âWoosh, woosh, woosh~~~â
In the short moment when Yin Zhuanghong was stunned, countless sickles flew out from within the formation core, coming straight for her.
âCrap!â
As Yin Zhuanghong was momentarily stunned and the sickles were extremely fast, by the time she reacted to them, it was already too late for her to dodge.
âWoosh~~~â
However, at the moment when Yin Zhuanghong believed that she would be killed, a figure suddenly landed before her.
âBang~~~â
Before Yin Zhuanghong could even see who that person was, she was pushed away by an enormous power.
It was that person who had landed before her. That person was the one who had pushed her away.
After being pushed away, Yin Zhaunghong was finally able to see who that person was.
It was Chu Feng. Chu Feng was the one that had landed before her. He was the one that had pushed her away.
However, by the time she realized it was Chu Feng, the sickles that flew out from the formation core had all landed on him.
âWoosh, woosh, woosh~~~ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Blood splattered everywhere. Chu Fengâs body was covered in wounds.
Even though he had taken the initiative to use his spirit power to form layers of armor to protect himself beforehand, before those powerful sickles, the multiple layers of spirit formation armor he had covered himself with were simply akin to paper, and unable to withstand a single blow.
âChu Feng!!!â
After the sickles returned to the formation core, Yin Zhuanghong immediately used her martial power to pull Chu Feng to her side.
At that moment, Chu Feng was completely covered in wounds and blood. Even his aura became extremely weak.
âIâm sorry. Itâs all my fault, all my fault.â
Seeing the dying Chu Feng, Yin Zhuanghong shed tears like rain.
She was feeling extremely sad and guilty. If he hadnât saved her, Chu Feng wouldnât have ended up like that.
âThis seems to be the first time Iâve seen you cry, girl.â
Although Chu Feng was covered in wounds and on the verge of dying, the corners of his mouth rose into a faint smile.
âIâm sorry. Iâm sorry. Itâs all my fault.â
Yin Zhuanghong apologized nonstop. She felt that she was the one that had harmed Chu Feng..
âItâs enough. Donât cry anymore. Iâm not dead yet,â said Chu Feng.
âClamor~~~â
Right after Chu Feng finished saying those words, blood-red gaseous flames began to pour from his body.
As the blood-red gaseous flames appeared, his wounds began to heal. Even his aura was quickly recovering.
âGirl, your embrace is quite comfortable,â Chu Feng opened his mouth and revealed a wide smile.
Compared to his previous smile, the smile on his face at that moment appeared very vile and disgusting.
âWhatâs going on with you?â
âWhy...?â
Yin Zhuanghong immediately let go of Chu Feng. She looked at him with confusion.
âGirl, were you thinking that by shooting that ruler you infused with your aura into the formation core, youâd be able to obtain the power of the formation core? Youâre simply too foolish.â
âOneâs aura is not enough. One must combine their aura with their blood.â
âHowever, even aura and blood will not be enough. Youâll also need this.â
As Chu Feng spoke, he opened his palm, and a special sort of spring water appeared in his hand.
âThat... is that the item that you said was inside that entrance?â asked Yin Zhuanghong.
âCorrect. This here is able to conceal my blood and aura. After theyâre concealed, the formation core will not be able to detect them, and will bring my blood and aura into the formation core,â said Chu Feng.
âThus, you were deliberately allowing yourself to be injured earlier?â asked Yin Zhuanghong.
âThatâs right,â Chu Feng nodded.
âThen... youâve obtained the power of the formation core?â asked Yin Zhuanghong.
âThatâs right. I think that we can go and rescue the elders of your Red-dress Holy Land now,â said Chu Feng.
âGreat,â Yin Zhuanghong nodded.
âWoosh~~~â
Right after Yin Zhuanghong said those words, her body was enveloped by blood-red gaseous flames. Then, she began to move rapidly.
âChu Feng, thank you.â
Yin Zhanghong looked to Chu Feng.
âWhat are you thinking me for?â asked Chu Feng.
âIf it wasnât for you, our Red-dress Holy Land would likely really suffer disastrously,â said Yin Zhuanghong.
âWeâre friends. Thereâs no need such things between friends.â
âHowever, there is one thing that I need to tell you. Youâd best prepare yourself for it,â said Chu Feng.
âWhat is it?â asked Yin Zhuanghong.
âDoes this Ancient Eraâs Blood Refinement Pond contain treasures?â asked Chu Feng.
âCorrect. It contains treasures from the Ancient Era. Merely, we still have no idea what exactly the treasures are, since weâve been unable to successfully open this Ancient Eraâs Blood Refinement Pond the entire time,â said Yin Zhuanghong.
âAs Iâve obtained the power of the formation core now, I am able to detect certain things in the Ancient Eraâs Blood Refinement Pond.â
âI know where the treasures are located.â
âHowever, that place is currently empty,â said Chu Feng.
âEmpty? What do you mean?â asked Yin Zhuanghong.
âSomeone has already retrieved all the treasures in the Ancient Eraâs Blood Refinement Pond,â said Chu Feng.
âSomeone took them already? How could that be possible?â
âCould it be that this Ancient Eraâs Blood Refinement Pond never had any treasure to begin with?â
âDid we discover it too late, and the treasures in the Ancient Eraâs Blood Refinement Pond were already taken by the time we discovered it?â
âBut, that shouldnât be the case. Our Red-dress Holy Land has guarded this Ancient Eraâs Blood Refinement Pond for tens of thousands of years.â
Yin Zhuanghong became very emotional.
The Ancient Eraâs Blood Refinement Pond was simply too important to them. Theyâd guarded it for so many years for the sake of obtaining the treasures inside. Yet, Chu Feng was saying that those treasures were gone. She found it very difficult to accept.
