A Top Scholar in Everything-Chapter 948 - 934: Strange Noises

Facing Zhenmi's attack, Baiyu was already prepared. Seeing him rush over at this moment, Baiyu was not flustered at all. The Blood Qi exploded inside his body, and the three flames within him burned fiercely.

The Black Moon Blade was like an insatiable glutton for Blood Qi, madly absorbing the power from Baiyu's body.

After absorbing half of the Blood Qi from Baiyu's body, the originally dark blade of the Black Moon Blade suddenly turned a strange blood red, followed by a giant black demonic shadow emerging from the blade, letting out a roar behind Baiyu.

Crack.

One slash.

Zhenmi had no power to resist and was instantly enveloped and covered by the massive wave blade sliced out by the Black Moon Blade, then cut in half at the waist and shattered into two pieces.

Baiyu also didn't expect.

The power of this slash was so strong.

The black ghostly shadow that emerged from the blade had never appeared before.

Without a doubt, Zhenmi's body was split into two halves, and being injured this way, it was naturally impossible for him to survive. However, Baiyu did not absorb any abilities from Zhenmi. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

He was puzzled in his heart, but upon approaching Zhenmi's body, he realized that the other party's body was not a flesh body but wood.

Yes.

Wood.

Zhenmi's body lay in two halves, scattered on the ground, turning into two lifeless pieces of wood.

"It seems to be some kind of Substitution Technique, didn't expect this guy was actually a fake body, all for nothing," Baiyu thought to himself.

However.

He remembered what Zhenmi had said before.

The power of the Green Mother.

The other party used a fake body to approach the old man, obviously to learn the old man's Invisible Technique, and even the name Zhenmi was probably fake.

Which means.

This unimpressive old man clearly had something that Zhenmi was concerned about.

From Baiyu's perception, Zhenmi's strength was far superior to the old man's. The other party was merely pretending to be weak to deceive the old man.

Thinking of this.

Baiyu returned to the old man's body again, but unfortunately, he gained nothing.

Helplessly.

Baiyu could only dissolve the Black Moon Realm.

After all, they were still on the airship. Although the Black Moon Realm only covered two rooms, it might still be discovered.

Safety was the priority.

After dissolving the Black Moon Realm, Baiyu appeared back in the room where the old man and Zhenmi had been.

After the old man and Zhenmi both perished.

Only then did Baiyu notice that the room was engraved with an extremely intricate altar, and in the center of the altar was drawn a huge green ancient tree.

This ancient tree, lush and verdant, its leaves connected to form a green wave, exuding vigorous Life Force, but Baiyu could sense a hint of malevolence from the tree.

Very eerie.

But also possessing a different kind of Magic Power.

Enticing one to observe and approach it.

Baiyu hurriedly aroused his Blood Qi, only then dispelling the bewitching feeling in his heart.

Bizarre!

"Is this the Green Mother, or is this a form of the Green Mother?"

Baiyu thought to himself.

He hadn't expected the Green Mother to be a tree.

But the existence of many deities is beyond human comprehension. Their forms of life and existence are beyond the scope of understanding.

So it's not hard to accept that the Green Mother is a tree either.

However, Baiyu felt.

This shouldn't be the true form of the Green Mother.

Soon.

Baiyu destroyed the half-engraved altar.

"This altar must have a special purpose, otherwise the old man wouldn't have taken the risk to set it up on the airship. But it's also possible that the altar was built with Changzhi Shuyuan's permission or even direction." Baiyu thought to himself.

The investigation into the Green Mother stops here.

To further understand the oddities on this airship, it might be necessary to capture Changzhi Shuyuan and interrogate him to discover the truth.

However.

That is basically impossible.

Surrounded by masters, Baiyu could not be sure of escaping unscathed if he made a move.

However.

Just as Baiyu was about to leave the room, he suddenly saw a green, faintly glowing, thumb-sized object.

It looked like a tree seed.

Baiyu looked seriously at this green glowing object, confirming several times and finding that it was indeed a tree seed.

Thinking of the Green Mother's form as a great tree.

Baiyu immediately had an unsettling guess about this tree seed; could it be a fruit from the Green Mother?

Very possible!

This tree seed was placed in a very concealed spot, hidden beneath the floor under the altar and wrapped in a layer of paper material outside.

But the battle just now was too fierce.

Causing this tree seed to be thrown up from under the floor.

So Baiyu discovered it.

With his abundant experience in handling such Extraordinary items, Baiyu took out a small box made of Living Iron carried on him, then used tweezers to place the tree seed inside, then with a click, closed the Living Iron box.

Living Iron.

Is an insulator for Extraordinary items.

Spirituality, Extraordinary Power, cannot pass through Living Iron, and naturally, it cannot mutate Living Iron to become a source of pollution.

Most of Baiyu's savings.

Apart from daily Cultivation and expenses, the rest are almost entirely used to purchase Living Iron.

This stuff is very expensive in the market.

And very rare.

Almost every time it appears, it's at auctions and the like, with fierce bidding, belonging to a category that is priced but unavailable.

After loading the tree seed.

Baiyu checked the room thoroughly again to ensure nothing was missed before preparing to stealthily leave this place of trouble.

He quietly closed the door.

Returned to the corridor embedded with Gold and Diamond, retraced his steps, and took the elevator to the first floor of the casino.

The two big men in black looked at him unfavorably.

"What's going on? Why did your delivery take so long? And where is your companion?"

A man in a black suit said coldly.

Baiyu remained unfazed: "Lord Changzhi didn't let us leave, so how could we dare move? My companion is still with Lord Changzhi, seems like the lord wants to try some new flavors, he's taking notes there."

The two black-suited men scrutinized Baiyu skeptically.

But in the end.

They didn't say much more and allowed Baiyu to leave.

However, just as Baiyu stepped into the casino, suddenly, with a rumble, the airship trembled and then came to a halt with a creaking sound.

The entire bustling casino fell silent in an instant.

Everyone pried themselves away from their engrossing games, looking around in terror. This was on an airship, and if anything went wrong, most people inside wouldn't survive.

At altitudes of ten thousand meters.

Even Tier Four and Tier Five Martial Artists would be severely injured if they fell.

And if they fell now, they would most likely land on a Desert, uninhabited and home to myriad Exotic Beasts and bizarre terrains; no one could guarantee survival.
