Chapter 138: Did 138 just come for a day trip?

"Such a formidable Dragon Blood Stone!" Qu Shanhai let out a long sigh.

"Brother Qu, what should we do next?" Chen Pingfeng said with a pained expression. Although he had not been injured, the consecutive Heavenly Flying Immortal moves had left him feeling roiled internally, a very uncomfortable sensation.

"This brute force approach isn’t working; we must think of some other method," Qu Shanhai shook his head.

He now understood that the Defensive Light Cocoon was one with the Dragon Blood Stone. Unless they could deplete the stone’s power, a forceful assault would never break the cocoon. But if the power was exhausted, what use was the Dragon Blood Stone? Why make the trip at all? Was it just for a one-day tour of the Longyan Mountain range, along with an extreme experience of Heavenly Flying Immortal?

Feeling dejected, Chen Pingfeng pondered other methods. They had only heard of such Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures; this was their first encounter. What possibilities could they imagine?

"Senior Qu, is it our turn to give it a try now?" Mu Hanyan spoke up at this point.

"Go on if you must, but don’t disturb my thoughts," replied Qu Shanhai, clearly annoyed.

Had Mu Hanyan not spoken, Qu Shanhai might have nearly forgotten them. He had clearly seen that his own group had been defeated, and yet these youngsters still dared to speak up.

Even we Great Swordsmen have been left battered and bleeding, you still dare to try? Do you think of yourselves as Sword Masters? It’s practically a death wish.

Qu Shanhai was in a foul mood, with anger brewing and nowhere to vent it. Seeing Mu Hanyan courting death, he certainly wouldn’t stop her.

"Then we thank you, Senior," Mu Hanyan bowed and replied.

No matter what, they had finally gotten a chance and wouldn’t leave empty-handed. Mu Hanyan wasn’t recklessly naive; she simply couldn’t bear to give up so easily.

Moreover, she always had a suspicion: Star Illusion Thousand Machine had said she would be on her own for what was to come, clearly indicating no further assistance. But knowing Star Illusion Thousand Machine as she did, he seemed quite keen on the Dragon Blood Stone, and it wouldn’t make sense for him to watch her fail without doing anything, right?

No use thinking too much about it. First, she needed to seize the hard-won opportunity at hand.

Mu Hanyan also approached the Dragon Blood Stone and drew her longsword. Huayue and Zirong were inclined to assist, but Mu Hanyan stopped them.

Their current strength was too weak to be of much help. It was better to conserve their energy for emergencies—if something unexpected occurred, at least they would be there to catch her. Yes, that’s right, a catch! Catch her as she falls from the skies! She was prepared for the worst-case scenario.

Mu Hanyan had already experienced the Heavenly Flying Immortal a few times; the flying was indeed high and lofty, but the falling was brutal and heavy. The most terrifying part was that someone had even landed face first. She had no intention of becoming a heavenly maiden descending face-first.

Observing Mu Hanyan’s actions, Chen Pingfeng and the others exhibited disdain.

"Hmph, who knows which clan these juniors come from, how their elders taught them, with no self-awareness at all. They dare to attempt what even we couldn’t achieve! Are they deliberately trying to shame us?" a Great Swordsman behind Chen Pingfeng huffed.

To him, Mu Hanyan’s current behavior was a direct affront to them, Great Swordsmen.

"If they want to shame, they should see if they have the strength to. We’ve all ended up injured—should he dare to go, I fear even his life won’t be spared," another person commented with a cold laugh.

"Better dead; such young people, lacking self-awareness and not knowing when to advance or retreat, are bound to be cut down by a single sword stroke eventually. Better to die now and save trouble," someone even cursed with ill-intent.
