That's how it is. If you're going to come on an adventure and search for treasure, then you have to be prepared for disaster to strike at any moment. This old brother obviously wasn't ready, he was too busy thinking about others getting treasures and being envious, and ended up like this.
Ye Feng was always on guard, and the multiple life-or-death moments had honed his senses to be extremely acute. At the first sign of danger, he swiftly dodged and retreated.
The monks were in an uproar, all of them scrambling to get away from the creature. However, it appeared too suddenly, and two of the monks were unfortunate enough to be turned into ice sculptures.
The monster rushed towards Wu Caiyan's direction, and everyone on the scene dodged in a hurry. Only Wu Caiyan was still standing in front of a side hall, directing his subordinates to break the seal, and Lao Mangzi was still swinging his wolf-toothed club.
And closer to the monster was a group of demons led by Wu Cai Chan, so the monster rushed straight towards Wu Cai Chan.
"Abomination!" Wu Cai Chan rebuked in a low voice, slapping the lotus petal throne, and a seven-colored light rushed towards the monster.
"Pffft!" The monster spat out a mouthful of icy cold mist, the temperature in the air plummeting drastically, as if winter had arrived in an instant. Everyone felt the chill pierce through their skin.
"A grain of rice can also shine like a pearl." Wu Cai Chan slapped the lotus petal throne, and a string of colorful lights greeted the cold fog.
"Ding, dong!" After a crisp collision, the monster's chill mist was broken by the petal emitted by the Witch Color Cicada Lotus Petal Treasure Seat.
Petals emitting seven-colored light from the air rushed towards the monster.
The monster saw Wu Cai Chan and didn't dare to mess with her, she was also a multi-year cultivator who had become a spirit, turned around and walked away, attacking the old blind man instead.
The old blind man was even more thorough, swinging his wolf-toothed club and smashing it into the monster's forehead. The monster's brains splattered everywhere as it fell to the ground.
"Hiss! What a strong cultivation, it seems that the strongest is still the old blind man." Ye Feng saw all of this clearly, Wu Cai Cai could only drive the monster away, while the old blind man was able to kill with one blow, the difference in their cultivation was clear.
With the threat of the monster gone, everyone began to move forward again, launching attacks on the various side halls. However, this time they were more cautious, as no one knew which hall contained treasure and which housed a monster.
It's strange to say, but every time the old blind man opens a side hall, there are treasures inside, while everyone else is not so lucky. Occasionally, they will open a side hall with hidden treasures, but most of them are monsters.
All sorts of monsters, all looked strange and weird. Judging from their shapes, Ye Feng estimated that these were all mutated monsters.
Somehow depressed, having lost the support of the inner world, Ye Feng did not dare to act recklessly here, and could only watch others get the treasure while he was empty-handed. It wasn't that he couldn't get it, but rather that he didn't dare to. Having seen a few instances of murder for treasure, Ye Feng thought it would be better for him to be more honest. Now that he had obtained the treasure, he had no way to escape.
With nothing better to do, Ye Feng gazed at the pagoda in the middle of the square.
The pagoda is about 70 meters high, with seven layers, and on the flying eaves hangs a black bell, which makes a tinkling sound when blown by the wind.
Everything in the side halls is sealed, this treasure pagoda is located in the center of the square, and its shape is extremely simple and atmospheric. According to convention, Ye Feng felt that the most powerful treasure should be sealed here.
But what exactly was inside, whether it was a treasure or a super monster, Ye Feng wasn't clear in his heart either, but it was worth a try.
The pagoda had no entrance, which meant that the shape of this pagoda was a whole, from the first to the seventh floor without any entrance, which further solidified Ye Feng's idea in his heart, and there must be a treasure inside.
Ye Feng circled around the pagoda, and many monks also developed an interest in it. However, after using a magic treasure to strike at it for a while, they found that there was no reaction whatsoever. Everyone retreated, thinking that instead of wasting their time on the pagoda, they might as well go search for treasures in the side halls.
The old blind man found that Ye Feng had been staring at the treasure tower, but he just snorted and didn't stop him. Instead, he put all his energy on the side hall.
Ye Feng thought that if the inner world could still bring in items, it would be great to directly collect the treasure tower and study it slowly when he had time. One day, he would crack the code of the treasure tower.
Now the inner world has lost its ability to produce income-generating items, but this idea doesn't seem practical either. After careful observation, Ye Feng found that this pagoda was firmly connected to the ground, as if it were one with the earth.
The small tower in his hand smashed fiercely against the large treasure pagoda, but there was no reaction at all, not even a sound, and the treasure pagoda stood still.
Ye Feng didn't take out the Dragon Slaying Knife, now all the spatial magical artifacts have lost their effectiveness and can't be put away. If he takes out the Dragon Slaying Knife again, it will be troublesome to put it back. The cultivators present are not ordinary people, especially the old blind man. Although his eyes are blind, his heart is more cunning than anyone else. If he recognizes the Dragon Slaying Knife, it would be a loss that can't be made up for.
After trying for half a day, Ye Feng found that Na Bao Ta was helpless and had to give up. He then shifted his gaze to the last main hall, which was the main hall of this place, located at the far end of the square, facing south and backing north. The entire main hall emitted a soft golden light.
"Bang!" Ye Feng's small tower smashed heavily on the main gate of the grand hall. Since the seals here required a strong force to break, he might as well try it out on this grand hall.
"Halt! You're not allowed to face the grand hall, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable!" The old blind man shouted loudly.
Some monks also launched an attack on the last building.
The old blind man shouted loudly and rushed to the front of the main hall in a few steps, blocking everyone's attack, with an inexplicable look of surprise on his face.
"Old senior, what's going on?" Ye Feng asked discontentedly. "You've already gotten several treasures, and now you're coming to stop us? You can't just eat the meat without letting us have some soup."
Most masters are dissatisfied with Lao Mang's approach, relying on their cultivation to surpass others. At the very least, Lao Mang has obtained five treasures, while most masters like Ye Feng have nothing to show for it, and naturally feel resentful.
But it's okay, what's even more unfortunate is that not only did he not get the treasure, but also lost his life.
Life is like that, as long as you're still alive, the desire to advance will never stop. In short, as long as you haven't died, you'll continue to be greedy.
"This treasure hunt ends here, no one is allowed to move this temple, otherwise the consequences are unthinkable, none of you can afford it!" The old blind man's expression was serious, with a posture that seemed to say "whoever dares to make a move will lose their life".
"Old man, you can stand and talk without getting tired, but we haven't gotten anything. Are we just here to make a wedding dress for you? What a joke! This grand hall must be sealing away some earth-shocking treasure. You're thinking of waiting until we leave and then swallowing it all by yourself, aren't you? That's not a bad idea." A cultivator sneered with a sly smile.
"Hmm, your words are completely correct. Indeed, a shocking treasure is sealed here." The old blind man spoke straightforwardly, without any concealment.
His direct answer stunned everyone, and they thought the old blind man would make all sorts of excuses.
"But there's one thing I want you to remember, it's absolutely not that I'm trying to monopolize, but rather there's another hidden reason." The old blind man's expression was solemn and serious, clearly he wasn't speaking nonsense.
"Please go ahead, senior." Ye Feng hastily asked.
"It's like this, the shocking treasure inside is sealed to suppress this treasure tower. With the treasure suppressing it, the terrifying existence inside the tower won't leave." The old blind man explained.
"Could it be that the treasure tower also seals an evil creature?" Ye Feng asked.
"Hmm." The old blind man nodded and said: "It's not just a fierce creature, but a terrifying one. Once it's released, I'm afraid everyone present won't be able to leave, and it may even affect the outside world. If the creature escapes from here, there may not be many people in the world who can subdue it. This will be a disaster. Think about it, who dares to take on this consequence?" The old blind man said sternly.
"Old man, no need to scare everyone with your words. Everyone here is not a fool. What are you thinking? Can't everyone see through it?" Not everyone would believe the old blind man's words, and some monks immediately expressed their dissatisfaction.
"Who dares to make a move on this grand hall, step over the old blind man's corpse first." The old blind man saw that he couldn't let these people give up, so he directly used force. He stabbed his wolf-toothed club into the ground with a "dang" sound, telling everyone that the wolf-toothed club in his hand wasn't just for show. If you want to get the treasure, first ask if my wolf-toothed club agrees or not.
The monk who had been speaking counterattacked the old blind man, looking around at everyone and stirring them up. "We're with him in this fight! So many of us can't be defeated by a single old blind man!" As he spoke, the monk pulled out a long spear and pointed it at the old blind man.
"Then take you down!" The old blind man's wolf-toothed club swung, smashing towards the monk's headtop, the reverse thorns on the club flashing with a chilling light that made everyone feel somewhat fearful.
"Take this!" The monk swung his long spear at the wolf-toothed club.
"Ka Cha!" The wolf-toothed club smashed the long spear in one go, and with a whistling sound, it directly slammed onto the monk's head.
"Bang!" The monk was smashed into a pile of minced meat and died miserably on the spot.
"Is there anyone else who doesn't value their own life, come on and try." The old blind man's move was ruthless, instantly stunning everyone into silence. Everyone looked at each other in dismay, not daring to make a sound.
"Old fellow, you're provoking public anger without even realizing it." Wu Cai Chan arrived with the You tribe's cavalry. Before entering this place, she had been tricked by Old Blind Man twice. As soon as Wu Cai Chan saw Old Blind Man, she was so angry that she couldn't speak coherently.
"Little girl, I advise you to be honest and not make trouble. I don't believe that before you came here, the old witch in your family didn't warn you that once you arrived, it's best not to cause any disturbance." The "old witch" mentioned by Old Blind Man was certainly Wu Caiyan's grandfather.
"How dare you insult my grandfather, I'll take your life." Wu Cai Chan said with an unpleasant expression. In the demon clan, her grandfather held the highest position and ordinary people rarely saw him. Now this old and blind guy dared to say such a thing, of course she wouldn't be polite to him anymore.
"Hmph, this is all just courtesy, even if I call him that to his face, it's still giving him face." The old blind man said with a big tone.
Ye Feng couldn't help but observe this old blind man again, too mysterious, with an understanding of this small world that no one could surpass, and his cultivation was extremely high.
Wu Cai Chan's grandfather's methods, Ye Feng had a clear understanding of, the old blind man didn't even put Wu Cai Chan's grandfather in his eyes, it means that the old blind man's cultivation was able to rival his, too scary.
"Then let me punish you, you reckless monk." Wu Caiyan slapped the lotus petal throne she was sitting on, and a string of flower petals flew towards Lao Mangzi. The petals shimmered with colorful light in mid-air, looking particularly beautiful.
Everyone's attention was focused here, at this time the seal of those side halls had been completely opened, the treasures were taken into the bags by the monks, and the monsters that ran out were all killed together, although some monks were injured, but not a single side hall was left behind.
Everyone gathered in front of the grand hall, all expecting the grand hall to be opened and see what treasures were sealed inside.
As for the old blind man's words, only a few people believed them, and everyone thought that releasing a terrifying monster had nothing to do with them, as long as they got the treasure, that was all that mattered, who would die because of this was clearly not what everyone cared about.
