Zhao Yan was in high spirits. He carried his hoe and rushed to Wuzhuang Taoist Temple. In the Wilderness, there were ferocious mountains, barren mountains and rivers. Occasionally, there would be ferocious insects in the forest.
They were ferocious and their eyes were green. When they roared, the tall trees trembled in the sound waves, and the rocks rolled down. If it wasn't for the Invisibility Talisman, he wouldn't have survived a day in the Wilderness.
In the sky, there would occasionally be ferocious birds flying past. Most of them had strange appearances, and their deep eyes scanned the earth. Once they found prey, they would burst out with a strong voice that seemed to be able to pierce through gold and crack rocks, causing people's eardrums to hurt.
With a pounce and a grab, a ferocious beast was captured and torn apart in the sky. Large pieces of flesh and blood fell from the sky.
Zhao Yan maintained his reverence as he carefully walked along the twenty-mile mountain road. When night fell, there was a Taoist temple on the mountain ahead. The Taoist temple wasn't big, and it was faintly discernible in the night.
"Zhenyuanzi, Grandpa is here."
Zhao Yan sneered. Even though he was physically and mentally exhausted, as long as he thought of the humiliation he had suffered during the day, he was still full of energy.
The mountain was not high. He climbed for an hour and finally reached the gate of the Fifth Manor.
The gate was simple and unadorned, about twenty feet tall and five feet wide. The gate was tightly shut, and there were two beast rings on it.
Looking at the words " Wuzhuang Taoist Temple " on the gate, Zhao Yan seemed to hear Zhen Yuan Zi's indifferent words.
After a long time, he withdrew his gaze and began to work around Wuzhuang Taoist Temple. He wanted to find a low wall to climb over.
Wuzhuang Taoist Temple was a small Taoist temple after all. Most of the walls were less than ten feet. Occasionally, the mountain soil was uneven, and the walls were even shorter.
After finding a spot, Zhao Yan grabbed the hoe and jumped. He grabbed the wall with both hands and the hoe landed on the wall with a crisp sound.
However, there was no movement in Wuzhuang Taoist Temple. With the Invisibility Talisman, no one outside would notice any movement he made.
His hunger almost stopped him from climbing in. Finally, he landed in Wuzhuang Taoist Temple and smiled silently.
"In front of the Ginseng Fruit Tree in the backyard, I'll steal the hammer used to strike the Ginseng Fruit first.”Zhao Yan was making small calculations as he silently patrolled the many rooms in Wuzhuang Taoist Temple.
……
In Wuzhuang Taoist Temple, Zhenyuanzi was sitting cross-legged in a hall. His eyelids were drooping and his hands were resting on his knees, motionless.
His drooping eyelids suddenly opened, and he raised his head slightly. His deep gaze passed through several solid walls and saw a half-open door.
He pinched his fingers gently, shook his head slightly, and closed his eyes again.
…………
"System, will the outside world notice this door?”Zhao Yan looked at the half-opened door behind him, deeply worried.
Ding dong. The Invisibility Talisman could only conceal sounds, but it could not conceal the movement of objects.
Zhao Yan hesitated. A single door might not arouse suspicion, but if several doors opened one after another, it would attract Zhen Yuan Zi's attention. With this Almighty's comprehensive search, even if he couldn't find Zhao Yan, he would be able to sense that something was wrong through the subtle changes in the environment.
"Forget it, I'll give up on the golden hammer. The mission is more important.”Zhao Yan muttered and made a decision. His gaze swept across the room with hope and he shook his head in disappointment.
After leaving the house, he began to search Wuzhuang Taoist Temple. The Ginseng Fruit Tree was easy to find. In Journey to the West, it was said to be located in the backyard. Although the Taoist temple was simple, it occupied a large area.
After about five minutes, Zhao Yan found the backyard where the ginseng fruit tree was planted in the complicated path.
After entering the backyard, he saw a towering tree standing in the vast mud. Its thick roots were like candles entrenched on the ground, and its branches and leaves were dense. In the meantime, there were babies holding their arms and hanging on the branches, swaying gently in the breeze.
The baby's facial features were clear, and his skin was fair and tender. His entire body emitted a faint glow. Some of his facial expressions were smiling, some were crying, and some were deep in thought.
"The Ginseng Fruit is indeed lifelike.”Zhao Yan sighed slightly. He knew that it was a fruit, but at first glance, he almost mistook it for a baby.
"From today onwards, you are mine.”After Zhao Yan sighed, his heart was burning with excitement. He felt very good when he thought of Zhenyuanzi crying in the cave from now on.
"System, how do I use this hoe?”
He could not wait to dig it out. He decisively took off the hoe on his shoulder. The hoe was golden in color, about the length of an adult's arm, and it flickered with multicolored light.
Ding-dong. The host only needs to dig hard at the Ginseng Fruit Tree.
"I see." Zhao Yan nodded and once again used the Answer All Questions card."Tell me, if I dig the Ginseng Fruit Tree, will the invisibility charm lose its effect? Also, the digging time is from one second to sixty seconds.”
If he failed to dig Zhenyuanzi's life root, he would definitely die. Therefore, he needed more detailed information in order to be safe.
Ding-dong. Once the Ginseng Fruit Tree is attacked, the Invisibility Talisman will be exposed. Also, since the Ginseng Fruit Tree is an immortal root, it will take about eight seconds.
"Eight seconds?" Zhao Yan was slightly stunned. Eight seconds was a blink of an eye in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of a mighty person like Zhen Yuan Zi, it was enough time to kill tens of thousands of people.
"If I don't fight, I'll die. I have no way out.”
Zhao Yan saw it very clearly. He had no way out and could only risk his life!
He raised the hoe with both hands and looked at the huge Ginseng Fruit Tree. A ruthless look flashed through his eyes as he decisively swung down.
Crack.
The hoe dug into the fruit tree. Almost at the same time, the hoe turned into a golden light and swam around the Ginseng Fruit Tree.
The moment Zhao Yan appeared, the Taoist temple fell silent. Almost the second he appeared, an angry roar came from the Taoist temple.
"Who dares to enter the Fifth Manor at night?"
In the third second, Zhenyuanzi angrily appeared in the backyard of the Ginseng Fruit Tree. He looked at Zhao Yan coldly and frowned." How did you get into the Fifth Manor?"”
Zhenyuanzi had thought that some Gold Immortals had come to steal the fruit, so he had come here in anger. However, he found that it was the human being he had accidentally met during the day, that ant.
"Senior, I came to the Fifth Manor at night, and there is one thing I don't understand.”Zhao Yan's eyes flashed. It seemed that the hoe could block Zhen Yuan Zi's senses. He remained calm in the face of danger. He bowed slightly to stall for time and said,""Senior, why did you call us humans ants today?”
This sentence was to stall for time, but also his last hope. As long as Zhenyuanzi gave a proper explanation, he would return the stolen Ginseng Fruit Tree after completing the task.
"Ant of a lowly race, you entered my Fifth Manor at night.”Zhenyuanzi's eyes were emotionless. He looked at Zhao Yan with contempt and waved his long sleeve. A gust of wind with a terrifying aura swept toward Zhao Yan.
"So Great Immortal Zhen Yuan Zi also discriminates against races.”Zhao Yan looked at the strong wind, but his expression did not change. He secretly activated the Teleportation Charm and looked at Zhen Yuan Zi coldly with disdain in his eyes.
"This is the last time I'll call you senior. The next time I see you, I'll take your life.”
The Ginseng Fruit Tree disappeared and transformed into a golden hoe that Zhao Yan grabbed. A strong gust of wind blew, and it was very close to him.
Zhao Yan's figure strangely disappeared.
"Grandpa, I've dug up the Ginseng Fruit Tree.”
Finally, a mocking voice echoed in the air.
