Chapter 875 Day 2 Of The First Trial (1)
Ji Yuan and his team of 7 others continued their hot trek across the burning sands of the desert.
All of a sudden Ji Yuan raised his nose to sniff the air.
Then he suddenly raised a shout, “Run back one mile from here! Quick!”
Then he had pulled Chu Lixue’s hands to run along with him.
Xiao Muhan was startled, “What the big hurry?”
Ji Yuan shouted to him, “Brother Xiao Muhan, run after me if you still want your life!”
Xiao Muhan did not hesitate at all as he ran after Ji Yuan in a hurry; it was because in the past, Ji Yuan’s danger sense had saved him several times and this time, it was also not an exception.𝑛𝐎𝔳𝚎𝓁𝞰𝗲xt.𝒸𝒐𝑚
Even though Xiao Muhan appeared to be at logger heads with Ji Yuan but their friendship actually ran deep and they openly compete in many areas. But the most important thing is, he knows that Ji Yuan is a sword saint and he trusts the words of a sword saint when it comes to a danger.
All the others were startled too.
Yi Ling, Ma Huarong, Hu Tao and Spirit Consort Miao Humei had also broken into a run after Ji Yuan who seemed to be in a hurry; they were astonished that Ji Yuan could actually run so fast in the sandy ground and they were awed by his swiftness movement skill.
Chu Lixue’s swiftness movement skill was not weak either and she could actually catch up with Ji Yuan. In fact, she seemed to take less steps than him.
In just 3 blinks of an eye, they had disappeared over the sand dune.
Zhao Mingyao was astonished that everyone seemed to be following Ji Yuan’s lead even when there were no dangers.
“Are we cowards?!”
He had barely muttered this when a burst of red rain began to rain down from the clear sky and a worm hole seemed to have been formed from above.
This red rain covered a large area and when it rained, it penetrated through the profound animus of Zhao Mingyao and burning him like a deadly acid.
Even Xiao Muhan, Yi Ling, Ma Huarong, Hu Tao and Spirit Consort Miao Humei were all hit by the red acidic rain and were bored a hole through their flesh by it, suffering a burning and painful damage that threaten to even hurt the bone marrows of their bodies!
Only Ji Yuan and Chu Lixue were completely unharmed by the acidic red rain.
As for Zhao Mingyao, because he had hesitated for a while, he was caught in the midst of the red acidic storm and in mere minutes, he was dissolved completely in the desert sands and his death was most horrifying.
It was quite impossible for a golden celestial to be dissolved in this manner because the density of their bones shared the same hardness as celestium steels, which were the same hardness as a heaven-step precious sword.
But it could only mean how deadly this red acidic rain had been!
Everyone was in awe how Ji Yuan could manage to sense the storm coming even before their divine sense could sense it?
“How do you know about this?” Chu Lixue had turned to ask Ji Yuan curiously and she looked quite relieved even though the experience had still terrified her.
Ji Yuan said nonchalantly, “I sniff something funny above us just now. The air around us just now is completely different as though it is about to rain. Even though I didn’t see the storm coming but my instinct tells me we should avoid it.”
Chu Lixue frowned, “I didn’t catch a sniff of anything…”
Ji Yuan laughed weakly, “Haha… I have sharp nose…”
Xiang Li giggled as she pointed it out for Ji Yuan, even though Chu Lixue could not hear her: My Big Brother really has a sharp nose! He can even sniff Chu Lixue’s panties from 1 mile away!
Ji Yuan: …
He had heard Xiang Li alright.
Can you shut up, Xiang Li? And will you stop ruining my good reputation.
Xiang Li asked curiously: I am ruining Big Brother’s good reputation? Big Brother, you want to say you can sniff Maiden Chu Lixue’s wet panties from even 5 miles away, am I right?
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
He weakly said to her: Stop praising me, Xiang Li…
Even Fairy Anyang was slapping her face when she had heard Xiang Li.
Ji Yuan said to the others, “Let’s take another path. We should avoid the remnants where the red rain is.”
As he said that, he had continued on his way forward again with Chu Lixue and Xiao Muhan. And behind him was the Spirit Consort Miao Humei.
But this time round, even Yi Ling, Hu Tao and Ma Huarong did not dare to walk too far away from him like previously.
The 3 of them, to be exact, the 4 of them if Zhao Mingyao was included, had felt that they were the superior celestials to Ji Yuan and they had maintained a distance from him.
In their hearts, they felt that this Ji Yuan could earn the Great Spiritas Hero title simply because of his good lucks and that he must have banged the divine consorts in Snowy Pavilion City.
Or simply because he was also more cunning in them and had many stratagems under his sleeves to earn a fake good reputation for himself.
After all, this trial was all about earning the Trust Points of the divine consorts.
Their team had only 7 remaining now.
This time round, they did not even dare to complain about Ji Yuan’s slowness anymore, so long as long as they could get out of this place alive.
Ma Huarong had even called out from behind Ji Yuan, “Brother Ji Yuan, do you need my help?”
Hua Tao and Yi Ling stole a glance at each other and thought: This Ma Huarong is really too shameless. He even calls out Brother Ji Yuan this time…
But they quickly caught on the act and they too, was shouting. “Brother Ji Yuan, I can help you too…”
Xiao Muhan rolled his golden eyes to think: Are they trying to flatter to Ji Yuan now?

The Greater Spirit Realm.
The Goddess Ai Tina smiled weakly to the other divine consorts, “Don’t look at me like this. I have slightly lost control of the profound energies when I was just trying to see where the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is and has accidentally sent the blood storms in his direction…”
The blood storms were not supposed to be appearing 800 miles from the desert fire and would only appear within 300 miles of the desert fire.
This was 500 miles too far!
Tang Li asked weakly, “Maybe we should ask Lord Achilles to come to take a look instead.
The Goddess Ai Tina frowned to Tang Li and the other divine consorts, “This won’t do. Didn’t we say to him that we can do it on our own already? This will be a slap to our faces if we ask him for help. Together we aren’t weak, right?”
All the immortal divine consorts began to nod lightly, even those immortal divine consorts that were outside the immortal array.
“If Achilles ask, just tell him that this is all part of our plans to make the trial more interesting than usual.”
Then she said apologetically, “As a compensation to all the teams that got attacked by the Blood Storms, I will send them a fortuitous encounter as a compensation…”
