Even if it can't be used to make currency, he wouldn't mind keeping the tree if it had value.
Yang Hongyan and Bai Susu, who were in the distance, also noticed the magical fruit growing on the tree in the spirit field and both showed surprise.
Yang Hongyan was surprised because the fruit was very similar to a common hybrid cucumber from Blue Star; both were baby-shaped and palm-sized.
Bai Susu was surprised because she saw a large number of fragments of rules manifesting in the world, being absorbed by those baby-shaped fruits.
"This...is this the legendary Divine Infant Fruit?" Bai Susu exclaimed in surprise.
"Divine Infant Fruit?" Yang Hongyan asked in confusion.
“The Divine Infant Fruit is a legendary fruit from the celestial realm. In my tens of thousands of years of lifespan, I have only seen it once in the Trading City!” Bai Susu said.
Tens of thousands of years?!
Yang Hongyan was shocked. This Bai Susu, who didn't seem to be much older than her, was actually so old...?
At the same time, she was also surprised by the lifespan of cultivators, who could actually live so long.
"How does the Divine Infant Fruit compare to the Enlightenment Tree?" Yang Shen asked from the spirit field.
“It can’t be compared,” Bai Susu replied. “The leaves of the Enlightenment Tree can help people achieve enlightenment. It has miraculous effects on people at high levels, but its effects on people at low levels are average. Moreover, the effect is best when you are next to the Enlightenment Tree.”
She paused, then continued, "But the Divine Infant Fruit is said to bloom every 100,000 years, bear fruit every 100,000 years, and mature every 100,000 years. Even a mortal, if they eat just one Divine Infant Fruit, can obtain a rule, ignite a divine fire, and ascend to immortality on the spot!"
"A mortal ignites a divine fire and ascends to immortality on the spot?!"
Not only was Yang Hongyan shocked, but Yang Shen was also extremely shocked.
A single fruit can ignite a divine fire within a person, granting them a divine position—this is simply defying the heavens!
However, the saying "it takes 100,000 years to bloom, 100,000 years to bear fruit, and 100,000 years to mature" sounds so familiar.
Isn't this the same as the name "ginseng fruit"?
However, the ginseng fruit takes three thousand years to flower, three thousand years to bear fruit, and three thousand years to mature, so the time frame is not that long.
“That’s what they say, but actually the Divine Infant Fruit isn’t really that heaven-defying. If a mortal were to become a god directly, he would only be the weakest of the gods. Apart from his supernatural powers, his other abilities would not even be comparable to those in the Unity Realm.” Bai Susu added, “Therefore, the Divine Infant Fruit is most effective when used on those who cannot break through to the Unity Realm.”
Yang Shen nodded, agreeing with this view. After all, ordinary mortals lack the necessary foundation, and trying to force them to become gods in one step would inevitably lead to serious consequences.
Of course, compared to the allure of becoming a god, few people would care about these side effects. The appearance of a Divine Infant Fruit would definitely cause a bloodbath.
Under Yang Shen's encouragement, the fruit on the tree that looked very much like a ginseng fruit tree gradually ripened.
Once ripe, the fruits no longer absorb the fragments of rules; they simply emit a seven-colored light.
The palm-sized fruits, resembling babies sitting cross-legged, hang on the branches. Even from a distance, just smelling their fragrance gives one a sense of spiritual elevation.
"Gurgle..."
Yang Hongyan and Bai Susu couldn't help but swallow, because they felt their body cells were excited, as if eating that fruit would be of great benefit to them.
Moreover, the mere aroma of fruit made their mouths water.
Yang Shen picked one and tasted it, taking a bite and savoring the lingering fragrance.
Once the fruit pulp is swallowed, it quickly transforms into energy and spreads throughout the body, making every cell in the body seem to feel joyful.
"How was it? How was it?"
"How does it feel? Are you about to become a god in one step?"
Bai Susu and Yang Hongyan rushed over, asking expectantly, and couldn't help but want to pick one for themselves to try.
"It tastes good."
Yang Shen smacked his lips.
Yes, it tastes good, that's all. Perhaps his level is too high, because this fruit has no effect on him.
Its only effect is to satisfy cravings.
"That……"
The two women quickly spoke up.
"It's not poisonous, you can pick it yourselves. But don't eat too much."
As Yang Shen spoke, he left the tree with a look of disgust, because what he wanted was a leafy plant like the Enlightenment Tree. Although the 'Ginseng Fruit' was also very powerful, it had no effect on him.
"Uh-huh……"
"Then we won't stand on ceremony!"
Bai Susu and Yang Hongyan were immediately excited and each picked a ginseng fruit.
This ginseng fruit isn't as magical as the legends on Earth suggest; you can just pick it with your hands and it won't escape.
However, the two women did not consume it directly here. They were not as extraordinary as Yang Shen, who dared to eat this fruit as an ordinary fruit.
"Huh, what's this?" Suddenly, Yang Hongyan noticed another crop in the spirit field, which was the same divine ginseng from before. However, the divine ginseng she saw now was different from the one she had seen before, so she didn't recognize it.
Bai Susu also saw it and was about to study it when she saw the divine ginseng rise from the ground and run away in disgust, continuing to take root more than ten meters away, trying to absorb the nutrients in the spiritual field and the energy between heaven and earth.
This scene left the two women astonished. Had the ginseng become a spirit? But it didn't seem afraid of them at all...
To Bai Susu's surprise, amidst the rich energy of heaven and earth, there were also some fragments of rules that were absorbed by the divine ginseng.
Perhaps because Yang Shen didn't accelerate its growth, the divine ginseng's absorption of rule fragments wasn't as terrifying as that of the ginseng fruit.
Yang Shen, who had already reached the outside of the spirit field, was about to continue creating new seeds when he suddenly seemed to sense something and looked up.
In an instant, his gaze pierced through time and space, reaching into the distant starry sky, where an infected behemoth suddenly went berserk, beginning to slaughter and devour everything in its path.
