Chapter 223 - 223 222 Sixth Grade Fire Dragon Fruit Extra

223: Chapter 222 Sixth Grade Fire Dragon Fruit (Extra) 223: Chapter 222 Sixth Grade Fire Dragon Fruit (Extra) Everyone’s eyes were fiery as they stared at the red fruit on the molten lava.

“Fire Dragon Fruit!”

A Martial Artist from the Lie Family exclaimed, his fists clenched tight.

Meng Yan’s eyes lit up as if he remembered something, his lips curling into a smile.

He intently stared at the distant red fruit, which was oval-shaped with four protrusions on its shell, resembling four coiled dragons.

“Indeed, it is the Fire Dragon Fire!” Meng Yan’s expression turned fervent.

Zhu Hao’s face lit up with joy, “This is a Sixth Grade Spiritual Fruit!”

Fire Dragon Fruit, a Sixth Grade Spiritual Fruit in Xia Country, was exceptionally precious—it was unexpected to find it here!

“Prepare to take action!”

A Martial Artist from the Lie Family shouted, and instantly three shadows rapidly dashed out.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

The three shadows, powerful and quick, transformed into streaks of light and flew out.

“How dare you!”

Other factions’ Martial Artists saw this scene and also dispatched their Martial Artists.

Apart from the Earth Fire Sect and the Engraving Alliance, a total of eleven people rushed towards the Fire Dragon Fruit.

Bubbles churned within the molten lava, gradually starting to boil.

“Ah—”

A few Martial Artists from the Spirit Sea Fifth Heavenly Realm suffered from molten lava piercing their spiritual power defenses, leaving horrific wounds on their bodies.

They struggled for a moment and three Martial Artists fell into the molten lava screaming continuously.

But soon, they sank beneath the surface.

Hiss—

Everyone gasped, looking at the fiery red molten lava with wary expressions.

Such heat, probably no one below the Soul Fusion Realm could escape unscathed.

Many hoped for a one-time success.

Many factions’ Martial Artists prayed.

“Idiots, how could that possibly happen!” Zhu Hao disdainfully said, “Such a Spirit Fruit can’t be that easy to pick!”

As if responding to his words, a wave suddenly surged from the molten lava, rising more than five meters high.

Like a miniature waterfall, the fiery red molten lava exploded in mid-air.

“Ah!”

Several more screams echoed as a few Martial Artists fell into the molten lava.

The remaining Martial Artists’ complexions drastically changed as they stimulated their spiritual power to the limit.

Roar!

A deep roar echoed, reverberating in the air.

A towering figure emerged from the molten lava, emitting a terrifying demon energy.

A bright red light shone as if it was about to tear apart the air, forming a dark red energy above the entire molten lava.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The remaining Martial Artists, unable to change direction in mid-air, were struck by these energies and fell into the molten lava.

Whoosh!

The fiery red figure landed on the rocks, giving a ferocious glare at the people.

The expressions of the Martial Artists on the shore changed repeatedly, especially those from families like the Lie Family who had sent out their elites.

They felt acute heartache.

All those were elite members of their families, just like that, they had lost their lives!

“Such heavy demon energy!” Meng Yan took a deep breath.

Everyone else too looked towards that figure with wary eyes, instinctively stepping back.

It was a three-meter-tall demon ape, completely fiery red, its skin like crystal armor, glinting with a dim glow.

“This aura is probably at the peak of a Fifth Rank Demon Beast!” Deacon Wang sighed.

A Fifth Rank Demon Beast, which was comparable to a Martial Artist of the Spirit Sea Seventh Layer Heaven, and a peak Fifth Rank was even closer to the Soul Fusion Realm.

Moreover, demon beasts were inherently stronger than Martial Artists of the same rank, and nearly no one present was a match for the demon ape.

As for overwhelming it with numbers, that was futile—ordinary Martial Artists weren’t enough to withstand a single strike from the demon ape.

The scene just now was enough to illustrate the problem.

Seven or eight martial artists, half of whom were of the Spirit Sea Sixth Layer Heaven, could not withstand a single blow from the demon ape.

“Are we just going to give up like this?” The crowd was unwilling.

It was a Sixth Grade Spiritual Fruit, after all!

Since ancient times, the Soul Fusion Realm had been a barrier that kept most martial artists out.

Only a very few could cross it and become true powerhouses.

However, if they had this kind of Sixth Grade Spiritual Fruit, there was a great chance for a martial artist to enter the Soul Fusion Realm.

That was why everyone was going mad.

Even if they couldn’t enter the Soul Fusion Realm, they could still advance a smaller realm.

No one would give up such a Spirit Fruit.

Everyone turned their eyes to the Earth Fire Sect at that moment.

It was a Third-Grade Sect, and the team was led by Young Master Meng, the top figure in the Hidden Dragon List.

He surely had a way.

Feeling the gazes of everyone, Meng Yan smiled faintly.

“Everyone, if you want this Spirit Fruit, we need to work together,” he said.

“Oh?

Does Young Master Meng have a plan?” Many martial artists showed joy.

Although the demon ape was fierce, its intelligence was average, no match for humans.

We can use strategy to lure it away,” Meng Yan said.

While Meng Yan and the others were discussing plans, Lin Xuan and his two companions had circumvented the Stone Gate underground and sneaked in.

“Be careful, there is molten lava ahead!” Lin Xuan’s eyes flickered as he whispered.

“Let’s hurry out!” Jiang Ruyue felt uncomfortable being underground.

“Wait, let’s scout the situation first,” Lin Xuan said cautiously.

His eyes glimmering with a purple light, as if to pierce through the soil.

He extended his Soul Power, perceived all the external information, and relayed it to Jiang Ruyue and the short elder.

“It’s Fire Dragon Fruit!” the short elder exclaimed, “That’s a Sixth Grade Spiritual Fruit!”

Lin Xuan’s pupils constricted slightly; he naturally knew the wondrous uses of a Sixth Grade Spiritual Fruit.

“We must get our hands on it!” A gleam of excitement shone in Lin Xuan’s eyes.

“Just you?” Jiang Ruyue scoffed, “That demon beast could squash you with one slap!”

“And, there are so many martial artists outside.”

“So, we can’t go out; we must lie low in the shadows.”

Lin Xuan smiled and said, “You two aren’t also aiming for the Fire Dragon Fruit, are you?”

“Nonsense!” Jiang Ruyue snorted lightly.

“You kidding?

With all your wealth, everything you pull out is a Spirit Fruit; just let me have it!” Lin Xuan joked.

“Go to hell!” Jiang Ruyue burst angrily.

“Let’s save these words for after we get the prize!” the short elder said.

The three carefully concealed themselves underground; meanwhile, Meng Yan and the others had already come up with a plan.

A group of people used a secret technique to draw the demon ape away while their True Bodies rushed towards the Fire Dragon Fruit.

“Old man, help me stop Meng Yan later.

You can have one-third of the Fire Dragon Fruit,” Lin Xuan said with a smile.

The short elder looked at Lin Xuan in surprise, then said solemnly: “Yes.”

“Come find me at the Engraving Alliance!” Lin Xuan released the Snow White Monkey, ready to retreat at any moment.

Meng Yan, the Lie Family, and other forces swiftly pounced toward the Fire Dragon Fruit while behind them rose the furious roars of the demon and the screams of martial artists.

“No good, the beast is aware!” a martial artist from the Lie Family said, panic on his face.

“Hmph!” A slight smile appeared at the corner of Meng Yan’s mouth; his hand was almost touching the Fire Dragon Fruit.

However, in the next moment, the Fire Dragon Fruit disappeared.

Meng Yan’s pupils dilated sharply, his eyes urgently scanning around, and the other martial artists also cried out in shock.

Swoosh!

A white figure flashed by with extreme speed.

The Snow White Monkey, holding the Fire Dragon Fruit, made a face at everyone and vanished with a swoosh.

“It’s that monkey, damn it, chase it!”

“Lin Xuan!” Meng Yan muttered darkly, his voice laden with a killing aura.
