Such a small piece of fruit flesh actually increased Chen Xiao's Fa Li by a bit. Although it wasn't much, if he were to eat the entire fruit flesh, according to Chen Xiao's expectations, it would be comparable to his bitter training for at least half a year.
To be able to match up to half a year of his bitter cultivation, which meant that if this thing was given to someone under the Deity Realm to consume, just one fruit would probably be enough to help them break through a small realm.
This was a good thing!
More importantly, after eating so little, Chen Xiao could already confirm that this thing was indeed not poisonous, and only contained pure energy!
"Since that's the case, I won't be polite!" Chen Xiao laughed as he spoke, he looked at the ferns in front of him and instantly stood up. He plucked the fruits off one by one and kept them in an ice box made of profound ice.
After the fruit was picked by Chen Xiao, there was still no movement from the fruit tree.
"You are quite sensible. Alright, since that is the case, I will not make things difficult for you!" After saying that, Chen Xiao turned and walked towards the other ferns.
In front of him, there was a dense forest. If one were to take a rough look, there were at least a hundred of them. They had already formed a forest.
Other than a few ferns whose branches and leaves were injured near Chen Xiao's area, the ferns at other places had not suffered too much damage yet.
When Chen Xiao walked over, these plants did not react at all. It was obvious that they had seen Chen Xiao's terror before, and were no longer willing to go against him.
Although the fruit was picked by Chen Xiao, at least it was better than being chopped to death by Chen Xiao?
In the blink of an eye, Chen Xiao had already plucked more than ten of these fruits, and roughly estimated that there were nearly two hundred fruits.
Just as Chen Xiao was about to continue picking other fruits, he was suddenly startled by a burst of rustling sound.
Chen Xiao's divine sense had been constantly maintaining its outward state, constantly searching the surrounding area, but he did not see anything. However, Chen Xiao was actually able to hear the rustling sound it made.
Instead of continuing to pluck the fruits, Chen Xiao landed on the ground and the Meteor Sword that had disappeared appeared again.
With the Meteor Sword in hand, Chen Xiao stepped forward lightly, slowly walking towards the direction where the sound came from.
However, at this time, the sound had disappeared without a trace. No matter how hard Chen Xiao listened, he could not hear anything.
But Chen Xiao was sure that it was not his imagination, but that there was something crawling around him.
Chen Xiao was sure that it was not from the ferns.
There must be something else in the vicinity that he had not seen before!
When he thought of the Bi'an Skeleton Beast that had appeared within this starry sky, even Chen Xiao's face instantly turned solemn.
If he really met an existence such as an Bi'an Skeleton Beast, Chen Xiao had no choice but to flee.
Chen Xiao walked very slowly, to the point that there were not even the slightest of footsteps.
This made Chen Xiao frown, and his expression became more serious.
Being able to avoid his hearing and not be discovered by his spiritual will was enough to prove that that thing was definitely not ordinary. Otherwise, it would be impossible to escape from his spiritual will.
As Chen Xiao slowly moved outwards, he soon arrived at the outskirts of the Fern Forest.
At this moment, Chen Xiao finally found some clues.
In front of him, not far from the ground, a sliver of very minute crawling scar surfaced on the soil, which Chen Xiao coincidentally saw.
And this trace, Chen Xiao was certain that it was not there before.
When he came here, he had carefully observed that there were absolutely no other living beings. Now, however, there was suddenly a sliver of a crawling trace.
This meant that the rustling sound he heard earlier was indeed real, and it should have been made by the owner of the crawling trace!
~ Right now, Chen Xiao is only around 1000 meters away from where he was gathering the Fern Fruits, which means to say, there was something that was already within 1000 meters of him, but he did not manage to discover it immediately!
If this thing had sneak attacked him when he wasn't prepared …
Chen Xiao did not dare to continue thinking about it.
Focusing his mind, Chen Xiao stared at the crawling tracks, and quickly searched through.
If there were no traces at all, it would be hard for Chen Xiao to do anything, but since there were traces on the ground, with Chen Xiao's cultivation, it would be easy to find some clues.
He used his Divine Sense to search the place through the tracks, and quickly discovered that the starting point of this thing was in a crevice tens of thousands of metres away. He then went towards Chen Xiao's direction and went around to the other side of the Fern Forest.
It was possible that this thing was alarmed by the fight between Chen Xiao and the ferns, and came over to check the situation.
Chen Xiao continued to search with his Divine Sense, only to find that the thing that had entered the fern forest had disappeared, and there were no traces of it crawling on the ground at all.
"There are no more traces?" Chen Xiao muttered, with suspicion in his eyes.
Suddenly, Chen Xiao raised his head and looked at the fern forest with eyes like a falcon's.
Since the ground was gone, it was very likely that the thing had already entered the fern forest!
But the thing must have been so familiar with the ferns that it didn't make a sound.
Chen Xiao's face darkened, his divine sense began to contract, enveloping the entire fern forest, preparing to look for it carefully.
These ferns were not big, coupled with the fact that Chen Xiao's telepathic thoughts were tyrannical enough, he was not able to probe them repeatedly.
In that moment, Chen Xiao's divine sense locked onto a fern tree.
At that location, a greyish black tail was silently coiling around the fern tree!
Looking up from the tail, Chen Xiao suddenly froze.
Surprisingly, the tail was not that of a snake or a flood dragon, but something that belonged to a human!
Snake tail, human body!
Chen Xiao was stunned!
It wasn't that he hadn't seen a serpent demon before, but he had seen a serpent demon transform into a human. He had seen it before, but what was this half human half snake thing?
Furthermore, this half-human half-snake thing was actually a young and beautiful woman. The upper half of the woman's body was completely naked, revealing the outside.
As if it had discovered that it had been discovered by Chen Xiao, the serpent demon suddenly twisted and leaped towards another fern tree.
During this process, not only did it not make the slightest sound, even the ferns did not make any sound, it was as if there was nothing there.
But at this moment, this thing was already locked on by Chen Xiao's divine sense, so how could it possibly escape, and it was easily locked on by Chen Xiao once again.
This time, Chen Xiao did not hesitate. With the Meteor Sword in his hand, he walked over.
Since he had already determined what it was, Chen Xiao was not too afraid. Since he had already determined the strength of the object, then it should be Borderless Stage in appearance.
