Chapter 57: No Mercy

Fang Yuan listened to their conversation and couldn’t help but sneer in his heart.

“You want treasure? Then it depends on whether you have the ability to get it or not.”

The few people who rushed over were all at the second layer of the Enlightenment Realm, the same layer as him.

However, judging from their clothes, they should be from a certain clan and are not ordinary itinerant cultivators, so they shouldn’t be weak, especially the leader, who was a layer higher than Fang Yuan.

Although Fang Yuan wasn’t afraid of any of them in a one-on-one fight, this group wasn’t the only threat at the moment.

Just as the other party had said.

There was indeed a group of mutated beasts in the depths of the forest attracted by the booming sounds, and they quickly approached.

Fang Yuan’s position was very awkward, and he was in between the two. As long as he made a slight move, he would be discovered by the other party.

No matter how fast Phantom Steps were, it was not instantaneous movement.

It was impossible to leave this place without the other party noticing.

However, Fang Yuan calmly took out a dark yellow talisman and held it in his hand.

With the injection of spirit essence, a pitch-black barrier that was as black as ink rose from the talisman and wrapped around his body.

Moreover, it continued to extend upwards, and its color and shape rapidly changed, becoming a part of the tree trunk.

This was one of the talismans Su Can gave Fang Yuan. It had the effect of concealing one’s body, allowing one to disguise themselves in relation to the environment.

One of the Gu masters brushed past this tree, but there was no difference.

“Strange, where did he go?”

The few of them searched the surroundings several times, but still could not find any traces of Fang Yuan.

“Could it be that I really blew him up?”

That leader was somewhat confused.

He clearly did not use his full strength, and even if he was at the weakest layer of the Enlightenment Realm, he could not have died under such an ordinary skill.

Could it be that this Gu master was only at the Foundation Establishment Realm?

But this did not make sense.

A Foundation Establishment master dared to go so deep alone?

Could it be that he did not know how dangerous the Scarlet Flame Mystic Realm was?

The mutated beasts’ roars in the forest were getting closer and closer, and it seemed that they could not waste any more time here.

The leader frowned and ordered, “Stop searching, we are leaving.”

The team members were stunned.

“Leader, we are not going to care about that kid anymore?”

“Let these mutated beasts play hide and seek with him, we will come back in two days to collect his corpse!”

The leader snorted, “Come, let’s add some lure for these mutated beasts! Let them get excited!”

Hearing this, the team members’ eyes lit up.

This was a good idea!

The female Gu master immediately took out a small ceramic bottle and placed it on the ground.

The few of them retreated more than ten meters before shattering it with a stone.

Bam!

The powder in the bottle scattered on the ground, scattering in the wind.

A smell very similar to Fang Yuan’s worm luring incense spread in the air.

“Let’s get outta here!”

The leader left with the others without looking back.

If the mutated beasts had arrived a little sooner, they wouldn’t have been able to leave.

Fang Yuan, who was in the dark, saw this scene and knew that it was time for him to take action.

The ice-cold worm-manipulation rod fell into his hand, and flames suddenly appeared.

“Where do you think you’re going?”

Fang Yuan’s mocking voice rang out.

Alarm bells rang out in the hearts of several people at the same time.

Among them, the leader reacted the fastest, retreating while throwing out ant-sized Gu worms to avoid Fang Yuan’s fatal blow.

But the female Gu master beside him did not react so quickly. Fang Yuan’s rod swept across, carrying the immense rock-shattering strength as it struck her lower abdomen.

“Wham!”

The female Gu master spat out blood and flew backwards, hitting a tree trunk at the side before falling back to the ground.

Not only that, after the dark flame attached to the rod touched her body, it directly entered her meridians.

It was like a flame touching gasoline.

The dark flame instantly ignited the spirit essence in her body, turning it into a raging flame, slowly eating away at her meridians and acupoints.

“Save... save me...”

The female Gu master cried out in pain, but the leader ignored her.

“You think I din’t know that you were going to ambush me?”

He laughed coldly, looking at the Gu worm that he threw towards Fang Yuan.

“After being hit by my Five Poisons Corpse Gu, even a fifth layer Enlightenment Realm expert would still...”

His voice stopped abruptly.

A number of giant Five Poisons Corpse Gu was clinging onto Fang Yuan’s body, biting and tearing.

In the end, the sound of weapons clashing could be heard.

The leader’s expression became extremely incredulous.

That sharp mouthpart could not even break through this kid’s skin?

The Five Poisons Corpse Gu relied on venom to hurt its enemies.

Without a wound, it naturally could not hurt people.

“Impossible! My Five Poisons Corpse Gu can even bite through the Pupa Gu’s defense, how can you block it?”

“Don’t be surprised.”

Fang Yuan only laughed lightly.

When liquid spirit essence was added to the White Jade Gu, even the Pupa Gu, which was known as the strongest defense Gu below Silver grade, was slightly weaker than it.

He wasn’t scared of an accident.

With just a few Five Poisons Corpse Gu, he could use the most venomous Golden Silkworm Gu to deal with it, he did not panic at all.

But he did not expect it.

He originally wanted to use the dark flame to restrain the strongest leader.

Who knew that the other party would give up on that female Gu master so decisively.

It seemed that this person was also ruthless.

Fang Yuan’s expression was cold. He opened his hand and the Bloodthirsty Gu flew out from his acupoints, splitting into tens of thousands of worms to surround these Five Poisons Corpse Gu.

In just a few breaths, the Bloodthirsty Gu had devoured all of them.

The leader’s expression changed. He suffered a backlash from his Gu worms’ death, so he spat out a mouthful of black blood and shouted.

“Let’s attack together, kill him!”

The other three Gu masters looked at one another, standing beside him, but did not attack immediately.

The leader gritted his teeth. “I will use my Qi to regulate my breath, just give me a few breaths of time!”

The three did not suspect him. They released their Gu worms to attack Fang Yuan from several directions.

In the end, when the leader saw them fighting, he retreated without thinking and turned to leave.

Seeing this, Fang Yuan used Phantom Steps to retreat, and a half-smile appeared on his face.

“Still chasing me? He has already run away.”

The three of them turned back at the same time. Sure enough, they could only see their leader running away.

“Shameless!”

“Despicable!”

“I want to kill him!”

The few of them were very angry about this, but they could only watch the leader run away.

Fang Yuan laughed lightly, “He cannot just treat you all as pawns. Once the mutated beast arrives, we will all die here, and the benefits will belong to him alone.”

A Gu master’s gaze flickered, as he suggested to Fang Yuan, “Why don’t we stop for now, leave this place first, and settle the score with him before we talk about anything else?”

“Alright, I did not attack you guys earlier, so there is no need for us to fight to the death.” Fang Yuan put away the worm rod to show his sincerity.

The three of them let out a sigh of relief.

In the short period of time they fought with Fang Yuan, they could feel Fang Yuan’s strength.

Even though it was three against one, they did not have absolute confidence in winning.

Seeing Fang Yuan stop, two of them slowly retreated.

The other person looked at the female Gu master who fainted from the pain, his eyes filled with greed, but he still looked at Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan’s lips curled up, “If you like her, bring her along. She was just crippled by my attack.”

That person nodded and silently carried her on his shoulder, turning around and running in another direction.

Fang Yuan’s eyes flashed with a ruthless expression, throwing the Golden Silkworm Gu onto the female Gu master’s body, injecting a venom that would not immediately kill her.

“I thought it would take some effort to deal with you, but I didn’t expect your alliance to be so weak before the mutated beasts.”

Fang Yuan sneered, hiding the Bloodthirsty Gu in his hand as he slowly followed the other two.

He could not be lenient towards his enemies!
