Chapter Index

With so many forked paths, obviously some were safe and some were dangerous. But Yang Kai didn’t know how to choose for a while, so he could only grit his teeth and randomly choose one to drill into.

And just as he disappeared, Lan Xun and Xiao Chen also broke free from that illusory formation. Yang Kai’s back figure happened to come into Lan Xun’s field of vision.

“Huh…” Lan Xun’s eyes showed a strange color. “He’s actually faster than me?”

“What?” Xiao Chen followed behind Lan Xun and didn’t notice the situation ahead, so he couldn’t help but ask doubtfully.

“It’s nothing.” Lan Xun shook her head, turned around and took a look. She found that the two of them were only ten steps away from the previous entrance. The surroundings were empty, and there was no sign of anyone else. She knew the power of that illusory formation well and didn’t bother to care about the life and death of others. She said to Xiao Chen, “Let’s continue walking.”

Moments later, the two came to the front of the forked path. Lan Xun deliberately chose a different path from Yang Kai and walked in.

Although there are many fork roads here, the light is not dim. There are some luminous strange stones dotted around the fork roads, emitting a soft light.

Yang Kai radiated his spiritual thoughts to twenty zhang outside his body, while vigilant about the possible dangers he might encounter, and groped forward.

After walking for a while, Yang Kai suddenly showed a strange expression on his face and listened intently. There was a faint sound of fighting coming from the front, and there seemed to be a hint of bloody smell diffusing out.

His heart was shocked, and he quickly withdrew his spiritual thoughts, held his breath, and slowly walked forward.

Soon, he came to the outside of an empty hall. Although the area of this hall is not as large as the place where everyone entered at the beginning, it is not small either.

The situation in the hall is clear at a glance. There are not many peculiarities. Only in the center position, there is a pool. It is more than four or five zhang deep, and I don’t know what was originally installed in it. Anyway, it is empty at the moment.

And in a position on the left side of this hall, there is a long table. There are two spiritual fruits placed on the table.

I don’t know how many years those spiritual fruits have been placed here, but they still look fresh and new, and even emit a strong aroma. The spiritual fruits are not big, only the size of a fist. They look like two ripe peaches, making people drool.

“This is… the Time Fruit?” Yang Kai’s eyes lit up, and he immediately recognized what kind of spiritual fruit this was.

Previously, he obtained a jade slip left behind by Gong Sunmu, the third disciple of the Miraculous Pill Great Emperor, beneath Yuan Ding Mountain. The jade slip detailed the types, names, appearances, and refining methods of various rare spiritual herbs and miraculous medicines in the Star Boundary.

Yang Kai had long memorized the contents of that jade slip thoroughly. How could he not recognize it!

“So the Age Fruit is something that only exists in the Temple of Time and Space!” At this moment, Yang Kai suddenly understood.

Although he had known about the Age Fruit before, he really hadn’t associated it with the Temple of Time and Space. But now, after seeing this Age Fruit, he suddenly understood everything.

The Age Fruit has a very strange effect. It doesn’t have any substantial help for a martial artist’s cultivation.

Even so, it doesn’t hinder its rarity and preciousness.

The jade slip left behind by Gong Sunmu recorded that the Age Fruit has two completely opposite effects. One is that it can make a person rejuvenate, allowing an octogenarian to become youthful again in a short period of time. The other is like a poison of time, which can make a young and strong person age rapidly in the blink of an eye.

If one doesn’t know how to distinguish between different Age Fruits, no one dares to take it rashly.

Not to mention whether the second effect is useful or not, the first effect will definitely make countless warriors go crazy. Especially female warriors, which one doesn’t want to stay young forever, which one doesn’t want to always be in the prime of their youth? But even if their cultivation base is high and their face-preserving techniques are exquisite. The ruthless knife of time will still leave some marks on their bodies.

As time passes, these marks will become more and more obvious.

But if there is a Fruit of Time that can make people rejuvenate, even an old woman can become peerless in the blink of an eye.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that the Fruit of Time is only useful to women. For those warriors whose lifespan is about to end but have no hope of breaking through. The Fruit of Time is undoubtedly a good medicine to increase lifespan. It can completely make the warrior return to the physical state decades or even hundreds of years ago, which is equivalent to giving people dozens or even hundreds of years of lifespan out of thin air.

In a sense, the value of this thing is more precious than an Emperor Treasure.

After Yang Kai recognized the Fruit of Time, he immediately became energetic.

If this kind of spiritual fruit falls into the hands of others, he doesn’t know what effect it can exert, but if it falls into his hands, it will be amazing. He is an alchemist and can completely use the Fruit of Time as the main material to refine a furnace of Time Pills.

This is almost a kind of elixir that has disappeared, representing huge capital and wealth!

Yang Kai quietly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his gaze turning, and then he focused his attention on the center of the main hall.

There, a human and a monster were fighting.

The fighting sounds that Yang Kai heard before were also made by them.

The human was actually Kong Qi of the Seven Luminaries Chamber of Commerce! And the monster was a huge creature with a blood-red color, as if it was made of poured blood, exuding a disgusting bloody smell all over its body.

This blood monster had a humanoid upper body, a round head, two arms, but its lower body was in the shape of a flowing top. It rushed and walked quickly in the main hall. With the swing of its fists, wrapped in the rich bloody smell, it seemed that it could even blow up the air.

The light of source power bloomed on Kong Qi’s body, his expression was solemn and he was busy running for his life. From time to time, he used moves of moderate power to attack the blood monster, seemingly testing the opponent’s weaknesses.

Warriors like Kong Qi were generally cautious people. After encountering a powerful enemy, they would not make a move casually without absolute certainty.

Before Yang Kai came, Kong Qi had already been dealing with this blood monster for a while. At this moment, he had basically figured out the opponent’s routine and moves, and was only looking for an opportunity to give this blood monster a fatal blow.

“Why did I end up on the same path as this guy?” Yang Kai hid in the shadows, his brows furrowed tightly. Among the dozen or so fork roads earlier, he had simply chosen one at random, but he didn’t expect that someone would get there first.

However, it was also fortunate that Kong Qi was walking in front of him. Otherwise, it would be Yang Kai dealing with the Blood Monster at this moment.

After taking a look at the battlefield, Yang Kai’s gaze turned towards the two Time Fruits on the long table, and a despicable thought couldn’t be suppressed from surging up in his heart: “While this guy is attracting the attention of the Blood Monster, secretly take away the Time Fruits… It’s not too much, right?”

Before this, Yang Kai had never had any dealings with Kong Qi, and there was no gratitude or enmity between them. So when this idea popped up, Yang Kai didn’t feel any embarrassment.

With this thought in mind, he immediately cast the Void Secret Technique, restraining all of his ownsmell and then cautiously walked towards that side.

After the Void Secret Technique was carried out, Yang Kai wasn’t’d really existing in the void Instead he completely isolated his ownsmell, making it impossible for others to detect his existence with their spiritual thoughts, unless the person doing the detection had spiritual thoughts strong enough to penetrate the void.

The only weakness of this secret technique was that others could see him with their naked eyes!

The main hall wasn’t too big. If Yang Kai made too much of a sudden move, he would obviously expose his whereabouts. However, he was also a cautious person. He only waited until Kong Qi and the blood monster had both entered the blind spot of his vision before suddenly exerting force and dashing forward.

Since there was no need to worry about being detected by the spiritual thoughts of others, Yang Kai’s movement could be said to be without scruples.

In the blink of an eye, he rushed to the long table, reached out and grabbed at the two Fruits of Time, intending to put them into the Space Ring.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a light curtain-like restriction emerged above the long table, directly blocking Yang Kai’s hand in mid-air.

Oh no!” Yang Kai shouted in his heart, knowing that he definitely couldn’t act surreptitiously under the noses of others this time.”

Sure enough, the moment the light curtain flickered out, Kong Qi and the blood monster, who were fighting fiercely, all noticed and cast their gazes over.

Kong Qi had a stunned expression on his face, staring at Yang Kai with wide eyes, as if he didn’t expect that someone could attack the spoils he had scheduled without his awareness!

He couldn’t help but sneer and said, “Friend, your cultivation is not high, but your courage is not small!”

“So-so!” Yang Kai replied, but his source power suddenly burst out from within his body. With a fierce punch, he smashed it towards the light curtain on the long table.

Since he had already been discovered, he simply made a blatant move to snatch it.

The restriction of this light curtain was indeed extraordinary. It could still operate after countless years. However, after enduring Yang Kai’s blow, it finally shattered.

Yang Kai was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He grabbed a Fruit of Time with one hand and directly threw it into the Space Ring.

“You…” Kong Qi’s expression turned angry. Anyone would probably not be able to remain calm in such a situation.

After he came in, he discovered those two Fruits of Time. But before he could take them, the blood pool in this great hall suddenly rolled and quickly condensed into a huge blood monster. Kong Qi had no choice but to fight with this blood monster, only thinking about solving this monster as soon as possible and then going to collect the spoils.

Who would have known that Yang Kai would come out halfway and directly snatch the things that should have belonged to him.

“Roar…”

And after the Fruit of Time was taken away by Yang Kai, the blood monster that was originally surrounded by frenzy and ill will suddenly let out a furious roar and rushed in front of Yang Kai like crazy, smashing a huge fist towards him.

“This blow…” Kong Qi’s eyelids shrank, revealing a hint of horror.

He had just dealt with with this blood monster for a long time and thought he had figured out the opponent’s strength. But he didn’t expect that the opponent didn’t show all its strength at all. Just from this blow it attacked Yang Kai, it could be seen that this blood monster was definitely not as easy to deal with as he imagined.

He turned his head to look at Yang Kai again, with a sneer on his face, and said to himself, “Dao Source 1-layer Realm… He’s going to be instantly killed, right?”

In his opinion, even if he himself wanted to defend against this blow, it wouldn’t be an easy task. The other party was just a mere Dao Source 1-layer Realm cultivator, and wasn’t it a matter of being killed with just a blink of an eye?
