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

Just as Xie Mingzhu said, the location of the lava spring was indeed not far away. It only took Si Yu and others an hour to find it.

The lava spring is located in a valley filled with fire aura. The hot air rising from the lava spring makes the surrounding area extremely hot.

Even though they were wearing robes, the heat seemed impossible to block out and kept coming towards them.

The surrounding mountain walls were baked red, and the rocks were slowly melting. It was conceivable that as long as the lava spring continued to exist, this place would sooner or later become a magma pool.

"It is indeed a place where fire spirit crystals can be born. The fire spirit energy here is too strong." It was even so strong that it was a bit suffocating, Si Yu thought.

Xie Mingzhu was a little excited. In her previous life, this Fire Spirit Crystal was not obtained by her, but was obtained by a Buddhist cultivator who possessed a fire spirit root.

Later, when she learned from Wuxin that there were five elements spirit crystals in the Juelan Secret Realm, she secretly regretted it for a long time and kept thinking about getting the spirit crystals.

It’s a pity that the Buddhist cultivator was not like Wuxin and was extremely cold to him.

Thinking of those past events, Xie Mingzhu felt unhappy.

It is said that the Buddhist cultivator had once competed with Wuxin for the position of Buddhist disciple in the Golden Sutra Pavilion. It would be better for her to find a way to keep him in the Juelan Secret Realm forever.

Xie Mingzhu was thinking silently, and no one knew what she was thinking.

Si Yu was extremely excited. After he confirmed that there was indeed a very obvious fluctuation of spiritual energy below, everyone immediately became excited.

If they could get this Fire Spirit Crystal, the storage bags that were stolen from them before would be nothing at all!

"Young Sect Master, why don't you let me go down and try!" Yi Xing was the first to speak.

Si Yu still trusted this talkative subordinate very much, and agreed without thinking.

After getting permission, Yi Xing first used his magic energy to wrap himself up, and then jumped into the lava spring, trying to find the spirit crystal from it.

But this lava spring was too deep. Yi Xing searched in it for nearly a quarter of an hour before he finally touched something.

But before he could be happy, the thing in his hand suddenly moved, and an attack came directly towards him, shattering his protective magic on the spot!

Yi Xing was startled, but fortunately the robes on his body also had defensive capabilities, which prevented him from being burned by the lava.

However, he also realized in an instant that there might be a monster hidden in this lava spring.

Yi Xing didn't dare to confront them head-on, so he could only return to the shore and tell the young sect leader about the situation one by one, and then discuss what to do.

Hearing that there was a monster hidden in the lava spring, Si Yu frowned subconsciously.

According to Yi Xing's description, the monster was obviously not very big and was not easy to find in the lava spring.

Si Yu and his companions went to great lengths to obtain the Fire Spirit Crystal. In the end, they even managed to hunt a fire-attributed monster and fished out the fire loach hidden in the lava spring.

After dealing with the monster, Si Yu did not let Yixing take action this time. Instead, he went out himself and jumped into the lava spring to look for treasures.

Fortunately, his luck was pretty good. Without any monsters to cause trouble, Si Yu quickly dived into the lava spring and found the beautiful crimson crystal in the pool of boiling lava.

Si Yu tentatively reached out to fish it out, and when he found that he was not burned, he excitedly grabbed the Fire Spirit Crystal and quickly went ashore.

Almost at the moment when the fire spirit crystal left the lava spring, the originally extremely hot lava spring began to slowly cool down from the bottom.

By the time Si Yu climbed up completely, the lava spring had already begun to solidify.

He spread out his palm and held up the Fire Spirit Crystal for everyone to see: "It is indeed worthy of being a Five Elements Spirit Crystal. Such a small piece actually has such great power!"

Xie Mingzhu looked at the beautiful crystal, her eyes filled with greed.

She tried to reach out and touch it, but the moment she was about to touch the Fire Spirit Crystal, her whole body froze.

After realizing that she couldn't move, Xie Mingzhu was still a little confused about what had happened.

But Si Yu, who was also unable to move, frowned for a moment. If he could move now, his gums would probably be bitten off.

Masked thief!

It’s them again!!

As soon as this thought came into Si Yu's mind, a cloth-wrapped hand lightly took the dazzling fire spirit crystal from his palm.

"Thank you for your hard work in helping us get the spirit crystal. To be honest, if you hadn't led the way, we wouldn't have known that there were such good things in the secret realm." Xie Liuyin approached Si Yu with a smile and praised him highly.

After doing all this, she still felt it was not enough, and deliberately waved the Fire Spirit Crystal in front of Si Yu and Xie Mingzhu.

"You really want this thing, right? What a pity, the Fire Spirit Crystal is ours now." After saying this, Xie Liuyin quickly put it away carefully, fearing that such an important treasure would be lost.

Suddenly, Xie Liuyin seemed to remember something, and took out another spirit crystal from her arms and slowly put it back into Si Yu's hand: "Oh, right, this is the treasure we found in the cave you stayed in before. You said you too, how could you just throw away such an important thing?"

"Luckily, we are kindhearted people and specially helped you find it. You don't have to be too grateful to me. After all, you gave us a spiritual crystal, so we should return the favor, right?"

Xie Liuyin smiled and waved at them, saying goodbye: "Goodbye, this time it's really goodbye, we won't bother you again in the future."

After saying that, this group of masked monks circulated their spiritual power and flew out in an instant. In just a few blinks of an eye, they completely disappeared.

Si Yu already hated these masked men in his heart. He swore in his heart that no matter what, he would never be fooled again this time.

Even if he has to turn the entire Juelan Secret Realm upside down, he will find those who dared to play tricks on him!

Time passed slowly. After an unknown amount of time, the power of the formation gradually disappeared, and Si Yu and the others were finally able to control their bodies.

He subconsciously wanted to order a few subordinates to chase those masked thieves, but before Si Yu could speak, the spirit crystal in his hand flashed white light.

By the time they reacted, the trapping array on the spirit crystal had already started to work, trapping them once again!

At this moment, Si Yu extremely regretted that he had thrown away the spirit crystal engraved with the formation out of anger. He really didn't expect that those masked thieves would be so shameless that they would use the formation he used against them on him!

But it's too late to say these things now. The formation has been activated, and they don't know how long they will have to stand here this time.

On the other hand, Xie Liuyin really didn't lie to Si Yu and the others this time.

She knew very well that after being fooled so many times, Si Yu must be completely furious this time and would probably try every possible means to find them.

In order to prevent her family from being caught accidentally, she decided to take Qiu Yu and others back to the camp first, and wait for half a month before going to find Xie Mingzhu and others to rob things.

However, Xie Liuyin did not expect that in the camp where she had not returned for a long time, there was now an uninvited guest who came just for her.
