745 -743: Children Make Choices, I Want It All!
[Second Update]
Everyone was getting restless.
But no one made a move immediately, after all, there were numerous powerhouses present.
Everyone wanted to obtain more treasures, but if anyone dared to make the first move, they would inevitably become the target of the masses.
The safest method was to wait until everyone acted together and then fish in troubled waters.
Yue Shanchuan urgently transmitted a message: “Yi, which one shall we rush for first later?”
“Don’t rush!”
Xiao Yi’s lips curved slightly upward, revealing a hint of a playful, cold smirk as his mocking glance swept over Hu Junyi, Ye Ling, and others.
In his view…
The first ones who couldn’t hold back and would make a move, would certainly be those two.
Sure enough.
Hu Junyi and Ye Ling exchanged glances and spoke in unison, “Half for each household!”
The two nodded simultaneously.
Swish!
Swish!
Powerful figures from Nantian Holy Institute and Nantian Holy Land instantly split into two groups, dashing toward the rocks scattered with treasures.
Among those present at the scene…
The strengths of these two groups were undoubtedly the most formidable.
Seeing Nantian Holy Institute and Nantian Holy Land attempting to swallow all the treasures for themselves, a host of strong cultivators revealed expressions of anger as they bellowed, “Your greed is unsightly!”
“Brothers, we must unite first to snatch the treasures, then we can negotiate how to divide them!”
“That’s right, if we don’t unite now, all the treasures will end up theirs…”
Great rewards beckon brave men.
At worst, the stones contained seventh-layer spirit weapons and medicinal pills, and among them were even eighth-layer spirit weapons and battlegear.
Any of these treasures could significantly enhance their strength, or even be exchanged for a life-extending spirit in the right place.
Faced with such treasures, who would willingly give up?
In an instant.
Apart from the strong ones from Nantian Holy Land and Nantian Holy Institute, other strong figures also formed two camps.
They too joined the fray for the treasures.
Yi, however, remained unhurried and did not participate, which left Yue Shanchuan and others feeling perplexed, “Are we really not going to make a move to fight for them?
These are rare treasures…”
Eighth-layer spirit weapons and medicinal pills.
These were opportunities not to be missed!
Perhaps higher-level treasures might exist within Cloud Dream Temple, but remember, the task of everyone present was to go to the Cloud Dream Temple and break the barrier.
Once the constraint of the barrier was lost.
Elder Tianku, Nantian Lie, Yang Dingtian, and Su Xinghe, these super-experts of the Longevity Secret Realm, if they got involved, what chance would the rest have?
Xiao Yi chuckled, saying, “Don’t panic!”
Just then…
A Dharma Manifestation Realm Peak expert with an extremely quick movement technique arrived at the Treasure Rock before Hu Junyi and the others.
He was not greedy.
Fully aware that he absolutely could not touch the eighth-layer treasures lest he provoke the siege of Hu Junyi and others, he opted for a second-best choice and picked up a seventh-layer spirit weapon.
With the weapon in hand, the man immediately fled into the distance, shouting, “I only want this one, I’ll take nothing else!”
Seeing this, Hu Junyi and the others didn’t go after this man for the sake of a single seventh-layer spirit weapon.
Wu Jian was anxious.
He also favored using a spear, and the very seventh-layer spirit weapon that had just been grabbed was the treasure he had dreamt of obtaining.
Now that it had fallen into someone else’s hands, his expression turned rather unsightly, “Are we really going to just watch the treasures slip away before our eyes?”
Xiao Yi spoke indifferently, “If you want to make a move, I won’t stop you!”
After hesitating for a moment.
Wu Jian clenched his teeth hard, “Sorry then!”
Swish!
Wu Jian immediately dashed toward Treasure Rock.
Xiao Yi watched Yue Shanchuan and Chai Yi with a smile, “Aren’t you two going?”
Yue Shanchuan rolled his eyes, “If you don’t go, I won’t either!”
Chai Yi hesitated for a moment, then said, “I trust you!”
Xiao Yi burst into laughter, his smile gradually fading as he slightly cocked his mouth, “Don’t worry, these treasures won’t escape from the palm of my hand!”
He crossed his arms over his chest, quietly watching the scramble for treasures on Treasure Rock.
It was like watching a group of clowns slaughtering each other.
“This treasure is mine…”
“I saw it first…”
“Whoever gets it owns it…”
“Die…”
In the face of the treasure, human nature was undoubtedly exposed. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
Everyone showed their ugliest side.
Even faced with their sworn brothers of the past, in the presence of the ultimate treasure, they would turn into the most venomous of Asuras and cruelly kill the brothers they once considered as close as their own limbs.
The law of the jungle.
This is an everlasting principle!
Hu Junyi, Ye Ling, and the mysterious youth from Nantian Holy Institute snatched treasures with the greatest speed, monopolizing as much as seventy percent of the eighth-layer elemental weapons and medicinal ingredients and pills.
Anyone bold enough to contend with them was walking a path to death.
For a time, any treasure they set their sights on was not dared to be contested by others.
The mysterious youth struck like lightning, snatching the eighth-layer elemental weapon armor from Hu Junyi’s hands, which was the most precious treasure on Treasure Rock.
Armor in hand.
Ye Ling instantly arrived by his side.
It was two against one.
Hu Junyi’s face turned ugly, he gritted his teeth, about to speak, when he saw that Xiao Yi had been watching the whole time without making a move for the treasures and couldn’t help frowning, “Xiao Yi isn’t making a move for the treasures?”
Ye Ling and the others felt a sinking feeling in their hearts.
Recalling how they had been crushed by Xiao Yi along the way, it seemed that Xiao Yi had always been confident, holding the winning cards.
“Could there be a trick here?”
“You guys are scaring yourselves, could these treasures really be poisoned?” Hu Junyi suddenly said.
However…
No sooner had he finished speaking than his expression dramatically changed.
Within the crowd.
Some began to stiffen, their figures frozen in place.
Lifting up their trouser legs, they looked in horror, “What… what’s going on?
Why have my legs turned to stone?”
“My hands have turned to stone, too…”
“No, my chest has turned to stone…”
“What on earth is happening?”
Everyone wore a face of terror.
Hu Junyi, Ye Ling, and the others’ expressions changed abruptly as they incredulously looked over their own bodies and indeed, they too had succumbed silently.
Any strong person who had touched the treasures of Treasure Rock had begun to petrify, their body surfaces covered with a layer of blue stone skin that was spreading to other areas.
It was only a matter of time before their entire bodies turned into stone statues.
“What on earth is going on?”
“Could these treasures really be poisoned after all?”
“Could it be just an illusion?”
The crowd murmured among themselves.
A glint of cold light flashed through Hu Junyi’s eyes as he sent out a palm strike, breaking off the arm of a strong person beside him, whose hands had petrified.
The severed arm turned into powder just like stone, but the unpetrified shoulder spouted out scalding blood.
His face twisted in extreme agony as he howled, “My hand…”
“Shut up!”
Annoyed, Hu Junyi roared and his palm thrummed, emitting a burst of blue light, and with a bang, he smashed the man’s head to pieces.
His own legs had already numbed, turned into a piece of blue stone.
In their moment of despair,
The mysterious youth from the Nantian Holy Institute turned to Xiao Yi and said in a deep voice, “Xiao Yi, you didn’t compete for the treasures, could it be that you knew there was something wrong with them?”
Xiao Yi nodded his head.
The youth narrowed his eyes, underneath his cloak a pair of eyes gleamed with resolution, “If you knew all along, you must have a way to save us, right?
If you save me, I’ll share half of what I got today with you…”
“I’m willing to…”
“I’ll give you half as well…”
The crowd spoke up one after another.
Even the proud Hu Junyi was now speaking with a darkened face, “I can also give you half, Xiao Yi, help me…”
Faced with everyone’s eyes, Xiao Yi flashed a grin, but that smile in the eyes of the crowd was like a demon baring its fangs, chilling to the bone, “Children make choices, I want all the treasures in your hands!”
