I.. Am God?

Chapter 107 The Truth About The Herb

Some of the people who heard what he said that unfortunately had very vivid imaginations couldn't take it anymore and vomited violently.

Isabelle also heard it and her pale complexion paled even more.

"Sigh. Based on your aura, you are a full-pledged beast hunter and killed hundreds and thousands of beasts, but you still can't stomach the sight of a human bloodbath. But something seems strange that I simply can't point my finger at." Matthias narrowed his eyes as he gazed at the pale woman.

Feeling the gaze of a killer, she shuddered irrepressibly. Although her soul says it's safe, seeing the deaths that he caused, she was still afraid.

"Anyways, shall we go back to the plant? I want it." He spoke.

Out of fear, Isabelle extended her hand that was holding on to the Forest Eucalyptus quickly. "Here."

Matthias smiled at her and gently took the plant from her hand, "Thank you." He replied kindly.

When she heard him answer, she was suddenly sent to a distracted state of mind.

Seeing her reaction, Matthias smiled. 'I had no choice but to do this. You're so pale that I think you'll faint any minute now.' He thought.

He actually secretly sneaked a sliver of laws and dao in his voice to make it sound extremely comforting to the person. As a result, Isabelle became enchanted with his voice and was calmed down. Her complexion came back to normal and the tension inside her subsided. The utter fear was gone like a popped bubble.

"By the way, do you know what that plant is?" She asked.

"It's a Forest Eucalyptus." He answered with a straight face.

"I told you, It's not." She replied stubbornly.

"It's a Forest Eucalyptus, but not a ten-year old one." When she heard what he said, she furrowed her brows, "Then, how old is it? I know the distinctive difference of age marks on Forest Eucalyptuses, and this looks definitely like a 10-year old one."

"Just like the Dao, as you get closer to the peak, the simpler its aura is. It's the same as the spirit plants." Matthias replied, "Specifically, this plant is near its culmination, a nine hundred thousand years old Forest Eucalyptus."

When he dropped the bomb, it was as if someone pressed the mute button. Although it was already silent before because of the massacre, it was even more silent now that they heard the shocking truth.

"T-That is a nine hundred thousand years old Forest Eucalyptus?!"

"Impossible! No plant could last that long without being dug out by a supreme expert!"

Seeing their reactions as expected, Matthias willed his power and ordered upon the will of the Dao and laws.

From the Forest Eucalyptus, brown smog suddenly rose up and enveloped the plant like amber. The plant shone with a bright brown hue and released an incredibly archaic aura. The aura was also releasing a very rich earthen energy that livened the whole commerce.

From the walls, plants bloomed. Inside the shelves, herbs danced as if it rained. Cultivators that concentrated in the Earth Element broke through just by feeling the plant's aura. Old men who were one step towards the grave looked as if they went seventy years younger.

Then, another bizarre thing happened. From the center of the plant rose an ethereal spirit that looked like a great sage. A long white beard grew from his chin and his wistful eyes gazed upon the mortals with indifference.

Matthias looked at the spirit and slightly nodded in respect. In response, the great sage bowed with veneration. Knowing what he was planning to display, he looked at the ethereal great sage knowingly. With understanding, the great sage backed down.

"A Peak Archaic Sage Dao Soul!" One of the cultivators exclaimed.

"What?!" The others gasped in alarm.

"A Dao Soul is a guarantee to be made once an item close to the natural dao reaches a thousand years old. A Sage Dao Soul can only be seen in a ten thousand years old item close to the dao. An Archaic Sage Dao Soul is strictly to be seen in a five hundred thousand years old item." The cultivator that spoke before explained.

"Once possessing this kind of Dao Soul, it is a full guarantee that this esteemed item is truly a nine hundred thousand years old item!"

Matthias then said to the spirit, "I will not harm you. I am only going to extract 'that' out of you."

The spirit nodded in understanding, "As you wish."

Matthias closed his eyes and secretly sent his will into the plant and into the root and absorbed the Creation Energy inside.

After he absorbed it, Matthias noticeably lightened up, his pores opened, and his hair elongated even more.

The reason why the plant reached the age of nine hundred thousand years old was not really because it stayed in this world for nine hundred thousand years, but because of the creation energy inside. With the help of the energy within it and without it being able to control the energy, the energy moved rampant inside the plant and developed it from a three-year old one to what it is today.

Matthias opened his eyes and smiled. He sent his energy inside the plant and added some power of the dao inside the plant. The Dao Soul's eyes enlarged with shock.

Matthias sent a telepathic message to the soul, which made the great sage nod knowingly.

He looked at Isabelle and gave her the plant. She accepted it with shock, "What do you mean by this, gentleman?" She asked in confusion.

"I only needed an extra energy that isn't necessary to exist inside the plant and nothing else." Matthias replied, "The plant's medicinal powers are untouched."

"Why do you even want to sell this? You know that it is extraordinary. Why not use it yourself?" Matthias asked her.

Suddenly, Isabelle became sad. "It's because of my brother. He needs help."

Matthias' eyebrow rose, "Then, bring me to him. It is fate that we met, and I ought to give at least some help or advice."

Isabelle's eyes lit up, "If you can recognise a nine hundred thousand years old spirit plant, then you are definitely at least a doctor or an alchemist! Please, come with me!"
