The Ten-Thousand-Year Dao Source Fruit!
Upon hearing this name, everyone present was taken aback, even Yang Zhen's eyes lit up.
Yang Zhen Yang Zhen didn't know what the Mountains and Rivers Painting was, but he had heard of Dao Source Fruit. He never expected that there would be Dao Source Fruit here, and it was even Ten-Thousand-Year Dao Source Fruit.
Holy crap, this thing is sure to cause a sensation when it appears!
Yang Zhen stared intently at the group of people below, especially Fang Zhongjian and Lu Tianwei, whose eyes were practically gleaming. Clearly, the two were determined to obtain the Ten-Thousand-Year Dao Source Fruit.
With the sealing of the Mountain and River Court about to be lifted, it's impossible for Master Tie to monopolize the Ten-Thousand-Year Dao Source Fruit and the Mountains and Rivers Painting. Given their existence, how could the people of the Heavenly Spring Sacred Land and the Heavenly Snow Sacred Domain remain unmoved?
Even Master Tie himself did not intend to keep the Ten-Thousand-Year Dao Source Fruit and the Mountains and Rivers Painting to himself. He only wanted to open the Mountain and River Court because he understood that this was not his good fortune, but fortuitous opportunity for all people in the world.
Although it was frustrating, there was nothing that could be done; this was the Cultivation World.
If someone were stronger than the people of Heavenly Spring Sacred Land and Heavenly Snow Sacred Domain, and interfered when the Ten-Thousand-Year Dao Source Fruit appeared, the people of Heavenly Spring Sacred Land would have no choice but to accept it.
Everyone tensed up, staring intently at Master Tie. Even Fang Zhongjian and Lu Tianwei no longer tried to stop Master Tie from breaking the seal.
As Master Tie said, it would take a full hour to break the seal, which would give everyone enough time to judge whether Master Tie's words were true or false.
Seeing Master Tie walking alone towards the mountain, Fang Zhongjian turned to Lu Tianwei and said, "Have all the other cultivators inside the Mountain and River Ruins been cleared out?"
Lu Tianwei looked at a fellow disciple beside him, who nodded and said, "It's all been cleared. Now, apart from us, no other cultivators have entered the Mountain and River Ruins."
Fang Zhongjian nodded and said with a smile, " The Mountains and Rivers Painting and the Ten-Thousand-Year Dao Source Fruit are both rare treasures of heaven and earth, one in a thousand years. Let's get our hands on them first. As for how to distribute them, we can discuss that after we leave the Mountain and River Ruins, how about that?"
Lu Tianwei nodded upon hearing this and turned his gaze to Ji Yourong.
Ji Yourong calm and composed, her face as beautiful and unparalleled as ever.
Seeing this, Lu Tianwei spoke to the Fang Zhongjian, saying, "That's only right."
Fang Zhongjian laughed heartily, glanced at the female demon, but clearly didn't take her seriously.
Although the female demon was Peak Mahayana Realm expert, most of the people present were also at the Mahayana Realm. The female demon alone was powerless against the people from Heavenly Spring Sacred Land and Heavenly Snow Sacred Domain.
Seeing the tense atmosphere, Yang Zhen coughed lightly, turned to Feng Lingqiao and said, "Um... I might have something to do later, so why don't you leave first?"
Feng Lingqiao was taken aback and asked in surprise, "You want to steal the Ten-Thousand-Year Dao Source Fruit?"
Yang Zhen glared at him and said, "How can you say that? I just wanted to go in and find my good brother. I'm sure my good brother is inside."
Feng Lingqiao looked at Yang Zhen with some skepticism, then nodded and said, "Then be careful, I'll wait for you here."
Yang Zhen shook his head, about to speak, when suddenly a loud humming sound came, and he hurriedly turned his head to look.
Breaking the seal is no different from Opening Heaven; both involve opening up a small world. The people of Mountain and River Court are sealed in the small world of the ring. Once the seal is broken, they will awaken, which is similar to Captain America being frozen for many years.
Yang Zhen watched with great interest as Master Tie stood beside the mountain, waving his hands and muttering to himself, a strange aura emanating from him.
The roaring sound came from deep within the mountains. When Yang Zhen looked up, he saw that Master Tie had somehow acquired a Spirit Treasure similar to a judge's pen, almost identical to the one that had been severed by the Wuque Sword. However, the aura emanating from it was even more bizarre, and the burst of energy surged out in all directions like ripples.
Rumble!
Deep in the mountains, a series of violent sounds echoed, like the collapse of the Nine Nether Purgatory, sending chills down one's spine.
A Will of Heaven and Earth seemed to gather, and everyone's expression became extremely solemn.
Yang Zhen stared intently at Master Tie's hands, the judge's pen in his hand seemingly writing something, but due to the distance, Yang Zhen couldn't see it clearly.
However, this did not prevent Yang Zhen from sensing that as Master Tie meticulously carved strokes in mid-air, an aura similar to that of a storage ring arose spontaneously, identical to it, only much stronger.
This puzzled Yang Zhen. Could it be that the so-called miniature world within the ring actually operates on the same principle as a storage ring, only more powerful?
Just then, a buzzing sound came, and the entire mountain seemed to tremble. A huge wave of air surged in all directions, causing sand and stones to fly and making everyone sway.
Master Tie stood tall, holding his pen, and with the air currents emanating from the mountains, he forcefully plunged his judge's pen into the mountainside.
Rumble--!
A deafening roar startled everyone. They stared in horror as the entire mountain trembled, layers of soil and rock crumbling and disintegrating. The tremendous rumble shocked everyone.
"The first layer? It really is only the first layer! I never imagined that the Mountain and River Court's seal really has two layers!"
"Look, what's that?"
"Such a powerful aura, could it be the Mountains and Rivers Painting, or the Ten-Thousand-Year Dao Source Fruit?"
"Impossible! Even the first level, breaking through the restriction isn't that simple. Didn't Master Tie say it would take a full hour to break through? How much time has passed?"
A group of people stared in shock at the exploded mountainside, discussing amongst themselves, but their eyes remained fixed on the mountain that was unleashing endless shockwaves.
Just then, Master Tie suddenly slammed his hands heavily onto the judge's pen that had disappeared into the hole, and roared, "Open!"
boom--!
Suddenly, the entire mountain erupted with a terrifying shockwave, as if it had been cleaved in two by a sword. With a deafening roar, a terrifying crack appeared in the middle.
The entire mountain erupted with a violent, all-encompassing shockwave, splitting open from the middle and spreading to both sides.
"Oh no, you old man, you dare to lie to me?"
Fang Zhongjian's expression changed drastically. He rushed towards Master Tie and shouted angrily, "The seal is about to break! The people from the Mountain and River Court are about to come out! Everyone, follow me and charge! We must get the Mountains and Rivers Painting!"
boom--!
Everyone was in an uproar. Upon hearing Fang Zhongjian's words, they all rushed towards Master Tie.
Yang Zhen stared blankly at the sudden turn of events, his eyes filled with a strange expression; something was definitely not right.
Everyone was fooled by Master Tie. Breaking the seal didn't actually take an hour, at least not for him.
After the mountain split in two, a small world was revealed. Amidst the birdsong and fragrant flowers, there was a sense of chaos, clearly indicating that it had been sealed off for too long, evolving into a Desolation Qi.
Everyone rushed towards Master Tie like madmen, but Yang Zhen remained unmoved, staring blankly at the middle of the two halves of the mountain.
I'm totally dumbfounded!
Yang Zhen was truly dumbfounded this time.
In the broken little world, on an incredibly tall tree, sat a large, orange cat, frantically munching on a black fruit.
The next moment, everyone instinctively stopped and looked blankly into the sealed area.
The large orange cat stared blankly at the swarming cultivators, the fruit in its hand falling to the ground with a thud.
"Digging grass?"
Yang Zhen's eyes nearly popped out, and he looked completely bewildered.
" Shameless Cat?"
