Chapter 1000 - The Earthvein Spiritual Fruits (1/2)
Lu Xiaoyao said, “Little magic doctor, I need your help with something.”
Qin Haodong said, “President Lu, please feel free to say it. As long as I can help you, I will do my best.”
Lu Xiaoyao said, “Little magic doctor, there is a place called Thunder Mountain in the north of Dragon City. Many years ago, I passed by the site when I was collecting herbs, and accidentally stumbled across a legendary Earthvein Spiritual Fruits magic tree.”
“Earthvein Spiritual Fruits!?”
Qin Haodong’s expression changed greatly. As the Medical Sage, he was certainly aware of this kind of spiritual fruit. It was said that Earthvein Spiritual Fruit could help people and spirit beasts quickly awaken their bloodline power.
However, he had only read about this kind of spiritual fruit in ancient books and had never seen it in its physical form before.
Lu Xiaoyao said, “Yes, it is a kind of spiritual fruit. I have tracked this Earthvein Spiritual Fruits tree for many years. In a few days, the fruits on this tree will be ripe and ready for us to pick.
“I’ve been stuck at the stage of the Grand Completion Realm for a long time and haven’t made any progress in my cultivation until now. If I can obtain one Earthvein Spiritual Fruit, I’ll be able to refine the eighth-level pill, the Vitality Pill.
“At that time, I can use the Vitality Pill to help me reach the next level.”
When he heard the name “Earthvein Spiritual Fruit”, Qin Haodong was thrilled.
Although his Three-legged Golden Toad possessed the dragon bloodline, it was still very difficult for it to evolve again.
The Little Witch’s Holy Spirit Body had already been stabilized. She could summon the seventh-level demonic beasts each time. If the Three-legged Golden Toad wanted to evolve, the effect of devouring the seventh-level demonic beasts summoned by the Little Witch would be minimal.
If he could obtain one Earthvein Spiritual Fruit and let his Three-legged Golden Toad eat it, the Three-legged Golden Toad would be able to rapidly increase its bloodline power and evolve to become an eighth-level spirit beast. That would be equivalent to improving his own strength.
Despite being overjoyed at this news, he also knew that Lu Xiaoyao’s request would not be so simple. Since Lu Xiaoyao had to ask him for help, he must have some difficulty in getting those Earthvein Spiritual Fruits.
Sure enough, Lu Xiaoyao continued, “Since ancient times, this kind of spiritual fruit has always been guarded by spiritual beasts. These Earthvein Spiritual Fruits are guarded by the eighth-level demonic beast, the Earth Bear.
“This beast is powerful enough to match a master at the middle stage of the Grand Completion Realm. Moreover, it is always on guard beside the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits tree. Therefore, I’m afraid it will devour all the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits as soon as they are ripe.
“It is not an easy thing for us to get these Earthvein Spiritual Fruits. What’s more, it is really dangerous!”
Qin Haodong said, “President Lu, you want me to help you get those Earthvein Spiritual Fruits?”
Lu Xiaoyao did have this idea. He had never thought about asking Qin Haodong for help before. However, this idea suddenly struck him after he saw Qin Haodong’s strength last night.
He was at the early stage of the Grand Completion Realm. It was impossible for him to defeat the Earth Bear that was equivalent to a master at the middle stage of the Grand Completion Realm and get the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits. If Qin Haodong helped him, the probability of success was higher.
He said, “Little magic doctor, that’s what I mean. Please rest assured! You’ll get paid.
“When the Earth Bear went out to hunt, I observed this Earthvein Spiritual Fruits tree. There are five fruits in total. I only need one to refine pills. The remaining four fruits will be yours.”
Qin Haodong said, “President Lu, since you had such an opportunity, why did you not bring those Earthvein Spiritual Fruits back?”
He had only heard of its effects and didn’t know much about this kind of spiritual fruit.
Lu Xiaoyao shook his head and said, “After I saw the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits tree, I checked many ancient books. I learned that this kind of spiritual fruit is formed from the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth. The tree cannot be transplanted.
“Moreover, before these Earthvein Spiritual Fruits are ripe, they are useless and do not have any medicinal effects. Thus, I have to wait until these fruits are ripe.
“Just because of that, the Earth Bear has been staying there all this time and waiting for the right time to eat them.”
“Oh!” Qin Haodong nodded and asked, “How long it will take for these Earthvein Spiritual Fruits to ripen?”
Lu Xiaoyao said, “Three days.”
Qin Haodong said, “Well, let’s go and have a look now.”
He had already made up his mind to obtain the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits.
This thing was too important for him. First of all, the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits could help his Three-legged Golden Toad to evolve to the eighth level. Secondly, if the Little Witch ate the fruits, her Holy Spirit Body might undergo another awakening for the third time.
The Little Witch was now almost invincible at the seventh level. Once she became an eighth-level summoner, her strength would be unimaginable.
Seeing that Qin Haodong agreed to help, Lu Xiaoyao was overjoyed and said, “Great, little magic doctor, let’s prepare for our journey.”
Qin Haodong went to find Niu Cuihua and He Ziwei and told them about it. The two girls naturally didn’t object to this decision.
After breakfast, the three of them left Little Dragon City with Lu Xiaoyao. They made their way hurriedly to Thunder Mountain.
Thunder Mountain was not far from Little Dragon City. They arrived at their destination near noon.
Lu Xiaoyao pointed to the front and said, “The place where we are going is about 10 miles ahead. The Earth Bear is an eighth-level demonic beast. It is extremely sensitive. We must be careful and try our best to hide our auras. Otherwise, it will discover us and we will be in trouble.”
Qin Haodong and the other two nodded and walked forward with Lu Xiaoyao.
In front of them was a vast valley that stretched as far as the eye could see. At the edge of the valley was a huge cave, where the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits tree grew.
When Qin Haodong and the others arrived at the cave, they found that a lot of people had gathered there. Obviously, these people had also come for the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits.
Lu Xiaoyao was also stunned. He didn’t expect that there were others who knew the secret.
After observing these people from afar, he said, “Oh no! These people are from the Dragon Royal Family.”
If they were any other ordinary warriors, he still had a chance to get the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits. However, they were people from the Dragon Royal Family. After all, no one dared to provoke the Dragon Royal Family in the Dragon Kingdom.
Niu Cuihua said disdainfully, “What’s so great about the Dragon Royal Family? These Earthvein Spiritual Fruits were formed by the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, not planted by them.”
