Lin Yi and Bing Wuqing still didn't know what a snake head meant, but he had made up his mind. If it weren't for Lin Yi and Bing Wuqing's constant provocation, he wouldn't have to take such a risk. But now that Ling Tianyou felt the pressure, if he didn't push himself hard, then not to mention Lin Yi, even Bing Wuqing and Xue Jianfeng would leave him behind forever. His pride made it impossible for him to fall behind.

"Challenging the limits?" Lin Yi looked at Ling Tianyou deeply. Although he didn't know the exact situation, he could make out the general situation from the look in his eyes. He said immediately,"I understand, but this doesn't conflict with you going down with us. Even if you want to challenge your limits, you can wait until you come up. If we can really find the spiritual fruits, we'll split them equally among the three of us. If there's not enough, I'll compensate you with spiritual jades."

"I appreciate brother Lin's kind intentions, but I've already made up my mind. Brother Lin, you don't have to persuade me anymore. We'll meet again." Ling Tianyou cupped his hands at Lin Yi and Bing Wuqing, turned around, and left.

As she watched Ling Tianyou leave, Bing Wuqing suddenly said,""It seems like this fellow has been provoked quite badly."

"He's extremely talented and has a strong will. Although he's not smooth, he's still worthy of praise. If there are no accidents, he'll definitely become a great person in the future." Lin Yi said, deep in thought. He rarely evaluated others, and his evaluation was already extremely high. Bing Wuqing was also a person with unlimited potential, but in the long run, it was really hard to say if she could continue to be better than Ling Tianyou.

Of course, now that Bing Wuqing was following Lin Yi, Ling Tianyou couldn't even compare to her in terms of cultivation resources. If they couldn't make up for the difference in this aspect, the difference in strength between them would only grow bigger and bigger.

The two of them didn't waste any more time and immediately jumped into the sea, diving into the underground cave.

It was just as Ling Tianyou had said. About half a li further in from the entrance, the inside of the cave suddenly opened up. After going ashore, there was still a height of nearly thirty meters from the top of the cave, and the environment was rather spacious.

The most amazing thing was that this place was different from what they had imagined. It was not completely dark, but there was a soft green light everywhere. It was like a paradise in a fairy tale, intoxicating people.

"This light ..." Bing Wuqing couldn't help but furrow her brows. Although the soft green light around them was beautiful, it gave her a strange feeling of danger. His past experiences had told him that the more beautiful something was, the more dangerous it was.

"It seems that this place is often covered by seawater. If I'm not wrong, this place will be completely flooded every high tide. We don't have much time left." Lin Yi said as he looked around.

Bing Wuqing glanced at him, and her dazed face was filled with confusion.

"Look at that glowing thing. It's some kind of plankton that lives in the sea. Their bodies emit a green glow. Look, not only are they everywhere on the ground, but they're also on top of the cave. If it weren't for the fact that they're always covered by seawater, they wouldn't stay here for no reason, not to mention that they're all alive." Lin Yi explained.

"Yes." Bing Wuqing nodded, marveling at Lin Yi's observation skills. She had a whole new understanding of Lin Yi's observation skills. All the Masters she had met before were far weaker than Lin Yi in terms of actual strength. He was basically a straightforward person, using his fists to settle everything. There were very few who paid attention to details like Lin Yi.

"I don't think this place is too big. We should be able to sweep the area before it gets dark outside. We should be able to get out before the high tide. Let's split up and hurry up." Lin Yi decided to split into two groups. After all, Bing Wuqing was different from his other followers. With her peak-level early nascent soul realm strength, she could easily go anywhere in the small ancient martial world. There was no need for her to follow him all the time.

As for the spiritual fruits, Lin Yi believed that Bing Wuqing wouldn't keep them for herself if she really got them. He didn't trust her character, but her brain.

Xue Jianfeng would definitely do something as stupid as pocketing the spiritual fruits for himself, but Bing Wuqing would never do it, because he was a smart person.

"Alright," he said. Without any hesitation, Bing Wuqing chose a direction to search, while Lin Yi chose the opposite direction. Relying on his extraordinary divine sense, he moved extremely fast, and at first glance, he looked like a shadow shuttling back and forth. This underground cave wasn't big, but it wasn't small either. If they didn't move fast enough, they wouldn't be able to finish searching before the tide rose.

In this underground cave, in addition to the plankton that emitted green fluorescent light, the most common thing was seaweed. In addition, there was almost no other vegetation, let alone any large plants, so it was a bit of a panoramic view. However, this did not mean that it was easy to find the spiritual fruits.

From Ling Tianyou's description, Lin Yi already knew what the spirit sense fruit looked like, but he didn't know if it was a fruit or if it just grew on the ground. It was easy to find a fruit in this place, but it would be a bit troublesome if it grew on the ground covered with seaweed.

Before this, Lin Yi had agreed with Ling Tianyou's judgment, thinking that the legendary spirit sense fruit might be growing in the cave. But now, he was a little doubtful. If his deduction was right, the cave was often submerged in seawater. Could it be that the spirit sense fruit could grow in seawater?

Most people, including Lin Yi, thought that the spiritual fruit would only grow in places with rich spiritual Qi. The possibility of it growing in the sea was almost non-existent. The sea didn't have a high compatibility with spiritual Qi, and once it was surrounded by the sea all year round, the spiritual Qi would be the same as in the mortal world. What kind of treasure could grow in this kind of environment?

Of course, there were only a few people who had actually seen a spiritual fruit. Perhaps spiritual fruits were just so strange!

After searching in one direction for a while, Lin Yi suddenly stopped. It wasn't because he found a spiritual fruit, but because his spiritual sense sensed that there were people not far ahead, and not just one.

This was strange! From what Ling Tianyou said, he and his master had discovered this place by chance, and the place could indeed be said to be hidden. Under normal circumstances, even if someone came to the cliff, it would be very difficult to find it, unless they were being chased by spirit beasts like Ling Tianyou and the others. Otherwise, they couldn't have jumped down to fish out of boredom, and thus accidentally discovered this underground cave, right?
