Eternal Life: My Lifespan Increases Daily

Chapter 804: Chapter 509: Red Source Immortal Tree, Blessed Fruit! (Two-in-One)

As his footsteps quickened, his form changed, his hair grew, and he pressed his hands to the ground with all four limbs exerting force, suddenly leaping up like a rocket, climbing with incredible speed.

In the blink of an eye, he was hundreds of meters in the air, getting closer and closer to that hanging Immortal Fruit.

But at this moment, the life-taking vines shot out again, chasing after the Leopard Great Demon.

The Leopard Great Demon sprayed yellow mist, concealing himself within it and disappearing from sight instantly.

The vines pounced but missed their target, unable to entangle the Leopard Great Demon.

Song Changming wiped a finger between his brows, activating the Spirit Rhinoceros Eye Technique, and immediately tracked the Leopard Great Demon’s hidden movements.

In just a brief moment, the opponent was about to touch the nearest hanging crimson Immortal Fruit.

Yet from the thick branches of the Immortal Tree, several vines extended out, piercing towards the Leopard Great Demon.

Evidently, his skill of concealing his form was ineffective against Song Changming as well as to this Immortal Tree.

Nevertheless, the Leopard Demon was clearly more agile, even amidst the whole Black Mountain’s Repulsive Force, he could still maneuver sharply, escaping smoothly even as several vines interspersed and entangled.

A hand with leopard claws pressed firmly upon the Immortal Fruit.

The crimson Immortal Fruit reacted instantly, transforming into a large puddle of juice as if it fell to the ground.

But this time, the juice was directly swallowed by the Leopard Demon with a wide open mouth.

The Immortal Tree suddenly shook, and the nearby Old Tree Demon was the first to sense the anger transmitted by the Immortal Tree.

In the next moment, hundreds and thousands of vines burst out, weaving into a heavenly net to envelop the Leopard Great Demon.

”Damn it!” The Leopard Demon couldn’t escape in time, quickly wielding Demon Technique, tearing down with his claws, trying to break through this net.

However, the vines were extremely tough, just as the Lion King couldn’t break free before, once trapped it was the same for him.

”Ah!!”

The Leopard Demon let out a piercing scream, but neither the onlookers nor the demons could see the situation beneath the vine’s cover.

After his shout, no more sound or movement came from him.

”Look at the tree!”

Someone shouted, and the crowd looked.

They saw a small yellow flower bloom suddenly at the spot on the thick branch where the Immortal Fruit was picked.

As the flower bloomed, another crimson Immortal Fruit grew back, ballooning like an inflated bubble, swelling until it turned into the size of a small house.

Upon seeing this newly appeared Immortal Fruit, for some reason, everyone and all the Great Demons felt an inexplicable chill in their hearts.

The chill came from this ancient giant tree.

When the vines scattered and retracted, the Leopard Demon fell from the air, landing next to the already deceased Lion Demon.

Equally shriveled, equally devoid of life force.

The Leopard Demon’s death was unsurprising, but the newly grown tree fruit caused everyone to draw connections.

Where did the tree fruit come from?

”Could they have grown using the two Great Demons as nourishment...” Situ Ming couldn’t help but mutter, voicing what everyone was thinking.

Is the so-called Ancient Immortal Tree really a great opportunity?

An Immortal Tree nurtured by Heaven and Earth? Or a demon tree that devours people?

”Nether Iron, what exactly is going on?” The King of the Nine Netherworlds couldn’t help but question the Old Tree Demon.

After all, it was initially this old man who declared this ancient giant tree as an Immortal Tree.

He thought, the Old Tree Demon should know more about this tree.

The King of the Nine Netherworlds’ probing also attracted the attention of other Great Demons.

”Elder Tie, stop hiding something, or don’t blame us for being rude!” Another Great Demon stepped forward, impatiently pressing in a cold tone.

Many demons began to suspect that the Old Tree Demon had ulterior motives and was deliberately withholding secrets.

Some even thought that the Old Tree Demon manipulated this ancient giant tree, trying to eliminate them using the tree’s power.

Feeling the unfriendly stares from the demons, the Old Tree Demon’s thoughts also spun, recalling various features and signs of this ancient giant tree, suddenly corresponding to some information deep in his mind.

”Tree grows ten thousand meters, root buried hundred miles, fruit dyed with blood, devours blood and flesh... it must be that Red Source Immortal Tree!” The Old Tree Demon suddenly murmured.

He finally recognized the origin of this tree’s roots.

In ancient times, it was common for plants to become spirits, and there were numerous divine trees and Immortal Trees nurtured by Heaven and Earth.

As a member of the tree demon clan who lived for three thousand years, he more or less knew some secret knowledge about these ancient divine trees and Immortal Trees.

Divine trees and Immortal Trees never referred to just one kind, and the Red Source Immortal Tree he spoke of was one example.

”Red Source Immortal Tree?”

Though the Old Tree Demon knew this tree, others, humans and demons alike, found it very strange and had never heard this name.

Though unsure of the connection between this tree and the word ’Immortal’, merely hearing the Old Tree Demon’s brief description, one could infer the tree was not benevolent!

Blood-devouring and flesh-ingesting, merely hearing the words was fierce.

”Nether Iron, do you think this tree can be approached, and the fruit on the tree can be taken?” The King of the Nine Netherworlds also did not know the name of the Red Source Immortal Tree, directly asking the key question.

The Old Tree Demon reverted to his old man’s appearance, hunched over, shaking his head and saying, ”The little old man knows limited information, only knows that this tree is named Immortal Tree solely because the Red Source Fruit it bears is a genuinely blessed fruit!

Ordinary creatures eating one will be like knocking on the door of immortality, undergoing a heaven-and-earth-shattering transformation!

As for the danger of this tree, you all just witnessed it...”

The Old Tree Demon did not conceal, sharing all the information he knew, both with humans and demons.

He certainly didn’t want to be a thorn in everyone’s side.

”I’ll try!” Another Bird Race Great Demon, upon hearing, grew more interested in the suspended red fruit above, and moved, braving the Repulsive Force with flapping wings flying towards it.

He flew as high as possible, trying to avoid the vine entanglement from the Red Source Immortal Tree.

But the tree’s vines, like its roots, were so many that they were everywhere, popping out like venomous snakes, coiling towards the Bird Race Great Demon.

The Bird Race Great Demon flapped his wings, stirring heavy whirlwinds, not only wanting to repel the vines but also attempting to shake the tree’s foundation, even intending to uproot it.

However, the Immortal Tree, being an Immortal Tree, wouldn’t be easily shaken like an ordinary exotic tree.

So much so, even the vines were not blown away by the demon winds, still firmly wrapping towards the Bird Race Great Demon.

The Bird Demon relied on his aerial agility, dodging left and right, barely avoiding the vines, seeing him about to touch the Red Source Blessed Fruit, yet ultimately his wings were entangled by a vine.

The Bird Demon panicked, blocked and more vines quickly climbed all over his demon body.

At this moment, the Bird Demon disregarded everything else, directly transforming into a complete form of Demon Beast.

A bird flapping its wings trying to fly into the sky, but unfortunately entangled by vines, unable to fly away, dragged back to the Immortal Tree, pulled into the dense branches and leaves above.

After that, there was no more movement.

Even the shriveled corpse of the Bird Demon didn’t fall from the tree this time, as if swallowed clean by the Immortal Tree, not leaving even a bone fragment.

Meanwhile, Song Changming noticed a little white flower budding on the tree amidst the Spiritual Mist, though it hadn’t borne fruit yet, evident that the so-called Immortal Tree had absorbed nutrients from the Great Demon’s flesh and blood to form the flower seed.

Briefly, three Great Demons in succession were devoured by this Immortal Tree, causing many other Great Demons to hesitate.

”Are you going, elder brother?” Chong Yin, who narrowly escaped death, stared evilly at Song Changming for a long time, suddenly asking his two fellow tribesmen.

At this moment, although he wanted vengeance on Song Changming, his heavily injured body truly had no means.

The Immortal Tree’s resurgence is indeed untimely.

Compared to avenging Song Changming, the focus is how to obtain the Red Source Fruit mentioned by the Old Tree Demon, or even relocate this Immortal Tree from the Celestial Ruins Realm.

”I’ll give it a try.” Chong Hao said.
