Chapter 573: Chapter 573: Strange Fluctuations! Great Thousand Divine Power Fruit!

Zhu Fei, carrying Shui Biyun, had flown tens of thousands of miles further before the suffocating fluctuations of demonic power they had felt earlier finally began to fade.

However, as their gazes unintentionally swept backward, they were shocked to see a mountainous creature, its body pitch-black, briefly flash before disappearing.

The forest where they had originally been was nothing more than a clump of small grass on the back of that immense beast.

Such a colossal disparity in scale involuntarily made Zhu Fei and Shui Biyun exchange glances, a trace of fear inexplicably rising in their hearts.

Had Zhu Fei not reacted promptly just now, escaping at his fastest speed at the first sign of danger, whether the two of them would still be alive was a question worth pondering.

Even so, Zhu Fei still dared not be the slightest bit careless at this moment.

He swallowed a Qi Pill, a pill he had casually concocted several days earlier, after receiving those Pearl Fruits, which could help cultivators below the level of Harmonization quickly recover their depleted True Yuan and mana.

Thus, Zhu Fei, with Shui Biyun in tow, flew rapidly for some time before finally stopping atop a seemingly safe mountain peak.

"Biyun, I need to recover my cultivation now. For the time being, I’ll have to trouble you to act as my protector."

The moment Zhu Fei and Shui Biyun landed on the mountain peak, he turned to Shui Biyun and directly spoke.

There was no other way; he had just instantaneously used a combination of Third-turned True Essence, and it had lasted for quite some time, causing him to suffer from a backlash, albeit imperceptibly.

Were it not for the fact that his Nine Venerable Body Cultivation Skill had already reached the third stage, the Xuan Body state, the backlash he would have faced would have been even more terrifying and severe.

"Mhm, Brother Zhu, you just focus on recovering. I’ll keep watch over everything here."

Shui Biyun also felt the extreme instability in Zhu Fei’s internal energy and immediately nodded firmly in response.

"Alright, then I’m counting on you, Biyun."

Zhu Fei was not one for idle talk. After a slight nod, he quickly took out several pills and swallowed them, then he started channeling the Five Elements Creation and Transformation Skill, rapidly beginning the task of calming the slightly agitated True Yuan within his body.

...

Several 2-hour periods later, when Zhu Fei had finished meditating and opened his eyes, he was suddenly aware of a faint, peculiar fluctuation coming from about a hundred li away.

This made Zhu Fei momentarily startle, and he looked somewhat perplexedly towards Shui Biyun, who was standing beside him acting as his protector.

"Brother Zhu, you’re finally awake."

Seeing that Zhu Fei had finished recuperating and was showing no signs of discomfort, Shui Biyun let out a slightly relieved sigh.

But soon, an expression of excitement swiftly appeared on her face.

"Brother Zhu, if my guess is correct, that peculiar fluctuation coming from over there should be the Dao Fruit fluctuation I mentioned to you earlier, the kind that can help one comprehend the profound mysteries," she said.

"Oh, is there really such a thing?"

Zhu Fei’s eyes glittered, and almost instinctively, his Divine Sense transformed into a wide net, swiftly sweeping toward the origin of the fluctuation.

However, what caused Zhu Fei to slightly frown next was that as soon as his Divine Sense approached the location of the fluctuation, it encountered a very distinct barrier that blocked his Divine Sense outright, preventing him from seeing the true situation within.

"Mhm, Brother Zhu, there seems to be an artificial Prohibition over there."

At this moment, Shui Biyun seemed to have also noticed something amiss and could not help but furrow her brows in concern.

Zhu Fei could not help but feel astonished, looking at Shui Biyun’s expression; it seemed she had had no knowledge whatsoever about the situation over there before.

As if guessing what Zhu Fei was thinking, Shui Biyun hurriedly explained,

"Brother Zhu, don’t get me wrong. Because I was acting as your protector earlier, even if I felt the fluctuations over there, I didn’t immediately extend my Divine Sense to inspect it. I only just discovered the manmade Prohibition there."

With that being said, Shui Biyun protecting Zhu Fei was quite professional.

Knowing that treasures were appearing, she was still able to suppress her own curiosity and desire and refrain from carelessly investigating anything beyond her protector duties, which is not something just anyone could do.

Zhu Fei, of course, was also aware of this; upon hearing this, warmth rose in his heart.

He smiled, nodded, and said, "It’s fine. It’s not too late for us to know now. We should not find this level of manmade Prohibition to be a challenge."

As he said this, Zhu Fei’s forehead suddenly swelled.

Green, red, yellow, white, and black—the five-colored brilliance astonishingly bloomed between Zhu Fei’s brows, slowly forming an eye composed of the five-colored light.

In the next second, Shui Biyun shockingly saw a beam of illusory light shooting out from the eye on Zhu Fei’s brow, which immediately fell upon the distant manmade Prohibition.

"All right, Biyun, we can now go over and check out the situation in detail."

Having said this, Zhu Fei did not wait for Shui Biyun’s reaction. He directly took her delicate hand and immediately flew towards the distance.

When the two reached their destination and saw the dreamlike Prohibition before them, Zhu Fei did not hesitate to take Shui Biyun and dash right into it.

Yet what surprised Shui Biyun was that as soon as she and Zhu Fei touched this layer of Prohibition, it seemed to respond, and directly opened a passage for them.

"Who’s there? Get out!"

As soon as Zhu Fei and Shui Biyun had passed through the Prohibition and landed on the ground inside, an extremely cold voice immediately rang in their ears.

In addition, a tremendously fierce Sword Qi also shot towards the two of them!

Zhu Fei’s eyes immediately turned cold, and without using any Magical Treasures, he simply stretched out a finger and flicked fiercely at the incoming Sword Qi.

With a "ding" sound, the Sword Qi violently shattered.

It was only then that Zhu Fei’s gaze swept coldly in a direction to his left.

"Hmph, who do I think it is? It’s you again, Chang You. Have you still not had enough? If you want to die, I can certainly oblige you later—there’s no need to rush."

That’s right, the one on Zhu Fei’s left side and the one who had just attempted a sneak attack on him was none other than a disciple of the Shushan Sword Sect, Chang You!

Besides, apart from Chang You, there were also Ji Xuanyue, Ao Feng, Mo You, and the youth dressed in white and blue who had attacked Zhu Fei previously due to Ji Xuanyue’s schemes.

However, aside from Chang You and the youth in white and blue, the gazes of the other three were all fixed on a pristine-white tree not far away that bore nine jade-like fruits.

Upon seeing the large tree and the fruits growing on it, even someone as composed as Zhu Fei could not help but become excited.

Because those nine fruits on the tree, he had seen them in his previous life; they were the Dao Fruits, the Great Thousand Divine Power Fruits that could enhance one’s understanding of various profound principles!
