189: Millennium Golden Fruit

The moment Mu Feng saw the fruit tree, he immediately thought of the Golden Fruit, an ingredient for the dustfall pill.

As for whether it was or not, he would only know after further investigation.

Two thousand meters was neither too close nor too far.

After more than ten seconds, Mu Feng arrived near the spiritual fruit with the Flying Purple Patterned Scorpion.

The spiritual fruit was located in a small valley beneath the dense forest's miasma.

Perhaps due to being a depression, the miasma had not spread to the bottom, allowing Mu Feng, who had been suffering from the stench of the miasma, a moment of relief.

He had the six Little Lizards provide cover nearby, while Mu Feng himself slipped into the valley bottom.

After bypassing two huge boulders, he saw a fruit tree standing there, bearing a Golden Fruit.

This was precisely the goal of his trip.

The moment he saw the fruit, Mu Feng immediately activated his Spiritual Eye Divine Power to investigate its information.

[Name: Golden Fruit Tree]

[Age: Millennial]

[Introduction: A fruit tree that prefers to grow in low-lying areas. Its fruit is golden, resembling gold.]

"Nice! It really is a Golden Fruit!"

"And it's a millennial golden fruit."

After reading the fruit tree's introduction, Mu Feng immediately became excited.

With this millennial golden fruit, his trip had not been in vain.

Now, he only needed to gather the remaining millennial yu yang flower, and he could begin refining the dustfall pill he desired.

However, Mu Feng was not in a hurry to pick it.

Generally speaking, such spiritual fruit are usually guarded by Yao Beasts.

Although he had not yet discovered the Yao Beast guarding this place, he dared not be negligent in the slightest.

Not being able to detect it with Divine Sense did not mean it wasn't there.

After all, there were too many things in this Cave World that could block Divine Sense detection.

He himself had two or three such items.

"Hmm, let's use the Spiritual Eye to look."

Unable to detect it with Divine Sense, Mu Feng then used his Spiritual Eye Divine Power to investigate the Golden Fruit Tree and its surrounding environment.

However, after scanning several times, he still found nothing.

Logically, finding nothing should be a good thing.

But he just couldn't feel happy.

He had a feeling of being watched, making him uncomfortable all over.

Mu Feng trusted his sixth sense greatly.

Many times, he had relied on this feeling to escape danger.

"I must have missed something."

"One more time!"

Thinking this, Mu Feng fully activated his Spiritual Eye Divine Power.

Only when his eyes turned deep and dark blue did he slowly begin to examine the places he had just looked at, Over and over again.

This time, the investigation was very thorough.

He even saw through the bark of the Golden Fruit Tree.

"Huh, why can't I see through the bark here?"

"Could it be…!"

Upon discovering the anomaly, Mu Feng's eyes lit up.

He immediately input his Magic Power and activated the Black Emperor Blade within his body.

"Go!"

Activation complete, Mu Feng raised his hand, and a black light shot out from his body.

Whoosh!

The Black Emperor Blade swiftly cut across.

Pfft!

Bright red blood immediately gushed out.

Immediately after, the "bark" broke into two pieces and fell down.

After being injured, the Yao Beast hidden on the Golden Fruit Tree could no longer remain invisible.

This was a four-legged lizard.

No, to be precise, it was a Poison Gecko.

It had skin similar to the Golden Fruit Tree, crimson eyes, and powerful limbs.

Looking at where it had just fallen, it wasn't wood at all.

It was clearly a gecko's tail.

But Mu Feng remembered that he had aimed at the opponent's head.

Suddenly, Mu Feng recalled the characteristics of geckos.

"Tail autonomy!"

Legend has it that when geckos are threatened, they will voluntarily detach their tails to escape.

He hadn't expected it to be true.

And this detached tail seemed quite impressive.

It would detach itself when it received a fatal injury.

Pfft!

While Mu Feng was surprised, the Poison Gecko's detached tail miraculously grew a new one!

"What strong self-healing ability!"

"It can even Limb Rebirth."

Such strong self-healing ability was something Mu Feng had never seen before.

He had thought the self-healing of the previous Demon Servant was already impressive, but he hadn't expected this Poison Gecko to be even better.

It could actually Limb Rebirth directly.

Rebirth was much more powerful than self-healing.

The tail's Rebirth speed was very fast, almost instantaneous.

Mu Feng had no way to stop it.

Pfft, pfft!

After self-healing, the Poison Gecko opened its mouth, and a stream of dark green venom sprayed towards Mu Feng.

Mu Feng naturally wouldn't be foolish enough to test its strength.

He activated his Cloud Stepping Boots.

With a few consecutive jumps, he avoided the venom attack.

Sizzle~

Mu Feng avoided it, but the large rocks beside him suffered.

Just a trace of it caused them to be corroded and perforated by the super-strong venom.

The toxicity was far stronger than any Poisonous Scorpion he had seen before.

Clap, clap, clap!

When the venom attack failed, the Poison Gecko opened its mouth, and a bright red tongue immediately lashed out at Mu Feng's body.

Its skills were somewhat similar to the Five-Colored Mottled Frog he had encountered earlier.

It had both venom attacks and tongue attacks.

Unfortunately, its Realm was too low.

Its speed was not on the same level at all.

Mu Feng easily avoided all of its attacks with a few quick movements.

With its attacks failing repeatedly, the Poison Gecko immediately puffed up its belly.

Soon, a dark green orb was immediately spat out from its mouth.

Just as Mu Feng wondered what it was going to do, the green orb spun and violently smashed towards him!

Its speed was very fast.

The previous tongue attacks were like a small witch meeting a great witch compared to it.

The sudden burst of attack caught Mu Feng off guard.

Fortunately, Mu Feng was not encountering this situation for the first time.

Unable to avoid it, he simply didn't.

With a thought, a sword shield immediately rose around his body.

After advancing to the Late Stage, the defensive power of these sword shields was already close to that of a Magic Treasure.

He hadn't tested its defensive capabilities when fighting the One-Eyed Demon last time.

Now, he could see the defensive effect against ordinary Yao Beast attacks.

Boom!

The green orb collided with the dark green sword shield.

The powerful impact shattered the nearby rocks into dust.

For a moment, Mu Feng's figure was obscured.

Seeing its attack succeed, the Poison Gecko revealed a human-like smile.

It was clearly confident in its orb attack.

However, just as it thought Mu Feng was finished, dozens of dark green Flying Swords flew out from the center of the explosion, counterattacking towards its location.

Pfft, pfft!

The Poison Gecko was flustered by this attack.

Before it could even dodge, its body was pierced.

Splat!

The next second, the Poison Gecko's tail broke off again.

And its injuries immediately recovered.

"Hmm?"

Mu Feng looked surprised.

This Poison Gecko's tail autonomy skill was too buggy.

It had nullified fatal damage twice in a row.

And it looked like it was about to grow a third tail.

This time, Mu Feng no longer hesitated.

While the opponent was recovering from its injuries, he flicked his hand, and hundreds of dark green Flying Swords immediately went to kill the Poison Gecko.

Splat!

The Poison Gecko used its tail autonomy escape again.

However, this time what broke off was not its tail, but its hind leg.

"Ah?"

"It can play like that too?"

If the previous two tail detachments were within Mu Feng's expectations, then this arm detachment truly surprised him.

The key was that after its arm detached, its tail grew back again.

It seemed it could avoid another fatal injury.

This talent was too amazing.

If the opponent were a little stronger, he would really have a hard time.

Unfortunately, the strength gap between the two sides was a bit too large.

Mu Feng guessed that its Realm should be similar to the Five-Colored Mottled Frog he had encountered earlier.

Perhaps a little stronger.

After all, that later orb attack was indeed quite powerful, possessing the strength of a Fourth-tier Yao Beast.
