第三千五百三十八章 灵族圣女

Lin Xuan's face showed admiration.

He hadn't expected to find a ten-thousand-year-old spirit milk in this stone cave.

Indeed, it was something that would make cultivators drool.

For Lin Xuan himself, it also had significant uses.

However, while the situation made sense, the giant ape and the flame giant were clearly not fighting for this item.

Though the ten-thousand-year-old spirit milk was rare, to true spirits, it wasn't particularly remarkable.

The giant ape wouldn't have gone through all that trouble just for it. Could there be other treasures in this water pool?

Lin Xuan cautiously released his divine sense.

Surprisingly, this time, he encountered no hindrance and quickly extended his divine sense to the bottom of the water pool.

A gourd-like object entered his sight.

On top of the gourd was a night pearl.

It had the size of a dragon's eye but was fire red in color. Astonishing amounts of spirit energy emanated from its surface.

"What is this treasure?"

Lin Xuan, relying on intuition, knew that it wasn't ordinary, but he couldn't identify what it was after much contemplation.

The cultivation world was vast, and there were numerous heavenly treasures. Although Lin Xuan had good experience, he couldn't recognize everything either.

Even if his guess was correct, the giant ape had fought fiercely for this treasure, but to be safe, he still released his divine sense to thoroughly search the entire stone chamber. After a long while of searching, he didn't find anything else.

Time was pressing, so Lin Xuan returned along his original path.

"Master!"

Moon's voice entered his ears. The little girl had been hovering beside him and now hurried over upon seeing him come out.

"How did it go? Did you find any treasure?"

"We found one, but I can't identify it."

Lin Xuan scratched his head and said helplessly.

"Oh, show me," Moon said with curiosity.

"Sure!"

Hearing his wife's words, Lin Xuan had no objections. He extended his hand to pass the night pearl-like treasure over.

Moon took it, examining it closely.

"This is..."

The little girl suddenly raised her eyebrows, a beautiful expression showing surprise on her face.

"Oh, Master, do you recognize this treasure?"

"Yes, this item is called Fire Dragon Fruit. For cultivators, it's an extremely unfamiliar object, but for true spirits, it has significant uses. It can even be said to be something that dreams of possessing."

"Really? How so?"

"The master knows well. True spirits are incredibly powerful, but once injured, they find it difficult to recover. However, there are some rare heavenly treasures in the three realms that greatly help with their injuries. Consuming them might even bring back the dead. This Fire Dragon Fruit is included among them."

Moon's voice like a golden oriole entered his ears. Having advanced to the Tribulation Transcending stage, although her past memories hadn't fully returned, she had about 70% of them. Her knowledge of heavenly treasures was far beyond Lin Xuan.

"Then I see."

Lin Xuan nodded in understanding.

This Fire Dragon Fruit could help true spirits recover from injuries, which explained why the giant ape fought so fiercely for it.

It was indeed a treasure that could be relied upon.

Lin Xuan's thoughts raced, and a smug smile appeared on his lips.

At the same time, tens of thousands of miles away from Lin Xuan's avatar,

a flash of spirit light stopped a small bell in mid-flight.

Following this, an ancient and rustic chime echoed into his ears. The item's surface emitted runes that eventually transformed into a man wearing black robes.

His face was pale, with a look of lingering fear. He muttered to himself, "Fortunately, I was quick enough to discard my body bag and cut off the avatar. Otherwise, this time, I might have really perished there."

"An avatar of an ordinary cultivator could sever my fangs, so what about the main body? Its strength is beyond imagination. In the three realms, it's one of the few powerful beings. What could such a being want in the true spirit burial grounds?"

"A saying goes: the virtuous do not come, and those who come are not virtuous. Could our spirit race really be unable to escape this calamity?"

With these thoughts, the man's expression turned extremely ugly. He sighed, "Forget it. I can't make a decision on this matter. If there is any disaster, let the old patriarch worry about it."

He then reached out and patted his waist. A flash of light appeared, revealing a palm-sized jade talisman.

The man lowered his head and sank into his divine sense.

Silver lines appeared on the surface of the jade talisman.

After a long while, he raised his head, his face showing extreme distress.

"Uncle, what happened? Is it really the ancient prophecy coming true?" The girl was alarmed and quickly asked.

"It's both yes and no. I don't know either. Let Han'er figure it out on your own," the spirit race patriarch sighed and casually passed the jade talisman over.

The girl took it, lowered her head slightly, and did the same as before, sinking into her divine sense.

Soon, her expression turned extremely ugly. After a long while, she raised her head.

"Uncle Han'er, is that person really him?"

The spirit race patriarch's voice was filled with concern as he asked.

"If I'm not mistaken, that woman is indeed the reincarnation of the King of Asuras," a strange light flashed in the girl's eyes, but her expression remained surprisingly calm.

"Are you sure? You won't make a mistake?"

The old man said worriedly.

"Uncle, although I am the spirit race's holy maiden, my true form is one of the Seven Treasures of the Asuras. This King of Asuras was my former master; how could I possibly make a mistake," the girl sighed.

"The prophecy has indeed come true. After millions of years, the reincarnation of the King of Asuras really found this place. Even hiding in the spirit burial grounds couldn't escape it?" The spirit race patriarch seemed to age significantly, his face showing many wrinkles.

He then raised his head and said, "Han'er, what do you plan to do?"
