Thorn Rampart Trees

"It seems that this kid has some skills." "To be able to find a precious tree in such a huge forest is not a simple matter."

One of the candidates from Jizhou was staring at Xia Ping.

"Hmph, it's just an unorthodox method." In the end, a true martial artist still depends on their martial arts strength. "Everything else is just empty talk." The black-clothed examinee sneered. He stared at Xia Ping with a gloomy expression and was extremely unfriendly.

However, he didn't reveal it on his face, and he merely watched from the side while various poisonous schemes surged into his heart.

"Brother, you're too awesome."

Feng Hetang was overjoyed. "If you can even find a precious tree like the Treasure Meat Tree, what else can you not do?" "With these gemstone fruits, we won't have to worry about being hungry anymore."

Jiang Yaru and the others were also very surprised. They wanted to get these gemstone fruits immediately and have a feast.

"Don't worry."

Xia Ping waved his hand, stopping these people's movements. He stared at that precious meat tree, not acting rashly.

"Big Brother, could it be that there's danger here?" Feng Hetang swallowed his saliva and suddenly recalled what had happened at the lake earlier. That incident still left him with lingering fear.

Xia Ping did not speak. He found a stone the size of a watermelon on the ground and threw it over with a whoosh.

Just as the rock was flying in mid-air and was about to hit the precious tree, two or three trees that were covered in thorns started to shake.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

In the blink of an eye, dozens of thorns burst out from the trees. Each thorn was as hard as steel and incomparably sharp. They tore through the air with a piercing sound.

With a bang, this watermelon-sized stone was struck by the Thorn Rampart Tree, and it was instantly torn into pieces before being blasted into powder. It fell noisily onto the ground and scattered all over the ground.

This scene sent chills down her spine.

"This, this!"

Feng Hetang was flabbergasted by the sight before him. He had never expected that it would be so dangerous to step on the Gemstone Fruit. If he had entered rashly earlier, he would have been shot into a beehive.

The black-clad examinees and others were astounded as well.Fortunately, they had learned their lesson from just now. Even though they knew that there were treasures ahead, they did not act rashly. Otherwise, they would definitely have suffered many casualties this time.

"That's the Thorn Rampart Tree!"

Nangong Wu said in a deep voice, "This is a strange tree that coexists with the Precious Tree of Meat. It's equivalent to a guard. "Any creature that dares to approach the Precious Tree of Meat to pick the fruit will be killed by the Thorn Rampart Tree."

"It's said that this is a method used by the Treasure Meat Tree to hunt for food. Through the fragrance of the fruit, it attracts those monsters over. Then, they will enter the trap and be killed by the Thorn Rampart Tree.

"The flesh and blood left behind by the dead beasts will seep into the earth and become nutrients for the Treasure Tree.

"You can say that this is a man-eating tree, extremely dangerous!"

What?!

Feng Hetang was flabbergasted. "There are over a hundred Thorn Rampart Trees growing all around here. If all of them burst forth at the same time and shoot out their thorns, it would be like shooting a laser beam at a warrior. "Even a martial artist would be beaten into a beehive."

"If that's the case, how are we going to pick these precious flesh fruits?"

He looked around. The Treasure Meat Tree was surrounded by densely packed Thorn Rampart Trees. These strange trees were like guards protecting the surroundings, loyal and devoted.

Once he got close to them, he would be instantly killed by the Thorn Rampart.

Furthermore, these thorns were extremely terrifying. The speed at which they shot out was no less than a bullet. If an ordinary martial artist were to step into this range and be swept away by a barrage of spears, they would likely die without a doubt.

"This is like the moon in the water, the flowers in the fog. How are we going to harvest them?" Jizhou District's candidates were also stunned. There was food in front of them, but they couldn't get it. There was nothing more depressing than this.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Instantly, Jiang Yaru, Chu Rong, and Nangong Wu all looked at Xia Ping. If anyone present could pick this fruit, it was probably only Xia Ping.

"Leave it to me."

Xia Ping looked at the trees in front of him indifferently. Although these thorn Rampart trees were very powerful, they could not break through the defense of his Beiming Protection Technique. He even knew the Kun Peng Steps.

Once he used this footwork, the thorns would not be able to get close to him. He was fearless.

Whoosh!

In the blink of an eye, Xia Ping moved forward and stepped into the defensive range of the Thorn Thorn Rampart Tree.

Rumble!

Instantly, over a hundred Thorn Rampart Trees began to shake violently as if they had been enraged. They had never expected that there would be a living being who would be so bold as to barge into their territory.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

With a few breaths, several hundred streaks of black light appeared. They tore through the air, creating air-splitting sounds as they bombarded Xia Ping from all directions. There was practically no gap between them, and they wanted to turn Xia Ping into a beehive.

However, Xia Ping was unmoved. As though he were taking a stroll in the park, his feet moved with strange steps. It was as though his body was equipped with the wings of a Kun Peng. Numerous figures of Xia Ping appeared on the ground.

Bang bang bang!!!

The thorns hit the air and smashed into the ground, creating huge pits. The ground shook and rumbled.

Huge rocks weighing hundreds of tons were also hit and instantly shattered into pieces. Shattered rocks scattered in all directions like bullets and dust billowed.

Large trees that were over a hundred meters tall and could only be hugged by five to six people were struck. The entire tree cracked and fell down from high above. It was like a storm that swept through the surroundings.

"Big brother is too awesome."

Feng Hetang was flabbergasted. Under such a ferocious attack, any martial artist would most likely die. However, Xia Ping seemed to be taking a stroll in the park and easily passed through. The thorns were unable to harm him at all.

Jiang Yaru and the others were also shocked. They finally truly felt Xia Ping's strength now. With just this kind of pace, who else could defeat him? Wanting to hit Xia Ping was just wishful thinking.

After a few breaths, Xia Ping arrived at the Precious Tree. Reaching out, he plucked two gemstone fruits the size of watermelons.

Just as he was about to return and attack the area through the Thorn Rampart Tree again, a cold and cruel voice that sounded like a cold wind suddenly sounded. "Shoot him!"

The person who spoke was surprisingly the black-clothed examinee. His face revealed a savage and cruel expression.

At this moment, two or three Jizhou exam candidates walked out. They sneered and took out a bow. They nocked an arrow and shot at Xia Ping.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

More than ten arrows shot out like sniper bullets. Their speed was extremely fast. They tore through the air and carried a ruthless and vicious aura.

They wanted to kill Xia Ping without mercy.

"What are you doing?"

Jiang Yaru shouted angrily. She was both shocked and angry. She would never have thought that these Jizhou District candidates would be so ruthless, to actually kill at this time.

Chu Rong, Nangong Wu, and Feng Hetang were also enraged, and their eyes were completely red.
