In a low valley, the waterfall went straight down for thousands of feet, crashing into the pool that had been deposited under the cliff for many years. Countless jade-like water droplets splashed. At this time, dozens of cultivators were gathered downstream of the waterfall. On two short spiritual trees, there were eleven Seven-Orifice Fruits emitting bursts of light golden mist. They were the Gold Condensed Gold Fruits. Looking at these eleven Gold Condensed Fruits, everyone's eyes were full of fanaticism. Although not all of the people present were Gold Condensed Gold Condensed Fruits, the preciousness of the Gold Condensed Fruit was self-evident. As long as they could get it, they might be able to exchange it for a suitable Gold Condensed Fruit in the future. Even if they didn't need it, it would definitely be sold at a sky-high price. It was enough to make all the Foundation Establishment Cultivators risk their lives for it. However, a few feet away from the Gold Condensed Fruit Tree, there were two pure golden raccoons without a trace of hair. They looked as smooth as a mirror, but there was an obvious "King" character on the forehead of these two raccoons. The smoothness of their bodies made people feel that they were perfect works of art, without a trace of impurity.
Qu Cats! They were the best among the demonic beasts. Each of them was far more powerful than other demonic beasts of the same level, but they didn't look like demonic beasts. These two raccoons looked like two different species.
However, there were only eleven Gold Condensed Gold Condensed Fruits, but there were already more than thirty cultivators present. Su Qing and Luo Qian were among them.
"There are so many people. It's really troublesome. It's a pity that Brother Lu is not here. If he were here, with the strength of the three of us, we could get a lot." Su Qing withdrew her gaze from the Gold Condensed Fruit with a dignified look on her face. Now she was no longer the descendant of Jin Dan who grew up in a honey pot. When she was in the Lianqi Realm, she was indeed closely protected by her school. She never lacked the elixirs and spiritual weapons for cultivation. However, since she started in the Bloody Forbidden Area, she had also experienced a lot. She would not simply be blinded by the immediate interests. Even if the Gold Condensed Fruit was in front of her, she would habitually analyze the pros and cons.
Su Qing's situation was the same as that of most powerful cultivator clans. When she was in the Qi Refining stage, she had to face too many threats, and the protection she received from her clan was even tighter. When she was about to enter the Foundation Establishment stage, or after she succeeded in entering the Foundation Establishment stage, her clan would gradually let her go and let her gradually experience the cruelty of the Cultivation World. After all, those who could support a cultivation family were basically far-sighted and knew that the flowers in the greenhouse could not withstand the wind and rain.
"If Lu Xiaotian was here, we would naturally be able to get more Gold Condensed Fruits. Now, with only the two of us, although our strength is strong, we are still a little weak. If we want to get more Gold Condensed Fruits, I'm afraid it will not be easy. Others will not agree easily." Although Luo Qian was a little unwilling, he did not refute. Because of Su Qing, Luo Qian had always been hostile to Lu Xiaotian. However, he had to admit that when Lu Xiaotian was here, he did give people a sense of security.
"Why don't we join forces, grab and run, and get one more for Brother Lu? As long as a fight breaks out, we will have the opportunity to fish in troubled waters. Once the situation becomes chaotic, we can grab and run. There are still several Gold Condensed Fruits here. When others see that we are strong, they will definitely pick on the weaker ones. Brother Lu has helped us so much and even saved our lives. It is only right that we help him get a Gold Condensed Fruit. What do you think? "Su Qing's expression flickered.
"Alright." Although Luo Qian felt that doing this would inevitably be risky, he, who was arrogant by nature, wanted to repay Lu Xiaotian's favor as soon as possible.
"Haha … What a coincidence. If this Young Master had come a little later, I'm afraid the Gold Condensed Fruit would have been taken away." Amidst the arrogant laughter, nine figures flew down from the waterfall. The one in the lead was the red-haired youth, Cheng Tao, who had met with Su Qing and Luo Qian once before.
There were only thirty or so cultivators present. The red-haired youth had brought nine people with him, making up a quarter of the total number. In addition, Cheng Tao was confident in his own strength and had several experts by his side. He was confident that he had the upper hand.
"Everyone, this Young Master is the son of Xuanye City's Cheng Family's Patriarch, Jin Dan. This time, I have received orders from my father to come and get this Gold Condensed Fruit. I hope that everyone here can give me some face."
Cheng Tao felt very good about himself. He cupped his hands and bowed slightly to everyone present. However, the corner of his mouth was raised with confidence. His luck was good. He basically knew all the reputable Foundation Building cultivators in Xuanye City, but none of them appeared here. In other words, if these people were to have a conflict with him, they would inevitably lose some confidence. Cheng Tao's gaze swept through the crowd and landed on Su Qing. His eyes immediately lit up. He didn't expect that the lovely person he had been thinking about day and night would appear in front of him. Previously, he didn't want to delay the Gold Condensed Fruit, so he let Su Qing leave. Now, Su Qing had more than one less helper by her side. Furthermore, the Gold Condensed Fruit was right in front of him. After he solved the problem of the Gold Condensed Fruit, would he still be afraid that this little beauty would be able to escape from his hands? As for Wu Gang and his two brothers, they were nowhere to be seen. However, he didn't care whether those two pieces of trash were dead or alive.
Seeing Cheng Tao's undisguised greed, Luo Qian's expression became furious. He took a step forward, but was stopped by Su Qing's gaze. Although Su Qing was also somewhat vexed, it wasn't the time to be impulsive in this situation. She took a step forward and said, "Ownerless treasures belong to the virtuous. If everyone gives you face just because you have Senior Jin Dan as your father, then wouldn't all the treasures in the world belong to you? "
"That's right. Isn't it just because you have a Jin Dan stage father? When your father isn't by your side, who would recognize you? If you want to take the Gold Condensed Fruit, then you'll have to see if your skills are as good as your mouth." Hearing Su Qing's words, the other thirty or so cultivators laughed wildly. No one was willing to easily give up the Gold Condensed Fruit in front of them. After all, for the majority of cultivators, the Gold Condensed Fruit represented an opportunity to form their Gold Core. Being able to encounter it by chance was already a great opportunity. If they missed it, only heaven knew if they would have another chance to encounter it in the future. As soon as Cheng Tao appeared, he wanted everyone present to yield. Although these people were temporarily silent, it didn't mean that they had given up. They were just weighing the pros and cons. Now that Su Qing had taken the lead, the others were even more unscrupulous. Cheng Tao's group of nine people was the largest force present. However, there were still thirty or so cultivators present. Being able to obtain the Gold Condensed Fruit in the end would naturally depend on their own abilities. Whoever wanted to monopolize it would be making an enemy of everyone present.
"You're courting death!" Cheng Tao was so angry that his face turned ashen. He didn't think that not only would these people not give him face, they would even insult him. A blue light flashed in his hand and a huge blue pearl slowly floated above his head, emitting a gentle blue halo. However, although the halo was gentle, the powerful aura it emitted made everyone present feel suffocated. Within the blue pearl, there seemed to be countless blue serpents swimming and roaring. If it weren't for the thin layer of barrier restraining them, they would've probably charged out layer by layer.
"A water-elemental Jindan mystic tool!" someone immediately cried out. The power of this aura was enough to threaten everyone present. Most people's expressions changed. Although Cheng Tao's Jindan mystic tool wasn't enough to fight against everyone present, the first person to fight him would have a hard time surviving. As the saying goes, the hunter shoots the bird that sticks out first. No one was willing to be taken advantage of.
Seeing that everyone present had fallen silent, a cold smile flashed across Cheng Tao's face. "Now, does anyone have any objections?"
"Of course there are objections. Don't tell me you think that with just a Jindan mystic tool, you can fight against more than thirty Foundation Establishment cultivators? If we really fight, it's hard to say who will win. "Luo Qian took a step forward and looked coldly at Cheng Tao.
"You're courting death!" A fierce look flashed across Cheng Tao's eyes. He wasn't an idiot. Naturally, he knew that it was impossible for him to take the Gold Condensing Fruit for himself. After all, the opportunity to form a Gold Core was enough to make everyone go crazy. Even if he had the Jade Serpent Pearl, he still couldn't win against a pack of wolves. The reason why he proposed such an outrageous condition at the beginning was to put a huge psychological pressure on everyone present. Once he dealt with the troublemakers, he would give in a little and take the bigger share. The others would feel that he had already given in. This way, he could smoothly take the bigger share. Of course, the biggest reason why he dared to be so arrogant was because of the Jade Serpent Pearl and the eight followers behind him. In addition, the nearest immortal city was Xuanye City. Although the people here were disrespectful, they couldn't ignore Jin Dan's father behind him. Things were developing in the direction he expected. However, before that, he had to deal with the troublemakers and establish his prestige in front of everyone.
"Fine. I originally didn't want to make a move. Since you're looking for death, then don't blame me. Even if others take the opportunity to snatch the Gold Condensing Fruit, I will deal with you first. "
After saying this, Cheng Tao let out a clear whistle. The Jade Serpent Pearl above his head shone with a blue light. The countless Jade Serpents inside seemed to be stimulated and swam around quickly. The blue barrier surrounding the Jade Serpents also became bigger and thinner, as if ready to release the Jade Serpents at any time.
The Second Young Master was really calculating. He knew that the two Qu Cats were not simple. He wanted to encourage others to attack the two Qu Cats first, while he dealt with the troublemakers first. This way, he established his prestige and also took advantage of the opportunity to drive the cultivators in front of him. The fat middle-aged man who knew Cheng Tao the best laughed in his heart. Most people who didn't know the situation would think that Cheng Tao was an arrogant egomaniac who relied on his family's power. However, only the fat middle-aged man who had been with Cheng Tao for a long time knew that this was just a mask Cheng Tao wore. If Cheng Tao was really simple-minded, he wouldn't have been able to suppress his brothers until now and become his father's favorite son. He wouldn't have been able to maintain the most powerful force among the brothers.
"It's hard to say who is courting death." Luo Qian said tit for tat. The red-haired youth's Jade Serpent Bead was not simple, but he was not a pushover who could be bullied by others. If it was elsewhere, he might have some scruples. After all, the other side had more people, but now, because of the fight for the Gold Condensing Fruit, most people were on his side. Although these people would immediately abandon him when they saw that the situation was not good, as long as he did not fall into a disadvantageous position, these people would stand on his side for the Gold Condensing Fruit. After all, the red-haired youth had too many people. If they were not united, they would not get any benefits. At this time, Luo Qian felt the importance of Lu Xiaotian. If Lu Xiaotian was here, with Lu Xiaotian's ability, it should not be too difficult to take down the red-haired youth with thunderous means. At the same time, he could also intimidate the others and take most of the Gold Condensing Fruit. Unfortunately, Lu Xiaotian was not here now. Although he and Su Qing were powerful, there were many others, including the red-haired youth. More importantly, he and Su Qing did not have the ability to end the opponent's life in a few moves like Lu Xiaotian, especially that strange sound wave attack, which could not be blocked by many people.
While Su Qing and Luo Qian were secretly regretting, a dark-faced youth in the crowd smirked and glanced at Luo Qian, who was surrounded by thunder and lightning. It was Lu Xiaotian, who was disguised with the Thousand Illusion Mask. In fact, he arrived earlier than Su Qing and Luo Qian. After leaving the fog forbidden area, Lu Xiaotian, Xue Ling, and the thin old man separated and came directly here under the guidance of the primordial spirit in the Soul Confining Pearl.
The reason why they did not directly take the Gold Condensing Fruit was because the two Qu Cats were too powerful. Their bodies were as smooth as a mirror and seemed to be able to resist most of the attacks. Before they came, the first batch of more than a dozen cultivators in the late stage of Foundation Establishment swarmed up. The two Qu Cats were as fast as lightning, and there were not many cultivators who could keep up with the rhythm of the Qu Cats. Even if they were lucky enough to hit the Qu Cats, they seemed to be slid to the side and did not cause much damage to the Qu Cats at all. The two Qu Cats were like two golden lights shuttling back and forth in the crowd. Under the two claws, most of the cultivators who wanted to pick the Gold Condensing Fruit were directly killed. The remaining few were scared out of their wits. They turned around and wanted to escape, but they could not escape the pursuit of the two Qu Cats. Fortunately, the two Qu Cats were not interested in chasing too far, or they were worried that other people or monsters would take advantage of the situation to pick the Gold Condensing Fruit. So they swaggered back. If not, Lu Xiaotian would probably have to fight a hard battle with them. Maybe the cultivators who arrived later would take advantage of them.
As for those cultivators who had already died, the reason why they did not see their bones was that they were entangled by the green-gray vines under the Gold Condensing Fruit Tree and then sucked clean. Even their clothes were not left behind. As for the storage bags, they were also covered under the vines. Moreover, most of these people's attention was on the Gold Condensing Fruit. They were also arguing with other cultivators and were on guard against each other. To a certain extent, they ignored the danger in front of them. After all, in the eyes of these people, the two monsters guarding the Gold Condensing Fruit were only two mutated monsters. They were absolutely unable to resist dozens of people. In contrast, the people who should be most vigilant should be the people around them who had evil intentions.
