With just a simple touch, Chen Shaojun faintly felt some spiritual energy pouring into his body through the fruit's skin. In an instant, from his fingertips to his right arm, there were waves of clear and cold energy. In a trance, it seemed as if there was an infusion of power.
into the body.
Chen Shaojun actually felt that the internal energy in his body suddenly became much more active, and his strength even increased slightly.
"This... is such a powerful effect, it is many times more powerful than the effect of the strange fruit used by the barbarians to pay tribute to the barbarian gods!"
Chen Shaojun's whole body was filled with excitement and he was greatly surprised.
"Crack!"
It was too late to say it, but it was too soon. Suddenly, a clear and crisp sound came from his ears, pulling Chen Shaojun back from his mind.
I saw the little snail jumped down from the tree trunk at some point, hugged the fruit, and took a hard bite. The result was an ouch, and he screamed as if he had kicked an iron plate.
"Xiaowo, what are you doing?"
Chen Shaojun was startled.
"Of course I eat it. Do you think I can't see that this is a good thing? Ouch, my teeth... why are they so hard!"
As Xiaowo said this, she covered her mouth and felt pain.
Chen Shaojun originally had a serious face, but when he saw Xiaoshuai's deflated look, he couldn't help but laugh:
"It's been so long, and you still haven't felt it? The animals and plants in this barbaric continent, including the barbarians, all have hard skins. It's not too much to say that they are steel. This kind of thing is only suitable for absorbing the essence core inside.
Qi, as for its fruits and trunks, don’t move. Didn’t you see that when I absorbed the fruits before, I only absorbed spiritual energy? If you bite them with your mouth, it’s pretty good if they don’t dislocate.”
"Tch! I didn't tell you earlier."
Xiaowo glanced sideways, feeling annoyed.
Chen Shaojun smiled secretly in his heart.
"Don't worry, as long as there is a chance, I will find a way for you to absorb some spiritual energy and improve your strength. But now is not the right time. Haven't you seen it? This fruit is silver and green, and it is not yet mature.
At least this fruit is not ripe yet. If you pick it now, its effectiveness will be greatly reduced, which is a waste."
"What? Not yet cooked?"
Xiaowo was startled when he heard this, and jumped onto the fruit again to look at it carefully.
Although this holy tree fruit looks crystal clear and beautiful, if you look closely, you will see that deep in its core there are green halos, which looks so disharmonious.
"Did you see the golden runes on the surface of the fruit? If I'm not wrong, the conditions for this kind of fruit to mature are very demanding. What they absorb is not just the nutrition of the holy tree, but the high-level time and space energy between heaven and earth.
The rules and laws of heaven and earth cannot mature until the time comes. This fruit is too precious and cannot be forced."
Chen Shaojun paused and then said:
"Let's look at other ones. I remember that I saw it with the Eye of Insight before. There should be more than this fruit on the holy tree. Let's see if there are any other mature ones."
As Chen Shaojun spoke, he lightly swung his body and headed towards other higher places. At the same time, Chen Shaojun also activated the power of the Huntian Treasure Mirror of the sacred tree in his mind, quickly sensing the location of the fruits, and searching for them according to the map.
It is much faster and more efficient than searching blindly.
In an area of only a few feet, at a higher place, Chen Shaojun found the second fruit of the holy tree.
This fruit was larger, rounder, and heavier than the previous fruit, and the aura and power of rules contained in it were also stronger. However, Chen Shaojun just took a look at it and shook his head slightly.
"Still not cooked yet."
Like the previous fruit, the core of this holy tree fruit also revealed a strong cyan halo, and there must be a trace of chaotic power inside.
One thing Chen Shaojun didn't tell Xiaowo was that the green color in the fruits of these holy trees was not simply immature, but contained a hint of chaotic power.
This kind of power is a big taboo for warriors. If it is absorbed into the body rashly, the true energy may be diverted or conflict with each other. It may suddenly go crazy, or even go berserk, and it is possible to be severely injured.
"I remember that when I was in the wizard's hall, I seemed to have heard the senior wizard say that all fruits are not yet ripe..."
Suddenly, Chen Shaojun's heart moved, and he vaguely remembered something, but only for a moment, Chen Shaojun suppressed the thoughts in his heart.
Nothing is absolute. Instead of listening to what they say, it is better to see for yourself, especially since no one from the barbarian side has discovered it yet.
Phew, Chen Shaojun jumped up and continued to go up.
The crown part of the barbarian holy tree is much larger than expected, but Chen Shaojun is not too surprised. The crown part of the tree is much larger than the trunk part, dozens of times, or even nearly a hundred times is normal.
Moreover, this barbarian holy tree has existed for thousands of years. It has grown over the years, and its branches have penetrated into the depths of time and space. It is completely different from ordinary trees.
As he continued to move forward, Chen Shaojun saw more and more fruits of the holy tree.
Each of these holy tree fruits contains rich physical energy, which is completely different from the wild and exotic fruits that Chen Shaojun absorbed before.
"Why aren't there any ripe fruits? We took such a big risk, isn't it in vain?"
After searching for more than twenty holy tree fruits along the way, all of them were unripe, and Xiaowo finally couldn't help but complain.
Chen Shaojun also frowned and said nothing, but compared to Xiaowo, he was obviously more calm.
"Don't panic, I remember the senior wizard said that now is the period when the sacred tree bears fruit once in a hundred years. Even if it is not mature now, I'm afraid it's not far away."
Chen Shaojun said thoughtfully.
"ah?!"
Xiaowei was stunned.
"I have a feeling that this sacrifice of the barbarians should be very special. Otherwise, it would not be possible to attract so many masters from various dynasties and empires. Also, have you forgotten the essence and blood of Xingtian?"
Chen Shaojun said.
"Ah? Boy, you'd better tell me directly. You know that thinking is not what I'm good at."
Small wormhole.
"This is just my feeling. Although I don't know the specific details yet, the conditions for the appearance of Xingtian's essence and blood should be very stringent. It is not something that can appear normally, nor can it be obtained easily. Otherwise, Master...,
It’s not our turn either.”
"The essence and blood of Xingtian, plus the sacrifice of the Barbarian God... all appeared in the same period. Maybe there is an element of coincidence in it, but I have never believed in coincidence."
Chen Shaojun said in a deep voice, his sharp eyes seemed to have penetrated deeper into the whole matter.
Take one step, look forward to three steps!
This is Chen Shaojun's personal habit. When everyone is attracted by the Barbarian God Sacrifice, what Chen Shaojun is thinking is far more profound than everyone else.
"Ah? Isn't Xingtian's matter not big enough? That's the Demon God! And I feel that there are still many people who don't know about Xingtian's existence. Could there be something bigger?"
Xiaowu also reacted at this time, opened his eyes wide and said.
"I don't know either."
Chen Shaojun shook his head, always feeling that this timing was too sensitive and would never be as simple as it seemed:
"But no matter what, our current situation is dangerous enough. No matter how dangerous it is, it won't be much more dangerous. But I'm afraid we need to be more careful in our future actions. We should take one step at a time and leave immediately if the situation is not right."
Chen Shaojun said.
"Um."
Xiaowo nodded, she still believed in Chen Shaojun very much. The repeated dangers made the two of them have an extremely terrible intuition about death and danger, and they were almost to the point of predicting the future.
Chen Shaojun suppressed his thoughts and continued to move forward. Although most of the holy tree fruits in the silver leaves were not ripe along the way, Chen Shaojun also gradually discovered some patterns. All these holy tree fruits seemed to be similar, but as time went by,
As the height increases, it seems that the higher you go, the bigger these fruits become, and at the same time, the energy contained in them becomes more and more massive.
"This is different from ordinary trees. The nutrition of ordinary trees comes from the roots, so the fruits closer to the roots are relatively larger and smaller at the top. But this barbarian holy tree can draw from the endless void.
High-level cosmic energy deep in space and time, so the higher you go, the bigger the fruit and the more powerful the energy."
Chen Shaojun said secretly in his heart.
Although there was not much harvest along the way, Chen Shaojun always still had a glimmer of hope in his heart. With so many fruits, as long as there are one or two mature ones, it is already a huge harvest, at least he is not empty-handed.
And back.
All the way up, the fruits of these sacred trees also confirmed Chen Shaojun's guess and judgment. The higher the fruit goes, the higher the energy and level are.
"No way, why aren't there any ripe fruits?"
I don't know how long it took, but Xiaowo also noticed something strange.
Along the way, the two of them have seen at least thirty or forty huge holy tree fruits. Although each of these fruits has amazing energy, none of them are mature, and they have almost reached the end of the holy tree.
.
Chen Shaojun on the side did not speak, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Rumble, boom, sooner than later, just when Chen Shaojun was still thinking, a deafening thunder suddenly came from above his head.
"What's this?"
Xiaowo raised her head, looking surprised, and looked subconsciously.
This was the first time they heard the sound of thunder since entering this space.
Almost at the same time, Chen Shaojun also looked up. Just above their heads, a thick black mist turned into a vast ocean and spread out above their heads.
Even now, Chen Shaojun has not understood the true mystery of this black mist. However, before Chen Shaojun can check it clearly, the next moment, something strange happened——
"careful!"
Chen Shaojun's expression changed and he shouted quickly.
