Chapter 774 - An Illusion
“Haha, I caught you!” The black-armored man smiled coldly, raised his hand, and grabbed it savagely. The red net wound itself tightly around the red dragon as it roared and struggled, causing the red net to shake violently. “I expect nothing less from a battle spirit transformed from the blood-clotting fruit tree. It’s indeed extraordinary.”
The black-armored men smiled calmly and continued to walk forward. The mana on their bodies was mighty, forming a shield against the mist. Everyone in the Sun family and the Fan family stared wide-eyed at them.
“They’re so amazing. I can’t believe they subdued the battle spirit of the blood clotting fruit tree just like that!”
“This is terrifying! Even we from the four major families find it unbearable when entering the mist. Yet, they’re still able to maintain such a strong combat power.”
“They obviously came prepared with that red net and that formation. To have these kinds of means just proves that they’re extraordinary people!”
“Look! They’re making their way toward the blood-clotting fruit tree!”
Sun Mohai’s face was gloomy as he said in a low voice, “Fan Tong, you’ve opened the door to a dangerous foe! It’d be game over for all four major families if they were to take this tree away!”
“No, the three of you are finished, and my Fan family will become the largest family here!” Fan Tong laughed. Then, he continued taunting,” Sun Mohai, it’s too late for you to surrender now. I won’t make your life too miserable as long as you promise to become a vassal of the Fan family.”
Sun Mohai scoffed and said, “Dream on!”
His eyes flickered slightly, staring at the two black-armored men, trying to make sure that they would not rob them of the blood-clotting fruit tree. There was a slight chance of winning against the black-armored men if the Sun family joined forces with the Su and Tie family. It was unfortunate that the stupid Su family only sent three people and one cow in, which greatly diminished their chances of winning.
He frowned as his pupils shrank suddenly when he saw what was at the feet of the black-armored men. “That-that-that’s…” Sun Mohai never imagined that there would actually be a bunch of vines growing under the blood-clotting fruit tree. Red fruits were hanging from the vines, emitting blood-red light that flashed wildly.
This light surpassed that of the blood-clotting fruit, and its grade was obviously higher than that of the blood-clotting fruit. Just by looking at it, Sun Mohai felt his own blood flowing faster. It instinctively gave birth to a strong desire within him.
“It turns out that there’s another kind of fruit growing under the blood-clotting fruit tree!”
“My God, what kind of fruit is that? Why do I feel like my blood’s boiling.”
“It’s definitely a blood divine fruit that’s better than the blood-clotting fruit!”
“The four major families have been in control of this place for so many years, and yet, they’ve never been able to step into this mist. Never in a million years would I suspect there was something else in it!”
“It’s definitely an Ultimate Treasure! But someone else is getting their hands on it!”
Everyone was talking, looking at the fruit, gulping constantly from desire. Sun Mohai was even more distressed the veins on his forehead were bulging out and he was clenching his fists tightly.
The two men in black armor were overjoyed. “Hahaha, we’ve finally found the blood-filled fruit!” However, they did not realize that their eyes had unknowingly become crimson. They only felt that their blood was on fire from all the excitement
Suddenly, they felt that their bloodlines had evolved, turning into the dictator bloodline. The whole world was under their control and they could control life and death at will.
“Ah, so this is what the supreme bloodline feels like!” A powerful aura burst forth from their bodies, and when they looked up, they saw that the blood-filled seed had transformed into a battle spirit that was coming right at them.
“Too weak. A mere battle spirit like you can be suppressed with a flick of my wrist!” The black-armored man smiled contemptuously. Then, he raised his hand and suppressed it!
Outside the mist, everyone was dumbfounded, for what they saw was different than what the black-armored men experienced. The blood-filled fruit was right in front of them, but the men in black armor did not pick it up. Instead, they were frozen in place. Then, they started to laugh inexplicably before they began fighting each other.
It was the same with the eight cultivators behind them. They were killing each other with a frantic look on their faces. Their attacks were extremely terrifying.
“They must’ve fallen into some kind of illusion!”
“I knew it! There’s no way they could get the divine fruit so easily. The black-armored men don’t seem like they’re able to hold on either!”
“The Origins Pond of Holy Dimension is too unfathomably profound. It’s obviously not that easy to conquer!”
“I get it now! The blood-clotting fruit tree is guarded by a battle spirit, so of course, the blood-filled fruit also has a battle spirit, which just so happens to be this mist that can immerse them in an illusion!”
There were many different opinions, and the people who were the most excited were naturally the people in the Sun family. Sun Mohai’s expression relaxed as he stroked his beard. He smiled at Fan Tong and said, “Fan Tong, it seems like the people you brought aren’t going to last much longer.”
Fan Tong looked gloomy and said nothing. Just when the black-armored men were slaughtering each other, the red dragon took the opportunity to break free from the red net. It shook its colossal body and swept toward them with fury!
The two black-armored men were severely injured. They were sent flying upside down like cannonballs while the other eight were instantly crushed into powder. The two black-armored men, who were so arrogant not long ago, fell to the ground with a heavy thud as they spat out a mouthful of blood. The wounds of their bodies made them look pitiful and miserable. It only then did they snap out of their illusion.
“Gah! No! Where did my dictator bloodline
go?”
“How can I be injured? Isn’t my cultivation already at its peak?”
“I clearly felt the pure power in my blood, how could it be an illusion? No!”
The previous experience made them more determined to get their hands on the blood-filled fruit. However, no matter how hard they tried, and even if they remained vigilant or used their trump cards, they were still unable to pass through the mist. Again and again, they returned to square one, sustaining more injuries on their bodies.
“Dammit! This is getting ridiculous!”
The two black-armored men exchanged glances, and one of them said in a low voice, “It seems like we’re left with no choice but to contact Master Thunder and let him handle this.”
However, at this moment, the blood-clotting fruit tree that had been quiet suddenly trembled. Then, four blood-clotting fruits fell from the tree and turned into four beams of light which then flew toward a particular direction.
“What’s happening? The blood-clotting fruits are obviously not ripe yet!” “What’s going on? Why did the fruit move by itself? Where are they flying to?”.
Everyone’s eyes followed the blood-clotting fruit, and they could do nothing but watch helplessly as the fruits flew to the side of the three people and one cow who had just arrived.
