Chapter 301: Blood Vermilion Fruit

"Hehe... Little girl, did you see that? That boy escaped alone while leaving you behind. Why don't you come with me? I will give you everything you ask for, just come with this Young Master." Yue Lao laughed loudly when he saw Ye Xiao leaving. He first thought that Ye Xiao will reject him and will stay here to play the part of a hero by trying to save the beauty.

He thought in his heart, "At least, that brat is sensible. If he stayed here, I would have killed him first before enjoying this beauty."

Little Yellow didn't say anything. She looked at Yue Lao and smiled sweetly before waving her hand. Then she also left the restaurant.

This time, no one dared to stop her from leaving because the moment she waved her hand, Yue Lao and the other two young men beside him fell down on the ground lifelessly.

If Ye Xiao had seen this scene, he would certainly have been shocked because the way Little Yellow killed the three young men was very similar to the ability 'Soul Destruction' that he received from the Divine Soul Emperor Dragon.

.....

"What did you find that can help me breakthrough to the Martial Saint Realm?"

When Little Yellow came out from the restaurant, Ye Xiao understood that the three guys were taken care of by her. He walked to her and asked the thing he wanted to ask the most at the moment.

Little Yellow pointed her hand in the west direction and said, "Around 5000 kilometres away from here in the west direction, a medicinal fruit just is about to mature. That medicinal Fruit can help you break through to the Martial Saint Realm."

Ye Xiao did not waste even a bit of time after hearing Little Yellow.

"Wings of the Divine Dragon!"

"Spirit Devour Escape!"

He used the wings of the Divine Dragon and Spirit Devour Escape to fly in the west direction with extremely fast speed. His speed was something that even Little Yellow felt troubled to catch up with.

She was already Seventh Grade Magical Beast. In the lower realm, she could not be more powerful but even so, she was troubled to catch up with Ye Xiao.

After only two hours of extremely fast journey, Ye Xiao arrived at the location pointed by Little Yellow.

This location was inside a forest. After passing through the forest, Ye Xiao descended on the ground.

In front of him was a trickling stream surrounded by a lush undergrowth. The sound of a cascading waterfall resounded in his ears. This was a beautiful valley.

Ye Xiao looked back for Little Yellow but failed to find her. He knew that she definitely knows where he was currently so he was not worried that she will fail to find him.

This beautiful Valley was located at the boundary between the inner layer and the core area of a forest. After passing through the forest, a single step was like stepping into paradise. There were many unusual treasures growing within the valley and precious medicinal ingredients could be found everywhere. The strong medicinal aroma emanating from within the valley was almost forming a multi-coloured curtain as it hovered in the skies.

It was a pity that all these medicinal herbs were of no use to Ye Xiao. He was now already at the Peak of the Martial Ancestor Realm and there are very few medicinal herbs in the Lower Realm that could help him with his cultivation.

"This is truly a wondrous location," Ye Xiao muttered. After arriving at the Holy Beast Continent for so long, this was the first time Ye Xiao felt the marvel of this world. This valley really was very beautiful.

Since the Valley was located at the boundary between the inner layer and the core area of the forest, there was a possibility of seventh-grade magical beasts appearing here.

Ye Xiao stepped into the Valley. Within the serene valley, lush vegetation was growing everywhere. Everywhere he saw, he could only see green. However, within this greenery, he could occasionally spot a few thickets of flowers beautifully blooming in this winter.

Even though it was winter, the Valley seemed to be in a different world. There were no cold winter winds or falling snow. The inside of the verdant valley was exuding a warm wetness and was extremely comfortable.

Their eyes were filled with curiosity as they looked around.

"Butterfly Leaf Herb! A third grade medicinal herb!" Ye Xiao gaze suddenly fell down on a herb that resembled the wings of a butterfly.

Furthermore, it was not just the Butterfly Leaf Herb. Within the valley, there were all sorts of precious herbs from grade one to grade five growing all over the place.

As the thunderous sound of a waterfall resounded in his ears, Ye Xiao's attention was attracted by it. He soon came before the waterfall.

As a strong wind mixed with water vapor blew past them, his sleeves and the edges of his clothes flapped violently. His eyes were squinting as he looked forward.

"Hmm? Is that a Water Spirit Herb?" Ye Xiao raised his eyebrows as he looked toward a touch of purple leaves near the edge of the waterfall. The Water Spirit Herb was beneath the leaves.

"Yes, that's the sixth grade medicinal herb, Water Spirit Herb. I didn't think this Valley would even have Water Spirit Herb!" Ye Xiao was rather happy when he confirmed that the herb was the Water Spirit herb.

It was a Sixth Grade Medicinal Herb and on the Second Floor of the Nine Story Pagoda, it could evolve into a Seventh Grade Medicinal Herb.

Ye Xiao started walking forward. He would naturally not miss such an opportunity to acquire the Water Spirit Herb. Especially when the value of this herb was indisputable and it was very rare as well.

Although he did not have a Water Elemental Body, he could still use this herb to make a small breakthrough in his cultivation after breaking through to the Martial Saint Realm.

Just as Ye Xiao was only a few meters away from the Water Spirit Herb, he knitted his eyebrows together as the sound of an object sailing through the air reached his ears.

Ye Xiao's expression remained unchanged. As he waved his arm, the Sea Dragon Spear immediately appeared in his hand and was thrust toward the swiftly approaching figure.

During the instant the Sea Dragon Spear appeared, the body of the approaching figure suddenly stiffened and its head was immediately pierced by Ye Xiao's Sea Dragon Spear.

Bright red blood spilled onto the floor, while the figure that had its head pierced was twitching on the ground.

That was a fifth grade magical beast, the Phantom Viper! It was one of the most troublesome among the fifth grade magical beasts!

After Ye Xiao killed the viper, he twirled the Sea Dragon Spear in his hand. There was neither dust nor blood on the blade. It then suddenly disappeared. Obviously, it was stored inside the First Floor of the Nine Story Pagoda by Ye Xiao.

He pulled out the Water Spirit Herb. The plump herb was filled with a dense amount of spirit energy.

After storing the Water Spirit Herb and a few other miscellaneous items into the spatial ring, Ye Xiao's eyebrows were knitted together as he could not find the medicinal fruit mentioned by Little Yellow.

"Where's the medicinal fruit that can help me break through to the Martial Saint realm?" Ye Xiao muttered in a low voice as he continued to look for that medicinal fruit.

Suddenly, Ye Xiao's expression became excited as he looked at a small hill next to the waterfall.

"Blood Vermilion Fruit?" Ye Xiao saw a blood red herb that resembled the tail feather of a vermilion bird atop a small hill swaying along with the wind. A dense amount of spirit energy was emanating from the herb.

"Blood Vermilion Fruit is a seventh grade medicinal herb. It is a herb that mutated after coming in contact with the blood of the Vermilion Bird. Those who consume the herb will gain the chance to increase their strength explosively. With this herb, I can definitely make a breakthrough in my cultivation and become a Martial Saint Realm Martial Artist."

Ye Xiao's eyes lit up as he looked at the Blood Vermilion Fruit.

"This Blood Vermilion Fruit is just about to mature. When the time comes, the magical beasts hiding within the valley would probably all appear… I have to be ready for a fight."

Ye Xiao clenched his fists as he started to wait for the Blood Vermilion Fruit to mature.

This Blood Vermilion Fruit was a Seventh Grade Medicinal Herb. Didn't it mean that it can evolve to become an Immortal Rank Medicinal Fruit on the Second Floor of the Nine Story Pagoda?

At that time, how many stages of Martial Saint Realm can he breakthrough by consuming the Immortal Ranked Blood Vermilion Fruit?
