Chapter 231: Even Ye Yan is no Match for Them, So Who Can Face Them?
Ye Yan glanced at Wang Wu beside him.
Wang Wu immediately understood.
"Elder Ye has slain a Bloodroot Dragon and obtained two portions of its essence bloodroot. He's willing to trade them for Scarlet Blood Spirit Valley."
"One portion of essence bloodroot for twenty-five catties of Scarlet Blood Spirit Valley!"
Wang Wu placed his hands on his hips and shouted arrogantly.
The other elders revealed peculiar expressions upon hearing this.
Ye Yan immediately sensed something was off.
Essence bloodroot was such a precious item that it should have been in high demand.
If he named his price, these elders should have been scrambling to outbid one another.
But now, those strange looks—what did they mean?
He Tianchou coughed lightly. "Elder Ye, your price is a bit steep."
Wang Wu was indignant. "Essence bloodroot hasn't appeared in centuries; it's normal for it to be expensive."
"If you've got the guts, go hunt a Bloodroot Dragon yourself and see if you can find any essence bloodroot."
He even let out a derisive laugh as he finished.
He Tianchou chuckled helplessly. "That's true. I couldn't possibly hunt a Bloodroot Dragon on my own—it would take at least two elders teaming up to take one down."
After a brief pause, he suddenly laughed slyly. "But just because I can't doesn't mean someone else can."
The other elders, hearing this, couldn't help but burst into laughter as well.
Ye Yan and Wang Wu both frowned.
Wang Wu was about to speak again when Ye Yan suddenly realized who He Tianchou was referring to.
"It's Shen Mo," he said coldly.
He Tianchou smiled. "Elder Ye is indeed perceptive."
"To be honest, Elder Shen is also capable of single-handedly slaying Bloodroot Dragons, and his prices are much lower than yours."
"I mean no offense to you, Elder Ye; I'm just stating the facts."
Ye Yan took a deep breath, clenching his fists tightly.
That damned Shen Mo! Ruining his plans again!
Wang Wu leaned in and whispered, "Elder Ye, should we..."
"Head out. Keep hunting Bloodroot Dragons and seize all the essence bloodroot!" Ye Yan said coldly.
To weaker elders, the Bloodroot Dragons were disasters and threats.
But to someone as powerful as Ye Yan, they were rare opportunities.
Of course, if he encountered those two exceptionally strong Bloodroot Dragons, he would have no choice but to flee.
Ye Yan didn't see this as a disgrace.
In the entire Bloodvine Valley, no one could match those two formidable Bloodroot Dragons.
Running away from an unwinnable fight—what was wrong with that?
"Let's go, let's go! I'm heading out to hunt Bloodroot Dragons. Who's teaming up with me?" He Tianchou laughed heartily.
"Count me in!"
"I'm in too!"
Immediately, two elders volunteered to join.
"By the way, Hall Master He, there have been reports of two exceptionally strong Bloodroot Dragons appearing in the north and south recently. Be careful not to run into them!" one elder warned solemnly.
He Tianchou nodded. "Don't worry. Even Elder Ye isn't their match. Do you think I'd go looking for trouble with them?"
"I'll be avoiding them as much as possible!"
After He Tianchou and his team left, the remaining elders began murmuring among themselves.
It was clear to everyone that among those two exceptionally strong Bloodroot Dragons, one was bound to evolve into a Bloodroot Dragon King.
And when that Bloodroot Dragon King emerged, it would spell disaster for them all.
But even Ye Yan couldn't defeat them.
So who could possibly take them on?
...
Meanwhile...
Shen Mo had already left the dwellings and was venturing deeper into the inner valley.
He never forgot his ultimate goal.
Trading for Yin Fiend Orbs and Scarlet Blood Spirit Valley with the elders was merely a side task.
"The place where the Bloodroot Dragon King resides must also be where the Forest Sword Art and the Celestial Vine Remains are located."
"I need to find it before Ye Yan and Xiao Fan do."
Over the next month, Shen Mo used the dwellings as his base, exploring outward in all directions until he reached the farthest edges of Bloodvine Valley.
Finally, on the last day of that month, he found his target.
Ahead, the sound of an earth-shattering battle erupted!
Shen Mo cautiously advanced, using the blood-red trees as cover to conceal his presence.
Through the gaps in the branches, he saw two colossal Bloodroot Dragons, each forty zhang tall, locked in a savage battle.
Scarlet blood soaked the ground, turning the area into a crimson swamp.
The surrounding bloodvine plants and trees had been completely trampled, leaving only a few lucky bloodvines standing isolated on the ground.
The terrain in the area was almost entirely leveled.
For dozens of miles around, it was a zone of death, devoid of life.
Such battles were almost constant within Bloodvine Valley.
But these two Bloodroot Dragons were extraordinarily large.
Far larger than any Shen Mo had ever encountered before!
"Without a doubt, a Bloodroot Dragon King will emerge from one of them," Shen Mo mused.
He had clearly arrived ahead of schedule.
According to the original sequence of events, it was Ye Yan who first discovered the slumbering Bloodroot Dragon King.
By then, the Bloodroot Dragon King had already been decided, and its strength was so overwhelming that it required Shen Mo, Ye Yan, and Xiao Fan to join forces to barely defeat it.
But now, Shen Mo had found them before that critical moment.
He had the chance to strike before the Bloodroot Dragon King emerged—or when the two were both critically wounded.
He could snuff out the Bloodroot Dragon King before it even had the chance to rise!
This was the power of being able to see the panels of life.
Shen Mo suppressed his aura entirely, crouching silently in the shadows, watching the two behemoths tear into one another.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Scarlet tendrils fell from midair, crashing into the ground and splashing blood everywhere.
The wounds on the two Bloodroot Dragons multiplied.
Their vitality weakened with every passing moment.
The battle was reaching its climax!
The victor would be crowned king, and the loser would meet its end!
The larger of the two Bloodroot Dragons seized an opening, driving its claws deep into the chest of its rival.
With a resounding crack, it ripped out the smaller dragon's heart, formed from condensed root tendrils, and swallowed it whole.
The smaller Bloodroot Dragon let out a mournful cry, as if its strength had been drained away in an instant.
The larger dragon followed up with another swipe, tearing the smaller dragon's head clean from its body and devouring it in massive gulps.
Roar!
Though severely wounded, the large Bloodroot Dragon threw its head back and let out a triumphant roar.
The sound reverberated with the joy of a victor.
On its head, a small crown began to take shape, forming rapidly.
Lowering its head, the great Bloodroot Dragon prepared to consume the corpse of its defeated foe.
Only by devouring it could it truly become the Bloodroot Dragon King.
But at that moment, an intense red flame surged forth, condensing into a massive flame blade thirty zhang long, slashing down mercilessly!
Nine Suns Divine Phoenix Art, Second Form.
Red Lotus Flame.
And added to it, the Yuan Infant Divine Art: Blazing Sun Source Light.
The power of this strike was pushed to its absolute limit!
The Bloodroot Dragon immediately sensed the threat of death.
It had no choice but to dodge with all its might.
But Shen Mo had been building up this attack for some time, and the dragon's massive size made it slow to react.
In an instant, the red flame blade crashed down.
It cleaved through the dragon's left shoulder and front limb, taking a portion of its torso with it!
The severed tendrils didn't even reach the ground before being incinerated by the intense flames.
At the wound, the fire fed on the blood and burned even fiercer!
Roar!
The Bloodroot Dragon howled in rage, its cry filled with indescribable agony.
It twisted its massive head, straining to see its attacker.
It found itself staring at a diminutive figure.
Compared to its massive bulk, the figure seemed utterly insignificant.
The Bloodroot Dragon's fury deepened.
Instead of retreating, it slammed the ground with its massive legs and charged forward!
Blood splattered everywhere.
Mud flew in all directions.
"Hmm? Instead of fleeing, it's coming straight at me?" Shen Mo murmured, a faint smile tugging at the corners of his lips.
