That Man

Haidisi looked closely and saw a fruit, slightly larger than a fist, growing among the leaves on a large branch at the top of the tree canopy. The fruit was nearly spherical, with a purple skin that was crystal clear, shimmering, and dazzling.

At the same time, the fruit also faintly emitted a misty fog.

Nether Fruit!

Finally found it!

A smile of excitement spread across Haidisi's face. Heaven knows how she had spent the last few centuries. If it weren't for the many treasures she possessed, she would probably have perished in the mountain long ago!

At this moment, another powerful Highgod suddenly emerged from the gray mist. This was a powerful ape with golden fur, whose body was two meters tall, with bulging muscles, and he looked extremely powerful.

"Hahaha, Nether Fruit! We've finally waited for your birth!"

Upon seeing the Nether Fruit Tree ahead, the powerful ape was overjoyed and burst into loud laughter.

He had been inside for countless years, waiting silently in the gray mist, cultivating in seclusion. He had waited for a full eighty million years without ever seeing the Nether Fruit. Who knew that the Nether Fruit would appear in the world so unexpectedly this time? It was truly a stroke of luck.

"Heh, Bo Yin'er, that Nether Fruit is still on the tree. Isn't it too early to be happy now!"

Just as the powerful ape was laughing, a stunning woman with long black hair slowly walked out from not far away.

"Belinda?!"

Upon hearing the voice, the ape-like powerhouse turned around and saw the long-haired woman in front of him. His expression immediately changed, clearly indicating that he recognized her.

Haidisi, Bo Yin'er, Belinda discovered the Nether Fruit Tree almost simultaneously. They all watched the other two warily, and none of them dared to make a move.

But before they could continue their standoff, countless excited voices arose, and then seven or eight powerful figures flew out from the gray mist;

The three of them couldn't help but turn pale. How could so many people suddenly appear, and judging from their auras and strength, many of them even carried a huge murderous aura, clearly indicating that they had committed excessive killing in the gray mist.

Those who came over clearly noticed the Nether Fruit Tree immediately!

There was nothing they could do about it; the Nether Fruit Tree was so tall that it was difficult for them not to see such a conspicuous tree.

"The Nether Fruit is mine!"

As more and more people arrived, one of the Highgod finally succumbed to the temptation. His face was filled with fanaticism, and he rushed forward without any regard for anything else.

"Oh no! Stop him!"

Because it was uncertain whether the Nether Fruit had fully ripened, and because the powerful figures present were holding each other back, no one made a move.

However, with this powerful Winged Folk had black wings setting off first without regard for anything else, the other powerful individuals couldn't care less about anything else!

In an instant, everyone, including Haidisi and the other two, rushed forward, eager to seize the Nether Fruit!

But at that moment, a sudden change occurred.

"Rustle"

The branches and leaves of the tree where the Nether Fruit was located trembled as if blown by the wind, and the sound immediately alerted the Highgod who rushed over.

At the same time, the branches and leaves of the fruit trees, which stretched for hundreds of meters, were now glowing with green energy, gradually...

Small green snakes, each about the size of a palm, formed on the green leaves.

So many snakes!

Immediately, someone couldn't help but gasp.

The people who were about to rush over stopped abruptly and tried to escape.

Those who have made it this far know how terrifying these little green snakes are. One or two are nothing, but so many? It's enough to make your scalp tingle.

Whiteside, the Winged Folk powerhouse who flew over first, naturally noticed this as well, but he had already rushed into the range of the Nether Fruit Tree, and it was too late for him to turn around;

He then raised his defenses, a black curved blade appearing in his hand, and charged directly towards the Nether Fruit.

"As long as the Nether Fruit is picked, I'm not afraid of even little green snakes." "Die!"

The first Winged Folk warrior to fly out swung his divine curved blade, the black blade energy filled with an aura of destruction, causing a crack in space as he tried to break through and rush towards the Nether Fruit.

Suddenly, the branches of the surrounding Nether Fruit Tree trembled, quickly enveloping the Highgod who were flying over, leaving them no time to react.

The powerful figures trapped within the branches stared in horror at the countless small green snakes hidden among them. A single snake swooped into the branches, followed by a scream and then silence.

A chill ran through everyone.

This tree can even attack!

In an instant, the powerful figures who had wanted to continue charging forward all stopped in their tracks. Even Haidisi retreated with a gloomy expression. The little green snake could still hold out to some extent thanks to her Ocean Surge Crystal Armor, but she couldn't break free from the terrible restraints of the fruit tree.

Those who rushed over earlier, even the weakest of whom were probably Six-Star Demon experts, were all unable to break free from the seemingly ordinary tree branches. This shows just how terrifying the fruit tree was!

Although there were many small green snakes, everyone had ways to deal with them, but what about this tree?

What should I do?

"What, you're giving up like this? Any later and you'll miss your chance!"

A moment later, a clear, eerie voice came from the branches of the fruit tree, "You'd better hurry and seize the opportunity, that man will be here soon."

That man?

Everyone was startled by the sudden sound. They hadn't noticed any other unusual life forms at first, and they hadn't expected there to be one hidden!

The sound was still ringing out when the true form of the Nether Fruit Tree gradually emerged!

A giant green snake, as thick as an arm and nearly ten meters long, slowly emerged from the trunk of the fruit tree. The green snake coiled around the trunk, its head raised, and its cold, purple-glowing eyes scanned the people in front of it.

The snake's eyes emitted an eerie purple light.

Everyone couldn't help but avoid looking into the giant snake's purple eyes.

"If you don't make a move now, that man will arrive, and you'll miss your chance!" The green snake suddenly let out Evil laugh, beckoning these guys to come and die.

"That man? What do you mean? Isn't the Nether Fruit something to be won through strength?" A middle-aged man with red eyebrows asked with a puzzled look.

"Hahaha! That's right, that's right! The Nether Fruit is fought for based on strength. However, even if all of you here are combined, you still wouldn't be enough to defeat them!" The two sinister snake children of the green serpent looked at the crowd with disdain.

His parents were the companion beings of the Sovereign, so he naturally knew the reason for the birth of the Nether Fruit. In fact, even his parents were afraid of that man and ordered him to run away the moment he saw him, otherwise, he would surely die!

It could be said that this Nether Fruit was created specifically for that one person. The people below were merely spectators.

His duty was to keep an eye on the Nether Fruit and prevent it from being snatched away by others beforehand. With his strength, plus the assistance of the Nether Fruit Tree itself, stopping these people would be no problem at all.

"Even combined? Not enough to fight? Could it be that a powerful expert at the level of Prefect is coming?" The middle-aged man with red eyebrows looked astonished. However, there were so many powerful experts here, many of whom were at the level of Seven-Star Demon, and each of them had their own trump cards. Even if a Prefect the Netherworld were to come, they would not be able to easily obtain this Nether Fruit.

"Prefect?" The green serpent sneered. A mere Prefect, how could he be worthy of such high regard from the Great Sovereign? That one was an invincible, Paragon High-God among the gods!

Even the great Sovereign must be treated differently!
