Chapter 1246 Leave This Place in One Minute
In desperation…
Since they had not made any preparations, the individual cultivators could only take out their mobile phones and search online, hoping to find useful clues.
On the outermost edge of the Spiritual Herb field…
Half of the members of Bloody Lion Mercenaries were dead, and only five people gathered together.
Among them…
Their commander, Andrew, had been taking medicine to heal himself after being seriously injured by the Egyptt guru. Luckily for him, his group had brought enough medicine this time, which helped him minimize his injuries.
“How many Holy Fruits do we have now?”
Andrew looked at his subordinate and asked, without paying any attention to the light curtain.
“Five.”
The person next to him answered, “We need five more to complete the task.”
“Our employer wants us to bring back ten Holy Fruits to save lives so we must complete this mission. If we fail to complete our mission, the employer and our group’s reputation will be ruined!”
Andrew narrowed his eyes and scanned the individual cultivators around him whose minds were either focused on the light curtain or their phones.
“Then what should we do?”
The person beside him raised his eyebrows and said, “There were a lot of Spiritual Herbs, but all of them were taken away. There were not many Holy Fruits there. I suppose the other forces might not have as many as we have. Can’t we replace them with Spiritual Herbs? Could it be…”
“Don’t talk nonsense.”
Andrew glared at the person and stood up.
“Boom!”
A stream of internal Qi erupted from his body and rippled in all directions.
The sudden appearance of his internal Qi gave those individual cultivators a terrible scare.
Everyone turned to look at Andrew!
“Everyone.”
There was no hostility as expected. When the individual cultivators turned around. Andrew said to everyone, “I need five Holy Fruits. Take out all the Holy Fruits in your hands. I’ll buy them from you!”
These individual cultivators who were scattered around heard what he said.
However, they sneered in disdain. Some even turned their heads away quickly to study the light curtain and ignored Andrew completely.
“I won’t sell mine.”
“I won’t either.”
“We won’t do that.”
A few cultivators refused him outrightly.
They might demand an exorbitant price if it were at ordinary times, but they had reached a special stage. The relic gate reappeared, and everyone was busy studying it. With several gurus and top forces from all over the world present, they believed that the relic gate would soon be opened.
When that time came, battles for the relic would begin.
Both the Spiritual Herbs and the Holy Fruits could help them gain some advantages in the competition for the relic.
Therefore…
Those who had the Holy Fruits were unwilling to sell them, no matter how high the price Andrew could offer.
“Then, don’t blame me for being rude!”
Andrew flew into a rage when these individual cultivators gave him the cold shoulder.
“Bang!”
An even more violent current of Qi power erupted from his body.
It seemed that he was ready to fight!
When this stream of Qi power came out…
It certainly alerted all the forces in front of them. Even several gurus ahead turned around to look at Andrew.
But…
They merely gave him a blank stare before turning around to continue their observation of the light curtain.
But here…
These individual cultivators looked thoroughly frightened.
Each of them did not belong to any force. Even if they temporarily stayed together, there was no mutual trust among them. Under such circumstances, how could they possibly resist the Bloody Lion Mercenaries?
It was true that Andrew, their commander, was wounded. Yet he could forcibly upgrade his strength and make himself a Half-step Guru.
Even the strongest of these scattered cultivators had merely reached the ninth-class. They were no match for him at all.
And besides, Andrew’s four subordinates were not weak either.
These cultivators panicked.
They moved forward step by step, gripped with fear and panic, trying to seek shelter from those large forces. Meanwhile, they were also afraid of accidentally provoking those large groups.
Ahead of them…
All the forces turned their heads to watch this scene.
“Everyone.”
Seeing that these major forces showed concern over the situation, Andrew lost no time in speaking candidly, “My team only wants five Holy Fruits, and we won’t enter the ruin nor disturb you.”
When they heard his message…
All members of influential organizations turned back to study the light curtain.
One less competitor was better than one more enemy.
Each of those cultivators who were on their own also heard that.
They knew no one would come to their aid.
At this critical moment, nobody wanted to be implicated. Therefore, even those forces with gurus wouldn’t protect them. Besides, why would they do that?
They gazed at each other in speechless despair.
Ultimately, these cultivators who were alone and had no backing could only take out their Holy Fruits.
“Anyone who has more than one more fruit should give away the extra ones. But if each of you only has one, then only stronger ones can keep their Holy Fruits!”
One of them stepped up and said.
In the end…
The five weakest practitioners reluctantly handed over their Holy Fruits.
They could make some money if they chose to sell it at the beginning. But now, they didn’t even get a penny, which made them very depressed.
Soon…
After getting enough Holy Fruits, Andrew left with his men.
These independent practitioners stayed behind to keep on observing the light curtain.
Over at the side…
The Huaxia team was precisely ten meters away from the light curtain. Fang Qiu was also sitting cross-legged on the ground, attentively watching the changes on the light curtain.
After staring fixedly at it for a long time, Fang Qiu found the murals on the light curtain were constantly changing. There was no sign of stabilization.
It couldn’t form any terrain with so many dimensions.
Under such circumstances, it was impossible to open the gate.
Besides Fang Qiu…
The others also seemed to have discovered this, so they all stopped their comparison and scrutiny. Subconsciously, everyone raised their eyebrows and looked at the light curtain and felt totally lost.
The Egyptt group…
The guru named Rahman stood up and glanced around coldly when he failed to open the relic gate.
When he saw those independent cultivators still observing the relic gate from afar, he instantly narrowed his eyes and shouted at them. “Didn’t all of you hear what I said earlier? You’re not welcome here. Leave!”
These casual cultivators were dumbfounded.
They had just gotten rid of Bloody Lion Mercenaries. How could a guru start to pick on them now?
“Firstly, we will not enter the forbidden area that you’ve set up. Secondly, we will not disturb any of you. Can’t we watch from afar?”
“That’s right. Why can’t we just stay to look at it?”
“How can you forbid us from looking at what was going on?”
“We won’t attack, and we can’t threaten you. What right do you have to drive us away?”
“We entered Egyptt legally. This is a scenic spot in Egyptt. We’re visitors enjoying the scenery. You have no right to ask us to leave!”
All these cultivators spoke at the same time, trying to use reasoning to convince their opponent.
“Humph!”
Hearing their critical remarks, Rahman let out a snort of contempt and raised the long spear in his hand, ready to start a fight.
“I’ll give you one minute to leave this place.”
Rahman’s order came as a shock.
These individual practitioners were immediately rendered speechless when they heard that.
Wasn’t this a clear case of bullying?
The independent cultivators were very aggrieved but couldn’t do anything about Rahman. The other party was a guru. As long as Rahman took action, they would be doomed.𝑓𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘄e𝙗n𝒐vel.𝘤o𝙢
Finally…
One after another, these cultivators could only withdraw and felt aggrieved and depressed.
“Damn, go and threaten Huaxia people if you dare. What’s the point of trying to scare us?”
“That’s right! Cowardly bully!”
“Egypttians, shame on you!”
As they walked away, these solo cultivators complained discontentedly.
Here…
Fang Qiu turned around and swept his eyes around the area.
He clearly saw the frustrations of those cultivators who were forced to leave. At the same time, he noticed they had left in the same direction as the Bloody Lion Mercenaries.
They could not afford to offend a guru.
However, if these people, full of grievance and resentment, encountered Bloody Lion Mercenaries along the way, a fierce battle might break out between both sides!
However…
This had nothing to do with Fang Qiu.
When Rahman drove away these independent practitioners…
He turned to look at the Greacie group.
The Greacie guru hadn’t yet shown his strength, so people in Egyptt considered them as powerless as those individual practitioners and intended to kick them out.
“So what do you think, eh?
Just as Rahman turned his head back, a middle-aged man in the Greacie group stood up and asked. He wore a cowboy hat with a waist-length cloak on his left shoulder. With a thin smile, he looked at Rahman and asked, “Do you even want to drive away the Styx members?”
As he spoke…
A mighty aura that only a guru could possess gushed out of him.
This guru was Mousolini, a hunter from Greacie!
“Styx!”
Hearing this name, Rahman narrowed his eyes and immediately frowned. Then he shifted his gaze from these Greacian people to the four major countries and other large forces.
As a result…
Though Rahman was a guru, his sharp glance didn’t alarm anyone. Instead, it made the people of the four major countries and those major forces laugh.
Their meaning was self-evident.
“Do you think we are the only ones who came here?”
Rahman’s frown grew deeper at the scene.
He didn’t know if the four major countries had sent any gurus here. With their superior strength, they must have gurus. Whether their gurus were here or not, he wasn’t courageous enough to attack any of them due to the formidable power of the four major countries. Once he launched an attack, they might target Egyptt. It would be troublesome, then.
He looked around.
There were few scattered small forces and independent cultivators.
Ultimately…
Rahman then settled his gaze on Fang Qiu.
Until now…
Fang Qiu was the only independent cultivator left on the scene. Although he didn’t enter the Huaxia camp at first, judging from their previous performance, Fang Qiu and these Huaxia people were close. So, Rahman didn’t know if he was with them.
“Rahman.”
Sensing his gaze, Luoyun asked blandly, “Do you have any issues with our Huaxia people?”
As Rahman heard his question…
He simmered with extreme anger.
However, he didn’t dare to vent his rage on Luoyun and had to keep his resentment to himself.
For him…
The fewer people fighting over the ruin, the better. This was why he took the initiative to drive away over half of those small and mid-sized groups and individual cultivators. However, there were still quite a few people left, and the difficulty of trying to gain control of the ruin didn’t decrease in the slightest. He had been anxious about it and that always made him peevish!
Rahman had no choice but to sit down again and continue to observe the light curtain.
Until sunset…
Fang Qiu noticed that the big black stone behind the light curtain had reached the top in the past few hours and stopped there.
Gradually, the ancient Egyptt murals on it stabilized!
