Chapter 133: Five Thunder Fruits Are About to Ripen, the Brats Climb the Mountain Early
“Scatter!”
The numerous prodigies retreated far away.
At this moment, the five-colored lightning had just begun to be absorbed, and those Thunder Beasts hidden within the five-colored lightning would all appear.
Their task was to guard the Five Thunder Fruits and ensure their successful ripening.
Before that, all the Thunder Beasts would become extremely violent, crazily attacking any existence near Five Thunders Mountain, eliminating any possible threats.
Even Lei Wanjun flew to a higher altitude, waiting for the right moment.
The instant they retreated, countless bolts of lightning struck their original positions.
Countless Thunder Beasts, some hovering in the air, some standing on Five Thunders Mountain, let out earth-shattering roars.
All the Thunder Beasts’ eyes turned scarlet, and a wave of violent auras rose.
However, they did not leave Five Thunders Mountain but gathered towards the mountaintop.
“Little Brother, the fruits are about to ripen, hurry.”
Chu Xin flipped up, tore through the air, and headed straight for the top of Five Thunders Mountain.
“Don’t go, wait until the five-colored lightning is completely absorbed.” Long Shaoyu quickly reminded her.
The Thunder Beasts were currently in a berserk state. Moreover, the five-colored lightning had not yet completely disappeared, and the Thunder Beasts could still use the five-colored lightning to fight, making them extremely powerful. Entering Five Thunders Mountain at this time was not a wise choice.
This was also why the numerous prodigies chose to stay away from Five Thunders Mountain.
They had to wait until the Five Thunder Fruits were completely ripe and the five-colored lightning had completely disappeared. At that time, although the Thunder Beasts would still guard the Five Thunder Fruits, they would not be able to use the five-colored lightning to fight, and their strength would be greatly weakened.
That was the best time to enter Five Thunders Mountain and seize the Five Thunder Fruits.
“Big Brother, I’m going too.”
After putting away the grill and the cauldron into his Spatial Ring, Chu Chen’s small body rose into the air and also entered Five Thunders Mountain.
They didn’t care how powerful the Thunder Beasts were. They only knew that if they waited any longer, the fruits might be snatched away by others.
“Are those two brats crazy?”
The numerous prodigies frowned. The Thunder Beasts were at their strongest at this moment. Entering Five Thunders Mountain at this time was simply asking for trouble.
Unfortunately, Chu Xin and Chu Chen didn’t know this, and even if they did, they wouldn’t care.
At this moment, the two siblings had already entered the attack range of the Red Flash Thunder Beasts.
Crack!
Bolts of red lightning struck down from the sky, forming a dense net that blocked almost all paths.
“Slash!”
Chu Xin and Chu Chen shouted in unison, their childish voices echoing on Five Thunders Mountain.
The next moment, a huge saber ray and a huge sword ray were simultaneously unleashed.
Wherever they passed, the red lightning shattered, and the Thunder Beasts perished.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The two small figures continued to tear through the air towards the mountaintop without slowing down.
Crack!
More red lightning struck again, and countless Red Flash Thunder Beasts regrouped, and their strength was even greater than before.
Chu Xin and Chu Chen were surrounded by dense saber ray shields and sword ray shields. They dodged when they could, and when they couldn’t, they used their shields to withstand the attacks, occasionally launching counterattacks.
One by one, the Red Flash Thunder Beasts fell from the sky like dumplings, creating a spectacular scene.
“We can’t let them get ahead.”
Although the numerous prodigies knew that this was not the best time to enter Five Thunders Mountain, seeing the two brats getting closer and closer to the top, they couldn’t wait any longer.
“Charge! Seize the Five Thunder Fruits.”
◈◈◈
The numerous prodigies shouted and charged towards the top of Five Thunders Mountain.
“Ah!”
However, the next moment, countless screams echoed through the sky.
Not all the prodigies had the strength of Chu Xin and Chu Chen to dodge and withstand the attacks of these Thunder Beasts.
“It’s too tragic.”
The Square-Faced Youth and the Young Archer muttered.
Because the two brats entered the mountain early, the battle for the Five Thunder Fruits started early, and the casualties would be even heavier.
“I knew it, with those two brats around, things would never go according to plan.”
Long Shaoyu rubbed his forehead, his tone somewhat helpless.
“Young Master, should we go?”
The Young Archer asked.
Long Shaoyu shook his head and said, “There are five seventh-rank initial stage Thunder Beasts at the top of Five Thunders Mountain. Now that the five-colored lightning has not been completely absorbed, those seventh-rank Thunder Beasts can unleash the power of seventh-rank middle stage. Even those sixth-rank Thunder Beasts may be able to unleash combat power comparable to seventh-rank. Entering Five Thunders Mountain at this time is equivalent to suicide. Let’s wait and see.”
“What about those two brats?” The Square-Faced Youth asked.
“They are very strong, don’t worry.”
Long Shaoyu said lightly. At the same time, he looked up at Lei Wanjun, the only one who hadn’t moved in the high altitude. “Keep an eye on Lei Wanjun, don’t let him sneak attack those two brats.”
According to his estimation, the two brats joining forces should be able to defeat a seventh-rank middle stage Thunder Beast, but it would be hard to say if Lei Wanjun took the opportunity to sneak attack.
His task was to delay Lei Wanjun for a while if he tried to sneak attack.
It wasn’t that he was worried about the safety of the two brats. He mainly didn’t want the two brats to get into trouble before the fight for the greatest opportunity.
The Five Thunder Fruits were not very useful to him, but those two brats had very special physiques and could absorb their energy to enhance their strength, which would be very beneficial for him in the fight for the greatest opportunity.
Therefore, he had to find a way to help those two brats.
This way, he could also gain the favor of the two brats and make them trust him more.
At this moment, Lei Wanjun, who was hovering high in the sky, looked at the two brats getting closer and closer to the mountaintop and frowned slightly.
“These two brats are not simple.”
Lei Wanjun muttered. He hadn’t paid much attention to them before, thinking that these two brats would be killed by the berserk Thunder Beasts. But now he had to change his mind.
The speed at which the two brats were advancing was almost the same as the speed at which the five-colored lightning was gathering towards the mountaintop.
If he didn’t make a move, those two brats might really reach the top at the same time the five-colored lightning was completely devoured and the Five Thunder Fruits ripened, and snatch the Five Thunder Fruits.
Thinking of this, Lei Wanjun flashed and appeared above the top of Five Thunders Mountain. With a wave of his hand, he unleashed ten thousand thunderbolts, killing the Thunder Beasts that were blocking him. Then he looked at the two brats not far away and said in a deep voice, “You two little friends, how about we join forces? After killing these Thunder Beasts, I’ll take the Purple Thunder Fruit, the White Thunder Fruit, and the Black Thunder Fruit. The Blue Thunder Fruit and the Red Thunder Fruit will be yours, one for each of you.”
“Fellow Daoist Lei, you promised to give us the remaining two Five Thunder Fruits. You can’t go back on your word.”
A prodigy spoke up.
Lei Wanjun turned his head, and two purple lightning bolts shot out from his eyes, instantly turning that person into ashes. He said coldly, “It’s not your place to tell me what to do.”
The numerous prodigies immediately fell silent, their hearts heavy.
If those two brats really joined forces with Lei Wanjun, then they might really have no chance with these Five Thunder Fruits.
After unleashing a sword ray to destroy the Thunder Beasts in front of her, Chu Xin looked up at Lei Wanjun and said in a childish voice, “You are so shameless, wanting three fruits all to yourself, and only two for the two of us?”
“That’s right, that’s right, so shameless.”
After killing a group of Thunder Beasts, Chu Chen also nodded repeatedly. “How about my sister and I each take two, and you take one, what do you say?”
