As soon as he got close to the purple pool, Jiang Ming felt a burst of comfort all over his body. The purple liquid in the pool seemed to be some kind of treasure that contained extremely pure energy. Just by getting close to it, it penetrated into Jiang Ming's body in wisps, making his meridians bustle with activity.
"It seems to have a great effect on both types of cultivation." Feeling his body's hunger for the purple liquid, Jiang Ming was overjoyed.
He flicked his wrist and took out a jade bottle. It looked tiny. However, it was a magical tool that could hold a thousand liters of any liquid.
Jiang Ming used all his strength to activate the jade bottle, and the purple liquid suddenly rose from the pool and went into the jade bottle.
The young man from the Cangming Grotto-Heaven was fighting fiercely. Suddenly, he felt that something was wrong. He looked around the cave and finally found Jiang Ming. After seeing what he was doing, he immediately flew into a rage. "Yan Chixia, you are courting death! Stop!"
How could Jiang Ming listen to him? He gave the young man a thumbs-up and said, "Okay, cool!"
As he spoke, Jiang Ming took out another jade bottle. One in each hand, he began to collect the purple liquid like a madman.
In an instant, almost half of the purple liquid in the pool was gone.
The young man was so angry that the veins on his forehead popped out. However, he could not get away from the battle at all. Moreover, the black sword was even more important, and he could not afford to be distracted.
"This is ten-thousand-year-old rock spirit blood. Leave us some!" a genius from the Mysterious Star Grotto-Heaven also cried out with a pained expression.
Jiang Ming did not pay attention to them. Suddenly, he saw a burst of fog in the passage and three figures rushed out.
"It seems that these are their leaders!"
Jiang Ming looked at the two men and one woman. They were all at the peak of the Qi Refinement Realm.
Judging from their clothes, they were disciples from the Cangming Grotto-Heaven, the Mysterious Star Grotto-Heaven, and Chasing Moon Lake.
"What about the sword?" One of the men, a young man with a buzz cut, from the Cangming Grotto-Heaven shouted anxiously as soon as he rushed into the cave.
"Don't worry about the sword. Quickly stop that kid!" the young man shouted quickly and pointed his finger at Jiang Ming.
"What?" The young man with a buzz cut was puzzled. When he saw what Jiang Ming was doing, his face suddenly turned cold. "You're courting death!"
He flicked his sleeve, and layers of dark blue waves swept out, turning into more than a dozen water snakes made out of spiritual energy. They shot in front of Jiang Ming like lightning, biting at his vital parts.
"I'm afraid these things are extremely poisonous!"
Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows. Although he was not afraid, he did not want to expose his trump card in front of these people just yet.
He put away a jade bottle and used the Scarlet Separation Sword with his free hand. At the same time, he used the Mystic Flame Spirit Sacrifice Spell. His cultivation immediately rose to the peak of the Qi Refinement Realm. The violent spiritual energy fluctuations burst out directly, shocking all the geniuses in the cave.
The Scarlet Separation Sword released beams of spiritual energy, instantly wiping out all the water snakes. Then, it continued to attack the young man with a buzz cut without losing any momentum.
"W-Who are you?" The young man with a buzz cut was furious as he used his magical tool to block the attack.
The peak of the Qi Refinement Realm was definitely not a realm that an individual cultivator could reach.
Even in the three Grotto-heavens, there were only a few geniuses who had reached this realm.
"Me? I'm someone you can't afford to offend!" Jiang Ming grinned and continued to collect the ten-thousand-year-old rock spirit blood like crazy. With only the Scarlet Separation Sword, he was able to force the top geniuses of the Cangming Grotto-Heaven to retreat.
"What are you waiting for? Attack him together! The man with the buzz cut looked at the other two and shouted in exasperation, "If you let him finish snatching the rock spirit blood, we won't get anything!"
The leader of the Mysterious Star Grotto-Heaven was a handsome young man. He was holding a folding fan with a constellation map on it. He was dressed in white and looked regal.
At this moment, the young man with the fan slapped the fan in his hand and seemed to have come to a realization, "Fei Ming, you're right!"
The young man with a buzz cut, Fei Ming, immediately revealed a look of joy. Although they were opponents just now, when they encountered outsiders, disciples of large forces like them would often automatically unite.
However, what the fan-wielding young man said next stunned Fei Ming.
"My dear friend, you won't be able to use up all this ten-thousand-year-old rock spirit blood by yourself. I'll leave you a message talisman later. After this battle is over, I'll buy some from you!"
"Li Qianya, what the f*ck do you mean by that?" Fei Ming's face was red with anger.
"I also want to buy some!" The last woman who walked out of the fog raised her hand with a smile.
The two of them spoke. However, they had no intention of attacking Jiang Ming.
They were not stupid. This mysterious young man named Yan Chixia had obviously not used his full strength. If they were to become enemies with him at this time, they would be asking for trouble.
"Idiot!" Li Qianya waved his fan and looked at Fei Ming with disdain.
Coincidentally, the Scarlet Separation Sword struck Fei Ming's defensive magical tool. He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
