Chapter 1624 (Raw 1606): Great Harvest

Soon, Xiao Chen was within one thousand steps of the closest Starry Sea Fluorescent Tree—also known as the Tree of Life .

At such a distance, he was extremely insignificant compared to the towering giant .

What rose before him did not seem like a tree but a small mountain . It made the gargantuan bodies of the Black Star Sawtooth Sharks look rather normal .

On the other hand, he appeared like he had shrunk by one hundred times from normal .

Xiao Chen rested for a short while . Then, just as he was about to continue, he paused .

A Black Star Sawtooth Shark slowly swam by, startling him .

Only when the Black Star Sawtooth Shark was far away did Xiao Chen resume slowly approaching the Tree of Life .

He raised his head slightly and immediately felt dizzy . This tree was too tall and too big .

To extract the juice from the tree, one needed to make a horizontal slit on the tree first . After that, one just stuck in a funnel to direct the flow .

Without thinking much, Xiao Chen took out a dagger and infused Veritable Essence Energy into it . Then, he used some force to stab it in and slowly cut out an opening .

Immediately, pale-white sap leaked out of the cut, looking very distinct in the seawater .

Xiao Chen revealed a smile on his face . This did not seem to be as difficult as he had imagined .

He took out a funnel and stuck it in, fixing it in properly . Then, he aimed it at a jade bottle .

This jade bottle was refined by Xiao Chen . While it did not look big, in reality, it was a storage bottle similar to the Universe Ring .

Soon, the juice seeped out from the funnel, containing strong, intoxicating lifeforce .

However, Xiao Chen soon frowned . Why is it like that?

The white sap turned turbid, including a lot of impurities . Its color became extremely unsightly .

With a doubtful expression, Xiao Chen immediately gave up and sealed the cut .

In reality, the turbid Life Juice Source was already very valuable . The Life Juice Source in the starry sea’s markets was all of such quality .

Even so, such Life Juice Source was still extremely valuable and rare . It was just not that miraculous . However, this was clearly not what Xiao Chen sought .

Not giving up, he climbed up the Tree of Life to extract the juice from a higher spot . The outcome was still the same; there were no exceptions .

Xiao Chen carefully moved to the nearby Trees of Life . However, there was no change; the result was still the same quality .

Standing on the branch of a Tree of Life, he looked at the depths where the Black Star Sawtooth Sharks were and entered deep thought .

He could not understand what was going on .

Just at this moment, three Black Star Sawtooth Sharks passed by . Xiao Chen moved like a fish and darted behind the tree leaves .

Only when the three Black Star Sawtooth Sharks had swum past did he come back out .

What is that?

Xiao Chen saw that the Black Star Sawtooth Sharks had the corpses of oceanic ferocious beasts in their gigantic mouths . However, they were not eating the corpses .

Strange, could they be full? Still, there is no way to preserve corpses at sea .

Once dead, the bodies of most oceanic ferocious beasts could not resist the corrosion of the starry sea .

It would be like earlier when that young Black Star Sawtooth Shark’s corpse quickly corroded .

Let’s go over and take a look .

Xiao Chen felt suspicious . After thinking about it for a moment, he quietly followed, swimming over .

Although the Black Star Sawtooth Sharks were gargantuan, their Mental Energy was extremely strong . If Xiao Chen was careless, they might discover him .

He did not dare get too close, only following from a distance .

After a while, he saw an inconceivable scene: a particular Tree of Life with many ferocious beast corpses piled up at its base .

As the corpses corroded, they turned into nutrients for the Tree of Life to absorb .

The size of this Tree of Life was not much different from the others . However, it was several times brighter . The fluorescence from its leaves was glaringly intense .

A shoal of Black Star Sawtooth Sharks surrounded that Tree of Life, growling like they were praying .

The surging sound waves shook the Tree of Life and its leaves . Drops of silver liquid fell like a heavy rain of light in the sea .

After that, those Black Star Sawtooth Sharks opened their mouths and swallowed the silver liquid that was mixed with the seawater .

No wonder these Black Star Sawtooth Sharks were born with the strength of Primal Core cultivators . They consumed Life Juice Source like a snack, strengthening their bloodline . It would be strange if their descendants were not strong .

However, such a method was primitive and wasteful . These Black Star Sawtooth Sharks did not maximize the effects of the Life Juice Source; they just primitively swallowed the Life Juice Source, not refining it .

Suddenly, Xiao Chen’s eyes lit up . He now understood that he could obtain the pure Life Juice Source only from the Trees of Life that received special care .

That had to be the case . The color of this Life Juice Source was much vivider than what those untended trees produced . Furthermore, it was a pure silver color .

However, there were so many Black Star Sawtooth Sharks guarding this Tree of Life . Xiao Chen simply did not dare to act rashly .

Wait!

Xiao Chen’s mental state was very good . His emotions were not stirred up; he merely calmly waited .

Finally, he found his opportunity . Fifteen minutes later, the Black Star Sawtooth Sharks left, satisfied . Only one Black Star Sawtooth Shark remained to guard the place .

Xiao Chen observed the surroundings and understood somewhat . These Black Star Sawtooth Sharks seemed to group together in tribes .

Each tribe of sharks should be guarding a Tree of Life that could release the pure Life Juice Source .

With this thought, Xiao Chen rejoiced in his heart . This time, he really struck it big .

Through casual observation, he discovered at least twenty of such tribes nearby . The amount of Life Juice Source he could obtain would be extremely horrifying .

Xiao Chen calmed down and executed the Fish Dragon Art, silently swimming over .

“Bang!”

Suddenly, without any warning at all, Xiao Chen felt a huge force . Something heavy struck him, instantly shaking his internal organs . Intense pain racked his entire body as he went tumbling through the water .

Was I discovered?

Horror flooded Xiao Chen’s heart, making it race . He thought of an escape route and prepared to flee immediately .

However, he discovered from a distance that this particular Black Star Sawtooth Shark was only rolling over casually, trying to find a comfortable position for leaning on a tree .

Xiao Chen heaved a sigh of relief . He had been truly frightened earlier . He was dancing on a knife’s edge .

He was not an opponent for any of these mature Black Star Sawtooth Sharks . What more a large tribe of thousands of them?

Xiao Chen’s expression turned even warier . Just casually rolling over already contained such force . He wondered how horrifying a Black Star Sawtooth Shark would be when it truly got angry .

This time, he proceeded more cautiously and finally reached that special Tree of Life . Then, he quickly swam upwards, putting a distance between him and the Black Star Sawtooth Shark below .

As Xiao Chen continued swimming, he discovered that at some point, the surrounding leaves were densely covered in flashing silver drops of liquid .

Such high-quality juice from the Tree of Life had leaked out because no one harvested them .

The praying actions of those Black Star Sawtooth Sharks were for the sake of shaking the tree leaves and making these drops of Life Juice Source fall by themselves .

“This is truly wasteful!” Xiao Chen shook his head with a smile . However, this wastage was good; it happened to benefit him .

Actually, Xiao Chen did not know that the Starry Sea Fluorescent Trees were something like deities to the Black Star Sawtooth Shark tribes . They could not even touch it .

He cut an opening with his dagger . Sap immediately started flowing . So, he quickly took out the jade bottle and caught it .

This time, silver sap dripped into the jade bottle in a steady stream . After a while, Xiao Chen had already collected several kilograms of it, yet more still trickled out . This made him extremely happy .

After he collected two hundred and fifty kilograms, the flow slowed, and impurities started to appear .

Xiao Chen came to a realization . Although this Tree of Life might seem huge, it actually did not contain much pure sap . It required some time to accumulate sap . After the pure sap was drained, what was left would be the turbid sap .

Anyway, he had enough . There were still more than twenty such special trees waiting for him .

Xiao Chen sealed the cut and immediately shifted targets, making full use of his time . The drain on his Veritable Essence Energy was somewhat horrifying . His time at the bottom of the sea was limited, and he needed to act fast .

Soon, he realized that he really did not have enough time .

After harvesting ten of the special Trees of Life, he found that his Veritable Essence Energy would allow him to remain underwater for only another hour .

Am I going to leave just like that?

Xiao Chen’s harvest was already massive . A preliminary estimate came to at least two and a half tons of silver Life Juice Source . Furthermore, it was entirely pure .

However… Xiao Chen looked towards the center of the Black Star Sawtooth Shark nest, where a Tree of Life that was different from the rest stood .  

There were even more Black Star Sawtooth Sharks surrounding the base of that Tree of Life . That Tree of Life had to belong to the chief .
