At this moment, Qin Chen thought of the Heavenly Dao Tree and the Tree of Chaos in his Chaotic World. This dark divine fruit was somewhat similar to the Heavenly Dao Tree, containing the ultimate principles of heaven and earth.
However, the fruits of the Heavenly Dao Tree totaled one hundred and eight, while the dark divine tree produced ninety-nine. Indeed, divine fruits did not grow randomly.
What surprised Qin Chen even more was that the dark power flowed ominously around the dark divine tree, yet the dark divine fruits exuded a fragrant aroma. The surface of the fruits shimmered with radiance, each one translucent and colorful, with a delightful fragrance that filled the air. Various patterns of birds and beasts occasionally appeared on them, each fruit bearing a unique design, faintly visible.
Qin Chen looked around and noticed the divine phoenix fairy's carriage parked in a nearby open space, while the black-clad figure was seated at the very edge, staring intently at the divine tree, seemingly waiting for the fruits to fall.
Not just him, everyone present was sitting cross-legged nearby on this Stone Platform, some closer and some further away, gazing hungrily at the dark divine fruits, yet no one dared to make a move to seize them.
Why didn't they take action?
Qin Chen was curious. As soon as he sensed the protective array patterns swirling beneath the dark divine tree, he immediately understood.
Before the dark divine fruits matured, there were protective array patterns guarding the tree. Anyone who rashly approached would undoubtedly trigger these terrifying array patterns.
These patterns were at least of supreme level; with the strength of the heavenly prodigies present, if they dared to make a move, they would be obliterated in an instant, reduced to ashes with not even a trace left.
“Who is that? Don’t just stand there foolishly, quickly find a place to sit down. Don’t you know this is the Dark Holy Land? Disturbing everyone here for the dark divine fruits, can you bear the consequences?”
Someone sensed Qin Chen's presence behind him, immediately turning around to reprimand him, revealing an impatient expression.
This person was positioned at the edge of the crowd, and Qin Chen stood directly behind him, which caused some inexplicable annoyance and impatience.
The black-clad figure’s gaze turned cold, ready to scold, but Qin Chen waved his hand, stopping the black-clad figure from acting.
He chuckled, not minding them. Until he understood the situation, he had no intention of dealing with these Dark Clan members.
The commotion immediately attracted the attention of others present, and everyone turned around.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Qin Chen walked towards the center of the Stone Platform.
“Boldly, who are you, and who allowed you to move forward?”
The moment Qin Chen moved, it was as if he had provoked the wrath of the crowd, instantaneously a chorus of shouts rang out around him.
Qin Chen frowned. Was it not allowed to move forward here?
“Everyone quiet down.”
At this moment, the gazes of about ten handsome men and beautiful women in the center of the Stone Platform all turned towards him, their faces showing displeasure.
These individuals emitted a terrifying aura, each possessing remarkable cultivation, clearly the heavenly prodigies of the Dark Clan.
Their eyes carried an air of arrogance, looking down upon him as if he were an ant.
“Lord Tianhe, it was this brat who injured my subordinate earlier.”
At that moment, a loud voice suddenly resounded. On the outer fringes of the crowd, a young man missing an arm stood up, the very same one whose arm Qin Chen had previously severed. He anxiously pointed at one of the heavenly prodigies.
“Oh?”
The heavenly prodigy turned to look.
“You dared to attack my subordinate; you have quite a bit of audacity.”
Boom!
Though his eyes appeared calm, in an instant, it seemed as if a vast river of stars surged forth from the heavens and the earth, containing immense power of rules, with dark power soaring into the sky, as if it could obliterate everything.
