Chapter 274: Chapter 274 Silently Making a Move Chapter 274: Chapter 274 Silently Making a Move This underground stone chamber had been sealed, so although thousands of years had passed, these spiritual dicines and spirit fruits still retained so essence and had not completely weathered away.
Shi Hao spread out his soul tentacle and imdiately sensed that so spirit fruits contained very strong spirit power.
After a brief mont of pause, suddenly, everyone rushed towards the altar.
——All were Self-Observation powerhouses; those from the Other Shore Realm simply did not qualify to intervene, otherwise they would surely be crushed into dust.
Boom!
The chaotic battle began, everyone wanted to snatch those spiritual dicines, and there were even a few ancient scrolls, which could very well be the secret cultivation techniques of the Gulang Country’s Imperial Dynasty, allowing them to glimpse the secrets of the Founding King Court.
However, there were simply too many Self-Observation powerhouses present, at least several hundred, so even a powerhouse like Xiao Bo could not possibly suppress everyone by himself.
Therefore, the battle was fierce, and no one could gain the upper hand; let alone monopolizing the altar, it was impossible to even grab a single spiritual dicine or a spirit fruit.
Such chaos… Could one perhaps pluck chestnuts from the fire?
Shi Hao’s heart stirred, and he slowly edged towards the fray.
“You’re crazy!” An Yuei exclaid, hastily reaching out to pull Shi Hao back.
That was Self-Observation powerhouses fighting in a lee; wouldn’t you be seeking death by joining them?
Even if you really could snatch a spiritual dicine or a spirit fruit, could you keep it safe?
So, why bother taking such a risk with your life if you’re likely to end up empty-handed?
Shi Hao smiled at her but shook his head, resolutely continuing forward.
Of course, he wasn’t going to openly compete with these Self-Observation powerhouses for spiritual dicines; that would indeed be madness.
But what set him apart from the others was that his soul could extend outward, and could even move objects.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Shockwaves from one attack after another ca towards him, making Shi Hao grimace; these were the aftershocks of Self-Observation level attacks, which ca wave upon wave like tides, still posing a great threat to him.
Fortunately, he finally managed to make it within a distance of five zhang.
In the eyes of others, he was just a presumptuous nobody, wanting to closely observe the clash of powerhouses.
He cautiously sent out the Soul Seed Puppet, crossing beneath the ground, then arrived at the side of a spirit fruit.
Hum, the Soul Seed Puppet erged and enveloped the spirit fruit.
Then, whoosh, the spirit fruit vanished.
The fierce battle raged on because no one had approached the offerings, and so the powerhouses naturally paid it no mind, continuing their struggle.
Shi Hao felt a secret thrill, as the Soul Seed Puppet began to pick and choose again.
Normally, to store an item into a Spatial Spirit Tool, one needed to wrap the item with Soul Force and then establish a connection with the Spatial Spirit Tool to complete the process.
However, this required a very close distance; otherwise, the intensity of the soul would drop rapidly with distance, making it impossible to wrap the item.
Therefore, in general, to collect an item, one would need to touch it by hand, which is also the limit for most people.
In Shi Hao’s case, being able to collect items from a distance of five zhang could only an that the quality of his soul was extraordinarily high.
There was no helping it; having fused with a sliver of Yuan Chengmie’s soul, just by the asure of soul quality, he was naturally stronger than the Self-Observation powerhouses.
Once more! Again! And again!
Shi Hao consecutively collected four spirit fruits and three spiritual dicines and then stopped.
He could not take any more, or the noticeable decrease in the number of offerings would surely raise suspicion.
He was about to retreat when suddenly, an unexpected change occurred.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The ground suddenly began to tremble violently, and then, it cracked apart in every direction, revealing large pits.
What’s going on?
Did the battle of the Self-Observation powerhouses cause this destruction?
But isn’t this mode of destruction a bit too bizarre?
Before the people could react, they realized that each large pit was emitting a trendous suction force, causing them to fall into them one after another.
Luckily, there were underground lakes beneath the pits, and with the sound of splashing, at least eighty percent of the people fell into the lakes, while only a lucky few did not.
This ti Shi Hao wasn’t lucky; he fell into the lake, and because he had previously gone to steal things, he was also separated from An Yuei and Cao Feiyan, ending up in different pits.
He scanned around and, using the dim light filtering down from above, he discovered that the lake was not big, but the walls around were all covered with caves, as packed and nurous as a beehive.
Before he could take a closer look, with a rumbling noise, the collapsed flooring above sohow restored itself, imdiately plunging the space below into pitch darkness.
Shi Hao imdiately realized that this was a trap.
It must have been that the Self-Observation powerhouses were fighting too fiercely, directly activating the chanism, causing a large number of people to fall down.
For a mont, because they didn’t know what would happen next, those who fell into the lake stopped moving, rely floating on the surface of the water.
However, no strange noises ca.
For example… no monsters ca crawling out of those caves.
Boom, soone harnessed the Fire Elent and produced a ball of fla.
The surroundings were still the sa as before, only the water in the lake was gently stirring ripples, quiet and silent.
After a brief pause, people swam to the shore one after another, at this ti, those with the Fire Spirit Root were in high demand, as people unconsciously gathered around them.
Humans are born yearning for light, although for so, their darkness cannot even be dispelled by the sun.
Shi Hao was very low-key; he simply stayed in the dark, listening to the others talk.
“Let’s see if we can climb up.” That was everyone’s first reaction.
Imdiately many people started to climb, but as soon as so had clambered up a few feet, they scread miserably and fell down again.
Screams were relentless; all those who climbed up kept falling off.
When these people were lifted onto the shore, one could see that their palms were all blackened, so even beginning to decay.
Poisonous!
Clearly, climbing up was no longer possible.
“We can only take one of these caves now.”
“But which one is the right one?”
“Nobody could possibly know, we just have to choose one at random.”
“Hurry up, hurry up, this place gives a very ominous feeling.”
People started forming teams, and those with the Fire Spirit Root beca the darlings; if one was strong, they naturally gained the allegiance of others, and even those who were weaker were eagerly recruited by several teams.
Shi Hao was observing the caves, looking for any potential clues.
“Excuse , our team is short one person, do you want to join?” A woman’s voice rang in Shi Hao’s ear.
Shi Hao turned his head and saw a short-haired beauty with a touch of baby-fat, looking at him expectantly.
By her side stood three other won with expectant faces as well, though not as coly as the short-haired one, and a little farther away were five young n whose looks were distinctly unfriendly.
