Chapter 223: Chaotic Battle!
Zhang Ping reacted quickly, aiming at a streak of light flying towards him and reaching out to grab it!
After a moment of resistance, the light in my hand disappeared, and a slender black plant root lay in my hand.
"Sea cucumber?" Zhang Ping recognized the spiritual object in his hand at a glance. Sea cucumber lives hundreds of meters underwater and is a spiritual object with a wide range of medicinal value. Because it lives in deep mud and absorbs the spiritual energy of the earth, it is often used by alchemists to refine pills that can improve cultivation. It can not only improve cultivation, but also has a slight effect on strengthening the body.
Zhang Ping smiled and put the sea cucumber into his spatial storage.
The others did not hesitate and all moved towards the gushing stream of light!
Looking up at the sky now, countless streaks of light appeared in the once dark world, streaking across the night sky like shooting stars.
Behind many shimmering tail wings followed several relatively dim lights, indicating that cultivators were flying and chasing after them.
"Hmph! Get out of my way, you brat!"
Zhang Ping quickly looked away, and then heard a loud shout.
Not far away, Zhang Zetian was also vying for spiritual items, but she and Gong Qing happened to be eyeing the same stream of light. The result was obvious: she was slapped away by Gong Qing!
It fell from the sky into the water.
The attendants who were with him rushed to his aid: "Young Master!"
"I'm fine!" With a whoosh, Zhang Zetian flew out again, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. Judging from his expression, the previous attack was just a warning and he hadn't really tried to kill him; otherwise, with his mid-stage Divine Realm strength, he would have been seriously injured.
Zhang Zetian's face was gloomy, and he had completely lost his previous arrogant and domineering demeanor.
With a shout, he led his attendants to chase after the other streaks of light.
Su Qingyu glanced over there before looking away, continuing to focus on capturing the spiritual objects.
Duan Yu and the two women did the same, except they acted very quickly, and once they succeeded, they didn't rush to strike. Instead, they kept their eyes fixed on the base of the waterspout.
After thoroughly assessing the situation, Zhang Ping decided to remain inactive and only target the closest glimmers of light.
His goal is the Sword Spirit Grass; he cannot afford to lose sight of the bigger picture for the sake of small gains.
"Waaah—"
A deep, rumbling roar erupted, stirring up towering waves that surfaced from beneath the water.
The head alone is ten meters in size.
"Black Whale." Zhang Ping stared at the large creature that had suddenly appeared.
At the same time, many flying demonic beasts appeared in the sky. They chased after the flowing light, and once they caught up, they opened their mouths and swallowed the spiritual creature.
Some demonic beasts would even ambush cultivators during the chase.
After all, the physical body of a cultivator is no less effective than a spiritual medicine for them.
Amid the smoke and fire of war, waterspout riots intensified suddenly in various places.
As the height and thickness increase, more spiritual objects are brought out, and the light becomes stronger!
Zhang Ping acquired many spiritual items, the most valuable of which was a piece of black star stone, which could be used as the main material for forging spiritual energy and was extremely expensive on the market.
During this time, a strange mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator chased the light and came to the vicinity, but was driven away by Duan Yu and his companions.
They would not allow other cultivators to set foot on this place. If Zhang Ping and the others had not consciously kept their distance, they would have been driven away by them.
Fifteen minutes later, the waterspout suddenly jerked abnormally, and three streams of light shining with dazzling brilliance flew out!
"nice one!"
Duan Yu's pupils contracted, and his figure immediately flew out!
"Hehe, I want this too!" Miao Yan was not to be outdone, and together with Miao Yu, they came out from the left and right, forming a pincer movement towards Duan Yu.
"My lord, please help me!"
Upon seeing this, Duan Yu shouted!
The four fought around the three streaks of light, and the fluctuations of the battle affected the light emanating from the three spiritual objects, revealing their true forms to everyone.
Zhang Ping, who had been somewhat hesitant, suddenly raised an eyebrow after seeing one of the items clearly.
"Sword Spirit Grass!"
"Great, it's Sword Spirit Grass!" Su Qingyu exclaimed in surprise, then took out several talismans from her storage bag and stuck them on her body.
The speed increased dramatically in an instant!
They joined the light chase.
Zhang Ping did the same, cautiously approaching the flowing light. None of them dared to directly snatch it.
Don't be fooled by the current fierce battle between Duan Yu and his three companions. If Zhang Ping gets too close, they would be willing to take turns eliminating the grasshopper trying to steal his food!
Zhang Ping was still hesitating, but the demon snake trapped in the water dragon swimming pool seized the opportunity.
Taking advantage of the fact that the nobles were engaged in battle, he managed to break free of his restraints and escape into the water.
At that moment, the Sword Spirit Grass was jolted hundreds of meters away by the shockwaves caused by the battle.
"An opportunity!" Just as Zhang Ping was about to make his move, a figure was faster than him!
It turned out to be Su Qingyu. She anticipated the impact of the battle and tried to seize Liuguang in advance!
"Little sister, it's not good to steal other people's things!"
Just as Su Qingyu was about to grab the Sword Spirit Grass, a female voice suddenly came from behind her, and the piercing killing intent made her heart skip a beat.
One palm strike! Ten meters of black mist spread out, and the next moment, Su Qingyu's figure flew backward!
Before he even hit the water, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
A palm strike from a mid-stage Divine Realm cultivator is not to be taken lightly!
Seeing this, Zhang Ping felt a chill in his heart.
However, we still need to obtain the Sword Spirit Grass.
The next moment, Miaoyan reached out to grab the Sword Spirit Grass, but was blocked by several water dragons converging.
"That wretched old man!"
With neither side able to gain the upper hand, Zhang Ping quietly approached, then vanished from his spot and reappeared near the Sword Spirit Grass.
He stretched out his right arm and grasped the sword spirit grass!
When Miao Yan and Gong Qing saw Zhang Ping suddenly appear, they were first taken aback, and then they attacked Zhang Ping at the same time!
A fierce force locked onto him, but Zhang Ping ignored it and disappeared from the spot again, constantly teleporting away into the distance!
"You brat, you're asking for death!" Gongqing exclaimed, filled with shock and rage.
He was furious that Zhang Ping, a mere early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, dared to snatch a spiritual item right in front of him, a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator! But amidst his surging anger, he was also somewhat alarmed.
The reason is simple: he couldn't understand the kid's teleportation technique.
Descriptions of teleportation do exist, and he even has a teleportation talisman in his storage bag, but most teleportations require preparation time or certain warning signs before activation.
The intervals between each use are also quite long. It's extremely rare to find someone like Zhang Ping who can pinpoint locations so precisely and use them continuously!
Miao Yan didn't react much. Seeing that Gong Qing had abandoned the other two spiritual objects to chase after him, she was happy to join her sister in attacking Duan Yu.
On the other side, Zhang Ping remained calm as he sensed the powerful aura approaching from behind. His mind was extremely composed.
A map of the surroundings appeared in his mind, and he deliberately chose a place where the waterspouts were not dense, and circled around it.
The nobles following behind were filled with murderous intent.
In a short while, the two were chasing and fleeing, running for dozens of kilometers.
Seeing that Zhang Ping's speed had not slowed down at all, and worried that something might go wrong if the time dragged on, Gongqing reluctantly took out a talisman and stuck it on his body.
"Swiftness Talisman, Speed Up!"
In an instant, his speed doubled!
In the blink of an eye, he caught up with Zhang Ping.
"Kid! Where do you think you're going?!"
