Struggle for the Secret Realm
A figure burst forth from the smoke, and before the next attack could arrive, Shen Ge seized the opportunity to escape.
"Stop!"
Two or three people immediately gave chase, and with one person leading the way, the others quickly followed.
"Damn it, it's just a bottle of pills, why are you bastards chasing me like this?" Shen Ge cursed inwardly, then immediately took out the bottle of pills he had collected earlier and threw it to the other side, shouting at the same time, "I've already thrown the pills away, don't chase me!"
Of course, not many people believed it; only three people chased after the medicine bottle.
Seeing the remaining three Late Golden Core Stage cultivators still relentlessly pursuing him, Shen Ge was furious. He immediately slowed down, turned around, and shouted, "Imprisonment!"
One of them was frozen in place, and although the time was very short, a sharp sword shredded his head in that brief moment.
He had been chasing down a Late Golden Core Stage with him, and he seized the opportunity to kill the man who had been immobilized by Shen Ge and steal everything from him.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. The other pursuer immediately stopped and distanced himself from the others. From the sudden counterattack of the person being chased to the betrayal of his companion, everything happened so fast that he couldn't even react.
"Fellow Daoist, your methods are excellent." Shen Ge praised, then immediately turned and ran away. The man glanced at the wary other person, said nothing, and directly turned to join the other two battle groups.
This is the secret realm, and this is the human heart. Some people go down to the secret realm not for the treasures inside, but simply to kill and plunder. After all, it's much harder to steal a treasure in a melee than to ambush and kill someone in a melee.
After consuming a few bottles of healing pills, Shen Ge immediately turned back, but instead of joining the most intense part of the battle, he went to the herb garden.
The medicinal herb garden here covers an entire hill, about thirty acres in size, but there are more herbs than medicinal plants.
After all, it hasn't been maintained for many years; it's already quite good that it hasn't fallen into disrepair.
More than thirty Foundation Establishment experts searched for spirit medicine among the weeds. The weeds in this place all carried a spiritual essence, and it was really hard to tell which were spirit medicine and which were just grass without careful observation.
Moreover, there are some snake-like Demon Beast in this thicket, all of whom are masters at concealing their presence; if you're not careful, they can easily ambush you.
Shen Ge glanced at them casually, then flew towards the place with the most abundant spiritual energy.
Deep within the medicinal garden, three people stood in a tripod formation around a tree.
Shen Ge, who arrived at the scene, took a closer look and, after a moment of scrutiny, recognized what kind of tree it was: a Dragon Blood Tree with three fruits hanging on its branches, and the kind that were about to ripen.
When Shen Ge arrived, the three of them simultaneously released their auras in an attempt to scare him away.
Shen Ge glanced at them and, realizing that the three of them weren't a group, felt relieved.
Facing three people at the same time put him under some pressure, but he was fearless when facing one person, even though he was currently injured.
At this moment, the Dragon Blood Tree began to frantically absorb the surrounding Spiritual Qi; it was about to mature!
Shen Ge unleashed his full power, enlarging the Mountain and River Cauldron and smashing it down, seemingly intending to crush the entire tree to death.
The three of them changed their expressions, glanced at the Dragon Blood Fruit which was almost ripe, and immediately stepped in to block Shen Ge's Mountain and River Cauldron.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shen Ge's Sword Yi fluttered, and he swung Morning Longing in his hand, unleashing a Sword Qi that simultaneously attacked the three of them.
"Arrogant!" one of them shouted angrily.
You, a Late Golden Core Stage cultivator, dare to attack three Late Golden Core Stage cultivators at the same time? Who gave you the guts!
"Fellow Daoists, let's attack together! This man is so arrogant, let's make sure he doesn't leave alive!" It was the middle-aged man who spoke, and he was the first to launch a counterattack.
He took out a Law Treasure flag, and with a flick of the flag, a fire dragon roared and charged towards Shen Ge.
The scorching heat ignited all the surrounding vegetation.
Fortunately, the Dragon Blood Fruit was unharmed, and the person was intentionally controlling the situation.
Seeing this, the other two immediately attacked.
Dragon Blood Fruit is indeed precious, but compared to the wealth of a Late Golden Core Stage cultivator, especially that arrogant fellow, it's not so valuable.
Moreover, the man was injured, though he concealed it well, they still noticed.
A wounded Late Golden Core Stage dares to dream of taking on three opponents single-handedly? Isn't that just courting death? They won't miss this golden opportunity.
Seeing this Shen Ge immediately summoned back the Mountain and River Cauldron to defend against the attack. Although the three attacks were fierce and all were killing moves, they only made the Mountain and River Cauldron sway slightly and did not completely injure Shen Ge.
Suddenly, Shen Ge seized a tiny opening, his Sword Yi flapped behind him, and he charged towards the Dragon Blood Fruit Tree while enduring an attack.
"You madman, you're asking for death!"
With a furious roar, a massive seal, as large as a mountain, crashed down.
Shen Ge quickly Hand Seals, and a Qingfeng immediately enveloped his body, increasing his speed even further.
The Law Technique sword light was chasing after him, but Shen Ge paid no attention. He rushed straight to the Dragon Blood Tree and uprooted it, fruit and all.
Just as the base broke off, two Dragon Blood Fruit were ripe, and the remaining one was almost ready as well.
A Sword Qi aura slashed at Shen Ge's back, but was blocked by the protective barrier of the Mountain and River Cauldron.
Just as the seal was about to hit his head, he suddenly turned into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared.
The seal slammed down, creating a large crater in the ground, but there was no trace of Shen Ge inside.
"Damn it, you bastard, he got away! You're fucking bastard!" The middle-aged man who had attacked first roared in a fit of rage, pounding the ground and leaving the surrounding area riddled with holes.
The other two were also angry, but they didn't show it. After all, they were all adults, and it would be undignified for them to yell and shout.
After glancing at the pit below, the two quickly turned and flew towards the palaces.
In fact, Shen Ge took a huge risk this time. If the amplification from Gale Escape had been even slightly slower, he might not have been able to escape.
But once surrounded by the three of them, although death might not be certain, escaping would be extremely difficult.
At the entrance to the Dragon Palace, Shen Ge slowly revealed himself. He suddenly spat out a mouthful of golden blood, but the blood did not fall to the ground; instead, it was burned away as it left his body.
"This injury will take another two or three years to heal." Shen Ge gave a wry smile, but he wasn't angry about the injury. Compared to this injury, his gains were much greater.
Thinking of Shen Ge, he flew towards the exit, but as soon as he arrived there, his eyes narrowed, and without thinking, he turned around and flew directly into the Dragon Palace to hide.
"Damn it, three Golden Core Peak are actually hiding in this place, playing the victim..."
