After Mo Juren picked a Tianling Fruit and returned to the shore, it was the turn of Meng Hui from the Giant Sword Sect to pick the fruit. Mo Juren and Wang Ying from the Huadaowu guarded the entrance of the cave to prevent this man from changing his mind.

Meng Hui followed the same process as Mo Juren. He first stepped onto the stone pillar in the lake, then went up to the island to get a Tianling fruit from the wooden box, and then came back.

The next thing was for Wang Ying to do was to get the fruit, and again nothing happened, and he returned safely.

This went on for three rounds until only one fruit was left on the tree.

Wang Yinggang took his third fruit and returned to the shore. He smiled at Mo Juren and said,

"My fellow cultivator, the last fruit is yours. Go ahead!"

Mo Juren walked towards the lakeshore as if nothing had happened. When he was about to jump into the center of the lake, Wang Ying and Meng Hui, who were behind Mo Juren, looked at each other as if something interesting was about to happen.

Unexpectedly, Mo Juren seemed to have eyes on his back and stopped when he reached the lake.

Wang Ying immediately said,
"My fellow cultivator, what are you doing? Aren't you going to pick the last Heavenly Spirit Fruit?"

Mo Juren turned around and said with a laugh,

"Oh, I almost forgot. When we came here as casual cultivators, we were given a safe storage bag that only allowed us to put things in but not take things out. This is a good place to put these three Heavenly Spirit Fruits."

After saying that, Mo Juren took out the wooden box containing the Tianling Fruit from his arms and pretended to transfer it to the safe storage bag.

Unexpectedly, Wang Ying interrupted him and said,

"Wait a minute, fellow Daoist! You absolutely cannot do that!"

Mo Juren stopped and looked at Wang Ying in confusion.

"Why do you say that, Brother Wang? If I take these three Heavenly Spirit Fruits outside, I can directly exchange them for a Foundation Establishment Pill. It's safer to put them in this storage bag."

Wang Ying's eyes moved, and he said with great regret,
"...Alas, fellow Daoist, you only know one side of the story. You only want to exchange the spiritual medicine for the foundation-building pill after leaving the forbidden area. Have you ever thought about whether you can walk out of the forbidden area alive?"

Mo Juren's eyes turned cold and he said,

"Why do you say that, friend Wang?"

Wang Ying stared at Mo Juren's hand, and when he saw him stop, he continued,

"To be honest with you, fellow cultivator, we sect cultivators have all received warnings. In this bloody trial, the most dangerous thing is not the fighting in the first two days, nor the monsters on the crater, but the dawn moment when we prepare to leave the forbidden area on the fifth day!"

Mo Juren deliberately kept the wooden box ready to be put into the safe storage bag, and asked in confusion,

"Dawn hour? What does that mean?"

Wang Ying glanced at Meng Hui, then explained to Mo Juren,
"The so-called dawn is the darkest time before leaving the forbidden area. At that time, all the surviving monks will gather near the exit and wait for the passage to appear."

"The elite disciples of the seven major sects will form their own gangs and temporary groups to kill the enemy monks and compete for the spiritual medicine."

"If you don't have a few spiritual herbs, no gang will take you in. Then there will be only one outcome: you will be harvested before you escape from the forbidden area!"

After listening to Wang Ying's story, Mo Juren finally understood a little, so he said,
"Oh, I see. Thank you, Brother Wang, for telling me these secrets."

Wang Ying seemed to be relieved at this time, and was about to continue to encourage Mo Juren to go to the island to pick fruit, but unexpectedly Mo Juren continued,
"However, I still think it is safer to put it in a safe storage bag," he said, and with a move of his hand, the wooden box was placed in the safe storage bag given by old man Qiong.

Mo Juren said with a smile,
"After all, you can't snatch it now even if you want to, right?"

Wang Ying was so angry that he shouted,
"You!... You are such a fool. You are really ungrateful. Brother Meng! Do it!"

Meng Hui suddenly approached the lake shore, took out a monster corpse from his storage bag, and threw it directly into the lake.

Then he and Wang Ying flew back into the cave.

Mo Juren didn't know what they were planning, but he quickly chased them into the cave, secretly holding a demon bead in his hand, ready to let the two of them experience the power of the demon thunder in the cave.

Unexpectedly, Wang Ying took out a high-level talisman with great pain and said angrily,

"For a stinky casual cultivator like you, I am wasting a mid-level Earth Dragon Talisman. I am really pissed off!"

Next, he threw the activated talisman and immediately summoned an earth dragon out of the cave.

The earth dragon was not fast and did not attack Mo Juren. Instead, it crashed into the side wall of the cave.

Suddenly, loud noises were heard in the cave, and sand and gravel rolled down.

When Mo Juren rushed forward, the stones that were knocked down into the cave by the earth dragon mixed with the mud produced by the earth dragon itself, instantly blocking the entire cave.

Mo Juren took back the Earthly Evil Pearl with hatred, thinking that the earth and rocks blocking the road were not unsolvable. At most he could just spend more time cleaning it up later, and he would always be able to escape later.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, I found that there were unexpected changes on the lake behind me!

Mo Juren turned around suddenly and saw that the corpse of the monster that Meng Hui had thrown into the lake was now covered with many strange water-colored toads.

Each of these toads is only the size of a thumb, with shiny water-colored skin. Through their translucent bellies, one can vaguely see their blood vessels and internal organs. When they are submerged in water, their main bodies cannot be seen at all.

Although these guys are small in size, they have the advantage of being numerous. They suddenly emerged from the bottom of the lake in large numbers, making noisy sounds, and quickly devoured the monsters one bite at a time, leaving only their skeletons sinking to the bottom of the lake.

Mo Juren retreated to a corner of the cave, knowing that these little guys he had never seen before were probably not as simple as they looked.

So he immediately took out the Four Symbols Defense Formation from his storage bag to add an extra layer of protection for himself.

Soon, those water-colored toads that jumped out of the lake, after eating the corpses of the monsters, were still not satisfied and jumped towards Mo Juren's position.

Hundreds of carnivorous water toads jumped towards the cave together and trapped Mo Juren in a corner.

Fortunately, the Four Symbols Defensive Formation still had some effect. It kept the water-colored toads outside the formation, and not a single one could jump in. They kept piling up outside the formation more and more.

In order to drive away these monsters, Mo Juren cast a fireball spell, which amplified the evil spirit and formed a huge fire bomb, which he threw directly to the place where the monsters were most concentrated.

The fire bomb exploded with a bang, engulfing many water-colored toads in a sea of ​​fire.

Unexpectedly, the water-colored toad that was attacked by the magic was not seriously injured. Its translucent skin actually withstood the high temperature burning! (End of this chapter)
