Chapter 2165 Fairy Fruit
After taking a few steps closer, He Taiping said solemnly, "It won't take long for me to return to the True Immortal. Then I will be able to help you."
Zhou Shu smiled and nodded, "Thank you so much, Brother Ping."
It's not right to agree immediately. If you agree to Zhou Shu's help immediately, it will appear false, and Zhou Shu will not be able to entrust things to you.
He Taiping seemed to be thinking, "Zhou Shu, now you should also focus on cultivation, but why haven't you reached Sanxian yet?"
Zhou Shu patted the chair and said calmly, "I plan to skip the loose immortal and go directly to the true immortal. There were still some problems at first, but now that I have your secret method, it has been a big help."
"Skip over the Sanxian..."
He Taiping's expression froze, and he said worriedly, "I have never seen anyone do this. Nothing will happen, right? If you don't have the foundation of Sanxian, just go directly to condense the law. Can your body bear it?"
Zhou Shu smiled lightly and said, "Just give it a try."
He Taiping didn't say any more, pointed to a hole in the distance, and said casually, "Zhou Shu, there is a treasure there, do you want to go and see it?"
Zhou Shu just nodded, "Okay."
After walking along a winding tunnel for at least a quarter of an hour, he estimated that he was almost a hundred miles underground. He Taiping stopped and warned, "There are many traps set up by me ahead, and even the real immortals can hide them." It's extremely poisonous, so follow me so you don't encounter it."
Zhou Shu seemed to be thinking, "Brother Ping, what good things are you hiding?"
This passage was obviously dug manually and was quite different from the one outside.
"You'll know when we get there."
He Taiping smiled mysteriously and led the way. Zhou Shu followed closely behind without hesitation.
I am not completely reassured, but with Taotie Tao, I can swallow no matter how poisonous it is, and I am not afraid at all. Even if it cannot be digested and transformed, I will spit it out when the time comes. I have absorbed a lot of death energy and ghost energy, most of it. Unable to transform, they were all vomited out in the end.
Of course, Zhou Shu also has a way to deal with other machine formations.
The journey was only a mile, but it took a long time. After passing through the corridor, the scenery suddenly opened up.
It is a spring, bubbling gurglingly. From a distance, the spring water appears golden, which is very special. But when you get closer, you find that the golden color is not the spring water, but a small tree growing under the spring. This The tree was resplendent and shining with brilliant golden light, and even the spring water changed color.
The small tree is about as thick as a wrist, with nine branches extending out. The trunk and branches are covered with golden scales, which does not look like natural growth, but looks like a work of art.
The leaves are in the shape of a halberd, pointed at the top, and hanging down from the left and right. What is strange is that the veins are clearly visible on the leaves, and the roots are connected, as thin as a hair. If you look closely, you can find some golden juice flowing in them.
Just by looking at the vitality on the outside, you can tell that it is an extraordinary thing, and the trace of fairy spirit that overflows from time to time further proves its preciousness.
Zhou Shu wondered, "What is this?"
He Taiping said in a deep voice, "There are strange trees growing beside the spring. They are made of gold and condense with light. They bear fruit without flowers. Their food can reach as high as the heavenly dragon."
"Is it related to the Dragon Clan?"
Hearing Tianlong, Zhou Shu seemed to realize something.
He Taiping paused, "Yes, Tianlong is a noble among the Dragon Clan. Only a very small number of Dragon Clan can become a Celestial Dragon. Most of the Celestial Dragons are derived from innate special bloodline, but the fruit on the Celestial Dragon Tree has the effect of improving the bloodline of the Dragon Clan." , which allows ordinary dragons to have the opportunity to become celestial dragons, so it is regarded as a treasure by the dragons."
Zhou Shu's heart was slightly shaken, but his expression was very calm, "Could it be that this little brother is a dragon?"
"Bah, bullshit dragon!"
He Taiping was shocked when he heard the sound, and then spat hard, spitting out the grass blades in his mouth.
It can be seen that he is quite disdainful and even resentful towards the Dragon Clan, otherwise he would not have done this.
Zhou Shu smiled and said, "It shouldn't only be effective on dragons, right?"
He Taiping nodded and said slowly, "Of course, the Immortal Tree Fairy Fruit has an effect on any immortal, and for the Dragon Clan, the Heavenly Dragon Fruit can only exert some additional effects, and for ordinary immortals, it can also significantly It improves the body's muscles and bones far beyond those of ordinary immortals. This kind of dragon tree will bear two dragon fruits at a time. When it bears fruit, one for you and me! Each person can only eat one fairy fruit, and it will be ineffective if you take more. "
Zhou Shu quickly shook his head, "I can't do this. This thing is too valuable and I can't bear it."
He Taiping frowned and raised his voice a little higher, "Zhou Shu, help me obtain the secret method, and I have the hope of returning to the True Immortal or even being promoted to the Golden Immortal. This kind of kindness is tantamount to reincarnation, so getting a fairy fruit is nothing!"
"Brother, we have agreed on the secret method a long time ago, and there is absolutely no need to repay it, you know."
Zhou Shu paused and looked a little solemn, "If you have anything you want me to help with, just say so. If I can help, I will. If I can't help, there's nothing I can do."
"What did you say?"
He Taiping's expression changed slightly, and he said angrily, "Zhou Shu, of course I have something to do. How could I be knocked down several levels and become a miscellaneous immortal if I had nothing to do? I have a huge grudge to avenge! But don't worry, it's okay. It's my business. I will never ask you for anything, let alone what I should give you. Even if you don't want to repay you, you and I hit it off, so what if I give it to you? It's just a useless heart. Fairy fruit.”
He looked excited and spoke sincerely, but Zhou Shu shook his head gently and said calmly, "You and I did hit it off immediately and have a deep friendship, but if you have something to say, you'd better talk first."
He Taiping had a good relationship with him, but no matter how good he was, it was impossible to give him a fairy fruit that was worth more than a fairy weapon for nothing. That was something that no fairy could do, unless it was a close relative or the fairy fruit. There is a problem, and the latter is more likely.
It is impossible for Zhou Shu to accept this fairy fruit of unknown origin, let alone a blank check. If the real fairy fruit is placed in front of him, Zhou Shu may consider it, but now of course he refuses without hesitation.
He Taiping is indeed the person he trusts most in Wufang City, but in Wufang City, the person he trusts most cannot compare to an ordinary disciple of the Heyin Sect.
He Taiping paused for a moment, looked at Zhou Shu and sighed.
Zhou Shu said slowly, "Brother, doesn't the fairy fruit grow from Wufang City?"
This is obvious. The passage was dug later, and there is no illusion of fairy trees growing around it. The spring water and fairy trees were moved here and hidden.
"You want to know?"
He Taiping had calmed down, "Zhou Shu, if you don't know the origin of the fairy fruit and just take it and leave, you won't be in trouble in the future. But if you know, the problem will be big and it will be difficult for you to escape. You Do you want to know or don’t you want to know?”
Zhou Shu's expression was slightly condensed. He looked at He Taiping and had some doubts in his heart. Could it be that he had misunderstood him?
Maybe He Taiping is really a generous and heroic person, and the gift of the fairy fruit to him is not for his own sake. This possibility is very small.
Anyway, be cautious and you won't go wrong.
Seeing Zhou Shu's hesitation, He Taiping said slowly, "Forget it, I shouldn't have brought you here. If I had known, I would have given it to you directly when the results were obtained. Now... Zhou Shu, go out and just pretend that I never mentioned it." Pass."
Zhou Shu nodded and said no more.
