Chapter 344: Temptation (please subscribe)
Unknowingly, a night passed.
With three crisp sounds, the Zhenqi pills in the three pill furnaces were also announced to be refining.
Chen Fan opened the furnace lid, and immediately, a strong aroma of alchemy filled the entire alchemy room.
“It’s almost done, let’s just come here first.”
He muttered to himself, looking at the clock on the wall.
Seven forty.
According to Meng Xue's prediction, around 8:20, the twelve God Fruits on the God Tree will be fully mature and ready to be picked.
If you miss the time, it is likely to be taken away by nearby ferocious beasts, or by some awakened people.
The latter situation sounds unlikely, because not everyone has Meng Xue’s tips and knows the location of the God Tree and the ripening time of the fruit.
But the world is full of wonders. If others had some special means, they would have already known about the existence of the God Tree and have been waiting for the fruit to fully mature.
So, he would rather go there early, even if he has to wait at the scene.
However, before setting off, there is one very important thing to do.
Chen Fan drank all the three batches of Zhenqi pills that had just come out of the oven while they were still hot.
On the panel, the potential points suddenly surged from the previous 20 to 30 million to 4 billion.
His eyes slowly moved up and landed on the plus sign behind the realm bar.
A thought in my mind.
One hundred million potential points are invested.
Suddenly, there were more than ten drops of true energy in his body.
True Yuan: 13230.7/334.1 (+3860%)
Original True Essence has been increased from the previous 330 points to 334 points.
It was only an increase of 4 points, but the total amount of real energy increased by nearly 20 points.
Chen Fan looked at the remaining potential points and saw that he could still click 40 times.
337.5, 340.8, 344.2…
Every time 100 million potential points are consumed, the original essence will increase by a few points. As time goes by, the number of points increased will become more and more.
When the last 100 million potential points were consumed, the original true energy in his body had reached 497.2 points, which was an increase of 50% compared to the 330 points at the beginning!
Realm: True Yuan Realm·First Realm (17.1%) (+)
True Yuan: 19687.2/497.2 (+3860%)
“Nearly 20,000 points of real energy.”
Seeing this, Chen Fan showed a smile on his lips.
Two million points of Qi, enough for him to use twenty times the sun-shooting arrows with a hundred times the power.
“So many internal skills and mental methods are not learned in vain.”
His original true energy is close to 500 points, consuming 100 million potential points, and the increased true energy is as high as 5 or 6 points, which is also a consumption of 100 million potential points. The previous improvement is only half of the current level.
It is conceivable that as the source of true essence increases, when the time comes to click the plus sign, the total amount of true essence will increase by more than ten points!
“I feel like it’s just around the corner to advance to the second level of True Essence Realm.”
Chen Fan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and then a flash of light flashed in his eyes.
It’s time to go.
Anshan City in the early morning is a bustling and bustling scene.
Chen Fan reached the highest point and looked at the vast mountains behind him, his eyes narrowed.
Compared to the wilderness, the mountains are more dangerous.
Because there are not only countless ferocious beasts, but also a variety of mutated plants. From a certain aspect, they are more dangerous than the ferocious beasts.
He put on the mask silently, jumped into the mountains a few times.
As soon as he entered, a rotten smell hit his nostrils, and it was as if he had entered another world.
Huge trees rise from the ground, usually more than ten meters tall. Five or six people hold hands to surround the trunk. The top of the tree is like an umbrella, and the leaves block the sky and the sun. Occasionally, a ray of sunlight falls through the gaps between the leaves.
With the faint sunlight, you can see that the ground is covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves, and various reptiles crawl across it from time to time.
In the distance, there are all kinds of unnamed plants with different colors.
Chen Fan identified the direction and headed towards the destination.
Not far away, a fiery red figure suddenly fell from the tree in front of him.
It was a venomous snake over two meters long!
It was extremely fast, like a bolt of lightning, its mouth opened wide, and it bit Chen Fan's neck.
But the next moment, it seemed to hit an invisible wall of air and exploded into a ball of blood mist.
Chen Fan didn't seem to be aware of this, and continued to move forward on his own.
Along the way, ferocious beasts continued to attack Chen Fan from various unexpected angles.
There are poisonous snakes disguised as fallen leaves.
A poisonous spider the size of a washbasin.
A strange bird with outstretched wings that is nearly three meters long.
Even the vines on the ground looked the same as ordinary ones, but after sensing Chen Fan's approach, they seemed to come alive and rushed toward him quickly.
Without exception, they were all shattered by the golden bell.
However, even so, various attacks still appear in endlessly.
The ferocious beasts below the commander level have no intelligence at all. Chen Fan, who suddenly appeared in front of them, is just a prey to them.
The mountains are indeed much more dangerous than the wilderness.
Chen Fan sighed in his heart.
The ferocious beasts encountered along the way were at the level of mid-to-high-level ferocious beasts, but they were well hidden with the help of the terrain. If it were a Pulse Refining Realm warrior, anyone who was not careful would be hit by them, let alone an ordinary person.
If you go further, it is reasonable to encounter elite-level ferocious beasts.
Even, a commander-level ferocious beast.
However, he is much stronger now than yesterday. If he really meets a commander-level person, it will only be a matter of one arrow.
After a few minutes.
Chen Fan stood on the top of the tree and looked ahead.
“Could that be the God Tree?”
He opened his eyes wide.
I saw the half -mountainside of a mountain in front of it. Unlike the way along the way, the giant trees are next to each other. There, within tens of meters, there is only one tree.
Yes, there are not even any weeds around, not to mention other trees. It is completely a large open space.
On the branches of the giant tree, red, oval-shaped fruits like lanterns hang.
Each one is as big as a cantaloupe.
“That should be the God Fruit, right?”
Chen Fan said to himself.
As he finished speaking, he flashed, and the next moment, he appeared outside the open space around the God Tree.
The height of this tree alone is close to thirty meters, as high as a ten-story building. The diameter of the trunk is close to ten meters. The branches and leaves above spread out, covering the open space below with a radius of several hundred meters.
I have to say, this looks quite normal.
However, all this is its disguise.
As long as you get close to its attack range, that is, the open space, you will be attacked immediately.
Chen Fan thought for a moment and walked forward.
One step, two steps, when the third step is taken and the left foot is about to land,
A "swish" sound!
A tree root as thick as an adult man's forearm broke out from the ground where Chen Fan's left foot was about to land! With a fierce momentum, he stabbed towards Chen Fan's left foot, as if he wanted to pierce Chen Fan's body.
Chen Fan did not dodge or take action.
A "bang" sound.
At the moment of the impact, the tree root broke into several pieces and scattered on the ground. The remaining rear half quickly retracted into the ground. Strangely, the hole that broke out of the ground disappeared.
Chen Fan had a thoughtful look on his face.
Then he walked forward again.
After all, there are still about twenty minutes until the fruit is fully ripe.
It's been a long time, and it's idle. It's better to figure out this guy's attack methods. When the fruits ripen, picking them will be more efficient.
He had just taken two steps forward when another tree root as thick as a small arm broke out of the ground and stabbed towards the soles of his feet.
It's just that the result is no different from the first one.
Chen Fan had a smile on his lips and continued to walk forward. "Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Suddenly, several tree roots burst out of the ground and attacked Chen Fan's body from all directions. Compared to the previous two, their speed more than doubled!
“Peng Peng Peng!”
Several dull crashing sounds were heard one after another, and the tree roots were broken into several pieces.
“The attack method is the same, but the number is larger and the speed is faster.”
Chen Fan thought about the attack just now.
If it were an ordinary elite-level ferocious beast, it's hard to say whether it could be avoided.
He continued walking forward.
“Swish swish!”
More than ten tree roots burst out of the ground in succession!
Compared to the previous ones, this one is faster!
And the thickness also changed from the thickness of a small arm to the thickness of an arm.
Unfortunately, the result this time was no different from the previous times.
These tree roots not only failed to hurt him at all, but were also shattered by the surging true energy in his body, and the remaining parts fled back to the ground in embarrassment.
“This attack can probably kill high-level elite beasts.”
Chen Fan muttered to himself, and then walked forward.
One step, two steps, three steps…
More than ten steps later, seeing that most of the distance of tens of meters was gone, there was still no movement at all from the God Tree.
Just when Chen Fan took the next step,
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”
Hundreds of tree roots as thick as thighs broke out of the ground at the same time, with a strange red color at the tips of the roots.
This time, their speed was two or three times faster than the previous time. Almost as soon as they broke out of the ground, they were in front of Chen Fan, his back, head, arms, thighs, soles, etc.
“Dang, Dang, Dang!”
A series of impact sounds were made, and sparks flew everywhere!
What Chen Fan didn't expect was that the hundreds of tree roots that appeared this time were actually very tough. When they hit the golden bell, they were only repelled but not shattered.
And the next second it is knocked back, it will come back.
Like a living creature.
Chen Fan directly activated the counter-shock active skill.
A white light flashed across his body.
“Click!”
Dozens of crisp sounds.
Only dozens of tree roots were seen, which were directly broken into several pieces.
But the next moment, the broken part grew again and stabbed hard.
"snort."
Chen Fan had a sneer on his lips.
Wage a war of attrition with him?
Then he will stay with him until the end and see whether his true energy is depleted faster or the roots of the sacred tree are depleted faster.
“Dang, Dang, Dang!”
Hundreds of tree roots are waving in the air, like a wild demon dancing wildly.
Chen Fan remained motionless, like a rock, letting the waves beat against him.
After a full minute of waving, more than a hundred tree roots on the ground shrank into the ground at the same time, as if in tacit agreement, and the broken parts also disappeared into the open space.
As if everything that just happened was just an illusion.
“Is it gone?”
Chen Fan looked around.
I have to say, this tree is really clean with its hands and feet.
It makes people wonder, is it as intelligent as the leader-level ferocious beast?
“It feels very possible.”
Chen Fan thought for a while.
With an attack of that magnitude just now, even if it were the most powerful elite-level ferocious beast, he would definitely die.
But its destructive power has not yet reached the level of a leader-level ferocious beast.
At least, he hasn’t used all his strength yet.
“Will this tree still have some strength left?”
Chen Fan looked at the God Tree.
Feeling, it’s very possible.
While it was still early, he continued walking forward.
Twenty meters, fifteen meters, ten meters…
As I was about to reach the tree, there was nothing unusual around me.
Everything seemed so calm.
“Something’s wrong.”
Chen Fan narrowed his eyes.
This guy must be holding back some big move.
Step by step, he had arrived in front of the tree trunk, but still, he was not attacked.
Chen Fan raised his head and his eyes fell on the nearest God Fruit.
This **** fruit seemed to be ripe, it was red and exuded a fragrance, which made him want to get closer involuntarily.
“Wrong.”
Chen Fan's pupils narrowed slightly.
There seems to be something wrong with this fragrance. It seems to be able to affect people's spirits.
"Yes."
Chen Fan had a smile on his face.
Meng Xue once said that it is not an easy task to pick off the God Fruit.
The God Tree can use the God Fruit as a medium to influence people's spirits and even cause hallucinations. In this case, it will launch a sneak attack.
Unless you have strong mental strength, you will easily capsize in the gutter.
“So, does it want to wait until I’m picking the God Fruit before it takes action?”
Chen Fan thought in his heart.
If he guessed correctly, the intensity of this attack would also be the strongest, right?
If you don’t pick it, you can naturally avoid all this, but isn’t he here just for the God Fruit?
Before they are reunited, this tree will clean up the battlefield. It is clear that it has wisdom.
This is a conspiracy.
“Just in case, let’s keep this suspense.”
Chen Fan stopped.
He is very confident in his own mental power and will not easily fall into the opponent's illusion. Even if he does fall into the illusion, with all his strength, his defense is comparable to that of a high-ranking commander-level ferocious beast. This divine tree may not be able to defeat him. How about it.
What he is worried about is that
It will still be some time before the Tianshen Fruit matures.
If he goes up rashly, the sacred tree will find out that it can't do anything to him, and will it make some small moves.
For example, deliberately delaying the ripening time of the God Fruit, driving it away, or simply destroying the fruit.
At first glance, this seems incredible.
A tree can think of so many things? It's not human.
Think about it carefully, isn’t this God Fruit a bait released by the God Tree to attract prey?
Then the prey is too powerful, and as a hunter, it is normal for a hunter to stop losses in time.
Therefore, for the sake of caution, Chen Fan still did not intend to pierce the window paper. He moved and reappeared outside the open space. He glanced at the time and saw that there were still fifteen minutes left.
"fifteen minutes."
Chen Fan looked around.
Hopefully, no one will come to disturb the situation.
