The stone wall on the right suddenly shattered, smoke billowed out, and then quickly fell to the ground, revealing a small compartment.
Inside the cubicle, there was a ghostly figure, impaled by more than a dozen chains, hanging heavily from the stone wall...
"A military general?" the ghostly figure spoke.
Fang Zong saw that it was an old man's ghost. He couldn't see the figure clearly, but he could see that the face was covered with spider web-like wrinkles. Before he could take a closer look, he heard a scream.
He looked over, and Han Die quickly covered her mouth and whispered, "This is the old man who told me to leave when I was a child."
Fang Zong nodded, then swung his sword, unleashing a burst of energy that instantly severed more than a dozen chains.
The old man immediately fell down. As a ghost, he didn't even have the strength to float. He looked at Fang Zong and said helplessly, "Young man, if you don't mind, make a cut on the south stone wall. There are treasures inside for you, and there are also treasures to heal my injuries."
Fang Zong nodded and struck again.
Another piece of the stone wall broke off. Before the smoke had even cleared, Zhao Xian shouted, "I'll help!" and pulled Han Die closer.
"Idiot!" Fang Zong muttered under his breath.
"Greedy good-for-nothing!" Wu Yongci stomped his foot in anger.
At this moment, the smoke subsided, and a thick, bloody light shot out from within.
Before Zhao Xian even entered the broken cave wall, he screamed and dragged Han Die back.
He and Han Die felt a terrifying force pulling at their blood, causing their blood pressure to spike, making them dizzy and unsteady, until they came to a stop in place.
Zhao Xian was in better health and managed to walk back.
Han Die, a girl, although in good health, still lost her balance and fell to the ground.
She could only grab Zhao Xian's hand, as if she had grasped at the last straw!
"Help me!" Zhao Xian cried out to Fang Zong for help.
"Zhao Xian, save me..." Han Die instinctively thought of her newly-acquainted boyfriend.
Both of them felt as if blood was rushing to their scalps. The feeling of death overwhelmed them, and fear, terror, irritability, and countless negative emotions assaulted their hearts.
Zhao Xian took a few deep breaths, and just then, he saw Fang Zong walk past them, enter the cave wall, and disappear from sight.
Only he, Han Die, and Wu Yongci, who was standing there blankly, remained.
His expression began to contort, then turned ferocious. Under the fear of death, Zhao Xian's face grew increasingly grim, and the resentment in his eyes deepened.
At this moment, Fang Zong was also stunned.
Upon entering the cave, he saw a large, blood-red lake.
The lake wasn't large, only about ten meters in diameter, but it was filled with swirling, bloody 'blood'!
It does look like blood, but...
This isn't real blood!
"Legend has it that no beasts or birds dwell on Mount Qi because of a kind of Qishan blood milk that absorbs the life essence of the entire mountain. Blood lotuses grow within this blood milk, making it a treasure of vital energy..."
Fang Zong took out his phone, looked at the information on the martial arts website, and then looked at the three-petaled lotus growing in the blood-red lake.
He then swung his sword, and all sixteen blood lotuses flew up, their branches landing in his palm.
"Dingdang! Congratulations to the Summoner for obtaining a Blood Lotus of the First Ten Days +15, trash."
Upon hearing Ninth Sister's voice, Fang Zong laughed and said, "Alright, although it's not very useful to me, it's very useful to the Blood Fiend Sect. Last time, Blood Scorpion gave me a big gift, so I can use it to return the favor."
"Double kill! Congratulations, Summoner, you have obtained Serum Lotus +1!"
"What?" Fang Zong was completely dumbfounded.
He knew that the Blood Lotus of Ten Days was the lotus that grew in the blood and milk of Qishan, which was written on the Wujiang.com website.
But what exactly is *Serissa japonica*?
It's not on the Wujiang.com website!
As he was thinking, Ninth Sister laughed and said, "Sixteen Blood Milk Flowers bloom in Qishan. There is only one treasure called the Blood Lotus of Ten Days. But if the other fifteen Blood Lotuses are harvested more than fifteen times, the remaining one will be the Blood Lotus of Pure Blood..."
Congratulations, Summoner! Serum Lotus enhances the Flesh Regeneration spell, quality +1, rank +2!
"Gulp!" Fang Zong couldn't help but swallow.
He decisively picked out the Blood Lotus and found that it was no different from the Blood Lotus of the First Ten Days. They were exactly the same. If Ninth Sister hadn't reminded him, he wouldn't have been able to tell the difference.
The three-petaled lotus flower is only the size of a palm. I knead it a bit and then stuff it directly into my mouth.
The moment the serum lotus enters the mouth, its fragrance instantly fills the mouth and nasal cavity, impacting the nerves and reaching straight to the brain!
Fang Zong felt more energetic. His true yang energy surged slightly, and a bloody wound appeared on his arm. Before the blood could spurt out, it healed completely without leaving a trace of a scar!
Is this the quality of a demon, the third stage of flesh and blood regeneration?
Fang Zong gasped in fright, feeling that even if someone chopped off his back, he could be completely unharmed if they quickly pressed it back up!
This spell is insane!
The harvest was enormous, and Fang Zong was very satisfied.
Moreover, this is only the first harvest, not the entire harvest of this trip.
Fang Zong went out with a smile. When he saw the blood lotus in Fang Zong's hand, the old ghost's eyes turned green. He asked Fang Zong for it, but Fang Zong put it all away and didn't give him a single one.
He looked at Han Die and the other two, and his smile widened.
At this moment, Han Die nestled in Wu Yongci's arms, and Wu Yongci whispered words of comfort.
As for Han Die's fiancé, Zhao Xian, he stood at a distance, head down, hiding the anger in his eyes.
