Fishing the Myriad Heavens

Chapter 405: Madness!



Chapter 405: Madness!

Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu

The once glorious mega-city had turned into a desolate land. Of the original 100 million citizens, less than 10,000 remained alive!

Almost all the citizens in the city had been sacrificed to complete the Human-Faced Peach Tree and cause it to bear fruit!

An aurora of tempting, clear fragrance surrounded the ten thousand zhang peach tree, causing others to feel drawn to approach the tree and pluck a fruit!

As expected, the moment the words came out of Lin Qingyun's mouth, the entire area fell silent. Golden Dan experts might have very long lifespans, but a Yuanying cultivator had a lifespan of 5,000 years!

As long as they themselves were around, and managed to break through to the Yuanying realm, it wouldn't be a problem to rebuild another clan!

At this moment, a conflicted look passed through the eyes of everyone as they struggled internally.

"Hmph! You all better think this through properly. Even if you managed to break through to the Yuanying stage, so what? Can you escape the pursuit of the sects? Furthermore, although the Human-Faced Peach Tree is formidable, it's still not sufficient to allow everyone to break through to the Yuanying stage!"

Han Qingjue looked at the Golden Dan experts with a cold gleam in her eyes.

Countless people were awoken from their dreams as though a bucket of ice water had been poured over their heads. The sects were extremely mighty existences. Even a Yuanying stage expert could not escape the pursuit of the sects!

Even the weakest sect had an expert at the Incarnation realm at its helm. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to obtain the approval of the other sects.

"Haha, when this daddy becomes a Yuanying expert, where will I not be able to go in this vast land? At the most, this daddy will leave the Western region far away!"

Just as everyone was hesitating, a middle stage Golden Dan expert dashed outwards, appearing beside the Human-Faced Peach Tree. He was so close to the tree that the fruits were within range for his picking!

"Dammit!"

"Snatch! What the sects want is the Human-Faced Peach Tree; we only want the fruits! The chance to break through to the Yuanying stage is right before our eyes!"

"Scram! I'll slay whomever dares to block me!"

The action of the first Golden Dan expert was like a cue for everyone. In an instant, the area turned chaotic again.

Several hundred Golden Dan experts rushed towards the tree with red eyes!

"Senior Sister, what should we do?!"

The elite disciples from the Emotionless Sword Sect looked at Han Qingjue anxiously. Their eyes were also filled with greed.

"Snatch!"

Han Qingjue sucked in a deep breath as an icy glint flashed past her eyes.

"Yes!"

The elite disciples responded quickly, forming into a sword formation and killing their way over as well.

The Heavenly Feathers Sect was the same as well. Since the Human-Faced Peach Tree had already appeared and the situation was uncontrollable right now, they could only go with the flow.

They could take advantage of the fact that their reinforcements from the sects hadn't arrived yet. And since they had contributed to finding the Human-Faced Peach Tree, it wasn't a big deal if they ate a few fruits.

A chaotic grand battle broke out once again. This time, everyone was fighting to snatch the Human-Faced Peaches!

A peach would turn into dust by itself after being separated from the tree for the amount of time it took for an incense stick to burn. There was no way of stopping it!

All the Golden Dan experts who had been lofty and arrogant existences a moment ago transformed into a bunch of greedy savages right now. They resembled Pigsy from Journey to the West, eating ginseng. They dashed through the branches, stuffing a full peach into their mouths with every move.

"Too amazing, is this the Human-Faced Peach? Eating a fruit is equivalent to one month's worth of cultivation!"

"I can feel my cultivation increasing at a crazy rate; it's almost about to break through to middle stage Golden Dan realm now! Ah! I still need a large number of Human-Faced Peaches!"

"What a dense and pure ling Qi! I only need to rotate my cultivation technique a little, and this ling Qi will be transformed into my own. This kind of rapid breakthrough is really intoxicating!"

"Haha, this is a fortuitous encounter that belongs to this old ancestor. I'll use this chance to break through to the Yuanying stage in one go today! I'll kill whomever dares to block me!"

Excited shouts rang out everywhere along with numerous Golden Dan experts breaking through!

Strangely, the Human-Faced Peach Tree that had been rampaging wildly a moment ago had suddenly quietened down. It did not do anything to prevent the actions of these people.

Powerful ling Qi ripples lingered in the air as hundreds of Golden Dan experts broke through at the same time. This was an exceptionally impressive scene!

Heaven and Earth Ling Qi surged towards the city from all four directions, congealing and forming into a huge ling Qi pool!

The ling Qi funneled over, surging into the bodies of the Golden Dan cultivators who were breaking through.

The cultivators that had not managed to break through fought even more frenziedly as though they didn't care about their lives.

Countless Human-Faced Peaches were plucked away and eaten by the several hundred cultivators, fueling them and causing their auras to grow stronger and stronger!

At this time, a heavy pressure suddenly descended onto the city, like a blazing sun in the sky!

"Boom!"

A terrifying shock wave surged forth from an old cultivator's body, and Heaven and Earth Ling Qi poured continuously into his body!

"AH!"

Two Golden Dan experts who were standing closest to the old man directly turned into blood mist as the shock wave passed through their bodies. The two's souls did not even have the chance to escape!

"Is that the Yuanying stage? What powerful strength!"

"Si-la!"

The old man's appearance underwent a huge change. From an elderly and bent old man, he quickly returned to a twenty-something young man's appearance. At this time, the old man mumbled something under his breath and forcefully slashed downwards at the space before him!

The space before him was like a piece of cloth, instantly torn apart by the old man, revealing the blackness behind it!

The faces of the leader of the Heavenly Feathers Sect and Han Qingjue both turned ugly in an instant. A jade pendant at the waist of Han Qingyun shattered, and the nail on the finger of the leader of the Heavenly Feathers Sect also burst apart, turning into a black mist which flowed into their noses. As soon as the old man struck out, the greed and confusion in the two's eyes immediately disappeared, and they hurriedly shouted, "Not right! Not right! All the disciples, retreat immediately! Stop eating the Human-Faced Peaches!"

Unfortunately, none of the disciples heeded their words. Everyone seemed to have descended into madness. They were all elite disciples from the sects and their battle prowess was exceptionally strong. Even a primary stage Golden Dan disciple could fight to a draw with a middle stage Golden Dan cultivator from the countryside!

And not only that, these disciples had taken large amounts of Human-Faced Peaches. Their strength had grown quickly, and 20-odd disciples had reached the late stage Golden Dan realm by now. Adding their battle formation to the mix, their combined strength was high to a terrifying extent!

The Heavenly Feathers Sect's leading disciple looked at Han Qingjue and, as he observed the group of people who seemed to have gone mad, he said with some shock, "There's something wrong with this Human-Faced Peach Tree. When Golden Dan cultivators breaks through to the Yuanyng stage, they will definitely draw in the Heavenly Tribulation! But that old fellow had clearly reached the Yuanying stage, yet the Heavenly Tribulation did not occur. Something is very wrong here!"

Han Qingjue fell silent for a moment before asking, "Do you feel that there's something wrong with their mental state?"

The two exchanged a glance, and verified that they had both deduced the same thing!

This Human-Faced Peach Tree had its own consciousness. It should also have the ability to pull at the emotions of others and amplify them endlessly!

But this was not the scariest part. The scariest part was: what would happen to these people had eaten large amounts of Human-Faced Peaces?

With just a little bit of thinking, the two felt their scalps growing numb with terror!

Under the stupefied gazes of the two, the death and injured count grew bigger and bigger. There were originally several hundred Golden Dan experts. But after a round of savage killing, there were only 50-odd people left!

Even more terrifying was that these 50 people had all stabilized their cultivation at the Yuanying realm!

Han Qingjue and the Heavenly Feathers Sect disciple did not even think about stopping them at all. The moment they entered the battlefield, they would be attacked with the combined strength of many people!

"Hehe, Haha! Break, destroy, slaughter! Blood feast! A huge blood feast!"

There were very little Human-Faced Peaches on the tree, but their voices rose into the clouds like a chorus. An awe-inspiring and solemn aura lingered in the chorus!
