Below, it was dead silent!
Some people looked at Saintess Ming Yu, Goddess Qian Yu, Wang Luoying and the others for help. However, they all closed their eyes to express their attitude.
Esteemed Master Wuzhen did not attack them, so they were too lazy to get involved in this matter.
"Esteemed Master Wuzhen, you're really going too far!" Only Princess Mu Yan spoke. She stared at Esteemed Master Wuzhen with a sharp aura in her beautiful eyes as she spoke.
"Princess Mu Yan, you'd better not interfere with this old man's matter!" Esteemed Master Wuzhen looked at Princess Mu Yan and said with a cold voice.
"I'm definitely going to interfere in today's matter!" Princess Mu Yan shook her head and said.
"Ziruo!" Esteemed Master Wuzhen did not say anything. Instead, he spoke faintly.
Immediately, the resurrected Fairy Ziruo in the sky shot forth explosively. She immediately charged toward Princess Muyan. As for Princess Muyan, she immediately shifted her body to dodge Fairy Ziruo's attack. However, she also counterattacked.
The two of them were extremely fast. Under Fairy Ziruo's pressure, Princess Mu Yan could only keep retreating. In an instant, the two of them moved as they fought. Very soon, they were far away and could no longer be seen.
Huge disappointment instantly appeared on almost everyone's face. Many people's faces were filled with intense bitterness.
No one was willing to stand up for them. The only person who was willing to stand up for them, Princess Mu Yan, was still entangled. She was unable to free herself and save them. Therefore, it seemed that the matter of offering a drop of blood essence between the eyebrows today was unavoidable.
"Collect the blood essence between the eyebrows!" Esteemed Master Wuzhen ordered. Then, many of his disciples stepped forward and began to force everyone to offer up their blood essence between the eyebrows with cold expressions.
"Run!" Someone suddenly shouted. Then, he turned around and fled. He wanted to leave this place. Hearing that voice, thousands of people immediately took the lead and wanted to flee down the mountain.
However!
Boom! The Wind Lightning Sword in Esteemed Master Wuzhen's hand moved slightly. Instantly, thousands of lightning bolts appeared in the sky. The thousands of lightning bolts suddenly bombarded down and directly shattered the thousands of people.
Such a scene immediately caused the remaining people to stop in their tracks. Everyone's faces revealed intense fear.
"This is the fate of anyone who dares to escape!" Master Wuzhen said indifferently. His voice rang in everyone's ears.
Once again, the area below fell into dead silence.
Some of them had a ferocious look on their faces as they thought about joining forces with others to resist Venerable Wuzhen. However, they quickly gave up on this idea.
The hunter shoots the bird that sticks out!
Although there were many people here today, they didn't know each other. Their hearts were not united, so it was useless even if there were more people. Moreover, Venerable Wuzhen was watching covetously from above. Whoever dared to take the lead would definitely be killed on the spot.
No one wanted to die for others, not to mention that they didn't even know the people around them. So why should they risk being killed on the spot to stand up for others?
Therefore, unless everyone was united and resisted, no matter how many people there were, they could only be forced by Exalted Wuzhen to offer up the blood essence between their eyebrows without being able to resist.
Another moment of silence ensued.
Someone's face was ashen. He suddenly raised his hand and took out a drop of blood essence between his eyebrows before tossing it fiercely at one of Venerable Wuzhen's disciples.
With this person taking the lead, many others immediately became silent and cold. They all took out a drop of blood essence between their eyebrows and tossed it out.
Even though there were still people who wanted to resist, they could only laugh bitterly when they saw this. Then, they took out a drop of blood essence between their eyebrows and gave it to Venerable Wuzhen.
The hearts of people were not united at all.
The situation was hopeless. No one could do anything about it.
"Very good. Once Fairy Ziruo is truly revived, she will personally thank everyone!" Venerable Wuzhen was very satisfied and laughed heartily.
No one below spoke. It was only terrifyingly silent.
.....
While the sudden change in the outside world was happening, Xiao Fan, Xu Zhanqing, and Yan Ziping were completely unaware. The three of them walked straight into the depths of the mountain.
After walking for around 15 minutes, the three of them finally arrived at the deepest part of the mountain.
At the front of the middle of the mountain, a small silver tree that was half the height of a human was growing on a rock. It swayed without any wind, and waves of strange fragrance continued to spread from it. Smelling this fragrance caused one's mind to become clear, and one's mind to become relaxed and happy.
There were fish scale-like things growing on the trunk of this small silver tree. These fish scales gathered together and faintly formed the shape of a small dragon.
This was the Daluo Dragon Tree, and this was where its name came from.
"I-I've struck gold!" Looking at the seventy to eighty finger-sized silver fruits on the small silver tree, Xu Zhanqing's face revealed a look of ecstasy as he shouted loudly.
Xiao Fan looked at the Daluo Dragon Tree with a smile and said, "A total of seventy-six Daluo Dragon Fruits. This is truly beyond my expectations!"
The Daluo Dragon Tree only bore fruit once every ten thousand years, and the number of fruits it bore each time depended on the growth situation at that time. However, the highest it bore was only ninety-nine Daluo Dragon Fruits, and the lowest it bore might even be in the single digits.
Xiao Fan didn't hold much hope in the beginning. He felt that a dozen Daluo Dragon Fruits were enough. Now that there were so many Daluo Dragon Fruits, it was simply more than enough.
"Eh? There's actually a fruit king? Great! " Suddenly, Xiao Fan noticed that there was a fingernail-sized Daluo Dragon Fruit at the top of the small tree. It was the smallest of the Daluo Dragon Fruits.
"Fruit king?" Yan Ziping's face was filled with joy at this moment because he knew that he had one of these Daluo Dragon Fruits. He was immediately surprised when he heard Xiao Fan's voice.
"A fruit king is equivalent to over a hundred Daluo Dragon Fruits. Originally, I might have needed almost all the Daluo Dragon Fruits, but now, this fruit king is enough!" Xiao Fan said with a smile.
In fact, after Xiao Fan swallowed the fruit king, he could also swallow the other Daluo Dragon Fruits to recover his strength. However, Xiao Fan had other uses for the other Daluo Dragon Fruits, so Xiao Fan only needed to swallow the fruit king.
"What are we waiting for? I'll pick these Daluo Dragon Fruits right now! "Xu Zhanqing said with a laugh, and then immediately stepped forward to pick the fruits!
"No!" Xiao Fan immediately stopped Xu Zhanqing and said.
"Why?" Xu Zhanqing was stunned. He stopped and turned to look at Xiao Fan. He didn't understand why Xiao Fan wouldn't let him pick the fruits.
"These Daluo Dragon Fruits are not really ripe yet. It's useless to pick them in advance!" Xiao Fan said, shaking his head.
"What?" Xu Zhanqing and Yan Ziping's eyes flashed with disappointment.
"How many days until these Daluo Dragon Fruits are really ripe? It won't take a few more years, right? "Yan Ziping stared at the Daluo Dragon Fruits and said worriedly.
"Three more days. After three days, all the Daluo Dragon Fruits will be really ripe. After that, swallowing them will have the effect!" Xiao Fan said with certainty.
"Three days, that's not long. We can wait!" Yan Ziping immediately heaved a sigh of relief, and then his face became excited again.
"Then we'll wait here for three days?" Xu Zhanqing asked.
"No need. We'll just take the rock under the Daluo Dragon Tree. We don't need to wait here!" Xiao Fan said, shaking his head.
"It's not difficult to take the rock, but wouldn't it be too conspicuous if we just take the Daluo Dragon Tree out like this without hiding anything?" Yan Ziping scratched his head and said worriedly.
"I have an idea!" Xiao Fan chuckled and immediately walked toward the Daluo Dragon Tree. Xu Zhanqing and Yan Ziping watched from behind as Xiao Fan made his move.
Xiao Fan arrived in front of the Daluo Dragon Tree and spread his fingers. A black hole suddenly appeared beside him. Then, he widened the hole and used his other hand to grab the Daluo Dragon Tree and the rock under it. Then, he carefully placed them into the black hole.
Spiritual Qi Space!
This was one of Xiao Fan's unique skills. He used spiritual qi to create a temporary space that could temporarily store things. However, this Spiritual Qi Space had a huge drawback.
The larger the Spirit Qi Space was, the more things could be stored within it, and the more Spirit Qi would be consumed at every moment. Therefore, Xiao Fan rarely used the Spirit Qi Space. Normally, he would use the Primeval Ring and Primeval Ring to store his belongings.
Now, the Primeval Ring and Primeval Tribulation sisters were not with him, so Xiao Fan could only use the Spiritual Qi Space if he wanted to take the Daluo Dragon Tree away.
After putting away the Daluo Dragon Tree with relative ease, Xiao Fan clapped his hands and walked back. "Alright!"
However, Xu Zhanqing and Yan Ziping were dumbstruck and their mouths were slightly agape.
Time and space were the most profound and mysterious domains in the Central imperial realm. Ordinary people could not touch upon these two things at all, let alone understand how to do it.
Although they did not know what Xiao Fan's inexplicable technique was, it was obviously related to space. This was really unbelievable.
"Master Xiao, what technique was that?" Yan Ziping was interested and asked excitedly.
"Spiritual Qi Space. If you want to learn it, I can teach you later. However, I have to make it clear that this thing is not easy to learn. Even if you learn it, there are some drawbacks and it will be a heavy burden on your body. You have to think about it carefully!" Xiao Fan nodded and said.
"I've thought about it carefully. I'll learn this. I don't care about anything else!" Yan Ziping rubbed his hands and said happily.
"Alright, after the matter on Tianfeng Mountain is over, I'll teach you when I return!" Xiao Fan said with a smile.
"Okay!" Yan Ziping laughed.
"Alright, we have the Daluo Dragon Tree. It's time for us to leave!" Xiao Fan said with a smile as he stepped forward.
