Dead!

The man who had been secretly in contact with Jiao Qingyuan, Lan Xi, was finally hacked to death.

Until his death, he uttered not a single word.

Until his death, he never figured out why this little thief of the Yangxiang Race from Yu Jing City could become a human.

Lan Xi racked his brain, yet he never imagined he would die in such a bewildering way.

Su Yue gasped heavily, cold sweat running down his back in fear.

He was truly frightened.

So close.

A slip in a hundred considerations, no matter how tightly guarded, there is always a flaw.

If not for Wang Anhu and his group jumping off the cliff, and if he hadn't happened to find and save them in this tunnel, he might have escaped today, but not without severe injury.

Lan Xi's greed also provided Su Yue an opportunity.

Otherwise, the precious ore he had painstakingly hidden would have been completely lost.

It was truly a close call.

Like a mantis stalking a cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

Su Yue never expected that he would become the mantis.

"I have seen this Yangxiang Race."

Wang Anhu stared at Lan Xi, then said with a grim face.

This Yangxiang Race member once participated in an attack on East Battle Dao; Wang Anhu fought him, a strong Grade Five warrior.

"He was the messenger Jiao Qingyuan secretly contacted. I hid in the tree, watching clearly from afar.

"Unexpectedly, he had also discovered the secret communication between the two Yangxiang Race cities."

Su Yue sighed.

Then, Su Yue crouched down and began to rummage through Lan Xi's Beast Selection Bag.

Fortunately, foreign races did not have defensive measures, and their Beast Selection Bags could be easily opened.

Lan Xi didn't have much on him, but each item was enough to shock them.

...

A Down-Air Nest Stone!

A piece of generation bark.

A crimson scale.

...

Su Yue examined it; the Down-Air Nest Stone was unused; no Down-Air Moth was inside.

This should be a brand-new item.

On the generation bark was recorded a battle technique of the Yangxiang Race, which required life strings to operate.

Lastly, there was the crimson scale.

Red Rhino Scale!

According to Wang Anhu, this Red Rhino Scale was crucial for an ordinary Martial Artist to break through from Grade Five to Grade Six, a breakthrough treasure that Lan Xi had painstakingly accumulated.

A huge gain.

Su Yue never expected to find such a great harvest on Lan Xi.

The Down-Air Nest Stone speaks for itself.

Taking it back to the Research Institute might lead to some discoveries.

The battle technique on the generation bark could currently only be translated by Su Yue, and it wasn't too complex. Su Yue memorized it and could also give the generation bark to the Research Institute.

As for the remaining Red Rhino Scale, it was the key to whether their group could return.

Yes!

All eyes turned to Wang Anhu.

He had been on the verge of breaking through to Grade Six long ago, just a step away.

Wang Anhu had tried every human Spirit Medicine, but due to drug resistance, he had been unable to break the final barrier.

This Red Rhino Scale might just be the chance.

"Su Yue, this Red Rhino Scale should have been yours, but now it's an emergency. I must break through to Grandmaster to give us a path to survival; I won't feign politeness,"

Wang Anhu nodded at Su Yue while holding the Red Rhino Scale.

"This is everyone's harvest, as long as they have no objections."

Su Yue nodded.

Given the current situation, anyone who still argued over these Spirit Medicines would be an idiot.

"Can you really break through?"

Jia Weisu asked with a frown.

"Ninety percent sure."

Wang Anhu thought for a moment, then said with a grave face.

"Su Yue, weave me some nets and hang me on the cliff so I'm suspended from all sides. This way, the Seven Rings can better absorb Spiritual Qi, increasing the probability of breakthrough,"

Wang Anhu added after some thought.

"Okay!"

Once Su Yue spoke, the others waited on site while he and Wang Anhu headed straight to the east exit of the East Battle Dao.

Swish, swish, swish!

Su Yue quickly built a suspended seat using the Beast-Selecting Sinew in his hand. It was rudimentary, only accommodating one person, and looked extremely dangerous.

"Wait for my good news, everyone."

With the Red Rhino Scale in hand, Wang Anhu resolutely leaped off the cliff, then sat on the few strands of Beast-Selecting Sinew.

At that moment, Wang Anhu was like a yo-yo suspended in mid-air; as the cold wind from the cliff whipped around, he swayed dramatically, looking as though he might fall at any moment.

"This cultivation method is somewhat terrifying."

Su Yue remarked, fearful that Wang Anhu might accidentally fall.

Yet Wang Anhu's cultivation method also sparked some inspiration for Su Yue.

Sitting on the ground to meditate did not allow the qi ring to absorb the Spiritual Qi from below.

But sitting suspended in the air, exposed to wind and rain, surrounded by Spiritual Qi, surely the speed would be faster.

This was also a clever little trick.

"Once things here are settled and I go to Wet Realm to cultivate, I'll also find a cliff to hang myself up and cultivate.

"But it's too dangerous."

Su Yue nodded, returning to the tunnel.

He believed Wang Anhu could break through.

According to him, this Red Rhino Scale was indeed a powerful treasure.

...

With Lan Xi dead, nothing could obstruct them anymore.

Using Lan Xi's Beast Selection Waist Bag, Su Yue and his group began transporting the source ores back in batches.

At the east exit of the East Battle Dao, Su Yue had already widened the cave entrance in advance. They first transported the source ores here, then easily moved them onto the planks.
