West of the Inner Land, Lost Stone Forest.
A black figure appeared out of thin air in front of a stone house. It was a tall young man dressed in black. He stood there as though he was one with the Heaven and Earth.
Suddenly, the black-clad young man raised his hand and caught a streak of light that was shooting toward him.
When he opened his hand slowly, a deep colored jade slip appeared in his hand. It was a Communication Jade Slip.
As the black-clad young man channeled a trace of Origin Energy into the Communication Jade Slip, an anxious and familiar voice entered his ears clearly.
"Senior Brother Zhou, if I didn't make it back, I would've been killed by the Sect Leader of Ling Tian Sect, Duan Lingtian! If I die, I hope you can avenge me on account of the fact that I've worked hard for you all these years. "
The voice stopped abruptly at this point.
This black-clad young man was Emperor Wu's direct disciple, Zhou Yi, in Lost Stone Forest. His master was Emperor Wu Shi Qi, and he was Emperor Wu's favorite disciple.
His strength could be considered as one of the best among the direct disciples under Emperor Wu's command.
"Duan Lingtian," Zhou Yi muttered indifferently.
Zhou Yi muttered with an expressionless face. He tightened his grip on the communication jade slip and crushed it into pieces.
Whoosh!
A gust of wind blew past, causing Zhou Yi's black clothes to flutter. The Communication Jade Slip in his hand turned into powder and disappeared into the air with Feng Qingyang in just a blink of an eye.
Zhou Yi's expression remained calm from the beginning until the end. It was as though Yang Chun's life and death had no effect on him at all.
However, a hint of coldness flashed in the depth of his eyes.
At the same time, on the other side of the Inner Land, Duan Lingtian finally arrived near his destination by following the Reincarnation Emperor Wu's memory.
His destination was the place where the Reincarnation Emperor Wu left behind the Great Treasure during his second lifetime.
"According to the Reincarnation Emperor Wu's memory, the Spatial Ring that contains the Great Treasure he left behind is in that mountain range."
Duan Lingtian's gaze quickly landed in the distance.
There was a mountain range in front of his eyes. The mountain range was lush and green. It was enough to show that the environment for flowers and trees to grow was good.
"After 10,000 years, this mountain range would have more or less changed … I'm afraid it'll take some effort to find the place where the Reincarnation Emperor Wu hid the Spatial Ring."
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
Regarding this, he had already mentally prepared himself.
Whoosh!
In the next moment, Duan Ling Tian seemed to have transformed into a bolt of lightning as he shot toward the mountain range in front of him. Soon after, he arrived in the sky above the mountain range.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
…
When Duan Ling Tian arrived above the mountain range, he suddenly heard a series of loud noises coming from the depths of the mountain range.
These loud noises caused the nearby mountains to shake violently.
For a moment, countless birds flew from the place where the sound came from. The emerald green forest in that area swayed as if it was experiencing the baptism of a violent storm.
"Someone's fighting?"
Duan Lingtian raised his eyebrows. At the same time, he moved closer out of curiosity. The closer he got, the louder the sound became. It was deafening.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
As soon as he moved closer, Duan Lingtian felt a gust of strong wind blowing toward him. It caused his purple robe to flutter. He squinted his eyes instinctively.
"It seems like two powerhouses above the Seventh Level Martial Monarch Stage are fighting."
Duan Lingtian pondered as he continued to move toward the source of the sound.
Soon after, Duan Lingtian saw two figures fighting in a spacious canyon. It was a two-meter-tall burly man fighting with a white-haired old man.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
The burly man held a pair of meteor hammers in his hands. When he moved, the meteor hammers shot out like two cannonballs toward the old man. He did not show any mercy.
Wherever the meteor hammers passed, the airflow was compressed and set off a series of thunderous explosions.
As a result, a raging gale was born and spread in all directions.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
…
On the other hand, the old man held a walking stick in both hands. He was not afraid of the meteor hammers in the burly man's hands. He blocked them again and again.
Both the meteor hammers in the burly man's hands and the walking stick in the old man's hands were grade one Spirit Weapons.
The two of them exchanged blows, and in addition to the fact that the two of them had similar strength, they were evenly matched for a while, and it was difficult to determine the victor.
"Old man, I was the one who found the 10,000 Year Red Fruit first … Don't you think it's a little too much for you to interfere?"
The burly man said in a deep voice as he swung the meteor hammers in his hands.
"Big Guy, since you haven't had the time to pick it, it naturally doesn't belong to you! A heavenly treasure like the 10,000 Year Vermilion Fruit should belong to those who are capable. "
The old man's walking stick shot out at lightning speed and blocked the meteor hammers in the burly man's hands that were shooting out like meteors. At the same time, he said without giving in.
"What a good 'belong to the capable' … In that case, I'll kill you, you shameless old man, today before I pick the 10,000 Year Red Fruit!"
The burly man roared as the muscles on his body bulged. He seemed to have expanded a little.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
At the same time, the pair of meteor hammers in his hands suddenly shook and turned into a sky full of hammer shadows that fell toward the old man like a meteor shower.
"Let's see if you have the ability to do so!"
The old man smiled disdainfully. The gray robe on his body swelled and the walking stick in his hand shone brightly. He waved it in the air as though it formed a defensive barrier in front of him and above his head.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
…
The sky full of hammer shadows fell like a meteor shower mercilessly on the defensive barrier formed by the old man's dancing walking stick, causing the old man to retreat.
Both of their strengths were about the same. Now that the burly man had the upper hand, he had the upper hand.
However, the old man was not easy to deal with. He took advantage of the situation to resolve the crisis.
As the two of them fought, the sound of air exploding was endless. The rolling air waves turned into gusts of wind that uprooted all the flowers and trees around them.
With the two of them as the center, a large area was turned into a barren land in just a blink of an eye.
The two of them who were engaged in an intense battle did not notice that as the flowers and trees around them were uprooted, a figure appeared in the sky.
The owner of the figure was naturally Duan Lingtian who had been attracted by the commotion caused by the two of them fighting.
"10,000 Year Red Fruit?"
Duan Lingtian heard the conversation between the two of them. His eyes lit up and his breathing quickened.
He had seen records of the 10,000 Year Red Fruit in the Reincarnation Emperor Wu's memory.
The 10,000 Year Red Fruit was an extremely precious spirit fruit. On Cloud Continent, it was also known as the king of spirit fruits.
In Cloud Continent, the reason why it was difficult for martial artists above the Martial Monarch Stage to increase their cultivation base by consuming Spirit Fruits was because the Spirit Fruits on Cloud Continent had the strongest medicinal effect only for Void Transformation martial artists.
There was no effect on Martial Monarch powerhouses if they consumed spirit fruits.
Of course, there was no effect if they were consumed directly.
If it was a grade one pill refined by a grade one alchemist using a large number of different spirit fruits, it could help a martial artist above the Martial Monarch Stage to improve their cultivation base to a certain extent.
However, although it could improve their cultivation base, the improvement was not as exaggerated as when a martial artist below the Martial Monarch Stage consumed spirit fruits.
However, as the king of spirit fruits, the 10,000 Year Red Fruit's medicinal efficacy was far superior to ordinary spirit fruits. Even if a Martial Monarch Stage martial artist consumed it, it could greatly improve their cultivation base.
"A 10,000 Year Red Fruit and some precious medicinal herbs can refine a cauldron of Profound Monarch Pills … If I refine a cauldron of Profound Monarch Pills myself, I can refine ten pills.
The medicinal efficacy of three Profound Monarch Pills is comparable to the medicinal efficacy of a 10,000 Year Red Fruit. "
Due to this reason, Duan Lingtian would not consume the 10,000 Year Red Fruit directly even if he obtained it.
He would combine it with other medicinal herbs to refine the Profound Monarch Pills.
"Since they're fighting here … I think the 10,000 Year Red Fruit must be nearby."
The moment Duan Lingtian thought of this, he began to search the surroundings for the 10,000 Year Red Fruit. However, after searching for a while, he still could not find anything.
Bang!
Just at this moment, a loud sound was heard. It was as if the earth was breaking apart and the sky was shaking.
Duan Lingtian instinctively looked in the direction of the sound.
He saw the old man who was at a disadvantage against the burly man's pair of meteor hammers launched a powerful counterattack. The crutch in his hand landed on the burly man's body and sent him flying.
Boom!
The burly man's body slammed hard against the mountain wall beside him before he fell to the ground. He no longer made any sound.
He was dead.
"I'll let him bring me to it then."
When Duan Lingtian saw the old man keeping the burly man's Spatial Ring and Profundity Fragment, he locked his gaze on the old man.
He believed the old man would go to look for the 10,000 Year Red Fruit next.
All he had to do was follow the old man closely.
"Huh?"
When Duan Lingtian saw the old man's next move, he could not help but be stunned.
The old man rose into the air and flew to the other side of the mountain range.
"Looks like the 10,000 Year Red Fruit isn't here … To think that I was searching here earlier."
Duan Lingtian shook his head inwardly and followed the old man.
Duan Lingtian's movements were extremely light, and he was very far away. Therefore, the old man did not notice him from the beginning until the end. He only cared about himself as he entered the canyon on the other side of the mountain range.
This canyon was extremely narrow and humid.
However, in this narrow canyon, in a corner of the forest where the sun could not be seen, there was a plant that stood proudly.
There was a spirit fruit that was so red it was almost purple on the plant.
"The 10,000 Year Red Fruit is mine!"
The old man's eyes lit up. He raised his hand and wanted to take the spirit fruit for himself.
However, just as he was about to reach out to pluck the 10,000 Year Red Fruit, he felt a strange wind blowing from the side of his body, causing his expression to change drastically.
