biǎo miàn shàng kàn ， zhè yě jiù yī pǔ tōng de shān gǔ 。『』
表面上看，这也就一普通的山谷。『』
At first glance, this valley appeared to be just an ordinary one.
huán jìng qīng yōu ， bǎi huā fán fù ， fēng jǐng jí wéi bù sú 。
环境清幽，百花繁复，风景极为不俗。
The environment was serene and picturesque with a myriad of flowers in full bloom, making the scenery quite remarkable.
dàn sān jiè miàn jī guǎng bó ， qīng shān lǜ shuǐ shǔ bù shèng shǔ ， zhè yàng yī chù xiá gǔ ， bù lùn cóng nǎ ge jiǎo dù ， dōu tán bù shàng yǒu hé chū qí zhī chù 。
但三界面积广博，青山绿水数不胜数，这样一处峡谷，不论从哪个角度，都谈不上有何出奇之处。
However, across the vast Three Realms, there were countless green mountains and clear waters. Such a ravine would not stand out no matter which angle you looked at it from.
dòng tiān fú dì ， zài líng jiè suàn bù shàng xī qí 。
洞天福地，在灵界算不上稀奇。
Cave heavens and blessed lands were not rare in the Spirit Realm.
nà duì fāng dài zì jǐ lái zhè lǐ ， jiū jìng yǒu hé mù dì ？
那对方带自己来这里，究竟有何目的？
So, what was the other party's purpose for bringing her here?
shuāng fāng de guān xì jīn fēi xī bǐ ， wú lùn rú hé ， tā dōu bù kě néng duì zì jǐ bù lì ， nán dào shuō ， zhè yā tou yǒu bǎo wù fàng zài zhè lǐ 。
双方的关系今非昔比，无论如何，她都不可能对自己不利，难道说，这丫头有宝物放在这里。
Their relationship had changed significantly since then. Regardless of anything else, she couldn't possibly be harmful to him. Could it be that this girl had some treasure hidden here?
lín xuān xīn zhōng àn àn chuǎi mó ， xiǎo dié de shēng yīn què zài cǐ kè chuán rù ěr duǒ ：“ lín dà gē ， nǐ kàn zhè lǐ huán jìng rú hé ？”
林轩心中暗暗揣摩，小蝶的声音却在此刻传入耳朵：“林大哥，你看这里环境如何？”
Lin Xuan pondered inwardly as Little Butterfly's voice entered his ears at this moment: "Brother Lin, what do you think of the environment here?"
zhè yā tou gǎi kǒu dé hái zhēn shì xùn sù 。
这丫头改口得还真是迅速。
This girl really changed her tune quickly.
bù guò lín xuān zì rán bú huì fǎn bó 。
不过林轩自然不会反驳。
But Lin Xuan naturally wouldn't refute. After all, close relationships were beneficial to both parties. Emotionally and logically, he was more than willing for it to happen.
bì jìng guān xì qīn mì duì bǐ cǐ dōu yǒu hǎo chù 。
毕竟关系亲密对彼此都有好处。
"Not bad."
yú qíng yú lǐ ， tā dōu shì lè jiàn qí chéng dì 。
于情于理，他都是乐见其成地。
Lin Xuan smiled as he spoke.
“ hái bú cuò 。”
“还不错。”
"This is my little sister's secret cave dwelling, the most important one among all of mine. I came here with the intention of taking it away."
lín xuān wēi xiào zhe kāi kǒu le 。
林轩微笑着开口了。
"What? Taking it away, Little Butterfly, are you joking!"
“ zhè lǐ shì xiǎo mèi de yī chù mì mì dòng fǔ ， yě shì wǒ suǒ yǒu dòng fǔ zhōng zuì zhòng yào de yī zuò ， wǒ lái dào zhè lǐ ， jiù shì dǎ suàn jiāng tā dài zǒu de 。”
“这里是小妹的一处秘密洞府，也是我所有洞府中最重要的一座，我来到这里，就是打算将它带走的。”
Lin Xuan was greatly surprised upon hearing this.
“ shén me ， jiāng tā dài zǒu ， xiǎo dié ， nǐ bú shì kāi wán xiào ba ！”
“什么，将它带走，小蝶，你不是开玩笑吧！”
At their current level, they naturally had the power to move mountains and overturn seas. However, moving an entire cave dwelling to another plane wasn't easy either.
lín xuān tīng le dà gǎn cuò è 。
林轩听了大感错愕。
The valley before them didn’t seem to have any value worth such effort. Yet, by looking at the other party's expression, it didn’t appear like a joke.
shí lì dào le tā men zhè ge děng jí ， zì rán yǒu zhe yí shān dǎo hǎi zhī lì ， rán ér xiǎng yào jiāng zhěng zuò dòng fǔ ， bān yùn dào qí tā jiè miàn ， què yě bìng bù róng yì 。
实力到了他们这个等级，自然有着移山倒海之力，然而想要将整座洞府，搬运到其他界面，却也并不容易。
What was hidden between these two?
yǎn qián de shān gǔ ， kě kàn bù chū yǒu shén me jià zhí ， zhí de nà yàng zuò ， kě kàn duì fāng de biǎo qíng ， yòu bù xiàng shì kāi wán xiào de 。
眼前的山谷，可看不出有什么价值，值得那样做，可看对方的表情，又不像是开玩笑的。
Lin Xuan pondered in his mind as Little Butterfly’s face revealed a playful look. From her expression, she seemed to be testing him intentionally.
zhè zhōng jiān jiū jìng yǒu shén me yǐn mì ne ？
这中间究竟有什么隐秘呢？
Lin Xuan couldn't help but feel amused and unwilling to show weakness; otherwise, he would have been looked down upon by this girl.
lín xuān xīn zhōng sī suǒ ， xiǎo dié de liǎn shàng què lù chū yī fù wán wèi zhī sè ， kàn tā de biǎo qíng ， nà shì yǒu yì zài kǎo jiū zì jǐ le 。
林轩心中思索，小蝶的脸上却露出一副玩味之色，看她的表情，那是有意在考究自己了。
With thoughts swirling in his head, Lin Xuan raised his head. A sudden burst of strange light appeared in his eyes, turning them pure silver.
lín xuān yǒu xiē kū xiào bù dé ， dāng rán yě bù yuàn yì shì ruò ， fǒu zé ， qǐ bù shì bèi zhè yā tou gěi xiǎo kàn le 。
林轩有些哭笑不得，当然也不愿意示弱，否则，岂不是被这丫头给小看了。
At their current level, even the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eye was not far from a true phoenix's vision. It could be considered a great accomplishment to have reached such a state.
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò ， lín xuān tái qǐ tóu lú 。 shuāng mù zhōng yì máng zhòu qǐ ， zhěng gè tóng kǒng ， dōu biàn chéng le chún yín zhī sè 。
脑海中念头转过，林轩抬起头颅。双目中异芒骤起，整个瞳孔，都变成了纯银之色。
Under the power of this divine eye, Lin Xuan indeed discovered something different.
shí lì dào le tā zhè ge děng jí ， tiān fèng shén mù jiù suàn yǔ zhēn zhèng de fèng huáng xiāng bǐ ， chā jù yě shì yǒu xiàn yǐ jí 。
实力到了他这个等级，天凤神目就算与真正的凤凰相比，差距也是有限以极。
The celestial and primordial energy in this place was extremely peculiar, aside from ordinary spiritual qi, there were also some strange golden energies.
shuō xiū liàn zhì dà chéng yě bù wèi guò 。
说修炼至大成也不为过。
However, each grain was too small.
zài cǐ líng mù zuò yòng de shén tōng xià ， lín xuān guǒ rán fā xiàn le yī xiē bù tóng 。
在此灵目作用的神通下，林轩果然发现了一些不同。
Only one ten-thousandth the size of an ordinary rice grain.
cǐ dì de tiān dì yuán qì gǔ guài yǐ jí ， chú le pǔ tōng de líng qì ， hái yǒu yī xiē jīn sè de gǔ guài yuán qì 。
此地的天地元气古怪以极，除了普通的灵气，还有一些金色的古怪元气。
There seemed to be hints of mysterious celestial laws within them.
zhǐ bù guò měi yī lì dōu tài xiǎo le 。
只不过每一粒都太小了。
And these laws were vastly different from those he had encountered before, clearly more profound.
zhǐ yǒu pǔ tōng mǐ lì de shí wàn fēn zhī yī 。
只有普通米粒的十万分之一。
"This... is Immortal Spirit Qi!"
qí zhōng sì hū yǐn yǐn hái hán yǒu qí guài de tiān dì fǎ zé 。
其中似乎隐隐还含有奇怪的天地法则。
Lin Xuan finally couldn't help showing a look of astonishment.
qiě yǔ zì jǐ yǐ qián jiē chù de fǎ zé zhī lì jiǒng rán xiāng yì ， míng xiǎn yào gāo shēn yī xiē 。
且与自己以前接触的法则之力迥然相异，明显要高深一些。
It was actually the legendary Immortal Spirit Qi, albeit in smaller quantities. Its concentration was only one-tenth that of ordinary spiritual qi, but it was still extremely precious.
“ zhè shì …… xiān líng qì ！”
“这是……仙灵气！”
How could there be Immortal Spirit Qi here?
lín xuān zhōng yú yǒu xiē dòng róng le 。
林轩终于有些动容了。
After all, that was something only true immortals would have in their realm.
jū rán shì chuán shuō zhōng de xiān qì ， zhǐ bù guò shù liàng shǎo le yī xiē 。 nóng dù zhǐ yǒu pǔ tōng líng qì de shí fēn zhī yī ， dàn yě bǎo guì yǐ jí 。
居然是传说中的仙气，只不过数量少了一些。浓度只有普通灵气的十分之一，但也宝贵以极。
Lin Xuan was both surprised and delighted, though he had some doubts as well.
zhè lǐ zěn me huì yǒu xiān líng qì ？
这里怎么会有仙灵气？
Moon also widened her eyes, clearly having some knowledge of Immortal Spirit Qi.
yào zhī dào ， nà kě shì chuán shuō zhōng ， zhēn xiān jiè cái huì yǒu de dōng xī 。
要知道，那可是传说中，真仙界才会有的东西。
"Little Butterfly, what's going on?"
lín xuān yòu jīng yòu xǐ 。
林轩又惊又喜。
"Ha ha, this is just a matter of good fortune. Little Sister can only say she has been fortunate."
dàn yí dòu yě shì bù xiǎo dì 。
但疑窦也是不小地。
At this point, the Moon Moth no longer played coy and raised her delicate eyebrows as an enchanting voice came from her mouth: "I discovered a precious treasure in this true spirit burial ground."
yuè ér yì dèng dà le shuāng mù ， xiǎn rán duì yú xiān líng qì yě shì yǒu yí dìng liǎo jiě de 。
月儿亦瞪大了双目，显然对于仙灵气也是有一定了解的。
"A precious treasure, what is it?"
“ xiǎo dié ， zhè jiū jìng shì zěn me huí shì ？”
“小蝶，这究竟是怎么回事？”
"Brother Lin and Sister Moon should go see for yourselves. It's hard to explain with words."
“ xī xī ， zhè dōu shì jī yuán qiǎo hé ， zhǐ néng shuō xiǎo mèi yùn qì bù cuò 。”
“嘻嘻，这都是机缘巧合，只能说小妹运气不错。”
As Little Butterfly spoke, she flicked her jade hand, sending out a beam of light as thick as an arm that flashed into the valley.
shì qíng dào le zhè yī bù ， huàn yuè é yě jiù bù zài mài guān zi 。 xiù méi qīng yáng ， dòng tīng de shēng yīn jiù cóng tā de zuǐ bā lǐ chuán chū ：“ wǒ zài zhè zhēn líng mái gǔ zhī suǒ ， fā xiàn le yī zhēn guì de bǎo wù 。”
事情到了这一步，幻月蛾也就不再卖关子。秀眉轻扬，动听的声音就从她的嘴巴里传出：“我在这真灵埋骨之所，发现了一珍贵的宝物。”
Subsequently, milky white mist surged, revealing a path wide enough for two people to walk side by side.
“ zhēn guì de bǎo wù ， shì shén me ？”
“珍贵的宝物，是什么？”
"Please!"
“ lín dà gē yǔ yuè ér jiě jiě qù kàn yī xià 。 zì rán jiù qīng chǔ ， zhè dōng xī yòng yán yǔ kě bù tài hǎo jiě shì de 。”
“林大哥与月儿姐姐去看一下。自然就清楚，这东西用言语可不太好解释的。”
Leading the way was Little Butterfly. Lin Xuan and Moon didn't hesitate and followed her inside.
xiǎo dié yī biān shuō ， yī biān yù shǒu yī fú ， suí zhe tā de dòng zuò 。 yī dào ér bì cū de hóng guāng yóu zhǎng xīn zhōng fēi chū ， yī shǎn jí shì ， mò rù shān gǔ 。
小蝶一边说，一边玉手一拂，随着她的动作。一道儿臂粗的红光由掌心中飞出，一闪即逝，没入山谷。
Soon they entered the cave dwelling, which was adorned with flowers in clusters. However, all three ignored it as the Moon Moth led them through the cave dwelling to the innermost secret room.
suí hòu rǔ bái sè de wù qì fān yǒng 。 yī tiáo kě róng liǎng rén bìng jiān tōng guò de xiǎo dào fú xiàn ér chū 。
随后乳白色的雾气翻涌。一条可容两人并肩通过的小道浮现而出。
"Eh?" Upon approaching the secret room, Lin Xuan felt a sense of surprise because the Immortal Spirit Qi here was much denser than outside.
“ qǐng ！”
“请！”
Could it be...
xiǎo dié dāng xiān dài lù ， lín xuān yǔ yuè ér yě bù chí yí ， suí zhe tā zǒu le jìn qù 。
小蝶当先带路，林轩与月儿也不迟疑，随着她走了进去。
Lin Xuan had a vague guess in his mind.
hěn kuài jìn le dòng fǔ ， lǐ miàn bù zhì dé huā tuán jǐn cù ， bù guò sān rén dōu shì ruò wú dǔ ， huàn yuè é dài zhe tā liǎ chuān guò dòng fǔ ， lái dào zuì lǐ miàn de yī jiān mì shì zhī zhōng 。
很快进了洞府，里面布置得花团锦簇，不过三人都视若无睹，幻月蛾带着她俩穿过洞府，来到最里面的一间密室之中。
But at this moment, there was no need to overthink it as the answer would soon reveal itself.
“ yí ？” gāng yī jiē jìn mì shì ， lín xuān jiù gǎn dào jīng qí ， yīn wèi zhè lǐ de xiān líng qì yǔ wài miàn xiàng bǐ ， míng xiǎn yòu nóng le xǔ duō 。
“咦？”刚一接近密室，林轩就感到惊奇，因为这里的仙灵气与外面相比，明显又浓了许多。
Entering the secret room, dense Immortal Spirit Qi rushed towards him, far more concentrated than when he was outside.
nán dào shuō ……
难道说……
Scanning with his eyes, Lin Xuan found that the entire room was empty except for a well in the center, which stood out starkly.
lín xuān xīn zhōng yǐn yǐn yǒu le cāi cè 。
林轩心中隐隐有了猜测。
Around the well, the Immortal Spirit Qi was even denser.
bù guò cǐ kè ， dào yě bù yòng fèi jìn xīn sī qù duō zuò sī liáng le 。
不过此刻，倒也不用费劲心思去多做思量了。
"Immortal Spirit Treasure!"
yīn wèi dá àn hěn kuài jiù huì zì jǐ jiē xiǎo le 。
因为答案很快就会自己揭晓了。
Despite his earlier guesses, Lin Xuan couldn't help showing an extremely surprised expression.
zǒu jìn mì shì ， nóng mì de xiān líng qì pū miàn ér lái ， yǔ zài shān gǔ shí xiāng bǐ ， nóng mì le hé zhǐ bèi yú 。
走进密室，浓密的仙灵气扑面而来，与在山谷时相比，浓密了何止倍余。
This legendary item had truly been encountered by him.
ér lín xuān mù guāng sǎo guò ， fā xiàn zhěng jiān mì shì kōng wú yī wù ， zhǐ yǒu yī kǒu shuǐ jǐng ， xiǎn de fēi cháng de tū wù 。
而林轩目光扫过，发现整间密室空无一物，只有一口水井，显得非常的突兀。
An Immortal Spirit Treasure was more precious than a rare treasure in a divine dwelling and could be of greater use to cultivators at their current level.
shuǐ jǐng zhōu wéi ， xiān líng qì míng xiǎn hái yào nóng mì xǔ duō 。
水井周围，仙灵气明显还要浓密许多。
Of course, most cultivators would never hear about it even in a lifetime.
“ xiān líng zhī bǎo ！”
“仙灵之宝！”
But the Spirit Eye Treasure was something everyone knew well.
jǐn guǎn xiān qián yǒu cāi cè ， lín xuān hái shì rěn bú zhù lù chū le jí wéi jīng yà de shén sè 。
尽管先前有猜测，林轩还是忍不住露出了极为惊讶的神色。
So-called Immortal Spirit Treasures sounded incredibly mysterious but were closely linked with Spirit Eye Treasures. Many had evolved from them.
zhè chuán shuō zhōng de dōng xī ， jū rán zhēn bèi zì jǐ yù dào le 。
这传说中的东西，居然真被自己遇到了。
However, such an evolution was extremely unlikely, with less than one-in-a-billion chances.
xiān líng zhī bǎo ， cóng mǒu zhǒng yì yì shàng lái shuō ， bǐ xiān fǔ qí zhēn gèng jiā zhēn xī ， duì yú tā men zhè ge děng jí de xiū xiān zhě ， yě yǒu gèng dà de yòng tú 。
仙灵之宝，从某种意义上来说，比仙府奇珍更加珍稀，对于他们这个等级的修仙者，也有更大的用途。
The entire Spirit Realm only possessed two or three such treasures.
dāng rán ， jué dà bù fèn xiū xiān zhě ， qióng qí yī shēng ， dōu bú huì tīng shuō 。
当然，绝大部分修仙者，穷其一生，都不会听说。
One of the most famous was the Peaches of Immortality.
dàn líng yǎn zhī bǎo què shì dà jiā dōu ěr shú néng xiáng de 。
但灵眼之宝却是大家都耳熟能详的。
Legend said that in ancient times, it was a superior Spirit Eye Tree. Later, through some fortunate coincidence, it evolved into an Immortal Spirit Tree.
suǒ wèi xiān líng zhī bǎo ， tīng shàng qù shén mì wú bǐ ， qí shí yǔ líng yǎn zhī bǎo yǒu zhe qiān sī wàn lǚ de lián xì ， bù shǎo shèn zhì jiù shì hòu zhě fā shēng le yì biàn ér jìn jí 。
所谓仙灵之宝，听上去神秘无比，其实与灵眼之宝有着千丝万缕的联系，不少甚至就是后者发生了异变而晋级。
Its peaches were invaluable for late-stage cultivators to comprehend their domains.
dāng rán ， shuō shuō hǎo xiàng hěn róng yì ， qí shí zhè zhǒng jìn jí de kě néng xìng ， bù zú yì wàn fēn zhī yī 。
当然，说说好像很容易，其实这种晋级的可能性，不足亿万分之一。
As for the other two Immortal Spirit Treasures, no one knew what they looked like as they rarely appeared in the world. It was said that the owner of such a treasure had power comparable to scattered immortals and demon kings.
jiù shì zhěng gè líng jiè ， suǒ yōng yǒu de xiān líng zhī bǎo ， yě bù guò liǎng sān jiàn ér yǐ 。
就是整个灵界，所拥有的仙灵之宝，也不过两三件而已。
Although it was just legend, the truth was mostly so. Ordinary people wouldn't dare possess such treasures except for those formidable old monsters.
qí zhōng zhī zhù míng de ， jiù shì pán táo shù 。
其中之著名的，就是蟠桃树。
The saying "a common man without sin is still guilty if he carries jade" was known by everyone.
jù shuō qí zài shàng gǔ zhī shí ， shì yī kē jí pǐn de líng yǎn zhī shù ， hòu lái bù zhī dào zěn yàng jī yuán qiǎo hé ， jìn jí chéng le xiān líng zhī shù 。
据说其在上古之时，是一棵极品的灵眼之树，后来不知道怎样机缘巧合，晋级成了仙灵之树。
Lin Xuan had only seen Immortal Spirit Treasures in ancient texts before but now had a chance to see one with his own eyes, making the opportunity truly remarkable.
qí suǒ jié de pán táo shèng guǒ ， duì yú dù jié hòu qī xiū shì cān wù lǐng yù ， kě shì yǒu zhe mò dà de yòng tú 。
其所结的蟠桃圣果，对于渡劫后期修士参悟领域，可是有着莫大的用途。
If his guess was correct, this well should have evolved from a Spirit Eye.
zhì yú lìng wài liǎng jiàn xiān líng zhī bǎo shì hé mú yàng ， gēn běn jiù méi yǒu rén qīng chǔ ， hěn shǎo xiàn shì ， jù shuō yōng yǒu zhè zhǒng bǎo wù de zhǔ rén de shí lì ， bǐ zhī sàn xiān yāo wáng yě xiāng chà fǎng fú 。
至于另外两件仙灵之宝是何模样，根本就没有人清楚，很少现世，据说拥有这种宝物的主人的实力，比之散仙妖王也相差仿佛。
If it were such a treasure, taking some effort to carry it away would be necessary.
suī rán shì chuán shuō ， dàn shì shí yě duō bàn shì rú cǐ ， chú le nà ge děng jí de lǎo guài wù ， yì bān rén ， yǒu zěn me yǒu dǎn liàng yōng yǒu zhè děng bǎo wù de 。
虽然是传说，但事实也多半是如此，除了那个等级的老怪物，一般人，有怎么有胆量拥有这等宝物的。
Seeing Lin Xuan's calm expression return quickly, Little Butterfly couldn't help but feel admiration. An Immortal Spirit Treasure wasn’t something ordinary late-stage cultivators could remain so composed about.
pǐ fū wú zuì huái bì qí zuì ， zhè dào lǐ ， kě shì rén rén dōu xiǎo de 。
匹夫无罪怀璧其罪，这道理，可是人人都晓得。
This boy Lin was indeed not an ordinary cultivator. Her decision to partner with him seemed very correct.
ér xiān líng zhī bǎo lín xuān yǐ qián yě zhǐ shì zài diǎn jí shàng jiàn guò ， méi xiǎng dào hái yǒu jī huì qīn yǎn mù dǔ ， jī yuán zhe shí bù sú 。
而仙灵之宝林轩以前也只是在典籍上见过，没想到还有机会亲眼目睹，机缘着实不俗。
"Little Butterfly, do you need Brother Lin’s help to take this treasure?"
yǎn qián de shuǐ jǐng ruò shì méi yǒu liào cuò ， yīng gāi shì yóu líng quán zhī yǎn jìn huà ér chéng de 。
眼前的水井若是没有料错，应该是由灵泉之眼进化而成的。
Lin Xuan smiled as he asked.
ruò shì zhè děng bǎo wù de huà ， fèi yī xiē lì qì dài zǒu ， dāng rán yě jiù hěn yǒu bì yào le 。
若是这等宝物的话，费一些力气带走，当然也就很有必要了。
"If Brother Lin is willing to lend a hand, that would be the best. Otherwise, relying solely on Little Sister's strength, it might be difficult to retrieve this Immortal Spirit Treasure intact," Moon Moth said happily.
At first glance, this valley appeared to be just an ordinary one.
The environment was serene and picturesque with a myriad of flowers in full bloom, making the scenery quite remarkable.
However, across the vast Three Realms, there were countless green mountains and clear waters. Such a ravine would not stand out no matter which angle you looked at it from.
Cave heavens and blessed lands were not rare in the Spirit Realm.
So, what was the other party's purpose for bringing her here?
Their relationship had changed significantly since then. Regardless of anything else, she couldn't possibly be harmful to him. Could it be that this girl had some treasure hidden here?
Lin Xuan pondered inwardly as Little Butterfly's voice entered his ears at this moment: "Brother Lin, what do you think of the environment here?"
Brother?
This girl really changed her tune quickly.
But Lin Xuan naturally wouldn't refute. After all, close relationships were beneficial to both parties. Emotionally and logically, he was more than willing for it to happen.
"Not bad."
Lin Xuan smiled as he spoke.
"This is my little sister's secret cave dwelling, the most important one among all of mine. I came here with the intention of taking it away."
"What? Taking it away, Little Butterfly, are you joking!"
Lin Xuan was greatly surprised upon hearing this.
At their current level, they naturally had the power to move mountains and overturn seas. However, moving an entire cave dwelling to another plane wasn't easy either.
The valley before them didn’t seem to have any value worth such effort. Yet, by looking at the other party's expression, it didn’t appear like a joke.
What was hidden between these two?
Lin Xuan pondered in his mind as Little Butterfly’s face revealed a playful look. From her expression, she seemed to be testing him intentionally.
Lin Xuan couldn't help but feel amused and unwilling to show weakness; otherwise, he would have been looked down upon by this girl.
With thoughts swirling in his head, Lin Xuan raised his head. A sudden burst of strange light appeared in his eyes, turning them pure silver.
At their current level, even the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eye was not far from a true phoenix's vision. It could be considered a great accomplishment to have reached such a state.
Under the power of this divine eye, Lin Xuan indeed discovered something different.
The celestial and primordial energy in this place was extremely peculiar, aside from ordinary spiritual qi, there were also some strange golden energies.
However, each grain was too small.
Only one ten-thousandth the size of an ordinary rice grain.
There seemed to be hints of mysterious celestial laws within them.
And these laws were vastly different from those he had encountered before, clearly more profound.
"This... is Immortal Spirit Qi!"
Lin Xuan finally couldn't help showing a look of astonishment.
It was actually the legendary Immortal Spirit Qi, albeit in smaller quantities. Its concentration was only one-tenth that of ordinary spiritual qi, but it was still extremely precious.
How could there be Immortal Spirit Qi here?
After all, that was something only true immortals would have in their realm.
Lin Xuan was both surprised and delighted, though he had some doubts as well.
Moon also widened her eyes, clearly having some knowledge of Immortal Spirit Qi.
"Little Butterfly, what's going on?"
"Ha ha, this is just a matter of good fortune. Little Sister can only say she has been fortunate."
At this point, the Moon Moth no longer played coy and raised her delicate eyebrows as an enchanting voice came from her mouth: "I discovered a precious treasure in this true spirit burial ground."
"A precious treasure, what is it?"

Lin Xuan had only seen Immortal Spirit Treasures in ancient texts before but now had a chance to see one with his own eyes, making the opportunity truly remarkable.
If his guess was correct, this well should have evolved from a Spirit Eye.
If it were such a treasure, taking some effort to carry it away would be necessary.
Seeing Lin Xuan's calm expression return quickly, Little Butterfly couldn't help but feel admiration. An Immortal Spirit Treasure wasn’t something ordinary late-stage cultivators could remain so composed about.
This boy Lin was indeed not an ordinary cultivator. Her decision to partner with him seemed very correct.
"Little Butterfly, do you need Brother Lin’s help to take this treasure?"
Lin Xuan smiled as he asked.
"If Brother Lin is willing to lend a hand, that would be the best. Otherwise, relying solely on Little Sister's strength, it might be difficult to retrieve this Immortal Spirit Treasure intact," Moon Moth said happily.
