Chapter 319 Preliminary Plan

Ye Wumian frowned slightly. This wooden stick didn't look like a magic weapon, and there was no spiritual energy fluctuation on it. How could it block his attack?

He was too lazy to think about it and just walked away. No matter what it was, it had nothing to do with him.

As soon as he raised his foot, the monsters that had only besieged the group of disciples now all pounced towards him.

The disciple who spoke first took the opportunity to put away the wooden stick, with a look of pride on his success on his face.

"Brother Ye, you've also been infected with its scent. You can't leave."

Ye Wumian killed the group of monsters with just a few moves.

From what he said, were these monsters suddenly attacking him because of the wooden stick?

Is it just because the sword energy collided with it?

The disciple holding the stick was still chattering, not noticing Ye Wumian's dark expression. "Brother Ye, we all came to the island for opportunities. Now that you and your brothers have a great opportunity, how about we join forces? I'll provide the information, and you'll use the force. When we get something, we'll split it equally."

Ye Wumian usually didn't pay much attention to news from the outside world. Sects were established one day, and others closed the next. These kinds of things happened every day, countless times. Apart from a few familiar sects, he didn't know many disciples from other sects.

At least he didn't recognize the group of people in front of him.

He asked, "Do I know you?"

The disciple holding the stick paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Senior Brother Ye is a direct disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect, so naturally he wouldn't recognize insignificant figures like us. However, we did meet Senior Brother Ye in a secret realm once. Thanks to Senior Brother Ye's timely intervention, we were able to escape from the secret realm alive."

Ye Wumian twitched the corner of his mouth: "Oh, so they are a bunch of ungrateful people."

Everyone choked: “······”

This is clearly a win-win situation.

This person doesn't know what's good for him.

If he wasn't needed right now, who would want to be so hypocritical with him here?

The young man continued patiently, "Senior Brother Ye is an upright man. He naturally disdains to compete with others for these things. It's just that we are not strong enough, so we resorted to this desperate measure."

"This stone stick has a special smell. Anyone who gets it on will be hunted down by this monster. Senior Brother Ye probably doesn't want to go anywhere without a potential threat. Don't you agree?"

Ye Wumian lowered his head and smiled.

I couldn't help but reflect in my heart, was it because I was too gentle to others in the past that people thought I was so easy to get along with?

He never took what others had. Firstly, those things were of little use to him; secondly, as fellow monks, he did not bully the weak.

Now...

Ye Wumian swept across the crowd and swung out a sword. Everyone was shocked, as they had never expected him to suddenly attack.

A powerful aura enveloped them, making their hair stand on end.

Not to mention that they were not prepared, even if they were prepared, they would not be able to withstand this attack.

Everyone was knocked away, fell to the ground, and vomited blood.

Ye Wumian took the wooden stick in his hand and said, "I'll accept the things, but there's no need for cooperation."

He paused for a moment to feel his surroundings and listen to the noises. A large number of monsters were approaching.

This aura should be much stronger than those who died on the ground.

"I'm leaving...you guys take care of yourselves."

He generally doesn't bully the weak, except for those who are plotting against him.

Ye Wumian's figure had disappeared. The group of monks blamed each other, but before they could come to a conclusion, danger approached.

By the time they reacted, there was already no way to escape. After a brief struggle, they all became food for the monsters.

After the monsters had eaten and drunk their fill, they chased in the direction of Ye Wumian again.

······

At this moment, in a dark and deep cave, the light was extremely weak.

The three little black men were crouching, moving in the cave with difficulty, cautiously and slowly.

In the center of the cave, a colorful purple flower bloomed quietly.

It is particularly eye-catching in the dark environment, and each petal is sparkling with a strange light, which is breathtakingly beautiful.

Not far away, three enormous snake demons clung to the cave wall in a triangular formation. Their bodies were stout, their scales gleaming coldly in the dim light. They stared intently at the flowers, their fist-sized green pupils filled with greed. As their tongues moved, they exuded a chilling aura.

The three little black men approached cautiously and could still feel the pure spiritual power emanating from the flower.

They each found a corner to sit down, blending into the darkness and absorbing spiritual energy stealthily.

When they had almost absorbed enough, they crouched down again and carefully returned the same way, without making any noise.

After leaving the danger zone, the three stopped.

One of the boys exhaled.

"When will days like this end?"

He took out the spirit jade and took a look, but there was still no signal. He didn't know whether the eldest brother and the others had reunited with the younger sister.

The person who spoke was Su Xun who had lost contact. From the time he entered the island to the time he woke up, he had fallen into such a desolate place.

It was pitch black all around, with no sunlight at all.

You can't use strong light, as it will attract snakes. You can only rely on a dim light source to illuminate the area.

On the road leading to the exit, there are three giant snake monsters lurking.

They wanted to get out and kill the snake demon first.

The three snake demons were all at the Spirit Transformation Stage, and they couldn't defeat any of them.

Song Hui said calmly, "There are three ways: First, we break through to the Spiritual Transformation stage, kill the snake demon and get out."

"Second, we fail, are killed by the snake demon, and are buried here forever."

"Three, our fellow disciples found this place, killed the snake demon, and rescued us."

Zhuo Hua, disregarding his image, lay sprawled on the ground, saying dejectedly, "I've been living in such fear and treacherous conditions stealing spiritual energy every day. I might be discovered by the snake demon before I even reach the level of a spirit."

"Besides, this island is only open for one month. Even if we are lucky and our dog reaches the level of a spirit, there is a high chance that we will miss the time to leave the island. We may be sealed off from this island forever, never to see the light of day."

Su Xun kicked him and said, "You crow's mouth, stop talking."

He still remembers that Zhuo Hua’s words were effective when bad things happened but not when good things happened.

Su Xun was extremely depressed. How could he end up in the same place with these two unlucky guys?

Zhuo Hua quickly spat a few times: "Don't blame me, don't blame me, we will definitely be able to get out, we definitely can."

Song Hui was speechless. It was impossible to expect someone who was stupid and someone who was brainless.

It depends on him.

Song Hui said in a deep voice: "Not necessarily, or is there another way?"

Su Xun and the other two immediately perked up and asked in unison, "What's the solution?"

"The flower the snake demon is guarding is no ordinary creature. Every time I observe it, I see a few cherry-sized fruits hanging from its branches. They used to be green, but now they've turned white. The flower has been blooming for so long, and yet the snake demons haven't moved. I suspect it's the fruit, not the flower, that the snake demon covets. Once the fruit ripens, if we swallow it, we might be able to transcend the tribulation and ascend to godhood on the spot. When the heavenly tribulation arrives, we'll have a glimmer of hope."

Their eyes lit up. It was exciting to snatch food from the snake's mouth.

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go and guard it too."

Song Hui pulled the man back: "It will take some time, no rush."

"What we need to do now is to develop a reliable plan to seize the fruits."
