Chapter 29: Huge Harvest

At this moment.

The moment Lu Li stepped into the cave abode, he felt a strong spiritual power rushing toward his face.

That spiritual power was so thick!

It actually made the technique in his body operate on its own!

"Such rich spiritual power, only such a place can give birth to heaven and earth treasures like the Red Vermilion Fruit, right?"

Lu Li didn't stop.

He knew his figure had been seen through.

If possible, he also hoped that he could truly sit and gain the profit, and obtain the Red Vermilion Fruit in the dark.

But with the terrain here, his actions couldn't be hidden from anyone at all. If he didn't take action even when the Ouyang family six people and the Angry Flame Snake King fought to the most intense point, once they really decided the winner, it would be even more troublesome.

Wealth is sought in danger!

How can there be any good thing of truly sitting and gaining profit?

Lu Li didn't stop his feet, following the deep tunnel toward the end of the cave abode.

A few minutes later.

An ancient tree emitting a scorching aura appeared before his eyes.

The ancient tree was only as tall as a person, but it was lush with foliage and entirely fire-red, as if shrouded in a faint flame; and there, among the dense, fire-red branches and leaves, hung three crimson fruits the size of an infant's fist.

The two were one!

If not observed carefully, it couldn't be discovered for a while.

"Red Vermilion Fruit!"

Lu Li exclaimed.

Three!

A full three!

You must know that such heaven and earth treasures are extremely difficult to be born, and each one needs the most stringent conditions!

And the Red Vermilion Fruit belongs to fire, not only needing rich heaven and earth spiritual power, but also needing to absorb massive amounts of geocentric fire flames. The spiritual power conditions here might be reached, but no matter what, it couldn't grow into three!

"Whoo!"

Lu Li took a long breath, letting himself calm down.

His gaze moved down.

Falling under the roots of the Red Vermilion Fruit tree.

There, it was fiery red!

There was scorching power rising from the underground, and before it merged into the void, it was all absorbed by the Red Vermilion Fruit tree.

"That is..."

Lu Li frowned and walked up.

His right hand extended, sensing carefully.

Suddenly, a vast heat wave rushed from under the ground, like a fire dragon surging and rolling there, releasing endless scorching Qi, wanting to burn the entire underground world to the ground.

Fire vein!

This is the true underground fire vein!

No wonder this Red Vermilion Fruit could grow into three at once; it turned out it absorbed the fire flame power of the entire underground fire vein!

Lu Li was no longer puzzled.

After picking the three Red Vermilion Fruits, he turned and left.

It wasn't that he didn't want to take away this Red Vermilion Fruit tree, but the conditions here were the most suitable. Once it was taken away, and an environment like this wasn't created in time, not to mention growing Red Vermilion Fruits, I'm afraid even this Red Vermilion Fruit tree would wither and die.

That would be truly wasting heaven's gifts!

And as long as the Red Vermilion Fruit tree was left here, maybe it would grow Red Vermilion Fruits again next time!

Comparing the two.

Lu Li naturally chose to leave it behind.

He moved rapidly.

Soon, he came outside the cave abode again.

And at this time, a shocking sorrowful roar came from high above.

Then, a huge fiery red body fell from high above, and with a "bang," it smashed into endless dust on the ground.

The dust dissipated!

The Angry Flame Snake King's body appeared.

However

"Spirit-Binding Net!"

Lu Li could not help but frown.

For this trip to find the Red Vermilion Fruit, in addition to greatly increasing his combat power, he had specifically researched everything related to the Ouyang Family.

This Spirit-Binding Net was one of the Ouyang Family's inherited secret treasures!

It is rumored that this net was refined by a Martial Monarch predecessor of the Ouyang Family and possesses terrifying binding power, capable of ensnaring any powerhouse below the Martial Monarch realm.

Once deployed to its limit, it could even trap a Martial Monarch powerhouse for a moment!

He truly did not expect that for this operation, the Ouyang Family would even bring out such a supreme treasure.

"They really are well-prepared!"

Lu Li's expression darkened slightly.

He moved his feet, intending to flash away.

But just then, the six members of the Ouyang Family descended from the sky, blocking his path.

"Kid, hand over the Red Vermilion Fruit!" Ouyang Qingyuan stepped forward and said in a deep voice.

"The Red Vermilion Fruit doesn't seem to belong to you, does it?" Lu Li remained unmoved.

"Presumptuous!"

Someone shouted angrily and prepared to strike.

But Lu Li was a step faster; he flicked his finger, injecting a point of Source into the body of the Angry Flame Snake trapped by the Spirit-Binding Net.

In an instant, the Angry Flame Snake King's power surged violently.

That power was incomparably wild and lacked any order; amidst the wanton surging, its body expanded by more than tenfold.

"Pill Explosion!"

The six members of the Ouyang Family were instantly shocked.

After a Fierce Beast breaks through to the Martial Spirit realm, it forms an Origin Pill within its body.

That Origin Pill contains the Fierce Beast's lifelong cultivation; as long as it ruptures, it will release an incomparably vast and wild power, causing the beast's strength to surge several times over in a short period!

However, the Origin Pill is the foundation of a Fierce Beast.

Once it shatters, it has no choice but to perish once that power is exhausted.

Unless facing a death threat!

Otherwise, an ordinary Fierce Beast would never perform a Pill Explosion!

And just now, that finger from Lu Li had triggered the Angry Flame Snake King's Pill Explosion, causing its power to continue surging.

They looked at Lu Li, glaring with rage.

But Lu Li just smiled.

"You guys keep playing, I won't disturb you!"

After speaking.

He flashed away.

Seeing this, the six members of the Ouyang Family wanted to intercept him.

But at this moment, the Angry Flame Snake let out a furious roar, suddenly shaking off the Spirit-Binding Net on its body; with crimson eyes and its giant tail sweeping across, it attacked the six Ouyang members with incomparably wild power.

After the Pill Explosion!

This Angry Flame Snake King still had a sliver of intelligence remaining!

It had been forced to this point by these six Ouyang members, and now it only wanted to kill these six before it died.

"Roar!"

"Humans, all go to hell!"

On that giant tail, the power increased by another three points!

"Retreat!"

The Martial Spirit realm powerhouse shouted, and the six Ouyang members all retreated.

But the Angry Flame Snake King's offensive did not stop, and it chased after them.

Forced by necessity!

The six Ouyang members had no choice but to fight!

In an instant, a fierce battle erupted again outside the cave abode.

……

At this moment.

Lu Li had already arrived within the bamboo sea.

His face wore a somewhat mocking expression.

Several days ago, he had learned from Ouyang Xue that there was a powerful Fierce Beast here; to be safe, he had found a technique in the library for triggering a Fierce Beast's Pill Explosion.

That technique was extremely peculiar!

It could use Source as a foundation to inject Source Power into a Fierce Beast's Origin Pill, and then, with the help of exquisite control, completely detonate the Origin Pill; if truly mastered to the limit, one could even use this method to directly kill Fierce Beasts above the Martial Spirit realm.

But this was merely a delusion.

Because besides requiring extraordinary control over Source Power, this method had one major flaw!
