Chapter 183: Surprise!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Familiar with the route, he soon arrived at the underground cave.

‘As soon as he walked out of the passage, Su Jingxing looked up at the Concentration Fruit Tree

The next second, a smile formed on his face.

They had all ripened!

In the empty underground cave, on the glowing Concentration Fruit Tree, green Concentration Fruits were swaying and weighing down their branches.

At one glance, there were at least 50 of them, if not 70.

The fully ripened Concentration Fruits exuded a special fragrance that wafted through the cave.

With the fragrance of dozens of Concentration Fruits gathered together, the fragrance that filled the air made one feel indescribably comfortable.

In the corner of the underground river, Su Jingxing even saw fish leaping out of the water from time to time, trying to absorb the fragrance.

Snakes, centipedes, scorpions, lizards… All kinds of small animals were gathered under the Concentration Fruit Tree. They did not interfere with each other as they breathed in and out.

Anumber of animals even climbed up the Concentration Fruit Tree and wrapped themselves around its branches, breathing hard as they stuck to the fruits.

All lifeforms that possessed natural instincts would be attracted to heavenly treasures that could increase one’s soul power.

Su Jingxing was already mentally prepared for this.

So he wasn’t too surprised. Moving into the air, he floated over.

‘As soon as he got close to the Concentration Fruit Tree, he circulation a hundred years of cultivation and formed a suppressive force that drove away the animals on the tree.

Apart from a few animals that fled in fear, the other animals, while fearful, continued to stay rooted to their spots.

‘When Su Jingxing saw this, he immediately took out his treasure throwing knives. Using his true energy, he circled around the Concentration Fruit Tree. From time to time, he would dart between the leaves, producing splashes of blood or various colored liquids.

Moments later, all the animals on the tree were cleared.

Su Jingxing put away the throwing daggers and picked the fruits.

For every one he picked, he put it into his palm space.

All the Concentration Fruits were ripe, Su Jingxing picked all of them and got a total of 52 fruits.

Compared to the tall Concentration Fruit Tree, 52 fruits was considered too little.

But Su Jingxing was already satisfied.

Asingle Concentration Spirit Fruit could unleash its full potential.

52 of them should be enough for him to visualize a complete Heaven Trampling Elephant.

With this in mind, Su Jingxing decisively left the underground cave and returned to the surface. He left the Tai Ming Mountain Reservoir and flew towards the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain.

He increased his speed to the maximum and returned home on Thunderbolt.

The sun had not risen yet, and Su Jingxing had deliberately chosen to go pick the Concentration Fruits at this time.

He made his way back quickly. The roads and the riverbank remained quiet and deserted.

After ensuring that there was no disruptions around, Su Jingxing sat cross-legged on the bed. He took out the Concentration Fruit from his palm space. Using the method he had read in the book, he swallowed it.

In less than five seconds, a refreshing energy gushed out of his stomach. Without Su Jingxing’s control, it automatically coursed through his veins, blood vessels, bones, and internal organs. Everywhere it passed, there was an indescribably pleasant sensation.

When it reached his brain, Su Jingxing felt an indescribable sense of clarity and ease.

Invisibly, he felt an strange sense of excitement, as though he wanted to walk on air.

Poisonous?

No, addiction?

After digesting the energy of one fruit, Su Jingxing fell into deep thought.

The process of consuming the Concentration Fruit and boosting one’s soul power would cause one to be addicted.

This was no small matter.

If things went south, Su Jingxing might die before he even managed to visualize the Heaven Trampling Elephant.

I cannot be in a rush!

“Tl have to wait and move slowly.”

Su Jingxing frowned. “I wonder if this side effect comes from the Concentration Fruit or from the process of accelerating its maturation?”

Numerous decades required for maturation had been forcefully completed in half a month by Su Jingxing.

Su Jingxing was mentally prepared for any problems with the fruits he ultimately harvested.

Putting everything else aside, the effects would definitely be greatly reduced.

Now that there was an additional side effect of addiction, he wasn’t anxious, despite feeling surprised.

Now that things had come to this, there was no point in panicking.

He would wait for some time to see if there were any abnormalities and he would know whether the situation was good or bad.

At this thought, Su Jingxing calmed himself down and waited for his body’s reaction.

And.

Ten minutes later, the strange, floating sensation was gone.

Just in case, Su Jingxing waited for another half an hour.

After confirming that he was truly fine, he let out a breath.

“It’s not that bad.”

There were side effects, but they were extremely minor.

‘As soon as the addiction kicked in, it disappeared without a follow-up.

This was also related to his body’s resilience.

Now that Su Jingxing’s physical body had reached the limits of a mortal, his resistance was undoubtedly stronger than that of ordinary people.

Ordinary martial artists probably wouldn’t be able to shake the feeling off so easily.

Of course,

for safety’s sake, Su Jingxing swallowed the second Concentration Fruit and waited for half an hour before taking out the third.

In any case, he spent half an hour digesting every fruit.

Over the next few days, Su Jingxing stayed in his room, constantly consuming Concentration Fruit to increase his soul power.

‘When he finished eating all 52 fruits and completely absorbing the energy —

(Card +21]

A familiar notification popped up in his mind.

Su Jingxing, who was about to visualize the Heaven Trampling Elephant was startled.

‘When he realized what was going on, his eyes widened in shock.

“How is that possible…”

He could automatically extract cards while he was home.

The linear distance between small courtyard at the foot of the mountain and the crematorium was nearly 500 meters.

Between them was the Sky Water River, the protective forest, the green belt, and a road.

With the boost of his soul power, an increase in extraction range was within Su Jingxing’s expectations.

But for it to suddenly increase to 500 meters was very shocking.

Of course, this “shock” was a “joy” for Su Jingxing.

His extraction range was close to 500 meters, and he could extract cards by sitting at home.

If he didn’t head out to collect corpses, Su Jingxing wouldn’t even need to go to the crematorium!

Surprise.

What a big, pleasant surprise.

In high spirits, Su Jingxing tried to concentrate and sense his surroundings.

He wanted to test whether his perception had changed with the increase in his soul power.

Previously, Su Jingxing could only sense a range of 70 to 80 meters around him.

This was a type of spiritual perception that originated from one’s soul. It was like a radar that could quickly lock onto its target, track, or search within its range.

It was much stronger than most secret abilities.

It could be mastered with some experimentation.

At this moment, Su Jingxing focused his attention and released his perception. Instantly, the range was pushed to its maximum, and he did not encounter any obstruction he usually did. Immediately, he continued to extend his perception outward.

100 meters, 200 meters, 300 meters.

700 meters, 800 meters.

1000 meters!

‘When the range reached a thousand meters, Su Jingxing’s senses encountered an invisible “wall”.

This meant that he had reached the limit.

His extreme perception range of a thousand meters was just as great a surprise as the extraction range of nearly 500 meters!
