Chapter 573: Heavenly Mechanism Mansion

Lin Zhangqing couldn't believe it upon hearing this!

How could there be such a coincidence, and coupled with Song Junxue's previous attitude, it wasn't like this at all.

He wasn't a greenhorn who couldn't walk when seeing a beautiful female cultivator, so he still wouldn't easily believe them.

So he continued to ask: "Then why didn't you take the treasure yesterday, but waited until today, and even gathered so many fellow Daoists? As far as I know, even if there really is a Wood Tooth Crystal below, I estimate at most there are only six; why gather so many fellow Daoists?"

Hearing Lin Zhangqing's question, Song Junxue said with a smile: "It is very normal for Fellow Daoist Zhang to have such questions! Because when I arrived here yesterday, it was already very late, and it wasn't suitable to directly take the treasure.

So I decided to wait until today to take action.

Unexpectedly, last night, so many Black Crystal Army Ants suddenly popped out.

And what's fatal is that there is an entrance to an army ant nest beneath this huge peak.

Last night, I saw with my own eyes countless First-Tier army ants and over a thousand Second-Tier army ants going in and out below! So if we really want to take the treasure, we must gather as many people as possible; otherwise, we might really never return! That is the situation; Fellow Daoist Zhang believes me now, right?"

Song Junxue said so much, and although she explained the situation, it really didn't move Lin Zhangqing.

And since he knew there was a treasure below, why must he join forces with them?

It would be a very good choice for him to take action first, or to sit back and reap the benefits; he didn't necessarily have to be led by the nose by Song Junxue.

So, just as Lin Zhangqing looked indifferent and was about to refuse,

Song Junxue continued: "Of course, the most important thing is that although this space is not very stable and there are wandering spatial rifts everywhere,

as far as the current situation is concerned, it will take quite some time for this space to collapse; it could be a month, two months.

It could also be a hundred years, two hundred years, or even a thousand years. How much lifespan do we Foundation Establishment cultivators have? So we simply can't afford to wait! Fellow Daoist, have you discovered this huge mountain peak? It is almost located in the very center of the entire secret realm.

And the wood-attribute treasure beneath the mountain peak, according to my speculation, is very likely the stabilizing object that maintains the stability of this space!

Once this treasure is taken away or destroyed by us, this space will naturally disintegrate rapidly.

And as long as we use this space collapse, it will definitely break the spatial barrier, which will surely win a sliver of survival for all of us.

Otherwise, everyone will either end up feeding the army ants or be trapped to death here.

So even if it's not for the treasure, please discard other prejudices, Fellow Daoist, and strive for a chance to escape alive!"

Lin Zhangqing listened to Song Junxue's words and looked at her with new eyes! At the very least, when he contacted Song Junxue earlier, she was very cold, and her personality should have been very aloof.

Now, for this chance to escape alive, she had to restrain her personality and preferences. Standing out firmly to organize and gather as many people as possible was something Lin Zhangqing admired quite a bit! So he hesitated for a moment before asking: "Then if we finally see that the treasure is really a Wood Tooth Crystal, how does Fellow Daoist Song plan to distribute it?"

Song Junxue heard the intent in his words and was very happy in her heart.

Therefore, she said with a smile: "When that time really comes, it will definitely be up to each person's own ability!

Do you still expect others to yield it to you?"

Hearing this answer, Lin Zhangqing was overjoyed; if that was the case, agreeing to join them wouldn't be bad at all! So he said very readily: "Good! I agree to join this operation, but for the final treasure, everyone will rely on their own ability!"

And Song Junxue and the others were very happy to hear that another cultivator had joined; this way, their chances of survival naturally became a bit larger! After all, only cultivators who had witnessed yesterday's ant tide knew how terrifying these little things were! Song Junxue smiled and nodded: "That's great! Let me introduce these companions to Fellow Daoist Zhang; I also just met them today! This is Fellow Daoist Li Youshu!

This is Fellow Daoist Ye Chuji..."

It took a little time for Lin Zhangqing and the other six people to get to know each other, and everyone exchanged greetings.

But they were only considered acquaintances and didn't have any deep friendship!

After getting to know everyone, Lin Zhangqing asked: "Now that we have eight people, when shall we take the treasure!"

Song Junxue thought for a moment and said: "Including you, eight people are still too few; let's wait two more days! Two days later, no matter how many people there are, we will choose to take action at night, when the Black Crystal Army Ants go out to forage and the nest is relatively empty! Otherwise, with the entire burrow filled with army ants, even if we gathered all five hundred cultivators, there would be no possibility of success!"

Hearing that they only needed to wait two more days, Lin Zhangqing nodded and said nothing more! Afterward, he entered the Heavenly Mechanism Mansion where they were hiding with everyone!

Unexpectedly, upon entering, Lin Zhangqing was greatly surprised; inside was a three-courtyard Heavenly Mechanism Mansion.

What is a Heavenly Mechanism Mansion? It can actually be understood as a low-grade portable cave abode; although this kind of portable cave abode has a certain spatial attribute, it has no growth potential! Whatever scale it was when refined, it would remain that scale in the future, but the only benefit is that it is convenient for travel.

And one can also use this portable mansion to set up formations in advance.

When the portable mansion is released, the corresponding formations are naturally considered set up.

Therefore, some Heavenly Mechanism Mansions are specially refined into mobile war fortresses.

Most importantly, this kind of Heavenly Mechanism Mansion is a very rare item; it is a specialty product of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, a super sect of the Xuan Yan Continent.

Even the most ordinary Heavenly Mechanism Mansion has a price that definitely exceeds a Third-Tier magical treasure; ordinary cultivators simply cannot afford it, and of course, it is very difficult to find a way to buy one! This Heavenly Mechanism Mansion, plus the Auspicious Blue-Eyed Golden Rhinoceros mentioned earlier, and the knowledge that far exceeds ordinary cultivators—these things simply aren't things that ordinary cultivators could possess!

So this also gave Lin Zhangqing a reminder that this Song Junxue could absolutely not be a scattered cultivator.

Her background was very simple; she was very likely a person with a great background.
