Chapter 189 - 189: 175: Cultivating Longevity Fruit
And over the heads of these three hundred thousand mortals, there was an invisible barrier.
“The ‘Life-transmuting Great Array’…” Li Fan’s eyes narrowed slightly, feeling the traces of life that occasionally appeared in the air.
“Such pure life energy, no wonder it can form the life-enhancing ‘Longevity
Fruit’. ”
The pervasive life essence naturally came from the mortals living in Ningyuan City.
“If I remember correctly, in later times, the Protective Arrays of each base of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals had the function of extracting Mortal Essence to increase the concentration of Spiritual Energy.”
“But compared to the current ‘Life-transmuting Great Array’, it’s absolutely charitable. ”
Li Fan’s divine sense swept over the mortals in Ningyuan City and found very few elderly people in the city.
“The ‘Life-transmuting Great Array’ can absorb the life force of mortals. The lifespan of the mortals living in the array will also be drastically shortened.” “Often making it to forty or fifty years old is already their limit.”
“At this time, the Immortal-Ordinary Miasma did not exist. Mortals were nothing more than livestock in the eyes of cultivators, taken as needed.” Thoughts rushed through Li Fan’s mind, but he didn’t take any extra actions.
He followed Song Hesong to the center of Ningyuan City.
Here, the life energy became even more refined.
It even condensed into a faint green color , forming flowing tendrils that were slowly absorbed by a large tree growing here.
There were three heavy fruits hanging on the tree branches.
Their verdant and crystal-clear skin radiated fragrance, tempting people to salivate at the sight.
“Brother, this is the ‘Life-Extending Tree of Rebirth’.” Song Hesong took out a large seal and stamped it in front of the Life-Extending Tree of Rebirth. At the same time, he shouted, “Dismiss!”
There seemed to be an invisible barrier around the longevity tree.
The seal strongly collided with the barrier.
Dozens of beams of light gushed from the seal, then, like silver snakes, they swiftly swam around the barrier surrounding the Life-Extending Tree of Rebirth.
“Please help, brother!”
While Song Hesong was struggling to press and maintain the seal, he called out.
The veins on his forehead bulged, suggesting that he was straining. Seeing this, Li Fan didn’t hesitate. With a stretch of his hand, a purple seal emerged.
“Urgent!”
The purple seal marked itself on the invisible barrier.
Dazzling purple light snakes rushed out of the seal instantaneously.
The purple light snakes chased the previous silver snakes.
Each with its own target, they swallowed them one by one.
A short while later, when the silver light snakes were completely absorbed.
The purple light snakes emitted a faint luminescence.
Then they quickly spun around.
They formed the image of a purple thundercloud on the invisible barrier.
At this time, Li Fan produced a Violet Firmament True Thunder by practicing the Violet Firmament Thunder Secret Technique, exactly like his memory suggested.
Purple thunder pulsed.
The invisible barrier exploded open with a bang.
Li Fan activated the Thunder Secret Technique, using the Violet Firmament Spiritual Essence to protect his body, and boldly stepped into it.
Arriving under the Life-Extending Tree of Rebirth, he looked up at the longevity fruits that were exuding a tempting aroma.
“The quality of this batch is not bad.”
“A mere small Longevity Fruit can actually extend life by three hundred years.”
As he identified the Longevity Fruits using the method from his memory, Li Fan couldn’t help but be amazed.
“It is said that the best quality Longevity Fruits can extend life for over a thousand years.”
“Unfortunately, with the birth of the Immortal-Ordinary Miasma, this method of condensing Longevity Fruits seems to have become ineffective.”
“These Longevity Fruits, if they were in the later world, would certainly be priceless treasures.”
“I wonder, is there a way to bring these Longevity Fruits back to reality?”
As Li Fan thought, he slowly picked the three Longevity Fruits from the tree and put them into a specially made jade box.
“What to do next? Should I send these Longevity Fruits back to the sect? Or should I try one myself to see if they work?”
Li Fan was a bit hesitant for a moment.
According to Chen Ying, all the gains in the Fallen Immortal Realm only exist within the Fallen Immortal World.
To bring them back to reality, specific conditions need to be met.
But these conditions are different and need to be explored on your own.
Even the same object can elicit different conditions, depending upon the circumstances and timing of its encounter.
It seems that matters relating to these objects are dictated by causality.
Every time I arrive at the Fallen Immortal Realm, my location changes.
So if I miss this opportunity, it’s very likely I will miss it forever.
This caused Li Fan to waver between gaining and losing.
But before long, Li Fan returned to his normal state.
“The more valuable an item is, the more stringent the conditions to bring it out. How could it possibly be so easy for me to bring it back to reality?” After chuckled to himself, Li Fan made a decision.
“I should return to the Violet Firmament Sect first and see what opportunities await there.”
“I just don’t know if I’ll make it in time.”
At that moment, Li Fan left the protective barrier of the Life-Extending Tree of Rebirth, planning to call out to his senior brother Zhang and return to the Violet Firmament Sect.
“Boom!”
At that moment, a huge noise issued from within Ningyuan City.
Li Fan’s heart skipped a beat as he looked towards the direction of the sound.
“Chi Xia!” A pained cry from Zhang Qianmo echoed from a distance.
“You are asking for death! Do not think you can escape!” Accompanied by his angry voice, a swath of black light shot into the sky.
Immediately after, Zhang Qianmo transformed into a purple light and began to give chase relentlessly.
Li Fan instantly had a bad feeling and quickly followed.
And Song Hesong closely followed suit.
“Senior brother, keep your cool! Be careful, it’s a trap!” Li Fan transmitted his voice telepathically.
However, Zhang Qianmo was evidently consumed by anger and had lost his sense of reason.
He did not pay heed to Li Fan’s words of caution and continued to stubbornly chase that black light.
Once he reached high above the ground, the black light suddenly halted.
He looked at the fuming Zhang Qianmo below, a smirk of successful scheming on his face.
“fellow daoists, show yourselves!”
In an instant, three figures appeared next to the shadowy figure, forming a formation that encircled Zhang Qianmo, who had charged headfirst into the trap.
“Senior Brother Zhang! Long time no see! ”
The shadowy figure laughed heartily, his voice full of complacency.
Zhang Qianmo now realized he had been walked into a trap, his face turned somber.
“Senior Brother? Do I know you?” He squinted at the figure before him, confused.
“You…” The shadowy figure seemed to have received a massive insult and became inflamed.
You’re so arrogant just because you possess a Thunder Spirit Root!”
“Do you even remember Chu Liang, who entered the mountain gate with you and whom you insulted so badly afterwards!”
At these words, Zhang Qianmo seemed to recall something.
He staggered, exclaiming in disbelief, “You’re Chu Liang? That’s impossible!”
“You don’t have a spirit root, you can’t cultivate. Weren’t you expelled from the mountain? How did you become a Foundation Establishment cultivator?”
Chu Liang threw his head back and laughed, “No Spirit Root means, I can’t cultivate?”
“Indeed, it used to be like that!”
His face lifted with a fervor, “But now, the Immortal Reverend has divulged a new method, everyone can cultivate.”
“Moreover, our cultivation speed, is faster than you outdated people!”
“Despite being a powerful Thunder Spirit Root cultivator, having started cultivating more than ten years earlier than me, aren’t you still at the same level as me?”
Zhang Qianmo’s face revealed an incredulous expression.
“Everyone can cultivate? What nonsense!”
A sneer tugged at Chu Liang’s mouth, “Such a pity. Once you lose your claim to the cultivation talent that you’re so proud of, what do you really have left?”
He then gave Zhang Qianmo a merciless look, “In the past, I was kneeling at your door for three days and three nights, almost crippling my legs.” “I was begging you to let me stay on the mountain.” “Not only were you indifferent, but you also humiliated and insulted me.”
“Today, I will wash away the shame with your blood!”
“Fellow daoists, let’s do this together!”
