Yang Wu brought Little Nannan into the gourd tree. They weren't attacked by the tree vines.
All the living beings shut their mouths.
Their eyes were wide open, unable to believe what they just saw.
Why were the others killed when they entered the tree, but not the two of them?
"Could it be that the gourd tree is willing to let us get close to it?" One of the living beings murmured to himself. He followed Yang Wu's example and carefully stepped into the tree's domain.
* Swoosh! *
In an instant, dozens of vines turned into sharp arrows and shot towards the living being.
The living being was shocked. He wanted to retreat quickly, but his feet were entangled by the vines. He couldn't escape.
"No!"
The living being was pierced by the vines and died on the spot.
His death awakened many of the living beings. They didn't know what to say when they saw the scene.
Someone cursed, "Motherf * cker! Why are they fine? Could it be that they have been recognized by the gourd tree?"
"We are all humans. Why is there such a huge difference in treatment?" A human genius lamented.
The other living beings weren't disturbed. They continued to communicate with the gourd tree. This was the only way for them to obtain the gourd.
Yang Wu also saw the living being that was killed not far away. His hair stood on end. That was a high grade Minor Saint, but he was killed in an instant. The gourd tree's level was too high. It wasn't something they could fight against.
"This must be a saint tree." Yang Wu sighed in his heart.
Yang Wu walked forward step by step. He didn't dare to relax for a moment. Little Nannan didn't show any signs of nervousness. Her gaze was fixed on the gourd that was emitting ice crystals. She smiled and said, "Brother Gourd, I'm coming."
All of a sudden, the ice gourd on the tree shook a little. The next moment, it fell from the tree and flew towards little Nan Nan.
In the blink of an eye, the ice gourd appeared in Little Nannan's hand. She smiled happily and hugged it in her arms.
Yang Wu's eyes widened. He exclaimed in his heart, "The innate supreme treasure is in our hands just like that?"
The other creatures who saw this thought the same. They wanted to open their mouths and curse.
They had racked their brains to obtain the Innate Artifact, but this little girl had obtained it with just a few words. Could it be a secret signal?
"I'm here, Calabash Brothers," Yang Wu mimicked Little Nannan and looked at the other two calabashes.
However, the two gourds were still hanging on the tree without any movement.
At this moment, there was a commotion behind him. "Calabash Brothers, I'm coming … Calabash Brothers, I'm coming …"
These creatures were the same as Yang Wu. They all thought it was a secret signal, but no matter how much they shouted, it was useless.
Suddenly, the other two hanging gourds also moved.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
A dark golden light shone in the sky and quickly swept in the direction of Xie Fuzi.
At the same time, a purple light shot towards Purple Yu Yue like a meteor.
The connate gourds had all chosen their masters.
The stars shifted in the sky and the creatures who'd been in front of the gourd tree were transported out of this world. They returned to the outside of the Skyfall Mountain Range, and the cracked iceberg gradually healed.
All of the living beings had come out, even the corpses of dead living beings had appeared outside.
Everyone blinked at first, but quickly came to their senses.
"The humans have taken the connate gourds!" one of the ice men cried out.
The next moment, the entire place erupted into chaos.
All three connate gourds had fallen into the hands of the humans. The Ice Tribe wouldn't let this go, and the other geniuses who didn't get their hands on the gourds would go crazy.
Everyone quickly searched for the three who'd taken the gourds — Little Nannan, Xie Fuzi, and Purple Yu Yue.
Xie Fuzi was the fastest to slip away. He didn't care about his fellow disciples at all and disappeared from the world as a shadow.
Tian Fozi had already locked onto him. Tian Fozi frowned. "Buddhist items should be safeguarded by the Tianli Temple."
Tian Fozi mounted his golden lion and chased after Xie Fuzi.
The other monks followed suit. Even a true Buddha would be tempted by a connate peerless treasure, to say nothing of the likes of them.
There were also some Outsiders who chased after them. They definitely weren't willing to return empty-handed.
In another direction, Purple Yu Yue was also quickly leaving under the escort of the Purple Firmament Palace.
In their eyes, obtaining the connate gourd was already a great accomplishment. As for the ethereal ruins of the heavenly palace, they didn't care at all.
"Purple Fairy, can you let me take a look at the connate gourd?" the young Temple King of the Longevity Palace asked Purple Yu Yue quietly.
Zhou Zhixuan, the holy girl of Emei Temple, shouted, "Leave the connate treasure behind. The worthy can have it."
A few other major factions also locked onto Purple Yu Yue and the Purple Firmament Palace.
Lei Xuyang stood out and shouted, "This is something that my Junior Sister obtained. Could it be that you all still want to snatch it?"
"We found it together. Of course we'll take it out and study it together." Another genius spoke up.
"That's right. We don't want the gourd, but let us take a look." Someone else said.
"Anyone who dares to touch it will be an enemy of the Purple Firmament Palace." Someone from the Purple Firmament Palace shouted.
"Who cares about the Purple Firmament Palace? That belongs to the Iceman Tribe. Leave it behind." Someone from the Iceman Tribe shouted. Many members of the Iceman Tribe took the initiative to attack the Purple Firmament Palace.
At the same time, others began to fish in troubled waters. They wanted to take the gourd from Purple Yu Yue.
Purple Yu Yue was no fool. She and the rest of the Purple Firmament Palace began to break out of the encirclement.
Xie Fuzi and Purple Yu Yue were both taken care of, but not as much as Little Nannan.
She was just a little girl. How could she have gotten a gourd?
"Little girl, hand over the gourd or I'll eat you." A transformed snow leopard glared at Little Nannan.
A snow wolf shouted, "Hand over the gourd and we'll let you live."
Some geniuses did not waste time talking. They rushed towards Yang Wu, wanting to snatch the gourd from Yang Wu's mouth.
Once someone moved, the others did not waste time talking. They all chose to attack Yang Wu and Little Nannan.
In their eyes, Yang Wu was much easier to deal with than Xie Fuzi and Purple Yu Yue.
After all, no matter how strong Yang Wu was, he was only one person. With so many people here, how could they not be able to deal with him?
Yang Wu realized the situation was not good. He did not want to get entangled with these people. While they were targeting him, he tore open an imperial edict and used its power to leave.
Whoosh!
The power of the imperial edict was not something anyone could block. Yang Wu was wrapped in holy power and disappeared.
Just when Yang Wu thought they were out of danger, he realized the imperial edict had only allowed him and Little Nannan to escape three miles away. Anyone who was a Small Saint could easily sense them.
A geniuses with clairvoyance immediately saw Yang Wu. They pointed in a direction and shouted, "They ran that way."
"Holy Mountain has a holy power seal. They can't escape," an iceman shouted.
And so, a large group of spirit creatures chased after Yang Wu and Little Nannan.
Yang Wu frowned and ran as fast as he could. He wanted to get rid of his pursuers in the mountains and then find a way to find the Heavenly Palace ruins.
"Big Brother, they're all bad people," Little Nannan said angrily in Yang Wu's arms.
"Yes, they are indeed bad people." Yang Wu nodded.
Yang Wu could not fly at high speed here. He could only run with Wind God's Legs. He felt he was very fast. Even a half-saint might not be able to catch up with him.
Unfortunately, he still underestimated the Ice Race's ability here. Roars could be heard all over the place.
Roar!
Snow wolves, snow leopards, and ice bears all roared. This was their signal to send out orders.
Most of the creatures in the Skyfield Mountains were from the Ice Race. When the signal was sent out, a large number of snow wolves, snow leopards, and ice bears rushed out from different directions. They surrounded Yang Wu, Xie Fuzi, and Yu Yue.
The Ice Race would not allow their connate items to be taken away by humans.
Yang Wu realized the situation was bad. He had to think of a way to get out of this predicament. He kept thinking about how to deal with it.
"Let's go down first." Yang Wu made up his mind.
Only by going down the mountain and settling Little Nannan down and changing his appearance would he have a chance to find the Heavenly Palace ruins. It was difficult to continue using his current appearance.
The safest way was to go down the mountain.
But before he could go down, a wave of Ice Race spirit creatures appeared around him. They couldn't catch Yang Wu's figure. They didn't expect to keep Yang Wu here. They only hoped to stop Yang Wu's footsteps.
Streams of ice power shot out from their mouths, and many attacks fell on Yang Wu's position.
Yang Wu didn't tangle with them. Their attacks couldn't touch him at all. He stepped over their heads.
After Yang Wu got rid of a few waves of attacks, a peak Minor Saint snow wolf rushed out from a snowy mountain. It spat out an ice sword and turned into a rainbow that pierced towards Yang Wu.
Snow Wolf Sword!
The snow wolf was lying in ambush. Even a half-step Saint would fall for it if they didn't pay attention.
Yang Wu's sensing ability had already been activated to the maximum. When the Snow Wolf Sword fell, he lifted his leg and kicked the Snow Wolf Sword, forcibly kicking it away. He still did not want to stay and wanted to continue running. The Snow Wolf roared, "You can't escape, Ice Wall Blockade!"
In the next moment, the snow wolf unleashed its innate power of ice and snow. White snow fluttered in the air and quickly condensed into an ice wall in front of Yang Wu. It didn't give Yang Wu a chance to move forward.
The snow wolf only wanted to stop Yang Wu.
Yang Wu replied with killing intent, "A mere beast dares to stop me!"
Ice Blade Wing Assassination!
