Chapter 1680
Facts have proven that as long as you hold rare resources in your hands, you will be treated like a big shot anywhere, just like Su Xiao now.
The importance of Black Maple leaves to the Demon Tribe goes without saying. Just the fact that it is the main material for a demonic power hub is enough to make the Demon Tribe risk their lives for the Black Maple Tree. Of course, the premise is that there is a high possibility of winning; otherwise, the Demon Tribe will not try.
Ulysses placed the small leather bag containing 20 Black Maple leaves inside his inner clothing. If losing the Soul Fruit would make him lose face, then losing these Black Maple leaves would be enough for him to apologize with his death.
Su Xiao tossed the Soul Fruit in his hand. The Demon Tribe and the Feather Tribe fought to the death just for this thing, and both sides lost nearly two hundred people, but now, this thing has fallen into his hands. Things in the world are just so wonderful.
"Come closer."
Su Xiao suddenly spoke, his gaze looking at Lilith. Although Lilith was somewhat puzzled, the two had fought together after all, and her trust in Su Xiao was not low.
In Lilith's surprised gaze, Su Xiao's fingers reached into her metal chest armor.
"Gifted to you, your sister has a share."
"..."
Lilith retreated several steps. She felt something touch her sensitive area. After hesitating for a moment, she turned and walked toward the underground passage.
Soon, Ulysses and Lilith led more than a dozen demons to leave the underground space. Perhaps because the friction was uncomfortable, Lilith reached two fingers into her metal chest armor and pulled out a transparent object, something somewhat similar to a gelatinous substance, with a relatively soft texture.
"What is this?"
As Lilith spoke, she tried to pull the gelatinous object in her hand.
Snap!
Lilith's head hurt from being knocked. She looked at Ulysses.
"Master..."
"Carry this with you. Go back and show it to Lilim first; she will help you handle it. This is at least enough for ten portions. After you each take one, I don't know what those old guys will take out to compensate for the other eight portions."
Ulysses did not tell Lilith what she was holding in her hand. Ulysses had already guessed that this was nine times out of ten something Lilith had risked her life to trade for. Their ally did not have the personality of a good-natured person.
However, compared to the Black Maple Tree bark that Lilith obtained, Ulysses wanted to know more if Su Xiao had other Black Maple Tree products on him. Precisely because of this, he had to leave the Black Abyss at the fastest speed. One was for the safety of the Black Maple leaves and Black Maple Tree bark, and the second was to contact a certain old demon and let the other party come to talk to Su Xiao.
Half an hour later, Redeemer Highlands, atrium area.
The metal door above closed with a bang. It must be said that the residence provided by Asaka was impeccable in terms of safety. Even if Su Xiao wanted to violently invade this kind of underground room, it would be impossible to break through at the first moment.
Su Xiao took the Soul Fruit out of his backpack. He really hadn't expected before that this thing would actually fall into his hands.
【Soul Fruit】

Quality: Epic

Introduction: This is the gift of the soul vine to the planter.
Selling Price: 390,000 Paradise Coins.
Consuming the Soul Fruit does not necessarily mean one can awaken a second talent. If one's luck is not good, it will only increase soul strength. Of course, this is also no small harvest.
Seeing the chance of awakening an SSS-rank talent, Su Xiao did not hold out hope for it. An 8% chance is clearly unreliable. Top-tier talents are not so easy to obtain. As for an SS-rank talent, it is very likely to be obtained, after all, it's a 50% chance. An S-rank talent is actually acceptable. What Su Xiao is most worried about is that after eating the Soul Fruit, no talent is awakened at all.
Su Xiao took a deep breath and took a big bite of the Soul Fruit in his hand. The flesh was very soft. After entering the mouth, there was a granular feeling like an orange. The taste was somewhat hard to describe. It was a kind of... taste that makes one unforgettable for a lifetime. It was not bad-tasting or delicious, but a very special taste.
Su Xiao finished the Soul Fruit in his hand in a few bites. Xiang Bubu Wang on the side swallowed his saliva. That little look seemed to be asking Su Xiao: "Master, what does it taste like?"
"It has a strange taste."
Su Xiao gradually stopped chewing. He felt a non-attribute energy spreading within his body. The next moment, there was a buzz in his ears, and everything before his eyes was white.
I don't know how much time passed, Su Xiao appeared in a mist. After looking around, he roughly understood what was going on.
A strong wind blew, the mist dispersed, and four huge stone steles appeared before him.
These four stone steles each had their own characteristics. The first one was covered in cracks, and wisps of blood energy drifted out from within the stele. Fierce, violent—this was the feeling this stele gave Su Xiao.
In the center of this stele was a distorted character. Su Xiao had never seen this kind of character, but he recognized it as the character 'Fei', a kind of fierce beast in the Void that loves to eat souls.
Compared to this stele that exuded blood energy, the other three also had different auras. One was earthy yellow all over, giving people a feeling of heaviness; another had lightning flashing; the last one had an eye.
Su Xiao had long discovered that his location was similar to a consciousness space, and the four stone steles before him were actually his choices. After eating the Soul Fruit, he obtained the opportunity to awaken a talent. These four abilities were all one of his innate talents, and he could choose one to awaken.
Fierce beast Fei, earth-type ability, lightning-type ability, a pitch-black eye—among these four, choose one. There was no hint, completely relying on feeling to choose.
If one were to speak only from the first feeling, Su Xiao had the best impression of the stele filled with blood energy. The reason was very simple: there seemed to be a 'homologous' power on it.
Su Xiao's hand lifted, and he pressed one hand on the first stone stele. The 'Fei' character on the stele flickered with red light, and a fierce-looking monster with a mouth full of sharp teeth appeared above the stele.
That house-sized head leaned close to Su Xiao, its nose twitching. After seemingly sniffing, the phantom of Fei dissipated.
With a crisp snap, the stone stele shattered and turned into a stream of blood mist that surged toward Su Xiao.
Su Xiao's eyes opened suddenly, and a dog face came into view. Pushing away Xiang Bubu Wang's dog head, he checked the prompt from Reincarnation Paradise.
【The Hunter has consumed the Soul Fruit.】
【Your soul strength has increased by 39 points, current soul strength is 47 points.】
【You have awakened a new talent ability: Blood Beast.】
Talent Ability: Blood Beast
Category: Growth Talent
Rank: SSS
Talent Effect (Active): Use your own aura to generate a Blood Beast. The Blood Beast can be generated instantly and pounce directly at the enemy (requires the enemy to be within 10 meters), causing 1800 points of base damage + Strength attribute x4.5 (445 points of damage) + Agility attribute x3.7 (366 points of damage) + Stamina attribute x6.8 (673 points of damage) of physical defense-ignoring damage to the enemy, and causing the target to be distracted or stunned for 0.3–7.5 seconds.
Prompt: Using this ability will consume all aura/blood energy (aura/blood energy can recover on its own).
Prompt: If aura/blood energy increases, the base damage of the Blood Beast will increase accordingly.
Prompt: The cooldown time for this ability is 8 natural days. Because it is a talent ability, it can be used forcibly, but it will place a huge burden on the body.
