Although she was trying to buy time, Bing Wuqing was still surprised and could not help but ask, "What does this have to do with the Consciousness Fruit?"
"The tumors come from the Tai Snake eggs, and the Consciousness Fruit also comes from the Tai Snake eggs. I tried for hundreds of years before discovering that the Consciousness Fruit can remove these tumors. Unfortunately, the Consciousness Fruit is really rare, and if I'm unlucky, I won't be able to produce one in decades. I've been here for so many years, and this is only the 35th …" The Sky-Devouring Giant Crocodile cried bitterly. If it had known this earlier, it would not have come to such a lousy place. Otherwise, it might have become the master of a small Immemorial Jianghu by now. How would it end up like this?
When it said this, both Bing Wuqing and Lin Yi in the distance could not help but feel a little disappointed. A total of 35 Consciousness Fruits! When they heard this number just now, they were overwhelmed with emotions. One Consciousness Fruit could upgrade one's Primordial Soul level. If they could get all 35, how many levels would they be able to upgrade? Even if eating too much of this thing would cause resistance, with the quantity, it would be no problem to upgrade ten or eight levels!
Not to mention Bing Wuqing, even Lin Yi's heart trembled when he thought about this. The reason why his strength could improve by leaps and bounds in the past few years on Heaven-Stage Island was not only because of various opportunities, but also because of various top-grade elixirs. But now that he was in the Profound Ascension Stage, the elixirs were no longer effective. If he wanted to upgrade, he could only rely on hard work. If he continued to develop normally, it would take at least a few years, decades, or even hundreds of years.
But now, a Consciousness Fruit suddenly appeared. What if it was also effective for Profound Ascension Stage experts? Wouldn't it be worth it?
Lin Yi's heart was burning, but now he was doused with a bucket of cold water. Since it was used to remove tumors, the previous 34 must have been used by the Sky-Devouring Giant Crocodile. In other words, there was only one Consciousness Fruit in front of him.
"I'm thinking too much …" After understanding this, Lin Yi could not help but blush. He had been in a good state of mind before, but perhaps because he had projected his Primordial Soul for too long, he had been restless recently, and even worried about gains and losses. This was not a good sign.
"So there's only one. What a pity." Bing Wuqing also sighed. Everyone coveted the God Knowledge Fruit, and she was no exception. However, she was also very clear about her own position and situation. An absolutely rational person like her would not be blinded by greed and keep the God Knowledge Fruit to herself. The first thing she did after she got it was to present it to Lin Yi.
If she could find a few more God Knowledge Fruits, Bing Wuqing believed that she would definitely be able to get a share of the loot, based on Lin Yi's usual open-minded character. However, there was only one God Knowledge Fruit, so there was nothing to be excited about.
"Heh heh, judging from your tone, you're still eyeing the Spiritual Knowledge Fruit?" The Sky-Devouring Giant Crocodile was amused when it heard that. These humans were really interesting. They were obviously about to die, but they still hadn't changed.
But then again, the Spirit Knowledge Fruit was really in Bing Wuqing's hands now. However, even a fool could tell that the Sky-Devouring Giant Crocodile was determined to have Bing Wuqing. The Spirit Knowledge Fruit would eventually belong to it, but it was in its primordial spirit state now, so it couldn't even pick it up. It could only return it to its rightful owner after it had possessed Bing Wuqing.
"Can't I?" Bing Wuqing's struggling expression suddenly turned a little strange. Then, the temperature within a radius of several miles plummeted, and the Merciless Ice Force poured out again. This time, it wasn't the Sky-Devouring Giant Crocodile that was hit, but Bing Wuqing herself.
In the blink of an eye, Bing Wuqing was frozen into a human-shaped ice sculpture, just like Chu Wenshang.
"Is this fellow crazy?" The Sky-Devouring Giant Crocodile couldn't react in time. Even though Bing Wuqing's resistance to her own martial arts techniques was much stronger than the average person's, she was still harming herself by doing this. Not only would her body suffer frostbite, but even her primordial spirit would be severely injured.
Primordial spirit! The Sky-Devouring Giant Crocodile wasn't stupid. When it thought of this, it immediately understood Bing Wuqing's plan. She didn't hesitate to harm herself because she wanted to use this move to neutralize the Thousand Ants Technique!
The Merciless Ice Force was effective against primordial spirits, so it might be effective against the Thousand Ants Technique as well. This way, even though he would be injured on top of his own injuries, once the Thousand Ants Technique was neutralized, he would no longer have the shackles around his neck. With his abilities, even if he couldn't defeat the Sky-Devouring Giant Crocodile, he still had a chance of escaping.
The Sky-Devouring Giant Crocodile was still thinking of Possession. How could it let him succeed so easily? When it finally reacted, it didn't waste a single word. Forcefully withstanding the power of the Merciless Ice Force, its primordial spirit transformed into its original form. It looked down from above and bit down on Bing Wuqing's head.
According to its original plan, it wanted to use the Thousand Ants Technique to torture Bing Wuqing's primordial spirit until it collapsed. That way, it would be able to take over her body effortlessly. However, its plans couldn't keep up with the changes now, so it couldn't care less. It had to swallow this fellow's primordial spirit clean first. It would be a great tonic for it!
A hint of anxiety flashed across Bing Wuqing's eyes. Her decisiveness in cutting off her own arm had indeed paid off. While her primordial spirit had been severely injured, the Thousand Ants Technique had been neutralized. However, her body was still frozen, and she would need at least a breath's time to recover her mobility.
This was a gamble. Not only did she have to bet on the Merciless Ice Force neutralizing the Thousand Ants Technique, but she also had to bet that her opponent wouldn't make any big moves within a breath's time. Bing Wuqing had won the first half of her gamble, but she hadn't won the second half.
Since he couldn't move his body, he was now a live target. All he could do was watch helplessly as he walked into the tiger's mouth.
Right at this moment, a beam of fire shot out from afar and hit the Sky-Devouring Giant Crocodile squarely in the middle of its bloody mouth. The Sky-Devouring Giant Crocodile didn't think much of it at first, but the moment the beam of fire entered its mouth, it howled miserably and retreated frantically in shock and fear.
"Who's that?!" The Sky-Devouring Giant Crocodile was instantly frightened. Although the Merciless Ice Force was effective against primordial spirits, it could only be regarded as a side effect at best. It would already be impressive if it could exert thirty percent of its effect. However, this beam of fire was different. It was a natural enemy of primordial spirits, and its effect was more than ten times stronger!
"I've been watching the show for so long. Don't tell me that the famous Sky-Devouring Giant Crocodile didn't notice anything at all?" A figure slowly approached from afar. Bing Wuqing was overjoyed when she heard the voice. Needless to say, the person who had come was none other than Lin Yi.
"Who are you?" Watching as Lin Yi drew closer, the Sky-Devouring Giant Crocodile rose into the air once again in fear. It didn't dare to continue attacking Bing Wuqing. Although the beam of fire from before couldn't be considered a serious injury, it was enough to cause it great pain.
