Chapter 4125: Poisonous Fruit
Spirit Diagram, and it was a nine-star one at that!
When these words fell, quite a number of people’s eyes immediately lit up, but those Imperial Sons were completely unmoved, and did not look excited.
How could it be that the Imperial Clan would be short of top grade Spirit Diagrams?
But it should be known that Imperial Sons were only a minority, after all. This kind of reward was enough to move the majority.
Meanwhile, Ling Han desired it the most. His Celestial Core was only marked with five Regulations, and he was in desperate need of even more top-grade Spirit Diagrams. Wasn’t this all prepared for him?
Hopefully, there would still be top grade Spirit Diagrams on the subsequent islands, which would allow him to mark all the space of the Celestial Core, and he would be able to break through to the fourth level of the Core Formation Tier.
Ling Han asked Chi Menghuan some simple questions. This Imperial Daughter didn’t hide anything from Ling Han, telling him what he wanted to know.
Every Imperial Clan had nine top grade Spirit Diagrams. Why were there only nine? It was clear that there were far more than nine types of Nine Star Energy. Very simple, even Ancestral Kings could only communicate with nine top grade high-level energies, and there was an upper limit.
Thus, every Imperial Clan only had nine top grade Spirit Diagrams, but this was already enough. Only those at the level of Imperial Son would be able to combine the Nine Cauldrons, and only those at the level of Imperial Son would be able to inscribe the nine top grade Regulations.
In battle, grasping too much high-level energy did not have much meaning. Ordinarily, two to three types would be enough.
This was also one of the reasons why the Great Emperor hadn’t plundered the inheritances of other Imperial Clans after achieving dao.
Ling Han could only feel rueful about the deep roots of the Imperial Clans. The clansmen really only needed to cultivate. As long as their natural talent was high enough, they could completely cultivate to Saint Tier in the Imperial Clan before coming out. If they could bring the Imperial Weapon with them, they would completely be able to sweep aside all opposition in the world.
“Then let the competition begin!” With a command from the Demon Race member from before, this hunting competition began.
Instantly, teams set out one after another, entering into the boundless mountains.
The mountains were extremely primitive, and the roars of dragons and tigers could be heard everywhere, making one panic just from hearing them.
The teams gradually dispersed. At present, it had not reached the point where they would be fighting each other.
Ling Han took the lead, and after walking for a while, the first prey appeared ahead of them.
“F***, retreat!” Ling Han swept an eye over, and hurriedly stopped the large black dog that was about to make a move.
“Motherf*cker, True Self Tier?” The large black dog inhaled sharply as well. There was a panther-shaped vicious beast lying in front of him. It had probably just had its fill and was in a state of rest.
Thankfully, Ling Han managed to stop it in time. Otherwise, if it had just boldly rushed forwards, it would definitely have been killed with a single palm strike.
“Retreat.”
They circled around. Thankfully, this fierce beast had not been awakened, so it naturally did not attack them.
The team travelled further, and not too long later, they discovered a second fierce beast.
However, this was still the level of the True Self Tier.
Another turn… they encountered a third True Self Tier great beast. Furthermore, this time, the fierce beast had also discovered them, and began its pursuit. It was a complete mess.
Thankfully, both Ling Han and Chi Menghan had grasped movement techniques that were at least Saint-level. Their speed was astonishingly fast, and was not inferior to that great beast at all. Only then did they, together with the other two people and one dog, manage to escape from the clutches of its paws.
“No way, all the fierce beasts here are True Self Tier?” the large black dog said with its tongue sticking out. If that was the case, then what was the point of hunting? They were the ones being hunted, all right?
Ling Han pondered for a moment, then said, “We’ll try to find that team from the Demon Race.”
“That’s right!” Chi Menghan nodded. “They won’t assign us an impossible mission, so let’s see what the Demon Race will do.”
They stopped hunting, and instead went to find that team from the Demon Race. After spending half a day’s time, they successfully found it.
At this time, this team of Demon Race just happened to encounter a fierce beast. Of course, it was a True Self Tier-level beast, but this team that was completely made up of Core Formation Tiers did not retreat. Instead, they drew out their spears and bows. With a command, the ten of them moved to attack at the same time.
Shua, shua, shua! All of a sudden, spears and arrows rained down on that fierce beast.
With the strength of a cultivator at the Core Formation Tier, wouldn’t it be a piece of cake for him to throw over a dozen spears and shoot several arrows at once?
Once the attack was launched, the fierce beast was naturally alerted, but at this moment, it was already too late for it to dodge. It raised its claws and swatted at those spears and arrows. With the strength of the True Self Tier, swatting these things aside was naturally a piece of
cake.
However, this was not the case.
These spears and arrows didn’t seem to have been fired by Core Formation Tiers. They possessed a terrifying penetrating ability, and they easily tore through the force of the fierce beast’s attacks and continued to pierce through it.
Pu!
The vicious beast was hit, and it was as if it were in extreme pain, causing it to jump around madly. And at this time, those Demon Race members all retreated, making the vicious beast completely unable to find a target to vent its anger on.
After jumping around madly for a while, that fierce beast lost all signs of life, and fell heavily onto the ground, no longer able to move.
He was dead.
He died just like that?
“F***, cheating, how shameless!” The large black dog gritted his teeth. This was too ridiculous, wasn’t it? Ten Core Formation Tiers launched a volley of attacks at the same time, and they actually killed a True Self Tier-level fierce beast?
Who would believe that? Who was he kidding!
A thought flashed in Ling Han’s head, and he began to recall all the details of the Demon Race’s attack just now. After a while, he said, “If the islanders didn’t cheat, then the problem
lies with their weapons.”
“That’s right,” Chi Menghan said with a nod. She pointed at the Demon Race members who were retrieving their weapons, and said, “These should be special weapons that can penetrate the defenses of True Self Tier.”
“So that’s how it is!” The large black dog was infuriated. They actually dared to trick him?
“Let’s go and snatch it!” it shouted.
“All right, we’ll go snatch it!” Ling Han laughed loudly. The rule of this hunting competition was that there were no rules. Thus, it was completely possible to snatch the weapons of the Demon Race. Perhaps, this was the only way to pass.
The team of five charged out. Since they knew how powerful this team of Demon Race was, what need was there for them to be wary?
Sure enough, the group of five only managed to dodge a volley of attacks from the Demon Race team before charging right up to them. The strength of both sides were on two completely different levels, and these Demon Race members were instantly defeated. Ling Han did not kill anyone. This was only a tournament, and even these Demon Race beings were only manifestations of a single thought from an elite. However, precisely because he had not killed anyone, those Demon Race members actually took the initiative to reveal their secrets. As it turned out, the reason why these weapons could kill a True Self Tier great beast was only because the spears and arrows were stained with the liquid of a fruit.
This kind of fruit grew on the island. It was not common, but it was not rare either. If one searched carefully, they would definitely be able to discover it.
Those Demon Race cultivators described the appearance of the fruit in detail, and Ling Han and the others left. Of course, they still confiscated the weapons. There was no reason to
return them.
The group of five searched for a while in the mountains and forests, and sure enough, they discovered the fruit that the Demon Race had mentioned. They followed the method of the Demon Race, and stabbed the tip of spears and arrows into the fruit. It was enough to dip it in some fruit juice, and this would become a deadly weapon.
