Chapter 194 - Arc 12: Ruyi Xianzhuang | Chapter 194: Immortal Fruit

Translator: Lynn

In an instant, all the cultivators present had their attention fixed on Yun Lie.

They were aware that individuals on the Tianlong list held great potential, but they didn’t antic.i.p.ate Yun Lie being equivalent to the worth of hundreds of thousands of people!

Naturally, people were astonished.

However, several powerful ent.i.ties hidden in the void nodded in approval. From their perspective, Yun Lie surpa.s.sed everyone in terms of his quick reflexes, ingenious technique, and keen observation. It was reasonable for him to claim a significant portion. However, they didn’t expect Yun Lie not only to claim a significant portion but for it to account for half of the total number of seeds, surprising them.

The female cultivator was also in a daze for a long time before she continued reading the numbers.

There were one or two with several thousand, but with Yun Lie ahead, they seemed overshadowed, unable to capture everyone’s attention like those in the front.

When the recitation concluded, Mu Wuxin’s phantom reappeared in the air.

She delicately raised her hands, and eighteen beams of light shot out and landed in the hands of some cultivators.

All the cultivators knew what this was, and they hastily looked up, eager to see.

But the object fell so swiftly that no one could clearly see it.

Yun Lie extended his hand and caught one in time. His hand was cool, and it was a jade box.

They heard Mu Wuxin say, “The Immortal fruit goes to eighteen young heroes, and the other people’s Immortal Sacred Tree seeds are their own. It’s a way of conveying the goodwill of Ruyi Xianzhuang.”

Many cultivators felt happy upon hearing these words.

Most of them obtained some G.o.dwood seeds, and they knew these G.o.dwood seeds wouldn’t be taken back by the Immortal Village. It was just a tacit understanding. Hearing the explicit meaning of the owner’s words now, they felt more at ease.

Many people quickly stowed away the Immortal Sacred Tree seeds, while some were trying to locate the whereabouts of the Immortal fruit.

Some naturally wanted to gather more information, but others aimed to clearly identify the target, either planning or laying ambushes, attempting to s.n.a.t.c.h it.

Such behavior wasn’t allowed in the Immortal Villa, but once outside, it was acceptable—even if this move was a bit sneaky. After all, the Immortal fruit was extraordinary; one couldn’t easily give up! So all the cultivators scanned with their spiritual senses, and they knew who had the Immortal Fruit in their hands. Just looking at it made them quite frustrated.

In this Immortal Fruit Conference, the biggest winner was undoubtedly the Wuling Immortal Sect.

They came with twelve Golden Core Daoists, and ten of them acquired Immortal Fruits. One sect claimed over half of them. However, being the second-rank immortal sect with the highest status in the Eastern Territory, they had many capable individuals in the sect. Although others were jealous, they were convinced.

Following them was the Xiaoshui Immortal Sect, obtaining three Immortal Fruits.

Five fourth-rank sects, each acquired one.

By this calculation, none fell into the hands of casual cultivators, and no small sects stood out to s.n.a.t.c.h one. However, this made it difficult for others to get involved.

Hence, those with nefarious intentions could only harbor resentment in their hearts. Regardless of how they plotted, they put it aside.

However, the sect that obtained such a rare item couldn’t be stingy. Many Golden Core Daoists either displayed or maintained a good att.i.tude, and they opened the jade boxes one after another, allowing other real people who came to observe a look.

Xu Ziqing was also very curious, but he didn’t need to join the crowd. He simply moved closer to his senior brother.

Different from Ou Mubai and others, Yun Lie exuded a strong murderous aura, overpowering the crowd and dissuading cultivators from approaching to jest with him. Only Xu Ziqing was accustomed to being near Yun Lie and had no fear.

He raised his head and asked softly, “Brother, may I take a look?”

Yun Lie nodded slightly, flexed his fingers, and gently lifted the lid of the box.

The Immortal fruit was held within this crystal jade box.

It was about the length of a thumb, shaped like a teardrop, and glistened in white. Its fragrance was alluring, like a ball of jade paste, full of color and resembling a piece of coagulated fat.

Such a meticulously crafted fruit, seemingly a divine creation, was a marvel of heaven and earth. Just the scent held numerous benefits. If consumed… one could only imagine the effect.

Xu Ziqing also caught a whiff of an exceptionally pure fragrance that seemed to permeate his very being, instilling a comforting sensation throughout his body. The primordial liquid in his dantian surged with vitality and vigor due to this.

The sensation immediately provoked a desire to consume the fruit, but Xu Ziqing quickly regained composure, averted his gaze, and quelled this urge.

He smiled wryly and said, “It’s true that my strength is limited, and it’s challenging to control.”

Glancing at the numerous cultivators around him, those above the Golden Core stage swiftly suppressed the greed and urge to seize. Those at a similar level of cultivation as Xu Ziqing gradually regained their sobriety with his guidance.

The adage “a rare treasure tempts hearts” holds true because it inherently possesses a seductive power, causing people to struggle with their emotions. Only cultivators who can introspect and exercise caution can prevent the birth of inner demons.

Unbeknownst to them, these Immortal fruits had already captured everyone’s attention.

Suddenly, a voice echoed from above, speaking about matrimonial prospects.

As everyone looked up, they saw the wandering cultivators who had come to celebrate their birthdays sitting cross-legged in mid-air, observing the compet.i.tion and rewards below with smiles. There were also a few unfamiliar yet charismatic female cultivators sitting upright and graceful.

In the higher void, a few figures loomed, all of whom were prominent figures from Ruyi Immortal Village.

The voice, seemingly invisible, possessed a special allure: “The fruits have been distributed, and now, young disciples, if any of you are fond of our cultivators, feel free to approach them. If you’re willing to marry, the owner will bestow an Immortal fruit as a dowry… Senior sister, what’s your take on this?” she said, followed by a soft laughter. “Oh, yes, senior sister, you wouldn’t show favoritism, would you?”

It was Yu Nongqing inviting her envoy to seek potential spouses.

Mu Wuxin responded calmly, “The Twelve Ruyi Envoys are all exceptional female disciples of the sect, and the owner of this village will treat them equally.”

If it were only Yu Nongqing suggesting, the heroes might have hesitated a bit. However, since Mu Wuxin dared to affirm this publicly, it implied that even if they married the envoy, they would still receive the Immortal fruit.

Hence, some real people were indecisive. Although they didn’t appreciate the demonstrations of the envoys, the allure of obtaining the Immortal fruit, which could make a significant difference in their Nascent Soul and Golden Elixir cultivations, was undeniable.

The numerous cultivators in front were swayed, and Yu Nongqing displayed a hint of smugness. She glanced at Mu Wuxin, her brows slightly raised, and her eyes twinkling.

Mu Wuxin maintained a stoic expression, her eyes half-closed, unruffled by her demeanor.

Observing this, Yu Nongqing grew a little disinterested and s.h.i.+fted her gaze downward again.

At this moment, the twelve female cultivators on the elevated stone platform descended gracefully, each with an exquisite appearance, akin to fairies in the wind, radiating their unique charm and allure.

Upon landing, some cultivators approached them for a chat.

For a while, some were still captivated by the Immortal fruits at the Immortal Fruit Conference, while others were drawn to the enchanting beauties.

The Golden Core Daoists who obtained the fruit noticed the increasing number of male and female cultivators at this gathering. Consequently, they each stored away the Immortal fruit. Although they weren’t concerned about any trouble arising under the watchful eyes of the two Mahayana cultivators, the Immortal Fruit was exceedingly precious. Even a slight mishap would cause great distress.

Yun Lie gently closed his palms, causing the jade box to vanish.

Xu Ziqing understood that his senior brother had stored it safely, so he simply smiled.

Soon, many male and female cultivators formed groups, and numerous real individuals graciously interacted with the Twelve Ruyi Envoys. They offered the Immortal Sacred Tree seeds or some magical treasures they had acquired, making them smile.

If the enchanting ladies accepted, they allowed the individual to accompany them. If they offered a gift in return, they were willing to establish a friends.h.i.+p. If the two got along well, they could discuss marriage. A delightful scene indeed.

The Yunu Envoys maintained an air of aloofness, their interactions with people reserved, yet they clandestinely cast glances, seeking out someone they were interested in.

On the contrary, the Sunu Envoy displayed charm and graciousness, readily accepting any gift presented to her. If she took a liking to someone, she would lean in, her laughter chiming sweetly at the sight of those handsome real individuals blus.h.i.+ng.

Both of them embodied an exquisite aspect of femininity, a sight that many Golden Core Daoists hadn’t encountered even among their senior and junior sect sisters. This rosy-hued atmosphere was a novelty.

With so many enchanting Ruyi beauties present, it was likely that not all would remain unaffected upon seeing them; they were captivating.

Observing the increasingly ambiguous ambiance, Xu Ziqing felt a touch of awkwardness. Although he admired his senior brother, he only held unrequited love in his heart, making him feel somewhat uncomfortable. After pondering, he glanced around, but his gaze didn’t settle on his senior brother.

Yet, in his scrutiny, he noticed several of the twelve Ruyi Envoys were fixated on someone.

They were gazing at his senior brother.

Xu Ziqing paused. He understood that many Golden Core Daoists had vied for the G.o.d tree seeds just now, and these Ruyi Envoys were keenly observing everyone’s performance.

Among these cultivators, his senior brother was a top-notch candidate, possessing a sharp physique and formidable strength. It was no wonder they were taking him seriously. However, even though he knew this well, he couldn’t find happiness.

In a mix of sourness and self-deprecation, Xu Ziqing was momentarily taken aback, only to hear his senior brother’s voice.

“Ziqing, come with me.”

Xu Ziqing snapped back to reality and saw his senior brother, dressed in white, walking toward him. His sleeves billowed, s.h.i.+elding him from all those prying eyes. A sense of relief washed over him, and he promptly replied, “Yes, s.h.i.+xiong.”

Yun Lie advanced, heading straight for a secluded spot where no one else was.

Xu Ziqing followed closely and arrived there with him shortly.

Amidst the sacred tree’s presence, many male and female cultivators were forming friends.h.i.+ps, warming up to each other. Meanwhile, the two siblings chose to remain in a quiet s.p.a.ce, separate from the rest.

Xu Ziqing stood silently, feeling a deep sense of peace within.

Yun Lie raised his hand and placed something into Xu Ziqing’s palm.

Xu Ziqing was taken aback and looked down—it was a storage ring, evidently br.i.m.m.i.n.g with G.o.d tree seeds. This surprised him once more. “Brother, this?”

Yun Lie replied, “This holds no use for me. You once absorbed the essence of Yimu and have the Qi of Yin Wood within you. These are Yang seeds, aiding in harmonizing Yin and Yang.”

A warm feeling filled Xu Ziqing’s heart. Useless to his senior brother? Not at all. Even if it couldn’t be utilized personally, it held substantial value for exchange with other treasures. He thought to himself: how can I not admire senior brother when he treats me with such kindness? Even if his senior brother harbors no romantic intentions, such benevolence is deserving of his affection.

With these thoughts, Xu Ziqing stored the ring away and was about to say something.

But in the next moment, a pungent scent of blood reached his nostrils.

Startled, Xu Ziqing turned around suddenly!

Simultaneously, Yun Lie’s gaze bore straight ahead, a trace of coldness in his eyes.
