46: Humans steal the colorful lotus!

The seven-colored lotus has now fully matured and is actively drawing in spirit energy from the Yunxia Mountain Range every moment.

It seems intent on transforming the entire Seven-Colored Canyon into a blessed land.

In just a few days, the spirit energy throughout the Yunxia Mountain Range has become incredibly dense.

It's as if an invisible hand has gathered all the spirit energy from the vicinity of the Yunxia Mountain Range, continuously converging it towards the Seven-Colored Valley.

And once the spirit energy within the Seven-Colored Valley reached its peak density, it began to spread outwards, encompassing the Yunxia Mountain.

This influence is long-lasting, and it's believed that soon, the spirit energy throughout the entire Yunxia Mountain Range will be denser than anywhere else.

"Roar—"

"Ow!"

"Caw!"

During this time, excited roars from the fierce beasts could be heard intermittently from within the Seven-Colored Valley.

Many fierce beasts were incredibly surprised to find that their strength had also improved, with almost daily advancements among them.

Everything in the valley was developing in a positive direction!

"Tiger Brother, the fruits are ripe!"

On this day, the Magic Cat suddenly cried out in joyful surprise, quickly drawing the attention of all the fierce beasts.

The fierce beasts saw that the fruit tree was laden with plump, golden-yellow fruits.

Excitement was evident in each of their eyes.

At this moment, Xia Fan strolled over, gazed at the tian yuan fruit tree for a while, then let out a satisfied low growl, "Not bad, this is how a tian yuan fruit tree should perform."

Originally, the tian yuan fruit tree had only produced four fruits, which he and the Magic Cat shared.

Now, the number of tian yuan fruit is greater, and each one is rounder and plumper, naturally containing more energy.

This is because the tian yuan fruit tree, nourished by the dense spirit energy in the valley, matured early and produced a second batch of fruits, with the quality of the fruits also greatly improved.

"Yuan Dali, Centipede Qian Zu, Golden Feather."

Soon after, Xia Fan let out a low growl towards these three fierce beasts, and they stepped forward under the envious gazes of the other fierce beasts, awaiting this exciting moment.

Crack!

Xia Fan casually picked three fruits and then handed them over, his low growl filled with anticipation, "These are what you deserve; quickly consume them and transform them into your own power."

The three peak first-tier late-stage fierce beasts immediately swallowed the tian yuan fruit without a word, and almost simultaneously, a glint flashed in their eyes.

Xia Fan looked at the two remaining fruits on the tree and said to the other fierce beasts, "Don't worry, there's some for you too."

"Once the tian yuan fruit ripens, it won't fall immediately."

"During this time, cultivate diligently, and as long as you reach peak first-tier late-stage, you can all receive one."

"Roar, roar, roar..."

Instantly, the fierce beasts cried out excitedly, then eagerly began to absorb the spirit energy.

Soon after, Yuan Dali and the other fierce beasts successively broke through to the second-tier, causing the entire valley to become restless once again... Imperial Capital, conference room.

"How did the Golden Tiger King appear in the Yunxia Mountain Range in Yunzhou City?"

"Wasn't he in the Great Wilderness Mountain?"

Professor Xia Xinyu was originally experimenting, continuing to research a strengthening agent with fewer side effects on the human body and a higher success rate, when he suddenly received news and attended today's meeting.

After reading the news from Yunzhou City, he immediately looked surprised, "Logically speaking, every fierce beast has its own fixed territory, but the Golden Tiger King... seems to be constantly moving?"

"Have you found out why?"

"No."

Beside him, the Chief Commander shook his head slightly, his eyes also filled with worry, "Currently, we speculate that the Golden Tiger King appeared in the Yunxia Mountain Range because of a rare treasure."

"Professor Xia, when that golden-yellow fruit tree caused an anomaly, the Golden Tiger King was also present, and now he has appeared in the Yunxia Mountain Range, also due to a rare treasure."

"We have reason to suspect that the Golden Tiger King is very intelligent, more capable of thinking than other fierce beasts."

Upon hearing this, Professor Xia Xinyu frowned deeply.

His research on fierce beasts had already yielded significant results, one of the more crucial findings being that some fierce beasts would assess the situation, or rather, rely on their sixth sense, to actively avoid life-threatening crises.

This change made him increasingly worried, which is why he researched day and night, hoping to turn more people into awakened individuals.

"This beast's strength is truly becoming more and more terrifying!"

When he saw Xia Fan wreak havoc and easily kill a Pangolin, Professor Xia Xinyu was immediately shocked, "According to our estimation, that Pangolin had at least first-tier late-stage strength, and it was killed so easily by him?"

"Everyone, look quickly, what kind of spiritual item is this?"

Suddenly, a military officer stood up excitedly, pointing at the large screen and exclaiming, "It... it can actually stir up a spiritual energy storm!"

"Unbelievable, it's truly unbelievable!"

In everyone's view, a seven-colored lotus was using its unique power to gather the spirit energy of heaven and earth, even making the spirit energy dense enough for drones to successfully photograph it.

This was the first time they had ever seen such an extraordinary rare treasure!

Everyone subconsciously thought that only humans were qualified to possess such a rare treasure, but... the Golden Tiger King was right next to the seven-colored lotus.

The Golden Tiger King was an unavoidable obstacle!

"Chief Commander!"

The military officer suddenly turned his head to look at the Chief Commander, "Our human strength is still too weak when facing mutated fierce beasts."

"Moreover, the awakened individuals nationwide are still in their growth stage, yet they are already unable to keep up with fierce beasts like the Golden Tiger King."

"If we can obtain this seven-colored lotus, it will undoubtedly greatly enhance the strength of awakened individuals."

"In future wars against fierce beasts, we will also be able to seize an early advantage!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's faces showed excitement, and they were all moved.

The Chief Commander pondered for a moment, then his gaze fell on Professor Xia Xinyu, "Professor Xia, do you think there's a chance to seize the seven-colored lotus?"

"We cannot openly contend for it."

Professor Xia Xinyu blurted out, which immediately dimmed everyone's expressions, but then quickly gave them hope again, "However, we can find a way to steal the seven-colored lotus without alarming the Golden Tiger King."

Speaking, he looked at everyone present and said, "You should still remember that we have a few awakened individuals who are very suitable for this mission."

"You mean, Liu Tao the Invisibility User, and Wang Xu the Earth escape User?"

The Chief Commander was surprised and quickly thought of these two people.

Professor Xia Xinyu nodded, a glint of light bursting forth in his deep eyes, "But they alone are not enough; their safety cannot be guaranteed."

"Chief Commander, I suggest that Wang Xu and Liu Tao, along with Li Xuan the Perception User, and other special forces soldiers, execute this mission together."

"With Li Xuan's powerful perception as a fallback, their safety can at least be guaranteed!"
