Chapter 256

Guo Shier asked curiously, "That's strange. Why are they so polite when they're robbing?"

Yang Miluo said helplessly, "Brother, that's not robbing … Listen to what he has to say first."

Guo Shier laughed awkwardly. He had been waiting for others to rob him so that he could take it back. Yang Miluo's words made him realize that the other party really didn't want to rob him. He touched his nose and stopped talking.

Li Ran stepped forward and asked with a smile, "What's the matter?"

The middle-aged man said politely, "I'm a wandering professional, a seven-level altar professional. Yang Wuya, hehe, you guys seem to be wandering professionals too, right?" From the outside, Li Ran and the other three did look like wandering professionals. Professionals from ancient families usually traveled in groups, so it was impossible for there to be only four of them.

Li Ran didn't bother to explain and said with a smile, "Yes, we're all wandering professionals. My name is Li Ran. What can I do for you?" He once again ignored his profession level. According to Guo Shier, his altar, other than being used as a deterrent, would not affect his performance. In addition, this guy deliberately kept a low profile, so it was really difficult for others to distinguish his profession level.

Yang Wuya said, "Brother Li Ran, you know that the deeper you go into the Big Abyss, the more dangerous it is. Hehe, we wandering professionals … are alone, so … we plan to gather and enter together. This way, we can take care of each other. I wonder if you want to join us?"

Li Ran hesitated for a moment and said, "Are you all wandering professionals?"

Yang Wuya said, "Yes, many people have come here but don't dare to go further. The mutated beasts are getting stronger and stronger. It's very difficult to go further with just a few professionals." He sounded very sincere. In fact, he didn't expect that it would be Li Ran who came out to talk. His attention was on Fan Zhentong, who was a genuine seven-level altar professional. Professionals of this level could go anywhere in this world.

Li Ran turned back and said, "Shier, should we join?"

Guo Shier said straightforwardly, "No!" He wanted to wait for others to come and rob them. With such a large group of people moving together, who would dare to rob them? After all, robbing was much better than collecting by oneself.

Li Ran almost immediately understood what he meant. He spread his hands and said, "My brother isn't willing. You guys continue to look for other wandering professionals."

Yang Wuya's eyes showed disappointment, but he didn't stop them. "Okay, I won't force you. Hehe, take care."

Li Ran and the others immediately had a good impression of Yang Wuya. This person was not bad. Li Ran nodded and said, "Let's go." The four of them flew into the distance.

A professional said, "These guys really think they can barge into the Big Abyss by themselves. Hmph, they won't even know how they died!"

Another Professionist spoke up: "Perhaps they thought that with two 6-layered altars and one 7-layered altar, they would be able to defeat those mutated beasts and the Professionists of the ancient clans with ill intentions"

Yang Wuya said, "Don't say anymore. Even if we can't rope them in, we can at least leave a good impression if we meet them in the future. They are all wandering professionals, so they might be used to traveling alone."

Another seven-level altar professional said, "It's a pity that they also have a seven-level altar professional. If they join us, we will have three seven-level altars, enough to protect ourselves."

Yang Wuya shook his head with a bitter smile. He really wanted to keep Fan Zhentong, but he didn't know that in this small group, the truly powerful one wasn't Fan Zhentong, but Li Ran who was talking to him.

Li Ran's group of four flew for a while. Yang Miluo couldn't help but ask, "Shier, why don't we join? With so many professionals, whether it's hunting or guarding against the other ancient families' professionals, it will be very beneficial. "

Guo Shier laughed. "Yes, there is strength in numbers, but do we lack strength?" Yang Miluo was stunned. He said, "Yes, we don't lack strength. Haha, I was thinking the wrong way."

Li Ran laughed. "You're not thinking the wrong way. I understand Shier's intention. He just wants to snatch more, haha, people will covet more when there are fewer people, but when there are more … who would dare to mess with us?"

Guo Shier gave him a thumbs up. "As expected of big brother, I like you."

Li Ran couldn't help but laugh. "You're getting more and more wretched …"

Guo Shier added, "Learn from big brother."

Li Ran was instantly choked speechless. Yang Miluo and Fan Zhentong couldn't help but laugh. These two were the same kind of people.

Fan Zhentong looked around and said, "The terrain here is even steeper … it's all snowy mountains."

This place was different from when they first entered the Big Abyss. The terrain was obviously higher. According to Guo Shier's knowledge from his previous life, this should be considered a plateau. There were large glaciers and huge mountains that towered into the clouds. The mountains here were much higher than the highest mountains that Guo Shier had seen in his previous life. He remembered that the highest mountain in his previous life was not more than 10,000 meters, and the 10,000-meter-high mountains here were just small hills.

Mountains that were more than 100,000 meters high were everywhere. The most frightening thing was that the geology here was unstable. There were frequent violent earthquakes, avalanches, mudslides, and boulders falling from the mountains. Even though they were professionals, they had to avoid them.

Li Ran said, "This road … hehe, there's no road left. We can only fly, and we can't fly too high. The hurricanes up there are enough to knock professionals down."

Guo Shier listened attentively. The wind whistled high in the sky, shaking his soul. He knew that Li Ran was right. Li Ran was probably the only one who could fly up to this mountain. Guo Shier's strength was not enough, so he might not be able to stabilize the altar even if he flew up there.

Those who could enter this place were people and beasts with strength. If the mutated beasts were not above Level 10, they would be dead for sure. Even Level 11 or Level 12 mutated beasts had to be careful. Professionals had to have at least a five-tiered altar, or it would be difficult to survive.

As they spoke, a whistling sound of thunder came. Guo Shier looked up and saw countless boulders falling from the mountains, mixed with snow and fog. Along with the trembling sound, it immediately caused a chain reaction in the surrounding mountains. Even the place where Guo Shier and the others were hovering in the air was affected.

Guo Shier dodged in panic. Looking at the boulders whizzing past him, cold sweat appeared on his forehead. If this thing were to hit him, his altar would probably crack. He said, "Oh no, why is the terrain so terrifying?"

Li Ran laughed. "Be careful. If you get smashed to death, that would be a waste."

Guo Shier said, "I really don't know what's in front of us. Although this continent is rich in resources, it's too dangerous. I reckon that the ancient families that entered this time will be lucky if a few experts don't die."

Fan Zhentong suddenly pointed not far away and said anxiously, "Look, look … What's that?"

A trace of red light flashed in the corner of Guo Shier's eyes. He quickly turned his head. It was a huge red boulder. It was very conspicuous in the white snow and fog. It drew a red line in the air and fell to the foot of the mountain. He said in surprise, "Red boulder?"

Li Ran narrowed his eyes and said, "Not only red boulders, there are also yellow ones …"

Then the four of them saw yellow boulders, green boulders, dark brown boulders, and boulders as blue as the sky. It was as if a handful of colorful stones had been thrown down from the sky. It was really a riot of colors. Guo Shier was dazzled. He exclaimed, "There's such a kind of stone … Uh, why do I feel that it's some kind of material?"

When A Handsome Old Man heard the word "material", he leaned out of the altar and said, "Where is it? Where is it? Eh … "He had already seen the falling boulders.

Li Ran said, "Let's wait for it to calm down. Then we'll go over."

After waiting for a full half an hour, the surroundings finally calmed down. Li Ran smiled and said, "Let's go! I'm also very curious. "He directly teleported over. Guo Shier and the others also teleported over.

When they arrived at the place where the colorful stone had fallen, the ground was a mess. It was covered with a thick layer of snow. Countless huge trees had fallen in a crisscross pattern. Broken treetops poked out of the snow. There were many boulders in the middle of the snow. Li Ran stood beside a huge boulder.

Guo Shier said, "What a huge boulder. This is that red boulder. Uh, is it jade?"

Wisps of hot air rose from the crimson rocks.

This rock looked like a piece of red jade. It was as big as a small mountain, at least a hundred meters tall and two hundred meters wide. It was no smaller than a building.

A trace of happiness appeared on Li Ran's face. He said, "Scarlet Fire Jade. Hehe, our luck is too good."

Guo Shier sat on the altar. His knowledge was inferior to Li Ran's, but he had inherited a lot of materials. After flipping through his inherited memories, he knew what the scarlet fire jade was. A Handsome Old Man also recognized it. He said, "Yes, it's scarlet fire jade. Then the other colors I saw just now … must be blue crystal jade, bright yellow jade, and green leaf jade."

Li Ran said, "I only need a part of it. Let's split it."

A Handsome Old Man secretly said to Guo Shier, "This kind of jade isn't very useful to others, but it's very useful to you. Try to collect as much as possible. It's good for upgrading the Heaven Altar. I have a way to purify it, so don't let go of the fragments."

Although the scarlet fire jade could be forcibly collected, there were four people present. Therefore, Li Ran was in charge of breaking it. With his strength, breaking this huge jade was a piece of cake. In just one strike, the scarlet fire jade was completely broken. The four of them picked it up. Li Ran only took a small part. He didn't need much.

Yang Miluo and Fan Zhentong didn't take much either. After all, the space to store talismans was limited. There were too many things that needed to be stored. Guo Shier seemed to be picking up trash. He said, "If you don't want it … I'll take it all."

Li Ran waved his hand and said, "Although this thing is rare, its uses … Oh, I forgot. You constructed the Heaven Altar, so it has many uses."

Only now did Yang Miluo and Fan Zhentong know that Guo Shier actually dared to construct the Heaven Altar, and even reached the level of a six-layered altar. It was simply inconceivable.

The two of them didn't say anything. In any case, with the abnormal Li Ran here, Guo Shier didn't seem that abnormal.

Guo Shier kept collecting, while A Handsome Old Man began to purify it in the Hidden Talisman Space. In the end, he simply let Guo Shier take the lead and directly used the cabernet to purify it outside.

The cabernet's sacrificial treasure was very powerful. It could break down anything. The countless threads wrapped around it and refined everything.

Li Ran took a look and said with a smile, "This sacrificial treasure is really not bad."

Yang Miluo looked at the cabernet's sacrificial treasure suspiciously. He said, "What sacrificial treasure is this? I remember in my family's inheritance, there was a powerful sacrificial treasure called cabernet. It can break down anything. This sacrificial treasure … is really similar. "

Guo Shier smiled inwardly. His sacrificial treasure was inherited from the ancient Miluo family. Although it didn't have any attack power, it was a sacrificial treasure that he used the most.

After the scarlet fire jade was broken down, it was condensed into pieces of jade the size of a city brick. They were pure and transparent, glowing with red light and emitting a faint heat. This was the material jade that had not been blessed with talismans and was only purified.

Blue crystal jade, bright yellow jade, and leaf green jade were quickly found. They also found black stream jade, golden silk jade, and so on. Among them, the scarlet fire jade was the most, followed by blue crystal jade, bright yellow jade, and so on.

After a long time, they finally collected everything. Guo Shier was still not satisfied. He said, "It's still not enough." He raised his head and saw that the jade had slid down from the peak of the mountain, so there must be raw jade ore up there.

Li Ran said with a smile, "Don't go up. This mountain is more than a hundred thousand meters tall. If you fly halfway up the mountain … you won't be able to stabilize the altar."

Guo Shier said with a cheeky smile, "Brother Li Ran, help me!"

Li Ran scolded him with a smile, "You brat, you want me to go up?"

Guo Shier said, "No, you have to attack. Hehe, your attack is more powerful, you should be able to break down some of them."

Yang Miluo and Fan Zhentong retreated together. What a joke. Once Li Ran launched an attack, who knew how many boulders would fall from the sky. It was not a good idea to stay here.

Guo Shier laughed and retreated with Yang Miluo. Of course, he also knew the danger.

Li Ran shook his head. Seeing that the three of them had retreated far enough, he immediately teleported to the sky. As expected, there was a strong wind in the sky. With his strength, he could still continue to rise. In just a short moment, he saw the collapsed mineral vein. After a casual attack, he immediately teleported away.

Boom!

With Li Ran's strength, although it was a casual attack, the power was great. It was not something that Guo Shier and the others could compare with. In an instant, the entire mineral vein exploded.

Rumbling thunder sounded. After the snow on the mountain was shaken, it started to collapse.

Roar!

In a huge cave halfway up the mountain, a huge head popped out and stared at the bottom of the mountain.

Guo Shier said, "What is this?"
