16 Extra benefits

Lin Lu took a glance at Ko Ki, he thought because Ko Ki was was afraid of the situations, it affected him to think logically.

Ko Ki who was still in a state of fear did not display the behavior of a Gu Master, he was now just like a servant who was afraid of his master's punishment.

Lin Lu knew that there was a possibility that this wasn't the only path that could be used to reach the secret base.

If there really was another way, then the people inside this secret base would immediately respond to the sound that he made earlier.

What's more, if this is indeed a secret base, isn't this too weird?

The path that connected to this secret base, but without any guards. Even though what Ko Ki saw earlier can be the guard and had a Gu that could change his body so he could easily enter this place. Why is nothing happening now?

Lin Lu thought that fang yuan is the guard fir the entryway of this secret base.

Fang Yuan that Ko Ki saw was a Gu master, because he was deemed able to use Gu to enter this place. then why didn't Fang Yuan have a Gu to communicate with other clan members ? Isn't he a guard for this secret base entryway ?

Then the only logical thing was that this place wasn't a secret base that belonged to the Gu Yue clan. Because the time that passed already is too long and no one is coming towards them.

Lin Lu started his steps boldly, but he didn't know the strength of this person Ko Ki saw. That's why vigilance is still on Lin Lu's mind.

Looking at Lin Lu who was continuing his steps. Ko Ki felt that he had no other choice but to follow Lin Lu.

What if Ko Ki ran away on his own, then Lin Lu would report that he ran away in the middle of a mission. Then the punishment he will receive a punishment because of this.

In the past Ko Ki had run away in the middle of his mission, back then because he was running away. One of his party members died and the rest were injured.

Ko Ki has already got one of the toughest punishments that he can barely endure, but if he does it again this time, even more this problem right now includes the relationship between two villages. Not just one or two lives, but the whole clan will bear the consequence.

'I shouldn't have taken this mission' a deep sense of regret in his heart.

With a feeling of compulsion he followed Lin Lu's steps.

After a few steps, Lin Lu encountered another narrow path, he used his Gu worm to open the path.

A strong stream of water struck the rock in front of him and opened a wider path.

Due to the collision between the strong current of water and the rocks, the sound of a strong explosion could be heard again all over the place, the ground and the surrounding rock walls also shaking too. Some dust also fell on Lin Lu and Ko Ki.

But still nothing happened, Lin Lu was getting more and more confident in what he expected.

He took a steady step but was still alert.

Then finally Lin Lu saw a red shade of light in the darkness.

He watched the surroundings first, after sure nothing was out of the ordinary, he went there.

As he followed this red light, he found the light slowly expanded into a long, vertical and fine seam.

The voice heard by him also became clearer as well, but Lin Lu still couldn't understand what the voice was saying, as if it was being held back by a wall.

Lin Lu checked the wall in front of him, suddenly feeling that the wall in front had bent away. 

Instantly he was surprised, knowing that there was an enclosed space inside the huge boulder.

At first he was hesitant to enter, what if when he entered he would be immediately ambushed?

There is only one way to know what lies beyond this wall without him sustaining an injury. Lin Lu still needs to escape from Gu Yue clan's territory to report the information that he has already gathered. For that it is better to make Ko Ki as a cannon fodder!

Lin Lu saw Ko Ki behind him, he was staring with a menacing gaze.

"You coward ! Until when are you going to hide behind me? Get your ass here! "

Lin Lu uses intimidation to get Ko Ki to lead the way.

"But-but we are now in a tight space, I'm afraid we can't change our position"

Ko Ki tried not to be the first to explore the wall in front of him.

They were in a tight space, so Ko Ki couldn't immediately replace Lin Lu who was now standing in front of him to replace him.

Hearing Ko Ki's defense, Lin Lu just snorted at him.

Lin Lu knew this was about to happen, so they were forced to retreat to look for more space.

But when they walked back towards the exit, Ko Ki fled with all his might.

Lin Lu can't respond in time, but he had expected this to happen.

This path was still narrow, fortunately for the slim Ko Ki, he could easily get away from Lin Lu.

'Ha ha ha. I don't care what happens, I can kill Lin Lu when he tries to get out or I can just destroy the entryway. The important thing right now is my safety comes first "

Ko Ki had thought about running away from the start, he just lacked reason and courage, but after what happened, he was determined to run away.

He already knew that this place wasn't a secret base, but just a natural cave that had been created by itself.

In order to escape safely, he had to kill Lin Lu, so that he could make up a report on this mission at will.

Ko Ki, excited and delighted, ran carefully and cunningly in this narrow space.

He already saw the shadow of the water that was the exit, then he suddenly slowed down and finally fell on the ground.

He felt that something small had just passed through his body, he examined his body. A red fountain flowed from his chest, his blood spilled out as a hole had been created in his chest.

Ko Ki tried to cover the wound, but the wound behind his back couldn't be closed,

"Impossible…. What happened ?"

Ko Ki with his remaining strength tried to look behind him, but when he just looked back.

A strong and fast kick came towards his face, Ko Ki was thrown away by this kick. the wound weakened him even more, he could only lie on the floor at the moment.

He saw Lin Lu's figure approaching his body.

Lin Lu squatted in front of him.

"You are the son of a bitch, finally I can kill you. Do you know ? You are a disgrace to our great Bai clan, with your death here the Bai clan will lose its shame "

Then he stood up and walked past Ko Ki to retrieve the Gu he just shot.

"You think I don't know what you are thinking? Luckily you don't know about my Water Needle Gu, this makes killing you easier. "

Lin Lu walked around 20 steps before he finally found his Gu.

What Lin Lu had just used was a Rank two Water Needle Gu, at first glance this Gu looks like a translucent blue needle, but if you look closely, a pair of small eyes will show up on its blunt tip, this Gu has the best penetration ability among other rank two Gu.

Lin Lu took the Water Needle Gu that was stuck in the stone wall in front of him, he could find it easily by making his connection with this Gu.

Gu Master used his Gu like their limbs, a connection connecting them, so searching for this Water Needle Gu didn't require much effort for Lin Lu.

Lin Lu then returned to the corpse of Ko Ki who had just died, he wanted to take the Gu that Ko Ki had.

But just as he walked over there, he sensed that Ko Ki's Gu worms had chosen to leave its aperture and wanted to escape.

Lin Lu thoughtlessly ran following the Gu worms' aura.

He was having a little trouble, as every step he took his path got smaller, moreover this place was still far from the red light source making it very dark black.

His feet and hands were trying to find the right path and his eyes were watching the Gu who might fly towards him, he already felt a Rank two Gu worm flying towards him.

Then he finally saw it, it was a Rank two Current Gu. In this dark place, only this Gu had light, so all his attention was focused on this Gu.

Current Gu is an advanced version of Stream Gu, this Gu has the shape of a jade carving that is shaped like a three streams of water which has three arches that are dark greenish blue, the size of this Gu itself is only the size of a newborn baby's fist. When used this Gu can make a strong water current.

Stream Gu was the typical Gu of the Bai clan, just like the Moonlight Gu of the Gu Yue clan. So it was only natural for Ko Ki to have this Gu, moreover, this Gu was his vital Gu.

Lin Lu stretched out his hand carefully, so as not to make this Gu run past him. He knew that the only way out of this place was behind him.

Current Gu flew slowly and approached Lin Lu's hand.

Lin Lu happily picked up this Gu, his face was smiling happily, but immediately turned into surprise.

A foreign object had just pierced his chest, moreover, this object was moving outwards and aimed at his neck.

Lin Lu, who was found unprepared by this, could only die without knowing what had happened.

The only thing that comes to mind at the end of his life is the person who entered this place before him, but why is he behind me?

Fang Yuan mercilessly crushed Lin Lu's head, he had no experience in killing someone, but he was sure that at this time Lin Lu would no longer be able to live.

"Heh" Fang Yuan ridicule at Lin Lu's death.

"So this feels like killing huh? It's not like what I thought. "That was the only comment Fang Yuan had on his first murder.

He then stabbed his sword into Lin Lu's heart.

"All right, now where are my benefits?" Fang Yuan first took the Stream Gu that Lin Lu was holding.

Then after some time, Lin Lu's Gu worms started coming out of its aperture.

Fang Yuan immediately caught the Gu worms without giving them a chance to escape.

Fang Yuan obtained Water Needle Gun, Current Gu, and Water Drop Gu.

He didn't know what Gu this was, but he would keep it for now.

Fang Yuan then searched Lin Lu's body, but because the place didn't have good lighting, Fang Yuan then decided to look for Ko Ki's Gu worms.

He could inspect this body after he moved it to where the Flower Wine Monk was, there was lighting there, so the search would be better.

In his search, Fang Yuan only found two Gu worms. That was Water Snake Gu and Water Drop Gu.

The Water Snake Gu was Rank two, had a snake-like shape whose body was made of transparent water, its size alone was only the size of Fang Yuan's index finger.

Water Drop Gu is Rank one, with the appearance of a water drop that has crystallized, if one look carefully, one will see the water in this Gu, with a clear blue color.

Fang Yuan was happy with the Gu worms he obtained, this wasn't what he expected from the start.

He then began to move Ko Ki and Lin Lu's corpses into the Flower Wine Monk room.

It took Fang Yuan a lot of time and effort, but he succeeded.

Actually, when Fang Yuan first noticed someone else's presence, he was not prepared for it. He used his brain but panic and fear filled him.

But just then an intuition popped into his head.

Fang Yuan used Small Qi Gu to check the Qi that was in this place. He discovered that this place contained the most Shadow Qi and Dark Qi.

Qi exists everywhere in this world; in forests, in mountains, in rivers, and in places inhabited by humans, but most of this Qi does not interfere with the life around them.

Only when these Qi reach a certain amount or degree of density do they start to affect the environment around them.

Shadow Qi and dark Qi had a good relationship with each other, so Fang Yuan wanted to use this Qi as a part of his plan.

Fang Yuan began to separate the other Qi from Small Qi Gu except for Shadow Qi and Dark Qi.

He released these two Qi around his clothes. Initially Shadow Qi and dark Qi did not react, but Fang Yuan continued it anyway. Of course his primeval essence was exhausted in the process, but fortunately he was not as poor as the Fang Yuan in the novel. He used the primeval stones he brought to refill his primeval essence.

At first he had doubts about whether this primeval essence would be sufficient or not, but he still did it.

In the end he succeeded, his body was now covered by Shadow Qi and Dark Qi, he looked like he was surrounded by black clouds.

Since the room he was in had a light source, the disguise he had just created wasn't very effective.

Fang Yuan patiently waited for his opportunity. When he heard that someone else was behind the wall where he had entered, he became worried. But luckily he heard their conversation return so he could change whose position was in front.

Fang Yuan used this opportunity to get out of the room, when he managed to get out, his disguise began to show his abilities, his body seemed to be immersed in the darkness around him, this is the effect of Shadow qi.

Then the function of Dark Qi is to hide its presence.

In the end, he still didn't really understand what Qi was or why this happened, he only had the intuition of Imagination path to make this happen.

When he saw Lin Lu walking towards a wider road, he followed suit and managed to walk past Lin Lu.

He is a person who is careful, for that he always carries a weapon, he does not know what he will find when he looks for the Liquor worm tonight.

After all, he's just an initial stage Rank one, what can he do with just Moonlight Gu which he still can't use properly.

Then when Lin Lu opened his guard, he killed him without giving Lin Lu a chance to destroy his Gu worms.
