"Oh ho ho ho... it really is a Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit!"
Zi Yan opened the beast spirit barrier on the ancient altar. When she saw the fruit growing on the sapling inside, she immediately planted her hands on her hips and laughed.
The miraculous fruit was palm-sized, with what looked like an Ancient Void Dragon and a Heavenly Demon Phoenix carved onto its surface. It also exuded considerable pressure.
Zi Yan's eyes lit up at the sight, and she prepared to step forward and put it away. But the little girl had barely moved before a hand suddenly appeared and grabbed her by the back of her collar.
"What's the hurry? Let me study this first. You can eat it once I'm done."
Karn lifted Zi Yan up as he spoke. Although Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruits were extremely rare, this was not the first one to appear, which proved their formation could be repeated. As long as he found the key, he could reproduce them again and again.
"How long are you going to study it? Once the beast spirit barrier is destroyed, I have to keep the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit myself. Only royal blood can keep its medicinal potency from dissipating."
Before Zi Yan could finish, she took a punch to her little head and immediately cried out, "Ow!"
"Don't try to fool me with that. I know better than anyone whether its energy is dissipating."
After punching Zi Yan, Karn tossed her down off the ancient altar. Then he used magic to wrench the entire altar out of the ground and put it away.
If his research succeeded, he would definitely replace his mount with a nine-headed dragon-phoenix. A mount that could travel through the void was far cooler.
There was little worth taking in these Dou Sheng ruins.
