lush, green trees.

Shi Xuan stepped on the puppet sword and took out the Concealed Edge Sword.

"Go!" A surge of pure spiritual energy was injected into the Lianfeng Sword. The Lianfeng Sword, carrying the combined power of itself and Shi Xuan, swept downwards in a spiral. Wherever it went, the crowns of the towering trees snapped off and fell one after another.

Before long, the Concealed Edge Sword had cleared a spacious area.

The exposed terrain reveals that this is a ring-shaped mountain.

The surrounding area is high and the middle is low, which is very similar to the valley where Shi Xuan was thrown down by Fan Hongde when he woke up.

Shi Xuan did not land rashly, but first sent two puppets down to control the path. Only after confirming that there were no problems did Shi Xuan lead his group down.

The ground was covered with the branches and leaves of the big trees, making it impossible to see whether there were any calming flowers.

Shi Xuan asked everyone to take out empty storage bags and put all the branches and leaves on the ground into them. After a while, the original landscape was finally revealed.

If you were to ask whether there are tranquil flowers in the valley that has revealed its original appearance, the answer would be yes.

Not only are they there, they're everywhere!

The peace lilies here grow like wild grass, in vast patches, so there's no need to search for them; you can just pick them anywhere. Perhaps no one has been here for many years, so the peace lilies grow freely, everywhere they go.

The team members felt as if they had suddenly fallen into a pile of spirit stones. This wasn't a ground full of calming flowers; it was a ground full of points!

Without even needing the captain's instructions, the team members immediately sprang into action, cheerfully picking up the calming flowers.

Shi Xuan, on the other hand, wandered around, touching this and looking there, showing no intention of collecting the Tranquilizing Flower.

The team members ignored him and happily continued picking their own food.

The calming flower is a delicate variety, and to maintain its medicinal efficacy, it is best to retain as many roots as possible.

After receiving the task, Shi Xuan trained them, and each of them prepared collection tools. At this moment, they were all digging with great enthusiasm.

"Captain, why don't we skip the rest tonight and dig for a whole day and night? We can finish digging this whole area!" Chen Qi suggested as he dug.

His suggestion was accepted by everyone, even the usually extravagant Shen brothers nodded in agreement.

The ten Tranquilizing Flowers required for the mission were dug up in the first wave, but Tranquilizing Flowers are much more valuable than Green Rats, and can be exchanged for more points. With so many points on the ground, if not now, when?

Two hours later, Shi Xuan stopped wandering around and started digging with his teammates. Some of the better-quality plants were transplanted directly into the Silver Frost Space to continue growing.

Suddenly, Shi Xuan straightened up as if sensing something, and said alertly, "Someone's coming!"

The other team members hadn't noticed yet, but when they heard Shi Xuan say this, they immediately stood up, scattered around digging their own digs, and quickly gathered around Shi Xuan.

Sure enough, a short while later, a group of people descended from the sky and landed in front of the best team.

They were dressed in uniform dark blue disciple robes, looking very neat, unlike the best team members who were dressed in all sorts of colors and styles.

The man opposite them was upright with a sharp face and angular features; he didn't look like someone easy to get along with.

The two were strangers to each other, but they sized each other up and were able to judge each other's situation with just a glance.

The uniformity of their dark blue team uniforms clearly indicated that they were a team assembled by a major sect. Their cultivation levels were generally higher than the best teams, and each of them exuded a sense of elite skill.

Shi Xuan's best team was clearly a motley crew, with people from many sects gathered together, some even wearing casual clothes. Their cultivation levels also looked much weaker, with most barely reaching the seventh level of the Golden Core stage. It was undoubtedly a newly arrived team.

Once the two sides meet, without even lifting a finger, it's immediately clear who is stronger and who is weaker.

A slightly shorter man stood up next to the leader in the navy blue uniform and said directly, "Leave all the Tranquilizing Flowers you just dug up, and we'll let you leave."

Shi Xuan didn't look directly at him, but stared straight at the leader and asked with a smile, "What if we disagree? What will be the consequences?"

The man finally spoke, replying, "Let's try courtesy first, then force. If you don't know what's good for you, then leave everything you have behind."

He spoke with great confidence, as if subduing Shi Xuan and everyone on his side was just a matter of moving a finger, effortless.

Judging from their formation, they certainly have the ability and the right to be arrogant.

Shi Xuan feigned fear and whispered to confirm, "Are you the number one ranked Hongmeng team?"

When the opposing team heard her ask that question, they all showed proud expressions, clearly very proud of their team.

"You know that much," the short man who spoke first readily admitted. When it comes to the Hongmeng Team, all the other teams in the outer realm would probably have to give way.

"You're talking nonsense!" Shi Xuan suddenly raised his voice, "Don't think I don't know. Before I left, I checked the miscellaneous area in the virtual hall. Everyone there praised the Hongmeng Team as the most dignified team in the entire outer realm, helping the weak and oppressed, and always ready to help others. How could they be like you, directly robbing newcomers! You must be imposters! You even dare to impersonate the Hongmeng Team, how dare you! I'll expose you when I get back!"

For a moment, the members of the Hongmeng team on the other side were at a loss for how to react. This female cultivator was praising them while scolding them, and they couldn't tell whether she was praising them or scolding them.

The short man paused for a moment, then roared, "Why waste words with her? Since she won't listen to reason, let's just go for it!"
