Chapter 379: The Mutated Milo Flower, Lu Yuehan

Zhao Xing did not know that Zeng Zhuo of the Yuedan Marquis Mansion had led men into the third barrier and had been blasted away by the experimental mushrooms.

The entire third barrier was extremely vast, resembling a rectangular plain. He and Jing Yan had opened a narrow, long path through it vertically, like a dividing line—the mushroom clones were discarded on both sides of this line.

The mushroom clones had nothing to do with him.

Furthermore, by the time Zeng Zhuo arrived, Zhao Xing had already gone to resolve trouble for Jing Yan.

After consuming the Earth God Pill to change his aura and form, Zhao Xing, with the help of the Three Gods Life Palace, was equivalent to another tomb raider entering this place—using bug-exploiting methods to farm gifts from the tomb owner was considered a basic operation.

However, once Zhao Xing obtained the Essence-Stripping Divine Ability, he focused on studying it and had not gone to take anything else for over two years.

Having obtained the Self-School's divine ability, he had already taken advantage; he left the rest of the wool-gathering to Jing Yan.

"Normally speaking, if Jing Yan is just gathering wool, he shouldn't encounter trouble."

"Unless he wants to eat mutton."

"I wonder what kind of trouble he encountered."

Zhao Xing traveled quickly, and when he arrived before the tomb palace, the facts were indeed as he had expected.

Jing Yan appeared before the palace on the east side, his body mostly buried in the ground, with only a dead man's head exposed.

"Old brother, what is your situation..."

Zhao Xing did not rush forward, only transmitting his voice from afar.

"As you can see, I have been planted in the ground." Jing Yan was in a dangerous situation, but his tone was quite calm.

As expected of an Imperial citizen, he took life and death lightly.

"I bypassed the tree-man statue of this palace, wanting to go inside and take a look."

"As a result, that tree-man statue suddenly sank into the ground, pulling me down with it."

Jing Yan recounted the process.

Zhao Xing said helplessly: "Didn't I warn you to be cautious? The eastern main tomb is the strongest one."

Jing Yan said: "The problem is that I only manipulated a Dao-soldier puppet to go look, yet it locked up my real body instead."

"Meaning you were hit by a divine ability similar to Displacement?"

"Yes, something like that."

Jing Yan nodded: "I was standing about as far from the position as you are now, when suddenly the soil seemed to come alive. The soil and the space above it swapped, and my real body and my Dao-soldier puppet also swapped."

Zhao Xing nodded; fortunately, Jing Yan could still send a Dao-soldier puppet to call him.

Between the third and fourth barriers, they had left a clear, narrow passage.

"Let me take a look first." Zhao Xing began to observe.

Jing Yan continued:

"I can't get out now; there are three forces hindering me."

"First is the soil. The soil seems to have solidified, possessing extremely strong compressive ability, causing me to be unable to break free, and most of my Dao-soldiers cannot be used."

"Second is the tree-man statue underground. It has entangled my legs, having physical contact with me, continuously interrupting me from gathering spiritual power."

"Third is the powerful gravitational pull of the earth vein. The more I struggle, the deeper I sink. At first, I tried to cast Wandering God Heaven, but I couldn't fly out."

While Jing Yan was speaking, Zhao Xing had already checked the sky and the ground through different methods and angles.

A moment later, his expression became somewhat heavy.

Looking from underground, Zhao Xing discovered that Jing Yan's feet had completely turned to wood, eroded by countless wriggling roots.

He wasn't entangled; he was parasitized!

The tree-man statue underground was no longer a statue; from its hands, a parasitic seed had appeared.

【Name: Milo Flower (Mutated)】

【Quality: Rare】

【Realm: Third Realm (Minor)】

【Status: Peak Period】

【Talent · Dormancy: The Milo Flower possesses strong survival capabilities. In extreme environments, it can enter dormancy in a state of withered life. Upon encountering a suitable environment, it will rapidly radiate vitality and break out of its shell.】

【Talent · Parasitism: As a parasitic seed, the Milo Flower can synchronize with the origin of a living body, silently parasitizing within the life form.】

【Divine Ability · Source Poison (Minor): An abnormal talent, generated acquiredly. Source Poison can target both the physical body and the soul simultaneously, eventually completely controlling the host.】

When Zhao Xing came up, his expression was undisguisedly ugly.

Jing Yan asked strangely: "Brother, your expression is so ugly, am I beyond saving?"

"Not quite." Zhao Xing said: "You still have half a life left."

"That exaggerated?" Jing Yan said in surprise: "I feel like I'm just one last burst of strength away from breaking free. If you help me a little, I can get out."

"It's not that easy. The tree-man statue beneath you is not a dead object, but a living one. It is a Milo Flower that has been dormant for who knows how long." Zhao Xing sighed.

The Milo Flower is a descendant of the Flower God Luoke clan, a rare parasitic species, also known as the 'Corpse-Sleeping Flower'.

The mature period is the first realm, and the peak period is the second realm.

This one is currently at the third realm!

This means it was modified by the tomb owner during their lifetime with Self-School divine abilities, which is why it could break the shackles of life and reach the Minor Divine Ability realm.

The first two talents are not scary; what is scary is the third one, Source Poison.

"To be able to cultivate such a plant troop type, this Self-School Farmer, even if not at the Great Divine Ability realm, is very close." Zhao Xing thought to himself.

In his past life's memories, he only knew this was a third-realm tomb, but he didn't know if it was a Great Divine Ability or Minor Divine Ability realm, and official information didn't specify.

Including this Milo Flower, it didn't appear in official information either.

So Zhao Xing hadn't insisted on opening the coffin earlier; as long as there were gains, it was fine. After all, he knew some things were not the full picture.

"A third-realm Self-School Farmer's tomb, it truly lives up to its reputation. I can still be saved, right?" Jing Yan asked.

"Yes." Zhao Xing nodded; the significance of a teammate was reflected at this moment. "You just happened to run into me; anyone else wouldn't be able to save you."

"Do as I say. Don't exert force anymore. You seem to be able to use spiritual power now, but in reality, half of it is already under the Milo Flower's control."

"It is synchronizing with your spiritual power origin. If you exert force again, it can completely understand you through your spiritual power circulation and eventually completely control you."

Jing Yan was still half-doubting: "How come this is like a Mechanist's quantum intrusion? Have I been intruded upon?"

"If I don't move now, can it not completely intrude upon me?"

Zhao Xing shook his head: "Impossible. It releases toxins, making you feel pain, forcing you to move."

"You must endure. If there is a specific progress to the intrusion, your body's origin is already nearly 50% controlled by the Milo Flower."

Jing Yan followed Zhao Xing's words and stopped using spiritual power to struggle.

As a result, not long after, he gasped.

Because his body, which he originally felt was fine, actually began to experience piercing pain!

Pain makes one instinctively look for ways to stop the pain. Either circulate spiritual power to recover from injuries, or subconsciously struggle...

Due to Zhao Xing's prior warning, Jing Yan endured the pain and remained calm, guarding his sea of consciousness and mind.

But the Milo Flower was increasing the intensity of the 'Source Poison'.

If Jing Yan's will collapsed, he would eventually still become nutrients.

Therefore, there wasn't much time left for Zhao Xing to rescue him.

He had to save him before Jing Yan collapsed.

"What traps Jing Yan, besides the Milo Flower, are two magic arrays."

"One is the underground palace array, and the second is the array that solidifies the earth vein."

"Both are of the imprisonment type."

Earth-Profit School Farmers have a professional branch specifically for building tombs for others, called 'Mausoleum Farmers'. They are jokingly called 'Funeral Mages'.

The bad news is that these techniques clearly came from the hands of the tomb owner's Earth-Profit School Farmer friend, because the level is very high, and the ancient Luoluo Kingdom is not of the same era as today, so Zhao Xing couldn't tell exactly which kind of spell it was.

The good news is that after endless years, the power of these arrays is not what it used to be. The entire Luoluo Mausoleum was exposed by the void river due to the arrays being in disrepair, so it also had an impact on South Luo 88.

If someone else came, they really wouldn't be able to save Jing Yan.

But Master Zhao quickly thought of a way.

He used Profound Earth Divine Concealment to escape underground and split off a clone to sneak beside the array base.

At the same time, he took out two items.

One was a Vajra Ring, and the other was also a Vajra Ring.

In the two hundred years he spent upgrading his equipment, he had changed his Boundary Law Compass, and the old ones were sold.

But the old Vajra Rings weren't lost; now one was high-grade, and one was top-grade.

This was mainly due to the nature of the Vajra Ring.

It doesn't rely much on the holder's ability, meaning its power is constant. Whether you are a rookie or an expert, the power unleashed is the same, unlike the Boundary Law Compass, where the effect is completely different in the hands of an expert versus a rookie.

Zhao Xing's current Straw Man Technique, although not strong, still remained at the spiritual energy version, unable to keep up with the demands of the universe version.

But fortunately, the Three Gods Life Palace was powerful and could still exert the strength of the mid-first realm.

The large Vajra Ring was used to jam the underground palace array, beneath Jing Yan.

The small Vajra Ring was balanced 500 kilometers to Jing Yan's right.

This scene was somewhat similar to Jing Yan stepping on a landmine, and Zhao Xing using a military knife to cushion him.

"The hardest part is the Milo Flower."

Zhao Xing looked at the tree-man statue; now it had completely changed. Originally it was gray-black, with a stone-like texture.

Now it was glowing red, its roots and epidermis resembling human skin and flesh.

It had no petals. The Milo Flower is called a flower, but it doesn't bloom. Its roots and stems are intertwined, resembling muscles woven from tree branches.

"To break the control, we must do two things at once."

After Zhao Xing had a plan, he immediately notified Jing Yan: "Old brother, stay awake. You need to cooperate next."

"Tell me."

Jing Yan was tough enough. Even though he was roaring in his heart from the pain, he didn't even frown on his face. He would rather die than lose face in front of his good brother.

"When I count to three, you cast the Military Law Prohibition to counter the imprisonment force, then cast Wandering God Heaven to fly upward, cutting off your body above the waist and abdomen. Forget about everything in your lower body."

"No problem." Jing Yan nodded.

"One."

"Two."

"Three!!!"

Hum~

The large and small Vajra Rings activated in an instant.

The two forces compressing and pulling Jing Yan weakened by 30% instantly.

Jing Yan also exerted force at this time, casting the Military Law Prohibition, further weakening the array's power by 40%.

The array problem was solved in an instant.

The Milo Flower, within two seconds, encountered Zhao Xing's billions of 'Essence-Stripping Divine Needles' stabs, as well as the soul attack of the Three Gods Life Palace.

The Milo Flower's will was interfered with by Zhao Xing, and the Essence-Stripping Divine Needles stabbed wildly at its 'parasitism' and 'Source Poison' origin areas.

Doing two things at once, it instantly released its suppression on Jing Yan.

But it was only for this instant.

The next moment, Jing Yan's lower body was completely shattered, and the Milo Flower stopped pretending. It wanted to quickly seize the nutrients and complete the parasitism.

"Boom!"

Jing Yan emerged from the soil, covered in thunder and fire.

He only had half his body left.

"Boom boom~"

A black wave erupted underground, and Zhao Xing's clone shattered into pieces in an instant, then mixed into the 'Source Poison'.

The main body ran away frantically at this moment.

The Boundary Law Compass was also pushed to the limit.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom!"

The soil rolled, and the earth turned completely black.

Tentacles, each one strange and demonic, broke through the soil; they were covered in many mouthparts and messy, tangled fleshy filaments.

The Essence-Stripping divine ability destroyed the Milo Flower's basic life structure.

It had now completely become a terrifying monster.

Zhao Xing didn't dare to look back, only hating that the Cloud Technique under his feet wasn't fast enough.

Folding the light once, he scooped up Jing Yan and accelerated in a straight line.

He dove headfirst into the corrosive space.

"Roar~"

The sound came from behind, but was eventually blocked by the gray mist.

Zhao Xing let out a long breath.

Finally safe.

"Old brother, how are you?"

Only then did he have time to observe Jing Yan's state.

"Hehehe~"

Jing Yan let out a strange laugh.

Zhao Xing was somewhat terrified, thinking the Milo Flower's will had intruded into his brain, and subconsciously aimed the Boundary Law Compass at Jing Yan.

"Hey hey, don't hit, I'm joking." Jing Yan hurriedly raised his hands.

"..."

Zhao Xing was speechless.

"Let me check."

For caution's sake, Zhao Xing still checked with Soul Heaven Vision.

Finding that Jing Yan was indeed joking, he finally set his mind at ease.

"Old brother, your mentality is truly good." Zhao Xing put away the Boundary Law Compass. "When you were studying in the Beiye Star System, your teachers must have liked you very much."

Jing Yan raised an eyebrow: "I can tell, you are being sarcastic."

"But you guessed right, I really wasn't favored by teachers when I was in Beiye."

"I'm not the type to follow the rules."

Zhao Xing could also tell; Jing Yan was the type of person who was lively and liked to pursue excitement, and his ideas were unconstrained. It wasn't a bad thing for a Mechanist to have such traits, just like many Farmers are dull, don't like socializing, and only like dealing with plants.

"Alright, stop forcing it." Zhao Xing said: "Hurry up and heal your wounds; I'll guard you."

Jing Yan didn't say thanks, just hammered his chest with one hand; everything was understood without words.

As the saying goes, the predecessors plant trees, and the descendants enjoy the shade.

But in this world, it could also be that the predecessors plant trees, and the descendants end up cold.

Zhao Xing and Jing Yan suffered the poisonous beating of the Milo Flower.

The people of the Yuedan Marquis Mansion suffered the poisonous beating of the Phantom Star Mushrooms.

The three-year deadline was approaching, and Hong Qi not only hadn't received good news about clearing the barrier.

Instead, he received bad news: the person in charge, Zeng Zhuo, and his two hundred-plus core members were all missing.

Please... you... bookmark_()

Hong Qi took time out from the large Boundary Boat to come over once.

He crossed the Star Wheel Maze and the Puppet Avenue, arriving before the third barrier.

At this time, the person in charge here was the Fate Master Wang Yun.

Wang Yun had been watching before the gray mist for a long time.

When Hong Qi arrived, three incomplete paper figures stumbled out of the gray mist and fell before Wang Yun.

And Wang Yun revealed a look of pain at just the right moment.

If Zeng Zhuo were here, he would have had to say, "Lord Wang is brilliant."

When it comes to the ability to perform in front of superiors, Wang Yun is practically at the Great Divine Ability realm!

"What happened?" Hong Qi asked.

"Lord Hong, someone entered before us." Wang Yun bowed, "There are many plant life forms in the mist that are new species, deliberately placed in this barrier to block those who come later."

"What did you see?"

Wang Yun, this Fate Master, also studied some spells of a Starry Sky Historian and had means to see the past.

It was precisely because of this that he could stand out among a group of Fate Masters.

"This subordinate's skills are not refined, I only saw a blurry figure." Wang Yun pointed, and the three paper figure remains burned.

The flames burned in a very regular pattern, forming a flame picture frame.

In the flame light, there was a majestic back, standing before a huge mushroom.

Every time he waved his hand, the mushroom changed accordingly and was thrown into the distance.

"Self-School Farmer?" Hong Qi's eyes narrowed.

Among the adventurers roaming the universe, Self-School Farmers are the rarest.

In the high-level Dao arenas within the ancient kingdoms, a saying is popular: A Self-School Farmer is hard to encounter in a hundred thousand fields; meeting one is meeting an invincible powerhouse with a hundred thousand victories!

"What realm?" Hong Qi asked.

Wang Yun pondered: "He can make the Phantom Star Mushrooms possess such terrifying power; it is preliminarily determined that he is at least at the Minor Divine Ability realm."

Hong Qi frowned.

Actually beaten to the punch by a third-realm Self-School Farmer?

The Yuedan Marquis Mansion does not fear a small third-realm, but third-realm Self-School Farmers usually have backing from large forces. Lone-wolf Farmers walking the Self-School path are very rare because they can't learn cultivation techniques without joining a force.

He was afraid that this person had a large background and a large backer.

Now this dumb loss can only be eaten first.

"Is Zeng Zhuo still alive?" Hong Qi asked.

"Alive."

"Save the people first, but don't continue to push forward."

"Yes."

Hong Qi took a trip and returned to the Boundary Boat to report to Lu Yuehan.

"Miss, when our people were exploring that tomb in the Star Wheel Maze..."

Hong Qi told Lu Yuehan what had happened.

After listening, a trace of curiosity flashed in Lu Yuehan's eyes.

She had seen many farming-type Self-School Farmers in the Marquis Mansion, but combat-type ones were rare.

The difference between combat and farming for Self-School Farmers lies in the fact that the former specifically cultivates killing-type plant life. These plant life forms are called troop types precisely because they have strong combat power.

The latter cultivates economic-type plant life, which has no combat power and is mainly for raising medicinal herbs, food, or Dao-soldier materials.

Lu Yuehan asked: "Does Steward Hong have any suggestions?"

Hong Qi said calmly: "There are only three choices: retreat now, kill and seize the treasure, or befriend a hero."

Lu Yuehan smiled slightly: "I don't lack wealth, and a small third-realm tomb may not necessarily bring much wealth to the family, so there's no need to kill and seize the treasure."

"Retreating now doesn't fit my style either. My subordinates can't suffer this hardship in vain. If I can befriend an expert, this loss won't be in vain."

Hong Qi nodded: "I understand, I will go arrange it."

Jing Yan suffered a serious injury. Zhao Xing couldn't cure this injury; he was a Farmer, not a Physician.

With Source Poison in his body, he could only ask a specialized Physician profession to take action to fully recover.

Jing Yan himself had a way; he carried specialized medical Dao-soldiers with him.

However, the Source Poison was already at the divine ability level, and the medical Dao-soldier Jing Yan carried could only temporarily handle the injury.

"To fully recover, I can only return to the exploration base." Jing Yan looked at his residual body, which had many crystal tubes inserted into it, continuously precipitating poison: "I shouldn't have been greedy. The money I made from South Luo 88 will all be spent on medical treatment. You are still the steady one, brother."

"When adventuring, everyone makes mistakes." Zhao Xing comforted: "A fall into a pit, a gain in your wit; it might not be a bad thing."

"True, that makes sense." Jing Yan laughed: "Adventure, adventure, you do things that have risks. Coming to South Luo 88 this time and being able to meet Brother Zhao is the biggest gain, and I even got to see a magical plant like the Milo Flower. It was not a wasted trip, hahaha."

"It's not without gains. After you go out, report this tomb; you can still make a profit. I won't take a share of that money." Zhao Xing said.

Discovering an ancient tomb and exploring it yourself is the way with the greatest returns; reporting it gets you much less.

Taking the rules set by the official Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom as an example, providing information will provide a bonus and merit points of 1% to 10% of the tomb's value, depending on how detailed the information is.

Zhao Xing and the others found the entrance, passed three barriers, found seven main tombs, and had the experience of being poisoned—these things all count as valuable information.

The least valuable information is the person who first discovered the 【Star Wheel Maze】, just pointing at the Star Wheel Maze and saying there might be a tomb here; that doesn't make much money at all.

The Phantom Star System is full of tombs and suspected tomb sites; there is no shortage of such information. What is lacking is people who dare to take risks.

Like Lu Yuehan and her large group of people acting to excavate tombs on South Luo 88, they might even lose money; the wages and pensions of subordinates are not cheap.

"Don't refuse to share." Jing Yan said: "We have already explored a lot of information about this tomb; we should be able to get 10% of the profit. If calculated as a Great Divine Ability tomb, 10% might be a billion."

"Your large and small Vajra Rings were lost there; you have to be compensated."

According to the rules summarized officially, the value of a second-realm tomb is usually under 1 billion; over 1 billion is relatively rare.

The value of a third-realm tomb usually fluctuates in the range of 1 billion to 10 billion, depending on whether it is a Minor Divine Ability or Great Divine Ability realm; tombs over 10 billion are also rare.

As for the Dao Domain realm? Then there is no count; the official hasn't announced the specific value either.

Currently, the Phantom Star System has found five Dao Domain realm tombs, one of which was discovered by the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom, and the other four were discovered by other ancient kingdom forces.

The one who discovered the Dao Domain realm tomb in the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom was the Tianji Prince. He spent great effort to move a Sun Star over.

However, the "Essence-Stripping Divine Ability" Zhao Xing obtained is of high value!

Perhaps the era the ancient Luoluo Kingdom was in is different from the current Desolate Domain Era; maybe the Self-School's secret methods weren't hard to find back then, so the tomb owner just gave them away casually.

Nowadays, Self-School divine abilities can be sold for sky-high prices. If Zhao Xing is willing to sell, according to the current popular sales methods, he could immediately get hundreds of billions, and subsequently continue to receive a share of the sales.

So, he doesn't care about other small money at all.

"Stop talking nonsense. A real man's word is his bond; what I say won't change." Zhao Xing laughed, "You can't have made the trip for nothing. The reward for reporting this information is yours, and I'll pay for your medical expenses too."

Jing Yan nodded and stopped arguing with Zhao Xing.

"You'll have to suffer a bit on the way back; I can't cast the Military Law Prohibition anymore."

"That can stump me?" Zhao Xing laughed, "Just a second-realm Mechanist puppet, let's go."

Jing Yan followed behind Zhao Xing and began to walk back.

However, he found that the road back seemed somewhat different from before.

"Why are there so many more mushrooms?"

"Hiss, is that still a Phantom Star Mushroom?"

Jing Yan looked at the distance in shock.

"Old brother, what exactly have you been doing these past few years?"

Zhao Xing had spent more than five years, back and forth, wholeheartedly devoted to the cultivation of the Essence-Stripping divine ability.

Because the corrosive swamp was very suitable for the survival of Yin-attribute troop types, Zhao Xing himself didn't know how many mushrooms were in the gray mist now.

"Shh, keep it down, restrain your aura."

"Some Phantom Star Mushrooms have very keen hearing."

"Hearing?" Jing Yan felt it was somewhat absurd, because Zhao Xing clearly said hearing, not perception.

What does that mean? Did the mushrooms grow ears?

Jing Yan stopped talking, because he really saw mushrooms that had grown ear-like organs, and the earlobes were even moving, emitting origin fluctuations, seemingly receiving echoes.

Those who could recognize them as Phantom Star Mushrooms were considered not bad.

Some couldn't be recognized at all, but Zhao Xing said they were Phantom Star Mushrooms.

Even though Jing Yan was knowledgeable, seeing so many strange plant life forms made his scalp tingle.

"Father said Self-School Farmers are perverts. I didn't feel it when I was in the Empire, but now I've truly opened my eyes." Jing Yan was secretly shocked.

Self-School Farmers within the Red Star Empire have to follow the Empire's rules; ordinary people can't see those secret research bases at all.

Those who can be seen are at least normal on the outside.

Like Zhao Xing, who became a monk halfway and is a self-taught Self-School Farmer, and is also in the wild, of course he has no scruples.

So now Jing Yan saw the dangerous side of Self-School Farmers.

Zhao Xing himself also looked somewhat terrified.

Because he cultivated "Yuanhai Boundary", his sensing of plant life was stronger than Jing Yan's.

"Some plant life forms even have third-realm strength. Is this really something I created?"

He stabbed wildly when he was cultivating, and after a few years of development, he didn't know what these mushrooms had evolved into.

"For a Self-School Farmer like me without standardized teaching, cultivating by myself is truly too dangerous." Zhao Xing thought to himself. "I can't play around like this in the future."

It would be unreasonable for Zeng Zhuo not to flip the car; Zhao Xing, the culprit, was scared himself!

At the junction of the third and second barriers, before a temporarily built camp.

"Brother Zeng, he is coming out." Wang Yun looked at Zeng Zhuo beside him. "Don't get excited."

"I'm not excited."

A curve appeared on the corner of Wang Yun's mouth as he pressed Zeng Zhuo back onto the Spring Flower Chair.

Still saying you're not excited?

You're about to stand up from the medical chair!

"Why don't you avoid it, Brother Zeng." Wang Yun said, "Lord Hong said that Miss wants to meet this Farmer."

"Someone, send Lord Zeng back to his room to rest."

Zeng Zhuo opened his mouth, but eventually obediently lay down.

Forget it, out of sight, out of mind.

Just after Zeng Zhuo was sent away.

Zhao Xing and Jing Yan also walked out of the mist.

"Hmm? Someone came?"

Zhao Xing's expression sank.

Because there were too many mushrooms planted in the corrosive mist earlier, and they were fighting each other, the Heavenly Sound Bamboo he left behind had no early warning function at all.

The clone only had first-realm strength and couldn't survive no matter which barrier it stayed in. Jing Yan's Dao-soldier puppet could survive, but it couldn't transmit messages between different barriers, and the place was too big to cover everything. So they only knew now that people had come in from the outside.

"And it looks like they are specifically waiting for us." Jing Yan's expression also became serious. In the wilderness, the only possibility he could think of was killing and seizing treasure. There is no law or order to speak of on South Luo 88.

"Brother Zhao, you go first in a moment." Jing Yan said, "I am a person of the Red Star Empire; maybe they will let me go."

"Stop talking nonsense." Zhao Xing said, "The Empire's influence is great, but it won't work in a tomb. Look at the scale of that place; they can build a temporary base here. Does it look like an ordinary force? Would they be afraid of a lone Imperial person like you?"

"In any case, I, Jing Yan, have no reason to let a brother cover the rear." Jing Yan drew his Myriad Law Dao-soldier and domineeringly flew in front of Zhao Xing: "If I tell you to go first, go first."

Truly an Imperial person who wants to be strong all his life.

Zhao Xing looked at the top of Jing Yan's head: "Wait, don't do anything yet, maybe we don't need to fight."

He glanced at Jing Yan's information; Yan Eleven's luck hadn't changed.

If it were a life-and-death crisis, this luck would have temporarily dropped a level.

His own hadn't changed either, still tenth-grade.

"Put away your weapon, listen to me." Zhao Xing crossed Jing Yan.

Jing Yan thought about it and still listened to the advice, putting away the Myriad Law Dao-soldier.

"Swish swish~"

When Zhao Xing flew forward for a distance, a team was waiting in front.

It was clearly a well-trained elite troop. Although they didn't show their weapons, their standing positions were very particular, and they could form an array at any time.

"It's the Yuan Di Army." Zhao Xing recognized them; those people belonged to one of the twenty legions stationed by the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom at the exploration base.

"Those who can invite the Yuan Di Army are either rich or noble; at the very least, they need Marquis-level authority."

Marquis authority includes the authority to mobilize troops. Although a certain amount of money must be paid, not everyone is qualified to pay this money. If a person without status pays, others won't even want it.

Since they are here, they should be at ease. After Zhao Xing approached, he slowly reduced speed.

Receiving Zhao Xing was the Fate Master Wang Yun, who smiled and bowed: "Under the Yuedan Marquis Mansion, Fate Official Wang Yun, has met the two fellow Daoists."

Yuedan Marquis? Zhao Xing hadn't even heard of it; after all, the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom is also very large.

He bowed and said: "Member of the Purple God Mansion, Zhao Xing, has met Fellow Daoist Wang. This is a member of the Red Star Empire's Royal Family, Jing Yan."

Zhao Xing's identity could be checked clearly, but Jing Yan was different.

He wasn't a member of the Royal Family at all, but when traveling abroad, identity is given by oneself.

"Red Star Empire, Purple God Mansion?" Wang Yun was somewhat surprised in his heart.

However, this wasn't the place to talk, so he didn't ask much and soon stated his intention.

"Meeting is fate. My Miss would like to invite the two fellow Daoists to go and have a chat. I wonder if the two fellow Daoists can do me the honor."

ps: Recently tortured by a toothache, just eight thousand words today.
