64 The Function of Empty Spirit Fruits

Luo Qianfan stopped on a slope 500 meters away.

He took out three quivers from his storage pouch and quickly put them on his back.

Dozens of eagle plume arrows were in each quiver.

Holding a big bow and wearing the quivers, Luo Qianfan looked majestic. Looking from his 500-meter distance, he laughed confidently. "Su Mo, today I'll show you who the King of Distant Fighting is!"

Whoosh!

He dropped down, put five eagle plume arrows on the bow and drew the bow quickly.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The bowstring was buzzing, which meant that it was another five-arrow-shooting. The five arrows looked like five black rays of light. They pierced through the air and flew toward several people in the large tree.

After he shot the five arrows, instead of stopping, Luo Qianfan once again placed another five sharp arrows on the bow.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

If one were to judge only from his hands, it would appear as if he was suffering convulsions. His hands were shaking so fast that people almost could not see them. The sharp arrows pierced through the air continuously, sounding like beans being fried.

Volley arrows!

Endless multiple arrows!

Luo Qianfan shot five arrows each time and the arrows flew one after the other.

The flying arrows flew toward different targets. It was as if they had eyes.

The unceasing arrows were like rain, shooting into the crowd in a flurry.

In order to block the arrows, several people were killed by Demonic Insects.

The martial artists of the Spiritual Martial Realm like Yan Qi, Wu Kui, Feng Zilan and others shot back and could no longer go one step further. At the same time, they were also being attacked by Demonic Insects and had been injured.

Few people could block the ferocious Class 2 Lv 2 Demonic Insects and soon several more people died.

"Sh*t! Freaking awesome!"

Su Mo was stunned and could not help saying a rude word.

"The King of Distant Fighting?"

Su Mo could not help praising him. If a martial artist in the same level fought with him and could not get close to him, he would be defenseless against this archery.

"Su Mo, you should take this opportunity to pick the fruit."

Alerted by Luo Qianfan's words, Su Mo immediately jumped up into the big tree with a laugh and began to pick the Empty Spirit Fruits.

This time, no one could stop him.

He picked the eight remaining Empty Spirit Fruits one by one.

Anyone who rushed toward him was blocked by the sharp arrows.

Some attacking Demonic Insects were also killed by the sharp arrows. Even when several occasional Demonic Insects passed the blockade of arrows, Su Mo killed them. They were no match for him.

"Haha!"

Having successfully picked off all the Empty Spirit Fruits, Su Mo felt overjoyed. Now he could not help admiring Luo Qianfan.

"Su Mo, put the Empty Spirit Fruits down!"

"If you dare to take them, I won't let you go after we return to Gale Island."

Seeing that Su Mo had taken all the Empty Spirit Fruits, others shouted at him loudly, one after another with angry expressions.

"You'd better deal with the demonic beasts first! Haha!"

Su Mo laughed again, leaped down from the tree, and flew away.

Su Mo soon joined Luo Qianfan, and the two quickly disappeared.

"Bastard!"

"Sh*t..."

The others were enraged. They tried their best to get rid of the attacking Demonic Insects. At last, they escaped, leaving dozens of corpses.

Under the siege of the Demonic Insects, most of them died. Only 10 were able to escape.

They were four geniuses, two martial artists of the Spiritual Martial Realm, as well as four disciples who were half a step away to the Spiritual Martial Realm.

In the cave for the exit, Su Mo and Luo Qianfan were walking side by side.

"Nine Empty Spirit Fruits, how do we divide them?" Su Mo asked, looking at Luo Qianfan.　

"We each take four. As for the remaining one, the one who wants it will pay 1,500 kilograms of gold for it. What do you think?"

Luo Qianfan said with a smile after thinking for a moment.

Su Mo felt surprised. The one who wanted the extra fruit would pay 1,500 kilograms of gold for it.

The value of an Empty Spirit Fruit was far beyond 1,500 kilograms of gold, possibly even twice that.

"1,500 kilos?"

Instead of answering at once, Su Mo asked, "What are the specific functions of Empty Spirit Fruits?"

"You don't know?" Luo Qianfan asked in surprise.

"Nope!"

"How about allocating these Empty Spirit Fruits first? Then I'll tell you," Luo Qianfan said with a deep voice.　

A hint of a strange light flashed in Su Mo's eyes. Luo Qianfan was not disclosing it due to a lack of trust. He was afraid that Su Mo would break the promise once he knew the functions of Empty Spirit Fruits.

Su Mo did not mind. After all, they were not that familiar with each other. His cautious behavior was reasonable.

"Give you four. If you want one more, give me 2,000 kilograms of gold," Su Mo said with a smile, handing him four Empty Spirit Fruits.

He was sure that even if he added to 2,500 kilos, Luo Qianfan would still want the fruit.

"2,000 kilograms of gold?"

Luo Qianfan thought for a moment but nodded at last, frowning. "Deal, 2,000 kilograms."

Although the price was very high, an Empty Spirit Fruit was worth that much.

"Here's 1,500 kilograms of gold, and a Lower Lv 2 Spiritual Herb. The herb is worth almost 500 kilograms of gold. They're all yours now."

Luo Qianfan took out 1,500 gold tickets and a blue herb and then handed them to Su Mo.

The Spiritual Qi the blue herb released was extremely rich, far beyond that of Su Mo's Jadeglow Grass. It was indeed a Lv 2 Spiritual Herb.

Su Mo immediately gave him the last Empty Spirit Fruit.

"Now can you tell me?" Su Mo asked.

"Empty Spirit Fruit is an extremely rare spiritual fruit. It's said that an Empty Spirit Fruit tree can only bear nine fruits once every 50 years."

Luo Qianfan continued, "It can't increase the cultivation of the martial arts, but in a short period of time, it can lead a martial artist who is under the True Spirit Realm into a state of Empty Spirit. When practicing martial arts techniques in this state, he'll get double the results by doing half the work."

"What? Awesome! Does it work for any martial arts techniques?"

Su Mo was shocked by the amazing function of Empty Spirit Fruits.

"Haha, it only works within a certain range of its capabilities."

Luo Qianfan said with a smile, "For example, I'm now at Lv 1 Spiritual Martial Realm. If I took a fruit, I'd be able to quickly reach a very high realm when practicing any Lv 2 martial arts techniques. However, if I learned Lv 3 martial arts techniques, the effect would be greatly reduced. After all, the higher the level of the martial arts techniques are, the more difficult to practice."

Su Mo nodded. Indeed, the higher the level the martial arts techniques were, the more difficult to cultivate.

The two Lv 3 martial arts techniques he had practiced were 10 times more difficult than the Lv 1 Ninefold Ocean Wave Fist.

Su Mo had been practicing Divine Wind Swordplay and Shadow Steps to the Minor Completion. The progression of his realm had been extremely slow. More than a month had passed, but the two martial arts techniques had only reached the peak of the Minor Completion.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Su Mo was aware of a problem. According to Luo Qianfan, it would still be very difficult for him to practice the Lv 3 martial arts techniques even if he took the Empty Spirit Fruits.

He had never eaten an Empty Spirit Fruit, but the Lv 3 martial arts techniques he practiced had reached the peak of the Minor Completion.

"Is my comprehension excellent?"

Su Mo could not help thinking in his heart, but he immediately shook his head and no longer entangled in the problem. Anyway, his high comprehension was a good and harmless thing.

"How long will the effect of Empty Spirit Fruit last?" Su Mo asked again.　

"Each Empty Spirit Fruit can last an hour more or less, and you can take two at a time," Luo Qianfan answered.

They walked and talked, and soon, they could see the light outside the cave.

"You go first!"

Su Mo suddenly stopped and said to Luo Qianfan.

Glancing at Su Mo, Luo Qianfan felt confused, but without asking, he nodded and said, "Be careful!"

Luo Qianfan went straight out of the cave.

In the cave, Su Mo turned his head and looked back with a cold smile, and then he sat cross-legged on the ground.

Anyone who wanted to go out must pay a price!

Yes, Su Mo was ready to rob some Demonic Cores here.

In the demon cave, there had been too many Demonic Insects, so he had not had a chance to plunder. But now he would not miss it, otherwise, it would be hard to rob them on such a large island.

Although they were not weak and outnumbered, compared to Su Mo, they were not strong enough at this time.

In addition, each of them had suffered serious injuries.
