Chapter 514 - 514 The Rejuvenation Tree
Li Xiang clearly expressed his thoughts and stance.
His personality was like this. He clearly distinguished between gratitude and grudges. After the other party made his decision, whether the other party chose to be a friend or an enemy, Li Xiang could accept it.
If the other party wanted to be an enemy, then Li Xiang would not show any mercy. Since he chose to be an enemy, Li Xiang would definitely get rid of him.
When the golden-winged Peng bird heard this, his sharp eyes flickered. Sometimes he seemed fierce, and sometimes he was hesitant. Finally, he took a look at Qing Ying and then at Li Xiang. Suddenly, he let out a cry.
Then, with a flap of his wings, he instantly rose into the air and flew away.
It was obvious that he had made the decision to leave.
Chirp!
However, when Qing Ying saw the golden-winged Peng bird leave, she became anxious for some reason. She let out a clear cry and chased after the golden-winged Peng bird.
“What’s going on? Could it be that this golden-winged Peng bird was a handsome male? Did Qing Ying like him?”
Li Xiang didn’t know what was going on. He was speechless when he saw Qing Ying chasing after the golden-winged Peng bird.
He felt that Qing Ying was about to be taken away.
What the hell was going on?
He didn’t know what these birds, or mythical beasts, would look like when they were in estrus time. Li Xiang was actually a little curious.
Qing Ying chased after the golden-winged Peng bird and flew into the sky.
The golden-winged Peng bird’s eyes lit up. He turned its head and flew forward arrogantly. The phoenix tried to wrap herself around the golden-winged Peng bird but was slapped aside by his wings. The phoenix then chased after the golden-winged Peng bird again. She seemed very perseverant, solid, and patient at that time.
Li Xiang was speechless. Did she have to be so humble? Was she worried that she wouldn’t be able to get married in the future?
Looking at how they were getting further and further away, Li Xiang felt that this phoenix had completely forgotten about her master.
“What an ingrate!”
When Li Xiang saw this scene, he felt really upset.
Looking at the situation, he knew that Qing Ying would not be back in a short time so he didn’t have to stand here waiting for her any longer.
After looking around, he jumped down the mountain.
Even though it was a few hundred meters high, he was not hurt at all when he landed on the ground.
Just as he was about to leave, he noticed a flash of red from the corner of his eye.
With a thought, his body flashed and moved toward the red light.
As he got closer, he saw a small red tree on the edge of a cliff.
It was a small tree about the height of two or three people. The tree was bent, but it looked strong and powerful. It was deeply rooted in the rocks of the cliff.
The leaves were green like pine needles, and there were red fruits hanging on the tree.
The fruits weren’t very big, only the size of walnuts. It exuded a faint red light, making people want to get closer to them.
Even from a distance, Li Xiang could feel its rich and special vitality.
“Rejuvenation Fruit? A divine grade spiritual medicine?”
Li Xiang’s Detective Eyes instantly identified the fruits in the book as one of the top rank spirit fruits, the Rejuvenation Fruit.
[Rejuvenation Fruit]
[Grade: Rank 3 of the divine realm]
[Description: It grows on the top of cliffs. It absorbs the essence of the sun and the moon. It takes 300 years to bloom, 300 years to bear fruit, and 300 years to ripen. It can grow for a thousand years.]
[Function: It has the ability to restore youth, maintain beauty, dispel poison and prolong life, and many other magical effects. It could be used to make some kinds of top rank medicinal pills or potions, which could restore youth, maintain beauty, or prolong life.]
Just one of them could be used to refine a youth-retaining pill, and its value was enough to instantly surpass countless top rank Divine Medicines. Its value would increase by hundreds or even thousands of times.
Any woman, even of a foreign race, as long as they had intelligence, would care about their appearance.
If it could maintain one’s beauty and even maintain one’s youth, it would be enough to make all transcendent female cultivators yearn for it. They would be willing to pay any price to get one of this kind of medicine.
“It’s so great! If I can get some of this kind of fruit, I can make youth-retaining pills or other pills with similar effects. It’ll definitely be the Kingdom of Dawn’s most unique product.”
As far as he knew, he had not seen any medicines with similar effects in the Business City.
Looking at the Rejuvenation Tree, Li Xiang really wanted to get some Rejuvenation Fruits. It would be a lie if he said he didn’t want such a rare treasure.
If he managed to get some, it could bring him and the entire Kingdom huge benefits.
Then, he got closer to the tree.
However, after getting a little closer, he noticed something strange about the tree.
There were some ghostly lights hidden under the pine needle.
These ghostly lights flickered slightly, and Li Xiang stopped being excited.
His eyes were filled with shock as he looked at Rejuvenation Trees again. The lights hidden under the pine needles were butterflies of various sizes. The ghostly lights were coming from these butterflies.
The dim lights were cold, which made people shiver.
The butterflies on Rejuvenation Trees were not common creatures.
Li Xiang immediately activated his Probing skill.
[Hellfire Butterfly]
[Grade: Mythical]
[Description: It is a kind of legendary butterfly born from the nether world. Its body contains extremely terrifying Hellfire. Once it is startled, it will immediately burn up and perish together with the enemy. Its flames can burn anything and can not be extinguished.]
“Holy sh*t! Such a brutal creature actually appeared here!”
This was a group of butterflies of death, bringing only death wherever they went. Once the Hellfire was activated, it would attach itself to the enemy’s body until the enemy was burned to ashes. It was even more terrifying than the inferno fire.
These butterflies were in a dormant state most of the time, but if they were awakened, they would fight to the death with their enemies. They hated to see living creatures, therefore, any living thing would be a target of their attacks.
Obviously, this was also the reason why this Rejuvenation Tree could survive here until now. Otherwise, it would have been discovered by other creatures, destroyed, taken away, or devoured.
Li Xiang was kind of shocked. Although he was very confident in his current body refining effects, he still had no confidence in facing such a terrifying creature.
If he hadn’t noticed them in time, he would’ve been seriously injured or even killed.
This world was filled with unknown dangers.
No one dared to say that they would be able to survive in this world. In the wilderness, death would find them at any time. Any accident could kill people in an instant and they didn’t even know why.
“Such a rare treasure is indeed not easy to get. If it wasn’t for the protection of such terrifying butterflies, it would be taken away before I found it. It wasn’t so easy for me to get it now. Before that, I have to deal with these Hellfire Butterflies.”
