Chapter 589: Void Fuse Fruit
Translator: KurazyTolanzuraytor Editor: Jay
At dawn the next day, Duan Ling Tian, Su Li, and Long Yun bid their farewells to Chi Ming and the others.
After that, the three of them left the courtyard together.
Luo Zhan and Chen Shao Shuai had complicated gazes as they looked at the figures of Duan Ling Tian’s group of three that were disappearing into the distance.
Only after the figures of Duan Ling Tian’s group of three vanished before their eyes did Luo Zhan and Chen Shao Shuai look at Chi Ming and say, "Vice Dean Chi, we won’t be following you back… We intend to go wander about for some time by ourselves."
Chi Ming nodded and didn’t stop them.
Because he knew that it would be of no use even if he did.
Sword Young Master and Crazy Young Master that stood before him had obviously already decided to leave, and he wasn’t surprised by their reactions.
After all, the numerous young experts that had appeared in the Darkstone Empire’s Young Genius Competition were truly too outstanding, and they surpassed Luo Zhan and Chen Shao Shuai in every aspect.
So Luo Zhan and Chen Shao Shuai were surely feeling extreme pressure from it.
Chi Ming looked at Luo Zhan and said, "Go… I’ll help you notify Guild Master Luo."
On the other side, Duan Ling Tian’s group of three headed towards the Imperial palace.
"Duan Ling Tian!" On the way, Long Yun had suddenly looked towards Duan Ling Tian with an eye that contained traces of flickering bright light within it. "If you want to make a move against the Azure Forest Tri-Sect in the future, then you must defeat me first!"
Duan Ling Tian was first stunned after he heard Long Yun, and then he said indifferently, "Is there a need?"
Is there a need?
Duan Ling Tian’s indifferent words caused Long Yun’s face to instantly flush red.
"At any rate, I will absolutely not stand idly by if you make a move against the Azure Forest Tri-Sect!" Long Yun spoke with a deep voice.
"Do as you please." Duan Ling Tian shrugged and had an indifferent expression.
"Hmph!" Su Li who walked side by side with Duan Ling Tian and had always never spoken grunted coldly, and he glanced indifferently at Long Yun. "Long Yun, you better not join in when Duan Ling Tian goes to take revenge for his sect. Otherwise, I won’t stand idly by as well!"
"Besides that, I won’t let Master allow Martial Uncle Saber to interfere in this matter." Su Li’s words were resolute and decisive, and it caused Long Yun to be flustered and exasperated.
He really did have the intention of asking his Master to protect the Azure Forest Tri-Sect.
But now, he was able to discern that Su Li was speaking seriously, and if Su Li’s Master really intended to stop his Master, then his Master would really have no way to help him.
Moreover, after the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties, it was still unknown if they would continue staying in the Darkhan Dynasty or not.
The entire journey continued without a single word spoken.
In next to no time, Duan Ling Tian’s group of three had gathered with the other six people at the Imperial Palace of the Darkstone Empire.
"Duan Ling Tian!" Zhong Nan took the initiative to greet Duan Ling Tian as he was extremely grateful towards Duan Ling Tian showing mercy.
Duan Ling Tian lightly smiled in reply and introduced Su Li to Zhong Nan.
"Su Li, if I don’t rely on the energy of the earth, I’m afraid it’s difficult for me to defeat you," Zhong Nan said to Su Li.
"You’re being modest." Su Li shook his head.
"I’m speaking the truth… Concept is different from Force. Only a Force of nature is able to affect speed! Whereas in terms of concept, no matter if it was a natural Concept or a weapon Concept, both of them can affect speed. Zhong Nan spoke earnestly. "For example, sword cultivators like you… Some formidable sword cultivators are able to rely on their Sword Concept to even seem as if they’d transformed into swords as their bodies flashed out, and their speed is so fast that it’s shocking!"
Right at this moment, a figure descended from the sky and attracted the attention of everyone.
Mo Xuan!
Mo Xuan still wore black clothes, and he stood alone in the distance like a lone wolf.
Not long after, someone from the Imperial Palace made an appearance and led Duan Ling Tian’s group of nine into a place that was heavily guarded.
This place was a pavilion, and guards could be seen standing every few steps apart.
"This cultivation of these guards…" Duan Ling Tian’s Spiritual Force stretched out, and he noticed a shocking thing.
All these guards were actually existences at the Void Prying Stage.
"What place is this?" Duan Ling Tian was secretly shocked in his heart as he looked at the pavilion before him.
Whoosh!
Right at this moment, a figure descended from the sky.
A middle aged man in a white robe with gold edges and a mole between his brows stepped down from the sky, and two old men followed behind him like shadows.
"King Yong!" Instantly, the young geniuses present bowed respectfully to King Yong, whereas Duan Ling Tian nodded to King Yong as well.
"Mo Xuan!" After King Yong descended before Duan Ling Tian and the others, he looked at Mo Xuan who stood at the side by himself, and with a raise of his hand, his Origin Energy coiled around a thing before slowly pushing it to arrive before Mo Xuan.
This was a glittering and translucent spirit fruit that emitted a wave of a fragrant aroma, and the aroma caused one’s mind to be unable to refrain from being slightly at ease.
"Void Fuse Fruit!" Someone couldn’t help but exclaim in shock.
Instantly, many people looked with envy at the spirit fruit Mo Xuan held in his hand.
Duan Ling Tian stared at the Void Fuse Fruit with a burning gaze.
"Have you prepared the thing?" Under the gazes of everyone present, Mo Xuan looked at Duan Ling Tian and asked indifferently.
Duan Ling Tian nodded, and with a raise of his hand, a Spatial Ring shot out into Mo Xuan’s hand.
Whoosh!
Mo Xuan raised his hand and passed over the Void Fuse Fruit to Duan Ling Tian.
This scene caused everyone, including King Yong, to be astonished.
"What did Duan Ling Tian use to exchange with Mo Xuan? Mo Xuan was actually willing to give away the Void Fuse Fruit."
"Even though the Void Fuse Fruit is useless to Mo Xuan… But there seems to be not many things that can arouse Mo Xuan’s interest."
"Unbelievable!"
…
The people present were mostly curious about what Duan Ling Tian passed over to Mo Xuan.
After Duan Ling Tian received the Void Fuse Fruit, under the numerous gazes of envy and jealousy, he directly shoved it into his mouth and swallowed it with a few gulps, whereas the medicinal strength of the Void Fuse Fruit had been temporarily stored by him within his body, and he would arouse the medicinal strength when he cultivated.
"As expected of the Void Fuse Fruit, its medicinal strength is really shocking… It’s indeed comparable to the total of the Void Refining Fruit and Void Reserve Fruit." Duan Ling Tian felt the medicinal strength of the Void Fuse Fruit and he was shocked in his heart.
"I ought to be able to rely on this to break through to the ninth level of the Void Prying Stage! I must break through to the Void Initiation Stage before the Dynasty Martial Competition begins in the Darkhan Dynasty, and then get into contact with the other eight possessors of the jade swords to enter the Sword Monarch’s treasure vault…" Duan Ling Tian’s eyes flashed as he planned in his heart.
"If I want to become eminent in the Dynasty Martial Competition, it would undoubtedly be wishful thinking if I don’t possess a cultivation at the Void Initiation Stage and above! Even if it’s an ordinary Void Initiation Stage martial artist, it might not be possible to become eminent and obtain the qualification to participate in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties!" Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.
Duan Ling Tian’s goal was to stand out during the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties and obtain the favor of the powers from the Foreign Lands.
He wanted to use the powers of the Foreign Lands as his stepping stone to think of a way to withdraw the great treasure left behind by the Rebirth Martial Emperor.
After that, he would cultivate with great effort and possess the strength capable of moving unhindered through the entire Foreign Lands, and even become a supreme Martial Emperor that looked down on the world.
"There’s also Ke Er and Little Fei. They’re both in the Foreign Lands now… If I want to see them, then I must walk out of the Darkhan Dynasty and head to the Foreign Lands!"
In the blink of an eye, a few years had passed, yet Duan Ling Tian missed his two fiancées even more.
He was most concerned about if they were well now…
"Duan Ling Tian!" A voice transmission sounded out by Duan Ling Tian’s ears, and it shocked him back to his senses.
"What?" Duan Ling Tian looked at Su Li.
The earlier voice transmission was precisely sent into his ears by Su Li.
"Duan Ling Tian, what did you use to exchange for the Void Fuse Fruit from Mo Xuan?" Su Li asked curiously.
Subsequently, he added. "Of course, if it’s inconvenient for you, then just take it as if I never asked."
"There’s nothing inconvenient about it." Duan Ling Tian shook his head and replied via voice transmission. "Actually, it’s nothing… I just took out a grade four spirit weapon and exchange it for his Void Fuse Fruit."
Su Li was his friend, so a small matter like this was nothing to conceal.
Grade four spirit weapon!
Duan Ling Tian’s casual way of saying it caused Su Li’s pupils to be unable to refrain from constricting.
"You… You have a grade four spirit weapon?" Su Li’s voice transmission was filled with shock.
"Su Li, I’ll gift you a grade four spirit sword before the Dynasty Martial Competition," said Duan Ling Tian.
"Gift me? A grade four spirit sword?" Su Li was shocked, and after staying silent for a while, he asked. "Duan Ling Tian, you… Could it be that you know a grade four Weapons Craftsman?"
"Kind of." Duan Ling Tian casually replied.
"Kind of?" Su Li was stunned, and then he shook his head and said, "I don’t need you to gift a grade four spirit sword to me… I have one myself. But my Master didn’t allow me to use it before the selection during the Dynasty Martial Competition."
Duan Ling Tian came to a sudden understanding, and he sighed to himself at the same time.
It’s so much different when you have a Master from the Foreign Lands.
A grade four spirit sword is easily obtained.
"In this way, that Long Yun should have a grade four spirit saber as well?" Duan Ling Tian asked.
"It’s not only a grade four spirit saber… According to my knowledge, he ought to even possess a grade three spirit saber in his possession. That spirit saber was prepared for him by his Master to be used during the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties," said Su Li.
Grade three spirit saber?
Duan Ling Tian was instantly petrified, and he only asked after a short moment. "So in this way, you have a grade three spirit sword in your possession as well?"
"Yes." Su Li lightly nodded.
"Comparisons are really odious…" Duan Ling Tian laughed bitterly.
He was at most able to produce a grade four spirit weapon now, yet he wasn’t able to produce a grade three spirit weapon.
"After I consumed the Void Fuse Fruit, it ought to not be a problem to break through to the ninth level of the Void Prying Stage… Another step in improvement is the Void Initiation Stage! So long as I break through to the Void Initiation Stage and condense a grade three Weapon Flame, then I’ll be able to refine a grade three spirit weapon." Duan Ling Tian felt at ease with a quick thought.
Presumably, so long as he was able to gather the materials for a grade three spirit weapon before the Dynasty Martial Competition, then he would be able to possess a grade three spirit weapon.
"Follow me." Meanwhile, King Yong spoke out, and he brought along Duan Ling Tian’s group of ten to head towards the pavilion ahead.
Everywhere they passed, the guards that were guarding outside moved aside.
"Aren’t you going to inspect it?" Duan Ling Tian looked at Mo Xuan who walked at the other side and asked via voice transmission.
Because he noticed that after he passed the Spatial Ring that contained the grade four spirit sword to Mo Xuan, Mo Xuan didn’t withdraw it from the Spatial Ring to confirm it was a grade four spirit sword.
"Is there a need?" Mo Xuan replied with a question.
Duan Ling Tian’s face froze, and then he glanced deeply at Mo Xuan as the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but curl into an arc.
This Mo Xuan is slightly interesting!
