Jiu Shen arrived in a place full of overgrown trees that stood more than thousands of meters in height. Jiu Shen looked like an ant beneath these huge trees.
The occasional cries of savage beasts and the singing of wild birds echoed throughout this lush forest. Jiu Shen looked around him with a calm expression as if he had already expected to see this.
Truth is, he was not surprised to see this forest at all. He had seen a much larger forest in his past life and even the trees in that forest had pierced the clouds with their humongous length. The ones in front of him at this moment paled significantly in comparison...
"It should be here." Jiu Shen muttered to himself as he checked the map inside his head. From what he saw, the Merciless Lightning Dao Fruit was located inside this forest. This was an Origin-rank spiritual fruit with an element of lightning. It was capable of enhancing one's physical body and it can also allow a cultivator to be enlightened with the element of lightning.
Jiu Shen walked calmly within the forest as if it was his own backyard. He did not even bother to conceal himself despite being in a dangerous place.
Countless pairs of red eyes suddenly emerged. However, Jiu Shen merely disregarded them and continued walking on a straight path.
Awooo!
The savage beasts were enraged at Jiu Shen's lack of reaction. They then slowly revealed themselves while glaring at Jiu Shen with malicious gazes. This human actually dared to ignore them? Truly tired of living!
Dozens of dark-colored wolves growled threateningly at Jiu Shen. These wolves were five times larger than normal wolves and they also had one sharp horn on top of their head. They emitted a thick aura of death just from standing there. From this alone, anyone can already tell that they are dangerous. However, Jiu Shen merely walked past them and treated them as if they were dogs.
Awoo!
"Noisy." Jiu Shen shot a glance at the leading wolf and flicked his fingers. A small pebble hurtled towards this wolf and it directly penetrated the wolf's skull which immediately killed it. Seeing the sudden death of their leader, the wolves became horrified. They silently retreated with their tails tucked between their legs. Such a scary human! They don't want to face him anymore!
After the wolves left, Jiu Shen kept the corpse of the dead wolf leader and continued on his journey. The Merciless Lightning Dao Fruit was just close.
Jiu Shen's eyes flickered with anticipation after this discovery. He silently hoped that these savage beasts were edible. That way, he could get a fresh ingredient for a delicious meal...
After walking for another two hundred meters, he could finally see the silhouette of a tree with purple leaves. It was about twenty meters tall and it occasionally produced sparks of lightning around its trunk.
Jiu Shen raised his head and saw five mtur Merciless Lightning Dao Fruits. Seeing this, Jiu Shen swiftly dashed towards the tree and plucked the mtur fruits without hesitation.
However.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
The earth suddenly trembled just right after he placed the five Merciless Lightning Dao Fruits inside his space earring. He knew that the two savage beasts were finally here.
Hiss!!
Hiss!!
Two loud hissing sounds echoed inside the forest. At this moment, Jiu Shen saw two gigantic snakes looking at him with fury. Their huge pairs of eyes spurted flames as they stared at Jiu Shen.
