C416 Ninety-nine Blood-stained Steps
At the same time, in the ancestral hall of Xiao family and Lu family, the two life lamps were extinguished at the same time. The elder in charge of guarding the life lamps was almost scared to death, because the life lamps that couldn't be extinguished were extinguished.
The question that it represented really made people shiver. The fall of the Young Lord and the death of the heir of a super major power was enough to cause a huge commotion. Even they would be easily implicated and die!
Soon, two pieces of news were spread across the Middle Ancient Xiao family and the Middle Ancient Lu family. Of course, it was only limited to the higher ups of the family. Even so, it still caused a huge earthquake. Those experts almost couldn't believe what they had just heard.
One must know that the current Young Lord had already grown. They were at the Mid Layer 7 of the Star Martial realm, and they were considered experts in the entire Eastern Victory Continent. They also had powerful protective treasures. However, they didn't expect that they would still die so easily.
The higher ups of the family didn't dare to hide this kind of news. It had already spread to the ears of the family's old ancestor and the family head. It was imaginable that it would cause an even more astonishing fury.
A person had died in the floating ruins. There was no way to find the murderer. Perhaps he had died in a dangerous place. Therefore, the two families could only suffer silently and were temporarily powerless.
Lu Zhibai and Xiao Kuangsheng had been killed. Next, to Ji Chen and Fifth Nature's Mystery, the biggest problem was how to distribute that thorny crown. One had to know that this was a precious Medicine King!
The preciousness of a Medicine King, to cultivators below the Martial Progenitor, possessed a fatal attraction. However, Ji Chen and Fifth Nature's Mystery were different from others. In the end, they were both people with high morals and integrity, and disdained to mess around with these messy things.
In the end, this thorny crown belonged to Ji Chen. Ji Chen cultivated it in the Fire Emperor Palace and received the nourishment of the divine earth in the Fire Emperor Palace, as well as the irrigation of the Martial Emperor's blood essence. It could quickly improve the quality!
As soon as the thorny crown was planted, the aggressive White Tiger King Medicine pounced on it. It opened its mouth wide and was about to swallow it. The thorny crown squeaked in fear, but it couldn't escape from the claws of the White Tiger King Medicine!
Luckily, Ji Chen kept watching and quickly dismissed the White Tiger Medicine King. Otherwise, this new herb king would have been refined by the White Tiger Medicine King. Ji Chen really wanted to cry but had no tears.
After retreating, the White Tiger Medicine King lay on the side unhappily. However, it still stared at the Bramble King Crown. Its eyes were filled with a fierce light, as if it could pounce on it at any time. Its saliva was sparkling and translucent.
As for Fifth Nature's Mystery, Ji Chen also gave him sufficient compensation. He took out a trace of Asura Martial Emperor's blood essence and diluted it slightly before giving it to Fifth Nature's Mystery. He almost made Fifth Nature's Mystery go crazy with joy!
In his opinion, this kind of thing was even more precious than an ordinary herb king. Don't forget, when the old patriarch of Heavenly Net Division, who was a Heaven Tier expert, saw it, he was so happy that he was bursting with joy, let alone Fifth Nature's Mystery!
With this kind of cultivation resources, Fifth Nature's Mystery would be able to improve his cultivation even better. He would be able to reach the Great Circle of the Star Martial Arts University in the shortest amount of time, and even break through to the Celestial Stage!
Next, Ji Chen and Fifth Nature's Mystery destroyed all traces of this place, eliminating many traces of this place. After that, they turned around and continued their search in this floating island.
Ten days and ten nights passed in a flash. There were too many good things here. Even without Ji Chen's luck and powerful strength, many of them would still be able to make a fortune and leave with a full load.
The news of the birth of ninth grade precious medicine had caused numerous conflicts. The seven major powers had started fighting each other. Every day, a large number of experts would fall and the island would be dyed in blood!
However, no matter how hard the big guy searched, or how many devas searched, they still couldn't find the place where Floating Patriarch had fallen. One must know that that was the place where the most precious items were kept.
"Kacha!" Ji Chen took out a huge crystal from a small cave in an ancient mountain range. "Redhole Sparrow Stone! It's a treasure of the Martial Highness Realm. Although it's not a lot, it's still very precious!"
"It's my turn now!" Fifth Nature's Mystery walked toward the cave excitedly. He rolled up his sleeves and reached into the cave too. After searching the cave for a while, he wore a strange look on his face.
"What's wrong? Did you not find anything? "Ji Chen asked curiously, "There should be more Redhole Sparrow Stones."
Fifth Nature's Mystery shook his head." There is something, but it doesn't seem to be Peacock Stone. How should I describe it? It is wet and some parts are furry."
Fifth Nature's Mystery's face twisted after he said that. He was filled with indescribable fear and panic. "Awoo, that thing is alive. It's biting me!"
The next moment, the mountain exploded. A large weasel rushed out from it. The wet thing that Fifth Nature's Mystery touched just now was its nose!
A powerful heavenly might erupted. It turned out to be a Celestial Stage weasel. Although it was only at the Layer 1, it was still terrifying enough. With just a head, it almost impregnated Fifth Nature's Mystery, causing him to spurt out blood. Many of his bones were broken.
"Fifth Nature's Mystery, are you alright? You're not dead yet, right? "Ji Chen didn't dare to be neglectful. He quickly took out his Overlord Cauldron, and a rich energy burst out crazily, blocking the next attack of the weasel.
Fifth Nature's Mystery endured the pain and forced himself to stand up. While he was healing, he used the compass in his hand. "Is the difference between a human and a human that big? They are both out to seek treasures, so why is it always you who takes advantage of others? I am always the one getting hurt! "
The weasel was awakened from its deep sleep. It was also extremely angry in its heart. It kept jumping up and down along the way, swearing to kill Ji Chen and Fifth Nature's Mystery.
"Bang!"
How could Ji Chen be willing to get used to this kind of illness? Taking advantage of the moment when the weasel's claw fell, Ji Chen used the Overlord Cauldron to stop it, and then the Immortal Slaughtering Sword chopped off one of its claws!
"Haha, you're finished! You aren't the number one Celestial Being that died under this Tyrannical Body, so you don't have to feel uncomfortable and aggrieved!"
Ji Chen held the sword with both hands, and used the Overlord Cauldron as a steel helmet to cover his head. He charged forward just like that. Fifth Nature's Mystery followed by Ji Chen's side bravely, and the compass opened up a Layer 1 light screen.
"Pu!"
No matter how many times he calculated, he never expected that the weasel would turn around and let out a fart. The entire world had turned into a yellow world. It was hard to describe this smell. That's right, there was no ready-made language that could describe how terrible it was!
Ji Chen, who was arrogant and domineering a moment ago, suddenly had a pair of blood-red eyes. His face became twisted and distorted. He looked as ugly as he could be. Then, he stretched out his four claws and smashed them on the ground with a bang.
Fifth Nature's Mystery was also the first to bear the brunt of the attack. Tears flowed down his face. He fell to the ground with Ji Chen. He felt that the smell went through his nose and into his trachea. Then, his stomach started to protest!
"Urgh! Urgh! Urgh!"
Ji Chen and Fifth Nature's Mystery were lying on the ground and vomiting crazily. They almost vomited out their hearts, spleen, lungs, and kidneys. The fart of the weasel was too scary. Both of their bodies and minds were traumatized by it!
The weasel was very insidious. Its cunning little eyes rolled around. It wanted to take advantage of the time when the two of them were vomiting to make a move. However, it did not prevent the Immortal Slaughtering Sword and the Overlord Cauldron from crazily reviving. Two vast streams of Qi scared it away.
Ji Chen and Fifth Nature's Mystery took a long time to catch their breath. Ji Chen's face was green and miserable. Fifth Nature's Mystery's face was green and green. Both of them felt bad. They almost doubted their lives at the scene.
It took them a long time to react. Both of them had made up their minds. If they were to fight with weasel creatures in the future, they had to hold their breath, close their mouths, and prepare to seal their five senses at any time!
Otherwise, this smell was really too terrifying. After burning their bodies with the Divine Fire of Tushita, they washed away the disgusting and sticky smell.
"Let's go! Let's continue to search for treasures. Today, we also have to be extremely full of vitality!" Ji Chen was half-dead and shouting his slogan. He flew forward.
Another two days passed. At a certain moment, Ji Chen's spiritual sense suddenly jumped. This was the feeling of a sudden impulse. "There's treasure ahead. Follow me!"
Ji Chen turned into a ray of light and walked forward. He followed the feeling and crossed over a tall mountain and a big river. Finally, he heard it on a desolate land covered in dark clouds.
"Something's not right. I heard a sound here just now. It seemed like it was attacking something. Why did it suddenly disappear?" Ji Chen said with some doubt. He looked around but found nothing.
Fifth Nature's Mystery's hands formed a seal, but the compass in front of him did not stop spinning. "The divination is blurry. I can't figure it out! It's also because my cultivation is too weak, I can't derive the true essence of the Heavenly Algorithm, hateful! "
"Let's not worry about that for now, let's go and see the treasure first." Ji Chen continued walking forward. Not long after, he saw a flight of stairs that was embedded into the ground diagonally.
There were a total of ninety-nine steps on this flight of stairs. Every Layer 1 was very broad and huge. They looked like they were forged from some kind of ancient white jade, but they were stained with the marks of time.
0
There were traces of blood on this flight of stairs. From the first to the ninety-ninth step, it had been dyed with blood. This blood was extraordinary. It had actually seeped into the jade, and it was emitting a demonic color like the pupils of wild beasts.
"That treasure should be this 90th step of the Layer 9." Ji Chen said in surprise. He carefully approached the stairs, trying to find out the secret behind it.
"Buzz!"
Just as Ji Chen arrived at the bottom of the stairs, a Layer 1 light burst out. The waterfall-like light flowed across the entire stairs. From top to bottom, it was as if the light had been washed by water, and was now alive.
"Amazing! I'm afraid that this flight of stairs is a treasure that can only be refined by Martial Emperors. The Dao Law contained within it is too high level. Not to mention deciphering it, just a single glance from it can make my mind sway."
Ji Chen was praising. His horizons were very high. According to his initial judgment, this flight of stairs should belong to a Venerable Martial Sovereign. It was a realm where one could see through the heavens!
The sound of footsteps was slow but steady. Ji Chen wanted to climb up and take a look, but at this moment, the alarm in his heart suddenly flared up and his expression changed. "Not good!"
He felt a strong sound of rushing wind behind his head. A heavy object was fiercely smashing down on his head!
"Ah!"
Before this thing hit Ji Chen, there was an unwilling scream from not far away. Ji Chen could tell that it was Fifth Nature's Mystery's voice!
Obviously, Ji Chen was not the only one who was plotted against, Fifth Nature's Mystery was also behind it. With Fifth Nature's Mystery's strength, there was no room for him to resist. He was subdued in an instant.
The sound of heavy objects falling to the ground was heard. Ji Chen saw Fifth Nature's Mystery falling out of the corner of his eyes. There were tears in the corners of his eyes, as if he was mocking this heartless world.
