C1279 The Choice of Destination
This spear was Ye Hong Tian's Slaughter Spear. Just now, Ye Hong Tian used all of his remaining strength to use the Sun Penetrating Spear once more, barely managing to pierce through the man's abdomen.
Because he still needed to continue blocking Jian Qing Ge's attack, the black-clothed man didn't have time to deal with Ye Hong Tian. He gritted his teeth and went to fight Jian Qing Ge.
After blocking Jian Qingge's sword qi, the black-clothed man forcefully used his strength to scatter the sword qi. He turned around and punched Ye Hongtian in the face, sending Ye Hongtian flying. He pulled out the Slaughter Spear from his abdomen and escaped.
Ye Hongtian, who was sent flying, fainted in midair because of exhaustion. Although the black-clothed man's punch only hit Ye Hongtian's face, it only hit Ye Hongtian's face. However, Ye Hongtian's entire upper body suffered a very serious internal injury. He definitely wouldn't wake up for a while.
Before Ye Hongtian landed on the ground, Zi Ming quickly caught Ye Hongtian. She brought Ye Hongtian to a tree and checked Ye Hongtian's body with a worried face.
Jian Qingge, who was not far away, was about to chase after the man in black. However, when he saw Ye Hongtian's condition, he gave up on chasing him. He flew towards Ye Hongtian and took out two healing pills from his Cosmos Sack.
"Feed this to Brother Ye. A martial artist below the Awakening Realm should be able to recover after eating a pill."
Jian Qingge handed a pill to Ziming. After Ziming took the pill, he threw the other pill into his mouth. After a few breaths, the external injuries on Jian Qingge's body completely disappeared.
Zi Ming saw the effects of the pill after Jian Qingge swallowed it and hurriedly stuffed the pill into Ye Hongtian's mouth. He used his own strength to help Ye Hongtian digest the medicinal effects of the pill.
The medicinal strength spread within Ye Hong Tian's body. Ye Hong Tian's injuries healed in the blink of an eye, and it didn't take long for him to completely recover.
However, although his injuries healed, Ye Hong Tian's exhausted physical strength didn't recover. He fell into a deep sleep.
If Ye Hong Tian didn't wake up, Zi Ming naturally wouldn't move forward. Jian Qing Ge also had nothing to do when he went up the mountain alone, so he sat cross-legged beside Zi Ming and waited for Ye Hong Tian to wake up.
In the blink of an eye, four hours had passed. It was noon, but there were many green mountains and trees. The leaves were lush, and the sun could not shine in.
Ye Hong Tian, who was lying on Zi Ming's thigh, hummed comfortably. He turned around and was about to continue sleeping, but in the next second, a pink fist smashed on his head.
"Ouch! Zi Ming, why did you hit me? It hurts so much." Ye Hongtian said with a face full of grievance.
Zi Ming only snorted when she heard him. Then, she stood up and dusted off the dust on her legs.
Ye Hong Tian scratched his head and smiled awkwardly when he saw Zi Ming patting the dust. Just as he was about to say something to Zi Ming, he suddenly felt a gaze staring at him.
"Brother Ye, Brother Ye, what fortune have you accumulated in your lifetime? I'm so jealous. If there was such a beauty in this world who was so good to me... I'll never let her down in my entire life! " Jian Qingge stared at Ye Hongtian with envy and said.
Ye Hongtian turned around and smiled awkwardly at Jian Qingge. He didn't say anything. He reached out and held Zi Ming in his arms. Then, he began to sincerely thank Zi Ming for being willing to use his leg as a pillow.
Jian Qingge, who was completely ignored, couldn't help but twitch his mouth. He regretted going up the mountain with Ye Hongtian. He comforted himself while looking at the fork not far away from them.
Due to the great battle between them and the black-clothed man, many martial artists were scared back to the foot of the mountain. Although it had already been four hours, there weren't many people climbing the mountain. It could be said that there were very few martial artists who had reached that fork.
To them, it was a good thing that there were fewer people climbing the mountain. This also meant that after climbing the mountain, they basically wouldn't fight with martial artists over some treasures, nor would there be any situation of seizing treasures.
Jian Qingge originally wanted to find an opportunity to tell Ye Hong Tian this information, but then he heard Ye Hong Tian say, "Maybe because of the battle just now, there are a lot less people climbing the mountain. I think we should take this opportunity to climb the mountain. What do you think, Brother Jian?"
"Er... I was just about to say this. Since Brother Ye has the same opinion, let's go." Jian Qingge replied somewhat gloomily.
With that said, Jian Qingge already stood up and flew towards the fork in the road. Without even taking out the map to take a look, Jian Qingge stood in front of one of the forks and waved towards Ye Hong Tian.
Seeing Jian Qingge wave his hand, Ye Hongtian pulled Zi Ming, who was beside him, to Jian Qingge's side. Seeing the path Jian Qingge wanted to take, Ye Hongtian couldn't help but frown.
There were ten roads in total at the fork in the road. Ye Hongtian could tell from the marks left on the road that there were more people going. The reason why Ye Hongtian frowned was because Jian Qingge had chosen the path with the most number of people.
At this moment, a rushing wind sound passed by them. Then, another person chose this road.
"Brother Jian, this path... isn't there a bit too many people on it?" Ye Hong Tian asked.
Jian Qingge immediately smiled and said, "I know what Brother Ye is worried about, but this road leads to a Spiritual Spring. This Spiritual Spring recovers energy once every hundred years. We are not going to snatch any treasures. We're just going to soak in the Spiritual Spring. There aren't many people now, so there might still be a place. Let's hurry up and leave."
After hearing what Jian Qingge said, Ye Hongtian had a look of understanding on his face. Then, he smiled and walked towards the Energy Spring Water with Jian Qingge.1
Perhaps it was because he was in a hurry to soak in the Spiritual Spring, Jian Qingge's speed was getting faster and faster. Originally, Ye Hongtian could still easily catch up, but soon, it became somewhat strenuous. Later on, he had no choice but to spread his wings and use all his strength to follow Jian Qingge closely. Moreover, he still had to hug Zi Ming.
Under the full speed of their journey, the three of them quickly arrived in front of the Spiritual Spring. This Spiritual Spring was very large, and it was estimated to be about half a mile in size with the naked eye.
However, at this moment, this Spiritual Spring was already filled with people. Under Jian Qingge's lead, Ye Hongtian and Zi Ming finally found a place that could accommodate two people. Jian Qingge, on the other hand, went to another area.
He stayed close to Zi Ming and soaked in the hot spring. In order to prevent Zi Ming from touching other people's skin, it was rare for Ye Hongtian to use a very tough attitude to make Zi Ming sit on his lap. With Zi Ming's height, the Spiritual Spring wouldn't flood his nose and mouth.
Feeling the energy contained in the spiritual spring, Ye Hong Tian felt a little disappointed. It should be because there were simply too many martial artists soaking in the spiritual spring. The energy inside was equivalent to using thousands or tens of thousands of low-grade essence crystals to accumulate. It was neither pure nor massive.
Ye Hong Tian wanted to leave after not soaking in the Spiritual Spring for long. However, just as he was about to move his body, he discovered that Zi Ming, who was sitting on his lap, was not moving at all. It seemed that he was seriously absorbing the energy inside the Spiritual Spring.
