Chapter 155 Profound Spirit Fruit[1]
“It’s the aura of monster-cla.s.s experts!”
Long Chen was startled . Those auras were incomparably powerful, soaring straight into the clouds . Only monster-cla.s.s experts had such powerful auras .
Furthermore, this time the auras were incredibly intense, much more intense than when Lei Qianshang and Tang Wan-er had fought .
“I’ve gotta go check it out!” Long Chen quickled his footsteps, rus.h.i.+ng over as quickly as possible . But that placr was extremely far, and Long Chen had to rush for two full hours before getting close .
“No way, it’s this intense?” When he saw the scene before him, he was completely stunned . Lei Qianshang, Qi Xin, Yue Zifeng, Tang Wan-er, and Ye Zhiqiu were all present .
And most inconceivable of all, they had actually formed two teams that were crazily fighting the other . Their terrifying battle shook the heavens and caused the land to shudder .
They were fighting three against two, as at some unknown point, Tang Wan-er and Ye Zhiqiu had formed an alliance to face off against the other three .
Lei Qianshang, Qi Xin, and Yue Zifeng were all fighting with their full strength . Thunder and lightning rolled, Qi waves surged, and Sword Qi slashed as they fought against the two women .
This was the first time Long Chen saw Yue Zifeng fighting . That longsword in his hand shot out a ray of light that was thirty meters long, cutting apart the sky, whistling through the air, and possessing a terrifying destructive strength .
Tang Wan-er was surrounded by hundreds of revolving wind blades that were like hundreds of flowers in full bloom, wildly resisting their attacks .
Beside Tang Wan-er was Ye Zhiqiu . A layer of ice frost covered her palm, and with each wave of her hand, illusory figures would fill the sky .
Those illusory figures were all formed from terrifying Ice Qi . The Ice Qi released by each of her palms was enough to chill their hearts . Even though they were three against two, the three of them were extremely apprehensive about the Ice Qi and kept their distance .
“Five monsters stealthily gathered here to fight . Are they fighting for the position of number one?” But he didn’t feel that was likely . Examining the surroundings, his gaze suddenly fell towards a distant cave .
“So it was like this…” That cave was a couple dozen meters large . Within it was a one meter tall sapling . The sapling had given birth to a fist-sized fruit .
That was the Profound Spirit Fruit . It was no wonder they would be fighting . Long Chen finally realized the cause of their battle .
The Profound Spirit Fruit was an extraordinarily rare and miraculous treasure . Its tree could only bear one fruit once every three years . If the fruit blossom ever withered, the entire true would immediately die along with it .
But if it bore fruit, then once the fruit matured, the fruit had to be picked within two hour’s time or it would rot away .
This fruit had a heaven-defying effect . That was to allow Blood Condensation experts to have a high chance to perfectly advance to the Muscle Rebirth realm .
A perfect advancement was the dream of countless martial artists . Cultivating was just like building a skysc.r.a.per . Only if the foundation was st.u.r.dier could it be built higher .
Normally, only once a Spirit Root reached the Silver grade could there be a chance of a perfect advancement . But that probability was only around thirty percent . Seventy percent of those who possessed even Silver grade Spirit Roots were unable to achieve a perfect advancement to Muscle Rebirth .
It was no wonder these monster-cla.s.s geniuses were fighting so hard . Was the reason they had suppressed their cultivation bases also because of this Profound Spirit Fruit?
He then realized the four of them were surprisingly far from the cave . Searching for why, he saw a line of words:
Those who damage this tree will die .
That line of words was extremely clear . They were written boldly as a warning .
Long Chen understood that such a precious treasure as the Profound Spirit Fruit was probably a one-of-a-kind in the Xuantian Monastery . Perhaps this was also why their disciple selection only occurred once every three years . They naturally would take precautions against those registrants from harming it .
Despite Ye Zhiqiu and Tang Wan-er fighting together, they were still at a disadvantage against the three others . They were being forced back step by step .
Long Chen hesitated for a moment . Just watching wouldn’t be too suitable . After all, he was at least a bit more friendly with Tang Wan-er and Ye Zhiqiu .
Furthermore, even if he didn’t care about those two beauties, didn’t he still have to at least deal a blow to Lei Qianshang and Qi Xin?
Those two had already become mortal enemies with him . If he let them obtain the Profound Spirit Fruit, that would definitely be disadvantageous for him .
“Hey, you three shameless fellows, how can you bully two weak women in broad daylight like this? Now that I’ve arrived, why haven’t you stopped yet?”
Long Chen swaggered over, shouting . His hands were clasped behind his back as if he were some expert .
Hearing Long Chen’s voice, Qi Xin’s face immediately darkened . He began to almost involuntarily s.h.i.+ver . That voice had already been carved into his bones .
“Long Chen!” Qi Xin and Lei Qianshang both gnashed their teeth as they spit out his name . As for Tang Wan-er, she was pleasantly surprised to see him .
Long Chen winked at Tang Wan-er before turning to Lei Qianshang and Qi Xin . “You two are so malevolent and I see a devilishness within your eyes . I was just strolling around, but now I will take the place of the heavens to punish you evildoers! If you two don’t stop now, then I’ll have to take action to put away you two demons!” Long Chen’s words were only towards Qi Xin and Lei Qianshang . He had no enmity with Yue Zifeng, and there was no need to drag him down with them .
This scoundrel, does he not know how to fear? Tang Wan-er barely kept back a laugh . She called to Long Chen, “There’s no need for you to take action . Go over to the cave . The Profound Spirit Fruit is about to fully mature and you have to pluck it at the earliest moment . ”
Although she felt Long Chen was powerful, he was unable to compare to them . Now for the fight for the Profound Spirit Fruit, everyone no longer held back, so she was afraid he would injure himself .
“That’s a nice plan, but how about you die for me instead!”
