Chapter 334: The Ginseng Fruit Tree is Actually Pulling a Scam!

Before long.

Qingfeng and Mingyue carried six Ginseng Fruits into the main hall.

Ginseng Fruit is extremely special; it cannot come into contact with anything containing the Five Elements. The fruit falls upon meeting metal, withers upon meeting wood, dissolves upon meeting water, scorches upon meeting fire, and sinks into the earth upon meeting soil.

It can be said that the Five Elements encompass most substances in the world; picking them requires the use of special immortal implements and must be supported by immortal spiritual objects.

As the two young Daoist acolytes walked in, the fragrance of the Ginseng Fruit, mixed with immortal Qi, drifted out, causing one's Primordial Spirit to flutter and creating a sensation of floating upon the clouds.

Zhu Bajie's eyes went straight, staring fixedly at the Ginseng Fruit.

Even Sun Wukong could not help but cast his gaze over; this thing seemed to taste even better than a Flat Peach.

"Master, the Ginseng Fruit has been picked."

Qingfeng and Mingyue said in unison.

"Good."

"Everyone, please partake," Zhenyuanzi said warmly.

Zhu Bajie walked forward, about to take a Ginseng Fruit to consume, while muttering to himself:

"Good fortune, great good fortune indeed."

However, just as he was a hair's breadth away from the Ginseng Fruit, Sun Wukong kicked Zhu Bajie flying.

Zhu Bajie climbed up, clutching his buttocks, and complained, "Stinking monkey, what are you doing?"

"You blockhead, Master hasn't eaten yet. What are you eating for?"

"Besides, as the saying goes, one does not accept a reward without merit. This fruit is so heaven-defying, can you afford the Karma?"

Although Sun Wukong's experience was not as extensive as Bajie's, his cunning was not shallow, and he could distinguish the gravity of the situation.

In their party, apart from Master who was worthy of eating it, which of them monsters was fit to eat Ginseng Fruit?

This Zhenyuanzi appeared to be a good-natured person on the surface, but he was likely hiding some conspiracy to deal with Master behind the scenes.

Zhu Bajie was not stupid either; he knew he had been dizzied by the temptation of the Ginseng Fruit, but he was still somewhat unwilling.

"They say monkeys are clever, monkeys are clever. Great Saint, you have grown quite a bit in these five hundred years.

If you had this level of cunning five hundred years ago, you wouldn't have been suppressed for five hundred years," Zhenyuanzi said.

"Great Immortal, why bring up the past?" Sun Wukong said.

"Daoist Brother, thank you for your kindness. However, this Ginseng Fruit is indeed too precious," Xuanzang said.

Qingfeng and Mingyue heard this and were moved.

If these six good people didn't eat the Ginseng Fruit, and the Great Immortal didn't eat it either, then the final benefit would surely fall to them.

Zhenyuanzi said, "Xuanzang, you and I have a bit of Karma from the past. You can eat this Ginseng Fruit, and your disciples can eat it too; there is no need to worry."

"Past Karma, could you elaborate, Daoist Brother?" Xuanzang asked.

"Heavenly secrets must not be leaked," Zhenyuanzi said mysteriously.

"Master, I think Zhenyuan Daxian has good intentions. We shouldn't let him down; let's just eat it.

Furthermore, the Great Immortal is the Ancestor of Earth Immortals; he wouldn't play games with us," Zhu Bajie said.

"This dead pig."

Qingfeng and Mingyue inwardly cursed Zhu Bajie for being a glutton.

At this moment, Xuanzang also could not figure out what kind of scheme Zhenyuanzi was planning.

Seeing this, Zhenyuanzi added:

"Xuanzang, this poor Daoist was once an old acquaintance of Ancestral Witch Houtu in the Underworld, so you need not worry."

Mentioning Houtu, Xuanzang looked at the Zhenyuanzi before him again, and a thousand thoughts flashed through his mind.

Chat Group.

Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "Xuan Ge, even if you don't eat it, you should accept it; let me have a sniff."

First Golden Core of Kyushu: "You're dreaming! But I'm still envious!"

Ancestral Witch Houtu: "Did this Zhenyuanzi just mention me!"

Diviner: "He mentioned it, but it should be the Ancestral Witch Houtu of Holy Monk Xuanzang's world."

Wudang Old Immortal: "For this old Daoist to see Zhenyuan Daxian in this lifetime, it is truly a blessing of three lifetimes."

Taitan Wang Mieba: "Is this fruit really that delicious?"

Playboy: "Purple potato monster, you don't know a thing. This is an Eastern divine fruit; eat one and you will attain eternal youth and immortality."

Taitan Wang Mieba: "Immortality? Is it that hard?"

Demon Queen: "Tsk tsk tsk, look, is that even human language?"

I Am Not Sai Tuzi: "Although I don't understand, it still feels very impressive."

Scripture Seeker: "As the saying goes, one does not accept a reward without merit. Do you guys think I should take this Ginseng Fruit?"

First Golden Core of Kyushu: "My advice is to take it. Not taking advantage of a bargain makes you a turtle."

Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "Definitely take it. Besides, in the original work, Zhenyuan Daxian did indeed give away Ginseng Fruit.

Ginseng Fruit might be very precious to ordinary people, but to Zhenyuan Daxian, it's just average."

Immortal King Anlan: "Xuan Ge, take it. Such divine objects are rare to come by. Even if you don't need it, you can give it to me."

Hua Xiaogu: "Don't you dare have designs on Master."

Zui Ai He Shounai: "An Lao Liu, you're thinking a bit too much."

Spring and Autumn Sword Deity: "For such a spiritual object, this old man would be satisfied just to smell it."

Jiao Wo Bai Laoban: "Ginseng Fruit that takes ten thousand years to mature must contain powerful energy. If I could eat one, I reckon my Human Immortal Martial Dao would make a huge breakthrough."

Scripture Seeker: "I understand."

It's mainly because I can't beat Zhenyuanzi right now, and I'm afraid that if I eat the Ginseng Fruit, I'll be schemed against by him.

Zhenyuanzi did not go to attend the meeting with Yuanshi Tianzun, but waited here instead; it very much resembled inviting a monarch into a trap.

Xuanzang prepared to open his mouth to accept the Ginseng Fruit!

Zhenyuanzi, however, spoke up:

"Xuanzang, if you do not eat it, you are not giving this poor Taoist face."

"..." Xuanzang.

"..." Sun Wukong, Bajie, Xiaobailong, Heixiong, Sha.

Xuanzang smiled slightly and said:

"Since you are so generous, Taoist brother, then I shall not decline."

After speaking, the master and disciples each received a Ginseng Fruit.

Bajie hugged the Ginseng Fruit and kissed it fiercely several times, greedily inhaling the immortal aura of the Ginseng Fruit, took a polite shallow bite, and then swallowed it directly into his stomach, not knowing what the Ginseng Fruit tasted like until the very end.

"This fool." Sun Wukong chewed slowly.

Heixiong looked at the Ginseng Fruit with a beaming smile, feeling that his bear life had reached its peak.

As a wild demon, he was actually able to eat a Ginseng Fruit one day; this was like smoke rising from his ancestral grave.

Seeing that Bajie had finished eating, he leaned over.

Heixiong immediately swallowed his in two or three bites.

"..." Bajie.

Xuanzang, however, put his away and did not eat it.

With his level of cultivation, eating a Ginseng Fruit would not increase his magic power by much.

The Ginseng Fruit began to take effect, and Bajie felt the Postnatal impurities in his body being washed away again and again by the pure spiritual energy.

His pig-womb constitution was extremely poor; even if he practiced for another ten thousand years, he would not reach the level of a Golden Immortal, let alone the standard of his past life as Tianpeng.

But now, with the Ginseng Fruit to increase his foundation, wash his marrow and cut his flesh, and reshape his immortal bones, he had gained some opportunities, and his magic power had increased by a large margin.

"Comfortable," Bajie said with satisfaction.

"The taste is better than a Flat Peach," Sun Wukong evaluated.

"Master!" Heixiong wept with happiness.

"It is worthy of being a Ginseng Fruit, ha!

"

Xiaobailong felt his whole body filled with strength, and accidentally burst his upper garment, revealing extremely fierce, large muscles, layered upon one another, like steel.

Zhenyuanzi nodded, observing the changes in everyone, and then led everyone to tour the Taoist temple.

During this process, Xuanzang and Zhenyuanzi discussed the Tao and cultivation together; Xuanzang had to admire Zhenyuanzi's realm and benefited greatly.

Whether intentional or not, the group arrived before the Innate Spiritual Root, the Ginseng Fruit Tree.

The towering ancient tree, the rich spiritual energy, and the crystal-clear fruits looked luscious and tempting, making people stare.

"Taoist brother, this is the Ginseng Fruit Tree; it is truly worthy of being an Innate Spiritual Root!" Xuanzang said.

"So many fruits," Bajie said, looking at the fruit tree.

"Great Immortal, can I touch this tree?" Sun Wukong asked.

"You may, but do not touch the fruits," Zhenyuanzi smiled.

Sun Wukong walked over on tiptoe, reached out to touch the Ginseng Fruit Tree, his face full of smiles, overcome with joy.

However, the next second, the Ginseng Fruit Tree, which had been solemn and filled with rich immortal light, collapsed with a boom.

"?" Sun Wukong.

"!" Bajie.

Sun Wukong scratched his head, waved his hands, and said:

"Master, if I say I don't know anything about it, do you believe me?"

"Master, if I say I don't know anything, do you believe me?"
