Chapter 1190 -s 1138-1139 Decision Making at the Right Moment_2
The four brothers had lived together for so many years that sometimes they understood each other’s thoughts without saying a word.
"Indeed, with our abilities, we simply cannot retain these Divine Tree fruits till the end, and they will become a death warrant for us, attracting those powerful beings to us at all times, eager to hunt us down," First Brother Mo candidly spoke of the problem they were now facing. "Also, we have already consumed these Divine Tree fruits, and if nothing goes wrong, consuming them again would only build our foundation without giving us the chance to comprehend the Immortal Path."
The Divine Tree fruits they currently held were very precious, at least to the countless strong beings who had yet to consume them. However, to the four of them, the fruits were not as valuable as imagined.
This period had been sufficient for them to thoroughly understand everything about the origins of the Divine Tree and its effects. It was clear that the fruits were only effective upon the first consumption; consuming them again would merely accumulate power without offering a chance to comprehend the Immortal Path.
Of course, this was just a conjecture, based on the effects of the Divine Tree before its transformation. If the tree and the fruits underwent some mutation, a change might not be out of the question.
Unfortunately, there were prohibitions left on these Divine Tree fruits by a True Immortal, preventing them from verifying this possibility. They could only for the moment accept it as such.
In other words, they needed such a reason to persuade themselves.
If it were true that consuming Divine Tree fruits again provided no additional chances to comprehend the Immortal Path, then in reality, these fruits they held no longer meant much to them.
So, with that being the case, there was really no need for them to continue fighting these strong beings over this matter since it would be pointless.
"Then let’s use them for trade! We have already obtained what we should have, continuing to hold on to them will only attract disaster. It would be better to exchange them for other things," Second Brother Mo said forthrightly.
Using these Divine Tree fruits for trade was, indeed, the best way to maximize their benefit. They could avoid being hunted and also trade for cultivation resources.
"However, no matter what, we need certain guarantees to prevent some from being greedy and reneging on the deal," Third Brother Mo warned cautiously.
