Chaos Dao Sheng Jue

Chapter 1403 Starfrost Time Fruit

The battle had barely begun when a thick, pungent stench of blood filled the air. The duel between Lu Chen and the tall man was particularly intense; their exchanges were dazzling, the flashes of swords and blades creating a breathtaking spectacle.

Lu Chen knew in his heart that this battle could not be lost and had to be resolved quickly. Therefore, he used his spatial domain to quickly seal off the surrounding space.

"Prepare to die!" Lu Chen roared, brandishing his greatsword, Godslayer, and unleashing the seventh move of the Primordial Nine Blades, "Starry Sky."

With a single strike, heaven and earth froze; the Dharma form moved at will, and in an instant, countless stars appeared, its power overwhelming mountains and rivers.

With a single strike, the vast expanse was devastated, like a meteor streaking across the sky, burning nests and ravaging lairs, annihilating all living beings within its range in the blink of an eye, leaving no room for defense.

Above the sky, countless large swords suddenly materialized, poised to be unleashed like a barrage of arrows.

At this moment, the heavens and earth changed color, the clouds rolled and unrolled, and countless celestial forms gathered above one's head.

The moment the greatsword fell, it was as if a meteor shower suddenly began to fall from the sky. Countless sword shadows rushed towards the tall cultivator, creating a tremendous spectacle.

Upon seeing this, the tall man's pupils suddenly contracted. He dared not be negligent and quickly cast a defensive spell, forming hand seals. The surrounding space instantly solidified, forming a sturdy protective shield.

But Lu Chen's attack was incredibly powerful. Wherever the blade passed, the protective shield was easily torn apart like paper, directly hitting the tall man's body.

"what……"

A scream rang out as the tall man's left arm was severed at the root, blood gushing out.

At the same time, another man in black robes saw that things were not going well and wanted to go forward to help, but Lu Chen keenly noticed him.

He flashed and disappeared from his original spot, appearing behind the man in black robes the next moment, his greatsword, Godslayer, slashing down mercilessly.

The man in black robes was restricted by the boundary space and couldn't react in time. He was cut in two, and his blood stained the ground red.

At this moment, the situation on the field underwent a dramatic change. The originally evenly matched battle turned into a one-sided affair due to Lu Chen's powerful counterattack, fighting two opponents at once.

The cultivator who fought Pei Hu was terrified when he saw his two companions die one after another. Before fleeing, he gritted his teeth and said, "You're all dead! My Xuanming Holy Sect will not let this go! Run!"

Lu Chen sneered, "You talk too much nonsense. Since you're here, don't even think about leaving alive."

After saying that, Lu Chen launched another attack. His figure was as fast as lightning, and the greatsword in his hand, Godslayer, continuously unleashed the Primordial Nine Blades, swinging it so tightly that it was impenetrable. Each strike carried the power to destroy the world.

Although the black-clad cultivator fought desperately, he was forced to retreat under Lu Chen's powerful offensive. In the end, Lu Chen found an opening and beheaded him with a single stroke.

On the other side, with Lu Chen's help, Pei Hu flashed into Wu Qingyan's battle. With his agile skills and powerful strength, Pei Hu's every attack caused spatial tearing, making it difficult for his opponent to defend.

Wu Qingyan, on the other hand, focused more on the combination of skill and speed. Wielding a long sword, her swordplay was unpredictable and fluid, like flowing water, destroying everything in her path without a trace.

Working together, the two killed the man in just a few breaths. As the final scream faded into the air, the fierce battle finally came to an end.

Lu Chen, Pei Hu, and Wu Qingyan quickly collected the storage rings of the others. After checking them with their divine senses, all three were very satisfied with the results of the battle.

"We really owe you a lot this time, otherwise I don't know what would have happened," Wu Qingyan said gratefully to Lu Chen.

Lu Chen smiled slightly, but did not let his guard down: "These people are extraordinary. We must leave here as soon as possible." As he spoke, Lu Chen had already put the Seven-Colored Holy Spirit Mushroom, along with the soil, into the Golden Pearl World.

Wu Qingyan and Pei Hu naturally had no objection to Lu Chen's actions, after all, Lu Chen had made the greatest contribution by killing the three people.

After cleaning up the battlefield, the three continued deeper into the forest...

At this very moment, in a valley deep within Mount Jiyuan, there is a low and gently sloping hill.

Here, spring reigns all year round, and the air is filled with a faint spiritual aura and a mysterious aura of the Great Dao.

On the hilltop, a solitary, peculiar tree grew. It wasn't very tall, only about three zhang (approximately 10 meters) in height.

The tree has a thick trunk with spots on its bark that resemble stars, each spot seemingly containing endless mysteries.

The branches twist and turn, like a work of art by nature, stretching out in all directions to form a wide green canopy.

The leaves are thick and glossy, like jade carvings, and each leaf shimmers with the radiance of life in the sunlight.

The most eye-catching thing is the fruit hanging all over the branches, which is the Star Frost Time Fruit.

These fruits are round in shape, about the size of a baby's fist, and covered with a faint halo that shimmers with a mysterious light as the light changes.

They initially appear greenish, but as time goes by, they gradually turn pale yellow, foreshadowing the approaching ripeness.

Once the fruit turns completely golden yellow, it means that the power of time within it has reached its peak, making it a treasure that cultivators dream of.

At this moment, there are more than twenty figures standing around the Starfrost Time Fruit Tree.

They stood or sat, their eyes filled with anticipation and nervousness, clearly knowing that the Starfrost Time Fruit was about to ripen, and thus eagerly awaiting its arrival.

Although these people dressed differently, they were all powerful cultivators at the Transformation Realm.

Among them were not only powerful figures from the five great holy sects, including Moye Saint, Wuhen Saint, and Daoli Saint, but also powerful figures from other holy sects, as well as several powerful rogue cultivators.

"It seems we've arrived at just the right time," a middle-aged cultivator in a purple robe said in a low voice, his eyes fixed on the fruit tree. "But these old guys are really proactive. They never showed up in previous years, but they've all come today."

An old man beside him nodded: "That's right. The God Realm is in ruins now, the Great Dao Laws are missing, and resources are severely scarce. A mature Starfrost Time Fruit can greatly increase one's cultivation level. It would be strange if they didn't come."

Upon hearing these words, the faces of the hosts, including the Sage Without Trace and the Sage of Daoyin, turned extremely grim.

Logically speaking, since Nanman County is under the jurisdiction of the Five Great Holy Sects, and Epoch Divine Mountain is located in Nanman County, the eighty-odd Starfrost Time Fruits on this tree should naturally belong to the Five Great Holy Sects.

However, the current situation is that the other forces far outnumber the five holy sects, and their strength is no less than that of the five, putting the five in a passive position, yet they are helpless...
