378: Chapter 378 Zhu Guo

Li Daoxuan left the Four Seas Tribe and headed out of the basin.

He did not want to remain in this basin any longer; these tribes would not let him enter, and most of the wild beasts here had already been slaughtered. He needed to find more beast crystals to Cultivate and improve his strength.

At the very least, if he wanted to Breakthrough to the True Martial Realm, he had to possess a large amount of energy, ideally Vicious Beast blood or Vicious Beast crystals.

Of course, these things were not something he could obtain right now; it was better to gather more ordinary wild beast crystals to prepare for Cultivating and improving his strength.

It had already been a few days since he walked out of the basin, and he even felt like someone was watching him from behind.

However, seeing that he was alone and had no resources in his hands, no one made a move against him.

Once he had completely left the basin, they stopped following him.

Li Daoxuan continued to walk south; perhaps in his view, only by heading south could he walk out of the glacier, after all, he had seen a polar bear before.

Perhaps the species in this world were different from other worlds, so the direction he was heading was wrong.

Because the further he walked, the colder the climate felt, and the fewer wild beasts appeared.

Before long, apart from chiseling through the glacier to catch fish, he did not encounter any other wild beasts.

Li Daoxuan walked on with growing despair, until finally, he could not even see fish inside the glacier.

Just as he was hesitating whether to turn back, he unexpectedly saw a valley.

The valley was lush and green. There was no sign of the frozen, snowy world at all.

This discovery filled him with joy; the valley was huge, with an area of several dozen square kilometers. Walking into it, he saw the wild beast he had dreamed of.

After the opponent saw him, it killed its way over without hesitation.

Li Daoxuan saw the reason at a glance; behind this wild beast was actually a fruit tree, and the tree was emitting a rich fragrance, although looking at the color of the fruit, it was not yet ripe.

This was a wild beast similar to an ape; although it looked like a primitive human, one could tell from the white fur on its body that it was not of the Human Race.

The Sword appeared in his hand, and seeing the ape rushing over, the Sword slashed towards its neck without hesitation.

After the ape saw the Sword, it felt a terrifying aura, especially when the Sword slashed towards it, so it quickly retracted its head and dodged this disaster.

But for the battle-hardened Li Daoxuan, this was nothing; the Sword in his hand turned, directly piercing the back of the ape's neck.

With a gentle twist of his hand, a bloody hole appeared on the ape's neck.

"Thump!"

The ape collapsed directly onto the ground, instantly losing its breath.

Li Daoxuan rushed over without hesitation and began to drink deeply from the bloody hole on its neck.

For him, as long as it could improve his Cultivation, he would consume it without hesitation, no matter what it was.

As the ape's blood entered his stomach, Li Daoxuan felt much better.

After digging out the ape's beast crystal, his gaze turned towards the fruit tree not far away.

It was actually a Vermilion Fruit tree, though he did not know how many years old the Vermilion Fruit on this tree were.

He cautiously looked around, quickly disposed of the ape's corpse, and found a place to hide.

With such a treasure here, other wild beasts would definitely come to fight for it; he would hide now, and when other wild beasts arrived, he would launch a sneak attack, which would definitely allow him to gain huge benefits.

"Moo!"

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"

Two grand sounds reached Li Daoxuan's ears; Li Daoxuan quickly hid himself, covering himself up tightly.

As for those Vermilion Fruits, Li Daoxuan no longer had any designs on them.

Judging by the two loud roars just now, the ones eyeing this fruit tree were two Vicious Beasts; since Vicious Beasts were already eyeing it, could he still get any benefits?

At this moment, he could only hope that these two Vicious Beasts did not discover him; otherwise, he would be finished here.

Before long, he saw two behemoths appear beside the Vermilion Fruit tree.

Looking at the fruits on the tree, the two giant beasts could not help but exchange glances, their eyes full of caution, while a flash of killing intent also flickered within.

"Monkey? Rhinoceros?"

After seeing the two behemoths, Li Daoxuan could not help but show a look of surprise.

Because what appeared before him was actually a massive monkey and a massive Rhinoceros.

Li Daoxuan could not help but think of something, and his mouth hung open.

"No way? Could it be the Bull Demon King fighting the Great Sage?"

A Rhinoceros and an ape, both released fierce expressions from their eyes; at this very moment, they both wanted to tear the other apart.

Li Daoxuan held his breath; he also knew that the Vermilion Fruits on the tree were about to ripen. If these two Vicious Beasts started fighting, wouldn't it be an opportunity for him?

If he could reap the rewards of the fisherman, that would be even better; if these two Vicious Beasts fought further and further away and left this place, he could take the opportunity to pluck one or two Vermilion Fruits.

There were quite a few Vermilion Fruits on this tree; counting carefully, there were actually several dozen.

This made Li Daoxuan's heart race; if he could obtain these Vermilion Fruits, let alone Cultivating the True Martial First Grade to the twelfth level, it might even be possible to Cultivate to the next Realm.

But the two Vicious Beasts before him were truly too powerful; just from the aura they emitted, he could tell that he was definitely not their match. If he were to forcibly attack them, he would likely be throwing his life away.

Li Daoxuan could not help but show a bitter smile on his face, and his behavior became even more cautious.

"Moo!"

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"

The ox and the monkey roared at each other; they were emitting powerful auras, as if they could roar the other to death with energy.

Li Daoxuan knew they were showing off to each other, clearly both wanting to monopolize the Vermilion Fruits on this tree.

Li Daoxuan could not help but feel expectant, hoping that these two Vicious Beasts would both be injured, so that he could reap the rewards of the fisherman.

Alright, he was overthinking it; even if these two Vicious Beasts ended up both injured, he did not have the ability to be the fisherman.

Ending up both injured did not necessarily mean both would die; as long as they were still alive, Li Daoxuan would undoubtedly die if he approached them.

Watching eagerly as the two Vicious Beasts killed their way towards each other, the ape revealed its long claws and swiped towards the Rhinoceros's head.

The Rhinoceros moved its head, and its two horns slammed into the monkey's claws.

For a time, both sides traded blows, and their fight was punch-for-punch, very intense.

Li Daoxuan cautiously retreated a few steps; he did not want to be killed by the aftermath of the two Vicious Beasts' battle.

The two Vicious Beasts slowly moved into the distance, constantly attacking each other, but their attacks did not reach maximum intensity.

Because they were afraid that if they fought without restraint, they would damage the Vermilion Fruit tree.

Li Daoxuan saw that they were getting further and further away from the battlefield, and his heart began to stir.

As long as he could get a few Vermilion Fruits and then quickly leave this place, he would definitely be able to avoid the attacks of these two Vicious Beasts.

Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up, staring fixedly at the two Vicious Beasts.

Sure enough, the two Vicious Beasts walked further and further away.

Suddenly, a shattered piece of wood flew towards the Vermilion Fruit tree; the two Vicious Beasts, who had already drifted far away, did not notice it.

"Bang!"

The Vermilion Fruit tree shook, and a few fruits from it fell down, landing directly in front of Li Daoxuan.

Li Daoxuan quickly collected them and retreated backwards without hesitation.

At this very moment, his heart was extremely excited; he did not need to risk approaching the Vermilion Fruit tree at all, as he had directly obtained the Vermilion Fruits he needed.

As he retreated, he glanced in the direction where the two Vicious Beasts had left, memorizing their appearances in his heart.

"I'll let you have those Vermilion Fruits for now. Just wait; one day I will return, and by then, you will use your beast crystals to compensate for my Vermilion Fruits."

He had only discovered the Vermilion Fruits for such a short time, yet he already counted them as his own; this shameless spirit was quite something.

Li Daoxuan's speed was very fast; after confirming that the two Vicious Beasts could not detect him, he left the valley without hesitation and sprinted into the frozen, snowy world.

Inside the ice cave, Li Daoxuan stopped, and his heart could not help but fill with joy.

"One, two, three, four, five, hahaha, five Vermilion Fruits, enough, that's enough."
