Chapter 1378 Godʼs Fruit

1378 Godʼs Fruit

”Haaaa… haaaa…”

Tian Yang gasped for air as he fell to his knee after his 99th bandit, his body soaked in blood. There were three daggers stabbed into his back and a sword skewering his right leg. Moreover, his entire left arm has been missing since it was severed half an hour ago.

Of the countless life-or-death situations he had faced, this trial marked his closest brush with death yet, and he still had one opponent left to fight.

Tian Yang stared at his final opponent with one eye closed, his gaze filled with anger and hatred.

The last bandit that stood between him and victory was the leader of the Gold and Money Bandits.

”You…” Tian Yang gritted his teeth and pulled out the sword stuck in his leg, enduring the pain.

”I will kill you!”

Even though his opponent was only a peak Spirit King, Tian Yang was already on the verge of exhausting what little spiritual energy he had left.

However, almost as though the heavens finally acknowledged Tian Yangʼs struggles and decided to bless him for the first time in his lifetime, his eighth-level Spirit King cultivation that was already a hairʼs width away from breakthrough suddenly entered the ninth-level Spirit King.

His exhausted spiritual energy replenished a decent amount, allowing him to recover some of his injuries with enough to spare for the fight.

”Haaaaaaa!” Tian Yang released a war cry before charging at the bandit leader.

Immense killing intent spewed out of Tian Yangʼs eyes as he swung at his opponent relentlessly.

After spending several hours physically fighting his heart demon, he arrived at the point where it hardly affected him any longer.

The bandit leader was only a little stronger than the other bandits, but it was more than doable for Tian Yang, who had a slight upgrade.

Tian Yang did not immediately kill the bandit leader and decided to slowly kill him instead.

He knew that the bandit leader wasnʼt real, so it was purely to release built-up stress.

He severed the bandit leaderʼs limbs one by one starting with the arms before moving to the legs. When the bandit leader could no longer move, let alone stand, Tian Yang covered his body with superficial cuts, almost as though he was trying to bleed the bandit leader to death.

By the time Tian Yang was done, there was not an area on the bandit leaderʼs body and face where it did not have a sword cut.

The voice returned when the bandit leader finally perished.

”Ah… I really did it…” Tian Yang rested his eyes.

When he opened them again, the view of shocked spectators appeared before his eyes. All of them had either wide eyes or wide mouths—or both.

”You have acquired the qualifications to seek my legacy.” A familiar voice that only Tian Yang could hear entered his head, followed by information about the legacyʼs location.

However, Tian Yang couldnʼt care less about the legacy, as he was focused on the treasure that appeared before him for clearing the jade altarʼs trial.

Unbelievably, it was Godʼs Fruit, also known as the god of all cultivation medicine. It was an exceedingly rare and valuable treasure that could completely reconstruct a personʼs innate talent to make it as high as possible. It was a heaven-defying and godlike medicine that had only appeared in the world once before since the beginning of time.

However, even though Godʼs Fruit could boost oneʼs talent to its maximum potential, everyone has a different limit. For example, Tian Yang was born with no talents and could only reach the peak of Spirit Lord. However, after consuming Godʼs Fruit and unlocking his maximum innate talent, it allowed him to reach the ninth level of Spirit King.

Meanwhile, Kulas was born with enough talents to reach the peak of Spirit Lord, but after consuming Godʼs Fruit, he would be able to reach the peak of Spirit Sovereign, thus having a higher limit than Tian Yang.

”G-Godʼs Fruit! Heʼs acquired a Godʼs Fruit!” The spectators snapped out of their daze when they saw the treasure in Tian Yangʼs hands, their eyes shining with greed.

Forget about these ordinary cultivators, even the Immortal Clans would start a war to acquire Godʼs Fruit.

Suddenly, someone jumped out of the crowd and charged at Tian Yang with clear killing intent.

However, before he could even reach Tian Yang, an invisible force with unfathomable prowess appeared out of thin air to neutralize the threat, instantly turning the person who charged at Tian Yang into a cloud of blood mist.

”Anyone who dares to steal anotherʼs treasure will be removed from existence.” The trialʼs voice resounded loud enough for everyone to hear.

”Tian Yang! Hurry up and consume it!” Kulas suddenly shouted at him.

”W-Wait! Donʼt eat it! I will buy the Godʼs Fruit from you!” Gu Lim immediately said.

He continued, ”That Godʼs Fruit will only be wasted on someone like you! If you know whatʼs for you, sell it to me!”

Tian Yang turned to look at Gu Lim and sneered, ”Before that, there is something else that you must do.”

”W-What is it?”

”If I recall correctly, you made a bet with Kulas on whether Iʼll survive this trial or not.” Tian Yang narrowed his eyes and continued, ”We can talk about the Godʼs Fruit after you honor your bet.”

Hearing this, Gu Lim gritted his teeth and handed all of the treasures he and his group bet on to Kulas.

”There. Now sell me the Godʼs Fruit.” Gu Lim said afterward.

”How much are you willing to buy it for?” Tian Yang asked.

”A hundred million spirit stones!” Gu Lim shouted.

Tian Yang sneered in disdain after hearing the offer, and he said, ”The last Godʼs Fruit was sold for a billion spirit stones. Why would I sell mine for any less?”

Gu Lim clenched his fists and roared, ”You canʼt even bring that Godʼs Fruit out of this place!”

”So what? That doesnʼt affect the Godʼs Fruitʼs effects, which means it wonʼt be any less valuable—whether I can take it out of here or not.” Tian Yang shrugged.

”If you wonʼt buy it at an appropriate price, Iʼd rather use it for myself.”

Naturally, he had no intentions of selling the Godʼs Fruit even if it killed him, so he was only messing with Gu Lim as a way of taking revenge for treating him like trash.

However, Gu Lim didnʼt know this and thought he actually had a chance to acquire the Godʼs Fruit.
