The root of the Blood Heart Fruit Tree was like a beam. The thickness was only like that of an arm and it was long and deeply rooted.
Although the Blood Heart Fruit Tree was black in color, its root was red in color and it looked beautiful.
At the bottom of the root was a huge, red-colored ball.
It is the heart! Su Mo was amazed. The red-colored ball was a huge heart which was about the size of a house.
The Blood Heart Fruit Tree had indeed grown out of the heart as Su Mo had speculated.
At that moment, he could vividly see that the huge red heart beating. Although the heart beat was faint, it was alive.
Is the heart still alive? Su Mo was surprised. Very quickly, he pushed away the thought as it did not seem possible.
How can the heart of an Ancient Demon be alive after it has been dead for so many thousands of years!
Probably, the vitality is still there, causing the heart to continue beating.
“The vital essence is so majestic!” Su Mo felt overwhelmed by the aura that exuded from the Ancient Demon’s heart. The vital essence was comparable to that of a Top-Grade Dragon’s Vein!
Su Mo started to covet the Ancient Demon’s heart and felt like keeping it for himself rather than giving it to Myriad Worlds Mountain.
However, the thought only came to his mind and he quickly pushed it away. Myriad Worlds Mountain was mysterious and he could not afford to offend it.
“Get up!”
Without thinking any further, Su Mo stretched out his hand and turned it into a huge Dark Force Palm. It came down from the sky and grabbed toward the Ancient Demon’s heart.
Pom!
The Dark Force Palm grabbed hold of the Ancient Demon’s heart and through the Dark Force Palm, Su Mo could vividly feel the vast vital essence that was in the Ancient Demon’s heart. It was majestic, powerful, and deep.
After Su Mo slowly grabbed hold of the Ancient Demon’s heart, he successfully kept it into the Bangle Space.
Hoof!
After Su Mo had kept the Ancient Demon’s heart, the pressure that he had been withstanding suddenly dissipated and his body became relaxed all of a sudden.
“I have accomplished my mission!” Su Mo broke out into a smile. He felt utterly relaxed after he had obtained the Ancient Demon’s heart.
After the test had ended, he would leave the Ancient Demons Cemetery.
However, he was half a month away from the test ending and he had to find a place to work on his cultivation.
Su Mo then left Skeleton Heart Valley. He darted across the horizon and disappeared into thin air.
After Su Mo had left, 15 minutes later, two disciples from Sun Moon Tribe came over to Skeleton Heart Valley.
“What happened?” The two of them looked at the Skeleton Heart Valley that was in ruins and they were dumbfounded.
The two of them had been seriously injured when they had tried to stop Su Mo back then, and they had been recuperating nearby.
After they had recovered from their injuries, they heard strange sounds coming from Skeleton Heart Valley and had rushed over.
“Why has Skeleton Heart Valley sunk so deep in?”
“Where is the Blood Heart Fruit Tree?”
The two of them looked at each other and were baffled. They had no idea what had happened.
After that, the two of them flew carefully into the Valley. They were shocked when they noticed that their heart was no longer beating fast. Previously, Skeleton Heart Valley had caused their heart to beat vigorously.
Skeleton Heart Valley had been around for many years. When the Ancient Demons Cemetery came about, Skeleton Heart Valley was already around but it looked different now.
The strange phenomenon of the heartbeat was gone and the Blood Heart Fruit Tree was no longer around!
After checking around Skeleton Heart Valley, the two disciples did not find any clues and they were left with no choice but to leave.
…
Su Mo sat cross-legged among the weeds, deep in the ground of the jungle.
There were nine Blood Heart Fruit before him and five Black Demon Flowers. Those were his spoils for the trip.
Other than those, he had obtained a few storage rings after killing some disciples from Empty Sky Sect and that had amounted to a hefty sum of spoils.
However, those were secondary. Other than the Ancient Demon’s heart, Su Mo’s Devouring Fighting Soul had devoured a Demon Mountain, which was another treasure.
Moreover, there was a Glazed Pagoda in the Demon Mountain.
Su Mo had a rich harvest from his trip to the Ancient Demons Cemetery.
“I wonder what kind of effect the Blood Heart Fruit will bring about!” Su Mo muttered to himself as he looked at the Blood Heart Fruit that were before him.
He then stowed the five Black Demon Flowers and eight Blood Heart Fruit, leaving one behind.
“I hope that it will not disappoint me!”
Su Mo took a deep breath and swallowed the Blood Heart Fruit.
When the Blood Heart Fruit entered his body, the vital essence gathered together. It was not as per what Su Mo had thought, to be surging forcefully.
Su Mo then started to activate his Dark Force to refine the Fruit.
As he continued to refine the Blood Heart Fruit, the efficacy of the Fruit started to spread out to every part of his body and merge into his blood.
A shocking scene then took place. As Su Mo had cultivated the Archean Dragonesque Elephant Skill in his early years, his blood had been golden in color.
However, after the efficacy of the Fruit had merged into his blood, it started to change in color.
“What is happening?” Su Mo was shocked. He then calmed himself down and started to ponder.
He did not stop refining the Fruit as he realized that it did not do him any harm.
The Fruit was precious and considering that even Leng Xie had tried using all sorts of methods to snatch it away from him. It must be good.
Su Mo continued to refine the Fruit and his blood continued to change color. After about 15 minutes, his blood changed to a dark purple color.
The purple blood was so dark in color that it looked like demon’s blood was flowing in Su Mo’s body.
As the blood flowed continuously into Su Mo’s body, he could vividly feel his physical body getting stronger at a fast pace.
The power of his Blood Force, that was hidden in the blood, was affected by the efficacy of the Fruit and it gradually became more powerful as well.
Not only that, but the dark purple blood scoured his body and washed off the impurities that were in his body and discharged them through his pores.
Not bad. It has strengthened my physical body, enhanced my Blood Force, and increased my talent! Su Mo’s eyes lit up. No wonder so many people are vying over the Blood Heart Fruit. It has so many benefits.
As the efficacy of the Fruit continued to be refined, Su Mo’s blood became darker and his aura started to change as well. Indistinctly, demon power exuded from him and it was similar to that of the men from the Demon Clan.
After four hours, the efficacy of the Fruit had been totally refined and Su Mo’s body had transformed into a demon body. He exuded immense demon power.
“Hoof!”
Su Mo let out a long breath after he ended the cultivation. He felt revitalized.
He then shook his body to shake off the impurities that had been discharged from his body.
The effects are indeed amazing! Su Mo grasped his hands and light flowed into his eyes. He felt that his physical body had been enhanced tremendously, in terms of both strength and defense force.
Although the power of his Blood Force did not increase tremendously, there was already a great improvement. He could only find out how much his power had enhanced when he started to fight.
The constitution of his body had changed as well to make it more apt for cultivation.
In conclusion, one Blood Heart Fruit alone had helped him change significantly.
