35: Chapter 35 Dragon Blood Flower, Success

In the next moment, Lin Changqing and his companion finally understood why no Cultivators nearby dared to approach them.

Shifting their gaze away from the Blood Phantom Scorpion, the two discovered a mountain of skeletal remains near the bamboo forest.

Some belonged to the Human Race, while others belonged to various Yao Beasts.

Generally speaking, these skeletons were all of the Martial King Realm and Martial Emperor Realm.

There were even existences of the Half-Step Martial Saint Realm.

Yet, the Cultivators and Yao Beasts active in the outer areas of the Beast God Cave were usually only at the Martial Emperor Realm at best.

It was clear that everyone's reluctance to approach this place was not simply due to the violent fluctuations of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi here.

"Lin Changqing, what do we do next?"

Turning her head to look at Lin Changqing, Chu Ruoqing asked in a low voice.

"Let me think of a way first."

Rubbing his temples, Lin Changqing said with a bitter smile.

A Blood Phantom Scorpion with Half-Step Martial Saint strength, impervious to swords and spears, and carrying deadly poison?

This was indeed a bit tricky!

Next, how was he going to take away the seven dragon blood flowers?

For a moment, Lin Changqing's mind began to race frantically.

Suddenly thinking of something, Lin Changqing's eyes lit up.

"What? You have a way?"

Seeing this, Chu Ruoqing asked with anticipation.

"There is indeed a way..."

"It's just..."

Lin Changqing first nodded, then shook his head.

"Just what?"

"If you have something to say, just say it!"

Glaring at Lin Changqing, Chu Ruoqing urged him.

"It's just that my method is a bit risky..."

Smiling awkwardly, Lin Changqing said slowly.

"Why don't you tell me first?"

Startled, Chu Ruoqing said.

"I have a secret technique that can take these dragon blood flowers, but after that, I'm afraid we'll have to run for our lives."

"Being pursued by a Half-Step Martial Saint Blood Phantom Scorpion, I'm afraid..."

Clearing his throat, Lin Changqing said weakly.

"As long as you can successfully take these dragon blood flowers, leave the running to me."

Hearing Lin Changqing's words, Chu Ruoqing said with full confidence.

"Are you sure?"

"If we mess up, we'll both get killed!"

Looking at Chu Ruoqing suspiciously, Lin Changqing couldn't help but say.

"Of course!"

"Is there any need for me to lie to you?"

Glaring at Lin Changqing, Chu Ruoqing said crossly.

"That's true."

"In that case, get ready to take me and run at any moment!"

Scratching his head, Lin Changqing said with a smile.

"Alright!"

Although she didn't know what secret technique Lin Changqing planned to use to take the dragon blood flowers, Chu Ruoqing still agreed readily.

When it came to running away, she was extremely confident.

It was just...

She was also very puzzled in her heart.

Where on earth did Lin Changqing's confidence come from?

What secret technique was so powerful?

To be able to take these dragon blood flowers right under the nose of the Blood Phantom Scorpion?

Although the Blood Phantom Scorpion seemed to be asleep, if the two of them came within a hundred Zhang of those dragon blood flowers, wouldn't they startle it directly?

Didn't the skeletons nearby prove enough?

In the next moment...

Something that left Chu Ruoqing dumbfounded happened.

A wisp of purple energy actually flew out of Lin Changqing's body, slowly drifting toward the dragon blood flowers.

From beginning to end, the Blood Phantom Scorpion was not disturbed in the slightest.

In fact, if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have even noticed this purple energy.

In the blink of an eye, the purple energy wrapped around the seven dragon blood flowers.

"Chu Ruoqing, get ready to run!"

Turning his head to look at Chu Ruoqing, Lin Changqing warned.

"Alright!"

Nodding gently, Chu Ruoqing agreed readily.

Instantly, a green scroll appeared in her hand.

At the same time, the seven dragon blood flowers fell directly into Lin Changqing's hand out of thin air.

"Go!"

...

Without any hesitation, Chu Ruoqing grabbed Lin Changqing and crushed the scroll in her hand.

In an instant, the two vanished from the spot.

The Blood Phantom Scorpion in the bamboo forest was instantly startled awake.

In a fit of rage, it gave chase in the direction Lin Changqing and Chu Ruoqing had fled.

Along the way, everywhere it passed was turned into scorched earth by its random attacks.

Unfortunately, however!

Its speed was ultimately a step too slow.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Changqing and Chu Ruoqing had completely disappeared without a trace.

On the other side!

When Lin Changqing and Chu Ruoqing reappeared, they had already left the Beast God Cave.

They had arrived at a place a hundred miles away from the Beast God Cave.

"Lin Changqing, how did you do it?"

Looking at Lin Changqing, Chu Ruoqing asked in utter disbelief.

"It's not very convenient to say..."

Shrugging, Lin Changqing said with an innocent face.

In fact, Lin Changqing was just telling the truth.

This secret technique was indeed not very convenient for him to talk about.

Because this secret technique of his actually came from his Second Master, Huo Wuji.

It was a minor secret technique for manipulating Pill Flame to achieve long-range attacks.

However, with a little sudden inspiration, he had utilized it to achieve miraculous results.

He had directly wrapped his Pill Flame with his own Taboo Power.

Then, just like that, without alerting the Blood Phantom Scorpion, he easily took the seven dragon blood flowers.

It could only be said that the credit went to the Taboo Power, which was simply too Advanced.

He couldn't expose his secret!

Since Lin Changqing had put it this way, Chu Ruoqing naturally couldn't pry further.

"Then next, should we find a way to obtain the flood dragon blood?"

"And head to the next forbidden area?"

Looking at Lin Changqing, Chu Ruoqing changed the subject and asked.

"My thoughts exactly."

Nodding in agreement, Lin Changqing said with a chuckle.

Afterward, the two left cleanly.

As they left, many Cultivators and Yao Beasts in the outer areas of the Beast God Cave began to flee for their lives.

Because the enraged Blood Phantom Scorpion had begun to slaughter everywhere.

Within less than the time it takes to burn an incense stick, the living creatures around the Buried God Lake were almost completely slaughtered.

If Lin Changqing were here, he would definitely gloat in their misfortune.

"As for guilt?"

"Nonexistent."

It was very simple: most of these Cultivators actually came from different forces.

Yet, almost all the people from these forces had tried to kill Lin Changqing and Chu Ruoqing to steal their treasures.

Furthermore, these fellows had been searching everywhere for the two of them, attempting to avenge their killed companions.

Therefore, why should Lin Changqing feel any guilt for their misfortune?

After leaving the Beast God Cave, Lin Changqing and Chu Ruoqing traveled toward another forbidden area at an unhurried pace.

There was a reason why the two were not in a hurry.

Primarily, according to the intelligence gathered by the Jubao Pavilion,

the clues regarding this flood dragon were not quite simple.

In Chu Ruoqing's words, this flood dragon was highly likely to possess strength above the Martial Saint Realm.

Therefore, they had to come up with a foolproof plan.
