Chapter 642 Blood Lotus (1/2)
After the Chief Elder's words, everyone straightened their back, ears perked up for any attacks.
It wasn't unusual to encounter any powerful creatures here. Moreover, there had also been rumors spreading of a red-haired monster lurking in the Life Forbidden Zone.
Darren himself had spotted a red figure while he was observing the picture presented by Elder Walt.
They probed the place with their spiritual senses for a long time, but they found nothing.
It was like the calm before the storm, and as each minute of silence passed, the more anxious they started to feel. It felt like someone was watching them from a distance.
”Let's keep going. According to the Jade Slip, we can step forward when we reach the land with hills,” the Chief Elder said. With that, he flew down into a deep hole. With a bounce, he rushed to the land with hills.
Darren and the others also followed, arriving to the land of the hills a second after the Chief Elder did.
”There's really nothing to be scared about.”
”Look! There's something red in the cliff!” an elder shouted, pointing to the direction where he spotted the red hue.
”It's the Holy Will Blood Lotus!” One look at it, the Chief Elder jumped in surprise, blurting out what he had just seen. With not a minute to waste, he flew towards the direction.
The rest of them followed.
As they got closer, Darren could now make out a red lotus the size of a millstone. It was sitting on the cliff, standing steadily against the wind.
The red lotus was made up of hundreds of small petals. Within each petal, one could make out tiny veins that stretched across the color—looking as if blood was flowing through one petal to the next.
”It smells so good.” Hobson took a deep breath.
”The Holy Will Blood Lotus is extremely valuable. Chief Elder, please extract it and break through to the Holy Realm at once.”
Ivan glanced at the blood lotus, envy pouring into his gaze. What he really wanted to do was to keep it to himself.
”Ignorant boy.” The Chief Elder glanced at him indifferently.
”Umm... Why did you say that, Chief Elder?” Elder Queena, who was standing beside the crowd, asked in confusion.
What was wrong with refining this precious treasure? Why was Ivan ignorant for suggesting it?
