Chapter 733: Extreme Flaming Earth Fruit

"Extreme Flaming Earth Fruit!" Even someone as composed in cultivation as Bing Xinzhu couldn’t help but exclaim, luckily Zhou Heng reacted swiftly, spreading his right hand and activating a Minor Rune for attack, which annihilated her exclamation before it could spread.

"Calm down!" Zhou Heng patted her shoulder, among the Flame People below there were surely some of Sublimation Sovereign’s existence, and even a few breaths that were extremely obscure, those were definitely Sublimation Emperor!

If they were discovered, it would be very difficult for them to snatch the treasure!

Bing Xinzhu was just too excited and quickly nodded, signaling she wouldn’t make the same mistake again.

"What exactly is this Extreme Flaming Earth Fruit that you value so much?" Zhou Heng wondered.

"Of course, it’s a Heaven-Earth Spirit Fruit!" Bing Xinzhu gave him a glare.

This little wench, is she really trying to turn the world upside down?

Zhou Heng revealed a mischievous smile and reached out with his right hand, touching Bing Xinzhu’s slender waist and gently caressing it.

Bing Xinzhu’s face was an incredible shade of color. She never expected Zhou Heng to dare to take liberties with her at such a time. She was completely unguarded!

This blockhead, he just told her not to get excited, but with his actions, how could she not be excited?

Yet she couldn’t resist, a struggle would attract the attention of those Flame People below, and then they would have no choice but to fight, unsure whether they could still snatch the Extreme Flaming Earth Fruit.

The bastard, he must know this, so he did it on purpose!

Bing Xinzhu glared at Zhou Heng fiercely, trying to make him back off with a glare.

As Zhou Heng touched her waist, the feeling was incredible, making him utterly reluctant to let go. He conveyed through his Divine Sense, "Good wife, you still haven’t said what the Extreme Flaming Earth Fruit is good for?"

Bing Xinzhu dared not keep Zhou Heng in suspense any longer and said, "Only the Blazing Flame Land can give birth to the Extreme Flaming Vine, which takes at least thirty thousand years to mature, then produces fruit after another fifty thousand years, which is the Extreme Flaming Earth Fruit. This fruit initially forms underground and only surfaces as it matures along with its vines, which takes another twenty thousand years!"

"This is Minor Holy Medicine grade, a great tonic for any Creation Emperor, allowing them to glimpse even deeper secrets of the next realm!"

"For those in the Sublimation Realm, one Extreme Flaming Earth Fruit is almost enough to elevate one to another realm!"

Zhou Heng nodded, no wonder these Flame People held the Extreme Flaming Earth Fruit in such awe, and that Sublimation Emperor-level figures could appear in this place where Martial Path heritage should be nonexistent!

It must be that their ancestors have lived here for generations, and some individuals happened to eat the Extreme Flaming Earth Fruit, thus becoming Sublimation Emperor existences!

Even... there may be Creation King existences among them, just suppressed by the Rune of Delusion’s Power of Laws, currently able to display only the power of a Sublimation Emperor.

But the effects of the Extreme Flaming Earth Fruit are so powerful that this deal is definitely worthwhile!

"I’ll take two, you get one!" Bing Xinzhu proposed to Zhou Heng.

"You greedy woman, you haven’t even married into the family and you’re already this grasping! No way, I’ll take two, you get one!" Zhou Heng quickly shook his head.

"You’ve taken so much advantage of me and you’re not willing to let me have one more fruit? Stingy!" Bing Xinzhu gave him a coquettish glare.

Don’t mention it, because she usually shows people a cool demeanor, this glare seemed especially charming, making Zhou Heng’s little heart skip beats uncontrollably. But his head can be cut off, blood can flow, a man’s sovereignty cannot be lost!

He resolutely shook his head, saying, "Don’t think I don’t know what you’re scheming, you just want to suppress me in the realm and beat me up again, right? Haha, one day you’ll be under me, and you’ll be under me for the rest of your life!"

Bing Xinzhu was so embarrassed by his rascally words that her face flushed red, and she became even more annoyed. She had coyly thrown him a flirtatious look, and that blockhead simply ignored it! She was fuming!

Both she and Zhou Heng didn’t really have to worry about the speed of their cultivation; it’s just that she had been bullied by Zhou Heng too severely, and so she thought of using the power of the Extreme Flaming Earth Fruit to reverse the situation and suppress Zhou Heng!

-Her purpose in entering here was not for the Heavenly Scripture but for the Holy Medicine!

"We’ll split it half and half!" She compromised.

"Kiss me, and I’ll agree!" Zhou Heng bargained.

"Why should I?" Bing Xinzhu swung her fists in anger, how could he extort her at such a time?

"Because I am more powerful than you, and I will be the one exerting more effort, I should rightfully receive two Spirit Fruits. Now, I am giving you half of one extra; surely you have to show some gratitude, right?"

"...Men shouldn’t be so petty!"

"Brothers must settle accounts clearly! So will you kiss or not, if not, let’s forget it, one only!" Zhou Heng threw down the final ultimatum.

Bing Xinzhu had no choice; if Zhou Heng ate one more Extreme Flaming Earth Fruit than her, wouldn’t he surpass her by an entire realm? Wouldn’t she be even less of a match for him then? Damn it, he knew she couldn’t refuse!

"Fine, I agree!" She nodded resentfully.

"Then kiss me!" Zhou Heng pointed to his lips.

"Now? No way!" Bing Xinzhu hurriedly shook her head, "After we get the Extreme Flaming Earth Fruit!"

"I’m afraid you’ll renege when the time comes, so if you’re going to kiss me, do it now; otherwise, the offer expires!" Zhou Heng also shook his head, adamant in his stance.

Bing Xinzhu glared at Zhou Heng with indignation. After a while, she finally relented and said, "Fine, I’ll kiss you now, but you have to close your eyes and no peeking!"

"Okay!" Zhou Heng closed his eyes.

Bing Xinzhu hesitated a moment, then slowly tilted her head and leaned in.

"Mmm—" Just as her red lips were about to touch Zhou Heng’s mouth, she didn’t expect him to suddenly open his eyes. He didn’t wait for her to withdraw but embraced her and planted a firm kiss on her lips.

Their lips instantly intertwined.

Bing Xinzhu’s mind went blank, incapable of forming a single thought.

Zhou Heng, having indulged in the kiss to his heart’s content, then withdrew with satisfaction and said, "Your reaction was a bit slow, but it’s okay, you can improve. Remember to cooperate next time!"

Hearing those words, Bing Xinzhu finally snapped out of her dazed state, her cheeks instantly flushing red, her starry eyes shimmering with brightness, yet her expression was fiercely livid.

Thinking there would be a next time?

She reached out a hand toward Zhou Heng’s waist and gave it a vicious twist!

Hisss!

Zhou Heng grimaced in pain. Why did all women know this move?

"Stop messing around. In a moment, I’ll draw their attention. Meanwhile, you take the opportunity to pick the Extreme Flaming Earth Fruits. You go around this way, I’ll go around that way, and we’ll meet up front!" he said, drawing a plan on the ground.

"Aren’t you afraid I’ll eat all three Extreme Flaming Earth Fruits?" Somehow, hearing Zhou Heng arrange the plan like this, Bing Xinzhu felt an inexplicable touch of emotion, silently chiding herself for being too soft-hearted and easily moved.

"Yeah, how did I not think of that!" Zhou Heng immediately showed a look of annoyance, smacking his head and saying, "Alright, then let’s switch tasks!"

Bing Xinzhu’s face twitched, as the touch of emotion she’d just felt flew away, replaced by a raging fury.

How infuriating, she had just been moved by him!

"Haha, don’t be angry, I was just teasing you!" Zhou Heng pinched her fair cheek gently, "You’re my wife, why wouldn’t I trust you?"

Before Bing Xinzhu had a chance to retaliate, he had already launched himself into the air, initiating the Swift Cloud Radiant Step. He darted towards the valley like an enraged dragon, letting out a long howl that shook the skies.

"Roar! Roar! Roar!" the Flame People in the valley all turned to look at him. Those of lower realms roared back in response, while those of higher realms charged at him, flames billowing with their movements.

Zhou Heng roared with laughter, shaking his fists, boom boom boom, his punches flew like lightning, launching nineteen Sublimation Kings into the air all at once, and seven Sublimation Sovereigns were forced to retreat en masse, completely no match for him.

This was to be expected; after all, he was now a Sixteen Aspects Sublimation King, his power having leaped into the Sublimation Sovereign realm. So faced with the might of his Minor Runes, which Sublimation Sovereign could contend with him?

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The few obscure-energy Flame People in the valley were forced to reveal themselves, not many in number, only five. Four of them were true Sublimation Emperors, but the aura of the fifth was much stronger, albeit forcibly suppressed to the level of a Sublimation Emperor!

This was a Creation King!

Zhou Heng was undaunted, summoning the Black Sword and saying with a laugh, "Sorry for the inconvenience, I need to borrow your Spirit Fruits; please forgive my offense! But, in advance, I promise not to kill a single one of you!"

"Outsider, you dare intrude on our ancestral ritual, your crime is unforgivable!" the Creation King resounded with Divine Sense, as he didn’t speak human language, but Divine Sense communication circumvented the complication of language barriers.

"My apologies! My apologies!" Zhou Heng bowed respectfully, considering himself quite reasonable. While the Extreme Flaming Earth Fruits were not cultivated by the Flame People, they had found them first, therefore he promised not to kill anyone.

"Kill!" Four Sublimation Emperors joined forces in an attack. They weren’t concerned about ganging up on the few; this was their ancestral ritual, and any disruptor must die!

Zhou Heng brandished the Black Sword, his aura abruptly unfurling and washing over the entire field with a boom.

Boom boom boom bang, the Flame People below the Sublimation Emperor level immediately fell to the ground, and even the four Sublimation Emperors were slightly weakened!

Within the same Realm, only a Martial King could barely withstand his aura, and naturally, the higher the realm, the less they were affected by his aura. But this didn’t mean they were completely unaffected!

Because this aura was mixed with the potency of the Rune of Delusion, which had transcended the confines of realms and become a Law!

These four Sublimation Emperors were not Martial Kings, so even though they were two realms above Zhou Heng, they were still impacted, albeit not profoundly, and not enough to be defeated by him.

Zhou Heng let out an unending howl. Facing the united force of four Sublimation Emperors, he dare not show the slightest complacency. The Black Sword was now imbued with the attacking Minor Rune, and the Starry Sky Sword Technique was fully deployed, nearly reaching his strongest battle power.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

He engaged ferociously with the four Sublimation Emperors, each clash shockingly potent, shattering columns in the valley one after another. After nearly ten minutes of fighting, both sides were still locked in a tough battle until the Creation King finally could not stay idle and stepped forward.
