Chapter 166 Ch 166: Dragon Blood Flower
After thinking for a few seconds, Alex hurriedly said: "Could you two kindly lead the way to the location of Dragon Blood Flower for me?"
Both of them exchanged glances. Right now it was only the two of them who knew about the changes in Burning Sky Plain. Previously, they actually wanted to finish him off when they first entered the cave to prevent any troubles from arising. But after seeing Alex's young age and suspecting that he might have come from a big background, they did not dare to strike first. On top of that, Alex's flattery made them feel extremely good, causing them to give up the idea of killing Alex. Bill said: "Oh well, originally we wanted to explore the Burning Sky Plain tomorrow morning, there's no harm in bringing you along. However, dangers lurk at every corner in Burning Sky Plain. Once you found the Dragon Blood Flower, you should better leave this place earlier to avoid dying miserably!"
Hearing this warning, Alex pretended not to have discovered their underlying meaning, and said gratefully: "Thank you Big Brother, after obtaining the Dragon Blood Flower, I will definitely repay the both of you."
He was extremely clear about what these two had in mind. After all, they had clearly told before that a Level 8 demonic beast is guarding the Dragon Blood Flower. This is the reason why they didn't dare to think of obtaining the Dragon Blood Flower. and choose to retreat.
In their eyes, as long as Alex dared to go near the Dragon Blood Flower, he'll definitely die.
"Alex, although we know the location of the Dragon Blood Flower, that place seemed to be changing its terrain constantly for some reason. So, even if we're in that area, we might not be able to find the Dragon Blood Flower instantly. We'll have to look for it for some time."
As he walked to the front, Bill suddenly turned his head and spoke to Alex.
At this moment, Kuntz also turned back and said: "However, both of us want to inspect the Sky Sky Plain, so we can't stay at a location for too long. This Burning Sky Plain has countless dangers, so staying alone is too dangerous for you. Even if you can't find the Dragon Blood Flower, you should follow us to go out of that place."
Alex hurriedly nodded, agreeing with them.
Actually, Alex knew what they were planning to do. They did not wish to kill Alex, but if he were to search alone and found a very rare other than the Dragon Blood Flower, wouldn't that be a huge loss to them? Thus, they wanted to keep Alex by their side and send him away as soon as possible.
Alex followed behind the two, stepping on the scorching grounds of what seemed like the Burning Sky Plain.
The rocks and mud in the Burning Sky Plain were completely black and as sturdy as metal. Alex was extremely surprised that the Dragon Blood Flower would grow in a place like this.
As they approached the Burning Sky Plain from afar, Alex felt that the temperature was indeed very high. As he stepped onto the Burning Sky Plain for the first time, he discovered that it was several times hotter than the hottest summer day and realized that if ordinary Spirit Origin Realm martial warriors were to come here, they would definitely be unable to endure for such a long time and would die.
"According to our memories, the Dragon Blood Flower should be in that direction. Let us go there first."
The three carefully tread on the Burning Sky Plain together and although Bill and Kuntz were showing as if they were looking for the Dragon Blood Flower, they were actually inspecting the phenomenon in the Burning Sky Plain. At this point, Bill raised some black mud and sniffed it, and then he furrowed his brows and said: "There is indeed some charred smell in this mud. Although the Burning Sky Plain is known as 'Burning Sky', there is no actual fire so how can this charred smell come about?"
Hearing him speak, Kuntz was also extremely perplexed.
However, both of them were still unable to solve the mystery, so they could only continue walking. To them, they wanted to finish Alex's cumbersome task first.
Alex also wished that they would hurry and help him with finding the Dragon Blood Flower since he has to look for the third volume of the Scarlet Flame Saber Technique as well. This volume was hidden somewhere in the Scarlet Flame Valley by Gatlin in a hurry because he was being hunted down by someone.
According to Gatlin, he had obtained the three volumes of Scarlet Flame Saber Technique in the Scarlet Flame Valley. But at that time, he was on run, he was escaping for his life because he had offended someone he shouldn't have. Thus, he chose to hide the Third Volume in the Scarlet Flame Valley. This is also the reason why he was unable to practice the third volume.
He immediately practiced the first volume, but somehow lost it. It was no wonder Asna's father was able to obtain the first volume of Scarlet Flame Saber Technique.
As for the second volume, he still had this in his hand that he gave Alex to practice.
After several hours, Alex, Bill, and Kuntz met a Level 7 demonic beast that was easily dealt with by joined forces of Bill and Kuntz.
"In the past, many people came to the Burning Sky Plain to look for the Dragon Blood Flower, but every one of them failed. The Dragon Blood Flower is very rare to come by and is also very difficult to obtain. You should be extremely careful."
"Each of us should try to stay within sight of the others as well, so we can assist each other if there is any danger. Alex, you are still young and inexperienced in battle and do not know the dangers in Burning Sky Plain. If there is any danger, just shouting loudly will do."
Bill instructed Alex once again and they finally started searching the area, but it was obvious that these two guys were inspecting the Burning Sky Plain.
The Dragon Blood Flower was only needed by Alex, and they had no intention of helping Alex.
Unlike Alex who was actively seeking the Dragon Blood Flower, the other two were doing their own jobs. Although there was indeed Dragon Blood Flower here, the chances of stumbling upon it are extremely low.
Although he was rather diligent and kept walking deeper, a total of four days passed and he still ended up empty-handed. At this point, Alex frowned and began feeling anxious.
Taking a deep breath, Alex suppressed his anxious heart and continued looking for it everywhere in the location he was brought to by Bill and Kuntz.
As for the other two, seeing Alex who was at a distance away to the left of them, both Kuntz and Bill glanced at each other. After a few seconds, Bill said: "It has already been four days. I originally thought we could just find a Dragon Blood Flower easily even if the terrain changed, and make that brat leave the Burning Sky Plain. After all, we had already seen that rare herb once before. But I never thought things would turn out this way!"
Kuntz looked at the charred earth and said: "These past few days the temperature of the Burning Sky Plain has been rising, and I seem to have this feeling that something may be approaching. It could be the appearance of a treasure. And since Alex is still here, I'm worried something unexpected might happen."
Seeing that his friend's eyes had let off a vicious light, Bill probed and asked: "Why don't we wipe him out immediately? That way we can have peace of mind. I have always felt that there is an unknown factor of Alex's that makes people feel fearful."
Kuntz looked at Alex's silhouette, and his eyes gradually turned vicious. At last, he finally nodded his head and asked: "Are you going to strike or should I?"
As Bill was about to say that he'll do it himself, he saw some flickering of faint purple light from some distance away and licked his lips, saying: "Forget it, I can see the Dragon Blood Flower."
Both of them rapidly headed towards its direction and, as expected, under a crevice in a huge rock was a Dragon Blood Flower.
"Alex, hey, Alex, we found the Dragon Blood Flower. It is here. Come on, hurry up and come!"
While Alex was in the midst of searching, Bill's voice echoed. He turned and looked at Bill who said: "Finally we have found the Dragon Blood Flower. Since you need it so badly, go and get it by yourself. But remember, there is a Level 8 demonic beast guarding it, so you should be careful. Also, after obtaining the Dragon Blood Flower, you should immediately leave this place."
'Of course, only if you stay alive can you leave this place!'
The latter sentence was something that Bill thought in his heart.
