Chapter 218
Brayden’s damaged figure fell heavily on the ground with a muffled bang, splashing large amounts of blood everywhere. At that time, Brayden’s gaze was disorganized, and there was no sound coming from him anymore. However, with the big hole that suddenly appeared on him, he looked highly savage. As his blood was yet to dry up, blood gushed out uncontrollably from his wounds, and in the blink of an eye, Brayden’s corpse where covered with his blood.
Marsha and Sebastian, who was still able to stand, went to Yohan, Heidi, and Nana to support them. Among them, Yohan was the one injured the most. First, his buttocks were stabbed by the alpha gopher’s long hair. Next, he directly suffered Brayden’s Blood Devouring Palm. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
Thankfully, Yohan‘s meridians were not damaged, and the spiritual Qi in him was still flowing smoothly. After Sebastian gave Yohan a few healing pills, Yohan meditated and took a rest. Soon, his complexion appeared much better, and he stopped bleeding too. As for Heidi and Nana, their injuries were much lighter than Yohan’s, and they were fine after taking the pills.
Later, everyone cultivated for about an hour. When they once again turned to look at each other, they noticed a hint of joy and excitement in each other’s eyes, as well as a full sense of accomplishment. With everyone working together, they managed to kill a peak third-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivator this time. Although Brayden’s strength was greatly reduced as he was about to ascend, everyone’s concerted effort could not be ignored.
After the battle, the few of them developed an approval for one another. Before Marsha joined the team, Sebastian and the others often did tasks together, but those missions were relatively more straightforward. Unlike that time, they met with countless life-and-death, dangerous situations. Only through such an unpredictable mission with a narrow escape from death could everyone be tested. Hence, from that moment onward, everyone regarded each other as faithful companions, and they could trust one another to look out for them when facing enemies.
After a short rest and waiting until everyone was better, Marsha gave Sebastian a hinting look. This gaze made Sebastian aware of the respect Marsha had for him. After all, Sebastian was in the highest realm and strongest senior among them, and he led the team. However, their success at that time was also mainly because of Marsha’s help. If Marsha led the discourse this time, everyone might not disagree, but Sebastian might feel uncomfortable.
Nevertheless, Marsha used practical action to show his respect for Sebastian, his senior. This made Sebastian appreciative of Anderson, and he was touched too. Next, Sebastian took a deep breath and calmed himself. Then, he smiled. “Since everything is settled now, let’s see what treasures the Scorching Sun, one of the top ten bandits, have for us.”
When everyone heard that, their eyes immediately lit up, and they became excited. After all, these bandits would usually have valuables with them. Since they killed the infamous Scorching Sun, it was time for the most anticipated division of the spoils!
Under Sebastian’s lead, the crowd approached the hole that Brayden was hiding before. Even though Yohan’s bottom was still hurting, he also limped over and stuck his head out.
The Scorching Sun, Brayden, brought damage in South Earlington for many years. He was guilty of robbing homes, murder, and arson. Furthermore, Brayden killed countless sect disciples before, and many sects put him top of their bounty list. Hence, Brayden surely had tons of great treasures with him.
Later, Sebastian stood at the ring of the cave and softly pointed at it. Then, the ground suddenly made a muffled sound and collapsed, causing the hole to be five times bigger than before. In that instant, a small underground stone chamber about half an acre in size appeared.
Random jars were scattered all around the floor, and there were a few storage sacks around. As the crowd recalled how Brayden fought everyone empty-handed just now, everyone guessed that he also
went out in a hurry and did not take the storage bags with him. Then, they jumped down and opened the jar one after another. In that instant, a pungent smell of medicinal herbs filled the room.
Among them, Nana was the most well-versed about medicinal plants, and at a glance, her eyes widened. Soon, she stuttered, “Phoenix flower, jade-like plant, six desires wood, magical spark stem… Goodness, gracious… Where did this guy get all these spirit materials..?”
When the rest of them heard Nana‘s words, they broke out in cold sweats. Although they could not recognize these spirit materials, they saw the names Nana mentioned on the sect exchange list.
These materials might not be the most precious and rare, but it was not easy to get them either. Even a resourceful sect would require them to exchange the ingredients with sect contribution points, and they were not as affordable as common groceries.
Next, they divided the spirit materials equally among themselves, and they could either contribute it to the sect, exchange it for sect contribution points, or keep it for themselves.
After dividing the spirit materials, everyone got more excited. Even if they did not get much after this, they thought the trip was extremely worth it. After all, if they wanted to use their saved-up sect contribution points to exchange even one- fifth of the materials they received after the splitting, it would take them ten years!
But now, they already racked a fortune with just the spirit materials!
Everyone had the same thoughts, but once they opened the rest of the storage pouches, even Marsha was dumbfounded. One of the storage bags was filled with fedulings, and there were more than 200,000!
The other three were filled with spirit stones, and it totaled more than thousands. Perhaps these were all Brayden’s collections for the past decades! Unfortunately for Brayden, he did not get to spend a single piece, and they all now belonged to Marsha and the rest present.
With so many spirit stones kept neatly together, the blue light reflected on everyone. At present, even Sebastian, who was in the highest realm, never saw so many spirit stones before. Then, suddenly, the room was only filled with breathing sounds, and there were no other movements.
If they divided those spirit stones among themselves, they would at least have 200 pieces each. Apprentices like Marsha would only receive one spirit stone each month, whereas outer disciples like Sebastian and the rest would earn no more than three spirit stones each month. Hence, if each of them got more than 200 pieces, it would be an unbelievable fortune!
Finally, Marsha was the first to return to his senses. After all, he continuously robbed spirit stones twice before, and they totaled up to more than 100 spirit stones. Thus, he chimed in, “Sebastian, let’s see what’s in the remaining storage bag.”
Marsha wanted to shift everyone’s attention away from the spirit stones quickly. Otherwise, they might have even stared at the spirit stones forever. Then, Sebastian and the rest looked away from the spirit stones with great difficulty, and they opened the remaining storage bag.
