Chapter 290: Under the Peach Blossom Tree!!!

The prodigies of the Liu clan surrounded the tree and took out all kinds of instruments to check. After a while, then they took out all kinds of tools and prepared to dig the tree out.

Xuan Yi was a little curious.

After all, with their strength, they only needed one blow to do anything.

Why bother digging?

If that was the case, there might be something under the peach tree, and this thing could be easily damaged.

Xuan Yi couldn’t help but perk up, wanting to see what this group of people could dig out.

After they were busy for a while, they pulled out the entire peach tree. Then, Xuan Yi saw that there was a fruit growing under the tree.

This fruit was as big as a human head.

Xuan Yi’s gaze was fixed on this fruit, and there was a slight change in his gaze.

Although it was Xuan Yi’s first time seeing this fruit, it didn’t mean that Xuan Yi had never heard of it.

A human-head fruit.

It only grew under the tree.

It was said that this was because a practitioner had died on the ground, and the spiritual energy hadn’t dispersed yet, forming a fruit on the ground. Under the sufficient nutrients of this fruit, a peach tree would grow on it.

When the peach tree bloomed for three years, this human head would completely become a fruit, giving nutrients to the peach tree.

Moreover, this human head would also become a real human-head fruit.

Not only did it contain the essence of the practitioner’s cultivation, but it also contained the pure spiritual energy that had been nurtured by the spiritual peach tree for three years.

Once a practitioner consumed it, it could greatly increase their cultivation.

Xuan Yi did not feel much about these fruits. After all, with his current cultivation, he no longer needed any fruits.

However, his own disciples had just reached the Sect Master Realm, so these fruits would be of great help to his disciples.

Hence, Xuan Yi was also very interested in these fruits. However, he did not know how these people found them and how they could tell if there were any fruits or not.

Xuan Yi could only restrain his thoughts of making a move and follow behind them to observe.

In any case, Xuan Yi did not have a good impression of them. When they were almost done digging, Xuan Yi would make a move to snatch from them. That would save him a lot of trouble.

However, after everyone dug for a while, they only managed to dig out three human-head fruits.

Moreover, when Xuan Yi saw their movements, it seemed that the human-head fruits were not their ultimate goal. Their real goal was behind the Peach Blossom Forest.

“Hurry up and dig, we don’t have much time!”

“I wonder if we were discovered by anyone when we came in this time.”

“Don’t worry. There are hundreds of millions of spatial turbulence. How could anyone discover our existence from there?”

After one of them finished speaking, he took out a practitioner’s head and threw it under the peach blossom tree.

At this moment, Xuan Yi realized that the peach blossom forest might not have appeared by accident, but by these people.

Every once in a while, they would come here and dig up the fruits before burying another human head.

That’s right. If it wasn’t in here, it would have been uprooted by the practitioners in the outside world.

Xuan Yi couldn’t help but be a little curious. Could this spatial turbulence be used as a back garden by these people?

If that was the case, it was very likely that there were many secret treasures in other places.

In fact, the human-head fruit was not a very precious thing. However, it was rare that each human-head fruit required the head of a practitioner.

Moreover, the growing environment was very warm. Many places on the continent could not be planted.

Even if it could be planted, it would be snatched away by other practitioners very quickly.

Therefore, such fruits were very rare in the entire continent. It was unexpected that there were so many of them here.

However, Xuan Yi was somewhat uncomfortable. It was not that the fruit was a human head, but that these practitioners actually used a human head as a root. It was simply outrageous.

If Xuan Yi did not need these things, he would have jumped out to condemn them.

Soon, the group of people had almost finished picking the human-head fruits. Xuan Yi counted carefully and found that there were about a hundred of them.

This meant that more than a hundred practitioners were dead.

He really didn’t know whether these people picked the corpses of practitioners or killed them to plant the human-head fruits.

Xuan Yi was more inclined to the latter. If it were the former, their movements would definitely be discovered.

The environment here would never change. Even the sky didn’t change much.

After they finished picking the human-head fruits, the group headed to their next destination.

At the small lake behind the Peach Blossom Forest.

Xuan Yi followed closely behind.

“Recently, these spiritual springs have been full of spiritual energy!”

“Of course. As long as we give it time, our spiritual spring will become more and more full of spiritual energy. It might even become a divine spring.”

The divine spring was an existence that was one level higher than the spiritual spring.

The spiritual spring could only allow practitioners below the Sage Realm to obtain benefits and increase their cultivation. However, it didn’t have much benefits for those above the Sage Realm.

However, the divine spring would bring great benefits to those above the Sage Realm.

Even those at the Heavenly King Realm would be able to obtain decent improvements.

It could be said that once the divine spring appeared, it could even attract the attention of Heavenly King Realm experts.

However, the environment here was very secretive. Even those at the Heavenly King Realm would find it difficult to detect it.

Otherwise, just based on the spiritual energy density of the spiritual spring, it was not something that people like them could keep privately. It would definitely have been snatched away long ago.

After seeing this spiritual spring, Xuan Yi’s interest became even more intense.

According to Xuan Yi’s previous thoughts, he wanted to take away all the treasures here.

However, seeing that the treasures here were so good and secretive, Xuan Yi suddenly did not want to take away these treasures. Instead, he wanted to move the entire island into his pocket.

He just did not know if there was any way to take all these things into his pocket.

The entire island was a very large area.

It definitely couldn’t fit in his pocket.

Xuan Yi thought for a long time but couldn’t think of any way. The only way was to kill everyone who knew about this place and then let only himself know. That would be equivalent to taking this place for himself.

Xuan Yi wasn’t in a hurry to make a move. Instead, he continued to follow this group of prodigies from the Liu clan.

Xuan Yi did not forget that there was still a group of people who had yet to appear. Xuan Yi did not know what these people were up to.

The only thing he could be sure of was that they definitely did not have any good intentions.

The people from the Liu clan began to fill up the spiritual spring water. The stream of spring water was very large, almost surrounding the entire island.

They did not just fill up any spring water. They only took from the places where the spiritual energy was relatively dense.

It seemed that they had treated this place as their own private backyard.

They had gained a lot from the things on this island.

It was even possible that these few prodigies had been raised by this island.

This made Xuan Yi even more confused. What was there to be proud of, becoming a prodigy with these things?

As long as the talent wasn’t particularly bad, these things could pile up an ordinary practitioner to the level of a prodigy.
