Chapter Twenty-Four: Blood Jade Fruit

Follow the traces left by the snake demon walking on the ground, all the way to the depths of the cave.

The area inside is even more expansive, and it is a natural karst cave.

The stalagmites hang upside down on it, and the ground is full of stubborn stones.

Although it is a cave of demon beasts, there is no peculiar smell.

Not only that, but there is also a refreshing smell.

Follow the taste, located in the deepest part of the cave on a flat land.

A strange tree about one meter high, with luxuriant branches, leaves like red jade, and white fruits on the top appear in sight.

"What is this?"

Seeing the fruit tree, Hou Jiuming couldn't wait to check it out.

The plants, leaves, and fruits are exactly the same as in memory.

"Blood Jade Fruit!"

Hou Jiuming was very surprised.

This fruit is recorded in the books, and the place where the fruit is born will be overflowing with blood and corpses all over the field.

It is extremely rare that there is no place for non-great evil.

But now, in a cave, there is this fruit growing.

And still so lush?

"Could it be that there was a battle here?"

"But how many people can die in a cave?"

With such doubts, Hou Jiuming took out his long knife and began to rummage on the ground.

However, rummaging around the fruit tree, not a single skeleton was found.

"What's going on?"

The absence of bones indicates that there were no large numbers of dead people in the area.

But it is really growing blood jade fruits.

"Is it too long for the bones to be dusted?"

Puzzled, Hou Jiuming had no way of knowing the reason why the blood jade fruit grew here.

I had no choice but to give up.

However, it doesn't matter if the cause is not the cause.

The important thing is the blood jade fruit.

This thing is in the mortal world, it is a legendary thing.

It is rumored that this fruit is against the sky, and taking one can give birth to divine power immediately, and it will not invade all diseases, and it is something that the emperor craves for.

Of course, this is just mundane.

With Hou Jiuming's current identity, he naturally understands.

It is a spiritual thing.

Born from the essence of heaven and earth, it can be used as medicine for alchemy, increase and cultivate, swallow raw, and also have miraculous effects.

"No wonder the snake demon became a demon, it turned out that there was this opportunity."

It takes 100 years for this tree to become a tree, and it bears fruit every 10 years, and only one can be produced at a time.

The color on the top is like white jade, and it obviously does not reach the red like smoke when it is ripe.

"Such a treasure tree, you can't let it stay here, in case it is devoured by some wild beast again, isn't it too late to regret it?"

Thinking of this, Hou Jiuming didn't care that the fruit tree was not yet ripe, and continued to take the long knife and began to dig.

In order not to hurt the roots, be very careful when digging.

It wasn't until half an hour that I dug to the bottom.

But at this time, the sound of metal clashing made him stop the knife in his hand.

Brush away the void with your hands.

A bone as bright as white jade was revealed.

"There are corpses, and they are not ordinary corpses!"

Ignoring the fruit trees, the long knife continued to dig, and after a while, a complete skeleton and some items were dug out.

A jade pendant, a broken cone, and some rotten clothing.

Except for the short cone, which has a little aura, everything else is mortal.

"Hey, it's a pity, I thought it was a chance?"

Shaking his head, he put away the cone, then dug up the fruit tree, and buried the remains and belongings back inside.

This corpse is definitely not the corpse that Baowa's father said, but it must also be an immortal cultivator.

Otherwise, the bones would not be so miraculous, there was no trace of flesh and blood, but they still exuded luminous light.

As for the corpse of the immortal cultivator mentioned by Baowa's father, it should have been devoured by the snake demon.

Immortal cultivators, even if they die, their flesh and blood also contain aura.

For demon beasts, it is like a great tonic elixir.

It's no wonder that such a thing is buried at the door of one's own house and not swallowed.

Knowing all this, Hou Jiuming felt disappointed.

This time, I was originally coming for the corpse of an immortal cultivator, thinking that I could get something to inherit.

Unexpectedly, except for a blood jade fruit, nothing was found.

"Forget it, I'm lucky to lose my life!"

Clearing the complicated emotions in his heart, Hou Jiuming searched carefully in the cave again.

After discovering that there was indeed nothing else, he left with the Blood Jade Fruit Tree on his shoulder.

…………

Return to the valley.

At this time, the serpent was completely dead.

It took half a day to remove the stones from its body and get the snake demon out.

At this time, the figure of the demon snake was significantly reduced.

The position of the eyes, the blood has also dried up and blackened.

The mouth became misaligned because of the boulder's compression, and one fang was exposed.

Other than that, it remains intact.

After all, the attack at that time was mainly aimed at the eyes and mouth.

He took out a versatile long knife and cut along the snake's head, cutting a wound deep into the flesh in the neck.

After that, he tried his best to peel off the snakeskin.

It's a good thing and certainly can't be thrown away.

After that, the snake demon was dismembered, the bones were dug up, the gall was extracted, and the snake demon was dismembered.

I thought it was a butcher's job, but I didn't expect to harvest something that made Hou Jiuming overjoyed.

When disemboweling, with unwillingness, cut open the stomach bag.

No, an ordinary big bag of slaps appeared in it.

As a demon, its digestive function is extremely powerful.

Even the bones of the immortal cultivators were nowhere to be found.

Not to mention an ordinary cloth bag.

Now it is unreasonable, it must not be a mortal thing.

Sure enough, after inputting the aura, the bag changed its appearance as if it had been brushed away from the mortal dust and seen the light of day again.

The ordinary gray cloth bag, under the blessing of the aura, emitted a luminous light, and a space of more than ten cubic meters appeared in the bag.

"Space Bag!"

Hou Jiuming was immediately ecstatic.

It was something he had always dreamed of.

Now, it is right in front of you, and it is still a relic of an immortal cultivator.

It's a big opportunity.

Can't wait to get the contents out.

Dozens of crystalline stones that exude a rich aura, three pills in white jade bottles, four palm-sized yellow papers painted with mysterious patterns,

In addition to this, there is a shield with a large face.

Each of these things exudes a strong aura.

Needless to say, it must be something used by immortal cultivators.

Among them was the yellow paper, which he had used on his way to the city of Solid Rock to meet the woman.

There is no doubt that it is a talisman.

As for what the charm is, it is unknown.

The three medicine bottles have no names, and it is not known what kind of medicine they contain for the time being.

The shield is easy to recognize, and it should be used for defense.

The last spar, looking at the aura full of energy, "Could it be a spirit stone that can be used for cultivation?" ”

There was a guess in my heart, and I tried to absorb the exercises.

Immediately, a rich aura poured into the meridians.

In just one week, all the mana consumed will be restored.

And the spirit stone was only consumed by about one percent.

"It's really a good thing, with it, you don't have to meditate slowly when you resume cultivation in the future!"

After a brief inspection of the harvest, Hou Jiuming tried the function of picking up and loading things again.

I played for a while before I was satisfied with pinning the space bag to my waist.
