Watching the towering vines sent by Liu Mufeng to attack, the male cultivator flipped his palm and flames turned into fiery snakes, burning towards the incoming vines.
Upon discovering that the opponent was a fire type cultivator, Liu Mufeng decisively changed his moves. With a wave of his sleeve, a hundred darts flew towards the opponent.
The male cultivator threw out a golden cauldron which swiftly blocked Liu Mufeng’s attack.
With a flip of his wrist, a person-tall stick appeared in Liu Mufeng’s palm, swinging it towards the opponent. This stick was refined by Xiaoyuan with the help of Liu Mufeng. They used a type of emerald green bamboo, with a beautiful pattern on the entire length of the stick, which looked very beautiful. The core of the stick had been hollowed out, and it was filled with a green poisonous powder. When in use, the toxic powder would escape from the small holes above and below during the attack.
When the male cultivator saw Liu Mufeng displaying his immortal weapon, he also brought out his own weapon, which was a pair of copper hammers. The two fought back and forth for dozens of rounds without a clear winner.
Just as the male cultivator was thinking about how to confront the enemy, suddenly, the screams of his companions came to his ears. “Ahh, Senior Brother, help me, help me!”
“Senior Brother!”
The male cultivator turned around and saw that one of the two female cultivators who came with him had died tragically, while the other had fallen on the ground and had been severely injured by Shi Lian.
Feinting a move, the male cultivator quickly ran over and used the pair of hammers in his hand to block Shi Lian’s Stone Seal, saving his fellow disciple.
“Junior Sister, are you okay?” Seeing his Junior Sister with black blood still on her lips, the male cultivator asked in a worried voice.
“I’m poisoned, they, these despicable bastards, poisoned me!” She leaned in the arms of the male cultivator and spoke between gasping breaths.
“Poisoned?” Upon hearing this, the man’s face changed greatly. “Do you know that my Junior Sister is…” Before he could finish speaking, the male cultivator spewed out a big mouthful of black blood. “You, you!”
“Hmph!” With a cold snort, Bai Yu raised his hand and threw his long sword, directly killing the two poisoned people,
Seeing the two of them fall, Liu Mufeng felt a blood mark floating out of the female cultivator’s body and directly landing on himself.
“Blood mark!” Shi Lian frowned deeply.
“It seems that this woman has some background.” Liu Mufeng replied with narrowed eyes.

After solving the last two of the stone figures, everyone cleaned up the battlefield and left the battlefield.
The Immortal Milk Stones were collected by Shi Lian, and the remaining brownish red stones were also collected by Liu Mufeng. These stones could not be even burned by the flames of Tiantian. These must be good materials for refining weapons, but he was unsure if Xiaoyuan could find any way to refine them into magic tools.
Continuing their journey, Liu Mufeng and his group walked for another month and finally walked out of this stone forest. During this period, they met three more brownish red stone people and collected fifteen Immortal Milk Stones, which made everyone very happy.
After walking out of the stone forest, Liu Mufeng found that they could already fly on the grassland outside, and his soul power could also be released for a long distance. This discovery made Liu Mufeng very relieved and happy.
Everyone found a lot of immortal herbs here, and even successfully found Xiaoyuan. With the help of the Wood Spirit Insects in picking the immortal herbs, Liu Mufeng saved a lot of effort.
“Master, are we going out to find Boss Jiang? I feel like Xiaoxiao and Jin Xiao are also rushing towards this direction. Should we wait for them?” Xiaoyuan asked as she looked at Liu Mufeng.
“En, I also feel them. We’ll wait for them here for three days. After they arrive, let’s go findXiaoXu together. It’s a good time to use this time to pick more immortal herbs.” After thinking for a moment, Liu Mufeng made a decision.
“Okay.” Nodding, Xiaoyuan agreed.
**********
One month later,
Walking through a lush forest, Jiang Xu finally met his two pet beasts, Pangpang and Bai Hu.
“Boss, what’s this place? I feel like these trees are growing strangely.” Pangpang lay on Jiang Xu’s shoulder, feeling that the trees in the forest were all growing strangely.
“Yeah, they all look strange, from the treetops to the trunks, it’s all emerald green, I don’t know what kind of trees they are.” Jiang Xu also felt that the trees looked strange.
“This is the Purple Spirit Tree. Although the tree is green, the fruit is purple. This fruit is very beneficial for wood cultivators like Mufeng. It can help improve their strength, but it takes 100,000 years for Purple Spirit Fruit to grow, and is very difficult to find.” Bai Hu sighed lightly.
“Uncle Bai, how do you know?” Jiang Xu smiled as he looked at Bai Hu.
“En, there is this in my inheritance.” Bai Hu replied, indicating that it was in his memory of inheritance.
“Oh, since it’s what Mufeng needs, let’s search carefully and see if there’s a tree that bears fruits.” This was the fruit that his man needed, and Jiang Xu naturally could not let it go. Mufeng was now a Void Immortal and a half-step away from being an Immortal King, and as long as there was enough opportunity, advancing to the level of Immortal King was within reach. He must find the Purple Spirit Fruit to help Mufeng advance to the Immortal King.
With a reminder from Bai Hu, Jiang Xu was particularly careful when searching for the Purple Spirit Fruit.
After searching in the forest for more than ten days, Jiang Xu finally found a Purple Spirit Tree that was bearing fruit. When he saw five sparkling purple fruits on the tree, Jiang Xu was extremely happy. “Bring the fruit back to Mufeng, Mufeng will love it.”
“XiaoXu, don’t rush to pick the fruit and see if there are any other immortal demon beasts guarding around.” Bai Hu immediately spoke out as a reminder.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xu took out five darts and shot them towards the fruit tree. Sure enough, a group of palm sized green butterflies spread their wings and attacked Jiang Xu.
Seeing the butterfly swarm pounce, Bai Hu and Pangpang immediately jumped off Jiang Xu’s shoulders, and the Master and beast pets worked together to fight against these butterflies.
Watching Jiang Xu and the demon beasts entangled with the butterfly swarm, five cultivators from Yutian Sect hiding in the dark immediately flew out, snatching the Purple Spirit Fruit from the tree and flying away.
Seeing that the fruits had been snatched away by someone else, Jiang Xu stopped fighting. Stars bloomed on his immortal sword, killing several butterflies that were rushing towards him. He immediately flew towards the five people and blocked their path. “Leave the fruits, it’s mine.”
Looking at Jiang Xu blocking the way, the male cultivator led by him sneered. “Immortal Friend, the things in the secret realm are originally unclaimed items, so whoever gets them first, naturally it belongs to them.”
“Fuck it, I discovered the fruit first. If it weren’t for us blocking those butterflies, could you even get those fruits? If you wanted to take advantage of someone’s situation and pick peaches for free, how could it be so easy?” Jiang Xu said coldly as he looked at the other person.
“Immortal Friend, you can see clearly, we are cultivators of the Yutian Sect.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xu looked contemptuous. “Pei, what I hate the most is the Yutian Sect.”
“You…” The male cultivator was furious as he looked at Jiang Xu who didn’t give him any face. He slapped Jiang Xu with one palm.
Jiang Xu countered with a sword, and the two attacks collided in the void, turning into nothingness.
“Stinky kid, you’re looking for death!” The male cultivator, who couldn’t scare Jiang Xu, let out a low growl and rushed over with the other four male cultivators.
Jiang Xu swung his sword and slashed towards the five people without any fear due to their large number. The long sword was effortlessly wielded in Jiang Xu’s hand, occasionally shooting out brilliant starlight, piercing and blinding people’s eyes.
However, even if Jiang Xu’s strength was high and his swordsmanship was excellent, he would still suffer some losses against five opponents. But Jiang Xu suddenly felt dizzy and slightly weightless while fighting and thought to himself:It’s bad, those butterflies are poisonous.
Looking at Jiang Xu, who was on the verge of collapse, the leader directly swung a blade at him. Jiang Xu dodged a bit slower, and his left shoulder was firmly stabbed by the opponent. Subsequently, the attacks of the other four also landed on Jiang Xu’s chest and back.
The quality of the immortal clothes on Jiang Xu’s body was very high, blocking the attacks of the other four people, but he couldn’t resist and block the attack of the Leader who had pierced his shoulder, causing it to bleed profusely.
The pain helped Jiang Xu regain a trace of rationality, and the sword in his hand swept towards the male cultivator in charge.
The male cultivator quickly dodged and pulled out his own sword.
“Ahhh…” Jiang Xu pressed on his wound that gushed out with blood and retreated repeatedly.
Suddenly, a pair of warm hands hugged his shaky body from behind. Smelling the familiar scent from the newcomer, Jiang Xu smiled, relieved. Turning his head, he met the handsome face of his lover. “Mufeng, the butterflies are poisonous. They stole my fruit!”
“Okay, leave them to me.” Liu Mufeng immediately took out the healing pill and fed it to Jiang Xu.
“You dare to harm Boss Jiang!” Seeing that Jiang Xu was injured, Xiaoyuan rushed forward first, followed closely by Jin Xiao, Xiaoxiao, Bai Yu, and Shi Lian and fought with those five people.
Raising his hand, Liu Mufeng grabbed a dead butterfly on the ground, carefully examined its body, and smelled the scent on its body. After quickly determining what toxic powder the butterfly carried, Liu Mufeng took out the antidote and fed his wife one and took one himself.
Holding Jiang Xu, Liu Mufeng placed him under a tree. “Sit down and rest for a while, I’ll go and bring those fruits back.”
“En, go ahead and make sure to bring back the fruit.” Jiang Xu said seriously with a pale face.
“En.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng flew over and first delivered the antidote to everyone. Then, he unleashed his firepower and engaged in a fight with the leading male cultivator.
