Wang Qingshan flicked his finger, and a wave of green sword energy swept out, shattering the red giant hand. Simultaneously, a thick green light barrier appeared around his body.
A giant blade, shimmering with white light, struck the green barrier. The barrier dented inwards but quickly returned to normal.
The green cloth bag enveloped the tenth Enlightenment Fruit and pulled it back into the bag.
After the tenth Enlightenment Fruit was plucked, the Grand Dao's sound disappeared. Wang Qingling and the other four had regained consciousness, their expressions varied.
"Hand over the Enlightenment Fruits; I only need one," said the man in the golden robe, who had cultivation at the True Immortal Great Perfection stage.
"We want them all. If you don't hand over the Enlightenment Fruits, you will be killed without mercy," Murong Yunshang said coldly.
If the Murong family could obtain all ten Enlightenment Fruits, they would certainly experience a surge in power. If one of their clansmen comprehended a supreme law, unifying the Tianchen Sea Domain would be no problem.
"Give them to you? What a joke. What we've obtained is ours," Wang Qingshan sneered. With a single hand gesture, the Golden Lin Sword flew back to him.
"What's this 'you' and 'us'? I gave them to you. Am I not here?" a tender male voice interjected.
Wang Qingshan and the others exchanged glances, their eyes falling on the Enlightenment Fruit tree.
"You can speak?" Murong Yunshang asked in surprise.
"Hmph, if I can choose to appear randomly in a certain place, why can't I speak?" the Enlightenment Fruit tree retorted, its voice rather childlike, its leaves swaying from side to side.
"Senior, why don't you visit our Murong family as a guest? Our Murong family is willing to support you and provide you with cultivation resources," Murong Yunshuo said sincerely. This Enlightenment Fruit tree had existed for at least 100 million years, making it at least a Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
"Support? Currently, there's no power in the Immortal Realm capable of supporting me. I go wherever I please; no one gets to tell me what to do. Consider yourselves lucky to have encountered me here this time," the Enlightenment Fruit tree spoke.
"I'm going to find them to play with now. Take care of yourselves. I hope we meet again next time."
After saying this, the Enlightenment Fruit tree glowed brightly with green light and vanished from its spot.
Wang Qingshan and the others exchanged bewildered glances. Who were these "them" the Enlightenment Fruit tree spoke of? Dao artifacts? Or other rare natural treasures?
"A Six-Colored Chaos Beast!" Wang Yingjie exclaimed.
As soon as he spoke, the ground began to shake violently, like an earthquake, with thick, long cracks appearing and dust billowing.
Wang Qingshan and the others remained unmoved. Neither side was willing to give up the Enlightenment Fruits.
"Hand over half of the Enlightenment Fruits, and we'll leave," Murong Yunshang stated.
"I want one!" said the man in the golden robe.
"Our Murong family's main force is already on the way. It would be better for you to hand over the Enlightenment Fruits. Otherwise, even if you escape this place, our family elders will still catch up to you once you leave Tianji City," Murong Yunshuo threatened.
Just as Wang Qingshan was about to speak, a loud beast roar echoed. Five Three-Colored Chaos Beasts, at the True Immortal Mid-stage, charged forward and pounced on them.
Wang Yingjie's right foot glowed with dazzling yellow light. The ground transformed from soil to sand, churning up dust, and a massive yellow earth wall instantly appeared, protecting them.
"Don't even think about leaving! Stay right there!" the man in the golden robe commanded. His body erupted in golden light, and he moved his fists, smashing them towards the yellow earth wall.
With a thunderous crash, the yellow earth wall shattered, and three beams of black light shot towards him.
A golden, shimmering armor appeared on the man's body. The three black beams struck the golden armor, and the man in the golden robe let out an agonizing shriek. His body went limp, and he collapsed, his eyes vacant and his face pale.
He had been hit by three Soul Extermination Fingers, his soul severely damaged, and he immediately lost all fighting capability.
A golden sword light swept out, cutting him in half, his Nascent Soul also cleaved in two.
On the other side, the yellow earth wall was smashed to pieces by a Three-Colored Chaos Beast.
A dragon's roar resounded, and a white dragon claw shot out, striking the Three-Colored Chaos Beast. The beast was sent flying backward, three terrifying bloody gashes appearing on its body.
Murong Yunshang and Murong Yunshuo were entangled by three Three-Colored Chaos Beasts. They quickly donned their Chaos Armor to protect their entire bodies, and the Three-Colored Chaos Beasts were temporarily unable to harm them.
Seizing this opportunity, Wang Qingshan and his four companions flew into a three-story green pavilion, with two Three-Colored Chaos Beasts pursuing them.
The Golden Lin Sword in Wang Qingshan's hand burst forth with dazzling golden light. He slashed at the void, and a sharp golden sword beam swept out, cutting the two Three-Colored Chaos Beasts in half as if slicing through vegetables.
"Don't even think about leaving!" Murong Yunshang exclaimed. She raised her right hand, and a red-glowing talisman flew out, instantly exploding to form a massive fire qilin. It radiated terrifying heat and charged directly towards the green pavilion.
A golden sword light and a golden saber light swept out, accurately striking the fire qilin's body.
With a deafening roar, the fire qilin's body exploded, transforming into a massive crimson sun that engulfed the entire estate, reducing numerous buildings to ashes.
Murong Yunshang and Murong Yunshuo, protected by their Chaos Armor, remained unharmed, but they were struggling somewhat to fend off the attacks of the Three-Colored Chaos Beasts.
Four black beams shot towards them. Just as they were about to dodge, four yellow giant hands emerged from the ground, lightning-fast, seizing their feet. Simultaneously, a powerful gravitational force emanated from the ground.
They had no way to evade and were each hit by two black beams, feeling as if their souls were being torn apart.
"Soul attack! This is the Soul Extermination Finger! Are you descendants of the Li family?" Murong Yunshang exclaimed.
There were many types of soul attacks, but this one closely resembled the Soul Extermination Finger.
Silence was their only answer. Two Four-Colored Chaos Beasts pounced forward, knocking them to the ground. Even with the protection of their Chaos Armor, they were pinned by the Chaos Beasts, completely helpless.
Four more black beams shot forth, accurately striking their bodies. The two screamed repeatedly as their souls suffered severe damage. Their reactions slowed, and they were torn to shreds by the Chaos Beasts, their Chaos Armor also destroyed.
The crimson firelight dissipated, leaving the entire estate razed to the ground. Wang Qingshan and his four companions were nowhere to be found.
The Six-Colored Chaos Beast rushed forward, sniffed a few times, but found no trace of Wang Qingshan and his four companions.
"Find them and destroy them," the Six-Colored Chaos Beast declared loudly. The other Chaos Beasts seemed to understand its words and scattered in all directions, searching for immortals within the city.
On a vast, boundless grassland, a golden, shimmering colossal ship swiftly soared through the sky. It was equipped with eight low-grade Immortal Extermination Cannons, and a team of cultivators stood on its deck, led by Murong Zhengxian.
As soon as Murong Yunshang encountered the emergence of Tianji City, she immediately notified them before entering the city to search for treasures.
Murong Zhengxian personally led the team, rushing towards the White Horse Mountain Range, hoping to arrive in time.
Murong Yuhe emerged from a cabin and quickly walked over to Murong Zhengxian, saying, "Something terrible has happened, Patriarch Zhengxian. The soul lamps of Patriarch Yunshang and Patriarch Yunshuo have extinguished, and Fellow Daoist Li's soul lamp has also gone out. It seems they met with an accident."
Murong Zhengxian frowned deeply and said, "Accelerate! I hope we can make it in time."
