Soul Emperor Martial God-Chapter 780: Wind Thunder Holy Fruit

"Good grief," Xiao Yi chuckled as he looked ahead at the densely packed Wind Thunder Fruits.

"This trip hasn’t been in vain after all."

He had come to the Wind Thunder Dangerous Land for training, but in truth, the experience hadn’t been particularly effective.

It was mainly to complete the task set by Duanmu Palace Master and to take a trip here.

Now, these Wind Thunder Fruits, each of significant value, were indeed a fine harvest.

"Big brother..." Lei Bao and the other two were already showing feverish excitement in their eyes and made as if to go pick them.

"Easy there," Lei Hu barked softly, glaring at them, "Have you forgotten just how perilous the Thunder Pool is?"

On hearing this, the other three couldn’t help but shudder.

"What’s the matter?" Xiao Yi inquired.

"In the Thunder Pool," Lei Hu said gravely, "apart from the rampant and dense thunder and lightning, the farther one travels, the more terrifying the force becomes."

"There’s also another most troublesome danger."

"What is it?" Xiao Yi asked, his tone indifferent.

Though he had some understanding of the situation in the Wind Thunder Dangerous Land,

Lei Hu and the others were Asura Warriors with plenty of experience in the Wind Saint Territory, clearly knowing more.

"Wind Thunder Winged Lions," Lei Hu said with a grave face.

Wind Thunder Winged Lions, the dominant demon beasts of the Wind Thunder Dangerous Land, ranked Level 9.

In terms of strength, they reached the Heavenly Extreme Realm First Layer.

Of course, Xiao Yi or Lei Hu could handle a creature at the Heavenly Extreme Realm First Layer.

The problem was that Wind Thunder Winged Lions tended to live in groups.

"Is this the lair of the Wind Thunder Winged Lions?" Xiao Yi frowned.

"Yes, sir, exactly," Lei Hu confirmed somberly, "Inside the Thunder Pool lies the lair of the Wind Thunder Winged Lions."

"However, they generally live deep within the Thunder Pool."

"Because the thunder and lightning are extraordinarily terrifying there; they prefer living in such astonishingly electrically charged places."

"As for us martial artists training in the Thunder Pool, no one dares to go too deep."

"Of course, if we ventured too deep, we wouldn’t be able to withstand the power of the thunder and lightning either."

Xiao Yi nodded.

Lei Hu continued, "The presence of Wind Thunder Fruits inside the Thunder Pool is no secret."

"After all, this place is rife with rampaging thunder and lightning; it’s normal for it to have Thunder Attribute Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures."

"But such an occurrence of over a hundred fruits appearing at once is quite rare."

Xiao Yi knitted his brows, "If I’m not mistaken, the reason this place is the lair of the Wind Thunder Winged Lions, aside from being a haven of rampaging thunder and lightning where they’re comfortable."

"It must also be because of these Wind Thunder Fruits."

"Right," Lei Hu responded, "Wind Thunder Winged Lions feed on Wind Thunder Fruits."

"These rare Heavenly Materials and Earthy Treasures not only are treasures for martial artists but also are great supplements for demon beasts with a Thunder Attribute."

"Previously, there were martial artists who tried to pluck these Wind Thunder Fruits."

"But without exception, they all perished here."

"Hmph, those beasts are quite tyrannical," the three Lei Bao said coldly.

"These Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures are nurtured by nature and should be available to everyone, yet they’re completely monopolized by those beasts."

"You guys leave first," Xiao Yi said gravely, "I’ll give it a try."

"Sir, you plan to...?" Lei Hu widened his eyes.

Xiao Yi nodded, "I’ll try to pluck these Wind Thunder Fruits before the Wind Thunder Winged Lions react."

Lei Hu’s eyes lit up, "Given your speed and strength, there shouldn’t be much of a problem."

"Okay, we’ll leave first so we don’t hold you back later."

The four prepared to depart.

However, at that moment, several Wind Thunder Winged Lions emerged slowly from the electricity hundreds of meters away.

"Roar." A few Wind Thunder Winged Lions let out a roar.

Then they lazily lay down on the ground and fell soundly asleep.

They were situated right beside the Wind Thunder Fruits.

"Damn it, why have those beasts come out?" Lei Hu’s expression changed.

All five hid themselves, taking advantage of the dense thunder and lightning around them.

The Wind Thunder Winged Lions hadn’t noticed them.

"Sir, the situation may be quite out of the ordinary," Lei Hu looked towards Xiao Yi and spoke gravely.

"In the past, I’ve never heard of Wind Thunder Winged Lions coming out from the depths to the outskirts, let alone guarding beside the Wind Thunder Fruit."

Xiao Yi furrowed his brow. "They seem to be very cautious."

Xiao Yi may not be clear about situations like the Thunder Pool.

But when it came to understanding demon beasts, Lei Hu was far from his equal.

Just as Lei Hu was about to say something, he noticed the astonished expressions on the faces of Lei Bao and the other two.

"What are you doing?" Lei Hu frowned at the three of them.

Lei Bao stretched out his finger, pointing ahead, and stammered, "Big... Big brother, you... look..."

Lei Hu followed the direction of Lei Bao’s finger.

Xiao Yi did the same.

Far away, about a kilometer out, there was a fruit that shone even brighter and exuded a more astonishing thunderous aura.

Around the fruit, the density of thunder and lightning was continuous.

If one didn’t look carefully, it would indeed be hard to notice at first glance.

"The Wind Thunder Holy Fruit." Xiao Yi’s expression changed abruptly.

No wonder Xiao Yi’s expression turned such.

The Wind Thunder Fruit was a Peak of Eighth Grade rare treasure, even more precious than the typical Ninth-grade Heavenly Materials.

And the Wind Thunder Holy Fruit was the king of Wind Thunder Fruits.

Its effects were, adding on, more than a hundred times stronger than those of the Wind Thunder Fruit.

Such treasures were coveted even by a strong figure like Xiao Yi.

"So it’s the emergence of the Wind Thunder Holy Fruit, no wonder those Wind Thunder Winged Lions are being so cautious," Xiao Yi said in a deep voice.

Lei Hu nodded and said, "Judging by the aura of that Wind Thunder Holy Fruit, it should be close to maturity."

"The environment around the Wind Thunder Holy Fruit will give rise to many Wind Thunder Fruits, no wonder we’ve encountered the rare sight of more than a hundred of them."

"Sir." Lei Hu looked at Xiao Yi thoughtlessly and said, "Within the Thunder Pool, the Wind Thunder Winged Lions are the ruling demon beasts, we can’t just force our way in."

"In the depths of the Thunder Pool, the number of Wind Thunder Winged Lions is absolutely no less than a hundred."

"And most importantly, it is rumored that there is a Wind Thunder Winged Lion King here, a Heavenly Extreme Fifth Stage Demon Beast."

"Within the Thunder Pool, that’s its territory, the Wind Thunder Winged Lion King is nearly invincible."

"I still plan to give it a try," said Xiao Yi gravely, "you guys go first."

"No," Lei Hu spoke gravely, "Sir, we can’t force it."

"Let’s try to lure away those beasts ahead."

"Sir, be careful to snatch the Wind Thunder Holy Fruit and these Wind Thunder Fruits, then immediately escape."

"Hm?" Xiao Yi looked at Lei Hu, frowning.

Lei Hu gave a sheepish smile and said, "Since I said I would follow you, sir, naturally I want to share your concerns."

"We are far more familiar with the surroundings of the Thunder Pool than you are, sir."

"We have our own ways to escape afterward, you can rest assured."

"Afterward, we will meet outside the Wind Thunder Dangerous Land."

"Do you trust me?" Xiao Yi asked, still frowning.

"I do," Lei Hu nodded without hesitation.

The next second, Lei Hu and the other three’s figures flashed, emerging from hiding.

"You beasts, take a punch from your uncle Tiger!" Lei Hu threw a punch through the air.

The fierce punch, combined with the ferocity of the Thunder Gang, was so powerful that it knocked a Wind Thunder Winged Lion hundreds of meters ahead tumbling several times from its slumber.

The roar of several Wind Thunder Winged Lions turned angry in an instant.

Lei Hu and his companions took to their heels and ran.

The Wind Thunder Winged Lions angrily pursued them.

But within a few breaths’ time, Lei Hu, his three companions, and those Wind Thunder Winged Lions had all departed.

Xiao Yi frowned as he watched the direction in which Lei Hu and the others left, then shifted his gaze to the Wind Thunder Holy Fruit a kilometer away.

His figure flashed, moving forward instantly.
