"Before accepting my inheritance, there's something you need to know."
Peiyuan Zi suddenly said.
Zhao Tong nodded hurriedly. "Senior, please speak."
"My secular name is Jiang, and I come from an extremely powerful family. However, I did something wrong when I was young, and my name has already been removed from the family. If you accept my inheritance, you must fulfill my dying wish, and one day, return to the Jiang family!"
Peiyuan Zi said with a solemn expression.
"Senior, how can I return to the Jiang family?"
Zhao Tong asked subconsciously.
Peiyuan Zi nodded in satisfaction. "If you agreed, you'd be dead by now."
Zhao Tong was startled and felt a lingering fear.
"Kill! Kill all the ancient Immortals in the world and obtain great military merits. Then, you'll have the chance to return to the Jiang family. I've already lost. I'll pin my future hopes on you. I hope you won't disappoint me. "
Peiyuan Zi sneered, killing intent flashing in his eyes. Then, without waiting for Zhao Tong to speak, he slapped his palm on Zhao Tong's head.
… …
In the Mist Mountain, some people obtained immortal fruits and were overjoyed. Some obtained pseudo-dao treasures and low-grade dao treasures and were overjoyed. However, apart from these people with fortuitous opportunities, there were also some unlucky people who encountered all sorts of dangers as soon as they entered the Mist Mountain. Some died, some were crippled, and all they wanted to do was to leave the Mist Mountain. They were all geniuses, and the fortuitous opportunities they obtained were more than ordinary.
There were much more fortuitous opportunities. Only when they entered this place did they come to a sudden realization. It turned out that their luck was much weaker than the others. This feeling of disparity caused these people to gradually change their mentality. They no longer tried to seize the fortune from the Misty Mountain Peak, but instead searched for the lone fellows and robbed them.
Fortuitous opportunities from people! In a certain corner of the Mist Mountain, Ying Zhenxuan, He Ze, Jiu Jian, Li Zhangtong, Luobo, and hundreds of other Earth Immortal geniuses coincidentally gathered in one place after going through all sorts of dangers. They all saw a corpse that looked lifelike, as if it wasn't dead yet.
The corpse's hands were crossed, holding a withered fruit that faintly emitted the aura of the Dao.
"Dao Fruit! This is a Dao Fruit! "
Luobo cried out in excitement!
Initially, Ying Zhenxuan and the rest were still unsure of the origins of the fruit. After hearing Luobo's words, their expressions turned solemn and they looked at the crowd with fear.
"To think that a Grand Luo would pass away in meditation."
"When a Grand Luo passes away in meditation, their Daofruit would probably dissipate within the world and return to the Dao. However, there are a few Grand Luo who possess secret arts that allow them to preserve their Daofruit after passing away in meditation to benefit their descendants. Clearly, this Grand Luo has such a secret art."
Since the origin of the Dao fruit had been revealed by Luobo, some of the prodigies who had studied the Dao fruit also began to display their profound knowledge.
Dao fruits were the symbol of a Perfected Golden Immortal's strength. Basically, after a Perfected Golden Immortal's death, they would dissipate and return to the great dao.
However, there were also a few major powers who had researched some secret arts that could allow a Grand Luo to preserve their dao fruits after their death.
However, the preserved dao fruits were already very different from when a Perfected Golden Immortal was still alive. Just like divine fruits, they could only be consumed or used for alchemy. They could not borrow the Dao Qi within them, nor could they hatch the power of Dao.
However, there was a sliver of a chance that one could obtain a tiny bit of Dao Qi by consuming the fruit directly or using it for alchemy. That was an extremely rare and precious item for beings below Arcane Immortal, even Perfected Golden Immortals!
"Um, there are so many of us, and there's only one Dao Fruit. How are we going to split it?"
Luobo said with a grin.
"Nonsense. Is there a need to say more? Of course we'll fight it out, and whoever is the strongest will get the Dao Fruit! "
An Earthly Immortal prodigy from the outside world sneered and glanced at Luobo.
He Ze and the others did not look too good. They had encountered a great opportunity, but there were countless beings who were stronger than them competing for it. If they were to really fight, there was no way their strength would stand a chance.
Although He Ze was a true disciple of the Mystic Sword Sect, there were only a few Earthly Immortals who could beat him back then. But now, there were hundreds of Earthly Immortal prodigies present, and at least half of them could beat him!
"That won't do. There are so many of us. If we fight, and someone steals the Dao Fruit, what should we do?"
Luobo shook his head.
Everyone looked at each other when they heard that, because they realized that Luobo's words made sense.
But if that was the case, could it be that they could only stare at the Dao Fruit and not make a move?
For a moment, the atmosphere was a little tense.
Soon, everyone was at a stalemate for several days. No one dared to take a step closer to the Dao Fruit, because if they did, they would be surrounded and attacked by everyone, and their fate would be extremely miserable!
"Senior Sister Ying, from the looks of it, they won't be able to get the Dao Fruit either."
A few inner disciples of the Mystic Sword Sect gathered around Ying Zhenxuan. Although most of their cultivation was higher than Ying Zhenxuan's, they still addressed her as senior sister.
"That's right."
Ying Zhenxuan nodded her head. A trace of ridicule flashed through her eyes.
The opportunity was right in front of them, but not a single one of these geniuses, who were much stronger than them, dared to make a move to snatch it. This stalemate could only be broken by the appearance of an existence that could suppress everyone.
"I wonder where big brother is right now. Is he in the Misty Mountain? If he is here, who would dare to covet this Dao Fruit?"
Ying Zhenxuan said in her heart.
"This won't do. If this continues, if a few geniuses from the Earthly Immortal Ranking List come, we won't have a share of the Dao Fruit!"
Luobo said.
"Then what do you suggest we do?"
"You must be a disciple of the Ascension Sect. The Ascension Sect is a famous sect in the Langya Immortal Domain. Why don't you tell us the rules?"
"How about we play rock-paper-scissors? Whoever wins will take the Dao Fruit. "
Luobo said after pondering for a moment.
The crowd looked at Luobo in a daze. After a long while, they all shifted their gazes. No matter what suggestion Luobo made, no one bothered to pay attention to him.
They discovered that Luobo's mind seemed to be a bit muddled.
"Look!"
An Earthly Immortal genius suddenly cried out in alarm.
The crowd's gazes were all focused on the Dao Fruit. Even without his reminder, the crowd discovered that the Dao Fruit seemed to be undergoing some sort of special change.
Whoosh!
The Dao Fruit suddenly soared into the sky and floated in midair.
The crowd's expressions immediately became incomparably nervous and grave.
This scene somewhat resembled the Dao Fruit choosing its master!
"Senior brother He Ze! What's going on? "
Li Zhangtong and the others all looked at He Ze.
"Silence!"
