Chapter 267 - A Unlucky Encounter
"Ah! Is our luck really that good? These are all star grass herbs! And by my senses, they are around 200-years old!" Pao's eagerness overflowed as he licked his lips.
The same anticipation glossed his friends and even the Dragon siblings' faces.
In regards to special Martial cultivation resources, Huang Dai and Xun diligently read up on them.
Resources like star-grass herbs are remarkable for one's Inner World development.
These star-grass herbs contain incredibly dense and pure nature energy. Absorbing it into one's bodies will allow their Inner World's foundation to enhance and for their Spiritual Sea to receive mental nourishment.
The age signifies just how much nature essence it had condensed from the environment. And because of the massive abundance of nature essence, the age would be double in terms of real-world time.
The star-grass herbs had a gorgeous appearance; they were all bright green, in the shape of a star form and streaks of faint green lights flowing out.
Within this area, the amount of star-grass herbs is actually in the hundreds of dozens!
It was completely enough for a fair distribution of profits.
"Come on, let's quickly this out before any mishaps occur." As Pao spoke, he was already walking towards the star-grass herbs with a pep in his step.
The others also quickly went to work.
After a few minutes, they all cleared out all of the star-grass herbs.
Pao, Zhou, and Ning took the majority of the star-grass herbs.
While Huang Dai and Xun purposely took a smaller amount. There was a good reason for this; the Dragon siblings had an innate awareness.
Even though there were plenty of star-grass herbs here, Pao, Zhou, and Ning's greediness was clearly evident.
The way their eyes lit up spoke volumes to both Dai and Xun. If they tried to extend their reach, the Dragon siblings could guess disagreements would likely rise.
It may seem a bit petty, but Huang Dai and Xun could partially understand Pao's group's eager greed.
Lone cultivators and even low-order Holy Lands or Holy Martial families have incredible tough times gaining reliable resources.
The most these types of people or forces can gain are cultivation resources that come with various negative effects.
Some Spiritual herbs can forcefully enhance an Inner World but also make its space chaotically unstable, basically ruining one's future prospects.
Furthermore, their Spiritual Sea lacks any development, leading to another roadblock in their cultivation.
Pills that are not crafted by World Spirit Masters with healing attainment are bound to carry negative effects.
Many of them can forcefully rise strength but permanently cripple one's future potential.
And the sum one needs to pay for a healing attainment World Spirit Master isn't anything lone cultivators or low-order forces can possibly muster.
The quench for resources is a natural part of cultivation.
No matter how talented one can be, there are numerous departments where the pure natural condensed Divine Essence of Heaven and Earth far outstrips talent.
This especially holds true for World Spirit Masters as they have a far more difficult time raising their Spirit energy levels.
Huang Dai and Xun may indeed have the potential to raise their talent to Divine Ruler levels. But just this wasn't enough for their cultivation to reach the Divine Origin realm in just their mere 20s.
One must remember that for even those in the Divine Plane, Low God Galaxies realms, and even Mid God Galaxies realms, it would be all but impossible for even an average genius to reach the Divine Origin Realm.
They can expand all of their lifespans and cultivate in the purest of environments but would still be unable to take the first Divine step.
And this is where cultivation resources prove their immense usefulness.
Reliable cultivation resources negate all harmful effects while greatly enhancing one's cultivation. Furthermore, Holy Lands on the level and above the Huang Dragon Imperial Palace have numerous ancestor-level cultivators who can impeach their Martial comprehensions to their youngins.
It was only through a combination of these factors could Huang Dai, Xun, and the other Royal children rush right through the Mortal realms of cultivations.
Even Cain, Amber, and Kali were experiencing the grandness of Divine Ruler Holy Lands.
Talent indeed plays a significant and even a crucial role. But without the proper cultivation resources, it will only go on to be a colossal waste.
From all this, it can be seen why Pao's groups have high, eager greed for the star-grass herbs.
To them, this was like gaining a shortcut that could shave off dozens or even hundreds of years of painfully slow progress.
Understanding this, Huang Dai and Xun could take a step back. In any case, they were here only for experience in the first place.
"Good, really good!" Pao, Zhou, and Ning were heartily laughing the entire time.
The gazes they flashed to the Dragon siblings were mixed in appreciation for their recent actions. As competent enough cultivators, they all could see the unspoken reasons for it.
Now, Pao's group was becoming even more receptive to the Dragon siblings. Goodwill birthed in their Martial Hearts and has the potential to go a long way.
Pao swiftly took out his Spiritual Compass again and spoke in a high-spirited tone, "Alright! Let's keep this stroke going. Maybe, we can even find something of greater value."
Like this, Pao's group set off again under Pao's leadership.
The group left the dead-end room while keeping their Divine Senses stretched out.
Throughout that whole treasure spree, none of them ever relaxed on keeping their Divine Sense-up. At any time, they were prepared for an ambush for either vicious beasts or a group of Martial cultivators.
Thankfully for them, it seems as if lady luck was on their side.
Furthermore, when leaving and walking back on the road, the theme of luck still permeated with them.
No dangers have yet to reach their group, no matter how far they walked.
Their vigilance was kept up, but at this point, Pao's group was beginning to develop some suspicions.
These suspicions weren't able to gather further as the group soon reached another dead-end room.
Once again, their eyes brightly lit up as they swept their gazes throughout the treasure-filled room.
"So many low-grade crystal sun beads! It must be around in the tens of thousands. Plus, Spirit White Flowers! From my senses, they have to be around 300 years old."
Pao brightly commented as he focused his Divine Sense around the room.
Scattered in abundance were small, light orange crystal beads that sparkled with luminous intensity, causing the room to gloss up.
These were the low-grade crystal sun beads.
Mixed within them were tall, pure white flowers. These Spirit White flowers have beautiful skins appearing as glorious as fresh, pure snow.
The value of this room easily matched the last and was perhaps even greater!
Now they were getting double the treasure with a far higher quantity.
Like like last time, Pao's group took a few seconds to inspect their Divine Senses, making sure there wasn't any danger.
When everything appeared absolutely perfect, Pao's group began to briskly walk over to the treasures.
None of them were suspecting anything; their Divine Senses were seemingly perfect.
However, when they all walked several meters into the room, a massive white glow silently formed on the ceiling behind them.
In an instant, the white glow expanded, engulfing the entire room!
'Chi!'
The white glow blinded Pao's group vision with a soft humming sound.
"Shit!" Pao, Zhou, and Ning cursed, wariness rapidly rising within them.
Huang Dai and Xun were calmer, expecting the unexpected but were still ready for danger.
None of them were omnipotent. For unexpected situations, they could only adapt and overcome.
In this instance, they all tried to quickly revolve all of the energies within their Inner World.
But upon releasing soul energy into their Inner World, Pao, Zhou, Ning, and even Huang Dai and Xun momentarily froze.
Great shock ran through their eyes as Pao blurted out, "What is this?! I can't fully use my Inner World! This formation is suppressing 40% of my Inner World!"
"Damn it! It's the same for me too!"
"I barely saw any World Spirit Masters with the groups. How could we be unlucky to encounter one?"
Both Zhou and Ning unleashed their own curses while trying to resist this Inner World suppression.
It was like a restrictive force had engulfed a good portion of their Inner World, blocking off any attempt of gathering their full power. Be it in either Divine Qi or Divine Law essence, they were successfully suppressed.
Huang Dai and Xun were silent, but their bodies were on full alert. Feeling the suppression, they were about to begin worrying.
But, for some peculiar reason, this Inner World suppression started to exude weird sensations that made the blood in their veins gradually stimulate.
Before they could figure out why they all heard a calm voice speaking in a surprisingly polite tone.
"Excuse us for the abrupt meeting, but we can hope you can understand. We're all are here for the same thing so let's calmly discuss."
Snapping their attentions behind them, Pao's group narrowed their eyes as they saw clumps of brown essence gathering on the ground.
By the power of Divine Earth Source Laws, five people quickly rose from the ground, brown essence covering each of their forms.
When they each fully appeared in Pao's group vision, the brown essence dispersed, revealing three men and two men.
Each of them wore Spiritual armor and was purposely exuding strong momentum.
It would be an effective tactic. An average group would already feel largely intimidated because of the Inner World suppression.
However, Pao, Zhou, Ning, Dai, and Xun quickly analyzed the situation. With a glance, they were able to tell who was their leader.
At the front and center of the group was a tall, rough-looking man. He had a seemingly welcoming smile dashing his face, but his eyes carried a vague indifferent look.
A long scar that ran down from his forehead to his lips also added to his daunting momentum.
But above all, this man was the same as Pao, a 3rdfall stage Great Divine Sea warrior!
The rest of his group had two 2ndfall stages and two 3rdfall stages Divine Origin warriors.
In this resources cave, this is a formidable lineup for sure.
Just from 2ndfall to 3rdfall, the quality and quantity of Divine Qi and Divine Source Laws receive numerous degrees of enhancement.
Pao, Zhou, and Ning couldn't help but feel anxiety shoot through their bodies.
But even when knowing how this would go down, Pao calmly asked, "Just what is it do you want to discuss with us?"
The scar-faced man didn't hesitate as he confidently said, "The last spoils you received was pretty good, right? We will be satisfied with just 80% of it.. And for this room, we can leave you with 20% of the spoils. I understand it may be overbearing, but it seems fair in your situation, right?"
The same anticipation glossed his friends and even the Dragon siblings' faces.
In regards to special Martial cultivation resources, Huang Dai and Xun diligently read up on them.
