On a frigid wilderness plain somewhere on the 7th Floor of the Void Shattering Tower.
The air rippled like the surface of a calm lake disturbed by falling droplets.
Immediately afterward, Xu Jingming, Su Qingli, and the Crimson Radiance Gilded Guardian controlled by Eva were teleported over.
"We made it out."
Xu Jingming let out a breath, delight appearing on his face.
In that last wave alone, he had gathered more than a hundred thousand Void Stones.
If they added together everyone's haul, it would definitely be an astonishing number!
Even a faint flush had appeared on Su Qingli's usually cool, fair face.
She had obtained many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures before, and had even acquired some while confronting Ninth-Order Beast Emperors in the Wilderness Area.
But stealing things right under the nose of a Ninth-Order Peak being was a first for her.
The novelty of the experience left her nervous, but also filled her with a different kind of... thrill.
"Alright, it's time to count our gains."
Xu Jingming waved a hand and spoke first. "In that last wave, I collected a total of 164,000 Void Stones."
"I have 140,000 here as well." After taking a deep breath and calming herself somewhat, Su Qingli replied.
"I got the least, only 50,000.

Eva muttered in dissatisfaction.
The Crimson Radiance Gilded Guardian possessed the combat strength of an A-class Seventh-Order Peak.

"That's already pretty good." Xu Jingming smiled. "Little Lian has another 213,000 Void Stones.
That means we obtained a total of 567,000 Void Stones!"
"567,000? That many?"
Su Qingli was somewhat stunned.
That entire area
