CHAPTER 217 UNEXPECTED THING

The spirit manipulators of Crimson Dragon Group were anxious to see a Centipede-snake rampaging

and rushing to the Heaven Divine Lotus as they waited for the Rainbow Glow Unicorn to appear. If the

Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds became the food of the Centipede-snake, the Rainbow Glow Unicorn

would definitely never reveal itself. That meant all the work they had done these days would be for

nothing. If so, it also meant they would fail to carry out their task and get past the Commander in Chief.

The two captains of the teams made a quick decision to guide their team members and rush to the

Centipede-snake along with their tens of two-star or three-star spirit-manipulated beasts.

The spiritual manipulators in this team were all above the Earthly Stage, and there was no doubt that

their strength was exceptional. Guided by a three-star spirit-manipulated beast, several two-star spirit-

manipulated beasts skimmed over the head of the Centipede-snake as quickly as a flash. And then

they turned around to start a brutal attack on the head of the Centipede-snake.

The Centipede-snake was distracted by being attacked. It gave up its attempt to consume the Heaven

Divine Lotus and sprayed venom in the direction of the spirit-manipulated beasts in the air. The spirit

manipulators of Crimson Dragon Group landed in front of the Centipede-snake. Together with their

spirit-manipulated beasts, and at their earliest speed, they began a brutal attack. The Centipede-snake,

who was attacked by them, died in a second.

Some of the stronger spirit manipulators had fought for the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds, but the sudden

appearance of Centipede-snake caused a high death toll. This created an opportunity for the spirit

manipulators who had left behind.

Eventually, a number of these spirit manipulators rushed towards the cliff. Tod and his team were

among them as well. Hob's team was in front. They didn't join the previous fight because Hob had

anticipated that the spirit manipulators who approached the Heaven Divine Lotus in advance would not

be able to get it. With that in mind, he realized casualties were inevitable. And Hob, a person who knew

nothing but scheming, would like to steal the Heaven Divine Lotus when the others were all off guard.

At this point, Hob was arrogant, and he thought his plan was brilliant. If they had joined the fight, they

would have also suffered serious losses like the other teams.

All the spirit manipulators thought it was the right time to get the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds. Roaring

sound came from all directions. In an instant, more wild spirit-manipulated beasts charged and came

into sight.

Including the spirit manipulators of the Crimson Dragon Groups, all the spirit manipulators were

frightened by the riot and did not know why so many wild beasts had appeared. The precious Heaven

Divine Lotus Seeds had the ability to attract not only spiritual beasts, but also wild spirit-manipulated

beasts. Yet their appeal could only reach a certain distance, and almost all the wild spirit-manipulated

beasts nearby had been killed. Logically speaking, there should not be so many wild spirit-manipulated

beasts now, particularly the three-star ones.

In fact, nobody realized that there was an open bottle attached to the tail of the dead Centipede-snake.

At some point, the teams of spirit manipulators were surrounded by wild spirit-manipulated beasts of all

directions. The spirit manipulators who had reached the cliff immediately stopped their actions,

because they feared that their movements would attract the attention of the beasts, and that the beasts

would see them as threats.

"Damn it! Cover me up. I'm going to gather the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds," Hob said while looking up

at the Heaven Divine Lotus over the edge of the cliff. They were the closest team to the treasure and if

they could reach the edge of the cliff, the three Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds would be in their

possession. So he was not willing to give up and asked his teammates to cover him up.

"Hob, you can't just take it and leave us all alone. Remember, we had a deal," one of the spirit

manipulators answered.

"Don't you trust me? Damn it! Am I the kind of person who's going to betray you? You've got my word.

Trust me, please," Hob blurt out with a curse. However, with a sly grin flashing on his face, he actually

had a different plan. 'You dimwits! Will I wait for you with the three Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds in my

hand and share them with you? You're just too naive, ' he thought. Then he continued to rush to the

cliff.

Seeing his movement, a few wild spirit-manipulated beasts chased Hob. But Hob's teammates blocked

their path.

The other teams did not want to be left behind, so they tried to rush to the cliff after they saw Hob's

actions. But they were blocked by groups of wild spirit-manipulated beasts and couldn't go forward.

Feeling the threat from the spirit manipulators, the wild spirit-manipulated beasts immediately launched

the attack.

A lot of spirit manipulators were shocked and terrified by the wild spirit-manipulated beasts, and they

knew they were no match for these beasts.

Just then, the teams from the Crimson Dragon Group surrounded other spirit manipulators.

"We need to get rid of these wild spirit-manipulated beasts before we gather the three Heaven Divine

Lotus Seeds," one captain shouted.

All other teams agreed with his suggestion. Although the treasure was significant, there was no point in

getting the treasure without being alive.

Guided by the teams of the Crimson Dragon Group, the spirit manipulators began a ferocious war

against the wild spirit-manipulated beasts.

At the same time, like a wall lizard, Hob climbed the cliff as fast as a wink till he reached the top of the

cliff. He was the only one there! Three Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds were right before his eyes.

"Ahh!" Hob grinned in triumph. Then, in a big stride, he raced to the Heaven Divine Lotus. He could

already feel the victory in his hands, as he was only a few inches away from having the Heaven Divine

Lotus Seeds.

At this moment, something unexpected happened. Hob suddenly felt a cold force attacking him.

Although he withdrew his hand and moved aside without delay, his face was slashed and oozed blood.

"Who's the son of a bitch that dared to sneak up on me from behind?" Hob turned his head to check,

and then he was frozen. "It's you," he said with rage. "You are... Ohh, it is really you." content rights.

The man who made a sneak attack on Hob was no one else, but Rocky.

When Rocky blocked the Centipede-snake, Tod and other spirit manipulators retreated. He was not a

fool to waste time on fighting with this Centipede-snake. He tried to confuse the Centipede-snake by

tricking it into running through the bushes along with him in the Spiritual Fairyland, and then got a right

chance to accomplish his plan. He climbed on the back of the Centipede-snake and tied the bottle filled

with magical saliva on its tail.

When the Centipede-snake had been chasing Rocky in the Spiritual Fairyland, a lot of wild spirit-

manipulated beasts smelt the magical saliva and were drawn.

It was a very interesting scenery. The Centipede-snake was chasing Rocky, while a large group of wild

spirit-manipulated beasts were chasing the magical saliva on the tail of the Centipede-snake.

Afterward, Rocky brought the Centipede-snake to the area near the cliff. Not long after, the Heaven

Divine Lotus produced Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds. Attracted by it, the Centipede-snake was out of

control and raced to the Heaven Divine Lotus.

Sensing the aura of the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds and magical saliva, the wild spirit-manipulated

beasts following Centipede-snake gathered in this region.

It was all instigated and controlled by Rocky. He climbed from the other side of the pit to the edge of the

cliff when everybody was distracted by the Centipede-snake and the other wild beasts. He waited for

the right moment when the wild beasts started to clash with the spirit manipulators, so he could take

away the three Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds.
