Chapter 403 You, Jump Down
Chapter 403 Yes, Jump DownAs soon as the strange phenomenon appeared, everyone knew that there might be some treasures coming out. Arlo and Theodore didn't want to miss out on it either.
However, when they reached the mountaintop and saw Phoebe and others, doubts inevitably arose in their minds. Although the peak of Upeccia's later stage was not weak, it was clearly not enough when facing these Core Formation experts.
In this situation, Arlo made a direct choice-to reply on Phoebe's strength. Otherwise, not to mention the imminent appearance of treasures, they might not even be able to secure the spiritual herbs they had collected so far.
Theodore also caught on, promptly following Arlo to Phoebe's side. For a moment, it seemed like there were two factions on the mountaintop. One led by Phoebe, with a decent number of people, but apart from Phoebe's mid-Core Formation existence, the strength of others seemed uneven. On the other side, there was the combination of Benjamin from the Golden Blade Sect, Finn from the Wynter family, and Nathaniel from the Black Moon Cult, all in the early stages of Core Formation.
"Hehe, Miss Bishop, are you also here for the upcoming divine medicine?" Benjamin smiled and asked as the trio approached. Nathaniel deliberately exuded a strong aura belonging to the early Core Formation, showcasing his strength.
Phoebe frowned, looking at the three with a slightly solemn expression. She didn't expect three early Core Formation experts to gather together. Most unexpectedly, Benjamin and Finn, in particular, had formed an alliance.
Even if she was in the mid-Core Formation, facing three early Core Formation individuals would likely result in suppression. Even with the people around her, it would be, at best, an evenly matched battle. Moreover, these people might not be reliable.
"What? Are you trying to compete with me?" Phoebe asked, her face cold and her tone dominant and icy. A powerful and sharp aura instantly filled the area, making the scorching environment seem to cool down in an instant.
"Hehe, where there's talent, there's occupation! We should be able to compete, right?" Nathaniel shook his black robes and coldly chuckled.
Phoebe snorted, her beautiful eyes glancing around, and she said indifferently, "If you have the ability, you can compete with me fairly! But even if you snatch it, have you figured out how to share it? The divine medicine is only one plant, and there are three of you."
This young mistress of the Hudips Sect was clearly trying to sow discord among the three.
"Hehe, Miss Bishop, you don't need to worry about that. We have our ways to divide it," Finn sneered.
Benjamin drew the long knife from his hand, staring at Phoebe with a murderous intent, and then contemptuously swept his gaze over the others.
"No more nonsense, let's get started!"
"Miss Bishop, do you think having more people by your side is useful? With these trash, I can deal with each one of them with one slash!"
Finn and Nathaniel also adopted a combative stance, ready to take action. According to the original plan, they wanted to join forces to repel Phoebe, preferably severely injuring her to make her lose her resistance. Only then would they have a chance. As for who would be the biggest beneficiary and seize the divine medicine, it would depend on their respective abilities.
Phoebe sensed the intentions of the three, and her expression instantly became serious.
"Phoebe, I'll help you!" Arlo's eyes flickered as he stood beside Phoebe and shouted. As a core member of the Hernandez family, he was confident that even if Benjamin and the others fought, they wouldn't dare to harm him. In this situation, he wanted to take the opportunity to show off in front of Phoebe.
"Arlo, you better save your efforts! With your strength, bullying some other small fries might work, but that's about it," Benjamin sneered.
Phoebe rolled her eyes inwardly, not counting on Arlo's assistance.
Roar!Just at this moment, a fierce roar echoed suddenly from the volcano below. A terrifying aura spread from below, causing the faces of everyone present to change.
"Such a powerful and ferocious aura. It seems there's a terrifying Otherworldly Beast guarding below, protecting the divine medicine about to emerge!" Nathaniel exclaimed.
"Do you think that there wouldn't be Otherworldly Beasts guarding such Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures?" Phoebe mocked.
"Judging from the aura emanating, this Otherworldly Beast probably has strength comparable to the peak of the later stage of Core Formation!" Benjamin's expression also turned serious.
"What should we do? Damn it, even if we fight each other, we won’t be able to deal with this powerful Otherworldly Beast down there," Finn frowned.
At this moment, Nathaniel, the scion of the Black Moon Cult, suggested, "Miss Bishop, how about we join forces?"
Hearing this, Phoebe sneered, "Not interested! Or, you three can join forces to deal with the Otherworldly Beast, and the divine medicine will be yours."
With that, she sat down seemingly calm and collected. Even if she and the three early-stage Core Formation experts joined forces, they wouldn’t be able to contend with an Otherworldly Beast at the peak of the later stage of Core Formation. Otherworldly Beasts at the same level as practitioners, or those born from the heavens and earth, inherently possessed greater combat power. Moreover, this one was at a higher level.

The only solution was to divert the Otherworldly Beast's attention while others seized the divine medicine.
"You..." Benjamin showed a furious expression at her words.
But Nathaniel intervened at this moment, "Hehe, Mr. Aguirre, there's no need to be anxious! In any case, no one should think about getting this divine medicine."
Saying that, he also sat down.
Now the situation was clear; whoever went down first would suffer a disadvantage, and they might unwittingly pave the way for the other party. Although Phoebe remained outwardly calm, a touch of annoyance and urgency flashed deep in her eyes. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
For a while, both sides sat down, seemingly waiting to see who would be the first to lose patience.
"Miss Bishop, once the divine medicine matures, it's likely that the Otherworldly Beast will devour it!"
"Are you sure you still won't take action?"
"The three of us actually don't mind. Even if we can't get the divine medicine, we can have a good time watching Miss Bishop be at a loss. it feels quite good!"
After sitting for a while, Nathaniel said with a smirk.
Just at this moment, a wave of heat gushed out from the volcano, accompanied by a strange fragrance. Everyone knew-the divine medicine was about to mature!
Phoebe gritted her teeth, and a touch of urgency and frustration appeared on her exquisite face. The next moment, she took a deep breath and turned to look at Lachlan, standing there seemingly indifferent. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
"You, jump down!" As soon as she spoke, Lachlan's expression changed abruptly.
