Ding Ning cursed the brainless fool in his heart. "The Fruit of Tao has not ripened yet, but they have already started fighting. Isn't it giving others a chance?"
The momentum of the fight between the two giant beasts was extremely terrifying. It was absolutely earth-shattering, and sand and stones were flying. Ding Ning, who was far away from the fight, felt his skin burning with pain when he was affected by the waves of the fight.
Just as Ding Ning was cursing the two of them to die together, a sudden change occurred.
When the other three corpses were watching with relish, a pair of bone beasts, who were entangled and fighting, suddenly launched an attack.
The bone tiger suddenly leaped up, and its huge bony palm slammed towards the head of the lizard zombie. The lizard zombie was caught off guard, and its head was smashed by the bone tiger's slap. However, these zombies could still survive even with only their bones left. It was evident how strong their vitality was.
On the other hand, the Bone Ape went straight for the Bone Bird. The Bone Bird's reaction was extremely quick. It tilted its body without any delay and dodged the sneak attack of the Bone Ape. It let out an angry screech and turned into several afterimages as it fought with the Bone Ape.
The decaying lizard did not die even though its head was smashed. It angrily whipped the bone tiger with its bone tail. Although it was petite, its strength could be imagined since it dared to come here and fight with other decaying corpses.
Although its head had been smashed into pieces, the strength of its tail bone was unbelievably great. With just one tail whip, the bone tiger was sent flying more than ten meters away, heavily crashing onto the ground.
The decaying lizard seemed to hate the bone tiger's sneak attack. After whipping the bone tiger away, it chased after it without stopping. Its tail was raised high like a whip, and it was about to continue whipping the bone tiger that had just climbed up.
Unexpectedly, the bone bear, who had been standing aside stupidly and seemed to be stunned by the sudden change, suddenly moved. It stretched out its two huge paws, grabbed the tip of the tail of the decaying lizard, grabbed the body of the decaying lizard with one hand, and pulled it hard.
Ding Ning swore that this was definitely the most violent aesthetic he had ever seen. The small decaying lizard was like a toy in the hands of the bone bear, and it was forcibly torn into two pieces.
Then, Bony Bear lifted the two halves of the lizard's corpse and smashed them on the ground. After a while, the lizard's corpse fell apart and became a pile of scattered bones.
But even so, the lizard corpse did not die. Its bones kept wriggling, trying to piece together. Its strong vitality made Ding Ning secretly speechless.
The Skeletal Tiger and the Skeletal Bear seemed to know that it was very difficult to kill the Carrion Lizard, but they had already achieved their goal. The Carrion Lizard Corpse was no longer qualified to compete for the Fruits of Way, so they no longer cared about it. Together, they rushed towards the Skeletal Bird that was fighting with the Skeletal Ape.
The bone bird emitted an unwilling cry when it saw the situation wasn't good, and it flapped its bone wings before flying towards the distance. It actually took the initiative to give up the fight for the Dao Fruit.
Ding Ning watched with great interest. The three beasts worked together to cripple one and drive the other away, but there was only one Fruit of the Way. How should the three beasts divide it?
The next moment, he saw what was called straightforwardness. The three beasts had just joined hands to eliminate two competitors, but they did not hesitate to turn their backs on them. The comrades who were fighting side by side just now became enemies at this moment. The three beasts instantly fought with each other.
The momentum of the fight between the two Skeletal Beasts was extremely terrible. The three Skeletal Beasts fought with their lives, and their terrible power could be imagined. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was earth-shattering and the sun and moon lost their light.
Anyway, they wouldn't die so easily, so they had no scruples in fighting. Ding Ning only felt that a leg bone flew up, a tailbone fell, and a foreclaw bone jumped out in front of him …
The three giant beasts fought with each other in the most primitive, barbaric, and violent way. Ding Ning could not tell which bone belonged to which, but he laughed secretly in his heart. "Fight, fight, fight. It's better to die together. There is a fisherman hiding under the ground."
In fact, Ding Ning really didn't want the disabled zombie to get the Fruit of the Way, because he knew that these human-shaped zombies were probably the Black Blood Plague Race that had invaded the Demon Kingdom back then, and these Skeletal Beasts should be the ancestors of the Demon Race who had sacrificed themselves to resist the invasion of the Alien Race.
However, he didn't know why these humans and Demons who should have died long ago lived in such an unconventional way, as if they were immortal.
Was it because they were Immortal Realm experts that they were immortal and could not enter reincarnation?
Ding Ning wanted to expose the disabled zombie's whereabouts, but he couldn't find a good way after thinking about it.
If he didn't expose the disabled zombie, he would expose his whereabouts. That would be terrible. He wasn't an immortal existence, and he couldn't withstand the violent ravages of these Skeletal Beasts.
He glanced at the ground unwillingly, and his heart suddenly thumped. The number of bones of the Skeletal Lizard Beast seemed to be wrong. It seemed to be missing quite a few pieces.
Although the Skeletal Lizard Beast didn't die, its bones were scattered, and it seemed to have lost its ability to speak. Even its thinking had become slow. It didn't realize that its bone parts had been stolen, and it was still desperately trying to put them together.
Ding Ning touched his chin thoughtfully. Could it be that the disabled zombie stole the bones of the Skeletal Lizard Beast to put together a pair of legs for itself? That didn't make sense. They weren't the same race.
But in this Sacred Mountain, it was hard to say anything. Even the dead could live, so it wasn't impossible to use beast bones to put together a pair of human legs.
No, he almost couldn't escape from the legless zombie. If he let it use two legs to come out, would he still have a chance to live?
Ding Ning's eyes kept turning, and he thought hard about how to let the three stupid beasts discover the existence of the disabled zombie.
Got it!
Ding Ning's eyes suddenly brightened, and he quickly took out an immortal human leg bone and threw it to the hiding place of the zombie.
That immortal aura exuded a terrifying pressure, and instantly attracted the attention of the three bone beasts. They watched the immortal leg bone suddenly disappear into the ground, and immediately realized that there were still enemies hiding underground. They pounced on the ground like hungry dogs, and pulled out the disabled rotten corpses one by one.
The crippled zombie had a dumbfounded look on his face. He was also satisfied with stealing leg bones. While the lizard was still in a daze, he only cared about stealing leg bones. When he suddenly discovered a human leg bone, he didn't think twice and took it. However, he didn't expect to be discovered by the three skeletal beasts.
Until now, he suddenly realized that except for himself, there were all bone beasts here. Where did the human leg bone come from? Could it be the damn little bug from before?
Thinking of this, the crippled rotten corpse was burning with rage. He was just about to shout that there was still a small worm waiting to reap the benefits when the three-headed bone beast acted as if it had seen its father's murderer and started to beat it violently like a storm.
The disabled zombie swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. He covered his head with his hands and rolled on the ground, trying to find a chance to speak and expose Ding Ning's existence.
Although the bone beasts had died long ago, and their brains were not very bright, they still had an instinctive hatred and disgust for the invaders of the Black Blood Plague Tribe. It was an enmity that was engraved in their bones, and they did not give him any chance to breathe. Their wild attacks broke the disabled zombie apart, and he ended up in the same state as the Skeletal Lizard Beast.
The disabled zombie felt bitter in his heart. These guys did not even give him a chance to speak. How f * cking cruel.
Ding Ning beamed with joy. This was so f * cking satisfying. It was a pity that he could not kill this thing, otherwise it would be perfect.
No, it was not that he could not kill it, but that the bone beasts could not kill it. There were very few things that could kill it, but it did not mean that they did not exist.
For example, the Heavenly Annihilation had shattered the disabled zombie's finger, causing it to be missing two finger bones. This meant that the Divine Annihilation Talisman could completely kill it.
There was also … the spatial fissure within a hundred meters of the Dao Tree!
The disabled zombie was so afraid of the Dao Tree, which meant that the spatial fissure was a great threat to it, and probably had the ability to kill it.
Unfortunately, whether he used the Heavenly Annihilation or threw the disabled zombie within a hundred meters of the Dao Tree, he would still alarm the three bone beasts. This made him feel deeply regretful, and he could only hope that the three bone beasts would fight to the death and turn into scattered bones.
After the three bone beasts dismantled the disabled zombie, they paid no more attention to it, and once again began the final battle.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
An earth-shattering battle began once more.
Ding Ning's face was full of expectation as he watched the three behemoths fight fiercely with no regard for their own safety. He secretly cheered them on in his heart. "Harder, harder …"
Poof!
There was an almost imperceptible sound, and a dazzling golden light flashed in front of Ding Ning. It was so piercing that his eyes were burning with pain, and he could not look straight at it. He hurriedly closed his eyes, but he could smell a strange fragrance that made all the pores on his body relax.
The Dao Fruit had ripened!
This thought flashed through Ding Ning's mind. He closed his eyes and opened the Heavenly Eye, looking at the Dao Tree through the dazzling golden light.
He saw that the previously crystal-clear emerald fruit was now completely golden, emitting a golden glow. Wisps of Dao Rhythm spread like clouds.
The Dao Tree, which had been full of the aura of death, seemed to have been stripped of all its vitality. It was completely withered and silent, and even the terrifying spatial fissure around it had all disappeared.
The Dao Fruit emitted a dazzling golden glow, and even the bone beasts could not look straight at it, so they did not try to snatch it.
Seeing that the area covered by the golden light was rapidly shrinking, Ding Ning knew that the Dao Fruit was gathering its essence. The moment the golden glow completely converged would be the moment when the Dao Fruit was completely ripe.
Ding Ning's eyes shone brightly, but he was calculating quickly in his mind. The time that the golden light of the Fruit of the Way converged was very short, less than a second. Adding the time that the bone beast needed to adapt to the disappearance of the golden light, it would take about one to two seconds.
When the golden light completely converged, the bone beasts would immediately try to snatch the Dao Fruit. At that time, no matter how the three bone beasts fought, they would perish together, and the chance of him getting a great bargain would be almost zero.
In other words, his only chance to obtain the Dao Fruit was in that almost negligible two to three seconds. If he missed it, he would not have any chance of snatching the food from the bone beasts' jaws.
To snatch it or not?
Ding Ning had already made up his mind to give up, but now he was tempted.
Three seconds was very short for ordinary people, but for him, who had the extreme speed of the Golden Roc, it was enough time.
Although he was 200 meters away from the Dao Tree, it would not even take a second for him to rush to the Dao Tree and collect the Dao Fruit.
One second to pick the Dao Fruit, one second to escape back to the forest swamp shrouded by the formation patterns, and one second to escape. The probability of success was about 70%.
Although this probability was already very high for Ding Ning, if he failed, the probability of him being torn to pieces by the bone beasts was almost 100%.
Was it worth risking his life for a Dao Fruit?
Ding Ning was a little conflicted, but when he saw the mouth-watering golden Dao Fruit through his Third Eye, his expression gradually became determined.
He was determined to get the Dao Fruit.
It was not that he was greedy, nor was it that this Dao Fruit would bring him so much help that he could reach the sky in one step.
Instead, he felt that the cultivation of a martial artist was in defiance of the natural order. If he wanted to obtain opportunities, he had to rely on himself to fight for them.
If he saw the opportunity right in front of him but gave it up because he was afraid of death, then he would use the same reason to give up a second time and a third time …
Slowly, he would lose all his courage and boldness, lose his firm heart of martial arts, and finally become a coward who was greedy for life and afraid of death, doing things in a timid manner.
