Falling in Love to Escape the Original Book Plot [BL] Chapter 128: Demon Plants Forest 7

The burning tree was two tres tall and three tres wide.

It had thousands of fiery blade-shaped leaves and three head-sized fruits.

Looking at the three fruits, Zhen Yuan couldn’t help but be happy.

"Level four fire fruits." He muttered.

The fire fruit tree was one of the more peculiar trees in the cultivation world.

From what Zhen Yuan knew, the fire tree naturally sprouted close to a skyfire or other special fire.

It grew for one thousand years and blood for another one thousand before yielding three fruits.

Initially, the three fruits are re level-one natural treasures.

However, their level was not static, it improved with age.

Level one fire fruits were less than one thousand years old.

Similarly, level two was less than three thousand years old, level three was less than six thousand, and level four was less than ten thousand years old.

Theoretically, the fire fruit could eventually beco an immortal or even a divine fruit. Unfortunately, mortal cultivators did not have enough lifespan to see the birth of an immortal or divine fire fruit.

Thinking of that, Zhen Yuan narrowed his eyes with a aningful expression.

He and Shen Xu had the Chaos Fla space.

If a fire fruit tree could sprout in the space, they could potentially have an endless supply of fire fruits.

’It’s a good idea.’ Zhen Yuan thought, looking at the tree.

Once he harvested the three fruits, the fire tree would imdiately wither and turn into a fire seed.

However, the seed of the fire tree was sensitive.

If not replanted within sixty breaths, it would dissipate and turn into nothing.

"Sixty breaths is more than enough ti." Zhen Yuan thought, removing three jade boxes from his storage ring.

Soon after, he harvested the fire fruits, put each in a box, and stored the boxes in his storage ring.

Less than ten breaths later, he grabbed the bean-sized fire seed and dashed into the space.

"Xiaoren." He called, and the little ginseng spirit imdiately appeared.

"Lord Zhen." Xiaoren bowed.

"This is a fire seed. Hurry up and replant it in the fire area. Make sure to plant it close to the wood elent fire."

"Understood." Xiaoren took the fire seed and promptly disappeared.

At the sa ti, Zhen Yuan began walking towards the fire area.

By the ti he arrived, Xiaoren had already replanted the fire seed, and a ten-centitre shoot had broken through the soil surface.

"Good job." Zhen Yuan praised, and the ginseng spirit blushed in happiness.

"Xiaoren will take care of the fire tree." The ginseng spirit promised.

"Mmh." Zhen Yuan nodded.

The fire fruit was a body-refining natural treasure.

With one fruit each, he and Shen Xu could advance from level three of body refining to level four.

Unfortunately, their body refining was not yet at the critical point of breaking through.

’It doesn’t matter. When the ti cos, the fire fruits will play an important role.’ Zhen Yuan thought and left the space.

It was more than ten days since Shen Xu went into seclusion.

These ten days were equivalent to more than three months in the Chaos Fla space.

Thinking that Shen Xu would soon advance, Zhen Yuan didn’t dare to waste ti.

After leaving the space, he arranged a teleportation formation in the hidden cave and left through the tunnel.

Once outside, he left the fire area and headed East.

Three days later, he arrived at a wide glade.

’This place should be good enough.’ He thought.

Over the next few days, Zhen Yuan arranged a level three lightning guiding formation in the middle of the glade and traps around the edges.

’It’s still too early for others to have co this far, but we can’t be careless.’ He thought.

Of everyone, he was most worried about Xiao Weimin.

Although it was too early for others to have co to the inner circle, there was no accounting for the child of luck.

For that reason, Zhen Yuan didn’t dare to be complacent.

Six days later, Shen Xu and Yang Shi ca out of the Chaos Fla space.

Instantaneously, dark clouds began to gather in the sky.

"Take this." Zhen Yuan said, giving Shen Xu a jade card.

"What is it?" The double asked.

"I have arranged a lightning-guiding formation in the middle of the glade. Activate it when you need a rest."

"Thank you."

"Hurry up." Zhen Yuan said, and Shen Xu nodded before heading to the middle of the glade.

Soon after, he sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and began adjusting his ntal state.

At the sa ti, the tribulation clouds continued to gather, and the sky began to darken.

Half a day later, thick black clouds covered a diater of one kilotre.

Seeing this, Zhen Yuan couldn’t help but worry.

Although he and Shen Xu adequately prepared, Zhen Yuan still clenched his hands and looked at the dark clouds with worry-filled eyes.

Just then, Shen Xu opened his eyes, and an arm-thick lightning bolt fell from the sky.

As it fell, the bolt broke into two equal parts.

One struck Shen Xu, and the other struck Yang Shi.

However, even the halved bolt was still two to three tis more powerful than the ninth strike during the foundation-building tribulation.

’Damn!’ Shen Xu secretly cursed, but his face remained expressionless.

Second strike...

Third strike...

.

.

.

Eleventh strike...

Twelfth strike...

After the twelfth, Shen Xu could no longer hold on.

His clothes were shredded in various places, his hair was burned to a matted ss, and his body was covered in burns.

Thinking that he still had six more, Shen Xu activated the lightning-guiding formation.

"Master..." Yang Shi called.

"The formation can only block four strikes. Take this ti to heal." The double instructed in a weak voice.

"I understand." Yang Shi nodded.

There was at least one hour between one strike and the next.

Considering that, Shen Xu and Yang Shi had at least four hours to heal.

Although four hours were not enough to completely heal their injuries, they were sufficient to heal their superficial burns.

This way, Shen Xu and Yang Shi could safely survive the seventeenth and eighteenth lightning bolts.
