178: The innate spiritual fruit is obtained, the biggest winner!

“Oh no, the innate spiritual fruit is getting away!”

Just as Xia Fan and the other fifth-tier fierce beasts were fighting fiercely, the innate spiritual fruit at the top of the mountain suddenly flew up.

And judging by its direction, it was clearly escaping towards the outside of the battle zone.

It seemed to know the fate that awaited it and wanted to flee.

Instantly, all the fierce beasts stopped their struggle in a tacit understanding and chased after the innate spiritual fruit together.

The innate spiritual fruit transformed into a streak of light, whooshing above the fierce beasts and continuing its flight, but this brought disaster to the low-tier fierce beasts that appeared near the innate spiritual fruit.

These six fifth-tier powerhouses didn't care who you were; any creature, whether it obstructed them or not, as long as it harbored thoughts of fishing in troubled waters, would be killed on the spot!

Xia Fan and the others were fifth-tier powerhouses; a casual strike from them could reduce these creatures to dust.

Therefore, any fierce beast that saw the innate spiritual fruit flying in its direction would usually flee in a panic to avoid suffering a terrible fate.

Suddenly, Xia Fan stopped, a thoughtful expression on his face, as he gazed at the innate spiritual fruit from afar.

Seeing this, Magic Cat asked curiously, “Tiger Brother, why aren't you chasing it anymore?”

“If we don’t chase it soon, the innate spiritual fruit will get away!”

“No hurry!”

In just a few breaths, Xia Fan had fallen behind the other fierce beasts.

However, he unhurriedly took out the eastern emperor bell, striking it with a giant claw, and a profound power instantly erupted.

Space rippled, flashing by, and he instantly vanished from his original position.

When he reappeared, Xia Fan was directly above the innate spiritual fruit, as if it had willingly thrown itself into his arms, being directly drawn into the eastern emperor bell.

“What?!”

Seeing this scene, the other five powerhouses immediately had bloodshot eyes and looks of disbelief, “He… he…”

Some fifth-tier fierce beasts were too stunned to speak, knowing that they had no chance with the innate spiritual fruit and could only stare blankly.

The Giant and Mahamayuri, however, glared at Xia Fan, unable to understand where he had gotten so many treasures.

First, there was the strange jade pendant that could collect weapons, and now a large bell.

Had their earlier struggle been for nothing?

“Alas!”

Upon seeing this scene, Monkey King sighed with emotion, “Before the great change, the two strongest opportunities were all obtained by King Hu. Even in this era of great contention, King Hu remains an invincible existence!”

After speaking, he remained in his spot, but a shadow silently departed from behind him.

Monkey King, just like in their previous life-and-death battle, had left a clone in his place as a disguise, while his true body had directly fled, withdrawing from this competition.

“Hand over the innate spiritual fruit!”

The Giant reacted and instantly roared at Xia Fan.

And his body visibly grew larger again.

At this moment, he was like a descending demon god, exuding an incredibly terrifying aura.

“Hand over the innate spiritual fruit!”

“Bang!”

Amidst his roar, he fiercely smashed a fist towards the eastern emperor bell.

In an instant, a huge sound erupted, the bell's chime already making others' scalps tingle.

“Who do you think you are?!”

At this moment, Xia Fan's eyes once again revealed surging killing intent!

He found this True Lord Successor to be too arrogant, repeatedly acting imperiously, as if he were the most important one here, completely disregarding everyone else.

“Prepare for battle!”

“Rage Berserk Technique!”

With a furious shout, Magic Cat instantly merged with him, and the Rage Berserk Technique erupted with an astonishing aura, instantly elevating his presence again, causing the fierce beasts to exclaim repeatedly.

“He hasn’t even unleashed his full strength yet?!”

“How strong is this guy?!”

Some fierce beasts also saw the Magic Cat and suddenly realized, “No wonder King Hu always carried a cat; it turns out it provides him with a boost!”

“With such a fusion, who can stand against him?!”

Bang!

Xia Fan ignored the exclamations of the fierce beasts and directly swiped a claw at the Giant, the terrifying power contained within it even affecting the surrounding space.

In terms of raw strength, he was not inferior to this True Lord Successor.

“Heavenly Eye!”

“Open!”

The Giant still maintained his 'I am the greatest in heaven and earth' attitude. Now, seeing Xia Fan even more arrogant than himself, he immediately grew furious.

After his loud roar, a crack opened between his eyebrows, from which extremely dangerous auras burst forth.

The Giant, after seeing Xia Fan exert force, instantly shot a beam of light from between his eyebrows, moving at an incredibly fast speed!

Moreover, no one had expected this Giant to possess such a method.

Pfft—

Xia Fan was unable to dodge in time.

He was directly hit by the light beam, and blood flowers instantly splattered on his body.

He was injured!

However, Xia Fan possessed an Undying Body, and after the attack, his body rapidly recovered.

“You truly are stubborn!”

“It's time to act!”

At the same time, Mahamayuri quietly unleashed a Five-Colored Divine Light towards Xia Fan, his eyes filled with greed.

“The innate spiritual fruit is not so easily obtained. Otherwise, why do you think this King didn't immediately unleash extreme speed to take it away?”

He knew very well that whoever obtained the innate spiritual fruit first would become the target of all!

After holding on for a while, Xia Fan knew that continuing like this would be very dangerous.

“It seems I can only run!”

In a one-on-one fight, Xia Fan was not afraid of any of the fifth-tier powerhouses present.

He could even crush them, but now he was being besieged by four fifth-tier powerhouses.

Moreover, there were many secrets deep within Mount Tai, so Xia Fan did not want to linger too long, lest he attract more powerful beings.

At that point, he might truly be unable to escape.

“Open—”

With this thought, Xia Fan directly used the eastern emperor bell. After it opened a spatial rift, he drilled into it, quickly crossing through the void, and left this place of trouble.

“He ran away?!”

The Giant was stunned, then became enraged out of humiliation, “Even if you run to the ends of the earth, I will find you!”

Besides having the innate spiritual fruit stolen, he had also lost his weapon, which had disappeared with Xia Fan this time. How could he not be furious?

“Go and search for him, all of you! There will be a heavy reward for finding him!”

Without him needing to say more, Mahamayuri and the other three fifth-tier fierce beasts, along with other weaker creatures of various sizes, all began searching for Xia Fan in the vicinity, as in their perception, he surely couldn't have run too far!

And the Giant was the most anxious one, after all, the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Spear was one of the more important items from the inheritance he had received, and he had to get it back!

As the various powerhouses gradually left the birthplace of the innate spiritual fruit,

this epic struggle finally came to a temporary close!
