The Nine-Heart Demon Fruit Tree, one of the Holy Trees of the Demon Race, was lush with branches and leaves, its entire form a brilliant emerald green. Its nine fruits resembled nine hearts, pulsing in unison. With every beat, the seawater formed a vortex and gushed in wildly. The surrounding Spiritual Qi slowly gathered, nourishing the fruits until they were as crimson as a real heart.
If he hadn't known how miraculous the fruits of the Nine-Heart Demon Fruit Tree were, Nie Yun would have suspected that the tree itself was alive.
Before he could even get close to the tree, several long, thin branches suddenly shot out sideways, lashing straight toward him.
SWOOSH!
The branches parted the seawater, creating a wake. It was as if a master Swordsman had unleashed a torrent of Sword Qi, sealing off all of Nie Yun's escape routes.
'So this is what they mean by being nourished by living creatures? No wonder it's called a Demon Fruit Tree. It really lives up to the name!'
