Even if there is damage to the Spiritual Objects, it's better than falling into someone else's hands.

However, as the number of cultivators on the other side increased, all the cultivators on the Three Mysterious Sect's side had to stop their actions and moved outside the Spirit Field to confront them.

The two sides were separated by several miles, distinctly divided, and the atmosphere was not harmonious at all; rather, it was tense and confrontational, with the scent of gunpowder gradually growing stronger.

With just a spark, a fierce battle could erupt immediately!

"Fellow Daoists, since ancient times, Spiritual Objects have belonged to those who are worthy. You've already harvested a large amount of Spiritual Objects earlier; don't be too greedy," a Loose Cultivator Earth Immortal kindly reminded.

"Hmph!"

A Earth Immortal from the Three Mysterious Sect snorted disdainfully and said, "You're talking so righteously, but aren't you thinking about putting all the Spiritual Objects in your pocket?!"

"These Spiritual Objects were planted by our families many years ago, not wild Spiritual Objects without owners. Please, everyone, leave!" Another Earth Immortal's attitude was modest but very firm.

In any case, they would not give up these Spiritual Objects.

Not to mention the time spent growing the Spiritual Objects, they have waited for many years for this; just talking about these Spirit Seeds, they are quite valuable and rare, not something easily obtained.

"It seems we still need to measure strength and determine the victor," another Earth Immortal from the opposing camp was equally determined, unwilling to back down.

Since persuasion was ineffective, they chose to act directly!

Although their side had two or three fewer Earth Immortal cultivators, in terms of numbers, they were three to four times more than the opposing side, and the disparity in strength was not that significant.

Moreover, cultivators on their side kept arriving and joining in, unlike the Three Mysterious Sect's cultivators, most of whom were already here!

So as long as they held on, victory would inevitably belong to them.

As for how the Spiritual Objects would be distributed? That's a matter for later.

"Ha! A group of people caught in a scheme, inadvertently becoming pawns; can they even get a single Spirit Object in the end?"

Evidently, the cultivators from the Three Mysterious Sect's side also realized this issue and attempted to use it to sow discord among the crowd, trying to gain more time for themselves.

"Offended!"

But the cultivators on the other side naturally would not let them succeed; as soon as those words were spoken, several Earth Immortals took the lead and launched an attack.

Rumble—

Powerful and dazzling Spirit Light Divine Powers exploded forth from the palms of several individuals.

Then, a thunderbolt of over ten feet descended from the sky, followed by ice blades falling like torrential rain, and a mountain several hundred feet tall...

Some cultivators with lower cultivation levels were just looking at these Divine Powers and felt panic-stricken, fearing that the attacks might hit them and easily wipe out their lives.

"Hmph!"

"Pitiful skills dare make a fool of themselves here?!"

The faces of the Earth Immortals from the Three Mysterious Sect sank; they coldly reprimanded and also displayed their Divine Powers, whose power far exceeded the others'.

This was a slight advantage that sect, and family cultivators had against Loose Cultivators.

With Earth Immortal cultivators already engaging in a fierce battle, other cultivators naturally could not stand by and watch; they brought out their best skills to join the fight.

"Die for me!"

"Go to hell!"

...

Various words filled with anger and fury erupted again and again in this area, now reduced to a battlefield.

But the next moment, they were covered by the sounds of explosions and roaring, during which several screams and cries of anguish could be faintly heard.

Just listening to these noises gives one an idea of how fierce the battle is.

Fortunately, both sides retained a trace of sanity, knowing to stay away from the Spirit Field to avoid damaging the Spiritual Objects during the fight, lest they end up with nothing.

Within an hour of the battle breaking out, the ground was covered with a layer of corpses, with blood flowing freely and flesh scattered everywhere, making it look more like a cursed land than a Spirit Land.

As the number of casualties increased, both sides gradually became consumed by True Fire, fighting not just to seize the Spiritual Objects but to kill the other!

Then, on the third day of the battle, the first Earth Immortal cultivator fell!

However, the death of this Earth Immortal from the Loose Cultivator side did not stop the battle; instead, it intensified both sides' fights.

After all, by now, both parties were already exhausted, unable to hold on much longer.

The Three Mysterious Sect's side believed that their high-end combat was more powerful, and as long as they abandoned face, they would definitely be able to deal with this chaotic crowd.

While the other cultivators thought that their side had a larger number of people, and with more cultivators arriving to support them, as long as they persevered, victory would surely belong to them!

Both sides held onto these thoughts, gritting their teeth to persist, waiting for the other side to collapse so they could claim victory.

But they forgot one thing: the current battlefield was already quite far from the Spirit Field!

The cultivators on the fringes of the battle couldn't even see a shadow of the Spirit Field anymore.

And under such circumstances, an unexpected event occurred!

"Not good!"

A cultivator trained in Pupil Skill had just dealt with an opponent. As he looked up towards the Spirit Field, he saw something that made him boil with rage, shouting in shock and anger, "The Spiritual Objects have all been harvested!"

"What!?"

The surrounding cultivators, upon hearing this, felt as if a bone-chilling cold water had been poured over them, waking them from the battle instantaneously.

Ignoring that their sides were enemies they were just engaged with a moment ago in a deadly fight, they all flew towards the Spirit Field as fast as they could.

Then they saw what used to be an area full of Spiritual Objects in the Spirit Field, now turned into a barren patch; there weren't even any leaves or roots visible!

Boom—

An earth-shattering explosion occurred in everyone's mind. They were all hit, dizzy and disoriented, standing there in a daze.

"We're in trouble!"

"Stop fighting! The Spiritual Objects are gone!"

Several cultivators suddenly came to their senses and hurriedly shouted loudly, but their voices could not hide the sobbing cries.

They risked their lives fighting not far away for a share of the Spiritual Objects, but reality had dealt them a heavy blow they could not bear.

"Ahhhh!"

Many cultivators seemed to go crazy, screaming frantically.

Such commotion naturally attracted the attention of other cultivators; many flew over successively, and at first glance, they saw the barren Spirit Field.

"What's going on?!"

"Where are the Spiritual Objects, why are they all gone?"

Even the few Earth Immortals who arrived later faintly felt dizzy when they witnessed this scene.

"Was it you who secretly sent cultivators to steal those Spiritual Objects?" a cultivator from the Three Mysterious Sect suddenly accused loudly.

"Nonsense! We've been engaged in battle, having no time for such petty theft. I think it's you who did it, knowing you weren't our match, so you used this trick to harvest the Spiritual Objects!"

"Who says we aren't your match!"

...

Both sides were already agitated. Now, because of the sudden disappearance of the Spiritual Objects, they inevitably exploded into conflict again. With more and more cultivators joining in, another fierce battle seemed imminent!

"Enough!"

"Everyone, shut up!"

One Earth Immortal was so annoyed by the noise that he unleashed his full authority, forcing these cultivators to be quiet, then turned to the other Earth Immortals opposite him, asking with a tired yet probing tone, "Fellow Daoists, what do you think happened here?"

"It must have been some thief who, while we were inattentive, secretly stole those Spiritual Objects!"

One Earth Immortal spoke with clenched teeth and eyes full of anger, "This matter cannot be let go; among those are precious Spiritual Objects needed for the Three Elements Ascension Pill!"

At the same time, he felt deeply regretful, wishing he had prioritized collecting the mature Spiritual Objects first rather than worrying about damaging them.
