Chapter 229: Rebirth from the Ashes, Passed Down from Generation to Generation
The reason why Chen Jue ran away was because the roars of beasts coming from his ears were getting closer and closer, and the number of strange beasts making the roars was increasing.
Although he did not see the types of those strange beasts, but thinking of the special environment of this planet, Chen Jue estimated that these strange beasts attracted by the mysterious fruit in his hand were definitely not simple creatures.
Moreover, the [Xuanmen Qi-Watching Technique] also gave him a warning reminder about good and bad luck, making him subconsciously slip away.
With the belief that less is better, Chen Jue ran very fast. With the help of the [Speedy Speed] state, he seemed to have transformed into a dark figure and flew through the forest at high speed.
With a leap, he flew across the river channel he came from. When he approached the giant ants' habitat, Chen Jue suddenly discovered that the black and red giant ants, who he thought were neutral, had formed layers of stacked formations in the place he had to pass.
The giant ants, the size of a palm, seemed to form a torrent of black and red shells, blocking Chen Jue's passage to the invisible light curtain.
When Chen Jue arrived in front of the ant colony, a subtle mental magnetic field fluctuation came from underground. It was the desire from the queen ant to Chen Jue, the desire to get the mysterious fruit in Chen Jue's hand.
"Even these giant ants want this fruit?"
"How tempting is this thing?"
Chen Jue did not respond to the queen ant's mental magnetic field. Instead, he thought for a moment and threw the snake gall in his hand, which he felt was a little redundant, to the ant colony. He turned around and used his [Super Ear] to listen to the roars and running sounds of the beasts behind him. He leaped up and jumped onto the big trees on both sides, and began to fly through the forest with the help of the treetops, avoiding the interception of the ant colony.
"Queen Ant, the snake gallbladder is your reward!"
"Help me stop those troublesome guys behind me!" Chen Jue laughed, and just as he flew hundreds of meters away, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a group of giant ants with white wings on their backs suddenly rising into the air and rushing towards him among the ants below.
“Fuck!”
"There are actually air strike forces?"
Seeing this, Chen Jue tapped his feet and sped up again. He jumped up like a monkey at the top of the woods and flew several kilometers away.
The buzzing sound of flapping wings behind me was made .
In addition, Chen Jue looked back and found that there were several huge birds and strange beasts approaching at high speed a few kilometers away. Occasionally, there were also some agile figures flying over the tops of the trees, and it was unknown what kind of strange beasts they were.
The whole forest was noisy, as if all the birds, beasts and insects on this strange planet were gathering for the mysterious fruit in his arms!
"Damn! Have we disturbed a hornet's nest?" Chen Jue thought absurdly. Fortunately, the territory of this ant colony was only a little over 3 kilometers deep.
With Chen Jue's current agility value of 5.02, plus the bonus of explosive power and light-weight body skills, he took advantage of the elasticity of the tree trunk and jumped forty or fifty meters away. In just over a minute, he flew over an area of 3 kilometers and plunged into the golden invisible barrier.
As for the pursuing birds, beasts, and insects, after encountering the barrier, for some unknown reason they all slowed down. Some flew straight up along the light curtain, while others moved around the barrier like ants, clinging to the wall and not daring to jump over the minefield at all.
Seeing this scene, Chen Jue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, looked back at the dense swarm of beast sea insects, felt his scalp tingling, and accelerated to fly towards the stronghold.
After Chen Jue gradually left, the birds and beasts gathered outside the barrier began to slowly fade away under the warning of the mental magnetic field fluctuations emitted by the underground queen ant, and the forest gradually returned to its former tranquility.
…
"Those strange beasts, birds and insects are afraid of that barrier? Is it a fear they have for the rest of their lives, or is it acquired through training?"
"And what is the charm of this fruit? It can actually attract so many strange creatures..." Chen Jue flew quickly through the forest without stopping, with a thousand thoughts in his mind.
When he returned to the dark golden lake, Chen Jue used the [Xuanmen Qi-Watching Technique] to look out and sense again, and then used [Clairvoyance] and [Wind-Hearing Ears] to observe the surrounding environment. After making sure that there were no messy lives chasing him, he jumped down from the top of a big tree, slowed down by making a sound of exhalation, and landed steadily on the ground.
"call!"
"It's really exciting!"
Chen Jue placed the giant egg and fruit in his hands steadily on the grass, took off his helmet, and shook off the sweat on his forehead and hair.
With the press of the button behind the neck, the entire aerospace combat suit made a mechanical unlocking sound and became loose from its tight state.
Chen Jue stretched out his hand and took off his combat uniform, revealing a muscular body with perfect contours. White smoke and sweat were constantly evaporating from his body. It was obvious that the battle with the fat remnant tribe and the run for dozens of kilometers had consumed a lot of physical strength, and a very terrifying amount of heat was accumulated in his body.
With a "plop", Chen Jue jumped into the lake, using the cold water to cool down his body naturally and wash off the sweat on his body.
After climbing ashore, he trembled his muscles, shook off the water droplets hanging on his body, then took out the underwear part of his aerospace combat suit and put it into the lake water to wash it.
More than twenty days have passed since the launch from Earth. This is the first time that Chen Jue has washed clothes and taken a bath. After washing, he felt relaxed all over. He lay on the soft grass by the lake and basked in the warm sunshine.
The daytime temperature on this strange planet was around 30 degrees, which was very comfortable. There was also a cool breeze blowing from the forest by the lake, which made Chen Jue's tense spirit relax a little.
"They can spit fire, spray water, and emit sonic shock waves from their mouths. The beasts on this strange planet have all embarked on a path of extraordinary evolution."
"And they move very quickly, and most adult individuals have attributes above 1 or 2."
"Especially that ten-meter-long giant fat relic. The defensive power of its scales is not low. If I weren't strong enough and my sword was not fast enough, it would be difficult to behead it with one blow." Chen Jue analyzed, sat up, and took the mysterious fruit wrapped in huge petals.
He was running fast before and had no chance to study it. Now that he had entered the barrier and avoided the pursuit of those strange beasts, Chen Jue began to look at this mysterious fruit carefully.
Peel off the outer petals to reveal the crystal clear fruit inside.
The translucent dark golden flesh has the texture of jelly. It is bouncy when you rub it. When you sniff it, a unique fruity fragrance rushes into your mouth and nose, making Chen Jue feel refreshed.
"Highly concentrated and compressed innate Qi?"
"It seems like there is something different inside..." Chen Jue was curious and used the enhanced divine sense of [Holy Heart] to sense the fruit.
With a buzzing sound!
There was actually a fluctuation in the fruit that was similar to the magnetic field of the mind. Through this fluctuation, Chen Jue "saw" an extremely wonderful picture.
It was a seedling that sprouted from a dead tree and eventually grew into a big tree, like being reborn from the fire. From generation to generation, it inherited all the life information of the burnt giant tree!
"This is not a fruit...it's a seed!"
"Is it the alternative way of inheritance of the giant tree before it died? That giant tree can also be regarded as an extraordinary plant life form!"
