What's going on
Chu Hong and Wu Tian looked behind them, only to find that Yang Qi had suddenly retreated instead of rushing towards the spiritual fruit. Seeing this, they were both stunned.
Wu Ping couldn't help but laugh when he saw this, "Haha~Brother Chu, these are the spiritual fruits you didn't want."
Although everyone did not know the origin of the spiritual fruit, just the aura it exuded could make practitioners at their level feel an increase in their energy, so it was obviously a spiritual fruit suitable for practitioners to eat.
It was precisely because of this that, although they did not know the origin of the spiritual fruit, they still decided to snatch the spiritual fruit. After all, different cultivation worlds have different spiritual medicines and spiritual fruits. Even in their own cultivation world, no cultivator dared to say that he knew all the spiritual medicines and spiritual fruits. What's more, the secret realm in front of them was a martial emperor realm. It was normal that there were natural treasures that they did not know.
"this… "
Tao Cheng raised his eyebrows, he never expected that Yang Qi would retreat so suddenly at this time. Did he discover some danger
If there was any danger, the other two would have already arrived in front of the spiritual fruit and should be able to discover it.
Chu Hong glanced at Wu Tian and said in a deep voice, "I believe in Yang Qi."
The Tianjian Sect and the Chuwang Palace have a close relationship and are allies with each other. When Chu Hong was in the sect, he had heard of Yang Qi's reputation and even heard the royal descendants mention Yang Qi. He believed that Yang Qi would never give up the treasure intentionally and must have made some discovery, which would have caused him to retreat immediately.
"Is there any danger? The spiritual fruit is about to be obtained!" Wu Ping chuckled.
“Ah~ah~”
However, before he finished his words, the two practitioners who were about to pick the spiritual fruits suddenly screamed, and then their whole bodies exploded and turned into a ball of blood mist.
"How come?"
Seeing this scene, Wu Ping's pupils shrank suddenly, and there was a hint of horror in his eyes. He looked at the location of the spiritual fruit in disbelief.
Those who tried to snatch the spiritual fruit were all geniuses at the peak of the Seven-Star Martial Master realm. If they had burst out with all their strength, their strength would have reached the Nine-Star Martial Master realm. Yet, they were killed without any chance of resistance
"Junior Brother Zhang!"
Tao Cheng's eyes were about to burst out, the person who attacked was his junior brother. After all, his junior brother was the most trustworthy person, but now, his junior brother died because of his order!
Less than an hour after entering the Martial Emperor Secret Realm, two geniuses at the peak of the Seven-Star Martial Lord level, two of the most dazzling prodigies in the world of cultivation, died!
"There is indeed a problem!"
Seeing this scene, Chu Hong and Wu Tian looked at each other and felt a sense of fear in their hearts. Fortunately, they sent Yang Qi this time, and Yang Qi had discovered it in advance. If they had sent other practitioners, someone on their side might have already died.
"What exactly killed them?"
Wu Ping's eyes were fixed on the direction of the spiritual fruit. Although he felt sad because of losing a companion, what made him most unbelievable was that until now, he still hadn't discovered who had killed the two people!
"Haha~ You ants, this is what happens when you dare to covet my treasure!"
Seeing the lives of the two cultivators who were trying to snatch the spiritual fruit, the giant snake that was stopped laughed crazily. As a demon beast at the Nine-Star Martial Honor Realm, the giant snake had lived for who knows how many years, so how could it easily leave the range of guarding the treasure!
"hateful!"
Hearing the giant snake's roar, everyone's faces turned ugly. The two Seven-Star Martial Master peak practitioners died before they even had time to react. If they didn't figure this out, they wouldn't be able to get the spiritual fruit!
Thinking of this, everyone looked at the leaders of their respective teams, waiting for their decision. Although they could temporarily stop the giant snake, they could not kill it at all if they did not want to pay a price! Whether to fight or retreat, Chu Hong and the other two had to make the decision!
Tao Cheng's eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at Chu Hong and said, "Your companion must know what happened. Ask him quickly!"
Now that one of his companions had died and he had gained nothing, how could he explain this to the others? How could the others trust his decisions going forward
"good!"
Wu Ping nodded, and his eyes also looked at Chu Hong. If they didn't figure out what the killer was, even if they paid the price to kill the giant snake in front of them, they would have to pay a high price to get the spiritual fruit. But they retreated like this. Wu Ping and Tao Cheng, who had already lost a companion, were obviously unwilling!
"Yang Qi, what exactly is the Scarlet Cloud Snake Fruit, and what exactly is the killer?"
Chu Hong also knew that time was running out. After hearing what Wu Ping and the others said, he immediately asked Yang Qi who had retreated.
"The Red Cloud Snake Fruit is a strange spiritual fruit that can be used to improve cultivation. It is most suitable for snake monsters." Having said this, Yang Qi glanced at the giant snake that was stopped, and then continued, "But the most strange thing about the Red Cloud Snake Fruit is that the spiritual fruit itself is sentient. Once someone wants to pick the spiritual fruit and encounters a threat, the spiritual fruit will actively attack."
"You mean, it was the spirit fruit that killed Junior Brother Zhang?"
Tao Cheng was stunned, looking at Yang Qi in disbelief. Could spiritual fruits actually attack cultivators and easily kill a cultivator with the combat power of a nine-star martial master
“The more Red Cloud Snake Fruits there are, the stronger the attack will be.” Yang Qi sighed. If there were only a few Red Cloud Snake Fruits, they would not be enough to threaten the two people before. However, with dozens of Red Cloud Snake Fruits, the attack power would be so strong that even a Nine-Star Martial Master would not be able to stop it!
This is also the reason why he fled as soon as he recognized the Red Cloud Snake Fruit!
Even with Yang Qi's strength, he might not be able to escape unscathed if he didn't use the Wordless Stele. Now there are so many people on the three sides, how could Yang Qi use the Wordless Stele unless it was absolutely necessary!
“It’s actually like this!”
After hearing Yang Qi's explanation, everyone realized that it was the spiritual fruit itself that killed people. It was not that such offensive spiritual fruit did not exist, but no one expected that the attack power of this spiritual fruit was so strong that it could even kill a Nine-Star Martial Master!
The giant snake's gaze fell on Yang Qi, with a hint of murderous intent flashing in its eyes. It sneered, "I didn't expect that someone would know so much about the Red Cloud Snake Fruit!"
Since Yang Qi knew about the Red Cloud Snake Fruit, he probably also knew how to pick it!
Wu Ping's eyes fell on Yang Qi and he asked hurriedly, "Then how do we pick the Red Cloud Snake Fruit?"
They are now trying to stop the giant snake, but no one is ready to fight to the death, and they will surely not be able to stop it for long. If they are sure of getting the Red Cloud Snake Fruit, they can fight, but if they are not sure of getting the Red Cloud Snake Fruit, they can only retreat!
After hearing Wu Ping's words, Chu Hong and the other two looked at Yang Qi almost at the same time. They also wanted to know if there was any way to get the Red Cloud Snake Fruit. After all, everyone has already started. If they return empty-handed, even the practitioners of the Purple Star Continent who are not injured will probably be discouraged! (To be continued)
