The existence of the brand isolated the scents, causing Su Yu to be transported to the garden alone and unable to meet up with the others.
In a situation where the disciples of the other factions could meet up, Su Yu was alone, and the probability of him being targeted was greatly increased!
Although he was angry, Su Yu would not show it in front of outsiders.
"Will your eldest senior brother's flying bird be sold?" Su Yu asked.
Shayin smiled faintly. "Since Junior Brother Su is a disciple of the Supreme Heavenly Demon Sect, I'm sure Eldest Senior Brother will be willing to give him some face. He has a few wooden birds that haven't recognized their owners yet."
"Alright, take me to see your eldest senior brother," Su Yu said.
The three of them immediately flew into the sky.
The garden was boundless, and they ran into many unfamiliar challengers along the way. However, when they spotted Su Yu and the others from afar, they hurriedly avoided them.
Of course, they also discovered many corpses along the way.
"The battle has already begun." Shayin sighed and said, "We have to meet up with Eldest Senior Brother as soon as possible. Otherwise, with just the three of us, it won't be much of a problem if we encounter a lone challenger. But if we encounter a force that has already assembled, it'll be troublesome."
"As long as we meet up with Eldest Senior Brother, we'll be safe. Eldest Senior Brother carries a puppet that's comparable to the first stage of the All Creations Realm. Once it's activated, it's almost invincible. Eldest Senior Brother himself is also a top-notch ninth-grade Almighty existence, and he can roam the Heaven's Craftsmen Domain."
At the mention of Eldest Senior Brother, both Shayin and Ding Ping were full of respect.
Half a day later, Shayin gazed into the distance at a hill that was blooming with colorful flowers. She exhaled softly. "We're finally here. I can sense the breath of Eldest Senior Brother and a dozen other Senior Brothers. They're in the belly of the hill."
Ding Ping also said, "I sensed it too. We're finally safe now."
Su Yu was the only one who gradually stopped. His eyes shone brightly as he stared at the hill in front of him.
"Junior Brother Su, what's wrong with you?" Shayin sensed Su Yu's unusual behavior and turned around to ask.
Su Yu crossed his arms in front of his chest and said calmly, "Your eldest senior brother might be in some trouble."
Shayin was puzzled. She exchanged a glance with Ding Ping and flew over first, landing at the foot of the hill.
At that moment, several hidden figures appeared. "Stop! Ah, Senior Brother Ding and Senior Sister Sha! "
Joy and excitement overflowed from his voice.
"Wei Zhuang, Zhang Li, what's going on with the injuries on your bodies?" Ding Ping couldn't help but be shocked when he discovered that both of them had injuries of varying degrees.
Wei Zhuang's face was covered in blood, and there was an obvious wound on his abdomen. As for Zhang Li, he had lost an arm!
The strange thing was that there were crystallized fragments in their bodies, including the places where they were injured!
Zhang Li covered his bleeding arm with a pained expression. "We're in trouble!"
Shayin couldn't help but turn her head to look in Su Yu's direction. She was secretly shocked. Could it be that he had cultivated some kind of ocular power that allowed him to see through the hills in advance and discover that her senior brothers were in trouble?
"When we were waiting for everyone to gather here, we were attacked. Eight of our Junior Brothers and Sisters were killed, and eighteen were injured. Even our Eldest Brother was severely injured and is currently recuperating," said Wei Zhuang.
After listening, Shayin's expression changed slightly. "Eldest Senior Brother was also seriously injured? The newcomers must be extremely powerful. Did you manage to annihilate them? "
Wei Zhuang shook his head. "No, the other party is completely unharmed!"
Upon hearing that, Ding Ping's expression turned grave instantly. "If the other party is so powerful, why are you still recuperating at the place where the fight took place?"
Once the other party returned, wouldn't they be even more seriously injured?
Wei Zhuang said, "It's not that we didn't want to leave, but our Eldest Senior Brother couldn't move his body! He was trapped in the cave by the other party! "
Upon hearing that, Shayin was shocked. Eldest Senior Brother was completely trapped?
"What kind of force is the other party? How many people are there? "Shayin asked.
Wei Zhuang hesitated for a moment and said, "Only one person, but I don't know which force he is from."
"One person?" Shayin and Ding Ping were both shocked.
One person killed eight challengers of the Heaven's Craftsmen Faction and injured eighteen others. Their Eldest Senior Brother was seriously injured and trapped by the other party!
"Did our Eldest Senior Brother use that puppet?" Shayin asked with a gleam in her eyes.
Wei Zhuang said, "It was shattered by the other party!"
Hiss!
Upon hearing that, they couldn't help but gasp. The All Creations Stage One puppet was shattered by the other party!
Then, who on earth was the strong man?
"Let's go in and see our Eldest Senior Brother," Shayin said hurriedly.
The two of them flew into the depths of the cave. The scene in front of them shocked them again.
They saw the eighteen Senior Brothers and Sisters were all healing on the spot. Their injuries were more serious than Wei Zhuang and Zhang Li's, and there were also signs of crystallization in their wounds.
In the deepest part of the cave, there was a crystallized figure with an ordinary appearance and a resolute expression. At this moment, he was gritting his teeth and trying to dissolve something.
There was a bowl-sized bloody hole in his chest, from which blood essence kept flowing out.
His whole body was covered with crystal chips!!
"Eldest Senior Brother!" Ding Ping's expression changed dramatically, and he hurried over.
"Don't come over!" Suddenly, the Eldest Senior Brother shouted in a deep voice.
Ding Ping had already rushed over, and he was only two steps away from the Eldest Senior Brother.
At this moment, a crystal chip on the Eldest Senior Brother's body suddenly shot out and bombarded Ding Ping.
Puff!
Ding Ping only had time to use his sword to block, but the sharp bronze sword in his hand was bounced off. Then, the crystal chip penetrated Ding Ping's chest like a piece of paper.
Ding Ping flew backward, and an arrow of blood spurted out of his mouth. Among the blood, there were crystal chips floating.
Bang!
With a heavy bombardment, Ding Ping fell to the ground, his face full of pain.
"Senior Brother Ding!" Shayin was shocked. She immediately went forward to help him, but was stopped by the Crystallized Eldest Senior Brother. "Don't touch him!"
Shayin's palm stopped abruptly, and she asked anxiously, "Senior Brother, what's going on with these crystals?"
The Eldest Senior Brother said in a deep voice, "The crystals you see are actually plants that reproduce extremely quickly. They're called the Grass of Crystallization, and they feed on the blood of living creatures. Once they come into contact with blood, they will reproduce rapidly. Therefore, don't touch injured people. The Grass of Crystallization can spread at any time."
"The Grass of Crystallization?" Shayin was shocked. "Isn't this a spirit herb that has disappeared since time immemorial? How can it still exist now? "
The Eldest Senior Brother said in a deep voice, "It's just that it hasn't appeared since time immemorial, but it's not extinct. An ancient family in the Easternmost Land has always controlled it."
Upon hearing this, Ding Ping and Shayin both cried out in surprise. "Senior Brother, are you talking about the Great Oriental Family?"
The Great Oriental Family was a huge family that had produced two prefecture's kings, and it controlled the entire Great Eastern Land.
The Great Oriental Family's name alone was enough to intimidate all heroes.
"How did you encounter the experts of the Great Oriental Family?" Ding Ping swallowed his saliva and suddenly felt that it made sense. If it were the experts of the Great Oriental Family, it would be normal for the Eldest Senior Brother and the others to be defeated.
The Eldest Senior Brother said angrily, "Who knows what's wrong with that woman? She attacked us all of a sudden!"
"Since you're here, protect us. In half a month's time, we'll be able to dissolve the Grass of Crystallization in our bodies," the Eldest Senior Brother said, changing the subject.
Shayin nodded and thought for a while. "Senior Brother, I've brought an expert with me. He might be able to help us."
The eyes of the Eldest Senior Brother and the other 18 brothers lit up. "Could it be that Yu Liang has returned?"
Yu Liang was the expert who ranked second in the Heaven's Craftsmen Faction. His strength was only below the Eldest Senior Brother.
Shayin said, "We didn't encounter Senior Brother Yu, but a disciple of the Supreme Heavenly Demon Faction!"
Everyone's expression changed drastically. One of the disciples with high cultivation even looked angry. "Shayin, you're muddle-headed! Which disciple of the Supreme Heavenly Demon Faction isn't a bloodthirsty character? Once they know that we're severely injured, how could they let us go? You, you've invited a wolf into the house! "
Shayin felt wronged and said, "This person has saved Ding Ping and my lives. Judging from his attack, he's not a bloodthirsty person. Besides, I've only brought him here to make a deal with you, Senior Brother, to purchase the wooden bird."
"You can't believe a single word spoken by that bunch of demons!"
"Indeed, the people of the Supreme Heavenly Demon Faction are cunning by nature. Don't fall for their tricks."
Everyone spoke one after another, all of them blaming and grumbling.
Right at that moment, a leisurely voice drifted into the cavern. "If I wanted to kill you, would I have waited until now?"
Everyone present was shocked. "Be careful, everyone!"
Swish! Swish!
Swish! The 18 Senior Brothers stood up at the same time, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Under the faint sunlight, the silver-faced, white-haired Su Yu entered with his hands clasped behind his back.
The fact that he was able to enter so easily meant that the two guards at the door had been taken care of.
"How dare you barge into the territory of our Heaven's Craftsmen Faction!" an eighth-grade Almighty female disciple berated.
Su Yu said, "If you have the strength to show off, you might as well recuperate from your injuries."
"You're courting death!" the female disciple yelled. "Senior Brothers, let's attack together!"
They couldn't see through Su Yu's cultivation, but their intuition from years of training told them that Su Yu's cultivation wasn't strong.
The three disciples, whose injuries were considered stable, suddenly attacked from three directions at the same time.
Shayin wanted to stop them, but it was too late.
Su Yu's eyes turned cold. The demonic energy in his chest rolled, and five demonic dragons roared out.
Several screams of agony could be heard, including the eighth-grade Almighty female disciple. She spat out blood and flew backward, her injuries more than doubled.
This undoubtedly infuriated the rest of the disciples.
"How dare you hurt the people of our Heaven's Craftsmen Faction! Let's attack together! "
The remaining dozen strong men were about to fly into a rage.
All of a sudden, the crystallized eldest senior brother said, "Stop!"
He was very authoritative. The furious disciples stopped and looked at the eldest senior brother.
"Stop, all of you. He's right. If he wanted to kill you, you'd all be dead by now, including you, Leng Zhu." The eldest senior brother looked at the eighth-grade Almighty woman.
In the Heaven's Craftsmen Faction, Leng Zhu ranked third, second only to Yu Liang, who had yet to return.
"Him?" Many of the disciples were secretly surprised. They had never doubted the eldest senior brother's judgment.
Separated by the crystal, the eldest senior brother said in a low voice, "Seems like you're really here to make a deal. You want my wooden bird?"
Su Yu nodded.
"We can make a deal, but what do you have in exchange?" The eldest senior brother said, "The items made by the Heaven's Craftsmen Faction involve the level of late-stage Almighty, and none of them will be leaked. Once we do that, we'll most likely be punished by the faction's strict rules. If we're lucky, we'll reflect on our mistakes. If we're unlucky, our cultivations will be destroyed as a warning to others. I won't be an exception."
Su Yu glanced at Shayin. She hadn't mentioned this before.
Shayin averted her eyes and defended herself, "Junior Brother Su, I mean no harm."
Of course, she didn't dare to mean any harm, but she didn't have good intentions either.
She was probably using the name of the Supreme Heavenly Demon Faction to ensure her safety along the way and meet up with the eldest senior brother.
Su Yu looked at the eldest senior brother and said, "Because you're all dying, and I can save you, you'll agree."
"You're being too serious. The Grass of Crystallization isn't something that can't be resolved," the eldest senior brother said expressionlessly.
Su Yu sneered. "You can resolve the Grass of Crystallization, but can you resolve the challengers outside as well?"
How could the challengers in the surroundings not have noticed the great battle taking place here?
In the first one or two days, perhaps no one would dare to take the risk due to the prestige of the Heaven's Craftsmen Faction.
But as time went on, the situation inside the cave would be more or less deduced. Even if a group of rabble came, they would be in grave danger.
The eldest senior brother's pupils constricted. This was what worried him the most.
The Grass of Crystallization wasn't a concern, but the human heart was.
"Can you really resolve the Grass of Crystallization in our bodies?" the eldest senior brother asked.
Su Yu looked at him and didn't answer.
The eldest senior brother was silent for a moment. "Alright, if you can resolve the Grass of Crystallization in all of us, we can make a deal."
But Su Yu shook his head and said, "No, I'll only resolve it for you."
Wouldn't resolving everyone's Grass of Crystallization be adding to his troubles? Who knew if they would gang up on him?
The eldest senior brother pondered for a moment and nodded slowly. "Alright! Deal! "
As long as he resolved the problem, they wouldn't have to stay in the cave and could find another place to recuperate.
Su Yu walked up to the crystallized eldest senior brother. His right hand, which was behind his back, was slowly rotating with a brilliant silver light of the Milky Way.
"You'll be attacked if you come within thirty feet of it," the eldest senior brother reminded him.
Su Yu nodded and stepped forward.
All of a sudden, the crystals on the eldest senior brother's body seemed to react, and one of them immediately shot towards Su Yu.
Su Yu grasped with his right hand and caught the crystal fragment in his palm.
When he opened his palm, the crystal had disappeared, leaving behind a grain the size of a sesame seed. It was the seed of the Grass of Crystallization!
The eldest senior brother's pupils constricted fiercely at the scene. Such a method was truly astonishing!
Su Yu's face was unfazed. He kept approaching, and with every step he took, more crystals shot towards him.
But Su Yu perfectly resolved all of them.
When he reached the eldest senior brother, there were already dozens of seeds in his palm!
Then, Su Yu placed his palm on the eldest senior brother's body.
The crystals on the surface of the eldest senior brother's body rapidly faded away at a speed visible to the naked eye. Finally, not a single trace was left.
Meanwhile, there were hundreds of seeds in Su Yu's palm!
The eldest senior brother was freed. He immediately operated his Vital Energy to seal the bloody hole in his chest. Because of his weakness, his body couldn't help but sway.
"Phew …" The eldest senior brother let out a long sigh and stared deeply at Su Yu. He couldn't help but look at Su Yu's right palm. He cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Junior Brother Su, for your help."
When he finished speaking, he took out a small, delicate bird from his sleeve.
Su Yu's eyes lit up. He had finally obtained it. After some modification by Yun Yazi, it could become a flying treasure that could travel through the Void.
This would be of great help to Su Yu's ability to survive the Thirty-Nine Ordeals.
Su Yu nodded and reached out to grab the wooden bird.
However, at that moment, a strong, sharp green light was aimed directly at Su Yu's palm. Su Yu had no choice but to dodge and give up on grabbing the wooden bird.
