CHAPTER 363: CHAPTER 201 WAVE WATCHING SEA PAVILION_3

"Then let’s go!"

The two Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators among the loose cultivators also gave a casual order, entirely lacking the concept of united effort among loose cultivators.

Li Yunjing saw this scene and couldn’t help but chuckle.

These loose cultivators didn’t leave earlier, now you want to leave but you have no opportunity.

"Sigh..."

The group of loose cultivators, now only forty or fifty people, where would they dare to disobey the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators?

Each of them carried their magical artifacts and cautiously stepped through the main gate.

Next, the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators followed through the gate.

Finally, the direct-line Qi Cultivation Realm cultivators of the sects and clans came forth.

After entering the "Wave Watching Sea Pavilion," every blade of grass and every tree were priceless treasures for these cultivators, different from the low-tier spirit plants outside the pavilion; the spirit plants here were nearly all precious Tier Two materials.

Just setting foot into this courtyard revealed so many spirit plants that if harvested and taken back, everyone could make a huge fortune.

Many Qi Cultivation Realm cultivators began to breathe heavily.

Of course, these items were not enough to make the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators lose their composure.

Given the assets of Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi, they wouldn’t even consider this petty gain.

Both have higher expectations for the "Wave Watching Sea Pavilion."

For now, everyone refrained from turning against each other or making rash moves, seemingly waiting to fully explore the distribution of treasures and then engage in a decisive battle.

But each cultivator’s expression was exceptionally serious, aware of the impending danger.

During this period, the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators continued to force the loose cultivators to enter various corridors, gardens, rock gardens, and even spirit plant gardens.

So far, only the surrounding pavilions and towers have not been explored.

No danger had appeared during this process, but the more this was the case, the more suffocating everyone felt, as if a hidden threat was creeping toward them.

When they arrived at the back garden, they saw a pond with bubbles continuously surfacing, the entire pool seeming to boil.

"It seems this place is connected to an underground volcano!"

Li Yunjing looked at the layout and immediately understood that this was the energy source of the cave mansion.

This Golden Core Realm cultivator seemed to have drawn energy from the volcano, turning it into the spiritual energy source for the cave mansion through conversion.

With this pond, the cave mansion had been able to continue to maintain itself without a master.

If the energy was cut off here, it could sever all energy output within the cave mansion, thereby destroying all restrictions and arrays!

With this thought, Li Yunjing immediately shared his ideas with Yu Yunyi.

The two gained a deeper understanding of the structure here and were no longer panicked by the unfamiliarity.

Here, the danger to them wasn’t that great; rather, it was these cultivators that posed a greater threat to Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi.

Unless they could find a way to eliminate these cultivators, their chances of snatching treasures from so many people would be slim.

"Don’t divulge this secret to them! Let them charge through the restrictions and arrays!"

Yu Yunyi’s voice was icy cold, transmitting her thoughts to Li Yunjing.

"That suits me perfectly!"

Li Yunjing responded with a light laugh, growing increasingly fond of Yu Yunyi.

Friendly to her own people, and ruthlessly cold to outsiders; this was exactly the companion Li Yunjing desired.

Compared to the naive, uncompetitive Xing’Er and Yue’Er, Yu Yunyi’s future path would certainly be more glorious and long-lasting.

After Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi discussed their strategy, Li Yunjing took some time to speak with the two Foundation Establishment Realm experts among the loose cultivators.

They proposed forming an alliance of mutual defense; if any clan members attacked any of them, the other three would fully assist!

Li Yunjing did not object to this!

As for whether they would really put their full effort into it?

Since there were no vows made, they would see how the situation unfolded!

Words like these were spoken, but could not be taken seriously.

The two Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators had no idea that Li Yunjing, looking cheerful on the surface, didn’t actually take their alliance seriously.

He didn’t care about their survival either.

"This back garden seems to be a volcanic outlet?"

Wang Zi scrutinized it and said somewhat suspiciously.

Afraid Wang Zi might uncover the truth, Li Yunjing said from beside him, "That’s right! When we fight later, we shouldn’t fight in the back garden; if a volcanic eruption is triggered, none of us will get the big shot’s treasure."

"Heh heh..."

Many Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators laughed awkwardly.

This loose cultivator’s words were blunt!

Seeing their reactions, Li Yunjing sneered disdainfully, "We’ve explored all secrets here! The big shot’s treasure is likely in the four palaces!"

Upon hearing Li Yunjing’s words, everyone’s expressions changed constantly, remaining silent.

Li Yunjing paused, then laughed again, "My wife and I, along with Brother Han and Brother Ye, will take the western palace. What do you all think?"

"Good!"

The loose cultivators surnamed Han and Ye were initially stunned, then immediately stepped forward to loudly agree.

Li Yunjing’s plan hadn’t been discussed with them, but getting one-quarter of the benefits among the four seemed like a good deal from any perspective.

The two had no reason not to support Li Yunjing verbally!

"Heh heh! This Brother Li, you only have four Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators, yet you want to take one-quarter of the benefits. Seems a bit unfair, doesn’t it?"

Having heard Li Yunjing’s words, Wang Zi’s gaze flashed with displeasure and he continued, "We have twenty-seven Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators here, for the remaining three palaces, do you expect us twenty-three to share?"

Previously, through his disciple Tingtao Gongzi’s words, Wang Zi had already learned Li Wutian’s identity, from the Great Ming Dynasty’s "Myriad Swords Sect."
