Green lights flashed. The twelve green wooden swords were soaked in the snake blood as if they were alive. They seemed to be absorbing the essence of the blood. The green wooden swords became more translucent. They lost some of their simplicity and became more glossy as if they had turned into green jade swords. However, the light that flowed out was a little strange. It looked like a ghostly fire. Finally, after a few swishing sounds, it flew back into Elder Han's shriveled body.
He walked forward with the Greenwood Ruler in his hand. He came to the bloody ground and gently knocked the jade horn off. Then, he rummaged through the snake's corpse and plucked out a huge snake gallbladder. It was dripping with blood. He used his bird-claw-like fingers to break the gallbladder and squeezed the bile into his mouth. Finally, he stuffed the gallbladder into his mouth as well. He chewed and swallowed.
"Sigh, even though it's bitter, for my body that's about to lose its vitality, it's a great supplement. The gallbladder of a snake spirit is not commonly seen." His words were faint and eerie. Even Li Lin and Li Yun felt a bit scared.
Then, he started to refine the snake's blood and poison. He didn't waste anything. Finally, he put all the materials into a green light and disappeared.
"You guys are too daring to come here." Elder Han's hair was messy and his face was covered. However, one could imagine his gloomy expression. His voice was cold. "Not to mention you guys, even the powerful warriors with the Spring of God wouldn't dare to enter the depths of the ruins."
"Great Uncle, I know I was wrong." Han Feiyu lowered his head and didn't dare to explain. He seemed to be very afraid of Elder Han. Li Lin and Li Yun also lowered their heads. They didn't dare to look at the old man.
"Although you're a little clever and want to take advantage of the time when the birds and beasts are escaping to come in, you've forgotten one thing. In this world, everything depends on strength. If you don't reach absolute heights, even if you have some tricks, it'll be useless." Then, Elder Han's tone became calmer. "There is a great change in the depths of the ruins. Even I have to be careful. Otherwise, my life will be in danger. Okay, you guys leave now and don't ever come back. "
"Yes!"
Even though the three of them agreed, they didn't leave immediately. They glanced at the direction of Ye Fan and Pang Bo with undisguised murderous intentions.
"Hurry up and leave!" Although Elder Han's hair was disheveled and covered his face, at this moment, two rays of light shot out from his hair. Immediately, the three of them felt an icy chill. They did not dare to stay any longer and quickly walked into the forest.
Elder Han walked towards Ye Fan and Pang Bo. His body was as withered as wood, and his black clothes seemed to be wrapped around a short bamboo pole. Coupled with his loose white hair, he looked gloomy and terrifying. Like a specter, he didn't make a single sound. His feet didn't touch the ground as he floated forward, emitting the smell of death.
Ye Fan and Pang Bo immediately became nervous. This skinny old man was too sinister. The two of them felt their scalps go numb. They weren't in the Spirit Ruin Grotto-Heaven right now. If the old man wanted to capture them to refine pills, they wouldn't be able to get help even if they cried for help.
Elder Han's feet did not touch the ground as he approached. The cold laughter that came out of his mouth was like the cry of an owl, causing one's hair to stand on end. This was not the sound of a living person.
"To be able to escape from the mouth of the Jade Horned Snake and pick the Jade Serpent Orchid, not bad!" He nodded repeatedly while staring at Ye Fan and Pang Bo. His white hair shot out two rays of ruthlessness as he constantly sized up Ye Fan and Pang Bo.
The two of them felt uncomfortable being praised like this, especially when he said the word "not bad". It didn't feel like he was praising their performance, but more like he was examining their bodies. Ye Fan and Pang Bo felt their hair stand on end. This ghost-like Elder Han was at the end of his lifespan and was thinking of a way to refine the Yang Return Pill. Staring at them like this made their hair stand on end.
"Greetings, Elder Han."
Ye Fan and Pang Bo came forward to greet him. There was no way to escape at this moment. The old man could control a divine rainbow and catch up to them in an instant.
"You two seem to be a little afraid of me. There's no need to be like this. I actually like young people, especially young people full of life and vitality." Elder Han's voice was low and hoarse. He took a few steps forward and looked at Pang Bo. Then, his gaze landed on Ye Fan. It was incomparably hot, as if he was looking at his own belongings.
Ye Fan almost directly punched out. Pang Bo also couldn't hold it in anymore and was about to attack. However, at this moment, Elder Han suddenly patted Ye Fan's shoulder.
Then, like a ghost, he floated backwards and left the two of them. "I have high hopes for you two.
"I have high hopes for you. Cultivate well from now on." His words were powerless and seemed lifeless. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared in front of the two of them and flew into the depths of the ruins.
"What does this old thing mean?" Pang Bo revealed a suspicious expression. Just now, he thought that Elder Han was going to attack. He didn't think that he would leave just like that.
"This old thing …" Ye Fan's expression was not very good. He cursed in a low voice, "He didn't even bother to hide his naked gaze. He seems to be treating me as his private property. Damn it, I curse him to be trapped in the depths of the ruins until he dies!"
Pang Bo suggested, "Let's quickly leave this place before that old thing does anything. The farther, the better."
"It's the same whether we escape or not. He didn't attack directly because he was worried about Elder Wu Qingfeng. But looking at his attitude, it seems that everything is under his control. I don't know what he wants to do … "
In the distant forest, Han Feiyu was puzzled. He originally thought that his great uncle was going to directly capture Ye Fan to refine medicine. He didn't think that he would only stop for a moment and then float away. Li Lin and Li Yun were gritting their teeth. Seeing that Elder Han had already left, they discussed in low voices, wanting to directly end the lives of Ye Fan and Pang Bo.
"Pang Bo is an immortal seedling. He most likely has Elder Wu Qingfeng's imprint on him. If we kill them, I'm afraid he will immediately find out that we did it." In the end, the three of them left angrily. They suppressed their killing intent and didn't attack.
At this time, a divine rainbow streaked across the sky, rushing into the depths of the ruins.
"It's Elder Wu Qingfeng." Ye Fan and Pang Bo looked at each other with joy on their faces.
At this moment, the depths of the ruins were undoubtedly very dangerous. But Ye Fan and Pang Bo didn't retreat, they chose to continue forward.
"We won't enter the depths of the ruins. We will search in the depths of the ruins. Maybe we can find a few spirit herbs like the Jade Serpent Orchid." The two of them felt that the danger was concentrated in the depths of the ruins. A shocking change had happened there. The other areas should be relatively safe.
The mountain forest was quiet. After walking forward for another ten miles, Ye Fan and Pang Bo saw many foundation stones and rubble. Even the vegetation couldn't completely cover up these ruins.
And during this process, they finally confirmed that not all the vicious birds and beasts had escaped. They saw tyrannical creatures that weren't any weaker than the Jade Horned Snake in a few areas. They were all hiding in their caves, restless and uneasy.
"Dong!"
At this time, a muffled sound came from the depths of the ruins again. Ye Fan and Pang Bo instantly felt their hearts tremble. It was as if something had clawed at their hearts, and they felt a sharp pain. The two of them had physiques that far surpassed ordinary people, but they still felt uncomfortable. They staggered back a few steps before stabilizing themselves. Their faces were pale, and they both felt somewhat frightened.
"Just what is that thing …"
"Did you notice that the interval between these muffled sounds is getting shorter and shorter?"
Not only that, the two of them also felt an incomparably majestic aura of life coming from the depths of the ruins.
"What do you think?" Pang Bo asked.
Ye Fan shook his head and said, "I have a very absurd thought. I feel like some kind of tyrannical creature is slowly awakening after countless years of slumber."
Pang Bo revealed a shocked expression and said, "You can't be trying to say that that muffled sound is the sound of its heartbeat, right?"
At this time, the sound of breaking air rang out incessantly. More than a dozen divine rainbows cut through the sky and rushed into the depths of the ruins.
