Chapter 607: Right Eye Twitching Again
And with these harvests, he didn't intend to come and wade through this muddy water again!
He took out a suitable jade box and endured more than a dozen lightning attacks before successfully picking the nine already mature Thunder Extreme Fruits.
Since the things were already in hand, there was nothing to be nostalgic about here!
It wasn't that he didn't know to dig up a section of the Thunder Extreme Fruit tree's root system to take back, but his inner space couldn't be used now, and having the root system was useless!
Besides, even if he planted it in his inner space, there was no lightning there, so he estimated it wouldn't grow Thunder Extreme Fruits either, so he gave up!
And the lightning here was still very formidable. Now that he was already injured, he didn't dare to linger here for too long.
However, adhering to the principle that if there's a bargain, one should take as much as possible, when Lin Zhangqing finally left, he still cut three sections of side branches, three feet long and as thick as a teacup, from the very tips of the Thunder Extreme Fruit trees.
These small tree trunks had endured the tempering of lightning for years and months and were already a very precious thunder-attribute material!
And the grade of the fruit tree itself was there, so these things were precious Third-Stage Top-Grade thunder-attribute materials.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one else here, he dared to secretly take a little. In fact, it was no big deal.
As long as he didn't destroy the main trunk of the fruit tree and didn't affect future fruiting, it was fine.
If someone were here, Lin Zhangqing wouldn't dare to do this. If others saw it and leaked it, he would be in trouble! After all, this secret realm was controlled by the Myriad Sect Island, and these things were equivalent to the property of the Myriad Sect Island.
If they knew Lin Zhangqing was causing damage, they definitely wouldn't let him off! And according to his observation, these thunder-attribute materials he had taken down were very special, having endured the baptism of lightning from small to large.
So they were very precious and special. Even if they weren't forged into spiritual artifacts or magic treasures, they could be used directly, just like Thunder Spirit Pearls.
But their grade was very high, so suppressing a bit of thunder mana was still very easy for them.
With these unexpected harvests, he was already very satisfied. He didn't dare to touch the remaining materials, lest he take too much and really affect the fruit tree's future fruiting.
So Lin Zhangqing packed everything properly and left the mountaintop.
Returning to the lightning strike area with tree trunk cover, he finally felt a bit better.
He took two Spring Return Pills and rested a bit before slowly returning along the original path.
With the cover of night and the constant lightning, he finally successfully returned to the lower part of Jilei Mountain.
Here, he had to be even more careful. However, these Three-Eyed Thunder Apes also needed to rest at night.
So Lin Zhangqing still passed through the territory of the Three-Eyed Thunder Apes without any danger. Just this distance of over two thousand five hundred zhang took him more than an hour.
By the time he finally returned to his campsite, the sky was almost bright. He had injuries on his body and wanted to seize the time to rest for a bit.
He didn't expect that at this moment, his right eye, which hadn't had any movement for a long time, suddenly started twitching violently again!
Twitching rhythmically and with a regular beat, just like before. This situation gave Lin Zhangqing a big fright.
Because he knew this was a hint from the Innate Merit True Eye that a danger beyond his ability to handle was about to happen! Then, the thing in this place that could cause him fatal danger was the Third-Stage Thunder Apes on Jilei Mountain!
Could it be because he had taken away the mature Thunder Extreme Fruits, and those Three-Eyed Thunder Apes would go crazy after discovering it? The more Lin Zhangqing thought about it, the more reasonable it felt. In that case, regardless of anything else, he couldn't stay in this place any longer.
So he immediately set to work, recovering the two array disks he had set up, and tried his best to wipe away the traces of his presence.
After confirming no things were left that could track him, he didn't dare to delay time and immediately flew in the direction he had come from yesterday.
Why choose this direction to retreat? Because he had already walked this road once.
He had some impression of the approximate terrain and environment, so it wasn't easy to have problems.
And he had already obtained nine Thunder Extreme Fruits, which could be considered exceeding his mission quota, and there were even extras.
He didn't know anyone else in this place, so he didn't intend to let the extra Thunder Extreme Fruits go.
So Lin Zhangqing wanted to find a suitable place to stay and then try the effect of the Thunder Extreme Fruit to see if it was really as magical as introduced in the data jade slip!
And now, he also had a suitable place in mind. It was when he passed through a small valley that he saw a piece of several dozen caves.
He didn't know what had left them, but Lin Zhangqing had indeed rested for a night in that vicinity.
Although he hadn't entered the caves, the Purple Crystal Scorpions had once gone in to check, and there were no signs of demon beasts inside.
So Lin Zhangqing immediately thought of that small valley.
Once he arrived there, choosing a suitable cave and setting up a formation would be a good place for closed-door cultivation!
Now he was heading toward that small valley. It would take about a day and a half to reach there! However, not even a quarter of an hour after he left the campsite, he heard angry ape roars coming from the direction of Jilei Mountain behind him! And these ape roars were becoming more and more numerous. Looking at this situation, the entire clan had been alarmed.
The most likely possibility was that the Three-Eyed Thunder Apes had already discovered that all the mature Thunder Extreme Fruits had been taken away by someone, which was why they were so angry.
Because they themselves were also thunder-attribute demon beasts, the Thunder Extreme Fruit was also a very important thing for them, which could also help them advance.
Now that they were so angry, he estimated that the cultivators hiding at the foot of the mountain were in for a miserable time.
Last night, he had confirmed on Jilei Mountain that there were at least eight or nine Third-Stage Three-Eyed Thunder Apes on the mountain.
Now if they all moved out, plus several hundred Second-Stage Thunder Apes, then the cultivators hiding under Jilei Mountain were definitely dead for sure.
Fortunately, he ran fast; otherwise, even if he used all his trump cards, he likely wouldn't have been able to escape with his life.
Although Jilei Mountain was already some distance away from him now, and when the ape roars came over, they were only faint.
But he didn't dare to be careless, immediately draped the light gauze magic treasure over himself, and didn't dare to continue flying in the air.
He immediately landed in the forest and began to advance toward the small valley from the ground.
However, Lin Zhangqing had also miscalculated. Although he was invisible, moving at high speed in the forest, he still left some traces of movement on the ground.
