Chapter 1010: Making a Fortune, Mass Production
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The soil in the garden of the herb valley was all spiritual soil.
The soil was rich in spiritual energy, which was suitable for the growth of spirit herbs.
A green sprout slowly sprouted from the soil and grew to a height of nine centimeters.
“It’s growing!” Hyrum Lujan was pleasantly surprised.
“The Big Vermilion Fruit Tree needs time to grow, and it also needs nutrients. After a hundred years, it should be able to blossom and bear fruit!”
Jevan Cox commented.
This was the growth cycle of the spirit fruit tree. It had to grow for a hundred years and absorb enough nutrients before it would blossom and bear fruit.
But a hundred years was really too long!
Braydon Neal placed his right hand behind his back and gently tapped the green shoot with his left hand.
A wisp of purple Qi appeared and surrounded the tender bud.
Swoosh!
The tender shoot seemed to have been dried for a long time. It was absorbing the purple Qi like the little fool slurping down noodles.
In exchange, the entire shoot grew.
In an instant, the sprouts broke through the ground and grew wildly.
It grew ten centimeters per second.
Nine seconds later.
It broke through the soil and grew 90 centimeters, turning into a small tree with lush leaves. The trunk was three centimeters thick, forming a small crown. It was covered with green leaves and was emitting a faint spiritual fragrance.
This was a spirit fruit tree!
Little Fool was immediately tempted. He reached out and grabbed a green leaf, plucked it off, and secretly put it in his mouth.
His gluttonous appearance made people wonder if Luke would eat the entire Vermilion Fruit Tree when no one was paying attention.
Hyrum exclaimed, “The purple Qi can nourish all things. It has an extraordinary effect on the spirit tree. Using purple Qi to irrigate it can speed up the growth of this spirit tree.”
Braydon smiled faintly, and a wisp of purple Qi appeared between his fingers.
The purple Qi surrounded the Vermilion Fruit Tree and was completely absorbed by it.
The Vermilion Fruit Tree grew once again, rising from the ground. It was 1.5 meters tall, and its leaves were lush. Green branches grew out, emitting a faint fragrance.
Braydon’s third streak of purple Qi entered the spirit tree.
When the spirit tree grew to two meters, its branches were intertwined, forming a crown with flower buds.
There were a total of seven grain-sized green flower buds.
After the seven flower buds bloomed.
It was the Vermilion Fruit Flower!
The Vermilion Fruit Flower could be used as medicine and had miraculous effects on martial artists.
When Jevan and Hyrum saw this scene, their eyes revealed a look of amazement.
The Vermilion Fruit Tree that originally needed a hundred years to grow had already produced flower buds.
“I’ll use purple Qi to hasten the growth of the first batch of Vermilion Fruits in two days,” Braydon said calmly.
Jevan did not stop him.
After all, if he succeeded in what he had done today, it meant that Heavenly Mountain would not lack any spirit fruits and spirit herbs in the future.
It could be mass produced.
Jevan had already seen the tip of the iceberg of how terrifying the Great Void of Kylo Art was.
It was not without reason that purple Qi was regarded as a treasure by martial artists.
Hyrum had come to Braydon because of the purple Qi.
The little fool squatted in front of the spirit tree and watered it diligently every day. It was probably thinking about the Vermilion Fruit.
When the Vermilion Fruit ripened, if they did not give one to the little fool, he would tear down the herb valley!
In the next two days, Braydon returned to Luxor Peak and cultivated the Great Void of Kylo Art. With the help of the bronze throne, he condensed six great purple Qi.
When he returned to the herb valley, he realized that there was another person here.
A cold-looking young man in black clothes with long black hair that fell down his shoulders saw Braydon. He cupped his hands and bowed. “Stratford Layton of Rocky Peak greets the Young Master!”
“Heavenly Mountain is full of experts!”
Braydon smiled faintly. He could sense that Stratford’s strength was not weaker than Jevan’s.
“When the Young Master reaches my age in the future, his achievements will probably be far above mine,” Stratford said softly.
“Don’t be so polite, Young Master. Let’s begin!”
Hyrum was in charge of the herb valley, so he treated the plants in the garden like his own children.
Now that he could personally see a spirit tree grow from bud to blossom, it could be considered a blessing.
Braydon didn’t hesitate. With a wave of his hand, three streaks of great purple Qi surrounded the spirit tree.
Purple Qi surrounded the spirit fruit tree.
The spirit tree had already stopped growing. On each of its six branches, there was a small flower bud.
The green flower bud slowly grew and bloomed, turning into a bright red six-petal red flower.
The flower’s stamen was like fire, emitting a fragrance the moment it bloomed.
Within a hundred meters of the flower garden, all the plants were withering.
It was as if the spiritual energy of all the plants was being absorbed by the spirit tree.
Hyrum wasn’t surprised. He said softly, “Every spirit herb that matures will steal the essence of the plants around it to ensure its own growth. This is the law of all life.”
“The same thing can happen between ordinary plants. Within the range of a hundred-meter-tall tree, the other plants are destined to wither and lose their luster. All their nutrients will be absorbed by the tree.”
Jevan was also familiar with this matter.
Braydon was very calm. He stood in front of the spirit tree with his hands behind his back.
He watched as the seven Vermilion Fruit flowers withered and green fruits slowly appeared.
The fruit was as big as a ping pong ball.
It was not fully mature yet!
This required a process!
The growth of the Big Vermillion Fruit took fifty years to bloom, fifty years to bear fruit, and fifty years to ripen.
It would take 150 years.
Now, it had already borne fruit.
It would take time to fully mature.
However, Braydon raised his hand and sent two streams of purple Qi into the spirit tree.
The seven green fruits grew slightly bigger, and they were as big as apples. The green color faded away, and a red color appeared.
As time slowly passed.
Before sunset.
The seven Vermilion Fruits of the spirit fruit tree had completely lost their green color. They were bright red and glistening, emitting an extremely dense fragrance.
The fragrance of the spirit fruit was refreshing.
Luke Yates squatted at the side and was immediately tempted. He raised his head and cried out, “Brother, I’m hungry. I want to eat!”
“You want to eat the Vermilion Fruit, right?”
Braydon couldn’t help but laugh. He raised his left hand, plucked two ripe Vermilion Fruits, and threw them directly to the little fool.
Braydon had always favored his younger brother.
The spirit fruit tree had a total of seven Vermilion Fruits, and he gave two to the little fool at once.
There were still five left. Braydon plucked them all and gave one each to Hyrum, Jevan, and Stratford. It could be said that everyone who saw it had a share.
“Let’s give it a try. Let’s see how effective this Vermilion Fruit is!”
Braydon took a small bite.
The rich fruit flesh contained abundant spiritual energy.
This was a real spirit fruit!
After tasting it, Hyrum’s eyes flashed with excitement. “It’s the real Vermilion Fruit!”
“Little Fool, what do you think?”
Braydon looked at Luke and asked him, a glutton, to comment.
Luke had eaten the real wild Vermilion Fruit in the Lowell yin-yang headquarter. He didn’t know how different it was compared to the Vermilion Fruit in the flowerbed.
“The wild Big Vermilion Fruit…” the little fool said seriously, “It’s a little sour. This isn’t sour!”
“I’m not asking about the taste. I’m asking about the spiritual energy!”
Braydon felt helpless.
“The wild Big Vermilion Fruit has violent and chaotic spiritual energy,” said the fool. “Perhaps it’s because they grow in the wild, so the spiritual energy contained in the fruits is accumulated bit by bit. The Vermilion Fruit that you have nurtured with purple Qi has gentle spiritual energy and is very rich. It’s more suitable for martial artists to consume.”
