"Indeed. Otherwise, they wouldn't have put in so much effort to capture Wei Ruyan … "Luo Qiqi nodded.
Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes in contemplation.
It had to be said that the Hundred Schools of Philosophers understood the Temple of Confucius far better than the Mingshi Tang.
The Painting of Four Seasons that harnessed the Ancient Sage Aura and the Bodhi Fruit that could allow one to achieve a breakthrough in one's Soul Depth …
It seemed like they had already studied the Temple of Confucius thoroughly and made ample preparations.
Hong long long!
As Wei Ruyan infused her zhenqi into the Bodhi Fruit, the Bodhi Fruit on the tree began to sway, and a rich aroma wafted from it.
The Bodhi Fruit had ripened!
Hu!
Wei Ruyan's face paled as she panted heavily.
Clearly, she had expended a great deal of energy in order to make the Bodhi Fruit ripen.
"Wei Ruyan!"
Zhao Ya hurriedly sent a telepathic message over.
"Senior Zhao Ya?"
Wei Ruyan finally recovered from her trance, and upon seeing the two of them, her eyes lit up in excitement. "Teacher!"
"Un."
Seeing that Luo Ruyan was fine and her cultivation seemed to have improved once more, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief.
"Teacher!"
Not expecting to meet her teacher here, Wei Ruyan hurriedly rushed over, but barely after taking a few steps, she was blocked by a young man.
"You can't go over yet. Pluck the Bodhi Fruit first!"
Wei Ruyan frowned. "Get out of my way!"
"Don't forget what you promised us …" the young man's face darkened.
"Are you threatening me?" Wei Ruyan was taken aback. She was just about to lash out when her teacher's voice suddenly sounded. "What's wrong? The Bodhi Fruit has ripened, but you can't pluck it. Why do you need my student's help? Ruyan, come here! "
Paying no heed to the expressions of the Hundred Schools of Philosophers, Zhang Xuan turned to look at Luo Ruyan.
"Yes!" Wei Ruyan nodded as she walked around the young man and walked over.
"You are Miss Wei's teacher, Zhang Xuan?" the young man frowned in displeasure.
"That's me!" Zhang Xuan nodded.
"You came at the right time. Since Miss Wei listens to you, then let her pick the fruits. How about this, of the six fruits, I can give you one as a reward!" said the young man.
"Only one for Wei Ruyan?"
Zhang Xuan froze for a moment, as if he had misheard.
"Not bad!" The young man nodded. "The Hundred Schools of Philosophers have a use for the remaining five, so we have to take them back. I'm only giving one to you on account of her hard work. If you don't want it, I can exchange it for something else! "
"Replace?" Hearing the other party being so arrogant, Zhang Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Since you know that Ruyan has worked hard, then I'll say something fair!"
"Please speak!"
"You were able to enter this place because of Wei Ruyan's special constitution, right?"
"Yes!"
"The reason why the Bodhi Fruit is able to ripen so quickly is probably due to her zhenqi!"
"Not bad!"
"That's simple then. Since you are of no use to us, the six fruits should belong to Ruyan. What's there to fight over? Alright, Ruyan, go and pluck them."
After calculating for a moment, Zhang Xuan said seriously.
"You … What do you mean by that?"
The young man had thought that Zhang Xuan was going to say something fair, but who would have thought that it would be this? He immediately narrowed his eyes in anger.
"Nothing much. I just want to be fair!" Zhang Xuan said. "In any case, the ripening of the fruits has nothing to do with you, so why would you want anything?"
"Audacious! Do you know who you are talking to? "Not expecting Zhang Xuan to be so unappreciative, the young man bellowed furiously.
Hualala!
The remaining eight Sempiternal realm experts swiftly surrounded the three of them. They released their auras, and just like what they had seen in the Hall of Great Accomplishment, they were all Sempiternal realm consummation experts!
"Teacher …"
Wei Ruyan was just about to speak when her teacher suddenly raised his hand and said, "There's no need to worry. Leave it to me!"
"Un."
Wei Ruyan nodded.
She was well aware of her teacher's capabilities. Since her teacher said that there was no need to worry, there was nothing for her to worry about.
Zhang Xuan chuckled softly as he stepped forward.
These eight Sempiternal realm cultivators were formidable, but the Infernal Blacksaber had just advanced to Ancient Sage, and he had all kinds of weapons and tamed beasts.
Just as Zhang Xuan was about to make a move to teach these arrogant fellows a lesson, Luo Qiqi suddenly said, "Let me do it instead!"
Without waiting for Zhang Xuan's reply, Luo Qiqi dashed right into the crowd.
As soon as she made a move, she immediately displayed her strength.
Just like Zhao Ya, she had actually reached Sempiternal realm consummation!
"…"
Zhang Xuan felt his head throbbing in pain.
Back then, when he wreaked havoc in the Luo Clan, the young lady was only at Saint 9-dan. How long had it been since then?
Yet … she was already at Sempiternal realm consummation!
Wasn't her cultivation speed a little too fast?
It was said that his cultivation speed was fast, but compared to the other party, it was nothing at all.
Weng weng weng!
The Dimension Silencer revolved continuously in the air, sealing the surrounding space. Luo Qiqi flitted through the crowd like a butterfly.
The eight experts of the Hundred Schools of Philosophers were formidable, but they were still lacking compared to the young lady before them.
"She seems to be able to coordinate better with the Dimension Silencer!"
Zhang Xuan nodded in approval.
Previously, when Luo Qiqi had used the Dimension Silencer to stop the Luo Clan, her strength had still been a little lacking back then. However, at this very moment, her movements were as smooth as a whole.
It was as if a person was a pearl, and the pearl was a person!
"Luo Qiqi won't lose. Let's pluck the fruits!"
Knowing that Luo Qiqi would not lose, Zhang Xuan turned his gaze to the Bodhi Saint Tree before him.
This tree bore some resemblance to the one he had seen in Hongyuan Empire, but its roots and leaves were much more lush, and its aura was much more concentrated.
"If one cultivates under this tree, one's soul and state of mind will be greatly enhanced!"
Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up in excitement.
Even the most ordinary Saint Bodhi Saint Tree possessed the ability to calm one's mind and dispel one's inner demons. Given that this Bodhi Saint Tree had reached the level of Great Sage, its effects were bound to be even more formidable.
"If I were to cultivate under this tree … I might just be able to push for a breakthrough to 30.0 in my Soul Depth!"
His Soul Depth had already reached 29.99, just a sliver away from reaching Ancient Sage. There was no need for him to consume the fruit at all. All he had to do was sit under the tree and comprehend the tree, and it would only be a matter of time before he achieved a breakthrough.
While Zhang Xuan was deep in thought, Wei Ruyan swiftly walked up to the fruit and reached out to grab it.
Weng!
The Bodhi Saint Fruit released a resounding sound, attempting to shake Zhang Xuan's hand away.
However, the young lady swiftly neutralized the force that it exerted through her unique means.
Kacha!
The fruit was plucked.
Tzzzzz!
At the same time that the fruit fell to the ground, black smoke gushed out from the broken tree branch and shrouded Wei Ruyan.
"Is that poisonous gas?"
Zhang Xuan was taken aback.
He did not think that the Bodhi Saint Fruit would emit poisonous gas when it fell to the ground.
It was no wonder those youths dared not pluck the fruit, insisting that she do it. Judging from the concentration of the poisonous gas, if they were to touch the fruit, they might very well be poisoned to death on the spot.
