Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)

Chapter 276

Perhaps because of the surrounding mountain cliffs sheltering the area, there was no breeze. As soon as they walked into the valley, they immediately felt that the air around them was a little warmer.

The valley was not large.Soon, both of them arrived at the deepest area of the valley. The area was lush, and all kinds of trees and flowers were growing there. They were flourishing, even though it was winter.

Fade Chen immediately observed all the trees and plants, looking for the Sacred Fig Tree.

As they walked through the dense vegetation, Fade carefully searched around, and tried to identify the different trees. Master Xie also looked on the other side.

But after some time, they couldn't find any trace of the Sacred Fig Tree. The situation felt strange to them.

Master Xie said, "Mr. Chen, I have done some research.The Sacred Fig Trees are generally tall and large. They often grow more than 20 meters in height. If such a large Sacred Fig Tree exists in this valley, it should be obvious.

However, we haven't found anything yet. It could be a coincidence that the wooden branches from the Sacred Fig Tree appeared at the entrance of the valley."

Hearing this, Fade couldn't help but frown. He didn't want to admit that this could be true. However, after searching for a while, he had to agree with Master Xie's assessment. There was a high chance that he was correct.

"Let's search for it again!" Fade said, and he continued to look around.

At this time, the sun had completely risen. The rays of the sun crossed the mountain ridge and shone into the valley. Suddenly, the temperature in the valley became higher, as though there were flames surrounding them. Even Master Xie, who was a highly skilled martial- artist, had a layer of sweat on his forehead.

But at this moment, Fade raised his head suddenly. He glanced at the sun in the sky, and his eyes fell on a stone wall below him.

Then, Fade walked toward the stone wall. As soon as he approached the place, he felt that the air was warmer, and he felt heat waves rushing toward him.

Fade couldn't help but feel delighted. He stamped with energy on the stone wall. Suddenly, the stone wall was split open by the huge force he exerted, and a large cavern appeared below him.

In this hollow cavern, a Sacred Fig Tree of more than ten meters high was growing luxuriantly.

The tree was flourishing with leaves and branches. Although it was not exposed to sunlight, the leaves were verdant green, which caused them to look fresh.

Fade became even more excited, because there were more than a dozen small fruits hanging on the tree. The size of the fruits were similar to the size of fingernails.

The fruits glowed brightly, and he could feel the heat emanating from them.

"The Sacred Figs, these are the Sacred Figs!" Fade said, and he jumped into the cavern with joy.

Then, Master Xie jumped in as well. He was surprised to see the huge glowing tree. It was as though he had seen a legendary holy tree.

Fade was not in a hurry to pick the Sacred Figs. Instead, he circled around the Sacred Fig Tree and observed it carefully. He had a rough understanding of the tree. It was at least five hundred years

old.

It could survive in this cavern, which was sealed by the stone wall. Fade could not help but sigh in admiration.

While Fade was marveling at the Sacred Fig Tree, his eyes traced the roots of the tree, and he was shocked again because he found that there was a crimson thread in the roots of the Sacred Fig Tree. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

This thread grew along the roots upward and crept all the way to the center of the Sacred Fig Tree's huge trunk.

"This crimson thread should be the reason of the growth of this Sacred Fig Tree," Fade thought. At the same time, he followed the roots of the tree to search for the source of the thread.

Along the way, the roots ran deep into the soil below. Fade focused his inner energy on his hands and turned them into two small shovels,digging up the soil quickly. He dug all the way down along the roots of the Sacred Fig Tree.

With a clinking sound, Fade felt that he had reached a solid object. He began to dig carefully along the edge of that object.

Soon, a red stone in the size of a fist was dug out by Fade. The stone was smooth and bright, as though it was transparent.

It seemed like there was crimson liquid flowing inside the stone. Moreover, heat was emanating from the red stone.

"This, this is the Strengthening Ruby,"Fade said. Looking at the stone in his hand, Fade couldn't help but be dumbfounded. An extremely surprised expression appeared on his face.

The Strengthening Ruby was a type of stone which was fiery in nature. Under the surface of the stone was a layer of scorching liquid, which was the essence of the Strengthening Ruby.

At this moment, Fade finally understood why this Sacred Fig Tree could grew so luxuriantly without sunlight. It was due to this Strengthening Ruby.

The thin, crimson line on the roots of the Sacred Fig Tree was the sign that it was absorbing the energy of the Strengthening Ruby.

The Sacred Figs from the Sacred Fig Tree which had absorbed the energy of the Strengthening Ruby would be more powerful in effect. Even for Fade, they would be considered valuable treasures.

In addition to this fact, the discovery of the Strengthening Ruby also gave Fade a huge surprise.

Prior to all this, Fade had brought back the young shoots of the Nine Leaf Ice Flower from the back of the Cloud Clan mountain.

The Nine Leaf Ice Flower was one of the nine cold objects that Fade needed. But because the growth of the Nine Leaf Ice Flower depended on a special environment, it needed to be cultivated in a burning environment. Then its growth would be stimulated.

Therefore, after Fade dug up the Nine Leaf Ice Flower, he always utilized warm jade with his "Burning Power of Nine Suns" to maintain the growth of the Flower.

Although the effects were acceptable, the growth of the Flower was obviously not as effective, if one compares with the growth utilizing fiery objects of nature.

Therefore, the Strengthening Ruby could be buried in the ground to provide a fiery environment for the growth of the Nine Leaf Ice Flower.

At the thought of this, Fade felt joy in his heart. He didn't expect to find the Strengthening Ruby coincidentally while he was searching for the Sacred Figs. It was like killing two birds with one stone.

He kept the Strengthening Ruby and refilled the hole he had dug with soil. Then, Fade's eyes fell on the Sacred Fig Tree.

The Sacred Fig Tree was more than ten meters high and had luxuriant branches, but there were only a dozen Sacred Figs. Each Fig was considered the essence of the Tree. Therefore, it was very difficult for the tree to bear each of them.

Carefully picking up a total of sixteen Sacred Figs, Fade did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he smashed the stone wall above the Sacred Fig Tree, allowing the sunlight to enter and facilitate the growth of the Tree.

After all, the Strengthening Ruby had been dug out. If there was no sunlight, the Sacred Fig Tree would probably wither and die.

After smashing the stone wall, Fade obtained a few tiny jade stones and buried them around the roots of the Sacred Fig Tree. He injected several rays of energy into them, and this created a simple way for the tree to absorb the energy it required for growth.

After that, Fade and Master Xie jumped out from the cavern.
