He ran out and soon, Sang Qingyun and the others hurried over. Their eyes lit up when they saw the purple fruits piled up in the hall.
Sang Qingyun picked one up and bit into it. He did not feel any danger and ate it in one go. He burped in satisfaction and looked comfortable. He sighed, "Good stuff, it really is a spirit fruit!"
Chu Li smiled as he watched. He was very satisfied with the Hall Leader of the Templar Sanctuary's righteousness and compassion. Sang Qingyun was obviously worried about letting other disciples test the effect, so it was better for him to try it himself.
At least his cultivation level was high. Even if he was poisoned, he had a higher chance of survival.
Chu Li did not expose him. He smiled, "How do you feel, Hall Leader Sang?"
Sang Qingyun squinted his eyes and sighed, "My body is full of energy, my body is getting stronger … Oh, it's so hot!"
He felt as if he had fallen into magma. His blood began to boil and he could even smell the burning smell from his hair. His flesh began to crack and he was about to fall apart.
Chu Li shook his head.
Sang Qingyun quickly used his inner energy to get rid of the pain. However, the more he tried, the worse the situation became. His blood boiled even more and he disappeared in a flash.
Chu Li and Hu Zongyuan saw Wan Ren shaking his head. They followed him and saw him soaking in a cold spring. His body was steaming like boiling water. The spring water around him became much warmer.
"This is a cold spring." Wan Ren shook his head and smiled, "It seems that Senior Sang is really hot."
Hu Zongyuan said, "Senior Sang, are you okay?"
"I won't die!" Sang Qingyun shouted.
His voice was like a bronze bell, spreading far and wide.
Chu Li said, "Hall Leader Sang, you ate too much. It seems that the power of one fruit is too strong."
"I can, I can!" Sang Qingyun said.
He felt that as the heat surged, he was rapidly becoming stronger. His meridians became wider and more resilient, and his inner energy became more pure and vigorous. It was different from ordinary elixirs, where one's inner energy became deeper but lost its purity. After eating this fruit, not only did his inner energy become deeper, but it also became purer. It was truly an anomaly. The more fruits like this, the better it would be. It could save him a lot of hard work.
Chu Li smiled, "If you can't take it, don't force yourself."
"Sect Master, don't worry." Sang Qingyun hurriedly said.
The heat around him continued to rise, and it was getting more and more intense. In the end, only a vast expanse of whiteness could be seen above the cold spring, and Sang Qingyun's appearance could not be seen clearly. He did not make a sound, only gritting his teeth and enduring in silence. The longer he endured, the stronger he became.
Chu Li could see that he was on the verge of collapsing, but he was holding on with all his might.
If someone of Sang Qingyun's strength had to endure like this, the average disciple would probably not be able to. It seemed that he had to take it slowly and not be too aggressive. Rushing for results could very well cost him his life.
After some time, Sang Qingyun jumped out of the cold spring with a bang. The entire cold spring had turned into a hot spring, and it was slightly hot to the touch. After Sang Qingyun landed on the ground, he gently shook his clothes and was in high spirits.
Wan Ren and the rest focused their senses and sensed that Sang Qingyun was like a completely different person. His aura was surging like a mountain, giving them immense pressure.
"Hehe …" Sang Qingyun couldn't help but laugh. "How about it?"
"What a powerful fruit!" Wan Ren sighed.
Hu Zongjian looked him up and down a few times before saying with a smile, "Senior Brother Sang, you didn't eat too much, did you?"
"No problem!" Sang Qingyun shook his head proudly and looked at Chu Li with a face full of smiles. "Sect Leader, it's really an amazing fruit. With this fruit, our Flying Heaven Sect is like a tiger that has grown wings!"
He then hesitated for a moment before asking, "Where did you pick this fruit from?"
"The arcane realm, the Tianfeng Sect's arcane realm." Chu Li replied.
He told them what happened. Not only did Sang Qingyun and the other two lose their excitement, but their expressions became solemn.
Just this purple fruit alone could make people so powerful. If the Tianfeng Sect had the entire arcane realm, how powerful would they be? Just thinking about it was scary. What was even scarier was that the Tianfeng Sect would definitely come to destroy them. They were their mortal enemies!
Chu Li said, "Let's focus on what's in front of us first. Whatever strength we can get, it's better than nothing."
The three of them struggled to raise their spirits and slowly nodded.
No matter what, whatever strength they could get, it was better than nothing. At least they would have a higher chance of escaping. No matter how powerful the Tianfeng Sect was, they would not be able to fight back if they did not grow stronger.
The four of them teleported back to the Sect Leader's basilica. Hu Tianlai was guarding there. There were already two men and two women standing in the basilica. The men were handsome while the women were beautiful. They stood there quietly.
When they saw Chu Li and the others, the four of them fist saluted.
Chu Li looked at Hu Tianlai.
Hu Tianlai said, "I have already said that they are willing to test the medicine."
Chu Li looked at the four of them.
The handsome young man on the far left fist saluted and said, "Sect Leader, we will not refuse!"
Chu Li nodded gently and smiled. "With me here, your lives will not be in danger. Don't worry and try it."
"Yes." The four of them said in a low voice.
Chu Li said, "Sect Leader Hu, give each of them a fruit."
The effects of the purple fruit only strengthened their bodies and inner energy. There were no other abnormalities. Even if there were any abnormalities, it would not be a problem with him around.
"Yes." Hu Tianlai fist saluted and turned to take out four purple fruits from the basilica for the four of them. They took it and ate it without hesitation. They finished it in a few bites and did not even leave the seeds behind.
"Sit down and circulate your energy." Chu Li said.
The four of them sat cross-legged on the steps and closed their eyes to circulate their energy. In the blink of an eye, white steam evaporated. Sang Qingyun stared at them without blinking, afraid that he would miss the chance to save them.
He could understand what the four of them were feeling. It was as if they were immersed in lava. It was so hot that they had nowhere to escape.
Chu Li stared at the four of them and used the Omniscient Mirror to observe the minute changes in their bodies. They were getting stronger bit by bit. As their meridians expanded, their inner energy also changed. The spiritual energy of the fruit was very strange. It was similar to the aura of his Holy Spirit Scripture.
About two hours later, the four of them slowly opened their eyes. A cold light flashed in their eyes, but they soon recovered their gentleness and calmness. Their cultivations had increased by a large amount, stepping into another level. Moreover, they were calm and gentle, without the slightest sign of losing control of their cultivation.
Chu Li nodded in satisfaction. The effects of the purple fruit were still there. It was just that it had melted into their flesh and was released bit by bit. It would slowly strengthen them. Compared to releasing it completely in Sang Qingyun's body, the effect might be weaker, but it was gentler.
From the looks of it, the higher the cultivation level of the person who consumed the purple fruit, the greater the increase and the more pain they would feel.
"Great!" Hu Tianlai was overjoyed.
They could clearly feel the changes in the four of them.
"This is equivalent to ten years of their cultivation!" Wan Ren said.
Sang Qingyun nodded. "And there are no side effects. Not bad, not bad!"
He had been feeling it carefully. There was no discomfort from the sudden increase in energy. His body was light and he could control it freely. It was as if all of this was his own cultivation. The purple fruit only condensed time and sped it up.
Chu Li muttered, "Alright then, one for each of us then."
"One for each?" Sang Qingyun and the others frowned.
"Isn't that a little too extravagant?" Hu Tianlai said, "Sect Leader, why don't we let the Templar Demon Guards take it first? We can take the rest when we have merit."
