Junior Brother Ye, It Looks Like You're in a Bit of Trouble!
"Are there any restrictions?"
Ye Beixuan had just flown to the cave entrance when he discovered the restriction on the entrance, but this restriction was not a problem for him at his current level.
"To actually use such a restriction to hide the Mystic Yellow Fruit, no wonder it was discovered in my previous life. It seems the person who set up this restriction wasn't a very skilled expert."
As he spoke, he took out a Restriction-Breaking Pearl from his storage ring, a bead he had found on the black market.
In the past year or so, although Ye Beixuan's cultivation level has not improved much, he has encountered many fortuitous events and obtained many treasures, which has greatly boosted his confidence to travel thousands of miles to find the Mystic Yellow Fruit.
"Break!"
Ye Beixuan shouted and hurled the Restriction -Restriction-Breaking Pearl at the cave entrance.
Rumble!
With a loud bang, the Restriction-Breaking Pearl destroyed the restriction at the cave entrance, blasting a large hole in it.
It's done!
Ye Beixuan looked at the cave entrance in front of him and saw Dao Light flying towards him from the broken barrier.
"This is the mark of a restriction!"
He squinted, muttering, "I didn't expect the person who set up this barrier to have such a trick up their sleeve. It seems this place is not safe to stay any longer."
Ye Beixuan flew into the cave and suddenly unleashed several palm strikes, clearing the way ahead.
At the same moment he broke the restriction, in a city a hundred miles away...
An old man suddenly opened his eyes. Looking at his shattered jade tablet, his face changed drastically. "Damn it! The restriction on the Mystic Yellow Fruit has been broken! No, I absolutely cannot let that Mystic Yellow Fruit fall into someone else's hands. That's the treasure that helped me enter the Dao Integration Realm!"
Having said that, the old man shouted, "A Da, A Er, A San!"
"Your subordinate is here!"
Three figures instantly appeared in the room, each possessing the cultivation level of the peak of the Heavenly Origin Realm.
The old man said with a stern expression, "You will all accompany me on this journey."
"Yes, Elder!"
The four of them vanished into the night in an instant, flying towards the cliff where the Mystic Yellow Fruit was located.
On Ye Beixuan's side, looking at the Mystic Yellow Fruit he had just obtained, the retreat route quickly appeared in his mind. More than two hundred miles away was Cloud Mist City at the foot of the Cloud Mist Sect Mountain, where there were experts at the Dao Integration stage.
As long as I escape into Cloud Mist City and remove the mark from my body immediately, the person who set up the restriction will not be able to find me.
Thinking of this, he immediately flew towards Cloud Mist City. His decision to go to Cloud Mist City was not a spur-of-the-moment one. After all, Cloud Mist Sect was a Half-Saint power. If they had discovered this Mystic Yellow Fruit, they would definitely not have set up such an ordinary protective barrier.
Moreover, in the previous life, the Cloud Mist Sect only realized that such a spiritual object existed right under their noses after the Mystic Yellow Fruit was born.
In the end Mystic Yellow Fruit was snatched away by a prodigy from a holy land, and the Cloud Mist Sect became a laughing stock among many forces. The spiritual treasure was right under their noses, yet they failed to discover it.
Two hours later, it was already dawn. Ye Beixuan had flown two hundred miles and was only twenty miles away from Cloud Mist City. He would arrive at Cloud Mist City in no time. He looked at Cloud Mist City getting closer and closer and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
Just then, he suddenly felt himself being locked onto by a powerful aura.
Ye Beixuan used his divine sense to sense that several auras were getting closer and closer to him, and would catch up with him in no time.
He didn't turn back, but instead used his escape technique to increase his speed, shooting towards Cloud Mist City like an arrow released from a bow.
Behind him, the old man saw Ye Beixuan's speed suddenly increase, his face turned ashen, and he roared, "You thief, don't you dare run away!"
The shout echoed for dozens of miles around, and the cultivators on the ground all looked up. They saw four cultivators chasing a young cultivator in the sky.
"Isn't that the First Elder of the Zhan Clan of North Mist? Why is he chasing after a Dao Foundation Realm cultivator?"
"Hmm, that kid seems to be no ordinary person. He's only at the Foundation Dao Foundation Realm, yet he can move so fast."
"What's the use of speed? How can Dao Foundation Realm escape the pursuit of the Spirit Nurturing Realm?"
"It seems pretty good to see such a good show so early in the morning."
"..."
On the official road Cloud Mist City, a burly man was riding a majestic white tiger with piercing eyes, slowly heading towards Cloud Mist City.
Wherever the man and the tiger went, passersby avoided them like the plague. The fierce white tiger with its piercing eyes exuded the aura of Heavenly Origin Realm beast, terrifying the onlookers.
Hearing the loud shout from the sky, the burly man on the tiger's back instinctively raised his head and looked up.
When he saw the young cultivator's appearance clearly, the nonchalant look on his face vanished instantly, replaced by excitement.
Fifth Junior Brother, I never expected to run into you here.
The fierce man riding the tiger was none other than Cao Youqian. Seeing Ye Beixuan getting closer and closer to the ground, he reached out and grabbed Ye Beixuan, pulling him directly to his side.
Caught completely off guard, Ye Beixuan couldn't help but shout in his heart when he sensed that terrifying power, "Damn it, there are enemies ahead too!"
His instinctive reaction was to reach for the Sword Jade at his waist.
"Junior Brother Ye, it seems you're in a rather precarious situation!"
A familiar yet unfamiliar voice interrupted Ye Beixuan's actions. He looked closely and saw a familiar face smiling at him.
Ye Beixuan sensed the aura getting closer and closer, and hurriedly said, "Second Senior Brother, there's no time to explain. Let's hurry towards the city, or we'll waste Master's Sword Qi for nothing."
Cao Youqian chuckled, pointing to the group of four who had flown over from a distance. "You don't actually think these four good-for-nothings require me to use Master's magic weapon, do you?"
He spoke in a low voice, but just loud enough for everyone around him to hear him clearly.
In an instant, all eyes fell on Cao Youqian.
After a moment of surprise, Ye Beixuan came to his senses and tentatively asked, "Senior brother, there are experts at the Spirit Nurturing Realm on the other side. Can you really handle them?"
In his memory, Cao Youqian was only a cultivator at the True Fate Realm. Even if his senior brother could challenge opponents of higher levels, it was impossible for him to cross two levels in a row.
"No problem, just stay here and don't move. I'll take care of them right away."
After Cao Youqian finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Grand Elder Zhan and his group. "It was you few who bullied my junior brother?"
Grand Elder Zhan frowned slightly as he looked at the man riding a Heavenly Origin Tiger Demon.
This young man's cultivation level is clearly only at the early stage of the Heavenly Origin, but he has a mount with a higher cultivation level than him. He must come from an extraordinary background and be a disciple of a powerful force. It would not be a good thing for the Zhan Clan to confront him. It seems that the only option is to try to gain some benefits from him.
He Fist Dao, "Sir, it was your junior brother who stole my treasure first. As long as he hands it over, I can let this matter go."
Ye Beixuan was about to explain when Cao Youqian raised his hand to stop him, saying with a smile, "Just now, my junior brother handed his storage ring to me. I wonder what treasure you lost?"
"Mysterious..."
Grand Elder Zhan realized something was wrong after uttering just one word. If he were to utter the words "Mystic Yellow Fruit" here, the Zhan Clan, with its strength, would not be able to protect it.
"Hand over his storage ring so I can inspect it and I'll know."
"Hehe."
Cao Youqian chuckled, "No need for such trouble. How about this, I'll take all the treasures out of his storage ring and show them to you."
After saying that, Cao Youqian took out a thousand-year-old spiritual herb from his storage ring.
Is it this Seven-Star Fruit?
Grand Elder Zhan shook his head as he looked at the Seven-Star Fruit.
"So that's the Nine-Bend Spirit Ginseng?"
Cao Youqian then took out a spiritual ginseng from his storage ring.
"No..."
Grand Elder Zhan was about to deny it, but upon smelling the medicinal aroma from the ginseng, he was certain that it was a thousand-year-old spiritual herb, and to him, this ginseng was more valuable than the Mystic Yellow Fruit.
"Really?"
Cao Youqian's lips curled slightly as he stored the Nine-Bend Spirit Ginseng in his storage ring, and said unhurriedly, "Aren't liars punished by heaven?"
Upon hearing this, Grand Elder Zhan immediately realized he had been tricked. "Boy, you're making a fool of me!!!"
