Chapter 594 Secretly Returning (1/2)

The clamor on the six color lake lasted for six days.

Over these six days, the Cangxuan Sect and Hundred Flowers Fairy Palace disciples harvested the Mythic Genesis essence in the lake without rest, as if not knowing the meaning of tiredness.

Under such monumental efforts, the color of the lake slowly began to fade on the sixth day, as the water ultimately transformed back to a normal clear look, making it no different from ordinary water.

...

Beside the six color lake.

The disciples from the two sects stood by the lakeside, regretful looks on their faces as they gazed at the now clear lake waters. They were clearly still somewhat unfulfilled, desiring to stay and harvest Mythic Genesis essence here forever.

Unfortunately, this was merely wishful thinking...

“Chief disciple Zhou Yuan.”

Tang Xiaoyan led a group of female disciples over, and cast her gaze towards Zhou Yuan with a slight smile. “Now that we’re done harvesting the six color lake, we shall be departing towards the deeper areas of the Mythic Utopia to unite with our Chosens.”

“It was mostly thanks to chief disciple Zhou Yuan this time, and this is a debt that our Hundred Flowers Fairy Palace will remember.”

She bowed towards Zhou Yuan. If not for him, the Hundred Flowers Fairy Palace would have suffered substantial losses in the struggle for the six color lake.

Zhou Yuan smiled and said, “Since we choose to work together, I will naturally give my all.”

Tang Xiaoyan pursed her lips as she smiled faintly and said, “Chief disciple Zhou Yuan, although you are currently a chief disciple, I have an unexplainable feeling that you may not be suppressed by the Chosens in the deeper areas of the Mythic Utopia.”

Although many may not believe such words, Tang Xiaoyan intuition told her that the young man before her eyes was not as simple as he appeared.

“It’s nice that someone thinks so highly of me.” Zhou Yuan embarra.s.sedly scratched his head, as he responded with a warm smile.

The two leaders exchanged a few more pleasantries, before Zhou Yuan’s gaze turned towards Luluo. The young lady displayed a wide grin, before she waved her small hand and said, “Zhou Yuan, let’s meet again in the deeper regions of the Mythic Utopia.”

However, Zhou Yuan seemed to catch a sly look in her large watery eyes.

But he quickly cast it aside, as he smiled and nodded.

“Then we shall part ways here.”

Tang Xiaoyan nodded. With a shout, Genesis Qi rose from under her feet and propelled her into the sky. Numerous Hundred Flowers Fairy Palace disciples followed behind her, accompanied by lovely laughter.

As they departed, some of the female disciples cast grudging gazes at Zhou Yuan.

Zhou Yuan acted as if he did not see these gazes as he sent the Hundred Flowers Fairy Palace away with his eyes. He then stretched as if a heavy burden had been released from his shoulders, and smiled towards Jin Zhang, Gu Hongyi and the rest. “We should prepare to get moving too.”

Their next step was also to head towards the deeper regions of the Mythic Utopia to reunite with their Chosens.

Jin Zhang nodded, before proceeding to pa.s.s the instructions to the other disciples.

Zhou Yuan stood on a hill as he extended his hand. Colorful light immediately gathered towards his palm, transforming into a round gem-like orb. A deep five-color halo slowly flowed around the orb.

Mysterious undulations spread from within it.

“I did not expect that I would fail to reach the six-color level even after absorbing two five-color Divine Establis.h.i.+ng Treasures.” There was a regretful look in Zhou Yuan’s eyes. Over the past six days, he had not only absorbed the two five-color Divine Establis.h.i.+ng Treasures but even harvested a substantial amount of Mythic Genesis essence from the six color lake. However, he had ultimately failed to evolve his Divine Establis.h.i.+ng Treasure to the six-color level.

Evidently, the amount of Mythic Genesis essence required for a six-color Divine Establis.h.i.+ng Treasure was very tremendous.

With a flip of his hand, Zhou Yuan returned the five-color orb into his Qi Dwelling. His eyes flickered faintly as he looked towards the now clear waters of the six color lake. He had not forgotten that there seemed to be a secret at the bottom of the lake.

“I’ll wait for the other disciples to leave, before I secretly return to have a better look.” Mumbled Zhou Yuan to himself inside.

He did not plan to share this secret with the others. After all, he felt that he had already done a very perfect job in leading the team, and those that followed him were more than satisfied.

Now, it was time to focus on himself.
