The golden light in the sky quickly gathered and shrank to the size of a football in the blink of an eye. It was still shrinking. The Fruit of Way was about to ripen.
Ding Ning was like a cheetah hunting its prey. His muscles tightened and he was ready to attack. His eyes flashed with a terrifying light.
Although the three bone beasts could not see, they were on guard against each other and were ready to fight for the Fruit of Way at any time.
Bang bang … Bang bang … Bang bang …
Ding Ning was highly concentrated and his heartbeat began to accelerate uncontrollably.
At this tense moment, no one noticed that Bone Ape's head tilted imperceptibly. It seemed to be listening to something. A human-like suspicion flashed across its face. Then, it quietly took a small step back.
There was a soft sound!
The golden light in the sky gathered in the Fruit of Way like a whale sucking in water. The Tree of Way instantly withered and turned into ashes. The strange fragrance also disappeared with the dissipation of the golden light.
The Fruit of Way was ripe!
Three terrifying bone claws that covered the sky grabbed the golden Fruit of Way without hesitation. However, Bone Tiger and Bone Bear were keenly aware that Bone Ape's speed seemed to be a little slower.
They were not surprised. Instead, they were happy. The strength of the three beasts was equal. If Bone Ape's speed was slower, it meant that they had a higher chance of getting the Fruit of Way.
Bone Tiger and Bone Bear's bone claws kept colliding in the air, creating layers of terrible space ripples. They restrained each other and did not give way to each other. They brazenly grabbed the Fruit of Way.
A figure as fast as lightning suddenly appeared on the illusory Tree of Way at an incredible speed. It grabbed the Fruit of Way and retreated. The bone claws of the two beasts missed.
Roar!
Bone Tiger and Bone Bear roared angrily at the same time. They did not expect that an ant would steal the Fruit of Way when they were about to get it.
However, the figure grasped the timing very well. They were determined to get it and did not leave any leeway. At this moment, they had just used their old strength and had not yet used their new strength. They could only watch the figure retreat to the forbidden area, but it was too late to stop it.
Just as they were burning with anger but could only helplessly watch the damned little insect escape, the bone ape's giant claw that was a bit slower suddenly changed direction. A sinister smile appeared on its face as it grabbed the insect's figure and fiercely squeezed it as if it had already expected it.
Ah!
The figure let out a blood-curdling scream, and was crushed by the terrifying beast's claw. The golden fruit flew out of his hand and into a forbidden area.
The Bone Ape's sinister smile froze on its face. Its beast claw grabbed at the Dao Fruit at a terrifying speed.
Bone Tiger and Bone Bear heaved a sigh of relief at the same time. They still had a chance if the Fruit of Way fell into the hands of Bone Ape. It was better than falling into the forbidden area.
Just when the Bone Ape was about to grab the Tao Fruit, a strange change occurred. A ghostly figure suddenly appeared out of thin air and grabbed the Tao Fruit. Then, the figure shot into the forbidden area like an arrow leaving the bow.
Roar!
The skeletal ape was enraged. Its terrifying beast claw suddenly sped up and grabbed the figure. It crushed it into pieces without any suspense.
However, before the figure was crushed to pieces, he used the same trick and threw the Dao fruit into the forbidden area.
Roar!
The three bone beasts were infuriated, and their huge bony claws grabbed at the Dao Fruit that was about to escape into the forbidden area.
Golden light flickered. Bone Tiger was the closest to the Dao Fruit, so he was the fastest. He grabbed the Dao Fruit in his hand before it fell into the forbidden area. Then, he retreated without hesitation. He turned around and fled far away.
Bone Bear and Bone Ape were not willing to let the Dao Fruit be taken by Bone Tiger. They roared and chased after Bone Tiger. They disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Ding Ning suddenly appeared with a pale face. He reached out to collect the scattered bones of the lizard corpse and the human-shaped corpse on the ground. Then, he turned around and entered the forbidden area again. He escaped along the safe route that he had deduced countless times in his mind without hesitation.
He did not know whether it was worth it to pay the price of the destruction of his two Martial Souls and to use the Substitution Technique to snatch the Dao Fruit at the critical moment. However, he did not have time to consider these things. He immediately fled as far as he could.
Because he knew that the Verdant Fruit wrapped in a layer of metal could not deceive the three bone beasts for long. They would soon return. Even if they did not dare to chase him deep into the forbidden area, as long as they bombarded the formation patterns in a rage, the formation near the forbidden area would be activated. He, who was in the chaotic formation, would lose a layer of skin even if he did not die.
Sure enough, after only a dozen minutes, Ding Ning heard the furious roars of the three-headed bone beasts and the sound of them bombarding the tactical matrix. The tactical lines behind him began to flicker, and the destructive aura continued to spread wildly in all directions.
Ding Ning covered himself with Brother Human Skin, lowered his head, and ran wildly. He complained in his heart.
This chaotic formation was too terrifying. The dense formations overlapped with each other in a complicated way. If one part was moved, the whole body would be affected. The flickering formation patterns that were constantly activated were getting closer and closer like the King of Hell. Even if he was a Divine Array Master, even if he had Brother Human Skin to protect him, he did not have any confidence that he could survive in this terrifying chaotic formation.
Roar!
Roar!
Roar!
The whole Holy Mountain was alarmed, and the angry and uneasy roars of the terrifying existences came from all directions.
For many years, the Restriction Formation of the Holy Mountain had not been activated. Who on earth dared to bombard the Forbidden Area?
The three bone beasts impulsively bombarded the Forbidden Area to vent their anger. At this moment, seeing that they had made such a big mess, they did not dare to stay any longer. They quickly fled far away and returned to their respective territories. They pretended to know nothing, and even pretended to roar angrily.
Puff!
Ding Ning's face was pale, and he was blasted forward again by the power of the activated formation patterns behind him. Before he landed on the ground, blood was spurting out of his mouth like it was free.
It was over. Ding Ning was full of despair. He never thought that the attack of the bone beasts would trigger the Restriction Formation of the whole Holy Mountain. Even if he had Brother Human Skin to protect him, he would definitely not be able to withstand the destructive bombardment of this terrifying Restriction Formation.
He was only affected by the successive activation of the formation patterns at the edge of the Restriction Formation, and his internal organs were already damaged and he almost died. If he fell into the center of the Restriction Formation, the result could be imagined.
The most terrible thing was that he was constantly bombarded by the Restriction Formation, and his whole body was constantly changing directions like a man flying in the air. He had long lost his direction, and could not find the safe path in his memory.
Ding Ning did not know how long he had been bombarded by the power of the constantly activated formation patterns, and he could not remember how many times he had been bombarded. Just when his body was cracking, and his blood stained the sky, he felt that he would definitely die this time.
He fell heavily to the ground.
His ears suddenly became quiet. There was no fluctuation of the formation, and there was no terrifying roar of the rotten corpses. It was as if he had entered an independent space.
This was a space where not even a blade of grass grew, and everywhere was filled with gray fog. The visibility was extremely low, and it looked extremely desolate and dead.
Ding Ning was lying on the ground with blood all over his body, and his eyelids were so heavy that he could not open them even if he wanted to. His soul had also become dim, and he could not even move a finger.
This time, his injuries were too serious, second only to the time when the leopard girl self-destructed. Ding Ning did not have time to care about where he was at the moment, nor did he have time to care about whether there was any danger around him. He frantically circulated the Starry Sky Breathing Technique to heal his injuries.
However, he had forgotten that this was the Sacred Mountain. The sky was gray, and there was no sun, moon, or stars to speak of. After circulating for a long time, there was no effect at all.
The most terrible thing was that there was not even a trace of Spiritual Qi here, making him like a fish that had jumped onto the shore and was about to die of thirst.
His brain was muddled, causing his reaction to be several beats slower than usual. After a long time, he realized that the Starry Sky Breathing Technique did not bring him any help.
If the Starry Sky Breathing Technique did not work, then he would use the All Living Things Breathing Technique. Ding Ning laughed bitterly, and secretly scolded himself for being stupid. This was the Sacred Mountain, and it was the Demon Kingdom. Naturally, the All Living Things Breathing Technique was more effective.
Breathe … breathe … breathe …
Gradually, Ding Ning's breathing entered a strange rhythm. However, he did not know what kind of damned place this was. It was like a vacuum world, and he could not absorb any energy at all.
However, his injuries were too serious, and his body's self-protection program was activated. His consciousness had already fallen into a coma, and he was completely relying on his instincts to circulate the All Living Things Breathing Technique.
Time passed minute by minute. If not for the slight rise and fall of his chest, he would look like a dead man.
Tap tap … Tap tap …
Suddenly, a series of light footsteps rang out, and a stooped figure hobbled through the gray fog, approaching from afar.
That figure was very old, and even walking seemed to be extremely strenuous. His speed was so slow that it made one's hair stand on end, but he was wearing an extremely eye-catching snow-white robe.
If Ding Ning could see this old figure at this moment, he would definitely be shocked. This old man was the Fox Clan's Great Shaman, and he did not know why he would appear here.
The Great Shaman walked alone, trembling as he walked to Ding Ning's side. His muddy old eyes flickered with a strange light as he quietly looked at Ding Ning, who was like a dead man. His eyes flickered, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Tap tap!
Another series of footsteps rang out, and an unhurried voice sounded, "Ming, what are you planning? Why did you lure this young man here? "
Along with the voice, a tall and burly middle-aged man walked out of the gray fog. He wore a crown on his head, and his eyes were like stars. He stared unblinkingly at the Great Shaman, with a strong sense of vigilance and scrutiny.
"Ji, I know that you have always been distrustful of me, and feel that I want to merge the Three Realms' Source. Similarly, I do not trust you, so what I am planning has nothing to do with you."
The Great Shaman, who was called Ming, did not seem surprised at Ji's appearance, and spoke indifferently without even lifting his eyelids.
"Hmph! Don't lie in front of an honest person. Between you and Hao, one must be the mastermind behind the scenes, and I feel that you are the most suspicious. You are always sneaking around, and it is obvious that you have bad intentions. Since you are not willing to tell me, then I will not let you get what you want to do. "
Ji clasped his hands behind his back, and a terrifying aura soared into the sky, and a powerful pressure swept through the world.
"Ji, even your main body may not be able to do anything to me, and now you think you can stop my plan with a mere Divine Soul Clone?"
Ming's tone was calm, but the aura around him suddenly changed, and his entire person underwent a tremendous change.
His old body suddenly straightened, and the wrinkles on his tangerine-peel-like face began to stretch out at a speed visible to the naked eye. In an instant, he turned into an unruly middle-aged man with smooth skin. His entire body rippled with a terrifying and domineering aura, and he no longer looked like the old man who struggled to even walk.
Ming's aura was earth-shaking, and it easily counteracted Ji's terrifying pressure. After all, he was his main body, and Ji was just a Divine Soul Clone.
"What if I am included?"
A chuckle broke the balance of the scene, and a towering figure wearing a crown and an imperial robe suddenly appeared, as if he had passed through the river of time.
"It will not be enough even if you are included."
Ming's expression did not change, and he said indifferently, "You want to fight against my main body with just two clones? You are underestimating me, the Emperor of the Underworld."
"Ming, I know that you want to lure our main bodies here to complete your plot. Do you think we will fall for it?"
The towering figure wearing the crown said with a chuckle, as if he had seen through everything.
