Chapter 55 Fiendish Fruit, Becoming the Sixth



The word "forgiveness" had never crossed Li Ming's mind.

According to the teachings of my past life, forgiving you is God's business, and my task is to send you to see God.

There is no God in this world, but there might be something similar to the King of Hell.

Killing two people grants 3000 life points.

Li Ming looked helpless. What a bunch of rotten fish and shrimp.

Randomly select one person to steal their [Comprehension] attribute.

As expected.

I felt nothing.

At this point, seizing a lower-level entry of the same type would have a negligible impact on Li Ming's life; it would only reduce his life energy during the next advancement.

However, there is a rare entry in the other person's entry.

[Poison Skills (White)]: [Has some understanding of certain types of poisons and has mastered some methods of making and using poisons.]

In this world, there are relatively few people who possess this skill.

I've never encountered this before.

Li Ming was also just trying something new.

After acquiring the [Poison Technique] entry, Li Ming's mind was flooded with memories about the making and use of poison.

But... what kind of poisons are these?!

Li Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly.

This guy doesn't know any decent poisons... most of them are sedatives or drugs that stimulate certain desires.

It has absolutely no effect on martial artists with high cultivation levels.

He's overthinking it.

He should have realized it sooner; this guy was no decent person, so how could he possibly have any decent poison?

Seeing the change in Li Ming's expression, Qin Yun assumed he was worried about the Wang family settling scores later, and said:

"It's alright, Brother Li. As long as the two of us don't say anything, this matter won't be exposed."

Li Ming glanced at Qin Yun, offered no explanation, and nodded:

"Yes, let's hurry up and leave. These monsters are especially sensitive to the smell of blood."

Li Ming then searched the two men and found a number of pills on them, which was an extra bonus.

Then he led Qin Yun to a secluded cave.

This place has a good geographical location, easy to defend and difficult to attack, located on high ground, making it a good place to rest.

He discovered it by chance on his way here.

"Is Brother Li alright?"

"I have a few bottles of Qi-restoring pills here, you can take them and use them."

Qin Yun was somewhat worried.

She noticed some dust on the hem of Li Ming's clothes. There were many malevolent blood beasts blocking the way in this secret realm, and Li Ming must have encountered quite a few on his way here.

Even though he is unparalleled in combat power, he has probably expended a lot of his true energy.

Thinking of this, Qin Yun felt a warmth in his heart.

Li Ming shook his head:

"It's alright, it's not a big problem."

"You should recover your inner energy first. I will stay here and protect you until you have fully recovered before we make further plans."

Li Ming then didn't hide the fact that he could restore his true energy and explained it briefly.

This tells Qin Yun to relax and not to overthink things.

After all, the two are currently teammates, and Li Ming doesn't need to hide something that's so easy to find out.

After hearing this, Qin Yun nodded slightly, having no doubt about Li Ming's words.

He immediately took out the pill, swallowed it, and then circulated his internal energy to digest it.

...

Somewhere in the Bloodbath Secret Realm.

"It's over, it's all over."

A cloaked man wailed.

Looking at the blood all over the ground, even the corpses had been devoured by the blood beasts roaming around, leaving only some tattered clothes and a pile of debris.

Among them were the identity tokens of these two individuals, engraved with their names.

It was this very thing that allowed the two brothers to locate this place.

Seeing this scene, the cloaked man knew exactly what was happening.

"How could those two guys die so quickly? Brother, this money won't be easy to get!"

The man addressed as "Big Brother," wearing a blue mask, calmly said:

"It's fine, we've already taken the deposit, so we can just not return it, right?"

"This secret realm not only contains malevolent energy, but also nurtures many treasures. Who cares who killed those two idiots?"

"Walk."

The masked man's words were full of contempt for the two members of the Wang family, and a cold smile even appeared on the corner of his mouth under the mask.

The two men were hired by the Wang family. As soon as they entered the secret realm, they quickly broke through to the Golden Core Realm. Unexpectedly, not long after, these two good-for-nothings died.

The two young men from the Wang family were polite on the surface, but secretly they didn't take them seriously, often making small moves and completely ignoring their orders.

He'd been annoyed for a long time; so what if those two people died?

Anyway, they did their best.

Once they leave the secret realm, they'll immediately leave Cangzhou. What can the Wang family do to them then?

...

Seeing that Qin Yun had recovered, he got up and went outside to check on the situation.

Li Ming followed and asked:

"Should we meet up with the rest of the Qin family?"

"No need, they're not on our side."

Qin Yun shook his head and began to explain.

The Qin family had a total of five spots, and she naturally only occupied one of them. The original plan was to go in with another member of the Qin family to find superior evil energy, and she even invited three experts to escort her.

However, because of her impromptu decision, Li Ming was involved, which caused some conflict with the plan. Several experts felt slighted and started causing trouble. In the end, it cost a lot of money to settle the matter.

If they go again, the other party probably won't give them a friendly look.

Li Ming agreed after hearing this.

Qin Yun also considered his feelings; naturally, he didn't want to act with too many people.

After all, with more people involved, distributing the benefits would be too troublesome.

Li Ming suggested, "That's fine. We can take advantage of this time to thoroughly search for the treasures within the secret realm."

The appearance of top-grade evil energy is unpredictable, usually occurring a few days later, and it causes a great stir.

Therefore, during this period, some people will conserve their energy and wait for the right opportunity.

Those who have the resources or ambition for such things will choose to search for treasures.

Qin Yun nodded and replied without hesitation:

"Before coming here, I also did a lot of research. There are many good things in the Blood Killing Secret Realm that are not available outside. If I remember correctly, if you go north from here, there is a Bane Fruit Tree."

"The evil energy fruit that grows on it is of great help to martial artists in condensing evil energy, and can also improve the cultivation of martial artists in the Condensing Qi Realm. It is also of great help to body tempering, and it is even rumored to improve the physical aptitude of a person. Such a treasure cannot be found in the outside world."

"However, places with such treasures are often guarded by extremely powerful blood beasts with malevolent energy, which is quite troublesome."

"It must be a test set by that powerful being."

Li Ming said softly, "Let's go take a look first. I'm sure we're not the only ones who know this."

"However, it would be best if we were the first to discover it."

"Such a malevolent blood beast would probably drop high-quality malevolent energy crystals."

The opinions were unanimous.

The two immediately got to work.

Not long after.

Led by Qin Yun, Li Ming arrived at a valley.

A large crowd had already gathered not far away, and they were arguing fiercely.

Sure enough, someone beat them to it.

However, Li Ming pondered that these people probably didn't succeed either.

After all, the guardian of such a treasure is far more powerful than the small fry you encounter elsewhere.

Li Ming did not go over immediately, but instead signaled Qin Yun to observe the situation first.

"I'll conceal my presence and observe secretly. Don't rush."

"good."

...

A clearing at the mouth of a valley.

Gu Cheng, carrying a gleaming sword, suddenly stood up. With his striking features, handsome appearance, and righteous aura, he pointed inside and said:

"Everyone, please stop arguing and listen to me."

As soon as he finished speaking, some people disagreed.

Why should I listen to you?

Then, a powerful burst of true energy erupted from Gu Cheng's body.

"A Grandmaster of the Golden Core stage?"

The man immediately shut up.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Gu Cheng spoke up:

"Everyone knows what the Evil Qi Fruit is, and the Evil Qi Fruit tree is inside."

"However, it is guarded by an extremely ferocious blood beast with malevolent energy. Some people have already discovered that its strength far exceeds that of the Condensation Realm. Even I would find it difficult to deal with, and it will not stray too far from the tree."

"How about I lead the way to lure them out, and you all assist by taking action to restrain them? Then, two of us can take advantage of this opportunity to pick the fruit, what do you say?"

"However, I and the two fruit pickers will get more fruit."

If everyone works together, this plan could be feasible.

Just as everyone was pondering.

Someone asked, "Then who will go and collect them?"

Gu Cheng smiled and said, "Of course, it's by drawing lots."

"This... doesn't feel quite right."

Gu Cheng smiled and said, "Then, do you all have any other good ideas?"

"this……"

For a moment, the man was speechless.

"Brother Gu is so generous! I think this plan is excellent."

Some people voiced their agreement.

The others didn't have any good ideas either, so they looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

His gaze toward Gu Cheng was complicated.

He's a good person!

The most dangerous person in this plan is very obvious.

First, the person who lured them.

This monster is incredibly powerful and must be quite fast.

If the person who lured the attacker hadn't dodged the attack, they would probably have lost their life.

The second option is to be randomly chosen to pick fruit. After all, who knows if the people involved will be reliable? If the monster is allowed to return, the outcome will be dire.

To some extent, it means entrusting one's life to others.

After a round of drawing lots, the two people chosen to pick the fruit remained expressionless, their thoughts unknown.
