CHAPTER 1055: CHAPTER 1055: COLLECTING THE IMMORTAL TREE, CHARMING SHADOW APPEARS!

After collecting the rings from those two people, Zhu Fei still did not participate in the competition for other Daze Fruits.

This sight made the rest of the cultivators breathe a long sigh of relief.

However, as they sighed in relief, they couldn’t help but wonder why Zhu Fei had killed three cultivators who tried to deal with him and yet wasn’t fighting for the Daze Fruits. What was his true purpose?

But these thoughts only flickered briefly in their minds.

To them, a powerful figure like Zhu Fei—they really didn’t care what he intended to do here, as long as he didn’t compete with them for the Daze Fruits.

As for Zhu Fei himself, at this time, he was hastily trying to collect the Daze Fruit tree, let alone contending with them for the few Daze Fruits left.

With this Daze Fruit tree and the Spiritual Medicine resources in his Divine Tripod Space, obtaining Daze Fruits would be a rather manageable task.

Moreover, this was a long-term transaction, even if he wouldn’t need it in the future, it would still hold significant value for his woman and friends.

Finally, as time passed, the competition for those Daze Fruits among the cultivators present reached its final stage.

After some time passed, all those who managed to seize the Daze Fruits began to leave one after another.

And the cultivators who failed to secure any Daze Fruits merely glanced at Zhu Fei from a distance and didn’t linger, quickly vanishing from the scene.

Seeing everyone leave, Zhu Fei finally showed a joyful smile on the corner of his mouth.

No other reason, it was simply because Zhu Fei now had nearly full control over the Daze Fruit tree.

Next, he just needed to circulate his power to relocate the Daze Fruit tree directly into his Divine Tripod Space.

"Rumble!"

With a surge of force from Zhu Fei’s hands, his own formidable King-level power suddenly uprooted the entire Daze Fruit tree.

With a flash of divine skill laws, a shadowy image of the Divine Tripod appeared above Zhu Fei’s head.

It seemed as though a vortex suddenly materialized in the sky, an intangible yet substantial force whirlwind sweeping the Daze Fruit tree towards the vortex.

"Buzz! Boom!"

With a loud roar, the Spiritual Medicine area in Zhu Fei’s Divine Tripod Space suddenly trembled gently.

Through his Divine Thought, Zhu Fei clearly saw that the Daze Fruit tree rooted itself securely in his Divine Tripod Space!

Success!

Witnessing this scene, even with Zhu Fei’s composed mindset, he couldn’t help but feel a slight thrill.

It was the Daze Fruit tree, an immortal tree that could bear Daze Fruits.

Although it might not be extremely crucial for strong individuals above the Immortal Monarch level, it held strategic significance for a large faction.

Surely, even an Immortal King would find means to seize it.

Looking around, just as Zhu Fei was about to leave, a round of loud applause suddenly reached his ears.

This made Zhu Fei’s heart sink deeply; he never expected that in a place like this, someone could still hide without him noticing.

However, immediately, Zhu Fei saw a figure appear a short distance in front of him.

This person roughly appeared to be a man in his forties, but upon closer inspection, seemed only in his twenties, his entire being shrouded in a hazy shadow, mysterious and eerie.

"Truly unexpected that you managed to take away the Daze Fruit tree here. You know, so many Immortal Monarchs tried and failed to take this tree in the past.

But you, Ye Fei—oops, I should say, Zhu Fei—with your mere Golden Immortal Early Stage cultivation, have managed to take this tree. This makes me wonder if there’s something akin to the treasures of the Celestial Spirit World on you."

The statement instantly made Zhu Fei’s face look extremely grave.

Despite his meticulous caution and concealment earlier, he was still noticed by others.

"Who exactly are you?"

Taking a deep breath, Zhu Fei tried to calm himself and looked sharply at the figure cloaked in shadow.

Now he realized, the opponent’s cultivation was incredibly formidable, roughly no less than Late Stage Ancestor Immortal.

What weighed even more on him was the somewhat familiar aura he sensed from the figure, seemingly emanating from Bai Shan, whom he had killed before!

"Ha ha, let me introduce myself, I am Charming Shadow, a subordinate of Zhenwu Immortal Monarch Bai Potian. We came here precisely for the Dao Fruits of this place.

But I never expected to witness such a thrilling scene beforehand; indeed, this journey was not in vain."

From Charming Shadow’s words, Zhu Fei couldn’t miss the confidence in the tone as if Zhu Fei wasn’t even taken into account.

No wonder, there was a vast gap between Ancestor Immortal and Golden Immortal in the first place.

It was only a rare anomaly like Zhu Fei who had previously killed the Silver Moon Lone Wolf, who had Ancestor Immortal power, with his mere Golden Immortal level.

But Charming Shadow was different; not only is he the top aide of Bai Potian, but he also mastered various high-level cultivation techniques.

His current cultivation was not just entering the Ancestor Immortal realm but that of a veteran Late Stage Ancestor Immortal.

Zhu Fei could easily guess that given Charming Shadow’s present strength, his mastery over various laws was surely advanced.

If they clashed head-on, unless Zhu Fei recklessly used all his ace cards, this ordeal would be hard to survive.

Worse still, Zhu Fei had already exhausted most of his Immortal Essence to collect the Daze Fruit tree earlier.

His current strength was almost depleted.

Thinking of this, Zhu Fei’s heart, already heavy, sank even further.

Charming Shadow chuckled, "Why? Looking at your face, it seems your mood isn’t great. Although I can’t let you leave now, I can decide to give you a swift end if you voluntarily tell me all your secrets, what do you say?

Of course, I advise you not to harbor any idle ideas, since I am here, you have no chance whatsoever."
