With a slight shake of his arm, the blood on the sword condensed into a drop and shot out a few meters away. With a bang, it broke open the ground.
The Black Demon Sect Fourth Cycle Realm martial artist's eyes widened. He covered his chest with both hands and fell to the ground with a face full of unwillingness and fear.
Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that with his Fourth Transformation Stage cultivation base, even if he was only at the Initial Stage of the Fourth Transformation Stage, with his tyrannical physique, he was not inferior to an ordinary Middle Stage of the Fourth Transformation Stage human. Yet, he could not even block a single strike from his opponent.
Of course, there was some contempt in his heart, but more of it was due to his opponent's strength.
What he did not know was that when Chen Zong's cultivation was still at the late stage of the Third Transformation of the Jin Training Realm, he was able to fight Bai Yuxiao to a draw. Bai Yuxiao's cultivation was at the late stage of the Fourth Transformation of the Jin Training Realm, and he was considered a genius, the kind that could challenge those of a higher level.
Now that Chen Zong had broken through to the Third Cycle Realm, his strength had increased again. It would not be difficult to kill him with one strike.
Unfortunately, other than finding a few low-grade Rejuvenation Pills, there was no other harvest.
"Even Black Demon Sect martial artists have appeared. The situation is even more complicated." Chen Zong thought to himself.
Previously, Demon Sword Star and Fei Yuanji winked at him. It seemed that this was what they meant.
However, they did not know that he did not merge with the bloodline of a demon beast. Instead, he borrowed the will of an ancient demon beast to cultivate to the peak of the Blood Qi realm. His Blood Qi was pure and flawless.
Speaking of which, Black Demon Sect martial artists could sense each other's aura.
North of the Western Wasteland.
There was a small protruding hill about thirty meters high. The hill was barren and not even a blade of grass grew. Strangely, there was a four meter tall tree at the top of the hill.
The tree was very strange. It had no leaves and its branches were dark red as if they were made of metal. The branches were coiled together and gradually spread upwards like a blooming flower.
On the tree trunk, there were nine egg-sized fruits that looked like metal. However, six of them were red and were turning dark red. Three of them were green.
At the bottom of the hill, there were three groups of people. Their eyes were fixed on the six dark red fruits. Their breathing was slightly hurried, but no one took the initiative to pick them.
"It is indeed a Minor Breakthrough Fruit."
"Is it the kind of divine fruit that claims to allow one to break through from the initial stage of the Training Force realm to the middle stage of the Training Force realm without any side effects, and two to break through from the middle stage of the Training Force realm to the late stage of the Training Force realm without any side effects?"
"That's right. It's that divine fruit."
The eyes of the three groups of people lit up.
They were all waiting for the six Small Breakthrough Fruits to ripen. As for the other three, it would take a few more days for them to ripen. It was possible that even after a month, they still might not ripen.
"Six Minor Realm Breaking Fruits. How about the three of us take two each?" One of the Tianwu Academy's sixth revolution disciples suggested.
Before the Giant Blade Academia's disciple could say anything, the people from the Genius Training Camp were already sneering.
"Split equally? What qualifications do you have? We want four, and you can split the other two." A sixth transition Jin Training Realm warrior from the genius training camp sneered.
"Lu Qingyu, your appetite is too big. Aren't you afraid of being stuffed to death?" The sixth transition Jin Training Realm warrior from the Giant Blade Academia, Yang Xuanguang, said coldly. His aura was overbearing, and the long-handled broadsword in his hand was even more shocking.
"Lu Qingyu, don't be too arrogant." The sixth transition Jin Training Realm disciple from the Tianwu Academy, Yu Wen Tang, also had a cold expression.
Coincidentally, each of the three groups had a sixth transition Jin Training Realm warrior, two fifth transition Jin Training Realm warriors, and the other three third transition Jin Training Realm warriors. Moreover, they were all very strong geniuses.
For example, one of the ten warriors of the Tianwu Academy, one of the nine treasured blades of the Giant Blade Academia, and one of the three absolute warriors of the genius training camp.
No matter who it was, the Minor Realm Breaking Fruits were very attractive to them.
The attraction of a breakthrough without any side effects was unparalleled.
One had to know that breaking through from the initial stage to the middle stage, and from the middle stage to the late stage, was not easy. Even the top geniuses needed to spend enough time to settle down.
One or two Minor Realm Breaking Fruits were enough to erase that time. Breaking through without any side effects would give one more time to cultivate.
When martial artists cultivated, especially geniuses, what they fought for was time. They fought for time with others, and they fought for time with themselves.
Wang Feilong of the ten warriors, Nan Lijie of the nine treasured blades, and Dao Jue of the three absolute warriors all had burning eyes. They only needed one Minor Realm Breaking Fruit, and with their accumulation, once they broke through, their cultivation would reach the peak of the fourth transition Jin Training Realm in a very short time. After settling down for a while, breaking through to the fifth transition Jin Training Realm would not be a problem, and they would be ahead of other geniuses of the same level.
"If that's the case, then I'll kill all of you." Lu Qingyu's face was full of smiles. His tone was calm, as if he was talking about the most normal thing in the world. There was a sense of creepiness in his tone.
"Too arrogant."
"Let's work together."
Yang Xuanguang, Yu Wen Tang, and the others were furious. They immediately attacked Lu Qingyu.
If they worked together to kill the genius training camp, they would be able to get six Minor Realm Breaking Fruits. At least, they would get more than the two Minor Realm Breaking Fruits.
"Do you think I'm afraid of you?" Lu Qingyu smiled coldly. He was not afraid of the two sides working together. He unsheathed his long blade. The bright blade light was like a crescent moon hanging in the sky. Then, it struck down. The blade cut through the air, but it directly broke the joint force of Yu Wen Tang and Yang Xuanguang.
Yu Wen Tang's body flashed, and the Six Changes appeared around Lu Qingyu. Both of his hands attacked continuously. His palms slapped, his claws tore, and his fists punched out. Every shadow seemed to be real, and every attack contained a terrifying power.
Yang Xuanguang waved his long blade. The blade light was dazzling, like a rushing river. It whistled with a shocking momentum, and fiercely chopped down on Lu Qingyu's head.
When the three in the lead attacked, the others followed suit.
The fruit on the Minor Realm Breaking Tree gradually ripened.
At this time, a figure came from afar. It seemed to be riding the wind, and the figure was light and fast.
Even from a distance, the sharp eyes could see the two sides fighting. Yes, the disciples of Tianwu Academy and Giant Blade Academy were working together to deal with the geniuses of the training camp.
"That's Dao Jue." Chen Zong's eyes fell on one of them. He had a long blade in his hand, and it revealed an incomparable sharpness. Every blade emitted a dazzling light, as if every blade could cut through everything. It was incomparable.
Wang Feilong, one of the Ten Warriors, and Nan Lijie, one of the Nine Treasured Blades, worked together, but they could only fight to a draw.
It was undeniable that Wang Feilong and Nan Lijie were very strong. They were not inferior to the Seven Sword Stars of the True Sword Academy. However, Dao Jue, one of the Three Absolutes of the Genius Training Camp, could fight one against two. He was even gradually gaining the upper hand. This was enough to show how strong the geniuses of the training camp were.
The battle was very intense. It was basically one against two. Chen Zong watched carefully, and habitually simulated how he would fight if he were their opponent.
Out of the corner of his eye, Chen Zong caught a glimpse of a dark red color. He immediately looked over.
"Dark red color, like metal …."
"That's …."
Chen Zong's pupils contracted involuntarily.
"Minor Realm Breaking Fruit!"
Involuntarily, Chen Zong's breathing quickened.
His cultivation had reached the peak of the Third Cycle of the Force Refining Realm, but it was only the beginning. He still needed some time to consolidate and reach the true limit. He needed to slowly accumulate and then seek a breakthrough. Only then would he be able to advance by leaps and bounds when he reached the Fourth Cycle of the Force Refining Realm. He could even break through to the Fifth Cycle of the Force Refining Realm in a short period of time.
This was what every genius did. Of course, it was another matter if they were not geniuses. They were already extremely lucky to be able to break through to the Fourth Cycle of the Force Refining Realm. How could they ask for anything else?
According to Chen Zong's own estimation, he would need to spend at least half a year or more to consolidate his cultivation at the peak of the Third Cycle of the Force Refining Realm before seeking a breakthrough.
Time was very important to Chen Zong, especially now that he was surrounded by strong enemies.
However, if he took the risk to break through to the Fourth Cycle of the Force Refining Realm, he would have to spend a lot of time consolidating his cultivation. If he wanted to advance further, it would be even more difficult.
Now, as long as he could get his hands on a small breakthrough fruit, everything would be fine. After consuming it, his cultivation would reach the maximum level of consolidation. Then, he would be able to advance by leaps and bounds in a short period of time.
"I must get it," Chen Zong said to himself with a firm tone.
There were six small breakthrough fruits that were about to ripen. It would be best if he could get all of them. However, Chen Zong did not dare to hope for too much. One would be enough.
With a firm and sharp gaze, Chen Zong burst out at full speed. He turned into a gust of wind and sprinted towards the hill.
His cultivation was at the peak of the Third Cycle of the Force Refining Realm. However, in terms of speed, he was not inferior to a Fourth Cycle of the Force Refining Realm. In fact, he was even slightly faster.
Not long after, Chen Zong went around it and rushed up the hill from the other side, approaching the small breakthrough tree.
"Who is it?"
"Damn it."
"Kill him."
The people who were fighting fiercely also noticed Chen Zong, the unexpected guest. Their expressions changed drastically. They were extremely angry and murderous. They gave up on their opponents and rushed towards Chen Zong one after another.
The three Sixth Cycle of the Force Refining Realm cultivators were the fastest. However, Chen Zong had already rushed to the small breakthrough tree and stared at the six small breakthrough fruits on it.
"Faster …" Chen Zong was a little anxious.
He was no match for the Sixth Cycle of the Force Refining Realm cultivators. Once they rushed up to him, he could only turn around and leave.
Finally, the six small breakthrough fruits turned dark red and ripened.
Chen Zong leaped over and unsheathed his sword. The sword flashed like a meteor and cut off the roots of the six small breakthrough fruits. He used his strength cleverly and the five small breakthrough fruits quickly flew towards the three Sixth Cycle of the Force Refining Realm cultivators.
He reached out and grabbed the sixth small breakthrough fruit in his hand. Without hesitation, he turned around and used all his strength to perform the Wind and Water Tread and flew away.
"Mine." Lu Qingyu swept with one hand, trying to catch all five small breakthrough fruits. The other hand chopped with the long saber, trying to force Yuwen Tang and Yang Xuanguang to retreat.
"Go away." Yang Xuanguang waved his saber, creating a terrifying whirlwind of saber light.
Yuwen Tang did not say a word. He clenched his hands into fists and punched out instantly. His fists were fierce and violent, like a flood breaking through a dam.
In the face of five Minor Breakthrough Fruits, all thoughts of joining forces were thrown to the back of their minds. As for Chen Zong, they didn't care. They couldn't give up on the five Minor Breakthrough Fruits here just because of Chen Zong's Minor Breakthrough Fruit.
