Chapter 142 Junior Sister Zhong, You're So Lucky
Zhong Lingxin and her friends chatted and laughed as they walked back.
She remembered her other task—drawing maps.
Every disciple who enters the ancient battlefield is required to draw a map.
The sect will integrate all the maps drawn by its disciples to create a larger map.
The ancient battlefield is too vast; very few people would probably venture to places further than Flying Dragon City.
Just as she was diligently drawing the map, two evil cultivators set their sights on her. One of them swung his nine-ringed sword, and from the nine rings floated a laughing ghost that pounced on Zhong Lingxin.
Zhong Lingxin hadn't had a serious fight in a long time. She raised her fist high and unleashed a long-awaited powerful punch at the nine-ringed sword.
The laughing ghost on the nine-ringed sword was smashed apart by Zhong Lingxin's punch, and the nine-ringed sword also fell to the ground with a "clang".
Zhong Lingxin kicked her nine-ringed saber and slammed it into another evil cultivator who was thrusting a spear at her.
The nine-ringed saber struck the tip of the spear, causing the evil cultivator's spear to lurch backward. The spear shaft then slammed heavily into the evil cultivator's chest, penetrating straight into his chest cavity.
The evil cultivator screamed and flew backward, crashing to the ground a great distance away.
The evil cultivator wielding the nine-ringed saber didn't bother to pick it up. Enduring the pain of his broken right hand, he leaped onto his flying sword and tried to escape.
Just as he leaped onto the flying sword, a long sword pierced his dantian.
A hearty laugh rang out: "Junior Sister Zhong, I'm so happy to see you!"
Zhong Lingxin lowered her fist and smiled, "I didn't expect to run into Senior Brother Ge here. Are you preparing to go back, Senior Brother Ge?"
The visitors were Ge Hongtian, who was visiting the Yuanzong sect, and his fellow disciples, totaling nearly a hundred people.
Ge Hongtian introduced everyone: "This is Junior Sister Zhong Lingxin from the Qingyun Sect, whom I met during my training in the Mangyuan Mountains. She is extremely forthright and righteous. Junior Sister Zhong, these are my fellow disciples. This is our Nascent Soul Master Uncle Gu Ping, who is leading the team from the Chaoyuan Sect. This is Nascent Soul Master Uncle Sang Qi, and this is..."
The cultivators of Chaoyuan Sect were all very curious about Zhong Lingxin. Wasn't she pulled into the magic treasure hut by Ye Yuanzun? Ye Yuanzun was dead, and the magic treasure hut disappeared. How did she survive?
A round-faced Foundation Establishment female disciple asked the question that everyone was wondering: "Junior Sister Zhong, we haven't heard from you for so long, we all thought you were dead. How did you survive?"
Zhong Lingxin smiled bitterly: "I don't know how I survived."
That night, Yuanzun called me into his magic treasure hut and kicked me in the chest. I thought I was going to die.
But for some reason, I suddenly fell from the sky and crashed into a cliff.
The injury was compounded, and the pain woke me up.
Later I fainted from the pain again, and then I woke up from the pain again.
I woke up in pain, then felt dizzy, and this went on for a long time before I felt a little better. After taking some healing pills, I slowly started cultivating to recover.
A few days ago, the cliff suddenly collapsed, and the time plate in my storage ring started to heat up.
Seeing that it was almost time, I slowly started walking back.
Alas, unlike you all, you all have rosy cheeks, which clearly indicates a good harvest.
I spent ten years recuperating on that cliff, just in time to get out."
A disciple of the Chaoyuan Sect's eyes lit up: "Junior Sister Zhong, were you recuperating on that cliff with its excellent spiritual energy?"
Zhong Lingxin hesitated for a moment: "Is the spiritual energy extremely good? It's just so-so, but the malevolent energy is quite strong. I even saw remnant souls at the bottom of that cliff."
Another disciple glanced at Zhong Lingxin: "With a remnant soul, how can you still be alive?"
Zhong Lingxin smiled wryly: "There's a defensive array, right? Who comes in without a defensive array?"
Everyone nodded; indeed, they all carried defensive formations.
Soon, the conversation turned to the collapsed mountain peak.
"Junior Sister Zhong, you're really lucky. Did you know that there's a spirit stone mine at the foot of that mountain? The reason you recovered so quickly is probably because you were sitting on that spirit mountain."
"Yes, it's possible that the remnant soul absorbed all the spirit stone ore, and then the mountain collapsed."
"Yes, Junior Sister Zhong, the remnant soul ran very fast. Our Uncle Sang was the fastest. He only saw a flash of light before the remnant soul disappeared. It must have been clever of the remnant soul to know that the collapse of the mountain would alert other remnant souls and cultivators, so it ran away in advance."
"Oh, is that so? I was wondering why the mountain collapsed and my array plate was smashed into it. I was terrified of that remnant soul, so I tore off a teleportation talisman and ran away."
“That makes sense. Uncle Sang saw a golden light, which must have been Junior Sister Zhong’s teleportation talisman.”
Zhong Lingxin never expected to run into Ge Hongtian first.
It's good to have met Ge Hongtian; at least Ge Hongtian's character is trustworthy.
Ge Hongtian also told Zhong Lingxin about his discovery of the evil cultivators and the ancient battlefield in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River: "After Junior Sister Zhong and Uncle Xuanyuan left that day, I took several disciples of the Chaoyuan Sect to investigate upstream."
There are many phantom crystals upstream, and we were almost tricked by the evil cultivators.
It was another evil cultivator who was too greedy and wanted to kill us.
My soul fire was flickering violently when an ancestor of mine arrived and saved us. He also discovered the cave where the evil cultivators were hiding and finally confirmed the ancient battlefield.
Afterwards, Ge Hongtian introduced what happened on the ancient battlefield, what happened in the Lingyun Sect camp, and the spirit stone mine discovered in Flying Dragon City.
Several disciples of the Chaoyuan Sect lamented that Zhong Lingxin hadn't managed to mine the ore.
They haven't even finished mining such a huge spirit stone mine; I really want to go in and mine some more.
Gu Ping laughed and said, "Don't be too greedy. We've dug almost all of it; there's nothing left to dig out."
Everyone nodded in agreement. With ten or twenty thousand people digging at the same time, they had indeed dug almost all the way through.
Instead of picking up another spirit stone or two, it would be better to go outside and find some spirit ore and herbs.
In short, as the most advanced ancient battlefield, everyone among them earned a bulging storage bag.
Zhong Lingxin was a very easy-going person. She chatted and laughed with Ge Hongtian all the way, and got along very well with the disciples of Chaoyuan Sect.
Upon reaching the exit, several disciples of the Chaoyuan Sect invited Zhong Lingxin to visit them whenever she ever had the chance to train at the Chaoyuan Sect.
Zhong Lingxin smiled and agreed.
At the exit, several bigwigs from various sects were waiting.
There are both righteous cultivators and evil cultivators.
Some were very happy, while others had bloodshot eyes and faces full of grief and indignation.
Those who were happy were naturally those whose sect disciples had not suffered many losses.
Those whose faces are filled with grief and indignation must have suffered enormous losses.
For example, the Lingyun Sect, and the five major sects of evil cultivators.
The soul flames left behind by their disciples in the sect have almost all been extinguished.
They wanted to come and see what had happened on the ancient battlefield that had caused them such heavy losses!
Disciples emerged one after another from the ancient battlefield.
The disciples who came out vividly recounted the news of the Li Hun Sect's sneak attack on the Ling Yun Sect, the spirit stone mine in Fei Long City, and the powerful remnant souls within the spirit stone mine.
When Zhong Lingxin walked out of the ancient battlefield, she was walking among the disciples of the Chaoyuan Sect, and for a moment no one noticed her.
