The young man left.

  Fang Qiu watched him leave.

  Just as he said, the Qinghai Lake was so big that it looked like a sea. It was rare for him to come here. He must take a closer look to get a full view of Qinghai Lake.

  Fang Qiu stayed.

  He was sitting cross-legged on the shore of Qinghai Lake, which was less than 3 meters away from the Ambergris Grass.

  “The Qi of Heaven and Earth is so thick.” As he closed his eyes to rest, Fang Qiu could clearly feel that the Qi of Heaven and Earth above the Qinghai Lake was obviously much fresher than anywhere else.

  In this case, the energy that Fang Qiu consumed in the previous battle could be easily recovered.

  The minor injuries he had suffered before were all healed.

  Because the Ambergris Grass was located in a small corner that had not been developed in Qinghai Lake, no one showed up here at all.

  He had been sitting cross-legged there for an entire day.

  “Buzz, buzz……” At noon the next day, the Qi of Heaven and Earth above the Qinghai Lake suddenly began to surge.

  “It’s about to mature!” Fang Qiu narrowed his eyes and stared at the Ambergris Grass which didn’t change at all.

  But right at this moment, the sky above Qinghai Lake, which was sunny, suddenly darkened.

  He looked up and only saw an extremely thick layer of clouds appear in the sky above Qinghai Lake. This layer of clouds was very thick, but it was not dark clouds. In fact, it was rather white in color.

  However, no matter how white it was, it still gave people a huge sense of suppression because the clouds were too thick.

  “Could it be……” An idea occurred to Fang Qiu.

  A vortex actually emerged in the center of the thick layer of clouds in the sky.

  It was indeed a vortex formed by clouds.

  “This is…… the Qi of Heaven and Earth!” Fang Qiu lightly sensed it.

  He immediately noticed that it was the surging Qi of Heaven and Earth that caused this vortex. After the Qi of Heaven and Earth formed a vortex in the sky, it attracted all the Qi of Heaven and Earth in all directions.

  As the Qi of Heaven and Earth was accumulating, the Qi of Heaven and Earth that was swirling in the clouds high in the sky and could not be seen by ordinary people began to extend down.

  It was very fast.

  In the blink of an eye, it reached the surface of Qinghai Lake.

  Then, the water in Qinghai Lake was directly sucked up by the huge force caused by the rapid swirl of the Qi of Heaven and Earth. Like a tornado, it spun wildly and rushed swiftly to the sky.

  “Is this Dragon Absorbing Water?” Fang Qiu was stunned by the scene of nature.

  He mumbled, “But why is the Qi of Heaven and Earth surging? Is it because of this?”


  Fang Qiu shifted his gaze to the Ambergris Grass again.

  Fang Qiu found that the Qi of Heaven and Earth that formed the Dragon Absorbing Water seemed to be attracted by something after connecting to the surface of Qinghai Lake. It actually gathered at the spot where Ambergris Grass was and quickly poured into it.

  With the infusion of a considerable amount of Qi of Heaven and Earth, the Ambergris Grass also became more and more crystal clear. It looked bright and shiny as if a jade turned into water, which looked extremely delicate!

  “It’s worth the trip.” Fang Qiu smiled.

  He didn’t expect that either.

  It was the first time that he had come to Qinghai Lake, and he actually encountered Dragon Absorbing Water which could barely be seen once in a lifetime.

  He supposed that the reason why it was so rare to see Dragon Absorbing Water was that the Heaven Treasure hardly appeared.

  It was once reported on TV that there was a spectacle of Dragon Absorbing Water. At that time, like the water column in front of him, nine water columns appeared in the place.

  If the Dragon Absorbing Water at that time was formed because of the Heaven Treasure, how rare would the Heaven Treasure be?

  He was quietly admiring this marvelous spectacle.

  It wasn’t until the Ambergris Grass had fully matured that the spectacle of Dragon Absorbing Water completely dissipated.

  At this moment, three meters in front of Fang Qiu, the soft Ambergris Grass in the water stood up, looking like a piece of fine jade that had been carefully carved.

  Fang Qiu was about to reach out to pick it up.

  “Whoosh!” All of a sudden, the sound of a huge stream of water splashing suddenly rang out.

  He took a closer look and only saw that in Qinghai Lake, a water column that was nearly 5 meters thick blasted to the sky. Within the water column, there was a black figure that jumped out from the lake swiftly.

  As he looked carefully, the figure had four legs and didn’t look like a creature living in the water at all!

  “What’s the guardian beast of the eighth Heaven Treasure?” Fang Qiu observed carefully.

  As soon as the thick water column dissipated, a creature with four legs and a tail, which looked like a mouse or a seal, was stepping on the water. Its black eyes were glued to Ambergris Grass.

  “An otter!” Fang Qiu narrowed his eyes.

  He recognized it. When he was a child in the countryside, he heard from people of the older generation that there were numerous otters that were often caught by them at that time. But now this creature was placed in the Red List of Threatened Species.

  The otter was a kind of weasel. Their bodies were long and their tails were short. Their eyes were slightly bulging and round. Their ears were very small. With short legs, their backs were brown, and their bellies were grayish-brown.

  Otters mostly lived in the caves. Basically, they would rest in the day and only come out at night. They were good at swimming and diving. Their hearing, sight, and sense of smell were very keen. They mainly lived around the rivers and lakes and especially liked living in the stream areas with flourishing plants on both shores of the stream.

  “There is actually an otter in Qinghai Lake, and it’s such a big one.”


  Fang Qiu was surprised.

  Ordinary otters were between 56 to 80 centimeters. With a tail of 30 to 40 centimeters, they were at most 1.2 meters long. Their size was almost the same as cats and dogs raised at home.

  Now, the otter in front of Fang Qiu, whose body length reached at least 3 meters without taking its tail into account. Its four feet were almost as big as a normal person’s palm, and its claws were particularly sharp.

  “Patter.” Staring at Fang Qiu, the otter suddenly took a step forward.

  Fang Qiu sat still.

  He knew that this otter wanted to get the Heaven Treasure, but he didn’t think that it was able to take the Heaven Treasure away from him. The reason why he remained still was that he was waiting.

  Since the clue was taken out to be sold, there must be someone else who would come whether it was the seller of the clue or the people who bought the same clue as him.

  He did not believe that he could encounter a person who happened to head to the same destination as him in this world!

  “Pitter-patter……” The otter constantly tried to move forward step by step, getting closer to the Ambergris Grass.

  When it was only 2 meters away from the Ambergris Grass, it was staring at Fang Qiu as it stretched out its forefoot to the freshly matured Ambergris Grass and tried to pluck it.

  “Swish!” But right at this moment, a harsh whoosh of air was heard.

  He came!

  Fang Qiu abruptly turned his head.

  Not far away, the young backpacker who walked with him just now indeed came back. This time, he didn’t come alone, but a group of people was following him. There were at least seven or eight people!

  “Little thing, the Ambergris Grass is not something that you can take away.” The young backpacker smiled at the otter that had taken a step back in fear and then turned to look at Fang Qiu.

  “Swoosh!” Just as he turned his head, Fang Qiu, who had been sitting still, moved at the moment.

  Since they had already come, when could he take it if he did not take it now?

  Like a flash of lightning, he moved and leaped over 3 meters in an instant. He shot over the lake and then returned to the shore in no time.

  As people took a closer look, the freshly mature Ambergris Grass in the lake was gone.

  Then, they looked at Fang Qiu’s hand, which was holding nothing but the Ambergris Grass.

  “Whoosh.” Just as Fang Qiu was about to snatch the Ambergris Grass, the sound of something breaking through the air was heard.

  The young backpacker rushed to Fang Qiu instantly and tried to grab the Ambergris Grass in Fang Qiu’s hand.

  He was here for the Ambergris Grass.

  He first stopped the otter because he wanted to show his strength to Fang Qiu so that Fang Qiu wouldn’t dare to make a move recklessly. However, he didn’t expect that his intimidation didn’t work at all.

  Besides, he was far away from the Ambergris Grass. Although he had sensed Fang Qiu’s intention of snatching it in the first place, he still couldn’t stop him in an instant because Fang Qiu was too fast.

  “Smack!” Under the young man’s attack, Fang Qiu stepped on the ground with his right foot and immediately took a few steps back to keep a distance of about 2 meters between himself and the man.

  Then, he placed the Ambergris Grass directly into the inner pocket of his shirt.

  “Nirvana?” Putting away the Ambergris Grass, Fang Qiu stared at the young man and asked with a sneer as he was frowning.

  The young man nodded and said with a smile, “Yeah. We’ve deliberately leaked the news that we’re the ones who auctioned off the clue of the Ambergris Grass to the Sword Sect. This time, we planned to trap the Sword Sect, but we didn’t expect that they would actually sell the clue to you. When God closes a door in front of you, there must be a window opened for you!”


  “What about now?” Fang Qiu darkened his face.

  The young man smiled faintly and said, “Now? Since you’re here, don’t think about leaving.”


  “Oh?” Fang Qiu smiled.

  The young man said with a smile, “However, although two of our people have been killed by you, we have the same aspirations. We had a good conversation just now, so I can make an exception and give you a chance to join in so that we can help more people who need help in this world. As long as you are willing, everything is negotiable.”


  “What if I don’t want to?” Fang Qiu asked.

  “I’ll kill you!” The young man’s tone turned cold in an instant and he said, “People who are stubborn must be converted!”


  “What if I don’t want to be converted by you?” asked Fang Qiu teasingly.

  The young man looked cold and said, “Then you can go to hell.”


  “Chirp!” On the surface of the lake, the giant otter became furious after losing the Ambergris Grass. With a swoosh, it turned around and rushed to the young man who stopped it from getting the Ambergris Grass, waving its claws angrily to attack the young man.

  Seeing this, the people behind the young man immediately rushed out to face it and fought with the giant otter.

  The young man stared at Fang Qiu fiercely, but Fang Qiu was not afraid at all.

  They seemed to get into a fight at any moment!

  After a while, the otter got beaten away.

  The large group of people who followed the young man began to quietly move towards Fang Qiu.

  “Do you want to block me?” Seeing this, Fang Qiu laughed suddenly and said while smiling, “Catch up with me first!”


  “Swoosh!” As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Qiu didn’t hesitate and suddenly turned around and ran away at an exceptionally fast speed. With a swoosh, he fled far away.

  Seeing this, the young man was stunned at once.

  He was extremely gloomy.

  It was said that no matter what kind of opponent John Doe met, he would always fight head-on, which was definitely not like how he reacted right now.
