Chapter 2769

The fruits that all the powerful beings had been fighting for had turned into human figures after landing on the ground. If there were any powerful beings who were present to witness this scene, who knew what they would think of it?

These fruits turned into human figures. They were naked and flashed with green light. They all looked up at the Ancient Tree King.

Two eyes appeared on the Ancient Tree King's body. These two eyes emitted a cold green light. "Go, kill them!"

These fruits that turned into human figures disappeared into thin air. It was as if they had teleported and disappeared without a trace.

The sky was dyed green by the life force. The sea of trees stretched for miles. The surroundings became quiet again. The Ancient Tree King was still absorbing the life force of those experts.

Those experts who were motionless twitched from time to time, but they did not make a sound.

"All living things that step into my world must die!"

The cold and harsh laughter broke the silence. The Ancient Tree King closed its eyes again, and the green light on its body faded away.

The net had been cast. Next was to wait for the harvest.

…

…

Obtaining almost twenty fruits was definitely a big gain for Zi Chen.

After escaping, he kept teleporting until he felt that he was far enough away, safe enough, and no one could catch up with him. Then, he stopped and re-entered the forest.

After entering the forest, he first killed a few ancient trees. The life force of the ancient trees was absorbed by the mother nest. Soon, this area was cleared, and he flashed into the world.

At this time, Shadowless was observing the harvest. Zi Chen asked, "Do you feel any use?"

Shadowless stood up and said, "There's the power of rules inside, and also a strong life force. There should be many uses. Try refining one first."

The fruit of the Ancient Tree King was naturally extraordinary. Zi Chen believed that it was the Fruit of Life.

This strange thing was beneficial to him. Zi Chen took one and started refining without hesitation.

"I'll go check out the surroundings." Shadowless said and prepared to leave Zi Chen's world.

"It's only been a while. They shouldn't have caught up." Zi Chen looked at Shadowless and said.

"It's never wrong to be careful." Shadowless disappeared.

Zi Chen thanked him in his heart and began to refine the fruit. The fruit emitted a green light as if it was alive, and when it entered his stomach, it turned into a surge of energy.

Among these energies, there was pure Rule Power as well as pure vitality.

As this energy spread out, Zi Chen felt as if he had come to a world full of vitality. All the life forms in this world were full of vitality, and their vitality was surging.

In such a world full of vitality, it was as if everything was eternal, immortal and indestructible.

This energy entered his body and was absorbed by the Yin and Yang energy. This Yin and Yang energy was slowly undergoing a fundamental change.

It seemed to have changed from hard to soft, combining both hard and soft.

The effect of the Fruit of Life overlapped with that of the Heart of the Ancient Tree, but it was more comprehensive.

Not only would it allow him to become more familiar with his own energy perception, but it would also deepen his understanding of the world's rules. His General-level Saber Dao would also improve.

As the refinement continued, the parts that Zhang Xuan didn't quite understand gradually became clearer.

It took Zi Chen seven days to refine this fruit before he completely exhausted the fruit's energy. When he opened his eyes, a green light flashed in them.

He had not broken through and was still a distance away from becoming a Level-9 Divine General. However, this fruit had improved him a lot, and his combat strength had increased significantly.

He slowly stretched out his right hand, and two streams of Yin and Yang energy appeared in his hand at the same time. These two streams of energy were spinning in his palm, and their speed was getting faster and faster.

Seven days ago, when Zi Chen had not refined the fruit, it was impossible for him to control two types of energy with one hand.

As his spiritual thoughts moved, the Yin and Yang energies quickly condensed together as they spun, turning into a small lotus. It was the Yin Yang Thunder Lotus.

Following that, Zi Chen's spiritual thoughts moved again, and the thunder lotus that had just formed dissipated again. It turned into two types of energy again and spun around his palm.

Finally, the two streams of energy disappeared from his palm.

Now, he had reached the point where he could retract and release them freely. His improvement could be said to be great.

In addition to his control of energy, he had also improved in other aspects. The most obvious one was his General-level Saber Dao. He was also closer to comprehending his fourth Saber Dao.

Refining one fruit had such an effect, and Zi Chen's heart was filled with excitement. At this moment, he still had nearly 75 fruits. Once he refined all of them, would he be able to break through?

His heart was filled with anticipation.

Not only that, but he also thought of the Ancient Tree King. On its huge tree body, there were no less than 65,555 fruits. If he could obtain all of them and refine all of them, how much progress would he make?

Even if he could not refine all of them, everyone could refine them if he brought them back.

Waking up from his fantasy, Zi Chen continued to refine the second fruit.

In fact, Zi Chen did not know that these fruits could help all the powerhouses here improve. If a Divine General at the peak of Level-0 who had reached the bottleneck refined them, it would be enough to help him advance to Level-1.

It could be said that this was an opportunity to break through, and it was extremely rare.

Even for Level-1 powerhouses, this fruit had a great effect. Even if it could not help them break through, such an improvement would allow them to see the path to Level-2. This would allow them to take fewer detours in the future.

Of course, this was only under the condition that he obtained one. If he obtained more, then the more, the better.

However, this time, most of the powerhouses only obtained one fruit. They did not refine all of these fruits. Some were waiting to refine them when they reached the bottleneck, while others wanted to get more and refine them all together.

…

…

In this special world with only ancient trees, the world was quiet.

The will of the forest fell again, and the ancient trees covered the sky again.

Suddenly, a rare breeze blew through the quiet forest. A figure appeared in one of the ancient trees.

That figure was inside the ancient tree, and only a clear human face could be seen. He was turning his head, as if he would walk out of the ancient tree at any time.

Sweeping his gaze around, his silhouette disappeared from the ancient tree. A gentle breeze blew past, and he reappeared in another ancient tree. He continued to look around.

He was invisible, and he did not need to walk. His body could change positions among these ancient trees at will.

After changing positions many times, he appeared in another ancient tree. Finally, he found his target.

It was a figure of light, sitting cross-legged on a withered tree root. Divine light swirled around his body.

A gentle breeze blew past, and a leaf slowly fell from above.

That figure appeared above the drooping leaves and lowered his head to look at the motionless figure sitting cross-legged below.

As he approached the figure, a ball of green light appeared in his palm. The green light turned into a short dagger, stabbing toward the back of the Level-0 Divine General.

Puff!

Without a sound, the short dagger broke through the divine light on the surface of the figure's body and pierced into his back.

The figure let go of the dagger, and his figure disappeared.

The Level-0 Divine General suddenly jumped up. His body shone with divine light. He raised his head and looked up. He did not see any danger.

The short dagger still in his back turned into green light again. It turned into energy vines, piercing through his skin and growing out.

A terrified scream came from the forest, and the quiet atmosphere was broken.

The loud cry that broke the silence quickly disappeared.

The Level-0 Divine General fell to the ground. His body had turned into a tree ball, and his vitality was suppressed.

The silhouette that had disappeared earlier reappeared from the trunk of the tree. He stretched out his hand and pointed forward. Green light flickered on his fingertips. Rays of light shot out one after another, dragging the ball of tree towards this side and merging into the roots of the ancient tree.

After killing the Level-0 Divine General, the figure that did not show his true body moved forward again with the help of the ancient trees, looking for his second target.

At this moment, there were too many figures moving with the help of the ancient trees in this forest. Their bodies were silent, and there was only an imperceptible breeze wherever they passed.

…

…

Sitting cross-legged in the world, Zi Chen had refined the second fruit. He had made great progress, and he was very satisfied.

Then he would refine the third and the fourth. As long as he had enough time, he would refine all of these fruits.

At this moment, several of his clones were comprehending the General-level Saber Will. Green light flashed on their bodies. They had mobilized part of the fruit's power.

In this world, only Zi Chen, who had more than 75 fruits, could be so extravagant.

…

…

In the forest, those figures were still moving forward, taking care of one opponent after another. Some were killed without making a sound, while others were a little more strenuous.

A breeze blew again. A Level-1 Divine General opened his eyes. He turned his head and looked around. His thick eyebrows furrowed slightly. It seemed that there had been a breeze in the forest these days, and the occasional exclamation made him feel a little uneasy.

There was an upside down gourd above his head. The gourd hung down a curtain of light, protecting him.

He looked around but did not see anything unusual.

At this moment, he felt a change in the curtain of light. He looked up abruptly and saw a glowing green figure grabbing his gourd with both hands. It seemed that the figure was trying to pull it away by force.

"You're courting death!"

The Level-1 Divine General and the green figure were both startled when they suddenly saw the green figure. The next moment, there was a loud shout. The gourd exploded with divine light, and the green figure disappeared.

A powerful aura surged from the Level-1 Divine General. The divine light emitted by the gourd became even more dazzling, dyeing the ancient trees around them with colors.

The green figure disappeared, as if it had never been there.

The gourd turned into a beam of light and fell into the Level-1 Divine General's hand. Divine light spewed out of the gourd's mouth, and a large amount of divine fire appeared. The divine fire set the ancient trees around them ablaze.

The ancient trees, which had been motionless before, began to struggle and twist. They let out shrill screams.

At this moment, the glowing figure appeared on top of an ancient tree in the distance. It stared coldly at the Level-1 Divine General who had set the fire.
