Chapter 1414 - Whirlwind
After a long while, they climbed over a ridge that was only a dozen meters tall, and a huge pit, which was extremely huge, finally entered the line of sight of Tang Huan, Lei Jia Yuan and the rest.
He had arrived at the Dark Nether Lake!
In the air above the lake, the enormous dark blue water pillar was quickly shrinking. In a mere blink of an eye, it was completely dried up by the Divine Moon sucking, and in the sky, the brilliant green l.u.s.ter began to dim immediately.
On the lakeside below the mountain ridge, there were b.a.l.l.s of green light, big and small. At the bottom of the dry lake, there were also spots of green light.
"Immortal gra.s.s!" Haha, so much immortal gra.s.s! "
"Ahhhh, those are all Dao stones, right?"
"We"re rich! We"ll be rich this time!" "I"m rich..."
"..."
Seeing this, Lei Jiayuan, Fang Xu and the others started talking incoherently, dancing nonstop. But after that moment, everyone"s voices paused, in the distant skies above, the brilliant green l.u.s.ter had already completely disappeared, and the green moon had once again drilled into the darkness.
The divine moon had disappeared!
The moonlight, which had been scattered down from the sky, illuminated the entire stretch of the world, causing it to darken once again. However, lumps of green l.u.s.ter flickered within the insides of the Dark Nether Lake, and from afar, it seemed as if the depths of the "Ghost Snake Valley" was covered by a sea of green stars.
Lei Jia Yuan and the rest were so excited their eyes were glowing green.
Every ball of green in the darkness represented a type of heavenly resource, whether it was immortal gra.s.s, immortal stones, or even iron crystals, or other precious objects.
"Next up, everyone has to be careful."
However, in the next moment, Tang Huan"s voice was like a bucket of cold water poured on everyone"s heads, "There must be a lot of Dark Underworld Ghost Snakes here, and the ones that are left here are definitely strong amongst the Ghost Snakes. That Ghost Snake Chief should have the strength comparable to Huang Ji, and might even be more powerful than that.
"There may be countless treasures here, but if I"m not careful, I might be unable to escape!"
"Therefore, when everyone collects heavenly materials, you need to pay attention to your surroundings at all times. If anything strange happens, you have to be alerted immediately. The most important thing is, do not scatter too far. Otherwise, even if "Ghost Shadow Snake" approaches, I might not be able to detect it ahead of time. "
Tang Huan"s face was gloomy, his tone solemn.
At this time, everyone was a little too pleased with themselves, and Tang Huan had no choice but to remind them. Of course, if someone turned a deaf ear to his words, he would not act as a savior.
"Understood!"
Lei Jia Yuan, Fang Xu and the rest were all in a cold state of mind as they solemnly nodded their heads. The fervor in their hearts gradually cooled down.
Just as Tang Huan had said, even though there were countless treasures by the side of the Dark Nether Lake, there were similarly huge hidden dangers. For the time being, there were not many Heavenly Beasts and Cultivators who could break through the Ghost Snakes" blockade, but those Ghost Snakes would not be able to hold them off for long. There was no need for that. As long as there were two or three Huang Ji Realm warriors, it would be difficult to deal with them.
Once they lost their minds to these treasures, they wouldn"t be too far away from death.
"Alright, let"s go!"
Tang Huan waved his hand, and everyone immediately jumped down from the mountain ridge, and then started moving quickly by the side of the Dark Nether Lake.
With Tang Huan"s reminder, everyone was paying close attention to their surroundings to see what was happening. Furthermore, they did not move more than ten meters away from Tang Huan. Regardless of whether it was immortal gra.s.ses, Dao stones, or other treasures, no one had the time to check them. They were all kept in their spatial rings.
Everyone knew very well that the most suitable time to collect heavenly materials and treasures was only around an hour. After this period of time, the divine moonlight on the surface of heavenly materials like immortal herbs and dao stones would disappear, and at that time, the collection efficiency of heavenly materials would be greatly reduced.
The crowd moved along the banks of the Dark Nether Lake like a whirlwind. Wherever they pa.s.sed, things that flickered with a green light were swept away.
"Something"s wrong!"
Tang Huan suddenly stopped his steps, and a low voice sounded out right after.
Everyone subconsciously stopped, following Tang Huan"s gaze, they saw those s.h.i.+ning green dots disappearing one after another a thousand meters away from Tang Huan.
Everyone was slightly alarmed and immediately realized what was going on.
In that area, there would definitely be cultivators collecting all sorts of heavenly resources, or Heavenly Beasts devouring immortal herbs. Furthermore, the cultivators or Heavenly Beasts would have already discovered their presence, because the green light dots were disappearing in the direction of them at an extremely fast speed.
Everyone that was originally scattered over a dozen metres away immediately gathered beside Tang Huan, their eyes filled with vigilance.
"Brother Tang, should we leave …" Lei Jia Yuan could not help but whisper. At this time, the commotion was already hundreds of meters away. With the help of the l.u.s.ter of the immortal gra.s.s, it was possible to tell that it was a group of cultivators. There were roughly forty to fifty of them, three times the number.
"Let"s s.h.i.+ft direction and see if they follow us or not."
Tang Huan said in a heavy voice.
Thus, everyone began to move to the right front. However, with their sudden movement, the group of cultivators also changed their direction, still heading towards them. It had only been a short period of time, but the distance between them was even closer. The situation over there had become even clearer to everyone.
"Sure enough, they are here for us."
"We have to be careful!"
"..."
Lei Jia Yuan, Fang Xu and the rest were all furious and worried.
After all, the difference in numbers between the two sides was just too great. There were at least forty to fifty people there, and they only had a dozen or so people on their side. However, since they were able to break through the tight seal of the "Ghost Shadow Snakes" so quickly and arrive at the banks of the Dark Nether Lake, there was bound to be experts within the group.
"Don"t worry, if we really plan on escaping, they might not have the chance to chase us!" Tang Huan sneered, a bit of coldness flas.h.i.+ng through his eyes.
"Halt!"
Hearing Tang Huan"s words, everyone was slightly stunned, but before they could even ask, a loud shout had already sounded out, it was already over ten figures that were over ten meters away. All of them had an aggressive look, their legs moved as though they were flying, while the other thirty odd people were collecting the treasures on the ground while approaching them.
"Hand over the immortal herbs and Dao Stones you"ve collected and I"ll let you off the hook. Otherwise, I"m afraid you guys will have a hard time walking down the banks of the Dark Nether Lake!"
Another shout rang out.
Using the l.u.s.ter of the immortal gra.s.s, its appearance could be vaguely seen. It was actually a tall and st.u.r.dy man with a fierce-looking face, carrying a gigantic blade that was pitch black on his shoulder, with a sinister smile on his face. He looked at Tang Huan, Lei Jia Yuan and the others as if he was looking at a group of fish that could be cut at any man.
