Volume 1 The Scourge of Ascension Chapter 28 Earth Spirit Fruit

Two days later, there was a mountain range near the Western Regions, which was formed by the topography of the city, with dozens of towering and upright snow-capped peaks. The snow here does not melt all year round, the earth is covered in silver and the sky is covered with heavy snow, and a silvery white color refracts the light between heaven and earth, which makes people quite uncomfortable when they first arrive here. On the top of one of the mountains, Gu Cheng took Cheng Hao to the top of the peak cliff.

"This is the Earth Spirit Fruit?"

Looking at the plant in front of him, Cheng Hao asked. This is a plant about half a person tall rooted in the cold ice, the brown trunk is about the thickness of a thumb, there are seven branches, each with a small leaf, the thin branches are hung with dense fruits, under the number of exactly thirty-six, one is red, and the remaining thirty-five are pale cyan, which is exactly the same as the record in the ancient book that Ying Tianxing originally held.

"Exactly, there are a total of thirty-six earth spirit fruits growing at the same time, and they have grown up in forty years, and the red one absorbs the most nutrients, and it is the main fruit, which has a huge effect on the martial artist. The remaining thirty-five are all auxiliary fruits, and they have little effect on martial artists who have already established the foundation of martial arts. ”

Gu Cheng explained with a wry smile that the Earth Spirit Fruit at this time was obviously ripe, and this should have been an opportunity that belonged to their Gu family, but it fell into the hands of others because of his selfish revenge, and now no matter how much he regretted it, it would be useless.

"Hmph! For the sake of the Earth Spirit Fruit, the matter between you and me has been written off. Cheng Hao snorted coldly, since he had already obtained the Earth Spirit Fruit, he didn't want to go to the Gu family for trouble. "But from now on, your Gu family must not step into Qingzhou City for half a step, otherwise you will bear the consequences!" Go back!" Although he is the ultimate victor, the Gu family has also lost Gu Xiantian, the only strong man, but after all, it was Gu Cheng who calculated him first, and Cheng Hao would certainly not let him go easily.

"Thank you seniors for letting go of the Gu family, Gu Cheng said goodbye. ”

Arching his hand at Cheng Hao, Gu Cheng jumped off the cliff and went all the way back. He never thought that Cheng Hao would let go of the Gu family like this, although the head of the family, Gu Xiantian, now does not know whether he is alive or dead, even if he can survive, he may not be able to protect his cultivation.

Without the Gu family, which is no master of transformation, can only be reduced to a second-rate family, but as long as the foundation is still there, there is hope for a new rise. Thinking of this, Gu Cheng was a little grateful to Cheng Hao. He has always known very well that all this is self-inflicted, and Cheng Hao can let go of the Gu family is already an extrajudicial favor.

Ignoring Gu Cheng's departure, Cheng Hao stared at the Earth Spirit Fruit in front of him with burning eyes, not knowing how far he could raise his physical body. Moreover, from the very beginning, whether it was the Gu family or Ouyang Xu, they had only been talking about the Earth Spirit Fruit, but no one had ever mentioned the Seven Star Grass. I don't know if I was attracted by the Earth Spirit Fruit and ignored it, or if I really didn't know anything about the Seven Star Grass.

You must know that although this Seven Star Grass does not have the ability to break through the realm like the Earth Spirit Fruit, its effect on strengthening the body of a martial artist is not as bad as the Earth Spirit Fruit itself. If you don't understand, leave him alone for now.

Gently plucking and putting away all the earth spirit fruits, Cheng Hao sat down cross-legged directly, his hands on the surface covered by the rhizomes of the star grass, and the true qi was slowly injected into it. The plant slowly dissolved visibly with the naked eye, turning into a transparent viscous substance that Cheng Hao put into the jade box prepared in advance. This refining method was seen from that ancient book before coming here, which also confirmed the authenticity of the Seven Star Grass.

"You have to find a place to refine it first, otherwise the Seven Star Grass will be useless. ”

With that, Cheng Hao flew towards the higher snow peak, and the ability of the Transforming Martial Artist to fly for a short time was enough to leap over such a mountain peak that was not far away. Finding a relatively hidden valley, Cheng Hao opened the jade box, and the viscous matter inside had begun to slowly liquefy. According to records, once the Seven Star Grass bears the Earth Spirit Fruit, it will slowly wither within a year, and the refined Seven Star Grass will gradually turn into clear water if it is not used in time, and then volatilize until it dissipates between heaven and earth.

Remove the clothes on your body, and after refining the Seven Star Grass, you should not take it orally, but apply it to your body, and run the exercises to let your body absorb it slowly. In a matter of moments, all the liquid was gone. When Cheng Hao started to run the exercises, the liquid no longer showed signs of volatilization, and it was slowly absorbed along the pores. A pain that penetrated deep into the bone marrow suddenly spread to Cheng Hao's whole body, making him almost faint, you must know that with his current cultivation, the pain that can make him unbearable can be seen how strong it is.

This refining was a full three days and three nights, at this time Cheng Hao closed his eyes tightly, his hands were clenched into fists, his nails had been deeply inserted into his palms, and blood was dripping down his fingers. I don't know how many times during this period, Cheng Hao couldn't help but want to get up and struggle to relieve the pain, but he was forcibly suppressed.

Until this moment, the liquid on the surface of the body was finally refined. At this time, Cheng Hao's whole body was as clear as beautiful jade, and when he stood up, many of the black impurities discharged from his body seemed to be unable to stay on his body and slowly fell on the place where he meditated before. The flesh has also become tighter, but there are no obvious concave and convex muscles, which appear very symmetrical, and the bone meridians also seem to be reborn.

"Ahh

The feeling of being reborn made Cheng Hao can't help but let out a long howl. A loud sound echoed through the valley for a long time, and the shout suddenly triggered the inevitable consequences.

"Boom..."

Not far ahead, the steep mountain rocks towered in the distant sky, milky white clouds floated at its feet, deep canyons poured endless mountains and rivers, and the majestic mountains were covered with snow that had accumulated for thousands of years. A roaring whirlwind darkened the sky, and a huge avalanche shook the earth as if it were about to swallow the whole world.

It's a breathtaking beauty, but no one wants to experience it. Ordinary people seem to be destroying the scene, but in Cheng Hao's eyes, they are not afraid, and they are motionless.

When the avalanche descended in front of him, Cheng Hao opened his arms to meet the huge impact that roared, as if the collapsed mountain was pouring down, and the wind, ice, and boulders continued to impact. He didn't let all the incoming objects hit his body, and it didn't take long for the surrounding snow-capped mountains to trigger a chain reaction at the same time, and heavy snow fell towards the valley in all directions... The devastating avalanche lasted for two days.

"Drink!" When the avalanche completely stopped, Cheng Hao let out a loud shout, jumped high from the bottom and landed on a rock. Resisting an avalanche of this magnitude, any martial artist can do it, but it is innately impossible to say that it can be easily achieved by relying on the physical body, and it seems that the Seven Star Grass really deserves its reputation. Brushing the snow off his body, the excitement was palpable.

"It's not good, Earth Spirit Fruit!"

Before, he only cared about sealing the strength of his body, but he forgot that his clothes and belongings were still underneath. As a last resort, Cheng Hao had to continue to look for the depths below, but fortunately, he remembered the approximate location and found it in a short time.

The refining of the Earth Spirit Fruit may take longer than the Seven Star Grass, and he has not eaten for five days, even the strong ones can't bear it, and Cheng Hao is already hungry at this time.

"No, we have to find something to eat first!"

With that, Cheng Hao left. The area of this snow-capped mountain is too large, and there has been a violent avalanche before, and it is impossible to find prey, so you can only look elsewhere.

It takes about half a day to go back, and with Cheng Hao's foot strength, he has now left the snow mountain hundreds of miles away. It was noon, and Cheng Hao came to the edge of a huge lake, wanting to catch a few fish to satisfy his hunger.

Suddenly, a huge wave rolled up on the surface of the lake, and a huge figure appeared, staring at Cheng Hao from afar. The beetle-like body glows blue on its tail and still shines in the daytime. Then, I saw it grab a big fish and rush to the shore of the lake like lightning. threw the big fish at Cheng Hao's feet, and then flew high and stopped not far away, as if observing Cheng Hao's every move.

"What is this? Fireflies?"

Cheng Hao was taken aback by his own thoughts, how could there be such a big firefly in the world? But the monster in front of him was clearly a huge firefly. After observing it with spiritual perception, I found that this thing's qi and blood were very powerful, and it was much better than the innate powerhouses I had seen, such as Nangong Que Zhao Wouji. The figure hovering at a high place kept staring at him, making Cheng Hao feel his scalp tingle.

"This is for me?"

The monster had been staring at him before, and he caught the fish and threw it in front of him, as if it was very spiritual. Cheng Hao had no choice but to try to communicate with him and see how it would react.

As soon as the words fell, the monster flew down, frightening Cheng Hao and hurriedly retreated. If it weren't for the fact that the other party was too strong and too fast, Cheng Hao was afraid that he wouldn't be able to escape, otherwise he would have fled a long time ago. But the monster just turned the big fish over, stopped next to it and still stared at Cheng Hao motionless. At this time, Cheng Hao couldn't be afraid, he would definitely not be able to run anyway, and slowly approached the monster. When the monster saw Cheng Hao approaching, it retreated by itself, its wings under its carapace stretched slightly, as if it was a little scared.

It kept looking at Cheng Hao, and Cheng Hao also began to look at it carefully, and the dark jade-like eyes rarely revealed a strange meaning: Fear? That's right, it's fear. Cheng Hao couldn't believe that this monster with only innate peak strength would be afraid of himself as a martial artist. In order to verify what he thought, Cheng Hao ran forward a few steps quickly, but now the position between the two is reversed, as long as Cheng Hao gets a little closer, the monster will immediately dodge.

"What are you?" Cheng Hao said to the monster, as if he felt that it was a little inappropriate to ask this question, and changed his words, "What's your name?" It's just that the monster tilted its head slightly, as if thinking, and then turned its head and stretched out its wings to fan, circling around Cheng Hao all the time.

couldn't understand what it was trying to express, so Cheng Hao had to give up and continue to communicate with it, found some wood to make a fire, and grilled fish next to it. Cheng Hao, who has lived in a mountain village since he was a child, is also good at grilling fish, and after a while, the big fish was cooked, and the aroma wafted out.

"It's a pity that there is no seasoning, whatever, just fill his stomach. After speaking, Cheng Hao gently tore open a piece of fish meat and sent it to his mouth, he was really hungry. As soon as the fish meat entered his mouth, there seemed to be a burst of aroma, which made him can't help but close his eyes and revel in it.

Suddenly, the wooden stick with the big fish in his hand seemed to be pulled by something, and Cheng Hao immediately opened his eyes. I saw that the monster grabbed the wooden stick with its forelegs, and its head had already turned over and took the body of the fish in its mouth. It's just that that guy's strength is too great, and Cheng Hao can't grab it. As soon as the stick in his hand was sent away, the effect of inertia made it roll backwards, and the monster didn't care, so it had to eat the fish with its eight claws facing the sky.

"Haha..."

This contrast made Cheng Hao couldn't help laughing, who could have imagined that a monster that was almost close to the strength of the innate peak would go to such great lengths to eat a bite of grilled fish.
