Everlasting Chapter 105: Great Hurricane (2/2)
”He he, I simply read about it before from a book,” replied Chen Feng with a smile. At that moment, Chen Feng's instincts was telling him that this person was quite a dangerous fellow. As he could not utilize the Longevity Tower for the moment, he would have to be careful. Thankfully, he possessed a Prized artefact on his person. That gave him some courage. Additionally, there was his Soulflame. With a sneak attack, he could crash the other fellow's divine sense and reduce him into an idiot.
”There are three black flowers there!” a cultivator suddenly shouted while pointing up front.
Three black-coloured flowers, each the size of a palm, grew along the edge of a muddy area. Black as ink, they exuded a corrosive aura.
”Those are Soulbiting Flowers. They can be used to concoct medicinal pills and the forging of magic treasures. If a Concealed stage cultivator breathes it in, their soul power will be stained and corroded, causing damage to the soul. A heavy strike can lead to death,” said someone knowledgeable about the flower.
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
Two cultivators suddenly flew out, wanting to grab the three Soulbiting Flowers.
In the marketplace, each of the three Soulbiting Flowers could fetch a price of several thousand Basic Yang Pills. That was enough for a level 1 Concealed stage cultivator to practice cultivation for several months. Additionally, that was much more effective compared to absorbing worldly spiritual energy. It was no wonder that those two cultivators would immediately choose to take action.
Chen Feng did not take action. He had no interest in those flowers. The Magic crystals on him was at a number that he could never finish. Naturally, he would not embarra.s.s himself by trying to s.n.a.t.c.h those flowers. Furthermore, Chen Feng had sensed a trace of fluctuation coming from the muddy spot ahead. The aura there was very weak and thus, very difficult for those without Soulflames to detect.
Those two are probably in danger. Chen Feng thought to himself. He did not attempt to warn them. They were not acquainted after all. Additionally, they might become rivals later on. Thus, there was no need for him to stand out right now.
”Got it!”
The two of them stretched their hands out to grab the three Soulbiting Flowers at the same time. Seeing the flowers on the verge of falling into their hands, they reflexively smiled.
Sou! Sou!
Suddenly, two red beams shot out from within the mud to wrap around the two cultivators. With a tug, the two cultivators were then pulled down the mud. After that, the mud there sloshed about a few times before returning to a state of calmness.
Chen Feng was highly shocked. He had managed to get a clear view of what the two red beams actually looked like. They were two tongues, coated with spikes and disgusting pustules.
That should be Mud Lizards. Chen Feng thought to himself.
Seeing the two cultivators suddenly disappearing, the other cultivators fell into a slight uproar. Some of them pulled out their swords as they get ready to attack.
”That earlier are Mud Lizards. This is their territory. Everyone, don't attack recklessly. Our objective this time is not to kill yao beasts,” one of the cultivators spoke up.
”Look! Someone else is heading forward!” someone suddenly shouted while pointing into the sky.
Raising his head, Chen Feng saw two cultivators in defensive magic clothing flying through the sky. When the violent vile astral winds struck them, the winds were instead shattered apart. The winds had failed to slow the two figures down in the slightest.
”Those two have condensed out Soulflames, at the very least. The defensive magic clothing they are wearing are likely high-grade Magic artefacts as well.” Chen Feng speculated silently.
”Those two are the two Grotto Masters from the Seventy-two Grotto-mansions. The defensive magic clothing they wore could easily block off the vile astral winds. At the very least, they must be grade 7 Magic artefacts. If only I have one, there would have been no need for me to struggle on foot,” said a level 4 Concealed stage cultivator, a look of envy on his face.
”Argh! Sword Tower and Jade Talisman Court are killing people! I saw a Prized artefact. It really is a Prized artefact! What a pity! The cultivators from Sword Tower have s.n.a.t.c.hed it away!” A distant voice suddenly spread out from up ahead. It sounded miserable to the extreme, a sound capable of giving others goose b.u.mps.
It's Lu Ta. Chen Feng's heart gave a thump and he secretly smiled.
”What? Prized artefact! Hurry! Hurry!” Hearing the words Prized artefact, the eyes of everyone there turned red. That included the level 5 Concealed stage cultivator. One by one, they sped up.
”Oh! There is another Prized artefact! This is a pill furnace! Not good, the cultivators from Jade Talisman Court are s.n.a.t.c.hing it away! Argh! You beasts! After s.n.a.t.c.hing away other people's treasure, you want to kill me? I will fight you to the bitter end!” Another distant voice spread through the astral winds to reach them.
That is Ye Ziming. Unexpectedly, the two of them are faster than me. Chen Feng secretly smiled.
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
Suddenly, three cultivators sped through the sky above. Sword light radiated off their bodies, defending them against any harm the astral winds might inflict upon them. Surprisingly, they were high-level sword cultivators. It would appear that they too, had been lured over by the shout earlier.
”All right, the place is turning chaotic. It is time to meet up with Ye Ziming and Lu Ta.” Having made up his mind, Chen Feng sped up. Slowly, he put more distance between himself and the others as he moved towards the spot where the voice had come from.
