With the end of the battle, the atmosphere seemed to become somewhat awkward. (Win Q-Coins)
Looking at the girl in front of him, Wang Chen gave a slight bitter smile. During the battle, she had been decisive and fierce, but now she appeared delicate and gentle!
Her face was slightly flushed, and he couldn't tell what she was thinking.
"Alright, let's go see what we can find!" After taking a deep breath and resting for a moment, his body gradually felt more comfortable, and Wang Chen said to the girl.
"Oh... okay... okay!" Hearing Wang Chen's words, the girl was taken aback, then quickly lowered her head and hurriedly replied.
Her heartbeat quickened again, and at this moment, she felt her mind go blank, as if she had lost her ability to think.
Walking behind Wang Chen, she looked at his back and a faint smile appeared at the corners of her mouth.
"Clear Spirit Grass!" At the edge of the cave, Wang Chen let out a long breath, satisfied with himself.
If it weren't for this Clear Spirit Grass, he might not have taken such a great risk, but the effort had finally paid off.
He found a total of three Clear Spirit Grass plants, which would help Ling Zhan recover significantly. No wonder Ling Zhan was excited deep down.
"Do you need Clear Spirit Grass?" Seeing Wang Chen start to pick the Clear Spirit Grass, the girl asked in confusion.
Although Clear Spirit Grass is rare and expensive, and considered a precious herb, its uses are limited, and ordinary people rarely need it, so it often seems to have a name but no real use.
Such things can still be found in the Yin Feng Valley, but even if you have them, finding a buyer seems to be no easy task.
Wang Chen merely nodded slightly in response to the girl's question, fully focusing on the Clear Spirit Grass. He felt a bit excited, considering this an unexpected gain.
Perhaps for others, Clear Spirit Grass is a marginal existence, but for those who have reached a certain level, it is still very necessary. Especially after intense battles when the soul is damaged, Clear Spirit Grass is needed for recovery, which is the main reason for its high price. Otherwise, it would be ignored by everyone.
For Wang Chen, Clear Spirit Grass is an extremely important item. For Ling Zhan, it is the best supplement and recovery herb.
The girl watched Wang Chen carefully collect the Clear Spirit Grass, a hint of confusion and curiosity flashing in her eyes. At this moment, Wang Chen seemed extremely calm, a stark contrast to his wild fighting style earlier.
Finally, after Wang Chen had collected all three Clear Spirit Grass plants, the two of them walked into the cave.
The cave was dim and gave a sense of death, with a bone-chilling cold.
Following the cave, they walked about ten meters and reached the bottom. What appeared before them was a subterranean world filled with stalactites. Looking around, the milky white stalactites stretched endlessly across the cave ceiling, emitting a pale white light that drove away the darkness. Stalactites grew everywhere, hanging from the cave ceiling, some even reaching several meters in length. Occasionally, drops of white liquid would fall, splashing on the ground and forming milky white puddles.
"Stalactite Liquid!" Seeing this, the girl's mouth opened slightly in surprise.
Stalactite Liquid, also known as stalactite fluid, is a sacred medicine formed by the absorption of spiritual energy over millions of years. For ordinary people, it is an absolute holy object. Common injuries can be completely healed in a short time with Stalactite Liquid.
More importantly, when martial artists encounter bottlenecks and find it difficult to break through, Stalactite Liquid can provide significant help. During the breakthrough process, when the meridians cannot withstand the massive true energy, Stalactite Liquid can protect the meridians. Or when one is about to go into a state of madness, Stalactite Liquid can help pull the practitioner back from the brink.
In the martial arts world, it is a highly coveted item.
Such a holy object cannot be formed without millions of years of accumulation. Wang Chen was also greatly surprised to find it here.
On the ground, a small puddle about the size of a small bowl was filled with milky white Stalactite Liquid, making both of their hearts race.
"According to our previous agreement, I get three and you get seven. You go first!" However, Wang Chen quickly calmed down. Thinking about the battle, the girl had discovered the white ape first and played a crucial role in the fight. Without her restraint, he would not have been able to kill the white ape.
Moreover, the girl had already mentioned the 30-70 split during the battle, so Wang Chen did not act greedily.
"This... this isn't right. The white ape was killed by you, so you should get seven and I get three!" Hearing Wang Chen's words, the girl quickly said.
Without Wang Chen's appearance, she might have already been killed, and there would be no way for her to obtain these items!
At the same time, she was even more curious about Wang Chen. An ordinary person might have already attacked her from behind upon seeing such a treasure, but Wang Chen was making a concession. This unintentional act of Wang Chen's established a new position in the girl's heart.
Wang Chen was also slightly surprised by the girl's words, not expecting her to be unaffected by the treasure! He looked at her with a hint of surprise.
Taking a deep breath and pondering for a moment, Wang Chen said again, "Fifty-fifty, let's be fair, it's settled!" Without waiting for the girl's response, he took out a small jade bottle that Ling Zhan had secretly placed in his pocket and began to collect the Stalactite Liquid.
Like the water in a cold pond, the milky white Stalactite Liquid was extremely thick, resembling pine sap, sticky and continuous.
The puddle of Stalactite Liquid was divided into four bottles. He put two bottles in his pocket and handed the other two to the girl.
"Then... then I won't be polite! Hehe, thank you so much today!" Taking the small jade bottle, the girl's eyes flashed with a smile, and she said sweetly.
After collecting the Stalactite Liquid, Wang Chen let out a long breath, feeling a bit regretful. It would take hundreds or even thousands of years for such Stalactite Liquid to form again!
Outside the cave, the sky had gradually turned dark, with a hint of depth. In the distance, the white ape's body had completely lost its life, and it was likely that by tonight, it would be completely devoured by the nocturnal beasts, who would not miss such a delicious meal.
"We should go back!" Looking at the sky, Wang Chen sighed.
"Yes, we should go back, or it will be dangerous if nocturnal beasts appear!" As everything settled, the girl gradually relaxed, speaking in a playful tone to Wang Chen.
The two did not walk together because the girl said she had companions, so Wang Chen decided to leave first!
"Do you usually train around here?" Seeing Wang Chen about to leave, the girl asked with a hint of reluctance.
"Unless something unexpected happens, I will train around here. If you want to plunder, you can come anytime!" His steps paused, and Wang Chen said in a deep voice, his tone slightly cold.
"I... I... I didn't say I wanted to plunder you!" The sudden change in tone made the girl a bit flustered, and she said in a委屈 tone.
She didn't expect her question to cause such a reaction from Wang Chen.
"I'll go first. In the future, don't rashly attack someone unless you know their strength. Not every time will you have such good luck!" A bitter smile flashed across his face, and Wang Chen secretly laughed. Perhaps he had been in the Starlight Sect for too long, getting used to the plundering life and treating everyone as a potential opponent, which led to this reaction.
"Oh, I... I understand!" Sensing the change in Wang Chen's tone, the girl's heart eased, and she pouted in dissatisfaction.
Watching Wang Chen's figure blend into the night, she suddenly realized that they had spent the afternoon together without knowing each other's names. Thinking of this, she quickly called out, "I'm Liu Xinyan, what about you?"
However, unfortunately, she did not get a response from Wang Chen.
Pouting and frowning, the girl couldn't help but complain.
"A first-stage True Martial Artist? Coming here alone to train, he's quite an interesting person. He didn't even want the white ape's materials, which are worth fifteen points! But, I wonder if we'll meet again!" Then, as if thinking of something, the girl couldn't help but sigh, staring at the place where the figure had disappeared for a long time.
Ahead, Wang Chen, who had left the dangerous area, relaxed a bit. Touching the items in his pocket, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. Today's harvest was abundant: three Clear Spirit Grass plants and Stalactite Liquid, which was an unexpected gain.
As for the points from the white ape's body, he didn't take them, leaving them directly for the girl!
"Liu Xinyan?" Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Wang Chen's face. This name seemed familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere. A fifth-stage True Martial Artist, with absolute strength, she must be one of the top ten on the Starlight List!
