Chapter 174: Burning the Body
Chapter 174 Burning Body
Every branch of the Vermilion Fruit Tree was as if it was hardened from steel, and when it was drawn in the air, it could emit a violent sound, and the body of a Viscera Practicing Realm martial artist would turn into mush in just a few moments under such an attack.
But Baka just protect his head, straight rushed in, as long as it is not hitting its head, attacking other parts of the branches, Baka completely ignore.
“Ugh, I say you’re enough ah, I just want to take you a fruit, and not want to uproot you, you to this!”
Xu was really hurt by the whip, Baka finally could not help but shout loudly at the vermilion fruit tree, but the vermilion fruit tree as a response, is the frequency of more exaggerated whip.
At this moment, the two sides were five meters apart, and it already completely belonged to the core attack area of the Vermilion Fruit Tree, where the frequency of attacks was so dense that it made people’s scalp numb.
However, this position is the core attack area of the vermilion fruit tree, at the same time, it is also the most comfortable distance for Baka to strike.
“It’s all because you forced me, I just want a fruit!”
Baka suddenly let out a roar, and his body, which was already three meters away, unexpectedly grew more than a meter taller, coming to a level close to five meters.
Along with the growth in height, there was also Baka’s terrifying strength, as well as the defense it was proud of.
If the vermilion fruit tree branches just now, each will make Baka’s skin cracked, then at this moment these branches and then whip in Baka’s body, at best, can only cause some wounds.
And every wound on Baka’s body, at this moment also with amazing speed recovery, many smaller wounds, the branches just draw out, Baka’s body has recovered well.
This was Baka’s true fighting form, and also the berserk form. The only drawback, in addition to the energy in the body will be greatly consumed, is that the speed will also become much slower.
This was an inevitable result of the surge in strength and defense.
Now the distance between Baka and the vermilion fruit tree is only five meters, speed for Baka has no effect at all, Baka now only needs extreme strength and defense on the line.
“Boom!”
Baka punched out, the branches blocking the front instantly shattered more than half of them, Baka was just about to raise his step forward when several branches bound Baka’s calves.
The branches contracted with force, and the terrifying force was enough to turn fine iron into iron mud and allow it to be rubbed, but these branches were unable to cause any damage to Baka’s thighs at the moment, and at most, there were some insignificant scars.
“Boom!”
As if the sound of steel bars being forcibly pulled and broken, Baka just used his strength and ripped off all the branches on his leg, and even if more branches wrapped up, they couldn’t stop Baka from advancing.
“I said, I only want the fruit!”
Baka let out a roar, both hands began to madly hammer towards the front, the force of each punch was terrifyingly large, the branches of the vermilion fruit tree were still broken in pieces despite their desperate attempts to block them.
Vermilion Fruit Tree seems to have sensed the danger, each branch began to grow new branches crazily, just in the blink of an eye, the number of branches on the Vermilion Fruit Tree, has surged to three times the original extent.
And this is far from being the limit, the branches on the tree are still increasing, and the branches in front of Baka have become so dense that he can’t see the road in front of him at all.
“Roar!”
Baka let out a roar, hitting the real fire, a root above his head suddenly dried up, Baka’s eyes suddenly released a light, a qi that resembled a shield type appeared outside of his body, Baka’s right foot stepped backward and rushed into the group of branches.
“Boom boom boom!”
The sound similar to the sound of steel bars breaking was endless, relying on this qi energy, Baka actually instantly crossed this barrier that was like a rift valley and arrived in front of the vermilion fruit tree.
The body of the Vermilion Fruit Tree trembled violently, it didn’t think that Baka had really rushed to the front of its main body, whether it was to live or die next was entirely Baka’s choice.
“I said, I only want the fruit!”
Baka stifled a grunt, and two columns of air erupted out from among his nose, crashing into the vermilion fruit tree, the vermilion fruit tree shuddered, and just when it wanted to take the initiative to shed its fruit, a large hand had already grasped onto the branch.
“Boom!”
Even the fruit with the branch, was pulled down by a hand of Baka, the vermilion fruit tree constantly trembling, do not know whether it is painful, or afraid.
“I said, just the fruit, you have to be like this, pissed me off!”
Baka just wanted to turn around and leave, and then a little angry, a foot kicked on the main trunk of the vermilion fruit tree.
A huge roar, the ground trembled violently, the vermilion fruit tree was kicked backwards, the underground roots broke countless, at the same time, the front of the earth will be lifted up, looking as if the earth dragon is rolling violently.
Slightly out of breath, Baka coldly grunted, his right foot stepped backward with force, grabbed the small branch in his hand, and ran towards his residence.
A few miles away, the python that had been chasing Chen Fei to death, as if it had gotten some news, completely abandoned Chen Fei and rushed towards the location of the vermilion fruit tree.
Chen Fei did not continue to lure the python, so much time had passed that the Baka had either gotten his hands on it, or was unable to defeat the Vermilion Fruit Tree and ran away.
Either way, it would be fine for Chen Fei to return to the location of the hole in the ground and go wait for Baka.
Half an hour later, Chen Fei returned to the location of the hole in the ground and found that Baka had unexpectedly returned. Seeing Chen Fei, Baka proudly lit up the fruit in his hand.
Chen Fei went forward, took a look at the fruit, and determined that it was a vermilion fruit, then Chen Fei took a look at Baka’s feet, where there was a turquoise branch with a lot of branches left on it.
“This is from that tree?” Chen Fei asked with some curiosity.
“Yes. After being distracted by its draw, I ripped off the trunk around the fruit along with it.”
Baka nodded, then touched the whisker roots on top of his head with some heartache, these were the location where its body’s energy was polymerized, and could be called upon in times of desperation. Eating herbs day after day, the whiskers on top of Baka’s head were only ten or so, as a result, today, for the sake of the fruit, it actually took one in.
Chen Fei glanced at the top of Baka’s head, and then at the tree trunk under his feet.
The texture of this tree trunk looked like it could possibly be used as a spiritual material. The power of the branches of that Vermilion Fruit Tree, Chen Fei had seen it before, ordinary gold and iron was a joke in front of those branches.
One could imagine the texture of these branches, not to mention the branches above the branches, the material must be even better.
“You want it? Then you told me earlier, I could have taken more just now.”
Seeing Chen Fei observing the branches, Baka couldn’t help but laugh. At that time, Baka could have more than just taken more, it was estimated that it was possible to take down the main trunk of the Vermilion Fruit Tree.
“If you say so, I’ll take it.”
Chen Fei didn’t push back and directly leaned down and lifted the branch, just now waiting for these words from Baka.
“It’s not like this thing can be eaten.” Baka laughed, only things that could be eaten were useful to it.
Of course, now because of the additional Chen Fei, it had become that what could make something tasty was only useful.
“This fruit, do you want to eat it nutritionally, or are you just after the flavor?”
Having collected an additional branch that was no less than a spirit material, Chen Fei decided to pit Baka a little less.
“There are still two ways to eat this fruit?”
Baka couldn’t help but be stunned and queried, “What’s the word for both kinds? I know little, you can’t lie to me.”
“It’s all your own choice, what can I lie to you about.”
Chen Fei’s face revealed a smile, two paths, you chose one, then if you find out later that there is a problem, it’s also you who chose wrongly, what has it got to do with me!
“Then tell me the difference.” Baka felt that Chen Fei had a point and nodded his head as he asked.
“Nutritional eating is to maximize the energy within this fruit. Do you know about alchemy? It’s a bit similar to that.”
Chen Fei gestured, he knew that Baka had absorbed a martial artist’s memory fragment, so he should have an impression of alchemy.
Sure enough, upon hearing alchemy, Baka nodded, it really did know a little bit about this thing, but of course, it was only a little rough impression.
After all, the martial artist he had absorbed did not know how to make alchemy himself.
“What about nutritional eating, is that the flavor is very average. If you pursue the flavor, then you need to divide this fruit into two layers, inside and outside, the part of the outer layer of fruit flesh, tastes better, I will make it for you to eat, the inner layer belongs to me. The pulp and the inner layer, the weight is equal.”
This Chen Fei indeed did not deceive Baka, but Chen Fei also understated one thing, that is, the part of the fruit flesh, although the flavor is better, but contains less energy, probably only accounts for about 30% of the whole fruit.
This was something that Chen Fei had only discovered after he had eaten a Vermilion Fruit, others who hadn’t been exposed to it had no way of knowing.
After listening to Chen Fei’s words, Baka frowned slightly, looking somewhat hesitant.
Having just used one of the roots on top of its head, Baka actually wanted to replenish its energy, this would make it feel more secure, after all, this secret realm, was too dangerous.
Baka, as an indigenous, even felt that this place was full of crisis.
But when something is nutritious, it tastes bad. When he first went to find this vermilion fruit, what he was seeking was the flavor, if the stuff didn’t taste good anymore, wouldn’t he fail his original goal?
Baka hesitated and touched the root on top of his head, anyway, there are still a dozen or so, one less is nothing, it’s better to eat something tasty first.
“I want something that tastes good.” Baka exclaimed.
“As you wish!”
The corners of Chen Fei’s mouth revealed a hint of a smile as he cut the vermilion fruit with his power qi, displaying the flesh, as well as the inner layers, for Baka to see.
Seeing that the two were indeed similar in size, Bakan couldn’t help but have a smile on his face, thinking that Chen Fei was a truthful person.
Chen Fei spent an hour, thoroughly embodying the spirit of a craftsman, getting out a large bowl of medicinal juice and handing it to Baka.
As soon as Baka just drank it, the expression on his face was completely fixed.
It was too good to drink, far better than the two bowls of medicinal juice that Chen Fei had concocted earlier. Compared to the one in front of him, the one he drank before was nothing but dregs.
When Chen Fei saw Baka’s expression, the smile on his face grew even wider.
If something blended out of a spiritual material didn’t taste good, then how could one continue to find other spiritual materials afterward?
However, the other spirit materials were put aside for now, Chen Fei needed to refine the portion of Vermilion Fruit that belonged to himself in his hand first.
Previously, Chen Fei had spent five days refining a Vermilion Fruit, but now it was only half a fruit, so naturally it wouldn’t take that much time, and there were other herbs to go along with it, so the time it took was even shorter.
A quarter of an hour later, Chen Fei lifted the stone bowl in his hand, the Vermilion Fruit had already been incorporated into it, Chen Fei tilted his head and drank it down in one gulp.
As if drinking a ball of flame, Chen Fei’s entire body seemed to burn.
