Volume 1 The Hidden Dragon in the Abyss Chapter 7 The Temptation of Power

The cold moonlight sprinkled on the pitch-black earth, and the black iron tree looked cold under the silvery moonlight.

After the explosion in the forest, there was still a chaotic aura in the air, and the surrounding beasts did not dare to approach.

A cold wind blew, and Luo Lan opened his eyes faintly.

She didn't get up immediately, just lay on the ground, quietly watching the night sky.

The stars twinkled in the sky, and the bright moon sprinkled the light, but it could not shine into her heart.

She couldn't remember how long it had been since she had been in the ruins, but she knew she must have been there for a long time.

Every day in the ruins is an ordeal, and she is always on the lookout for dangers that may occur at any time.

Here, life becomes fragile and morality pales.

People here can do anything to obtain blood essence.

Licking blood on the tip of a knife all day long, killing has long become accustomed to her.

Silently feeling his physical state, Luo Lan's little face was a little solemn.

"Damn brute!" Loren scolded.

In the spirit ruins, once injured, the situation will become very dangerous.

The figure of the extremely dangerous person appeared in Luo Lan's mind, and his face was a little ugly. Once he finds out that she is injured, she may not have a good end.

After adjusting her breath slightly, she slowly stood up, and the clothes covering her body naturally slipped down her body.

Looking down at his air-exposed body, Luo Lan froze slightly.

After the gray wolf blew himself up, she was always on the lookout for possible dangers around her, and did not notice the damage to her clothes.

Picking up the clothes that had fallen on the ground, thinking of the dusty man from before, Loran gritted his teeth.

After a moment of hesitation, she put on Qin Yi's clothes and walked slowly towards the periphery of the Spirit Ruins.

Until her injuries heal, she has to avoid risks as much as possible.

Among the spirit ruins, she has too many enemies!

......

......

Qin Yi bowed his body and slowly groped his way forward in the forest.

He had to get out of the place where he was hiding as soon as possible, and Loran wouldn't let him go when he woke up.

This black iron forest is full of dangers, and in addition to the ferocious beasts, the most dangerous ones are probably the living.

He had seen Luo Lan's killing of Sun Yong before, and the drop of blood that had been integrated into their bodies should be something that could be plundered.

If his conjecture was correct, the Blood Demon had thrown them here just to kill each other.

"Who?"

Suddenly, a cold shout sounded, Qin Yi was startled, and immediately stopped, slowly squatting down, trying to hide his figure through the bushes.

"Don't hide, I know you're there, come out!"

A dark and thin teenager stared closely at the bushes where Qin Yi was hiding, and slowly approached Qin Yi.

"Come out quickly, or you're welcome!" the thin black boy stopped and stared coldly at the bushes in front of him.

After a moment of silence, Qin Yi sighed, knowing that he couldn't continue to hide, he hid the black iron branch in his hand in the bushes and stood up.

"Zhou Cang!"

After standing up, looking at the thin black boy in front of him, Qin Yi was a little surprised, Zhou Cang was one of the several teenagers who were arrested with him.

"Qin Yi?" Zhou Cang was also a little surprised when he saw Qin Yi.

"I've met Sun Yong before, have you seen a few of the others?" Qin Yi asked.

The five of them were thrown down almost together, and it shouldn't be too far away.

Sun Yong and Zhou Cang met him, and he believed that the other two people were also nearby, but he didn't know if they were dead or alive.

Listening to Qin Yi's words, a hint of discoloration flashed in Zhou Cang's eyes.

"Uh...... No, I don't. I've been around here for a few days and haven't even seen a single figure. ”

Qin Yi glanced at Zhou Cang and said, "Oh, it's a pity, I still think that the five of us can walk together to be safer!"

"I think so, too, it's safer to be around more people. Zhou Cang said with a smile and approached Qin Yi.

Seeing Zhou Cang's approach, Qin Yi was a little nervous in his heart, and slowly took a few steps back.

"Don't come here!" he jerked out the black iron branch hidden in the bushes and pointed at Zhou Cang.

Zhou Cangleng paused for a moment, and a playful smile appeared on his face, "Interesting...... How did you find out?"

He felt that he had nothing to doubt, and he didn't know why Qin Yi was able to discover his intentions so quickly.

"You said you didn't see a few of them, so how did you get the jade pendant around your neck? If I'm not mistaken, this jade pendant should have been left to him by Tiemuta Aunt!"

Qin Yi looked at Zhou Cang coldly, the black iron branch in his hand flickering with cold light in the night.

"I see, that's ......," Zhou Cang suddenly said.

"Tiemu has already been poisoned by you!" Qin Yi asked.

"Hmph, not only Tiemu, but also Wang Quan. They are all a group of weak people, and the weak are not qualified to enjoy this creation!" Zhou Cang snorted coldly.

“!!!”

Hearing Zhou Cang's admission, Qin Yi was shocked in his heart, he couldn't imagine that with the same person from the village, why did Zhou Cang change so much?

In order to gain power, he did not hesitate to attack his fellow villagers.

"Don't worry, you'll be going down with them soon!"

A trace of greed flashed in Zhou Cang's eyes, and he slowly approached Qin Yi.

"Do you think this thing in your hand can pose a threat to me?" Zhou Cang looked at the black iron branch in Qin Yi's hand, his face full of mockery.

After fusing the blood essence in the bodies of Tie Mu and Wang Quan, he could clearly feel the explosion of his strength.

The surge of power made him feel unprecedented confidence, and for the first time, he felt a powerful thrill.

Suddenly, Zhou Cang threw a punch and smashed it towards Qin Yi fiercely.

Qin Yi hurriedly blocked the black iron branch in front of him, and Zhou Cang's fist smashed on the black iron branch, pressing the black iron branch out of an astonishing arc.

Knock –

A huge force came down his arm, and Qin Yi took a dozen steps backwards until he hit a black iron tree before stopping.

"Is this the power of that drop of blood!?"

Qin Yi rubbed his somewhat swollen tiger mouth, a little shocked in his heart, it was hard to imagine that just three drops of blood could make Zhou Cang's strength gain such a big boost.

Zhou Cang sneered, didn't give Qin Yi a chance to breathe, continued to bully himself, and threw out another punch.

Qin Yi hurriedly dodged, and Zhou Cang smashed Qin Yi's head on the black iron tree with a fist, and the black iron tree trembled, leaving a fist mark on the body of the tree.

Qin Yi was so shocked that he broke out in a cold sweat, if he hit the circle just now, his head would probably bloom.

Zhou Cang saw that he missed the blow, and slammed his knee into Qin Yi's abdomen.

"Hmm-"

Qin Yi felt a sharp pain in his abdomen and let out a painful moan.

He clutched his stomach and slowly slid down against the black iron tree.

Zhou Cang sneered, stretched out his hand to grab Qin Yi's neck, lifted him up, and pressed him against the black iron tree.

"See, this is the power that that drop of blood brings to me!" Zhou Cang's eyes flashed with excitement, and he looked a little crazy.

"Hmm...... Hmmm......"

His neck was tightly choked by Zhou Cang, and Qin Yi couldn't breathe at all.

His face turned red, and the green tendons gradually burst out.

"You can go with confidence, I ...... that drop of blood in your body"

"Ahem...... Ahem......"

Qin Yi fell to the ground and coughed violently.

Zhou Cang's face was incredulous, looking down at the blood hole in his chest, his eyes full of fear.

His hands clutched tightly to his chest, but blood kept spilling from between his fingers.

Knock –

His body fell heavily to the ground, his face was full of unwillingness, and he didn't blink an eye!

Qin Yi looked at the corpse on the ground, his heart full of doubts.

Just when he felt that he was about to die, he felt something fly out of his neck, and then Zhou Cang died inexplicably......

"Whew-"

Taking a deep breath, Qin Yi slowly stood up and walked to Zhou Cang's corpse to stop.

A drop of scarlet blood condensed and formed on Zhou Cang's corpse, exuding an alluring aura.

"Alas~" Qin Yi looked at Zhou Cang's unwilling appearance and sighed.

He stretched out his hand and caught the blood droplets suspended on Zhou Cang's corpse, and the blood droplets fell on his palm and melted directly into it.

Suddenly, a warm current swam among his limbs, and the pain left on his body during the previous fight disappeared in an instant.

"This is the power brought by blood droplets?" Qin Yi clenched his fists, feeling the changes in his body carefully.

He found that this time his strength increased more than twice as much as the first time, in fact, it was not difficult to understand, Zhou Cang absorbed the blood drops in Tiemu and Wang's body, and the blood drop energy in his body increased.

"Is there really something magical in the world?" Qin Yi frowned. There are some doubts.

If there really existed something like blood droplets, then wouldn't it have been monopolized by those immortal cultivation sects a long time ago. And with blood drops so precious, why should the blood devils use them on mortals?

Qin Baiyi couldn't figure it out.

He shook his head, now was not the time to think about these things.

Qin Yi squatted down and carefully looked at Zhou Cang's corpse.

"Huh?"

He let out a suspicious sound, reached out and touched his neck, and found that a piece of bone on his neck that he had been carrying since he was a child had pierced Zhou Cang's chest at some point.

Removing the bone fragment from Zhou Cang's wound, Qin Yi looked at it carefully.

The bone fragments are long in shape, with a sharp tip and thin ends, making it look like a shrunken bone sword.

The white color, densely engraved with runes that Qin Yi didn't recognize, looked a little mysterious.

There was a warm feeling after starting it, and Qin Yi could vaguely feel that there was a faint connection between himself and the bone fragment.

"Were you helping me just now?" Qin Yi asked secretly in his heart.

In the past, he had always thought that this bone fragment should be a relic left to him by his parents, but now it seems that the bone fragment is not simple.
