Chapter 261 - Dead Life Fruits
Qin Feng followed the little monkey into the depths of the mountains. What surprised him was the speed of the little monkey as it weaved through the thick foliage. If not for his movement skill, it would really be hard keeping up with the little monkey's speed.
Half an hour later, after crossing many a small stream and forest area, Qin Feng finally arrived at an odd-looking valley while following the little monkey. It was quiet inside the valley with a dark aura that was spreading out from the inner valley, making Qin Feng furrow his brows.
"Zhi Zhi Zhi!" As Qin Feng was seriously contemplating whether he wanted to enter the valley, the little monkey ran back out from within, squeaking at Qin Feng. Apparently, it wanted Qin Feng to follow it into the valley.
After a brief moment of consideration, Qin Feng lifted his foot and stepped into the valley, following behind the little guy. Entering the valley, a wave of thick demonic energy hit Qin Feng in the face that carried an unpleasant odor. Not far into the valley, there were large piles and even mountains of dead bones scattered everywhere, belonging to an era long gone.
As they moved deeper into the valley, more and more mountains of bones decorated the scene. Even with Qin Feng's experience in the Profound Spirit Continent that made his mind and will stronger than most martial warriors of the same age, he was unable to keep calm in this situation.
However, when Qin Feng was about to turn back and leave, he suddenly came to a large plain of green grass with exotic flowers' fragrances permeating the air. It was like a painted depiction had manifested into a reality. In the center of the plain, there was a path that went straight to an underground cave.
Qin Feng was dumbstruck when looking at the valley. Never would he have imagined the possibility of the front half of this valley being littered with dead bones, just like a scene from hell, while the other half was like a paradise.
At this moment, the little monkey went up to a mountain cliff, squeaking and gesturing towards Qin Feng while pointing to the top of the cliff. Qin Feng walked over and his eyes followed in the direction pointed by those tiny fingers.
Growing almost all the way at the top of the cliff on a short, thick, green vine were a few purple-colored fruits.
These purple-colored fruits made one who looked at it disoriented. Fragrance from the fruits wafted through the air. It was enough to mesmerize everyone that could smell it.
"This… Dead Life fruit?" Qin Feng was stunned when he saw the purple fruits and was greatly astounded.
According to the memories of his previous life, Qin Feng found out that the Dead Life Fruit was an extremely rare fruit even in the ancient era.
It can only grow at a place where both demonic energy and extremely pure spirit energy intertwin.
Thinking that half of this place was filled with demonic energy and countless skeletons while the other half was like a paradise, Qin Feng understood why this kind of rare spirit fruit could grow up at this place.
The Dead Life Fruit was a spirit fruit that could help a Pure Soul Realm martial warrior break through to the Great Soul Realm Martial Warrior and it might even let one breakthrough one more minor stage after the major breakthrough.
If Qin Feng could swallow this kind of fruit with his current cultivation base at the Middle Stage of Heaven Ascension Realm, who knows how much his strength could increase.
Qin Feng did not want to let this opportunity go. No matter what, he has to get all these fruits... Of course, he has to give the little monkey's share away.
But it was no problem. There were ten Dead Life Fruits and after giving five away, Qin Feng would still be left with three Dead Life Fruits.
A single Dead Life Fruit is enough to sky-rocket his cultivation base, what kind of stage his strength will reach after eating the five Dead Life Fruits!
Taking a deep breath, Qin Feng looked at the little monkey and showed the sign of gratefulness on his face. He was really grateful to the little monkey.
Not only did the little monkey bring him to the Sky Fruits, but it also brought him to the Dead Life Fruit Tree.
Qin Feng stared at several pieces of Dead Life Fruit. His eyes were aflame with desire. His throat convulsed nervously and then decided to take action.
Qin Feng surveyed the surroundings.
The cliff wall was smooth all the way up to the peak and it almost had no spots to firmly grab hold of. Picking the two hundred meters high fruits was no easy task for the little monkey. It was no wonder, though the little monkey knew there were so many Dead Life Fruits here, it was unable to take them.
With Qin Feng's current strength, it was extremely easy for him to fly and pluck out all the fruits.
Moments later, Qin Feng leaped up. Reaching to a height of about a hundred meters, his fingers bent into a claw shape and his fingertips sunk into the cliff wall. Taking the support of the cliff-wall, Qin Feng jumped above before using his leg to push up again and reach the Dead Life Fruit Tree.
Under the watchful eyes of the little monkey, Qin Feng's looked at the ten pieces of Dead Leaf Fruit in front of him. His eyes shined brightly as he carefully picked the Dead Life Fruits one by one before placing storing them into the spatial ring, then finally leaping off to the ground.
Qin Feng tapped his foot a few times against the cliff wall to reduce his landing speed while in mid-air on the way down.
Seeing him successfully pick the Dead Life Fruits, the little monkey started squeaking cheerfully, gesturing happily with his little paws.
After demonstrating its delight, the little monkey calmed down and started staring pitifully at the spatial ring in Qin Feng's index finger of the right hand.
"Little guy, catch!" Qin Feng could not help but laugh at the antics of the little monkey. Taking out five pieces of Dead Life Fruit from the spatial ring, he threw them over. The little monkey leaped up and caught the fruits. Giving Qin Feng a happy cry, the little monkey went to a corner and swallowed one of the fruits before sitting down to absorb the spiritual energy from the Yang fruits.
Without disturbing the little monkey, Qin Feng surveyed the surrounding valley and after determining that it was safe, he too sat down on the side and took out a piece of Dead Life Fruit, swallowed it, and started circulating the Second Layer of Nameless Cultivation Technique to absorb the fruit's energy.
When the energy from the Dead Life Fruit dispersed throughout Qin Feng's body, multiple strands of black and white energy almost instantly emerged.
Submerged inside the flow of the black and white energy, Qin Feng felt extremely comfortable and warm, as if he was soaking in a hot spring. The spirit energy inside his body flowed rapidly.
His strength also started increasing slowly. The Dead Life Fruit contains too much energy for Qin Feng to absorb immediately. He had to spend many days to successfully absorb the energy from the Dead Life Fruit.
After all, the Dead Life Fruit was extremely rare to come by and was for the Pure Soul realm martial warrior to swallow. Not only could a Pure Soul Realm martial warrior break past the barrier and advance to the Great Soul Realm, he or she could also advance one more minor stage.
However, Qin Feng was still in the middle stage of Heaven Ascension Realm martial warrior. There was still Dao Manifestation Realm and only after that was the Pure Soul Realm. Qin Feng still had a long way to go before he could reach the Pure Soul Realm.
But now, he actually swallowed a fruit that was meant for the Pure Soul Realm martial warrior. The energy in the fruit was beyond what Qin Feng could absorb with his current cultivation base.
But his body was tempered previously after he ate the Sky Fruit, causing his body to become many times stronger. And his foundation was also extremely strong.
This was only the reason why he was able to endure the overwhelming energy that was as violent as it could be. But the pain he was feeling made his face to twitch continuously.
Qin Feng knew he was wrong to swallow the Dead Life Fruit with his current strength. If not for the Late Stage of Pure Soul Realm, he should at least wait to advance to the Late Stage of Dao Manifestation Realm before swallowing the Dead Life Fruit.
This way, he was confident that he could successfully absorb all the energy within the fruit without enduring the pain or trying to suppress the overwhelmingly violent energy within his body.
