"We don't know how long the barrier will last," Wang Changsheng urged. "To be safe, let's quickly gather the Soul Nourishing Flowers and leave this place."
Zhang Wuchen nodded and flew into the cave. Soon after, she emerged, handing Wang Changsheng a green wooden box. "The Soul Nourishing Flowers are very important to me, Fellow Daoist Wang," she said. "I will certainly reward you handsomely once we leave this place."
"Let's leave here first," Wang Changsheng said with a frown. "It would be bad if the barrier suddenly strengthened."
The four of them retraced their steps, and before long, they were back outside.
"Fellow Daoist Wang, let's leave the Heavenly Void Cave Dwelling together!" Zhang Wuchen urged. Having obtained the Soul Nourishing Flowers, she had no desire to stay in the Heavenly Void Cave Dwelling for another moment.
Wang Changsheng nodded, just about to speak, when a deafening roar came from the distance. A massive red mushroom cloud rose prominently on the distant horizon.
"Is someone fighting?" Wang Changsheng narrowed his eyes, looking towards the source of the explosion.
Zhang Wuchen preferred to avoid trouble, when a five-colored light beam flew rapidly from afar. Its speed was quite astonishing.
"Be careful, someone's coming." Lin Yuzong frowned, his expression turning serious.
Behind the five-colored light, there was also a green light and a red light. Soon after, Wang Changsheng recognized the true identity of the five-colored light, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes: it was the Five Spirits Rogue Cultivator.
The Five Spirits Rogue Cultivator's aura was weak, his body was covered in blood, and there was a fist-sized bloody hole in his left shoulder. He looked severely injured and depleted of vitality.
"Fellow Daoist Wang, Madam Zhang, help! The Barbarian Race is harming humans!" the Five Spirits Rogue Cultivator exclaimed, his eyes filled with fear.
No sooner had he spoken than a piercing whoosh sounded from behind him. A ten-zhang-large green fist shadow slammed towards him, twisting the void wherever it passed. Simultaneously, a golden light suddenly appeared above the Five Spirits Rogue Cultivator, revealing a small, glittering golden seal.
After emitting a dazzling golden light, the small golden seal expanded dramatically, transforming into a massive hundred-zhang golden seal. Its entire body was enveloped in a brilliant golden aura. Even before it fully descended, an immense pressure swept over them.
With a flash of golden light, the massive golden seal sprayed out a volley of thin golden beams, striking towards the Five Spirits Rogue Cultivator. Simultaneously, three golden arrows transformed into three golden streaks of light, piercing through the air directly at him.
The Five Spirits Rogue Cultivator's face turned pale. He swiped his hands across the void, and a mass of five-colored spiritual light materialized, enveloping his entire body.
The thin golden beams struck the five-colored spiritual light and bounced off. However, after a ripple of golden light swept across its surface, the massive golden seal swiftly slammed down.
Just then, wisps of water vapor appeared around the Five Spirits Rogue Cultivator, quickly forming a twenty-zhang-large blue hand that pushed upward.
The massive golden seal was held by the blue hand, its descent slowing. A large volley of white sword qi shot out, shattering the green fist shadow. The three golden streaks of light dispersed the white sword qi, struck the five-colored spiritual light, and immediately bounced back.
The Five Spirits Rogue Cultivator seized the opportunity to fly forward, landing beside Wang Changsheng and the other three.
As soon as he landed, he flicked his sleeve, and a shield radiating five-colored spiritual light flew out, hovering protectively around him.
There were several small cracks on the surface of the five-colored shield, indicating it had clearly sustained damage.
He quickly took out a green porcelain bottle, poured some green liquid into his mouth, and his pale complexion slowly returned to a healthy rosy hue.
At this moment, the two light beams also halted. They revealed a tall young man in a green shirt and a graceful young woman in a red dress. The young man in the green shirt had a pair of ox horns on his head, was bare-chested, and heavily muscled. The young woman in the red dress had a slender figure, with a significant portion of her cleavage exposed, sparking imagination.
They were both Nascent Soul Mid-stage cultivators, and the young man in the green shirt was indeed Santa.
After leaving the Sea of Desolate Spirits, he returned to the Barbarian Race. Using their cultivation resources, he gradually cultivated to the Nascent Soul Mid-stage. However, it wasn't easy for him to recover his Nascent Soul Late-stage cultivation, but fortunately, he had previously explored the Heavenly Void Cave Dwelling.
Seeing the two Nascent Soul Mid-stage Barbarian cultivators, Wang Changsheng, Zhang Wuchen, and Lin Yuzong felt a tightening in their hearts. They were all Nascent Soul Early-stage cultivators, and if a real fight broke out, the outcome would be hard to predict.
Wang Qingling's delicate eyebrows furrowed, and her eyes were filled with worry.
"Immortaless Wuchen, True Monarch Taihao!" The young woman in the red dress's pupils constricted, and her expression turned serious.
These two were both renowned Nascent Soul cultivators in the South Sea, possessing extraordinary strength.
"Barbarians! Have you also come to the Heavenly Void Cave Dwelling to join the fun? This is not a place for you to be," Zhang Wuchen said coldly, showing no fear of Santa and the other.
"Don't meddle in our affairs," Santa said coldly, his venomous gaze fixed on the Five Spirits Rogue Cultivator. "He stole our belongings; he's courting death. If you don't wish to die, leave now, or don't blame us for being impolite."
The Five Spirits Rogue Cultivator shivered and quickly interjected, "Fellow Daoist Lin, Fellow Daoist Wang, don't believe him! I discovered an ancient cultivator's cave dwelling. They somehow also found it and want to silence me. I spent a hundred years finding a way to break the restriction; I can help break it."
If Zhang Wuchen and the other three didn't intervene, given the Five Spirits Rogue Cultivator's current state, he would undoubtedly die.
"An ancient cultivator's cave dwelling?" Zhang Wuchen's interest was immediately piqued. She suddenly thought of something, and a hesitant expression appeared on her face.
"Hmph, I was clearly the one who discovered that ancient cultivator's cave dwelling first," Santa sneered, his face filled with disdain. "And now, according to you, you discovered it? Ridiculous."
"Who discovered it isn't important; harmony brings wealth," Lin Yuzong proposed, his eyes darting. "I suggest we open the restriction together and share the treasures. Even if we're going to fight, let's do it after seeing the treasures. It's pointless to fight to the death before even seeing them."
Santa pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "No problem. However, if you play any tricks, don't blame me for being impolite."
Zhang Wuchen was somewhat swayed and, after thinking for a moment, looked at Wang Changsheng and asked via spiritual transmission, "Fellow Daoist Wang, what do you think?"
"It's fine to agree to him for now," Wang Changsheng replied via spiritual transmission. "It won't be too late to turn on him after we've seen the treasures. There's no need to fight to the death before then."
"No problem," Zhang Wuchen said. "I also warn you, don't try any tricks. Otherwise, I would be very interested in experiencing the Barbarian Race's divine abilities. I've killed Barbarians before, too." By the end of her sentence, Zhang Wuchen's face was filled with killing intent.
Originally intending to fight to the death, they shook hands and made peace in the blink of an eye. Ultimately, in the cultivation world, there are no absolute friends and no absolute enemies.
Santa scoffed lightly and said nothing, as the two flew back the way they came.
"Fellow Daoist Tong, are you alright?" Wang Changsheng turned to look at the Five Spirits Rogue Cultivator, a concerned expression on his face.
As one of the Five Immortals of the Outer Seas, the Five Spirits Rogue Cultivator was no match for the two Nascent Soul stage Barbarian cultivators. It seemed these two Nascent Soul stage Barbarians possessed extraordinary strength.
"I've lost some vital energy," the Five Spirits Rogue Cultivator said. "Madam Zhang, Fellow Daoist Wang, thank you for your assistance. This is the method to break the restriction. I won't go, so as not to burden you." He then took out a green seashell and handed it to Zhang Wuchen.
No matter how precious a treasure was, one had to be alive to use it. In his current state, he would surely be at a disadvantage in a fight.
Zhang Wuchen scanned it with her divine sense and nodded. She then passed it to Wang Changsheng, who immersed his divine sense into it, quickly withdrew it, and nodded.
"May the green mountains remain and the green waters flow on. Farewell, fellow Daoists," the Five Spirits Rogue Cultivator said with a sigh of relief, transforming into a five-colored light beam and streaking away through the air.
"Qingling, you should leave here too!" Wang Changsheng instructed. "Find a safe place to hide and don't wander around." Considering the high probability of a confrontation with the Barbarian Race, Wang Changsheng decided to have Wang Qingling leave the Heavenly Void Cave Dwelling.
Wang Qingling did not object and agreed.
Wang Changsheng and the other two chased after Santa and his companion, and soon disappeared into the horizon.
