Was … was this done by the Tricolor Vine? The information given by the Vice Sect Master didn't mention it.
Du Feng was right. It was the root system of the Tricolor Vine. It needed to suck the blood of human warriors to make the gourd mature. Not only this time, but also in the past. The ripe red gourd that Uncle Wei took back was also grown after sucking enough human blood.
"Pfft, pfft …"
While Du Feng was distracted, a few more people's chests were pierced. Their hearts were plucked out, but no blood spurted out. This was because the blood was transported to the trunk of the Tricolor Vine through the root system. The red gourd was getting bigger and bigger.
Many warriors seemed to have expected this and were using their movement skills to avoid the roots that came out of the ground. As for the weaker warriors, their chests were pierced and their hearts were plucked out, becoming nourishment for the Tricolor Vine. Du Feng was lucky because the roots didn't attack the people on the stairs. It seemed that they were naturally afraid of the Tricolor Palace, or there was some kind of rule that restricted them.
Once a massacre happened, humanity would be exposed. Some warriors didn't help their companions who were entangled by the roots. Instead, they hoped that they would die quickly. This was because once the Tricolor Vine was full of blood, the gourd on the vine would mature. Once the gourd matured, it would be time to fight for the treasure.
Those who were dead now would never have the chance to fight for the treasure. Because Du Feng was already on the stairs, he was a little far from the red gourd. It would be hard for him to fight for it.
He didn't want to get involved in this fight, so he turned around and continued to walk up the stairs. Everyone had a tacit understanding. No one attacked him from behind. Now it was time to see who would die first. Those who survived could fight for the treasure. As for the warriors like Du Feng who were walking further and further away from the Tricolor Palace, they were no longer a threat.
Du Feng walked to the door of the Tricolor Palace and tried to push it with his hand. He found that the door wouldn't budge. He turned around and saw that the red gourd on the vine was ripe. A moment ago, the warriors were waiting anxiously, but the next moment, they started to fight.
A yellow-robed male martial artist with a sallow complexion was the first to pluck the red gourd. However, just as he raised his hands, his legs were grabbed by someone, and then someone stabbed him from behind. The red gourd was also snatched away.
It turned out that what the Tricolor Vine had done earlier was not a massacre. The real massacre had only just begun. In order to compete with each other, humans killed the most of their own kind.
"Crunch crunch …"
Just as the martial artists were fighting fiercely, the doors of the Three Colored Palace slowly opened. It seemed that the door could only be opened when the gourd was ripe and taken away. Since the door was open, Du Feng didn't want to continue watching those people killing each other, so he simply stepped into the hall.
There were also some martial artists who had the same idea as him. They didn't participate in the fight below, but walked into the main hall. There were many small rooms in the main hall. He could search around first.
"Master, I can't help you this time."
The male ghost cultivator of the Blossom City wanted to accompany Du Feng to search for hidden treasures. However, he found that the entire White Bone Banner was suppressed, and the generals inside couldn't use their skills. This Three Colored Palace had a strong suppression on devil cultivators, ghost cultivators, and demonic artifacts.
Since the male ghost cultivator of the Blossom City couldn't use his skills, the ghost servant naturally couldn't do anything. Xiao Hei was still asleep, so Du Feng could only rely on himself. Others would go straight to the elixir room, the arsenal, the study, and so on. At least, they would go to the bedroom to search.
However, he did the opposite and went straight to the woodshed. It was not the kitchen, but the woodshed where firewood was stored, which was the most dilapidated room.
In a place like the Cloud Listening Secret Realm, with the ability of the masters in the Heaven Realm, why would they build a woodshed? Did they need to cook with fire? Since they had set up a woodshed, there must be a special meaning. Therefore, Du Feng didn't hesitate and went straight to the woodshed with the fastest body movement. If he didn't go, when the other rooms were full, someone would come to rob the woodshed.
After he rushed into the woodshed, he was a little dumbfounded. He didn't see the treasures he imagined, but he saw scattered firewood on the ground. There were also some pieces of wood that hadn't been chopped yet.
No way, this is really a woodshed used for chopping and storing firewood. Is there no other use? Du Feng searched with his divine sense and scanned with his eyes. But after searching for a while, he didn't find anything except for the Firewood Killer.
Wait, in addition to the firewood on the ground, could it be that the firewood was the key?
Du Feng quickly picked up a piece of wood and put it on the stake. Then, he raised the Dragon Sword and chopped it hard, hoping to find something in it. But when he chopped down with the sword, there was nothing, and the Dragon Sword was stuck.
Oh, he immediately realized what was going on. What was there to look for? Wasn't this firewood a treasure? Even the Dragon Sword, which was a middle-grade magic artifact, couldn't chop it. This wood was quite strong. Although he didn't know what it could be used for for the time being, but it would be good to take it back first.
Thinking of this, Du Feng waved his hand and put all the wood, including the chopped firewood, into the small world of his necklace. Just after he finished, three people came in. One of them was holding a golden axe, and the other two were holding large knives, looking at Du Feng with provocative eyes.
"Boy, if you know what's good for you, hand over what you just got."
The male martial artist walking in front, carrying the golden axe and wearing earrings, spoke first. When he spoke, he kept tilting his head, not knowing whether it was intentional or natural.
"There's nothing, when I came in, it was just like this."
Du Feng was telling the truth, there was nothing here except a pile of broken firewood. Even if he didn't take it, others would not want the broken firewood scattered on the ground.
"Who are you kidding, you obviously put something away just now."
When something was put into the storage space, there would be a small fluctuation, and the nearby martial artists could feel it. The male martial artist behind him, who was also wearing a nose ring and holding a large saber, was obviously not convinced.
"It's just some broken firewood, I'll take it back to make a fire."
With that, Du Feng really took out a piece of chopped firewood and gestured in front of the three people. It would have been better if he didn't take it out, but when he took it out, he angered the other party.
"Are you kidding me, you came in just to collect these broken things?"
