Raiding the Herb Garden

As soon as he entered the Herb Garden, Xia Ping was greeted by a rich fragrance. The dense medicinal aura washed over him, lifting his spirits. It was as if every cell in his body was trembling.

He felt the astral energy in his body replenishing dramatically, as though he were on the verge of opening another acupoint.

The tree was laden with silver fruit, which gleamed with flowing light and gave off a rich fragrance.

"That's a Silver Fruit Tree. It's a rare tree native to the Deep Sea World. It flowers once every ten years, bears fruit ten years later, and takes another ten years for the fruit to ripen. It needs a full thirty years to produce a single spirit fruit."

What?!

The Shark Demon Grandmasters stared
