Chapter 26 - Pretending To Be A Silent Expert (1/2)

One of them shouted loudly.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and did not look at Fang Yuan. His gaze was fixed on the other team.

“Junior, your teammate is already trapped in the blood lotus territory. If you meet any of our teams, you will definitely have no chance of winning. I advise you not to make a mistake and leave quickly!”

“You are afraid that he will reap the benefits of others, right?”

The other team chuckled and spoke to Fang Yuan instead.

“There is only one blood lotus. First come, first served.”

“Junior, why don’t you join my team? The three of us will take down the two of them. After that, the sect will split the rewards into three portions. We will definitely not let you suffer any losses. What do you say?”

While trying to persuade him to leave, the other side was trying to rope him in.

However, Fang Yuan didn’t agree to any of them and sat down calmly.

“Seniors, take your time to fight. I’ll wait for you to get the blood lotus before I take my friend away.”

The expressions of the two sides changed slightly.

“Then let’s rely on our own abilities!”

After discussing among themselves, the two teams decided to leave one person to guard against Fang Yuan while the other entered the so-called blood lotus domain and tried to pluck it.

A few Gu worms flew out and began to cast a shield around them as they slowly advanced.

Fang Yuan looked at the two people’s positions.

It was just as he had expected.

They stopped five meters away from the blood lotus.

The defensive abilities of ordinary Gu worms were useless against the blood lotus.

The blood mist spread out and easily passed through the shield.

By the time they realized this, it was already too late.

Both of them were stunned and started to talk to themselves.

“Oh no.”

The two people outside had a bad feeling, but they could do nothing about it. They looked at Fang Yuan who was sitting cross-legged on the ground. The three parties were facing each other, but no one moved.

Just as they wanted to observe for a while, the blood lotus’ bright red petals quietly blossomed, spreading out a layer of blood-colored ripples.

As the ripples spread out, they enveloped all of them, and the surrounding environment suddenly changed.

Fang Yuan slowly turned his head and began to observe the surroundings. He found that they were already in an ancient ruin.

Spiritual herbs and precious materials were everywhere.

Any one of them would be worth dozens of times more than the blood lotus.

What Fang Yuan was stepping on was a primeval stone that was half the size of a basketball court.

An illusion?

The two people on the side were shocked by the scene before them, and then they cried out wildly.

“It’s a relic! We’ve run into a grotto-heaven!”

As they spoke, they began to plunder the spiritual herbs and precious materials wantonly.

The people who had stepped into the blood lotus realm earlier seemed a little lost at first, and then they went into a frenzy.

Li Tongzhou also gradually woke up. When he saw the scene around him, he immediately looked constipated.

“Fuck, why did the place change?”

Fang Yuan only looked at them quietly.

He naturally knew about grotto-heavens.

This world was very big, and also very old.

Legend has it that in ancient times, there were powerful Gu masters who died in a battle somewhere.

They would often use their strong spirit essence to open up a space before they died, setting up restrictions so that outsiders would not notice anything strange.

As long as the fated person could break through the restrictions, they could obtain their inheritance.

All the Gu worms and resources would be inherited by the fated person.

If it was a Tribulation Stage Gu master, even after a fierce battle, and most their resources were exhausted, whatever was left behind was still enough for ordinary people to cultivate to the Synthesis or even Void Realm.

No wonder they were so crazy.

This was a great opportunity.

The blood lotus’ ability was indeed similar to a restriction before entering the grotto-heaven.

But Fang Yuan who had the True Sight Gu knew that this was just an illusion.

He did not say anything. As a golden light flashed in his eyes, under the True Sight skill, everything returned to its original form.

They were still at the peak of the Thousand Blade Valley, without any relics or so-called inheritances.

Fang Yuan’s lips curled up. He did not expect the new Gu worm to be so useful.

But his recovery did not mean that the others could walk out of the illusion.
