Chapter 251: Spirit Nurturing Envoy
The Four Seasons Fruit Tree, despite its name, bore leaves of a uniform, vibrant emerald. Yet, there was no sense of incongruity; it felt right, as if nature itself had dictated this singular perfection.
Under the constant, accelerated nurturing of Jiang Chen’s Green Lotus Domain, the tree had surged to a height of two meters. Its branches were heavy with bounty—specifically, the Fire Flame Fruit.
The fruits were a deep, fiery crimson, resembling radiant tomatoes. Even from a step away, Jiang Chen could feel the waves of heat rolling off them, pungent and intense. It was a sensation similar to the extreme-Yang herbs he cultivated, like the Golden Crow Vine, but far more concentrated.
He reached out and twisted one off the branch. It had the heft of a tomato, its skin warm and taut. When he gave it a gentle shake, he could feel liquid sloshing inside.
Wiping it casually on his sleeve, Jiang Chen took a bite.
The flavor was immediate and overwhelming—like molten syrup, sweet and searing, as if he had swallowed a chunk of burning honey. The juice numbed the tip of his tongue before transforming into a spreading warmth that slid down his throat. He could trace a distinct “line of fire” burning a path all the way to his stomach.
After just one bite, his Face flushed red, heat radiating from his pores.
“Incredible,” he muttered, exhaling a breath that felt hot enough to steam. “A single fruit contains this much Fire Spirit Qi?”
While his farm was packed with Yang-attribute herbs that naturally gathered Fire Qi, the ambient concentration here was usually a far cry from the geothermal intensity of the Earth Fire Zone. But with these fruits acting as batteries, combined with his existing crops, he could finally elevate his Fire spiritual power to match his Wood cultivation.
