Chapter 1000 The Earthvein Spiritual Fruits

Lu Xiaoyao said, “Little magic doctor, I need your help with something.”

Qin Haodong said, “President Lu, please feel free to say it. As long as I can help you, I will do my best.”

Lu Xiaoyao said, “Little magic doctor, there is a place called Thunder Mountain in the north of Dragon City. Many years ago, I passed by the site when I was collecting herbs, and accidentally stumbled across a legendary Earthvein Spiritual Fruits magic tree.”

“Earthvein Spiritual Fruits!?”

Qin Haodong’s expression changed greatly. As the Medical Sage, he was certainly aware of this kind of spiritual fruit. It was said that Earthvein Spiritual Fruit could help people and spirit beasts quickly awaken their bloodline power.

However, he had only read about this kind of spiritual fruit in ancient books and had never seen it in its physical form before.

Lu Xiaoyao said, “Yes, it is a kind of spiritual fruit. I have tracked this Earthvein Spiritual Fruits tree for many years. In a few days, the fruits on this tree will be ripe and ready for us to pick.

“I’ve been stuck at the stage of the Grand Completion Realm for a long time and haven’t made any progress in my cultivation until now. If I can obtain one Earthvein Spiritual Fruit, I’ll be able to refine the eighth-level pill, the Vitality Pill.

“At that time, I can use the Vitality Pill to help me reach the next level.”

When he heard the name “Earthvein Spiritual Fruit”, Qin Haodong was thrilled.

Although his Three-legged Golden Toad possessed the dragon bloodline, it was still very difficult for it to evolve again.

The Little Witch’s Holy Spirit Body had already been stabilized. She could summon the seventh-level demonic beasts each time. If the Three-legged Golden Toad wanted to evolve, the effect of devouring the seventh-level demonic beasts summoned by the Little Witch would be minimal.

If he could obtain one Earthvein Spiritual Fruit and let his Three-legged Golden Toad eat it, the Three-legged Golden Toad would be able to rapidly increase its bloodline power and evolve to become an eighth-level spirit beast. That would be equivalent to improving his own strength.

Despite being overjoyed at this news, he also knew that Lu Xiaoyao’s request would not be so simple. Since Lu Xiaoyao had to ask him for help, he must have some difficulty in getting those Earthvein Spiritual Fruits.

Sure enough, Lu Xiaoyao continued, “Since ancient times, this kind of spiritual fruit has always been guarded by spiritual beasts. These Earthvein Spiritual Fruits are guarded by the eighth-level demonic beast, the Earth Bear.

“This beast is powerful enough to match a master at the middle stage of the Grand Completion Realm. Moreover, it is always on guard beside the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits tree. Therefore, I’m afraid it will devour all the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits as soon as they are ripe.

“It is not an easy thing for us to get these Earthvein Spiritual Fruits. What’s more, it is really dangerous!”

Qin Haodong said, “President Lu, you want me to help you get those Earthvein Spiritual Fruits?”

Lu Xiaoyao did have this idea. He had never thought about asking Qin Haodong for help before. However, this idea suddenly struck him after he saw Qin Haodong’s strength last night.

He was at the early stage of the Grand Completion Realm. It was impossible for him to defeat the Earth Bear that was equivalent to a master at the middle stage of the Grand Completion Realm and get the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits. If Qin Haodong helped him, the probability of success was higher.

He said, “Little magic doctor, that’s what I mean. Please rest assured! You’ll get paid.

“When the Earth Bear went out to hunt, I observed this Earthvein Spiritual Fruits tree. There are five fruits in total. I only need one to refine pills. The remaining four fruits will be yours.”

Qin Haodong said, “President Lu, since you had such an opportunity, why did you not bring those Earthvein Spiritual Fruits back?”

He had only heard of its effects and didn’t know much about this kind of spiritual fruit.

Lu Xiaoyao shook his head and said, “After I saw the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits tree, I checked many ancient books. I learned that this kind of spiritual fruit is formed from the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth. The tree cannot be transplanted.

“Moreover, before these Earthvein Spiritual Fruits are ripe, they are useless and do not have any medicinal effects. Thus, I have to wait until these fruits are ripe.

“Just because of that, the Earth Bear has been staying there all this time and waiting for the right time to eat them.”

“Oh!” Qin Haodong nodded and asked, “How long it will take for these Earthvein Spiritual Fruits to ripen?”

Lu Xiaoyao said, “Three days.”

Qin Haodong said, “Well, let’s go and have a look now.”

He had already made up his mind to obtain the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits.

This thing was too important for him. First of all, the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits could help his Three-legged Golden Toad to evolve to the eighth level. Secondly, if the Little Witch ate the fruits, her Holy Spirit Body might undergo another awakening for the third time.

The Little Witch was now almost invincible at the seventh level. Once she became an eighth-level summoner, her strength would be unimaginable.

Seeing that Qin Haodong agreed to help, Lu Xiaoyao was overjoyed and said, “Great, little magic doctor, let’s prepare for our journey.”

Qin Haodong went to find Niu Cuihua and He Ziwei and told them about it. The two girls naturally didn’t object to this decision.

After breakfast, the three of them left Little Dragon City with Lu Xiaoyao. They made their way hurriedly to Thunder Mountain.

Thunder Mountain was not far from Little Dragon City. They arrived at their destination near noon.

Lu Xiaoyao pointed to the front and said, “The place where we are going is about 10 miles ahead. The Earth Bear is an eighth-level demonic beast. It is extremely sensitive. We must be careful and try our best to hide our auras. Otherwise, it will discover us and we will be in trouble.”

Qin Haodong and the other two nodded and walked forward with Lu Xiaoyao.

In front of them was a vast valley that stretched as far as the eye could see. At the edge of the valley was a huge cave, where the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits tree grew.

When Qin Haodong and the others arrived at the cave, they found that a lot of people had gathered there. Obviously, these people had also come for the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits.

Lu Xiaoyao was also stunned. He didn’t expect that there were others who knew the secret.

After observing these people from afar, he said, “Oh no! These people are from the Dragon Royal Family.”

If they were any other ordinary warriors, he still had a chance to get the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits. However, they were people from the Dragon Royal Family. After all, no one dared to provoke the Dragon Royal Family in the Dragon Kingdom.

Niu Cuihua said disdainfully, “What’s so great about the Dragon Royal Family? These Earthvein Spiritual Fruits were formed by the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, not planted by them.”

Lu Xiaoyao said, “Little girl, that’s true, but we really can’t afford to offend the Dragon Royal Family.”

He Ziwei asked, “Are we going to give up just like that?”

Lu Xiaoyao said, “Let’s go and discuss it with the other party. If the Dragon Royal Family refuses to cooperate with us, we will have to give up.”

Qin Haodong understood. After all, Lu Xiaoyao’s Alchemist Association was in the Dragon Kingdom, so he had to be responsible for hundreds of alchemists under his command.

Qin Haodong stopped Niu Cuihua who was about to say something, and then said, “Let’s do as President Lu said and see if the other party agrees to cooperate with us.”

Lu Xiaoyao nodded and walked forward with the crowd. Before they took a few steps, more than a dozen palace guards immediately came to them.

These guards were selected elites. Each one of them was above the stage of the Combination Realm.

“Stop. What are you doing here?” the leader of these guards shouted.

“I am Lu Xiaoyao, the president of the Alchemist Association. May I know who is in charge here?”

When he heard that he was the president of the Alchemist Association, the face of the leader immediately eased up and said, “It’s the First Prince.”

Lu Xiaoyao said, “Can you help to inform his highness that Lu Xiaoyao wants to see him?”

“President Lu, please wait a moment.”

The leader of these guards turned around and walked into a camp. Not long after, a young man in his 30s came out.

This person was dressed in a glorious outfit and exuded a dignified bearing. It was the first prince of the Dragon Kingdom, Li Zhen.

After seeing Lu Xiaoyao, he stepped forward and said, “President Lu, why are you here?”

Lu Xiaoyao said, “I have been observing this Earthvein Spiritual Fruits tree for a long time. I want to try my luck today, but I didn’t expect to meet you, Your Highness.”

Li Zhen said, “President Lu, since you have been paying attention to the tree for a long time, I think you know that there is an Earth Bear guarding here. Although the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits are treasures, you can’t get them. Please go back.”

Lu Xiaoyao said, “Your Highness, would you like to cooperate with us? There are five Earthvein Spiritual Fruits in total. We only need two.”

A trace of contempt flashed across Li Zhen’s face. “President Lu, there is really no need for me to cooperate with you. We can do it ourselves.”

Previously, as a mark of respect for Lu Xiaoyao’s status as the president of the Alchemist Association, he was polite to Lu Xiaoyao, but this kind of politeness was only on the surface. His attitude toward Lu Xiaoyao changed instantly after he knew that Lu Xiaoyao also wanted to get Earthvein Spiritual Fruits.

“This…”

Lu Xiaoyao stared at the cave for a long time. He was really unwilling to give it up.

As if reading his mind, Li Zhen continued, “President Lu, to tell you the truth, my sister is injured and in urgent need of these Earthvein Spiritual Fruits.

“Moreover, we have one master at the middle stage of the Grand Completion Realm and two masters at the early stage of the Grand Completion Realm, so there is no need for us to cooperate with you.”

When he found that the other party’s strength was so great, Lu Xiaoyao sighed. It seemed that he could only give up.

“Then I will take my leave, Your Highness.”

Li Zhen said, “Take care, President Lu.”

Niu Cuihua was about to take action again. Qin Haodong immediately stopped her. Then, they followed Lu Xiaoyao and He Ziwei and left the valley.

After they left, Lu Xiaoyao said apologetically, “Little magic doctor, I’m really sorry you came here in vain. The circumstances have changed, and I can’t help it.”

Qin Haodong said, “It doesn’t matter. After all, the other party is the Dragon Royal Family. We can’t afford to offend them.”

Lu Xiaoyao smiled apologetically and said, “What are you going to do next? Would you like to stay in our Little Dragon City for a few days?”

Qin Haodong said, “President Lu, we appreciate your kindness. What’s done is done. We won’t stay here any longer. We want to go to Dragon City.”

“Well, little magic doctor, let’s hope we can meet again someday!”

Lu Xiaoyao said goodbye to them and flew toward Little Dragon City.

After he left, Niu Cuihua said to Qin Haodong, “Hubby, are we just going to give up like this?”

“Of course not. We must get those Earthvein Spiritual Fruits,” Qin Haodong said. “Lu Xiaoyao is the president of the Alchemist Association after all. It’s not convenient for him to offend the Dragon Royal Family. We had better do it ourselves.”

Niu Cuihua said excitedly, “That’s right. The Dragon Royal Family is nothing. Let’s go and kill them all now. At that time, the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits will be ours.”

She had never feared anyone or anything. What’s more, she already held a grudge against the Dragon Royal Family. Therefore, she didn’t care in the slightest.

Qin Haodong shook his head and said, “We can’t do that. Didn’t you hear that they have one master at the middle stage of the Grand Completion Realm and two masters at the early stage of the Grand Completion Realm.”

Niu Cuihua said, “What’s the big deal? Leave the master at the middle stage of the Grand Completion Realm to me and leave the other two masters at the early stage of the Grand Completion Realm to the two Flame Gold-eyed Beasts. I don’t believe we can’t defeat them.”

“That won’t do. Fighting head-on will always be the worst option. It might even be a Pyrrhic victory if we win in the end.

“The Earthvein Spiritual Fruit is a natural treasure. We don’t know how many people are keeping an eye on the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits tree. Now we only know that the Dragon Royal Family is guarding it. There may be others lurking in the shadows, waiting for their chance.”

Qin Haodong was very clear about the strength of the Dragon Royal Family. In contrast, his side was still at a disadvantage.

After all, Niu Cuihua had just stepped into the middle stage of the Grand Completion Realm. There was definitely a gap between her and the opponent’s master who had improved to the middle stage of the Grand Completion Realm for a long time. Moreover, his sniper rifle was useless against the master at the middle stage of the Grand Completion Realm. Thus, his side would have no advantage in a real fight.

Niu Cuihua said, “The men of the Dragon Royal Family are standing guard there. How will we get the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits if we don’t kill them?”
