Chapter 93: Everything is Ready
The one-eyed man and the group of martial artists who had rushed to the front began to melt away like ice cream under the sun.
The one-eyed man’s skin turned into blood, revealing his exposed white bones beneath.
The other peak innate experts met the same fate.
Not to mention a portion of the acquired martial artists, who didn’t even have the chance to scream before transforming into a puddle of flesh.
This scene left many people pale-faced.
A sharp smell of blood filled the air, almost penetrating everyone’s cells.
Some female martial artists turned ashen at the sight and immediately vomited.
Even Liu Jiaoxue wasn’t much better, her lips pressed tightly together, her petite body trembling slightly.
Jiang Yuan Ji and his companions had beads of sweat forming on their foreheads.
At this moment, they couldn’t help but recall when Bai Chen had urged them to leave quickly.
If Bai Chen hadn’t warned them back then, they all might have perished here!
The eerie scene caused everyone to halt in their tracks.
Even though the divine object was right in front of them, they needed to have the ability to claim it.
Otherwise, the one-eyed man and those peak innate experts would serve as a cautionary tale, turning into mere nutrients for the plants here.
Next year, they would only make the land even more fertile.
“What on earth is happening? What happened to them?”
“Look at these plants; there is something in the air!”
Many martial artists began to notice something was off and started to murmur among themselves.
Liu Jiaoxue was filled with confusion, her gaze unconsciously turning to Bai Chen.
If anyone could help her resolve her doubts, it was the Bai Chen before her.
“Mr. Bai, what is this?”
Bai Chen slightly raised his eyes.
“This is colorless miasma. Your strength is too weak; you can’t enter without external help.”
Hearing Bai Chen’s words, Liu Jiaoxue’s expression changed, and she clenched her fists.
They had come so far, almost at the finish line, but were they going to be stopped here?
Liu Jiaoxue’s heart was filled with intense unwillingness.
Surveying the crowd, she noticed that peak innate experts made up ninety percent of them.
As one of the few acquired martial artists present, competition was inherently difficult.
Yet despite this, she still felt reluctant to give up!
“Hahaha! What are you all waiting for here?”
“Exactly! Throughout history, treasures belong to the capable; do you folks finally have some self-awareness?”
At that moment, two rough laughs echoed through the air.
In the distance, two figures, one tall and one short, swiftly approached, stepping lightly on the treetops with a single touch that covered a hundred meters.
Seeing this spectacle, everyone couldn’t help but gasp in shock.
“Peak innate, half-step grandmaster experts!”
Within just a few breaths, the two figures landed on the ground.
“Hahaha! It seems we are still quite perceptive!”
Huang Longfei and Sun Zichu scanned the surroundings, exuding a powerful aura.
The presence of the peak innate experts overwhelmed all the martial artists present.
“The tall one and the short one, coming together, could they be the notorious Huang and Sun duo from Shu Du?”
Upon hearing someone recognize them, the taller Huang Longfei broke into a grin.
“It seems our reputation carries some weight in the Nine Provinces!”
The crowd felt a shiver at these words.
The duo’s fame stemmed from two reasons: one was their half-step grandmaster strength, and the other was their well-known preference for men!
After they arrived, a few late innate stage martial artists followed closely behind, including Song Hanjing and others.
Huang Longfei squinted his eyes, surveying the crowd.
“Everyone, the secret treasure is right in front of us. Why are you holding back?”
Sun Zichu glanced at the puddle of flesh in the distance, grinning as he wrapped his arms around Huang Longfei, who was a head taller.
“Darling, I’m afraid they don’t want to go because something is blocking their way!”
Seeing Sun Zichu’s affectionate reference and action caused the martial artists present to freeze in disbelief.
They felt as uncomfortable as if they had swallowed a fly but did not dare to show it.
Such was the influence of the duo’s strength.
“Hmph! Fortunately, we already knew the news before coming here.”
Huang Longfei pulled out two small pills from his pocket, giving one to Sun Zichu before swallowing the other.
“You all probably don’t know, but this is colorless miasma! It’s recorded in ancient texts.”
With a grin, Huang Longfei swallowed the medicinal pill and strode directly into the miasma.
To everyone’s astonishment, the miasma that could melt peak innate martial artists had no effect on them.
This scene widened everyone’s eyes, igniting a flame of excitement in their hearts.
“What kind of medicinal pill is that, capable of avoiding the miasma?”
Standing in the miasma, Huang Longfei looked proud.
“This is an anti-miasma pill, not something you lot can even touch.”
“I think you should head back home early; this is not a place for you!”
Upon hearing Huang Longfei’s words, the crowd felt a surge of unwillingness.
“Who has anti-miasma pills? I am willing to buy!”
However, since the anti-miasma pills were crucial for the competition, who would be foolish enough to sell them?
Song Hanjing scanned Wei Laifu and the pair of sisters.
“If we cooperate after entering, then stick with me; if you want to leave, we’ll go our separate ways.”
Wei Laifu immediately followed closely behind Song Hanjing.
“Song team, I will definitely stick with you!”
The pair of sisters exchanged glances before bowing to Song Hanjing.
“Thank you, Song team, for bringing us here and giving us anti-miasma pills.”
“Qi Wan and Qi Ying are very grateful! We will act independently from here.”
Song Hanjing nodded, took the medicinal pill, and prepared to enter with Wei Laifu.
This scene sparked envy among the surrounding martial artists.
“No wonder he is a martial artist from the Song family! His generosity is impressive! He even gives anti-miasma pills to his teammates!”
Soon after, a few martial artists took out anti-miasma pills, but none were peak innate martial artists.
These people came for the divine medicine and had received inside information beforehand, preparing their supplies early.
At that moment, Bai Chen slowly rose, drawing everyone’s attention.
“Could he be another peak innate martial artist?”
The crowd buzzed with speculation.
Song Hanjing focused on Bai Chen, squinting his eyes, shocked within.
The pair of sisters also stared at Bai Chen in astonishment.
“He actually made it here alive!”
Bai Chen stood up and lightly surveyed the area before looking toward the thatched cottage in the center of the lake.
In his perception, the divine object was about to appear.
It would be best to head over quickly.
With this thought, Bai Chen stepped straight into the miasma.
Everyone couldn’t help but widen their eyes.
“That kid is crazy! Does he want to get himself killed that badly?”
“Yeah! He was just sitting there when I arrived; now he’s going in without eating the anti-miasma pill?”
“Ah! Truly fearless like a young calf; even peak innate experts wouldn’t dare to be so reckless!”
Song Hanjing narrowed his eyes, staring at Bai Chen’s back.
Meanwhile, Huang Longfei and Sun Zichu looked at Bai Chen with unfriendly expressions.
Every additional person entering meant one more competitor.
Since the other martial artists had all revealed their peak innate strength, they couldn’t act against them.
But Bai Chen…
Huang Longfei and Sun Zichu exchanged glances, grinning at each other.
