Jian and Song Yu have rested enough. Before sunrise, they woke up and freshened up. They have decided to move when the sun rises, so they had to be ready before dawn.
Jian and Song Yu has found guardians behaviour very odd. Because whenever they meet the guardian, the guardian will only focus on Song Yu, and whenever Jian tries to talk, they give them tasks and disappear.
Both were very confused. They felt that the guardians were avoiding Jian but why? They couldn't understand. Even though they had gotten their tasks, they were still confused about guardians behaviour.
But only one person knew, and that was Wolf king. Because after Jian and Song Yu had left the first tree. The wolf king has communicated with other guardians and has told about Jian's bloodline pressure.
So on the second tree, the guardian monkey king had tested Jian and confirmed Wolf kings suspicion. The Monkey King then has told every guardian about it.
So the guardians were only focusing on Song Yu and avoiding Jian. They felt pressure coming out of Jian's body whenever they made eye contact with him.
If Jian found out the reason, he would be shocked because he had not released any pressure. But due to his cultivation technique only one cycle away from refining his bloodline. The strain was automatically spreading.
The other reason was that Jian had eaten spirit fruits to satisfy his hunger, but he didn't know that a low-grade spirit fruit contains spirit Qi equal to two-star herbs.
He had eaten more than thirty fruits, so he already had enough Qi to complete his half cycle. He has to run his cultivating technique, so that's why the bloodline is releasing pressure, and Jian is not aware of it.
The sun has risen, and Jian and Song Yu are directly heading inside the hexagon formed by the guardian trees. Because the last guardian three elements Tree has told them that they would not complete the task if they stayed in the outer area of the forest.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo Jian and Song Yu understood that they had to move towards the centre of the forest to search for items of the tasks. So as the sun has risen, they have immediately started to move towards the hexagon.
While moving, Jian thought about the tasks because all tasks were about Spirit Fruit. Even though he knew that these fruits he ate contained a high amount of Qi, he didn't know the proper meaning of the spirit fruit.
"System, can you tell me about the spirit fruits?"
"Host, 200 SP will deduct as the price of the information."
Jian immediately agreed to it, and the system started to send the information about the spiritual fruits. The size of the information was not that huge, but still, it has left Jian speechless.
Spirit Fruit: It is a fruit that can be used as a herb to refine the pill. These are also divided into different grades, from one star to nine stars.
But the quality is different. Suppose you compare one-star Spirit fruit and One Star herb. The one star Spirit fruit is way better than that.
The Spirit fruit have a meagre amount of impurities. That's why they are considered way better than the herbs.
But all herbs can't be replaced by the fruits became the Spirit fruit has only two use. The first is that it contains a considerable Qi, so it can only be used in Qi related pills.
The other reason to use Spirit Fruit in the pill is to increase the affinity of the element. Other than that, there is no use of spirit fruits in the tablets. They are only used to increase the amount of Qi and affinity in the drug.
The spirit fruit can be used for breakthroughs. One Star Spirit fruit is more than enough to be used for a breakthrough to Foundation Building Realm.
It is low in impurities will help establish a sturdy foundation. The foundation will not be damaged. The spirit fruit is very much favourable in terms of increasing a cultivators talent.
The only problem is that they need more time to mature. So even if you have a spirit fruit tree, you would need time to enjoy it. So the prices of spirit fruit are a hundred times more.
The beasts favour Spirit Fruits because these are the primary resources they can use to improve. Since they can't refine pills, they can directly ingest spirit fruits to improve.
The higher-grade spirit fruits can be used to acquire a physique and refine a bloodline. So these are in more demand than herbs.
Each spirit fruit has different functions and different affinities. So you have to be very careful about which type of fruit you are ingesting. Otherwise, it can harm your foundation.
Jian had not expected the difference in herbs and spirit fruit would be like this. He thought that they would be similar. But after reading the information, he understood why all tasks were related to the spiritual fruits.
But when he read that they can help acquire a physique and purity of bloodline, he was left speechless. But when thought that it is stated that it can be used to increase affinity, then it is possible that it can be used to get a physique and purify a bloodline.
He immediately counted how many different seeds he had kept and checked how many fruits were remaining. Because at the start, the system had told him to keep the roots and a sample of spirit fruits from each tree.
So after reading about the spirit fruit, he immediately understood the intentions of the system and checked. He sighed a relief after finding that each sample of spirit fruits is there, which is more than enough to plant in the sect's herb garden.
Song Yu had seen that he had been following her with an absent mind. She didn't have any problem with it, but when he immediately started to check his storage ring, she got spooked and confused at the same time.
They had been only walking for one hour, and they still had not reached the outer part of the central forest. Now all guardians trees are visible. But only the top of the trees is visible.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe can see a proper hexagon shape formed by them. He knew that is very close to the centre, so they continued to walk. After walking for one hour more, they reached a place where a barrier had been created.
Jian and Song Yu immediately knew that on the opposite side of the barrier, they could find their items to complete the tasks. They didn't wait and directly touched the wall
As they touched their hand, they got through it. They immediately knew that they could pass through the barrier very quickly, so they didn't hesitate.
As they went inside the barrier, they were assaulted by the massive amount of wood element Qi. They felt their fatigue washing away. They were able to feel calm and fresh.
They felt like they could go on for two to three nights without resting. When they looked up to see the guardian tree, it was not there. Both frowned, and then they checked their surroundings.
They saw that the scenery had changed, so they knew that they were in another realm created by the tomb master where the essential part of the forest resides.
Jian and Song Yu were able to smell a vast amount of herbs and fruits in the air. There were multiple trees on one star Spirit fruits, and one-star herbs were near them.
Jian and Song Yu has not seen herbs in the forest, but inside the barrier, herbs and the spirit, fruits trees were everywhere.
Jian knew that the fruits which he had found to complete the tasks were all Two-Star Spirit fruit. So he knew that it would be guarded by a three-star beast or stronger.
So he had explained everything to Song Yu, and then they decided to search for Blood Spirit Fruit. They had agreed to complete the Wolf kings task first because it had less time remaining.
So Jian had already exchanged information about each fruit. So to find Blood Spirit Fruit he had to find an area with a massive amount of blood Qi or follow the trail of blood berries, which would lead him to blood spirit fruit.
Since he couldn't see any blood berries nearby, he activated Star Gaze and searched for Qi. It didn't take him long to find it. But he found only a tiny amount of it.
Meaning it was far away from their location. So then he told Song Yu, and then they started to move in the same direction. He had told her to look out for a tree with elemental fruits guarded by a three-star beast.
Because the guardian three elements Tree had only told them to find three spirit fruits with different affinity.. So in a way, if he finds them, then he can complete this task quickly.
