Chapter 921 Life-Giving Mystic Fruit
Xiao Ling raised his eyes to look at the blazing sun gradually setting in the west, and said calmly, "The Life-Giving Profound Spirit Fruit only appears in the world when the sun and moon meet, and the time is almost here."
His gaze fell on the two women beside him, his tone carrying a hint of leisurely amusement.
"It's quite a coincidence. With your current cultivation levels, this item is the most suitable treasure for you right now. You can take advantage of this opportunity to break through the shackles and successfully step into the Life Profound Realm. It's truly a stroke of luck."
As the sun sank deeper into the western sky, a crescent moon, bathed in soft light, slowly revealed its outline on the other side of the horizon.
At the very moment when the sun and moon shone together and yin and yang merged, the primordial energy of heaven and earth deep within the Xuanling Mountain suddenly surged and trembled violently, and the earth trembled slightly.
The once perfectly still and clear lake suddenly rippled, and layers of auspicious light slowly rose and spread from the small island in the center of the lake, swirling and shrouded in mist, exuding a vast and spiritual aura.
"The Life-Giving Spirit Fruit is about to appear in the world!"
Upon seeing this, Lin Qingtan was overjoyed and quickly lowered her voice to whisper, her tone filled with barely concealed eagerness and delight.
Jiang Yinyin, standing to the side, was also observing the changes in the center of the lake with great interest, her eyes filled with anticipation.
Having followed Xiao Ling around on ordinary days, the two had already seen countless rare treasures, divine pills and elixirs. The rare and precious materials that ordinary cultivators could not obtain were also within their reach.
Yet, the feeling of personally encountering the opportunities of heaven and earth and waiting for the birth of a treasure is still unique and cannot be compared with ordinary external things.
The deafening roar continued, the island in the middle of the lake trembled more violently, and the shimmering light rising from the ground became increasingly bright and dazzling. Before long, fine cracks crisscrossed and quickly spread across the entire island.
Following closely behind, an ancient tree, entirely emerald green and resembling a natural jade carving, slowly emerged from the thick soil.
The ancient tree stretched out its body like a newly born spirit, its lush branches and leaves unfolding one after another. Circles of emerald green light, full of vitality, slowly rippled from the tree trunk, and the surrounding area was enveloped in an extremely rich life force.
Endless green light rapidly gathered and swirled around the ancient tree, making the four points of light particularly dazzling.
A series of soft rustling sounds rang out, and as the spiritual light became more solid and intense, the dazzling points of light around gradually faded away and completely transformed into substance. Four spiritual fruits, with a lustrous color and a vibrant green color, appeared on the branch. They were none other than the rare and precious Life-Giving Profound Spirit Fruits.
"There are actually four Life-Giving Mystic Fruits!"
Lin Qingtan gazed at the solidified, verdant spiritual fruit on the branch, her bright eyes filled with even greater joy.
Jiang Yinyin's gaze was fixed on the spirit tree that had sprouted from the ground in the center of the lake. Her face full of doubt, she asked softly,
"Is this the Life-Giving Profound Spirit Fruit? However, such a top-tier spiritual treasure should be accompanied by a guardian beast. Why hasn't the other party come to take it away yet?"
"You may not know this, but this Life-Giving Spirit Tree can only produce a maximum of nine spirit fruits. Only when all nine are fully formed is the fruit considered completely ripe and at its best," Lin Qingtan explained softly, then a lively smile appeared on her pretty face.
"It seems that the guardian beast has been patiently waiting, hoping for the day when the spiritual fruit is fully ripe. It's just a pity that we have discovered such a rare treasure, and it will never live to see that day."
As soon as they finished speaking, the two women turned their gazes to the clear lake in the mountains. Beneath the deep water, a striking crimson hue was faintly visible, particularly eye-catching.
As if sensing the presence of a stranger on the shore, the lake surface suddenly churned, towering waves crashed up, and a huge black shadow burst out of the water.
Its enormous body stretched across the lake, casting a shadow over everything within a hundred feet, and a fierce and violent aura swept across the surrounding area in an instant.
This beast possesses three ferocious heads, its form faintly exuding the aura of the dragon race, yet its entire body is filled with a violent and malevolent energy. It is none other than the overlord of Xuanling Mountain, a three-headed demonic dragon with the cultivation of the Lesser Completion of the Life Profound Realm.
Its body was hundreds of feet long, covered entirely in scarlet scales as hard as cold iron armor. With the slightest movement of its massive body, an earth-shattering, boundless force was unleashed, its power extremely awe-inspiring.
The three ferocious, enormous dragon heads resembled the heads of giant snakes, each topped with a sharp, single horn that shimmered with a chilling, cold light, its sharp edge seemingly capable of easily tearing through the void.
The three-headed demonic dragon swept its senses across the three, instantly discerning their cultivation levels. In its eyes, Lin Qingtan and Jiang Yinyin were merely at the peak of the Nirvana Realm, utterly insignificant.
As for the young man in front of it, he was completely still, with no trace of energy emanating from him. He seemed to have low cultivation and a weak body, which did not arouse any fear in it.
It was confident that dealing with these three would be a piece of cake, and it was certain that these people had somehow found out about the Life-Giving Profound Spirit Fruit and had rashly come to covet the opportunity.
This is a perfect opportunity to establish authority and teach these arrogant intruders a lesson, so that the creatures of the surrounding lands will know that the treasures of Xuanling Mountain are not to be trifled with by others.
"How dare you disturb my meditation and even covet the Life-Giving Profound Spirit Fruit! You dare to covet what belongs to me? You are truly a bunch of ignorant fools. Today, I will make you my meal!"
The three-headed demonic dragon's pair of scarlet, ferocious vertical pupils were fixed on Xiao Ling and his two companions on the shore. Its enormous, blood-red basin slightly opened, and a low, chilling roar echoed across the lake, filled with boundless rage.
"You vile, stinking dragon, you are truly arrogant! Today, I, this young lady, will teach you a lesson!"
Jiang Yinyin frowned slightly, her childish voice tinged with annoyance, and she scolded him in a coquettish tone.
Lin Qingtan, who was standing to the side, also put away her previous leisurely demeanor. Her expression became serious, and her aura quietly gathered. She had already entered a state of high alert and preparation for battle.
Xiao Ling slowly retreated behind the two women, crossed his arms over his chest, and remained calm, seemingly observing the situation.
Seeing that the young man had retreated directly behind the two girls, the three-headed demonic dragon became even more certain of its belief that the young man's cultivation was definitely insufficient and that he could only rely on the two girls beside him.
Under these circumstances, it had no more scruples, and its ferocity grew even stronger. It regarded the three people in front of it as its own, and thus looked down on them even more.
Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Qingtan and Jiang Yinyin immediately took the initiative to launch an attack.
"The power of life and death, the divine light of life and death!"
With a clear, low shout from Jiang Yinyin, the vast and boundless power of life and death surged and gathered rapidly in her two fair and tender palms, instantly condensing into a state of perfect perfection. Immediately afterwards, a beam of divine light, black and white blended with an eerie and extraordinary aura, carrying boundless power, shot straight toward the three-headed demonic dragon.
"Demon Lotus of Devouring Evil".
At the same time, Lin Qingtan beside her also made her move in an instant, without the slightest hesitation. Her jade hands flew, her ten fingers swiftly forming intricate and profound hand seals, her gestures flowing like the wind, and obscure magic seals taking shape in an instant.
As the hand seals were activated, the entire lake surface beneath their feet suddenly trembled. Boundless, chilling, and malevolent energy surged forth from the depths of the lake, and black mist gathered wildly and rapidly coalesced in mid-air.
In the blink of an eye, an enormous, pitch-black, and mysterious Devouring Lotus materialized in mid-air, its body shimmering with a dark and chilling aura, and exuding a captivating and sinister presence.
boom!
The enormous black lotus suddenly burst into bloom, its petals unfolding and closing with an overwhelming aura that suppressed all directions. It rose abruptly from beneath the three-headed demonic dragon, instantly enveloping and imprisoning its massive body!
Faced with the sudden pincer attack from the two women, the three-headed demonic dragon maintained its arrogant and confident demeanor, completely disregarding the two attacks.
With a casual wave of its giant claw, a ferocious, cold, jet-black trident suddenly materialized, carrying fierce brute force as it directly blocked the incoming divine light of life and death.
But the next second, something unexpected happened!
The black and white intertwined divine light of life and death was extremely fierce and powerful. It ignored the trident's defensive barrier, tore through the weapon barrier, and pierced through the trident's body. It also pierced through its giant claw arm with unstoppable force!
A sharp pain instantly swept through his body. The three-headed demonic dragon's pupils shrank, and a sense of disbelief and astonishment rose in his heart. He didn't even have time to react to why these two Nirvana Realm attacks were so powerful.
At the same time, the void beneath them trembled violently!
The Devouring Lotus that Lin Qingtan had conjured was in full bloom, and a tidal wave of chilling Yin energy surged forth, tightly binding its massive body.
The chilling, bone-piercing evil energy was all-pervasive, constantly invading its limbs and bones, frantically eroding and stripping away the pure Yuan energy flowing within its body, causing its cultivation to continuously dissipate and deteriorate.
Before it could break free from the binding force of the evil energy, a violent wave of evil energy suddenly surged from the depths of the lotus heart, sweeping upwards and slamming into its three dragon heads!
A strange and chilling malevolent force pierced through his mind, and the three-headed demonic dragon felt a sudden dizziness as waves of intense vertigo swept over his mind, causing his movements to become stiff and sluggish!
Taking advantage of the moment when the three-headed demonic dragon was briefly dizzy and its movements were sluggish, Lin Qingtan suddenly soared into the sky.
"Ice Dragon's Roar!"
A cold shout suddenly resounded through the sky, and the Yuan Power around him suddenly surged out, with rolling Yin Sha Power gushing out all over the sky.
Endless black mist suddenly condensed and churned from the void, intertwining with extremely cold black ice energy, quickly outlining a ferocious and domineering black dragon phantom behind her.
A dark dragon coiled in the sky, its entire body covered in icy black frost, its black mist swirling around it, exuding a chilling aura. A dragon's roar that shook the lake resounded loudly, its ferocious power overwhelming!
The next instant, the pitch-black dragon shadow, carrying endless icy demonic power, tore through the sky and fiercely pounced down towards the three-headed demonic dragon trapped below!
At this moment, the three-headed demonic dragon had barely managed to break free from the dizziness in its sea of consciousness, and its awareness was just beginning to recover. However, the thunderous strike was already upon it, and it had no way to dodge it.
Boom—!
The dark dragon shadow slammed down onto its massive body, and the violent icy energy exploded and raged instantly!
At the same time, the Devouring Lotus below, which imprisoned the demon, suddenly closed up, its layers of pitch-black petals tightly binding the dragon's body.
The lotus heart surged forth with a monstrous wave of malevolent energy, which merged with the icy dragon's might descending from the sky. Endless chilling demonic energy and bone-corroding malevolent power crushed and raged wildly!
The entire lake was swept by howling winds, black ice fragments flew everywhere, a terrifying energy storm swept in all directions, and the biting evil power was everywhere, suppressing the three-headed demonic dragon so that its whole body trembled violently, and its huge body completely sank under the double attack of evil power!
Seeing that the dragon's body was firmly suppressed by the Ice Fiend Dragon's might and unable to move, Jiang Yinyin's eyes narrowed, and she decided to end the battle there.
A surge of immense energy coursed through her body, and she parted her lips slightly, letting out a clear shout that echoed across the lake:
"Life and Death, Decay Domain!"
As the shout fell, the entire space and time seemed to freeze!
Mountains, rivers, lakes, and the fierce winds all stood still, and all things in heaven and earth were frozen in place. Only Jiang Yinyin stood in the void, with a deathly aura of dark blue and black swirling around her, transcending this confined space and time.
The vital energy formed a phantom butterfly shadow behind her. As the phantom butterfly wings suddenly expanded and stretched, countless mysterious spiritual lights swirled and swayed around it.
Beneath the ground, strange, lifeless flowers sprouted from the soil, their winding, supple, dark vines climbing up the air and gently wrapping around her forearm, exuding an eerie aura of desolation and annihilation.
The immense power of life and death gathered in his palm, and a cold and desolate scythe of life and death slowly materialized and appeared in the world.
Jiang Yinyin gripped the sickle handle tightly with both hands and struggled to raise the giant sickle high above her head, the blade instantly growing to several feet in length.
Layers of annihilating flames, interwoven with blue and black, coiled around the blade, while iridescent butterfly particles danced and swirled around it. Every inch of its sharpness exuded a terrifying pressure that could devour everything and wither away all life.
The next moment!
Jiang Yinyin spun around at lightning speed, carrying the power of the entire desolate and withered domain, and slashed down with a thunderous roar!
A gigantic, crescent-shaped, blue-black blade of light tore through the void and crashed down!
Where the blade passed, space trembled violently, tearing open countless crisscrossing purple spatial rifts, and countless withered petals and colorful butterflies fluttered and danced in the air.
boom--!
The giant light blade crashed to the ground and exploded, unleashing a vast and powerful blue shockwave that spread out in a ring. The dark and profound withering magic circle rapidly expanded and spread from the point of impact, instantly enveloping the entire battlefield.
The three-headed demonic dragon trapped in the center of the domain was instantly nailed and imprisoned by the invisible power of life and death. Its huge body could not move an inch, and its entire body was covered with dense and crisscrossing patterns of annihilation. Its vitality, energy, and evil aura were all instantly sealed off and withered away layer by layer.
Once all the power has been released and the battle has ended.
The illusory image of butterfly wings spreading behind Jiang Yinyin slowly faded and disappeared, and petals fluttered down from the sky.
In the air, only scattered specks of pale blue light floated and swayed, while the vast, majestic, silent, and chilling pressure of life and death lingered in the heavens and earth for a long time, never dissipating.
After defeating the three-headed demonic dragon, Lin Qingtan and Jiang Yinyin floated down gently, landing steadily beside Xiao Ling. They then calmed their surging Yuan Power, their fierce and murderous aura returning to its usual docile state.
Seeing this, Xiao Ling smiled and gently patted the tops of the two girls' heads, his tone full of approval.
"Not bad, not bad. Your moves are steady and decisive, and your transitions between techniques are smooth and natural, showing that you have never slacked off in your daily training. Alright, now go and seize the opportunities that belong to you."
Upon hearing this, the two women nodded slightly, their eyes filled with lighthearted smiles. They gracefully soared into the air and landed in the center of the lake under the Life-Giving Mystic Tree.
Gazing at the four vibrant green and juicy Sheng Sheng Xuan Ling fruits on the branch, the two of them each raised their hands, gently plucked two fruits, and carefully put them away.
Having obtained this opportunity, the outcome is self-evident. Once this journey concludes, the two women will be able to use the immense life force of the Life-Giving Profound Spirit Fruit to break through the shackles of the Nirvana Realm's peak and successfully step into the Life Profound Realm, advancing their cultivation to a higher level.
