Chapter 887

Most people would be unable to recognise the origins of the already shrivelled leaf that Yan Zhaoge was holding.

It was already virtually an object of legend.

In the legends, there was a wondrous tree that bore fruit equivalent to the spiritual root of the heavens and earth.

It grew flowers once every thousand years, bore fruits three thousand years later, saw the fruits ripen after another three thousand years.

In ten thousand years, only thirty fruits would have been produced.

Those who were fortunate enough to get a whiff could live till the age of three hundred and sixty. Those who ate one could live till the age of forty-seven thousand.

The fruits that were produced would fall upon encountering metal, shrivel upon encountering wood, liquidify upon encountering water, burn up upon encountering fire, sink deep in upon encountering earth.

This fruit was known as the ginseng fruit, being a famed spiritual fruit from the Journey to the West.
