301: Transaction, the heroes gather at the foot of Xuanling Mountain! [Seeking follow-up reading]
When the Gu Family saw Young Master Lin looking over, their expressions changed slightly, and they felt a wave of tension and unease in their hearts.
After all, the Wei Family's group had just been annihilated by Young Master Lin and his brother!
Compared to the Wei Family's group, their strength was still a notch inferior.
They were afraid that if they displeased Young Master Lin in any way, they would be annihilated by him.
Gu Yan took a deep breath, composed herself, and said to Young Master Lin, "Young Master Lin, rest assured, we will not reveal a single word of what happened just now."
Young Master Lin said casually, "I'm not worried about the news leaking. Don't be nervous. My brother and I are very easy to talk to; we just have a few questions for you."
You are easy to talk to?
Without a word, you killed everyone from the Wei Family. Is that what you call easy to talk to?
The Gu Family members couldn't help but think to themselves when they heard Young Master Lin's words, but they dared not show the slightest expression on their faces.
Gu Yan softly asked, "What would Young Master Lin like to ask?"
Young Master Lin said, "You just mentioned the life profound spirit fruit. Where exactly is it located?"
"The island we are on is called Xuanling Island. On Xuanling Island, there is a Xuanling Mountain, and the life profound spirit fruit is in the deepest part of Xuanling Mountain."
Gu Yan dared not conceal anything and recounted everything she knew.
"Additionally, according to the information we've gathered, Xuanling Mountain has many Yao Beasts, and at the summit, there is a Three-headed Demonic Dragon whose strength has reached the Early Stage of Life Profound Realm."
Lin Dong, who was beside them, couldn't help but show a look of eagerness in his eyes when he heard Gu Yan's words.
He had fortunately achieved a Breakthrough to the Eight Yuan Nirvana Realm in the Different Demon Domain. If he could obtain the life profound spirit fruit, it would undoubtedly be of considerable help in improving his cultivation.
Lin Dong suddenly thought of something and asked Gu Yan, "That Wei Song just now must have also been after the life profound spirit fruit, right?"
Gu Yan nodded and said, "Indeed. And it's not just the Wei Family; I'm afraid other forces will also come to contend for the life profound spirit fruit."
"It's normal for Heaven And Earth Treasure to be contended for. At that time, it will be up to each to use their own abilities," Young Master Lin said with a faint smile, completely unconcerned.
Gu Yan flattered, "With the strength of the two Young Master Lins, there will certainly be no problem in acquiring two life profound spirit fruits."
Young Master Lin smiled and said nothing.
Lin Dong, however, asked, "Miss Gu Yan, what kind of forces are the Wei Family and the Evil Wind Cave that Wei Song mentioned earlier?"
They had just arrived in the Tianfeng Sea Region and had already provoked these two forces. Lin Dong was cautious by nature and wanted to understand their background in advance.
Upon hearing Lin Dong's question, Gu Yan immediately introduced the Wei Family and the Evil Wind Cave, and incidentally, some of the major forces in the Tianfeng Sea Region.
"Thank you," Lin Dong said, expressing his gratitude, and then asked again, "Miss Gu Yan, do you have a map of this Chaotic Demon Sea?"
Lin Dong remembered that the second Ancestor Symbol was located somewhere in the Chaotic Demon Sea, according to the map he saw in the Symbol Master Tower.
If he had a map of the Chaotic Demon Sea to compare, he would know where the Ancestor Symbol was.
"Young Master Lin is referring to a sea chart, right?" Gu Yan replied, "The Chaotic Demon Sea is extremely vast and divided into many sea regions. Our Tianfeng Sea Region is just one of them."
"I don't have a complete sea chart on me, only a map of the Tianfeng Sea Region. After the matter of the life profound spirit fruit is concluded, the two Young Masters can visit our Gu Family. We have a complete sea chart in our Family."
Saying this, Gu Yan took out an ancient scroll and handed it to Lin Dong.
"Thank you," Lin Dong said, taking the sea chart. He scanned it with his Mental Energy but did not find the location of the Ancestor Symbol, and a hint of disappointment appeared in his eyes.
Young Master Lin then said, "You must also be going to contend for the life profound spirit fruit. My brother and I are new here and unfamiliar with the routes. I wonder if we could travel with you?"
"It would be our honor," Gu Yan quickly said upon hearing Young Master Lin's words.
Having witnessed the strength of Young Master Lin and Lin Dong, Gu Yan adopted a very humble attitude in front of them.
Young Master Lin smiled and said, "If there are extra life profound spirit fruits, I can help you obtain one. In return, the Gu Family will provide us with a complete sea chart. How does that sound?"
The sea chart was one aspect; what Young Master Lin valued more was the matter of the Honghuang Pagoda.
Once they arrived at the Gu Family, the Gu Family members would surely invite them to be external aid, and then they could naturally mention the quota to enter the Honghuang Pagoda. The Honghuang Pagoda was not of much use to Young Master Lin; the most important thing was that it could help the Ancestral Stone Spirit recover.
As for the life profound spirit fruit, compared to that, it was nothing significant.
Gu Yan's face immediately brightened upon hearing Young Master Lin's words. "Young Master Lin's great kindness, Gu Yan is eternally grateful! Young Master Lin, rest assured, once we reach the Gu Family, we will immediately present the complete sea chart with both hands."
"Haha, there's no need for pleasantries. Let's continue on our way," Young Master Lin said with a slight smile.
Gu Yan naturally had no objections to this.
Thus, for the rest of the journey, Young Master Lin and Lin Dong traveled with the Gu Family's convoy.
Everyone in the Gu Family treated Young Master Lin and Lin Dong with great courtesy, even respect.
After all, they had all witnessed the strength of Young Master Lin and Lin Dong with their own eyes.
As the convoy gradually approached the depths of Xuanling Island, the number of various groups appearing around them also began to increase.
When they arrived at the foot of Xuanling Mountain, many people had already gathered there, and they all seemed to possess considerable strength.
Their group was quite large, so their appearance immediately attracted many gazes.
"Oh? The Gu Family is here too?"
"Is that Gu Yan leading them? I heard she's already halfway into the Life Profound Realm. She's probably here to snatch the life profound spirit fruit and use it to Breakthrough to the Life Profound Realm, right?"
"Hehe, that won't be easy. Who here isn't eyeing the life profound spirit fruit covetously?"
"Indeed, although Gu Yan's strength is decent, she's still a bit lacking. It would be more like it if Gu Yuntian came!"
"..."
Hearing the many whispers around her, Gu Yan's cold and beautiful face showed no fluctuations. Her eyes slowly swept around, then her delicate brows furrowed slightly.
It seems that there are indeed many powerful individuals from various factions who have come for the life profound spirit fruit this time... Young Master Lin and Lin Dong also emerged from the carriage at this time, their eyes scanning their surroundings.
A moment later, Lin Dong's eyes narrowed slightly, and he softly said, "There are truly many powerful individuals here. If this were in the Eastern Xuan Region, even among the younger generation of the Eight Super Sects, very few could compare to them..."
Young Master Lin smiled faintly and said, "But in the Eastern Xuan Region, there are my brother and I."
Lin Dong scratched his head upon hearing this, somewhat embarrassed, "Compared to Brother Lin Fan, I am far behind."
At this moment, Gu Yan, who was beside them, introduced to Young Master Lin and Lin Dong, "The people in the northwest direction are from the Haiyun Sect. Their leader is Han Tao, the top young expert of the Haiyun Sect, and his strength has reached the Half-step Life Profound Realm."
"In the southwest direction... there's another person who's a bit troublesome," Lin Dong nodded slightly, then turned his gaze to the southwest and said softly.
Young Master Lin followed Lin Dong's gaze and saw a gray-robed figure sitting quietly on a large rock.
There were no other figures around him, indicating he was alone. Such a lone wolf daring to come here to contend for the life profound spirit fruit with everyone else was clearly not to be underestimated.
Gu Yan looked at the gray-robed man and said with a solemn expression, "That is the one-armed Mo Zhan. He hasn't joined any force, but he has a considerable reputation in the Tianfeng Sea Region. He has also reached the Half-step Life Profound Realm."
"It is said that he once exchanged blows with a powerhouse at the Early Stage of Life Profound Realm, and not only did he escape successfully, but he also injured the opponent..."
"That's not bad," Young Master Lin said with a casual smile.
Afterward, Gu Yan introduced other prominent figures, such as the Black Dragon Bandits, to Young Master Lin and Lin Dong.
"This Xuanling Mountain is covered in poisonous miasma, so we must wait until noon before we can enter... Once we enter Xuanling Mountain, the contention for the life profound spirit fruit will officially begin..."
After introducing some of the more powerful figures, Gu Yan looked at the towering mountain and reminded Young Master Lin and Lin Dong.
Young Master Lin and Lin Dong exchanged glances and nodded slightly.
Then, everyone quietly waited for the time to arrive... (End of chapter)
