“This is… a medicinal pill?”
Qing Xue was a little surprised as she held the round emerald-green medicinal pill in her hand. She immediately raised her head to look at Gu Xi, and her beautiful eyes seemed to be deep in thought.
“You recognize this thing?”
Gu Xi was stunned for a moment before he coughed softly.
Although medicinal pills were a household name in the Eastern Continent, it was not the case in the Southern Continent. Just like the spirit medicine essence here, it was also rarely seen in the Eastern Continent.
“I once saw it by chance in an ancient book, but this thing doesn’t seem to belong to us. Could it be…” Qing Xue smiled meaningfully, but did not continue to ask.
“It was a coincidence, a fluke.” Gu Xi’s expression did not change as he laughed.
Qing Xue retracted her gaze and swallowed the medicinal pill in her hand.
“What are you talking about? What medicine is it?”
Listening to their conversation, Su Lian could not help but ask.
Gu Xi glanced at her indifferently and waved his hand, “It has nothing to do with you.”
Hearing this, Su Lian could not help but grit her teeth and stomp her feet in anger.
If it was not for Gu Xi’s powerful strength now, if it was anyone else who dared to speak to her like this, they would have long been dead.
......
For a moment, the few of them fell into silence.
“It’s about time. Let’s go.” Not long after, Qing Xue broke the silence.
“She recovered so quickly?” Su Lian asked with a surprised look.
Although Qing Xue’s injuries were not serious, according to her estimation, it would take at least a few hours to recover. Now, it only took an hour.
“Could it be because of this fellow?” Su Lian’s doubtful eyes landed on Gu Xi after she thought about it.
Gu Xi did not notice this slight change in Su Lian. He stood up and nodded. Immediately, his eyes looked at the half-destroyed stone door as he softly said, “In that case, let us prepare to set off.”
Qing Xue nodded. Immediately, the few people from the glazed tile sect stood up and set off.
Seeing that Gu Xi and the others were the first to take action, the other people present also stood up and took action. Although most of them had yet to complete their recovery, they did not wish for others to seize the initiative.
After the battle with the stone gate formation array, everyone clearly understood in their hearts that this Secret Realm was definitely not an ordinary Secret Realm. The things within it were definitely extremely precious!
It could even be said that taking one treasure was not a wasted trip. If they took two more treasures, they would be able to earn a lot of money. At this moment, everyone decided to put the bullsh*t points ranking to the back of their minds.
…
On the other side, outside the planar battlefield.
On the huge square, other than the sect leader of the Daluo sect, Pei Tai’an, there were also many figures who looked like Immortals. They were the sect leaders or elders of the various sects and influences.
Wu Nanshan, who was dressed in a white robe, was also among them.
Not far away, the valley leader of the Raging Fire Valley, Song Zheng, laughed out loud and said, “Hahaha, Valley Master Wu, now that the competition is nearing its end, I still have not seen the name of your Medicine King Valley in the top ten rankings!”
His red hair fluttered in the wind. Even during their casual conversation, some fire element spiritual power was jumping around his body. It could be seen that his attainments in the fire element were extremely deep.
Upon hearing these words, Wu Nanshan could not help but frown. A trace of annoyance flashed across his face, but his expression quickly returned to normal. He chuckled and said, “The competition is not over yet, right? Valley Master Song, Don’t be so sure. In the end, it might not even be a matter of who will be the victor.”
Although he said this, Wu Nanshan was still extremely worried in his heart.
He had originally thought that with Gu Xi leading the team, Medicine King Valley might have a chance to fight for the championship in this Spirit-chasing Competition. Even if it was not enough, it should not be a big problem for them to be in the top three or top five, but now, there was no sign of anyone in the top ten.
In the past, Wu Nanshan would not come personally for the grand competition. The main reason was that he did not want to lose face in front of everyone. Now, he made an exception to come personally this time because of Gu Xi. He did not expect that this result would still be the same as in the past.
This could not help but make him slightly disappointed with Gu Xi.
“Oh? From what you said, it seems that valley master Wu is very confident in this grand competition!” Pei Tai’an chuckled and narrowed his eyes.
“Of course. In any case, it won’t be worse than in the past.” Wu Nanshan spoke indifferently and pretended not to care.
Hearing this, Pei Tai’an grinned with a fake smile. However, his mind could not help but recall Gu Xi’s figure that day.
He could be sure that Wu Nanshan’s confidence was definitely from that kid!
“To be able to make that old Fart Wu Nanshan personally appear, and to have such great confidence, it seems that that Kid’s strength is indeed extraordinary.”
Pei Tai’an thought to himself. However, at this moment, he was already powerless. Now, he could only look at the performance of his own disciples.
When he regained his senses, he raised his head and looked at the light screen in front of him.
The Daluo Sect’s points were still in eighth place.
This made him frown involuntarily.
If they did not increase their points, they might not even be able to squeeze into the top three this time.
As the host sect of the competition, if they didn’t make it into the top three, they might even fall out of the top ten. At that time, they would lose a lot of face.
Looking at the closed entrance of the planar battlefield, Pei Tai’an muttered, “All of you, put in more effort!”
…
In the Secret Realm of the planar battlefield.
The originally wide passage had become narrower. It had shrunk from a few hundred feet to less than one hundred feet. This might not be considered narrow in normal circumstances, but now that there were so many people gathered, it couldn’t help but feel a little crowded.
Even so, the various factions tried their best to maintain a safe distance between each other. Moreover, this path was still changing.
“If this path continues to be narrow, once there are any traps, I’m afraid we won’t be able to hide even if we want to,” Su Lian, who was walking in the front, glanced around and said worriedly.
“Be careful. If anything happens, we’ll retreat first,” Qing Xue said warily, and the Liuli Sect disciples behind her responded one after another.
As the Senior Sister with the highest seniority on the team, she had the obligation to ensure their safety.
Compared to the treasures in the Secret Realm, in her opinion, the lives of her Junior Sister and the others were more important. After all, no matter how good the treasures were, it would be useless if no one was alive to use them.
Gu Xi did not speak. He quietly walked in the middle of the group. However, ever since they entered this place, his spiritual sense had been spread out. He could detect the slightest movement.
However, what puzzled him was that they had been in here for almost two hours, but they had not encountered any traps or treasures.
