C3600 The Immortal Fruit Ripens
C3600 The Immortal Fruit Ripens
Gu Shunzhi was the first to shout. With a wave of his hand, the people from the Heavenly Law Association rushed out. With Mo Yujian and the others holding the line, no one dared not to move forward.
It wasn't just the cultivators of the Heavenly Dao Organization. The other cultivators were also unwilling to be left behind. They all started to fight for the True Immortal Fruit.
However, there were only four True Immortal Fruits. This meant that many people wouldn't be able to get anything at all. In fact, they might even be buried here. How cruel was that?
"Ahh! How dare you steal my True Immortal Fruits? You're courting death!"
"The True Immortal Fruits are mine! Anyone who dares to step forward will be killed without mercy!"
"Who do you think you are? How dare you stop me? Die!"
The chaotic battle had begun. These old monsters and undying cultivators had fought so hard for the True Immortal Fruit that they would fight for it no matter the cost.
They knew that if they didn't have the True Immortal Fruit, they would die of old age in a hundred or so years.
Instead of dying of old age, they might as well fight to the death and have a chance of survival.
In just the blink of an eye, several Tribulation Transcenders had died on the spot. Their blood splattered across the ground, and they didn't even have a complete corpse.
However, such a scene didn't scare them away. Instead, it aroused the beast inside their bodies. It was like they had gone mad, and they wanted to kill.
Chen Xiao frowned, and his expression was extremely serious. He suddenly realized something and was extremely shocked.
"What are those things?"
He pointed in the air and looked at the huge True Immortal's crown. There was a patch of green grass, all of which were over a thousand years old. They were especially alluring.
Although they couldn't be compared to the temptation of the True Immortal Fruit, there were still quite a few people who noticed this.
Instantly, many cultivators gave up on the True Immortal Fruit and rushed toward the spiritual herbs under the tree.
"They are all thousand-year-old herbs that grow under the immortal trees. They are preserved under the protection of the True Immortal trees, but I advise you not to think about these herbs. They are even more deadly than the True Immortal fruits."
Lie Xin warned with a tone of warning.
"Why?" Chen Xiao asked.
"You'll know very soon."
Right at this moment, Mo Yujian's eyebrows furrowed and killing intent appeared. He yelled at the three: "You three, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and go get the True Immortal Fruit and clear the obstacles for Second Lord."
The situation was actually very obvious. Gu Chengquan first sent the other cultivators to fight for the True Immortal Fruit, but in reality, he was using them as shields to wear down the cultivators of the other forces.
When most of the enemies were dead, he would make a move and take advantage of the situation.
That was the price to pay for joining the Heaven's Path. Everything had a corresponding price.
"Yes."
"Okay, sir."
Chen Xiao and the other two looked at each other, but they did not resist. Instead, they nodded and rushed out.
He had clearly seen that Gu Chengquan was on guard at the side, as if he was going to attack them if there was a disagreement. If the three of them dared to disobey the order, Gu Chengquan would definitely not hesitate at all.
Instead of doing that, he might as well take the initiative to attack. That way, he would have more chances to survive.
"Let's pretend to attack and not use our full strength." Lie Xin messaged the two.
"Understood." Qin Daoyuan replied.
"Alright." Chen Xiao.
For a moment, the three of them were at the back as they slowly approached the True Immortal Fruit. Seeing this scene, the corner of Gu Sheng's mouth curled up as he sneered.
They were all old monsters who had lived for thousands of years. How could he not know what Chen Xiao and the other two were thinking? However, he didn't care at all.
To him, the most important thing was the True Immortal Fruit. Everything else didn't matter.
Right now, he was only one step away from the door. Other than the True Immortal Fruit, he could give in to anything else.
"Second Lord, all the cultivators here have made their moves. None of them retreated." The Black Jade Sword came in front of Gu Cheng and reported with its head lowered.
"Very good. Follow me and get ready to fight for the True Immortal Fruit at any time," Gu Chengquan said.
"Yes, just those thousand-year-old spiritual herbs?" The elder with the black jade sword said with envy. He had already seen that many cultivators had succeeded.
The cold expression on Gu Shunzhi's face became even colder as he said, "If you don't want to die, then don't even think about it."
"This... Yes." Mo Yujian was extremely shocked. Although he was slightly puzzled, he quickly gave up on the idea.
Since even Gu Chengquan had said so, he naturally didn't dare to have too many delusions.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for something to happen.
Several cultivators fearlessly charged to the foot of the True Immortal Tree and tried to take the thousand-year-old herb.
"This is mine. I'll kill whoever dares to take it." An elder holding a curved blade revealed a fierce light as he looked at the others.
He looked like a wolf protecting its food.
When the other cultivators saw this, not only were they not scared off, they even started to laugh coldly and curse:" Blood Wheel Blade, you old fogey, your qi and blood are already so weak, yet you still dare to stop us? These spiritual medicines are not something that you can keep for yourself."
"That's right. If you want to take them all for yourself, then we'll kill you together. Why don't we split them equally? Those who see it will get a share." An elder said.
From the looks of it, they were all old monsters that had been famous for a long time. They had once been famous, but now they were fighting for the life prolonging medicine.
"You all, hmph!" The old monster known as the Blood Cycle Blade coldly snorted and didn't reply.
As long as he didn't have a problem with his brain, he knew how to choose.
"Alright, then we'll split it equally."
"That's more like it. Get the medicine."
Immediately, an old cultivator with a head full of white hair went forward and reached out his hand to take the medicine. He pulled out a thousand-year-old herb and said with excitement: "Good, good stuff. We won't lose anything this time."
At this moment, a sound came from the ground.
Puff!
A black spike came out from the ground and pierced through the old man's body. The spike then came out from the top of his head and pierced through his heart. The old man died a horrible death and blood covered the ground.
"What? What is that?"
"Not good, run!"
The remaining people were scared out of their wits, and their faces changed dramatically. They immediately wanted to run away.
But it was too late. Then, a mass of black spikes came out of the ground. Like hedgehogs, they pierced the bodies of several cultivators under the canopy and killed them. The bodies were like red meat skewers, and it was a shocking sight.
"This..."
"What was that just now? It killed a peak stage Tribulation Transcender so easily. It was too scary."
Such a terrifying scene made the other Tribulation Transcenders freeze in the air. Their expressions were filled with fear, and they were scared half to death.
Very few people expected such terrifying killing intent to be hidden under the tree.
"As expected, it's not easy to pick up a bargain. Luckily, Second Lord reminded me just now, so I didn't fall for it. Otherwise, I would be the one to die."
