It didn't take long to arrive at the area where the Divine Blood Fruit was growing.
Since it was the fruit that everyone was fighting for, it was naturally right in the center of everyone.
It was in the place that was right in between the different formations that the four sects created.
So it was equidistant to all four of them.
The formation that they took was also mobile since most of what made the formation that they created was light enough to lift. At the same time, the most important part of their formations were the people that made up the formations.
That meant that as long as they brought everyone with them, they would be able to use their formations.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have set their formations so far away from where the Divine Blood Fruit was growing in the first place.
It was only because it was mobile that they set their formations so far away.
After arriving at the area the Divine Blood Fruit was growing, Lin Fan didn't go any closer.
This place was a small hill that was on the side of this White Frost Mountain and other than the small plant that was growing right at the top of the hill, there wasn't anything else that was there.
With the way that everything was cleared out, it was almost as if this was the only thing that could grow there.
But that wasn't the case.
The reason why there was only this single plant there was because it had stolen all of the nutrition in the ground on this hill. It was a higher ranked plant than any other that would try to grow there, so they had no choice but to yield to this single plant.
That was because this was the Divine Blood Fruit plant.
Though it was growing out in the open like this, there wasn't a single person that seemed like they were planning on going forward to pick it.
There even seemed like a zone around the plant that no one dared to move close to.
It was as if this was the line of scrimmage around this plant.
The reason for that was because of all the people that were here.
There weren't just a few people that were around this plant, there were a bunch of people that were standing around the plant all waiting for the Divine Blood Fruit to ripen. All of them were looking for a chance to take this Divine Blood Fruit for themselves.
With how many different people were here, not a single one of them dared to approach the Divine Blood Fruit or else they would become the center of attention.
The moment that they stepped forward, they would be onset by all of the others that were watching over the Divine Blood Fruit.
No one was dumb enough to turn themselves into a target for everyone, so of course they wouldn't pass this line of scrimmage and just watch over the others.
As expected, there were those from the four sects that were also sent here to watch over this.
Lin Fan recognized them right away since they were similar to the groups that he had seen before. They had the same marks as the groups that had tried going for the Nine Lives Tree.
It was the four factions that were under the four sects that had been sent to watch over this Divine Blood Fruit.
After looking around for a bit, Lin Fan suddenly gave a nod as if he had found what he was looking for.
He suddenly turned to Ye Qing Huan to say, "We're done here, let's go."
"Huh?" Ye Qing Huan was confused when she heard this, but Lin Fan didn't wait for a single second as he started to move.
With how silent he was, there wasn't a single person that noticed him suddenly jumping out of the tree that the two of them were in.
There was a sliver of bitterness that was on Ye Qing Huan's lips as they curled slightly upwards.

She couldn't help feeling a bit strange since...
Well, this was what she had been doing to Lin Fan and now he was doing it to her.
She had been leading him on like this the entire time because she had found it interesting, but it certainly was strange for her to be treated like this by Lin Fan now.
It really was a strange feeling when the shoe was on the other foot.
Still, that didn't mean that she had to remain silent.
Ye Qing Huan jumped up and followed Lin Fan, but the moment that she caught up to him, she immediately asked, "What are you planning to do?"
Lin Fan didn't keep her in suspense like she had done to him and just said with a smile, "It's time to make them fight."
Ye Qing Huan was very confused to hear this, but she didn't show any hesitation as she kept asking her questions. It was different for Ye Qing Huan since she was higher in position in the first place, so there was nothing holding her back from asking the questions.
Lin Fan didn't answer any of these questions and just said, "Wait and see."
Ye Qing Huan raised a brow, but that didn't stop her from asking more questions.
She really held nothing back when she was with Lin Fan.
Too bad that he didn't answer any of the questions that she asked.
Instead, Lin Fan was busy giving orders to something that was in his sleeve.
...
"Roar!"
It wasn't just a single roar that rang out, but several different roars that suddenly rang out.
All of the people who had been watching over the Divine Blood Fruit were completely caught off guard by these roars that suddenly rang out through the air.
They quickly looked in the direction that the roars came from and found that...
There was a wave of spirit beasts that were charging in their direction.
