The successful refining of the Six Roots Pure Bamboo by Xu Fang proceeded smoothly due to its cooperation.
Soon, after a violent tremor on the Six Roots Pure Bamboo, Xu Fang successfully refined it.
Seeing this, the Liang Tian Chi hurriedly said.
"Congratulations to Six Roots Pure Bamboo sister, for joining us. From now on, we are a loving family!"
"Mm."
The Six Roots Pure Bamboo replied faintly.
"Although I still feel it's fine for a magical artifact to stay here by itself, it's not impossible to be with you all."
The Liang Tian Chi saw this and knew its nature, so it didn't dwell on it. It turned and rebuked.
"Golden Cudgel, say something!"
"Congratulations, congratulations."
Under the coercion of the Liang Tian Chi, the Ruyi Golden Cudgel dared not resist and could only reply lazily.
"What's wrong, why are you dejected again?"
The Liang Tian Chi was quite displeased. Hadn't it just managed to reignite its fighting spirit, only to be instantly beaten back by the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree?
Didn't it help it stand up for itself just now, scolding the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree soundly, and making the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree perform for Daoist Zhun Ti?
Hadn't this avenged the Ruyi Golden Cudgel? Why was this fellow slacking off again for me!
The Liang Tian Chi was about to adopt the elder brother's stance and lecture this junior artifact.
"Alright, alright, stop talking. Let's leave here first!"
Xu Fang spoke, he could understand the Ruyi Golden Cudgel's feelings.
The Ruyi Golden Cudgel was like a proud young man, constantly battered by the cruel reality.
Although the Liang Tian Chi helped it regain its face, it only made the Ruyi Golden Cudgel feel even more ashamed and useless, feeling protected by the Liang Tian Chi.
Seeing Xu Fang speak, the Liang Tian Chi said no more.
Xu Fang immediately took the three magical artifacts and left the small island.
He didn't know the situation of those two in the West, so it was better to leave this place of trouble.
As Xu Fang flew aimlessly over the sea, he reviewed his gains and losses.
This time, it was a close call, having been pushed to the brink by the Western duo.
Fortunately, the Liang Tian Chi finally exerted its power, threatening the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree to defect, otherwise, if they had fought head-on, his chances of winning would not have been high.
"In the final analysis, my own strength is too low, not enough to awe others!"
Xu Fang sighed. If it were like this again next time, his so-called treasure hunting would merely be preparing a wedding dress for them.
If others suppressed him, knowing his marvels, he might even be forced to become a human-shaped, self-propelled artifact detector.
Hearing Xu Fang's words, the Liang Tian Chi immediately understood his troubles and tried to comfort him.
"Little Xu, you don't need to sigh. The Great Desolation is like this, strength is paramount!"
"Speaking of which, you need to improve your strength as soon as possible, otherwise you won't be able to unleash our full power."
The Liang Tian Chi's words were quite reasonable. Although Xu Fang had a unique divine ability to communicate with magical artifacts, allowing him to perform many unexpected maneuvers that others couldn't, in essence, he was still far from fully unleashing their power.
Otherwise, a supreme killing artifact like the Liang Tian Chi wouldn't have resorted to sneak attacks several times.
Xu Fang understood that he needed to improve his strength as soon as possible.
He thought back to how his previous treasure hunts had been too smooth, causing him to relax his vigilance and only focus on collecting treasures, neglecting to improve his strength.
However, the Great Desolation not only had reasonable people like Fu Xi and Nu Wa, but also unreasonable ones like Daoist Zhun Ti and Daoist Jie Yin.
Most importantly, people like those in the West were the majority in the Great Desolation!
Therefore, Xu Fang knew that his immediate priority was to improve his strength as soon as possible.
However, it was easier said than done, and Xu Fang sighed.
"Do I need to go into seclusion and cultivate?"
Xu Fang shook his head. This was the simplest, but also the most foolish and time-consuming method.
Xu Fang naturally didn't want to follow such a step-by-step approach. He, who came from humble beginnings, was already far behind in terms of aptitude, and if he cultivated this way, how could he compare to others?
"Is Little Xu an idiot?"
The Liang Tian Chi sighed, somewhat disappointed.
"Aren't you blessed with great fortune? You can completely search for treasures that aid cultivation and increase your cultivation!"
The Liang Tian Chi also disdained mere head-down cultivation and suggested that Xu Fang search for cultivation treasures.
After all, despite his ordinary background, this young man had encountered treasures several times on his outings, and his fortune was indeed profound.
The Liang Tian Chi speculated that this was because Xu Fang, originating from a spiritual herb, was himself a treasure, and thus could attract treasures from heaven and earth.
Xu Fang's eyes lit up upon hearing this.
"Yes, why didn't I think of that?"
Xu Fang immediately stopped. The Liang Tian Chi thought he was carefully sensing where treasures were, and said to the Ruyi Golden Cudgel and the Six Roots Pure Bamboo.
"Don't rush, don't rush. This boy will take us treasure hunting in a moment."
The Ruyi Golden Cudgel and the Six Roots Pure Bamboo nodded repeatedly, marveling at Xu Fang's prowess.
They had no idea that Xu Fang had a different intention.
Glancing at the treasure map beside him, Xu Fang found that it only marked magical artifacts and some more famous spiritual roots. He immediately asked in his mind.
"System, why does your treasure map only have these treasures?"
The system's voice quickly responded to Xu Fang.
"Ding!"
"The treasure map only marks the locations of members in the group, including official and unofficial members."
Xu Fang then continued to ask.
"No! This is very wrong!"
"Think about it, your treasure map is called a treasure map. As the name suggests, it should mark all the treasures in the Great Desolation on the map."
"Now there are only magical artifacts and some more famous spiritual roots. Isn't that misleading?"
"Are those spiritual herbs and medicines not considered treasures, or do you look down on them?"
"You haven't even marked treasures like the Three Light Divine Water. Although I know it's lying inside the Liang Tian Chi, if you are a treasure map, how can you omit them?"
Xu Fang spoke without stopping, saying that the treasure map was not living up to its name.
Xu Fang had felt something was wrong for a long time, but he hadn't paid much attention to it.
Now, thinking of searching for treasures that could enhance his cultivation to help himself improve.
Xu Fang naturally wouldn't expend effort searching. To become stronger, it was most convenient to rely on the system and the chat group.
Since the system had left such a bug this time, Xu Fang naturally intended to make good use of it!
