The male cultivator headed by Danfeng frowned, secretly hating others in his heart. He shouldn't have been soft-hearted and let these trash from Xuanjianfeng ruin things.
His mind raced, and he said, "Everyone, please listen to me. Danfeng has never thought of monopolizing this Pure Heart Lotus. It's just that the Pure Heart Lotus is not yet mature. It is completely unnecessary for us to fight among ourselves."
The female cultivator from Xuanjian Peak sneered, seeing through his trick of stalling for time, and said softly, "Two."
The male cultivator from Danfeng had an ugly look on his face. If they were not let go, they would really start a fight with the disciples from other peaks.
Right now, the people from the Main Peak and the Weapon Peak haven't arrived yet. If the strength of the Dan Peak is consumed here, it will undoubtedly affect the subsequent fight for the Pure Heart Lotus.
He took a deep breath, and before the female cultivator from Xuanjian Peak shouted "three", he took a step aside.
"Since you insist on going in, I, Danfeng, naturally cannot be the bad guy. It's just that the Jiao beast is vicious, so don't blame me for not telling you in advance."
The female cultivator from Xuanjian Peak snorted softly, put the heavy sword on her shoulder, and walked forward first.
Being able to resolve the issue without taking action is undoubtedly the best outcome.
After all, the one guarding the Pure Heart Lotus is no ordinary monster.
Even if a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage encountered a ferocious dragon of the same level, he would not dare to be careless, let alone these Qi Condensation disciples.
If you are not careful, you will lose your life.
Disciples from other peaks followed the cultivator from Xuanjian Peak in. Seeing this, Xu Chunniang mixed in and followed in.
Finally, only a few Danfeng disciples were left in this cave.
"Brother, if we let them in, will the Pure Heart Lotus be taken away by them?" someone asked uneasily.
"Don't worry, a Green Water Dragon in the Foundation Establishment Stage is not that easy to deal with. At least it is impossible to kill it within half an hour."
A calculating look flashed in the eyes of the leading male cultivator. Once those people and the Green Water Dragon had fought each other to a point, they would be able to reap the benefits.
"Tell the brothers and sisters waiting inside not to take action yet. Once those people have exhausted most of the evil dragon's strength, we will join forces with the main peak and weapon peak to snatch the Pure Heart Lotus. If anyone dares to stand in your way, kill them."
When everyone heard this, excitement flashed in their eyes.
By joining forces with the main peak and the weapon peak, the Pure Heart Lotus will surely be in their pockets.
Xu Chunniang mingled quietly among the inner disciples and walked towards the depths of the cave.
Disciples from various inner sect peaks were mixed in with them, and for a moment no one noticed that an outer sect disciple had mixed in with them.
After walking through several narrow corridors, they arrived at a cave that was slightly smaller than the previous one.
At the innermost part of the cave, there is a pool of water with lotus flowers blooming in it. The lotus is clear and not gaudy, and has a kind of otherworldly beauty.
When the Danfeng disciples who stayed behind in the cave saw everyone rushing in, their expressions changed slightly, and they guessed that something must have happened outside.
They exchanged glances and retreated to the rear.
"It's really the Pure Heart Lotus!"
A disciple stared at the green lotus blooming not far away, with fanaticism in his eyes.
Others were equally jealous and had mixed feelings.
The Pure Heart Lotus is about to mature. Once it matures, the nine lotus seeds will surely become the object of everyone's competition.
At that time, they will not only face the threat from the ferocious dragon, but also the robbery from others.
And as the first Danfeng disciple to find the Pure Heart Lotus, how could he just watch them snatch the lotus seeds
The female cultivator from Xuanjian Peak who had come forward earlier had a thoughtful look in her eyes.
"Everyone, how about we join forces to deal with the dragon beast in the pond first, and then divide the seeds of the Pure Heart Lotus equally?"
The leaders of the other peaks looked at each other and remained silent.
This method seems feasible, but if someone takes advantage of the time when they are dealing with the dragon beast and directly snatches the Pure Heart Lotus away, wouldn't it be a waste of time
"Or we can avoid the dragon beast, snatch the Pure Heart Lotus away the moment it matures, and then run away." Someone suggested.
"No. This dragon beast has been hovering in the pool for a long time, waiting for the Pure Heart Lotus to mature. If we really do this, we will be chased by the Foundation Establishment monsters and they will defeat us one by one."
Soon someone shook his head, denying this approach, "And no matter how fast you are, can you be as fast as a dragon?"
Just as everyone was frowning and thinking of countermeasures, the green lotus in the pond underwent some changes.
The petals of the blooming green lotus began to fall, starting from the outermost layer and then from the outside to the inside.
Correspondingly, the spiritual energy in the inner layer became more and more abundant, and small lotus pods gradually began to grow.
The lotus pod is as natural as the finest green jade. As soon as the nine tiny lotus seeds show a tiny tip, they emit a refreshing and peaceful fragrance that is refreshing to the heart.
"The Pure Heart Lotus is about to mature!"
Someone exclaimed, which immediately attracted everyone's attention, and everyone present looked towards the Pure Heart Lotus.
Then I saw that the petals of the Pure Heart Lotus in the center of the pond had all fallen off, revealing a small lotus pod.
As everyone was excited, several ripples appeared in the water, as if something was about to break out of the water.
When the female cultivator from Xuanjian Peak saw this scene, her expression changed slightly.
"Oh no! The Jade Water Dragon seems to be coming out. Let's work together to get rid of the dragon first, and then fight for the Pure Heart Lotus with our own abilities. Disciples of Xuanjian Peak, listen up! Quickly form a sword formation and be ready to kill the enemy at any time!"
Upon hearing this, several disciples from Xuanjian Peak all looked solemn. They took out their flying swords without hesitation and began to form a formation.
Upon hearing this, the disciples from other peaks no longer had any objections and used their own unique methods.
Although the Pure Heart Lotus is wonderful, if you want to get it, you must get rid of the Green Water Dragon that is guarding it.
For a moment, all kinds of formations and talismans were flying everywhere, and several disciples from the Beast Taming Peak released the spiritual beasts they had raised.
The waves in the lotus pond became increasingly larger. Before the Green Water Dragon showed up, the water level in the pond rose sharply and soon overflowed from the pond, spreading towards where everyone was standing.
The green water dragon emerged from the water, and a rain of arrows was fired from the sky, shooting towards the cultivators in all directions.
Facing the foundation-building beast, everyone dared not be careless. They used various means to resist the rain of arrows. At the same time, all kinds of spiritual weapons and spells were thrown at the Green Water Dragon.
Just as this green water dragon was fighting with the monks, there was movement coming from underwater.
"Did you hear any sound? There seems to be something under the water. Could it be another monster?"
"It's unlikely. How could a monster like the Green Water Dragon allow other monsters to exist in its territory? Unless there is another Green Water hidden in this lotus pond..."
The other man spoke with a smile in a relaxed tone, but before he could finish his words, he suddenly froze, opened his mouth wide, and looked in the direction of the pool in shock.
A green dragon swam quickly towards the Pure Heart Lotus and bit the entire lotus, trying to bite off the entire lotus pod.
Everyone was shocked by this sudden change and was unable to react for a while. They could only watch it all happen.
