Picking Peaches
The giant bear exuded Yao Qi, and the golden light on its body was extremely dazzling. Every time it struck, the earth shook and the mountains trembled, which was extremely astonishing!
The bear and the snake were fighting fiercely.
The giant bear was incredibly strong, but the snake was even more powerful. The Gale Wind it stirred up with a casual movement was extremely fierce, sending sand and stones flying, and its momentum was astonishing!
Chen Wang was startled to see the two beasts fighting and was about to retreat when the giant bear let out a low roar, its mouth seemingly containing a sun! As the light grew brighter, the giant snake also sensed something was wrong.
A deafening roar shook the earth, as if the entire forest trembled, followed by a blinding light. That terrifying power slammed into the Black and White Great Snake! The mere release of that power caused Chen Wang's Qi and Blood to surge.
It's only because he has a strong physique and powerful mental strength that he can withstand it.
This power came too suddenly!
But after a dazzling light, the giant snake was unharmed. However, it was also aroused by this and twisted its body to pounce on the giant bear!
It had been guarding the Fire Apricot all along, and only now has it unleashed such terrifying power!
Wherever it passed, huge marks were left, and no matter how hard the stone was, it was instantly reduced to dust! At this moment, the Battle Armor on the demonic bear's body disappeared, and its aura was much weaker than before, as if it was somewhat weakened after unleashing its ultimate move.
Surprisingly, instead of injuring the large snake with only black and white markings, it actually aroused its ferocity! It quickly turned and left, taking off at an extremely fast pace, and the large snake quickly gave chase!
Chen Wang's eyes lit up. Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately used his Earth Walk ability—fortune favors the bold! The Demon Snake, capable of repelling four Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators and fighting so fiercely against this giant bear, clearly held the upper hand.
Such an opportunity is rare! Chen Wang's figure vanished instantly. His Earth Walk ability left no trace of Law Technique, and was completely silent.
He pushed his power to its limit, moving underground as if he were in flowing water, and quickly arrived at Fire Apricot's location.
During this period, his spiritual energy continued to spread outwards, sensing the location of Fire Apricot.
The Fire Apricot contains abundant and extremely pure Spiritual Qi, which can be felt even underground.
Although Chen Wang didn't understand why the giant snake didn't swallow the Fire Apricot but instead planted it by the water, he couldn't care less at this moment and directly activated his Earth Walk ability to the maximum.
Then he reached out and plucked the Fire Apricot! Even with spiritual detection, he hadn't revealed his form from beginning to end; he had simply stretched out his hand.
Even ordinary Earth Escape Technique) cannot achieve this; the body is either entirely underground or entirely on the ground. While Earth Walk-Earth Escape Technique, it has this advantage.
Chen Wang grabbed the Fire Apricot directly in his hand, feeling as if he were holding a furnace.
He quickly put it away and then used his Earth Walk ability to leave.
Almost at the same time, the large snake, whose body was only black and white, sensed that the Fire Apricot had been taken away.
His aura suddenly erupted, and a sharp beam of light pierced the air, crashing into the ground! The Fire Apricot hadn't fully ripened yet and needed to be planted near water to absorb water-elemental Spiritual Qi. This place had the most abundant water-elemental Spiritual Qi, which was why the Demon Snake had stayed here. But now, someone had stolen its fruit! Boom! The sharp beam of light blasted a large crater in the ground. Chen Wang was already trying his best to activate his Earth Walk abilities, but he was still hit by the aftershock of the light, causing his Qi and Blood to surge.
It felt like someone had hit me on the back with a heavy hammer, and my internal organs felt like they had all shifted!
However, Chen Wang did not use any magical Law Artifact or defensive talismans, but instead endured the attack, so no aura of his remained.
The giant snake sensed something; its reaction was extremely sharp, yet it didn't detect any Law Technique aura.
It stopped its pursuit underground and instead swayed rapidly through the mountains, trying to find the Fire Apricot from before! Chen Wang used his Earth Walk ability to escape, and after revealing his true form, he used his Wind God ability to flee towards the Market.
Earth Dragon are well-suited for concealment, and so is the Wind God.
Chen Wang finally made his way back to the Market area, and only when he returned to his room did he truly breathe a sigh of relief.
"We can't go into the mountains anymore for a while, lest we be targeted by that giant snake."
Chen Wang thought to himself.
The aura of that Fire Apricot was extremely strong. Chen Wang did not take it out from the Market, but instead pushed the Bronze Gate in his mind and went into the Winter.
The reason we don't go directly from the mountains to the Winter is because we don't want to be in the mountains again the next time we go out.
That snake was the strongest he had ever seen.
During the earlier turmoil, Chen Wang had seen two Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators fighting, but their momentum was far inferior to that of this Demon Beast.
In the Winter, at the Qiongqi Mining Shelter
Chen Wang reappeared at the villa in the Winter, his eyes filled with excitement. "The Fire Apricot that can improve one's constitution is now in our hands!"
Although he had been hit by the aftershocks of the Demon Snake's power, causing his internal organs to shift and him to vomit blood.
But it was all worth it.
He originally didn't want to get involved; it was like snatching food from a tiger's mouth.
However, when the Demon Snake went to hunt down the giant bear, Chen Wang seized the opportunity without hesitation.
He took out the Fire Apricot, which looked almost exactly like a regular apricot, only slightly larger. Holding it in his hand felt like holding a furnace.
"This is really good stuff!"
Chen Wang was overjoyed.
His Spirit Root aptitude is extremely poor, which has caused his refining speed of medicinal power to be very slow recently. However, if he obtains this Fire Apricot, once his cultivation aptitude is improved, his future will be limitless! "A rare treasure, only the bold will obtain it!"
Chen Wang thought to himself.
That situation was actually extremely dangerous. If he had revealed his presence, given the Demon Snake's abilities, I could have probably killed him even from underground!
Moreover, if the giant snake hadn't been enraged by the giant bear's powerful attack, it probably would have sensed Chen Wang's move the moment he made it.
Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Wang took a bite of the Fire Apricot. The Fire Apricot was sweet and warm, making him feel warm all over.
"If this gets out, I'll probably be killed the moment it gets out!" Chen Wang thought to himself.
Treasures that can improve cultivation aptitude are incredibly valuable once they are circulated, definitely no less valuable than Foundation Establishment Pill, and perhaps even more so!
The flesh of the Fire Apricot is sweet and has no seed. Chen Wang originally only wanted to take a bite, but unexpectedly, the Spiritual Qi of the Fire Apricot began to emanate outward. Upon seeing this, Chen Wang swallowed the Fire Apricot directly!
If you get a treasure but don't dare to eat it, you might as well give up on cultivating immortality!
Chen Wang hardened his heart.
