Chapter 23 Purple Cloud Thunder Soul Fruit
The Black Abyss Lord was attacked by a suddenly appearing enemy, and his loyal Blue Demon followers immediately activated their invincible abilities and rushed into the battle.
However, their reaction was too late. Zi Wushiyi had already been severely injured. Even though he belatedly activated his invincible state, he could only be immune to subsequent attacks.
When the spirit lamp saw its companions begin to attack, it assumed they were planning to steal the treasure by surprise.
He didn't call out to his partner, Xiaobao, when he attacked, which clearly showed that he wanted to protect her from getting hurt.
The lamp was deeply moved, and of course, he couldn't stand idly by.
She instantly transformed into her true form, unleashing hundreds of pinkish-blue, thread-like tentacles that entangled a dozen or so blue demons under the Black Abyss Lord's command.
Although the Thousand-Thread Jellyfish is not very strong in combat, its tentacles are covered with many stinging sacs.
These nematocysts have sharp barbs that can pierce the skin of their prey and inject the toxins they contain into the prey.
If it's a regular low-level yellow demon, it can die instantly from poisoning.
These blue demons, though not deadly, can significantly reduce their mobility.
Unfortunately, these blue demons had all activated their invincible state, and the Spirit Lamp couldn't do anything about them for the time being.
However, these blue demons also find it difficult to get rid of the tentacles of the Thousand-Thread Jellyfish in a short time.
For the Fine Demon Clan who live in this Black Abyss, the Thousand-Threaded Jellyfish is merely a legendary creature, as are other sea creatures.
Because of the high level of pollution in the water, no other marine life can survive except for the incredibly resilient Little Demons.
Over time, they came to the assumption that there was only one kind of creature in this body of water: their own race of tiny demons.
At this moment, these blue demons saw the legendary sea creature, and it was the Thousand-Threaded Jellyfish, which was good at attacking in groups, so they couldn't help but be a little panicked.
Looking at their lord, he was already seriously injured and forced to activate his invincible state.
In the Misty Heaven Realm, it's commonplace for the Demon Clan to activate their invincible state, because the spiritual energy there is abundant, allowing them to maintain this state for a long time.
But this is the Dust Continent, and unless it's a matter of life and death, the Demon Clan dares not casually activate their invincible state, because they cannot afford the loss of spiritual power.
Achen and Xiaobao were unaware of this. When they saw that Zimo had activated his invincible state, they couldn't help but feel anxious, as their spiritual power simply couldn't withstand the drain!
“We must act quickly. Even if we can’t kill this purple demon, we must find a way to rescue the high priest so we can get information about Xi’er’s current situation from him,” Achen said.
Long Batian raised his large tail and slammed it down hard on Zi Wushiyi.
Xiao Bao unleashed a dense barrage of metallic spikes, aiming them at his invincible body as if they were free.
They all had experience fighting the Purple Demon and knew that the duration of his invincibility would be shortened if he was attacked.
Ah Chen then drew a talisman in mid-air, unleashing his self-created area-of-effect talisman, Snow Elf.
Ah Chen has now broken through to the Tongtian Realm, and the power of his aerial talisman drawing is now vastly different from what it used to be.
As soon as the Snow Elf talisman was completed, snowflakes began to fall from the sky. These snowflakes, controlled by his divine sense, perfectly avoided their companions.
They spun rapidly, half flying towards Purple Fifty-One, while the other half flew towards the hundreds of Green Demons who had come to their rescue.
The Green Goblins didn't really want to rush over to their deaths, but since their lord was under attack, if they didn't show their strength now, they would definitely suffer the consequences later when the lord escaped and they were held accountable.
However, as soon as they arrived, they were met with a barrage of flying snow blades.
Several yellow demons, who were reluctant to activate their invincible state because they were worried about the loss of spiritual energy, were cut into pieces on the spot and it was clear that they would not survive.
Those who had activated their invincible state also had a lot of their spiritual power depleted by the flying snow blades. Several green demons with low cultivation levels immediately deactivated their invincible state.
Such a powerful area-of-effect attack terrified the Green Goblins.
At this point, they no longer cared about showing loyalty to their lord and immediately turned tail and ran.
Only the blue demons, entangled by the tentacles of the spirit lamp, remained, each one inwardly groaning in despair.
They wanted to escape, but they were entangled by the terrifying thousand-thread jellyfish and couldn't get away at all.
It is said that once the jellyfish entangles its prey, it will fight to the death.
Apart from the lord, no one present could rival her, but the lord was already preoccupied with his own problems.
Heavens above! Who will save the child?
Inside the killing formation, the High Priest and Xi'er were prepared for a desperate battle, but the formation was slow to activate.
"Grandpa Ling, is something wrong outside?" Xi'er asked.
"No matter what happens, let's quickly find the weak points in the space; maybe we can get out of trouble."
"As long as I escape this killing formation, I will definitely burn that ungrateful bastard Zi Wushi to ashes!" the High Priest said.
The Dawn Stones that had been taken out earlier have all been put into the hollow silver sphere space by Xi'er.
After absorbing a wave of energy, Da Cai and Xiao Cai gradually showed signs of awakening.
Just then, among a pile of Dawn Stones, a fist-sized dark purple stone spontaneously rolled toward the hollow sphere.
Xi'er and Da Cai and Xiao Cai are of one mind. Even though they are not yet awake, she can sense that they are acting on instinct, wanting to devour the stone.
She remembered that the stone was given to her by Lan 01, the lord of the No. 5 water area of Mantou Ridge.
Since acquiring the space, she hadn't paid much attention to it. She hadn't even noticed when a bunch of Dawn Stones were poured out.
Since it was what Da Cai and Xiao Cai wanted, she put the stone into the hollow sphere.
A moment later, the hollow sphere shone brightly with purple light. Xi'er probed into it with her divine sense and found that the surface of the dark purple stone had begun to crack.
Those purple lights were radiating from the cracks.
The crack is now peeling outwards, just like... molting!
It's truly unbelievable that a stone is shedding its skin.
However, what shocked her even more was that after the stone completed its molting, what appeared before her eyes was a crystal-clear fruit.
Da Cai and Xiao Cai had already woken up and excitedly sent her a telepathic message: "This is the Purple Thunder Soul Fruit that grew on the Purple Cloud Tree, which has been extinct for hundreds of thousands of years!"
Only a Purple Cloud Tree that is over 50,000 years old and survives the ascension lightning tribulation can bear such a fruit.
This fruit contains the essence of thunder refined by the power of stars, and has absorbed all the life force of the Purple Cloud Tree.
The day the fruit ripens is the day the Purple Cloud Tree withers and dies, which is why the Purple Cloud Tree became extinct.
Unexpectedly, I was able to obtain it in this place where spiritual energy is scarce.
"Young master, please eat it quickly!" Da Cai said excitedly.
“But I think you two need it more. It has only just shed its skin and revealed its true form, and you have already woken up,” Xi’er said, shaking her head.
“You only have one chance in your life to obtain such a treasure, young master, please think it over!” Xiao Cai said.
Without hesitation, Xi'er waved her hand and unleashed a wind blade, cutting the fruit in half and stuffing each half into the mouths of Da Cai and Xiao Cai.
The hollow sphere was instantly filled with a purple halo, and Da Cai and Xiao Cai's cultivation levels began to rise steadily.
