Chapter 365: Crimson Flame Red Fruit

~8 min read 1,428 words

The fruit is entirely crimson, as if forged by raging fire.

Its surface glows with a faint sheen, and a wisp of barely perceptible orange‑red spirit fire coils around it, making it look extraordinary.

What shocked him even more was that the aura emitted by the fruit was unmistakably identical to that of the legendary Crimson Flame Red Fruit!

Crimson Flame Red Fruit!

That is a top‑tier Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasure, containing massive fire energy; it can swiftly replenish cultivation and also temper the flesh.

Even within elite sects, it is a treasure that can be encountered but not sought.

Jiang Feng, when he was cultivating on Kunlun Mountain years ago, had once heard Master Xuan Yuan Zhenren mention the legend of the Crimson Flame Red Fruit.

This fruit's growth conditions are extremely stringent; it only matures deep within secret realms where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is most abundant, and it requires a special fire vein for nourishment—many Cultivators may spend a lifetime without ever seeing one.

But now, the one Tie Zhan holds in his hand—could it be this legendary treasure?

Moreover, judging by Xi Er and Tie Zhan's demeanor, it seems the fruit is not at all rare.

Jiang Feng subconsciously glanced at Xi Er and saw that she also held two Red Spirit Fruits in her hand, smiling brightly at him.

This is absurd, isn't it?

Top‑tier Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures are, in Taoyuan Village, as commonplace as wild fruit?

Jiang Feng was momentarily stunned, staring blankly at the Red Spirit Fruit in Tie Zhan's hand, forgetting to take it.

Seeing Jiang Feng remain motionless for a long while, Tie Zhan thought Jiang Feng simply didn't like this kind of fruit.

He didn't waste words, handed the other Red Spirit Fruit to his mouth, bit it in one gulp, swallowed the seed without spitting, chewing and swallowing it whole, and found it deliciously sweet.

"Hmm, tasty!"

Tie Zhan smacked his lips, a goofy grin spreading across his face, then handed the remaining Red Spirit Fruit to Jiang Feng again.

"Brother Jiang Feng, hurry and eat it, it's that sweet, and it'll give you vigor after you eat it."

Jiang Feng stood in place, instantly tossed about by the wind.

This is a Crimson Flame Red Fruit!

A treasure that countless people scramble for yet never obtain, and Tie Zhan just devours it whole like that?

Tie Zhan really has a blunt, simple nature!

"Jiang Feng, eat quickly, don't be polite."

Xi Er, at this moment, also spoke up beside him.

"These Red Spirit Fruits are abundant on Da Qing Shan; we've eaten them since childhood. After eating, one feels warm all over, especially comfortable."

After speaking, Xi Er took a Red Spirit Fruit from her hand, bit a small piece, a dab of red flesh staining the corner of her mouth, looking especially charming.

"See, it's truly delicious, try it quickly."

Jiang Feng, seeing their sincere expressions, no longer pretended to be picky.

"Alright, I won't be polite then."

Jiang Feng took the Red Spirit Fruit handed by Tie Zhan and took a big bite.

The flesh melted upon entering his mouth, and a burst of sweet juice exploded instantly in his mouth.

Immediately after, a scorching, rich energy slid down his throat into his abdomen, spreading to all limbs and bones.

Jiang Feng could clearly feel that this energy was exceedingly pure, imbued with massive life force, even more domineering than the spiritual energy of Tianyan Spirit Spring.

He hurriedly activated the Zhen Long Prison King Technique, beginning to guide the energy to circulate within his body.

"Whoa! Jiang Feng kid! This fruit is definitely the legendary Crimson Flame Red Fruit! A genuine top‑tier Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasure! Your luck is truly extraordinary!"

Kun Long's voice was full of disbelief, with an unmistakable hint of excitement.

"Never imagined, never imagined, that this remote Taoyuan Village hides so many Crimson Flame Red Fruits!"

He paused, and Kun Long's tone suddenly grew solemn.

"And that girl called Xi Er, she's definitely not ordinary! The energy of the Crimson Flame Red Fruit is so domineering, yet this seemingly untrained little girl can eat it directly without any issue; it seems this girl is far more unfathomable than we imagined!"

Hearing Kun Long's warning, Jiang Feng was instantly startled and subconsciously looked toward Xi Er.

Xi Er was now taking tiny bites of the Red Spirit Fruit, a satisfied smile on her face, looking no different from an ordinary little girl.

But when Jiang Feng thought of her relaxed manner while eating the Crimson Flame Red Fruit, doubts began to surface in his mind.

Tie Zhan, after all, practices pure-body cultivation, training the qi‑blood force; his flesh is immensely robust, so it's plausible he can directly digest the Crimson Flame Red Fruit's energy.

But what about Xi Er?

She appears frail as a reed, yet can swallow the Crimson Flame Red Fruit as if it were an ordinary fruit; this defies all logic!

Jiang Feng's mind filled with doubt, but he quickly suppressed those thoughts.

Regardless, Xi Er saved him, treated him as a friend, and was sincerely kind; he has no reason to pry into others' privacy.

Between friends, trust is the most important.

Jiang Feng stopped overthinking and devoted himself to refining the Crimson Flame Red Fruit's energy.

Tie Zhan and Xi Er did not disturb him, quietly waiting beside him.

Soon after, Jiang Feng completely refined the Crimson Flame Red Fruit's energy.

He inhaled deeply, slowly opened his eyes, and felt his whole body brimming with power.

His internal true Qi had recovered to about sixty percent, internal injuries were largely healed, and he felt clear‑headed and invigorated, stronger by more than one grade.

"How is it, Jiang Feng, do you feel much better?"

Seeing Jiang Feng open his eyes, Xi Er immediately stood, hurried to his side, and asked concernedly.

"Hmm, much better, thank you, and Brother Tie Zhan as well."

Jiang Feng smiled at the two of them and said sincerely.

The effect of the Crimson Flame Red Fruit was astonishing, saving him a great deal of recovery time.

"No need to thank, no need to thank, we're friends!"

Tie Zhan waved his hand, and a bright Laughter showed on his face.

"Brother Jiang Feng, if you like eating this kind of fruit, Next Time I'll pick a huge bunch for you, so you can eat your fill!"

Jiang Feng quickly waved his hand.

"No need to trouble you, This Time I'm already very grateful to you all."

"No trouble, no trouble, there are plenty in the Mountain!"

Tie Zhan said, still wanting to go pick more, but was blocked by Xi Er.

"Brother Tie Zhan, don't go, Jiang Feng just had Recovery, we should go down the Mountain first, don't stay here too long."

Xi Er said.

Tie Zhan thought for a moment, and nodded.

"Alright, you go down the Mountain first, and when Brother Jiang Feng comes Next Time, I'll pick for you again."

After speaking, Tie Zhan looked at Jiang Feng, and a lingering reluctant Divine expression appeared on his face.

"Brother Jiang Feng, I can't go down the Mountain. When you have time you must come to Da Qing Shan to find me and play, I'll take you to pick more tasty fruit!"

"Alright, definitely."

Jiang Feng nodded, feeling a bit moved in his heart. Tie Zhan, though simple and straightforward, truly has a good nature, treats people sincerely.

"Then I'm leaving!"

Tie Zhan waved his hand, then turned and sprinted toward the depths of the dense forest, his massive figure soon disappearing among the trees.

Xi Er watched the direction where Tie Zhan vanished, turned her head and suddenly said to Jiang Feng.

"Let's also go down the Mountain, return to the village and rest well for a while."

Saying that, Xi Er directly grabbed his arm and walked toward the foot of the Mountain.

"Hurry up, the Path down the Mountain is a bit far, let's head back earlier."

Xi Er said, Foot steps light and quick as she moved forward.

Jiang Feng helplessly could only let her pull him, following behind her toward the foot of the Mountain.

The two walked for almost an hour, finally returning to Xi Er's house doorway.

Just after pushing open the courtyard gate and stepping into the yard, a figure suddenly drifted from under the eave of the courtyard, blocking Jiang Feng's way.

It was Yao Lao, who had previously healed Jiang Feng's Injury!
