Chapter 1009 - 902: Youquan Ice Flower

She quickly dodged behind Duan Gujin, wanting him to deal with those arrogant Immortal Sect disciples in front.Duan Gujin merely furrowed his brows slightly. He immediately sent a secret voice transmission to Yu Man, wanting to know how far the Youquan Ice Flower was from their current location. Yu Man quickly informed Duan Gujin that the Youquan Ice Flower was still several kilometers away from them.

"Let's take a detour to avoid direct confrontation with them. We need to be the first to get the Youquan Ice Flower."

Duan Gujin promptly led the others away.

The Mu Clan Immortal Sect disciples breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Duan Gujin and his companions leave.

Yet, some of them rolled their eyes, realizing that Duan Gujin and his group were likely here for the Youquan Ice Flower, just like they were.

Although they had also probed the location of the Youquan Ice Flower, they could never pinpoint its exact location.

"Those people in front have left; what should we do?"

"Let them go first. We'll deal with these Ghostly Slaughter Foot Soldiers first."

A few Mu Clan Immortal Sect disciples watched Duan Gujin and his group's retreating figures, a cold glint flashing in their eyes.

They hadn't expected the other party not to leave, but instead to continue advancing, with their Indicating Compass suggesting that the Youquan Ice Flower was likely straight ahead.

Judging from the direction Duan Gujin and his group were heading, they deduced that they too were after the Youquan Ice Flower.

Thinking that they were fighting for their lives here while Duan Gujin and his party went ahead to search for treasure left some of them fuming.

In their eyes, Duan Gujin's group was here just to take advantage.

"We need to kill these Ghostly Slaughter Foot Soldiers immediately and stop those people ahead from getting the Youquan Ice Flower!"

One of the team-leading disciples of the Mu Clan Immortal Sect said.

"Alright, Captain!"

Under the captain's command, the present Mu Clan Immortal Sect disciples promptly wielded their Dark Weapons to eliminate the Ghostly Slaughter Foot Soldiers before them.

After 15 minutes, they finally eradicated the Ghostly Slaughter Foot Soldiers obstructing their advance.

Their team consisted of more than two hundred, while they had been contending with over six hundred Ghostly Slaughter Foot Soldiers.

Even though they were outnumbered, they believed they could easily handle those Ghostly Slaughter Foot Soldiers with their treasures.

They had sent scouts here before and knew the approximate strength of the Ghostly Slaughter Foot Soldiers, and had also prepared a strategy.

If they encountered over a thousand Ghostly Slaughter Foot Soldiers, they would avoid direct confrontation and instead choose to scatter the enemy troops first.

Once they successfully dispersed the Ghostly Slaughter Foot Soldiers, they would concentrate all their disciples and forces to eliminate a weaker group of Ghostly Slaughter Foot Soldiers.

This strategy of dividing and conquering had allowed them to eliminate many Ghostly Slaughter Foot Soldiers along their path to this point.

Therefore, in the eyes of the Mu Clan Immortal Sect disciples, Duan Gujin's group was just here to pick up easy gains.

After eliminating those Ghostly Slaughter Foot Soldiers, they rushed to where Duan Gujin and his companions had headed, not wanting them to seize the Youquan Ice Flower.

"If those people ahead get the Youquan Ice Flower, what should we do?"

"What else, just snatch it back from them!"

"Right! If they take our treasure, can't we take it back?"

"If it weren't for us fighting tooth and nail against those Ghostly Slaughter Foot Soldiers, would they have been able to get the Youquan Ice Flower? They probably would have perished here long ago. Haven't you seen their cultivation levels? They're only low-level Martial Saints."

After a brief discussion, a few Mu Clan Immortal Sect disciples reached this decision.

Led by Yu Man, Duan Gujin and his group soon arrived at an open plain.

Surrounding the open plain, they saw a large mass of thick fog ahead.

The thick fog blocked their Divine Sense detection and was continuously expanding.

Duan Gujin and the others instantly realized that the Youquan Ice Flower was likely in the mist ahead, understanding that the fog should be produced by the Youquan Ice Flower.

"The Youquan Ice Flower is just ahead!"

Yu Man said excitedly.

Duan Gujin and his companions continued advancing and soon saw a large group of Evil Ghosts frozen in place, moving very slowly.

Even though they were quite close to the Evil Ghosts, the ghosts did not launch any attack on them.

Unable to use Divine Sense to probe, Duan Gujin widened his eyes to scrutinize the situation with the Evil Ghosts ahead.

After a while, he observed that there were at least over two thousand Ghostly Slaughter Foot Soldiers ahead.

Seeing the astonishing number of Evil Ghosts, he furrowed his brows deeply.

Though he could unleash a One-sided Heavenly Tribulation now to annihilate the Ghostly Slaughter Foot Soldiers ahead, it would be his last opportunity to utilize a One-sided Heavenly Tribulation.

The Lightning Power within a One-sided Heavenly Tribulation couldn't be continuously released.

After multiple attempts, he roughly understood the nature of a One-sided Heavenly Tribulation as a treasure.

He estimated that to eliminate the over a thousand Ghostly Slaughter Foot Soldiers ahead, the Lightning Power within the One-sided Heavenly Tribulation would be depleted here, and he would need at least another month before he could wield a One-sided Heavenly Tribulation again.

After a month, the One-sided Heavenly Tribulation would be able to gather Lightning Power again.

After much contemplation, Duan Gujin decided he couldn't use the One-sided Heavenly Tribulation anymore at this time.

He promptly informed Yu Man about the issue with the One-sided Heavenly Tribulation, reminding her to be prepared.

"Yu Man, the treasure in my hand can't continuously release Lightning Power. We have one last chance to use it. We must avoid conflict with the Evil Ghosts ahead! There might be unexpected situations later; I need to save the final use of Lightning Power for the right moment!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Man gasped sharply, realizing that the treasure in Duan Gujin's hand wasn't always capable of unleashing lightning.

She initially thought that Duan Gujin could recklessly dominate here, crashing through without hindrance, but didn't expect him to reveal that there's only one last chance to use the treasure.

"I thought your treasure could infinitely release its power."

Yu Man transmitted her thoughts to Duan Gujin secretly; her eyes filled with resentment.

"How is that possible, don't you know about the treasure energy conservation law?"

Duan Gujin exclaimed.

In the Divine World, the treasure energy conservation law exists.

This law dictates that the ability of a Martial Artist to wield a treasure is closely related to their own real power.

If the wielded treasure is more powerful, once its energy is exhausted, the Martial Artist cannot quickly restore the treasure's Combat Power solely through their own means.

The Divine World established this law to remind disciples, when confronting powerful enemies, to consider whether that enemy's power is sufficient to control the treasure normally.

If the enemy's power is vastly inferior to the treasure's potential, dodging its unleashed power might create opportunities for a counterattack.

After advancing some distance, Duan Gujin instructed everyone to circulate their Primordial Power to protect themselves from the invasive corrosion of the Netherworld Spring Energy.

Strolled views surprised the group; they saw many green plants growing at an observable pace.

Moreover, some green plants were incredibly large, with roots slowly wriggling like green worms in front of them.

"This is too creepy!"

Gu Xiaoyue and the others were filled with fear, witnessing such bizarre and fearful scenes for the first time.

"Do not touch those green plants; they are manifestations of the Netherworld Spring Energy. When the energy fuses with these plants, their growth accelerates. In time, they become very aggressive and corrosive, so stay away from them."

Duan Gujin quickly explained the dangers of those green plants, warning everyone to keep their distance.

Gu Xiaoyue only then understood the terrifying nature of those plants and dared not approach them.

Duan Gujin forged ahead, attentively observing everything around.

They were now seeking the Youquan Ice Flower, much better than the previously planned Reincarnation Flower, attempting this risky venture to find it.

Advancing a while, they suddenly spotted a creature resembling a rabbit: entirely green and seemingly adorable.

"What is that? So peculiar!"

Yu Man immediately asked curiously.

"Do not touch anything here; we must distance ourselves from the plants and creatures. They're extremely dangerous!"

Duan Gujin sternly warned.

Though fascinated by the green creature, Gu Xiaoyue and the others wouldn't risk approaching, aware of their precarious situation.

A slight mistake could be catastrophic.

Progressing further, they sensed the surrounding temperature drastically drop, making movement difficult.

"So cold!"

Gu Xiaoyue muttered.

"Everyone circulate your Primordial Power and consume Spiritual Medicine to replenish it. We're nearing the destination."

Yu Man said.

Her words brought a slight smile to Gu Xiaoyue and others.

After a while, they saw a gigantic lake ahead.

The lake was nearly entirely covered by a thick ice layer.

Their eyes widened at the sight of a towering white flower in the lake's center.

The white flower was enormous, emitting a rich fragrance.

"Folks, the white flower up-front should be the Youquan Ice Flower!"

Yu Man exclaimed.

"Wonderful!"

Gu Xiaoyue and the others shouted, their faces brimming with excitement.

They stepped onto the thick ice, heading toward the Youquan Ice Flower.

While jubilantly anticipating being the first to pluck the Youquan Ice Flower, Duan Gujin suddenly sensed imminent danger ahead and quickly alerted everyone to prepare.

"Be careful! Something's up ahead!"

Duan Gujin warned.
