“You despicable human cultivators, dreaming of seizing my Spirit Fruit!” The Crocodile King roared furiously, its massive jaws opening wide as a pitch-black energy orb formed within.
The dark orb transformed into a streak of black light, leaving a trail in the air as it hurtled toward Wyatt.
Wyatt’s pupils contracted sharply. The black orb emanated a strong sense of danger.
Wyatt dared not be careless. Golden flame patterns ignited on his skin, and golden flames gathered in his left hand.
“Blazing Sky Fist!”
“Golden Flame Fist!” Wyatt shouted fiercely, launching a punch.
A golden flame fist transformed into a golden fireball, colliding with the oncoming black orb.
There was no explosive sound. The black orb and the golden fireball quickly entangled with each other.
After three seconds, with a bang, the tangible black energy wave exploded, extinguishing the golden fireball instantly.
Wyatt grunted, retreating over ten steps before stabilizing himself.
It was clear that Wyatt had suffered a setback in this exchange.
As Wyatt retreated, four Blackscale Bloodcrocs from the Demon Sect realm seized the opportunity to pounce on him viciously.
By the pond, only Leo and Seraphina remained inactive.
They quietly observed the battle between the cultivators and the Blackscale Bloodcrocs until the Crocodile King forced Wyatt back.
“Seraphina, it’s time for us to act.” Leo glanced at Seraphina beside him, extending his right hand to summon the Dragon Sword.
The Dragon Sword emitted a clear dragon’s roar as Leo’s figure turned into a white streak of light, charging into the pond.
As soon as Leo entered, three Blackscale Bloodcrocs lunged at him ferociously.
Leo wielded the Dragon Sword, an ultimate spiritual weapon, unleashing powerful sword beams that sliced the three Blackscale Bloodcrocs into pieces.
Lightning flashed around Leo’s legs as he shot forward. Seraphina followed closely with her Skywater Blade, displaying exquisite footwork.
Any Demon General or demon sovereign realm Blackscale Bloodcrocs that attacked them were split in two by sharp icy white sword beams and translucent blue water light sword beams.
As Leo and Seraphina swiftly approached the small island in the pond, Sky Blade, The Malevolent Twins, and Skull Walker had already entered within three hundred meters of the island.
“Triple Slash of the Sky!” Sky Blade’s eyes emitted fierce knife beams.
Three solid black knife beams, emanating a domineering dark aura as if from the depths of hell, slashed at three Blackscale Bloodcrocs.
Deep wounds appeared on the hard backs of the three Blackscale Bloodcrocs, exposing their bones.
Severely injured, the three Blackscale Bloodcrocs’ massive bodies crashed heavily into the pond.
Sky Blade’s figure flashed, closing in within two hundred meters of the island.
“Sky Blade, you won’t get ahead of us!” Evan Malice and Derek Malice shouted after killing the Blackscale Bloodcrocs blocking their path, also closing in within two hundred meters of the island.
“Stop fighting. The Spirit Fruit will ultimately belong to me!” Skull Walker, shrouded in gray-white light, also reached within two hundred meters of the island.
Holding a skull staff, Skull Walker’s old eyes gleamed cunningly as he stared intently at the eight Jade Spirit Crystalfruits.
Seeing Sky Blade, The Malevolent Twins, and Skull Walker getting ahead of him, Wyatt, who had just been forced back by the Crocodile King and entangled by four Demon Sect realm Blackscale Bloodcrocs, became furious. Golden flames surged from his Golden Gourd Warhammer.
“Get lost!” Wyatt roared, swinging his Golden Gourd Warhammer to smash all four Blackscale Bloodcrocs into the pond.
Wyatt’s violent aura erupted as he flashed forward to within three hundred meters of the island.
Behind Wyatt, Walker and Willow also killed or severely injured the Blackscale Bloodcrocs blocking their way, closing in within four hundred meters of the island.
Within five hundred meters of the island, only the Crocodile King and a few scattered Blackscale Bloodcrocs remained.
“You despicable human cultivators deserve to die!!” The Crocodile King roared angrily.
Despite its rage, the Crocodile King dared not leave the island. It had to protect the Jade Spirit Crystalfruit tree at all costs.
Black light surged from the Crocodile King’s hard black back.
“Black God Bell!” The Crocodile King roared as the black light soared into the sky, forming a solid black giant bell above the island.
Mysterious runes flickered on the surface of the black bell before it descended to envelop the entire Jade Spirit Crystalfruit tree.
The black bell was semi-transparent, allowing a faint view of the fruit tree inside through its walls.
With the fruit tree protected, the Crocodile King’s terrifying eyes turned towards Sky Blade and the others approaching the island.
The Crocodile King stomped its four feet on the ground and charged out from the island. Its massive dark body hovered above the pond water.
Sky Blade and his six companions focused their gazes without retreating. Their spiritual power surged wildly within them.
“Despicable human cultivators, die!” The Crocodile King roared again as black light burst from its massive body.
The destructive black light condensed into seven black spears.
Covered in mysterious runes, the black spears emitted an extremely terrifying aura.
The seven black spears streaked through the air with destructive energy, shooting towards the seven people.
The spears left charred marks in their wake as they flew through the air.
Seeing the black spears shooting towards them, Sky Blade, The Malevolent Twins, Skull Walker, and The Webb Siblings focused their gazes intently.
The seven sensed extreme danger from the black spears.
Facing the incoming black spear, Sky Blade coldly shouted. The sinister and domineering black knife beams from his large black blade surged violently.
Sky Blade gripped his blade with both hands and slashed fiercely.
A massive black knife beam slashed towards the black spear.
On The Malevolent Twins’ side, demonic energy surged wildly from their bodies, forming a giant shield in front of them.
The shield was covered in rolling demonic energy with a ferocious demon pattern appearing on it.
Skull Walker’s pupils contracted as sinister gray-white energy surged wildly in front of him, forming a giant gray-white vortex.
Golden flames surged from Wyatt’s giant golden hammer as it transformed into a golden flame pillar that blasted towards the black spear.
Walker slashed out with his blade, transforming into a golden flame blade beam that cut towards the black spear.
Willow drew her golden longbow fully and shot out a sharp golden arrow.
The seven black spears clashed with their attacks, erupting into seven massive black energy shockwaves.
The terrifying power of the shockwaves forced Sky Blade and his six companions to retreat continuously.
The Crocodile King’s massive body also retreated slightly in mid-air.
Wyatt was the first to stabilize himself. His bull-like eyes turned towards the Jade Spirit Crystalfruit tree covered by the black bell on the island.
In an instant, Wyatt’s speed surged as he transformed into a golden flame streak of light rushing towards the island ahead of everyone else.
Seeing this, Sky Blade and The Malevolent Twins’ expressions changed drastically.
