Immortal of the Nine Realms

Chapter 532: The True Use of the Vast Origin Fruit

Gai Yunuo walked over, staring coldly at Fang Chen, her eyes full of fury. "Big Brother, why be so polite to them? If they want to kill our third brother, let’s see if they have the means to do it. Do they think that the experts of Heavenly King Zhen's Manor are all dead?"

Glancing at Gai Hong and Gai Yunuo, Fairy Yu suddenly chuckled. She said to Fang Chen, "Young Master, look at these two. They are so pitiful. They haven't recovered from the beating you gave them earlier; their mouths are crooked, and their eyes are slanted."

Her words were like a sharp knife, stabbing deeply into Gai Yunuo's heart.

This is bad.... Gai Hong thought.

Sure enough, Gai Yunuo went through the roof, chest heaving.

Gai Hong quickly stepped forward and placed himself between the two sides. Looking at Gai Yunuo seriously, he said, "Second sister, the injuries on our faces will heal in time. There's no need to let such minor wounds cloud your judgment."

Gai Yunuo's eyes cleared as her reason returned. She took a deep breath and said to Fairy Yu and Fang Chen, "It originally had nothing to do with me or my brother whether Gai Wu lived or died. We dislike him just as much as you do.

"We never wanted to get dragged into his affairs. But now, I've changed my mind. You want to kill him to resolve your grievances? Go ahead and try. Let's see what you can do. I hope you're not just bragging and making empty threats."

With that, Gai Yunuo turned and walked away.

Gai Hong sighed inwardly and then looked at Fang Chen. "Fellow cultivator, I won't interfere with Gai Wu's affairs. If you want to kill him, go ahead. But as my father's third son, he naturally has many powerful protectors. Killing him won't be easy."

After saying that, Gai Hong turned around and hurried to catch up with Gai Yunuo, fearing she might do something irrational in her anger.

"It seems the three siblings of the Heavenly King Zhen Palace aren't that harmonious," Fang Chen remarked with a faint smile in his eyes.

"Young Master, do you really want to find an opportunity to kill Gai Wu? Why not let this matter rest? We can avoid going to the Greenwood Sect and find a secluded place to live for a while. Heavenly King Zhen Palace has already said they won't pursue us anymore, so we might have some peace for a while," Fairy Yu said with a hopeful look at Fang Chen.

Fang Chen replied calmly, "They can say whatever they want. But as long as they can easily track you, you'll always be in danger. Besides, we need to guard against the Great Expansion Dao Gate, the Immortal Giant Sect, and the Innate Dao Sect. Not to mention, I've offended quite a few people today, so we need to be wary of them too. We must go to the Greenwood Sect."

After saying that, he and Fairy Yu transformed into sword lights and sped toward the Greenwood Sect.

"The sword in his hand is the vessel of an evil object. The mottled bloodstains on it are the source of the evil. This evil object allowed a mere Foundation Building Realm cultivator to strike fear into two Dao Union Realm cultivators, indicating its formidable origin."

"If we can capture and successfully refine it, combined with our Innate Dao Sect's 'Spirit Attachment Technique,' the power would be unimaginable."

After Fang Chen and Fairy Yu left, several figures suddenly appeared not far from the Immortal Dynasty Manor. Those individuals had been hiding under a concealing formation all along, never revealing themselves.

"That's true, but he may have a powerful backer... An Incense Sect Profound Immortal, an Immortal King, or even a First-Rate Sect Leader...."

"If we act rashly, we might bring disaster upon our sect. We are not like the Great Expansion Dao Gate; they have an Immortal King. With an Immortal King's protection, even ordinary First-Rate Sect Leaders would show him a bit of face."

"Let's try. If it doesn't work out, we'll stop. Now that the agreement between the Heavenly King Zhen Palace and the Void Immortal Sword Sect is void, we won't be breaking any rules by taking action."

After some discussion, they decided to follow Fang Chen and Fairy Yu and wait for the right moment to strike.

A few days later, Fang Chen and Fairy Yu arrived at the foot of an immortal mountain. As soon as they reached the base, someone came forward to guide them.

"Please, follow me."

"Did this senior brother know we were coming?" Fairy Yu asked curiously, noticing that their guide's aura was around the Golden Core Realm.

The guide glanced at Fairy Yu and Fang Chen and showed a wry smile. "With the commotion you two have caused, how could the Greenwood Sect not be aware? However, it's not just the Greenwood Sect, this matter will have significant repercussions across the Central Continent Empire."

He gestured for them to follow him up the mountain, leading the way with a composed demeanor despite the underlying tension caused by recent events.

"Countless people are now speculating about your background, Fellow Cultivator," the Golden Core Realm cultivator said, glancing at Fang Chen curiously. "Are you really from the Incense Sect?"

Fang Chen pondered for a moment before responding, "Let's just say I have some connections with the Incense Sect."

His answer was ambiguous but not entirely untrue, as he did have some ties with Supreme Immortal Pudu. To the Golden Core Realm cultivator from Greenwood Sect, it sounded like an admission.

A look of excitement appeared on his face. "It seems the rumors are true. You really do have ties with the Incense Sect."

They casually chatted as they scaled the mountain

Fang Chen and Fairy Yu learned from the Golden Core cultivator that his name was Shentu Chun. According to Shentu Chun, they discovered that the Qinghu Ruler and her entourage had already arrived at the Greenwood Sect. It was true that an ancestor of the Qinghu Clan was in secluded cultivation at the Greenwood Sect.

Recently, the sect had acquired an ancient immortal tree from the Ancient Immortal Road, attracting cultivators from everywhere.

"You two... if I may ask, are you here for the Vast Origin Fruit?" Shentu Chun asked. "The fruit only ripens once every three hundred years, and each time, only one fruit is produced. The elders of the sect likely won't part with it easily. Its value can't be measured by ordinary spirit stones."

Shentu Chun sighed lightly. "You two should be prepared for this."

Fang Chen's eyes flickered with interest. "Does the Vast Origin Fruit have another use?"

Shentu Chun nodded lightly. "Don't underestimate its ability to eliminate karma; this alone gives it tremendous value. The Three Calamities are a part of karma, and the Nine Tribulations also contain the thread of karma. You should now understand the true purpose of the Vast Origin Fruit, right?"

Fang Chen understood what he was implying. "Indeed."

The true function of the Vast Origin Fruit was to delay the arrival of the Three Calamities and the Nine Tribulations. If it could truly eliminate a hundred years of karma, it effectively buys a hundred years of preparation before the Heavenly Tribulation, potentially altering its outcome.

Before long, Shentu Chun led the two to a small teleportation array. After stepping into the array, they were transported to a lofty platform. The area was shrouded in mist, with occasional flocks of celestial cranes flying by. In the distance, they could see extensive herb gardens and orchards. Even a shallow breath brought rich spiritual energy into their bodies along with the air.

Shentu Chun, accustomed to this scene, showed them the way along a stone path on the cloud platform to a grand hall.

"Elder You, I've brought the guests," Shentu Chun announced.

"Come in," Elder Yu responded.

"Elder You is one of the nine stewards of our sect, and the Vast Origin Fruit you seek falls under his jurisdiction," Shentu Chun reminded them through voice transmission.

Fang Chen nodded slightly. One of the nine stewards?

Cupping his fist in thanks to Shentu Chun, Fang Chen led Fairy Yu into the hall.
