Chapter 140 Kunlun Divine Fruit
The deeper he went into the peach forest, the more Ji Chen could feel the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Not long after, under the leadership of the Kunlun Saint and others, Ji Chen arrived somewhere in the forest.
Looking ahead, I saw a strange stone half a person's height in front of me. It was golden in color and very smooth.
Ji Chen approached and was surprised to find that this strange stone seemed to have life, giving people a feeling that it was breathing.
"This is the sacred stone of my Kunlun." Zhou Zhiqian said.
Ji Chen looked at it.
On one side of the holy stone, there is a very lush peach tree with extremely dense branches and leaves. Its branches are nearly times thicker than any other peach tree in the peach forest.
This peach tree, like a companion stone, absorbed a lot of its energy. The two became one. The whole holy stone leaned against the tree, just like an ancient sage, sitting there and falling asleep.
"This is our Kunlun sacred tree. The legendary Kunlun fairy tea is brewed from its leaves."
The Kunlun Saint said, "This time, whether or not the blood of the young master is effective, I, Kunlun, will give you a month's supply of fairy tea."
"Since it is a peach tree, it will bear fruit, right?" Ji Chen asked curiously.
The leaves of this tree can be called fairy tea. If it bears fruit, how miraculous will the effect be?
"The sacred tree blooms every 1,000 years and bears fruit every 3,000 years, but it only produces one fruit each time. It has been like this since ancient times. Those who eat the sacred fruit will gain the power of heaven and earth and will surely become a saint. But ever since something went wrong with the sacred stone, the sacred fruit has not appeared for nearly 10,000 years."
"Those who eat the divine fruit will surely become saints!"
Hearing this, Ji Chen was surprised.
This should be the main reason why the ancient Kunlun, which has been passed down for thousands of years, is immortal, right?
“Sir, you only need to drop the divine blood on the holy stone. You will know whether it works later.” said the Kunlun Saint.
Ji Chen nodded, without hesitation, he flipped his hand, took out a dagger from the mysterious ring, and then walked to the front of the holy stone and cut his finger with the dagger.
The blood began to flow, and the moment it touched the holy stone, a magical scene happened.
Ji Chen's blood seemed to be absorbed by the holy stone and disappeared in an instant.
After waiting for a while, the holy stone did not change at all. Ji Chen squeezed it hard and dripped more than ten drops on it.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, the space shook slightly, and an inexplicable force surged out from the holy stone, as if to wrap up Ji Chen completely.
"not good!"
Seeing this scene, Kunlun Saint and others were all shocked and their faces changed suddenly.
"Buzz!"
A flash of light appeared, and the Holy Maiden of Kunlun leaped in front of Ji Chen.
She formed hand seals and emitted a brilliant light, which seemed to have transformed into an energy shield, forcing back the power gushing out of the holy stone.
"I'm sorry to scare you, young master."
After everything returned to calm, she turned around and looked at Ji Chen with an apologetic look.
"What's going on?" Ji Chen frowned. In the previous moment, he sensed a dangerous aura.
If the Kunlun Saint had not acted in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
“Perhaps the blood of the divine body has taken effect on the holy stone, arousing its greedy instinct.” The Kunlun Saint frowned slightly.
"What would have happened if the Saint hadn't taken action just now?" Ji Chen also frowned, and still felt a lingering fear when he thought about it.
"It won't actually do any harm to you, sir. Instead, it will allow the power of the Holy Stone to completely attach to you. Then you will become a living human-shaped Holy Stone."
"Uh……"
Hearing this, Ji Chen couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, half believing and half doubting.
"As expected of the blood of a divine body, the vitality in the holy stone is indeed showing signs of reviving."
The old ladies from Kunlun came forward to investigate, and a look of surprise appeared on their faces.
The Kunlun Saint shook her head, then frowned and said, "It's just a wisp, too weak, it's not enough."
After that, she sighed again, "The blood of the divine body did help the holy stone, but now it seems that the effect is negligible. At this rate, even if you come to Kunlun every year to nourish it with the blood of the divine body, it will take ten thousand years for it to fully recover."
"If we want to revive the Holy Stone, it seems that we still need to find the Earth Spirit Milk."
Upon hearing this, Ji Chen fell silent.
After a long while, he suddenly said, "As for the Earth Spirit Milk, I do have some on me, but I don't know how much Kunlun needs, and I won't help you for free."
"Young Master, do you have the Spirit Milk of the Earth?"
Hearing this, Kunlun Saint Lady and others were all shocked.
She asked earnestly, "How many?"
Ji Chen touched his chin, hesitated for a moment, and did not reveal anything. Instead, he said, "It should be enough to restore the Holy Stone to a large extent. However, if this is true, how should Kunlun thank me?"
The Holy Maiden of Kunlun could not help but be shocked when she heard this. From this simple sentence, she could tell that the amount of Earth Spirit Milk on Ji Chen's body must be astonishing.
In the post-era, the Earth's Spirit Milk has long been an extremely scarce item. Even in ancient sacred places like Kunlun and those ancient families, it is difficult to get a few drops after searching for years. Where did Ji Chen get it?
Although she was puzzled, she did not ask, but said seriously, "If it is true as you said, and the Holy Stone can be restored, so that Kunlun can flourish again, then Kunlun may be able to meet any conditions for such a favor."
"Any conditions?"
Ji Chen was startled and couldn't help but glance at her.
"It's not..."
She immediately changed her words, "As long as it's not an excessive request, or something beyond the capabilities of Kunlun."
Ji Chen smiled, "Actually, my conditions are very simple."
He pondered for a moment, then continued, "The Saint once said that the sacred tree blooms every 1,000 years and bears fruit every 3,000 years. But now, because of an accident with the sacred stone, the sacred fruit has not appeared for 10,000 years. If I can restore the sacred stone, how long will it take for the sacred fruit to bear fruit?"
"You want a magical fruit?" She frowned slightly.
"Yes."
Ji Chen nodded without hesitation, "It is said that the divine body has a calamity in its destiny, and it cannot be cut off. The Return to Ruins Realm is the end, but the divine fruit contains the holy power of heaven and earth. If I get it, I may be able to use it to break the calamity in my destiny."
"There is no such precedent in ancient books, but it is indeed possible." The Kunlun Saint spoke seriously.
Then she looked at Ji Chen again, "The problem is that after the Holy Stone is restored, the divine fruit will not be produced immediately, but I can guarantee that within a hundred years, I will be able to hand over the divine fruit."
Ji Chen shook his head, "A hundred years is too long. I am quite confident in my talent. I will be able to kill Dao within ten years. I can't wait a hundred years."
As he spoke, he looked at the Kunlun Saintess, "If what the Saintess said is true, the divine fruit will be produced once every three thousand years, then Kunlun has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, so it must have obtained at least ten divine fruits, right?"
"But to this day, the position of Kunlun Saint Master has only been passed down to the seventh generation, and in the history of Kunlun, there have only been a few saints. This means that there must be some unused divine fruits among you Kunlun, right?"
