Chapter 1107: Refine the Fruit Tree
Translator: Sigma_ Editor: SSins
A blue lightning strike flashed above a dark, wet swamp and disappeared in just a blink of an eye.
Shang Ying Yue ran rapidly. He didn't dare to stand there because she knew that there was no use lingering. Although she was arrogant, she knew that she wasn't equal to the four warriors of the Bai family. There was a need to mention that mysterious Mia.
Wu Bai and Wu Feng shot out energy like an ignited powder keg. A flame burned in their eyes as they left the place.
Mia stood by the place where the Brilliant Star Fruit Tree used to emerge looking at the bottomless pit. Her beautiful face was so cold as if it had a layer of frost. She flung her arms and said directly,
"From this center spot, scatter and pursue them. That brat has only First Sky of Ethereal God Realm. Any of you can kill him when you see him.
"
The three warriors of the Bai family seemed to have ignored Mia's instructions. They only looked at Bai Hao.
Bai Hao nodded and blinked at the three of them. He said faintly,
"Go after them.
"
The four shadows shot out like four rainbows to four different directions. In just a blink, they were out of sight.
After everyone had left, Mia's eyes looked puzzled. She mumbled to herself as if something had disturbed her mind.
------------------------
As soon as Shang Ying Yue had left the besiege of the Bai family's warrior, she disappeared. She used her special device to conceal her body and aura. Hiding inside a light case, she moved in a direction by herself.
All of a sudden, she found that this light cage was spacious. She couldn't help but think about the beautiful moment that had just happened inside the light cage...
Something strange flashed in her eyes, but she quieted her mind quickly. The corners of her mouth curved coldly and resentfully. While her straight thighs moved, she had traveled a long distance.
When she thought that she should be pretty far away from the Bai family's warriors, she hesitated for a while before retrieving the light cage. Her beautiful figure reappeared, standing under the shade of a big tree and waiting for something.
One hour later.
A muscular man sauntered toward her with a cold face. He reached where she was but kept silent.
"You dare to come?
" Shang Ying Yue bit her lower lips and said angrily.
She knew that Shi Yan could recognize life energy fluctuation within a specific area and this place was the location where they had agreed to meet. She came here and put away her invisible light cage to demand an explanation from Shi Yan.
However, she wasn't so sure that Shi Yan would show himself.
"Why wouldn't I come?
"
Shi Yan was holding the Brilliant Star Fruit Tree in his left hand. That exotic fruit tree radiated silver starlight, which looked like fireflies falling on his arm. It made it a drawing of starlight with fulgent sparkling.
"You should understand that if you hadn't struck me out of the protection, we wouldn't have been exposed. As long as we didn't get seen, I could have helped you attack the Bai family after the Bai family's warriors and the Wu brothers finished their battle. Too bad... you ruined everything.
"
"I ruined everything?
"
Green veins bulged on Shang Ying Yue's forehead. She couldn't help but shout,
"If you hadn't harassed me, would I have struck you? If I didn't push you out, who knows what else you would have done?
"
While screaming, she couldn't help but remember the scene she saw when she stooped her head and caught a glimpse of his surging lower body. She grimaced as she knew that Shi Yan was just pretending to be calm.
"It was unexpected.
"
Without being embarrassed or ashamed, Shi Yan said harshly.
"Who f*cking would have known that your light case couldn't stand the shockwaves that badly? Alright, it stops right here!
"
Then, he turned around and left, leaving her a cold utterance.
"There's no way to cooperate with you. We shall terminate our agreement.
"
"You're despicable!
" Shang Ying Yue gasped for her breath and said indignantly,
"You got the Brilliant Star Fruit Tree. You seized the chance and got benefits. Now you turn your back to me. What kind of man are you?
"
"I will try my best to kill the Bai family's warriors. But I won't do it with you. About the Seven-colored Demonic Flower... I will take it on my own. You don't need to bother.
" Shi Yan's figure left far away and he didn't turn once to look at her. After his voice vanished, his body had disappeared completely.
Shang Ying Yue stood there for a long time with her cold face. She leaned against the tree and felt so bitter and resentful.
-------------------------
Several thousand meters under a swamp with thick mud, an area was burned which made a solid, dry cave.
Space barriers that could prevent Soul Consciousness detection and sounds were set up around that dry space. Shi Yan sat cross-legged and studied the Brilliant Star Fruit Tree in front of him.
The roots, trunks, branches, and leaves of the Brilliant Star Fruit Tree looked like they were made of beautiful green jade. It felt cool in his palm. The nine chestnut-sized fruits were sparkling like stars, releasing surging energy. Blue halos rippled, which were strong defenses to other people. If they took risks and touched the tree, they would be damaged.
However, those blue halos weren't so threatening to him because he cultivated Star power Upanishad.
The Brilliant Star Fruit Tree was the soul altar of an Incipient God Realm expert who cultivated Star power Upanishad. It fused with a life star after he died completely. After different experiences, it became this tree. It didn't have the soul or cognition, but the truth of Star power Upanishad.
The patterns on the branches, roots, leaves, and the fruits of that tree had lines like a star map. Vaguely, they were following something mysterious in the sea of stars...
Shi Yan placed one of his fingers on the root of that tree. Squinting, he spun his soul altar and focused his mind and soul on the Star power Upanishad.
Slowly, his finger glowed and released countless starlight dots. They were glowing like small bacteria congregating in the roots of the tree.
At that moment, his soul and Sea of Consciousness were connected to the tree. Wisps of his Soul Consciousness flowed like small streams coming to the vast sea. They swam in a sea filled with starlight.
Countless fine, twinkling lines of starlight weaved and combined with each other and created a map of the sea of stars. Some looked like bows and arrows and some looked like screaming beasts or spoons. Some even looked like horses with wings...
These images were constellations made of different stars in the galaxy. They held some meanings of Nature and they could connect to warriors who cultivated Star power Upanishad directly.
Shi Yan's Soul Consciousness flew in there and felt in silence...
Suddenly, his eyes brightened as he had grasped something...
The star map that looks like a spoon… wasn't it the Big Dipper with seven stars? From a distance, the Big Dipper did look like a spoon.
Shi Yan felt something blooming in his mind. He seemed to grasp something. He immersed himself into that gleam of recognition while his Soul Consciousness moved around the Brilliant Star Fruit Tree, searching in its roots or branches...
While his Soul Consciousness saw the mysteries of the tree, he was sinking and didn't recognize his condition. At the same time, one of the Brilliant Star Fruits was losing its brilliance and it shriveled as if the nutrients inside were drawn away.
He didn't know that his study of the mysteries of the Brilliant Star Fruit Tree required the massive energy inside the Brilliant Star Fruit.
Beams of starlight radiated from his body as the fruit was withering. It looked like he had billions of fireflies congregating at his body. They moved around and disappeared into his body in the end and turned into a beam of pure energy.
Time flew hurriedly.
After one fruit shriveled, another Brilliant Star Fruit bloomed with brilliance before its light was absorbed and taken away...
While he was studying the meanings of Star power Upanishad, his Soul Consciousness seemed to move around the vast universe with countless stars. He didn't recognize it, but the Brilliant Star Fruits were disappearing one by one. As their energy was used up, they had to return to Nature.
Shi Yan didn't know that. Under the swamp, he held the Brilliant Star Fruit Tree in his hand to comprehend the power Upanishad that was crucial to his life.
The Star power Upanishad was a strange power that was rare even in the Fountainhead of powers Upanishads. Also, it was the most difficult power to advance. However, this power of his was growing magnificently. It gave him unimaginable knowledge.
Staying in a small room, his body was filled with billions of starlight dots. If someone could see this, he would figure out that those starlight dots were actually forming stars of the vast sea of stars in the universe. It was a star map that was scaled several times smaller.
The Brilliant Star Fruit on the Brilliant Star Fruit Tree in his hand disappeared one by one. The branches and leaves were dried up and the roots were cracking. They all merged into the small-scaled universe and disappeared.
Shi Yan was immersed in the center of the universe. He sank into the marvelous sea of stars as if he was a rigid fossil that would remain still forever.
Time continued to fly.
The starlight in the sky all seeped into his body and circulated in his veins, bones, marrow, blood, and flesh. They moved to his Sea of Consciousness and jumped into his Ethereal Extent...
He stood still but his body was shivering as if something was quenching his blood and flesh. Dirty water oozed out of his pores and the roots of his hair eliminated specks of dirt. His hair became glossy and dazzling while his body was covered by the silky sheet of stars, and his bones the rigid jade.
This was a new transformation.
The great benefit that the Brilliant Star Fruit Tree brought him was the usage of the energy of the sea of stars to quench his body, bone, blood, flesh, and his soul. It gave an excellent tonic to every corner of his body.
However, he hadn't woken up yet. His mind and soul seemed to wander around the immense galaxy as if he couldn't find a way back. Right under the swamp, he had stood there for several years without knowing the situation of the world out there.
The Brilliant Star Fruit Tree was a peculiar Original Incipient Grade treasure. It was really hard to create one tree. To the warriors cultivating Star power, it was a priceless treasure that existed only in legends.
Shi Yan had refined the Brilliant Star Fruit Tree and absorbed its energy completely. He had understood the essence of his power Upanishad, which also increased his spirit, soul, and body to another level. He had broken the threshold from First Sky of Ethereal God Realm to Second Sky of Ethereal God Realm.
When he got up, he had reached Second Sky of Ethereal God Realm.
