“It should be around here Search carefully, everyone”
Qiao Hua’s voice was hoarse and his appearance disheveled, but he still exuded a sense of confidence and good spirits His gaze kept its confidence and steadiness while his face had a morbidly excited red blush Only the corners of his eyes displayed his fatigue
Everyone knew that Qiao Hua was bearing a heavy burden
The blood catastrophe situation was rapidly deteriorating There were sightings of blood fiends in ency, the ones deeper in the Garden of Life were pressed by a heavy atmosphere Even the areas that had been burned still had blood-red sprouts growing froround The blood plants had a resilient vitality, instilling fear in everyone
The blood fiends were getting stronger Just seven days ago, they were hit by a sneak attack fro three deaths and six injured This was the first instance of severe injuries and death received since they entered the Garden of Life The blood as a strong but cunning dire beast that quickly becahtmare Since then, the troop had becos
Their caution, however, did not ian to suffer continuous attacks fro the nuthened their belief that they were traveling in the correct direction
Qiao Hua continued to co for divine intervention
The burdens in Qiao Hua’s heart increased, but he continued to encourage hi as they discovered the first blood tree, they would be able to find a solution
The blood poison could not be dealt with using ordinary ideas, which was evident fro fro rate Only a few days had passed, and the blood grass had already grown past their kneecaps
The fire, intended to prevent the spread of the blood poisoning, aided it in becorown blood grass and realized that the blood poison in theathered in his initial investigations
Layers upon layers of transformations had taken place, and the blood poison becaly formidable—to the point that Qiao Hua experienced fear
He did not express his worries and fears, knowing that the troop’s es Everyone was tense and strained as they had yet to find the blood tree left behind by Si Nan Further attacks by the blood fiends and the loss of their people made their confidence in Qiao Hua waver
The loss of confidence and intensifying insecurity made them extremely weak
Qiao Hua’s resolute nature showed itself; he did not have the least bit of hesitation and held on to his determination He believed his conjecture was correct and was not the least bit swayed
Everyone dispersed to seek out the potential target
Si Nan’s notes were decades old; since his ties in the Induction Ground Even the geological landscape had noticeable differences Furtheranized by Si Nan’s students, and sothe notes, Qiao Hua had jotted down a few potential locations
Most of the people were in low spirits and were not encouraged by Qiao Hua’s words since their previous searches had proved to be fruitless Everyone h rank Their tolerance, however, was running thin So suspect whether Si Nan’s notes were real
“Found it!”
An agitated voice suddenly rang out, and everyone involuntarily paused in their movements After a moment of silence, they erupted in cheers
Everyone rushed towards the loud shout
Qiao Hua’s knees went soft He no longer cared about his iround He looked utterly exhausted He did not think that their journey would have been met with so many mishaps, nor did he predict the blood poison to have worsened so rapidly The burden he shouldered had been heavy beyond expectation
The blood catastrophe had worsened with a swiftness outside of anybody’s expectations, even Qiao Hua’s There were rumors of displeasure from the elders who had been persuaded by hi
If he could successfully resolve the blood disaster, then he would rapidly become the hero of the Induction Grounds—no, of the entire Avalon of Five Ele as he succeeded, his population would be elevated to unprecedented heights
Always, he had hoped and longed for such a chance His ao

As long as they found the blood tree, he was halfway to success This implied that there would be a feast for them soon
It would be one of celebration, the best reward he could ever get The courage he invested would soon reap numerous rewards He could almost envision his name in the river of history, praised by th froroup of people
The crowd auto of a crowned victor
With a steady pace, Qiao Hua held his head up high The gazes that turned his ere no longer filled with doubt and suspicion but instead were of adoration and respect Finding the blood tree was evidence of Qiao Hua’s correct theory
They all believed that they would soon witness the destruction of the blood disaster Most of them were overcoo to his head Instead, he cal his absolute tranquility, he inspected the blood tree carefully
After four hundred years of growth, the sapling had grown into an ancient tree of the firreithin a perimeter of fifty meters
The top of the tree was thick and scarlet red like the eveningQiao Hua, however, did not raise his head His gaze was fixated on the black streaks on the tree trunk
The dull-red tree trunk was covered with black patterns like a toteloon?” Qiao Hua’s student gathered up his courage and asked
