After its claws were blocked by the clay puppet, the Blazing Flame Fire Sword carried a devastating aura and severed the Lion Crocodile Demon's tail. Lu Xiaoteng reached out with one hand and drew the gray box containing the seven-night Netherancient flower into his hand. He could feel a powerful suction force emanating from the box, coming from the black mirror. However, Lu Xiaoteng sneered, the gray box vanished in a flash, and entered his storage bag, completely severing the mysterious connection between the gray box and the black mirror.

On the other side of the Black Mirror, a green armored figure with a long green cloak stood. In his skull-like eye sockets, purple flames flickered erratically. The Green Armored Skeleton was filled with rage, and with a slap of his hand, a hill over ten meters tall beside him turned into dust. But this was not enough to vent his anger. Although the kid in front of him surprised him with his rapidly increasing strength every time they met, compared to him, he was still pathetically weak. But it was this weak human who repeatedly ruined his plans. This Seven Nights Gloom Ancient Flower was different from ordinary varieties; it also had great use for him. He had discovered it by chance and arranged the Lion-Crocodile Demon, Green-Lioned Beast, and three skull heads as his subordinates. They could absorb a part of the power from the Seven Nights Gloom Ancient Flower, making their strength far greater than five cultivators at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage. But who would have thought that these six Foundation Establishment cultivators who arrived here, although not very powerful in cultivation, all had three with Yuan Dan artifacts Could it be that in the human race, such precious things as Yuan Dan artifacts were already commonBecause the passage was unstable, he could only send a tiny part of his power over, and it couldn't reach across. The Green Armored Skeleton was helpless, watching helplessly as what he desired fell into the hands of others. However, there was still a chance at this moment. The smoke transformed from the skull heads had already reached Lu Xia Tian's protective barrier. At such close range, there was no defense against it. As long as the skull head killed this annoying Lu Xia Tian, the troublesome thunder-attribute cultivator would also be injured, and it would be possible to deal with these few people in front of him.

"What" The green-armored skeleton in the mirror paled instantly. Although the smoke that had transformed into a skull was already invading Lu Xiaoteng's body, his body faintly emitted a red glow with a hint of gold. The crimson scales under his clothes were visible, blocking the smoke outside.

The skull was extremely greedy for the powerful flesh and blood within Lu Xia Tian's body, but it was also very anxious. The other party's defenses were too strong, he couldn't get in at all.

Lu Xia Tian wasn't quite sure about this change either, he just attributed it to the defensive power of the Ta Hao Battle Body. It seemed that the defense of the Ta Hao Battle Body wasn't just limited to those magical weapons and swords, it also had such an effect against attacks from within the ghost soul.

At this time, with Luo Qian's help, Su Qing recovered as such, driving the gray mist invading her body out. She and Luo Qian simultaneously saw the gray mist forced back by Lu Xia Tian, both were astonished, yet they couldn't detect anything unusual about Lu Xia Tian. Naturally, they were unaware of the intricate relationship involved.

The smoke that transformed into a skull was helpless against itself. Lu Xia Tian was overjoyed and, without any concern, pushed the power of the Chiyan Lihuo Sword to its peak. The raging flames were an extremely yang fire ignited by his magical energy, which had some restraining effect on evil spirits. It was also triggered from the Dan Yuan magic weapon. The smoke skull, burned by the flames on the Chiyan Lihuo Sword, cried out in pain. In the blink of an eye, the gray mist thinned considerably.

The gray mist skeleton didn't seem as ferocious as before. Was it because the Seven Night Nether Ancient Flower had been taken away Lu Xiaoteng had some guesses in his mind, this was the only way to explain it. Although the Ghost Clan was a bit troublesome and far more powerful than ordinary cultivators of the same rank, it was still somewhat unconvincing that they could easily crush them with the Dan Yuan artifacts.

"These damn skeletons have weakened!" Soon, both Su Qing and Luo Qian, who were also very experienced in combat, noticed the change before them. They rallied their spirits and, together with Lu Xia Tian, attacked the few skeletons. Because they had become phantoms and no longer possessed the Seven Nights Ghost Flower, the three individuals wielding the Dan Yuan artifacts, plus Luo Qian's thunderous power, quickly made progress. After Luo Qian used his thunder spear to kill a gray mist skull, Lu Xia Tian also killed one with his Blazing Flame Sword. The remaining skeleton was then strangled to death by Su Qing's Fish Scale Golden Whip.

A bizarre encounter resulted in losses for both parties. Besides Lu Xia Tian who obtained the Seven Nights Nether Ancient Flower, others fought fiercely and suffered considerable losses.

As the black mirror vanished, several skeletal figures were slain. The surrounding sinister energy disappeared instantly, leaving everything clean and clear. A wave of surprise washed over everyone. Where the black mirror had been, a faint light appeared. Upon closer inspection, they discovered a crack that led to a surprisingly spacious realm, connecting to another place entirely. Previously, everyone believed this place was an absolute wasteland. After the black mirror disappeared, this hidden truth was revealed, accompanied by a wave of rich spiritual energy.

"Come on, let's go take a look. What is this place" Su Qing's eyes flashed, and before anyone could reply, she took a few steps and passed through the narrow passage from the crack.

Hu Ruining looked at Lu Xiaitian and Luo Qian with consulting eyes. Lu Xiaitian just pretended not to see him, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, and he stepped up to follow closely behind.

Through the crack, the world before my eyes suddenly opened up, a vast and clear expanse of sky. The blue sky was dotted with white clouds, and the grass below was lush and green.

"Don't forget we still have the task of patrolling for cultivators from other realms near Xuanye City. It took us a considerable amount of time traveling, and now we're almost there. Should we go to the city first to report" Hu Ruining suggested.

"What's there to report Gong Men only said to come to Xuan Ye City. When the time comes, we just need to kill a few more alien cultivators' heads and that will be enough to fulfill our duty. We finally came to this mysterious place, so how could we return empty-handed" Su Qing pouted.

But

"It's nothing to write home about, whether you go or not is up to you. Anyway, I'm not going."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Saying that, Su Qing looked at Luo Qian and Lu Xiaoxiao. Seeing the two nod slightly, she smiled with delight. Compared to outsiders, having these two people's support was enough.

"Alright, then I'll follow Sister Su and the two senior brothers' orders." Hu Ruining said helplessly.

Although Lu Xiaoteng was following Su Qing, he secretly noticed that a hint of surprise flashed across Su Qing's face after seeing the scene before them. Thinking about what Su Hongtao had said before leaving Lingxiao Palace, Lu Xiaoteng's heart skipped a beat. Could it be Lu Xiaoteng couldn't confirm his guess, but overthinking was useless. Originally, he had made up his mind to follow Su Qing when they came together this time. If his guess was right, Su Qing should have discovered clues related to the Condensing Golden Fruit. Thinking about the Condensing Golden Fruit, Lu Xiaoteng also felt an unexplainable excitement in his heart. It seemed that this time he had stumbled upon something good, despite having fought with a few skulls.

A few people swooped through the air for a while, occasionally seeing wild beasts running on the ground, or some low-level spirit beasts. With their current strength, even ordinary fourth-order monsters wouldn't be of much interest. It was just that this place was a bit strange. After turning around in the vicinity for several days, they had seen many mountains and rivers, and there were also some low-level spirits, but they hadn't found anything too valuable.

Thus, Xia Ruining first became impatient and said in a deep voice, "This time I'm not here for sightseeing. I need to go to Xuan Ye City and meet with my fellow disciples from the Immortal Palace. If you few want to go back later, then please excuse me.

"Talk is cheap, if you want to leave, just go. Who wants to keep someone who doesn't want to stay"

Su Qing crossed her arms, too lazy to pay attention to Xia Ruining. Luo Qian was the one speaking. He cared about Ruining's last glance at Lu Xiaotian, discovering that Lu Xiaotian was watching him with a playful expression, as if waiting to see his joke. As for Lu Xiaotian, as long as he followed Su Qing, whether he truly went to Xuan Ye City didn't matter. It turned out that among these people, he had already become an isolated one. Ruining couldn't help but feel annoyed and, with a sullen face, turned around and flew away without saying a word.

“I knew you two would support me.” Seeing Xia Ruining walk away in a huff, Su Qing beamed with delight.

"No need to dwell on that. Since the idle person has already left, we don't have to keep circling around here anymore, right" Lu Xia Tian turned his inquiring gaze towards Su Qing.

“How did you see through it” Not only was Luo Qian’s face full of question, but Su Qing herself was even more surprised. She originally thought she had done a good enough job, but she didn't expect Lu Xiaoteng to have seen through it long ago.

“Wow, I didn’t expect that there would actually be such a thing.” Lu Xia Tian shrugged.

“You’re really cunning,” Su Qing didn’t expect Lu Xiaoteng to be deceiving her, but there was no trace of anger on her face, instead, she showed a hint of admiration. What Lu Xiaoteng had shown her wasn’t just his strength, but the unique quality of being intelligent and composed, that truly captivated people. Among the cultivators, there were many who relied on their handsome appearances, those who exuded an air of jade-like beauty and dashing charm, but Su Qing had seen too many people with such outward beauty. She harbored a deep disgust for those who thought they could get close to her by relying on their looks.

“I couldn't tell you before because there were outsiders present. Now that they’re dead or gone, I won't keep it from you two. This trip is for the Golden Condensation Fruit. But after we find it, I will prioritize taking it. If we find more than three, the extra ones are mine. You two will help me with all your strength. Do you have a problem with that” Su Qing stared intently at the two of them.

"Whatever my senior sister says, I'll do." Luo Qian heard the news about the Condensed Gold Fruit and was first taken aback, then said naturally.

"No problem." Lu Xia Tian thought to himself, as expected. It was just that for such an important matter, Su Qing had actually told the two of them everything openly and honestly. It seemed she placed absolute trust in both of them.

"That's good, let's go." Su Qing breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, a happy smile lighting up her face. Luo Qian's thoughts were crystal clear to her. He may appear aloof and proud, but he was actually loyal and honest, not a malicious person at heart. She had nothing but praise for him. In contrast, Lu Xiaottian, who most people saw as ordinary and unassuming, had a more complex mind. However, Su Qing also trusted Lu Xiaottian. As long as he agreed, he would never go back on his word. For ordinary matters, Su Qing wouldn't need such solemn assurances from the two of them. But since this concerned the Golden Condensing Fruit, her grandfather Su Hongtao had stressed the importance repeatedly. So, Su Qing had taken precautions beforehand.

After Xia Ruining left, the atmosphere among the three became much more harmonious. Although Luo Qian still had some resistance towards Lu Xiaotian, this could be considered an internal conflict. Once facing external enemies, with their multiple battles together and being from the same sect, their relationship naturally became unbreakable. Moreover, the cultivation level of the three was already quite high, each possessing a Dan Yuan magic weapon. Even ordinary Foundation Establishment ninth-layer cultivators were far from their opponents. As for Su Qing and Luo Qian, they knew that Lu Xiaotian also had a sixth-rank peak earth-type puppet in his hand, with powerful attacks and extremely abnormal defensive capabilities. Within the Foundation Establishment period, it was probably difficult to find an opponent. Even the previous Ghost King peak skeleton hadn't escaped being chased by the Earth Puppet.

Although their numbers were a little less, Su Qing and Luo Qian were quite confident. Compared to when they had first received an outer patrol mission as Foundation Establishment cultivators at the very first level, their mindset was completely different.

Just as the three of them had left the spot, a familiar shadow returned like a phantom. Sensing the faint magical fluctuations in the air, the shadow stood still, revealing the face that belonged to Xia Rening who had previously made excuses to leave.

“As soon as I left, this little rascal started laughing and talking with the two boys. They were obviously plotting something. Let's follow them and see what these guys are up to. If they're after some treasure, I'll bring more people and ambush them. If they're just out for a stroll, once my men arrive, we'll set a trap and surround them, taking the magic artifacts from them. Not only will I have accomplished a great feat, but it'll also be a fortune.” Xia Ruining’s greed was blatant on his face. With no one around, there was no need to hide anything. Xia Ruining made an inconspicuous signal in place, looking like ordinary wild boar tracks left in soft grass after running through. Even if someone saw it, they would likely not find anything unusual.

Summer Ning didn't know that after Su Qing and the others left, Lu Xiaotien would occasionally glance back unintentionally.

"Lu Shidi, what are you looking at behind you" Su Qing had been paying attention to Lu Xiaoteng anyway, so she naturally noticed his actions.

"It's nothing, I just think Xia Ruining's actions before were a bit strange." Lu Xia Tian said nonchalantly.

“What’s so strange about it You just like to be suspicious. By the way, I remember a few years ago, when we fought against cultivators from other realms, you said before leaving that I should be careful of Senior Brother Xun, and then left with such a strange remark. Later, Senior Brother Xun didn’t do anything to us.” Su Qing pouted and said.

This is what you asked for:

“Not necessarily. While Xun Shixiong hasn't done anything to us, I heard from some Shixiongs who went on missions with him that several of them met a terrible end. According to their descriptions, they died just like Song Hu, clearly killed by the same person.” Luo Qian spoke solemnly, looking at Lu Xiaodao. “Have you noticed something All those who died were from our Gongmen. If there's truly something amiss, it should be dealt with as soon as possible.”
