Five Elements Mystic Spirit Tree and the Spirit Fruit Serpent

A few hundred meters away from him, at the shore of a small lake, two groups of cultivators were in the middle of an argument.

But if that were the only thing happening, Xue Bai wouldn\'t have cared much and would continue on his way after a quick double take. Instead, it was what was in the lake and the subject of their argument that grabbed Xue Bai\'s attention.

Sitting calmly in the center of the lake was a small island, just about 5 meters in surface area. And on top of the island was a not so simple looking fruit tree.

The fruit tree was rather very tall, standing at just about 3 meters. It had an assortment of colors; green, silver, red, blue, and brown, each cleanly split into five sections of the tree, which made it an unmistakable natural treasure, as no normal fruit tree would have such colors.

Each section of the tree had a branch, and on their own respective branches hung a plump and enticing-looking spirit fruit that coincided with the color.

Just looking at five fruits that were not only defenseless but radiating the Spiritual Qi that only a high yellow-grade natural treasure would, the two groups of cultivators were arguing over who it would belong to.

But since Xue Bai was in the void, he could see something that the two groups couldn\'t. So rather than foolishly try to steal it from the two groups using his physique to his advantage, he instead quickly backed away.

Floating as far away from the lake shore and the two groups as possible while staying in line of sight, Xue Bai quickly got on top of a tree and undid his physique away from the range of their Spiritual Senses and line of sight.

\'That\'s a Spirit Fruit Serpent. And it\'s at least in the Law Engraving realm as well!\' Xue Bai obviously knew what the true form of the tree was and didn\'t fall for the trap as these two groups of cultivators did.

In the vast and mystical Baishen Plane, there were many different demonic beasts, each with their own mystical abilities and innate talents. And this specific Spirit Fruit Serpent had an odd ability that made it very easily recognized by anyone who knew of its existence.

The Spirit Fruit Serpent was a demonic beast that spent its entire life in one small lake. However, because of their lethality and their danger factor, they were always things to be feared. Like the anglerfish from Earth, the Spirit Fruit Serpent also had an odd tongue.

At the end of the tongue of a Spirit Fruit Serpent was a wide and flat platform-like area, which in itself is not only odd but also extremely disadvantageous to the serpent. However, the Spirit Fruit Serpent race took that disadvantageous part and turned it into their core ability and hunting tool.

By covering the flat end of their tongue with large piles of dirt, they could eventually make it look like an island. And going a step further, they would find a natural treasure and place it on the makeshift island, which could further tempt any potential prey.

This would also be the way they got their name.

Therefore the fact that this specific Spirit Fruit Serpent had a natural treasure of the high yellow-grade, made Xue Bai certain that this demonic beast was at least in the later stages of the Houtian Great Realm, the Law Engraving realm was a guarantee, while any higher wasn\'t out of the realm of possibility.

And Xue Bai, knowing this, could very easily assume that these two cultivator groups were destined to fall into the stomach of the Spirit Fruit Serpent. They were so entranced by the natural treasure that they didn\'t even bother sending their Spiritual Sense deeper into the lake so they could see the monster lurking in its depths.

However, Xue Bai wasn\'t as ignorant as them and knew that such a valuable natural treasure wouldn\'t be unguarded. And the fact that he had seen the serpent while he was floating through the void.

Yet, because Xue Bai knew this, it made him feel greedy toward the fruit tree.

Xue Bai\'s knowledge of treasure locations came from 200 years into the future and the plot. So he wouldn\'t know about something if something wasn\'t still on the Baishen Plane 200 years in the future.

This fruit tree was obviously such an item. Most likely, someone found and consumed it on their own, or maybe the Spirit Fruit Serpent decided to eat it itself. Either way, Xue Bai had no idea of its existence until he ran into it a few minutes ago.

But now that he did, he was extremely against letting it continue wasting its potential sitting on a serpent\'s tongue.

That fruit tree was something called a Five Elements Mystic Spirit Tree, the most treasured item for any Organ Tempering realm cultivator.

As the last and final realm in the 5 physical realms, the Organ Tempering realm was naturally the most important and also the realm that could either lessen or widen the gap between cultivators.

In the Organ Tempering realm, one would have to naturally temper their organs.

The stomach, the lungs, the liver, the kidney, and most importantly, the heart. Each organ was vital to a cultivator, so when a cultivator reached the Organ Tempering realm, they would take each organ and temper them to its full potential.

And as most people know, the five organs also match the five elements of nature.

Each organ had an element that matched with an element. The heart coincided with fire, the stomach with earth, the liver with wood, the kidney with water, and the lungs with metal.

So when an Organ Tempering realm cultivator consumed the 5 fruits that the Five Elements Mystic Spirit Tree produced, their cultivation speed would increase by dozens of times!

While Xue Bai wasn\'t yet in the Organ Tempering realm, he would be soon. And since his situation was less than favorable, anything that could speed up cultivation time was something he needed.

He had lost almost three years of vital cultivation time and was far behind his previously estimated cultivation speed.

Xue Bai had planned to be in the Dharma Idol or maybe even the Law Engraving realm at 16, but now he still was meddling in the Bone Strengthening realm.

This tree was something he needed more than anything, and a Spirit Fruit Serpent wouldn\'t stop him from getting it.

"Tian Yu, aren\'t you and your Red Fang Mercenary Squad being too overbearing! Me and my Iron Wolf Hunting Group found the Five Elements Mystic Spirit Tree first." A rough burly man at the front of one of the two groups yelled out accusingly.

"Hmph! So what if we are Gao Feng? My Red Fang Mercenary Squad has control of this area of the Inner Region. So whatever is in here also belongs to us." The man named Tian Yu was also of equal size and wasn\'t the slightest bit afraid of his opponent, so he yelled back, not yielding a step.

"This isn\'t in your territory! This is the border between the Inner and Outer Region." Gao Feng was starting to get angry at his long-time rival and had already started to get ready to fight.

This was a Forbidden Area, and it went without saying that deaths were common. Who would know what would happen if he and his Iron Wolf Hunting Group killed all of them?

Though the Five Elements Mystic Spirit Tree was only a high yellow-grade natural treasure, it was something that could be planted in a good area and constantly be picked, supplying the owner with unlimited elemental spirit fruits. Because of that, its price was far above its rank and could be sold for thousands of Spirits Stones.

Thinking of all the wealth they could get from this one tree, Gao Feng\'s eyes started to glitter with greed.

But since he knew that Tian Yu wouldn\'t let them get it without a fight, Gao Feng started to think ahead. In his mind, he quickly formulated a plan, and unbeknownst to his rival, he put his left hand behind his back and formed a signal that only his subordinates would know,

"Fine! Tian Yu, you can have the Five Elements Mystic Spirit Tree. However, you must compensate me and my group. Give us 3 thousand Spirit Stones, and we\'ll leave peacefully." Gao Feng suddenly said, shocking the Red Fang Mercenary Squad and Tian Yu.

Tian Yu didn\'t expect his usually unyielding and persistent rival would yield so easily and give up on the opportunity of a lifetime. However, since Gao Feng did, Tian Yu did plan to question it and replied quickly.

"3 thousand is too much. We don\'t even have that many Spirit Stones between all of us. The best I can do is 2." Tian Yu tried to bargain and purposely tossed out a low number.

However, to his further shock, Gao Feng agreed readily.

"2 thousand is fine, but you need to give us that shop you were renovating in Tianyun City. If you can do that, we\'ll leave and even swear a Dao Oath to not tell anyone about the Five Elements Mystic Spirit Tree." Gao Feng said.

"So that\'s what you were aiming for." Tian Yu suddenly felt like he had seen through Gao Feng\'s plot, "Fine!"

With a painful expression, he started going into his spatial ring. And after a moment of digging, Tian Yu pulled out a jade slip and started to inscribe something onto it.

"If you give this jade slip to Old Yu of the Tianyun Real Estate Company, he\'ll give you the shop." Tian Yu said as he threw it over to his rival, "Now swear the Dao Oath and get out of my sight."

But the jade slip never reached Gao Feng. As the second Tian Yu lifted his head and tossed it over, Gao Feng and his group took action.

Gao Feng himself was in the Law Engraving realm, while most of his 9-man squad was either in the Qi Sea or Dharma Idol realm. So their speed, especially in such a close-quarters situation, was almost instant.

Gao Feng and his Iron Wolf Hunting Squad were ruthless and, without warning, instantly charged, planning to deal a devastating blow before their opponents even knew what had happened.

Gao Feng was the first to reach his rival and swung at his rival with a rune-covered sword now in his hand.

As he did, his skin started glowing, and a complex and mysterious-looking rune appeared on his arm. And as it did, his aura was amplified by several magnitudes.

Tian Yu and Gao Feng were long-time rivals, so they were both very acquainted with each other\'s strengths. So Gao Feng didn\'t plan to hold back at all against his rival and pulled out both his Dharma Idol and his rune-engraved skeleton.

\'Oh? This guy chose to engrave his own skeleton?\' Xue Bai noticed this odd combination and was slightly surprised.
