Chapter 933: Chapter 937 Spirit Fruit

    “Everyone, it’s just a ferocious beast, there’s no need for such grand gestures.”

    As the dust settled, a seductive and mischievous voice echoed across the land.

    “That voice…!”

    Guo Po and the others reacted immediately, desperately searching for the source of the sound.

    There was no mistake! That was Xia Liu’s voice!

    He wasn’t dead!

    Not dead!

    “Huh? Isn’t this Old Master Chen? Why are you here at the Guo Family too?”

    Suddenly, Xia Liu noticed Chen Tian’en and asked in confusion.

    “Chief Xia!”

    Finally, Guo Po located Xia Liu. He was standing behind the corpse of the Flame Sea Dragon!

    “Xia Liu!”

    “Chief Xia!”

    Chen Tian’en and Ye Hai exclaimed in shock.

    There was no mistake! Even if he turned to ashes, they would recognize him—standing beside the Exotic Beast was indeed Xia Liu!

    “Hey, hey, let’s all calm down. Explain the situation. Why are you all here?”

    Raising his hand to signal them to contain their excitement, Xia Liu asked calmly.

    “Chief Xia, I didn’t fully understand the situation earlier. I informed Daoist Fellow Chen from Yanjing of your whereabouts, and then…”

    Being questioned by Xia Liu, Duan Tiandao explained somewhat bitterly.

    “So that’s how it is.”

    Xia Liu nodded slightly.

    No wonder. The Forbidden Martial Hall in Harbor City and Huaxia’s Heavenly Mansion originate from the same lineage. It wasn’t unusual for Duan Tiandao to quickly contact Chen Tian’en.

    Chen Tian’en remained silent, quietly observing Xia Liu.

    Upon hearing news of Xia Liu’s demise, Chen Tian’en had been heartbroken.

    Now seeing him again, his heart surged with indescribable emotions.

    Perhaps staying silent was the best choice.

    “Daoist Fellow Guo, my earlier intrusion into the Guo Family was reckless. To express my regret for my misconduct, I gift you the corpse of this Flame Sea Dragon.”

    “Chief Xia, you mustn’t say such things! Your arrival at my Guo Family is a blessing to us. Moreover, you killed the Flame Sea Dragon for the welfare of the people—this is an immensely virtuous deed!”

    Guo Po nearly dropped to his knees. How could Xia Liu possibly be reckless?

    His arrival at the Guo Family resolved a future catastrophe for them. The Guo Family should be rewarding him instead.

    “Ah, one thing doesn’t negate the other. This Flame Sea Dragon’s corpse has effects that strengthen a Martial Artist’s body. Your opportunity has arrived.”

    “What! It can strengthen the body!”

    “This…”

    Suddenly, all the Martial Artists present trembled with excitement.

    They had heard of pills that could strengthen the body, but never of such a method.

    “Not only that, but it can also enhance the meridians. For Martial Artists cultivating Fire Attribute techniques or skills, the effect is even more pronounced.”

    Xia Liu continued to explain.

    “My heavens! This is truly an unprecedented opportunity!”

    Guo Po was utterly shocked.

    After all, he was a Martial Artist cultivating Fire Attribute techniques.

    Moreover, most of the Guo Family cultivated Fire Attribute techniques and skills.

    This Flame Sea Dragon was practically tailor-made as a miraculous elixir for them!

    “The body of this Flame Sea Dragon is extremely hot. Be cautious when consuming it.”

    “Chief Xia, such a treasure, you…”

    “Daoist Fellow Guo, no need to worry. I’ve already consumed it and gained benefits; eating more won’t help me.”

    Xia Liu understood what Guo Po wanted to say. If the Flame Sea Dragon still held any value for him, he would’ve devoured it entirely in the valley rather than bringing it up here.

    “This… Thank you, Chief Xia, for your great generosity!”

    “Thank you, Chief Xia!”

    “Thank you, Chief Xia!”

    Guo Po’s words prompted immense gratitude from all the Guo Family members present.

    Many were already drooling uncontrollably.

    The Flame Sea Dragon meat that could enhance the body and meridians—who wouldn’t want to try it?

    Yet, no one forgot Xia Liu’s warning: the meat was incredibly hot.

    Indeed, after an Earth-Rank Warrior tried it, they confirmed the truth.

    The meat was scalding.

    “Daoist Fellow Guo, please look after my friends here.”

    “Of course! Friends of Chief Xia are honored guests of the Guo Family.”

    “Good, then I’m reassured. By the way, how is Little Man (Guo Man)?”

    Xia Liu was still highly concerned about Guo Man’s well-being.

    Having witnessed him fall into the Secluded Valley, she must have already forgiven him, right?

    “She sat here for an entire day and night. At dawn, she fainted and was brought back home.”

    Speaking of Guo Man, Guo Po’s tone grew tender.

    At the same time, he couldn’t help but harbor a trace of anticipation—given the relationship between Guo Man and Xia Liu.

    If their connection deepened further, there might be joyous events for the future.

    “I understand. I’ll leave this place to you now; I’m heading across to check if the Spirit Tree bears any miraculous Spirit Fruit!”

    Xia Liu could hardly contain his excitement.

    For this moment, he had waited too long. His heart also carried guilt for having emotionally hurt an innocent girl.

    If it proved fruitless, this endeavor would truly have been a great loss.

    “Understood.”

    Guo Po nodded. Right now, only Xia Liu could traverse to the other side of the gorge. Once he returned, valuable information would be in their hands.

    As Xia Liu prepared to leave, all the Guo Family members focused intently on him.

    “Chief Xia is about to depart. We’ll get to witness his movement technique again!”

    “Chief Xia’s movement technique is unparalleled, truly extraordinary!”

    “Amazing! We get to see his terrifyingly supreme technique once more!”

    …

    The chatter caught the attention of Chen Tian’en, Ye Hai, and the Heavenly Mansion members, arousing their curiosity.

    Their familiarity with Xia Liu was limited to the assessment assembly, during which he had been capable of slaying Path-Entering High-Level opponents.

    Now, mere months later, they wondered how much he had progressed.

    Xia Liu smiled bitterly. Crossing this gorge now required only abundant inner strength; anyone could traverse six hundred meters.

    “Daoist Fellow Guo, the Gang Wind has been dismantled by me. If you’re comfortable, come across with me.”

    “Huh? The Gang Wind is gone?”

    Before Guo Po could fully process his astonishment, Xia Liu leapt forward, his graceful body gliding effortlessly mid-air, invoking the Wind Riding Technique.

    In everyone’s eyes, Xia Liu appeared like a Green Feather, drifting toward the distant cliff with the air currents.

    Witnessing such supreme movement, Chen Tian’en and Ye Hai trembled in awe.

    Indeed, in the few months since, Xia Liu had once again grown stronger!

    If their assumptions were correct, his cultivation had reached a terrifying realm.

    The youth who once struggled to eliminate a Path-Entering High-Level opponent was now possibly capable of instantaneously obliterating a Path-Entering Peak adversary…

    Returning to the previous cliff, Xia Liu couldn’t help but feel deeply moved.

    The earlier battle had been a life-and-death struggle.

    Thankfully, the heavens had been kind, allowing him to slay the Flame Sea Dragon.

    This time, Xia Liu finally reached the Spirit Tree. S~ea??h the N?velFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    The Spirit Tree stood roughly a hundred meters tall.

    From the opposing cliff, its silhouette could be vaguely seen.

    Now standing at its base, Xia Liu realized how massive the Spirit Tree truly was.

    Scanning it with Divine Sense, Xia Liu discovered Spiritual Energy clinging to its trunk.

    Especially at the core, it seemed to have a “meridian” flowing from the roots up through the trunk and into the leaves…

    “That’s it!”

    His Divine Sense reached the tree’s top, and Xia Liu’s mind reflected an image of numerous magnificent golden fruits!

    They resembled peaches but radiated rich Spiritual Energy and a unique aura that nearly overwhelmed him.

    Overwhelmed with excitement!

    Regardless of whether these Spirit Fruits could enhance appearance, their inherent miraculous effects were undeniable. Consuming just one would surely yield amazing results!
