The length of a day on this planet was about the same as the Mother Planet. As for the time difference, it was impossible to calculate it after an interstellar trip.
Lan Xuanyu took a look at his injuries. That big white tiger was still sleeping soundly with one hand covering his eyes. It looked quite adorable.
Lan Xuanyu walked over and rubbed its big head before pinching its face. He then opened the door and walked out of his dorm.
After arriving yesterday, he was simply too tired and didnât eat much. Right now, he was a little hungry.
At this moment, it was quiet outside. Lan Xuanyu stretched his body in front of his room and moved his limbs to warm up his stiff body.
The life energy here was abundant and rich, but it was obviously not on the same level as the Mother Planet. He took out an Endless Life Fruit and placed it in his mouth as he silently felt the life energy nourishing his body. With the rich life energy from the Endless Life Fruit, his hunger disappeared.
Just then, a clear voice came from behind. âWhat are you eating?â
When Lan Xuanyu turned around, he saw that the big white tiger had appeared behind him without a sound.
âA type of fruit, a specialty of our Douluo Planet.â Lan Xuanyu took out the Endless Life Fruit from his mouth and gestured in front of it.
The white tigerâs eyes widened and its nose twitched. It sniffed and suddenly stuck out its tongue and curled it towards Lan Xuanyuâs hand.
Lan Xuanyu was already on guard against it. He leaped back and avoided it immediately before stuffing the fruit back into his mouth.
âHuman, why are you so petty! I donât even mind your saliva on it,â the white tiger said angrily.
Lan Xuanyu scoffed. âItâs very expensive, why should I let you eat it? Also, you slept on my bed for the entire night and I didnât even have a place to sleep.â
The white tiger grinned. âYouâre stingy, stingy. Can this king trade with you? I want to eat that fruit of yours.â
Lan Xuanyu asked, âWhat do you want to trade?â
The white tiger tilted its head and thought for a moment. Then, a dark blue light flashed on its body and a tiger claw was extended. It patted the air lightly and actually produced a silver light. Then, it extended its claw into the silver light and grabbed a few fruits.
Lan Xuanyu focused his gaze and saw that the string of fruits was a greenish-purple color. The color of the skin was thick and not transparent, but it emitted a faint fragrance.
âWhat is this? Grape?â Lan Xuanyu asked doubtfully.
The white tiger said in annoyance, âWhat an ignorant human. This is the Emperor Fruit. After eating it, it can allow one to become a saint and live forever.â
Lan Xuanyu rolled his eyes. âIt would be weird if I believed you. Become a saint and live forever. Try harder to fool me.â
The white tiger blinked. âIâm not lying. I became able to speak only after eating this. They told me that eating this would allow me to live forever. I didnât like purple at first, I only like blue. I donât want purple things.â
Lan Xuanyu looked at it in surprise. âYou became able to talk after eating this ? Let me see.â
As he spoke, he took the string of fruits from the white tigerâs paw. There were over ten fruits on it, and it felt a little heavy in his hand. The fragrance also became stronger.
It was a unique fragrance that Lan Xuanyu had never felt before. He focused on sensing its changes and quickly realized that this fruit was different because his spiritual power was unable to detect the interior of the fruit. That layer of skin that didnât seem too thick actually completely concealed the aura of the fruit.
âWhat fruit is this? What the hell is this Emperor Fruit?â
âDo you want to trade ? One for one.â The white tiger rolled its eyes and asked.
Lan Xuanyu shook his head and returned the fruit to it. âIâm not trading it. Your effect is unclear, but my Endless Life Fruit contains extremely rich life energy. I donât dare to eat this. I donât know if there will be any side effects if I eat it. What if itâs poisonous?â
The white tiger said anxiously, âYou really donât know good stuff. This is an Emperor Fruit! Originally, only the elven royal family could eat it. The bloodline of the elven royal family would become diluted after being passed down from generation to generation. They relied on this fruit to purify their strongest bloodline. Naturally, it was the bloodline of the Elven King. We traded for this, and other than the one that I ate, thereâs only this bit left. You really donât know whatâs good for you.â
âPurify the bloodline?â Lan Xuanyu was stunned. He looked at the fruit again and was immediately moved.
According to Nana, his bloodline should have the power of the dragon race, similar to the Dragon God bloodline, but it also had the power of the Blue Silver Grass. All along, his bloodline power had been constantly growing and becoming stronger. If his bloodline could also be purified, didnât that mean that his bloodline power would become purer and stronger? If that was the case, then this Emperor Fruit was really good stuff.
Furthermore, he wasnât the only one who needed it; it was also useful to his teammates!
âI donât know you, how can I believe what you said? How about this, Iâll take a risk too. You use this string to trade for one of my Endless Life Fruits, Iâll give you a brand new one that Iâve never eaten before.â
As he spoke, Lan Xuanyuâs wrist flashed and a small silver box appeared in his hand.
The small silver box looked extremely exquisite. There were convex carvings on it that looked like the Eternal Tree. There was also Shrek Academyâs design below it that was meticulously crafted.
Different Heaven and Earth treasures required different storage methods, and Endless Life Fruits were most suited to be stored in items made of silver. This box was naturally customized as well. As the quantity of Endless Life Fruits produced was quite large, the academy specially designed this.
Lan Xuanyu opened the box and revealed an emerald green fruit that was extremely transparent. It was a completely new fruit that he had never eaten before.
Upon seeing this fruit, the white tigerâs eyes widened and its blue eyes were filled with desire. It could clearly feel that this fruit was very, very beneficial to it. It was even more beneficial than the Emperor Fruit. More importantly...
âYou have to give me this box too, look at it.â The white tiger raised its head excitedly and looked at Lan Xuanyu hopefully.
âYou want the box too? This wonât do. This box is a Divine Tool from our side and is specially used to store this fruit. Without the protection of this box, we have no way of storing it and its spirituality will disappear. I can give you the fruit, you just have to eat and digest it. But this box wonât do. Without it, I wonât be able to store this fruit in the future.â Lan Xuanyu immediately rejected it righteously.
âBox, I just want this box, itâs so beautiful! Thereâs even a green gem embedded on it, what is that?â
There were some green gemstones embedded in the box. Fragments of Life Crystals contained a certain amount of life energy, but compared to the Life Crystals produced by the Sea God Lake beneath the Eternal Tree, they were considered defective. But to the white tiger, they were especially beautiful.
Lan Xuanyu said, âThis is a Life Crystal, a crystal that can only be formed by condensing the densest life energy. Donât you have some here?â He was a little surprised at this. The Elven Planet had such a dense life aura, it would be abnormal if it didnât have any Life Crystals.
The white tiger said, âThere is, but itâs different, itâs different. There is a difference, I can feel it. I just want this box, you can give it to me together. I will trade all of my Emperor Fruits to you. A person can only eat three Emperor Fruits at most, you can even sell some to others.â
