"Brother Zhang, actually, when I entered the Second Spatial Zone, I saw a stone table there. That Stone Table didn't look ordinary to me, so I went and touched the Stone Table. However, the moment I touched the Stone Table, those Sky Ghosts flew out of their coffins and started attacking me. I'm afraid, the treasure you are talking about must be that Stone Table. But I didn't take the Stone Table. It must be still in the second Spatial Zone. If Brother Zhang has a way, he can go inside and take away the Stone Table. Well, I'll definitely not ask Brother Zhang to divide the treasure equally, like what Brother Zhang just did." Ye Xiao showed a discontent look on his face, full of disappointment, and said in a deep voice.
Zhang Tao's ears perked up. He didn't pay attention to Ye Xiao's disappointed face, instead, he hurriedly arrived in front of Ye Xiao and asked, "Is what you are saying true?"
"Of course, it is true. Why would I lie to you?" Ye Xiao replied with a nod.
Zhang Tao remembered that he did see a Stone Table inside the Second Spatial Zone, however, at that time, he was busy fighting against the Sky Ghosts. So, he didn't observe the Stone Table carefully and ignored it completely.
Now that he thought about it, an excited expression appeared on his face. But soon he realized something. His excited expression was instantly replaced by a look of pity as he shook his head and said regretfully, "Looks like I've wronged brother Ye. I apologize for that. But nothing could be done by now. The vortex that can lead us to the Second Spatial Zone has already disappeared. It'll not appear again. I'm afraid, there is no way left to enter the Second Spatial Zone. Sigh!"
Ye Xiao wanted to curse this Fatty. He was really good at pretending. If Ye Xiao was really just a 13 years old boy, he would have really believed in Zhang Tao's acting.
However, this was also the result of what he wanted to achieve. He nodded regretfully and said, "Brother Zhang, there is nothing left here now. I think we should go out and look for opportunities elsewhere."
Zhang Tao shook his head with a helpless laugh and said, "Brother Ye, you go. I'm afraid, I'll have to stay here and recuperate first. I'm seriously injured by those Sky Ghosts. I have heavy internal injuries. I'll take the pills and it'll take me at least one day to recover. You don't waste your time here. Go and look for your opportunities. After recuperating, I'll also come out!"
Success!
This was the thought in Ye Xiao's heart. He really wanted to travel without extra legs following behind him. Now, he had succeeded.
Well, he still showed a pained look on his face. He looked worriedly at Zhang Tao and asked, "Brother Zhang, will you be alright by yourself? Maybe, I should just stay here and wait for you to recover from your injuries. Then, we both can travel together once again. How about it?"
"No!" Zhang Tao hurriedly exclaimed. Seeming to understand he has overreacted he coughed twice before saying, "Brother Ye, don't worry about me. I'll be alright. There is no place safer than this where I can recuperate without needing to worry about being ambushed or anything!"
Ye Xiao nodded his head, replying, "That's right. Then, brother Zhang, I'll get going!"
"Yes, yes! Go!"
Ye Xiao bid farewell to Zhang Tao and left the first spatial zone through the same tunnel he had created previously. He had a happy smile on his face.
On the other hand, Zhang Tao was also grinning. Ye Xiao had finally left. Now, he could enter the second spatial zone once again and take away that Stone Table.
.....
Two days later, Ye Xiao arrived at a place where a storm was brewing non-stop. Well, Ye Xiao was not the only one here, there were many people at this place, trying to pass the strong storm. Every single person here was at least a Fifth Stage Martial Saint Realm martial artist.
However, the storm was too strong. Only the wind whistling could be heard by my ears.
Ye Xiao kept controlling his body in the fierce wind to prevent himself from being blown away by the wind. This wind was strong even for a Martial God like him.
Sand and stones kept being blown up in the fierce wind, smashing onto Ye Xiao's body. He used his spirit energy to create an energy barrier around him, blocking the attacks of the sand and stones.
Ye Xiao gradually gained control of his body as he moved forward steadily.
"He can actually move in this storm!"
"The wind there must be weaker, faster! Let's follow him!"
The group of cultivators immediately noticed Ye Xiao and followed him. The storm in front of them gradually dispersed, revealing a vast expanse of mountains. The trees were lush and lush. It seemed to be a beautiful scenery, but in reality, it was filled with danger.
"It's actually another grand killing formation!"
Ye Xiao wanted to say something to other people but stopped himself. He lightly put his hand into his sleeve and continued moving forward.
After some time, an empty space appeared in front of Ye Xiao. At the same time, the cultivators who had been following Ye Xiao also arrived at this place.
"Finally survived."
"This is too scary. I felt like I was about to be torn apart by the storm just now. If I wasn't careful, I'm afraid I would have died there."
The cultivators sighed with fear lingering in their hearts.
"Now that the storm has stopped, we might as well fly up!" Someone suggested.
"You're right. We shouldn't stay here for too long. If the storm appears again, I'm afraid it'll be even harder for us to leave."
Just as everyone wanted to fly up, Ye Xiao finally couldn't hold on and warned them, "I advise you to find a place to hide. I feel that a powerful existence is approaching. Regardless of whether that existence will kill us or not, it is best to hide."
Ye Xiao pointed to the sky again and said again. "This is a Grand Killing formation. The sky and the earth could be sealed by this formation to make an independent domain. No matter what kind of strength we have, this formation can easily kill us. We have to think of a way to survive first, and then think about whether we can escape or not."
"Tch, you're just a brat at the Martial King Realm. Since you said there's danger, could it be that you want us to continue staying here?"
Someone was unconvinced and retorted. Then he prepared to fly into the sky. However, as soon as he flew ten meters in the air, his face suddenly changed, and his body swelled up and exploded.
Bang!
A mass of blood mist descended from the sky.
Those people who were about to dash into the sky suddenly stopped in their tracks. Then they revealed fear on their faces. They shifted their gazes back to look at Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao ignored them. He spread out his Divine Sense to scan the surroundings. He soon found a relatively remote mountain and arrived there. Then he opened a cave halfway up the mountain.
"Could this person be an idiot? How could he still be in the mood to dig a cave here?" Someone saw this and laughed in his heart.
? "Is he going to live in it and be a savage?"
After talking for a moment, they all thought that Ye Xiao was stupid, and they did not pay attention to it.
Ye Xiao turned a deaf ear to other people's ridicule. He found a big stone and brought it to the mouth of the cave to block the whole cave from outside.
Previously, Ye Xiao had clearly sensed that there was a very dangerous existence not far away, which was approaching rapidly.
In Ye Xiao's calculation, even with his strength, he can't escape. If he were to fall into that existence's hands, he'll definitely die. So, it was better to be prepared, in case you can't avoid it.
The huge stone blocked the mouth of the cave, but Ye Xiao didn't relax. Instead, he quickly set up a formation.
With the completion of the formation, a faint light is emitted from the cave. And his existence inside the cave seems to have disappeared suddenly.
Well, he was still inside the cave, but now, no one can discover him.
Outside the cave, after talking for a moment, the people decided to leave together.
This was a strange place and they were completely unfamiliar with this place. They didn't want to stay at a place for a long time.
"It's better to go north. I think the spiritual energy there is strong. Maybe there will be some treasure."
"It should be to the West. According to the direction we are now in, we should go west."
They also had different opinions on where to go. But the debate did not last long.
