581: Chapter 580: Grabbing Treasure from Quicksand 7 581: Chapter 580: Grabbing Treasure from Quicksand 7 Yin Qingsi subtly approached in that direction, just like the other cultivators focused solely on the Water Spirit Pearl.
She didn’t think this Yue Sect cultivator had found the Water Spirit Pearl but rather, after several days of hard work, wanted to change her mood and see who was employing the sa strategy as her.
She recognized all the true disciples of the Yue Sect, but she couldn’t figure out who would use the little Water Demons just like her?
As she drew closer, disregarding the tense atmosphere of the six little Water Demons ready for combat, she looked down towards the riverbed and saw that the Yue Sect cultivator had spread his limbs into a big “X,” facing down motionless as if he was a floating corpse.
Of course, he was not dead since there was still a faint circulation of the Five Elents in his body, but his odd posture was quite mysterious, which was very unbecoming of a cultivator.
What mattered was that she still couldn’t figure out who he was.
His entire face was buried in the thick sedint of the riverbed, with a faint Five Elents glow faintly circulating over his body.
She wondered which mysterious Five Elents Cultivation Technique it could be?
Five Elents is the most widespread Great Dao in the Cultivation World and is the most subdivided direction among all cultivation techniques, resulting in countless strange and wondrous skills deriving from it.
But in Yin Qingsi’s mory, for a cold and obscure Daoist lineage like the Yue Sect that favored Divine Strikes, such a bizarre thod of managing the Five Elents seed a bit overboard, didn’t it?
Was this a case of Divine Strikes possessing soone?
While she was still puzzled, she didn’t realize that her three little companions were getting restless.
Little Demons have their own thoughts too.
Their small group was often bullied by the Black Fish Spirit group and had long wanted to find an opportunity for revenge; like them, the little demons in the Flowing Sand River were common as carp crossing the river, without any powerful backing.
They also had never found a Great Demon to stand up for them, so they felt like now might be a chance?
Little Demons are very keen to attach themselves to the powerful because they lack the tight-knit system like humans.
To survive in the Flowing Sand River, they had to find ways on their own; banding together was one way, and latching onto the powerful was another.
Otherwise, they would not have been so easily exploited by Yin Qingsi—it was the subconscious desire for a powerful patron.
Unable to cling to their own Demon Ancestor, could clinging to a human also quench their thirst?
They didn’t understand what was wrong with the human in the Black Fish group.
In their simple cultivation understanding, such a condition was equivalent to a dead fish.
So, with a new powerful leg to stand on, could they seize this opportunity to teach the Black Fish group a lesson?
The Demon Clan, when compared to humans, tends to think more simply.
When they think of sothing, they do it; they couldn’t be bothered to consider if fighting in private was appropriate for such an occasion.
To have a satisfying fight and talk about it afterward is the most normal small demon mindset.
Because they knew, if they missed this chance, there might not be another human to help them.
So, with Yin Qingsi completely unprepared, the six little demons unexpectedly converged in one spot.
The little shrimp twisted the mouth of the Black Fish Spirit, the little crab clamped onto the Snake Spirit coiling around itself, and the little turtle and the Pig Dragon clashed together…
By the ti Yin Qingsi tried to stop them, it was too late.
Their pincers locked together, and there was no stopping until they disassembled so parts; the brawl between them was brutal due to their inherent toughness.
Such low-ranking demons, who had just awakened their demonic power not long ago, had no Divine Skills.
Brawling relied solely on brute force, sharp pincers, thick skin, and never letting go.
Amidst the rolling and tumbling, they churned the surrounding sedint into a dark miasma.
At the sa ti, they buried the person lying on the riverbed within it.
This was the first ti Yin Qingsi had encountered such a situation.
She had the ability to separate them, but she didn’t know if she should do it.
Would recklessly using mana affect the delicate balance of the Five Elents environnt around them?
Would she lose those three little friends from the Water Clan?
Although they were of low realm and their actions were laughable, they still had the innocence of children.
She had already used them once and now couldn’t bear to abandon them like worn-out shoes.
Helping or not helping both seed wrong, leaving her, usually so astute and decisive, at a loss on how to proceed.
The commotion, of course, did not escape the notice of the surrounding cultivators, who felt equally helpless when they realized that six foolish little Water Demons were brawling.
Human cultivators certainly were not willing to reprimand them under the watchful eyes of nurous Great Demons on the scene, while a group of Great Water Demons thought such matters were of no great concern.
In fact, if this could affect the human’s Five Elents perception, that might even be a good thing…
With the tacit consent of the various powers around, letting it be beca the collective choice.
To avoid getting involved, those nearby would deliberately or inadvertently move away from this area, with Great Cultivators avoiding the skirmish of the lessers—a fairly unbelievable sight, but such are the fantastical affairs in the realm of cultivation.
Only Yin Qingsi remained on the spot, sowhat awkwardly, as if unsure whether to stay or leave.
She felt she should stop them and decided to do so, not with mana, but with physical strength; even if she was not skilled in physical combat, the Taoist Body of a Natural Realm cultivator was still more than a match for any little demon.
Just as she was about to approach and intervene, suddenly, a minuscule abnormality in the Five Elents caught her attention.
The next mont, a monuntal wave of Xuan Water rushed towards the riverbed, its force was not ant for re probing, but rather carried the posture of combat.
She was cautious in her actions but did not lose her decisiveness.
When she sensed sothing amiss below and the possibility of the presence of a Water Spirit Pearl, she could no longer adhere to the tacit agreent against fighting.
Whoever seized the Water Spirit Pearl would own it; the next step was to leave the riverbed and surface, with a Golden Core Upper Cultivator from the Qin Sect responsible for clearing the aftermath.
Her only duty was to get the Water Spirit Pearl out!
The Xuan Water wave targeted the Yue Sect cultivator sprawled out in all directions; she could clearly feel that the abnormal fluctuation of the Water Elent was emanating from this individual, who had all along been feigning death.
How did he ascertain the location of the Water Elent Pearl?
How did he collect it?
She didn’t want to know now, there was no ti to ponder these things.
Her task was simple: to kill him and seize the pearl!
The ti left for her was short, there was no need for disguise.
Once those Great Water Demons and True Inheritor of the Yue Sect arrived, she alone would stand no chance.
No sooner had the Xuan Water wave been released than the Golden Water Needle closely followed suit…
She was a person with extensive combat experience.
Considering this individual now possessed the Water Elent Pearl, his control over Water System Techniques was unpredictable; thus, following her Techniques, she lunged forward with her whole body.
The Qin Sect had an ancient martial tradition within the Daoist community, giving it a clear advantage in close-quarters fighting; hence the safest approach in battle was to get in close, leveraging superior close-combat skills to secure victory!
Her concerns were justified; neither the Xuan Water wave nor the Golden Water Needle had any effect on the man.
With the protection of the Water Spirit Pearl, any Five Elents Power was futile against him.
It was a re few dozen feet, the Water Elent Techniques ineffective, and she was already close to the Yue Sect cultivator buried in the surging sands; coiling her body, she grabbed his ankle with one hand and spun her body, executing the exclusive Qin Sect close-quarters technique, the Tight Body Immobilization.
