Chapter 272: Chapter 271 Xu Jing Asks for Help

What is this?

Looking at the scene before him, Zhang Xiaoshan was utterly astonished.

Its root system was extremely well-developed; dozens of main roots were even thicker than Zhang Xiaoshan’s arms, their lengths impossible to determine, and each of these main roots branched off into hundreds more.

The towering tree seemed to be the origin of the entire Golden Silver Flower Sea.

Zhang Xiaoshan inspected the towering tree closely with his Heavenly Dragon’s Eye.

"Species: Golden and Silver Flower Tree King."

"Age: Over two hundred years."

"Formation: This place has unique geographical features, naturally forming a Gathering Spirit Array, with ample Spiritual Energy promoting the mutation of the small tree. Additionally, it seems that the tree’s root system is nourished by Spiritual Liquid."

"Spiritual Liquid?"

Zhang Xiaoshan was extremely surprised.

Dragon Girl Susu once mentioned that deep in the mountains behind, there could very well be a Spirit Vein. At this moment, the fact that the Gold and Silver Flower Tree King could be nourished by Spiritual Liquid implied that Susu’s speculation was likely true.

"Could it be that at the end of this great tree’s roots lies the Spirit Vein?"

Considering this possibility, Zhang Xiaoshan became thrilled.

Nowadays, the Spiritual Energy on Earth is thin, which makes Cultivation proceed very slowly. But if one could access a Spirit Vein, it would be tantamount to possessing an inexhaustible Cultivation resource.

This was nothing short of a shocking treasure to him, who had only recently set foot on the path of Cultivation.

His gaze continued to roam over the Gold and Silver Flower Tree King before him.

Soon, he locked onto a fruit the size of a fist.

The fruit’s appearance was somewhat similar to an apple but had two colors; one side was golden yellow while the other was silver-white.

Relevant information once again appeared before his eyes.

"Gold and Silver Fruit."

"The Golden Silver Flower Tree naturally blooms without bearing fruit, but this great tree has absorbed Spiritual Liquid and the essence of sun and moonlight. It has mutated and, over many years, has borne Gold and Silver Fruit."

"Effects: Can quickly revive someone who is unconscious, neutralize toxins in the poisoned, a single Gold and Silver Fruit’s medicinal effect is equal to a hundred catties of Gold and Silver Flowers and is more easily absorbed by humans."

"In particular, the energy contained within has a minor effect of prolonging life, truly rare."

After learning this information, Zhang Xiaoshan was overjoyed.

"Neutralizes all toxins, prolongs life?"

"I never thought I’d encounter such a treasure."

His gaze swept across the tree once more.

"Oh."

Soon, he noticed something unusual. On the tree trunk, there were also speckled traces of damage, and many leaves had fallen off.

Most critically, many of the fruits were missing.

"It must have been the Red Training Snake King."

"That thing is using these Gold and Silver Fruits to heal itself."

"Such fine things, all spoiled by that beast."

"I can’t let it take advantage."

Zhang Xiaoshan immediately began to act.

Having carefully searched the tree, he found a total of ten fruits.

"What a pity, most have been eaten by that beast, but these should still fetch a good price, right?"

"Looks like I’ll have enough to purchase the Wang family’s properties, maybe even have some surplus."

Zhang Xiaoshan collected the Gold and Silver Fruits.

By now, the sun had already sloped westward.

"That’s about it. With these Gold and Silver Fruits, this trip hasn’t been in vain."

After packing his backpack, Zhang Xiaoshan quickly left the flower sea, heading in the direction of the mountain exit.

"Hiss hiss hiss."

Just as Zhang Xiaoshan’s figure disappeared from the cliff above the Flower Sea, a colossal red head emerged within the Flower Sea. It was none other than the Red Training Snake King, which had been gravely injured and was hiding here to heal. Now, only half of its head was left.

What was surprising was that not only was its injury fully healed, but its size had also grown significantly. Even more troubling was that its forehead’s flesh crown had now solidified, resembling a dagger more than a foot long.

Its strength had at least doubled since before.

That day, its head had been smashed by Zhang Xiaoshan, but it played dead and narrowly escaped. After fleeing in a wretched state, it encountered the highly efficacious Gold and Silver Tree King by sheer luck. During this time, it devoured over a hundred Gold and Silver Fruits, reaping tremendous benefits.

At this moment, as it looked in the direction Zhang Xiaoshan had left, its eyes were filled with resentment.

It was already brewing vengeance.

...

At the mountain pass behind White Dragon Village.

By this time, the sun had completely set, and the sky was very dark.

"It’s so late; he hasn’t come out yet. He hasn’t run into some trouble, has he?"

Sitting among the shrubs, waiting to catch an adulterer, Xu Jing hadn’t seen Zhang Xiaoshan emerge and began to worry.

Although she had only been in White Dragon Village for a few days, several parents had already warned her that there were many wild animals in the mountains behind and to never get close.

"Should I go to the village to ask for help?"

Just as Xu Jing was about to leave.

"Thump thump thump."

"Swish swish swish."

From inside the mountain pass, the sound of rapid footsteps and the swishing of trees could be heard.

Soon, a figure burst out.

"That scared me to death."

Seeing Zhang Xiaoshan appear, Xu Jing quietly breathed a sigh of relief and once again concealed herself.

"It’s so late, I wonder if my sister-in-law has noticed I’m not in the health room."

Zhang Xiaoshan looked at the dim sky, eager to get home.

"Ah."

Just then, a scream came from behind him.

Zhang Xiaoshan was startled and quickly turned to look.

He saw Xu Jing rushing out from the shrubs.

"Mr. Xu, you..."

Before Zhang Xiaoshan could finish, Xu Jing ran towards him frantically, screaming non-stop.

"Help, help! "

After two steps, she suddenly fell to the ground.
