"Senior Brother Fang Yuan, we have made a lot of money this time..."
In Devil's Breath Lake, next to a short mountain, a group of disciples from Xiaozhu Peak who were responsible for counting resources were all smiling: "This trial in Devil's Breath Lake is easier than you thought before. In the past few days, Although we encountered a few demons, we were able to kill them without any danger. In this period of time, we have even encountered fewer demons. I think we and the demons in the Shenxiao Peak territory should have been completely wiped out. , and more importantly, there are a lot of various spiritual plants, precious medicines, fairy flowers and strange fruits. They have gained more than those who entered the Demon Breath Lake trial in the previous times. In addition, our Xiaozhu Peak can gain additional Got a lot…”
Hearing what he said, all the Xiaozhu Peak disciples couldn't help but smile with joy.
Not only did they have to survive this trial smoothly, but their gains far exceeded anyone's imagination!
It seems that after this trial, no matter who the disciples of Xiaozhu Peak are, they will make a fortune...
This simply made them feel like smoke was rising from their ancestral graves!
Not to mention those ordinary disciples, even the more stable ones like Junior Sister Xiao Qiao, and the fools like Guan Ao who were recovering from serious injuries, all knew that they were about to get rich, and their faces were full of smiles and excitement. , almost overflowing from the bones!
But Fang Yuan was not happy at all after hearing these words.
He was currently standing on a barren mountain, looking up at the sky for a long time.
Junior Sister Xiao Qiao felt a little surprised. At first, she thought Fang Yuan was thinking about how to conduct the following trial, but now that the general plan has been decided, there is no need to waste time reasoning about it. Besides, whatever Fang Yuan was thinking about before, he usually I was walking around with my hands behind my back, and I started to worry about it. It was so rare to stare at the sky like this for half an hour at a time.
"Senior Brother Fang Yuan, did something happen?"
She couldn't help but move closer to Fang Yuan and asked in a low voice.
Fang Yuan was silent for a long time before replying: "Have you ever felt that... this Demonic Breath Lake is different?"
Junior Sister Xiao Qiao was stunned for a moment, and looked around. It was still that day, and there was black mist everywhere. The black mist was filled with wisps of heavy demonic breath, all driven by the minds of the Immortal Sect disciples. Only the spiritual light talisman can resist it. However, although this kind of black mist is terrifying, it has existed since the beginning. Occasionally, the wind is blowing, which is also the most common, which makes her suspicious...
"...Did you discover something?"
She couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know either!"
Fang Yuan pondered for a long time and then said: "But I feel very uncomfortable. This Devil's Breath Lake seems to be different from when we first came in. The sky is darker, and the evil wind appears more often. More importantly, … There are fewer monsters!”
"Darker sky? More windy?"
Junior Sister Xiao Qiao has never thought about these two questions. After all, there is magic breath blocking the sky above the Devil's Breath Lake. It is normal for it to be darker than other places. Fang Yuan felt darker than before. That was It must be because they went deep into the Devil's Breath Lake. As for the increase in the evil wind, it may be that the terrain is different from before. As for the decrease in monsters... She couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Don't you think it's a good thing that there are fewer monsters?"
Fang Yuan still frowned and thought for a while before saying: "Before entering the Demon's Breath Lake, I made a lot of preparations, including some methods to deal with the most difficult and powerful demons, but I didn't expect that after entering the Demon's Breath Lake , this type of method was actually not used, the most powerful monster we encountered was just the demon bear we encountered when we discovered Galan Grass... "
“… It’s really strong, but it still doesn’t meet my expectations!”
Junior Sister Xiao Qiao had just been made a little suspicious by him, and she laughed after hearing this: "Senior Brother Fang Yuan, you saw it in the scriptures recorded by the previous immortal sect seniors, but you may want to know more In the past, there were few disciples of the Immortal Sect and few people entered the Demonic Breath Lake. The number of monsters they could kill was limited. After every trial, there were always some monsters left. After ten years of growth, they naturally became more powerful. Powerful, which is why they always encountered some monsters that were difficult to deal with before!"
"But it's different now. In the past three hundred years, the Immortal Sect disciples have collected more and more batches every three years, and more and more people have entered the Demon Breath Lake trial. There are not even enough resources to grab them. This is how the territory was divided. In this case, if the monsters come in every ten years, all the monsters will be killed. We are taking advantage of our ancestors. Of course, we will not encounter those powerful monsters, because These monsters were all killed by our ancestors long before they grew up..."
"What you said makes sense!"
After listening to Junior Sister Xiao Qiao's words, Fang Yuan nodded.
He said nothing more and let Junior Sister Xiao Qiao go about her business.
But he himself still felt a little depressed.
He naturally understood what Junior Sister Xiao Qiao said. In fact, he thought so too, but somehow, the longer he stayed in the Devil's Breath Lake, the more he felt that something was wrong, and that there seemed to be some danger about to strike. Roll it over...
… But he didn’t know what danger it would be and how to deal with it!
In particular, although he felt that way, he could not find any signs to confirm this feeling!
"Am I really too worried?"
Even Fang Yuan couldn't help but be a little shaken at this moment, and asked himself secretly.
"Fang...Senior Brother Fang Yuan..."
At this moment, Fang Yuan heard a trembling voice.
He turned around hurriedly and saw Hou Gui'er. Surprisingly, this guy was not squatting at the foot of the mountain watching the female disciples coming and going. Instead, he had climbed up the mountain at some point and was looking at Fang Yuan with twinkling eyes. , the expression on his face was both frightened and worried.
Fang Yuan's heart moved and he asked quickly: "What do you have to say?"
Hou Guier swallowed a big mouthful of saliva and then said with some difficulty: "I... I'm a little scared!"
Fang Yuan's face darkened: "What are you afraid of?"
Hou Gui'er was a little afraid of Fang Yuan, but he still said with a trembling voice: "I don't know, but I... I... am just scared!"
When Fang Yuan heard this, he took a deep breath and made a decision immediately.
"Brothers, please obey the order and leave!"
He suddenly shouted loudly: "Both Xiaozhu Peak disciples and Shenxiao Peak disciples, please leave immediately!"
This sudden order immediately shocked the disciples of Xiaozhu Peak and Shenxiao Peak. They were confused and puzzled. They rushed over and gathered around Fang Yuan, asking: " Senior Brother Fang Yuan, why do you want to leave if you are so good?"
"There are a lot of elixirs in this area, and we haven't collected them all yet..."
"Where are you going in a hurry? But what happened?"
Faced with the confusion of the disciples, Fang Yuan knew that it was too late to explain anything at this time.
He didn't know how to explain it. He and Hou Gui'er only had intuitive concerns. They were afraid that if they were dissatisfied with the disciples, it would be better not to explain it. So he just said with a cold face: "No need." If you ask any questions, rush to Bahuang Yuntai immediately!"
"What? Why are you rushing to Bahuang Yuntai now?"
Fang Yuan's order shocked all the disciples.
They will only rush to Bahuang Yuntai when the trial ends ten days later, and use the teleportation formation to leave Demon Breath Lake. But it is still early, and the territory of Xiaozhu Peak has been cleared. , there is still a large area of Shenxiao Peak’s territory that has not yet been cleared. What is the point of rushing to Bahuang Yuntai at this time? Are you just abandoning the mission of Shenxiao Peak
"You...don't you still hate us at Shenxiao Peak and don't want us to complete the trial?"
Some people even had such thoughts in their hearts and secretly looked at Fang Yuan with some hatred.
"I don't have time to explain so much to you..."
Fang Yuan slowly rubbed the center of his eyebrows. Elder Yun once placed a talisman on his eyebrows. It was usually invisible, but when faced with a crisis, it could save Fang Yuan's life. Now, for some reason, this talisman has appeared faintly. It is a little hot, but it has not been fully manifested. It is really a strange thing that I have never seen before...
And this feeling made Fang Yuan feel even heavier.
"I just want to tell you that a crisis may hit you soon. I can't take care of any tasks now. I have to rush to Bahuang Yuntai immediately. If you believe me, then follow me. If you don't believe me, then follow me." Just stay here and continue the trial, I won’t accompany you!”
Fang Yuan's words caused an uproar.
The Xiaozhu Peak disciples had no objections, and no one dared to raise objections to Fang Yuan. Regardless of whether they understood it or not, they immediately started packing their things.
The disciples of Shenxiao Peak were a little angry, and some even said loudly: "What do you mean there may be a crisis? The Devil's Breath Lake is extremely dangerous, isn't there a crisis that may strike at any time? Our Shenxiao Peak's The trial is not over yet, how can we just leave and let them go if they don't want to accompany us? We won't give them another 30% of the fortune we found alone, right?"
"But... Judging from his appearance, it doesn't look like he's lying. If something really happens..."
"We at Shenxiao Peak have a lot of background. Is there any danger that we can't handle?"
"Yes, even if you take some risks, you still have to complete the trial..."
Just when the Shenxiao Peak disciples had not discussed a result, the Xiaozhufeng disciples led by Fang Yuan had packed their things and were ready to set off. At this time, even Ling Hongbo, the current leader of the Shenxiao Peak disciples, could not say After subduing all the disciples of Shenxiao Peak, just when she was about to use strong methods to force them to obey, a disciple of Xiaozhu Peak urgently sent a verbal message!
"Senior Brother Yan Ji said that everyone on Shenxiao Peak should follow the lead of Senior Brother Fang Yuan. Those who disobey orders will be punished according to the sect rules!"
