Chapter 152: Spirit Thief (Subscription Requested)

"The third-order high-grade spiritual fruit [Qionghua Biyue Fruit], taking one can be worth ten years of penance for monks in the late stage of foundation building, each monk can only take one in his life, and its fruit trees often grow on the bank of the cold pond and secluded springs, and it can only bear fruit once in a hundred years!"

In the deep and quiet mountain forest, Zhou Yang stood on a towering ancient tree, his eyes blazing at a cold waterhole thousands of kilometers ahead, to be precise, a turquoise fruit tree about one zhang high, like a tomato tree, and his eyes did not blink.

When he passed through this kind of spiritual mountain, he followed the spiritual energy fluctuations to the spiritual vein eye of the spiritual mountain as usual, and then he saw the cold pool with an area of less than one square meter, and the "Qionghua Biyue Fruit" tree growing on the edge of the cold pool.

Just like what he said to himself just now, the "Qionghua Biyue Fruit" is a rare spiritual fruit that can be directly taken to refine and increase the cultivation of immortal cultivators without going through the refining of alchemists.

This kind of rare spirit fruit rarely appears in the immortal cultivation world, and generally the sect families that own this kind of fruit tree will be able to digest all the output of their power, and they will not let it flow out at all.

At the same time, this rare spirit fruit is also difficult to transplant and survive, and the fruit production period is generally extremely long, only those sect families with a long tradition will plant this spirit fruit to benefit future generations.

The "Qionghua Biyue Fruit" tree in Zhou Yang's sight now still has two fruits carved from high-grade jasper hanging on it, which is why he stopped here.

What a rare opportunity!

A "Qionghua Biyue Fruit" can increase the cultivation of ten years for a monk in the late stage of foundation building, if he takes it, as long as his body can support the medicinal power, there is almost no problem in directly improving his cultivation to the next level.

Moreover, if the remaining "Qionghua Biyue Fruit" was picked and taken away, whether it was sold in the Liuyun Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm, or given to the old patriarch Zhou Minghan after returning to the family, it would be an excellent thing.

But it's not easy to do.

Zhou Yang's powerful divine sense made him feel that there was a powerful demon beast hidden in that seemingly small cold pool, and the strength of that demon beast would definitely not be worse than the water demon who was killed by Chen Ping'an at the beginning.

Zhou Yang didn't know why this powerful demon beast was not summoned by the sound of the "Beast King's Horn", but he knew that if he wanted to pick the "Qionghua Biyue Fruit", it would definitely attract the crazy attack of the demon beast.

Opportunities and risks coexist, and it is up to him how to choose.

And he thought about it, and after hesitating for a long time, he decided to give it a go.

With his strength and means, even if he fails, it should not be difficult to save his life.

After making a decision like this, he took out half of the "Hidden Spirit Incense" that Cao Wenjin gave him to save his life before leaving, and lit it and inserted it on his waist.

Then he took out the "Dust Bead" magic weapon that the old patriarch Zhou Minghan had refined with the materials on the water demon's body, and urged the magic weapon to release a layer of light blue spiritual light to wrap his whole body.

With such a two-pronged approach, not only were the mana fluctuations emanating from his body covered by the "Hidden Spirit Incense", but even his body was hidden at the level of divine sense.

Quietly, Zhou Yang, who had made all the preparations, slowly approached Hantan.

Two thousand meters!

A thousand meters!

Five hundred meters!

After entering the range of five hundred meters, Zhou Yang deliberately stopped for a moment, according to the previous experiment on the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, this distance was enough for the guarded late-stage foundation building monks to discover the abnormality.

However, as far as he could see, the surface of the cold pool was still calm, and nothing unusual happened.

This relieved him and continued to move slowly.

In this way, until there were still thirty meters away from the "Qionghua Biyue Fruit" tree on the edge of Hantan, Zhou Yang stopped again.

At this distance, he still didn't feel any change in the aura in the cold pool, but he was no longer ready to move on.

Because this distance was enough for him to pick the spirit fruit by hand.

Brush!

Seeing a flash of sword light, the two spirit fruits hanging on the "Qionghua Biyue Fruit" tree fell in response, and then were collected into the storage bag by Zhou Yang's aerial camera.

At the same time, he didn't even want the second-order top-grade flying sword that cut off the spirit fruit, and directly flicked his sleeves and released the "Red Xuanjin Light Sword" imperial sword and flew out of the mountain.

Wail!

The surface of the cold pool, which had been unrippling, suddenly swelled violently like boiling water, and out of it came a giant blue frog the size of a calf, and as soon as the blue giant frog emerged, it opened its mouth wide enough to swallow a human child, and let out a frog cry full of anger.

In the sound of the frog's chirping, a water-blue ice light suddenly shot out from the giant frog's mouth, and quickly caught up with Zhou Yang, who had already flown out hundreds of meters like a blue lightning.

However, what made the blue giant frog puzzled and angry was that the "fruit thief" was obviously hit by its magic powers, but it was not like those flying monsters who wanted to steal the fruit in the past, and was directly frozen in ice and fell to death.

Instead, after a slight pause in the sword light, it continued to fly again, and soon disappeared from its sight, making it impossible to chase it if it wanted to.

Although it is an amphibious monster, the water is its home field, and only in this cold pool, with the help of the cold air in the cold pool, can it resist the call of that strange sound.

So it looked at the "Qionghua Biyue Fruit" tree that had only two branches cut off on the edge of the cold pool, and let out a low cry of unwillingness, and finally sank into the cold pool and continued to sleep.

In the final analysis, although the "Qionghua Biyue Fruit" is precious, whether it is an immortal cultivator or a demon beast, only the first one in his life has an effect.

The blue giant frog has been guarding the fruit tree for decades, and has taken more than one before, knowing that taking more spirit fruits will have no effect, so he will keep the two spirit fruits on the tree as bait to attract other demon beasts to come over and be devoured and eaten by himself.

Now the spirit fruit used as bait has been stolen, and although it is angry, it is not particularly concerned that it must be recovered.

On the other side, after Zhou Yang took the adventure of flying the sword for twenty or thirty miles, he saw that the blue giant frog did not chase after him, and he quickly dropped his sword light and landed on the ground.

Edgeworth's flight to escape was a last resort just now, and now that it has been confirmed that he has escaped, he naturally won't do this kind of dancing on the tip of the knife again.

"Huh, it's really dangerous! Fortunately, I have the Qianyang Treasure Body, and the practice is the "Qianyang Immortal Sutra" of the Extreme Yang Zhiyang, otherwise I would really be planted on that ice light today!"

On the ground, Zhou Yang dropped his sword light and wiped the water stains on his head with a wave of his sleeve, and his face was full of fear.

The blue ice light that spewed out from the mouth of the blue giant frog before was really fast and ruthless, and when he was just hit by the ice light, he was indeed almost frozen by the ice and his body fell off the flying sword.

Fortunately, after he found out that something was wrong, even if he used all his strength to urge the mana to resist the erosion of the extremely cold power, he finally dispelled the extremely cold power and narrowly survived the catastrophe.

At this time, after he landed safely, he immediately picked off the two "Qionghua Biyue Fruits" that were still hanging on the branches from the storage bag, kept them in a jade box, and put them back into the storage bag where he stored his valuables.

A spirit fruit like the "Qionghua Biyue Fruit", which can greatly increase the mana cultivation of an immortal cultivator, needs to find a safe and quiet place to take it, and then spend at least a few months slowly refining the spiritual power in the spirit fruit, and the place where he is now obviously does not meet this condition.

After putting away the spirit fruit, Zhou Yang readjusted his direction, and continued to move in the direction where the Liuyun Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm was located.

In the next period of time, although Zhou Yang had tried his best to be careful, because he was getting closer and closer to the Liuyun Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm, he was inevitably discovered by some demon beasts that were gathering.

He killed some low-level demon beasts who found him on the spot, but the roar of these demon beasts before they died still attracted the inspection of other demon beasts in the vicinity, and finally caused him to take his sword into the air and quickly flee from the place.

However, although he was able to escape the pursuit of most demon beasts when he ascended into the air, it was also easier to expose his existence and attract more demon beasts to pursue.

In the end, Zhou Yang was pursued by several third-order flying demon beasts, and was forced to perform the "Blood Escape Technique" again to escape from the encirclement.

Today, using Zhou Yang's cultivation of the fourth layer of the foundation to perform the "Blood Escape Technique" again will no longer be like when the foundation was built and the first layer of cultivation will be consumed so much that it will affect future cultivation.

After he performed a "Blood Escape Technique", although his face also turned the same miserable white as when a normal person lost too much blood, he could barely maintain the strength to move and continue to hurry.

Moreover, this time, he specially brought the third-order elixir "Jade Essence Pill" that he had specially purchased from the ancestor of the Chen family before leaving to replenish the essence blood.

With this kind of elixir that specializes in making up for the essence blood of monks in the foundation building period to help restore the lost essence blood, he can still afford to use a "blood escape technique".

On this day, Zhou Yang, who had been walking between the mountains and mountains, suddenly stopped outside a thousand-zhang peak.

Since entering this beast tide outbreak area, there have been very few thousand-zhang peaks like this in front of him, and Zhou Yang has seen less than three such thousand-zhang peaks in the past month or so, each of which is a fourth-order spiritual mountain.

Fourth-order spirit mountains are all entrenched in fourth-order demon beasts, and fourth-order demon beasts are not affected by the "Beast King's Horn", so after he saw those thousand-zhang peaks from a distance a few times before, he took a detour to avoid them from a long distance.

But this time, this fourth-order spiritual mountain in front of him, he couldn't avoid it.

Because if he made another detour, he would have wasted at least a day, and every day he spent in this area now, the danger of hitting the beast tide was even greater.

Now he can still bounce in this area, because ninety percent of the demon beasts have gone to gather somewhere, once the assembled demon beast group is really led by high-level demon beasts to disperse and attack, as Cao Wenjin said, the demon beast group in the depths of the Broken Cloud Mountain Range in the rear will immediately fill the gap in this area.

At that time, if he stayed in this area again, there would really be a tiger in front of him and a wolf in the back, and it would be difficult to think about not dying.

"I can only fight for it! Maybe I'm lucky, and the fourth-order demon beasts on this Spirit Mountain have also been requisitioned and transferred?"

His eyes flickered as he looked at the thousand-foot peak in front of him, and the look in his eyes gradually became firm.

There is a risk in moving forward, and there is also a risk in detouring, so he can only choose to move forward!
