In the Blue Moon Secret Realm, among the red rocks!
"Zhengjun, there's no need to make a fuss. Among the blood that stained the rocks, there's very little human blood. Most of it is the blood of exotic beasts." Yu Haoran consoled him after carefully identifying the smell of fresh blood in the air.
"I see!"
Hearing that most of the blood that stained the rocks was from exotic beasts, Wu Zhengjun couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.
Although his Bloodthirsty Physique caused him to be cold and heartless, he was still a human after all. His mentality was still biased towards humans.
"Be careful!"
Just as Wu Zhengjun couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief, causing him to lose focus, a dark red light struck his heart like lightning.
Luckily, Yu Haoran had always maintained a high level of vigilance due to his adventurous nature in his previous life.
Therefore, not only did he discover the dark red light at the first moment, he also threw a punch at the dark red light in time.
Although the timing of the dark red light's sneak attack was exquisite, Yu Haoran's punch was even faster. Just as the dark red light was about to hit Wu Zhengjun's heart, his fist, which was wrapped in his physical strength and elemental energy, directly shattered the dark red light.
The shattered dark red light turned into a pool of blood and splattered on Wu Zhengjun's chest.
"Ah …!" Just as most of the splattered blood landed on Wu Zhengjun's chest, an unbearable scorching pain caused him to cry out in pain.
Seeing the green smoke rising from Wu Zhengjun's chest, Yu Haoran's expression changed as he hurriedly reminded him, "Quickly take off your shirt!"
"Yu Shixiong, what exactly was that dark red monster?" After taking off his shirt, Wu Zhengjun couldn't help but ask with lingering fear after seeing the palm-sized wound on his chest from the splattered blood.
One had to know that he possessed a perfect physical body that could withstand an all-out attack from an opponent of the same cultivation level.
Furthermore, due to the influence of the smell of blood from the red rocks, his Bloodthirsty Physique had always been in the process of being activated.
Even so, he was still burned by the dark red monster's corpse, which indirectly showed how terrifying that monster was.
If it weren't for Yu Haoran's timely help, the dark red monster would have pierced through his heart. At that time, no matter how many tricks Yu Haoran had up his sleeves, he wouldn't have been able to save his life.
Yu Haoran took out a medicinal pill for external injuries from his storage ear and threw it to Wu Zhengjun as he explained.
"If I'm not mistaken, that should be one of the Five Poisonous Beasts, the Black Scorpion Beast!"
"Yu Shixiong, I remember that the Black Scorpion Beast's color should be dark gray, and its attack power and speed shouldn't be this fast. The poison in its body shouldn't be this strong either."
Shaking his head, Wu Zhengjun questioned Yu Haoran's judgment of the Black Scorpion Beast.
"You are right." Nodding, Yu Haoran continued to explain.
"However, due to the influence of the red rocks, this Black Scorpion Beast should have mutated, causing its color, attack speed, and poison to be even stronger."
Speaking up to this point, Yu Haoran glanced at the red rocks that stretched as far as the eye could see. His expression was solemn as he exhorted, "Zhengjun, from now on, you have to be on high alert at all times to prevent any sneak attacks from the Black Scorpion Beasts."
Nodding his head vigorously, Wu Zhengjun indicated that he already understood.
Afterwards, the two of them maintained a high level of alertness and continued to go deeper into the red rocks.
Just as the two of them were less than twenty meters deep into the red rocks, three dark red lights of different sizes and shapes rushed towards Yu Haoran and Wu Zhengjun like lightning.
Although the dark red lights were very fast, for Yu Haoran and Wu Zhengjun who were on high alert, they didn't pose much of a threat.
With one punch and two palms, they easily dealt with the three dark red lights.
"Yu Shixiong, the three dark red lights just now must be the Azure Silk Snake, Thousand Legged Centipede, and Eight Clawed Spider of the Five Poisons!" After dealing with the three dark red lights, Wu Zhengzhong looked at the three monster corpses that had been blasted into a puddle of blood and asked for confirmation.
"That's right!" Nodding his head, Yu Haoran didn't say anything else. He only looked ahead with a slightly excited expression.
If this place was really as he guessed, the gathering place of the Five Poisons, then in the core of the red rocks, other than the Red Star Coral Mushroom that could help Wu Zhengjun awaken his bloodthirsty physique, there was probably an even more precious treasure.
If he could obtain that treasure and then merge it with eighteen types of top grade Spiritual Herbs that contained huge amounts of poison, then under the Martial Saint Realm, he would have a trump card that could kill anyone he wanted three times.
Taking a deep breath, Yu Haoran began to speed up into the red rocks.
…!
"Huff …!"
After being over 200 miles away from the bottomland spring, Gongsun Yiming abruptly stopped as he started to gasp heavily.
Although his true strength was already at the middle stage of Second Grade Martial Master, continuously using Movement Martial Skills to consume Yuan Li had pushed his physical strength and Yuan Li to the limit.
Two hundred kilometers, nearly five hundred kilometers, the red roots probably wouldn't be able to catch up to him.
Therefore, after stopping using Movement Martial Skills, Gong Sun Yiming hurriedly found an open space and used pills and Spiritual Stones to quickly recover his physical strength and Yuan Li.
After more than an hour, Gong Sun Yiming, who had recovered his physical strength and Yuan Li with the help of pills and Spiritual Stones, opened his eyes.
Afterward, he stood up and took out a map from his sleeve. Then, according to his escape route, he carefully searched for his current location.
When he saw that his location was less than ten kilometers away from a red dot marked on the map, Gong Sun Yiming revealed a solemn expression.
"Regardless of whether those people escaped the attack of the red roots in the end, if I'm the only one returning to the sect when the Blue Moon Secret Realm closes, those old fellows in the sect will definitely not let me off easily."
"Since that's the case, I might as well take a gamble and see if I can obtain the poison source within the red rocks. As long as I can obtain the poison source, even if those old fellows in the sect want to deal with me, they will have to consider whether they can withstand the power of the poison source."
Thinking of this, Gong Sun Yiming put away the map and hurried towards the red rocks.
About six kilometers to the west of Gong Sun Yiming, a group of more than thirty people was also using the map to determine their location.
When they saw that they were less than ten kilometers away from the red rocks, most of them agreed to enter the red rocks, as if the red rocks had an irresistible temptation.
