Chapter 230 God has made me smile in the spring breeze and become a long-lived immortal on earth!
Since entering this strange planet, Chen Jue has seen a total of four extraordinary creatures, including an ant queen hiding in an underground nest that can emit a spiritual magnetic field, a giant fat ant that is nearly ten meters long and can spit out 5000℃ flames, and two parrots that can emit sonic shocks.
Unexpectedly, the towering tree that he had ignored was also an extraordinary life form, but it was just a plant.
And this mysterious fruit, to be precise, is the seed left by the giant tree. Not only does it inherit all of its genetic information, but it also uses the pressure difference caused by the fire to bring strong winds, absorbing a large amount of innate Qi in the nearby air into the body, giving birth to such a wonderful seed form, which can promote its rapid development and growth.
This way of inheritance on the top of the giant tree is a bit like new buds sprouting from an old tree, and it is passed down from generation to generation.
"This can be considered an alternative form of immortal life. As long as the inheritance continues, it can be passed down from generation to generation."
"Seeking eternal life in the form of alternating reincarnation between trees and seeds, this trip to a strange planet is really worthwhile!" Chen Jue secretly sighed, staring at the tree seed in his hand thoughtfully.
Just like Yun Xiaomei whom I met in the old forest of Gongshan before, the other party learned the Xingyi boxing skills derived from wild animals by learning from nature.
Chen Jue took advantage of the opportunity to explore this strange planet to observe the shining points of those extraordinary life forms and to verify his own way of cultivation.
For example, if you look at the principle of Feiyi's fire-breathing, you will find that it is through the spraying of flammable liquid and then using bioelectricity to ignite it to form a fire-breathing attack.
Chen Jue quickly thought of a way to mobilize the body 's fat and flammable gases in the digestive tract, find an outlet on the body to release them, and then use methods such as the [Dragon Slaying Sword Technique] to mobilize bioelectricity. Stimulating ignition should have the same fire-breathing effect.
For example, the shrimp's attack method is to absorb water, compress its abdomen, and spray high-pressure water guns. Chen Jue can also imitate this by using the peristalsis of the stomach and intestines of the [Golden Toad Skill] to pressurize water and spray it out.
In Chen Jue's conception, the extraordinary level should have infinite extension possibilities, just like the tree species that was reborn from the ashes in his hand. Although it was an immobile plant, it still had its own way of survival.
There are three thousand great ways, not only for intelligent creatures, but even plants have their own great ways.
The fat leader wanted to take it and swallow it, hoping to use the energy in this tree to promote his own evolution and transformation.
"Seek the truth, borrow the truth, and ask the truth."
"The nature of this second home is also a place where the strong prey on the weak, plundering others to replenish its own body."
"Since you have helped me gain some insights, I might as well give you a hand!" Chen Jue muttered to himself as he looked at the tree. He found a suitable spot by the lake and planted it.
Soon, a magical scene was discovered!
I saw that the tree seeds that had just been planted began to sprout through the soil. A tender green sapling rose from the ground. The innate Qi around it was mobilized and absorbed into the sapling.
The roots under the sapling began to spread rapidly. Chen Jue could feel the ground beneath his feet trembling slightly. As the roots extended, the soil underneath was turned over. One root even broke through the edge of the lake and went straight into the lake to absorb water and nutrients.
In less than half an hour, Chen Jue watched a five-meter-tall sapling sprout from the soil to grow into a tree, as if the changes of life were accelerating before his eyes.
The five-meter-tall tree that inherited all the genetic information of the giant tree now had a large patch of gorgeous white, holy flowers blooming on its branches.
One of the flowers gathered all the energy transmitted by the small tree, and accelerated the production of a fist-sized light golden fruit, which hung heavily on one of the branches and drooped in front of Chen Jue, as if thanking Chen Jue for what he had done.
At this moment, Chen Jue felt like a real saint. He casually carried a spirit seed to form a good relationship. The spirit seed then blossomed and bore fruit, giving him a reward.
"Thank you, fellow Daoist!" Chen Jue smiled slightly, picked the fruit, smelled it and it was also fragrant and fruity, so he took a bite.
A sweet taste of pulp and juice spread in his mouth. After eating and swallowing the whole fruit, Chen Jue felt a natural vitality emanating from his stomach and intestines, spreading throughout his body.
Through [inner vision] Chen Jue discovered that the cells in his body seemed to have undergone earth-shaking changes at this moment!
Under the influence of that vital energy, his entire body from head to toe seemed to have entered a rapid transformation. His breathing became steadier, his heartbeat slower, his metabolism more vigorous, his thinking quickened, his energy became more abundant than before, and even his cells became more vibrant.
And at this moment, Chen Jue suddenly heard a ding-dong reminder in his mind, and a new one-time bonus state was awakened on the attribute panel.
[Fruit of the Tao of Longevity]: God has given me the spring breeze to smile and make me a long-lived immortal on earth.
Status level: Level 8
Status Effect: Increases the character's lifespan by sixty years.
Seeing the bonus status of this [Longevity Fruit], Chen Jue glanced at the lifespan column on the panel again. At this moment, the lifespan of 297 was skyrocketing!
Until the vitality in the stomach and intestines disappeared, the one-time state of [Longevity Fruit] also disappeared from the panel. The lifespan column really increased by a decade as described in the status, that is, 60 years, and became 357 before it stopped.
"Longevity Dao Fruit?"
"Can taking it extend your life by sixty years?"
"No wonder those strange beasts are chasing it desperately and trying to snatch it!" Chen Jue murmured.
Thinking back to the inheritance of this strange giant tree that is almost immortal, and the fruit it bears that can prolong people's lifespan, I suddenly remembered a passage mentioned in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas: Great Wilderness Southern Classic": "There is an immortal country, with a surname of A, and Ganmu is their food." Guo Pu of the Jin Dynasty commented in it: "Ganmu is the immortal tree, and eating it will make you immortal."
It seems that the extraordinary tree species in front of us with immortal characteristics is most likely the immortal tree mentioned in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
"This world is truly amazing. I never thought that a tree species that I saved from a tiger's mouth would have such a great origin!"
"The immortal tree bears the fruit of longevity. Eating it will extend one's lifespan by sixty years. It is indeed immortal. If this were to be spread back to Earth, the rich would empty their entire fortunes to get it."
"I just don't know how long it will take for this immortal tree to bear longevity fruit... wait... since the Feiyi tribe knows how to burn it to death with fire to force it to re-enter the cycle of reincarnation and speed up its transformation into seeds and fruit, it won't only bear fruit once in a lifetime, right?" Chen Jue's mind was racing with thoughts, and before he had time to think more, he heard a sound like an eggshell breaking next to his ear.
Looking back suddenly, I saw that the parrot egg I picked up had entered a state of accelerated hatching, perhaps due to the influence of the aura emitted by the immortal tree!
