"It's here?" Everyone was even more confused. Apart from some seaweed that could be seen everywhere, there was clearly nothing else, so where did the Divine Knowledge Fruit come from?
"It seems that they really don't know …" Chu Tianlu's expression became more and more strange. Because the Chu family had always had a quota for Tai Snake Island by chance, they had collected quite a lot of ancient books related to the Divine Knowledge Fruit. As long as they made proper preparations, they could obtain a lot of information about the Divine Knowledge Fruit. At the very least, it would be much more abundant than the hearsay in the outside world. However, from the looks of it, Chu Tianliang and the others clearly hadn't put in any effort in this aspect.
After speaking, Chu Tianlu bent down and squatted down, finding a rather oddly shaped black stone at his feet. At first glance, it seemed unremarkable, but if one observed it carefully, they would discover that the shape of this black stone was extremely similar to a triangular poisonous snake head. In particular, there were various sinister spots on its surface, which made people tremble with fear.
Chu Tianliang and the others still had stupefied expressions. Chu Tianlu picked up the black stone as he explained, "Everyone knows that the Divine Knowledge Fruit is shaped like a snake gallbladder, and is even said to be transformed from the gallbladder of the Tai Snake Clan. However, it can't just be a snake gallbladder growing outside, right? According to the records of the Ancient Strange Records, the survival rate of the Tai Snake Clan is extremely low. More than ninety percent of the young snakes will die prematurely, and among these young snakes that die prematurely, an extremely small number will be buried in the ground and petrified. Among the petrified young snakes, an extremely small number will condense the essence of the Tai Snake Clan, which is the legendary Divine Knowledge Fruit. "
As he spoke, Chu Tianlu carefully removed the black stone from the ground. Chu Tianliang and the others' eyelids all jumped. This black stone really did look like a snake head, and there was actually a long pitch-black snake body attached to it. However, it was a petrified snake body.
At first glance, it really did look like a living snake!
Chu Tianliang and the others were already mostly convinced by this strange shape. One by one, their breathing immediately became hurried. After all, this was the legendary Divine Knowledge Fruit. Even Chu Tianliang, who had his eyes set on marriage alliances, couldn't help but feel his heart beat wildly at the thought of being able to immediately obtain the Divine Knowledge Fruit.
On this trip to Tai Snake Island, getting rid of Chu Tianlu was his primary goal, but if he could obtain the Divine Knowledge Fruit, that would be an enormous surprise. It would be a waste to not have it!
"Give it to me quickly!" Chu Tianliang began to be impatient. He wished he could snatch the Petrifying Tai Snake into his hands.
"Wait, we agreed before that I'll give you the Divine Knowledge Fruit, and from then on, we'll mind our own business." Chu Tianlu wasn't so naive that he couldn't be saved.
"Of course, I swear on my family's name that I won't go back on my word. As long as you don't ruin my plans after we return, it's fine." Chu Tianliang's face was filled with sincerity.
"Okay, but I can't give it to you here. I'll give it to you as soon as I get back to Middle Island." Chu Tianlu didn't believe the other party's oath that easily. Just for the sake of competing for a marriage alliance candidate, he didn't hesitate to kill his brother of several decades. If he believed in the other party's character, then it could only prove one thing: his brain really was flooded with water.
Chu Tianlu didn't believe in Chu Tianliang, and it was very obvious that Chu Tianliang didn't believe in this cousin of his at all. It should be known that the conspiracy on Tai Snake Island this time absolutely couldn't be exposed, especially to the patriarch grandfather who had recently advanced to the Nascent Soul stage. Otherwise, not only would all the previous plans fail, but it would also bring trouble to himself.
Most importantly, once Chu Tianlu returned to Middle Island, he would be like a fish in water, and they would never have the chance to make a move again. At that time, even if Chu Tianlu went back on his word and didn't give them the Divine Knowledge Fruit, what could they do?
"Chu Tianlu, my patience is limited. Don't push your luck." Chu Tianliang's face immediately darkened. This time, no matter what, he wouldn't let the other party return to Middle Island, even if he didn't want the Divine Knowledge Fruit!
"Did I push my luck? Didn't we agree on this? Or, did you never intend to let me return to Middle Island alive? " Chu Tianlu looked at the three people in front of him and didn't show much nervousness. Logically, in this situation, he was the fish on the chopping block. His life or death was all in the hands of the other party. After all, there was an early stage Gold Core stage expert on the other side. Once they made a move, he wouldn't be able to escape at all.
"Hmph, I really let you …" Chu Tianliang grinned coldly. Just as he was about to turn hostile, Chu Wenshang, who was next to him, suddenly interrupted, "Tianlu, it shouldn't be a problem for me to be the guarantor for the matter between you two brothers, right?"
Chu Tianlu frowned, paused for a moment, and said, "Okay, I trust Uncle Wenshang's character, but it's absolutely impossible for me to hand over the Divine Knowledge Fruit here."
"Since it's like this, then let's each take a step back. After we get out of here, you give us the Divine Knowledge Fruit, and we give you the only flying spiritual beast. That shouldn't be a problem, right?" Chu Wenshang thought of a compromise.
After hearing this, Chu Tianliang immediately frowned, but after noticing the other party's eyes, he held back and didn't speak.
"Okay." Chu Tianlu readily agreed. He also knew that it was unrealistic to return to Central Island unscathed in this situation. If he could really use the Divine Knowledge Fruit to exchange for a flying spiritual beast, although there would still be some risks, it was better than wasting time here. A long night was fraught with trouble, and if Chu Tianliang's patience was exhausted, there would be no point in talking.
"Okay, then it's settled." Chu Wenshang nodded, and then said, "But before that, shouldn't you let us verify the Divine Knowledge Fruit with our own eyes? This Snake Stone does look a bit mysterious, but seeing is believing. Who knows if there really is a Spiritual Knowledge Fruit inside? "
"This …" Chu Tianlu hesitated for a moment. The thing in his hand was his only bargaining chip, but as Chu Wenshang said, if he couldn't prove that there was a Divine Knowledge Fruit inside, there was not much room for him to bargain with the other party, so he immediately nodded and said, "Okay."
As he said this, Chu Tianlu suddenly exerted force in his hand, and the petrified snake body rapidly disintegrated section by section. After a while, there was a pile of black gravel at his feet, but everyone's eyes were fixed on his right hand.
In Chu Tianlu's right hand, there was a small dark red object lying quietly, like a living thing. It looked very much like a snake gallbladder, but the strangest thing was that this suspected snake gallbladder was exuding a strong, almost suffocating snake smell, and it was even pulsing weakly.
"Divine Knowledge Fruit!" Everyone gulped. At this time, even if their eyesight was poor, they could see that this must be the legendary Divine Knowledge Fruit!
