Chapter 392: Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil!

Ling Feng's attention was drawn to the fruit in the mouth of the purple electric horned python. Although the python was biting the fruit, a faint green glow surrounded it, protecting the fruit from the python's demonic essence.

Moreover, the purple electric horned python was nearly a fifth-tier demonic beast. It was just one step away from advancing to fifth-tier, which was comparable to a Spiritual Element Realm human expert. Even so, it dared not swallow the fruit directly, indicating the fruit was extraordinary.

"T-That's the Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil!"

Someone's trembling voice broke the silence, and everyone was once again astounded.

The Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil, as its name suggests, was an extremely poisonous fruit. Its toxins were so potent that even a fourth-tier demonic beast or a demon king or emperor would die if they consumed it.

This poison fruit only grew in areas densely populated with poisonous creatures and required a massive amount of poison to flourish. It could only grow in environments where the air itself was filled with toxins, making this treasure extremely rare.

It was no wonder that this lake harbored both the three-legged fire toad and the purple electric horned python.

However, while the Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil was the most poisonous of all fruits, there was a saying that extreme poison could turn into an extreme remedy.

Before it matured, the fruit was the most fearsome poison, but once fully matured, it transformed into a miraculous medicine that could heal any poison and enhance one's cultivation.

Yet, a mature Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil, though extremely beneficial, would be deadly if consumed all at once and could cause even the most powerful experts to explode and die.

This applied to both humans and demonic beasts. With its cultivation, the purple electric horned python only dared to lick a little of the fruit each day to absorb its energy. Any more than a tiny bit, and it would meet a gruesome end.

Nevertheless, the Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil was indeed a rare and miraculous fruit. If one could obtain it and lick a bit each day for ten or twenty years, they would undoubtedly become a top-tier expert.

Of course, this was the most foolish and wasteful method.

Demonic beasts used this method due to their limited intelligence and lack of understanding of the principles of balance and counteraction.

A skilled alchemist could refine the Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil into a gentle medicinal pill that maximized its effects and absorbed all its properties.

A Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil took about eight or nine hundred years to mature. It was an extraordinary treasure that many high-tier alchemists might never encounter in their lifetime!

Ling Feng's eyes flashed with intense desire. If the three-legged fire toad could heal Lin Xian'er, then the Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil would be even more effective.

Moreover, after using the Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil to cure Lin Xian'er of the demonic qi, he could refine it into an incomparable divine pill once he returned to Tianwei Academy and studied it with Yan Cangtian.

Gulp!

The sound of swallowing echoed around as everyone's breath quickened. The chance for instant ascension was right in front of them!

It was no wonder this fruit had caused such a fierce struggle between the two demonic beasts and even caused them to completely ignore the presence of their natural human enemies.

It seemed that the Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil was a treasure guarded by the three-legged fire toad, and the purple electric horned python had likely sneaked in to steal it while the toad was away.

The fruit in the mouth of the purple electric horned python still had roots attached to it and was glowing green and vibrant. Unable to hold back any longer, the martial artists drew their swords and leapt into the muddy pool, even at the risk of their own destruction fearing that this great opportunity would be swallowed by the python.

At that point, no one would gain anything.

"Mountain Splitting Slash!"

Li Wencheng swung his sword with all his might, aiming a fierce strike at the purple electric horned python.

To secure the Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil, Li Wencheng even swallowed a pill that temporarily boosted his elemental force. This pill was a precious and rare item for him, but it was worth the sacrifice if he could obtain the fruit.

Ling Feng snorted softly. Earlier, the value of the three-legged fire toad had kept everyone relatively calm, but now, in the face of the Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil, their greed and selfishness were laid bare.

Seeing the combined assault of the martial artists and the three-legged fire toad, the purple electric horned python realized it was in a dire situation and attempted to flee.

"You wretched beast, don't run!"

Li Wencheng shouted, his body shooting forward to chase the python. The rest of the Blood Wolf Hunting Team followed closely behind.

Hei Feng and the members of the Shadow Strike Hunting Team were no exception. They mingled in with the crowd, hoping to take advantage of the chaos and maybe get lucky.

Ling Feng abandoned the idea of capturing the three-legged fire toad. With a swift movement, he shot forward like a streak of lightning.

𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

He was determined to get the Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil!

...

"Ultimate move!"

"Secret Art!"

"Watch my artifact suppress you!"

The martial artists unleashed their full capabilities, as if they were injected with adrenaline. A single Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil was enough to drive any martial artist into a frenzy!

As they fervently pursued the purple electric horned python, a white figure suddenly intercepted the python’s path with a swift movement.

"My god, what kind of speed is this?"

Li Wencheng gasped. He distinctly remembered that when he had rushed out, Ling Feng had not yet started his pursuit. How could he now be ahead of the purple electric horned python in just the blink of an eye?

Though he knew that most students of Tianwei Academy were geniuses and prodigies, he had never imagined that Ling Feng, who was merely at the Pulse Formation Realm, could surpass him in speed, even though he himself was a late-stage Transformation Realm martial artist!

No, Ling Feng’s speed is far beyond mine!

Can this be the prowess of a genius? Are geniuses really this extraordinary?

It seemed that his mediocrity had indeed limited his imagination. He could not fathom the world of geniuses!

"Hand over the Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil, and I will guarantee your safe departure," Ling Feng said with his arms crossed, warning the purple electric horned python.

Although the purple electric horned python was valuable in its entirety, the Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil was clearly more precious.

This gifted demonic beast, already at the peak of the fourth-tier, possessed intelligence comparable to that of humans.

However, the purple electric horned python showed no intention of relinquishing the Poison Fruit of Ten Thousand Evil. It roared defiantly at Ling Feng, its large eyes glowing with an eerie purple light. With a shake of its massive body, it lunged straight at Ling Feng.

"Very well, it seems you don’t intend to leave here alive!"

Ling Feng's eyebrows furrowed slightly. Instantly, he unfolded the Lingtian Sword Force and enveloped the purple electric horned python in it.
