Chapter 376: Chapter 367: Divine Spring?!

"Murder for treasure?"

Upon hearing Qin Yue’s words, Mo Wangchen also reacted. He squinted his eyes and looked towards Ye Qian.

"Be careful later and be wary of this person," Mo Wangchen said.

Everyone nodded in agreement. Although they wouldn’t start trouble, they naturally weren’t afraid to respond if someone else provoked them. Besides, had it not been for Mo Wangchen’s words just now, some of them might already have been annihilated by the Ancient Alien Species.

Yu Zhi also shifted his gaze from Ye Qian and glanced at Mo Wangchen again, clearly recognizing Ye Qian’s motives as well. He seemed to want to say something, but in the end, he didn’t speak.

"Let’s go!"

The group continued onward, becoming more cautious as they ventured deeper. Although there were no more Ancient Alien Species attacks here, the Fallen Immortal Forest was still fraught with danger, and they couldn’t afford to lower their guard.

"Wait!"

Suddenly, a Saint Venerable who was leading the way stopped everyone in their tracks. At his word, everyone was startled, looking around with wary eyes.

"Who’s there?!"

Only to hear Yu Zhi bellow, the visibility in the area was somewhat dim, and the group couldn’t see clearly. In front of them, a shadow appeared, resembling a person.

All eyes followed, feeling a chill in their hearts. They had entered the forest in a ’one’ formation with other teams; it should be impossible for others to be here.

How could there be anyone else in the Fallen Immortal Forest?

"It’s a skeleton!" Yu Zhi moved closer, making out the shadow hidden beside a withered tree; it was a skeleton pinned to the tree with a longsword.

"It must be someone who entered the Fallen Immortal Forest long ago and died here."

"Pinned to a tree with a sword, could it be the result of a dispute?"

Everyone was puzzled, yet no one dared to approach.

"This sword must be exceptional..."

One of the Saint Heirs spoke, bold but cautious, noticing that the sword that pinned the skeleton to the tree shone with luster and was incredibly sharp – a weapon of Holy Weapon caliber.

He approached the skeleton carefully to inspect it and, seeing no other anomalies, reached out to pull out the sword.

"Don’t!"

Yu Zhi was just about to speak out to stop him, only to find it was already too late. The sword had been pulled out, the bones scattered on the ground, instantly turning to dust.

"There’s nothing wrong..."

The Saint Heir was confused, glancing at Yu Zhi.

Buzz!

But suddenly, the space slightly trembled, and an eerie current surged, sending chills down everyone’s spine.

"Ah!"

The next moment, the Saint Heir who had pulled out the Treasure Sword screamed. His entire arm exploded, and the ground beneath him revealed strange markings. Those markings glinted with light, enveloping him, and the next moment, he disappeared without a trace.

"This is an Array; no wonder those Ancient Alien Species dared not enter. The sword was sealing an Array Eye; now that the sword has been removed, the Array here has been activated!"

The crowd immediately burst into a commotion as Yu Zhi spoke in a heavy voice.

"Ah!"

Another scream echoed not far away. Everyone looked and saw several people nearby with the same sinister markings appearing under their feet. The markings, like golden snakes, glowed with blinding Golden Radiance, reflecting upward and enveloping the people within.

In the next instant, those figures also vanished into thin air right there.

"This is a Teleportation Array, and those people have all been teleported elsewhere!" someone exclaimed.

"Let’s move!" The crowd became agitated, and Yu Zhi shouted.

"Follow me," Mo Wangchen reminded Wu Lingfeng and others, before quickly moving to leave the range of the Teleportation Array.

Buzz!

Suddenly, there was a slight fluctuation in space, and Mo Wangchen’s face showed shock. When he looked down, all he could see were golden patterns emerging beneath his feet. He knew something was wrong and tried to retreat, but it was already too late.

Buzz!

Light enveloped him, and in an instant, Mo Wangchen and Wu Lingfeng, along with more than a dozen others, were transported to another location.

When they reappeared, they found themselves midway up a mountainside, faces filled with confusion. Upon regaining their bearings, Wu Lingfeng asked in puzzlement, "Where are we?"

"We should still be within the Fallen Immortal Forest," Mo Wangchen said after a moment of silence.

"We’re doomed, we’ve lost our direction, now we have no idea where to go to get out," Zhuo Bufan frowned heavily.

"Our bodies have barely any Spiritual Power left," Qin Yue added, making the headache worse for everyone.

Buzz!

Suddenly, Mo Wangchen felt the small Golden Sword within him tremble slightly, pointing in a certain direction.

He was first startled; the last time this occurred, they were under the Beiming Land, and the Golden Sword was able to find places with Source Stones.

However, in the Fallen Immortal Forest, Source Stones were of no use to them at all.

After a moment of silence, Mo Wangchen finally said, "Come with me."

He led Wu Lingfeng and the others in the direction indicated by the Golden Sword, from the mid-mountain to the top.

Looking out from the summit, they saw a bare expanse of land without any grass or trees, like a plateau carved out by a sword.

"There’s a small pond over there!" Wu Lingfeng pointed not far ahead.

Everyone looked and indeed, in the middle of the summit, was a small pond. They approached and found the water to be exceptionally clear, so much so that they could see the green grass growing underneath.

"In the Fallen Immortal Forest, where the flora is withered, how can there be green grass growing underwater?" Zhuo Bufan exclaimed in surprise.

"Could this be the legendary Divine Spring?!" someone exclaimed.

"It really could be!" Wu Lingfeng’s eyes lit up. He went to the water’s edge, scooped up some water, and sniffed it, saying with a puzzled face, "Why does it smell like urine..."

Ugh!

As these words were spoken, everyone froze. Zhuo Bufan stepped forward and said, "You try drinking it first, see if it can restore your Spiritual Power. It’s said that the Divine Spring within the Fallen Immortal Forest can instantly replenish one’s Spiritual Power. If this is truly the Divine Spring, we are saved."

"Bullshit!"

Wu Lingfeng flatly refused, "With such a stench of urine, why don’t you drink it yourself?"

"I still have quite a bit of Spiritual Power in my Spirit Sea, so forget about it..."

Clearly, Zhuo Bufan was also reluctant to try, as he too smelled an odd odor near the water.

This might actually be urine; how could he, the Saint Heir of Daluo Heaven Sect, possibly consider drinking it?

If this were to spread, wouldn’t he lose all face?

"The growth of green grass in this water is indeed strange; it might very well be the Divine Spring," Mo Wangchen said.

The crowd exchanged glances, and someone suggested, "Perhaps... we should try it together..."
