Han Sen now knew the power of these people. They were very close to super creatures, but their powers were unstable. There were too many impurities in their powers.
After they became blood-horn shura, their fitness was close to that of a Celestial Being. They could unleash their powers, but they couldn't even beat Han Sen, who had a strength of two hundred and sixty. Their power was very weak, and their purity was low.
And when they used their powers, they didn't seem to be in sync with each other. Han Sen wasn't sure if it was because they weren't used to it, or if it was because the powers were too unstable and difficult to control.
"It looks like I overestimated the effects of the shura liquid. It's not as effective as I thought it would be."
Han Sen used his Flaming Rex Spike to smash Manager Qu to the ground. He pointed at his head and said, "I'll ask you a few questions. Answer me, and I'll let you go."
"Don't waste your time. You won't get anything out of me." After Manager Qu said that, his face changed. His body started to inflate like a balloon.
Pang!
Han Sen jumped back, but Manager Qu's body exploded like a balloon. His organs fell to the ground and began to rot.
Han Sen's face changed. He didn't believe someone would be willing to die so easily. If they could live, they wouldn't want to die. But Manager Qu's behavior made him frown.
"It looks like they've been tampered with. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so determined." Han Sen frowned as he looked in the direction Little Angel and Moment Queen had fled.
Not long after, the two of them returned. Han Sen was disappointed. Although they had managed to catch up with the other five, they had not been able to capture a single one of them.
"Who are these people?"
Han Sen frowned. He couldn't find anything that could identify them, either. They were all wearing the same things, and it was obvious they had been given the same things. There was no way he could find anything useful.
However, Han Sen did find a few vials of the Shura liquid that they had injected into their bodies. Han Sen was going to take it back and have it tested. He wanted to see what kind of medicine it was that had such an effect.
Han Sen stored the Shura Liquid in his bag and headed towards the Empty Ivy. Roars and collisions constantly resounded from that direction. It seemed that the battle was very intense.
Han Sen didn't want to draw too much attention, so he put away Little Angel and Moment Queen. Then, he snuck up on the mountain and saw the black-flame phoenix flapping its flames. It was heading for the Empty Vine.
But before the flames could get very far, a giant green elephant raised its trunk and spat out green water. It extinguished the black flames of the black-flame phoenix.
Outside the Empty Vine Mountain, there were eight super creatures guarding it. They blocked the attacks of the super creatures, preventing them from approaching the mountain.
At the peak of the mountain, there was a man wearing a black robe. His eyes were red, and his ears were long and pointy. He was guarding the four Empty Fruits, waiting for them to ripen.
The Empty Fruit was now purple and red. It glowed like glass, and its aroma spread for dozens of miles. It was enough to make one's heart tremble, as if it had been injected with a powerful energy.
"It looks like the Empty Fruit is going to ripen soon." Han Sen was happy to see this.
The situation was better than he had expected. He was afraid that the Devil-Blood King would wait until the fruit ripened before coming out to clean up the mess.
But now, the Devil-Blood King and his super creatures were being attacked by a group of super creatures. This was what Han Sen wanted to see, and it was the best thing for him to do.
Seeing that the Empty Fruit had not yet ripened, Han Sen did not rush to attack. Instead, he observed the battlefield.
There were nine super creatures that wanted to go for the Empty Fruit, and Han Sen had seen many of them before.
The black-flame phoenix and the green kirin were there, as well as the winged black tiger, the armored monster, the black skeleton, and the white goose. There were three others that Han Sen had not seen before, but they were also very fierce.
Aside from the black-flame phoenix and the green kirin, who were attacking the giant green elephant, the other super creatures were all fighting one-on-one. None of them could reach the peak.
The Devil-Blood King had eight super creatures, and he did not know where they had come from. They were each stronger than the other, and they did not look like they were going to lose.
Although the armored monster, the black skeleton, the black-flame phoenix, and the green kirin were all suppressing their opponents, it would take a while for them to reach the peak.
The four Empty Fruits were about to ripen, and it looked as if the black-flame phoenix and the others would not be able to reach them in time.
Han Sen hid atop a mountain and summoned Moment Queen. He quietly asked, "Moment, how long do you think it will take for the fruit to ripen?"
Moment Queen looked at the Empty Fruit and frowned. She said, "There is something wrong with them."
Han Sen was shocked. He looked at the Empty Fruit, but he could not see anything wrong with it. He asked, "What is the problem?"
Moment Queen thought for a moment, and then said, "I have seen the Empty Fruit before. It was a hundred years ago, but there is no way three of them could have appeared out of thin air. Even if there were three, it would take a few hundred years or a thousand years for them to grow to this level."
"Are you saying three of the Empty Fruits are fake?" Han Sen was shocked.
"I don't know, but they all look real," Moment Queen said, looking at the four Empty Fruits.
"Haha!"
Han Sen wished to ask something more, but he suddenly heard the laughter again. He looked around, but there was no one there. All he could see were the creatures fighting.
"Weird. What is going on?"
Han Sen thought to himself. Someone had been following him all this time, and he had not noticed.
"No, that's not right." Moment Queen frowned. She stared at the four Empty Fruit, and the confusion in her eyes deepened.
"What else is wrong?" Han Sen asked.
"It's not just the number of fruits that is wrong. The fruits themselves are wrong, too," Moment Queen said.
"What is wrong?"
Han Sen didn't rush Moment Queen, though. He knew something was wrong, and he didn't want to rush her.
"Although I have never seen a ripe Empty Fruit before, there is something different about them," Moment Queen said, pointing at the Empty Vine.
Moment Queen wanted to explain, but the four fruits suddenly shone brightly. They smelled like clouds, and it was as if the fruits were about to ripen.
