The remaining two people exchanged a glance, also very excited. Their clan had always kept this scroll, but had never had the chance to use it. This scroll contained imnse power and was an ancestral relic.
Unexpectedly, just after entering Common Valley, they easily found this place relying on the scroll.
"What are we waiting for? Master, let’s follow the map to see the place where the ancestor fell, perhaps the ancestor’s legacy is here! Didn’t Ancestor Xing say the scroll could protect us?"
Xing Youke seed impatient.
He was an Earth Ranking genius, and if he could obtain the ancestral legacy, entering the Heavenly Ranking would not be a problem!
But Xing Wuya, as a mid-stage Inquiring Dao expert, was clearly not so reckless. He calmly said, "Don’t be impulsive! We must be cautious! Even when Ancestor Liquan was at the late stage of Ascension Dao here, he perished. Even with the scroll, we mustn’t let our guard down."
The remaining two, having been reprimanded, also cald down, gathering their full attention, cautiously proceeding forward. Each step they took was with a careful evaluation of their surroundings, ensuring nothing happened before moving forward.
However, after walking about ten ters, the three suddenly stopped. They exchanged a glance, slightly opened their mouths as if to say sothing.
But they only held their mouths open without closing them again.
"What are they saying?" Erha asked confusedly.
"They’re not speaking anymore," Xiang Beifei replied.
The three Xiongtou Race mbers remained still for a quarter of an hour, not moving at all.
Gradually, Xiang Beifei suddenly felt sothing was wrong.
He exclaid in shock, "Wait, are they—dead?"
"Dead?"
Everyone was taken aback!
"Are you sure?" Erha asked doubtfully.
"No mistake," Xiang Beifei said solemnly.
"Can’t be, I didn’t see anything attack them!" Erha scratched his head and said.
The three Xiongtou Race mbers were very cautious as they moved forward, but they had been paying attention to their surroundings; nothing appeared, and no force was transmitted to these three.
"Be careful, let’s get a bit closer and take a look."
Xiang Beifei and others moved closer, observing from afar.
Xing Wuya and the other two had lifelike expressions and postures, standing there most naturally and harmoniously, not looking at all like they were dead.
But the three had lost their vitality as if life had been suddenly stripped away from them.
They were indeed dead!
"When did these people die?"
Everyone looked at each other in astonishnt.
Because they had been watching the three, who hadn’t done anything the entire ti, just walked there.
Yet, inexplicably, they just died!
And they were still maintaining their final postures!
"What killed them?" Luo Shanyou asked with a frown of concern.
"I don’t know; I didn’t see clearly. Xiao Bei, did you see how they died?" Li Qianluo asked Xiang Beifei.
Xiang Beifei shook his head, "I didn’t either."
Erha took a sharp breath and quickly burrowed into Xiang Beifei’s pocket.
"Why are you so afraid of dying?" Xiaohei scorned.
"Even Feifei doesn’t know how those three died. This place is too dangerous!" Erha exclaid, poking half his head out of the pocket.
The strongest here was Xiang Beifei, but even he didn’t notice anything unusual, which was definitely not a good sign.
This place was too sinister; the three hadn’t done anything, didn’t even activate a formation, just walked normally for a couple of steps, and then they were gone. Such a situation was indeed bizarre.
Even if a blade had co out and turned the three into powder, Xiang Beifei and others wouldn’t have found it surprising. After all, this place was strange, and if sothing jumped out and attacked, they might be startled but could accept it.
But dying inexplicably in full view, that’s a problem.
"We better leave this place quickly," Luo Shanyou said.
"Yes, yes, quickly run, the farther the better," Erha nodded earnestly.
"But if we don’t figure this out, can we guarantee the sa thing won’t happen after we leave here?" Xiaohei said.
"Right, what if there’s another death formation waiting for us afterward? If we don’t figure out how they died, it’s unsafe," Li Qianluo said.
Xiaohei and Li Qianluo, driven by curiosity, both thought they needed to investigate this matter clearly.
Luo Shanyou, responsible for protecting everyone, had to consider from a security angle.
Erha considered it from the angle of fear of death.
Everyone turned their eyes to Xiang Beifei, needing him to make a decision, as he was the mainstay.
Xiang Beifei pondered for a mont and said, "You all wait here, I’ll go take a look."
"I’ll go with you."
Luo Shanyou’s responsibility was to protect Xiang Beifei. Although he disagreed with this decision, he had to stay by Xiang Beifei’s side since Xiang Beifei intended to go.
"No need, I’ll go by myself," Xiang Beifei said.
"But—"
"Don’t worry; I have the ancestral device and can run fast," Xiang Beifei said.
He carefully approached the three Xiongtou Race people but didn’t get too close, stopping about twenty ters away from them. When the three had walked to this point, nothing had happened yet.
This was a stretch of moist marshland, with damp soil emitting a strong fishy sll. Black plants grew on the soil, retaining the footprints of the three people.
But strangely, these three footprints seed not to be sunken but—protruding!
"What’s going on?"
