Chapter 458: The last Fruit of Dao

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

Coming out of the Light of the Sage alive . . .

This was something unfathomable, but Fang Zhengzhi had done it . He was standing on a huge branch, his body covered in blood .

”How painful!” Fang Zhengzhi's lips twitched . He was being honest, the pain had cut deep to his bones .

He felt like every inch of his body was burning .

Other than pain . . .

He also felt bloated . All of the energies in his body were swirling around and clas.h.i.+ng with each other . He felt as though his body was going to explode .

He wondered if this was the after effects of what he had just done . . .

”I see!” Canyang's voice echoed out as the golden light disappeared and morphed into a single figure .

The golden symbol continued to glow on Canyang's head .

His eyes were lifeless and he was pale . However, in comparison to Fang Zhengzhi, he had fared much better .

At least his blue robe was still intact .

Below . . .

Countless eyes were fixated on the human and demon in the sky . They were all trying to guess what Canyang meant .

I see?

Could it be . . .

A thought flashed past the minds of everyone present . When they looked at Fang Zhengzhi again, their gazes were conflicted .

Gone was the shock . . .

It was replaced with a myriad of feelings, including respect, hurt, joy, amidst others . . .

”Sister Yan, could it be . . . ” Ping Yang's lips quivered as she looked at the b.l.o.o.d.y figure in the sky .

”Yes, he did it!” Chi Guyan replied before Ping Yang could finish her sentence . She was also trembling . . .

Yun Qingwu did not speak, but she gripped her dress tightly, so much so that her knuckles whitened .

Her dress flapped in the wind .

It was a beautiful sight, but it was strangely tragic as well .

Fang Zhengzhi clenched his fist .

He did not want to die . That was why he resorted to this . He had no idea what the consequences were .

But he knew one thing . . .

If he didn't do this, there was only one fate that awaited him . Death .

Canyang would never let him off .

He would fight to the bitter end!

The demons could drain their demonic eye of power to give themselves a boost of energy . Fang Zhengzhi was doing the same thing now .

He did not have a demonic eye . . .

But . . .

He had Fruits of Dao .

Each of the fruits on the tree contained a vast amount of energy . As such, he decided to eat them all!

”You may die . ” Canyang 'looked' at Fang Zhengzhi, his voice flat and calm .

”Yes, but like you said, it's only a possibility . Who knows how it would end?” Fang Zhengzhi nodded .

”Mm, you are correct . ” Canyang nodded after some hesitation .

Fang Zhengzhi did not speak .

Neither did he wait .

He couldn't afford to wait .

From the moment he had swallowed that first fruit, he knew that the clock was ticking .

He clenched his fists .

”Bang!”

That was the sonic boom created by his fist flying through the air past the speed of sound .

At the same time, a mult.i.tude of colors glowed on his body . The blood on his body clotted and the deep wounds began to heal at a rate that the naked eye could see .

The next moment . . .

Fang Zhengzhi had arrived in front of Canyang . He punched with all his might, his body bathing in the multi-colored light .

This was an unstable light . . .

It looked extremely radiant, but each ray of light was tugging at and cras.h.i.+ng into each other .

Canyang was not surprised by Fang Zhengzhi's sudden attack . When Fang Zhengzhi raised his fist, Canyang used his right fist to match the attack . He had already calculated Fang Zhengzhi's speed .

”Boom!”

The golden light was bright .

A domineering wave of force crashed towards Fang Zhengzhi . This was complete domination .

The fists parted .

Then, a figure came cras.h.i.+ng down from the sky .

Columns of dust and rock were sent flying skyward .

At the same time, the tree began to shake as countless leaves fell to the ground, exploding as they hit the floor .

”No, the difference in power is too great!”

”No matter how many Fruits of Dao he eats to increase his power, he cannot possibly win . ”

”Yes . . . his opponent is a Sage . This isn't even a fair fight to begin with!”

The Dragon Protection Squad, Mountain Breaking Army, and Southern Region soldiers sighed as they watched the battle unfold .

The difference . . .

This was domination like they've never seen before .

It was something that Fang Zhengzhi could not possibly overcome .

”He's definitely dead this time . . . ”

The demon soldiers looked at the crater in the ground as well as the trembling tree with joy .

However . . .

Before they could rejoice .

The ground trembled . . .

An arm could be seen from the ground . It was bloodied and covered with wounds that cut to the bone .

”Ouch . . . ” A voice could be heard .

Then, his other arm grabbed a rock as he tried to pull himself up . His arm was trembling and it took an immense amount of willpower . . .

But he did it . . .

With the help of the rock, he managed to pull himself out of the crater . His eyes were still filled with a myriad of colors, but they were significantly dimmer .

The light around his body had also disappeared .

”He's not dead yet?!”

The demon soldiers could not believe their eyes when they saw the bloodied figure crawling out . How did Fang Zhengzhi survive a hit like that?

Canyang 'looked' at Fang Zhengzhi with his lifeless eyes . He was also slightly surprised, but he recovered quickly .

”I never expected his potential to be this great!” Canyang murmured to himself .

As a demon . . .

He understood what Fang Zhengzhi was doing .

Under normal circ.u.mstances, neither humans nor demons could maximize their potential .

However, by draining their source of energy, they could maximize their power for a limited period of time .
