C282 There Was No News of Qi Tianming
"I see!" Mu Xiao heard what Sun Zhou said and muttered.
Although he had figured out the cause of the matter, Mu Xiao was not angry anymore. The matter had already happened. What was the point of being angry?
"By the way, this Blood Barrier should have existed for a long time. There were also people who came in earlier. Why did most of them leave safely?" Mu Xiao asked curiously.
If this was the case before, then there would be very few people who could leave this place.
"You don't know about this, but I don't know what's going on with this place. These three days, the strength of the Barrier has weakened, causing us to have no choice but to enter a period of rest. If I hadn't been awakened by the aura of the Heaven Piercing Tower, I wouldn't have appeared either! " Sun Zhou explained.
"I see!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiao understood. So all of this was caused by the Heaven Piercing Tower.
If Lu Feng didn't have the Heaven Piercing Tower, then they wouldn't have met Sun Zhou who was in hibernation. As long as they could leave within three days, there wouldn't be much danger.
This was also why if they didn't leave within three days, they would basically die without a doubt. Imagine, if all the undead woke up after three days, how could they possibly survive?
"Sun Zhou, you have already become an undead. What do you need the Heaven Piercing Tower for?" Mu Xiao asked curiously.
"Mu Xiao, there is a Mirror of Samsara on the sixth floor of the Heaven Piercing Tower. As long as I'm exposed to this Mirror of Samsara, I'll be able to reincarnate. And it's the one with memories. But if I reincarnate... I don't have any memories, so I naturally don't want to reincarnate!" Sun Zhou explained.
"So that's how it is!"
Mu Xiao nodded. He understood Sun Zhou's feelings, but there was one thing he had to tell him. After all, he didn't collect the Nine Heavens Spiritual Array, so he didn't know about it.
"What? You want to collect all the Nine Heavens Spiritual Array?" When Sun Zhou heard Mu Xiao's words, he was shocked. This reaction meant that he didn't know that the Heaven Piercing Tower needed this much.
He originally thought that as long as he got the Heaven Piercing Tower, it would be enough. When that time came, if he reincarnated, he would be a good man again eighteen years later.
Furthermore, it was very convenient for him to be reborn with his memories. It would be very convenient for him to return to the peak of his previous life.
However, after listening to Mu Xiao's words, it was as if he had been slapped in the face by reality. This was also the reason why Sun Zhou seemed especially dispirited for a moment.
"Sun Zhou, although it's not realistic for this kid to collect Nine Heavens Spiritual Array with his current cultivation base... You have waited for so many years, do you still need a few more years? How about this? Once the sixth level of the Heaven Piercing Tower is opened, I will let this kid come here. At that time, you will be able to reincarnate! " Mu Xiao said.
"Is that really possible?" Sun Zhou murmured.
He could wait for time, but he was afraid that the other party would not come back. When the time came, where would he find it? After all, given his current situation, there was no way he could leave this Blood Barrier.
"Sun Zhou, at least you and I have known each other for so many years. Can I lie to you? Also, Qi Tianming should be here as well. Even if I don't save you, I will definitely save him!" Mu Xiao said.
Qi Tianming was the previous owner of the Ruyi Devil Subduing Staff in Lu Feng's hand. Back then, he and Mu Xiao had entered the Heaven Piercing Tower together, and both of them had reached the ninth floor at the same time.
However, just as they were about to leave together, an accident happened. As for what happened next, Mu Xiao had no memory of it.
Of course, Qi Tianming didn't have much hope of surviving. After all, the Heaven Piercing Tower was shaking so violently at that time that it was impossible for him to leave.
Since he didn't leave, he must be dead. Now that Sun Zhou had died in the Heaven Piercing Tower, the possibility of Qi Tianming being here was very high.
"Mu Xiao, I have been here for so long, but I haven't seen Brother Tianming. I remember that the two of you should have been together at that time." Sun Zhou asked.
"What? You didn't see him? How is this possible? " Mu Xiao, who originally had some hope, was shocked.
This Blood Barrier shouldn't be big, and if Sun Zhou didn't see it, could it be that the opponent had already turned into ashes?
"It won't. Sun Zhou, are you sure that he isn't in here? Could it be that he has been sleeping for a long time and hasn't come out?" If he became an Undead, then once he hid, the other Undead would not be able to find him.
"I don't know about that, but I haven't seen him since I became an Undead." Sun Zhou shook his head.
Mu Xiao's heart sank when he heard that. It might be Qi Tianming who didn't come out, but it could also be something else.
"Old man, you can't have really turned into ashes, right?" Mu Xiao took a deep breath.
"Mu Xiao, perhaps there are other situations. Look, you are still alive on the ninth floor, or perhaps he is still alive. After all, the ninth floor is a place where you can leave." Sun Zhou said.
Of course, it wasn't impossible for Sun Zhou to say that. Therefore, after hearing what Sun Zhou said, Mu Xiao's mood became slightly better.
"Alright, it's getting late. You can leave first. When the sixth level of the Heaven Piercing Tower opens, I will definitely let this kid in." Mu Xiao promised.
"Alright, I'll trust you this time!" Sun Zhou responded, and in the next second, he disappeared from Peng Ke's body.
"Hmm?"
After Sun Zhou left, the people who were unconscious slowly opened their eyes, including Peng Ke.
As for Lu Feng, he was also lying on the ground at this time. Of course, he pretended to be unconscious.
"What happened?"
Peng Ke slowly opened her eyes and looked around, but she had no recollection of what had just happened.
"Senior Sister Peng, why are we all lying on the ground?" At this time, the other five girls also slowly stood up from the ground.
"Junior Brother Lu!"
When the girls stood up, they found Lu Feng lying not far away. They quickly walked over.
After being pushed by the girls, the unconscious Lu Feng opened his eyes. At this time, his eyes showed confusion.
"What happened? Why am I lying on the ground? " Lu Feng asked softly.
" Junior Brother Lu, are you hurt? " Peng Ke asked Lu Feng after checking herself.
"I don't think so."
Lu Feng checked himself and shook his head.
"Let's go. Let's get out of here!"
Since no one was injured, Peng Ke spoke immediately. After all, the coma just now was too strange.
Just like that, everyone left in a hurry. Of course, at the same time, they were also searching for traces of the Bloody Ginseng.
The Bloody Ginseng grew in a special environment, so not all places were suitable for it to grow. Hence, it was very normal for it to be difficult to find.
If the Bloody Ginseng was everywhere, then it wouldn't be able to show its value.
"Senior sister, let's go this way!"
As the group continued forward, Lu Feng suddenly pointed in another direction and said.
"This way?"
Peng Ke and the other girls were stunned when they heard Lu Feng's words.
"Senior sister, just listen to me for once. Anyway, we don't know where the Bloody Ginseng is. What if there is one over there?" Lu Feng said.
"Alright, let's go this way!" Peng Ke nodded lightly.
Just like that, after Peng Ke agreed, the group of seven changed directions and continued forward.2
"Hmm?"
However, after they walked for about ten minutes, they suddenly felt the smell of blood in the air become stronger.
Because the ground was covered with the blood of powerful warriors, there was a smell of blood in the Blood Barrier. But just now, Lu Feng and the others felt that the smell of blood in the air had become stronger.
After realizing this, Peng Ke and the others' eyes lit up. Because the Bloody Ginseng had a scent of blood, the smell of blood in the air became stronger. It was very likely that there was a Bloody Ginseng not far ahead.
However, while everyone was excited, Lu Feng, who was following closely behind them, seemed to be much calmer.
The reason Lu Feng suddenly asked to change direction was because he had listened to Mu Xiao's words.
Sun Zhou had lived here for countless of years, so he naturally knew the situation here like the back of his hand. Therefore, before he left, he asked about the location of the Bloody Ginseng.
As a ghost, Sun Zhou took the initiative to share his memory with Mu Xiao to show his sincerity. That was why Mu Xiao now knew the location of the Bloody Ginseng like the back of his hand.
Lu Feng originally thought that it would be difficult to find the Bloody Ginseng, but he didn't expect it to be so smooth now.
Now that they knew the location of the Bloody Ginseng, three days was more than enough for them to harvest a lot of Bloody Ginseng.
If everything went smoothly, then the Dimly Discernible Sect would definitely reap the greatest harvest.
"That... That is..."
After Lu Feng and the other three advanced for another ten minutes, a fruit tree emitting a faint blood-red light suddenly appeared in front of them.
The leaf of the fruit tree was dark red and it was not very big.
"Bloody Ginseng Tree!"
When they saw this tree, Peng Ke and the others revealed looks of pleasant surprise. After all, it had only been more than two hours, and they had already successfully found a Bloody Ginseng Tree.
Normally, a Bloody Ginseng Tree would only grow two to three Bloody Ginseng. Although there weren't many of them, even if they could find one, it was already very good.
"There isn't even a single Bloody Ginseng?"
However, when Lu Feng saw that there wasn't a single fruit growing on the Bloody Ginseng tree, his brows furrowed slightly. Could it be that the other sects had already gotten ahead of them?
"Junior Brother Lu, this Bloody Ginseng is growing on the root of the Bloody Ginseng tree. It isn't growing on the tree!" Peng Ke saw Lu Feng frowning slightly and explained with a smile.
Behind him, Peng Ke took out something similar to a shovel and began digging under the Bloody Ginseng tree.
Because she was worried that the shovel would break the Bloody Ginseng, Peng Ke's movements were very careful. This way, although the speed was much slower, everyone was looking forward to it.
