Chapter 968: Harvesting the Subli Fruit
Subli Mountain was located in the central region of the Ninth Continent.
The mountain was a famous ancient ruin. It was called Subli Mountain not because there was an ancient Subli Sect, but because a subli tree grew there.
The subli tree bore fruit once every hundred years. The fruit looked like a human heart with several holes. The least number of holes was one, while the greatest was nine.
The fruit with nine holes was also known as the nine-chakra subli heart.
It absorbed the essence of the heavens and was considered a spiritual object. One’s cultivation base would increase greatly after eating it.
Other than that, there was an even greater use.
If an awakening period cultivator in the process of breaking through to the State of the Golden Core ate a subli fruit, their golden core would be different.
Soone that unsealed one chakra could eat a one-hole subli fruit to cultivate a one-chakra golden core. A two-chakra cultivator could eat a two-hole fruit to cultivate a two-chakra golden core, and so on.
Similarly, if a nine-chakra cultivator ate a nine-hole fruit, they would be able to cultivate a nine-chakra subli golden core.
Unsealing chakras upon one’s golden core would speed up the accumulation of qi. Every chakra unsealed would increase one’s power by several tis. Those who had unsealed nine chakras would have the strongest golden core, and their power was unparalleled.
Naturally, to possess a nine-chakra golden core, one would have to unseal nine chakras in the awakening period. That was why cultivators with a nine-chakra golden core were exceedingly rare.
Every ti the subli fruit ripened, it would be a major event in the Ninth Continent. Prodigies from all over would gather at the tree.
Of course, other places in the Ninth Continent had subli trees, but there were not many.
The news that subli fruits were ripening spread widely, causing a sensation throughout the entire Ninth Continent and attracting the attention of all the prodigies.
Many Golden Core cultivators were piqued too. It was said that an epiphany tree had been discovered at Subli Mountain. Anyone who was facing a bottleneck in their cultivation could benefit a lot by sitting under the tree.
Subli Mountain beca extrely lively as people continued to flock there.
Young prodigies could be seen everywhere, and they had faint points of light on their bodies. Three-chakra and six-chakra cultivators were usually rare, but they were thronging the streets in large groups.
“Look, the people from Broken Sword Mountain are here! That’s Nangong Lie, what a sharp gaze...”
“That’s Xin Yidao! What’s going on? Why do they look like they’re here to kill soone?”
Everyone cried out in surprise when they saw the people from Broken Sword Mountain arriving.
In the Ninth Continent, Broken Sword Mountain was considered one of the top ten factions.
The group of Broken Sword Mountain prodigies entered the market and looked around seriously as though searching for sothing. A mont later, they blended into the crowd.
Not long later, Treasure Trove Mountain arrived. The person in the lead was as strong and burly as an iron tower. He was none other than Shentu ng.
“That’s Treasure Trove Mountain! The one that looks so scary is Shentu ng, and the one beside him is his sister. You can’t tell that they’re born from the sa parents,” soone muttered softly.
Everyone looked at Shentu ng curiously.
“Where are you looking? You wanna fight?”
Shentu ng roared, and his eyes flashed with killing intent.
Everyone imdiately shut their mouths.
Shentu ng grunted angrily and looked around before stepping into the market.
Following that, people from the Rainmaker Tribe and the Di family arrived one after another.
All the prodigies were filled with killing intent.
The arrival of a young man in green robes caused a commotion at the market entrance. Countless people sward over to witness that person’s elegance.
“He’s Dao Jiu, the number one prodigy of the Ninth Continent?”
“He’s so handso!”
The people in the crowd discussed. So girls were shrieking.
Dao Jiu of Prival Mountain had always been known as the number one prodigy of the Ninth Continent, and he had countless fangirls.
The scene was almost out of control.
“Number one prodigy? Hmph, he doesn’t look that great!” Soone mocked him.
The people around that person turned around and looked at him as though they were looking at a lunatic.
“Heh, he’s number one alright. Who else could it be? Nangong Lie? Forget it, he lost to Dao Jiu several tis!”
“You’re only jealous of how powerful and handso he is!”
They reprimanded him. So girls glared at him angrily, as though they wanted to fight him to the death.
They could not tolerate anyone talking negatively about their idol and dream lover.
That person seed unfazed. “All of you are ignorant! There’s soone in the Ninth Continent more powerful than Dao Jiu.”
“Ha! Keep bragging! How is that possible?”
“I don’t care if you believe it!”
“Tell then, who is that person?”
The person looked at the sky wistfully and muttered, “That person... his surna is Qin, but no one knows his na. Everyone calls him Naless Qin.”
“Naless Qin?”
The people around him were stunned. They thought that they heard the na sowhere before.
Soon, they recalled that Naless Qin was a notorious wanted criminal. Many factions had issued bounties on him.
They did not know the reason why. Everything related to Naless Qin had always been a mystery.
“It can’t be! How can he be more powerful than Dao Jiu?” The girls were not convinced.
“I don’t care if you believe or not. I wonder if he’ll co this ti. It’d be very interesting if he does,” the person said.
“Ha, he won’t dare to co! So many factions are hunting him down!”
“What kind of prodigy is that Naless Qin? If he’s being hunted down by so many people, he must be an irredeemable supervillain who kills indiscriminately,” a young girl said angrily.
“Supervillain?” The person was startled and said with a smile, “Maybe!”
Soon, no one paid attention to him. The people continued their way, and the scene beca livelier than ever.
More prodigies arrived at Subli Mountain in the next two days. So of them sat under the subli tree waiting for the fruit to ripen, while others went to look for the epiphany tree.
An endless stream of people was traveling on the road leading to the mountain.
Naturally, so people would take the opportunity to commit robberies.
“Hah! Stop right there! I’m the tollkeeper of this road. You’ll have to pay if you want to walk through here!”
“Th... this... this is a robbery. H... hand over y... your crystals and Artifacts!”
A group of masked n waited by the side of the road. Whenever they saw people traveling alone or in small groups of twos or threes, they would jump out and intercept them.
“Wahaha! We’re rich! We’re rich!”
“Look at all the money, Senior Brother! We’re so lucky!”
Other than prodigies, so people went to Subli Mountain to join in the crowd. They were not powerful, so the robbers managed to get quite a lot of money from them.
They were all beaming with joy.
At that mont, another person ca along the road. He was dressed in white and looked unremarkable. Judging from his cultivation, he was only in the middle or latter period of the State of Foundation Establishnt.
“Stop right there! I’m the tollkeeper...”
The robbers jumped out and shouted fiercely.
The young man in white clothes stopped walking and looked at them with surprise.
“Hey, pay up! You won’t want to get hurt, right?”
The robbers beca impatient when they saw the person standing there.
Suddenly, the young man smiled. “What a coincidence! We et again!”
