Chapter 1254: Dragon Scale Fruit

"I discovered this tree by accident years ago. From then on, I would come to pick the fruit punctually every ten years or so. In some human records, this fruit is described as miraculous, even saying that one can ascend to heaven in broad daylight after consuming it. But in the eyes of human high-level cultivators, it has always been considered a useless item, thinking that our Flood Dragon clan likes to eat this just to satisfy our appetite. But who knows, although this spirit fruit is not as miraculous as human records say, consuming it often can also allow the body to be reborn and possess immense strength. It's just that if you don't consume it often, you naturally can't discover the mystery within. This fruit exists very rarely in the world, and human cultivators have even less opportunity to know about this. However, Fellow Daoist Feng actually knows the secret and even understands the method of transplanting this fruit, which surprised me somewhat." The golden-robed burly man stared at the cyan-robed cultivator, his face showing a trace of strangeness.

"I also discovered the remains of an ancient demon clan and learned the mystery and transplanting method of the Dragon Scale Fruit from the cultivation technique left behind. It is said that every time this fruit is consumed, although the transformation of the body is minimal and almost undetectable, if one can consume it every day, over time, it can transform the physical body into a strong and powerful state comparable to a true dragon. I wonder if this is true?" The cyan-robed cultivator replied calmly.

"In theory, it is indeed possible. But in reality, it is simply impossible to achieve. Even if all the Dragon Scale Fruit trees in the world were gathered together, they couldn't provide one person with such extravagant consumption. Therefore, this one Dragon Scale Fruit tree is exceptionally precious to our Flood Dragon clan. This time, if it weren't for Fellow Daoist Feng confidently saying that you could provide the transplanting method, I would never have brought you here." The golden-robed man's expression became solemn.

"Haha, I, Feng Xi, am familiar with many fellow daoists of your clan; how would I dare to deceive you with false words? But the matter you promised me, Fellow Daoist..."

This cyan-robed demon cultivator was actually the Level 9 Rending Wind Beast that had almost chased Han Li to heaven and earth years ago, and the golden-robed burly man was naturally the Golden Flood Dragon King. Now, he was in a completely different form from the half-human, half-flood dragon form he had on Biling Island, looking just like an ordinary human.

"As long as the news Fellow Daoist Feng provides is correct, I will not break my word and will naturally gift you those few spirit herbs." The Golden Flood Dragon King waved his hand and said.

Feng Xi heard this, joy appeared on his face, and he cupped his hands to thank him:

"Those few spirit herbs are very useful to me, so I will thank you first, Fellow Daoist."

"No need to say these words. Everything depends on whether your transplanting technique is successful." The Golden Flood Dragon King said faintly.

"Rest assured. If I didn't have a few points of certainty, how would I dare to rashly find you, Fellow Daoist. This transplanting method was researched by that ancient demon clan member with all his life's effort. Not only is it very useful for the Dragon Scale Fruit tree, but it is also equally effective for other spirit herbs and spirit trees." Feng Xi appeared exceptionally confident.

"Hehe, I hope so!" The Golden Flood Dragon King didn't seem to have much confidence.

Feng Xi smiled upon seeing this and didn't say anything else, but when cyan light flashed on his body, he looked like he was about to fall downward.

"Wait!"

Feng Xi's action was interrupted by the Golden Flood Dragon King, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

"I still feel something is wrong; I have a feeling of heart-palpitations. I will use another secret technique to search carefully again. To avoid any real problems." The golden-robed burly man's face was gloomy as he said this.

Hearing the Golden Flood Dragon King's words, although Feng Xi was unhappy in his heart, he naturally couldn't say anything else and had to nod helplessly.

The burly man opened his mouth and spat out a golden sphere. He grabbed the sphere with one hand, pressed it lightly against his forehead, and closed his eyes solemnly.

As time passed, the sphere's light grew brighter, and a trace of strain appeared on the Golden Flood Dragon King's face.

This treasure sphere was actually a rare auxiliary treasure that could forcibly amplify a cultivator's spiritual sense by a great deal, and it was extremely useful.

With the assistance of the treasure sphere, the spiritual sense released by the Golden Flood Dragon King was now nearly half as strong again as before. Whether it was the search range or the strength of the spiritual sense, it was far from what it was before.

After a short while, the Golden Flood Dragon King's expression changed, and he opened his eyes with essence light shooting out. He put away the sphere on his forehead and shouted loudly:

"Who is it that dares to sneakily plot against this king? Get out here immediately!"

The shout was as shocking as a thunderclap, rolling toward all directions!

Feng Xi, who was on the side, heard the burly man's words and was greatly shocked. Suspiciously, he also released his spiritual sense to search.

The Golden Flood Dragon King had already stared fixedly at a certain place on the island, his face icy cold.

"I didn't expect that you would have such a treasure in your hands; Han miscalculated somewhat."

A man's faint voice came, and spiritual light flashed at the place the Golden Flood Dragon King was looking at. A cyan rainbow shot out, flew to a distance of several dozen feet in front of the two demons in one breath, and revealed a young man, looking at the two demons calmly.

"It's you!"

"That brat surnamed Li!"

As soon as the Golden Flood Dragon King and Feng Xi saw Han Li's face clearly, they both gasped out loud, but their expressions were completely different; Feng Xi was both shocked and happy, while the Golden Flood Dragon King had a look of extreme vigilance.

"Why, Fellow Daoist Feng recognizes this person?" The golden-robed burly man's pupils shrank, and he asked Feng Xi coldly.

"Brother Jin, this is the human cultivator who killed my grandson and snatched the treasure I refined years ago. I didn't expect that after so many years, he would dare to reappear in the outer sea. This time, we absolutely cannot let him escape. Wait, his cultivation..." Feng Xi was excited at first, but when his spiritual sense swept across Han Li's body, his expression changed suddenly, revealing an expression of disbelief.

"Hmph, escape? You didn't see that this person is taking the initiative to find trouble with us!" The Golden Flood Dragon King's eyes flashed with golden light, and he said gloomily.

"Impossible, years ago he was just a Core Formation cultivator; how could he have such terrifying cultivation now? Has he really advanced to a Great Cultivator?"

Han Li did not hide his cultivation realm. After Feng Xi sensed it clearly, he couldn't help but feel somewhat dazed.

"Hmph, Fellow Daoist Feng has been in seclusion for most of the time for hundreds of years, so it seems you haven't heard about what happened on Biling Island. This person is indeed a Late Nascent Soul Great Cultivator. Now that he is blocking us two, he is definitely not coming with good intentions; you and I must deal with this carefully." The Golden Flood Dragon King's lips moved, transmitting his voice to Feng Xi.

Feng Xi licked his lips and nodded subconsciously.

Just as the two demons stared at Han Li, both revealing unkind expressions, Han Li spoke:

"Originally, Han only wanted to wait for Fellow Daoist Jin, but I didn't expect to see another old friend. This is truly an unexpected joy. It seems I was destined not to return empty-handed on this trip." Han Li stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze sweeping over the cyan-robed demon cultivator, revealing a trace of a sneer.

"Looking for me? Do you think that top-grade spirit stone is too hot to handle and want to give it to this old man?" The golden-robed burly man laughed ferociously and asked unceremoniously.

"Han still has great use for the top-grade spirit stone and cannot let Fellow Daoist Jin have his way. This time, I found this place just to borrow your demon core. I wonder if you are willing to spit it out yourself, to save us from having to do it ourselves." Han Li turned his gaze to the burly man and said words that left the two demons stunned.

"Borrow my inner core? You dare to say such things in front of this king. Good, very good! If you want it, come and take it yourself!" The Golden Flood Dragon King laughed wildly in anger, and the golden light on his golden robe suddenly radiated a layer of oily luster, transforming in the blink of an eye into a golden battle armor.

At the same time, the demon's head emitted dazzling spiritual light, and then golden scales appeared on his cheeks, and a tail suddenly appeared behind him.

This demon king was also alert, transforming his figure into a half-human, half-flood dragon form for battle.

He turned his hand into the empty air, and a golden long spear appeared amidst flickering silver arcs. Without hesitation, he threw it with force. The long spear disappeared with a thunderous sound, but the next moment it appeared in front of Han Li.

It was covered in a layer of electric arcs and struck down fiercely!

This demon king actually acted as soon as he said he would, without even a greeting.

Han Li's heart also tightened, but he was well-prepared. Without a second thought, he gripped an object in his hand hidden in his sleeve and flicked it lightly.

Instantly, silver light flashed in front of him, and a silver lotus several feet in size appeared out of thin air.

The golden long spear struck right into the heart of the lotus.

With a loud 'Boom', the silver lotus shook violently, emitting seven-colored Buddha light from within, actually blocking the seemingly fierce golden spear head-on. It was just that the silver lotus itself also dimmed, looking not at all relaxed.

Han Li pinched magic seals with both hands in a rush, and instantly a thunderclap sounded behind his back, a pair of cyan-white feathered wings emerged, and with a gentle flap, his figure shot backward more than ten feet before stabilizing again. He looked at the two demons with sarcasm.

"Wind-Thunder Wings!" Feng Xi saw the feathered wings and couldn't help but be both angry and furious. He shook his sleeve, red light flashed on both hands, and a pair of short daggers appeared simultaneously.

He raised his hands, and the two short daggers transformed into two red rays, attacking Han Li.

Han Li looked at this demon coldly, snorted, and opened his mouth, spitting out a cyan-misty light ball, inside which was a small cauldron several inches in size.

It was the Void Heaven Treasure Cauldron.

Han Li urged the Treasure-Passing Technique in his heart, and after a clear chime, the cauldron lid flew open on its own.

The sound of breaking the air came; the two red rays had already reached the space above Han Li's head. After circling once, they slashed down from both sides simultaneously in a cross.

Intending to slash Han Li into several pieces.

But Han Li just extended a finger toward the small cauldron in front of him and flicked it lightly.

With a 'pop' sound, a cluster of cyan threads shot out, splitting left and right, transforming into cyan light that filled the sky, coiling the two red rays within it.

Feng Xi was greatly shocked and hurriedly pinched magic seals, wanting to urge the treasure to rush out of the cyan light.

But he lost his spiritual connection with the two short daggers, and could only watch helplessly as they were rolled into the small cauldron by the cyan light and disappeared without a trace.

Feng Xi saw this scene, his hand movements paused, and he was stunned like a wooden chicken!
