Flaming Heart Fruit
The mine was very close to Chu Town, only about ten miles away.
When Chu Xingyun arrived at the cave, more than ten attendants of the Chu Family had been waiting for a long time. They bowed to Chu Xingyun one after another.
Ever since Chu Xingyun became the head of the Chu Family, the Chu Family swept away its decline and began to flourish.
Putting aside the matter of the mining of spiritual materials, just the cooperation with the Hundred Treasures Building was enough to make many families take the initiative to express their goodwill. The transactions were naturally smooth, and they earned a lot of wealth.
Chu Xingyun did not embezzle the wealth. Instead, he put it all into the clan's treasury, either to purchase cultivation resources or to repair Chu Town. This caused the people of the Chu family to be shocked, and they also completely approved of Chu Xingyun.
These attendants were all personally selected by Chu Tiger. They were not weak and could be completely trusted. They could already be considered as the mainstay of the Chu Family.
"You guys stay here and guard. No one is allowed to take half a step into the cave," Chu Xingyun said. Then, he led Chu Tiger into the cave.
As soon as he entered the cave, Chu Xingyun felt a wave of heat hit his face. On the hard mountain wall, red crystals of different sizes were embedded. They were Fire Spirit Stones.
Looking ahead, the deeper into the cave, the more Fire Spirit Stones there were. But on the other hand, in the depths of the cave, he could already vaguely see a thick fog. It was condensed and did not dissipate, making the entire cave seem a little strange.
"It really is the Flaming Heart Fruit!" Chu Xingyun was overjoyed. He took out two elixirs from his storage ring, one for himself and the other for Chu Tiger.
"What kind of elixir is this?" Chu Tiger took the elixir and asked Chu Xingyun.
"Mind-clearing Elixir." Chu Xingyun casually answered, but it made Chu Tiger's gaze become sluggish. His hands, which were holding the Mind-clearing Elixir, involuntarily trembled.
As soon as the Clear Heart Pill was mentioned, there was no one in West Wind City who did not know about it.
Even though this pill was ranked at the second grade, it was capable of eliminating one's inner demons and stabilizing one's mind after consumption. It possessed an unparalleled effect towards closed door cultivation or breaking through one's cultivation.
The Clear Heart Pill that the Hundred Treasures Pavilion had just started selling was sold out in just a few hours, and the price was forcefully raised from the original 8,000 to 16,000, doubling the original price.
Even so, the supply of Mind-clearing Pills still could not meet the demand. Countless people racked their brains trying to buy one.
Looking at the Clear Heart Pill in his hand, Tiger Chu suddenly couldn't bear it. Swallowing this pill was equivalent to swallowing sixteen thousand taels into his stomach. It was too extravagant. Even those wealthy clans wouldn't dare to be so casual.
Actually, Tiger Chu didn't know that the pill formula for the Clear Heart Pill was originally given to Qin Shan by Chu Xingyun. After Qin Shan gave the pill formula to Qin Yuyan, the Hundred Treasures Building started researching and refining it.
The effects of the Clear Heart Pill on the market were very poor. It was only a pitiful thirty percent, and the highest was not more than fifty percent.
However, the Clear Heart Pill in Tiger Chu's hand was personally refined by Chu Xingyun. Its effects had reached the level of perfection. It was no exaggeration to say that this pill was equivalent to three pills in the outside world.
"What are you still standing there for?" Chu Xingyun turned to look at Chu Hu and said, "This fog will make your spiritual energy go berserk. After taking the Mind Cleansing Pill, it will stabilize your spiritual energy. Hurry up and take it to avoid any mishaps."
Hearing Chu Xingyun's urging, Tiger Chu bitterly nodded his head. He took a deep breath and consumed the Clear Heart Pill with some heartache.
Although his heartache was heartache, after consuming the Clear Heart Pill, Tiger Chu felt that his mind was much calmer. His Spiritual Energy was no longer violent, and even the influence of the heat was much smaller.
The two of them continued to move forward. As they went deeper into the cave, the path became more and more curved. Countless Fire Spiritual Stones were embedded on the mountain walls, and their quality was very high. This made Tiger Chu smile from ear to ear, and his eyes shone.
As for Chu Xingyun, a faint smile also appeared on his face. However, what he cared about was not the Fire Spiritual Stones.
Not long after, the two of them arrived at the end of the cave.
This was a wide, flat area with walls on three sides. Fire Spiritual Stones were practically everywhere on the mountain walls. They flickered with a red light as if they were burning in a raging fire. It was a spectacular sight.
Chu Xingyun did not care about the Fire Spiritual Stones. His gaze fell on the center of the flat area. There was actually a strangely shaped ancient tree growing there. On the tree, there were dozens of half-green, half-red fruits.
"There are actually trees in such a deep cave. This is really rare." Tiger Chu also looked at the ancient tree. Just as he took a step forward, he felt the Spiritual Energy in his body become violent, as if it was about to burst out of his body.
Chu Xingyun reacted quickly and pulled Tiger Chu back. At this moment, Tiger Chu's entire body was soaked in sweat, and he was panting heavily. He had just recovered from the shock.
"Young Master, how did this happen?" Tiger Chu pointed at the ancient tree in front of them with his eyes wide open.
"This ancient tree is called the Flaming Heart Tree. It is very rare and can only grow in places where it is difficult to endure the heat. When the Flaming Heart Tree blossoms and bears fruit, it will emit a fog. When this fog is absorbed into the body, it will cause the Spiritual Energy to become violent. In serious cases, it can even cause the body to explode and die."
Chu Xingyun's words made Tiger Chu shudder. He didn't need to explain. He knew that this fog was the strange fog that had shrouded the entire cave.
The reason why he was like this just now was most likely because he had absorbed too much fog, causing his Spiritual Energy to become violent.
If Chu Xingyun had not pulled him back in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
"With such a terrifying Demon Tree, it seems like this Fire Spirit Stone Vein is going to be ruined." Tiger Chu sighed helplessly.
"The fog of the Flaming Heart Tree mainly comes from the Flaming Heart Fruit. When the Flaming Heart Fruit ripens, the fog will also dissipate. Moreover, this kind of Spirit Fruit is a Level 3 Spiritual Ingredient. As long as a Body Tempering Realm martial artist consumes it, they can directly break through and advance to the next level without any side effects." Chu Xingyun's eyes flashed as he looked at the Flaming Heart Fruit.
"A Level 3 Spiritual Ingredient that can directly break through?" Tiger Chu inhaled a breath of cold air.
After he awakened Wu Ling, he knew how difficult it was to cultivate. Even in the Body Tempering Realm, every advancement to the next level required a long period of bitter cultivation without any slack.
Just now, Chu Xingyun actually said that these strange-looking fruits could actually allow a Body Tempering Realm martial artist to directly break through. This simply overturned Tiger Chu's understanding.
After consuming a Flaming Heart Fruit, one could easily break through to the next level.
There were more than ten Flaming Heart Fruits on the Flaming Heart Tree in front of him. If he consumed all of them, wouldn't he be able to step into the Spirit Gathering Realm in a short period of time?
Perhaps Chu Xingyun had guessed what Tiger Chu was thinking, he rolled his eyes and explained, "Although the Flaming Heart Fruit is special, there are also limitations. After consuming one, the effects will become negligible if you continue to consume more."
"Other than that, these Flaming Heart Fruits have not ripened yet. You have to wait for another ten years before you can pluck them and consume them. Before that, the Flaming Heart Fruits do not have any effects and are no different from ordinary fruits."
