Chapter Twenty-Eight: Yuan Lingguo
Two hours later, Ji Ping felt that he had almost recovered, stood up, and saw that Panhu was torn off the hem of his shirt by Panxie, and wrapped Panhu's ass up, and asked Xiao Hei about how he killed the dragon, Ji Ping was secretly happy, so he ordered Xiao Hei to put away the dragon's corpse, and then let Panhu carry Panhu on his back, and the four of them walked in together.
It was almost close to the island, and there was no danger, but there were many precious herbs in the woods, which made Ji Ping and the four of them spend a long time picking them, and they were received into the ring by Xiao Hei.
All the way to the edge of the island, the four of them saw a pond of tens of square sizes, said to be a pond, in fact, it is still connected to the lake, look at the geographical location, the pond is in the center of the flow of nine rivers, the pond is full of all kinds of aquatic plants, Ji Ping and the strange fish they have eaten, in this pond and the nearby lakes are densely packed, some are slightly larger, up to several feet, smaller ones are only inches long, one by one swims around the pond comfortably, gnawing on aquatic plants, occasionally a few chasing and playing, Ji Ping They usually eat fish, it seems that they are all from here in the pastγ In the middle of the pond, there was a plant that looked like a water lily, but it was clearly not a water lily, because in it was exposed to the water five huge leaves, each several meters square, and the leaves were faintly vein-like like veins, flowing with milky white liquid, and in the center of these tendons, that is, the center of the leaf, grew a fist-sized yellow fruit, the surface of the fruit had white hairs, and there were five fruits in five leaves. Ji Ping was stunned when he saw this, thought for a moment, his eyes suddenly burst into green light, looked at the yellow fruit in the middle of the huge leaves, and muttered: "Little Black, Panhu, Rest, our grandfather has developed a few times, grandpa remembers reading some books before, the book records in detail the place of the Nine Dragons playing with pearls, is the place where the aura of heaven and earth gathers, often grow some strange plants, this water lily if I remember correctly, it should be called the spirit lotus, its leaves and tendons are flowing are the aura of heaven and earth, the fruit on it is called the Yuan Ling fruit, a result in ten thousand years, it is rumored that ordinary people can live forever when eaten, these fruits are estimated to be not ripe, the book records that the Yuan Ling fruit is cyan at the beginning, yellow when it is almost ripe, and it is milky white after it is fully ripe, and the Yuan Ling fruit is not edible until it is ripe, because the aura of heaven and earth has not been transformed at that time, which cannot be used by the human body. Judging by the color, these five fruits should be almost ripe. Grandpa estimated that the dragon was also living here for these fruits, haha, it's a pity that we were cheaper. These Gathering Spirit Lotus is the condensation of heaven and earth aura, no wonder there are so many fish here, and the fish meat also has the effect of improving the cultivation of internal qi, it is all heaven and earth aura. β
"Then grandpa, when will these fruits ripen?" asked Panhu.
"Oh, look at the surface of these fruits have white hairs, they should be about to ripen, when the specific time, grandpa doesn't know, after all, these fruits are 10,000 years from fruiting to ripening. Ji Ping smiled bitterly.
"These fruits must be delicious at first glance, but unfortunately they can't be eaten. Panhu slammed his mouth, his saliva was about to flow out.
As soon as the words landed, I saw that the water of the entire pond trembled slightly, and the white mist spread on the water surface, and the huge leaves of the Gathering Spirit Lotus emitted a dazzling white light, and the dense fog against it flashed with a white halo. The strange fish are crowded to gather towards the spirit lotus, including the fish in the distant lake, they are also scrambling to gather, only to see the fish on the water head to head, one by one open their mouths, greedily breathing the dense fog in the air, a dark cloud in the air suddenly appeared, the dark cloud is thick like ink, pitch black, towards the pond oppression, lightning shuttled in the dark clouds, like a shining scissors cut through the black curtain. The five Yuan Spirit Fruits are also undergoing drastic changes at this moment, the white hair on the fruit has disappeared, turning into a little milky white brilliance hovering around the fruit, the color of the fruit is gradually fading, and the yellow has turned into a pale yellow, looking carefully, the fruit is also greedily absorbing the milky white heaven and earth aura in the tendons of the Gathering Spirit Lotus.
The four of them stared at all these changes in amazement, I don't know why, is it that the fruit is about to ripen, this is too coincidental, the four of them stood by the pond in a daze, not daring to act rashly, the unknown thing is the most terrifying, wait and see what happens.
As the dark clouds get lower and lower, the white fog in the pond is getting thicker and thicker, rising higher and higher, reaching a hundred meters above the pond, the white brilliance is also getting stronger and stronger, gradually the dark clouds and the dense fog begin to contact, as soon as they come into contact, they see a strong lightning lit up, and the white brilliance below is entwined and circling, the tea kung fu, a deafening thunder sounded in mid-air, the dark clouds and the dense fog disappeared in an instant, more than a dozen drops of pale golden liquid in the air fell to the pond below, most of the liquid fell on the huge leaves of the spirit lotus, infiltrated into the tendons of the leaves, and flowed towards the fruit, only a few drops of liquid fell into the water of the pond, and the water of the entire pond changed, the pool water flashed with a faint golden light, and those crowded strange fish desperately swallowed the pool water one by one. In an instant, the pale golden glow of the pool water disappeared and returned to its original color. The pale golden liquid in the tendons of the Gathering Spirit Lotus also gathered into the five fruits, and suddenly, the five fruits were shining brightly, and the color of the fruits also changed from light gold to milky white, surrounded by a layer of white milky white brilliance, and a rich fragrance diffused up, and those strange fish rushed towards the Gathering Spirit Lotus at this time, but they were blocked by the huge leaves of the Gathering Spirit Lotus, and unwillingly surrounded the Gathering Spirit Lotus, looking at the milky white fruits. Ji Ping and the four of them woke up from their daze, and Xiao Hei asked, "Grandpa, is the fruit ripe now?"
"Yes, children, hurry up, the Yuan Spirit Fruit will automatically transform into Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and dissipate after a quarter of an hour of maturity, so we have to quickly pick and swallow it, remember! One person can only swallow one, and if there is more, the body will not be able to withstand so much Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, and it will explode and die." β
At that moment, Xiao Hei swept towards the pond, and when he reached the top of the Gathering Spirit Lotus, his body turned around, and he had already picked five fruits into the ring, and then his toes were a little on the Gathering Spirit Lotus, and he jumped back to the edge of the pond, took out the fruit and distributed it to the three people, and the four grandchildren hurriedly swallowed the fruit.
As soon as the fruit entered, Xiao Hei felt that the fruit turned into a cool air flow straight towards the dantian, and the internal qi of the dantian itself converged, and with a bang, Xiao Hei only felt that his dantian was like a firecracker, and the internal qi swelled violently, and then turned into a whirlwind, rotating wildly around the center of the dantian, and at the same time, the internal qi in the limbs of the body continued to come out from all corners of the body, joining the whirlwind of the dantian. Xiao Hei was frightened inexplicably, looked up at Ji Pingpanhu and them, and saw that he also had three red faces and a dignified and puzzled look, thinking that it should be a similar situation, and his body was not comfortable. So Xiao Hei didn't think about anything else, and sat cross-legged by the pond, guarding the dantian, silently feeling the situation in his body.
What can the Yuan Spirit Fruit born from the aura of heaven and earth bring to the four people?
