368 Blood Mosquitoes (1/2)

”Hehe, you're seeking death!”

Fang Yuan's eyes glistened as a streak of wind and thunder sword essence appeared, slicing the snake into half.

Wind and thunder were extremely quick! One slice was all it took to behead the snake, as blood started to spurt out.

As he stretched his hands out, the head of the snake landed on his head and was still squirming about.

”The Elemental Piercing Snake has extremely sharp fangs and poisonous venom!”

Beside him, Zhou Tian gave a friendly reminder.

”Thank you for your reminder!”

Fang Yuan placed his palms together and kept the snake's head in his sleeves before examining the surroundings.

The dream masters around were all powerful dream masters of the Realm Alliance. They could quickly gain their composure after the ambush, eradicated all the green snakes and started to account for their losses.

”Lord Xing Yunzi, we have 5 deaths. Among these 5 are 2 dream masters, Li Bai and Xia Ruo!”

Very quickly, they accounted for the deaths, and the news shocked Fang Yuan.

”Li Bai!”

Fang Yuan took a few steps forward. Indeed, there was the corpse of a young man with the wound of a fang on his forehead. He had an expression of willingness as his face appeared unnatural.

”Gather the corpses and bury them!”

Xing Yunzi did not even twitch his eyebrow.

These experienced dream masters were extremely acquainted with death and did not react too much to it.

This was especially so because Li Bai's backing had already died. Now that Li Bai himself had died here, the Li Family would surely go down, for they had no one else who would give power to the family. Therefore, they casually buried him and left everything behind.

There was a look of worry on Xing Yunzi's face, for his team had suffered such a loss as soon as they entered the mountains.

”Sigh... You, settle Li Bai's corpse. I will inform the rest...”

Seeing this, Zhou Tian sighed as he instructed a servant to clean up the mess.

Noticing the Fang Yuan had glanced over, Zhou Tian tried to explain. ”After all, I have a little friendship with his father, Li Qin. But that is all...”

What Zhou Tian meant was that he was not willing to become enemies with Fang Yuan.

”They are all dead. Why would I care? Brother Zhou, you're thinking too much!”

Fang Yuan smiled magnanimously.

After all, the Li Family depended on Li Qin and pinned their hopes on Li Bai. Although both of them were gone, the Li Family still had plenty of resources. Many people would still try to establish relations with the family. By then, Zhou Tian's unofficial relationship with the family would not aid him in any way. In fact, if the family wasn't careful, they would end up becoming weaker and weaker.

Therefore, he did not care about much and continued to chat with Zhou Tian.

”There used to be many treasures in 9 Extremes Mountain. By now, many dream masters have already explored it and the number of treasures that are usable is getting lesser and lesser. Therefore, the number of dream masters coming here to explore is also reducing... The two biggest dangers are the wild animals and the restriction on the mountain! With regards to the restriction, the alliance has already investigated and have found a way to bypass it by using a map and exploiting the weak points. However, the locations of the beasts are always changing, and that is the most troubling thing...”

Xing Yunzi calmly explained.

These beasts were not normal beasts. They were mutated beasts created by a powerful person! They harnessed many unique and special abilities. Coupled with the dangers in 9 Extremes Mountain, even a careless dream master might succumb to the dangers.

However, after this incident, the remaining dream masters were now more alert. They had no more encounters and finally, they had arrived at a lakeside.

”It's this region!”

Xing Yunzi held a round-looking magical equipment and started to confirm his suspicions. ”The node which my alliance is looking for his here! Once we locate the crypt, we will need to map its location. I'll have to trouble everyone to inspect every corner of this lake.”

With that, he started to give out similar-looking magical equipment to Fang Yuan and the few other dream masters in the 4th Tier of the Illusionary Divine stage. ”By having the few of us to lead the groups, we will eliminate the chances of encountering a danger. Pick a direction and start working!”

”It's this item!”

Fang Yuan examined the ancient coin in his hands.

The coin was circular in shape and was made from pure gold. It was used as a form of currency by normal people and gave off the vibe of royalty.

”This is royal money made into a magical equipment by infusing people dao dragon energy and pure gold. Therefore, it can sense objects beneath the ground...”

After benefitting from Sage Changli's inheritance, Fang Yuan's experience and knowledge was much more than the average dream master, and had an even greater understanding of this place compared to even Xing Yunzi.

”This node is recorded in Sage Changli's inheritance. However, this piece of inheritance is with me. It seems like the Realm Alliance has predicted this node from the location of the other nodes, and have yet to ascertain the exact location of the node!”

Fang Yuan's eyes glistened.

Xing Yunzi had deployed him to the East, which was where the node laid!

”Since I am fortunate enough, I shall explore it!”

With that, he led a group of servants and started his exploration.

Although there were many mutated beasts in 9 Extremes Mountain and many restrictions in place, the dream masters were in total control!

Along the lake, Fang Yuan and company had walked towards the East for a few miles. The fog from the surroundings started to thicken, restricting their visibility.

”Lord! There seems to be a restriction ahead!”

The other dream masters were only in the 3rd Tier of the Illusionary Divine stage. Therefore, Fang Yuan was the undisputed leader. One of the dream masters had a look of anticipation on his face.

”Let's take a look!”

Fang Yuan took a few steps forward and the fog started to disperse, revealing a messy stone array. Besides the array, there was nothing else but a large patch of empty space. There was a faint yellow glow in mid-air, which meant that there were restrictions in place here.

”There should be something sealed within here. However, it looks like someone has already taken it away!”

Another dream master took a step forward and his face was filled with regret.

”It's been taken away?”

Fang Yuan focused as a hint of gold flashed across in his eyes.

The other dream masters thought of nothing after seeing Fang Yuan execute his special ability. After all, dream masters would traverse to many worlds and would have seen many different types of weird techniques. This was obvious just a simple sight technique.
