An Lin looked behind him. The mob of bone ghosts probably couldn’t catch them now.

He breathed a sigh of relief. “Phew… Only lunatics would fight those bone ghosts head-on! I just didn’t expect for that Prince Chi Wu to sell his teammates out even quicker than us…”

“He’s a member of the dragon tribe and they all referred to him as a prince. Could it be that he’s some prince of the Dragon Court? Woof!” Da Bai flew atop the wind and slowly voiced out his speculation.

An Lin nodded. “He’s most likely a prince of the Dragon Court. After all, the Dragon King has so many children. His sons and daughters could probably make up almost two soccer teams. It wouldn’t surprise me if he actually is some prince. In any case, it’s got nothing to do with us. We need to make haste and find that independent realm.”

They kept flying and swerved around all the spatial fractures that they came across. They didn’t want to risk getting injured by the deadly blades of wind which gushed out from these fractures. As they flew, they also encountered some bone ghosts. However, these weren’t in mobs so An Lin casually disposed of them.

“I remember that the entrance to that realm was in the northwest region of these ruins,” An Lin said slowly as he sifted through the images in his memory. “It’s next to a gigantic skull.”

“Big Brother An, why don’t we treasure hunt here as well?” Da Bai’s eyes glimmered brightly as he asked this eagerly.

An Lin stroked his chin and eventually nodded. “This… can be done! However, we’ll leave it till after we find the Ancient Purple Vine and True Blood of the Winged Dragon.”

Their failure to obtain inheritances at the Winter Dragon Tomb scarred them for a long time. Thus, it was due time for them to seek out some great opportunities.

After flying for a while, the light in this realm dimmed for some reason.

Boom…

The deep rumble of thunder sounded in the distance. It sounded like the angry roar of a wild beast.

“Be careful, guys. The Yin energy ahead is very strong,” An Lin warned as he unsheathed his Evil-Slaying Sword.

Sure enough, it wasn’t long before a black skeleton-like evil spirit lunged toward them.

It was sliced into two before it could even come to within thirty feet of An Lin.

However, this was merely the beginning. Soon, six evil spirits snarled and lunged toward them.

At this moment, wind blades and black flames swept toward the evil spirits and ripped their bodies to shreds.

“Say, there weren’t any evil spirits back when Shen Yin came here! Woof!” Da Bai grumbled after seeing the unending waves of evil spirits descending upon them.

“It’s been almost ten thousand years,” An Lin said indifferently. “It’s only normal that there are some changes.”

He felt that there was nothing strange about this.

At this moment, Xiao Chou noticed some plant in the distance and exclaimed, “Look over there, next to that large boulder! There’s a blade of grass which is emitting a faint blue glow!”

“Heh, it’s definitely something valuable!” An Lin’s eyes also lit up.

He could sense the energy fluctuations emitted by that blade of grass even from a long distance away.

An Lin didn’t hesitate. He immediately flew toward the blue grass and plucked it out from the ground.

Divine Inspection Technique!

“Serene Attaining Grass, an object of extreme yin. Grows in places with dense atmospheres of death. Demonic blood forms its foundations. Attains initial success after three hundred years, and attains phenomenal success after three thousand years. This is a ‘phenomenal success’, first rank immortal grass.”

There was a bright glimmer in An Lin’s eyes, and he was full of excitement.

This is a first-rank immortal grass…! We’ve truly struck gold this time!

He didn’t hesitate and immediately placed the Serene Attaining Grass into his storage ring.

Then, he shifted his gaze to a nearby location. “Huh? The rumbling thunder seems to be coming from over there,” he remarked curiously. “Could it be that an extremely rare treasure is being born into the world?”

In order not to attract attention, An Lin, Da Bai, and Xiao Chou decided to travel over by foot.

They drew in a sharp breath when they saw the scene in front of them.

Gasp…

“Just how f*cking many evil spirits are there?” An Lin exclaimed in surprise.

Xiao Chou grimaced. “At least tens of thousands…”

Before them was a stretch of crimson-colored land.

On this land, the thickly dotted evil spirits blotted out heaven and earth. They drifted around this space and emitted a violent and sinister aura. This sight was enough to make one’s flesh crawl.

“Big Brother An, look over there! There seems to be a blue halo which is emitting lightning, woof!” Da Bai motioned with his eyes.

An Lin looked toward the northeast region of this crimson land. The evil spirits were packed especially densely there, and they almost looked like a slate of squirming black mass. There were barely any gaps in between the evil spirits.

However, he still managed to look past this mob of evil spirits and was able to vaguely discern the blue halo which was emitting lightning.

“It looks like someone is trapped there,” An Lin exclaimed softly.

“Are we going to rescue them?” Xiao Chou asked.

An Lin pursed his lips. “They’re neither relatives nor friends,” An Lin said while shaking his head. “What’s the point of saving them?”

Then, his eyes lit up as if he had discovered something. “Look over there! There seems to be a treasure three hundred meters north of the blue halo!”

Xiao Chou and Da Bai both looked over. Sure enough, they could vaguely see a small tree which was burning with crimson-colored flames…

“Gundam One and Gundam Two can lead the charge. Xiao Chou and Da Bai, you two protect me. Now that the large mob of evil spirits is attracted to that blue halo, we’ll seize the opportunity and grab that small tree. After that, we’ll flee!” An Lin was in high spirits as he issued these commands.

Xiao Chou and Da Bai were a bit speechless as they nodded. They felt that their master was stooping lower and lower.

At this moment, inside the blue halo.

A pretty young female who was dressed in white was currently gripping the lightning bead in her hands tightly and trying her best to maintain the defensive spell formation.

Standing next to her were two young females who were dressed in black maid uniforms. They were pale with fright and their eyes were full of despair.

“Princess Yin Yu, what are we going to do?” one of the black-clothed maids asked shakily. “The energy contained within this Extreme Lightning Formation can only last for four hours. The time is almost up…”

Once the spell formation ran out of energy, what awaited them was the gnashing jaws of the tens of thousands of evil spirits. That was even more terrifying than dying a swift death. Once the spell formation failed, perhaps they would all choose to commit suicide straight away.

The white-clothed female gritted her teeth and tried her best to remain composed. “Don’t worry, my elder brother will definitely come to rescue us. Hold on for a little longer. Perhaps they’re almost here!”

“He knew that we were trapped here right from the beginning, yet he still hasn’t come to rescue us. He’s clearly a coward and doesn’t dare risk his life to come over here!” the other black-clothed maid fumed.

Yin Yu shook her head. She didn’t give up hope and said, “Perhaps… he’s thinking up a rescue strategy right now?”

Right at this moment, a laser beam streaked past the blue halo.

Boom!

The scorching hot and powerful beam incinerated all evil spirits that it came into contact with.

The three young females within the light halo all shuddered. They looked toward where this laser beam had come from.

“I said so, didn’t I?” Yin Yu sobbed. “Big Brother Chi Wu will definitely come to rescue us…”

After seeing the hope of survival and after seeing her elder brother risk his life to come and save her, Yin Yu finally let loose her pent-up emotions. Tears rolled down her cheeks.

Boom!

Another laser beam penetrated through the air.

Immediately afterward, two sword-wielding figures appeared before her.

Behind these two silver figures were a handsome male, a dog, and a masked monkey.

Seeing these figures, the three females were once again stunned.

What’s going on? It’s not Prince Chi Wu?!

Princess Yin Yu’s eyes glimmered brightly and numerous speculations formed in her mind.

Are they helpers that Big Brother Chi Wu found? Or are they kind-hearted cultivators who coincidentally entered the ancient battleground and came to our rescue after seeing us trapped?

Speaking of which, they truly are really powerful! They actually managed to carve a path out of this densely packed evil spirit mob. What’s more, the sword-wielding male in the center is really handsome…

Yin Yu’s face flushed red. The image of this hero fighting against tens of thousands of enemies and charging toward them was deeply etched into her mind.

However… the direction of their advance seemed a little off…

Immediately afterward, the silver mechanical puppets, male Sword Immortal, dog, and monkey all scraped past their blue halo. They didn’t so much as spare the three females a glance. Instead, they forged straight ahead toward the north.

Within the blue halo, the three females were wide-eyed with shock. The fell into a long and uncomfortable silence.

Princess Yin Yu shuddered slightly, and her heart sank. Her breathing became labored and uneven. “Their aim is… the Fire Blood Divine Tree?!”

The two maids nodded stiffly. The hero didn’t save the damsel in distress.

Those people had the exact same aim as them. They were also after that Fire Blood Divine Tree.

Their emotions had truly been taken on a rollercoaster ride…

In fact, those people might’ve even come in the hopes that they, the trapped females, would attract a large portion of the evil spirit mob. Seizing this opportunity, they would then snatch the treasure.

Princess Yin Yu didn’t become discouraged. This was her last hope of being rescued.

“Fellow cultivator, please rescue us! I beg you! We’ll definitely reward you greatly!”

Her voice was very loud, and the male a few hundred meters away could definitely hear her.

An Lin naturally heard her pleas for help. However, they could barely guarantee their own safety amid this mob of evil spirits. What reason would they have to rescue those trapped females? An Lin dashed before the flaming tree and pulled with all his might!

Sh*t! Why is it so hard to pull out?!

Princess Yin Yu saw that they completely ignored her words and didn’t even shoot a glance back. They were only focused on trying to uproot the Fire Blood Divine Tree.

They didn’t reply at all. What could she do?

Since when had Princess Yin Yu ever faced such despair and indifference? She was so angry that she almost burst into tears.

Meanwhile, An Lin and the others were still trying to uproot the tree…
