Legend of Swordsman

nd some in the first few years, but later on… More and more experts came to this area and our chances were lowered.
Even if we did manage to find it, other experts would hurry over and fight us for it.
Luckily, the three of us joined forces in the fights and scraped through them, or else…” Yi sighed.

Jian Wushuang had nothing else to say for he knew that his friend was telling the truth.
In the past 17 years, countless experts joined the search for Life Elixirs.
Battles were unavoidable and they had only gotten more intense over the years.
Though the three of them could work together, their combined strength was still pretty average compared to other experts in this area.

“Since you’re around the area, do you know what happened in the sinkhole that day? Did a treasure appear?” Jian Wushuang asked.

“The treasure did appear but it’s still in the early stage of incubation, so it’s buried within.
Two hours ago, a Green Fire Palace expert broke into the sinkhole out of curiosity.
He couldn’t see anything except a dazzling golden light.
When he tried to approach the golden light, a defensive barrier stopped him,” Yi answered.

“What?” Jian Wushuang’s eyes lit up with surprise.
“A golden light? A barrier?”

“Since the treasure is protected by a defensive barrier, it can only mean that it is controlled by some spirit.
Judging from the rich aroma of elixir, the treasure is likely a palace treasure for storing elixirs,” Gu King replied.

Jian Wushuang immediately understood his explanation.

“It’s the same for Jin Kingdom experts.
In the end, everyone came to the same conclusion that we should just wait patiently for the actual birth of the treasure.
Once it’s completely revealed, we will then fight for it,” Meng Long added.

“Alright, let’s just wait for it.”

Jian Wushuang had no choice but to hover around and quietly await the birth of the treasure with his friends.

Before they knew it, a month had gone by just like that.

During this period, the scent of the elixir that emitted from the bottom of the sinkhole never once dissipated.
The entire area was still saturated with the mighty aura.

But the treasure in the sinkhole had yet to be revealed.

In addition, experts from both Green Fire Palace and the Jin Kingdom, who were previously looking for Life Elixirs, had all came forth to gather around the sinkhole.

Everyone stayed put and quietly anticipated the birth of the treasure.

“There are so many experts here!”

Jian Wushuang could feel the different intense auras drifting in the air within his field of consciousness.

From what he could tell, there were over 30 Celestial Masters here.
His field of consciousness was limited as he was only in the Eternal Realm.
It could vaguely cover certain areas near the sinkhole but not anything further than that.

Fortunately, Jian Wushuang had the token of Green Fire Palace.
With that, he could clearly know the number of their allies in the area.

“There’s a total of 42 experts from Green Fire Palace in this area?” Jian Wushuang was stunned.

They were all Celestial Masters!

Moreover, he was counting only his allies.
The Jin Kingdom would always have the upper hand in the battle if they were to fight against Green Fire Palace.
Obviously, they would have even more experts on their side.

That meant there were more than 42 experts from the Jin Kingdom here!
