Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In the Blood Disc Immortal Vanquishing Array. Emperor Tianyun fell into a bitter struggle. He was forced back by the giant birds formed from the ancient tree’s golden leaves and the barrage of incoming vines.
The giant tree was more powerful than he had expected. Even the Blood Disc Immortal Vanquishing Array could not suppress it effectively.
He was completely unaware that his most valued descendant, Emperor Hengyun, had already been killed by his own men.
Even the expert who had killed Emperor Hengyun was oblivious, along with the rest of the Lu Family.
‘They were still in a difficult situation despite the reinforcements not long ago. More and more tree spirits were killed, including a few elite ones. They began to feel exhausted.
Suddenly, dozens of figures instantly arrived from afar. There were men and women, young and old, but all of them had fluttering clothes and immortal-like bearings.
‘The few elders in the lead had a pair of hale and hearty eyes. They had white hair and youthful faces, and they possessed the bearing of immortals.
They were members of the Grand Primordium Holy Land, judging from his attire and the totemic patterns on his Daoist robe.
They had sensed the unusual phenomenon and the battling sounds, so they rushed over to investigate.
They did not expect that someone had already arrived before them.
“It’s Tian Yunzi!” the Grand Elder of the Grand Primordium Holy Land, Perfected Wan Chu, remarked softly.
He naturally knew Emperor Tianyun, a top expert even stronger than him.
Perfected Wan Chu looked carefully at the spherical wooden cage woven from tree vines in the middle of the giant tree. He sensed that the extraordinary aura was coming from there.
Not only that, but the golden airflow formed by the power of heaven and earth was still gathering in the wooden cage.
It was clear that this giant tree had nurtured something extraordinary.
Meanwhile, above the forest at the top of the mountain in the distance, enormous figures surfaced in the clouds tens of thousands of kilometers above, secretly observing the towering ancient tree.
“Emperor Tianyun, do you require our assistance?” Elder Wan Chu could not help but ask when he realized that Emperor Tianyun and the others were in an uphill battle.
He was well aware that the priceless treasure nurtured by the giant tree was not something anyone could devour alone. Neither could the great Emperor Tianyun.
Therefore, if they cooperated, they might share the spoils.
Emperor Tianyun glanced at the people from the Grand Primordium Holy Land with mixed feelings.
On this hand, he did not wish to share the Heaven Earth Dao Fruit with them. However, he knew that it would not be easy to have it all for himself. After all, this giant tree was indeed troublesome. If this situation persisted, he would not be able to hold on much longer.
As he hesitated, the giant tree’s attacks suddenly halted. The sealed cage that enveloped the Heaven Earth Dao Fruit suddenly began shrinking.
Li Yu and the others were in the cage, looking at the miraculous fruit in surprise.
‘At the same time, roped-like vines instantly bound the group.
Acold glint flashed through Li Yu’s eyes as he struggled free from the vines and plucked the extraordinary fruit.
“Ding… successful collection of natural oddities: Heaven Earth Dao Fruit!” The system’s voice sounded.

In the meantime, the entire space shook violently. A muffled voice sounding like thunder or the roar of a beast rang.
The shrinking vine wooden cage stopped abruptly. While the vines emitting magic power fluctuations turned into deadwood instantly without any vitality.
Outside, the giant golden birds reverted into golden leaves that rapidly withered and fell powerlessly from the sky.
Those giant vines that were like flood dragons fell one after another. The ancient towering tree seemed to have its vitality sucked out as its powerful auras and pressure instantly weakened.
Under the suppression of the grand array formation, cracking sounds were heard as if it was about to break down.
“What’s going on?” Emperor Tianyun’s expression changed. He sensed something off.
Why did the aura emitted by the fruit disappear?
At that moment, the sealed vine cage that contained the Heaven Earth Dao Fruit exploded.
And ten figures flew out of it.
Emperor Tianyun, Elder Wan Chu, and everyone from the Grand Primordium Holy Land were shocked to see this.
“Humans?” Elder Wan Chu was a little stunned. He had clearly sensed some sort of extraordinary treasure in there. Why did ten youngsters come out in the end?
The other elders and disciples looked at each other with puzzled expressions.
Did this tree give birth to… ten kids?

This strange thought flashed through their minds, and they quickly thought of another possibility.
Creak.
Emperor Tianyun gnashed his teeth so hard that they creaked. His expression was so dark that he looked like he could eat someone.
He never imagined that Li Yu, Gu Yuqi, and the others would appear from the wooden cage.
Enemies were indeed bound to meet on a narrow road!
However, Emperor Tianyun could not understand how Li Yu and the others could appear in the vine cage.
One thing was certain, the Heaven Earth Dao Fruit had been seized by Li Yu’s company.
“Emperor Tianyun!” Gu Yuqi’s expression darkened since he was surprised as well.
Li Yu’s mouth curled up uncontrollably. Fate can be interesting.
He had met Emperor Tianyun again. Furthermore, judging from the surrounding situation and Emperor Tianyun’s expression, Li Yu knew he was definitely here for the Heaven Earth Dao Fruit.
It was a pity that Emperor Tianyun’s strength could not compare to his luck. His luck was tremendous, so he had been directly teleported to the Heaven Earth Dao Fruit’s side.
“Hand over that fruit!” Emperor Tianyun snapped coldly with killing intent in his eyes.
After that, he glanced at Gu Yuqi, who had an icy cold gaze as well, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile while the greed in his heart swelled up again.
Since the heavens had sent this piece of fat meat to his mouth, how could he not eat it?
He fancied both the Heaven Earth Dao Fruit and Gu Yugi today.
Now that they were in the Blood Disc Immortal Vanquishing Array, they were simply fish on his chopping board and turtles in his jar.
“Why should I? Did you plant this tree?” Li Yu sneered.
Emperor Tianyun’s expression blackened further, and the war god phantom around him became more corporeal. The terrifying killing aura caused the color of the space around to darken.
“Why is Gu Yugi here!” A Lu family member who flew up from below exclaimed in surprise when he saw Gu Yugi.
His remark attracted the attention of Elder Wan Chu and Grand Primordium Holy Son Chang Hexiang.
They naturally knew Gu Yugji’s name. It was that dazzling name on the Sons of Heavens Rankings.
He was the prodigy at the late stage of Soul Formation who had advanced from 19th place to 15th place in a few days, surpassing Chang Hexiang, who was in the Profound Void Martial Stage.
Moreover, he was also from the Qingyun Sect, the same one as Li Yu.
In that case, Li Yu must be here as well.
Elder Wan Chu, Chang Hexiang, and the others immediately focused their attention on the person who had spoken to Emperor Tianyun earlier. They immediately guessed that it was Li Yu.
His appearance and bearing were too eye-catching. Only he was worthy of being the number one prodigy of the human race.
“Young friend, are you Qingyun Sect’s Li Yu?” Elder Wan Chu asked with a smile.
