After changing her master, she turned to the ruthless way, and the whole sect knelt down

With Xie Mingzhu's guidance, the deeply buried spirit crystal was soon found.

This is a spirit crystal without attributes, and is considered to be of extremely high quality among spirit crystals.

Si Yu tried twice and successfully carved a timed trap on the spirit crystal.

He set the trap to be triggered after one hour, and then led his subordinates and Xie Mingzhu to activate the spiritual energy in the spirit crystal, and found a cave where a monster was hiding, pretending to search for treasure inside.

They pretended very well, acting as if it was very difficult to kill the monster, and then Si Yu "excitedly" dug out the spirit crystal on the spot, and everyone's faces immediately showed the joy of finding a treasure.

After confirming that the spiritual energy of the spirit crystal had dissipated without any hesitation, Si Yu and his companions instantly tensed up, waiting for those masked monks to come and snatch the treasure.

Just one second, two seconds... more than ten breaths of time passed. The cave was quiet, as if nothing had happened.

Si Yu felt strange, but was afraid that Xie Liuyin was lurking nearby, so he held up the spirit crystal and exclaimed loudly: "What a wonderful Five Elements Spirit Crystal! We actually found such a pure Five Elements Spirit Crystal. This is simply a great blessing."

After saying this, Si Yu did not forget to wink at several of his subordinates.

These demon cultivators were not stupid either. They immediately understood the Young Sect Master's meaning and began to praise the uniqueness and magic of the spirit crystal.

Even Xie Mingzhu, seeing this, interjected and gave a few compliments, hoping to quickly attract Xie Liuyin and the others and snatch the spirit crystal away.

But no matter how loudly they spoke or how exaggerated their expressions of surprise were, no one came into the cave, and no immobilization formation fell on them.

After waiting for a long time, Si Yu was finally disappointed.

He guessed that the group of masked monks might not dare to come again, and immediately threw the spirit crystal aside in boredom and anger.

"Young Sect Master, it looks like that group of people won't show up today." Yi Xing glanced at Si Yu's expression and stepped forward to ask, "Then, do we still have to continue this drama?"

"What are we performing for? No one is here, who are we performing for?" Si Yu said unhappily.

He originally thought that his plan was foolproof, but he never expected that this group of people would simply not come.

The Juelan Secret Realm is so big that he doesn’t even know the other party’s appearance and identity. He may not be able to meet them in the secret realm. After leaving the secret realm, it will be even more difficult to find their trace again!

Thinking of this, Si Yu felt his stomach bloating - it was all because of anger!

"Then Young Sect Master, what should we do next?" another demon cultivator asked from the left.

Seeing Si Yu's low mood, Xie Mingzhu was not happy that the plan had failed, but she still stepped forward to play the role of Jie Yuhua:

"It doesn't matter if the plan fails. Wouldn't it be better if they didn't follow us? That way, we can search for treasures in the secret realm and take away all the goodies inside!"

"What those masked thieves obtained were only two of the most insignificant resources in the secret realm. We will look for other resources later, and the previous losses will surely be made up quickly."

Xie Mingzhu was really good at saying nice things, and with her gentle coaxing, Si Yu's face gradually turned from ashen blue at the beginning to rosy red.

He looked up at Xie Mingzhu lovingly and said softly, "It's a good thing you're here, Mingzhu. Otherwise, I really don't know what to do."

Xie Mingzhu wrinkled her nose slightly at Si Yu, and her playful and cute look made Si Yu smile knowingly.

Finally regaining some spirit, Si Yu was no longer depressed: "Mingzhu, can you still sense any treasures nearby?"

"When I heard you talking about the Five Elements Spirit Crystal just now, I knew there was a place where there was really a piece of Fire Spirit Crystal hidden." Xie Mingzhu's eyes suddenly lit up, as if she remembered something.

Fire Spirit Crystal is different from this kind of attributeless spirit crystal. The latter is just a spirit stone condensed from the spirit stone mine and is slightly better than the top-grade spirit stone.

But the former was born from an entire fire-attribute vein and is a crystal stone that condenses huge spiritual energy.

There are originally few spirit stone mines with pure attributes in the world of cultivation, and this kind of spirit crystal can only be produced in high-quality pure attribute veins.

This makes the Five Elements Spirit Crystal even more rare, making it a treasure sought after by everyone in the world of cultivation.

The fire spirit crystal that Xie Mingzhu mentioned is hidden under a lava spring in the west of the secret realm.

There originally existed a high-quality spirit stone vein hidden there, but over time it slowly produced extremely high-quality fire spirit crystals, and the spiritual energy of the entire vein was eventually sucked dry.

After the Fire Spirit Crystal was born, that area gradually turned into the lava spring it is today.

However, such a dangerous place is nothing to a foundation-building cultivator.

What's more, with the quality of the robes Si Yu was wearing, even if he didn't use spiritual energy to protect his body, he wouldn't be hurt if he jumped directly into the lava spring.

Xie Mingzhu knew this, so she took the initiative to talk about the Fire Spirit Crystal.

Sure enough, after hearing her words, Si Yu and the others' eyes lit up. It was obvious that they also became interested in this extremely rare Fire Spirit Crystal.

After finding out that the lava spring was not far from here, the group immediately took action and rushed towards their new destination.

However, before leaving, Yi Xing asked Si Yu whether he wanted to take the spirit crystal engraved with the trap array with him.

But when Si Yu saw the spirit crystal, he would remember that he had prepared for so long but got nothing.

He was so angry that he didn't even want to look at the spirit crystal again, let alone take it with him.

"Just leave it here. I have plenty of spirit crystals in my treasure trove." Si Yu said disdainfully.

After saying this, they simply walked out of the cave.

About a quarter of an hour after they left, when they were sure that this group of people would not return temporarily to launch a surprise attack, Xie Liuyin and his companions finally appeared near the cave.

Xie Liuyin had long set her eyes on the spirit crystal that Si Yu was holding. Although the distance was a bit far and she couldn't sense what it was, the Mo Que sword she hid in the space artifact was not stupid.

This person had once followed their founder and had seen many good things.

The sword spirit could tell at a glance whether what Si Yu was holding was the Five Elements Spirit Crystal.

In addition, Si Yu and his group's behavior was too deliberate. How could Xie Liuyin, who had been on guard against them for a long time, be fooled?

However, she also hid in the dark and saw Si Yu throwing away the spirit crystal. Now she was curious about what was on the spirit crystal. That's why Xie Liuyin ran over to pick up the trash.

After taking this look, Xie Liuyin immediately found the timed trap on the spirit crystal!

I have to say that this Si Yu is quite capable, at least he is really good at carving formations.

Holding this unique spirit crystal, Xie Liuyin immediately had other ideas in his mind.

"Let's go, let's catch up with them now! I think Xie Mingzhu will definitely take them to dig for the big treasure this time to boost morale!"

Xie Liuyin silently put away the spirit crystal, turned around and led his men to chase Si Yu.
