It seemed the senior disciple had already treated them.
Their injuries had all been treated by the senior disciple. Chu Lingwei returned to her seat and began to regulate her breathing.
Her divine soul had been heavily injured. Even though the senior disciple had repaired it, it would not recover in a short time and required careful recuperation.
Two hours later, Su Yan was the first to wake up.
"Junior Sister?" Su Yan saw his junior sister sitting beside him, surprise in his eyes.
"Third Senior Brother, you're awake." Chu Lingwei opened her eyes and saw Su Yan's pale complexion. He couldn't be much better off than herself.
"How did I get here?"
Su Yan sat down and saw Nangong Luo beside him, then looked at the two small beasts. He remembered almost dying in the mouth of that giant beast, and the next moment he was here.
Chu Lingwei did not answer, unsure if the senior disciple wanted them to know that he had rescued them.
"Weiwei..." Feng Ming opened his eyes, saw Chu Lingwei, and cried aggrievedly. He immediately threw himself into her arms, "Weiwei, I really thought you were going to die just now."
Feng Ming and Chu Lingwei were soul beasts with a telepathic connection.
This kind of contract meant that if the master encountered danger or was heavily injured, the spirit beast would also suffer a backlash.
"Aren't I fine now?" Chu Lingwei hugged Feng Ming into her arms, comforting him gently, "I only suffered a minor injury just now, nothing at all."
"Weiwei, where did you go then?" Feng Ming tilted his head up, examining Chu Lingwei's injuries. "Why was your divine soul injured?"
Chu Lingwei sighed and told her and her second senior brother's encounters in the Soul Devouring Pagoda to their third senior brother and the others.
She felt she was rather unlucky.
"In that case, the true intention of the Inheritance Hall was to want the divine souls of us cultivators." Su Yan, though he hadn't been in the same place as Chu Lingwei, was not much better off. He had encountered several high-level spirit beasts, all of whom had the same goal: to devour his divine soul.
"That's certainly it."
Chu Lingwei sighed. She wondered if she would have chosen to enter the Inheritance Hall if she had known its true intention was to absorb the divine souls of cultivators.
She felt it was very possible that she would still have entered.
Only by personally experiencing danger would one truly believe it to be danger.
Nangong Luo was the most seriously injured. By the time he woke up, Su Yan's injuries had largely healed.
"Second Senior Brother, you're awake?" Chu Lingwei came to Nangong Luo and saw his pained expression. She quickly gave him a pill.
"I didn't die."
Nangong Luo sat up, looked at Chu Lingwei, then at his third junior brother, and furrowed his brows. "Are you real?"
He had already seen them in the illusion cast by the Nine-Tiered Soul-Seizing Divine Lion.
"Second Senior Brother, we were rescued." Chu Lingwei knew that this matter might not be kept secret for long.
"By whom?" Nangong Luo sat up and quickly examined himself. Everything within him was gone, and even his divine soul seemed to have been restored by someone. "Did Senior Disciple come here?"
Hearing Nangong Luo's words, Chu Lingwei stood up directly. So her second senior brother knew that their senior disciple had entered the Cangshan Secret Realm with them. "Second Senior Brother, how do you know Senior Disciple is in the Cangshan Secret Realm?"
Nangong Luo... He had accidentally revealed the senior disciple's secret realm.
"So it was Senior Disciple who saved us?" Su Yan had no idea who had saved him.
"Where is Senior Disciple?" Nangong Luo looked around, unable to find the senior disciple.
"He left after rescuing us." Chu Lingwei walked to the cave entrance and looked out at the dark night. What was the senior disciple doing here?
Hearing that it was their senior disciple who had saved them, Nangong Luo felt relieved and began to regulate his breathing.
"What should we do now?"
Having been rescued from the Inheritance Hall by their senior disciple, they could not enter it again. They had come to the Cangshan Secret Realm, and they definitely had to bring something back.
"Let's go find spirit herbs." Nangong Luo said without thinking. They represented the Spiritual Cultivation Academy entering here, and naturally, they had to bring back something for their academy.
Chu Lingwei and the others had all suffered heavy injuries to their divine souls. If they couldn't recover, it might affect their future cultivation. They were all a little hesitant to face danger directly. The few of them stayed together nearby, searching for spirit herbs.
"You actually came out alive." The Ape-man Qingtian sensed the aura of Chu Lingwei and the others and came before them, marveling. These few were truly lucky.
"Greetings, senior."
Seeing the Ape-man Qingtian, Chu Lingwei and the others stepped forward to pay their respects. They couldn't defeat the Ape-man Qingtian, so they could only be polite.
"How did you leave the Inheritance Hall?" The Ape-man Qingtian was very curious. With the abilities of these few, they certainly couldn't have left on their own, unless someone had saved them.
The Ape-man Qingtian's eyes were filled with doubt. As far as he knew, there shouldn't be anyone so powerful in the entire Cangshan Secret Realm.
Chu Lingwei and the others remained silent.
"Why are you here?" Seeing their silence, the Ape-man Qingtian didn't ask further. Everyone had their own destinies, and these few had profound destinies.
"We are looking for spirit herbs here." Chu Lingwei pointed to the thousand-year-old spirit herbs in front of them. These spirit herbs were considered precious even on the Profound Sky Continent.
"They are all going to snatch the supreme treasure, and you don't want it?" The Ape-man Qingtian guessed that they probably didn't know about the appearance of the supreme treasure.
"Supreme treasure?"
Upon hearing the words "supreme treasure," Nangong Luo's eyes immediately lit up. A supreme treasure from the Cangshan Secret Realm would undoubtedly be extraordinary.
"Just yesterday, the supreme treasure suddenly appeared, and all the cultivators rushed to snatch it. It's to the south. If you want to go, you can take a look," the Ape-man Qingtian pointed south and then disappeared completely.
"Should we go and take a look?"
Since they had come, it would be a pity not to see what the supreme treasure looked like.
"Yes." Su Yan nodded, summoned his flying artifact, and took Chu Lingwei and Nangong Luo towards the south.
After flying for a day, they sensed the presence of cultivators. When they saw them appear, they neither attacked nor left.
"So it's fellow daoists from the Human Evolution Sect." Nangong Luo recognized someone familiar at the bottom and greeted them with a smile.
"Fellow Daoist Nangong, I didn't expect you to come as well." Bai Jin of the Human Evolution Sect cupped his hands to Nangong Luo. "It's a pity you're late."
Nangong Luo's eyes flickered, and he appeared before Bai Jin. "What exactly is this supreme treasure that has appeared, attracting so many people to fight for it?"
"I don't know. The supreme treasure hasn't appeared yet, but it should be soon." Bai Jin knew that he didn't have the fate to obtain the supreme treasure and decided to give Nangong Luo a favor.
"It hasn't appeared yet." Nangong Luo's eyes showed interest. Then he absolutely had to go and see.
"However, I heard that the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect is determined to obtain this supreme treasure." Bai Jin's eyes held a hint of sarcasm. The Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect seemed to know about the appearance of the supreme treasure in advance and had been waiting here early.
