The sect leader of Xuanling Sect looked at the scene in the Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains Map and a smug smile appeared on his lips.
Hmph, is the Eternal Golden Lotus, a seventh-tier spiritual herb, so easy to obtain?
Three hundred years ago, he went to great lengths for this seed, and later spent a lot of rare and precious materials to cultivate the Eternal Golden Lotus.
The reason he placed the Eternal Golden Lotus in the "Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" painting was to show off.
How could we possibly let these Foundation Establishment disciples take away something we wanted to show off?
Xuan Qingye covered his face. Sigh, he knew it. The appearance of this Eternal Golden Lotus here must mean it was no ordinary thing.
This is the spirit of the "Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" painting, the one that controls the entire painting. With it protecting it, even a Great Luo Golden Immortal wouldn't be able to take the Eternal Golden Lotus away.
Su Qing was also frustrated. Such a wonderful treasure, something she had always wanted, yet she could only look at it and not have it. It was truly upsetting.
Su Qing squatted by Crescent Lake, staring at the Eternal Golden Lotus in the lake, pondering what to do.
Kill the spirit of the artifact?
Regardless of whether Su Qing has the ability, if the Xuanling Sect leader discovers that she destroyed the artifact spirit, he will probably rush up and kill her.
No, no, that definitely won't do.
Ideally, one should obtain the Eternal Golden Lotus without harming the spirit of the artifact.
Or should we try again?
Thinking this, Su Qing flicked her wrist, and a stack of Earth-Splitting Talismans were thrown into Crescent Lake.
"boom!"
With a deafening roar, the Earth-Splitting Talisman blasted a channel through the surface of Crescent Lake, leading directly to the Eternal Golden Lotus...
Snap!
Su Qing hurriedly retreated, and saw the large carp with golden scales leap up, flick its tail, and slap towards Su Qing. If Su Qing hadn't dodged quickly, she would probably have been slapped to the ground by now.
The passage opened by the Earth-Splitting Talisman closed again, and the golden koi fell into Crescent Lake. This time, the golden koi did not immediately sink to the bottom of the lake, but swam around in Crescent Lake several times, jumping up and down several times as if in a show of defiance, before finally sinking to the bottom of the lake again.
Oh, then let's try the Thunder Spirit Talisman.
Su Qing threw the Thunder Spirit Talisman out of her hand.
Suddenly, lightning flashed and thunder roared over Crescent Lake, with purple lightning bolts plunging into the lake water.
Purple lightning crackled across the surface of Crescent Lake, and then, to everyone's astonishment, the golden koi leaped out of the water once more.
"Smack!"
The water of Crescent Lake was splashed more than a hundred feet high by the golden koi carp, and then all of it flowed towards Su Qing.
Su Qing didn't care at all, because when Xuan Qingye raised her hand, the water column was instantly frozen into an ice column.
The icicle crashed into Crescent Lake, causing the golden koi to leap and fall repeatedly in the water. At this point, Su Qing finally understood that although the golden koi was an incarnation of the artifact spirit, it was only one of its incarnations.
Moreover, being trapped in Crescent Lake, unable to leave it even a step, it's not even a guardian beast of the Eternal Golden Lotus, just a bluffing thing.
Su Qing smiled and raised an eyebrow at Xuan Qingye, saying, "I have a way."
With that, Su Qing leaped onto the Jade Lotus Sword, drawing an arc in the air, and provocatively threw an explosive talisman at the golden koi.
The lake water was blasted up with a loud crash, sending up large splashes. Su Qing weaved through the water, with golden koi carp chasing closely behind.
Su Qing flew extremely fast on her sword, making several sharp turns and stops in the air, making the golden koi fish spin around in circles.
Xuan Qingye was on tenterhooks for Su Qing several times, as she herself was ashamed of her own flying skills.
The golden koi was completely enraged. It opened its mouth wide, leaped into the air, and tried to swallow Su Qing whole. Unfortunately, Su Qing grabbed the golden koi's whiskers and flung it away like a swing, sending it flying over a hundred miles away. Then, the Jade Lotus Sword drew a green halo in the air and caught Su Qing steadily.
After several such encounters, Jinse Jinli was led by Su Qing to the tip of Crescent Lake.
The golden koi carp was completely unaware that it had fallen for Su Qing's trick. When it leaped into the air again, intending to slap Su Qing back into the lake with its tail, it was unable to move.
Because Xuan Qingye actually froze the entire fish.
It watched helplessly as Su Qing stepped on the Jade Lotus Sword and swept past it, while it was unable to move.
Xuan Qingye stood on the shore, covering his mouth and chuckling. He really hadn't expected Su Qing's method to be like this.
The Xuanling Sect leader's eyes widened, and he was so angry that he almost smashed the table.
To prevent the artifact spirit from harming the Foundation Establishment cultivators in the Myriad Miles of Rivers and Mountains Map, he set a restriction on the artifact spirit, which was that its avatar could not leave Crescent Lake.
Of course, this also means that the golden koi is invincible within the Crescent Lake area.
Su Qing, on the other hand, took advantage of this loophole to lure the golden koi carp outside the Crescent Lake area, thus breaking the restriction, and then had Xuan Qingye freeze the golden koi carp directly...
Su Qing drew a graceful arc in the air, then flew to the side of the Eternal Golden Lotus on her sword. Looking around, she saw that there was no one else to cause trouble. She bent down and picked the Eternal Golden Lotus.
"Su Qing, run!"
Xuan Qingye's voice rang out, and Su Qing didn't dare to turn around. She soared up on her sword and flew straight into the sky.
Behind them, the spirit of the artifact was enraged because the Eternal Golden Lotus had been harvested, and the golden koi instantly broke free from the freezing spell.
The golden koi roared furiously, the wind howled, and the fishy smell of water filled the air. Su Qing gripped the Eternal Golden Lotus tightly, her heart pounding with tension.
Good heavens, she used tricks to make Xuan Qingye use her freezing technique, but she could only control the golden koi for a few breaths. Although she managed to pluck the Eternal Golden Lotus, she will now have to face the wrath of the artifact spirit.
She would never let go of the Eternal Golden Lotus once it was in her hands!
Okay, let's give it our all then.
At the highest point in the sky, Su Qing suddenly made a sharp turn, and in one swift motion, she came face to face with the golden koi fish.
Just inches away, Su Qing was about to crash into the golden koi's mouth, but unexpectedly, she used a teleportation talisman and flashed to the top of the golden koi's head.
Then, a whole bunch of talismans appeared where Su Qing had been standing...
"burst!"
As the blue flames ignited, Su Qing had already fallen from the sky.
A whole bunch of talismans were sucked into the giant mouth of the golden koi.
Holding the Eternal Golden Lotus, Su Qing plummeted into Crescent Lake like a cannonball, while the golden koi carp transformed into a giant fireball in mid-air!
"Bang!" The Xuanling Sect leader slammed his fist on the table, shattering it.
Jiang and Bai, the Dharma Protectors, stared at this scene with their mouths agape, unable to close them for a long time.
Good heavens, Su Qing has really gone too far! She actually gave one of the spirit incarnations of the "Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" painting to...
Su Qing emerged from Crescent Lake soaking wet just as the fireball crashed into the lake, instantly turning the once clear water black.
Then, a large carp that had been roasted floated on the surface of Crescent Lake.
Xuan Qingye looked at the cooked carp speechlessly, not knowing what to say.
"I've got the Eternal Golden Lotus!" Su Qing said with a grin, holding the Eternal Golden Lotus. "You cooperated well. I'll share some of the pills with you once they're ready."
Oh dear, whether it's a pill or not is unimportant. You've already destroyed one of the spirit incarnations of the Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains Painting. The sect leader is probably going to be so angry that he'll faint right now.
