"The Red Moon Main Fruit!"
The sa thought flashed through everyone’s mind.
In nature, when Spiritual Objects of the sa kind, like Spirit Flowers or Spirit Fruits, gathered together, there was a small chance that a special specin would be born among them.
Take this Red Moon Main Fruit, for example.
This Red Moon Main Fruit had absorbed far more Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power and Sun and Moon Essence, making its effects much stronger than any ordinary Red Moon Fruit!
But this fruit...
There was only one!
In an instant, the group, which had been so amicable just monts before, grew wary of each other.
Their previous harmony had been due to a lack of conflicting interests. Even if they had only found regular Red Moon Fruits, everyone would have gotten at least one.
But now, faced with such a Heavenly and Earthly Treasure, who could remain calm?
Who wouldn’t want it for themselves?
"If Brother Yan hadn’t noticed the unusual grassroots, none of us would have found this place. Therefore, I propose we give the Red Moon Main Fruit to Brother Yan. What does everyone think?" Li Nan said generously.
"That won’t do." Yan Liu’s eyes darted around. "Brother Li, you have the highest Realm. You’ve contributed the most to our hunt for Magical Beasts. The main fruit should go to you. Don’t you all agree?"
Suddenly, everyone except for the youngest, Yu Yunwei, started exchanging polite refusals.
Watching them, Yu Yunwei sneered to herself from the side.
’They all clearly want it for themselves but are putting on this false display of courtesy, afraid they’ll be ganged up on if they try to take it all.’
Just as they were pushing the responsibility onto one another, Black Cloud Mountain shook violently.
The group tensed up!
"ROAR!"
The roar of a Magical Beast echoed through the mountain forest.
Yu Yunwei and the others leaped away at the sa ti.
CRASH!
A giant, red-furred baboon descended from the sky, smashing a large crater where they had just been standing.
"ROAR!"
The great baboon beat its chest forcefully, roaring at them.
"A Mad Fla Baboon?!"
Cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of Li Nan and the others.
An adult Mad Fla Baboon’s power could reach the Sixth Grade, comparable to a Martial Cultivator in the Dragon Gate Realm.
"Don’t be afraid! This Mad Fla Baboon is seriously injured. If we work together, we can definitely kill it!"
Just as the others were thinking of retreating, Yu Yunwei shouted.
They cald themselves and looked closer. Sure enough, they saw blood flowing from a wound on its red-furred thigh, and there was also a significant gash on its abdon.
It was also panting heavily, looking as if it had expended a great deal of energy.
If they weren’t mistaken, it must have just fought another Magical Beast.
"Everyone! This Sixth-Grade Magical Beast is an opportunity! We can’t let it pass!"
Li Nan yelled.
The Demon Core of a Sixth-Grade Magical Beast could be exchanged for a considerable amount of Spirit Stones, and it was also a material for crafting Sixth-Grade Magical Artifacts.
’If I can kill this injured Mad Fla Baboon and get the Red Moon Fruit, reaching the Dragon Gate Realm will be just around the corner!’
"Indeed! Our path of cultivation is one of defying the heavens. How can we retreat over a small obstacle like this!"
"Listen to Brother Li! Let’s go!"
In an instant, everyone took out their Lifebound Magical Artifacts and charged the Mad Fla Baboon.
The Mad Fla Baboon roared, swinging its arms and generating a gust of scorching wind.
Li Nan, holding a longsword, thrust straight for its face, but it swatted his blade aside with a single palm.
At the sa ti, Qu Xiaotao and Yan Liu attacked from the sides. The glint of a blade and a stream of Magic landed on its back simultaneously, but only managed to open shallow wounds.
Qin Hai circled to its rear and tried to attack its injured leg, but it kicked him away, sending him crashing heavily into a tree.
Seizing the opportunity, Yu Yunwei threw out several talismans. The Talisman Paper ignited in mid-air, transforming into Ice Cones that shot toward the Mad Fla Baboon’s eyes. It tilted its head to dodge, but the Ice Cones grazed its cheek, leaving a bloody gash.
"ROOOAR!!!"
The enraged Mad Fla Baboon pounded the ground with its fists, growing even more furious. It lunged forward, throwing a punch at Yu Yunwei.
But Yu Yunwei tapped her toes on the ground and dodged it gracefully.
Li Nan got to his feet and charged again. He gathered Spiritual Power at the tip of his sword and thrust it directly into the wound on the baboon’s abdon.
"ROAR!!!"
The Mad Fla Baboon cried out in pain. It grabbed Li Nan’s sword with one hand and slamd its other fist toward his chest.
’Not good!’
Li Nan quickly activated his Protective Magical Artifact to block the blow, but the impact still made him cough up blood.
"Brother Li, I’ll help you!"
Yan Liu and Qu Xiaotao took the chance to attack its arms, their blades flashing.
Qin Hai scrambled up from the ground and ford a Sealing Technique with his hands. Leaves gathered into chains and wrapped around the Mad Fla Baboon’s legs. It struggled and broke the chains, but its movents were slowed for a mont.
"Vile beast, die!"
Yan Liu intended to use the opening to chop off its head.
But who would have known the Mad Fla Baboon would tilt its head back and spit a mouthful of raging fire? Unable to dodge in ti, Yan Liu was instantly burned to ashes.
"HACK! COUGH!"
After using one of its Lifebound Divine Abilities, the Mad Fla Baboon gasped for air, its body growing weaker.
Qu Xiaotao seized the chance to throw three Poison Needles, which accurately pierced the wound on its leg.
The Mad Fla Baboon’s body swayed, and it let out a pained roar.
Li Nan gritted his teeth against his injuries, leaped into the air, and brought his sword down with all his might. The blade’s light sank into the baboon’s shoulder.
The Mad Fla Baboon swung its arm wildly, swatting Li Nan away.
Qu Xiaotao stabbed toward its heart again, but it blocked her with its arms.
Just then, Yu Yunwei suddenly appeared behind it. She viciously plunged her short dagger into the wound on its abdon and twisted hard.
Yu Yunwei poured her Spiritual Power into the dagger.
Under Yu Yunwei’s control, the dagger abruptly exploded. The shattered fragnts tore through the beast’s internal organs.
THUD.
The Mad Fla Baboon fell to the ground, its life completely extinguished!
"It’s dead! Hahahaha, it’s dead!"
Li Nan laughed heartily, walking excitedly toward the Mad Fla Baboon.
Although Yu Yunwei had dealt the decisive blow that killed the Mad Fla Baboon...
...she stepped back, looking as if she had no intention of fighting for the Demon Core.
Li Nan dug out the Mad Fla Baboon’s Demon Core.
Sunlight filtered through the blood-red Demon Core, casting a glow on Li Nan’s face.
But at that very mont, a flash of sword light shot past Yu Yunwei.
In an instant, the longsword in Qin Hai’s hand had pierced through Li Nan’s chest.
Li Nan looked down at the longsword protruding from his body.
He had also considered finding a chance to kill the others, but he never expected soone to be so impatient as to strike now!
Qin Hai flicked his longsword upward, cleaving Li Nan’s body in two!
"Qin Hai! You!" Qu Xiaotao was shocked, gripping her longsword tightly.
"Let’s both drop the act."
Qin Hai turned around.
"Everyone wants the Red Moon Fruit and the Sixth-Grade Demon Core for themselves. I just happened to make the first move.
Xiaotao, there are only three of us left.
If you and I fight, we’ll both end up badly injured with nothing to gain.
So, I propose we kill Yu Yunwei together. That way, you take the Red Moon Main Fruit, and I’ll take this Sixth-Grade Demon Core. How about it?"
As Qin Hai finished speaking, Qu Xiaotao looked over at Yu Yunwei, killing intent slowly filling her eyes.
