Chapter 2169 - 2166: Fifth-grade Immortal Fruit!

Chapter 2169: Chapter 2166: Fifth-grade Immortal Fruit!

Quickly, Chu Feng followed others to a Secluded Valley within the Heavenly Mang Forest.

At this moment, a large group had already gathered around the Secluded Valley, all from nearby major sect families.

Most were experts at the Immortal Realm and Foundation Establishment Realm levels.

And within the Secluded Valley, waves of refreshing fragrance filled the air, making anyone feel a surge in power with each breath.

This fragrance was emanating from a purple fruit growing on the valley’s stone wall.

The fruit bore mystical patterns, exuding an incredibly terrifying aura.

This was what everyone called an Immortal Fruit!

"It’s a Fifth-grade Immortal Fruit, a Thunder Cloud Fruit, highly effective for immortal cultivators practicing thunder attribute power; even others can rapidly increase their strength upon consumption!"

At this time, an elder with gray hair looked at the purple Immortal Fruit with shock and spoke.

Upon hearing the elder’s words, others became excited, their eyes filled with greed and longing, fixated on the Fifth-grade Immortal Fruit.

Immortal Fruits, besides Immortal Stones, are the most vital cultivation resources on a middle-level plane,

born from the essence of Heaven and Earth, containing extremely potent energy.

Once consumed, they can increase the power of immortal practitioners.

Immortal Fruits are also divided by grades, the lowest being First-grade, the strongest being Ninth-grade.

Of course, there are even stronger Immortal Fruits beyond Ninth-grade, but these aren’t within the understanding of mere Cangyan Realm inhabitants.

Gathered here were mostly individuals from third-class forces, among them several cultivators from second-class forces who had rushed over upon hearing the news.

For them, the most they might see is some First-grade or Second-grade Immortal Fruits, or perhaps have Third-grade or Fourth-grade Immortal Fruits in their sect family.

However, they had never seen a Fifth-grade Immortal Fruit.

Not even the forces they hailed from had ever possessed one.

Fifth-grade Immortal Fruits in the Cangyan Realm are only possibly owned by top-tier second-class forces or first-class forces!

Today, a Fifth-grade Immortal Fruit was born here,

naturally enticing countless people present to covet it.

Soon, over five hundred people gathered here.

Among them were elders from the Wind Cloud Sect, bringing along their novice disciples.

Initially planning to return to the Wind Cloud Sect, upon hearing about the fruit’s emergence,

the disciples clamored to witness the legendary Immortal Fruit,

leading the elders to bring them here.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!

In an instant, an impatient crowd charged toward the Secluded Valley, aiming to seize the Fifth-grade Immortal Fruit.

With some taking the lead, others were unwilling to lag behind and rushed forward too.

At this moment, Chu Feng shook his head at the group vying for the Immortal Fruit.

Hiss hiss hiss!!!

Just as the crowd reached within two meters of the Immortal Fruit, the sudden sound of a tongue flicker was heard.

In an instant, a giant Seven-Colored Python lunged out from the valley, tens of meters long,

its head as massive as a lantern, flicking its tongue, its eyes fierce and menacing.

Faced with the sudden appearance of the python, the intruders and spectators outside were stunned.

They hadn’t expected such a colossal python to exist within the valley.

As for Chu Feng, having been warned by Little Qiuqiu, he was already aware of the python’s presence.

The python had been hiding to consume the Immortal Fruit upon its maturation,

and now, with rivals emerging, naturally wouldn’t spare them.

The python swiftly swung its massive tail, slamming toward the crowd.

Bang bang bang!!!

The group at the Immortal Realm and Foundation Establishment Realm were caught off guard and were hit directly by the python’s tail,

their bodies exploding on the spot, scattering blood throughout the valley.

In a blink, dozens attempting to seize the fruit perished, without leaving a single intact corpse.

At this moment, the hundreds outside the valley collectively gasped.

Their eyes reflected fear, their expressions grave.

"This... This is a Fourth Order Demon Beast Seven-Colored Python!"

"From its aura, it’s at least a Fourth Order Late Stage existence!"

The elder who previously mentioned the Fifth-grade Fruit exclaimed again.

Upon hearing "Fourth Order Demon Beast," others’ faces changed, looking grim.

Fourth Order Demon Beasts can match Profound Immortal Realm-level immortal experts!

On a middle-level plane, starting from the Immortal Realm, then the Foundation Establishment Realm,

followed by Spirit Immortal Realm, Profound Immortal Realm, and True Immortal Realm.

A Fourth Order Demon Beast equates to a Profound Immortal Realm-level expert.

Now, most present were at the Immortal Realm and Foundation Establishment Realm levels,

how could they contend with a Fourth Order Demon Beast equivalent to Profound Immortal Realm? Isn’t that just seeking death?

For a time, the crowd shook their heads, revealing bleak gazes, clearly abandoning thoughts of competing for the Fifth-grade Immortal Fruit.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!

At this moment, several figures appeared.

"Look, isn’t that the Sect Master from the second-class Luoxia Sect?"

"And the former Family Head of the second-class Chen Family!"

"Even the Sect Leader of the Xuanshi Sect has arrived!"

Many present exclaimed in surprise.

This group, arriving now, were super strong people from various second-class forces within a hundred thousand miles.

They were Spirit Immortal Realm and Profound Immortal Realm experts!

Clearly, they had heard of the Immortal Fruit’s emergence in the Heavenly Mang Forest and rushed over.

"Seven-Colored Python? Fourth Order Demon Beast?"

These second-class forces’ experts eyed the python, surprise flickering in their gaze.

"Fifth-grade Immortal Fruit!!!"

They then noticed the Fifth-grade Immortal Fruit,

immediately revealing an incredibly excited expression, eyes filled with greed.

A Fifth-grade Immortal Fruit, this could tremendously boost their power, a Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure indeed!

Consuming it could allow a Profound Immortal Realm expert to potentially break through to the True Immortal Realm.

While a Spirit Immortal Realm expert could instantly reach Profound Immortal Realm, even advancing to the Ninth Layer of Profound Immortal wouldn’t be a problem.

With such a treasure before them, how could they not be tempted?

"This Seven-Colored Python is tough; I propose we first join forces to take it down, then vie for the Fifth-grade Immortal Fruit by our own means!"

The Sect Master of Luoxia Sect suggested.

"Okay!"

Other second-class force experts nodded.

They understood well; relying solely on their own strength would be insufficient against the python, only by uniting could they hope!

Swoosh!!!

Just as they prepared to act against the python,

a sharp sound of something slicing through air came from the void.

A Flying Sword shot rapidly toward the valley!
