Mortal's Purple Sky Cave Heaven

Chapter 124: Obtaining Spiritual Fruit, Monsters Surrounding the Mountain
In the blink of an eye, the dazzling green light faded away, and a light green light shield appeared around Nie Zhaonan, covering him completely.

Seeing this, Nie Zhaonan stepped into the formation restriction without any hesitation. Then an incredible scene appeared. This formation restriction that had blocked countless trial-takers had no effect on Nie Zhaonan, who was protected by a green light shield. He easily penetrated through it without any effort and entered the formation restriction.

A huge black staircase that was dozens of feet wide and half a foot high appeared in front of Nie Zhaonan. Nie Zhaonan climbed up the stairs without hesitation, tapped the steps lightly, and jumped towards the higher place.

Shortly after Nie Zhaonan entered the restricted formation, more than ten monsters from the east and west came to the place where Nie Zhaonan was fighting with the monsters. Looking at the blood flowing on the ground, the broken flesh and white bones, their faces all turned ashen.

"What should we do? I didn't expect this human monk to be so powerful. He killed fifteen of our companions by himself in less than a quarter of an hour."

“I don’t know what method he used, but a green light curtain appeared around his body and he avoided the restriction and climbed up the giant mountain!”

A black and red dragon looked at Nie Zhaonan who had entered the forbidden area earlier and said with a twinkling gaze. His tone was filled with worry.

Although they did not arrive here in time, they had been observing this place with their spiritual sense and could naturally feel the extremely fierce fighting fluctuations. In the end, they also saw Nie Zhaonan's back as he walked into the giant mountain with their naked eyes.

"Don't worry. Although this human monk killed all his companions guarding this place, he himself is not in a good condition either. He must have used some secret technique that consumes a lot of energy." A mermaid spoke calmly, not seeming panicked.

In a quick glance, it saw the extremely pale face of the human monk. It absolutely did not believe that he had no injuries.

"Besides, there are only four ways down the mountain. We only need to gather all the monsters in the secret realm here and guard the four necessary roads. Even if he picks the 'Black Spirit Fruit' on the top of the mountain, he can't escape. In the end, the 'Black Spirit Fruit' will still fall into our hands." When saying this last sentence, the mermaid's blue eyes were extremely cold.

Although it appeared calm, it was extremely angry in its heart. After all, the two fellow tribesmen killed by the human monk were its two cousins, who were very caring to it on weekdays.

It had to kill the hateful human monk with its own hands. Even if it pulled out his tendons, dug out his bones, and dug out his elixir, it could not ease the hatred in its heart.

"Brother Mermaid is right. Without further ado, we should send out a signal right now to gather the other monsters and set up a net here!" A Suan Ni beast echoed in a strong voice.

Although its brain was not that smart, it could tell that what the mermaid said made sense.

The dragon and the mermaid both nodded.

Immediately afterwards, three strange roars were heard, and the sound could be heard for hundreds of miles.

There seemed to be some information hidden in the roar. All the monsters that heard the roar roared at the same time, and then immediately fled towards the center of the secret realm.

Even the monsters that were fighting with human monks would immediately retreat and fly towards the giant mountains when they heard the roar.

With the relay of many monsters, the roars of the monsters spread throughout the entire Demon Abyss Secret Realm.

The human monks who heard the continuous roars all looked solemn. Although it was the first time they had seen such a scene, they knew that something big must have happened in the secret realm.

Most of the monks avoided it without hesitation, only a few, who thought they were very powerful and had someone to rely on, carefully patrolled the direction where the sound came from and quietly escaped.

Nie Zhaonan, who climbed up the black giant mountain, was blocked by the formation restrictions. His voice and spiritual consciousness could not penetrate the restrictions. He could only observe through the restrictions with his naked eyes. Naturally, he had no idea that the monsters outside had launched such a big move.

At this time, he was sitting cross-legged on a wide step. He took out several bottles of pills from his storage bag and swallowed them. Only then did his complexion improve and become a little rosy. The magic power in his dantian also began to slowly recover.

He set up two sword formations in succession and continuously injected mana into them. Finally, he used the great magical power of 'transforming swords into threads'. Not only did his mana be used up, but his vitality was also greatly depleted.

As soon as he entered the formation, Nie Zhaonan used his spiritual sense to scan the giant mountain. It was indeed as he saw with the naked eye, there was nothing on the black giant mountain, not even any signs of life, let alone any danger.

But Nie Zhaonan felt uneasy as he could feel that his dantian was empty. So, relying on his worldly lightness skills and the powerful body-refining skills, he quickly climbed a long stone staircase, then sat cross-legged there to recover his magic power.

After most of the day, Nie Zhaonan finally stood up and climbed towards the top of the mountain with a nimble figure.

Although he couldn't fly in the air, the distance of tens of thousands of feet was not difficult for Nie Zhaonan.

Just over an hour later, Nie Zhaonan reached the top of the huge black mountain.

The top of the mountain is a huge circular platform with a diameter of a thousand feet and is extremely flat.

There was nothing around except the four steps leading up the mountain.

Only in the center of the platform stood an ancient tree.

Nie Zhaonan stared at the black ancient tree in front of him and looked at it carefully.

It was only about ten feet high, but one meter thick, like a bucket, standing on the ground. There was no root system where it touched the platform, as if it was formed naturally and tightly attached to the ground.

There were no branches or leaves around the trunk, only three bare branches as thick as chopsticks hanging down from the top.

At the top of the three branches hung three black, fist-sized fruits, which were undoubtedly the "Black Spirit Fruit".

This 'black spirit fruit' was emitting a dark black light, and it looked very extraordinary.

After taking it all in, Nie Zhaonan couldn't help showing excitement. He jumped up without hesitation and just touched the three 'Black Spiritual Fruits'. With a wave of his arm, he picked the three 'Black Spiritual Fruits' and dropped them back to the ground.

Then, he touched the storage bag on his waist, and three jade boxes that were extremely exquisite and made of extraordinary material and emitted a faint spiritual light were suspended in front of Nie Zhaonan.

With a flick of his hand, the lids of the boxes opened automatically. As soon as the three "Black Spirit Fruits" flew into the jade box, the lids immediately closed automatically. Nie Zhaonan also flicked his ten fingers and cast several spells, which sank into the surface of the jade box.

After setting several restrictions on the jade boxes to better preserve the 'Black Spiritual Fruit', Nie Zhaonan put the three jade boxes into the Purple Sky Cave. At this time, Nie Zhaonan raised his head again and looked at the black ancient tree that looked like a tree but was not a tree, but a strange color flashed in Nie Zhaonan's eyes.

"How come the three branches that originally held the 'Black Spiritual Fruit' disappeared? There was no movement at all, and no trace was left behind."

After thinking about it, Nie Zhaonan understood that if the branch that produced the black spiritual fruit had not disappeared, then this ancient tree would not be bare as it is now, but would have been covered with branches at the top.

"Let's try to transplant this ancient black tree into the cave, or see if we can take out its roots." When Nie Zhaonan said this, he didn't hold out any hope.

I just want to give it a try without any regrets. After all, it would be a shame not to get such a rare treasure right in front of me.

If this ancient tree was so easily shaken, it would not have remained here safe and sound for so many years.

With a wave of his sleeves, a golden flying sword flew out and slashed heavily at the junction of the ancient trees on the ground. With a crisp "ding-dang" sound, the golden flying sword was immediately bounced back.

A layer of light curtain also appeared above the ground, covering the ancient tree, leaving no gaps at all.

Nie Zhaonan could only smile helplessly upon seeing this. There was actually a powerful restriction set up at this place, which seemed to be even more powerful than the formation restriction that protected the giant mountain. It really did not give Nie Zhaonan any chance at all.

However, Nie Zhaonan did not give up immediately. He activated the Ming Wang Jue and used his two big hands to tightly hug the trunk of the ancient tree. Even though he tried his best, he could not shake it at all. The ancient tree still stood there motionless.

He drove thousands of gold-eating bugs to continuously gnaw at the light curtain of the formation, but the effect was not very obvious. After half a day, a gold-eating bug could only gnaw out a small pit the size of a grain of rice, and the small pit disappeared immediately after the light of the formation's prohibition flashed.

After trying several methods and still having no effect, Nie Zhaonan decided not to waste his efforts. He sat cross-legged on the platform, took out the elixir and recovered his magic power.

Earlier on the stone steps, after recovering half of his magic power, Nie Zhaonan hurried to the top of the mountain and put the precious "Black Spirit Fruit" that could assist in condensing the Nascent Soul into his pocket.

Now that the spiritual fruit has been obtained, he must consider how to escape from the encirclement of the monsters. Although Nie Zhaonan does not know what those monsters will do, there will definitely be a lot of monsters. It is better to restore his magic power first before making other plans.

On the day when the formation restriction protecting the giant mountain was about to be activated, Nie Zhaonan, wearing a gauze robe and an ancient treasure, hid himself in front of him and quietly came to the stone steps on the side not far from the formation restriction.

Looking at the hundreds of level seven monsters in various shapes and densely packed outside the formation restriction, which made it impossible to get in or out, Nie Zhaonan felt extremely overwhelmed.

Right in front of these monsters, there were more than ten dragons, lions and mermaid monsters, discussing and preparing something together.

Looking at the four mermaid monsters gathered together, Nie Zhaonan felt a sense of unease in his heart.

In the previous battle, he also realized that although this mermaid monster was not as powerful as the dragon and the lion in terms of combat power, it was much stronger than both in terms of intelligence and consciousness.

It seemed that the four monsters were still preparing to perform some secret technique for a joint attack. If the secret technique they were performing was to condense the spiritual power of the four monsters into one, even if they were not completely compatible, and could be enhanced several times, as long as the spiritual power was enhanced to that of the Nascent Soul stage, with a careful search, they would be able to easily discover me who was hiding my body with the ancient treasure of the gauze clothing.

Thinking of this, Nie Zhaonan gave up the idea of ​​hiding here and waiting for the monsters to search the giant mountain together. He would then take advantage of the smaller number of monsters here and then carefully escape.

It's better to be more steady.

It is better to enter the Zixiao Cave Heaven first, avoid these monsters, and when this trial is about to end, come out of the cave heaven and be teleported away.

After finishing his thoughts, Nie Zhaonan, who had been hiding himself with the ancient treasure of the gauze robe, immediately disappeared from the spot and entered the Zixiao Cave.

Nie Zhaonan fed some spirit-feeding pills, rare spiritual medicines, spiritual herbs and the flesh and blood of monsters to the earth-armored dragon, blood jade spider and gold-eating worm in the spirit beast pen, and he also decomposed and processed the corpses of the monsters that had been collected in the cave before.

He entered the attic, sat cross-legged, took out a pill to increase his magical power, swallowed it in one gulp, meditated quietly to practice his qi, condense his magical power, and entered a short retreat.

In the outside world, outside the restriction at the foot of the giant mountain, a series of conversations were heard. From the content, it seemed that these monsters were planning something. However, all this had nothing to do with Nie Zhaonan who was in the Zixiao Cave Heaven.

"Brother Mermaid, with your secret technique this time and powerful spiritual awareness, that human cultivator will have no chance of hiding." A dragon said politely.

After careful observation of the battle scene, these monsters naturally deduced that Nie Zhaonan had used some magical power or secret treasure to hide his body, and launched a sudden sneak attack, trapping the monsters in the sword formation.

Otherwise it would be impossible to explain why they were trapped. You have to know that the escape techniques of these monsters are not slow. How could they all be trapped in a normal fight?

The four mermaids sitting in a circle on the ground just smiled faintly. One of them with the most powerful aura said, "Our spiritual sense is only one aspect. The horse-faced pufferfish can also track its whereabouts through its scent. With the combination of the two, even if the human monk has extraordinary means, he will never escape our search."

The mermaid's voice was powerful and she seemed full of confidence.

"Hahahaha, Brother Mermaid is right!" A Suanni beast next to him said with a big laugh.

As he spoke, he did not forget to cast his gaze to the side, where there was a somewhat strange-looking fish monster. Its body was very flattened and oblong, with a horse face, and a very large nose that pointed forward. Its entire body was covered with gray fur.

This monster looks like a fish but is not a fish. It is exactly the horse-faced pufferfish that the mermaid mentioned.

"There is only a quarter of an hour left until the formation is activated at noon. Let's start practicing the secret technique immediately!" The mermaid with the highest level of cultivation took a look at the sky and gave the order.

After saying that, he immediately opened his fish mouth and spit out a blue demon pill the size of a fist that floated in front of him.
