Chapter 1372: Chapter 739: The Gamble, March’s Divine Skills Revealed

Once the Kunyuan Immortal Fruit appeared, the atmosphere in the Five Elders Palace suddenly became exceedingly heated.

The younger Divinity Transformation cultivators all gazed eagerly and excitedly at those Immortal Fruits, wishing they could swallow them in one bite.

If a Divinity Transformation True Monarch could extend their life by a thousand years, what would that mean? It meant that their chances of breaking through to the Returning to Void Realm in the future would be several times higher than others.

It could almost be said that a single Kunyuan Immortal Fruit could often create a Half-Immortal of the Void!

Why does the Huang Family of Five Emperor Mountain hold the Kunyuan Meeting? In a sense, it’s also out of sheer necessity.

If the Huang Family didn’t understand the need to “share opportunities,” then… it would inevitably provoke “public outrage.”

One must know that public outrage cannot be provoked, or it would surely lead to the downfall and eradication of one’s family!

In short, holding the Kunyuan Meeting is mandatory, and the invitation to the meeting is equivalent to an “entry ticket.”

Only newly risen forces with strong capabilities and “collective recognition” from other established families can obtain this precious “entry ticket,” such as the Divine Artisan Zhao Clan.

For those in the Returning to Void Realm, an Immortal Fruit that extends life by a thousand years, though very precious, is not considered a heavy treasure to be sought after.

For example, older Returning to Void cultivators like Marquis of Wind and Di Wuque had tasted the flavor of the Kunyuan Immortal Fruit millennia ago.

The life-extending effect of a Spirit Fruit works only the first time it’s consumed; afterwards, eating more has no effect at all.

Zhao Sheng reached out and took the Five-Colored Spirit Fruit, observing its transparent skin and crystalline flesh, as if made of frozen jade, with strands of five-colored spirit light swirling within, resembling lively fish.

However, oddly enough, he couldn’t see the presence of a fruit core, only a touch of colorful light halo deep within the Immortal Fruit.

Just as Zhao Sheng picked up the Kunyuan Immortal Fruit, Di Wuque first glanced at Master Huang Shi, then suddenly looked at Zhao Sheng, speaking with a fake smile: “Zhao Kid, do you dare to have a duel with me?”

“Why wouldn’t I dare? The stake of the duel isn’t this Kunyuan Immortal Fruit, is it?” Zhao Sheng coldly smiled, immediately guessing the other’s intention.

As he spoke, he looked meaningfully at Master Huang Shi.

“Haha, Taoist Zhao, you are indeed a smart person. In that case, I won’t hide it anymore. Let’s use the Kunyuan Fruits in our hands as a wager. However, this space is too cramped for us to fully spread our arms and legs. Why not have our underlings fight on our behalf? It will add some excitement to this grand event!” Di Wuque’s eyes twitched slightly, very straightforwardly revealing his thoughts.

Hearing this, Zhao Sheng was taken aback, feeling a bit unexpected, but upon further thinking, found it reasonable!

The other party must have calculated everything in advance before speaking; as soon as he speaks, one would inevitably fall into his trap.

No, perhaps it’s not just the Diwu Clan, but a “tacit understanding” among all the established forces present, aiming to collectively suppress the rising “newcomers.”

Zhao Sheng raised his head, his gaze sweeping over the crowd of Half-Immortals of the Void, seeing everyone smiling warmly at him, seemingly very expectant.

He pondered silently, his gaze suddenly falling on Zhao San Yue and Zhao Qingfeng sitting on the lower tier.

Zhao San Yue appeared calm and confident in her look, while Zhao Qingfeng, in contrast, had a serious expression and nodded slowly to him.

Di Wuque’s eyes flashed, suddenly shouting deliberately: “Why hesitate so long? Could it be… you’ve lost your nerve?”

“Haha! I just find it unfair, why don’t you and I have a fight? The cultivations of the juniors are rather shallow, and fighting might easily get out of hand; if there’s any death or injury, it would be hard to conclude peacefully.” Zhao Sheng laughed, slowly rolling up his sleeves, as if ready to fight at any moment.

At this time, Master Huang Shi suddenly laughed heartily, jokingly quipped: “No, no!.. The Five Elders Palace can’t withstand the two of you fussing around. I have a proposal. Let the juniors who participate suppress their cultivation to the same realm, so it would be fair. How do the two of you feel about that?”

Di Wuque, upon hearing this, said without thinking: “What’s so hard about that! I agree, Zhao Kid, what about you?”

Just as the words fell, a cold voice suddenly sounded in Zhao Sheng’s ear: “Ancestor, please send me to the field, this battle will surely be won without loss!”

Zhao Sheng’s eyes flickered, he looked down at Zhao San Yue, who gave a firm nod.

Seeing this, he no longer hesitated, decisively nodded: “Alright!”

“Good, truly straightforward!” Di Wuque clapped and laughed, yet a chilly gleam suddenly flashed in his eyes.

“Xuan Ye, go and meet the experts of the Zhao Clan, remember to stop at the point, do not take lives!”

As soon as the words fell, a towering black-armored giant with a face like a red date stood up from the lotus platform below.

“Ancestor, rest assured! I will show mercy!” Diwu Xuanye spoke expressionlessly.

Upon seeing this person stand up, Zhao Qingfeng’s heart trembled, his eye corners twitching slightly, an inexplicable fear surging within him.

As the saying goes: a person’s reputation, like a tree’s shadow!

Who in the Ten Thousand Peak Spirit Domain doesn’t know the great name of diwu Xuanye.

Even a thousand years ago, his prestige had already spread far and wide, having experienced countless bloody battles throughout his life without a single defeat.

After breaking through to Divinity Transformation, he became unstoppable!

For nearly a thousand years, diwu Xuanye has been virtually invincible, defeating all opponents under Returning to Void, known as the “strongest under the Returning to Void.”

Now, diwu Xuanye has been at the Perfect God Transformation Realm for many years, with a cultivation and divine skills honed to perfection, lacking just a stroke of opportunity to attempt crossing the Returning to Void Thunder Tribulation, a path of nine deaths and one life.

Zhao Qingfeng’s thoughts raced, instantly connecting why diwu Xuanye was eager to step forward — it was nothing more than for that Kunyuan Immortal Fruit.
