Of course, many people might covet the two fruits. Among them, there had to be some experts at the Peak of the Fate Realm, even experts of A Half Step to the Supreme Realm. It would probably be very difficult to grab the two fruits from right under their noses. Any carelessness would claim lives. Minghe certainly knew the risks.

Nobody could land on the sun and the moon in the Starry Sky Region. At least, on record, no creature had landed on them before. Perhaps only a few creatures could step on the two stars temporarily, but they could not sustain for a long time. Minghe roughly predicted that if he stepped on the two stars with his current Indestructible Demon Body, he would lose the ability to move, then die out in endless fire or cold air, and eventually perish.

If he could obtain the two fruits, take advantage of the Origin of the sun and the moon, and practice his Indestructible Demon Body to the extreme, Minghe might be able to survive in the two stars for a while. Meanwhile, he might be able to make a great fortune overnight, when everything above the sun and moon opened up for him.

It was not simple to seize the two fruits. Leaving aside so many experts, Hongjun might target the two fruits. Although they had decided to collaborate, Minghe did not trust Hongjun. Moreover, he knew little about Hongjun. It could be risky to join forces with such a mysterious figure.

While it was risky, it could be beneficial. Hongjun’s mystery also indicated that he was powerful. From his previous manner in the conversation, Minghe predicted that Hongjun might obtain some good Fated Chances, since he had come to the Battlefield of Gods and Demons for so long. As a result, Hongjun should now have some self-protection means at least. In cooperation with Hongjun, Minghe would feel less stressed.

And then, the next step was endless waiting. It was uncertain how long it would take for the fruits to mature fully. According to the present situation, it might take tens of thousands of years at least. During this period, more creatures would be attracted here. Until then, the fruits could not meet the needs of the people. It would be extremely difficult to grab the Fruits of Stars of the Origin.

Sitting cross-legged in the starry sky, Minghe also went into meditation. Because of the Star Tree of Origin, more and more Power of Stars gathered around. The star region had become a Holy Land of cultivation with intense Power of Stars, so Minghe would not miss such a good opportunity for cultivation.

After 60,000 years, the Star Tree of Origin had accelerated in absorbing the Power of Stars of the sun and the moon. Having sensed this sudden change, all who gathered there took tiny actions. Most of them began to gather in threes and fours. Some people of the same force also divided into many small groups. After all, when collaborating, people only trusted people familiar to them.

At this moment, Minghe and Hongjun opened eyes at the same time, and looked at the changing crowd. They looked at each other, the meaning of which was obvious. The fruits were about to ripen, so everyone who was attracted here could not wait anymore. Everyone had a goal, but the fruits were limited, so there would be a fierce battle.

In order to deter others, almost all people, more or less, showed some of their momentums. When countless momentums interacted in the starry sky, the atmosphere of the whole starry sky was uninspiring, as if the universe became very depressing, when the clouds gathered black above the sea before the storm.

Although the atmosphere was quite strange, it was convenient for Minghe. He looked around and counted the number of people who were attracted here by the Star Tree of Origin. There were more than 8,000 people in total, including over 1,000 experts of the Fate Realm. Among them, five people were at the peak, nearly a hundred people were at the Late Stage, and the rest were at the Middle Stage and the Early Stage. Fortunately, there were no expert who reached A Half Step to the Supreme Realm.

Minghe finally understood that despite the fact that the Fruits of Stars of the Origin were very good, the efficacy was inversely proportional to a man’s cultivation. Only a few experts at the peak of the Fate Realm came here. Thus, it could be seen that the fruits did little to entice experts who reached such a realm. He wondered why the five experts of such a realm came here.

Judging from their expressions, it was evident that they were targeting the two fruits with the Origin of the sun and the moon. Although he also aimed to obtain the two fruits, Minghe did not plan to take action at the beginning. All the five people were horrifyingly powerful. Without a formation, Minghe would be no match for them. Instead, he’d better reap the spoils when both sides were exhausted.

When the situation changed on Minghe’s side, Giant Beasts of Starry Sky in the huge star also stood up in succession. Meanwhile, they leaned back and roared, which shocked the starry sky and transmitted to a distant place hundreds of millions of miles away. Tremendous and violent momentums rose up to the sky, as if to terrorize those cultivators in the starry sky. The powerful momentum rushed at everyone like a huge wave.

The experts of the Fate Realm could withstand he shock of the momentum, but the others of the realm were not as lucky. Under the effect of the momentum, many people crushed to death, and others were injured. They stopped after retreating to a very distant place. They just wanted to reap the spoils in the dogfight, even the corpse of Giant Beast of Starry Sky. But now, it seemed that they were being too optimistic.

Seeing the situation, Minghe could not help shaking his head. As expected, greed was one of the original sins. Most of these people below the Fate Realm had reached Peak of the Zenith Heaven Realm or Half Step to the Fate Realm. Although they were powerful enough, it was obvious that they were not capable of participating in this matter. They gathered here by taking a chance, so they paid a heavy price for it.

Minghe ignored these people and focused on the huge star. Giant Beasts of Starry Sky’s sudden motion indicated the beginning of a great battle. Minghe and others wanted to seize these fruits, but these beasts also wanted to do so. A fierce fighting was unavoidable.

Now, only less than 100,000 beasts gathered in the huge star. Among them were over 2,000 from the Fate Realm. In terms of quantity, Minghe’s party had no advantage. The beasts had strong bodies, but they did not understand the Law of Weapons and Arrays. In this aspect, Minghe’s party had the upper hand.

Although the beasts were numerous, only about 2,000 beasts whose bodies had reached the Fate Realm, could actually pose a threat to Minghe’s party. However, the 100,000 beasts below the Fate Realm were merely a pile of cannon fodder. Even the cultivators at the Early Stage could kill them.

A pile of cannon fodder was inessential, but the 2,000-odd beasts were different. If they wanted to seize the fruits, Minghe’s party had to eliminate them or rush across their camps to get close to the Star Tree of Origin. Even if they did one point of the two, they still needed to be cautious of other cultivators’ attacks. After all, it was a battle over limited places.

To get what he wanted, Minghe naturally needed some countermeasures. While he was pondering, Hongjun’s voice suddenly came to his mind. “Minghe, the Fruits of Stars of the Origin will mature soon, so the fighting is bound to break out soon. At that time, I’ll join hands with you, to seize the two fruits containing the Origin of the sun and the moon. The one representing the sun is for you, and the other representing the moon is for me. Do you agree?”

Minghe heard that and replied through the sound transmission. “The fighting is extremely dangerous. We need to be alert to those cultivators and beasts at the peak of the Fate Realm. They may also target the two fruits, so we should not stand out. We’d better seize other fruits first, and then wait for opportunities to seize the two fruits.”

Upon hearing this, Hongjun nodded slightly. Obviously, he agreed with Minghe’s suggestion. If someone stood out, he could become a target for all. Until then, they would not succeed easily. However, when Hongjun agreed to Minghe’s plan, there was an imperceptible weird look in his eyes, which Minghe had never noticed.

Even if he noticed that, Minghe might not guess what Hongjun’s was thinking. Fortunately, Minghe was on his guard against Hongjun. Of course, Hongjun had his own ideas. So did Minghe. Despite the apparent willingness to cooperate, they respectively had their own plans.

Minghe stared at all Giant Beasts of Starry Sky and noticed their behaviors. As a few roars sounded, he said in a low voice, “They are coming.” Like an army, all beasts rushed at all the people, who were overshadowed by their huge bodies.

As the beasts moved, Minghe’s party was naturally reluctant to show weakness, displaying endless Taoist Laws and Magic Weapons. However, Minghe and Hongjun also refused to admit being inferior. A huge Blood Qi Palmprint and countless Divine Beings Thunder dropped from the sky to hit those Giant Beasts of Starry Sky. For a moment, the whole starry sky was permeated in a bloody atmosphere.

Not too far away, many cultivators, who were forced to retreat by the beasts’ momentums, could not help shivering at the sight of the scene. It was really a fighting filled with death. Their trust in luck had already disappeared in the smell of blood and sounds of roaring. Most people left by flying and diving down, because they were not able to withstand such a fight. Only a few people were not scared; instead, they were in high spirits. This was the difference between the strong and the weak.
