Chapter 3829: Primordial Soul Fruit

Ye Bufan led Wu Qimei forward, beginning to explore for Opportunities within the Yuangu Secret Realm.

Originally, it was said that treasures were everywhere here, but after a day and a night of searching, they hadn't found many treasures.

Instead, they encountered danger several times, including natural Formations, spatial rifts, and even a few tenth-tier Primal Ancient Beasts.

On a small mountain, Ye Bufan reached out and picked three Green Willow Fruits, which were also ninth-tier immortal spirit grass and quite valuable in the Middle Heaven Region.

"I'll take these two, and this one is for you."

Ye Bufan handed one fruit to Wu Qimei.

"Young Master Ye, I don't want it. I just wish to leave safely with you."

Wu Qimei waved her hands repeatedly. If not for Ye Bufan's care during their recent encounters with danger, she would likely have perished by now.

"Alright then."

Ye Bufan didn't say much more and simply put them away. After a day and a night of observation, he still hadn't found anything special about this woman.

Just then, a faint fragrance drifted from afar.

The fragrance was very, very faint, but even a hint of it made one feel refreshed and invigorated.

At the same time, an extremely rich Primal Ancient Aura surged from the west.

"Quickly, this means an immortal spirit grass has matured!"

Ye Bufan's spirits instantly lifted. Judging from this phenomenon, it was at least an eleventh-tier immortal spirit grass.

Once such a treasure matured, it would cause a huge commotion, and it absolutely could not fall into someone else's hands.

He grabbed Wu Qimei and transformed into two blurs, dashing forward.

There were many risks here, so even if they were in a hurry, they could only move close to the ground, not daring to fly into the air.

Otherwise, they would become a target for some lurking Primal Ancient Beast or perhaps directly collide with a spatial rift.

In a small valley twenty li away, a small tree about two meters tall bore seven fruits. The rich fragrance and Primal Ancient Aura filled the entire valley.

The fruits were about the size of a fist, divided into Yin and Yang colors, with a Yin and Yang fish eye in the center.

It looked as if someone had carved the Tai Chi Bagua diagram onto the fruits, lifelike, but not yet fully ripe, so the patterns were still somewhat dim.

It was the Primordial Soul Fruit, an eleventh-tier immortal spirit grass, and an extremely rare immortal spirit fruit that enhanced Mental Energy.

In the Middle Heaven Region, it was only recorded in some ancient Primal Ancient texts, and this was its first appearance.

At this moment, a Red-haired woman stood beneath the tree, shielding the Primordial Soul Fruit behind her. It was Jin Meier. After entering the Yuangu Secret Realm, she had been searching for treasures and Ye Bufan, and she happened to be near this fruit tree, so she immediately protected the Primordial Soul Fruit.

However, the fruit was not yet fully ripe, so she did not pick it immediately.

Standing opposite her was a young man in a Daoist robe, holding a long sword, gazing greedily at the Primordial Soul Fruit. It was Dongfang Daoyuan, a Core Disciple of the Tiandao Sect.

There were seven or eight other Disciples in the distance, but none of them dared to approach, watching from afar.

Their strength was insufficient, and they knew such a good thing would not fall to them.

However, they did not leave, as the Primordial Soul Fruit was simply too precious.

Legend had it that even an Immortal Venerable level powerhouse could experience a surge in Mental Energy after consuming it, making it one of the top-tier treasures even in the Yuangu Secret Realm.

Since they had encountered it, they could not easily leave. Perhaps with good luck, they might get a share of one.

Dongfang Daoyuan said, "Fairy Jin, you don't cultivate Mental Energy. Let me have these seven fruits."

"No."

Jin Meier's attitude was firm. "I don't cultivate Mental Energy, but my man does. I won't give them to anyone."

Dongfang Daoyuan frowned. "One cannot be too overbearing. Heavenly and earthly spiritual objects naturally belong to those with virtue.

How about this, give me four fruits, and I will leave immediately."

"Not a single one."

Jin Meier said, "I arrived here first. If I weren't waiting for them to ripen, I would have already picked them. These are mine, and no one can take them."

Dongfang Daoyuan's expression darkened. "Fairy Jin, this isn't right. Heavenly and earthly treasures are for everyone who sees them. How can you monopolize them?"

If it were other treasures, he might have turned around and left, or even not bothered to ask for them, but this Primordial Soul Fruit was simply too precious and too rare.

Not only would his Mental Energy surge after consuming it, but bringing it back to the Sect would be a great achievement, and his position as the future Sect heir would be unshakable.

"Stop talking nonsense. If I say it's mine, it's mine. Get lost quickly."

Jin Meier originally had a fiery temper. The reason she had said so much earlier was entirely out of respect for the Tiandao Sect's Face.

Seeing that the other party was being unreasonable, she directly tore off the pretense.

Although there were seven Primordial Soul Fruits, these were all for her man, and she wouldn't give up even one.

Dongfang Daoyuan's expression grew even colder. As a Genius Disciple of the Tiandao Sect, others had always been respectful towards him. When had he ever received such treatment?

"I'll say it one last time. Give me four Primordial Soul Fruits, or I will make a move."

"A defeated opponent. If you have the ability, come over. Do you think I'm afraid of you?"

Currently, the Tai Chi diagram on the Primordial Soul Fruit was not particularly clear, and there was still a little time before it fully ripened.

So Jin Meier could only guard them and couldn't pick the fruits and leave.

Upon hearing the words "defeated opponent," Dongfang Daoyuan's expression grew even more somber.

"Do you really think that was my true strength? Do you really think my title as the Tiandao Sect's number one Genius Disciple is undeserved?

Since you want to fight, then let me show you my true strength."

As he spoke, his Aura suddenly surged, seemingly breaking through a Bottleneck, and a violent pressure instantly filled the entire area.

"This is actually the strength of an Immortal Venerable!"

Although the surrounding Disciples were a thousand zhang away, they were still forced to retreat repeatedly by the immense pressure.

They had previously witnessed the battle between the two and thought Dongfang Daoyuan had truly lost. Now it seemed he had not revealed his full strength at all.

Terrifying, truly terrifying. To have broken through to the Immortal Venerable Realm before the age of one thousand, no wonder everyone's previous evaluation of him was 'unfathomable'.

Dongfang Daoyuan's mood was also quite complex. As the Tiandao Sect's number one Genius, he had always been highly valued by the Sect and groomed as the next heir.

Three months ago, his cultivation broke through to the Immortal Venerable Realm. The Breakthrough was too fast, and to prevent an unstable Foundation, Wuwei Daojun personally placed a Seal on him, planning to open it after a hundred days.

Of course, this Seal was different from the one within Leng Qingqiu's body; he could break through it whenever he wished.

Now, there were still a few days left until the hundred-day mark, but for the sake of the Primordial Soul Fruit, he had no choice but to Break through early.

"Jin Meier, you brought this upon yourself. You refuse a toast and choose a forfeit."

Dongfang Daoyuan held his treasured sword, his Aura overwhelming. "Now all seven of these Primordial Soul Fruits are mine. You won't take a single one."

In his opinion, although Jin Meier had defeated him before, she was at most in the Half-step Immortal Venerable Realm.

There was a huge gap between an Immortal Venerable and a Half-step Immortal Venerable; the other party could absolutely not be his opponent.

"Hiding your strength, so what?"

Jin Meier pouted and no longer suppressed her Aura. A violent pressure instantly erupted, scattering Dongfang Daoyuan's might.

She was also an Immortal Venerable in the Early Stage, but here in the Yuangu Secret Realm, the rich Primal Ancient Aura greatly boosted her strength, making her appear even more formidable.
