Crack!
The already cracked light shield shattered completely under the impact of the demon droplet, revealing the split Heavenly Eye Fruit right in front of Wang Xiaoqiang.
Wang Xiaoqiang caught a whiff of a spicy aroma from the fruit, so intense it was several times stronger than chili, causing him to sneeze three times in a row.
Yet, without delay, Wang Xiaoqiang swiftly plucked the Heavenly Eye Fruit, broke open its shell, and shoved the spicy fruit into his mouth.
The moment the Heavenly Eye Fruit entered Wang Xiaoqiang's mouth, all the cultivators' faces changed dramatically, and all the beasts roared in unison. Their expressions and cries seemed as if they wished to tear Wang Xiaoqiang into pieces and scatter him to the winds.
Wang Xiaoqiang paid no heed to these reactions. Once the fruit settled in his stomach, it no longer felt like a solid object, but rather like a worm. More precisely, the fruit transformed entirely into an aura.
This was an overwhelmingly intense and dominating aura, surging within like a fierce wolf or tiger. However, it wasn't crashing around chaotically; it followed a specific trajectory, surging upward from the abdomen, through the chest, past the neck, and up into the head…
"This... this..." Wang Xiaoqiang was momentarily stunned, realizing the Heavenly Eye Fruit was not what he imagined. He thought it would be a Heavenly Material, requiring significant effort to refine, taking at least a week even with the Five Elements Spirit Spring. Surprisingly, the Heavenly Eye Fruit required no refining, dissolving immediately into a potent aura upon ingestion…
After entering Wang Xiaoqiang's brain, the aura circled within, then, as if with intelligence, found its position and drilled into his brow…
"Ah…" Wang Xiaoqiang cried out in pain, then felt the aura piercing through his brow forcefully.
Then Wang Xiaoqiang perceived a scene in his mind. Although resembling the current view, it differed from what his eyes perceived—it was so clear he could see the trembling hairs on a person's face.
Raising his gaze toward the distant horizon, Wang Xiaoqiang saw a city, which was Anyang City.
Although Anyang City was at least eight thousand miles away, Wang Xiaoqiang could clearly see it, including every person and object within, and even the expressions on their faces.
This, this was too astonishing!
This, this was simply a Thousand-Mile Eye!!
"Hmm? Could it be, I've opened the Heavenly Eye, and this view is through it?" Wang Xiaoqiang subconsciously touched his still warm brow, finding the skin intact and unchanged.
"Hmm, why is there nothing?" Wang Xiaoqiang was filled with surprise and doubt.
As Wang Xiaoqiang stood bewildered, a rumble ensued, causing the entire mountain peak to boil with activity and the mountain itself to shake. The cultivators, zombies, and flying beast corpses simultaneously lunged to attack him…
Although the Heavenly Eye Fruit had entered Wang Xiaoqiang's stomach, his brow showed no sign of a Heavenly Eye.
Thus, everyone believed that the Heavenly Eye Fruit hadn't been refined yet.
In actuality, they, like Wang Xiaoqiang, thought refining the Heavenly Eye Fruit would be a lengthy process, so even though Wang Xiaoqiang swallowed it, it wouldn't be refined quickly. Now, they only needed to capture Wang Xiaoqiang, cut open his belly, and retrieve the fruit.
At this moment…
Wang Xiaoqiang became the target of everyone's ire.
Seeing countless people and beasts charging at him, creating immense pressure, Wang Xiaoqiang spun his body, suddenly releasing hundreds of sword lights from all over his body, the sorrowful Sword Qi shooting towards the oncoming people and beasts.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh…
Under the Sorrowful Sword Qi, some perished, some were injured, only a few powerful cultivators and zombies managed to withstand the sword light and attacked anyway.
Wang Xiaoqiang spun his body once again, and simultaneously, waved his right hand in front, whereupon his storage ring flashed, releasing eight red flying swords. These flew outwards from his body to the four directions, exploding mightily upon approaching the attacking cultivators and zombies.
Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!
The explosions erupted almost simultaneously, and although the cultivators and zombies were not killed, each was wounded.
Purple Sun Immortal, the King of Eastern Mountain, the elder beside the King, and the two powerful zombies suffered relatively minor injuries. Purple Sun Immortal, seeing Wang Xiaoqiang seize the Heavenly Eye Fruit, glared murderously at Wang Xiaoqiang, saying, "Brat, it's you again. Even if it costs me my life, I will kill you tonight."
The King of Eastern Mountain, desperate to possess the Heavenly Eye Fruit, used the Divine Maiden's Cauldron, yet in the end, it was someone else who benefited—none other than his hated foe, Wang Xiaoqiang. Enraged, he pointed at Wang Xiaoqiang, declaring, "Brat, if you don't want to die, obediently spit out the Heavenly Eye Fruit, or I'll cut you open..."
The two zombies guarding the Heavenly Eye Fruit, seeing a cultivator snatch the fruit, roared furiously with terrifying, enraged expressions, their cries capable of robbing one of their wits.
Wang Xiaoqiang dared not hesitate, summoning Ge Laoda and Little Yin, two peerless fierce ghosts, from the ring to shield him, while the Patterned Beast emerged from behind to guard the rear.
"Everyone, attack together. Seize this brat first." The King of Eastern Mountain urged the others, spitting blood from his mouth as he spoke—the self-generated counterforce earlier had severely injured him.
Boom boom boom…
Together, the people and beasts surged forward, charging Wang Xiaoqiang once more. Even without the King's command, the cultivators and beasts wouldn't allow Wang Xiaoqiang to leave.
With the support of the two fierce ghost puppets and the Patterned Beast, Wang Xiaoqiang leapt into the air, attempting to escape. However, all the zombies, noticing his attempt, looked up, their eyes shooting blue rays that intersected in the sky to form a blue light net, its powerful aura pressing down.
Wang Xiaoqiang, mid-flight, was forcibly suppressed by this pressing aura, unable to break through the blue light net no matter how he struggled.
"Heh heh, Wang Xiaoqiang, you can't escape. If you don't want to die painfully, obediently expel the Heavenly Eye Fruit from your stomach, or I'll cut you open..." said the King of Eastern Mountain sinisterly, drawing out an immortal sword and threateningly waving it at Wang Xiaoqiang, the cold gleam blinding.
"Brat, today next year will be your death anniversary," threatened Purple Sun Immortal with his sword pointed at Wang Xiaoqiang, his gaze filled with hatred and greed.
He wanted Wang Xiaoqiang dead and the Heavenly Eye Fruit in hand, but he felt no conflict between these desires; in his view, Wang Xiaoqiang was trapped, forced to relinquish both fruit and life.
"Awo~~ awo awo~~"
The two zombies guarding the Heavenly Eye Fruit locked their eerie eyes on Wang Xiaoqiang, emitting unpleasantly furious cries, their vicious faces showing an insatiable hunger to devour.
At this point, the Heavenly Eye Fruit had self-refined, granting Wang Xiaoqiang the Heavenly Eye, leaving him no way to relinquish it. Trapped, surrounded by foes eager to cut him open, his heart thudded wildly. Suddenly, something occurred to him, his gaze falling on the Divine Maiden's Cauldron beneath his feet.
After using the cauldron to break the light shield above the Heavenly Eye Fruit, the King of Eastern Mountain had yet to retrieve it.
Upon seeing the Divine Maiden's Cauldron, Wang Xiaoqiang scarcely hesitated, bending down to grab it. (To be continued.
