After a brief pause, seeing all eyes focused on him, the elder with gray-white beard slowly spoke: "I believe what we should discuss is, if we obtain that treasure, how we should handle it."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately retorted: "Are you so confident that the treasure will definitely fall into the hands of Xiao Tian and his group?"

"Even if someone else gets it, with all of us putting in effort, shouldn't there be a plan for after we snatch it?"

The gray-white bearded elder retorted, unwilling to back down: "Do we really need to have internal conflicts after we've snatched the treasure?!"

As soon as his words fell, the elder's viewpoint received a large amount of support, even though it was uncertain that Xiao Tian and the Kunlun Sect would obtain the treasure, or even if it could be snatched.

But such matters must be addressed, otherwise, once the treasure is seized, would they risk being robbed by others and stay put to argue and discuss?

If they truly did that, perhaps the treasure would change hands before they'd come to a decision!

Thus, these matters must be discussed in advance to prevent unnecessary trouble and conflicts.

Immediately, without waiting for Saintly Sea Daoist to speak, everyone began to fall into deep thought, striving to find a solution that seemed fair, slightly favored their own sect, and yet did not meet with objections.

Watching all of this with a cold glance, Saintly Sea Daoist, amidst the falling fine snow, looked up at the clear blue sky and felt like letting out a long sigh.

Instead of thinking about how to get the item first, they were already thinking about how to divide it after getting it. These people are either brain-dead or idiots!

In the field, the more than half of the disappeared Biochemical Beasts were desperately resisting the attacks from the two women, while Lin Bingxuan and Melinda, who had won such victory, only had slightly flushed faces due to excessive consumption.

The remaining Biochemical Beasts were not urgently eliminated by the two, instead they focused mostly on recovering True Qi, slowly resolving the beasts' attacks with pure physical strength.

Although the intervals between their True Qi attacks were becoming longer, each strike was accompanied by destructive power, giving these beasts with tenacious regenerative abilities no chance to recover.

Throughout the battle, Lin Bingxuan consciously restrained herself. She never used the same straightforward Energy Bullet as before, slowly experiencing changes in moves, practicing timing and adaptive changes.

Feeling greatly rewarded, although Lin Bingxuan felt a little sore and uncomfortable physically, her inner excitement was hard to conceal. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Melinda, beside her, showed a genuine smile. Although this method wasn't greatly beneficial for her, seeing Bingxuan go from initial fluster to current ease.

While admiring Lin Bingxuan's extraordinary talent, she also felt genuinely happy for her. Being a master herself, she understood that this was an opportunity for the former, a necessary experience.

Pushing too hard for progress can only be detrimental. It might not show now, but the future would become difficult. Besides, Lin Bingxuan's displayed talent was enough to awe most people!

At this moment, even a fool should realize something was wrong, and the five high-level members of the Water Drop Organization were clearly no fools.

Seeing their precious Biochemical Beasts being used as a grindstone for self-improvement, the five's faces turned iron blue, refraining several times from intervening.

Watching Ghost Face and others maintain a combat-ready stance, the five high-level officials couldn't help but curse inwardly. Are these people never tired?!

Yet, curse as they might, the strength of Ghost Face and Celestial Punishment Daoist was evident. With them constantly prepared for action, the five high-level officials didn't dare to make a careless move.

Moments later, two more Biochemical Beasts were declared out of commission, finally making the five uneasy; even if they were wealthy, this wasn't sustainable.

With cold expressions, they recalled their Biochemical Beasts, beginning to operate their Cultivation Techniques, clearly preparing to act.

After several tests without Ghost Face or others reacting behind Lin Bingxuan and Melinda, a rather humiliating question formed in the minds of the five.

Could it be that they intended for those two women to face the five alone, aiming to increase their strength?!

If that's indeed the case, it would be a huge insult. The five could clearly see that among the two women, only the one in fiery red attire seemed tricky.

While the one wearing a blue and white checkered coat displayed extraordinary talent and decent True Qi damage, there were evident shortcomings in detail handling and move linking.

Thus, the opponent's intention became blatantly obvious!

Realizing this, the five Water Drop Organization high-level members seriously pondered if this was a decoy tactic to seize an opportunity and launch a surprise attack?

Or did they really intend to use themselves as a test for those two women?

Either scenario wasn't good, but simply stalling wasn't an option. If the others took the initiative, they couldn't just stand there and take it, right?!

However, once they took action, what if the experts behind the two seized the opportunity to attack them?

It's understandable for the five to think so. Earlier Biochemical Beasts were nothing, but against them, facing the five with just two women seemed like a suicidal move, as a grindstone too hard could also damage the blade!

The more they thought about it, the more hesitant they became, not daring to act. Their high ranks in the Water Drop Organization were less than the top level, achieving their positions at great cost.

If reckless action led to failure, everything they'd worked for would vanish!

When the last mutated giant ant also returned, the five suddenly noticed that the woman in the black and white checkered coat seemed eager to launch a preemptive strike, causing them to widen their eyes involuntarily.

At this moment, Thunder King Salon, lurking in the dark, keenly sensed a thread of eeriness, which didn't stem from Lin Bingxuan's side.

Rather... the surrounding noise abruptly ceased, as if the world had fallen into a sudden silence.

If not for faint sounds still reaching his ears, Thunder King Salon would have thought his hearing was failing.

Realizing something significant must have happened in the scene, Thunder King Salon knew such an odd occurrence couldn't have happened for nothing. Something capable of silencing such a large crowd...

Thunder King Salon immediately turned his gaze to the center of the lake, noticing the Five Elements crystal inexplicably starting to move, slowly drifting toward the distance by itself.

To an ordinary person, they might think the Five Elements crystal had an automatic anomaly, but Thunder King Salon didn't think so.
