Chapter Twenty-Three: Vermilion Fruit
The woman in white has a tenth-level cultivation of Qi training, and the strength of the black-veined snake is comparable to that of a monk who cultivates the ninth layer of Qi, if the woman in white is not poisoned by this snake, there is no doubt that the winner is definitely the woman in white.

Jiu Tian frowned slightly, and after glancing at the black snake again, he continued to move towards the Tianyuan Forest in the original route.
However, just as Jiutian stepped into the pile of rubble where the black-veined snake was just now, suddenly, among the many rubble, a fruit tree about half a zhang tall exuding spiritual energy appeared in front of Jiutian's eyes.
The branches and foliage of that fruit tree were not dense, but the leaves were very broad, and there were three orange-yellow fruits growing on it, exuding an attractive luster, and from time to time a faint fragrance wafted from the fruit tree, which spread all around.
Vermilion!
Jiutian's heart unconsciously cried out.
This Zhu Huang Guo is an important elixir needed to refine Zhuji Dan, which only matures once in three hundred years and bears fruit once.
It is very rare in the periphery of this Tianyuan Forest, it is not that the periphery is not suitable for the growth of this fruit, the periphery of the Tianyuan Forest is less dangerous, if there is any rare elixir growing in this periphery, it will have been taken away by others a long time ago, which is also the reason why even low-level elixirs are rare in the periphery.
This can also explain why the black-veined snake appears on the periphery, it must be eyeing this vermilion fruit tree, coming here to guard, to prevent other demon beasts from bumping into it, if the black-veined snake has already swallowed all these three vermilion fruits into its abdomen, then the strength of the black-veined snake can almost compete with the monks in the foundation building period, then I am afraid that the black-veined snake is chasing the woman in white, not the woman in white chasing the black-striped snake.
Jiutian took a few steps forward, walked in front of the vermilion fruit tree, and took a closer look, the vermilion fruit was not yellow, which proved that the vermilion fruit was not fully ripe.
If the elixir is close to maturity, but it is not fully ripe, then go to pick it, and the effect of the picked elixir is only seven points of the effect of the mature elixir, which is probably the reason why the black snake did not swallow it in the stomach in the morning.
But at this time, even Jiutian began to hesitate, whether to pick these three Vermilion Fruits that were not fully ripe, these three Vermilion Fruits can bring too much effect on the current Nine Heavens, but if you pick off the medicinal effect, you have to lose three points, but if you don't pick it off, in this dangerous Tianyuan Forest, I am afraid that it will attract other demon beasts or monks to fight.
This is a question that makes Jiutian very entangled, because Jiutian judged according to what he had seen and heard in his previous life, this vermilion fruit can be fully ripe as long as it takes another day, and if he picks this fruit now, Jiutian.
A day's time, not long, not short, but enough to happen, if the woman in white just now, or the black-veined snake that was not killed by the woman in white, not to mention whether you can get Zhu Huangguo, whether you can save your life is still a problem.
In this way, Jiutian fell into a dilemma, although he was thinking, but Jiutian's vigilance was never slackened, his divine consciousness was released, and he was always feeling around, and if there was a slight abnormality, Jiutian could feel it for the first time.
It wasn't long before Jiutian finally made a decision, a very wise one.
Jiutian took a step forward, stretched out his hand, and touched the vermilion fruit on the tree, just about to pick it.
Sou!
A cyan blade of light burst through the air and slashed directly in the direction where Nine Heavens was.
Hearing the sound, Jiutian's eyes froze, and he just wanted to dodge.
However, the speed of the cyan light blade was like electricity, and it didn't give Jiutian any time to dodge, and directly slashed at a large gray-brown stone beside Jiutian.
Jiutian broke out in a cold sweat in his heart, when he saw the cyan light blade, he didn't have to guess, Jiutian knew that it must be the hand of the woman in white, but fortunately, the woman in white did not kill herself.
This couldn't help but make Jiutian breathe a sigh of relief, maybe she was looking at the same door, just wanted to scare herself, and in a blink of an eye, the big stone next to her was directly split into a deep crack, although the power was not as great as it started, but it was still not to be underestimated.
Stop it!
The weak soft voice of the woman in white came from behind, and Jiutian could hear a trace of trembling and weakness from the strange tone of the woman in white.
Hey!
Jiutian seemed to have guessed something, and Jiutian turned his head to look at it, wanting to confirm whether his conjecture was correct.
Sure enough, the woman in white turned pale, bent slightly, one hand was holding a thin sword that emitted a bright white light, while the other white jade hand was lying on her undulating chest, the pain on her face was self-evident, and she was walking slowly towards her.
Burst!
The woman in white suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood and dripped it on the ground, but it was a pool of black blood, and her trembling delicate body almost fell to the ground.
Sure enough, the guess is right, this woman in white must have been careless, she fell for the poison of the black-veined snake, as long as she was a little cautious, with the strength of the woman in white, she would never be poisoned by the black-veined snake, and the poison became like this, Jiutian saw the reason at a glance.
Forcibly enduring the pain, the woman in white untied the storage bag around her waist, took out a small jade porcelain bottle from it, uncorked the white porcelain bottle, poured out a black pill from it, raised her head and took it, then sat down cross-legged, glanced at Jiutian, and said coldly:
Protect the Dharma for me, and after I successfully force out the toxin with my spiritual power, this Zhu Huangguo will be divided into one for you!
After the woman in white finished speaking, she closed her eyes, not giving Jiutian the slightest room to choose and answer.
Jiu Tian shook his head, smiled bitterly, did not refute, stood quietly aside, glanced around, and after making sure that there was no movement around, he also sat on a stone, closed his eyes, and began to meditate and cultivate.
You see, isn't this the famous beauty of the Blue Moon Sect, Lin Yirou?
I really didn't expect to meet her in such a place!
Not long after Jiutian closed his eyes, he heard a very obscene sound ringing in his ears, Jiutian suddenly opened his eyes, and when he looked closely, he saw two men and a woman, and three monks walking out of the nearby woods.
At the front was a low, ugly-looking male monk, looking at Lin Yirou who was meditating with a lewd smile on his face.
Behind this person is a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance and a fairly tall figure, and at the back is a female cultivator with scantily clad clothes and a charming face, revealing a charm between her words and deeds.
The eyes of the two male cultivators had been staring at Lin Yirou who was meditating and cultivating, and they had never left, but the eyes of the enchanting female cultivator had been staring at her, and Jiutian could feel that kind of gaze was like a wolf and a tiger, just like looking at a prey.
