Chapter 196: Chapter 195: The Contest

"You don’t need to say anything!"

Lin Fan spoke again.

After that, under the control of Lin Fan’s will, the Elemental Stones began to dance irregularly, scattering around in a disorderly fashion.

Upon seeing this, Shi Hu and the Ape became even more puzzled.

They would never imagine that Lin Fan was setting up an Array.

Because they both knew well that setting up an Array requires Elemental Stones to be arranged in a specific pattern, never so chaotically scattered. Moreover, besides Elemental Stones, one also needs Array Flags and an Array Plate to set up an Array!

Therefore, in their eyes, Lin Fan was definitely not setting up an Array.

A while later, an Array was successfully set up.

However, Lin Fan had yet to make a move.

Because Lin Fan had decided to wait until the Life Fruit was about to ripen, then find a way to lure the Ape over and trap it within the Array, giving himself the chance to take the Life Fruit.

Time ticked by, second by second.

A fragrant aroma began to emanate from the Life Fruit.

Shi Hu, somewhat anxious, said, "That’s great, it looks like the Life Fruit is about to ripen, but..."

Then, a look of worry appeared on Shi Hu’s face.

Although the Life Fruit was about to ripen, the Ape was too powerful; even after the Life Fruit ripened, the two of them would still be unable to obtain it.

In his heart, Lin Fan thought, "It’s time to act!"

Then Lin Fan said to Shi Hu, "Go and provoke the Ape, remember, you must make it angry, but... once it gets angry, come back to me immediately, and don’t get entangled in a fight!"

Shi Hu looked at Lin Fan in surprise, understanding his intention, and asked, "Young Hero, do you mean... lead the Ape over here?"

Lin Fan nodded.

Shi Hu said, "But, even if we lead the Ape over, it won’t make any difference, right? On the contrary, we are no match for the Ape, and if we enrage it, we might get into trouble!"

Lin Fan said, "You don’t need to say anything; just do as I tell you."

After hesitating for a moment, Shi Hu finally nodded and said, "Okay!"

Shi Hu did not know what Lin Fan had planned, but in this situation, he had no other choice but to follow Lin Fan’s instructions.

"Kill!"

After a roar from Shi Hu, his Longsword appeared in his hand, and he charged at the Ape.

"Roar!"

The Ape roared angrily in response.

The Ape was infuriated.

But the Life Fruit was about to mature, and to prevent any accidents from happening, it had to stay and guard the area.

Shi Hu’s sword strike had already been unleashed and was quickly countered by the Ape.

Of course, during the counter, the Ape always stayed guard and never left its post.

Once again, Shi Hu made his move.

Sword strike after sword strike, like rolling thunder, struck at the Ape relentlessly.

Initially, the Ape could manage to cope.

But...

Shi Hu’s attacks grew fiercer and fiercer, and the Ape was beginning to struggle as it stood there on the defensive without attacking.

Suddenly, the Ape got mad.

Completely mad!

It decided to teach these two humans a lesson for not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth.

Swoosh...

Similarly, Shi Hu also pushed his speed to the limit.

However, Shi Hu felt the distance between himself and the Ape closing in rapidly.

For a moment, Shi Hu’s heart tightened with nervousness; he knew that if the Ape caught up with him, he would surely die.

Finally, Shi Hu had reached Lin Fan’s side.

Just as the ape finally charged forward, it launched its attack, preparing to kill Lin Fan and Shi Hu in one fell swoop.

"Buzz..."

Just then, the massive luminous pillars suddenly lit up.

Upon the appearance of these massive pillars of light, they enveloped the ape completely in an instant.

The ape was immediately immobilized, trapped within the enormous pillars of light.

The Array activated, and the ape was caught!

"This..."

Shi Hu was utterly dumbfounded upon witnessing this turn of events.

He hadn’t expected such a thing to happen in the end?

"Is this... an Array?"

Shi Hu asked in astonishment.

"Roar roar roar!"

At this moment, the ape let out reluctant roars of fury. It was too unwilling to accept this outcome; it had never imagined that it would fall into a trap set by these damned humans under its carelessness.

It was infuriating!

Meanwhile, the ape started to feel regret.

Had it known things would come to this, it wouldn’t have been so careless.

"What a rich fragrance!"

At this point, Shi Hu also cried out.

Lin Fan smelled the fragrance as well.

Both Lin Fan and Shi Hu looked towards the Life Fruit to see it now green and translucent, giving off a magical sensation.

"The Life Fruit is finally ripe!"

A smile appeared on the faces of both Lin Fan and Shi Hu.

Lin Fan said to Shi Hu, "I’ll keep an eye on the ape; you go and get the Life Fruit."

Lin Fan trusted Shi Hu quite a bit; even if Shi Hu got the Life Fruit, he wouldn’t dare to hoard it for himself, knowing that Lin Fan had placed an Array within his soul. Lin Fan only needed a thought to annihilate Shi Hu.

"Okay!"

After responding, Shi Hu immediately rushed towards the Life Fruit.

At this moment, Shi Hu was worried about other potential mishaps, so he pushed his speed to the limit.

"Roar roar roar!"

The ape roared even more furiously.

It also mobilized all its energy, frantically assaulting the surrounding Array.

It was evident that the ape intended to break through the Array set up by Lin Fan with its fierce power.

But unfortunately, no matter how much energy the ape used, it was all in vain.

Shi Hu was now quite close to the Life Fruit, and it seemed that in the next moment, he would be able to harvest it.

Bang...

Just then, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Shi Hu, throwing a punch towards him.

This person appeared so abruptly.

Moreover, his strength was immense, having reached the Heavenly Martial Level. With Shi Hu unprepared, his body was sent flying by the blow.

A tall, middle-aged man appeared.

"The Life Fruit is mine!"

The tall middle-aged man said coldly.

Come.

Caught completely off guard, the purple-clothed woman staggered back several steps before she barely managed to stabilize herself.

The tall middle-aged man shouted loudly, "Everyone be careful, there’s something strange around the Life Fruit!"

At this time, Lin Fan finally let out a long sigh of relief in his heart, secretly thinking, "So there was a natural Array set up around the Life Fruit? Thank goodness, thank goodness!"
