"Who is it? Stand up!" The late Jindan peak cultivator let out an angry growl.
Everyone was startled and left their cultivation state, looking at the late Jindan peak cultivator, not understanding what had happened.
Su Jinyue realized that she had been discovered collecting the spiritual fluid and immediately stopped. She didn't want to become the target of public criticism.
"Who on earth collected the spiritual liquid in the spiritual marrow pool? Stand up! Otherwise, when I find out, it will be your death." The late Jindan peak cultivator glanced coldly at everyone, trying to find a clue from their faces.
Su Jinyue's expression was calm. She hadn't practiced since that day's Golden Core breakthrough, but her cultivation had improved somewhat. After arriving on the Tianyue Continent, she'd learned a great deal about cultivation, and she knew her cultivation speed was very fast. Xiao Jin said it had something to do with her rebirth and the strength of her soul.
The late Jindan peak cultivator glanced at everyone and found nothing. His anger grew even more intense. "If you don't tell me, I will investigate one by one."
Everyone was a little angry when they heard the words of the late Jindan peak cultivator. Every cultivator's storage bag and storage ring were equivalent to their life, holding many secrets and treasures they had obtained, which they naturally didn't want others to see. They even suspected that the late Jindan peak cultivator was relying on his high level of cultivation to deliberately find an excuse to take their treasures.
"Senior! Although your cultivation is high, the storage ring is equivalent to the second life of a cultivator. I will not let you check it casually." A mid-stage Jindan cultivator said in a deep voice.
"That's right! We won't examine you." Someone immediately agreed.
The late Jindan peak cultivator looked at the mid-Jindan cultivator and sneered, "Could it be that you are the one who stole the spiritual liquid? That's why you are so worried that I will check your storage ring." He was using this incident to see if anyone had the treasure he needed.
"If you think so, senior, I have nothing to say, but I, Xiao Xun, am not a soft persimmon that can be bullied." Xiao Xun said coldly.
"He is Xiao Xun, the genius disciple of Wuye Sect." Someone immediately revealed Xiao Xun's origins.
"I heard that Xiao Xun had already broken through the Golden Core Stage at the age of twenty, and he is also a sixth-level formation master."
The late Jindan peak cultivator heard Xiao Xun's name and knew his origins. The Wuye Sect was the leader of the ten major sects in Tianyue Continent. Although his sect was also powerful, it was still weaker than the Wuye Sect. It seemed that the only way to keep things quiet this time was to keep things quiet.
With an unwilling snort, the late Jindan peak cultivator said in a deep voice: "I am going to advance to Yuanying now, and I will take my share with me." As he spoke, he did not care what everyone thought, and directly summoned the Huntian Gourd to start collecting the spiritual liquid in the spiritual marrow pool.
Although everyone was angry, the other party was stronger than them, and would soon be promoted to the Nascent Soul stage. They could not afford to offend him and could only suppress their anger in their hearts.
Seeing that everyone's attention was focused on the late Jindan peak cultivator, Su Jinyue began to collect the spiritual fluid from the pool again. At this time, the late Jindan peak cultivator was using a gourd to collect the spiritual fluid. Even if others noticed that the spiritual fluid was decreasing rapidly, they would think it was the late Jindan peak cultivator's doing. She just needed to grasp the timing and speed.
The late Jindan peak cultivator put away the Huntian Gourd, stood up, and walked towards the Spirit Marrow Pool. He had already gotten what he deserved, so even if that person stole the rest, it had nothing to do with him.
When the late Jindan peak cultivator left, everyone could no longer suppress the anger in their hearts.
"Shameless bastard! Don't let me meet you next time."
"Let's chase him. With so many of us, can't we kill that arrogant guy?"
"Do you think you're so great just because you're so strong? One day I'll surpass you."
A late Jindan cultivator stood up and waved his hand at the shouting crowd. "Only half of the spiritual fluid in the Spirit Marrow Pool is left. All late Foundation Establishment cultivators, late Foundation Establishment peak cultivators, and early Jindan cultivators, please leave the Spirit Marrow Pool immediately."
The late Foundation Establishment cultivators and those at the peak of the late stage stood up without hesitation and left the Spirit Marrow Pool. After all, today was their last day of cultivation in the Spirit Marrow Pool. Although they felt a little uncomfortable leaving early, they were still lucky compared to those cultivators at the early Golden Core stage.
Upon hearing this, the cultivators in the early stage of the Golden Core Realm were so angry that they cursed in their hearts.
"Why should we leave? It's not time for us to practice yet."
"Although you are powerful, you can't be so unreasonable. One moment you want to check our storage bags, and the next moment you want to drive us out of the Spirit Marrow Pool. Do you think we are made of mud?"
"We have tempers too. The worst that can happen is a fight."
The late Jindan cultivator looked at another late Jindan cultivator beside him and said, "Senior Brother Ji, what should we do?" They were from the same sect. Now, apart from Lan Moqi, who was of equal strength to them, there was no third late Jindan cultivator here.
"Kill one to warn the rest," the late Jindan cultivator said coldly. Being too lenient with these cultivators would only lead them to become more aggressive.
The late Jindan cultivator nodded, looked at the shouting early Jindan cultivator, raised his hand and swept out a wind blade.
When the Jindan cultivator realized something was wrong and wanted to escape, it was too late. His head was cut off by the wind blade and rolled into the Spirit Marrow Pool. His body, which was spurting blood, also slowly fell into the Spirit Marrow Pool at the same time.
In just a moment, the spiritual fluid in the spiritual marrow pool was dyed red by blood.
Su Jinyue frowned as she gazed at the crimson pool of spiritual marrow. Luckily, she had reached shore before the late Jindan cultivators attacked, otherwise she would have been unable to endure it. She was different from the cultivators of the Tianyue Continent. They were accustomed to killing, and as long as they could gain something, they wouldn't mind using human blood to cultivate. They valued strength, and even if it came from stepping on the corpses of others, they felt no guilt. In this world, only the strongest fist mattered, not the source of strength.
When Su Jinyue came ashore, Lan Moqi and the Alchemist Association followed suit. Now, the only two disciples of the Lan family left to cultivate in the Spirit Marrow Pool were the two Lan family disciples.
"Mo Wu, Mo Qing," Lan Moqi called out to the two Lan family disciples cultivating in the Spirit Marrow Pool. He had originally intended to collect some Spirit Liquid, just like the late Jindan peak cultivator had done before, but now that the Spirit Liquid was stained with blood, he immediately lost interest.
