Chapter 36 Ch 36: Million Star Heart Fruits
Unknown to the watchful eyes of three extraordinary people, Ye Xiao was waiting for the two girls to wake up.
Fifteen minutes later, Ning Xiang was the first one to wake up. Her head was dizzy at first, but she soon recovered and remembered what happened before. When she observed her body to look for any injury, she was shocked to discover no injuries on her body. At the same time, her clothes were tattered for some reason, revealing many parts of her smooth white skin.
She realized something and hurriedly looked around, only to see Qin Xiaoling still unconscious and Ye Xiao sitting cross-legged not far away with his eyes closed.
"Wh-What happened?"
As far as she could remember, she clearly felt a tremendous force slamming on her body. She still remembered something entering her body in the form of liquid from the green net that caused her terrible pain. If not for the fact that she fainted, she would have gone crazy because of the pain.
But now, other than her a few shapeless holes in her clothes, everything was alright. There were no injuries at all.
"Oh... You woke up. That's great!" Ye Xiao opened his eyes when he heard Ning Xiang's voice and smiled at her. Then he again said: "You were poisoned. I removed the green net as well as the poison from your body. Everything is fine now."
Ning Xiang raised her brows and looked at Ye Xiao with an astonished gaze. She blinked a few times, revealing her surprise., and muttered: "So, you were the one to save me!"
Then she took a deep breath and thanked Ye Xiao before shifting her attention to Qin Xiaoling.
It was at this time, Qin Xiaoling, who had been in a coma all this time, also faintly woke up.
"Why am I here?"
Qin Xiaoling came to Ye Xiao and Ning Xiang's side after waking up and asked while swaying left and right.
"You were kidnapped by the worm here. The worm has been killed by the two of us. Naturally, you will be here."
Ye Xiao said with a faint smile on his face.
"I see. Thank you, Ye Xiao, Senior Sister, for saving us." Qin Xiaoling smiled sweetly at Ye Xiao and said.
"Junior Sister, what do you think is there?"
Almost at the same time, Ning Xiang pointed towards the two paths not far away and said. She had noticed these two paths after waking up when she observed the surroundings. Now that Qin Xiaoling has woken up, she decided to go there and ask.
"Let's go there and see!"
The three of them nodded and immediately made their way to one of the two paths.
Ye Xiao pretended to be ignorant and followed them behind silently.
The three of them entered the first path and soon arrived in front of the blue lake.
Ning Xiang and Qin Xiaoling's attention was immediately attracted by the lake.
Seeing that they have paid no attention to the walls, Ye Xiao said: "There are words written on the wall. What is that language? Do any of you recognize what is written there?"
Ye Xiao's voice caused the two girls to focus on the wall, only to be deeply attracted by the words written on the wall. They seemed to be able to understand these words. The more they read those words, the more shocked expression they revealed.
Ye Xiao has no idea what was written on the walls, but he knew there must be something very shocking. The shocked expression on the two girls' faces made Ye Xiao curious about the words written on the wall.
After five minutes, the two girls finally shifted their attention to the Lake. The way they looked at the Dark Blue Lake caused Ye Xiao to shiver.
It is because, these two girls who only wanted to obtain a treasure called Initial Will Crystal and leave the secret realm, actually revealed a very strong intention of getting something. The way they looked at the lake made Ye Xiao feel if he dared to walk toward the lake, these two girls will immediately attack him and treat him as their enemy.
But why?
What is so special about this lake?
Just as Ye Xiao was about to ask, he saw Ning Xiang walking to the lake and jumping down.
Qin Xiaoling on the other hand revealed an excited expression. She also seemed a little impatient and anxious, as if she could not wait for Ning Xiang to come.
Not long after, Ning Xiang came out of the lake.
At first, Ye Xiao thought that there might be some treasure at the bottom of the lake, but Ning Xiang did not take out anything from the lake's bottom. She came out empty-handed. This proved that Ye Xiao's guess was wrong.
After coming out of the lake filled with blue blood, Ning Xiang nodded at Qin Xiaoling, causing her to almost jump in excitement.
Then she looked at Ye Xiao and said: "Let's retreat a few steps."
With that, she along with Qin Xiaoling backed away. Ye Xiao also retreated.
And it was at this time the entire cave started shaking heavily. Ye Xiao felt as if the cave will fall down. Fortunately, nothing that sort happened.
He then saw a strangely bright purple plant slowly emerging from the bottom of the lake. When it was fully revealed, Ye Xiao found that this plant was not that big, it was about half his size. But there were two bright purple fruit hanging. There seem countless stars imprisoned in these two fruits, sparkling brightly.
Qin Xiaoling's eyes lit up and said in pleasant surprise, "It's really the Million Star Heart Tree!"
"Million Star Heart Tree? What is that?" Ye Xiao could not help but ask. He really has no idea what this tree is and what those fruits are, but the excitement on these two girls' faces told him that this tree was not simple at all.
"This tree is the Million Star Heart Tree. Look at those two fruits, they are Million Star Heart Fruit." Ning Xiang finally started explaining. She continued: "It is said that the Million Star Heart Tree could only grow in the Blood Essence of Star Heart Chaos Beast, but the Blood Essence of Star Heart Chaos Beast is only one of the conditions. There is a total of three conditions that must meet in order for a Million Star Heart Tree to grow. This lake is filled with the blood of Star Heart Chaos Beast. Only that beast has blue-colored blood which is very unique."
"This fruit is very rare. It is said that swallowing a Million Star Heart Fruit could make a Chaos Spirit Realm warrior complete all Three Stages of Spirit Fusion and become a Chaos Spirit Saint."
"The Million Star Heart Fruit is so rare that it could not be found even if you travel to tens of Lands in Chaos. In fact, the Million Star Heart Tree takes a hundred thousand years to grow, and a million years to produce fruits."
"Do you know what that means?"
As she said this, she looked into Ye Xiao's eyes, her eyes sparkling with bright light.
The more Ye Xiao heard, the more shocked he became. At the same time, he was also confused. He could not understand a few things.
For example, that Nine Stages of Spirit Fusion thing. He could not understand it. But he could guess a few things from her explanations. Such as..., Chaos Spirit Saint is yet another cultivation realm in Chaos.
Also, this fruit really seems to be extremely rare and precious. After all, the tree of this fruit needs a hundred thousand years to grow and takes another million years to bear fruits. This yet does not include the time taken for the fruits to mature.
It could be seen how rare the Million Star Heart Fruits actually are.
Thinking deeply over Ning Xiang's question, Ye Xiao suddenly said: "Could it be..."
"Yes!"
Before Ye Xiao could complete his sentence, Ning Xiang nodded excitedly and completed the answer, "It means Red Moon Master must have been growing this tree for a very very long time. This fruit must have grown even before the Red Moon Temple was destroyed. This tree was hidden here on a purpose by the Red Moon Emperor. As for what that purpose is..."
As she said, she looked at the words written on the wall and spoke again: "The purpose is to find a successor who has a very high level of comprehensive ability. Only after comprehending something could a person obtain <First Key> in the other cave. These Million Star Heart Fruits are gifts from the Red Moon Master to the one who could obtain the <First Key>."
"First Key? What is that?" Ye Xiao frowned and asked.
"I have no idea what First Key is. But these two fruits alone are something that I could not let anyone take them away. These two fruits belonged to us sisters. Even you should not dare to compete for these fruits with us!"
As Ning Xiang spoke, her tone of speech become colder and colder toward the end.
