Translator: Noodletown TranslatedEditor: Noodletown Translated
Hearing Black Puppy talk, Qingfeng Li was delighted. The Saint Perishing Tree. He couldn't believe that he had heard the name. And to hear about the Saint Perishing Fruit? That was even better news.
The purpose of Qingfeng's journey to the Hell under the Kunlun Mountains was to obtain the Saint Perishing Fruit. After all his hardships, there was finally a light at the end of the tunnel. He had finally heard about the Saint Perishing Fruit's location. He was overjoyed.
”Black Puppy, let's quickly go and find the Saint Perishing Fruit!” Qingfeng Li said enthusiastically.
Black Puppy was also very happy, quickly following Qingfeng Li and the rest 70 kilometers north.
At the sight of them leaving, the surrounding self-cultivators also ran with Qingfeng Li. They felt his powerful presence and knew that they would be safe if they followed him.
Qingfeng Li and his crew sprinted, arriving at the 70-kilometer mark in no time.
A lake greeted them, its water black as night and emitting a bone-chilling dark fog.
The small black tree stood right next to the lake. On top, was a black fruit about the size of an apple that exuded an intense aura.
The surrounding self-cultivators couldn't go near. A faint light circled the surface of the black fruit, reversing the sun and the moon, toppling the heavens and the earth, with mountains and rivers emerging faintly on top. It was needless to say, this kind of black fruit was definitely the legendary Saint Perishing Fruit.
Qingfeng Li's eyes were laced with delight. He had finally found what he was looking for. The only thing standing in his way were all the self-cultivators blocking his path to the fruit.
”Little dog, Sky-Devouring Snake, let's go and grab the Saint |Perishing Fruit,” Qingfeng Li instructed. ”Kill anyone who stands in our way. They are all our enemies.”
Qingfeng Li knew full well that the Saint Perishing Fruit was a fruit coveted by saints. Everyone was after it.
At the sight of all the hungry gazes and twisted expressions within the crowd, it was easy to see that all the self-cultivators were craving for the fruit. No one was going to give up on it easily.
As Qingfeng Li walked forward, a short-haired self-cultivator blocked his path. The man said coldly, ”Run along. This is no place for you.”
Qingfeng Li sneered and said, ”Get out of my way or I will kill you.”
Hahahaha!!!!
The short-haired self-cultivator laughed and said arrogantly, ”Kid, do you know who I am? I am a disciple of the Sword-Emperor Sect. How dare you threaten me?”
Immediately afterward, the short-haired self-cultivator pulled out a long sword and pointed it at Qingfeng Li. His face was arrogant as could be, completely disregarding Qingfeng Li's existence.
With a flip of his wrist, Qingfeng Li pulled out his Fire Emperor Sword and struck it forward. With sharp flaming sword energy, Qingfeng Li cut the short-haired self-cultivator's long sword in half. The sharp sword energy continued onwards, striking the man's neck and leaving a bloody gash.
The short-haired self-cultivator reached out his palm and covered his neck in an attempt to hide the gash. To no avail, gushes of blood spewed out from his neck. He fell to the ground shortly after, twitching as his body went cold.
The sight of Qingfeng Li killing a Sword-Emperor Sect disciple in one strike shocked everyone in the crowd.
”Who is this man? Isn't he too arrogant? He dared to kill a disciple of the Sword-Emperor Sect?!”
”What are you blind? Don't you see that he's Qingfeng Li?”
