57: The secret treasure entrance appears!
Outside the tent.
As Jiang Lin emerged, Shangguan Yaoyao greeted him.
"Young Master, Xian'er has been waiting for you for a long time!"
Her soft voice seemed to stir the deepest desires within every man.
"Cough, cough, Xian'er, today might not work. I'll dote on you properly when I have time later!" Jiang Lin said with a playful smile and a mischievous expression.
As he spoke, he didn't forget to casually touch Shangguan Yaoyao.
Shangguan Yaoyao frowned slightly and pouted, "Young Master, are you willing to let Xian'er stay alone in an empty room?"
Jiang Lin's expression became serious, and he said, "I really have plans today, don't mess around!"
Seeing Jiang Lin like this, Shangguan Yaoyao could only take a deep breath.
Too much is as bad as too little; she couldn't always use the Hehuan Sect's 'Seductive Allure Technique'!
"Alright then, Xian'er will be obedient!"
With that, Shangguan Yaoyao's face moved directly in front of Jiang Lin's. Before Jiang Lin could react, a lingering deep kiss had already arrived.
In the distance, Xiao Dong had just finished absorbing the power of the chaotic flow. The Chaos Pearl could now begin to produce small amounts of chaotic flow power.
The moment Xiao Dong opened his eyes, he saw that passionate scene.
The joy of his successful endeavor instantly vanished, replaced by deep envy and profound frustration.
Inside the tent,
Hearing Jiang Lin's refusal, Lin Qingxue's lips curved slightly upward.
"At least you're sensible, knowing not to get lost in female charm..."
But before she could finish speaking, Xia Shirou's voice, like a nightingale, entered her ears.
"Jiang Lin, you're truly hopeless!"
On the other side,
Shangguan Yaoyao bit her lip, huffing angrily:
"Good, good, is this your 'serious business'?
"You're spreading your favors evenly, aren't you!"
......
The morning wind swept across the endless desert.
Donghuang Pan was the first to open her eyes, looking at the reddish sunrise in the sky.
She had already recovered eighty percent of her strength!
"Lin Shenzhi's tea is truly terrifying; it's practically a healing elixir!"
Donghuang Pan glanced at the tent where the battle had just subsided, scoffing inwardly, "Indulging in female charm, neglecting proper duties—such a Human Race Dao Child truly doesn't deserve his talent!"
At this moment, Little Wu also woke up.
"Young Miss, today's direction hasn't changed; it's still due north!"
Donghuang Pan nodded.
Knowing the location of the Treasure Trove, there must be layers of trials inside, and even Yao Beasts guarding it!
This time, I will absolutely not make the first move. I'll be the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it!
Let the Human Race Dao Child clear the path first, then I'll make my move and snatch the Treasure Trove!
Time passed bit by bit, until the sun was high in the sky, and only then did Jiang Lin leisurely emerge from the tent.
"Brother Ye, we're ready to depart!"
Donghuang Pan was filled with disdain.
You only have five days in total, yet you rest at night, don't get up in the morning, and now it's almost noon before you set off!
Truly losing ambition to trivial pursuits, wasting time.
Soon, the group once again embarked on their journey.
Turning left and right, everyone still found nothing.
But unlike the previous two days, today they encountered several Soul Transformation Stage Yao Beasts.
After a considerable struggle, the group barely managed to kill them with Xiao Dong's Heaven-Defying combat power.
At this moment, Jiang Lin secretly felt regret.
No one to clear the way anymore!
Dusk had arrived, and the sunlight spilled over the boundless desert, like a golden sea, shimmering with light.
Xiao Dong knew that, with Jiang Lin's personality, it was time to rest!
He no longer held any expectations for this treasure hunt.
For the past few days, they had been in the desert, searching high and low, but saw nothing.
This path, moreover, was just him randomly leading based on his feelings.
It would be a miracle if they found a Treasure Trove!
But thinking that there were still two days left, he felt a little unwilling.
Although his own goal had been achieved, he really wanted to see what was inside the lost secret Treasure Trove...
On the other side, Little Wu asked in confusion, "Young Miss, I sense the Treasure Trove is right here! But there's nothing above or below!"
Donghuang Pan was also very frustrated.
She didn't know the reason either.
And it was very inexplicable.
The other party had no equipment whatsoever, yet they just walked to the place Little Wu detected.
Little Wu was a thousand-year-old treasure-seeking rat who had gained sentience.
Her talent was unique in the world!
Did the other party just stumble here purely by Luck?
Moreover, what seemed like random turns actually perfectly avoided some troublesome Yao Beasts.
What kind of Luck was this!
Could it be that the Human Race was truly destined to prosper?
Now, the Treasure Trove was here, how could it be opened?
Jiang Lin looked at the endless desert, sighing in his heart:
"It should be here!"
"That black secret rat has already used its Treasure-Seeking Art three times in a row!"
"Next, it's up to you, Xiao Dong!"
"Can you connect to the Divine Path? Can you obtain the forging Legacy?"
"It all depends on your fortune. I only want one thing, the Karma Fire Red Lotus!"
"Everything else is yours, I don't care!"
Just then, Xiao Dong asked, "Shen Zhi, shall we continue our journey? There are only two days left..."
Jiang Lin waved the folding fan in his hand, interrupting him, "Brother Ye is too anxious. Heaven and Earth are all about Karma. What's yours will eventually be yours!"
"What's not yours, you shouldn't force it!"
Xiao Dong pouted, disagreeing inwardly.
Heavenly Dao rewards diligence, and the Great Dao is about contention.
Cultivating Immortality is undoubtedly about contention!
Contending with people, contending with time, contending with Heaven and Earth!
If, as you say, everything waits for Heaven and Earth's Karma to deliver it to you, then everyone could achieve Immortal Ascension and seek the Dao!
Although he was very dissatisfied inwardly, he couldn't force the issue and had to agree.
Night fell.
After Jiang Lin finished explaining the Cultivation Technique to Lin Qingxue, just as he was about to leave,
Jiang Lin said, "Second Sister, no matter what happens next, you must not expose your strength. You only need to protect yourself and Xia Shirou, and then keep an eye on this return-to-city talisman. At a critical moment, help me crush it!"
Lin Qingxue took the return-to-city talisman, tossed her head, and said grumpily, "You don't need to worry about my affairs!"
Tsundere!
Extremely tsundere!
Jiang Lin couldn't completely grasp Lin Qingxue's emotions now; she was unpredictable, sometimes happy, sometimes fierce!
But all in all, she was still very cooperative with him.
She felt like the big sister next door who was throwing a tantrum.
Shaking his head to clear away distracting thoughts, Jiang Lin said, "Second Sister, want to look at the starry sky? The stars should be beautiful tonight!"
A glint flashed in Lin Qingxue's eyes, then she thought of something and said grumpily, "Go spend time with your beloved concubine and maidservant. Don't try to curry favor with me!"
Jiang Lin chuckled, "Are you really not going to look? You won't regret it!"
Lin Qingxue looked doubtful, "You want me to go that badly? Then let's go take a look?"
Jiang Lin's lips curved slightly upward, and he extended his hand, "Please!"
Outside the tent,
Duan Tianya was explaining the refining method of the Dragon Roaming Pill to Xiao Dong.
"Old man, you're saying there's really Dragon Clan Bloodline inside this demon core?"
Xiao Dong took out the Scorpion Demon King's demon core and held it up to the starlight, looking into its interior.
Its interior was like honey, a deep amber color that looked exceptionally beautiful under the starlight.
"Definitely, I wouldn't be mistaken. That tail is a characteristic of Dragon Clan descendants..."
"Oh no, I can't control it!"
Before Duan Tianya could finish speaking, the demon core in Xiao Dong's hand suddenly flew into the sky.
Not far away, Jiang Lin was strolling with Lin Qingxue, followed by Shangguan Yaoyao and Xia Shirou.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the demon core in Xiao Dong's hand fly up.
He knew it was coming!
The next moment, the demon core in the sky suddenly transformed into a towering pillar of light, pointing directly at the starry sky.
"What's happening?"
Donghuang Pan quickly turned around, looking at this celestial phenomenon.
Little Wu excitedly said, "Young Miss, it should be a sign of the Treasure Trove opening!"
Donghuang Pan said in a deep voice, "Be ready to snatch the Treasure Trove at any moment, then use the return-to-city talisman to escape back!"
"Understood, Young Miss!"
Lin Qingxue looked at the scene before her in surprise, connecting it to Jiang Lin's invitation: "You knew already?"
Jiang Lin closed the folding fan in his hand, revealing his characteristic calm and composed smile.
"It was bound to happen. We can't really return empty-handed, can we!"
"Do I really look like a big pushover?"
"Second Sister, don't forget what I told you!"
