Chapter 926: 926 Chapter: Strange Occurrence Chapter 926: 926 Chapter: Strange Occurrence The dazzling Divine Phoenix Mirage, exuding a sacred and majestic golden light, but only Fang Lin could see that within the depths of that mirage, a swirl of dark luminescence lingered, appearing so eerie and gloomy.
“It's not the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch! Absolutely not!” Fang Lin did not hesitate in the slightest and did not approach the Divine Phoenix Mirage, instead, he immediately turned around and left.
The Divine Phoenix Mirage did not last very long and soon dimmed, but its impact had already been achieved.
“This aura! It is indeed the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch!” The first to arrive at the site were actually Ling Ziwen and a group of people from Alchemy Tao families.
All of their faces were filled with excitement, clearly not expecting their journey to be this smooth.
Ling Ziwen also felt excited and rubbing his hands together, he said, “Don't linger, take the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch and leave immediately, do not let anyone stop you.”
Upon hearing this, everyone focused their minds, nodded, and headed toward the place where the Divine Phoenix Mirage had appeared.
As they approached, they discovered a deep and narrow valley, and within that valley, there was a huge rock.
A strange object, breaking through the rock, had rooted on top of the huge rock, growing upwards, wildly flourishing.
This object, looking like a tree branch, was of a pale golden color, with faint glimmers of light flowing out from it.
Ling Ziwen and the others all showed looks of astonishment, as they believed this was the real Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch, because it matched all the characteristics.
“Huh? How did it bear a fruit?” Suddenly, one of them pointed at the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch and said.
Upon hearing this, everyone was startled, then looked intently, only to see that at the top of the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch, a small black fruit had indeed formed, which would have been quite difficult to notice if not for a closer look.
“Strange, how could the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch bear fruit?” Ling Ziwen frowned as he spoke.
It wasn't just him; the others were also perplexed. According to the records, the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch, though spiritual, should not bear fruit.
Yet the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch on top of the huge rock bore a single black fruit.
“Could it be that this Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch is extremely special, and the spiritual energy condensed into this fruit!” someone speculated.
This person's speculation immediately received the agreement of many others; they all believed it was due to the strong spiritual energy of this Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch that it bore such a fruit.
But Ling Ziwen's brows remained furrowed; he did not so readily assume this. The black fruit gave him an odd feeling, somehow at odds with the resplendent Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch.
“Ling, don't hesitate anymore. Hurry and take that Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch away,” someone by his side urged Ling Ziwen, telling him not to waste time to prevent others from spoiling the opportunity.
Although Ling Ziwen had his doubts, he could not figure out the reason at the moment, and without further thought, he proceeded to walk toward the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch.
It was at this moment that Silver Fox suddenly appeared.
Like a roar of a violent wind, it descended with overwhelming Demon Qi.
All the people present were shocked and turned pale, with several collapsing to the ground, their faces showing despair and terror.
Upon Silver Fox's appearance, it displayed unbeatable strength. With a sweep of its tail, it sent everyone present flying.
With this move, more than a dozen people lost their lives on the spot. The strength of Silver Fox was too overpowering, and among the people from Alchemy Tao families present there, aside from Ling Ziwen, there were only two others with Spirit Bone strength.
Right now, those two Spirit Bone strongmen were merely injured, but the others were unable to withstand Silver Fox's assault and died on the spot.
“Damn it!” The few who had survived, including Ling Ziwen, all had extremely ugly expressions. So many had come, and nearly all were dead in an instant; the loss was too severe. Even if they managed to return alive, they would face tremendous pressure.
Silver Fox looked down disdainfully at Ling Ziwen and the others, its sinister fox eyes then shifting toward the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch not far away.
Upon seeing the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch, the Silver Fox seemed to sense something and fear flashed in its eyes.
The very next moment, the Silver Fox turned tail and ran without looking back.
Ling Ziwen and his two companions were dumbstruck. They had been ready for a fierce battle with the beast, but now the Silver Fox had just fled, leaving them completely baffled.
“Don't worry about that for now, Ling, quickly take the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch and let's leave this place at once!” the two survivors said to Ling Ziwen.
Ling Ziwen nodded and immediately rushed towards the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch.
“Heh heh, heaven and earth treasure are there for the taking, not just for you alone.” A sneering voice rang out, and a figure descended from the sky, blocking Ling Ziwen's path.
Moreover, people from all directions had finally arrived, and the place suddenly bustled with activity.
“There are so many corpses here!”
“It seems they were killed by Demon Beasts!”
“Such a terrifying presence! There must have been a powerful Demon King lingering here before.”
As the crowd arrived and saw the bodies everywhere, they all revealed looks of surprise, but their attention was quickly captured by the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch inside the valley.
“It really is the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch!” Everyone's eyes were filled with greed and longing. They had come for this heaven-sent treasure, and now that it was within reach, they naturally became restless.
Suddenly, many, emboldened by their superior cultivation, took action to seize the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch.
Among them were not a few Spirit Bone experts.
The Spirit Vein Martial Artists present, though not joining the fray, watched intently, looking for any opportunity to take advantage.
They clearly understood that they couldn't compete with the Spirit Bone experts, but that didn't mean they had no chance at obtaining the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch.
In an instant, a fierce battle erupted at the site, with Inner Strength bursting forth and the sound of thunderous explosions continuous and unending.
Yet the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch quietly took root atop a massive boulder, gently swaying in the breeze, appearing so peaceful and serene.
No one noticed, however, that the black fruit at the top of the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch was gradually growing larger without anyone being aware.
Pop!
The fruit split open slightly, and immediately a cloud of black smoke billowed out, quickly dissipating into nothingness, thus going entirely undetected.
One person fell, then two, then three…
More and more people collapsed. At first, the bystanders assumed these individuals were defeated by their opponents, but they soon realized something was amiss.
Some who were just watching from the side also began to fall for no apparent reason.
“Not good! Something's wrong with this place!” someone finally cried out, but as soon as the words were spoken, their face twisted in agony, and they collapsed to the ground, clutching their throat.
In that moment, even the slowest to react understood that something terrifying had happened.
“Blinded by the object before their eyes, their deaths are well deserved.” Far away, Gu Hanshan stood side by side with the woman in the black dress, silent, while the woman chuckled and spoke.
