Different small worlds often had their own specialties. The Rising Dragon Vine and Rising Dragon Fruit could be considered as one of the specialties of this small world.
Of course, it was not only this small world that had Rising Dragon Vines and Rising Dragon Fruits, it was just that most worlds did not have them.
There were countless Ascending Dragon Vines, and they were extremely wide. People searching for the Ascending Dragon Fruit were like diligent ants. Chu Mu searched carefully, using his sword to push aside the leaves of the Ascending Dragon Vines. This way, he could find the Ascending Dragon Fruit better, or else he would be easily confused.
On a Rising Dragon Vine, there were countless vines crisscrossing. Like the one Chu Mu was looking for, the thickest vine was as thick as a bucket, and was the main trunk. There were hundreds of branches, densely intertwined. It was very complicated, and the Rising Dragon Fruit could be growing in it, making it difficult to find.
After searching for half a day, not to mention finding the Rising Dragon Fruit, they could not even see the shadow of the Rising Dragon Fruit. However, Chu Mu's expression did not change, and he still looked very patient. Chu Zhong had searched for a long time before finding the Rising Dragon Fruit, and now it had only been half a day, so it was not a big deal.
However, it was a little depressing that the power of consciousness was ineffective. If it was not difficult to find, it would be easier.
"If the power of consciousness is ineffective, then what about the source of sword principles?" A light flashed in Chu Mu's mind, and he had a sudden realization.
Source and power of consciousness were two things that were not related, but in terms of level, source power was much superior to the power of consciousness.
Thinking of this, Chu Mu immediately communicated with the part of sword principles he had grasped. There was no need to stimulate the power, just release its aura.
The aura of sword principles spread out and fell on the Rising Dragon Vine, quickly spreading throughout the Rising Dragon Vine. Without finding the Rising Dragon Fruit, Chu Mu was not sure if it would work, but stimulating the aura of sword principles like this would not consume much of his power, and he could maintain it for a long time.
Not long after, Chu Mu's Sword Dao Origin aura adhered to the Ascending Dragon Vine and filled the entire vine. However, he didn't gain anything. This made Chu Mu a bit confused. Was there no Ascending Dragon Fruit, or was there a Ascending Dragon Fruit that he couldn't find?
Chu Mu decided to spend some time searching this Ascending Dragon Vine to see if there was any Ascending Dragon Fruit.
Three days. After spending three full days, Chu Mu and Chu Zhong finally finished examining the Ascending Dragon Vine. There was indeed no Ascending Dragon Fruit.
"Senior Brother Mu, let's go and find the other one." Chu Zhong said.
"Senior Brother Zhong, why don't we split up and search for one stalk each? It'll be faster that way," Chu Mu suggested.
"Very well." Chu Zhong did not suspect anything.
In fact, Chu Mu planned to try searching for the Sword Dao Origin's aura again.
They found another Ascending Dragon Vine, which was shorter and thinner than the previous one. Chu Mu's Sword Dao Origin's aura attached to it and quickly spread out. This method was more labor-saving and faster. In just a dozen breaths' time, Chu Mu had finished searching the Ascending Dragon Vine that would have taken him several days to search.
Suddenly, Chu Mu's eyes lit up. His figure moved and appeared at a corner of the Ascending Dragon Vine. Pushing aside the wide leaves, he saw a brown fruit. It was the Ascending Dragon Fruit.
He directly plucked the Ascending Dragon Fruit and looked at it a few times. After confirming that it was indeed the Ascending Dragon Fruit, he quickly put it into his spatial ring.
"Not bad, it seems that the Sword Dao Origin's aura can indeed find the Ascending Dragon Fruit." Chu Mu was overjoyed. This method was feasible. It would save him a lot of time and increase the efficiency of his search by several times.
Suddenly, an indistinct sense of danger appeared and exploded in Chu Mu's heart. A hissing sound made his scalp go numb. A brown lightning bolt flashed before his eyes.
Chu Mu's combat awareness, which had been tempered a thousand times, retreated one step and executed the second layer of the Four Directions Truth Seeking Steps. Then, he drew the Li Perishing Sword and counterattacked.
As a half-step Martial Emperor, Chu Mu's sword strike was incredibly accurate and powerful. When it struck the brown lightning bolt, there was a metallic clang. Chu Mu felt like his sword had struck something very hard. At the same time, there was a sharp and mournful cry.
Xiao Chen's wrist trembled, and the sword became sharp. A sword light shot out, and with the Li Perishing Sword's Extreme Sharpness, he forcefully chopped the brown lightning bolt in half.
Sizzling sounds could be heard as wisps of green smoke filled the air, bringing with them a foul stench.
Chu Mu lowered his head and looked. He saw that the thing he chopped in half was a small snake as thick as a finger and as long as a chopstick. The source of the foul stench was the dark-green blood.
"This must be the vine snake that Senior Brother Chu Zhong mentioned. Its toxicity is indeed astonishing." Chu Mu thought to himself. Just smelling the foul stench of the blood made him feel dizzy and nauseous. If he was bitten, he would probably feel very uncomfortable.
Since the aura of the Origin Energy could replace his eyes to search for the Ascending Dragon Fruit faster, Chu Mu made full use of it. This was an advantage that others did not have.
Actually, when he thought about it, it was not a big deal. The Ascending Dragon Fruit was indeed a rare treasure. However, it was only useful to those below the Martial Emperor Realm. The Martial Emperor Realm involved the power of the soul, which surpassed mental energy. Thus, the Ascending Dragon Fruit was useless.
The Origin Energy belonged to the Sovereign Realm. It was a kind of energy that surpassed the Martial Emperor Realm. Naturally, it was not difficult for him to search for the Ascending Dragon Fruit. Only now did Chu Mu understand this point.
With the Origin Energy of the Sword Dao as a cheat, Chu Mu's efficiency surpassed others by hundreds or thousands of times. Soon, he finished searching for the third Ascending Dragon Vine. Then, he searched for the fourth.
However, there were too few Ascending Dragon Vines that bore fruit. Or perhaps, in these few years, most of them had already been plucked.
In the blink of an eye, another few days passed.
Chu Mu did not find anything on a Ascending Dragon Vine that was over a hundred thousand meters long. Instead, he found a Ascending Dragon Fruit on a Ascending Dragon Vine that was over a hundred meters long. This made him realize that the growth of the Ascending Dragon Fruit had nothing to do with the size of the Ascending Dragon Vine.
Chu Zhong still did not find anything, while Chu Mu had already obtained two Ascending Dragon Fruits. However, he did not tell Chu Zhong. There was no need for him to do so for the time being.
While searching for the Ascending Dragon Fruit, Chu Mu also encountered several attacks from rattan snakes. The rattan snakes' venom was shocking, but as long as one was prepared, even a Supreme Martial Saint could resist and kill them.
In the blink of an eye, another few days passed.
"Senior Martial Brother Mu, did you find anything?" After searching for a while, Chu Zhong met Chu Mu. He asked, "My luck is not bad. I found another Ascending Dragon Fruit."
In total, Chu Zhong had found two Ascending Dragon Fruits. This kind of harvest could be considered to be very good.
"Yes, my luck is good. I found two," Chu Mu said.
"Congratulations, Senior Martial Brother Mu. Not only is your talent outstanding, but your luck is also outstanding," Chu Zhong said happily.
After chatting for a while, the two of them went back to their own search.
Chu Mu was able to find the Ascending Dragon Fruit with the help of the Sword Way Origin Qi. That was why he could be so fast. On the other hand, Chu Zhong was able to find the Ascending Dragon Fruit with his eyes. To be able to find one in these few days, he could be considered to be very lucky. Of course, this was also due to the influence of Chu Mu's luck.
All peerless geniuses and geniuses would have greater luck than ordinary people. They were the so-called people with great fortune. If one stayed with such people, one would be influenced imperceptibly. Under the influence of such people, one's luck would also improve.
Of course, this influence was not absolute. Furthermore, it was only temporary. Once one left, one would return to their original state.
Chu Zhong's own luck could only be considered average. However, after traveling with Chu Mu, he began to be affected by his luck and slowly improved. Naturally, his luck also became better.
Soon, Chu Mu found the third Ascending Dragon Fruit. No, it should be the third and fourth because these two fruits grew together.
"Friend, this Ascending Dragon Vine is ours. Please don't interfere." Chu Mu changed his target. When he was walking towards the next Ascending Dragon Vine, he was immediately stopped by someone.
The one who spoke was a half-step Great Emperor. The other two were Extreme Sage Venerables. Looking at their clothes, Chu Mu knew that they were disciples of Iron-Dragon Sect.
Chu Mu's purpose was to find Ascending Dragon Fruits. They were indeed searching for Ascending Dragon Vines. Therefore, Chu Mu didn't plan to compete with them. After all, he had the cheat of the aura of origin energy. He didn't need to compete with them.
Seeing Chu Mu walking to the other side, the three people of Iron-Dragon Sect revealed a satisfied smile and continued their search.
This was just a small interlude in the process of searching for Ascending Dragon Fruits.
In the blink of an eye, another two days had passed. Chu Mu found another Ascending Dragon Fruit. However, it was seen by one of the three disciples of Iron-Dragon Sect. He rapidly sent a secret message to the other two. The three of them then flashed and surrounded Chu Mu.
"Friend, that was a Ascending Dragon Fruit, right?" A Extreme Sage Venerable asked.
"Don't try to hide it. I've already seen it clearly. That was a Ascending Dragon Fruit." Another Extreme Sage Venerable added as if he was sure that Chu Mu would be defeated.
"How about this? Since you're not easy to find, hand over the Ascending Dragon Fruit. We won't make things difficult for you." The half-step Great Emperor of Iron-Dragon Sect said.
Two of them were playing good cop and one was playing bad cop. They even felt that Chu Mu wouldn't be polite if he didn't hand over the Ascending Dragon Fruit. Their words were full of threats.
In their eyes, Lin Fan was just an insignificant cultivator in the fifth refining of the Unparalleled Realm. Perhaps, he was a genius. However, so what? He was at most a Little Sage Venerable. At most, he was a Great Sage Venerable. He was as weak as an ant in front of them. They could kill him with one palm strike.
Chu Mu felt a bit helpless. If his cultivation base was too low, he would be like a soft persimmon in the eyes of others. Actually, he didn't want to cause trouble because it wasn't necessary. However, this was how the world worked. If you didn't look for trouble, trouble would come to you.
