Everlasting Chapter 481: Finding The Spiritual Trees (1/2)

“Spiritual fruit tree!” Chen Feng and Bai Yunyan's eyes lit up. Regardless if there were dangers involved or not, this was a tempting item for them. Additionally, they also had one similar thought. If even Liu Shaolong could obtain it, then they too, would surely be able to obtain it.

“Yes. The place is over 500 kilometres away from here. However, the yao beasts there are very powerful. We should plan this carefully,” Liu Shaolong said.

“500 kilometres. It is not too far away from here. In the outside world, we can get there in less than one joss stick's worth of time,” Chen Feng said.

“Yes. Truth be told, in the outside world, the Great Yaos there would not be particularly dangerous. However, this place is suppressing our cultivation bases. Thus, those Great Yaos could prove somewhat dangerous,” Liu Shaolong said.

“What type of Great Yaos are they? Their attacks, defences, speed, attribute?” asked Bai Yunyan after a moment's consideration.

“It is a group of ape yaos. There are at least 50 of them. Almost all of them have overcome 3 Lightning Tribulations or more. Their speed is very fast and they possess both a very high defensive and offensive power. However, there is one thing to note. These yao beasts would only stand guard around the spiritual fruit trees. They will not move too far away from the trees, otherwise I would not have been able to escape,” Liu Shaolong said.

The three of them discussed the matter as they moved forward. It did not take long for them to see some small valleys within winding and rolling range of mountains. The height of each mountain did not exceed 100 zhang. Even from afar, the three of them could see the gra.s.ses growing upon the valley. At the same time, they could sense that the surrounding spiritual energy was growing thicker.

“There really are spiritual trees there,” Chen Feng said.

“How is it? I didn't lie to you fellows, right? This time, by working together, the three of us will be able to obtain a few more of them. Let me tell you, the fruits produced by the trees can do more than just increase one's cultivation bases. There are other functions as well.” Liu Shaolong smiled as he brought out two fruits, which he tossed over to Chen Feng and Bai Yunyan.

The fruit felt heavy, several times heavier compared to ordinary fruits picked from the wild. For Chen Feng, it felt as though someone had placed a block of iron on his hand. Biting into the fruit caused fragrance to fill his mouth. When the fruit made contact with the interior of his mouth, it seemingly melted. Additionally, a faint medicinal scent could be felt from the resulting fruit juice. After entering his stomach, it then transformed into strands of cooling energy, which flowed throughout his body. Despite not deliberately channelling his cultivation technique, his body would automatically absorb all of the energy strands.

“It contains the attributes of wood and water. If I can eat fruits like these every day, my rate of cultivation will rise to a higher level,” Chen Feng said.

“I believe there is more than just this one type of spiritual tree here, right?” Bai Yunyan said.

“Naturally. This spiritual tree I obtained was located at the outermost area. The fruits it produces contain the attribute of wood and water, but farther inside are spiritual trees with other attributes. From afar, I could see Fire Dates, Fire Pears and b.l.o.o.d.y Dragon Fruits,” Liu Shaolong said.

Hearing Liu Shaolong's words, Chen Feng and Bai Yunyan's eyes shone. They had heard of the spiritual fruits before. They were all objects that cultivators would fight over.

“Why else would I be so enthusiastic about teaming up with you fellows? The spiritual trees here are simply too attractive,” Liu Shaolong lamented.

Chen Feng understood how Liu Shaolong was feeling. With enough strength, no one would be willing to share the spiritual trees here with others.

“However, I think things will not go smoothly for us,” Chen Feng suddenly said.

“Why do you say that? Are the pursuers from Nine Firmaments Palace here already?” Liu Shaolong's face sank as he asked.

“Someone arrived before us,” Bai Yunyan said solemnly.

Chen Feng was surprised. He was borrowing the Longevity Tower's power. Thus, his scanning ability was not something that the average cultivator could match. Liu Shaolong had failed to notice anything amiss, but this Bai Yunyan was actually able to sense it. This came as a surprise to Chen Feng. He thought to himself. This woman is definitely not to be underestimated.

“He he! This is thanks to the cultivation technique that I am practicing. Unexpectedly, Junior Brother Chen could possess such a powerful soul power despite not having overcome your Lightning Tribulation. After you overcome your Lightning Tribulation, won't you be strong enough to sweep cultivators like us aside?” Bai Yunyan said smilingly.

Liu Shaolong cast a bewildered look at Chen Feng. He had never seen a monstrous character like Chen Feng before. Even when compared to the few geniuses amongst geniuses within his sect, Chen Feng was superior by a certain degree.

However, after thinking about how Chen Feng possessed a top-grade Prized artefact, perhaps even a Sacred artefact, the feelings of envy within Liu Shaolong slowly subsided.

He is just borrowing the power of his magic treasure. If I possess a Sacred artefact, I too can kill opponents that are at a higher level. Having thought of that, Liu Shaolong finally recollected himself.

“Looks like we'll have to modify our plan. Let's go see who those fellows are first,” Chen Feng said in a hushed tone.

“Yes. If they are weaker than us, we can just kill them,” Liu Shaolong said icily.

“Hopefully, they are not from Jade Talisman Sect or Flowing Cloud Hall,” Chen Feng said smilingly.

“Also, hopefully not from Extreme Celestial Sect,” Bai Yunyan said with a smile of her own.

Liu Shaolong flicked his fingers and two talismans flew out to stick upon Chen Feng and Bai Yunyan's bodies. Immediately, their figures disappeared. Not a strand of their auras was exposed.

“Jade Talisman Sect's rune techniques are truly extraordinary. This is much stronger than the Invisibility Talismans that I bought.” Chen Feng's voice rang out from the void.

“Naturally.” Liu Shaolong smiled proudly as his figure, too, slowly disappeared into the void.
