210: Great Emperor Dao Fruit
Fang Hanyu's gaze swept across the battlefield. Scattered beside the remains of Venerable Dry Bones, Wuying, and the recently self-destructed Murong Qiu, were their Magical Artifacts or some dim personal items.
His expression remained unchanged. With a sweep of his sleeve, an invisible force gathered all valuable spoils of war, his movements swift and decisive, without the slightest hesitation.
He lifted his eyes, his gaze like a tangible force sweeping across the surrounding Void Realm. The probing Divine Thoughts hidden in the shadows recoiled and concealed themselves as if pricked by needles.
This place was surrounded by predators. Many had witnessed this battle, and there was no need to destroy the bodies and traces. It was better to leave now, leaving behind a deterrent.
"Let's go."
Fang Hanyu withdrew his gaze, his tone still concise, but with a hint of subtle heaviness.
The three wasted no time. Xiao Ruobai circulated his Qi and blood; the wisp of black Qi on his left arm faded further under the sharpening of his vigorous War God Body. He grinned nonchalantly and was the first to transform into a dark golden stream of light, soaring into the sky.
Ling Xi lightly flicked her sleeve, and with a flash of green, she followed as if teleporting.
Fang Hanyu, with a swirl of Sword Qi, carried Xiao Pangzi close behind.
Several streaks of light vanished into the distant horizon in an instant, leaving behind only a scarred battlefield, narrating the thrilling battle that had just transpired.
After their figures completely disappeared into the sky, approximately a stick of incense later, and after confirming there was no further danger, several bolder figures, confident in their concealment Divine Ability, stealthily descended like phantoms from different directions, eagerly rushing towards the three fallen kings' remains.
"Quick! See if anything was left behind!"
"Venerable Dry Bones' hidden treasures might still be here!"
"Wuying's personal soft armor is a treasure!"
"Murong Qiu's autumn water sword, though broken, the sword embryo Materials are still top-grade!"
However, after their meticulous search, their expressions all became wonderfully varied.
Venerable Dry Bones' body was empty except for his tattered gray robe.
Wuying's corpse was so clean that not even a single hair remained. Beside Murong Qiu's remains, only the completely shattered fragments of the autumn water sword, devoid of any spiritual essence, were left.
"This... this..."
A Cultivator with a pointed mouth and monkey-like cheeks stamped his foot in anger, unable to help but curse, "Damn it! And they call themselves Prodigies! Descendants of peerless powerhouses! How can you be like this?!
Killing is one thing, but to clean out everything so thoroughly?! Not even leaving a drop of soup?! This is... this is so against the rules!"
Another old man also looked dejected, peevishly kicking a nearby stone: "Isn't that the truth! Three kings! At least leave some scraps! These youngsters are too quick! Even more efficient than professional body-looters!"
The few looked at each other, and in the end, could only grumble and disperse, having gained nothing.
Their impression of those three young fiends, besides powerful and mysterious, now had a new, emphatic addition — "pulling feathers from a passing goose, leaving not a blade of grass behind"!
The wind still whimpered, sweeping across the empty battlefield, leaving behind only a few gradually cooling remains, narrating the cruelty of the cultivation path, and... some people's outrageous "frugality."
At the peak of Zizhu Peak, above the sea of clouds.
Gu Changge, dressed in white, stood by the railing.
His handsome face was calm, but a complex emotion flickered in his deep eyes.
"Xiao Ruobai, this child, his Battle Intent is pure, growing stronger with each battle. His War God Body has infinite potential... he's a good seedling."
He nodded slightly, highly commending Xiao Ruobai's performance.
"Hanyu is meticulous, his Dao Heart is clear, and his Chaos Sword Intent is already taking shape. His future is limitless..."
However, when his gaze seemed to once again see Ling Xi's world-shattering finger, he couldn't help but sigh softly.
"Xi'er... she is, after all, a Great Emperor in Rebirth from a previous life. Her Foundation is too profound. This 'Dao Severing Finger,' though only a superficial skill, touches upon Origin Law... Alas, it's still too conspicuous."
His gaze then turned to Murong Qiu's corpse.
"Time... is the most merciless."
He whispered softly, his gaze cast towards the depths of the sea of clouds, as if seeing the flow of the river of time.
"No matter how talented and brilliant you are, a peerless hero, you will eventually turn into a handful of dust. Murong Qiu... is a lesson learned."
Thinking of Murong Qiu, once a Prodigy, who ultimately succumbed to Lifespan constraints, his Dao Heart clouded, and met such a tragic end, Gu Changge couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion and warning.
On this Heaven-Defying cultivation path, while talent and Opportunity are important, living long enough is the ultimate victory.
Hadn't he himself relied on... well... his own efforts, the daily hard work of signing in... to reach where he was today?
Witnessing this great battle today, especially Murong Qiu's fate, gave him a deeper understanding of the concept of longevity.
With a slight movement of his thoughts, as usual, he silently chanted in his mind: "System, sign in."
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for successfully signing in! You have gained ten thousand years of cultivation!"
"Ding! Sign-in successful! Congratulations, Host, for obtaining 'ten thousand year longevity pill' x10!"
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for additionally obtaining 'great emperor dao fruit' x10!"
Three cold System prompts successively sounded in his mind.
A slight ripple appeared in Gu Changge's calm eyes. Today's sign-in rewards were somewhat different from usual.
"Oh? ten thousand year longevity pill... ten of them?"
He murmured softly, a hint of faint surprise in his tone.
"And these 'great emperor dao fruit'... ten of them?" He couldn't help but raise an eyebrow slightly, a flicker of genuine interest in his eyes.
"Today, I've signed for two new interesting items."
With a thought, the illusory light screen, visible only to him, quietly unfolded.
His gaze did not first land on the great emperor dao fruit, but rather on the ten ten thousand year longevity pills, imbued with vigorous life Qi.
The Medicinal Pills were the size of a Dragon's eye, perfectly round, with profound pill patterns, emitting a refreshing fragrance. They also exuded a Dao Rhyme of accumulated years and enduring vitality.
ten thousand year longevity pill: Consuming it increases Lifespan by ten thousand years. Its Medicinal Properties are mild, with no side effects, and it can be taken cumulatively.
"Increases Lifespan by ten thousand years... mild Medicinal Properties, can be taken cumulatively."
Gu Changge nodded slightly, his expression calm with a hint of satisfaction.
"Hmm, this item is practical; the more, the better."
For him, who pursued longevity, this kind of hard currency that could directly and stably increase Lifespan, its value was self-evident, a truly foundational item.
After scrutinizing it, his gaze slowly shifted to the ten great emperor dao fruits, enveloped in Chaos Qi and radiating dazzling light.
They were not physical objects, but ten dazzling light clusters, wrapped in Chaos Qi and constantly rising and falling. Each cluster seemed to contain a complete Universe of stars, with countless Dao runes appearing and disappearing, emitting a vast aura of Perfection, supremacy, and enough to make all Daos submit!
great emperor dao fruit: A complete Dao Fruit formed by the lifelong Dao insights, Law Origin, and Emperor Realm Luck of a fallen Great Emperor.
After a Cultivator refines it, they can ignore Aptitude Bottlenecks, directly inherit its Dao, and immediately achieve the Great Emperor Realm.
Note: The Great Emperor Realm and potential achieved are related to the original owner of the Dao Fruit and the compatibility of the refiner.
"Directly achieving the Great Emperor Realm..."
Gu Changge softly repeated the description, a playful glint flashing in his deep eyes.
