Chapter 1437: Green Luo Fruit

Han Li did not stand on ceremony and immediately followed a wave of Sky Roc people toward a hall gate on the second level nearby. Web

Retracting his wings and flickering his body, he entered the gate just like a true Sky Roc person.

A bustling sound reached his ears, and after sweeping his gaze, Han Li's eyes flickered several times.

This place was a small plaza several hundred feet in size, with shops of various sizes lining the area, and hundreds of Sky Roc people were entering and exiting these shops.

In the center of the plaza stood a green stone pillar over ten feet high, with light flickering on it, vaguely inscribed with something.

Under the stone pillar, more than a dozen people were looking up at the things on the pillar, discussing something in low voices.

Han Li looked at the stone pillar and walked over curiously.

He saw that the surface of the stone pillar was divided into two, covered with dense text; one half flickered with red light, while the other half glowed with green light.

Han Li looked closely at the two types of text. He discovered that these were all names of items; some were very familiar, while others were very strange.

These characters appeared and disappeared, as if they were rolling in turns on the surface of the stone pillar.

At the base of the stone pillar, a middle-aged man who looked like a guard was sitting cross-legged with his eyes half-closed.

This is...

After scanning the two types of text and the man's face below, Han Li felt a bit suspicious.

Just then, a man in a gray robe squeezed out of the crowd below and handed a few spirit stones to the guard under the stone pillar.

The middle-aged guard opened his eyes, nodded, and then took a short red rod from his large sleeve and handed it to the man.

This man took the red rod and waved it rapidly over a blank space on the stone pillar.

Although the man's movements were extremely fast, Han Li's eyes flashed with blue light, and he saw it clearly.

Where the short rod waved, several bright red characters appeared, flashing and sinking into the stone pillar, disappearing.

A moment later, these red characters emerged in the original place.

A look of surprise appeared on Han Li's face.

After watching for a while, another person walked out. However, this person ignored the middle-aged guard, instead spreading his wings and flying up several feet, pointing his finger at several green characters on the stone pillar.

Immediately, the characters glowed with a green light, quickly sinking into the person's finger, causing his entire body to shine with spiritual light.

The Sky Roc person who pointed at the characters tilted his head, his eyes narrowed as if he were receiving some information. After a while, he withdrew his finger, turned around, and flew straight toward the hall gate.

Several more people below followed the example of the first two, either writing something on the stone pillar or flying to the stone pillar to touch the red and green characters.

Seeing this, Han Li touched his chin, feeling a bit enlightened in his heart.

To verify his guess, he walked forward without ceremony and pointed his finger at a row of green characters at the bottom of the stone pillar.

The characters flashed with green light, and a chill rushed into his brain. A line of information appeared in Han Li's mind.

"Selling first-grade Flowing Light Wood, unlimited quantity, 30,000 spirit stones per square, Shop No. 31, Hall 5, Level 4!"

Han Li's lips twitched, and his body moved as he turned to the other side of the stone pillar, pointing his finger at a row of red characters.

The same information appeared in his mind.

"Acquiring one complete Phoenix Tail Bird skeleton, price negotiable, Shop No. 10, Hall 2, Level 9!"

Han Li's expression became a bit strange.

He didn't expect these Sky Roc people to use this method to sell or acquire items.

Obviously, the things that could be posted on the stone pillar were urgent or particularly rare items, which could be considered quite ingenious.

In this way, as long as someone saw the message on the stone pillar, they could go directly to the shop left behind to trade. It was truly much more convenient.

And this method didn't look difficult; it seemed it could be completely imitated in human markets.

Thinking this, Han Li took a few steps back and began to carefully observe the green characters selling items.

He intended to scan the information once to see if there was anything he was interested in.

Although there were many item names that were different due to racial differences, for some reason, the names of most rare items were almost the same. Especially for some material items that were highly valued by both races, the names were exactly the same.

This matter had made Han Li very surprised for a long time when he first came into contact with the Flying Spirit Race's language and writing.

However, although this matter was a bit strange, he would naturally not get to the bottom of it.

He was now just looking up and silently watching the stone pillar without a word.

His gaze focused, and Han Li suddenly stared at several green characters that had just emerged on the stone pillar, his heart jumping suddenly.

"Green Luo Fruit! There is actually this thing for sale here." A flush appeared on Han Li's face, and he could no longer hide his ecstasy.

This fruit was the main ingredient for the legendary holy medicine "Heaven Luo Pill," and for Han Li, it was definitely one of the spirit fruits he wanted most.

Although this spirit pill did not have the heaven-defying effect of the Black Flame Pill—where three pills could increase a Spirit Severing late-stage cultivator's breakthrough chance by several percent—in the eyes of most high-level cultivators, and even those old monsters above the Body Integration stage, its value was definitely far greater than that of the Black Flame Pill.

Taking the Heaven Luo Pill alone could help Spirit Severing cultivators break through bottlenecks, but in reality, most people did not use it this way. Most people who obtained this spirit pill used it in combination with other spirit medicines.

This was because the medicinal properties of the Heaven Luo Pill were very unique; it could perfectly fuse with most spirit medicines without any conflict. The most incredible thing was that if taken together with other finished spirit medicines, there was a certain chance to increase the medicinal properties of other spirit pills by thirty to nearly fifty percent.

This meant that if Han Li took a spirit pill that could increase his magic power by ten years in one go, if taken together with a Heaven Luo Pill, there was a certain probability that it would increase his cultivation by twelve to fifteen years. And this effect was valid for spirit pills of any tier.

In this way, the more valuable and rare the spirit pills in the hands of human cultivators, the more they wanted to take them together with a Heaven Luo Pill. If they were lucky and the effect of the spirit pill increased by several percent out of thin air, it was naturally something they would laugh about in their dreams.

As for the probability of the Heaven Luo Pill taking effect, it was really hard to say.

There were people who took three or four of these spirit pills in a row, and each one made the effect of the spirit medicine taken with it increase greatly.

There were also people who went bankrupt and bought seven or eight Heaven Luo Pills in one go, intending to gamble everything. But it made the person vomit blood because not a single one took effect.

Although the probability of the Heaven Luo Pill assisting was so strange, countless cultivators had still been crazy about this spirit pill since it was born.

The Green Luo Fruit near the human race had been completely dug up in just over a thousand years.

What was depressing was that this Green Luo Fruit took five or six thousand years to mature. And each spirit tree could only bear one such fruit; once picked, the entire fruit tree would completely lose its spiritual energy and become an ordinary tree from then on.

Therefore, even if large sects and forces wanted to spend the effort to cultivate this fruit in large quantities, it was simply a matter of the gains not being worth the losses.

So in the years to come, only occasionally would someone find a few such fruits from the depths of the wilderness, and the birth of each Heaven Luo Pill would make those high-level cultivators fight over it. Most of them fell into the hands of those old monsters above the Body Integration stage.

When Han Li first heard of this spirit fruit in Sky Abyss City, he was naturally very interested in it and dreamed of using Green Liquid to cultivate this spirit fruit in large quantities.

But unfortunately, the Green Luo Fruit—or rather its seeds—was also a rare spirit medicine and could not be preserved in the world for too long. Therefore, even in Sky Abyss City, which gathered almost all the spirit flowers and fruits of the three realms and seven lands, he could not find a single spirit fruit seed.

Therefore, Han Li could only sigh in his heart.

Now that he saw this spirit medicine on the stone pillar, how could his heart not jump wildly, almost unable to control himself.

For a moment, Han Li didn't care about looking at other things, immediately spreading the wings on his back and flying upward. After a flicker, he reached the middle of the stone pillar and placed his finger on the characters marked "Green Luo Fruit."

As the green light shone, a row of information instantly entered his mind.

But after seeing the content of the information clearly, his brow furrowed.

"Actually requires a face-to-face talk, this is probably a bit troublesome." Han Li muttered, and the excitement on his face immediately subsided by more than half.

But since there was hope of obtaining the Green Luo Fruit, even if it was a thorny matter, he would never give up.

Therefore, after pondering in the air for a moment, Han Li turned into a ball of green light and flew out of the place.

Once out of the hall gate, he flew straight to the higher levels. After reaching the ninth level in one go, he flew forward along the passage.

After a while, Han Li glanced at the number marked above a certain hall gate and flew in without hesitation.

The hall was exactly the same as the previous one; both the area and the furnishings seemed to be copied from the same mold.

The Sky Roc people here were obviously much rarer than those on the lower levels, with only a few dozen people.

After Han Li narrowed his eyes and scanned the shops around the hall, his eyes flashed with brilliance, and he walked toward a medium-sized shop in the corner of the hall.

This shop was divided into two levels, and the interior was covered by a layer of green light curtain, while a light red jade plaque hung at the door, with the words "Wan Lei Workshop" flickering on it.

Han Li's gaze swept over the jade plaque, a look of surprise flashed by, and then his face returned to normal.

With a flicker of his body, he entered behind the light curtain without hesitation.

His eyes brightened, and a spacious room of thirty or forty feet appeared before him.

A dark, shiny wooden table, several light yellow wooden chairs, and seven or eight somewhat dilapidated wooden shelves piled with some messy goods—this was all the furniture here.

And besides a withered middle-aged man standing behind the wooden table who looked like the shopkeeper, there were two other Sky Roc people.

After Han Li quietly scanned these three people with his spiritual sense, his expression couldn't help but change slightly.
