Chapter 1703
Chen Xuan was taken aback upon hearing this, and bowed deeply again: "Senior, your virtue is beyond my comprehension."
The Chaos Tree gently swayed its crown, and countless fruits suddenly appeared among its sky-covering branches and leaves—each fruit was filled with chaotic energy, like miniature stars, swaying slightly among the branches, exuding an alluring Daoist charm.
"Since the end of the Immortal Ancient Era, half an era has passed," the Chaos Treasure Tree said slowly. "In these endless years, I have only nurtured these Chaos Dao Fruits. Although your strength is weak, you are entangled with karma that even I cannot see through, so you can be considered to have a connection with me. How much you can take depends on your ability and fortune."
An undisguised joy flashed in Chen Xuan's eyes, and a sweep of his divine sense sent a jolt through him—
The entire treasure tree was covered with more than 3,600 Chaos Dao Fruits, each the size of a football, and the chaotic energy was so dense that it was almost dripping down.
"In that case, I won't stand on ceremony."
Before he finished speaking, he had already transformed into a streak of light and rushed to the nearest Dao Fruit. He reached out to pick it, but the moment his fingertips touched the fruit, it turned into a wisp of gray smoke and dissipated into the air.
Chen Xuan was taken aback, then flew towards another one. This time, he took out a whisk and thousands of threads wrapped around it like serpents, but the Dao Fruit still passed through the threads and disappeared without a trace.
"I refuse to believe it!" Chen Xuan tried seven or eight methods in succession, such as using his sword to pick it up, using his palm to absorb it, and even using the power of a celestial artifact, but all of them failed.
"Hahaha..." The Chaos Treasure Tree's laughter was like the rustling of leaves in the wind. "Little brat, the Chaos Dao Fruit is formed from chaotic energy. How can ordinary physical means capture it?"
“Senior, I come from a humble background and have limited knowledge. Please enlighten me.” Chen Xuan stopped what he was doing and bowed again.
The Chaos Tree nodded slightly: "Chaos evolves into myriad paths, and the Dao Fruit is the manifestation of the Dao. You must use the Great Dao you have mastered to touch it in order to pluck it. The physical objects of the Five Elements cannot grasp it." It paused, then added, "I see that you have mastered the Dao of Heaven and Earth and the Dao of Space. With these two methods, you should be able to take away two Dao Fruits."
Chen Xuan's heart stirred: "In other words, the more Great Daos I master, the more Dao Fruits I can take away?"
The canopy of the Chaos Tree drooped slightly, looking at the fruits covering it, with a hint of pride: "In the ancient times, the distribution of Dao Fruits had its own rules. Now that the Chaos Clan has been wiped out, and your cultivation level is low, you have been able to obtain this opportunity."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan was secretly delighted—this time he had really struck it rich!
"Thank you, senior, for the tip!"
After saying that, he rushed towards another Dao Fruit.
This time, he no longer used physical objects. Instead, with a thought, the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth transformed into an invisible hand, gently enveloping the Dao Fruit.
Sure enough, the fruit did not dissipate; it was steadily picked and stored in the storage space.
The moment it detached from the branch, the Dao Fruit stopped absorbing chaotic energy, and its luster dimmed slightly and became more subdued.
Immediately afterwards, he used the Great Dao of Space to create a rift, "wrapping" another Dao Fruit inside, and successfully obtained it.
Seeing this, the Chaos Tree was about to praise Chen Xuan for his intelligence and extraordinary foundation, but then it saw that Chen Xuan did not stop and rushed towards the third Dao Fruit.
"Hmm? The Great Dao of Time?" The branches of the Chaos Treasure Tree paused slightly, murmured softly, and then nodded gently—this kid actually has mastered the Great Dao of Time, which is quite rare.
It thought to itself, having taken three in a row, with the foundation of the Void Realm, this little kid must have reached his limit, right?
However, Chen Xuan's figure swept past the branches like a streak of light, showing no sign of stopping.
"The Great Dao of the Sword!"—A condensed sword light flashed, and the fourth Dao Fruit was obtained.
"The Great Dao of Refining Weapons!"—A wisp of golden flame enveloped the fifth Dao Fruit, which was then plucked.
"The Great Dao of Array Formation!"—An invisible array pattern flashed, and the sixth Dao Fruit was collected.
"The Great Dao of Talismans!"—A profound rune floated into the package, and the seventh Dao Fruit was in hand.
"The Great Dao of Taiyin!"—A phantom of a silver moon rose and shone, and the eighth Dao Fruit was taken away.
"The Great Dao of the Sun!"—A ball of golden flame appeared, and the ninth Dao Fruit was obtained into his hand.
The massive canopy of the Chaos Tree suddenly froze, its drooping branches forgetting to sway, as if frozen in place: "This kid... what's his background? Early stage of the Void Reversal Realm, yet he's mastered so many profound Daos?"
But Chen Xuan did not stop, his figure darting among the branches like lightning.
"The Avenue of Stars!"
"Purple Light Avenue!"
"The Great Dao of Mystic Ice!"
"Yi Wood Avenue!"
"Gengjin Avenue!"
"The Crimson Sky Avenue!"
……
One by one, the Dao Fruits were plucked by different manifestations of the Great Dao, and Chen Xuan's figure flickered among the treasure trees, seemingly tireless.
The Chaos Tree was utterly speechless. Even the chaotic light rain on its branches forgot to fall, and it could only watch helplessly as Chen Xuan's figure receded into the distance, muttering, "This... this little brat... this..."
