Top-class Bodyguard

In the next moment, Ren Feng tapped his foot and, carrying the lotus, flew back up to the corridor.

The two other figures did the same, but when they landed on the corridor, their faces were still full of anger. If it weren't for Ren Feng wielding the terrifying Heaven-Slaying Sword, why would they fear him?

At this moment, everyone's power was forcibly suppressed to the same level, making the threat of the Heaven-Slaying Sword truly overwhelming.

"Are you going to fight for what we have our eyes on?" one person said coldly.

"I happen to fancy it as well," Ren Feng replied calmly and then tossed the lotus to Elder Mu Han.

"You're shameless!"

The skilled fighter was so furious his eyes turned dark, seemingly about to erupt with rage, and the fellow beside him spoke coldly, "Let you have it then, consider this your second item."

"This isn't the second item I designated; I snatched this one. Designating and snatching are two completely different concepts. If your intelligence is online, you should understand what I mean."

The experts in the back all furrowed their eyebrows, and one expert said with a stern face, "You've gone too far."

"I haven't gone too far," Ren Feng replied calmly, "I still have the right to take two items. Before this, I also said that apart from what I designate, you can fight for everything else yourselves."

"Damn it, do you really think I have no temper?"

As soon as the expert finished speaking, his figure disappeared in an instant, tapping consecutively around the surrounding corridor, and appeared on Ren Feng's right side, bringing a gust of wind as he fiercely attacked Ren Feng.

Ren Feng's face showed no panic. The True Qi in his body flowed, instantly pulling him backward to avoid the strike. With a flick of his hand, he twirled the Heaven-Slaying Sword, creating a flash, directly stabbing toward the opponent's right hand.

The opponent tapped his foot on the railing along the edge of the corridor and dodged, but in the next moment, Ren Feng's Heaven-Slaying Sword, like a venomous snake, darted straight for his face!

The two exchanged blows in no more than a second before the opponent's attack shifted to a defensive position.

"You've forgotten something; right now, our capabilities are equal, so I can overpower you!"

Ren Feng was incredibly domineering, his Sword Qi fierce, overpowering the expert, forcing him to flip backward in mid-air, attempting to grab the eaves above, but Ren Feng swung his sword, forcing the expert to retract his hand and fall toward the lotus pond below.

The surrounding masters watched without any intention of intervening as the expert fell toward the water, unexpectedly without any sound of a splash.

His feet made full contact with the water, and then it felt as though he was trapped in a swamp; his legs began to slowly sink!

This bizarre scene immediately drew the attention of others, and everyone who witnessed it was shocked!

"What's going on?"

The expert who had fallen in also panicked; he unleashed his Qi Force throughout his body, gathering it at his feet, trying to lift himself, but no matter what he tried, it seemed like a layer of highly adhesive glue was attached to his sole, causing him to sink slowly.

"Help me, help me."

The expert panicked, shouting loudly. By this time, he had sunk to about ankle-deep, with his entire foot submerged in the water, still yelling.

This scene indeed made one's scalp tingle. Even though the water had slight ripples and seemed like any ordinary pond water, why would such a situation occur?

Ren Feng was also shocked. Had he fallen into the water by accident earlier, he would have been in a similar predicament.

"Help me!"

The expert cried out desperately, while Elder Mu Han, standing nearby, looked intently below, his expression changed drastically: "This is Weak Water!"

"Weak Water?"

Several gazes turned towards Mu Han.

"Indeed, there is a saying you might have heard, 'Three thousand weak waters,' referring to this kind of Weak Water. It is extremely dangerous; if any human touches it, it feels as if they are sinking into it and cannot pull themselves out!"

Mu Han's eyes showed signs of shock: "This situation was recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, yet even in the Ancient Era, such Weak Water was unknown in location. Where did the Primordial Emperor find this kind of Weak Water?"

The other masters cast their eyes upon the expert in the pond; at this point, the water had already reached his knee and was about to reach his waist. He looked terrified, and everyone around silently watched him gradually sink.

"Save me! Save me!"

He continued to cry out in misery, to no avail, as his entire body sank inch by inch. The water reached his waist, then his chest, then his neck, leaving only the head visible above the surface.

"Help me, help me."

The expert's eyes were filled with despair. Under the gaze of others, he sank slowly, the water covering his mouth, rendering him unable to speak further, then engulfing his eyes, and finally his hair.

In just an instant, the expert sank entirely into the pond, and everyone watched his terrified facial expression in silence.

The goldfish in the pond scattered and swam away, hiding under the lotus leaves as the man sank.

Ren Feng also remained silent for a moment; this relic site was fraught with danger. Who would have thought that a seemingly ordinary pond was actually Weak Water?

He had never heard of such a thing before, but the scene he just witnessed firsthand made him never want to encounter such water again.

"Let's keep moving," Ren Feng said, stepping forward.

Elder Mu Han examined the lotus in his hand, and after counting the small lotus capsules, a look of excitement appeared in his eye. He sent a message through his voice: "If I'm not mistaken, this should be the Nine-Heart Sacred Lotus Seed, growing in weak water, possessing life-rejuvenating abilities!"

Ren Feng's heart stirred: "Can it cure diseases?"

"It can cure all sorts of diseases, though that's when the seed is fully matured, but unfortunately, this one hasn't matured yet. The maturation cycle appears to take hundreds of years."

"The disease I want to cure is special; there are Heart-Parasites in the heart; can it cure that?"

Elder Mu Han searched his mind, slightly surprised: "Heart-Parasite? This thing should belong to the Ancient Era, right? If it's just that, even the immature lotus seed should have this effect."

"Then please keep it safe for me. I want one after we leave."

"Of course, you picked it in the first place. The Nine-Heart has a total of nine seeds, so use them sparingly and see if we can cultivate another one after returning."

Hearing this, Ren Feng also breathed a sigh of relief, feeling fortunate.

Everyone stepped into the rear courtyard, the final courtyard in this complex, appearing vast, and quite extraordinary!

Upon witnessing the scene before them, Ren Feng and those around him had looks of astonishment in their eyes!
