On the hill, a nearly fifty-square-meter platform was constructed from white jade stones. In the middle of the platform was an ancient tree that was three to four meters tall. At a glance, the first impression was that the tree was already old. The bottom of the tree trunk had been eroded into a large arched hole. It was supported by three bowl-thick roots. The bark peeled off from the ground had a thick layer. Some of them had already rotted into powder, silently telling the vicissitudes of time.
This is the Profound Star Tree. It's probably over 30,000 years old, and no one knows the exact number. This was the only Profound Star Tree that gave the cultivators of the Ancient Plain Continent hope of reaching Foundation Establishment. Although it was old, it still tenaciously produced several Star Profound Fruits every ten years, providing the cultivators of the Ancient Plain Continent with materials to refine Foundation Establishment Pills. But how long could this only hope last, a decade? Two decades … Perhaps it will fall tomorrow, and the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Guyuan Continent will be extinct from then on.
Fortunately, there was a solid barrier left behind from ancient times around the Profound Star Tree. It was precisely this barrier that protected the Profound Star Tree well. Otherwise, this rare treasure would probably not have survived until now. The light of the barrier that had flashed for tens of thousands of years was still flickering firmly. The strength below the Golden Core Stage was simply unable to shake the barrier at all. Many cultivators who were interested in the Star Profound Fruit did not move and returned. The only way to pick up the Star Profound Fruit was every ten years. When the Star Profound Fruit matured, the barrier would become very weak for a period of time. Foundation Establishment cultivators could forcefully break through it and pick the Star Profound Fruit away. During this period of time, there was only a short amount of time to make a cup of tea, but it was clearly enough.
At this moment, there were nine golden fruits hanging on the Profound Star Tree within the barrier. Through the yellow barrier, one could vaguely see that the fruits were in the shape of five-pointed stars, exceptionally dazzling. This was the Star Profound Fruit that cultivators below Foundation Establishment dreamed of.
Chu Jun and his group stood at the east side of the platform. The Tenghuang Pavilion was on the north side, while the Liefa Sect was on the west side facing the Zhengtian Gate. The Liefa Sect actually had as many as twenty people participating in the Star Seizure this time, more than the total number of the other two sects. It could be seen that their strength was second to none, and they were definitely worthy of being the boss of the three sects. Seeing this, Shen Xiaobao, who was filled with killing intent and confidence, was also worried. Ning Yun's pretty face turned pale.
"Stay calm. Star Seizure isn't more than people. It's more than wisdom and courage. Remember, if you have confidence, you may not necessarily win, but if you don't have confidence, you will definitely lose!" Ling Zijian said coldly.
Everyone's spirits shook, and Shen Xiaobao straightened his waist!
The disciples of the Liefa Sect all looked at the seven people from the Zhengtian Sect with unfriendly expressions, not concealing the mockery and hostility on their faces. Coppage, who was at the front of the team, sneered and stared at Zhao Yu and Chu Jun with naked hatred. These two people were the targets he would definitely kill today. Chu Jun glanced at Du Huang with a calm expression, and the corners of his mouth revealed a trace of obvious mockery. Coppage's gaze instantly turned cold. He was extremely furious. Last time, Chu Jun had killed his subordinates in Burning Heaven City, and he had also ruthlessly slapped him in the face at the auction. Therefore, Coppage hated Chu Jun and even Zhao Yu.
"Chu Jun, I will shred your corpse into ten thousand pieces and crush your bones into ashes!" Coppage thought to himself, "It's best to capture that bitch Zhao Yu and force her to death in front of Chu Jun. Only then will it be satisfying!"
Seeing that Coppage's gaze had changed from malicious to obscene, Chu Jun's gaze couldn't help but turn cold. Two strands of killing intent burst out. Zhao Yu and Xiaoxiao were scales that no one in his heart could touch. Coppage was swept by Chu Jun's cold gaze, and his heart couldn't help but feel a chill. Damn it!
"At the early stage of Spirit Condensation, I can crush him to death with one hand!" Coppage touched the fiery red jade pendant on his waist.
Chu Jun noticed that all the Liefa Sect disciples wore this fiery red jade pendant on their waist. He thought to himself, "It seems that the information Li Xiangjun provided is correct!"
Zhao Yu noticed the exchange of fire between Coppage and Chu Jun's eyes and said warmly, "Chu Jun, be careful when the time comes. If you can't beat him, then run away. Don't be impulsive."
Chu Jun smiled confidently, "Don't worry, Yu'er. I'm still confident in dealing with that coppage. Remember the method I taught you!"
Zhao Yu nodded, a hesitant and complicated expression flashing through his eyes. Chu Jun knew that Zhao Yu's heart was too kind, and he said, "Yu'er, the other party has made up their minds to kill us. You must not be soft-hearted. Being kind to the enemy is the greatest cruelty to yourself!"
"Yes, I know!" Zhao Yu gently rolled her eyes at Chu Jun.
"Chu Jun, what are you guys whispering about?" Ning Yun's voice rang in his ears.
Chu Jun turned around and saw that Ning Yun was looking at him with his big eyes open. He whispered, "Be careful. At that time, no one will be able to help you. If you don't have confidence, then try your best to avoid it!"
Ning Yun's heart warmed slightly as he suddenly sent a voice transmission, "Chu Jun, I hope that what you said is not true!"
"I hope it's not true. It's better to be careful!" Chu Jun said softly.
Ning Yun snorted softly, "If I prove you wrong, I will not spare you!"
They were whispering to each other via voice transmission. The six Foundation Establishment leaders of the three sects had already gathered to discuss the drawing of lots.
One of the leaders of the Liefa Sect, Chu Jun, also recognized Fu Qiu, the "Red-browed Eagle King" he had met in Burning Heaven City that day, as well as Qiu Dan, one of the twelve elders of the Liefa Sect, who was at the mid Foundation Establishment stage. Apart from that noble father-in-law, the leader of the Tenghuang Pavilion also had a beautiful female cultivator. She wore a snow-white robe and her gaze was as cold as before. Her cheekbones were slightly high and her lips were very thin. She gave off a very harsh feeling that her cultivation was actually at the late Foundation Establishment stage.
"Your Liefa Sect has improved a lot, a few more than last year!" Fu Qiu glanced at Chu Jun and the others, but his expression carried a trace of mockery.
Fatty Qu smiled and said, "It's easy to say, but there are more people in your Liefa Sect than the two of us put together. Tsk tsk, I wonder if it will work!"
"Hehe, I'm afraid that your Zhengtian Sect will not be able to obtain a single Profound Star Fruit this time!" Qiu Dan sneered.
That noble father-in-law was ridiculed by Qu Zhengfeng just now, but now he seized the opportunity and said, "Fatty Qu, if this is really the case, I advise you to just run over and die!"
Qu Zhengfeng still smiled and said, "Your father-in-law is right, it's better to kill him by a head-on collision!" As he spoke, he intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Beitang Gui's crotch.
Beitang Gui's heart was furious. Just as he was about to explode, the female cultivator of the Tenghuang Pavilion with high cheekbones said coldly, "Cut the crap. Relying on your true abilities, we'll see what the result will be in ten days. Let's begin immediately!"
Ling Zijian nodded and said, "Not bad!"
Fu Qiu sneered in his heart, but he said, "Daoist Wenyue is right. Let's start drawing lots immediately!"
The drawing of lots was simple and fair. A pile of bamboo tokens with numbers written on them. All the disciples participating in the Star Seizure took out one at random and then sent it to the designated area of Giant Wind Plain according to the number on the bamboo token. Before this, all of the flying mounts and the Hundred Treasures Pouch would be put away. They could only bring their own weapons and magic treasures with them and give them to a single Hundred Treasures Pouch. There were five Spirit Beans, ten Hemostatic Pills, ten Spirit Return Pills, and one Signal Talisman inside. Participants relied on these items to spend ten days in the Giant Wind Plains, hunting spirit beasts. On the tenth day, they counted the total number of beast crystals hunted by the disciples of the various sects that returned to the platform, and then split the Star Profound Fruit proportionally.
The one Chu Jun drew was Number 12, and the one who sent him to Number 12 was none other than the noble father-in-law of the Tenghuang Pavilion.
"Brat, you must be that Chu Jun!" Beitang Gui stepped on the flying sword and flew forward with Chu Jun as he asked in a shrill voice.
"That's right, Senior knows me!" Chu Jun said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
Beitang Gui chuckled coldly, "I heard that girl Huang Bing say that it only took you a year to cultivate from spirit refinement to spirit condensation, isn't that so?"
Chu Jun was stunned for a moment before nodding, "It's just good luck!"
Beitang Gui's pupils narrowed slightly. It was simply shocking that he had gone from spirit refinement to spirit condensation in a year. Could it be that this Chu Jun was truly an extraordinary genius? The Heaven Sect had good luck. He had produced Shangguan Yu, and now there was another Chu Jun.
"Here we are, let's go down!" Beitang Guifei's flying sword sank down and pushed Chu Jun down several dozen meters away.
"Fuck you!" Chu Jun almost wanted to curse out loud. Beitang Gui's intentions were really sinister. If he fell down from this height, he wouldn't die, but he could still hurt himself.
Chu Jun took a deep breath. After several somersaults, he finally stabilized his body. The two corners of his cloak spread open and fell down like a big bird. The divine power of his feet activated, and the light under his feet lit up. The speed of his fall slowed down for a moment. At this moment, he had already reached the top of the tree. Chu Jun looked at a branch and stretched out his foot to step on it. He managed to withstand a portion of the impact force. Finally, he landed beautifully on the ground a few times like this.
Seeing Chu Jun's ability, Beitang Gui, who was flying far away with his sword, couldn't help but be speechless. If he had been pushed down from a distance of forty to fifty meters by someone at Chu Jun's strength stage, he would have fallen into a sorry state.
When Chu Jun landed on the ground, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He looked up and saw that your father-in-law had already disappeared. He couldn't help but curse, "Damn it! The eunuchs are indeed abnormal!"
Chu Jun looked at the surrounding terrain and chose an open place. He took out the Hundred Treasures Sack and sniffed it. He took out the contents and put them away. Then, he hung the empty sack on a short tree.
After finishing all of this, Chu Jun found a large tree, hid himself and gathered his strength. He waited for his prey to arrive at his door automatically.
Sure enough, not long after, the rustling sound came from the nearby bushes. It seemed that more than five spirit beasts had heard the wind.
"Roar!" With a loud roar, a lion-headed scorpion-tailed spirit beast walked out of the bush. Its eyes were scarlet red like blood, and its nose sucked in and out, as if it was sniffing something. Immediately after, the five wolf leopards turned around like ghosts behind the tree. When they saw the lion scorpion immediately stand still, the hairs on its back stood upright, and its green eyes revealed a look of fear. When the Lion Scorpion saw the Wolf Leopard, it immediately raised its tail, and the purple poisonous needle on it stretched uncontrollably.
At this moment, the Thorned Tree crowd fell one after another, and a forest python that was more than ten meters long swam over!
Chu Jun couldn't help but be secretly shocked. The Lie Fa Sect's poisonous scheme was indeed poisonous. If he hadn't received the news beforehand and carried this Hundred Treasures Sack that had been sprinkled with wood powder from the incense embryo, he would have been surrounded to death by spirit beasts.
