“He…he ate it?”
Wu Guang stared blankly as Yang Zhen munched on the Heavenly Fragrance Fruit, swallowing hard, muttering to himself, “Three hours!”
Do you know what three hours meant? Even an ox would be exhausted to death. Moreover, it’s in a state of loss of sanity. One could say that any man Who ate this Heavenly Fragrance Fruit was basically no different from a wild beast, no, even wild beasts are not that insane.
The rest of the men were looking at Yang Zhen in astonishment, while the women in the team screamed in unison, their faces pale.
Young Master Yang!” Lu Xueqing called out in a panic, “You can’t eat it!”
“It tastes good, why can’t I eat it?” Yang Zhen mumbled as he looked at the people around him, offering one to Wu Guang who was closest to him, “Do you want to try it?”
With a rustle, Lu Xueqing and the other women in the team all backed away from Yang Zhen, vigilantly staring at his eyes, afraid that Yang Zhen would pounce on them in his deranged state.
The most terrifying thing was that it is said that the Blood Spirit race males who ate the Heavenly Fragrance Fruits emit a strange fragrance, which could make women lose their self-control…
Wu Guang was secretly relieved, fortunately, this strange fragrance didn’t have any effect on men.
Senior Brother, be careful. Under a loss of sanity, a man who has eaten the Heavenly Fragrance Fruit doesn’t distinguish between males and females.” Lu Xueqing reminded Wu Guang with a strange expression.
Wu Guang’s face paled instantly, and he leaped three feet high, jumping out from in front of Yang Zhen, “Brother Yang, why…why are you so reckless? The Heavenly Fragrance Fruit is not something you can eat casually. Do you feel anything now?”
Yang Zhen let out a satisfied belch, smiling, “Crisp and sweet!”
“Who asked you about that!” Lu Xueqing glared at Yang Zhen, and was just about to ask another question, when her face suddenly changed, “This fragrance, not good!”
A few whimpers could be heard, a few girls next to Lu Xueqing were all flushed, their eyes gradually lost focus. Lu Xueqing turned pale, grabbed them, turned around, and was about to leave.
If they stayed here, once the effects of the Heavenly Fragrance Fruit took place, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Wu Guang and the others were also frightened. They had originally thought that Yang Zhen, who had eaten the Heavenly Fragrance Fruit, would not pose any threat to them, but the effects of the Heavenly Fragrance Fruit were terrifyingly gender-blind. Just the thought of the terrifying consequences nipped at their spine.
Just as everyone was at a loss, Yang Zhen’s body suddenly exploded with a terrifying burst of primordial energy. The violent energy waves swept across the entire altar in the blink of an eye. The energy tidal wave even blew the bodies that were kneeling at the edge of the stone platform.
Wu Guang and the others were horrified, looking at Yang Zhen, too shocked to speak.
“It worked!”
Yang Zhen was overjoyed. The Heavenly Fragrance Fruit, as described in the Heavenly Book, was indeed a type of primordial guide.
While everyone was avoiding the Heavenly Fragrance Fruit, very few people knew that for a powerful formation master, it was an extremely rare and precious primordial guide.
For a formation Grandmaster, each Heavenly Fragrance Fruit held an enormous value, more precious than countless treasures they’d be unwilling to trade for.
However, not all formation grandmasters knew how to use the Heavenly Fragrance Fruit. If used improperly, as Lu Xueqing had mentioned, the consumption of the fruit could lead to a worldly catastrophe.
After Yang Zhen ate the Heavenly Fragrance Fruit, he used his own meridians as a formation base, allowing the terrifying energy contained within the fruit to circulate wildly within his body. After ninety-nine circulations, the fruit’s energy was purified into the purest form of primordial guide.
The violent energy burst forth, with Yang Zhen’s body as the formation base, a terrifying energy vortex formed above his head. The primordial energy in the altar suddenly boiled, wildly rushing towards Yang Zhen.
“Impossible!” Lu Xueqing exclaimed, incredibly looking at the scene before her, her eyes wide open, both hands holding her mouth.
Yang Zhen’s energy escalated rapidly, instantly jumping from the seventh realm of foundation establishment to the eighth, and continued ascending.
Wu Guang and the others were also staring blankly at Yang Zhen, who was at this moment like a pond, crazily absorbing the primordial energy flows around him.
“Could that not be the Heavenly Fragrance Fruit?” Wu Guang’s eyes lit up, about to walk over, but was held back by Lu Xueqing pulling on his clothes.
“Don’t go, that is indeed the Heavenly Fragrance Fruit.”
Lu Xueqing’s face was pale, beads of sweat trickling down her forehead. It was clear she wasn’t in very good shape.
Wu Guang wanted to say something but hesitated when suddenly, with a rip, a female disciple next to him was inexplicably tearing at her clothes.
“Not good, let’s get out of here!”
Lu Xueqing gave Yang Zhen a strange look, and hurriedly pulled the female disciple to leave the altar.
Although Wu Guang was reluctant, seeing the female disciple in such a state, they couldn’t stay there. Yang Zhen’s aura had already risen to the eighth level of Foundation Establishment. If he lost his senses, wouldn’t they be left without any chance of resistance?
Thinking about this, Wu Guang shivered and gritted his teeth, “Quickly, let’s
go, we have to get out of here.”
Rumble!
A muffled sound was heard, followed by an earth-shaking tremor. The entire altar seemed to be on the verge of collapsing under Yang Zhen’s terrifying energy wave.
“Yang Zhen, you have to leave now!” Lu Xueqing turned her head and called out anxiously, but there was no response.
Giant stones began to rain down from the sky, nearly burying everyone underneath.
Having barely made it out of the altar and before they could turn around, a world-turning sensation came over them. With a loud rumble, the huge altar had completely collapsed and sunk into the ground.
“Yang Zhen!” Lu Xueqing gave a startled cry and was about to rush over, but Wu Guang held her back.
“Let’s face it, Junior Sister, no one could have survived that collapse. Yang Zhen… he might have… died.”
Lu Xueqing shuddered, her face slightly dim, “I wonder if he thought of his cousin before he died.”
“Are you really not Yang Zhen’s cousin?”
Lu Xueqing laughed but did not answer the question, “We should report back to the sect. We have to head to Flame City soon.”
With that said, Lu Xueqing took one last look at the collapsed altar, sighed, and turned to leave.???????????????????????? °
A long while after Wu Guang and the others had left, the collapsed earth of the altar suddenly burst apart, and Yang Zhen emerged, his face dirty, holding a pile of Heavenly Fragrance Fruits.
“This broken altar is so fragile. It’s a good thing I accidentally advanced to the ninth level of Foundation Establishment, otherwise, it would have been tough to get out.”
With Wu Guang and the others gone, Yang Zhen was spared a lot of trouble. After wrapping and packing the Heavenly Fragrance Fruits, Yang Zhen took out an odd-looking seed-like thing from his pocket with a strange expression.
The seed was about the size of a thumbnail, jade-like, and seemed to have a trace of blue glow flowing within. It was shot out from the ground by the fire element when the altar collapsed, and Yang Zhen had grabbed it in his hand.
Yang Zhen had never seen such a seed before, so he just took it with him.
After cleaning off the dirt, Yang Zhen looked even more bemused. He smelled faintly of orchid, a scent that lingered even a day and night after eating the Heavenly Fragrance Fruit and struggling to crawl out from the collapsed altar. The scent had not entirely dissipated.
Although it was only detectable up close, it left Yang Zhen somewhat perplexed. Would women fall in love with him uncontrollably after smelling this scent?
Thinking about the possible consequences, Yang Zhen’s face turned green.
It took him another two full days to reach Flame City, and he almost got hit by a carriage as soon as he entered the city, hurriedly dodging out of the way.
The carriage sped past, causing chaos along the way, and the many practitioners dared not voice their anger.
Yang Zhen pulled a young man aside and asked, “Who was that, fellow Daoist? So arrogant, does his family own a mine?”
The young practitioner’s face changed, and he quickly said, “Don’t talk nonsense, or you might court disaster..”
