Chapter 315 The Birth of the Crocodile Ancestor [Dear readers, please vote with your monthly tickets!]

"I see a resource supply station!"

The nine surviving players' eyes lit up as they gazed at the temple amidst the distant ruins.

This should be the newbie perk for the top 100 players.

Without hesitation, they leaped up and jumped off the stone wall, running towards the temple.

As a player, when you see a resource point, you should definitely loot it thoroughly.

On the way, they each used their unique abilities, running faster than the other, their strides like shooting stars, rushing towards the dilapidated ancient temple.

This is also why Bai Ye did not recommend that Ye Fan and the others come along.

When it comes to looting, how could Ye Fan and his companions in their mortal form compare to these players?

Killing everyone, looting everything, burning everything—collecting everything is just the most basic achievement; it won't give ordinary people a chance to get any closer.

Even if the player doesn't kill it, there's still the Crocodile Ancestor level to overcome later.

Bai Ye stood atop the stone wall, and with a single step, he entered the temple, gazing at everything before him.

The dilapidated ancient temple was silent and deserted, with a stone Buddha standing inside and an ancient Bodhi tree in front of it that would take six or seven people to encircle, exuding an ancient charm.

"The Great Thunderclap Temple!" A player followed closely behind, looking at the bronze plaque of the ancient temple in astonishment.

"Boss, I bet there's treasure inside. Let me check it out for you first," a player said to Bai Ye.

Before Bai Ye could respond, in an instant, nine players filed in and rushed into the ancient temple, frantically looting it.

An antique lamp? Take it!

The bronze plaque? Take it!

Stone Buddha? Take it away!

……

"Clang, boom boom boom, clatter clatter, crack crack crack..."

Under Bai Ye's amused gaze, the once quiet ancient temple had descended into chaos.

Sounds like those of demolition came from inside the temple.

Not to mention the items, even the floor tiles inside the ancient temple were dug up layer by layer, broken into pieces, to check if there were any things hidden inside.

Immediately afterwards, a player carrying a vajra and a prayer mat stepped forward. After hesitating for a while, he placed the vajra in front of Bai Ye.

"Boss, this is a token of our respect." The player said with a tone of deep concern.

Subsequently, other players also presented some of the Buddhist treasures they had collected to Bai Ye after they finished looting.

They knew that Bai Ye was now in a dominant position, and that all the treasures they had painstakingly collected would be his if Bai Ye killed them.

It's better to be more self-aware and simply share half of what you have with them, making your gesture more conscientious.

It must be said that these players handled interpersonal relationships perfectly.

They acknowledge whoever is stronger and will stop at nothing to survive.

Perhaps these people are described as despicable, shameless, lowly, and vile, even if they themselves would agree.

But this group of people also have the desire to be the strongest.

Like Ye Fan, who possesses the will, pride, talent, luck, and comprehension to become a strong person.

These players may not be as talented, lucky, or insightful as Ye Fan, but they are no less determined than others to become stronger.

At the same time, compared to protagonists like Ye Fan, these guys have much lower moral standards.

Others may become discouraged and disappointed by the failure of the struggle.

But in the eyes of these players who have rebuilt the game at least ten times and started from scratch countless times in the game, these are nothing more than minor failures.

If you fail, it's definitely because your level, equipment, or skills aren't good enough. You can just start over. There's absolutely no danger of your Dao heart collapsing.

Even Bai Ye had to admit that he wasn't as willing to go all out as these people.

After all, even if these people die now, they can live peacefully in reality.

But he was willing to kowtow and kneel before Bai Ye, making a complete fool of himself, just for three more years of cultivation time.

Unfortunately, this world is unreasonable.

If hard work alone could make you strong, then the world would be full of supreme dogs and donkeys.

For someone like Bai Ye, to get to where he is today, 0.00000...001% effort is certainly valuable, but 99.9999...999% talent is also very important.

"I have a connection with this ancient tree."

One player looked at the ancient Bodhi tree in front of him, which was so large that it would take seven or eight people to encircle it, and shook his head.

He used his hands like shovels to frantically dig up the soil around the ancient Bodhi tree, and then, with a surprised look, he dug out a Bodhi seed the size of a walnut from the soil.

Sensing the extraordinary nature of the Bodhi seeds, the player became even more enthusiastic and began digging frantically.

Meanwhile, the other players who had already looted most of the ancient temple gathered together and joined forces to excavate.

In just a short while, the original ancient temple was reduced to ruins, and even the stone pillars inside the main hall were dismantled and broken into pieces in an attempt to see if any treasures were hidden inside.

With a loud crash, the ancient temple, which had been destructively excavated by the crowd, collapsed, raising clouds of dust.

As the ancient temple collapsed amidst the players' wavering gazes, the six-syllable mantra of Buddhism resounded: "Om Mani Padme Hum..."

As the Buddhist chants resounded, the light barrier in the sky completely disappeared, and a terrifying sandstorm was about to sweep in from the outside.

The players who followed were deathly pale.

They were too slow; they had just arrived at the ancient temple when a sandstorm started, forcing them to turn back without gaining anything.

"Can someone help me pack up these things?" Bai Ye said to the players who were preparing to return home, pointing to a pile of broken offerings at his feet.

"Boss, let me do it, let me do it, let me do it..." A player shrugged and came over to help tidy up.

"There's too much stuff, you can't carry it all by yourself, let me help you." Another player chimed in.

"laugh!"

Suddenly, just as the two players crouched down to loot, two thumb-sized black shadows leaped out from the shadows and attacked the back of their heads.

"Who the hell attacked me?!"

The two players roared and, without the slightest hesitation, grabbed the shadowy figure in their hands.

They thought some players were trying to ambush them.

Looking down, he discovered that what he was holding was a small, twisting monster, about the size of a thumb, resembling both a snake and a crocodile, covered in black scales.

"What is this thing?"

Other players also gathered around to observe, knowing that with their speed, they could easily return to the ancient coffin in just a few steps.

Looking at the living thing in his hands, the player crushed it with both hands, refining it in an instant, and then shouted, "This thing is incredibly nourishing! It's at least equivalent to the life essence of four or five people!"

As they spoke, clicking sounds echoed all around them.

Looking around, they saw that in the short time they had been there, hundreds of strange crocodiles had approached, and their numbers were increasing rapidly, exceeding a thousand or even ten thousand.

But what greeted these grotesque crocodiles was the players' gazes, which were even more ferocious than the crocodiles themselves.

"Hehehehe, I told you the top 100 players get benefits, right? At least 40,000 to 50,000 lives, wahahaha!"

"Eating these guys will give me one foot back in the ranks of Battle Masters. This is perfect timing!"

"How dare you ambush me! You deserve to die a righteous death, you scoundrel!!!"

……

As these players were filled with murderous intent, Bai Ye frowned slightly, sensing a great terror locking onto him.

That was the Crocodile Ancestor, who had broken the seal and reached the level of a Great Sage.
