This mystic realm was the habitat of the Black Scale Tribe, and the Black Scale Tribe was at the Dao Manipulation Realm. This was because the Black Scale Tribe at the Yuan Underworld Realm wasn't called the Black Scale Tribe anymore. They would undergo a transformation and leave this place.
This was because the Black Scale Tribe was a branch of the Sacred Scale Tribe. After continuous transformation and evolution, they would eventually become the Sacred Scale Tribe.
In Sword Master Dong Ting's memory, the Sacred Scale Tribe was a powerful tribe at the Dao Master level.
Chen Zong, Su Luan, and the You Family Elder You Tianming, who was at the Fifth Transformation Dao Manipulation Realm, temporarily joined forces and continued forward.
However, after obtaining Su Luan's permission, You Tianming collected the skinned corpses of the Black Scale Tribe members. According to him, he wanted to bring them back to feed the star beasts of the Black Scale Tribe.
Su Luan and Chen Zong didn't object to this.
Thousand Scale Stones, Scale Blade Grass, and Black Scale Fruits. The three of them would gain something every time they discovered them. Of course, when they encountered the Black Scale Tribe members, a battle would break out.
When they encountered a Sixth Transformation Black Scale Tribe member, the three of them joined forces and You Tianming used a secret technique to finally kill him.
However, the three of them were also injured and had to rest for a while.
Fortunately, although this was the habitat of the Black Scale Tribe, there didn't seem to be many of them.
After recovering from their injuries and strength, the three of them continued forward.
After that, they didn't encounter any Black Scale Tribe members above the Fifth Transformation.
Go deeper!
The three of them joined forces and restrained their auras as they stepped into the depths of the secret realm.
"The Black Scale Tribe is gathering in the depths. It seems that something big is happening," You Tianming transmitted.
No wonder there weren't many Black Scale Tribe members in the periphery and they weren't very strong.
If a large number of Black Scale Tribe members were gathering in the depths, something big must have happened. What was it?
The three of them immediately discussed and decided to take the risk and go deeper.
Wealth came from danger.
Each of them had their own life-saving methods.
They restrained their auras and slowly sneaked in. Chen Zong and the others also saw it.
In the depths, there was a ten-meter-wide circular platform. It seemed to be an altar, and there were thousands of Black Scale Fruits on it.
After waking up, Chen Zong had eaten more than a hundred Black Scale Fruits. His World Divine Body was also gradually approaching the peak of the second transformation.
Moreover, the thousands of Black-Scaled Fruits were all ripe, which made Chen Zong envious. If he could eat most of them, his World Divine Body would definitely be upgraded to the peak of Rank Two. At that time, he would be able to further understand the mysteries of the Great Dao of the World and break through to Rank Three, becoming even more powerful.
However, Chen Zong did not move. This was because there were hundreds of Black Scale Tribe members gathered around the ten-meter Black Scale Altar.
When the Black Scale Tribe members did not unleash their full power, their scales would not appear, so it was hard to tell which rank they were at. However, Chen Zong could roughly sense it with his godly senses.
Among the hundreds of people from the Black Scale Tribe, there were more than a dozen who gave Chen Zong a strong sense of crisis.
Chen Zong estimated that these dozen or so Black Scale clansmen were all Rank Seven and above.
In addition, there were also some Black Scale clansmen who gave him a sense of threat.
The other Black Scale clansmen were not weak either. Chen Zong secretly estimated that the lowest level of the Black Scale Tribe members should not be lower than Rank Four Dao Controlling Realm.
This was undoubtedly shocking.
Once they were discovered, the three of them would be in trouble.
Under the leadership of the Black Scale Tribe member, who was the tallest and strongest among them, his body was covered in pure black scales. There was even a trace of purple light flashing across his body. Hundreds of Black Scale Tribe members surrounded the Black Scale Altar. They raised their hands up high with a devout look on their faces. They seemed to be chanting something.
Hundreds of Black Scale clansmen were chanting together. Their voices converged into one and gradually became louder.
It felt as if they were performing some kind of ritual, as if they were worshipping a god.
Chen Zong watched while searching the memories of Sword Master Dong Ting and the Black Scale Tribe. Finally, he found it because Sword Master Dong Ting had seen it before.
This was indeed some kind of ritual, but it was not worshipping a god.
The strange chanting became louder and louder. Next, the black scales on the altar glowed brightly, wrapping around thousands of ripe Black Scale Fruits. They kept shining, and the Black Scale Fruit in the center flew into the air.
Immediately after, streams of black aura flew out from the surrounding Black Scale Fruits and quickly spread towards the Black Scale Fruit in the center, entering it.
As it continued to absorb the aura of the surrounding Black Scale Fruits, the Black Scale Fruit in the center began to emit a dim light. Each scale was expanding, causing the entire Black Scale Fruit to continue to grow.
But after the other Black Scale Fruits emitted the aura, they rapidly shrank. They did not shrink, but became dry and dim, as if they had lost their moisture.
They were hollowed out.
Su Luan did not understand what was going on, but she also felt that something incredible was happening.
When thousands of Black Scale Fruits became dry and shriveled, the Black Scale Fruit in the center grew more than ten times. From the size of a fist, it became a giant Black Scale Fruit that was bigger than a human head.
However, the chanting continued.
As the giant Black Scale Fruit spun, it emitted a black light and its color gradually changed.
Traces of purple light swam within the black light and gradually grew stronger, gradually replacing the black light.
The purple light flickered. Although it was a little faint, it completely replaced the black light. The aura it emitted had reached a whole new level.
In that instant, You Tianming's eyes shone brightly, but it disappeared in a flash.
The purple light began to recede, and the Black Scale Fruit also began to shrink.
As it shrank, the color of the black scales gradually changed to purple.
"Purple Scale Fruit!" Chen Zong's pupils shrank.
If the Black Scale Tribe evolved, they would become the Purple Scale Tribe, which was equivalent to the Yuan Underworld Realm.
The Purple Scaled Fruit was of a higher level than the Black Scaled Fruit.
If the Black Scale Tribe members grew to the peak and wanted to break through, they would have to undergo a life transformation. Consuming the Purple Scale Fruit was one of the ways.
Obviously, the most powerful member of the Black Scale Clan, who had a faint purple glow on his body, had already stepped on the path of transformation. However, if he wanted to truly transform, he would have to spend a lot of time on his own.
If he consumed a Purple Scale Fruit, he would be able to successfully transform in a short time and become a member of the Purple Scale Tribe.
It was no wonder that they could enter the depths so easily. Most of the powerful Black Scale Tribe members were gathered at the altar in the depths, which was why they were able to enter unimpeded.
Although Su Luan wasn't very clear, she understood that the value of the Purple Scale Fruit was definitely very shocking.
"That is the Purple Scale Fruit. It is a treasure that can allow the Black Scale Tribe to transform. It should be the most valuable treasure here." You Tianming's voice rang out in Chen Zong and Su Luan's ears. "According to the previous agreement, the Purple Scale Fruit belongs to Su Luan. How about this? I will make a move first and lure the Black Scale Tribe away. This will give you an opportunity to take the Purple Scale Fruit."
You Tianming's way of doing things could be said to be a good example. Of course, on the way here, he was also like this.
According to Su Luan's understanding, the You family's second elder was very good. He was one of the few good people among the cultivators.
After saying this, before Chen Zong and Su Luan could reply, You Tianming's body flashed. He instantly turned into a ray of black light and flew out. At the same time, he exploded with shocking power.
With a boom, You Tianming also stabbed out with his spear. It was like a ray of black lightning that pierced through the sky. It violently shot out as if it had pierced through the sun and moon.
The black spear continued forward as if it was going to shatter everything.
The outermost Black Scale Tribe member couldn't react in time and was instantly pierced by the spear and died.
After killing a Black Scale Tribe member with one spear, You Tianming didn't stupidly charge into the Black Scale Tribe. Instead, he turned in the air and quickly flew to the side. He decisively wanted to lure the Black Scale Tribe members away to create an opportunity for Chen Zong and Su Luan.
The leader of the Black Scale Tribe members let out an angry roar. His killing intent soared. Immediately, the other Black Scale Tribe members all moved and chased after him.
However, You Tianming, who used his secret method, was especially powerful.
Originally, You Tianming's strength had reached rank five peak stage. After using his secret method, he could be considered to have reached rank six. After killing another two Black Scale Tribe members, he killed his way out of the small encirclement.
After killing two rank four and one rank five Black Scale Tribe members, he had completely angered the Black Scale Tribe members. More Black Scale Tribe members erupted with shocking power and immediately chased after him.
Scales coiled around him like chains.
The strongest Black Scale Tribe members had nine scales around their bodies. They faintly flashed with traces of purple. Although it was very weak, it emitted an extremely terrifying aura.
Most of the Black Scale Tribe members were lured away by You Tianming. However, there were still a few Black Scale Tribe members who didn't chase after him. Instead, they guarded beside the altar and waited for the purple scale fruit to be completed.
Thus, You Tianming's sacrifice didn't have much effect.
"Brother Chen, that purple scale fruit is very useful to me. Can you give it to me?" Su Luan's eyes shined brightly. This purple scale fruit's value was definitely very high. It would be of great use to his godson.
"Sure." Chen Zong didn't hesitate. Although this purple scale fruit might allow his world body to reach the peak of the second transformation, it would be difficult for him to break through to the third transformation. This was because the breakthrough required him to comprehend the mysteries of the great dao.
In addition, Chen Zong had accompanied Su Luan since the beginning. The purple scale fruit should belong to Su Luan.
"Many thanks." Su Luan thanked him solemnly and then said, "I once obtained a secret treasure that can be used multiple times. It can also be used once to resist attacks below the Yuan Underworld realm for a certain period of time. I will use this secret treasure to protect myself and attract the attention of the remaining Black Scale Tribe members. Brother Chen, do you have confidence in obtaining the purple scale fruit?"
Whether or not he could obtain it was still unknown, but he could only take a gamble.
Now that most of the Black Scale Tribe members had been lured away by You Tianming, the pressure and difficulty of the two had decreased.
Su Luan took out the final protective secret treasure. After using it, the secret treasure would be destroyed. If they couldn't obtain the purple scale fruit, the loss would be shocking.
"I will obtain it." Chen Zong's tone was very certain, which made Su Luan believe him.
"Okay, then I'll have to trouble Brother Chen." With a trace of joy, Su Luan's eyes flashed with determination.
She exploded and turned into a stream of light, flying towards the Black Scale Tribe members.
