Chapter 625: Chapter 396: Seizing the Fruit and Refining the Seal, Gu Yuan’s Blessed Land!
Demon Origin Mountain.
This mountain is part of an extensive range, stretching thousands of miles, with ancient trees towering into the sky, abundant Spiritual Qi, countless exotic flowers and plants, and dangerous beast miasma, scattered throughout.
This is a primal land, a place where danger and opportunity coexist.
"Brother Catfish, still not making a move!"
"Kill this Black Qian Fierce Tiger, and the Flying Immortal Jade Fruit will be ours. This miraculous fruit boosts mana by three hundred years, and there are only a few in our Demon Palace. Bringing it back will surely exchange for rare Root Bone items that aid in Realm-Breaking!"
At this moment, on a Spirit Peak adorned with emerald hues and covered with bamboo forests, a gigantic Eight-Clawed Giant Crab rose into the air, wielding a vast wave of blue, battling intensely with a massive Tiger Demon marked entirely with black gold Demon Patterns.
This Eight-Clawed Giant Crab, with its thick Demon Qi and indestructible shell, was quite formidable. Yet, since this place is on land, every time it wielded the vast waves, it consumed a tremendous amount of Demonic Power. In contrast, the Black Gold Tiger Demon only needed to roar, turning the pervasive Spirit Qi into black-golden flames that charged toward the Eight-Clawed Giant Crab.
The Eight-Clawed Giant Crab maneuvered left and right, but still could not evade, and was tortured by the black-gold Demon Fire.
Seeing itself unable to win, the Eight-Clawed Giant Crab repeatedly cried for help, seeking aid from its companion.
"Hmmph, wanting my assistance is not impossible, but what about the fruit’s share?"
On the Spirit Peak, a burly, dark-skinned man folded his arms, looking slyly at the faltering Eight-Clawed Giant Crab.
"A fifty-fifty split!"
The Eight-Clawed Giant Crab shouted.
"Sorry, Brother Crab, I have an upset stomach, so I’m taking my leave first!"
Upon hearing this, the burly man sneered, slowly levitated his Escape Light, seemingly ready to flee.
"Wait, what are you planning to do?!"
Seeing this, the Eight-Clawed Giant Crab cried out in shock and anger.
"Seventy-thirty, I get seventy!"
The burly man raised his head, chuckling.
"No way, you’re taking advantage of the situation!"
The Eight-Clawed Giant Crab roared with anger.
"If you don’t agree, I’ll leave now. In this mountain range, there are countless Fierce Beasts. If you’re badly injured, hehe..."
The burly man was in no hurry, just raised his eyebrows and smiled.
"Fine, fine!"
Upon hearing this, the Eight-Clawed Giant Crab was both shocked and angry. But at this point, it could only compromise for its own recklessness.
This Black Qian Fierce Tiger had already been provoked into a frenzy, making any attempt to retreat now quite difficult.
"Hahaha, don’t panic, Brother Crab, I’m coming!"
Having achieved his plan, the burly man laughed heartily, transformed into a ferocious catfish beast towering several feet high, and launched a massive wave toward the Black Qian Fierce Tiger.
"Roar!!"
Unless in the Profound Yellow Great World, where beasts in perfect realms exist, it’s hard for any beast to gain spiritual wisdom. However, this Black Qian Fierce Tiger, despite its incredible power, had low spiritual wisdom.
Yet, the lower the wisdom, the more ferocious it became.
Facing the siege of two Sea Demons, the Black Qian Fierce Tiger advanced instead of retreating, roaring furiously. Its voice was like thunder; the giant sound wave, accompanied by a terrifying soul-stirring force, overwhelmingly suppressed the two Sea Demons, demonstrating astonishing combat power.
"How fierce it is, let’s fight and retreat, pull it along. I don’t believe this beast has unlimited Demonic Power."
Facing such a Fierce Beast, even with its thick skin, the catfish beast was struggling and shouted repeatedly.
"A forty-sixty split, a forty-sixty split, you fool, totally useless!"
Seeing that the promised benefits didn’t yield immediate results, the Eight-Clawed Giant Crab was furious, shouting incessantly.
"What’s the rush? Working together, can we not take down this tiger?"
"I just don’t want to get hurt and save energy."
The catfish beast responded, unwilling to budge.
Just then, in the Void above the Spirit Peak, a golden beam suddenly descended from afar.
In the beam, a tall and exceedingly handsome Daoist descended gracefully.
"The Flying Immortal Jade Fruit, it’s indeed here!"
The Daoist chuckled, then unleashed an indescribably grand sword light, accompanied by golden radiance.
The world flashed bright.
The fierce and audacious Black Qian Giant Tiger collapsed without even a whimper.
Then, with a flash of radiance, the emerald Flying Immortal Jade Fruit from the Spirit Peak disappeared without a trace.
The dust settled, silence reigned over the Spirit Peak, with the Black Qian Bear Tiger and the Flying Immortal Jade Fruit both vanished.
In the sky, only the Eight-Clawed Giant Crab and the catfish beast were left, staring at each other.
"Did someone intercept us??"
The catfish beast grumbled, looking in the direction where the radiance had retreated.
"You fool, your greed has cost us the fruit!"
The Eight-Clawed Giant Crab transformed into a handsome youth, scolding angrily.
"How was I supposed to know this would happen?"
"Shall we chase after it and take the fruit back?"
The catfish beast also transformed into a burly man, scratching his head.
"Chase your brashness! The fierce bandit who killed the tiger in one strike, and you dare to chase him?"
"Careful he doesn’t use you as a side dish!"
The Cyan Crab Youth fumed, involuntarily cursing.
"Is this person a local of this Secret Realm, or someone who came with the Marquis’s Demon Tower?"
"How come I’ve never seen him?"
The catfish man, realizing his slip, changed the topic to inquire about the Daoist’s identity.
"How should I know?"
"Don’t follow me, you’re bad luck!"
The Cyan Crab Youth snorted coldly, ignoring the man, and directly summoned his Demonic Power to leave on a cloud.
...
...
Amidst the caressing radiance, Gu Yuan, his eyes resolute, left the Jade Immortal Peak and flew directly towards a Spirit Peak resembling a turtle beast.
Turtle Immortal Peak.
Atop this peak lies a deep pool, inhabited by a fierce turtle known as the Night Concealing Turtle. Within this turtle’s lair lies a Spirit Pearl, which contains an Exotic Pearl named Likui Pearl. When consumed, this pearl causes Spiritual Qi to gush like a spring, enhancing a Golden Core Cultivator’s two hundred strands of Gold-Attribute Mana.
