Chapter 453: Six Beasts Siege!
“Naturally, if you doubt me, I can offer you a Dark Spirit Fruit right away,” Su Yi responded with generosity.
“The Dark Spirit Fruit Tree is far from an ordinary plant. Even with a suitable land, it’s not easy to transplant and sustain it. This is an extremely precious treasure. Should it be harmed, the entire Divine Sword School will not let you off the hook.”
Situ Muyang felt the need to remind Su Yi that the Dark Spirit Fruit Tree held greater value than the fruit itself. It was a true treasure, and if the tree were destroyed, the Divine Sword School would surely issue severe punishment.
Xu Jiahui, Zhang Qing, and the others exchanged amazed looks. The Dark Spirit Fruit Tree was indeed a great treasure, and Su Yi’s courage in uprooting it was beyond belief.
A smile played on Su Yi’s lips, and from the beginning, his focus had been on the Dark Spirit Fruit Tree. When he first saw it, his thoughts didn’t dwell on the Dark Spirit Fruit itself, but on the potential benefits the other herbs and spirit plants in the mysterious space might gain from the Dark Spirit Fruit Tree’s presence. If the tree could be transplanted into that space, its growth could become far more powerful.
“Don’t worry, it shouldn’t be a major issue. Stay here, and I’ll transplant the Dark Spirit Fruit Tree. The fewer people who know about it, the better for its safety.”
With that, Su Yi hoisted the tree, mounted the Dark Golden Demon Falcon, and swiftly departed.
“If something happens to the Dark Spirit Fruit Tree, he’ll be the one to face the consequences!” Situ Muyang thought to himself as he observed Su Yi leaving. “This person is truly bold. The Divine Sword School holds treasures like the Dark Spirit Fruit Tree in the highest regard, yet Su Yi dared to uproot it.”
Xu Jiahui and Zhang Qing, left without words, understood they were not in a position to speak. They had only been brought along and had no standing to comment.
…
“Swoosh, swoosh…”
The space teleportation gate illuminated, and figures emerged from it.
Although young, they possessed a striking aura and remarkable presence. After stepping through the gate, they immediately proceeded onward.
…
In a concealed area, Su Yi had the Dark Golden Demon Falcon stand guard while he carried the Dark Spirit Fruit Tree into the mysterious space.
Inside the space, the energy of heaven and earth was so dense it seemed to form a mist. The Spiritual Essence pool in the center shone with radiant light, its glow extending outward.
Su Yi planted the Dark Spirit Fruit Tree and carefully watered it with Spiritual Essence, hoping it would flourish. He knew that every fifteen years, another batch of Dark Spirit Fruits could be harvested.
As for the Divine Sword School’s reverence for the Dark Spirit Fruit Tree, Su Yi wasn’t overly concerned. It was a valuable treasure, and it would thrive in the mysterious space. He decided to take it for now and deal with the consequences later.
After ensuring everything was in place, Su Yi glanced back a few times before leaving. About forty to fifty fruits hung on the tree, and he hoped they would endure.
When Su Yi reunited with Situ Muyang, Zhang Qing, Xu Jiahui, and the others, he immediately retrieved five Sword-patterned Stones from the cavern of the Wolf-headed Demon Bat, along with numerous spiritual herbs and a precious Xuan Weapon-grade sword left by someone.
“I’ll meditate and recover my energy for a while before we continue,” Su Yi announced.
After the battle with the leader of the Wolf-headed Demon Bats, Su Yi felt exhausted. He could not afford to be careless in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords, where maintaining peak condition was crucial.
Sitting cross-legged in the cavern of the Wolf-headed Demon Bat, Su Yi popped a Qi-replenishing pill into his mouth and began meditating to restore his energy. With ample resources at hand, including these pills, he didn’t need to worry.
Surrounded by the Wolf-headed Demon Bats and the Dark Golden Demon Falcon, Su Yi meditated undisturbed.
Situ Muyang waited patiently, though he couldn’t help but be astounded. From everything he had seen, Su Yi was far from an ordinary outer disciple. Such power and cultivation were rare—there was no way he was just an outer disciple.
Xu Jiahui and Zhang Qing also meditated cross-legged on the ground, focusing on their breathing. They had yet to fully absorb the benefits of the Spiritual Essence they had taken. Under its influence, they could feel an invisible transformation, radiating an aura that grew stronger each day.
Time passed, the sun dipped below the horizon, and night fell quietly.
The moon hung dim in the sky, stars scattered brightly, and the night was peaceful and still.
In the distant mountain peaks, pairs of eyes resembling bloody moons flickered in and out of view.
In the air, pairs of sharp eyes gleamed, and several rounds of blood-red moons hung in the void like lanterns.
“Roar…”
A wolf’s howl echoed across the mountain peaks, breaking the silence. A large group of Wolf-headed Demon Bats appeared, rising into the air with a bloodthirsty aura.
Pairs of blood-red eyes glowed in the darkness, casting a strange hue across the night sky.
“Ah-oo…”
The leader of the Wolf-headed Demon Bats let out a chilling howl, its massive wings unfurling as it hovered midair. A dark, blood-red aura surrounded it, radiating powerful bloodlust. Its eyes locked onto something in the distance.
“Swoosh, swoosh…”
Figures rushed from the cave, revealing Situ Muyang, Zhang Qing, Xu Jiahui, and others. As they looked forward, they felt a chill run down their spines, their instincts filled with fear.
Ahead, low in the sky and on the rocks, pairs of fierce, blood-red eyes glared at them, like full moons in the dark. Several massive figures materialized, exuding an overwhelming aura.
“They are demon beasts, all from the Demonic Spirit Realm!”
Xu Jiahui, Zhang Qing, Liu Ji, and others gasped, their faces pale with fear. At a glance, they could tell these were demon beasts from the Demonic Spirit Realm. The ominous aura in the air indicated that these were powerful beasts from that realm.
“These demon beasts are from the fourth or fifth level of the Demonic Spirit Realm, and they’ve come prepared!”
Situ Muyang spoke, and a faint black, earth-like aura emanated from his body. He could sense that these beasts were at the peak of the fourth level of the Demonic Spirit Realm and the fifth level of the Yuan Spirit Realm. So many strong demon beasts had gathered—they were clearly on a mission.
“Something’s off. Are they about to start a war?”
Although Xu Jiahui couldn’t understand the beasts’ language, she could feel the tension in the air. The Wolf-headed Demon Bats and the demon beasts seemed to be preparing for an imminent conflict. It looked like war was about to break out.
The group of demon beasts had come together, apparently intending to siege the leader of the Wolf-headed Demon Bats.
“I suspect these powerful demon beasts are after the Dark Spirit Fruit…” Situ Muyang observed, his face clouded with concern. Several Yuan Spirit Realm demon beasts had arrived, all focusing on the Dark Spirit Fruit, which the Wolf-headed Demon Bat was guarding. This suggested they were after the fruit themselves.
Treasures like the Dark Spirit Fruit were incredibly tempting to cultivators at the Yuan Spirit Realm and demon beasts at the Demonic Spirit Realm level.
“Roar, roar…”
A deafening roar echoed as a massive, two-headed creature emerged. It was as large as an elephant, its body covered in thick yellow-green skin, resembling armored flesh. Its grotesque, wild boar-like heads glared fiercely, their blood-red eyes gleaming in the dim light.
