Chapter 2309: Chapter 2307: Begin the Operation

"Ah! This is...?" Staring at the True Spirit Fruits in front of her—each one packed full of vast, rich Bloodline Power—Hongyi cried out in shock.

Up in the Nine Heavens, it was as if Zhang Xiaohao heard her voice.

"They’re called True Spirit Fruits, refined with the help of an Ancient Super Formation! And the nourishment they need is precisely this True Spirit essence blood." Zhang Xiaohao said seriously.

"My lord, could it be that you already set up such a Formation here beforehand?" Hongyi asked.

In her subconscious, something as powerful as this kind of Formation couldn’t possibly be arranged in such a short time unless it had been prepared in advance, much less absorb and refine True Spirit essence blood.

Even the lowest-ranked True Spirit—each strand of its essence blood is a priceless heavenly treasure. Using ordinary methods to refine it is absolutely impossible.

"Heh heh! That can wait till later. Right now, I’ll first collect all these True Spirit Fruits in front of us, then we’ll give them a proper greeting." Zhang Xiaohao said with a smile.

Swoosh!

As his voice fell, his body blurred, and when he appeared again he was already in front of the huge blood-red tree.

"All of you, get over here!" Zhang Xiaohao let out a low roar.

He waved his right hand, and a Devouring Heaven Giant Mouth tens of thousands of zhang wide appeared in mid-air. Terrifying suction exploded from that Giant Mouth, as if it wanted to swallow the entire world.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

The next moment, the True Spirit Fruits on the blood-red Holy Tree before him spun off into the air, turning into streaks of multicolored radiance, and were swallowed by that enormous Devouring Heaven Giant Mouth.

Over two hundred thousand True Spirit Fruits—even with this Devouring Heaven Giant Mouth devouring them, it wasn’t something that could be finished in an instant.

This process took almost a full two hours.

"Collect!" Suddenly, Zhang Xiaohao let out a low shout.

He waved his right hand, the Shennong Ring flashed, and he put away the Devouring Heaven Giant Mouth before him; all the True Spirit Fruits inside were stored into the Shennong Ring.

"Hide!" After finishing all this, Zhang Xiaohao tapped with his right hand, the Power of Reincarnation appeared, circling around the massive blood-red Holy Tree, concealing it.

After doing all this, Zhang Xiaohao’s body flickered and he appeared before the black gate.

He flipped his right hand, took out a Big Bear cigarette, lit it, pinched with two fingers and summoned a strand of golden flame at his fingertips to ignite it, then squinted as he blew out a mouthful of smoke.

Swoosh!

Hongyi’s figure flashed, appearing at Zhang Xiaohao’s side.

"Young master, what do we do now? How are we going to flood this place?" Hongyi asked.

"Don’t rush. They just entered this Grotto Heaven; it won’t be easy for them to get out. You come in with me first." Zhang Xiaohao said.

"Where is young master going?" Hongyi asked.

"To do what everyone loves to do." Zhang Xiaohao said with a perfectly straight face.

"Mm." Hongyi snapped out of it, a blush blooming across her delicate, stunning face, making her look incomparably beautiful.

"Come on, let’s go in." Zhang Xiaohao said with a smile.

Holding Hongyi in his arms, his body blurred, and they appeared inside the Spirit Boat.

"Kneel! Get down properly!" Zhang Xiaohao ordered.

"Yes, young master." Hongyi answered shyly.

She immediately followed Zhang Xiaohao’s instructions, honestly kneeling on the floor and getting into position.

Zhang Xiaohao let out a smug, wicked chuckle, walked to her front, pinched her delicate, tender, Bai Yu-like chin, and said playfully:

"Let’s start with this first."

"I’ll obey young master’s every command." Hongyi said shyly.

Zhang Xiaohao just stood there, smoking his Big Bear, puffing out stream after stream of smoke.

As for everything else—that was Hongyi’s department.

After these days of "training," Hongyi’s improvement in technique had been insanely fast; she no longer bit Zhang Xiaohao by accident.

Four hours later.

Roar!

Zhang Xiaohao let out a low roar, and only after a long while did he finally stop.

"Young master!" Hongyi called out shyly.

"Kneel! Get down properly!" Zhang Xiaohao ordered.

"Mm." Hongyi obediently knelt down.

Roar!

Zhang Xiaohao roared again, turning into a wild beast—a starving tiger pouncing on its prey—lunging at her ferociously.

The fierce battle kicked off right then. One terrifying move after another flowed from Zhang Xiaohao’s hands—combination strikes, set after set—crashing down with brutal force.

The thirty-six Heavenly Gang forms, seventy-two transformations, one hundred and eight routines, three hundred and sixty techniques and more, all intertwined and combined into all sorts of powerful ultimate skills, unleashed in a mad barrage on Hongyi.

Under Zhang Xiaohao’s overwhelming moves—simple, crude, savage, wild, violent—even though Hongyi’s physique was tough and her Innate Divine Ability was very strong, she still couldn’t withstand him.

As they clashed, miserable cries rang out one after another from Hongyi’s mouth, echoing all around.

But Hongyi wasn’t like Long Xian’er—she didn’t beg for mercy or plead to be spared. She only used her actions to explain everything, fighting it out with Zhang Xiaohao.

This process lasted for a full three days. Only when Zhang Xiaohao let out another low roar did it finally come to a complete stop.

"Young master, you’re amazing! Every time I feel like I’m falling apart, I almost don’t even have the strength to move." Hongyi said shyly.

"Hahaha—! Of course. This young master’s combat strength has always been insanely high. I can hunt tigers in the mountains, wrestle Jiao Long in the seas! Even if I run into Divine Beasts or whatever, this young master can still beat them down and toy with them." Zhang Xiaohao said proudly.

Wisps of smoke rose one after another from his mouth as he exhaled.

"Young master, hurry and tidy up your clothes! Later you still have to flood this Grotto Heaven secret realm." Hongyi said.

"Mm." Zhang Xiaohao nodded.

He waved both hands, casting a water-element Magic Formula to wash himself clean, then flipped his right hand and took out a brand-new set of clothes to put on.

A short while later.

Zhang Xiaohao was already fully dressed, looking at Hongyi with a smile.

"Wait for me here." Zhang Xiaohao instructed.

He waved his right hand, and a huge pile of delicacies, drinks, red wine and more appeared on the table, covering it completely. Rich aromas wafted from the food, spreading out into the surroundings, very, very fragrant.

"Don’t just stand there dazed. Eat something first and pad your stomach." Zhang Xiaohao said with a smile.

Swoosh!

Having said that, Zhang Xiaohao’s body blurred, and he was already back at the black gate.

"Reincarnation Heavenly Eye!" Zhang Xiaohao let out a low shout.

He twisted his hands into a seal, golden light flaring in his eyes as it flooded toward the black gate. Under the Reincarnation Heavenly Eye, this black gate couldn’t block Zhang Xiaohao’s sight at all—it was completely seen through.
