Chapter 614: Stealing the Fruit, Getting Discovered

Three factions were locked in battle, primarily the Shijue Sect and the Qian Yuan Sect joining forces to oppose the imperial family!

Liu Liyue was very strong; currently at the second level of the Pi Hai Realm, she could actually unleash the strength of the sixth level of the Pi Hai Realm while below the Peak!

Even Xiao Fan, watching from the shadows, could not help but click his tongue in amazement.

If it were purely the first level of the Pi Hai Realm, he would have the confidence to defeat her, but if her strength reached the sixth level of the Pi Hai Realm, he felt he should just forget about it!

Furthermore, despite Liu Liyue being a woman, she fought even more desperately than any man!

Those golden spear beams, shot after shot, continuously pierced through everything, causing huge deep pits to appear on the ground wherever they landed!

She alone suppressed two young Prodigies at the first level of the Pi Hai Realm!

Xiao Fan brought Wei Zhongshan along, concealing their auras as they slowly approached the spirit tree!

They moved very slowly, intending to sneak over quietly!

The three factions had only just started fighting, so their spiritual power was still ample, and they hadn't yet fought with true ferocity!

Xiao Fan planned to strike and seize the fruit only after their battle reached a fever pitch and they were truly enraged.

Wei Zhongshan followed cautiously behind Xiao Fan, operating his Spirit Concealment Art to the extreme, terrified that even the slightest slip-up would occur.

In a place like this, if he were discovered, he felt he might as well just wait to respawn in three months!

"Fight!"

"Spear Pierces the Soul!" Liu Liyue shouted, and her golden spear roared. The spear body seemed to transform into a golden Dragon, directly piercing through the chest of the youth leading the Shijue Sect!

"Pfft."

This Shijue Sect leader, at the first level of the Pi Hai Realm, was instantly severely injured!

At the same time, the youth leading the Qian Yuan Sect seized this opportunity to launch a sneak attack, striking Liu Liyue's back with a terrifying fist light!

"Pfft."

"Damn it!" Liu Liyue coughed up blood. She had golden armor protecting her body, so she wasn't seriously injured. With a fierce expression and surging Battle Intent, she pulled out her golden spear and whipped it across the air, sending the Genius at the first level of the Pi Hai Realm who had sneak-attacked her flying back a hundred zhang!

"Go to hell!"

Having been sneak-attacked, Liu Liyue was furious. She gave up on fighting the Shijue Sect youth and turned around, aggressively closing in on the Qian Yuan Sect man who had just attacked her with Killing Intent.

"It's about time…" Xiao Fan said. The three factions had only been fighting for a quarter of an hour, but they were already fighting for their lives, consuming a great deal of spiritual power.

As for the spirit tree, all three factions feared that the shockwaves of their battle would destroy it, so they had kept a certain distance between their combat positions and the spirit tree!

And this distance now favored Xiao Fan!

The two of them operated their Spirit Concealment Art and approached silently. The surroundings were filled with the sounds of battle and slaughter; people were constantly being severely injured, and some were even dying and being teleported away!

The various sides were fighting in a rage, and no one noticed the auras of Xiao Fan and Wei Zhongshan!

Just as Liu Liyue was heatedly fighting the two first-level Pi Hai Realm cultivators!

Xiao Fan and Wei Zhongshan arrived at the side of the spirit tree!

Without a word, the two immediately began stuffing handful after handful of the spirit tree's fruit into their Storage Pouches.

These fruits were just as Wei Zhongshan had described, resembling grapes and containing vast amounts of spiritual power within them.

Although the spiritual power contained in a single fruit was not as good as the dragon blood grass, there were just so many of them!

This single spirit tree had at least over three hundred fruits!

The two frantically stuffed them into their Storage Pouches!

"Not good!"

Just then, the youth leading the Shijue Sect, whose chest had been pierced, shouted aloud, his gaze turning toward the spirit tree!

He had previously tampered with the area near the spirit tree so that if anyone approached, he would be able to detect it immediately.

He had been afraid of someone appearing to steal the spoils halfway through!

He hadn't expected that it would actually happen!

"Kill!"

Just as the Shijue Sect leader was shocked, the oblivious Liu Liyue rushed toward him wielding her golden spear, sending him flying with a single strike!

"Pfft."

The Shijue Sect leader coughed up a mouthful of blood. Seeing Liu Liyue rushing over again, he hurriedly shouted, "The fruit is about to be snatched away!!"

"What?" Liu Liyue was startled and hurriedly turned her head.

Besides her, the Genius leading the Qian Yuan Sect, whom she had just sent flying, also looked toward the spirit tree!

They saw Xiao Fan and Wei Zhongshan desperately stuffing the spirit tree's fruit into their Storage Pouches!

"Damn it!!"

"Who is that!"

"Thieves!!"

All three factions discovered Xiao Fan and Wei Zhongshan and could no longer be bothered to fight each other. After all, the purpose of their battle was precisely for this spirit tree fruit, and yet someone dared to steal it right under their noses!

Even Liu Liyue, at this moment, shared a common enemy with the people from the other two sects, and they all charged toward Xiao Fan and the other!

"Damn it, why is it so hard to pick!" Wei Zhongshan's face turned livid as he cursed. Every time he picked a fruit, it required a massive expenditure of spiritual power. In the time he had spent, he had only managed to pick twenty or so!

Xiao Fan had picked a few more than Wei Zhongshan, but in the time spent, he had only picked about thirty-something.

With the three factions charging over, a flash of Battle Intent appeared in Xiao Fan's eyes!

In the current situation, one option was to run away directly; these people would definitely not be able to catch up to him!

The second option was for him to block them for a moment, allowing Wei Zhongshan to pick more fruit!

Wealth is sought in danger; with such a supreme treasure before him, Xiao Fan did not want to give up!

"I will hold them off, you quickly pick the fruit!" Xiao Fan said in a deep voice. As he spoke, the tianzhu sword had already appeared in his right hand!!

Wei Zhongshan was stunned, but he had no time to think about anything else, and frantically picked the fruits without sparing his spiritual power!

In Xiao Fan's view, he didn't need to defeat these people, he only needed to block them for a moment!

He felt he could still manage that!

"Spirit-Devouring Moon Slash!"

Xiao Fan shouted explosively, pouring one-third of his own spiritual power into the tianzhu sword!

The black sword body of the tianzhu sword radiated mysterious and unpredictable runes, which spread across the entire blade!

Xiao Fan raised the tianzhu sword high and slashed down with one strike!

"Slash!"

A terrifying black sword Qi slashed head-on toward the crowd charging toward him.

"Danger!!"

This group of people were all young Geniuses from Yihuang Province, and they all sensed extreme danger from this black sword Qi!

They all made their moves, intending to join forces to shatter this Sword Qi from Xiao Fan!
