She carefully felt the changes in her body.
There did not seem to be any changes. Her inner energy did not increase and her body did not become stronger. It was not as magical as she had imagined.
However, there seemed to be a slight change. Her body felt light and spirited. She felt better than before. The world in front of her had become more lovely. She wanted to howl at the sky to express her joy and emotions.
Looking at everything in front of her, she felt inexplicably happy and touched. It was as if she had been reborn.
She turned to look at Chu Li and hesitated. "It can't be increasing my lifespan, right?"
As a disciple of Taihao Peak, she was knowledgeable. After experiencing this strange change, she quickly thought of all kinds of possibilities. In the end, she fell on the thing that she had been suppressing the most.
Chu Li smiled and nodded. "Yes, lifespan."
Fu Caiwei stretched her body and felt the surging impulse. The corners of her eyes were already wet. She would only know how precious it was after losing it. She made the decision without hesitation. In order to kill Song Wuji, she was willing to give up everything.
She really lost her lifespan and only had ten years left to live. She woke up countless times at night and asked herself if it was worth it. Her initial determination gradually loosened. Looking at the lovely and wonderful world around her, ten years was too short. She wished she could live for ten thousand years.
Unfortunately, time could not be turned back. She could not make up for her initial decision.
Her hand inadvertently swept past the corner of her eyes and quickly wiped away her tears. "I've tried the Life Extension Pill before but it didn't work. What is this? How can it have such a miraculous effect?"
The Dream of the Blooming Cereus that she cultivated was too strange and overbearing. The lost lifespan could not be replenished. Even the Life Extension Pill could not do anything. She could not feel anything when she consumed it as it was swallowed by the Dream of the Blooming Cereus.
She felt as if she was cursed. She only had ten years of lifespan and it was useless to struggle.
However, this inconspicuous green fruit broke the curse and could actually replenish her lifespan. There was always a way!
Chu Li looked at her graceful body and beautiful face. This was indeed the masterpiece of God Zhong Xiu. It was too cruel to live for only ten years. The green fruit was really effective and made him happy. He chuckled and said, "I don't know what this is either. I named it the green fruit because it can increase one's lifespan by ten years."
"Ten years is already very good." Fu Caiwei smiled sweetly.
Her smile was bright and dazzling. Chu Li found it hard to open his eyes and look at her directly.
Fu Caiwei leaped lightly and performed a graceful dance in the air. She landed gracefully and silently like a falling flower. "Even if it's only a year, it's still extremely rare."
The closer they were to death, the more they felt the preciousness of life and lifespan.
Chu Li smiled. "Give me a moment."
He disappeared from where he stood.
Fu Caiwei touched her face and felt that it must be flushed with excitement. Her full chest rose and fell violently several times. After taking a few deep breaths, she suppressed her overly excited thoughts and slowly calmed down.
A moment later, Chu Li reappeared with a red sandalwood box in his hand. It was about a foot square and was engraved with intricate patterns. Under the sunlight, it shone with a luxurious aura.
Chu Li placed the red sandalwood box on the table and opened it. Inside, there were three green fruits wrapped in a soft yellow cloth. The fruits looked as if they were carved out of jade. They complemented the red sandalwood box and the bright yellow cotton cloth, making them look even more dazzling.
As soon as she saw the three green fruits, Fu Caiwei's gradually calming thoughts became excited again. She raised her head and looked at Chu Li.
It was already a great fortune to have one of these rare fruits. Now that he had taken out four of them, it was unimaginable. She was even a little afraid. Would such luck befall her?
Chu Li raised his hand and smiled. "Eat four first and see the effect."
"This …" Fu Caiwei hesitated.
Chu Li said, "Four should be the limit. If not, you won't be able to bear it. It's still a burden on your body."
"Then I'll really eat them?" Fu Caiwei asked.
She could not wait and wanted to swallow them all in one bite to avoid any complications. If someone stole one of these green fruits, she would really go crazy and would not be able to accept it.
Chu Li smiled. "Try it and see. It's really effective. There's more."
Fu Caiwei stared at the green fruits. Her eyes were shining. After hearing Chu Li's words, she did not care about being polite anymore. She reached out and took one. In the blink of an eye, she finished it. Then, she ate the second one and the third one.
She ate all three green fruits in one go. Her body seemed to be glowing and gradually became illusory. She entered the illusory state of the Epiphyllum's Dream. She was faintly discernible as if she could merge with the void at any time.
Chu Li used the Omniscient Mirror to observe her. When he saw her like this, he nodded in satisfaction. It seemed that the green fruits had not reached their limit. What was more amazing was that he faintly felt that these green fruits did not weaken because they had been consumed before.
One fruit increased one's lifespan by ten years, two would be twenty years, and four would be forty years. Fu Caiwei had indeed increased her lifespan by forty years. Although this was only his vague intuition, it should not be wrong.
Fu Caiwei also had a clear feeling.
After cultivating the Epiphyllum's Dream, she had a very clear sense of her lifespan. It was a kind of torture. She could clearly feel that with each passing day, her lifespan was reduced by one day. It was worse than being ignorant.
At this moment, she felt the sudden increase in her lifespan. She was ecstatic and pounced on Chu Li.
Chu Li shrunk and avoided her.
Although Fu Caiwei was in an illusory state and ignored the distance between them, Chu Li still managed to avoid her. She was surprised and sobered up. She suppressed the urge to hug him and sighed. "Chu Li, I really don't know what to say."
Chu Li smiled. "Senior Sister Fu, you don't have to be so polite. You can only consume these green fruits now. I'll get more for you in the future. I can't let you die so easily."
"Alright, my life is in your hands." Fu Caiwei smiled brightly.
Chu Li looked into her bright eyes and felt a sense of intoxication. He quickly reminded himself not to get emotional and smiled. "Senior Sister Fu, I'm here to ask for your help."
"Speak." Fu Caiwei returned to her original form and walked out of the illusory state. She became lively and sat in front of him. Her body exuded a faint fragrance. It was a fragrance that came naturally from her body.
Chu Li said, "I want to know where you and Sui Miaozhu obtained the Heart Cleansing Cauldron."
"You want to explore there?" Fu Caiwei asked. "Do you think there's something we've missed?"
Chu Li did not hide it and nodded.
Fu Caiwei poured a glass of wine and passed it to him. "You should just give up."
Chu Li took the jade glass and took a sip. "Why do you think so?"
"After we obtained the Heart Cleansing Cauldron and the Spirit Cultivation Technique, the cave collapsed and disappeared completely." Fu Caiwei took a sip of the wine and her face instantly blushed.
She had a peerless martial art and a strong body. She was still slightly tipsy after taking a sip because it was a secret spirit wine.
Chu Li had eaten a lot of spirit herbs and fruits, so the feeling was not as strong. He took another sip. "There's no trace left?"
"If that's the case, you're definitely not giving up. I'll bring you to have a look." Fu Caiwei finished the jade glass in one gulp. Her face was instantly flushed and her eyes were sparkling.
