"What is that?"
"It seems to be a treasure!"
"Oh my god, that should belong to Murong Xiu!"
"That seems to be the legendary purple gold gourd. It is said that this gourd can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, constantly condensing elixirs inside the gourd. Eating the elixir can not only prolong life, but also make your cultivation level advance by leaps and bounds!"
"No wonder Murong Xiu's cultivation speed is so fast, it turns out it's because of this reason..."
At this moment, after everyone knew the magical effect of the purple gold gourd, their eyes were filled with excitement.
If they could claim this thing as their own, wouldn't that be a great opportunity?
Even if I return empty-handed from the rest of the trip, it will still be worth the trip.
But they only dared to think about this idea in their hearts.
If they can’t beat Murong Xiu and the others, how can they possibly beat Ye Chen?
Isn't that seeking death?
Although treasures are good, they are useless if you don’t have the life to enjoy them.
With this thought in mind, they could only restrain their inner impulses and stare at Ye Chen with greedy eyes.
Ye Chen naturally heard the whispers around him, and he also understood the wonderful use of this purple gold gourd.
He could feel that this purple gold gourd was indeed continuously absorbing the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.
As long as one has this purple gold gourd, any martial artist's cultivation progress will surely advance by leaps and bounds.
But to him, this purple gold gourd was not a particularly important thing.
After all, he possesses the power of Qiankun Yibo, which can increase his strength dramatically just by killing monsters.
This purple gold gourd can only be regarded as the icing on the cake, or better than nothing.
However, Ye Chen thought so, but others did not think so.
Even the three elders, including Wanxing, looked at the purple-gold gourd in Ye Chen's hand with more or less greed in their eyes.
This kind of treasure is too attractive to them.
It even makes them more excited than an attack or defense type treasure.
This is a treasure that enables them to grow quickly!
Any improvement from external forces is not as practical as the rapid improvement of one's own cultivation.
The improvement of cultivation can not only greatly improve combat power, but also greatly increase one's lifespan.
If the situation keeps snowballing like this, as long as they are given enough time, they might have the chance to reach the imperial realm one day!
Everything else is external force; only cultivation is the foundation.
If the foundation is unstable, no matter how powerful the external things are, they are just clouds. If the foundation is solid, even without the support of external things, it will still be the best.
This is a truth that all martial artists can understand.
Therefore, it is conceivable how great the temptation is for strong people like Wanxing to have this purple gold gourd that can continuously improve one's cultivation.
This is because Murong Xiu hid it too perfectly, and no one had discovered the existence of this purple gold gourd before.
Otherwise, these guys would have started fighting among themselves long ago, and murder and robbery might have happened!
Therefore, the following situation is self-evident.
The old man with the white beard was the first to speak up: "Young friend Ye Chen, I'm afraid this item is a burden to you. Could you please hand it over to me? I am willing to give you 100 million spirit stones as a reward, and I will also do you a favor. What do you think?"
Among the three elders, he was naturally the one who desired the purple gold gourd the most.
He is now showing signs of old age, which is a sign that his life span is coming to an end. If he cannot break through the bottleneck or find some magic medicine to increase his life span, he will die completely.
And the purple gold gourd in front of him is the best treasure he desires.
Not going up and trying to grab it by force showed that he had great restraint.
Although Ye Chen's strength is indeed good, he is still a little immature compared with the elders of the three tribes.
Before Ye Chen could speak, the other strong elder in a waistcoat sneered and said, "Old Yun Ji, you have a good plan in mind. You actually want to buy such a priceless treasure with a mere 100 million spirit stones. You really don't want to lose your face. You have lived like a dog for hundreds of years."
"Lin Shan, you are so outrageous!"
Yun Ji blew his beard and glared at him, "I'm talking to friend Ye Chen, why are you butting in?"
He wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Wan Xing: "Haha, Elder Yunji, we are all foxes who have practiced for thousands of years, so why don't we act like white lotuses here?
What's the difference between what you're doing and open robbery?"
Faced with the simultaneous attack from the two elders, Yun Ji's expression instantly turned gloomy.
He said coldly, "Wanxing, do you also want to make an enemy of me? If you dare to continue to be so presumptuous, I will die with you even if it means I will sacrifice my own life!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the smile on Wanxing's face froze slightly.
Her cultivation level was originally lower than the previous two, and she was also much younger than them.
If Yun Ji was really angered and fought her to the death, she would obviously be the one who suffered.
The old man Yun Ji is half buried in the ground, but she is now in her prime and has plenty of time to spend and practice.
It is impossible to exchange one for one with the other party.
When he thought of this, Wan Xing's desire to fight for the purple gold gourd faded.
After all, compared to that extremely tempting treasure, one's own life is more precious.
What's more, she is still young and has extremely strong talent. Even without the help of this purple gold gourd, she will have the opportunity to step into a higher realm in the future.
Lin Shan obviously noticed Wan Xing's retreat and immediately said, "Don't be afraid, Wan Xing. With our combined strength, we might be able to make this old man stay here with his hatred. Then you and I can become Taoist companions, sharing this purple gold gourd. Wouldn't it be wonderful to be a pair of immortal Taoist companions?"
Upon hearing this, Wanxing looked towards Lin Shan, only to be met with a pair of fiery gazes.
She naturally knew that Lin Shan had always had feelings for her, and he had hinted to her many times before that he wanted to become her Taoist partner, but she had never responded positively.
Now that he made this request at this moment, it naturally made her heart beat fast.
If it were just the two of them, even if Yun Ji's realm was slightly higher than theirs and his combat experience was richer than theirs, he would probably still not be a match for the two of them working together.
Once Yun Ji is eliminated, there will be no one to hinder them, and the purple gold gourd will naturally fall into the hands of the two of them.
"Evening Star, I have lived longer than you, so I'm going to give you a piece of advice!"
Yun Ji was naturally panicked when he heard this. If the two of them really joined forces, he would definitely die today.
He then continued, "Since ancient times, the human heart is unpredictable. As the old saying goes, 'The heart is hidden beneath the belly.' Are you so sure that after you and Lin Shan team up to kill me, he won't turn against you and get rid of you, so that he can keep the purple gold gourd all for himself?"
