Zhou Wen, who was walking behind, said to Lu Yunxian and Xu Wen, "I want to see Torch Dragon, so I won't be going with you to Qiongqi."
"We'll go with you," Xu Wen said.
Although their conversation was very soft, it still attracted Qu Qingyun's attention.
"Didn't Professor Lei already say that you have to obey the arrangements after entering? You can't wander around randomly. Do you have a death wish?" The moment Qu Qingyun said that, Professor Lei and company turned their heads and looked at them.
"What's going on?" Professor Lei came over and asked.
"Professor Lei, I came here to take a look at the Torch Dragon temple. I won't be going to the Qiongqi temple. Now that we have offerings, it shouldn't be a problem to go anywhere, right? "Zhou Wen said.
Professor Lei pondered for a moment and said, "Although that's the case in theory, the temple is strange and bizarre. Anything can happen. It's best not to split up. If anything happens, we can still think of a solution together. Why don't we head to the Torch Dragon temple to take a look after we're done here? "
Zhou Wen shook his head and said, "Those offerings can only maintain stability for less than an hour. By the time you return from the Qiongqi temple, I'm afraid there won't be much time left. I'll go by myself. I'm just taking a look. Nothing will happen."
"Pretend to know when you don't. The offerings we provide can last for at least two hours. If you don't understand, don't spout nonsense," Qu Qingyun said with a sneer.
"More than two hours? Professor Lei, is that true? "Zhou Wen ignored Qu Qingyun's sarcasm and asked Professor Lei with a frown.
"That's right. For safety reasons, the offerings we provide each time have to last for more than two hours. And the working time has to be limited to an hour and a half. We can end work early today and take you to the Torch Dragon temple to take a look," Professor Lei said.
"Professor Lei, I think it's best if you check the offerings again. I'm sure that your offerings can only last for an hour and a half. If you really want to stay inside for an hour and a half, I'm afraid it will be very difficult for you to come out alive," Zhou Wen said seriously.
Qu Qingyun said with a sneer, "The amount of offerings has been strictly calculated. There has never been a mistake. How can a layman like you be so sure?"
The offering was personally placed by Qu Qingyun. If Zhou Wen said that there was a problem with the offering, wouldn't that mean that Qu Qingyun had made a mistake?
Xu Wen couldn't help but speak up for Zhou Wen. "Young Master Wen isn't someone who speaks without reason. He definitely has his reasons for saying that there's a problem."
"What's the point? Could it be that the results of our plan with so many experts would be wrong? "Qu Qingyun said disdainfully.
Professor Lei pondered for a moment before asking Zhou Wen, "Zhou Wen, why did you say that the offering can only last for an hour?"
"Professor Lei, the blood you used for the blood sacrifice was obtained from the Poison Bat, right?" Zhou Wen asked after some thought.
"That's right. In the past, we used live sacrifices. Later, we realized that fresh blood could also be used. Because it's too difficult to catch a live Poison Bat, we're now using blood as a representative. The dosage is precisely calculated, so there's usually no mistake," Professor Lei said.
"There's nothing wrong with the quantity, but there's something wrong with the blood. The bat's blood isn't pure. It's been mixed with something else, so the time it can last will be much shorter than you expected." After Zhou Wen said that, he looked at Lu Yunxian and said, "Yunxian, this shouldn't be a coincidence. Investigate everyone related to this matter carefully. Someone might have tampered with it."
"Do you think there's a problem just because you say so?" Qu Qingyun still felt that Zhou Wen was being unreasonable because Professor Lei didn't let him go to the Torch Dragon temple.
"Zhou Wen, how do you know that the bat's blood is mixed with something else? This is a very serious problem, "Professor Lei asked Zhou Wen with a heavy expression.
"Professor Lei, Adjutant An was the one who told you about the live sacrifice, right?" Zhou Wen asked.
"Yes." Professor Lei nodded.
"I was the one who told Adjutant An this method," Zhou Wen said.
"You really dare to say anything. How many times have you been to the temple? How dare you say that you discovered the method of living sacrifice? Why don't you say that you also discovered a way to kill Mythical creatures? "Qu Qingyun curled his lips.
"This matter is very important, but the blood has already been absorbed by the Aoyin stone statue. There's no way to test it now." Professor Lei looked at the Aoyin stone statue and pondered for a moment before saying, "Safety first. Since Zhou Wen said that there's a problem with the blood, let's temporarily cancel this research."
"Teacher, why do you have to listen to a layman's nonsense? We've used it so many times without any problems. Why is there a problem with the blood the moment he comes? Isn't this nonsense? If we waste this sacrifice, it will take us a few days to get the bat's blood again. We won't be able to do anything for the next few days, "Qu Qingyun said unhappily.
However, Professor Lei insisted, "Safety first. Since there are doubts, we can't take the risk regardless of whether it's true or not."
With Professor Lei saying so, what else could Qu Qingyun say? All he could do was sulk.
"Since you said that the sacrificial artifact can last for about an hour, since we have given up on our plans today, let's go to the Torch Dragon temple to take a look. It'll only take about ten minutes to return. Even if there's a problem with the blood, it won't be a problem," Professor Lei said to Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen thought to himself, I'm going to kill Torch Dragon. If I bring you along, I'm afraid Torch Dragon will be able to kill all of you in one go.
"Professor Lei, it's best you go to the Qiongqi temple for research. I'll go to the Torch Dragon temple myself," Zhou Wen said to Professor Lei.
Qu Qingyun immediately said angrily, "The person who said that there's a problem with the sacrificial artifact and can't go is you. Now, you are the one who wants to go. Whether it's a god or a ghost, it's all up to you."
Professor Lei frowned as well. "If it's really as you said, the sacrificial artifact can only maintain the stability of the passageway for less than an hour. Our preparation work will take more than half an hour. There's no point in going."
Zhou Wen didn't say a word. He looked at the Aoyin stone statue and walked in front of it.
Everyone didn't know what he was up to as they looked at him. Qu Qingyun opened his mouth to say something, but before he could say anything, he saw Zhou Wen stand in front of the Aoyin stone statue. The Bamboo Blade in his hand suddenly unsheathed.
Everyone was given a fright. It wasn't that they hadn't tried to destroy the Aoyin stone statue, but they ended up suffering heavy losses.
Inside the temple, the Aoyin stone statue was augmented by some kind of power. Even if there were many Epic Companion Beasts attacking it, it could devour them in one gulp.
If Zhou Wen were to alarm the Aoyin stone statue, they would probably die.
Someone wanted to stop Zhou Wen, but before they could open their mouths, the Bamboo Blade in Zhou Wen's hand flashed and returned to its scabbard.
Boom!
Under Professor Lei's shocked gaze, the Aoyin stone statue split into two and collapsed to the sides.
"You probably won't need the sacrificial artifact for the time being," Zhou Wen said as he took two steps back.
