(Ten days have passed since then. Ye Feng's inner world has gathered a large amount of Violent Bear Inner Dan, and the cultivators in this region have also increased in number. Ye Feng tried to avoid these cultivators, not because he was afraid of them, but because he didn't want to make his move against them yet.)
Ye Feng thought that they should be kept now, and when the trial was about to end, these cultivators would have obtained many items. At that time, it would still be possible to make a move, so for now, just keep them as laborers for themselves.
Several women rushed over from a distance, and Ye Feng saw that they were all disciples of the Mirage Valley.
The disciples of the Mystic Valley are easily recognizable. Among the fifteen disciples who came to participate in the trial, ten were women and only five were male disciples, while other sects sent at most one or two female disciples.
"Hello beauties." A group of monks appeared before the female disciples of the Mystic Valley.
Several disciples of Bagua Gate were so bold and daring that they walked towards the female disciple of Mili Valley with a smile.
Several female disciples were dressed up in a showy manner, which was quite eye-catching. No wonder those guys came forward to chat them up.
Ye Feng shook his head, these guys are going to be unlucky, they're asking for trouble by provoking these few mother tigers, they're tired of living.
What kind of sect is Mirage Valley, but it's a sect that has the power to compete for first place. The Bagua Sect is far inferior compared to Mirage Valley.
"Scram, don't get in the way, I have no time to bother with you." The leader of the Misty Valley disciples, Lai Ya Jiao, was at the peak of the foundation stage and didn't put these few Bagua Sect disciples in her eyes at all, speaking without any courtesy.
"This sister's temper is not small, be careful getting angry will grow wrinkles, that would not be beautiful." The Eight Trigrams Sect's leader, Han Yun, was also in the foundation-building period, and his cultivation was about to reach its peak. In comparison, he wasn't much worse than Lai Ya Jiao.
Lai Ya Jiao glanced over at the Bagua Gate side, five people, two of whom were in the Foundation Building stage and three in the Qi Refining stage.
"Be careful what you say, do what you need to do. If you want to fight, we'll accompany you anytime." A person stood out behind Lai Yaqiao and glanced at Han Yun, saying.
Fu Yanjing was also in the foundation period and would naturally not be afraid of Han Yun.
"A few of you, don't get angry, we didn't have any malicious intentions. This illusory realm is full of crises everywhere, why not let's advance together and take care of each other?" The high-level cultivators behind Han Yun also stood out to help him speak.
"Well, if that's how it is, then fine." Lai Yaqiao said after a moment of thought.
The Eight Trigrams Gate this side a piece of magpie soaring, with beauty together advance, even if difficulties are heavy, won't feel too bitter.
Ye Feng shook his head secretly, these guys who were infatuated with the girls would definitely be used as cannon fodder by the few girls in the Misty Valley when they encountered any danger, and when it was time to leave the Illusory Realm, they would definitely be kicked away, and it would not be bad if they were not all killed.
Underestimating these girls would be a fatal mistake, the strength required to compete for first place is no joke.
Regardless of these people, Ye Feng quietly left.
The sect mission has three items, and the Violent Bear Inner Elixir has already been obtained in large quantities. If you want to win first place on the Violent Bear Inner Elixir, it's clearly not easy. Ye Feng decided to try his luck again and start searching for the Heavenly Pearl Fruit.
The Tianzhu fruit grows on a plain within a valley. In the Illusory Realm, only that place produces Tianzhu fruits, so if you want to obtain them, you must go there.
It is said that the Tianzhu fruit ripens every five years, coinciding with the opening of the Illusory Realm.
But in the place where Tianzhu fruit grows, there are spiritual beasts guarding it at all times. When the Tianzhu fruit is ripe, they eat it as food. If you want to pick the Tianzhu fruit, it's like snatching food from the mouth of a spiritual beast, which is not easy to do without absolute certainty.
Ye Feng rushed to the valley where the Tianzhu fruit grew, and when he arrived, many cultivators had already gathered at the entrance of the valley. Cultivators from various sects were present, and after receiving this year's sect mission, each sect had assigned a special disciple to pluck the Tianzhu fruit.
But for a small school like Wang Hai Pai, it doesn't matter. Li Xinchen didn't assign specific tasks to each disciple, as long as they could complete their personal tasks, that was enough. Who would think about the school's task? That's something only schools capable of competing for the top five would do.
Looking at the emphasis of several major factions, Ye Feng thought he was born to be a laborer. The boastful words had already been spoken, and in order to win two first places, Ye Feng would have to fight for every item.
The crowd gathered at the entrance of the canyon and did not go deep, Ye Feng came to the front, looking towards the depths of the canyon. In the depths was a relatively flat piece of land, on which grew a cluster of shrub-like plants, and on the branches of the shrubs hung a small number of golden yellow fruit, that is Tianzhu fruit.
The purpose of Tianzhu fruit is only one, to refine a solid foundation and nourish the original pill. This solid foundation and nourishing original pill also has only one use, which is that after a cultivator's cultivation reaches the peak of building the foundation, taking the solid foundation and nourishing original pill can increase the chance of impacting the Golden Elixir. It is said that taking the solid foundation and nourishing original pill at the peak of building the foundation can at least double the probability of impacting the Golden Elixir.
Tianzhu fruit is a rare treasure from heaven and earth, and its market price has always been high.
On the edge of the Tianzhu fruit tree cluster, there was a simple hut. Inside the hut, a spiritual beast lay on its back with its limbs spread out. Judging from its body shape, it looked similar to a monkey, but more like an ape in Ye Feng's impression.
Next to the ape-man was placed a large iron club, rusty and stained with fresh blood.
Not far from the entrance of the canyon, a line was drawn on the ground. Several corpses of monks lay on one side of the line, while the crowd stood helplessly on the other side with their hands tied up.
Ye Feng furrowed his brow, this scene was clearly different from the map, which said that the spiritual beast occupying this place was a giant snake, with cultivation at most in the Golden Dan period.
But now there is indeed a monkey, and from the monkey's body, not a single bit of spiritual energy fluctuation can be seen, but for some reason, no one can approach.
Ye Feng stood behind the crowd, quietly listening to the monks' discussion. After a while, Ye Feng understood.
Originally, there was a big snake here, but it was killed by this monkey. From then on, this place became the monkey's territory, and the monkey's cultivation made everyone look at him with admiration.
The line on the ground was drawn by a monkey, and the first few monks who came here didn't pay attention to it, directly rushing towards the Tianzhu fruit. They were beaten to death by the monkey with one stick. Some people still refused to give up, wanting to cross over, but ended up dying miserably on that side of the line as well.
The monkeys are particular and as long as they don't cross this line, they won't take action, so the monks were trapped on this side of the line, watching helplessly as the heavenly pearl fruit couldn't be picked.
"Then ride the flying sword over and grab a few Tianzhu fruits before running away," one of the cultivators said.
Ye Feng looked at the monk with a silly expression, if this method could work, Tianzhu fruit would have been gone long ago.
"Little brother, take a look ahead, that guy is riding the flying sword over there. Who would have thought that monkey could also fly and at such an incredible speed? Nothing can be done about it."
"So many people haven't thought of uniting together to deal with that monkey?" The monk asked again.
"Everyone comes from different sects, and their hearts are not aligned. It's easy to defeat the monkeys, but I'm afraid it won't be easy to work together when harvesting the Tianzhu fruit." The first arriving cultivator said helplessly.
"Everyone be quiet and listen to me." A handsome young man stood up and gestured to the crowd.
"Why should we listen to you?" One of the monks was dissatisfied.
"Shut up, junior brother." The monk beside him hastily pulled him back. "This is the eldest son of the Zhong Lixi family, Zhong Liye."
This junior brother heard the four words "Zhong Li Ye Ge" and immediately closed his eyes, standing there obediently to listen to Zhong Li Ye Ge's speech.
Among the top ten sects, only the Zhong Lishijia exists in a family form, but the family form is more conducive to unity. Over the years, the Zhong Lishijia has stood upright in the Xiuzhen realm and never fallen. Every time they participate in the fantasy domain trial, they are competing with the Mili Valley for first place.
And Zhong Li Ye Ge is the one with the highest cultivation among the fifteen children who entered the Illusory Realm this time. If it weren't for participating in the Illusory Realm trial, Zhong Li Ye Ge would have already broken through to the Golden Dan period. In order to be able to enter the Illusory Realm and compete with the Mysterious Valley for the top spot, Zhong Li Ye Ge has been suppressing his cultivation all along.
These great sects are indeed different from ordinary people. For example, the Wanghai Sect has already dispatched its strongest lineup, but it's only Su Mubai in the middle of the foundation-building stage.
Zhong Li looked at the crowd of cultivators in front of him. Everyone was silent, waiting for him to speak.
"This monkey's cultivation is something we've all seen, and none of us can be its match. If we want to pick the Tianzhu fruit, there's only one way: gather everyone's strength and work together to deal with it."
Everyone understands what Zhong Li Ye Ge said, the problem is how to divide the spoils in the end.
"After defeating the monkey, no one is allowed to pick the Tianzhu fruit at will. All the Tianzhu fruits are put together and then rewarded according to merit." Zhong Lixia continued.
"How can we determine the size of each person's contribution?" A monk asked, hitting the nail on the head. From which point of view can we see the size of the contribution? It's not that a certain sect has more dead disciples and their contribution is bigger.
"This is easy, let's first determine the strength of each sect. Everyone must go all out in the attack, and the distribution of the Tianzhu fruit afterwards will be determined by their current strength." Zhong Lixia seemed to have a plan in mind.
"It's hard to guarantee that everyone will work diligently and not just go through the motions." A monk said loudly, which is also a difficult problem.
"No big deal, when attacking, everyone is staring at the person next to them. If someone doesn't put in effort, kill them on the spot!" Zhong Lí Yè Gē's killing intent burst out, his aura was overwhelming, causing everyone to involuntarily shiver with fear, not daring to make eye contact with Zhong Lí Yè Gē.
"Alright, now everyone gather at their respective sects and let's see each other's strength." With one sentence from Zhong Lidi Ye Ge, everyone rushed to gather with their own people.
There were seven sects in total who came here, and none of them were loose cultivators.
Ye Feng looked around and saw that each sect had at least five people or more, while the Wang Hai Sect only had himself. It was clear that the others from the Wang Hai Sect were busy doing other things, and only he was still concerned about the sect's task.
In terms of strength, Zhongli's household is ranked first. Apart from Zhongli and Xingqiu, there are two more who have reached the peak of foundation building.
All other sects have at least three or two Building Foundation experts, and even the worst Bagua Sect has two.
"Well, then let's discuss the distribution of the Tianzhu fruit among our six sects." Zhong Lixiaoye had become the de facto leader of these cultivators, and began to issue orders.
"Wait!" Ye Feng thought it was unfair. Six sects, couldn't he represent the Wang Hai Sect? This was excluding himself! If he couldn't get the Tian Zhuo fruit, even if he got a lot in the other two items, the Wang Hai Sect wouldn't have a chance to compete for first place anymore. How could Ye Feng do that?
"Shut up, kid. This is a discussion among the major sects on important matters, hurry up and leave." A Jiguanmen cultivator who had reached the Foundation Establishment stage glared at Ye Feng, if it weren't for the urgency of the situation, he would have attacked him.
"What? Can't I, a member of the Sea Watching Sect, participate?" Ye Feng asked without hesitation.
"Muddying the waters and fishing for compliments is not possible in our line of work, giving you a Tianzhu fruit after the fact would be a waste." The other sect's cultivators also looked down on Ye Feng, there wasn't even a single Qi Refining Middle Stage cultivator here, let alone the entire Wanghai Sect which only had Ye Feng.
