Chapter 1310: A Discerning Eye

The human piggy bank’s words gave An Lin a huge fright.

How could she sell insider information about the events? And how could he cook for Lin Junjun just so that he could obtain this insider information? This kind of deal would tarnish both his cooking and his integrity!

Lin Junjun immediately added upon seeing An Lin’s unconvinced expression, “The information I can provide you is insider information regarding the immortal-rank heavenly peaches that ripen once every millennium.”

“Alright, I’ll be glad to hear it.” An Lin nodded.

Lin Junjun extended two fingers. “Two Chef G.o.d dishes.”

An Lin: “Deal!”

Lin Junjun continued to transmit her voice, “The next event is going to be the discerning-eye activity. When the time comes, all of you will be teleported into an orchard, and your cultivation bases will be restricted to the tenth-stage Dao Body again. Among over a thousand fruit trees and over ten thousand fruits, you have to find the immortal-rank heavenly peaches, of which there are only ten…

“The heavenly peaches will transform into all different types of fruits, and even their appearances and auras will be different. Each of you can only take one fruit.”

An Lin’s expression s.h.i.+fted. “Both the appearances and auras will change? Isn’t that basically a lottery?”

“It really is. Otherwise, this would not be called the discerning-eye event. Even though the immortal-rank heavenly peaches will transform into other types of fruits, they will still be different from other fruits. The devil lies in the details…”

An Lin nodded. “Cut to the chase.”

“The important thing is that my father has selectively transformed the immortal-rank heavenly peaches based on a color scheme, which is the color scheme of myself and my sisters. You know what I mean, right…” Lin Junjun continued.

An Lin’s eyes lit up with excitement. “So you’re saying red, orange, yellow, green, aqua, blue, and purple? The immortal-rank heavenly peaches are all distributed among fruits of those colors?”

Lin Junjun nodded. “That’s right, and he loves me the most, so…”

An Lin nodded. “There will be more of them among the purple fruits?”

A gratified smile appeared on Lin Junjun’s face. “Smart!”

An Lin couldn’t help but look up at the buoyant Celestial Thearch on stage that was about to announce the rules.

He probably had no idea that the daughter he loved the most was engaging in this shady deal with him.

“To be honest, this information isn’t really worth two dishes…” An Lin spoke with a troubled expression.

Lin Junjun glared at An Lin and pouted. “What? You’ve heard the insider information, and now you want to go back on your word? That’s ten immortal fruits! I’ve already narrowed down your search area significantly, so what else could you want? Wouldn’t it be worth it if you recovered one or two of the immortal fruits?”

“It’s exactly because I can take all ten that I don’t think this deal is worth it…” An Lin spoke with a speechless expression.

“What?!” Lin Junjun’s eyes widened. “Ten? Are you daydreaming?!”

An Lin couldn’t be bothered to explain things to her. Did she really think his Divine Inspection Technique would be useless in an event like this?

However, the fact that his search range had been whittled down would save him quite a bit of trouble.

Hence, An Lin reluctantly accepted Lin Junjun’s deal.

On the stage.

The Celestial Thearch announced the second activity with a buoyant smile.

“The second activity is going to the most interesting activity and one that everyone can reap the most valuable rewards from. It’s called the discerning-eye activity!”

The Celestial Thearch then began to elaborate on the rules.

When all of the mighty figures heard that there were tens of thousands of precious fruits in the orchard, among which there were over a thousand spirit fruits and ten immortal fruits, all of their eyes lit up. To think that there was such a good place in the Heavenly Court!

However, all of them were a little disappointed upon learning the fact that each contestant could only take one fruit for themselves.

If one was to purely rely on luck, there was simply too small a probability of hitting the immortal-fruit jackpot. As such, they had to have some sort of way to discern the valuable fruits, hence the name of the game.

A spatial fluctuation swept forth, and all of the living beings were teleported to a place that was like an immortal paradise.

The scenery was gorgeous with all types of lush, vibrant flowers and exotic spirit beasts.

There was a huge orchard spread out before everyone. What was strange was that all of the trees had different types of fruits on them. In other words, there were over a thousand different types of fruits here.

“Wow… What a beautiful place! I feel so comfortable here!” As a fairy, Tina was quite intimate with nature, so she immediately developed a fondness for this place.

“Is this the Myriad Fruit Orchard of the Heavenly Court? This is indeed a fantastic place,” Xiao Tu also couldn’t help but deliver words of praise.

Not taking into account other matters, just the richness of vital energy here was something other immortal realms couldn’t contend with.

Not long after, the two thousand representatives had already sprung into action.

“Any of you who don’t have any particular discernment techniques or can’t be bothered looking, come with me. I want nine people,” An Lin instructed.

His goal was to get all ten immortal-rank heavenly peaches!

Su Qianyun had great self-awareness and joined him first.

The noob trio consisting of Tang Ximen, Xiao Hong, and Little Gu joined him next.

The fanatical followers, Ye Ling, Little Lang, Bryce, Xiao Ze, and Little Tian, made their way over to him after that.

There were exactly nine people.

The rest of them were all super confident in their discernment abilities.

An Lin had already relayed Lin Junjun’s information to them so that they could narrow their search range, but the rest would be up to them.

The ability to discern the immortal peaches was vital, but time was also of the essence.

If you had a discernment ability but you were too slow, the immortal peaches would be taken by others.

An Lin didn’t know what everyone else’s abilities were like, but he believed that his ability was quite fast.

He immediately made his way over to one tree, and a white light flashed through his eyes.

[Crimson Blood Fruit: A fruit born from the flame power of heaven and earth. Consumption can greatly a.s.sist cultivators when cultivating fire-type spell techniques. It is close to a spirit fruit.]

There were over sixty of those fruits on that one tree.

An Lin had to look through them one by one in case an immortal-rank heavenly peach lay among them.

Ten seconds later.

“Nothing here, let’s go to the next tree!” An Lin instructed.

Su Qianyun and the others didn’t know what was going on, but they still followed along nonetheless.

“Master is so awesome! You can tell if there are heavenly peaches hiding on that tree so quickly!” Ye Ling clapped her soft, tender hands together.

“Heh, you’re getting better at this flattery business.” An Lin couldn’t help but pinch Ye Ling’s little cheek with a gratified expression.

Elsewhere in the Myriad Fruit Orchard.

A projection of a yin-yang symbol swirled in Xuanyuan Lun’s eyes, and he quickly moved toward a certain tree.

It was as if he was looking at that tree, but also not looking at that tree. The branches and leaves swayed in the air, as if it were waving at him.

“Liu Changle, go pick that fruit.” Xuanyuan Lun suddenly instructed.

One of the people following him stepped forward with excitement. “Is that an immortal-rank heavenly peach?”

“No, it’s just a spirit fruit. Immortal fruits aren’t that easy to come by.” Xuanyuan Lun said with a warm smile, “Be happy with what you have. You may take this spirit fruit for yourself.”

Liu Changle was very grateful. “Thank you, Sect Leader!”

He did not doubt his sect leader’s discerning eye in the slightest.

In the air above the Myriad Fruit Orchard.

The five emperors were recording statistics at an extremely fast rate.

“The Coiled Dragon Royal Family’s first prince has already reached phenomenal success stage in his Golden Eye Divine Technique.”

“Xuanyuan Lun’s dao of Myriad Spirit Taichi can already communicate with all things in nature. Its true intent has improved significantly since a hundred years ago…”

“An Lin’s ability is a bit weird…”

The five emperors discussed among one another as they took notes.

The Heavenly Court had its own plans in mind.

If the battle for the heavenly peaches was to make the powers more “friendly” toward one another, then this discerning-eye activity was a chance for them to a.n.a.lyze everyone’s abilities!
