A life of leisure is worse than a life of flowers and splendour
Chapter 138 Who is the thief?
"Xiao Meng, how can you be sure that they have transported all this vitality and luck away?"
"Master, go to other islands and look at every island. You will understand if you go to the island with the wood attribute that you marked first." Xiao Meng said.
The group had already walked through various islands and were ready to leave, but Wushuang wanted to visit a few more islands.
True Lord Xuancheng glanced at his disciple. "Well, okay. Those islands have more spiritual plants. Perhaps you haven't gathered enough for the medicinal bath you mentioned earlier?" True Lord Xuancheng offered his disciple a helping hand. After all, the situation here was unclear. His disciple must have noticed something. No one knew if this place was under surveillance. As a Grand Master of the Yuanhou Realm, besides the dozen or so Divine Transformation cultivators, they were the most powerful in the entire continent. Having lived long enough, they knew everything and were more cautious.
"Well, Master, it's still a little short."
As Wushuang slowly stepped into the forests of the islands, a fresh breeze washed over her. She walked cautiously, scanning her surroundings with a sharp gaze. Soon, she discovered a series of unique places—places with particularly rich vitality and purple energy.
Wushuang was secretly amazed. No wonder Xiaomeng could so accurately pinpoint the location of the treasure. With such rich vitality and purple energy, it would be absurd to say that no treasure existed! Furthermore, as Wushuang explored further, she was surprised to discover that these locations, filled with vitality and purple energy, were cleverly converged to form a massive teleportation formation.
This formation was familiar to Wushuang, as she had once encountered it in the sect's Sutra Library. Back then, she had merely memorized the formation's layout and orientation, but the detailed information about its various patterns and runes was missing from the book. However, now, despite lacking detailed knowledge of the patterns and runes, Wushuang was confident she had found the key to breaking the formation based on the general outlines she remembered.
Wushuang cautiously navigated this mysterious land, seemingly casually searching for the few spots she believed might be the core of the formation. She would squat, carefully examining the patterns on the ground; then stand on tiptoe, gazing upward. As time ticked by, beads of sweat began to form on Wushuang's forehead.
Finally, after a meticulous investigation, Wushuang keenly detected a subtle movement. In a seemingly ordinary corner, there was a stone with a slightly different color than the surrounding area. It emitted a faint but unique glow, easily overlooked without careful observation.
Wushuang's heart skipped a beat, and a surge of joy washed over her like a tide. But she wasn't overwhelmed by joy at this moment, instead, she began to think more calmly.
She cautiously paced around the mysterious stone, her eyes sharp, taking in every detail. She first crouched down, carefully examining the intricate patterns on its surface, as if they held some unknown code. Then, she stood up and slowly circled around to the other side, squinting her eyes to examine how well it blended into its surroundings.
As time passed, Wushuang became increasingly focused on the scene before him. As if under a spell, the clues, once hidden in the darkness, gradually revealed their true form. Perhaps it was an insignificant pebble, or perhaps a faint trace, but every discovery filled Wushuang with excitement.
She kept adjusting her perspective, trying to connect all the clues into a complete picture. In the process, her thoughts became clearer and clearer.
Wushuang tried many methods, even asking his master and True Lord Luo Bing to work together, but unfortunately, it seemed that the eye of the formation was not something they could destroy, but they could still do some damage to it.
Wushuang found a few more points and, with a flurry of attacks, severed the array's energy source, severing several channels of vital energy and luck, and even disrupting other transmissions. Although he couldn't immediately sever it, some of the absorbed vital energy and luck had already escaped. As the array's energy weakened, its ability to absorb the Tianyuan Continent's vital energy and luck would gradually diminish. Once the Tianyuan Continent grew, perhaps he could completely eliminate it.
It wasn't until they were already far away from the floating island that Wushuang finally decided to share her astonishing discovery with everyone. As she spoke, each word seemed to carry a heavy weight, leaving everyone present with expressions of disbelief.
"Did you know? I actually saw something on that island..." Wushuang's voice trembled slightly, as if even she herself couldn't fully believe what she had witnessed. As she gradually revealed the secret, everyone was extremely shocked. Someone had actually been stealing the vitality and fortune of the Tianyuan Continent.
Everyone was deeply shocked by this discovery. If possible, Wushuang certainly hoped that someone stronger and more capable would step forward to handle this matter. After all, facing such an unknown and enormous challenge, their current strength was far from enough. However, at this moment, the master, who had been silent until then, suddenly spoke up: "We can't act rashly on this floating island issue for the time being."
The master's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over Wushuang's head, but no one questioned his judgment. They all knew that he was always cautious and prudent, and that he must have had good reasons and considerations for saying so.
"Why, Master?" Wushuang asked.
"Have you ever thought about who set up this formation? How could they reach into our Tianyuan Continent and seize our vitality and fortune? How could ordinary people do that? Once they make a move, what will the consequences be? We have made a move now. Without completely destroying it, the other party may not investigate further. We will only treat it as a test and never mention it again. If there is no movement, we can wait a few years to talk about it again.
Our Tianyuan Continent hasn't had a cultivator ascend in tens of thousands of years, and we've long lost contact with the previous generation. We don't know if there are other reasons beyond the records of the great battles passed down by the various sects. Now that the Tianyuan Continent is gradually recovering, everything is looking up. Only with sufficient strength can we achieve certain things."
"Yes, you two little ones should forget about this for now! Don't mention it again in the future." True Lord Luo Bing also followed.
