Chapter 341: 341
Seeing Long Xue and the rest struggling to pull at the lid of the tripod, Xiao Jinting thought that it must be very heavy. Two demonic beasts at Peak Nascent Soul level and three human Nascent Souls used up their strength and could only move the lid a little. If they were not watching out, the lid would be closed again.
Xiao Jinting recalled that Ye Mi mentioned that the tripod couldn’t be collected with the space ring, but under some special circumstances, the treasures in the tripod could be collected.
It suddenly occurred to Xiao Jinting that the jade space might be able to collect the tripod.
The jade space was a wonderful place, where there was spiritual spring to water the spiritual herbs and a time cultivation room. What a magical place!
His jade space might be capable of things that ordinary space ring couldn’t achieve.
Xiao Jinting observed Long Xue and the others in the distance for more than ten days. Long Xue and the others had been tugging at the lid. Xiao Jinting finally realized that this was a long haul, and it had been going on like this for a long time.
Xiao Jinting waited for another twenty days before a quarter of the lid of the tripod was moved away. Six items flew out from the tripod, and the lid was closed again.
Once the tripod was closed, the five people who had worked together started to fight for the treasures against each other.
Xiao Jinting took the chance and approached the tripod, trying to collect the Tripod of Heaven and Earth.
To his surprise, the tripod was put away in the jade space.
Xiao Jinting was excited, but soon he got scared.
The Nascent Souls fought hard for any treasure from the Tripod of Heaven and Earth, and they would tear him to pieces if they knew that he had collected the whole tripod.
Xiao Jinting quickly fled down to the eighth floor. Right after him arrived there, Long Xue and the others started to hunt him.
When Xiao Jinting collected the Tripod of Heaven and Earth, the mirage in the desert was gone.
Long Xue and the rest quickly realized that something was wrong. They rushed to the location of the tripod and found that it was gone.
They stopped fighting for the treasures from the tripod, as the things in the tripod were nothing compared to the tripod itself.
…
On the eighth floor of the Tower of Babel.
“Did Xiao Jinting really take the Tripod of Heaven and Earth?” Cao He could not believe that Xiao Jinting was capable of that.
“Only six people went up to the ninth floor. We three were fighting against Long Xue and Fu Li, and none of us had the chance to steal the tripod. Besides, if Long Xue had been able to collect the tripod, she would not have waited that long,” Miao Qing said.
Cao He frowned and said, “I’m surprised that he has made such a big commotion. I now believe that the monsters on the eighth floor have been killed by him.”
“We have to find him as soon as possible. If Long Xue and Fu Li get him first, we can’t have anything, “Xie Cheng said coldly.
“How did Xiao Jinting make it? So many high-level cultivators in Nebula had tried it so many times, and none of them succeeded. But Xiao Jinting is only a Golden Core…” Miao Qing said.

Cao He said with a cold face, “We don’t need to know how he did it. When we catch him, we will make him talk and know everything.”
“Long Xue and Fu Li are not easy to deal with.” Xie Cheng was worried.
Cao He said indignantly, “The demonic beasts are liars. At first, they agreed that the treasures would be divided evenly, but later they went back on their words.”
Before the five of them worked together to open the tripod, they agreed that they would divide the gains evenly. However, six treasures came out, and Long Xue and Fu Li grabbed five of them and left one to the three humans, as if they were doing charity. In the end, the sixth treasure went to Xie Cheng, who made it up for Cao He and Miao Qing out of his own pocket.
“Don’t you know about Long Xue? Forget it. The treasures from the tripod are nothing compared to the tripod, “Xie Cheng said with glinting eyes.
Cao He nodded and said: “You’re right.” Compared to the tripod, the things that flew out were nothing. If they got the tripod, they would not be short of treasures.
…
Long Xue angrily walked on the eighth floor. “Where is this damn cockroach hiding?”
Fu Li crossed his arms over his chest and said, “On the eighth floor, even if you find Xiao Jinting, you won’t be able to catch him.”
Long Xue turned her head and glared at Fu Li, who smiled and said, “Don’t look at me that way. I know that you haven’t resorted to some methods, but that guy may have other methods.”
Long Xue said viciously, “If I had known about his capabilities, I should have given him hell when I caught him in the beginning.” In fact, Long Xue had found that Xiao Jinting was special long ago, and she thought of scanning his soul. However, she was overconfident, thinking he would not possibly escape from her, so she missed the best chance.
Fu Li smiled bitterly and said, “It is too late to regret.”
Long Xue clenched her fists. She had caught Xiao Jinting on impulse before, but now she felt rueful.
“Long Xue, be patient. He will go out of the tower sooner or later.” Fu Li smiled.
Long Xue snorted softly. She had thought of that as well. She couldn’t deal with this guy in the tower, but she could easily get him when they go out. Although she was confident about that, she was worried that something unexpected might come up.
