Chapter 1678 The Fifth-Ranked Heaven Treasure
First Venerable and Iryens also noticed it.
They stopped right away and looked at each other. Then they immediately went to the crack and burrowed through it.
In the space behind the crack…
Fang Qiu, who was the first to pass through the crack, suddenly stopped in mid-air.
A beam of cyan light shone on his body from under his feet. Like a piece of jade, the cyan light was particularly eye-catching and beautiful.
At this point…
In Fang Qiu’s sight…
It appeared a huge crack.
It was a different space.
After passing through the crack covered with ice and snow on the surface of the mountain, Fang Qiu got to another area. Below it, where there was no snowfield, but a huge crack, which looked like the cracked crust itself forming a wide staring eye of an ancient giant.
There was no ice or snow.
There were only dark rocks that looked like coral reefs.
In the huge crack, a lotus, which was cyan in its entire body, was budding.
The cyan light shining on Fang Qiu was released by this lotus.
Fang Qiu was stunned.
Even First Venerable and Iryens, who closely caught up with Fang Qiu, were stunned in place upon seeing this lotus. Then, they instantly distanced themselves from each other.
“Candle Wick Cyan Lotus!
“It really is the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus!”
First Venerable looked at the lotus in the crack in shock.
None of them had expected this.
On the Hemalaya Mountain…
They would have encountered the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus.
This was the fifth-ranked Heaven Treasure on the Heaven Treasure List.
What was Candle Wick Cyan Lotus?
It was ranked fifth on the Heaven Treasure List.
It was a pure Yang Heaven Treasure with its entire body in cyan. It looked emerald, touched warm, and tasted crispy. It was a sort of pure Yang Heaven Treasure with enormous energy.
When it was ripe, the heart of the lotus seed looked like a candle wick, hence its name.
How could the pure Yang Heaven Treasure grow on the snow mountain?
They were all very surprised.
No wonder there was no snow in this huge crack, and not even an icicle.
With the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus here, all ice and snow had been evaporated.
At this very moment…
They all fixed their eyes on the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus. No one dared to act rashly.
Perhaps the Nirvana Organization was not short of Heaven Treasure, since they could even use the Heaven Treasure to set up a trap to kill people. However, this was not an average Heaven Treasure but the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus, which was ranked fifth on the Heaven Treasure List.
Even the high-ups of the Nirvana Organization saw it, they would be attracted in an instant.
A Heaven Treasure at such a high grade…
It was absolutely the best thing in the world.
Fang Qiu made up his mind not to let his enemy get it, even if he couldn’t obtain it.
Looking at the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus…
Fang Qiu noticed that the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus had not ripened yet. Every time the lotus became one-tenth riper, a layer of its leaves would extend out. Right now, there seemed to be two layers of lotus leaves that had not yet extended out.
It seemed that…
It shouldn’t be long before it ripened.
“It seems that we’re quite lucky.”
Fang Qiu looked at First Venerable and Iryens opposite of him and said, “I didn’t expect to meet such a rare thing like Candle Wick Cyan Lotus. This is the top-notch pure Yang Heaven Treasure ranked fifth on the Heaven Treasure List. Even for you and me, it is of great help and improvement. How would you like to divide it?”
As soon as Fang Qiu finished speaking…
First Venerable and Iryens looked at each other. First Venerable’s expression was indifferent, but Iryens’ brows instantly burrowed tightly.
According to their previous performances…
Among the three people present, without a doubt, First Venerable was the strongest. John Doe was next to the strongest, and Iryens was the weakest.
In this case…
The only way for Iryens to get the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus was to join hands with John Doe!
Iryens couldn’t wait to kill John Doe. However, in contrast to the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus, his desire to kill John Doe was not as strong as that to get the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus.
After all…
It was extremely difficult to encounter a rare thing like the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus in one’s entire life.
How lucky he was to encounter it!
So Iryens would not give up the chance, no matter what.
As for John Doe, he was right there.
Iryens thought that he could think of a way to kill John Doe at any time.
However, once he missed the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus, there wouldn’t be a second chance.
With this in mind…
Iryens glanced at First Venerable warily and then said to Fang Qiu, “I can put aside my hatred for now and join forces with you to deal with him. After getting the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus, I want half of it!”
Fang Qiu smiled indifferently.
Fang Qiu had guessed that Iryens would take the initiative to join forces with him to deal with First Venerable.
Wasn’t this exactly what Murican was good at?
“Okay.”
Fang Qiu didn’t decline but nodded in agreement.
Iryens immediately moved a little closer to Fang Qiu cautiously.
Iryens was very clear about one thing.
If First Venerable wanted to target him, it would be hard for him to hold on.
But…
Iryens had watched the battle between John Doe and First Venerable. Although John Doe was somewhat suppressed by First Venerable, as long as he joined in, he and John Doe could completely fight against First Venerable head-on.
“Do you really think it’s feasible?”
Hearing what Iryens said, First Venerable sneered and said to Iryens, “Even if you team up with him to defeat me, I am sure he will kill you the next moment. Do you think that he will give half of the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus to you and then let you go back to Murica?”
Hearing that…
Iryens immediately glanced at John Doe warily.
Iryens, who had just approached John Doe, quickly distanced himself a little from John Doe. Then he came to a position, keeping the same distance to John Doe and First Venerable. Now, they three formed an equilateral triangle, surrounding the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus in the huge crack below.
“If you join hands with him, he will also kill you.”
Fang Qiu said indifferently, “Moreover, he can kill you more easily than I do.”
Iryens’ face became gloomy and turned pale.
It seemed that his existence was very important to both John Doe and First Venerable. However, being in this position, Iryens knew very well that he was like a ball, at the mercy of John Doe and First Venerable.
Such a situation frustrated Iryens.
Iryens knew it himself.
Trusting either of them was not a good thing.
“I’ve promised to join forces with you, haven’t I?”
Looking at Iryens who was in a dilemma, First Venerable said, “Besides, I saved your life just now. If I hadn’t wanted to join forces with you sincerely, why wouldn’t I have let him kill you, and then I would have killed him? Why would I have bothered to save your life to go against me?”
Upon hearing this…
Iryens thought it seemed to make sense.
“In addition…”
First Venerable continued, “I know that Murica is eager to cooperate with our Nirvana Organization. If the cooperation of Murica is sincere, then I can give you the whole Candle Wick Cyan Lotus as a kind gift from our Nirvana Organization.”
Hearing First Venerable’s promise…
Iryens was instantly attracted.
He thought, “What First Venerable said is true. He did save my life just now.
“And the key point is…
“First Venerable is willing to give me the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus as a gift. Anyway, it’s worth a try.”
“Attack!”
Seeing Iryens in hesitation, First Venerable shouted in a deep voice. He took the lead to fly out and rushed toward John Doe.
Iryens gritted his teeth and immediately joined First Venerable to attack John Doe.
Meanwhile…
“Damn! You are falling out so quickly.”
Fang Qiu cursed angrily and waved the long sword in his hand, immediately confronting First Venerable and Iryens who were attacking him fiercely.
Fang Qiu knew that he had no choice but to take it head-on.
This place was not wide, so it was easy to be pushed into a dead end if he tried to dodge. By then, he would not even have a chance to fight back.
Of course…
Fang Qiu had no intention of running away.
Firstly, Fang Qiu would not let First Venerable get the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus, for he didn’t want to see the Nirvana Organization grow stronger again.
Secondly, since Fang Qiu came to this place that was above the huge crack, he had sensed a very strong aura hidden under the crack.
Fang Qiu guessed it.
This aura was supposed to be emitting from the guardian beast of the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus.
Moreover, judging from the growth of the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus, it was about to ripen. Once it ripened, the guardian beast would appear on time.
By then, it would not be as simple as three people fighting for it.
“Bang, bang, bang…”
The sounds of violent collisions were heard.
First Venerable and Iryens attacked Fang Qiu like crazy.
Fang Qiu wielded his sword and directly displayed the ancient swordsmanship. Numerous Sword Lotuses danced around him, blocking their attacks, and at the same time, he kept moving like a flash.
The ancient swordsmanship could easily resist the enemy’s attacks.
However, First Venerable’s strength was too powerful.
Even if Fang Qiu could block it, he would be shaken by the huge force. Therefore, Fang Qiu had to retreat while fighting, and constantly changed positions to stall for time.
First Venerable and Iryens seemed to have gone crazy.
The more they fought, the more violent they became.
It seemed that they wouldn’t stop until they killed John Doe.
Just then…
Suddenly…
“Buzz.”
A wave of cyan energy fluctuation rippled out from the huge crack beneath their feet.
At the moment when the energy fluctuation rippled…
Fang Qiu, First Venerable and Iryens were all stunned.
Then they all lowered their heads and looked toward the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus in the crack.
Over there…
The last layer of the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus’ leaves extended out.
With the opening of the last layer of lotus leaves, a small candle-like object appeared in the center of the lotus seat.
With a closer look…
The candlewick-like object was glowing golden red like burning flames.
It was emitting an extremely blazing aura.
At a glance…
It was like the flame on a lit candle, giving people a particularly bright and dazzling feeling.
The Candle Wick Cyan Lotus had ripened!
Seeing this scene…
They all instantly forgot that they were fighting against each other.
Especially First Venerable, who immediately flew out and rushed toward the Candle Wick Cyan Lotus quickly. He was going to pick it.
Just then…
“Hoo!”
An angry roar suddenly was heard from the huge crack of the abyss.
They all looked in the direction of the sound.
Over there…
A giant white shadow, looking like a human being, quickly leaped from the deepest part of the abyss crack and climbed up the cliff.
Its movement was extremely fast.
It was like it had encountered silver lightning.
In the blink of an eye, it rushed from the deepest part of the abyss crack to the top. With an incomparably sharp sound of breaking wind, it roared and suddenly jumped up high. Then it jumped down vertically and rushed toward First Venerable with incomparable ferocity.
“As expected, it is here.”
Seeing this, Fang Qiu was overjoyed. He immediately turned to stare at Iryens.
