Hua Shi'an stared at the pool of blood on the ground, his brow furrowing slightly. Wait! His blood? Thinking of Gu Qingfeng's strange behavior a while ago, he finally understood! Hua Shi'an exuded a terrifying chill, causing Zhong Zhou, who was standing beside him, to shiver!
"Master?" Zhong Zhou called out to Hua Shi'an in confusion.
The moment Hua Shi'an looked up, his eyes flashed with boundless killing intent, "Gu Qingfeng! It's Gu Qingfeng! Damn it!"
"What do you mean?" Zhong Zhou didn't quite understand what Hua Shi'an was saying.
"Zhong Zhou, do you remember when Gu Qingfeng came to my residence a while ago and ended up fighting with me?"
"I remember, Master was ambushed and injured by him! Could it be?!" Zhong Zhou stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
"That's right, it was him who ambushed me and successfully took my blood!" Hua Shi'an said viciously, wishing he could grab Gu Qingfeng and tear him to pieces!
That damned Gu Qingfeng dared to conspire with outsiders to scheme against him, and he couldn't kill him—that was what angered him the most! But even if he couldn't kill him, he would still capture him and torture him severely!
"Damn it, we just handed over the divine artifact for nothing!" It was a case of trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead, and Hua Shi'an was so angry that his heart was aching!
Zhong Zhou's eyes darted around quickly, and he suddenly had an idea. "Master, since Ji Jiuying has already contracted the divine artifact, and we can't take it from her now, we can..." Zhong Zhou leaned down and whispered.
Hua Shi'an's expression flickered slightly. Since he couldn't have it, no one else should get it easily either. "Do as you say! Remember to investigate Gu Qingfeng's whereabouts as well!"
······
Time flies when you're cultivating. Early in the morning, Ji Jiuying stretched after leaving her space and saw Qingling, Wen Chuyu, and their group waiting for her at the door! It made her feel quite embarrassed!
"Why are you all here so early!" Ji Jiuying asked.
"Little Jiu, it's still early? The sun's already high in the sky, everyone else has already gone into the cultivation tower!"
Ji Jiuying was stunned for a moment. So early? In the end, she was dragged and run by Wen Longting and Qingling to the front of the cultivation tower. Sure enough, those people had already gone in one after another!
"The goddess is here!" someone in the crowd shouted, and instantly all eyes turned to Ji Jiuying!
"Go, goddess!"
"Goddess, please be careful!"
"······"
"Xiao Jiu's charm is just too great!" Wen Longxiu teased.
Ji Jiuying's lips twitched slightly, and then she said.
Let's go in as soon as possible!
The group of people lined up one after another, and it wasn't long before it was their turn!
"Although the things inside are all fake, the harm is real! You all need to be careful, understand?" Wen Chuyu instructed.
After responding, the group handed their tokens to the steward for registration and entered the gate one after another. After a dazzling light, the group that had been together separated! What came into view was an unfamiliar place.
The scenes that everyone enters are different; some are deserts, some are oases, some are valleys, and so on!
What came into Ji Jiuying's view was a continuous valley. She held the darkness tightly in her hand and warily surveyed her surroundings.
The surroundings were eerily quiet. Suddenly, Ji Jiuying felt as if many eyes were staring at her. A sound came from the valley ahead, and hundreds of level-four limestone wolves appeared in Ji Jiuying's sight. Hundreds of pairs of eyes, glowing with a bluish light, stared intently at Ji Jiuying, their fangs gleaming coldly in the sunlight!
Awoo!
Awoo!
The roar echoed through the valley, sending chills down one's spine and making one's heart tremble. However, Ji Jiuying's expression remained calm throughout, which angered the lime wolf!
Before long, hundreds of limestone wolves surrounded Ji Jiuying. With a command from the leader, the wolves pounced on her. Ji Jiuying smiled slightly and waved her Night Blade.
Gradually, more and more lime wolf corpses appeared on the ground, and the lime wolves that died on the ground were basically killed by a single blow!
Qingling appeared on a glacier, a scene that reminded her of the snow-capped mountains of the Arctic Capital. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew up, stirring up a cloud of snow that blocked her view.
Qingling immediately became alert, gripping the Qinglian Qin tightly! A gust of wind swept in from behind, and Qingling quickly leaped up, plucking the strings, the music transforming into countless sharp blades that struck the wind and snow.
A muffled groan was heard as the snow fox fell to the ground, its blood staining patches of snow red. But behind it, dozens more snow foxes attacked her.
"Master, let me out!" The voice of the Purple Lightning Leopard echoed in her mind, but Qingling shook her head.
"Xiao Zi, I can't rely on others for everything. I can do it!"
Seeing this, the Purple Lightning Leopard fell silent and quietly protected her!
She plucked the strings of her instrument lightly and quickly, her forehead beaded with sweat. The music gradually softened, and the snow fox's steps slowed as well, its fierce light turning vacant.
Seeing this, Qingling hardened her heart, and the originally gentle and melodious music instantly turned into a sharp blade. Before the snow fox could react, it fell to the ground and did not move. The sandstorm also stopped, and a large area of the snow was dyed red, which was shocking.
Qingling took out the Rejuvenation Pill that Ji Jiuying had given her and swallowed it. Before she could react, she felt dizzy, and the snow-capped mountain disappeared instantly, replaced by a desolate wilderness.
Wen Longting sat on the ground, breathing heavily. There was a dead Level 4 Earth Flame Serpent on the ground. Fortunately, she had hunted many spirit serpents in the Boundless Mountains before and knew how to kill a snake quickly when facing it!
She was exhausted, hot, and thirsty. She wanted to roar, "Why was I teleported to a volcano?!" Just as she was about to explode, a clap of thunder startled her awake!
"Holy crap! The volcano has erupted!"
Ignoring her exhaustion, Wen Longting hurriedly got up and ran, but how could she outrun the speed of the rolling lava! Just as the lava was about to arrive, a wave of dizziness struck, and the surrounding volcano disappeared, replaced by a forest. Wen Longting breathed a sigh of relief; this cultivation tower was all about the thrill of the chase!
However, just as she was about to sit down to rest, a dense rustling sound all around her sent chills down her spine! Looking around, Wen Longting almost fainted!
It was pitch black, filled with poisonous spiders!
Wen Longxiu and Shen Miaoqing were in no better shape. Wen Longxiu had already reached the third level, and at this point, she was on the verge of death. The poisonous vines had bound her, rendering her unable to move. Before she could even take out an antidote, she had already fallen into a coma after the poison entered her body!
In a daze, she became disoriented. With her strong will, she used her remaining spiritual power to take out the antidote pill, put it in her mouth, and waited for her physical strength and spiritual power to recover. When she felt that she had recovered enough, she condensed a ball of fire and burned the vines to break them, thus freeing herself!
