193: Chapter 192 Taking the Fruit”What exactly is this fruit that makes the bloodline within me yearn for it so intensely?”

Gu Yuena shook her head violently, attempting to shake off this powerful attraction.

Her expression was one of struggle, fine beads of sweat seeping from her forehead, and it was only with great difficulty that she managed to break free from that temptation.

However, after breaking free, there was no look of relief on her face; instead, it was filled with fear.

She knew deep down that this power, which could make her bloodline yearn so intensely, must be extraordinary.

Zi Yan, on the other hand, had eyes full of longing. She raised her hand to clutch tightly at Chen Yang’s sleeve, asking coquettishly, ”Chen Yang, what exactly is this fruit?”

Her voice carried a hint of urgency and curiosity, like a child longing for an answer.

Chen Yang raised his hand to gently pat Zi Yan on her little head, a mild smile appearing on his face as he patiently explained, ”This fruit is called the dragon-phoenix origin fruit. It was formed over long ages by the fusion of countless dragon clan essence blood and phoenix clan essence blood. For magical beasts, as long as they consume this fruit, they can obtain the legendary Dragon Phoenix bloodline.”

His voice was steady and powerful, every word seeming to carry a kind of magic that left Zi Yan and Gu Yuena listening intently.

”Both of your true forms are dragons. Naturally, your internal bloodlines will constantly remind you to consume this fruit in order to evolve.”

After hearing Chen Yang’s explanation, Zi Yan and Gu Yuena suddenly realized the truth.

A flash of surprise crossed their eyes, and they also understood the importance of this fruit to them.

A look of excitement appeared on Zi Yan’s face again. Her eyes were filled with anticipation, as if she could already see how powerful she would become after her bloodline evolved.

Although Gu Yuena was still a bit worried, being by Chen Yang’s side caused her to gradually set her mind at ease.

”I don’t need it; it’s better to let Zi Yan have this fruit.”

Gu Yuena gazed at the glowing dragon-phoenix origin fruit, her eyes full of longing, yet she still tried hard to suppress the desire in her heart, her voice carrying a hint of reluctance and helplessness.

Hearing this, Chen Yang pulled Gu Yuena over without hesitation, gently wrapping his arm around her shoulders. With a mild smile on his face, he patiently explained, ”The energy contained in this fruit is too vast. Given Zi Yan’s current strength, she simply cannot fully digest it. After all, the energy within is enough to allow a Dou Zong to directly advance to Dou Sheng.”

Chen Yang’s eyes revealed care and wisdom, ”Furthermore, I won’t let Zi Yan enjoy this fruit alone. I plan to combine it with other rare medicinal herbs to refine two Grade 9 Profound Pills that both of you can digest and absorb.”

Chen Yang paused slightly, a confident light flickering in his eyes, ”In this way, not only will you be able to evolve your bodily bloodlines, but you also won’t need to fall into a long slumber to increase your strength. You only need to progress step by step, and you can steadily advance to become Dou Sheng powerhouses.”

Hearing Chen Yang’s words, Zi Yan jumped up again in excitement, cheering loudly, ”That’s great!”

Her face was beaming with a bright smile, and her eyes sparkled with anticipation. Regarding the dragon-phoenix origin fruit, Zi Yan had been very conflicted.

On one hand, her internal bloodline instinctively yearned to possess this fruit alone to complete its evolution. On the other hand, Gu Yuena had been very caring towards her over these years, and the two were like sisters. Now that Gu Yuena had voluntarily given up the right to the fruit, Zi Yan felt filled with both touched emotion and guilt.

However, with Chen Yang proposing this perfect solution, Zi Yan finally no longer had to struggle with this. She didn’t have to go against her own heart, nor did she have to feel sorry for Gu Yuena. Both of them would have the opportunity to obtain the fortune brought by this miraculous fruit, evolving their bloodlines into the powerful Dragon Phoenix bloodline.

Chen Yang stepped forward steadily and slowly raised his hand, preparing to pluck the precious dragon-phoenix origin fruit.

However, the moment his fingers were about to touch the fruit, it suddenly erupted with a powerful force of resistance. A terrifying aura rushed toward him like a surging tide; it was shockingly the strength of a peak Dou Zun.

This force attempted to repel Chen Yang, preventing him from getting close, as if it were guarding its final dignity.

But how could Chen Yang be stopped by this mere bit of power?

Relying on his current powerful strength, this force of resistance was nothing more than a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

His expression was calm, and a layer of faint golden light surged around him, easily blocking that aura outside.

Subsequently, with a gentle pluck, the fruit was obediently held in his hand.

Chen Yang carefully placed the fruit into a pre-prepared jade box and stored it properly. As the fruit was plucked, the barrier shrouding it seemed to lose its support, instantly turning into countless points of light and dissipating into the air.

In an instant, the corpses of countless Void Ancient Dragons and Ancient Heavenly Phoenixes appeared on the original grassland without any cover.

The originally verdant grassland was instantly dyed dark red by blood, appearing exceptionally eerie and terrifying.

Without the suppression of the dragon-phoenix origin fruit, the negative emotions contained within these corpses were released into the air like a dam bursting. The entire world seemed to be filled with emotions of unwillingness and regret.

This emotion had a rather serious impact on Zi Yan and Gu Yuena, their faces gradually turning pale, and their eyes revealing a hint of confusion and pain.

Seeing this, Chen Yang immediately unleashed his powerful Dou Qi, erecting a sturdy protective shield for the two of them to block the intrusion of these negative emotions.

He comforted them softly, ”Don’t be afraid, I am here.” Under Chen Yang’s protection, Zi Yan and Gu Yuena gradually regained their calm.

”Alright, there is another good thing nearby; let’s go.”

Chen Yang raised his hand, and a powerful spatial force enveloped the four of them. In the blink of an eye, they instantly vanished from this grassland full of corpses.

Meanwhile, outside at the Dou Sheng Ruin, the atmosphere was exceptionally tense.

”Damn it, why is this barrier so sturdy!”

Xuan Mingzi gazed at the barrier that was being constantly attacked yet only rippled, the anger in his heart no longer able to be suppressed, and he roared furiously.

His face was full of anxiety and irritability. As the time Chen Yang had spent entering the ruin grew longer, the unease in his heart grew increasingly intense.

He thought to himself, estimating that all the good things inside had already been scavenged by Chen Yang. If they were any slower in getting in, they would probably not even be able to drink the soup.

”Everyone, is there any way to quickly break this barrier?”

Bing He’s voice was icy, as if carrying a hint of frost.

His eyes flickered with a greedy light; he was also drooling over the things inside the Dou Sheng Ruin.

After all, how could treasures left behind by a Dou Sheng powerhouse be bad?

Even the most ordinary one would be enough to greatly increase the strength of Dou Zun powerhouses like them.

After hearing Bing He’s words, everyone fell into silence. They looked at each other, their faces full of helplessness.

Over these days, many Dou Zun powerhouses had constantly bombarded the barrier, but the barrier was like a wall of bronze and iron; no matter how they attacked, it only caused ripples. To break through the barrier, it seemed they could only wait for its energy to dissipate on its own.

However, no one knew how long that would take.
