Old Five is a Goose.
Chapter 720: Contending for the Crimson Lotus
"It doesn't matter, we won't go out for the time being. Each layer of the Shattered World is very wide, as long as we are careful, no one will catch us. Put away the crimson lotus first, and we'll change places. We've stayed here for too long," Su Rou'er nodded.
Dou Hualong said apologetically, "Sister Su, this crimson lotus should have been yours, but you..."
He was indeed very sorry. He and Su Rou'er had come in to find cultivation resources to advance, but Su Rou'er had accompanied him to hide in this godforsaken place for more than a year without any gains. Sister Su Rou'er's strength was much higher than his, but she didn't want a treasure like the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus. No one would believe such words.
Not to mention that he and Su Rou'er were just senior and junior disciples without blood relations, even the senior and junior titles were casually used. If it wasn't for Brother Mo, he wouldn't have even known Su Rou'er. In fact, during the escape, Sister Su Rou'er had saved him many times with her rich experience. This time, she even gave him the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus.
Su Rou'er smiled, "Hualong, if I had seen it first, I would definitely have taken it. You saw the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus first, so it naturally belongs to you. These treasures are about fate. If you have no fate, it's useless to force it."
Su Rou'er had more experience than Dou Hualong. Treasures like the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus were indeed meant for those who were destined. Forcing it would only harm oneself and others.
She could take the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus, but if Sect Leader Mo knew in the future that Dou Hualong had discovered the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus first, and she had taken it, he would definitely look at her differently. She knew that Dou Hualong was loyal to Mo Wuji. Not to mention Dou Hualong, she herself greatly admired Sect Leader Mo.
"Well, I'll give this crimson lotus to Big Brother in the future. It's a waste of good things for me with my low strength to possess the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus." Now that the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus had been taken by him, Dou Hualong didn't mention giving the crimson lotus to Su Rou'er again.
Su Rou'er smiled again and said, "Let's go quickly."
She was sure that Sect Leader Mo would not want Dou Hualong's Karma Fire Crimson Lotus. She believed she would never be wrong. A cultivator who had just ascended could become an eighth-grade venerable-level Pill Emperor and confront several Immortal Emperors. Such courage could not be exchanged for even a hundred Karma Fire Crimson Lotuses.
Because she understood Mo Wuji, she believed that Mo Wuji could establish a remarkable sect and that Mo Wuji would not want Dou Hualong's treasure.
"Okay, let's go..."
Before Dou Hualong could finish speaking, he saw Su Rou'er's face change, and she immediately raised her hand and cast dozens of restrictions.
"Sister Su..."
"Someone is coming." Su Rou'er transmitted her voice to Dou Hualong while stopping him from speaking.
She had rich experience in escaping. When someone appeared in this mountain gully, she immediately noticed.
The person who came was Tong Hui from Knife Scar Peak. Although he was at the peak of Great Zenith Immortal, his aptitude was not high. He had achieved his current success by spending almost 99% of his time in seclusion. The little time he had left was spent asking his sister for cultivation resources. His sister, Tong Yuan, was the wife of Gou Liyang, the peak master of Knife Scar Peak. Otherwise, with Tong Hui's aptitude, no matter how much he secluded himself, he would not be able to cultivate to the peak of Great Zenith Immortal.
Although Su Rou'er's age was far less than Tong Hui's, and her strength was far inferior to Tong Hui's, when it came to the experience of hiding and escaping, Tong Hui could not catch up with Su Rou'er even if he tried.
Therefore, Tong Hui, the Great Zenith Immortal, was discovered by Su Rou'er, but he was still slowly passing by the mountain gully not far away.
Su Rou'er was anxious. She knew that if Tong Hui had a little more experience, or was a little more careful, the small cave dwelling they were in would be discovered. The concealment array she had set up with her array skills had too many traces, and the concealment effect was too poor.
At this moment, Tong Hui, who originally wanted to enter the mountain gully, suddenly stopped and punched a boulder beside him.
The boulder cracked open, and a fist-sized stone appeared in his hand, with seven faint flame shapes in the middle of the stone.
"This is a Seven-Flower Flame Heart Stone?" Tong Hui's heart pounded with excitement. He didn't expect to find a Seven-Flower Flame Heart Stone. His harvest in the fourth layer of the Shattered World for a year was not necessarily as valuable as this Flame Heart Stone.
Could it be that this Flame Heart Stone was what the senior from the Grand Expanse Celestial Domain wanted him to find? No, definitely not. Because if his spiritual thoughts hadn't penetrated into this boulder, he wouldn't have been able to discover this Flame Heart Stone at all. Whether it was or not, he had made a fortune.
Just as Tong Hui was about to put away the Flame Heart Stone, he saw a figure approaching. He quickly flashed away and fled.
The figure soon discovered Tong Hui and followed after him.
When Tong Hui's spiritual thoughts scanned the guy chasing him and saw that his cultivation was also at the Great Zenith Immortal realm, he stopped instead. He was almost at the perfection of Great Zenith Immortal, how could he fear the other party, a Great Zenith Immortal?
The place he was in was a dry lake...
Originally, Tong Hui just wanted to check the surrounding terrain so that he could use the terrain when they fought later. But when his spiritual thoughts landed in the middle of the lake, he was stunned, and then he rushed down frantically. At this moment, even the approaching Great Zenith Immortal was thrown aside by him.
He sensed an ancient and profound aura of innate Great Dao in the middle of the lake, as if there was an innate treasure here.
The thing had been taken away, and there was also an extremely pure fire attribute aura. Even if he didn't have a fire attribute spiritual root, he still wanted to glimpse the profound mysteries of the Great Dao. This was definitely not comparable to the Seven-Flower Flame Heart Stone he had just obtained...
Karma Fire Crimson Lotus, it must be the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus.
Tong Hui's eyes turned red. Even an idiot had heard about the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus in the fourth layer of the Shattered World. Just because he had never seen the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus didn't mean he had no knowledge. He was still a Great Zenith Immortal, how could he not know about an innate treasure like the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus?
"Hand over the thing." An icy voice rang out, making Tong Hui shiver.
Standing not far in front of him was a long-haired man, the Great Zenith Immortal who had been chasing him.
"What thing?" Tong Hui's heart sank, and he calmed down. He completely understood what the Grand Expanse Celestial Domain's Great Immortal Emperor wanted him to find - it must be the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus. In other words, even if he obtained the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus, it wouldn't be his own.
The long-haired man sneered, "You're not bad, you actually thought that the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus would be in a place with scarce immortal spiritual energy. If I hadn't thought of this, in a few months, I'm afraid no one would know that you took the crimson lotus."
The immortal spiritual energy here was much richer than when Su Rou'er and Dou Hualong came. In the long-haired man's opinion, in a few months, the immortal spiritual energy from other places would flood in, and this place would be no different from other places.
Tong Hui's excitement and elation completely disappeared, and he was even a little frightened. If he had really obtained the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus, it would have been fine, anyway, this thing was to be handed over to the Grand Expanse Celestial Domain's Jin Yu Great Immortal Emperor. He believed that if he secretly kept the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus, he would die without a burial place...
Secretly keep the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus? This wasn't impossible. Once he possessed the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus, he would hide in the fourth layer of the Shattered World to cultivate. When his strength was strong, he would go out again. With the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus, was he afraid that he couldn't become an Immortal Emperor? Why should a treasure of heaven and earth like the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus be handed over to the Grand Expanse Celestial Domain?
"Are you handing it over or not?" The long-haired man's domain surged, enveloping Tong Hui within it. At the same time, his magic weapon was summoned. If Tong Hui's strength wasn't stronger than his, he might have already made a move.
Tong Hui shuddered. What was he thinking? He didn't have the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus at all.
But would the other party believe him? A murderous intent suddenly surged in his heart. Only by killing the other party could he prove his innocence. Otherwise, even if he went out, the other party would spread the news that he had obtained the Karma Fire Crimson Lotus, and then it would be a disaster. At that time, no one would listen to his explanation.
Make a move. After Tong Hui understood this, the glazed lamp in his hand turned into a green light and swept out. At the same time, his domain was fully unleashed. He had to make a quick decision.
"I knew you wouldn't be willing." The long-haired man grinned and also launched his magic weapon.
...
Ping Fan was beginning to be established. Mo Wuji had been refining array flags and setting up various arrays. Although he couldn't refine a seventh-grade immortal artifact yet, his array flag refining skills were quite good. Coupled with the array pattern skills he had just comprehended, he believed that as long as he had time, he could set up a seventh-level protective array around Ping Fan.
Mo Wuji was responsible for the arrangements in the Extreme Zea Sea, while the construction of the sect on land was entrusted to Lu Ming.
Wei Zidao, who had initially set up the chamber of commerce, stayed with Mo Wuji to help, while the affairs of the chamber of commerce were entrusted to Cha Rui and Yu Saijun. Mo Wuji's array skills were good, but unfortunately, his strength was too low. If he wanted to establish the Extreme Zea Sea as the base of the Ping Fan Immortal Sect, he needed an Immortal Emperor to take action.
Fortunately, because of the large number of rare immortal pills that Mo Wuji had taken out, the Ping Fan Chamber of Commerce quickly gathered a large amount of immortal materials, which were quickly transported back to the temporary base on the edge of the Extreme Zea Sea for Mo Wuji and Wei Zidao to use.
Turning thousands of miles of sea area into a sect base might be a fantasy for an ordinary mortal. For Mo Wuji and Wei Zidao, as long as there were enough materials, it wasn't a very complicated matter.
Large pieces of mountains were brought over by Wei Zidao, and connected thousands of miles of the edge of the Extreme Zea Sea into one piece under Mo Wuji's array skills.
The majestic prototype of the immortal sect became clearer and clearer. In just one or two months, Wei Zidao had fallen in love with this place. Sect Leader Mo's planning for the immortal sect was too clear and beautiful. He was sure that once the Ping Fan Immortal Sect was established, it would be the most beautiful immortal sect in the entire immortal realm, without exception. The only regret was that the immortal spiritual energy here was scarce.
On this day, Mo Wuji and Wei Zidao were arranging the immortal peaks in the sea area when Dong Sha, who was guarding the edge of the Extreme Zea Sea, ran over anxiously and reported, "Sect Leader, something has happened. Su Zian, who went to Ping An Corner, was seriously injured and escaped back..."
