Episode 19: The Five Elements of Zhu Guo Move Pre-Heaven

  The demon beast was just a demon beast, and as long as its spiritual wisdom had not been awakened, no matter how powerful it was, it could not withstand the sinister calculations of humans. Duan Yue first let Lu Zhang and his four men attract the attention of the poisonous tiger king, then took advantage of the opportunity to launch a sneak attack. Although he only used one sword, he struck with certainty, directly killing it with one blow.

  "Dead?" The four of them stared blankly at Duan Yue, although they had seen his incredible strength more than once before, but never thought that it would be so powerful, comparable to the Poisonous Tiger King of the Pre-Heaven Realm, and yet was killed by Duan Yue with just one sword!

  Gently wiping the blood off his sword, Duan Yue sheathed it and said calmly: "This Poisonous Tiger King is just a newly promoted tribal king, its strength can at most be compared to that of a First Heaven True Immortal. If not for this, I wouldn't have been able to kill it with one sword so easily."

  At most, it's just barely comparable to the First Heaven of the Innate Realm?! The four of them looked at each other, and suddenly felt speechless. With their cultivation, they were still far from reaching the Innate Realm. To them, an Innate strong practitioner was simply an Innate strong practitioner; whether it was one or several Heavens didn't matter that much anymore.

  Duan Yue didn't say much, and directly went forward to open the corpse of the Poisonous Tiger King, taking out a bright green inner elixir about half the size of an infant's fist. He immediately lit a fire stick and walked towards the cave. The other four people also lit their own fire sticks and hurriedly followed up.

  The cave extended inward, not too deep, only about 16 or 17 zhang. After lighting the torches, the five of them followed the light to the deepest part of the mountain, which was a small stone chamber. At the top of the cave, there was a small hole as thick as an arm, and sunlight fell from it, shining directly on a three-foot-tall emerald green plant.

  Not thick branches, sparse green leaves, the top is divided into five parts, with five fruits of different colors.

  "It's a Five Elements Crimson Fruit, and it's already matured for a thousand years." Lu Changkong's voice was filled with extreme excitement: "Red belongs to fire, green belongs to wood, white belongs to metal, blue belongs to water, yellow belongs to earth. The Thousand Year Five Elements Crimson Fruit belongs to the five elements, and can enhance one's power, dispel the bottlenecks encountered during cultivation, whether it's consumed directly or used in medicine and alchemy, it has an enormous effect."

  "This Five Elements Crimson Fruit has actually been around for a thousand years?" Upon hearing this, the normally arrogant Hong Yijiang couldn't help but be shocked, and his voice was filled with excitement as he said: "With it, doesn't that mean we can all try to break through to the Innate Realm before the age of 25?!"

  Even Duan Yue was shocked, originally he thought it was just an ordinary five-element crimson fruit, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be a thousand-year-old five-element crimson fruit. The medicinal power of the thousand-year-old five-element crimson fruit is not comparable to that of ordinary five-element crimson fruits. As Hong Yijiang said, those who eat it can break through the innate boundary before the age of 25. For Duan Yue, besides being able to increase his cultivation by a level, it can also make his true yuan more pure and increase his cultivation speed in the innate boundary.

  Uh! It seems that Duan Yue's cultivation speed is already fast enough, but he still wants to be faster. If others find out, they might have the idea of strangling him to death.

  Huang Yi Jiang stared intently at the Millennium Five Elements Crimson Fruit Tree, unable to help but lick his lips, suppressing the excitement in his heart: "The effect of the Millennium Five Elements Crimson Fruit is extraordinary, naturally there's no need to say more. After harvesting, just this single Crimson Fruit Tree alone would be worth at least a thousand taels of gold if sold on the market."

  Duan Yue said in a low voice, "Don't forget, I have priority selection rights. How about this, I'll take away the share that belongs to me, and for what needs to be handled, you guys just pay me cash directly." No choice, bro is really short on money now!

  "Just listen to Brother Qiu." Knowing that the opponent was a natural high-hand, they were willing to divide it equally and give themselves face. Lu Changkong didn't waste words and calculated directly: "Those ten ordinary poisonous tiger beasts' corpses are worth 1,000 taels of white silver each, four fully grown poisonous tiger beasts are worth 2,500 taels each, the poisonous tiger king is worth 10,000 taels, plus the Zhu fruit tree is worth 1,000 taels of yellow gold. The total is 130,000 taels of white silver, which is equivalent to 1,300 taels of yellow gold. Divided among five people, it's 260 taels of yellow gold each. It's not very convenient here, let's take the Zhu fruit tree outside the cave and divide it first."

  This remark was quite polite, after all, Duan Yue came from a society governed by law and didn't have any murderous intentions. He nodded in agreement and together with Lu Zhangkong and the others carefully dug up the thousand-year-old Five Elements Pearl Fruit Tree along with its soil and transplanted it outside the cave.

  "There are two gold notes worth one hundred and fifty taels, I'll give them to you first, Huang Shidi, Yang Shidi, and Liu Shimai, you all gather the silver coins and give them to Qiu Gege." As soon as they exited the cave, Lu Zhongyuan hastily called out to several people to pool their money together.

  It's okay, these few people are all disciples from the Water Shadow Gate of Blackstone City. Compared to those aristocratic families' direct descendants, they can't be compared, but for most people, it's already quite good. Piecing together seven or eight odds and ends, although a bit fragmented, they finally managed to scrape together 1,000 taels of white silver, enough for Duan Yue's share of the dividend.

  Duan Yue smiled and unceremoniously put away the gold and silver he had earned, which was his own hard-won gains, so he didn't feel embarrassed at all.

  He immediately took another step forward, picked off the water-based Zhu fruit, put it in a jade box and sealed it well, smiling: "I just want this one, the remaining four please help yourself."

  Although the four of them were all from the Water Shadow Sect, not everyone was cultivating water-based martial arts. Moreover, cultivators could still switch to other elemental martial arts before reaching the Xiantian realm. So when Duan Yue took away the water-elemental Zhu Guo, although it was a bit regrettable, it wasn't extremely concerning.

  "In a lower position, take a step forward, and that's it." Duan Yue said, raised his foot and was about to leave, but suddenly stopped and said in a low voice: "Someone!"

  Lu Changkong was shocked, and he hastily signaled to several of his junior brothers and sisters to pick some red dates and put them away safely. Lu Changkong took a step forward and shouted loudly towards the not-too-distant place: "I am Lu Changkong, a disciple of Shuiying Gate; please show yourself!"

  "Haha, Shuiying Gate, that's the small sect created by Liu Yi Feng Lao Er. You can scare others with it, but I'm from the Meng Hu Lie Tu, who are you trying to scare?" Along with a loud laugh, a group of sturdy men walked out of the dense forest, led by a man with an ugly appearance and a black eye patch covering his left eye, clearly blind. His appearance was even more ferocious in combination with his looks.

  "Fierce tiger hunting team, a group of scum, let your mother's fart!" Insulting the master and the sect is the most taboo thing in the cultivation world. For a martial artist, this is simply the greatest shame. Even if his cultivation is not enough, Huang Yi Jiang still can't help but curse loudly.

  "Little kid, are you looking for death?" A cold hum came from the one-eyed man's mouth, his eyes staring straight at Huang Yi Jiang, exuding a fierce glow and an aura of murder.

  The road is long and empty, and he knows that the newcomers are not good people. This group of people is probably some fugitives recruited by the Tiger Hunting Team. Suddenly, his face changed, and he said in a low voice: "I don't know what instructions you have?"

  The one-eyed man sneered and said: "Haha... ...still this little brother knows how to talk, I dare not accept the advice, it's just that recently my brothers have been a bit tight on hand, so I thought of borrowing some money from you guys."

  Lu Chang's eyebrows furrowed tightly, and he subconsciously reached out to grasp the hilt of his sword. However, when his gaze fell upon his junior brothers and sisters, he could only compromise: "We don't have much silver on us, but we can give you the demon beast materials, which should be worth tens of thousands of taels!" He couldn't see through the opponent's true energy cultivation, so it was no surprise that they had at least reached the tenth layer of the acquired stage. If Duan Yue didn't take action, then aside from him, his junior brothers and sisters would likely suffer a disastrous defeat in battle.

  If they had met on the road and encountered this group of people, Duan Yue would have naturally taken action for the sake of the Five Elements Zhu Guo. However, now that he has obtained what he wanted, whether or not he will take action is another matter altogether. Lu Kong was cautious by nature and wouldn't gamble with the lives of his few junior brothers and sisters.

  Who would have thought that although Lu Changkong was soft-spoken, the one-eyed man was clearly not buying it. He suddenly burst out in a loud voice: "You little brat! You think we're beggars, and you want to fool us with just a few tens of thousands of silver coins? Now, I'll give you a choice: if you hand over the Zhu Guo tree and the Zhu Guo horse, and leave immediately, I might consider sparing your lives. Oh, and Liu Yifei's granddaughter can't leave - our commander has been thinking about her for a long time, it's just right to take her back as his wife."

  As soon as this remark came out, the men following him burst into strange laughter and made a big noise.

  At these words, in an instant, Liu Yuanying's face turned pale, her teeth biting her lower lip, almost as if she wanted to bite through her own lips.

  Lu Chang's face sank, but he still suppressed his anger and said: "Sir, aren't you joking with me?" Seeing that his tolerance couldn't solve the problem, he also got a bit angry.

  "Whoever is joking with me, I'll count to three. If you don't behave yourselves, don't blame me for being ruthless." The one-eyed man grasped the hilt of his knife behind his back, looking like he was ready to take action.

  On this side, Huang Yi Jiang has become impatient, his face red with rage, and he roars: "If you want to fight, then fight, what's the point of talking nonsense."

  "It's not that I look down on your little strength, but if we really fight, none of you will be able to escape. Of course, there is still a chance now... one, two... Kill them for me!" As soon as the voice fell, the one-eyed man had already drawn his knife and leapt up, using both hands to wield a fierce blade of light, which slashed down towards Lu Chang and the others!
