"As for the reward, I can give you any spiritual medicine from the Medicinal Garden of Immortality."
Ling Xian's eyes flashed with heat. He smiled, "This is too tempting. I cannot refuse."
"In other words, you agree?" The woman in white smiled faintly.
"No, I need to ask what it is." Ling Xian shook his head. He wasn't going to put himself in danger for a spiritual medicine. "You are the owner of the Medicinal Garden of Immortality, yet you can't do it. I am just a foundational cultivator. What can I do?"
"That is a long story." The lady in white softly sighed, "You felt the pressure just now. It was caused by me fighting against someone. Just like you, this person came from the outside world."
"From the outside world?"
Ling Xian frowned. His brain spun like electricity and he immediately remembered who that person was. Other than him, only the Alliance of Tyrants had the ability to do this.
"That's right. This person's cultivation level is similar to yours. I could have killed him with a flick of my finger. However, I don't know where he acquired a strange technique that allowed him to fight against me for the right to control the Medicinal Garden of Immortality. " The lady in white's face flashed with hatred, "Just now, he attacked me. The result …"
"The result you lost?" Ling Xian frowned. He didn't think the Alliance of Tyrants would have such a big appetite. They wanted to take control of the Medicinal Garden of Immortality.
"I guess so. He took control of half of the Medicinal Garden of Immortality." The lady in white sighed. She used to be the ruler of the Medicinal Garden of Immortality. She could control every inch of the land and every spiritual medicine.
But now, she had lost half of her control. This meant she was no longer the ruler and could not control everything.
How could she tolerate this?
However, against that strange technique, she had no way to defend against it. Therefore, she could only find a cultivator who could fight against that person. That person was Ling Xian.
"I understand now. You want me to fight against that person." Ling Xian thought about it and asked, "That person's strange technique has no effect on me, right?"
"That's right. That technique only works against spiritual beings like me. It has no effect on you humans." The lady nodded, "Or else I wouldn't have come to you."
"Let me think about it." Ling Xian frowned and analyzed whether or not he should agree to this.
To him, the Alliance of Tyrants was an enemy he would have to face sooner or later. Whether it was sooner or later, it made no difference. If he chose to make a move, not only would he receive the woman's gratitude and friendship, he would also obtain a Godly medicine.
More importantly, it could deal a blow to the Alliance of Tyrants and prevent that person from controlling the Medicinal Garden of Immortality. Or else if the Alliance of Tyrants gains control of this place, then Ling Xian will have nothing to do with it.
He couldn't take any of the spirit herbs with him.
Therefore, there was no reason for Ling Xian to reject a deal that could kill three birds with one stone. But before that, he had to confirm something.
"If I want the Yellow Fruit of Mystery, can you give it to me?" Ling Xian stated his condition.
Hearing this, the lady in white frowned and sighed, "If this was before, I could get you a Yellow Fruit of Mystery. But now, I have lost half of my control over the Medicinal Garden of Immortality. I cannot get it for you."
"Furthermore …"
The woman in white wanted to say something but hesitated.
"And what? If you don't tell me, I won't help you. "Ling Xian frowned.
"If I am not wrong, that person is leading his subordinates to get the Yellow Fruit of Mystery." The lady in white found it hard to hide her disappointment. She thought that because she cannot get the Yellow Fruit of Mystery, Ling Xian wouldn't help her.
In the next second, however, her limpid eyes exploded with color. She stared at Ling Xian, the only human who could help her.
"Dammit, he dares to get his hands on the Yellow Fruit of Mystery."
Ling Xian frowned. The Yellow Fruit of Mystery was something he had to get his hands on. How could he allow others to get their hands on it?
"It seems like you really want the Yellow Fruit of Mystery. We finally have a common goal." The woman in white revealed a smile and said, "If you rush there immediately, you should still be able to make it. If you are strong enough, not only will you be able to obtain the Yellow Fruit of Mystery, but you will also be able to eliminate that person and resolve my crisis."
"It seems like I have to make a trip."
Ling Xian's expression was calm. It was impossible to tell if he was happy or angry. However, his white robe that was fluttering in the wind revealed his anger.
"So, you agree to my request?" The lady in white revealed a smile that could turn the world upside down. She originally thought Ling Xian wouldn't make a move. She didn't think the situation would change. This made her very happy.
Ling Xian softly grinned and teased, "You can say that. But since you cannot give me the Yellow Fruit of Mystery, shouldn't you change your reward?"
"I …"
The lady in white paused and gritted her teeth, "If you can get rid of that person, or kick him out of the Palace of Fortune, I will give you a leaf."
"A leaf?"
Ling Xian was startled. He remembered that the leaf the lady was talking about was probably a part of her body. He smiled, "Okay, I agree to your request."
"Thank you." The lady in white spoke softly. Though giving away a leaf made her heart ache, thinking about how she was going to control the Medicinal Garden of Immortality, she had to agree.
On top of that, she knew very well that in this Medicinal Garden, only Ling Xian could fight against that person.
"There is no need to thank me. It is a trade." Ling Xian brandished his hand. Remembering the message the Essence of Herbalism gave him, he couldn't help but to smile.
Who was this lady before him?
Though it was merely a leaf, it was enough to make all cultivators go crazy. Even the omnipotent would be tempted!
"No matter what, you are willing to help, so you deserve my thanks." The lady in white smiled brightly.
"Do what you want." Ling Xian felt far too lazy to waste time with this lady. "Let's hurry. If we are late, the Yellow Fruit of Mystery will fall into that person's hands."
"Yes, let's go. I will lead the way." The lady nodded softly. Then, she began to fly in the northwest direction.
Seeing this, Ling Xian flapped around his sleeve and set up two low leveled arrays, one for illusions and the other for protection. They wrapped around the unconscious Lu Chao Xian and Fang Yun.
Then, his eyes flashed. He called out to the Winged Blitz and followed behind the lady.
Just like that, the two of them dashed across the sky like shooting stars towards the direction of the Yellow Fruit of Mystery.
…..
Here, hundreds of flowers were blooming and life was exuberant. Above them, clouds and mist swirled around. It was a beautiful scene.
An ancient tree was rooted deep into the ground. Its trunk was strong like a dragon and was surrounded by rays of yellow and mysterious energy. Its branches were luxuriant and covered the sky.
It was the legendary Yellow Fruit of Mystery.
This tree was not well known and was not well known by many. However, it was extremely rare. Even among the many Godly medicines, it was one of the best.
This was all because this tree could produce a strange fruit – the Yellow Fruit of Mystery.
This fruit was born with the essence of heaven and earth and could help a cultivator break through to the undefeatable realm of the foundational level. It was a spiritual medicine that could make any foundational cultivator go crazy.
Right now, there was an orange-yellow fruit hanging on this towering ancient tree. The fruit was shrouded in a hazy mist, and it was extremely mysterious and extraordinary.
In front of the tree stood eight tall men. They were the leader of the Alliance of Tyrants and the geniuses on the Hidden Dragon List.
Eight silhouettes stood there proudly like a giant mountain. No matter how much the sky fell or how much the rain fell, they would not budge or fall.
The man who stood at the front was even more terrifying. The Qi he emitted was as deep as the ocean. He was like a god. Even though he was merely standing there, he exuded an unimaginable amount of energy.
This person was known as the man who was ranked first on the Hidden Dragons List!
It was also this person who took control of half of the Medicinal Garden of Immortality!
At this moment, the eight of them moved out in unison, ready to take this rare fruit for themselves.
"Boss, what are we waiting for? Let's make our move."
A handsome man suddenly spoke as he stared at the Yellow Fruit of Mystery with a heated gaze. However, he knew very well that he would not get his share.
"Yeah, boss. If the eight of us work together, we can totally destroy the Palace of Fortune. Why would we be afraid of not being able to break this enchantment?" A man in black echoed.
The man who was surrounded by murky air grinned, "There is no rush. Let's wait until the enchantment is at its weakest. That way, we can save a lot of energy."
Hearing this, everyone nodded and didn't try to convince him otherwise.
"The Yellow Fruit of Mystery, I finally get to meet you."
The leader of the Alliance of Tyrants exclaimed, "Everyone says I am on par with that monster. It is true. Sadly, that was a year ago. Ever since I lost to him for the Yellow Fruit of Mystery, he has left me behind. Today, I finally have the chance to catch up to him. "
"Haha, congratulations, boss. As long as you break through to the undefeatable realm of the foundational level, you will for sure defeat him and avenge yourself!"
"Yeah, a momentary loss doesn't mean anything. How can he be your opponent?"
"That's right. Boss, you are a God. That person is nothing. Before long, you will be able to defeat him!"
Everyone chimed in, their words were full of flattery.
The leader of the Alliance of Tyrants grinned and ignored everyone's flattery. He asked, "Did you find out who the intruder is?"
"Not yet. We have been busy with the task at hand." A man in a silk robe answered.
"Yes, after today, you can go deal with that." The leader of the Alliance of Tyrants nodded, "No matter who he is, kill him."
Kill him.
One sentence was enough to sentence Ling Xian to death. It was obvious how overbearing this person was.
"Yes, boss!" The man in the silk robe answered.
"It's about time. Make your move." The leader of the Alliance of Tyrants spoke slowly and formed a hand seal. Terrifying Qi rolled up like a tidal wave and headed towards the Yellow Fruit of Mystery!
Seeing this, the other seven made their moves as well. They all displayed their techniques and attacked the invisible barrier!
HOMMMM!
After a loud rumble, all directions shook!
Though the barrier around the Yellow Fruit of Mystery was strong, it could not defend against the combined attack of the eight monsters. It was instantly broken!
Then, the Yellow Fruit of Mystery emitted bright light. A strange aroma filled the air and filled the air.
"Haha, the Yellow Fruit of Mystery, I finally have you!"
The leader of the Alliance of Tyrants laughed out loud. In a flash, he was ready to take the yellow fruit into his pouch.
However, just as his hand was about to touch the Yellow Fruit of Mystery, a long black halberd howled from afar. Terrifying Qi rolled out in all directions!
At the same time, a calm yet domineering voice rang out.
"You dare to touch my Yellow Fruit of Mystery? Have you asked for my permission?"
