As the trio activated the trap in Dafo Temple, they obtained an item wrapped in yellow cloth, and during that time, the quiet Buddha statues started to move suddenly to surround the three players at the center. They began moving quickly, and each Arhat Buddha statue used their hands and feet to put on different postures.

What caused the trio to remain still for a long moment was that the presence of the countless Arhat Buddha statues released was that of elites at the beginning stage of Myth Realm, and all of them faced the same spot to stare at the trio.


Arhat formation!



Damn it, why didn’t I think of this in the start…
The female trap master was so anxious that she broke out in sweat. If she had the chance to make a choice once more, she would definitely destroy these seemingly solemn and sacred looking Buddha statues without hesitation.

At the very least, then they will only need to face a group of broken stones and not an Arhat formation made by more than one thousand Arhat Buddha statues with extraordinary presences.


Wh-what should we do now?


The other two did not expect that they would run into such a large trap once they obtained their quest item. They were already dumbfounded, and they stuttered when they spoke.


They don’t seem like they’re going to take the initiative to attack.

As expected of the woman, she was indeed a trap master who could consider every detail when she thought about solving problems. After staying for a while on the spot, she quickly noticed the abnormality among these Arhat Buddha statues. While they seemed frightening, based on the pattern of their movements, it was clear that they would not take even half a step forward.


Let me see…


This discovery allowed the trio to feel ecstatic.

The female trap master took a few steps forward tentatively.


They’re moving because of the item in our hands. Yellow Clock, take a few steps to that side.


Once the female trap master gave her orders, the trio swiftly figured out that only the person with the yellow luggage would have the Arhat Buddha statues’ hostility directed at them.

The other two would not stir up any reaction from the Arhat Buddha statues no matter how close they were to them.

The female trap master said,
I have good news and bad news. The good news is that the two of you can leave this Arhat Formation safely, and you won’t be attacked. The bad news is that if you want to bring the item out of the Arhat Formation, you will either have to slaughter your way out, or die inside.



There are more than one thousand Arhat Buddha statues here. If we slaughter our way out, we’ll have to endure more than attacks from at least one hundred Myth Realm martial artists within a short period of time…



Why don’t we go out first, and you toss the item out to us later?
One of them suggested.

The female trap master rolled her eyes.


You sure are idealistic. Forget about how those Arhat Buddha statues will definitely stop you. Even if you toss it, how far do you think you can even throw it?


As they stared at the Arhat Buddha statues that stretched out for hundreds of feet, the trio fell into silence once more.


Should we destroy them?



You can try,
the female trap master answered while she subconsciously rolled her eyes.

Even if they could destroy these Arhat Buddha statues, who were at Myth Realm, they would still need to spend a lot of time doing so. Besides, if they somehow activated the Arhat Formation, the situation would become worse for them.


We can’t just continue waiting! Evil King will come back soon!


The trio were a little anxious.

The female trap master asked,
Where is Luo Zhiheng?



He’s waiting to receive us outside. I think he has gone off to check that guy’s corpse. He’d take advantage of every opportunity he could to gain benefits for himself, and he’ll definitely not miss the opportunity to get the items that guy dropped.



Send him a messenger pigeon and tell him to pay attention to the Evil
King’s movements!



Alright!




While the trio were trapped by the Arhat Formation formed by more than one thousand Arhat Buddha statues, the trio’s other companion was sizing up the person who was about to die but was not dead yet, and he did so with the curiosity of a cat.

His chest had clearly been pierced through by a sword thrust, and blood was everywhere on the ground, but Luo Zhiheng discovered to his incredible shock that this person, who should have turned into a blurry mess by now, still stood where he was and did not fall. His chest would even move up and down after a long while. Hence, he could forget about ever hoping for the person’s face to become blurry. While he looked unfamiliar, his features were still very clear. All this showed that this person who had just endured a fatal sword thrust from Empress Yin was still alive!


Is your spirit animal a cockroach or something…? Why aren’t you dead yet?


Luo Zhiheng stared at the person in front of him and felt very gloomy.

‘Why?’

He had originally intended to think of stealing something from this person because his equipment was extraordinary, but he did not think that even after waiting for so long, this person had not died just yet.

This caused him to be conflicted.

He came here to steal something from a dead person. He was not here to kill!

This person seemed like he was in a terrible condition and seemed no different from the dead, to the point that he looked like he would die with just one poke.

But if he killed this person right now, he might end up getting himself a powerful enemy out of the blue.

It was clearly not worth it to get something random which might or might not be a fourth-echelon demon vessel and provoke a powerful enemy who seemed very powerful.

Luo Zhiheng stubbornly stood by the side and waited for the person to die naturally. If he did that, when this person went into the cycle of reincarnation, he will not see any of Luo Zhiheng’s information, and he could not come causing trouble to Luo Zhiheng.

However, after he waited for a period of time, he discovered that this person clung to life as stubbornly as a cockroach.

The terrifying, fatal wound had actually started to stop bleeding and start healing.

Even though his breathing was still as weak as a candle flame facing a violent gust of wind and his heart would only beat once after a long while, he was still getting better than the beginning.

This discovery caused Luo Zhiheng to feel so gloomy that he nearly rolled his eyes.


Well, aren’t you cruel?


Luo Zhiheng prepared himself to leave in disappointment.

Then, at that moment, the rumbling sounds from Arhat Formation attracted his attention.

He snapped into attention, and Luo Zhiheng saw a broken wall before he jumped on it and looked at the situation at the formation from the distance.

When he saw what was going on, his eyes instantly became bloodshot.


What the heck?! Is this a joke?!


The angry, imposing presence from the Arhat Formation made it look like a giant meat grinder, and anyone who looked at it from the distance would definitely be terrified.


They definitely ran into huge trouble!


This won’t do, I have to find them!


He mumbled to himself, and Luo Zhiheng forgot about the person who was about to die but still had not croaked. He sucked in a breath and was prepared to run into the Arhat Formation.

But at that moment, a mysterious and fast figure suddenly appeared in the distance.

His pupils shrank.

The breath Luo Zhiheng took was squeezed out of his lungs because of fear.


Evil King!


It was not difficult to guess what had happened. With how much of a ruckus the Buddha statues had been causing, it was impossible for Evil King to not have been attracted. Right now, perhaps Shi Feixuan had already been held back by Empress Yin, and she could not stop Evil King from entering the Arhat Formation.


God, please protect them! You can’t let Evil King enter the place, absolutely not!


Arhats, you must absolutely do your job!


As he watched Evil King swiftly get closer to the Arhat Formation, Luo Zhiheng started praying nonstop.

Unfortunately, no one knew whether it was a mistake to pray to God while he was a Buddhist or whether it was because he had bad character, but the scene Luo Zhiheng wished would happen did not show up.

The Arhat Formation seemed to not have noticed Evil King getting closer to them, and he did not face any obstruction when he entered. He was able to enter the Arhat Formation smoothly!


No way… Are those Arhats made of paper and are just there to scare others?!
Luo Zhiheng was incredibly furious. When he saw how fast Shi Zhixuan ran, he instantly became alarmed and anxious.

If Evil King rushed into the Arhat Formation, those three would be in danger.

In his anxiety, Luo Zhiheng did not notice that the person who had been so weak that he would topple over if wind blew at him suddenly released a barely audible moan. He moved his fingers laboriously and slowly opened his eyes.


Ha…


To Happy, that slash had nearly taken his life. He had been struggling at Death’s door for a long time, and he practically used all his strength to continue surviving.

Just as he expected, he obtained an understanding, but he did not receive any notification about his Marrow Cleansing Marrow leveling up.

Instead, after fighting desperately against the feeling of destruction, he received a notification that he obtained one willpower.


Ding!


Broke Empress Yin’s Heart Demon’s Sword! Willpower became stronger! Increase Willpower by 1!


‘Willpower!’

‘What… the heck is that?’

When Happy sensed light once more from the endless darkness, he could not help but curse at the notification that he heard.

If it were not because of the fact that Tendon Changing Classic had powerful healing abilities and not because of the tenacity brought by his high Affinity, he would have long since returned to Guanlin Temple…

‘Damn it.’

He had been struggling for a long time with this and suffering for so long, and he still had not understood the thing Mad Monk said he had to understand while he was caught in the throes of death.

The sword slash just now had been a great opportunity!

When he thought of this, Happy could not help but feel a little discouraged.

However, Happy still activated Tendon Changing Classic’s healing abilities at first moment. His body was weak and feeble, and the feeling of swaying on his feet was really annoying.


Hmm?


Right when he circulated Tendon Changing Classic once and restored some of his strength, Happy quickly noticed that there seemed to be another presence nearby.

He whipped his gaze to that side.

When he saw Cockroach’s gaze, Luo Zhiheng felt his heart grow cold. It was as if he had just fallen into an ice cave, and it was terrifying.

It was very difficult for him to imagine how someone with this sort of gaze could actually be stupid enough to fight against Empress Yin head on and nearly die.

In truth, Luo Zhiheng had suddenly heard movement behind him when he was prepared to leave. When he turned around to look, he saw that Cockroach, who had nearly died, had actually recovered.

The shock from this discovery was as great as seeing Evil King turn around to rush back into the Arhat Formation!

Happy said nothing, he quickly had the sharp look in his eyes fade away, and his qi faded away to make him appear like a normal player.

‘It seems like this person has been here for some time.

‘He didn’t attack me while I was in that state just now. Looks like he’s a pretty good guy.’

When he thought of this, Happy naturally had the wariness and hostility he previously had disappear.

But soon, Happy noticed the abnormality in Dafo Temple.

More than one thousand Buddha statues moved on the ground, and the rumbling sounds they formed made it seem like there was an earthquake nearby. It was difficult for him to not notice it, even if he did not want to.


What happened?


Happy suddenly remembered that Empress Yin and Evil King might still be around, so he quickly brought out an item from his Universe Bag using the strength he had recovered after tremendous effort.

Luo Zhiheng said nothing. But he was clearly a person with… rather unique thought processes. When his companions were in trouble, he could still shrug and try to look for the bright side despite the difficult circumstances, but when he turned his head around to see the item Happy brought out, his eyes were immediately fixed on the spot.

Fire Qilin Blood!

It was bright red, and it looked like it was about to fall off Happy’s hand while it exuded powerful vitality. There was no veteran World of Martial Arts player who was unfamiliar with the item.

But under Luo Zhiheng’s even more shocked gaze, he saw the mysterious Cockroach not frowning in the slightest and resolutely swallowing that incredibly valuable Fire Qilin Blood.

Luo Zhiheng found himself speechless. His heart was about to twist up into a knot because of that sight.

Fire Qilin Blood could be used to cure a person from the injured status after he or she died, and it could also increase the user’s qi once. It was even more valuable than Illusion Life and Death Pills!

‘This guy didn’t die… and he used such a valuable item to heal himself…

‘Why didn’t he die?!’

Luo Zhiheng cursed in his heart.
