"There's not much time left, and I don't want to waste any more time! I'll ask Leader Gu one last time. Does Emei Sect want to assist Taishan Sect? Also, I can tell you one more thing. Don't rely too much on Elder Wu You's Dragon-catcher Hand. If you want to get the Tianshan Snow Lotus Seed with Dragon-catcher Hand, it's too easy! "
Deng Tianyang's expression showed that he was very impatient.
"No." Gu Zheng's expression did not change. He still shook his head with a smile.
"Alright, I hope I can still see Leader Gu when I leave Tianshan. Take care!"
Deng Tianyang shrugged and smiled. He did not seem to care.
Gu Zheng returned to where Emei Sect was, but he kept thinking about the conversation he had with Deng Tianyang.
Elder Wu You's Dragon-catcher Hand was indeed the key to snatching the Tianshan Snow Lotus Seed in the original plan. Although Gu Zheng and the others had thought of Deng Tianyang's reminder, Gu Zheng and the others did not expect Deng Tianyang to know about Elder Wu You's Dragon-catcher Hand.
After all, Elder Wu You had told Gu Zheng that he had never used Dragon-catcher Hand on anyone else. Furthermore, Deng Tianyang's expression of disdain when he mentioned the Dragon-catcher Hands. It was likely that the fact that Elder Wu You knew the Dragon-catcher Hands was not a secret in the Taishan Sect. Perhaps it was also not a secret in some other sects.
Also, when Deng Tianyang said "take care" before he left, Gu Zheng did not think it was a threat. It was an allusion to the power of extreme cold when the Tianshan Snow Lotus Seed matured. However, Deng Tianyang did not know that Gu Zheng had already learned about the power of extreme cold from Wu Eryong.
"The power of extreme cold?"
Gu Zheng's eyes suddenly widened. When he turned his head to look, he found that Deng Tianyang, Du Feng, and Liu Qingyun were not near the circle!
Deng Tianyang had said that there was not much time left, and there was not much time left before the Tianshan Snow Lotus Seed matured.
However, Deng Tianyang and the other two people did not come outside the circle! This was very suspicious. How many things could they not finish during the time they disappeared? Why did they have to be outside the circle and on top of the mountain?
"Could it be that the power of extreme cold is not as simple as what Wu Eryong said?"
Gu Zheng's mind, and his brows furrowed.
"But if that's the case, what about the three people who are in the fourth realm standing outside of the circle? Could it be that they are just pawns used to confuse people and can be abandoned? "
"No, that's definitely not the case. Although the Tianshan Snow Lotus Seed is precious, sacrificing three fourth level cultivators to confuse others is a bit too much. After all, the Snow Lotus Seed is not a 100% guarantee for advancement. For a cultivation sect, it is not easy to nurture disciples."
"Since this does not make sense, then there is only a relatively reasonable explanation. The power of extreme cold is indeed greater than what Wu Eryong said. The elixir that they refined to deal with the power of extreme cold should be able to allow three people in the fourth realm to withstand the power of extreme cold. However, the quantity of this elixir may not be much, so the others did not take it. Moreover, the power of extreme cold should be able to threaten a cultivator in the fifth realm, but it is not fatal. Therefore, Deng Tianyang wants to find more helpers! "
Gu Zheng's mind was racing, and the voice of the Weapon Spirit rang in his mind at this moment.
"You have improved. You can think calmly and find problems from the details."
The Weapon Spirit's gratified voice paused, and then became very proud. "The Tianshan Snow Lotus Seed is now brewing the power of extreme cold. This power of extreme cold is indeed able to hurt a cultivator in the fifth realm, but you do not have to worry about it. The few of you have consumed the middle grade Ice Spirit Delicacy. This bit of extreme cold is really unable to do anything to you."
"That's great!"
Gu Zheng rejoiced inwardly. The valiant Ice Spirit Delicacy had turned what he had been worried about into an advantage.
"Even though you have some advantages, you still need to be careful. This is a rare experience for you. The more dangerous the environment, the faster one can grow up!"
"I will!"
Gu Zheng agreed with the Weapon Spirit's words. He also felt as if his blood was slowly burning. This was a kind of thirst for excitement, for growth, and for adventure.
After thinking about it, Gu Zheng decided to have a chat with the two elders to summarize all the possible variables that might arise during this operation. He wanted to be prepared as much as possible.
The temperature had dropped. Everyone could feel this, but besides a few people, no one knew what this meant.
The light on the Tianshan Snow Lotus Seed was flickering rapidly. The Tianshan Snow Lotus Seed itself was already bright yellow and translucent like jade.
"Ah …"
Screams rang out. The moment the Tianshan Snow Lotus Seed matured, the light it emitted was so bright that no one could open their eyes.
"Whoosh …"
Then, everyone heard a gust of wind. With the Tianshan Snow Lotus Seed as the epicenter, the power of extreme frost suddenly spread out in all directions like a shockwave.
No one outside the circle was spared. Everyone was swept by the power of extreme frost. Miserable screams were heard as the mountaintop instantly turned into a living hell.
Except for Gu Zheng, Gu An, and the four people from the Taishan Sect, everyone with a cultivation base lower than the fifth level was turned into ice sculptures the moment the power of extreme frost touched their bodies.
The power of extreme cold covered a radius of fifty meters. In less than two seconds, when the power of extreme cold disappeared, all the ice sculptures were like sand sculptures that had been shaken. They all turned into ice dust and were blown away by the strong wind on the mountain peak.
The people with a cultivation base lower than the fifth level vomited blood and fell to the ground. Cold currents were running rampant in their bodies, so they were basically crippled for a period of time. The people with a cultivation base in the middle stage were all pale. Although they did not suffer any serious injuries, the cold currents in their bodies made it difficult for them to move for a short period of time. The people with a lower cultivation base suffered the least damage, but they had to get rid of the raging cold currents in their bodies as soon as possible. Therefore, for a short period of time, they were also in a state of immobility.
At that moment, on the huge mountaintop, the only people who were completely unaffected were the people from the Taishan Sect, the Emei Sect, and Liu Qingyun.
Even though they knew beforehand that the power of extreme frost would be terrifying, this degree of lethality still made Gu Zheng and the others suck in a breath of cold air. Moreover, for those who were swept by the power of extreme frost, although they did not suffer any injuries, they were also unable to move for a short period of time.
Therefore, the moment the power of extreme frost completely disappeared and their vision was restored, Gu Zheng's group and the people from the Taishan Sect began to move at almost the same time.
Gu Zheng's group wanted to get close to the Tianshan Snow Lotus Seed, but only one of the three people from the Taishan Sect rushed forward, while the other three attacked Gu Zheng at the same time!
One had to admit that the Taishan Sect's tactic was very clever to attack the enemy's vital point! Once the people from the Taishan Sect attacked Gu Zheng and held off the entire Emei Sect during this rare time, the Tianshan Snow Lotus Seed would be theirs.
However, the people from the Taishan Sect had obviously underestimated Gu Zheng's group. Seeing that Gu Zheng was being attacked, Elder Wuyou did not stop at all and continued to rush toward the Tianshan Snow Lotus Seed, except for Elder Wuchou and Gu An who were held back.
Silently, a layer of emerald green light shield protected Gu Zheng within it. After activating the fairy artifact Emei Ring's special feature, he also used the Ethereal Body Illusion Technique. His figure on the snowy ground suddenly appeared to be fleeting.
The Emei Ring was a low-grade fairy artifact that could resist physical attacks. However, with Gu Zheng's current immortal power, he could only activate it for a short period of time. The reason why Gu Zheng did not activate it last time when he faced the undecaying corpses was because the undecaying corpses had 50% of their strength. Under the attack of 50% of their strength, they would not be able to hold on for long. Furthermore, there were so many undecaying corpses, so it was better to rely on his body movements to avoid them.
This time was different. This time, they were fighting for the 1,000-year-old snow lotus. It was very likely that it would be a matter of a moment. If he did not use it now, it would be too wasteful.
"Whoosh …"
When they were only ten meters away from the 1,000-year-old snow lotus, Elder Wuyou, who did not stop moving, waved his hand. His inner strength turned into a strong wind in the shape of a dragon's claw and grabbed at the 1,000-year-old snow lotus.
"Go …"
The Taishan Sect disciple who was following closely behind Elder Wuyou shouted and threw out the ancient sword in his hand. This was not an ordinary move, but a rare sword-controlling ancient martial art.
The ancient sword that was thrown out still maintained a slashing posture as if it was being controlled by someone. It heavily slashed at Elder Wuyou's dragon-shaped strong wind.
"Bang …"
In the loud sound, the ancient sword destroyed the dragon-shaped strong wind. However, the Taishan Sect disciple who had used the ancient martial art did not have it easy either. With his cultivation at the middle stage of the fourth level, he broke the Dragon-catcher Hand of the fifth level. He, who had a mysterious connection with the ancient sword, was immediately hit by the backlash and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Although the Dragon-Capturing Hand had been broken, Elder Wuyou, who had not stopped moving, was now even closer to the thousand-year-old Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus.
"Whoosh …"
Elder Wuyou waved his hand again and the strong wind in the shape of a dragon's claw grabbed at the 1,000-year-old snow lotus.
"How dare you!"
Deng Tianyang and the others had also been approaching the 1,000-year-old snow lotus, but they had been hiding in a safe area at the beginning, so there was still some distance between them and the lotus. Seeing that Elder Wuyou was about to seize the 1,000-year-old snow lotus, he roared and directly used the immortal artifact that could be used again.
"Bang …"
The dragon-shaped strong wind was destroyed again, and the Pure Gold Hoop, which had not lost its momentum, heavily hit Elder Wuyou's chest.
"Argh …"
Elder Wuyou, who was very close to the 1,000-year-old snow lotus, screamed and flew backward.
At this moment.
The person closest to the 1,000-year-old snow lotus was the Taishan Sect disciple who had broken Elder Wuyou's first Dragon-catcher Hand, and the one who followed closely behind him was Gu Zheng.
"Lie down!"
Elder Wuyou was seriously injured. Gu Zheng was also burning with anger. He raised his palm and hit the Taishan Sect disciple's back.
"Puff …"
The Taishan Sect disciple, who had already vomited blood, vomited blood again. He was directly knocked to the ground by Gu Zheng's palm and lost the ability to fight.
Under normal circumstances, it would be very difficult for Gu Zheng to defeat a cultivator in the middle stage of the fourth level with a single palm strike. However, this disciple of the Taishan Sect was already injured and in a hurry to obtain the thousand-year Snow Lotus. To Gu Zheng, it was not strange for him to be defeated when he was wide open.
The speed of the Ethereal Body Illusion Art was so fast that Gu Zheng's figure flashed again. He was only one step away from the 1,000-year-old snow lotus and he would be able to reach the distance of the Chaos Space.
"Lie down!"
An angry roar sounded. Liu Qingyun, who was also closer to the 1,000-year-old snow lotus, stretched out his palm toward Gu Zheng.
Liu Qingyun held an ancient mirror in his hand. Although it wasn't big, the dazzling light it emitted not only temporarily blinded Gu Zheng, but also caused his head to buzz. He fell into a special state.
The ancient mirror was called the Sun Moon Mirror. It was an energy storage type immortal item. After it was filled with the essence of the sun and moon, it could only be used once.
Moreover, even though the power of the 'Sun Moon Mirror' was strange, it wasn't all that powerful. If Gu Zheng's cultivation had already reached the fifth layer, even though he would still be temporarily blinded by the 'Sun Moon Mirror', he wouldn't be like right now, directly running past the thousand year Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus without being able to do anything.
In Gu Zheng's world, there was only endless white light in front of his eyes and an indescribable fear that urged him to run away with all his might.
"Haha …"
Deng Tianyang laughed. Gu Zheng had missed the 1,000-year-old snow lotus, while Elder Wuchou and Gu An were entangled by the Taishan Sect. At this moment, he was the closest to the 1,000-year-old snow lotus.
The Thousand Year Snow Lotus was almost within reach, and the smile on Deng Tianyang's face grew even wider. However, at this moment, the Level 5 late stage cultivators who had been affected by the power of extreme cold finally managed to expel the power of extreme cold from their bodies.
"Don't even think about it, old man!"
Fang Xuemei roared. The phoenix head on her walking stick suddenly opened and a stream of air surrounded the 1,000-year-old snow lotus.
"Hiss …"
Deng Tianyang's hand touched the stream of air and was injured by it, causing him to gasp.
"I didn't expect your walking stick to be an immortal item!"
As Deng Tianyang spoke, his other hand surrounded by internal strength reached for the 1,000-year-old snow lotus again.
"Bang …"
A loud sound came from the point of contact between his palm and the stream of air. Deng Tianyang's hand quickly withdrew as if it had been electrocuted.
"Bastard!"
Deng Tianyang cursed angrily and did not give up. He flicked his sleeve and was about to use his internal strength to attack the stream of air.
"Get lost!"
Elder Cao Ying of the Nangong Sect roared and stabbed his sword at Deng Tianyang's back.
Deng Tianyang had no choice but to distance himself from the 1,000-year-old snow lotus. The scene quieted down for a moment.
With Deng Tianyang's attempt, the others did not dare to try again. Everyone's eyes fell on Deng Tianyang.
There were more than thirty people on the mountain peak, but now there were only twenty left. Many of them were injured Fifth Stage early stage and middle stage cultivators. Up until now, these people were still unable to get rid of the power of extreme cold in their bodies.
The casualties were heavy, but Deng Tianyang's intention to hide outside the circle from the start was indeed a bit of a provocation, so those people were also staring at him closely.
"Hmph."
Deng Tianyang coldly snorted. Other than Fang Xuemei and Nangong Wushuang, he really did not put the others in his eyes.
"Fellow Daoist Fang, your magic tool is quite powerful. However, it seems that once this stream of air is produced, even you have no way to stop it halfway? If so, when can it stop? "
Nangong Wushuang, who was dressed in white, spoke.
"In three minutes."
Fang Xuemei, who gave up on helping her disciples to get rid of the power of extreme cold, stood up and looked at Deng Tianyang with resentment.
"Old man, since you knew beforehand that there would be cold air, why didn't you tell everyone?"
"Oh, Fang Xuemei, are you an idiot? The Tianshan Snow Lotus was originally snatched. Why should I tell you people? Or, if you, Fang Xuemei, knew about this in advance, would you share it with everyone? What a joke! "
Deng Tianyang narrowed his eyes and sneered.
"Old man, you're courting death!"
Fang Xuemei was furious. She waved the phoenix head walking stick in her hand and a scarlet red inner strength immediately shot towards Deng Tianyang.
"No one wants a crazy woman!" Deng Tianyang did not show any weakness. He pushed his palms together and the inner strength that left his body flew forward.
"Bang …"
With a loud sound, the two inner strengths collided. Fang Xuemei's inner strength was more powerful. After destroying Deng Tianyang's inner strength, it still flew towards him.
"Huff …"
Unforgiving, Fang Xuemei's phoenix head walking stick waved again and again as her inner strength flew towards Deng Tianyang. While Deng Tianyang was resisting, he tried his best to get closer to Fang Xuemei. It seemed that he wanted to engage in close combat.
The two sects' leaders were fighting, and the other members of the sects were also fighting. The scene was quite chaotic for a while.
However, the other sects did not participate in the battle. Some of them were trying to stop the fight, some were afraid of being implicated, and some were guarding near the Snow Lotus.
At the same time.
"Gu Zheng!"
The Weapon Spirit's voice finally woke Gu Zheng up, causing him to stop running.
When his mind returned to the real world, Gu Zheng was covered in cold sweat. There were two elders and Gu An beside him. Elder Wuchou was holding him tightly to prevent him from running around. Not far from him was the edge of the cliff.
"Sect Master, are you alright?"
Seeing that Gu Zheng's eyes had regained clarity and his body was no longer struggling, Elder Wuchou released Gu Zheng and almost cried tears of joy.
"I'm fine. What happened during this time?"
Gu Zheng's heart warmed, and he smiled at the three people who were concerned about him.
"Sect Master, you weren't in a daze for long …"
Elder Wuchou recounted what had happened in a moment.
"How are your injuries, Great Elder?"
After listening to Elder Wuchou's recount, Gu Zheng looked at Elder Wuyou who looked very weak.
"The grass that Sect Master gave me is delicious. I'm fine now. However, I'll still pretend that I'm seriously injured and hope that it'll work. "
Elder Wu You blinked his eyes, still looking very weak.
Gu Zheng nodded and thanked the Weapon Spirit in his heart.
"You're only thanking me now?" The Weapon Spirit's voice was a little angry.
However, before Gu Zheng could say anything, the Weapon Spirit's tone became gratified again. "Actually, you don't have to thank me. If you hadn't increased the power of the Mind Soothing Art and strengthened your mental state, I wouldn't have been able to wake you up in four counts.
In other words, even if I didn't wake you up, you would have recovered from that state faster than ordinary people. This is the benefit of the Mind Soothing Art. "
"The Mind Soothing Art has such a function?"
Gu Zheng expressed his surprise. After all, the Mind Soothing Art was only a low-level immortal art.
"What's there to be surprised about? It's still an immortal art, and none of the immortal arts I taught you are bad. As long as you work hard, the potential of each of them is better than you can imagine."
Gu Zheng couldn't see the Weapon Spirit, but if the Weapon Spirit had a physical body, he felt that the Weapon Spirit would definitely roll its eyes at him at this moment.
"Well, let's not think about those immortal arts for now. I'd better think about how to get the thousand-year snow lotus."
"I advise you not to go. Things aren't that simple!"
"Oh? What's going on? "
Gu Zheng hurriedly asked. He could hear the seriousness in the Weapon Spirit's voice.
"Just when you were lost, I sensed a fleeting fluctuation of Immortal Force. That fluctuation of Immortal Force seemed to be some kind of restriction left behind by the Flourishing Era of Magic here. It overflowed after it was activated."
"Restriction? What kind of restriction? "
"It could be a Dharma Formation, or it could be a trap!"
The Weapon Spirit's words made Gu Zheng ponder, and also made Gu Zheng temporarily give up on his plan to go over.
"Damn Liu Qingyun, you made me miss out on the thousand-year snow lotus. However, since things aren't that simple, this miss might not be a bad thing. It's good to take a look first. Who knows if it's a blessing in disguise! "
Gu Zheng rubbed his chin and squinted his eyes at the thousand-year snow lotus in the distance.
"Alright, stop fighting. Have you had enough?"
Nangong Wushuang finally couldn't stand the fight between Deng Tianyang and Fang Xuemei.
However, Deng Tianyang and Fang Xuemei simply didn't listen to Nangong Wushuang's words. Both of them had been injured by the other party, and each of them had lost a disciple. This time, the enmity between them was a little too big.
"Enough! There are still enemies in the dark. If you all want to die here, then go ahead and fight! "
Nangong Wushuang's hair fluttered in the wind, and his voice was as loud as a lion's roar. Deng Tianyang and Fang Xuemei, who were targeted by him, suddenly felt a headache and couldn't help but temporarily stop fighting.
"Deng Tianyang, just you wait. This matter isn't over!"
Fang Xuemei's expression was hideous as she spat out a mouthful of blood on the ground.
"Sure, anytime!"
Deng Tianyang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and threw a healing elixir into his mouth.
At this time, there was only about a minute left before the cyclone that protected the thousand-year snow lotus disappeared. During the time when Deng Tianyang and Fang Xuemei were fighting, all the people who were affected by the power of extreme cold had also removed the power of extreme cold from their bodies.
The scene was unprecedentedly quiet. Other than the people from Emei Sect who were standing in the distance, everyone's eyes were fixed on the thousand-year snow lotus in the cyclone.
"Eh?" Gu Zheng made a soft sound.
"Sect Leader also saw it?" Elder Wu You looked at Gu Zheng with a serious expression.
"Yes, since it's like this, we have to do something."
Because they knew that things weren't that simple, Gu Zheng and the others' eyes weren't always looking at the thousand-year snow lotus. It was also because they were paying more attention to their surroundings that they could see things that others couldn't. A person died silently on the field, but the others didn't notice it!
According to legend, once a heavenly treasure matured, it must be picked immediately. Otherwise, it would automatically wither and return to dust. At this time, the thousand-year snow lotus was already showing signs of withering.
"None of us want the thousand-year snow lotus to wither, so I have a suggestion. After the cyclone disappears, let me pick it first, then we can fight for it. What do you think?"
Nangong Wushuang suggested to everyone.
"You? Don't tell me you want to run away with it? "Fang Xuemei sneered.
"Am I, Nangong Wushuang, that kind of person? There's not much time left. It's up to you whether you want me to pick it or not! "Nangong Wushuang snorted coldly, looking very angry.
"I agree to let Elder Nangong pick it."
"I also agree to let Elder Nangong pick it!"
First, the people who supported Nangong Sect voiced out. In the end, even Deng Tianyang agreed. After all, Nangong Wushuang had a good reputation.
With everyone's support, Fang Xuemei, who wanted to pick the thousand-year snow lotus, had to give up the idea.
"You can pick it, but everyone has to retreat out of the circle again. After you put down the thousand-year snow lotus and retreat out of the circle, everyone will fight for it. If anyone dares to break this rule, I won't let them go! "
Fang Xuemei stared at Nangong Wushuang.
"Alright, this rule is fair and just. Of course, I will abide by it! However, I, Nangong Wushuang, have always been open and aboveboard. In your heart, am I such a tasteless person? "
Nangong Wushuang stared at Fang Xuemei's eyes, his eyes filled with sadness.
"Hmph." Fang Xuemei snorted coldly and did not say anything else.
The whirlpool slowed down and finally disappeared.
Under everyone's gaze, Nangong Wushuang picked up the thousand-year snow lotus.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and retreat out of the circle! "Nangong Wushuang urged. Everyone retreated out of the circle reluctantly.
An imperceptible sinister look flashed across Nangong Wushuang's eyes. He used a strange technique to attach a trace of inner strength to the thousand-year snow lotus.
After putting down the thousand-year snow lotus, Nangong Wushuang retreated out of the circle. Other than him, everyone else had already rushed out.
The fight started in an instant. On the way closer to the thousand-year snow lotus, the intensity of the fight was much more intense than the fight between Emei Sect and Taishan Sect.
"Get out of my way!"
Fang Xuemei roared. She, who had rushed to the front, suddenly turned around and swept out her phoenix head walking stick. Suddenly, scarlet inner strength spread out in a fan shape like the flames of a phoenix.
Even Deng Tianyang did not dare to underestimate the scarlet inner strength. When others saw it, they were even more terrified. In an instant, there were cries of alarm.
After being blocked by Fang Xuemei, the other elder of Taichi Sect, Si Yanting, was the closest to the thousand-year snow lotus.
"It belongs to my Taichi Sect!"
Si Yanting waved his hand. A dragon claw shaped inner strength rolled up the thousand-year snow lotus on the ground and flew directly into his hand. He had actually also practiced the ancient martial art, Dragon Capturing Hands!
"Bastard!"
Seeing that the thousand-year snow lotus was about to be caught by Si Yanting, a situation of extreme joy turned into sorrow.
A wave of inner strength suddenly appeared from the thousand-year snow lotus, breaking the connection between Si Yanting and the Dragon Capturing Hands.
The thousand-year snow lotus flew towards Nangong Wushuang, who was at the back. Its speed was so fast that no one could stop it. Even if the crowd did not understand what kind of ancient martial art Nangong Wushuang was using, they could guess that he must have done something when he touched the thousand-year snow lotus!
"Nangong Wushuang, you sanctimonious bastard!"
"Brother Nangong, you've gone too far!"
"What's the meaning of doing something in advance?"
"Too sinister!" The angry Fang Xuemei scolded. The others criticized one after another.
"You speak as if you're so similar. I haven't even stood firm and you've already run out. If this isn't sinister, then what is? Moreover, I've only used a lost ancient martial art. If anyone of you says that I've done something in advance, I'll treat it as slander and demand an explanation! I, Nangong Wushuang, have always been open and aboveboard. Am I a sanctimonious hypocrite? "
Holding the thousand-year snow lotus in his hand, Nangong Wushuang appeared to be very angry.
At this moment, the people from the other sects were glaring at Nangong Wushuang. The disciples of the Nangong Faction, as well as their auxiliary sects, surrounded Nangong Wushuang.
"According to the agreement, whoever obtains the thousand-year snow lotus will stop fighting. The previous snatching was considered normal. However, if anyone tries to snatch the thousand-year snow lotus when it already belongs to someone else, don't blame me, Nangong Wushuang, or even the entire Nangong Faction for killing you!"
Nangong Wushuang's sharp eyes scanned the surroundings. Although the crowd was unwilling, they did not break the rules on the surface.
Nangong Wushuang nodded his head in satisfaction. Joy appeared in his eyes. After going through so much, the thousand-year snow lotus finally belonged to the Nangong Faction. As long as no accidents happened on the mountain peak, Nangong Wushuang was confident that he could keep the thousand-year snow lotus on the way out of Sky Mountain.
However, a sudden change happened at the most unexpected moment.
Nangong Wushuang placed the thousand-year snow lotus into a specially made box. The moment he closed the box, which was when he let his guard down, Elder Cao Ying, who had been standing beside him, suddenly attacked.
"Ah …"
Nangong Wushuang screamed in agony. Blood spurted out from his wrist and flew far away! Elder Cao Ying had used the ancient sword in his hand to chop off Nangong Wushuang's hand that was holding the box.
The crowd was dumbfounded. They did not understand why Elder Cao Ying had done that.
However, compared to the crowd's stunned expressions, Elder Cao Ying, who had already planned this, did not hesitate. He immediately grabbed the box and rushed out at a terrifying speed.
A bright light shot out from Elder Wuchou's hand and turned into a whistling sound.
Elder Cao Ying's pupils instantly shrank into slits. He had never thought that a small flying dagger could be so terrifying! The feeling of being locked on by the blade and dodging it would be a mistake. He did not have time to think as he stretched out his hand to block the piercing cold light.
"Ah …"
Cao Ying cried out in pain. His arm had been hit by the flying dagger and the piercing force flew out from the other side.
Because of his injuries, Cao Ying's disguise had been broken. White smoke rose from his body and he turned into a white fox the size of a dog. If this wasn't the white fox king that had disappeared, then who could it be? And not too far away, the dead Cao Ying gradually revealed himself.
"Sou …"
Elder Wuchou shook his hand and the sharp flying dagger shot out once again.
"Courting death!"
With the White Fox King blocked, almost everyone rushed towards it. Fang Xuemei, while cursing, launched a long distance attack.
Being attacked from both sides, the White Fox King, who could not dodge the fan-shaped force, was struck. As its body flew out, it did not hesitate to throw the box in its mouth.
If it was an ordinary person who threw away a rook to save the king, it was very likely that they would exchange it for their life. However, the White Fox King was different. No one did not want its demon core!
Some people continued to rush towards the White Fox King while others aimed for the box in the air.
"The thousand-year snow lotus is mine!"
A small sect's Elder laughed maniacally. He had obtained the box containing the thousand-year snow lotus in an intense battle.
