Boom!
Luo Tian's gigantic ape palm slammed heavily onto the black mist dragon's head. The black mist dragon's head trembled and with a roar, it continued charging forward!
"Peng!" Luo Tian pressed down on the dragon's head as his body slid backwards from the immense impact. Finally, he was pressed against the wall by the dragon's head.
Luo Tian forcefully suppressed his surging lifeblood and with a roar, all his muscles expanded!
"Shatter!"
The ancient Gigantic Demon Ape bloodline in his body was pushed to its limits, but Luo Tian still could not do a thing to the black dragon. The black dragon's body shook violently, causing the wall behind Luo Tian to crack!
Even Luo Tian was at a disadvantage?
Upon seeing this scene, the Phoenix Firmiana State disciples felt their hearts tighten. On the seventh level of Black Wind Valley, a flood dragon condensed from black mist already had such might!
Luo Tian and Ran Yu could not withstand it!
At this moment, Gu Luo had also jumped down to the seventh level. Taking advantage of the intense battle between Luo Tian and the black dragon, he charged into the depths of the black mist with his thin body that resembled a ghost!
Gu Luo wanted to take this opportunity to capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake!
"That punk!"
The Phoenix Firmiana State disciples had already begun cursing. Luo Tian was blocking the black dragon, but Gu Luo wanted to take the opportunity to succeed. Such an act of profiting from a burning house was naturally despised by warriors.
Of course, no matter how much they despised it, they could only watch. Other than the three of them, no one else could enter the seventh level.
Gu Luo's speed was just too fast. Luo Tian, who was trapped by the black dragon, could not stop him. In an instant, Gu Luo had charged into the black mist. And in the black mist, the tiny Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake was leisurely swimming around, as though it was having fun in Black Wind Valley.
Seeing Gu Luo charge at it, the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake did not panic. It was unknown if it was an illusion, but it actually revealed a strange sinister smile.
The smile of a snake made one's hair stand on end.
"Hiss!"
The Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake spat out its arrow-like tongue and shot straight at Gu Luo. Gu Luo wrapped his withered palm with the power of his bloodline and suddenly grabbed at the tiny snake.
"Puah!"
Fresh blood splattered, and a red mist burst out from within the black mist. Gu Luo groaned and clutched his withered palm. His hand had actually been pierced through by the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake, leaving a bloody hole.
This …
People could clearly see that Gu Luo's physical toughness was terrifying. Previously, in the fourth and fifth levels of Black Wind Valley, Gu Luo had used his body to withstand the black gas. Now, even with Gu Luo's physical toughness, a bloody hole had been instantly pierced through him. How was the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake to be caught?
Swish swish swish!
The Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake shuttled through the air and swallowed all the blood mist that Gu Luo had spewed out. At this moment, the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake changed its target and charged towards Gu Luo's body.
Gu Luo's expressionless face finally revealed a look of fear. He leaped up and leaped towards the sixth level of Black Wind Valley.
Luo Tian and Ran Yu also noticed that the situation was dire. Luo Tian forcefully circulated the power of his bloodline, forcing the black dragon to retreat. Together with Ran Yu, Luo Tian leaped back to the sixth level of Black Wind Valley.
After the three of them left, the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake resumed its leisurely state. It swam in the black fog, appearing and disappearing from time to time.
Three top figures from the Fire Cloud State and Phoenix Firmiana State had attacked together, but they ended up returning in failure.
Upon seeing this scene, the Luo clan disciples present felt their hearts skip a beat. The seventh level was too ruthless.
From the looks of it, Luo Tian, Ran Yu, and Gu Luo were definitely unable to capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake. There were still more than ten days left. It would be difficult, or even impossible, for the three of them to use more than ten days to reach the point where they could capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake alone!
Unless … they cooperated!
It was actually possible for the three of them to cooperate. One of them could fend off the black dragon, while the other two could capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake!
If ordinary Luo clan disciples could think of cooperating, Luo Tian and company obviously thought of it too.
But if they cooperated … even if they captured the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake, who would the spoils of war be given to?
Could the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake be split equally? There was no way to split such a spiritual object equally.
Upon thinking of this, Luo Tian suddenly had a thought. He looked up into the sky and saw Cang Mang sitting there. There seemed to be an unfathomable smile on his face.
This made Luo Tian's heart skip a beat. Could this old sly fox have deliberately arranged such a thing?
Cang Mang knew that with the trio's strength, it was impossible for them to capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake alone. Yet, he had allowed them to see it without being able to eat it.
Geniuses that came from different states were ostracized to begin with. In fact, ignoring the fact that they came from different states, even if they were in the same state, everyone would do it for themselves. They would not tolerate sharing anything with others.
Cang Mang knew this, but he had designed a situation where they had to cooperate.
Without cooperation, no one could obtain it. But if they did cooperate, how were they to split it?
This was a difficult problem that Cang Mang had deliberately given them!
"Why is Cang Mang doing this?" Ran Yu secretly pondered. Maybe Cang Mang was trying to tell the Luo clan disciples that the Luo clan needed intense competition, but it also needed cooperation?
Or perhaps, Cang Mang simply wanted to see himself, Luo Tian and Gu Luo put on a good show of mutual deception. In the end, the strongest person would be the one who grasped the opportunity to capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake amidst the chaos.
However, regardless of which situation Cang Mang wanted to see, it did not matter. What was important was that Luo Tian, Ran Yu and company knew that after they matured, they would one day have to explore mystic realms. And when that happened, they would face a similar situation.
A group of people chasing after a treasure, no one had the ability to monopolize it. While they had to cooperate, they had to be wary of their teammates, who were trying to conspire against each other.
"This old fox is playing this game with us." Ran Yu's face sank as he looked at Gu Luo and Luo Tian.
Gu Luo remained silent. He still had a corpse's face, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
However, Luo Tian's expression flickered. Clearly, he had the same thoughts as Ran Yu.
Noticing Ran Yu look over, Luo Tian sneered and said, "I know what you are thinking. I don't have the habit of cooperating with others. The three of us will act together and rely on our own abilities. As long as we do not hold each other back, it will be fine. Let's see who has the ability to capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake!"
Seeing Luo Tian's arrogance, Ran Yu also sneered and said, "I have never thought of cooperating with you. We will rely on our own abilities to see who will emerge victorious!"
Cang Mang sat quietly in the void, watching all of this with indifference.
He naturally knew that be it Luo Tian or Ran Yu, they were both proud people. How could they tolerate sharing the treasure with others?
Furthermore, there were still more than ten days before the Black Wind Valley trial ended. Luo Tian and Ran Yu wanted to vie for it, but it would be interesting later on when they realized that it was impossible.
Cang Mang did not expect these proud geniuses to sincerely cooperate with others. He only wanted to see how these geniuses would handle such matters, and how they would prevent others from secretly sabotaging them despite their unwillingness to cooperate. Such matters were also very interesting.
Cang Mang wanted to see the outcome of the matter. This was probably the only fun he had while leading a bunch of juniors in such a boring trial.
With this thought in mind, Cang Mang suddenly had a thought. He lifted his eyelids and looked towards the second level of Black Wind Valley.
