Chapter 122 Obtaining the Immortal Fruit
Thick fog blanketed the endless mountain peaks, and mist swirled everywhere on the ground. Many fog beasts lived on Moon God Mountain, their bodies emitting dense fog, thus ensuring the mountain was perpetually shrouded in mist.
At this moment, beside a pool of water, a gigantic mist beast was resting on a rock. This mist beast had a fish-like body, but a head like an ox, and ox-like legs. It had white wings on its back, and large amounts of white mist emanated from its body.
Not far from the mist beast grew a tall spirit tree, its entire body shrouded in red light, making it look quite extraordinary. Five fruits grew on the tree.
The fruit was bright red, resembling an apple, but with cloud-like patterns on it. The entire fruit exuded wisps of ethereal energy, which imbued the entire pool and the surrounding plants with a magical aura.
Han Wei was hiding behind a boulder a hundred feet away, staring at the fruit on the spirit tree, feeling a little excited.
Immortal Fruit!!
She actually found five Immortal Fruits!
Han Wei was merely passing through Moon God Mountain when she unexpectedly stumbled upon such a great opportunity. Concealing her presence with the Breathing Stone, Han Wei glanced at the mist beast lazily lying on the rock and took out her Reflection Mirror. This mist beast possessed the strength of a mid-stage Mahayana cultivator, and Han Wei had no intention of engaging it in a direct confrontation.
A glance in the mirror revealed a flash of light, and there appeared a mirror image of the mist beast with the head of a bull and the body of a fish. This mirror image immediately attacked its original form.
Boom!
A beam of light shot out from the mirror projection's mouth, striking its true form. The mist beast was hit, its entire body flying backward and crashing into a rock, enraging it. But the mirror projection didn't care about its anger; it only wanted to kill its own true form.
So they started fighting.
Taking advantage of their fight, Han Wei flew towards the Immortal Fruits. With a wave of her hand, she plucked all five Immortal Fruits and stored them in her storage bracelet. Then, she placed her hands on the Immortal Tree, her palms emitting a faint green light, and leaf-like totems appeared on her arms.
The entire Immortal Tree swayed gently, and then the towering Immortal Tree, which was over ten feet tall, shrank into a single emerald seed, which Han Wei spat out.
Rumble—
The mountain collapsed, and the ox-headed, fish-bodied mist beast was still fighting its mirror image. Han Wei ignored them, took out the Thunder Chariot from her storage bracelet, and quickly left. After Han Wei had flown 100,000 miles away, the mirror image, still fiercely battling its original form, suddenly vanished.
The ox-headed, fish-bodied mist beast was utterly bewildered, but given its intelligence, it couldn't possibly understand it.
————
Inside a secluded cave, a stunningly beautiful young woman sat cross-legged on the ground, her eyes closed, her entire body enveloped in colorful light.
After obtaining the Immortal Fate Fruit, Han Wei found a safe place and immediately ate one. Ordinary Nascent Soul stage cultivators, even if they ate an Immortal Fate Fruit, would only be able to generate immortal energy within their bodies after reaching the Tribulation Transcending stage. In other words, the benefits would only manifest upon entering the Tribulation Transcending stage.
But Han Wei is special; she has the body of a wood spirit.
She ate a Celestial Fruit, and after absorbing its medicinal power, a wisp of Celestial Qi arose within her body. Seeing this, Han Wei ate the remaining four Celestial Fruits as well. Thus, Han Wei suddenly possessed five wisps of Celestial Qi.
After entering the Tribulation Transcending stage, cultivators diligently cultivate their immortal energy. The more immortal energy they possess, the more confident they are in surviving the tribulation that leads to immortality. Entering the Tribulation Transcending stage means they could become immortal at any moment. A single wisp of immortal energy is enough to trigger the tribulation lightning for immortality; however, daring to attract such lightning with just a wisp of immortal energy is tantamount to courting death.
In her previous life, Han Wei cultivated 356 strands of immortal energy before she could attract the heavenly tribulation lightning and ascend to immortality.
Unfortunately, he couldn't overcome his inner demons and ultimately perished.
Thinking of this, Han Wei looked inward at the nine-colored bead within her body. Since she obtained the bead, it had remained quiet within her primordial spirit, without any reaction.
Is my ability to be reborn related to it?
What exactly is this thing?
Han Wei thought for a moment and tried to touch the nine-colored bead with her own immortal energy, but the bead still didn't react at all. Han Wei tried a few times and then gave up.
As she raised her hand, three pieces of immortal jade appeared in front of her.
Of these three pieces of immortal jade, two were spoils of war after she killed Chen Luoyan, and the other was something she found not long ago in the ruins in front of Black Wind Valley.
Han Wei looked at the three pieces of immortal jade and tried to absorb the immortal power within them. Normally, absorbing immortal power from immortal jade was something only cultivators in the Tribulation Transcending stage dared to do. But now that she already possessed five strands of immortal energy, she should be able to withstand absorbing immortal power, right?
Strands of immortal energy were released from the immortal jade, flowing into Han Wei's body and nourishing her entire being.
Within her Wood Spirit Cave, all the rare and precious materials trembled slightly as immortal power surged in. Han Wei's skin was enveloped in a faint, holy white light, making her stunningly beautiful face even more breathtaking.
Han Wei was overjoyed to see that she could indeed absorb the immortal power from the immortal jade.
But at that moment, she suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.
She felt that feeling of being watched again.
Who is it?
Could it be that Master Dongyang again?
Han Wei frowned, wondering if that guy was proficient in some kind of divination technique. Thinking of Li Chong's Great Derivation Compass, it was highly likely that Master Dongyang was skilled in divination.
In divination, Han Wei, possessing divine wisdom and spiritual attainment, has an extraordinary advantage.
However, because she had never learned divination in either her past or present life, she was unable to perform divination even with the Divine Wisdom Fruit. To use the Divine Wisdom Fruit for divination, she first needed a foundation in divination techniques. Without that foundation, and without even knowing how to begin, it was truly like a skilled cook trying to make a meal without rice.
Master Dongyang arrived quickly, and Han Wei's sense of crisis grew stronger. She put away the immortal jade, stood up, and put on the Thunder King Armor.
With a wave of her hand, Han Wei displayed a map of the secret realm before her. She studied the map, searching for areas nearby where numerous restrictions might exist. The Mirror of Reflection was useless against True Person Dongyang; for her, a mid-stage Integration Realm cultivator, to escape from this Tribulation Transcending stage monster again, she needed to seize the opportune moment, the perfect location, and the right people.
After quickly glancing at the map, Han Wei flew out of the cave, took out the Thunder Chariot from her storage bracelet, and sped towards a nearby stone forest.
Rumble—
Han Wei drove her chariot, and on the horizon behind her, flames appeared. The flames spread from the horizon, igniting the sky and the earth.
Within the flames, a terrifying aura locked onto Han Wei. Han Wei gritted her teeth and rapidly activated the "Nine Heavens Thunder Control Technique," increasing her speed several times over.
"Where are you going!"
Master Dongyang's furious voice boomed like thunder overhead. He had been trapped by the stone statues, leaving him in a very sorry state. Although they hadn't killed him, they had injured him. For a Tribulation Transcending cultivator to be trapped and injured by a Nascent Soul cultivator was an utter disgrace!
Master Dongyang vowed to capture Han Wei and to severely humiliate this ungrateful woman, repeatedly using her sexual energy to vent his hatred.
