"Let's go over and see which set these little guys' battle formation is from the palace." After the few of them left, a woman in battle armor slowly walked out from the side. It was one of Luo Heng's wives.

A trace of curiosity flashed through her beautiful eyes as she looked at the nine youths that had already snuck into the valley. She withdrew the aura from her entire body, then her body flashed as she followed along.

This valley was surrounded by mountains on three sides. There was only one entrance and it was also an exit. The entrance was very narrow and was about two meters wide.

A human could pass through unhindered, but for a gigantic demonic beast, it was a little difficult. It was very likely that it would be stuck there.

In the valley, it was not as yellow as the weeds on the outside. The grass here was lush green and the spirit energy was richer. It could be considered a cultivation treasure. The benefits of cultivating here were self-evident.

Deep in the valley, opposite the entrance, was a steep cliff.

The grass grew lush and green as if nourished by the spiritual energy. It was about half a meter tall, and one could only see the upper half of a person's body as they walked through it.

On the cliff face, which was one meter above the ground, was a two meter tall tree. It had lush green leaves and luxuriant branches; it was a patch of emerald green. On the tree, there were a dozen or so dark green fruits, each about the size of a fist.

This was a high level one spirit fruit, the Green Spirit Fruit. It contained dense spirit energy, and it had a strong attraction for both martial artists and demon beasts.

As long as a warrior took two, he would be able to break through to the middle stage of the warrior realm, saving a lot of spiritual energy from accumulating over a long period of time.

However, this Azure Spirit Fruit was obviously not ripe yet. Its surface was still a bit light green, and it hadn't completely transformed into a deep blue yet.

Under the Green Spirit Fruit, a huge demon beast with the appearance of a dual blade mantis, covered in dense green scales, was lying on the grass. Although it had yet to gain consciousness, it knew that the Green Spirit Fruit was of great use to it.

Its pupils were violet and very strange.

Even though the Purple-eyed Mantis, which was at the level of a half-step Demon General, was not the weakest among the Demon Beasts that were at this level, it was still considered a mid-tier monster.

Suddenly, a faint sound came from behind. The Purple Eyed Mantis' nose twitched. It turned its head around and let out an angry hiss.

The beast's eyes revealed a hint of hesitation as it looked at the ripening Green Spirit Fruit above its head. It didn't leave, but a human actually came to the tiger's mouth to devour it. What audacity!

It faintly felt that these people's aura was very familiar, appearing in its senses a quarter of an hour ago.

Under normal circumstances, it would have long jumped out and chopped those people into pieces.

However, the green spirit fruit was about to ripen. It had to worry that humans were cunning and might fall into a trap of luring a tiger out of the mountain.

Who would have thought that these people would not give up, daring to fight over its treasure. How could he not be angry? Moreover, he sensed that these people were heading in his direction, with a clear goal in mind.

Fifty meters away, the five squadron members who were guarding against the ambush heard the furious hissing sound of the Purple Eyed Mantis. Their bodies couldn't help but slightly tremble.

"Go!" Since it has already discovered us, there's no need for us to hide. We can go straight over to it and find the Green Spirit Fruit. The white-robed youth said in a low voice, the broadsword in his hand.

He took a big step forward and lightly said, "It's all ready. After entering, listen to my orders and get ready to set up the formation."
