Chapter 696 Green Spiritual Fruit, A Sorry State
It was a towering ancient tree. Its branches were thick and solid, and it was at least seventy to eighty meters tall. The crown covered an area of several acres, and the leaves were green and crystal clear like jade.
On the lawn next to the ancient tree, a purple fruit the size of a baby's finger was emitting a faint light. Its fragrance was refreshing and spreading.
"This is... A Green Spiritual Fruit?"
Ye Feng's eyes widened.
This Green Spiritual Fruit was an excellent supplementary medicine, and the one who consumed it could improve the symbiotic demon's cultivation and aptitude.
This was an extremely precious item.
Ye Feng was so excited that he almost cried.
"Haha, it's really like I've worn out my iron shoes in a long search, but I found it without any effort!"
He plucked the Green Spiritual Fruit and stuffed it into his mouth. He chewed a few times and swallowed it. He felt a warm current flowing through his body.
At once, steam rose from Ye Feng's body, his veins and skin were transforming.
The medicinal effect of the pill was extremely strong, even though Ye Feng's body had been tempered three times, he still could not take it.
"What a strong medicinal effect. As expected of the best support. It's really strong!"
He circulated the [Dragon Vein Technique] and began to absorb the medicinal power.
"Eh? This is..."
At this time, Ye Feng suddenly heard a slightly hoarse voice.
That voice seemed to come from the void far away. It was ethereal and drawn out, but it was also filled with a certain sadness. When Ye Feng heard it, his emotions became suppressed.
Ye Feng suddenly raised his head.
He was surprised to find that he was standing on a cliff.
Beneath his feet was a pitch-black python.
The python's body was as thick as a bucket and more than ten meters long. It coiled around the edge of the cliff, its scarlet tongue constantly extending and retracting.
Its oily green eyes shot out a bloodthirsty and cruel light, staring at Ye Feng.
"What the h*ll is this? It can actually fly?"
Ye Feng was so scared that his soul almost left his body.
He was clearly running in the forest just now, but in the blink of an eye, he had arrived here?
And this terrifying demonic beast had clearly been lured over by his aura!
Could it be because of this Green Spiritual Fruit?
"Roar--"
That black snake spat out a stinky breath. It opened its bloody mouth and bit toward Ye Feng.
"Don't force me!"
Ye Feng did not hold back. He waved his hands, and the crackling sound of lightning was deafening.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of lightning bolts struck the black snake.
The giant black snake hissed in pain as its skin was scorched by the lightning. Its body trembled violently and its head swayed.
However, it was still extremely powerful and did not suffer much damage.
"D*mned insect! You dare to provoke me?"
The giant black snake was furious. It roared at the sky, then its huge body twisted rapidly, like a high-speed train, and crashed toward him.
Ye Feng cursed in his heart. He used the wave-like steps to dodge. At the same time, he took out a whip with his right hand and threw it over.
Bang!
The two collided, and Ye Feng was sent flying by a violent force. He fell to the ground.
But Ye Feng's reaction was extremely quick. He rolled to the side and picked up the Green Spiritual Fruit that he dropped, running away immediately.
"Roar!"
The giant black snake let out an angry roar and pounced toward Ye Feng, smacking him away with its claw.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Ye Feng was in a sorry state, and he continued to roll around.
With great difficulty, he finally found an opportunity to lure the giant black snake into the swamp.
"Roar..."
The giant black snake screamed in pain and struggled to leave.
Ye Feng would not give it the chance. He took the chance to charge forward and slash at the black snake.
The black snake writhed in pain.
Swish!
The sharp teeth pierced through its tough scales, causing blood to spray out.
"Roar---!"
The giant black snake was injured once again and became even more furious. It swept its tail over.
Ye Feng dodged the attack by a hair's breadth, and the black snake could not be bothered to continue its attack on Ye Feng. It turned around and slithered into the swamp.
Ye Feng panted heavily. He wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and his face was filled with joy.
"That was close, I almost died."
This black snake was very powerful. If he took it head-on, he would definitely die.
But this thing was too clumsy. It had no intelligence, and it only knew how to fight with brute force. That was why Ye Feng was able to succeed in his sneak attack.
He picked up the Green Spiritual Fruit and was about to continue gathering the fruits.
Suddenly, a noise came from above the swamp.
Next, a white figure flashed and jumped into Ye Feng's arms.
It was a giant eagle with wide wings and a body that was twice the size of an ordinary eagle. Its eyes were extremely sharp and its body was strong.
"Screech--"
A clear and sharp cry.
That giant eagle opened its sharp beak and tried to peck at Ye Feng's neck.
Ye Feng hurriedly raised the whip to block, then raised his left arm and punched out.
Pfft!
He punched the eagle's chest and sent it flying.
Moreover, he felt that the giant eagle seemed to be very strong. The power of its punch was no less than that of a five to six hundred jin iron hammer.
"Not good!"
This was a demonic bird, and from its appearance, it was definitely an outstanding one among the demonic birds. Its combat power was not ordinary.
Ye Feng knew that he was no match for it, so he turned around and ran.
He quickly climbed up the stone steps and directly climbed halfway up the mountain. He turned his head to look at the eagle.
At this moment, the giant eagle had caught up and stopped halfway up the mountain.
Its eyes were filled with ferocity, and a low growl came from the depths of its throat. It flapped its wings, stirring up a hurricane.
It stared at the Green Spiritual Fruit in Ye Feng's hand with greed in its eyes.
"No matter what kind of demon this beast is, let's deal with it first!"
Ye Feng's eyes were cold. He gritted his teeth and threw the Green Spiritual Fruit in his hand. At the same time, he lowered his body and jumped into the swamp below the stone platform.
The Green Spiritual Fruit fell to the ground.
Immediately, the entire stone platform began to shake.
A circular ripple spread out, and the soil around the stone platform instantly boiled. Countless roots broke out of the soil and rushed madly toward the Green Spiritual Fruit on the stone platform.
Hu!
In an instant, Ye Feng lost all traces of the Green Spiritual Fruit, and not even a single leaf could be found.
"No!"
Ye Feng's heart was burning with anxiety. He stomped his feet and jumped into the swamp.
His four limbs dug into the surface of the mud, his two feet stepped on it, and he searched with all his might.
However, there was nothing in the depths of the mud other than mud.
Moreover, this area of mud was very wide, Ye Feng had dived down for a full twenty meters and still had no gains.
"F*ck!" he cursed gloomily and gave up on searching.
"Forget it. This thing is useless to me anyway. There's no use keeping it!"
Ye Feng sighed.
