Lin Bai fell into the large hole, and after descending over a hundred meters, he landed at the bottom.

Just as Lin Bai had guessed, beneath the Central Square, there existed something akin to an Underground Palace.

After landing at the bottom, Lin Bai took out several Night Illuminating Pearls from his Storage Bag and immediately scattered them around, lighting up the underground area.

This underground area formed a circular square about a kilometer in size, and at this moment, at its very center, lay a water pond about a hundred meters wide.

The water in the pond was milky white, emitting a faint fragrance.

Lin Bai quickly approached, coming to the milky white pond. Carefully, he scooped up some of the milky white water, scrutinizing it intently. After a while, Lin Bai said, "This should be the so-called Heavenly Heart Spirit Spring!"

"According to the contents of the Jade Slip, this Heavenly Heart Spirit Spring should be enormous, definitely more than just a hundred meters in size. But after fifty thousand years of dormancy, this Heavenly Heart Spirit Spring has withered down to a hundred meters."

"If I hadn't found this place today, in another hundred years, this location would certainly be completely exhausted, and by then, the Heavenly Heart Spirit Spring would also disappear within this City of the Living Dead!"

A hint of delight appeared on Lin Bai's face.

Taking out the Green Gourd from his Storage Bag, Lin Bai chuckled lightly, "This Green Gourd hasn't shown any other use except for having a large capacity inside. I used to use it to store wine, but now using it to store the Heavenly Heart Spirit Spring is quite good!"

"Fortunately, there was no wine left in the Green Gourd!"

Lin Bai smiled slightly, opened the Green Gourd, and with a motion of his Spiritual Power, the Green Gourd flew over the Heavenly Heart Spirit Spring. Instantly, a suction force emerged, drawing the milky white Spirit Liquid from the Heavenly Heart Spirit Spring slowly into the gourd.

Lin Bai stood by the pond, maintaining a smile on his face.

Meanwhile, from the passageway through which Lin Bai had arrived, several voices were heard.

"Situ Senior Brother, from that Storage Bag we found earlier, we discovered a Jade Slip which said this place is Sky Blue City, containing the Heavenly Heart Spirit Spring!"

"We've searched for so long, asked so many people, yet this Central Square is the most likely place!"

These voices began to echo around.

Another man's voice said, "Indeed, if the warriors of the Divine Sect really relied on Sky Blue City to resist the Demon Sect disciples, then this Central Square would easily provide them with the Heavenly Heart Spirit Spring!"

"Eh—"

"Why is there a hole here? We didn't notice it when we came earlier."

"Not good, could someone have already found it? Quick, let's go down and check."

At that moment, sounds were heard from the passageway.

Standing underground, Lin Bai's face turned grim upon hearing the voices.

Lin Bai's gaze was fixed on the Green Gourd. Half of the Heavenly Heart Spirit Spring within the hundred-meter-wide pond had been absorbed by Lin Bai's Green Gourd, but half remained unabsorbed!

Whish—

Behind Lin Bai, from the passageway he had previously entered, five shadows descended one after another.

Lin Bai turned his head, his face immediately becoming icy and indifferent, sneering, "It's a small world indeed!"

After these five shadows landed, they saw a white-robed man standing before the milky white pond, the Green Gourd drawing the Heavenly Heart Spirit Spring from the pond, their faces turning unsightly.

Yet, the moment Lin Bai turned back, one of them exclaimed, "It's you!"

These five were none other than the Quasi Holy Sons from the Eastern Courtyard, including Situ Yuntian and his group!

Situ Yuntian stared at Lin Bai with bloodshot eyes, "You stole my Ruyi ring, and now you want to take my Heavenly Heart Spirit Spring!"

Lin Bai coldly replied, "Get this straight, I found this place first, it's you who are trying to steal my Heavenly Heart Spirit Spring!"

Situ Yuntian coldly said, "I'm not going to waste words with you. Since we've met here today, you will definitely pay a bloody price!"

As he spoke, Situ Yuntian transformed into a Waning Shadow charging straight towards Lin Bai, saying at the same time, "I'll deal with this kid, you guys go snatch that Green Gourd and the Heavenly Heart Spirit Spring!"

"Yes." The remaining four, upon hearing this, immediately rushed towards the Green Gourd.

Lin Bai drew his Demonic Sword, coldly gazing at Situ Yuntian and his companions. Looking back, he saw the Green Gourd had absorbed all the milky white Spirit Liquid within the Heavenly Heart Spirit Spring, not leaving a single drop!

Immediately, Lin Bai reached out, grabbing the Green Gourd into his hand.

Simultaneously, Lin Bai slashed out with his sword, forcing Situ Yuntian and the other four to retreat!

"Leave the Ruyi ring and Green Gourd, and I'll spare your life today!" Situ Yuntian said coldly.

The remaining four, seeing Lin Bai had taken both the Green Gourd and the Heavenly Heart Spirit Spring, were also furious, shouting angrily, "Kid, hand over the gourd and Ruyi ring, or you will surely die today!"

"Damn it, you've been toying with us for so long, you deserve ten thousand deaths!"

"Hand over the treasures!"

"The only exit here is that hole, we've blocked it now, you have no way to escape. Hand over the treasures, it's your only way out!"

The other four shouted angrily.

Lin Bai, holding the Green Gourd in one hand and the Demonic Sword in the other, looked at Situ Yuntian coldly and smiled, "My only way out isn't that one hole, haha."

Lin Bai sneered.

Hearing this, a trace of panic appeared on Situ Yuntian's face, secretly thinking things weren't good.

Lin Bai laughed, "Situ Yuntian, since you know this ring is called the Ruyi ring, you wouldn't be unaware of its wonders, right?"

Situ Yuntian exclaimed in shock, "Impossible! You completely understood it!"

"No! That's my treasure!"

"It belongs to me, Situ Yuntian!"

"Give it back to me!"

Situ Yuntian roared in anger.

He roared repeatedly, the Cultivation Power of the Great Perfection of the Life-and-Death Realm bursting out from his entire body, the power of the Quasi Holy Son rivaling that of a Death Reversal Realm's presence, launching a palm strike towards Lin Bai's face.

And at this moment, the golden ring on Lin Bai's hand emitted a swirl of golden light, whisking Lin Bai away in an instant: "Haha, Situ Yuntian, until we meet again!"

As Lin Bai's body disappeared in a flash, Situ Yuntian's palm struck the wall, and with a thunderous boom, the underground area began to collapse.

"No!"

Seeing Lin Bai escape, Situ Yuntian roared, "Kid from the Southern Yard, I, Situ Yuntian, swear I'll kill you in this life, unless I shall not call myself a human!"

Situ Yuntian was fuming, having lost the Ruyi ring, which required the sacrifice of over ten warriors of Great Perfection of the Life-and-Death Realm to obtain, and now it had become Lin Bai's treasure.

The Heavenly Heart Spirit Spring, which was found with much difficulty, was now also taken by Lin Bai!

All these things originally belonged to Situ Yuntian, but now they all became Lin Bai's!

This made Situ Yuntian extremely furious!
