The sect asked me to marry, and I cultivated to the pinnacle of martial arts!

Chapter 421 Zhou Qing didn't believe that Lu Ye could be the most outstanding Grandmaster in the Mortal Realm and invincible below the Earth Realm!

However, judging from the state of that Thunder Tiger, Zhou Qing estimated that Lu Ye's strength must also be considerable.

Perhaps he has already reached the seventh level of the mortal realm Grandmaster, or above.

It was only slightly weaker than that Mad Spirit Thunder Tiger.

The fact that three of us, all Grandmasters, had arrived together was what caused the Thunder Tiger to be intimidated by the four of us and dare not come closer.

Frowning slightly, Lu Ye collected the remaining unburnt firewood on the ground into his storage ring, stood up and said, "Then this place is yours, let's go."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Qingyin and Wu Jing immediately followed Lu Ye, intending to leave.

Seeing this, Zhou Qing frowned slightly, but he dared not say anything harsh in front of Lu Ye.

After all, the difference in strength is too great, especially now that he is injured, he probably can't withstand more than a few moves from his opponent.

Just as Lu Ye turned to leave, the eyes of the Mad Spirit Thunder Tiger suddenly lit up.

Instantly, Lei Hu roared and prepared to charge forward, tearing the two Western Realm cultivators to shreds.

"Fellow Daoist, I'll give it to you!"

His face suddenly changed color, and Zhou Qing immediately shouted, "I'm also willing to offer two Thunder Profound Fruits!"

Liu Zheng echoed, "Senior...I'm also willing to offer two."

As Lei Hu acted again, the oppressive aura of the ferocious beast spread, instantly clearing the eyes of the two men.

Rather than having it torn to pieces by Lei Hu, taking out two would allow one to remain...

However, the tiger had no intention of listening to the two anymore. Its body crackled with lightning, and a bolt of lightning shot directly toward the spot where Zhou Qing was standing.

With significant blood loss and current physical exhaustion, Zhou Qing's speed and reaction time are no longer what they used to be.

When the lightning struck, Zhou Qing barely managed to maintain his protective shield, but it was instantly neutralized and shattered.

The aftershocks of the lightning struck Zhou Qing, causing blood to gush from his body and worsening his injuries.

As Zhou Qing watched Lu Ye and Wu Jing's retreating figures, a shadow crossed his face.

Knowing he couldn't keep the Thunder Profound Fruits, Zhou Qing spat out a mouthful of blood and could only grit his teeth as he threw the three Thunder Profound Fruits at the Mad Spirit Thunder Tiger.

Then, it accelerated and left the area.

Suddenly, all the pressure fell on Liu Zheng alone.

Left with no other choice, Liu Zheng could only follow suit and throw out all four Thunder Profound Fruits.

Sure enough, when it saw all seven Thunder Profound Fruits flying towards it, the violent fluctuations in the eyes of the Mad Spirit Thunder Tiger immediately dissipated.

It was intelligent enough to know that the item had been returned, and that if the pursuit continued, the two humans would fight desperately.

If they were to use that method of turning it into a bomb, even it wouldn't be able to withstand it.

For ferocious beasts, being injured is a major taboo.

At that moment, Lu Ye turned around and happened to see this scene.

Looking at the seven spirit fruits beside the claws of the Mad Spirit Thunder Tiger, Lu Ye shook his head.

If they had offered enough reward earlier, instead of just asking him to help drive away the Mad Spirit Thunder Tiger with only one fruit, then the two of them, like Wu Jing, would have been able to keep the spirit fruit and wouldn't have had to escape injured.

Now that they've escaped so far, they've ultimately gained nothing and even lost an arm. What does it mean to maximize losses?

After a moment of thought, he looked at the seven spirit fruits that even the Mad Spirit Thunder Tiger's two claws couldn't pick up.

Lu Ye finally understood what it meant to be a "junior" who couldn't seize such an opportunity.

The next second, Lu Ye led the two of them directly to the Mad Spirit Thunder Tiger.

Experiencing the power of this ferocious beast at the late stage of the fifth rank up close, Xiao Qingyin and Wu Jing both instinctively shrank behind Lu Ye.

"Little tiger, you can't seize this opportunity. Leave six behind." Lu Ye said with a smile after coming over.

He felt that he was still too much of a righteous cultivator.

If he were a demonic cultivator, he would need far more than just six Thunder Profound Fruits by now.

Even the little tiger's core... I want it all!

Including the three people who just cried for help, whether or not they are saved, their storage rings will be completely robbed by the demonic cultivators.

This incredibly ferocious Thunder Tiger, which was in front of three Grandmasters from the Western Regions, couldn't help but tremble when it saw Lu Ye's kind smile...

However, out of dignity as a high-level ferocious beast and out of love for the Thunder Profound Fruit, the Mad Spirit Thunder Tiger roared at Lu Ye.

Even if you beat it to death... it will never take out the Thunder Profound Fruit!

"Still not willing?" Seeing this, Lu Ye's smile became even more amiable.

He is about to break through to the Earth Realm, so naturally the more resources the better.

Moreover, Lu Ye was somewhat interested in the lightning-tempering power contained within the Thunder Profound Fruit.

These are characteristics that ordinary fifth-tier spiritual herbs and fruits do not possess.

In an instant, the Mad Spirit Thunder Tiger felt an extremely terrifying pressure fall on it!

At this moment, the Mad Spirit Thunder Tiger felt as if it were facing... a top-tier beast king of an even higher level!
The Mad Spirit Thunder Tiger was originally a beast king, but at this moment, it seemed to be suppressed to the level of a cub.

"Roar... Awoo..."

The Mad Spirit Thunder Tiger quickly swept out the Thunder Profound Fruit beside it with its claw, decisively choosing to back down and retreat.

The secret realm is rich in spiritual herbs and fruits, but it also has a mortal enemy.

If injured, the mortal enemy will certainly not let go of this excellent opportunity to hunt.

Seeing that the little tiger wanted to retreat, Lu Ye left all seven spirit fruits behind. After thinking for a moment, he indeed sucked up another one and threw it to Lei Hu.

"I said I'd give you one, so here you are."

Suddenly, a feeling arose in the mind of the Mad Spirit Thunder Tiger... How could this human be both bad and good?!
He could have taken them all, but I didn't dare refuse, and he even gave me one...

the other side.

Zhou Qing and Liu Zheng fled for several hundred meters.

The secret realm is filled with mountains and forests. After venturing into the forest, I discovered that the mad tiger behind me had indeed not followed me.

The two exchanged a glance, a hint of gloom appearing in their eyes.

After putting in so much effort, I ended up with nothing.

Looking at the Thunder Tiger in the distance, which still seemed to be afraid of the young cultivator, Liu Zheng sighed: "It seems we were all wrong. That young man is indeed very strong. He alone can keep that tiger from advancing."

"If we had known this would happen, and if we hadn't been so stingy, and had taken out two Thunder Profound Fruits, we should be able to keep one like Wu Jing, so it wouldn't have been a wasted trip."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Qing remained silent, but his gaze grew even more sinister.

Now, having gained nothing and nearly lost half his life to Lei Hu, Zhou Qing had already accumulated a great deal of resentment.

“Now even the Thunder Profound Fruit that Lei Hu had taken has been taken by him… If this news is released, I believe some people will be interested!” Zhou Qing said slowly.

Upon hearing Zhou Qing's words, Liu Zheng's face changed color: "Brother Zhou, are you crazy?! That person can even suppress the Mad Spirit Thunder Tiger... It's best if we don't provoke him."

"We really have no way to protect those Thunder Profound Fruits; those with the opportunity and ability will have them."

Liu Zheng regretted it the most. Judging from the fact that the person was willing to leave one for both Wu Jing and Lei Hu, he could have left one Lei Xuan Fruit if he had been willing to give it up himself.

Zhou Qing was clearly no longer listening to Liu Zheng's words.

After staring intently into the distance for a couple of seconds, Zhou Qing turned and left.

Even if that person really is a ninth-level Grandmaster of the Mortal Realm, there are other ninth-level Grandmasters in the secret realm.

Now, the mad tiger has one Thunder Profound Fruit, Wu Jing has one, and he alone holds eight...

This is equivalent to having the opportunity to undergo eight rounds of body tempering by the power of thunder!
Even if the success rate is only 50%, there are still four chances to temper the body.

Which other Grandmaster at the ninth level of the Mortal Realm wouldn't be tempted?
Zhou Qing didn't believe that his strength could surpass all others in the mortal realm and make him invincible below the Earth Realm!
Watching Zhou Qing leave, Liu Zheng, who had known this friend for many years, glanced at Zhou Qing's expression.

Then, Liu Zheng realized that Zhou Qing hadn't let go. He shook his head and helplessly chased after her.

the other side.

Wu Jing watched as the Mad Spirit Thunder Tiger, having taken a Thunder Profound Fruit, showed a hint of human gratitude and ran away, then glanced at the terrifying killing god beside her...

"Thank you again for saving my life, senior. As for what happened earlier... it was just a coincidence, I didn't mean to."

　Thank you all for voting and following!
