The Transcendence Holy Tree was hundreds of meters tall and dozens of meters in diameter. The trunk needed dozens of people to encircle it. Four ten-meter-tall walls surrounded the Transcendence Holy Tree.
Although the Transcendence Holy Tree was open for tourists to view, they could only view it from afar and not touch it. Tourists could only feel the magnificence of the holy tree from outside the walls.
Four guards stood in front of each of the four walls. This kind of defense was actually not very tight, and the expressions of these guards were somewhat lazy.
This was because although the Transcendence Holy Tree looked sacred and its leaves emitted a fragrance, the bark and leaves of the holy tree were actually poisonous. Furthermore, the holy tree would automatically counterattack when it was attacked.
Back when the Infernals invaded, Transcendence was nearly destroyed. It was the holy tree that showed its might, scaring the Infernals into retreating, allowing the Transcendents to survive.
Therefore, logically speaking, the holy tree did not need any guards. The four guards were only there to symbolically guard it.
And because of that, although the four guards did not neglect their duties, their minds were not on the holy tree.
Shi Xiaobai did not know that the holy tree was filled with poison. He was only attracted by the fragrance emitted by the holy tree, although he had other means to 'revenge' on the Transcendents for their belittlement.
However, the holy tree's fragrance made him choose such a method despite the risk.
There was a strong voice in his subconscious that made him unable to give up on this delicious' food '.
Shi Xiaobai patiently observed from a hidden corner and soon discovered that the guards were in a daze.
Such lax defense was practically nonexistent to Shi Xiaobai.
Shi Xiaobai waited patiently until the last tourist headed for the arena. Only when there were only four guards in the holy tree zone did he begin taking action.
Shi Xiaobai first pretended to be a tourist that was admiring the holy tree. When he came closer, the guard was in a daze. He gave Shi Xiaobai a quick glance and thought nothing of it.
Shi Xiaobai looked up and pretended to admire the holy tree. With light footsteps, he slowly walked to the guard's blind spot.
"Now!"
Shi Xiaobai took advantage of the moment the guard blinked his eyelids and used his Crab Steps at full strength. Instantly, he rushed to the front of the wall and tried his best to suppress his voice and breath. With a light leap, he reached the wall and with the support of his hands, he did a somersault in the air before landing on the trunk of the holy tree.
This set of movements was as smooth as flowing water, extremely fast, and almost made no sound.
The guard only felt a sudden gust of wind and did not notice anything else.
Shi Xiaobai had deliberately chosen a time when there were no tourists nearby to jump onto the tree trunk, so no one noticed him. From afar, one could only see a tiny black dot on the tree trunk.
The four guards were guarding the front of the wall. They didn't expect that someone had already crossed them and entered the wall.
Shi Xiaobai naturally did not hang foolishly on the tree trunk. If not, tourists would be able to see him at a glance if they came here.
It was a race against time.
"Please don't let any tourists come."
Shi Xiaobai quickly climbed up the straight tree trunk like a monkey. As the tree trunk was thick, it was impossible for him to wrap his arms around it. Therefore, it was equivalent to him climbing a wall, but this did not stump Shi Xiaobai.
However, Shi Xiaobai soon felt the poison enter his body through his pores.
Shi Xiaobai immediately realized that the holy tree's bark was filled with poison.
The poison was pervasive. If it were any ordinary person, they would have been poisoned to death. It was no wonder the defense was so lax.
But thankfully, Shi Xiaobai had a body that was resistant to poison. Together with Unleaking Turtle Aura's ability to suppress his senses, the poison did not affect his actions at all.
Shi Xiaobai climbed up at an extremely fast speed. In fact, this was an extremely tiring matter. This was because Shi Xiaobai needed to exert strength in all his muscles. Just a slight relaxation would cause him to fall.
However, this bit of fatigue was nothing compared to the "delicacy" in front of him.
Shi Xiaobai climbed at full speed. The crystal-like leaves were already inches away from him. The fragrance that made his lips salivate inundated his olfactory senses.
"Pu!"
Shi Xiaobai passed through the leaves and finally arrived at the treetop. The crystal-like leaves reflected the sunlight, causing the treetop to be enshrouded in a colorful halo. From the outside, it was nearly impossible to see the situation in the treetop. This meant that Shi Xiaobai was temporarily safe.
In the treetop, it was like he was in a rainbow, like a paradise on earth.
However, Shi Xiaobai only had eyes for the leaves. He reached out his hand to pluck a leaf and hurriedly placed it in his mouth.
"Pui!"
Shi Xiaobai nearly vomited.
The crystal-like leaves were as bitter as Chinese medicine. It tasted extremely bad!
Shi Xiaobai was somewhat dumbfounded. Why did the fragrant leaves taste so bad?
He could even eat rocks with relish, but he could not chew on the leaves!
Suddenly, Shi Xiaobai realized something was amiss. He reached out his hand to pluck another leaf and placed it in front of his nose to take a deep sniff.
"That fragrance doesn't come from the leaves?"
Placing the leaf in front of his nose to take a deep sniff, Shi Xiaobai was surprised to discover that the fragrance that made his appetite boil did not come from the leaves. It was just that the fragrance was too rich, nearly covering the entire treetop, giving Shi Xiaobai such an illusion.
Then, what was it that emitted such a fragrant fragrance?
Shi Xiaobai breathed hard as he climbed up the treetop based on his senses.
The higher he went, the richer the fragrance became.
He was getting closer and closer to the source of the fragrance.
Shi Xiaobai gulped a mouthful of saliva. What was it that was so fragrant?
Suddenly, Shi Xiaobai saw a fruit that was the same color as the leaves in the midst of the leaves.
The outline of the fruit could not be seen at all. It was like a chameleon that blended into the leaves.
If not for the fragrance's guidance, Shi Xiaobai would not have noticed the fruit hidden in the leaves.
After plucking the leaves around the fruit, the crystal fruit that was shaped like a heart revealed its outline.
Shi Xiaobai stretched his nose forward and took a deep breath. Immediately, he felt like he was in paradise as he nearly let out a moan.
Shi Xiaobai was certain that the fragrance that could be smelled from several kilometers away that he could not control came from the heart-shaped crystal fruit!
…
…
Transcendence's capital, King Leonis's palace.
A green-skinned dwarf with a lion's head was lazily sitting on a throne. He was holding his cheeks with one hand, while he was stuffing grapes into his mouth with the other.
Two Transcendent 'beauties' were giving him a massage.
At this moment, the palace only had King Leonis, his maidservant, and a half-kneeling green-skinned dwarf.
The green-skinned dwarf suppressed his voice and said, "King Leonis, according to the spy you placed beside Moya, Moya will rebel at tomorrow's finals! It seems … the other eight Bravehearts have joined the ranks of the traitors. "
When Leonis heard this, he lazily raised his eyelids, as though he did not take the shocking matter to heart.
"Since they are courting death, This King does not mind letting them know what reality is. You may leave. This King has his own arrangements. "
Leonis waved his hand.
"Yes!"
The green-skinned dwarf nodded and quickly left the palace.
Leonis turned his head to look at the two Transcendent 'beauties' who were giving him a massage.
"Do you prefer to rape before killing, or to kill before raping?"
Leonis asked with a chuckle.
The two Transcendent 'beauties' immediately knelt to the ground in fright, repeatedly claiming that they did not hear a thing.
Leonis got up from the throne and pressed one of the 'beauties' under his crotch.
"I wanted to wait for it to mature before eating it, but it looks like I can only eat it now."
Leonis's gaze penetrated the palace and landed on the Transcendence Holy Tree that towered into the sky.
