With Fu Yunxuan's words, "You can leave now, don't bother seeing me off!"
Yu Renjie was speechless.
The three magma lizards were as powerful as three top-ranked sect leaders. How could their group of Core Formation stage disciples possibly be a match for three magma lizards?
Yu Renjie sighed and said, "Yunxuan, there's no use in saying anything more. I just regret that my strength is too weak. Don't worry, I will definitely find a way. I'm going back to ask my father to help me."
Fu Yunxuan ignored him, knowing that if she brought the sect's top experts to seize the Fire Dragon Fruit, there wouldn't be enough time. Her father was seriously ill and wouldn't last a month; she had to obtain the Fire Dragon Fruit within seven days and then have it refined into a Warming Heart Pill by an alchemist to save his life. The Xuanming Elders' Xuanbing True Qi was too domineering; only the Warming Heart Pill could dispel the cold and detoxify, while other pills were powerless to save him.
Yu Renjie arrived full of enthusiasm, but returned dejected.
This was his first time visiting this Misty Forest. He hadn't known much about it before, and only after arriving did he realize that although the place was remote, it was rich in celestial energy, and many high-level and even peak-level celestial beasts of the third tier had been born there. He had underestimated this Misty Forest before.
Watching Yu Renjie and his group of ten leave, Jiang Boyue said, "Senior Sister! Now that the Qingcheng Mountain disciples have left, the seven of us are even less of a match for the Lava Lizards. What should we do now?"
Fu Yunxuan sighed, "Junior Brother Jiang, you should take everyone back! I'll try to see if we can steal the dragon fruit. If not, I'd rather die here!"
A female disciple, Ning Xue'er, said, "Senior Sister Yunxuan! I won't leave. I'll help you lure away that lava lizard."
Fu Yunxuan shook her head and said, "It's no use. Those magma lizards have a fixed living area and won't leave the dragon fruit tree easily! Besides, I just observed them. Those three magma lizards move extremely fast and can attack from a distance. Once you get into their high-temperature fireballs, you're sure to die."
Jiang Boyue said, “Senior Sister! We all know how you feel, but the Fire Dragon Fruit is an extremely precious immortal fruit. Even if the sect leader came in person, he wouldn’t be confident of taking it away. Uncle is already seriously injured, and the future of the Fu family depends entirely on you, Senior Sister. If something were to happen to you, wouldn’t the entire family decline?”
Ning Xue'er said, "That's right, Senior Sister Yunxuan! If you insist on staying here, I'll die with you! You absolutely cannot make me leave!"
Fu Yunxuan knew her junior sister's temperament well, and sighed, "Enough! Enough! Let's go back! After my father passed away, I became a nun and will never concern myself with worldly affairs again!"
Hearing this, everyone felt a wave of sorrow.
A male disciple named Ji Fa clenched his fists and said, "I only regret that our strength is too weak, and I only regret that the demonic sect is too rampant! How about the six of us split up and try to lure away that lava lizard! Senior sister, you take advantage of the chaos to rush forward, pick a fruit, and run!"
Fu Yunxuan shook her head and said, "How can I let you take such a risk! You all have your own families! If you sacrifice everyone for me, even if you save my father's life, how can I be at peace with myself?"
Just then, a tremor resounded from the forest. A gigantic magma lizard, twenty meters long, slowly crawled toward the dragon fruit tree.
The crowd watched from a distance in the dense forest, filled with terror.
This 20-meter-long magma lizard is probably already a peak third-tier immortal beast, and might even be breaking through to the fourth tier!
What's most terrifying is that this giant lava lizard has six pairs of wings, so it can fly!
Fu Yunxuan's face showed a look of despair. She understood that with this terrifying peak third-tier magma lizard in the fray, even if the leaders of the two major sects, Brahma Valley and Qingcheng Mountain, came in person, they would not be its match, not to mention that there were also three high-level third-tier immortal beasts guarding the Fire Dragon Fruit Tree.
Jiang Boyue sighed softly, "There's no hope! This is a twelve-winged magma lizard. I never imagined such a monster could be born in this forest. To kill it, I'm afraid only a Nascent Soul stage Immortal Spirit expert can do it. I'm afraid no one below the Nascent Soul stage can slay this monster."
Disheartened, Fu Yunxuan said, "Go back! You all go straight back to the sect. I want to go home and see my father. Junior Brother Jiang, please send these two disciples of the Wuwei Sect back!"
Jiang Boyue nodded and said, "Don't worry, Senior Sister!"
The seven people looked sad and were about to leave.
Lin Caogen looked at the dragon fruit tree in the distance, then at the four enormous magma lizards, calculating in his mind that his black gold armor should be able to withstand their attacks, but its energy would only last for two minutes at most. If one of the magma lizards lashed him with its tail, even if he wasn't injured by the armor, he would still be sent flying and wouldn't be able to grab the dragon fruit. Moreover, after a few rounds of fighting with the magma lizards, the armor would probably run out of power!
"It's difficult! It's really difficult! These magma lizards have thick skin and tough flesh. Even with Du Yumei's Qinggang Sword in hand, I can't pierce their skin. Their only weakness might be their eyes, but even if the Black Gold Armor is fast, I can only blind one eye of a lizard at most. It's impossible to blind two."
Seeing Lin Caogen in a daze, Jiang Boyue said, "Young brother, we should go back! Four magma lizards are guarding the dragon fruit tree. No one in the entire Three Rings Continent can harvest it unless the leaders of the three major sects come out together and the elders provide full assistance."
Fu Yunxuan glanced at Lin Caogen and Du Yumei, then said to Du Yumei, "Little sister, we are destined to meet. After I have settled my family affairs, I will inform my master and see if I can take you to the Brahma Valley for cultivation. You should also go back to cultivate as soon as possible. Before your strength reaches the Core Formation stage, do not easily leave the mountain to train."
